Chapter 340 Tigers of the Western Regions ([-]) Second Change
If another person said this, Dian Wei would definitely not dump him.

But Lu Zhi was different. Even Dian Wei, who occupied a special position in Dong Pi's family, had to obey him respectfully.

However, everyone knows He Qi's ability.

Dian Wei got He Qi's help, which is more conducive to the control of the begging army.

If Dian Wei's begging army is a group of mad tigers, then the presence of He Qi will undoubtedly make these mad tigers rational.

Such a beggar army must be even more terrifying!

With a smile on his face, Dong Bi just quietly looked at He Qi from the side without saying a word.

Time flies, time flies...

When he met He Qi, he was just a teenager. In the blink of an eye, seven years have passed, how time flies.

******
In the first month, the Qihuo Army sent troops from Dongqiemi and launched a fierce attack on Wusun State.

At the same time, Zang Ba also sent troops from the move, entered the territory of the Northern Huns along the Ulungu River, and together with Chen Dao's stepping army, contained the troops of the Northern Huns; Hu Chuquan's fierce attack.

In Queyin City, Xu Rong, the new prefect of Wuwei, gathered his troops and made a gesture of sending troops to Liangzhou.

That is to say, within one or two months, the entire Northwest, from Liangzhou to the Western Regions, all started to move.

Ma Teng ordered Jia He to guard Li Zu, and Guo Xian and Chen Bing to guard the front line of Quan Pavilion and Qin Pavilion.

At the end of the first year of Xingping, Su Gu, who was defeated by Zhang Lu and retreated from Hanzhong to Wudu under the order of Guo Bang, became restless.

In the same month, Liu Yu joined forces with Lu Bu to attack outside Wuruan Pass and defeated the two generals Gao Lan Wen Chou.

The situation looked very chaotic. The flames of war gradually spread from Guanzhong to Kanto, and it became more and more intense.

In mid-February, the snow in the Western Regions has not yet melted.

Dong Bi quietly dispatched troops from the mountain country... no, it should be called the mountain county, bypassing Yuli along the Kongque River, and went deep into the territory of Kucha.

He did not bring many soldiers and horses.

In addition to the five hundred trolls, only two thousand and five hundred new troops were led.

The equipment of this new army is very peculiar. It is mainly made of rattan leather armor. The horse also wears a set of horse armor made of vines and cowhide tannin. , extremely lightweight.

Compared with the trolls, this cavalry army can be said to be completely different.

There is no horse lance, and all are equipped with eight-foot-long Han'an knives.The handle is three feet long, the blade is five feet one inch long, and three fingers wide, with two sides open.There was a mistake in the edge of the knife. On one side of the edge, a row of sawtooth-like edges were created.

No matter how hard the armor is, as long as it is locked by the sawtooth, it can be torn apart with a click.

The Han'an Knife combines the characteristics of the horizontal knife and the horse-cutting knife, and was named by Liu Bian himself. A total of [-] knives have been made.

In addition to this new army, Liu Bian's old guards were equipped with [-] Han'an knives.

Even Qu Yi's Beiwei army had to delay equipment.As soon as this batch of Han'an knives came out, the eyes of all the generals turned red.

In addition to the Han'an knife, the new army is equipped with Liannu just built by general Zuoying.

The crossbow arrows are made of fine iron, a specialty of the Western Regions.Due to the extensive use of coal, the steelmaking technology in the future has been greatly improved.It vaguely reproduces the hemp steel technology invented by Zheng Ma back then, and the new steel is called Xiping Iron.

According to Ma Jun's introduction: The reason why Zhengma can create hemp steel depends largely on the role of coal.Due to the heating of the furnace, the steel can be further quenched.It's just that Zheng Ma couldn't explain the reason clearly, so that after leaving the Western Regions, Zheng Ma had nowhere to look for coal, which caused the Ma Steel technology to be lost in the Central Plains.

The crossbow bolts made of Xiping iron are about a foot long.

The flat arrows of ordinary arrows were changed to triangular arrow clusters, which took up one-third of the length of the steel crossbow.

There are blood grooves on the arrow clusters, which have very strong penetrating power.

And thanks to the joining of the Gan clan in Wunanshan, after providing a lot of valuable advice, the range of the ballista was increased to fifty paces.This is due to the small size of the ballista, otherwise the range of the ballista could reach seventy steps.

Dong Bi didn't understand the difference in the structure of the crossbow machine.

But one thing he knew was that the extra twenty paces of range were enough to make this new army spread across the world without anyone being able to defeat it.

Each knight has five arrow boxes in his pocket.

Each arrow box can hold fifteen steel crossbows, and the installation process is much more convenient than the previous crossbow machine.

This is a brand new team, coming and going like the wind, with strong attack power.

Dong Bi named it: Troll Yuanrong... On the whole, it belongs to a branch of trolls, but its nature is completely different.

At the end of the year, when this new army appeared in front of everyone, the eyes of Huang Zhong and others turned green.

Even a fool can see the power of such a team.I am afraid that apart from the troll heavy equipment, it will belong to the Yuan Rong army.

Hua Xiong rushed out immediately.

"Han Sheng, it's wrong for you to do this. When you were in charge of the Youyi Army, the Tabai Army, and the Beggar Army, did I, Hua Xiong, jump out and compete with you? Now that the Yuanrong Army is newly built, you are ashamed to fight with me. grab it?"

Thinking about it, after arriving in Zhangye, everyone has a division of labor, only Hua Xiong has nothing to do so far.

Huang Zhong almost scolded all eight generations of Hua Xiong's ancestors.

You still have the nerve to say that it wasn't that you didn't grab it back then, it was that you couldn't grab it...

But no matter what, it was always Huang Zhong and others who were wronged.He could only watch helplessly as Hua Xiong became the chief general of the Yuan Rong Army.

To be honest, Dong Bi only had three people in mind for the candidates for the main general of the Yuan Rong Army.

One is Dianwei, one is Shamoke, and the third is Huaxiong.Dian Wei is now in charge of the begging army, and Samo Ke is far away in Wuling Mountain.The only candidate was Hua Xiong.Not because of anything else, but because of Hua Xiong's extreme loyalty to Dong Bi.

It's not that Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Pound Zhang He are not loyal.

But compared to Hua Xiong, the status of these four people in Dong Bi's heart is still incomparable.

In terms of seniority, Hua Xiong was the first veteran to follow Dong Zhuo; in terms of friendship, he fought side by side with Dong Bi several times, and Dong Bi was Hua Xiong's benefactor; in terms of martial arts, apart from Huang Zhongdian and Wei Ganben, Hua Xiong Can be ranked in the top ten.

Therefore, apart from Hua Xiong, Dong Bi felt that no one was suitable for the position of the leader of the Yuan Rong Army.

Apart from He Yi and He Man, Dong Pi only brought four people with him, Wu Anguo Gan Ben Wang Rong and Hua Xiong.

Now that Cheng Li had been dispatched, Gan Ben consciously assumed the role of the guard.

In spring, the wind in the Western Regions is very strong and strong.

Dong Bi reined in the horse, and set up a pergola to look into the distance.

It was almost evening, and on the plain in the distance, wisps of cooking smoke rose, apparently the locals were cooking.

Dong Bi closed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "The people in Kucha are really enthusiastic. They knew we were coming, and they even prepared a meal to greet us. After passing this plain, it will be the dry city... How about this, let's enjoy it first. How about a taste of Kucha?"

Gan Ben laughed and said, "My lord's words are very true. The general's stomach has been growling for a long time."

"The trolls are pressing the formation... Yuan Rong strikes!"

The smile on Dong Bi's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a ferocious expression.

The lion-maned beast stomped its hooves repeatedly. Since it arrived in Zhangye, it has hardly charged forward again. How can it bear it?

Already suffocated!
Following Dong Bi's long roar, the lion's mane beast dragged Dong Bi, and rushed towards the camp like the wind.

Gan Ben Wu Anguo and Wang Rong followed closely behind Dong Bi, their horses neighing violently, but only four horses gave off the galloping spirit of ten thousand horses.

Hua Xiong followed behind, reining in his horse and slashing his saber, and kept calming the restless mount.

This camp does not look small, the Yuan Rong army is suitable for field battles, the space in the camp...

Hehe, wait a little longer, when the gang of Kucha people who don't know how to live or die come out of the camp to fight, it won't be too late to launch an attack.

On this plain of Ma Pingchuan, the people of Kucha had seen the four of them long ago.

I was still wondering, why did only four people want to attack our army?If you want to be a hero, you don't have to run to die.

This Siyan Department is one of the 36 departments in Kucha.

On weekdays, he guards outside its dry city, on the one hand because of the abundance of water and grass here, and on the other hand to guard its dry city.

Among the 36 tribes in Kucha, the Siyan tribe is considered a relatively large one, with a population of about [-] and about [-] strong and elite riders.

Don't think that all 36 parts have such a large population.

The Siyan tribe used to be a royal family in the early years. Together with Zeluo and Wudie, they were called the three tribes of Kucha, accounting for about half of the population of Kucha.

People from the three tribes are mostly brave and aggressive characters.

The other 33 tribes of Kucha did not dare to compete with these three tribes.

There was no one to inform the horsemen at all, and a team of elite cavalry rushed out of the camp as early as the moment Dong Pi and the others were spotted.

This team of fine cavalry consists of about 80 to [-] people.

From a distance, he shouted, brandished his weapon and rushed towards Dong Pi and the others.

In the concept of Siyan people, there are not enough Han people. If there were not so many of them, the Western Regions would not have surrendered to the Han Dynasty at all.

Four people, with seventy or eighty people to deal with, is simply making a fuss over a molehill.I'm afraid that the Han people will turn their heads and run away when they see us.But they thought wrong, what they had to face was not four people, but four extremely ferocious beasts.

Dong Bi immediately took off the double hammers...

This is a weapon rebuilt by the general camp after Dong Bi returned to Zhangye according to the appearance of the beating drum, urn and golden hammer.

It is not as heavy as before, only about 260 catties.

The left-hand hammer weighs about 110 jin, and the right-hand hammer weighs 150 jin.In fact, there is no need to be so heavy. In Dong Bi's opinion, the weight of 260 catties is enough.What's more, the loss of eighty catties is good for him and the lion's mane beast.At least from a few attempts, the lion's mane beast can increase its speed by [-]% with a weight loss of [-] catties.

This [-]% speed is fatal on the battlefield!
In addition, this pair of drum-beating and urn golden hammers has been made according to the original style, and a little bit of change has been made.

Each sledgehammer has 36 through holes.

If the hammer speed is fast enough, the airflow will flow continuously from the hole, which can produce various strange sounds.

How powerful is it?

Dian Wei and Gan Ben had joined forces to fight against Dong Pi. It stands to reason that the combination of these two people is not inferior to the combination of Dian Wei and Sha Moke, and even stronger.But these two fierce men couldn't resist Dong Pi's thirty moves.

the reason is simple……

In Gan Ben's words: "A fight is a fight, and there are many tricks. Just the sound makes me dizzy."

Dong Bi said: "The last hammer was shattered by lightning...then this pair of hammers should be called Thunder Hammer. The right-hand hammer is called Thunder Hammer, and the left-hand hammer is called Electric Hammer... Hey, when there is thunder and lightning, who is still me?" Opponent, who can be my opponent?"

The Thunder Hammer has not seen blood since it was built.

Dong Bi had been a little impatient for a long time, but he couldn't help laughing when he saw Si Li's people rushing over.

"Wait, Ximan, let's try the power of my Thunder Hammer!"

The lion's mane beast under its crotch was running at extreme speed, and suddenly accelerated again.Before the people on the opposite side could react, Dong Bi had already arrived in front of him.The black and ugly face showed a smile, and the white teeth made one's heart chill.

"you are the first!"

The word 'a' was still echoing in Dong Bi's mouth, but suddenly there was a very sharp and piercing voice.

You can't tell exactly what the sound is, whether it is high or low, bright or deep, when countless sounds gather together, a rumbling sound is produced.The Sibian tribe instinctively raised their guns to respond, only to hear the loud bang of the clang, and with the rumbling sound, there was even more the aura of thunder and lightning.Even people and horses were smashed into blood.

Don't think that those 36 holes were made casually!
But there are the mysteries of temperament covered in it.Cai Yong and Cai Yan personally designed the Leiyin Hammer for Dong Pi, and it took half a year to fix the positions of the 36 holes.

It took another half a year to build...

Come to think of it, how long does it take to build a normal pair of hammers?
Not to mention the Thunder Hammer, more than 3000 catties of iron were wasted, and if the holes were a little off, they had to be returned to the furnace for rebuilding.

It can be said that this pair of hammers condenses the products of acoustics, mechanics, geometry and so on.

In the end, even Liu Hong was involved. In order to calculate the position of such a hole, he had to rack his brains to calculate.

Pu Yuan and his son went to battle in person, and for this pair of hammers, they had exhausted their minds.

Now, the weapon that took more than a year to build finally has a good start.

Dong Bi laughed wildly, hammering the dark clouds with his left hand, and fishing for the moon with his right hand... The two sledgehammers were used to kill all the people.Gan Ben and others followed closely behind Dong Bi, either dancing the hammer, or swinging the boring, flying the halberd and spear...

Seventy or eighty people were instantly killed by these four people and fled in all directions.

Those who can survive are only a few dozen people.Dong Bi galloped outside the camp of Si Dianbu, showing off his prestige.

This way, the end is to anger the people of the Sibian tribe.

No matter how capable and powerful you are, is it possible that you can still defeat my battalion of young and old?

With the sound of long horns, the four horsemen dispatched out.

The more people there were, the more excited Dong Bi became.Sometimes he really doubts that in this era, could it be that people have become bloodthirsty?
"Remember your grandfather's name, your grandfather's name is Dong Bi!"

A thunderous roar echoed endlessly in the sky...

Facing the hordes of Silian tribesmen who did not know how many there were, Dong Bi uttered a loud roar arrogantly.

The eight tones of the sledgehammer sounded in unison, screaming shrillly.

The lion-maned beast was even more excited and hissed to the sky, rampaging through the crowd, as if entering the land of no one.

These four people started to fight, and at the same time they consciously retreated outwards, which drew four soldiers and horses to also walk outwards.

Seeing that the sky is going to be dark!
I heard ear-piercing beeps from all around.

A cavalry army with strange armor styles came from all directions.

Before getting close, the knight set up the crossbow, and the steel crossbow flew out like raindrops with a sharp whistle that tore through the air.

Under the moonlight, steel crossbows were dotted with cold stars, just like the stars falling from the sky.

Where can the people of the Sibian tribe be able to withstand such a sudden attack.The shrill wails, screams, and the mournful cries of war horses echoed in the sky.This secret Yuan Rong army has not had time to establish its prestige in the Central Plains, but it has already become famous in the Western Regions.

After a round of arrow rain, there was only a burst of shouting: "Yuan Rong, raise the knife!"

The knights put away their crossbows in unison, and with a bang, the gleaming Han'an knives pointed straight at the enemy...
