Soldiers come to the world

_up;

The long knives are like a forest, and the sharp saber is shining with a gloomy cold light in the twilight. Behind the dense knives are heavy armored infantry like a copper wall. In the middle of the air, use the solid power of the earth to counterattack the impact of the cavalry. This is the most effective way to deal with the impact of the cavalry. The strength of the cavalry's counterattack is proportional to the force of their impact.

The horses of the Qianghu cavalry rushed towards them, but what they were facing was a dense forest of knives that shone like death. Amidst the screams of despair, the Qianghu cavalry crashed into the forest of knives, their limbs were shattered and bloody The corpses of people and horses piled up in all directions, and the first wave of huge impact was resisted by the powerful sword forest. The cavalry behind couldn't rein in their horses, and they collided one after another, causing the Qianghu cavalry to be in chaos.

In the chaos, the heavy armored infantry suddenly stood up, swung their long knives, and pushed forward like a wall, and the dense sabers slashed at the cavalry

This is a battle with almost no suspense. The heavy armored infantry has rich combat experience and has undergone the most rigorous night combat training.

The heavy armored infantry showed great power, and killed the enemy's wailing all over the field, and the ground was covered with broken corpses. The whole world was filled with a pungent bloody smell. In just half an hour, more than half of the [-] Qiang and Hu cavalry were killed and injured. Terrified, morale quickly collapsed.

Nangong Xin turned around and fled the battlefield first, followed by thousands of cavalry fleeing desperately like an avalanche. In the chaos, they collided and trampled each other. Soldiers kept falling off their horses and were trampled into mud by the horses behind.

The Qianghu cavalry ran for twenty miles in one breath, still in shock. Just as they passed through a forest, there was a sound of clappers in the woods, followed by random arrows. The she fell to the ground, and the Qianghu cavalry who had just stopped were like frightened birds, and they were so frightened that they beat their horses and galloped desperately again.

The forest was full of flames, and an army came out. It was the three thousand troops led by Wang Ping. They intercepted the Qianghu enemy army from behind. Wang Ping rushed out first, and happened to meet Nangong Xin. The enemy general swung his knife and killed him.

Wang Ping's war horse was fast, and with a loud shout, it rushed to Nan Gongxin's eyes. The saber slashed towards Nan Gongxin's neck. Nan Gongxin was caught off guard. Only then fell off the horse.

Wang Ping saw that the enemy army had no fighting spirit at all, he turned his head and shouted: "Kill me, reward with the head!"

The soldiers ran even harder, yelling and rushing forward. The cavalrymen were picked off with their spears, and then their heads were chopped off with one knife, tied around their waists, and they went to hunt down the next one.

In this day's battle, the Qiang and Hu cavalry suffered a tragic blow. In the end, only less than 3000 of the [-] cavalry fled back to Zhangye. Even the main general Nangong Xin died in the hands of Wang Ping.

At dawn, the Han army marched slowly into Wuwei City. Looking at this familiar city, Ma Chao was filled with emotion. After so many years away, he came back again.

"Ma Dudu!" Not far away, someone called him.

Ma Chao looked back, but saw that it was Du Ji, the prefect of Wuwei County. When he was in Xiliang, Du Ji happened to come from Hedong County to take office. It has been four or five years.

Ma Chao got off his horse and walked forward in a calm manner, "Prefect Du, please don't call me Dudu Ma. I am General Han Zhenxi now."

"That's still called General Ma!" Du Ji said with a smile: "I am very grateful to General Ma for coming to rescue in time and saving Wuwei County. I represent Wuwei County with 20 people."

Before he could finish speaking, Ma Chao waved his hand, "Perhaps Governor Du doesn't know! Guan Long already belongs to the Han Kingdom. This is the imperial court's decision. There is no need for the 20 Wuwei people to thank me."

"I know, I just thank you habitually."

Du Ji smiled, took out a roll of letters and handed them to Ma Chao, "This is a letter from His Highness the King of Han to the General. It was delivered last night when General Wang Ping was leaving the city."

Ma Chao was startled, he quickly took the letter, and asked a little puzzled: "Where did this letter come from?"

"It was sent from the direction of Zhangye County, General Ma, think about why?"

Ma Chao thought for a while, and suddenly realized that the messenger came from Dadou Bagu, and His Highness is now on the plateau. He opened the letter, read it roughly, nodded slowly, put the letter away, and asked Du Ji: " His Highness the King of Han said in the letter that if Prefect Du is willing to stay, he can continue to serve as prefect of Wuwei County."

Du Ji smiled faintly, "I want to know, what about Jiuquan County?"

Ma Chao glanced at Li Ji, the prefect next to him, and said, "His Royal Highness appointed Li Juncheng as the prefect of Jiuquan County."

Du Ji and Li Ji glanced at each other, and they were immediately overjoyed. This meant that Liu Jing would still recover Jiuquan and Zhangye. He saluted together, and Du Ji said, "Ma Chao, please tell Zhou Mu that Du Ji and Li Ji are willing to serve the Han Kingdom." .”

Ma Chao hurriedly replied with a smile: "The two eunuchs don't have to be polite. His Highness the King of Han said in his letter that he would recover Zhangye and Jiuquan, and completely remove Nangong Suo's influence from Zhangye. I will soon go to Zhangye, and Wuwei County will temporarily Please, two prefects."

Du Ji was a little worried and said, "I'm afraid General Ma is not strong enough."

Ma Chao smiled slightly, "There are [-] troops coming soon, so we have [-] troops, and we will also have the sharpest mysterious soldier."

...........

Dadouba Valley is an oblique passage across thousands of miles of Qilian Mountains. It starts from Zhangye County in the north and goes to the north of the West Sea in the south. It is about [-] miles long. It is of great strategic value and is also the key for the Silk Road to enter the Hexi Corridor from Hehuang aisle.

Different from the several terminal south passages connecting Hanzhong and Guanzhong, the valley roads in Dadouba Valley are wide, ranging from several miles to more than ten miles wide, full of various plateau plants and thousands of wild animals, especially at high altitudes. High, unpredictable climate, this road is also full of danger.

In particular, the presence of wild wolves has posed a huge threat to the passing business travelers. The scattered bones in the grass are the concrete manifestation of this threat.

This morning, a cavalry team composed of 5000 people was marching in the Dadouba Valley. They were the Han cavalry returning from the Hequ training. Gu went straight into the Hexi Corridor, and Liu Jing sent someone to inform Ma Chao at the same time, ordering him to attack Zhangye in the north and cooperate with him from the south.

It can be said that Liu Jing led the cavalry to the plateau to train troops, to a certain extent, to pass through the Dadouba Valley and form a coercive force against the Qiang Hu from the north. As early as the agreement with Cao Cao on the ownership of Guanlong, Liu Jing Jing has already decided to uproot the Qianghu forces in the Hexi Corridor. It is impossible for him to accept Nangongsuo's occupation of Zhangye and Jiuquan.

The reason why we still negotiated with Nangong Suo to deal with Dihu was just a way to delay the attack. In order to prevent Qiang and Di from joining forces, after completely destroying Yang Wanwan and Song Jian, the time to regain the Hexi Corridor gradually matured. The reason why he laughed off Jiang Wei's report was not that he didn't pay attention to it, but that he already had plans and arrangements.

"Your Highness!"

A team of scout cavalry rushed forward, interrupting Liu Jing's train of thought. He reined in his horse and asked, "What happened?"

"We captured two Qianghu patrols, they have important information."

The scout chief waved his hand, and the soldiers escorted the two Qiang Hu cavalry up. Liu Jing glanced at them and asked, "What information do you have?"

The two Qiang and Hu cavalrymen couldn't speak Chinese, so they stammered, and a guard translated: "Your Highness, they said that there was a big battle just a few days ago, and their cavalry encountered the Han army in Wuwei County. It ended up being a defeat.”

Liu Jing suddenly became interested, and said: "Let them explain in detail."

The two Qiang and Hu cavalrymen recounted the information they knew in detail. Only then did Liu Jing learn about the battle that took place in Wuwei County. The main force of the Han army is now in Wuwei County, not Jincheng County. Liu Jing immediately turned to Fazheng's car. run.

These few days, Fazheng felt a little unwell due to the fatigue of the journey. He was marching in a carriage. When he heard that the King of Han was looking for him, he hurriedly pulled himself together, opened the window and said with an apologetic smile, "I have caused trouble for Your Highness."

Seeing that his mood was very bad, Liu Jing quickly said: "The military commander doesn't need to get up, take a good rest, but there is something I want to discuss with the military teacher."

"Your Highness, it's okay to say."

Liu Jing recounted the confession of the Qiang and Hu cavalry soldiers, and finally said: "From the current situation, the Qiang people have suffered a defeat in Wuwei. The military adviser thinks that Nan Gongsuo's next step is to seek peace and avoid war, or will he go all out to fight? "

Fazheng pondered for a moment and said: "I think the key is to look at the internal pressure of the Qiang people. If the internal pressure of the Qiang people is extremely strong, the possibility of Nangong asking for peace will increase. Judging from the information we know so far, Nangong Suo used force to maintain his rule among the Qiang people and cruelly exploited the remaining Qiang tribes. His defeat in Wuwei should shake his rule, so I think Nangong Suo is more likely to seek peace. "

Liu Jing nodded, and asked again: "I also feel that he is more likely to sue for peace, so the military adviser thinks we should accept the summation? Or continue to go all out to eradicate Nangong Suo?"

Fazheng laughed, "Didn't Your Highness do a good job before? First stabilize Nangongsuo, deal with the Longxi Di people, then put the noose around Nangongsuo's neck, and tighten it little by little, buying time for the Han army And fighter jets, why not continue now?"

Liu Jing laughed, Fazheng's thoughts coincided with his, he is now going to complete the deployment of the military division encirclement and suppression, before that, he must first stabilize Nangong Suo.

He cupped his hands and saluted, "I understand what to do, military commander, please rest well."

Liu Jing turned his horse's head and ran to the front of the team

In the afternoon of the next day, the cavalry of the Han army walked out of Dadouba Valley and entered Zhangye County. As the terrain lowered, the soldiers' minds suddenly became refreshed and their spirits became full.

They have entered the Hexi Corridor. As far as they can see, there are large grasslands everywhere, and there are herds of cattle, sheep and horses everywhere. If there is still some farmland in Wuwei County, then Zhangye County is dominated by pastures. Here It was the most important ranch in the Han Dynasty and the main source of war horses in the Han Dynasty.

With the weakening of the imperial court at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty's control over Hexi gradually weakened, and it was successively occupied by separatist forces such as Dong Zhuo, Ma Teng, and Han Sui. Five years ago, Cao Cao defeated Ma Chao and Han Sui in Guanzhong and wiped out Xiliang. Army, the Hexi Corridor had a vacancy in power, and the Qiang Hu took advantage of it and gradually occupied the two counties of Jiuquan and Zhangye.

However, due to the strategic importance of the Hexi Corridor, it is destined that this power-empty situation will not last long. Even if Liu Jing's army does not come, Cao Jun will also enter Hexi and restore the Central Plains Dynasty's rule over Hexi.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Liu Jing ordered: "Pass on my order, camp here!"

At this moment, a team of scouts brought several elderly Qiang people to the camp of the Han army.
