The last three kingdoms

Chapter 347
The weather in Longxi was relatively cold in February, but it was nothing to Gesse and the Qiang chiefs. Several people were sitting on the ground around a bonfire, discussing the military situation.

Except for Gosai, all the chiefs of the tribes were sitting here, but they were all respectful and submissive to Gosai. It was under the order of the Xiqiang King that he led the various tribes of the Qiang people to attack Longxi. His status seemed to be higher than that of other chiefs.

Since Shaodang Qiang defeated Xianling Qiang and unified the various tribes of Western Qiang, Shaodang Qiang has always been in the leadership position in Western Qiang, let alone a figure of the Four King Kong level like Ge Sai, even if he is Shaodang Qiang The headman is also arrogant and domineering to other tribes of the Western Qiang.

Of course, Gesai inherited such a lineage. Among the tribes of the Western Qiang, the Shaodang Qiang has an outstanding status. For all the Qiang, the Shaodang Qiang is the object of their worship.This time Gosse summoned the chiefs of other tribes, which was called a discussion, but it was actually an occasion for Gosse to issue orders.

Obviously, Gosse was very annoyed by what happened during the day today. A young and incompetent member of the Shu army could resist his mace, which is unimaginable in the land of Xiqiang , The Four Great Vajras of the Western Qiang, that is definitely not in vain.

"Has any of you ever heard who the Han general who led the army is?" Gosse asked with a dark face.

He didn't know, and the other chiefs were naturally ignorant. In terms of obtaining information on the battlefield, the Shu army is obviously a head above the Qiang people. Who.The chiefs were silent, and no one spoke.

Gosse was obviously dissatisfied with the attitude of the chiefs, he snorted coldly, and said, "What a bunch of trash! It's not the king of Xiqiang raising you, what's the use?"

Gosse has a hot temper, and beating and scolding his subordinates is a common thing, and if he is really upset, it is even common to lose his head.

A chief of a smaller tribe said cautiously: "I report to the commander, the little one has a way to break the Han army."

Gosse was overjoyed when he heard that Longxi didn't fight down, but attracted more powerful reinforcements. Of course, Gosse was very troubled. Thinking about a good plan to defeat the enemy, even if he tried to think about it, he couldn't think of a reason. Since someone offered a plan, Gosse was very excited. "Speak quickly!"

The little chief said: "Commander, I have seen that the Han soldiers who came to reinforce us today were all exhausted after a long march. The battle fought before dusk was the end of their strength. Tonight, the commander can lead the army to attack , the Han army is definitely unprepared, and the enemy general can be captured in one battle, and the enemy army will be defeated."

Gosse laughed loudly and said: "Wonderful, it really is a clever plan. Those barbarians never thought that our army would sneak up on them at night, come here, prepare troops, and attack the enemy's camp at midnight tonight!"

An elderly chief said with some concern: "Commander, there may be an ambush by the enemy, so you have to be careful."

Gosse said disapprovingly: "The Han barbarians only have such a small number of troops. Even if they set up an ambush, they can get there. With 2 troops, this commander will definitely hit the vital point and kill him personally."

So he refused to listen to the persuasion, and Gesai personally ordered [-] Qiang cavalry. Under the night like water, he left the Qiang camp and attacked the Shu army ten miles away.

The camp of the Shu army was very quiet. It seemed that everyone had fallen into a deep sleep. From the outside of the camp, there was almost no one in sight except for the tents.

Gesai led the army to approach Shuzhai quietly. Seeing the situation in the village, Gesai secretly rejoiced, saying: "It's really the sheep god helping me!" Immediately led the army and rushed into the Shu camp.

After entering the Shu camp, there was still no movement in the Shu camp, which surprised Gosse a little. Even though he was reckless by nature, he was not the kind of stunned young man. The Qiang soldiers had already killed in the Shu camp. Even if the soldiers in the battalion were too fast asleep, it was impossible for them to remain silent for a while.

Gosse immediately ordered the Qiang soldiers to open the tents of the Shu army to have a look. Those Qiang soldiers immediately stepped forward and smashed several tents to pieces with their knives, only to find that there was no one in the tents.

"Report to Commander-in-Chief, there is no trace of a single person in the entire enemy camp." The Qiang soldiers immediately reported to Gosse.

Only at this time did Gosse realize that he had been fooled, and he hurriedly ordered the Qiang soldiers to withdraw from the empty camp.

As soon as Gosse turned around, there were bursts of shouts of killing from outside the camp, and the Shu army ambushing on the periphery suddenly came out, and rockets shot over in the air. Those in the Shu camp The tent haystacks were originally flammable things, and the Shu army specially piled up a lot of firewood and other flammable things. The rockets fell one after another, landed on the tent firewood stacks, and immediately ignited. A raging fire broke out, one of Gosse's troops was trapped in the camp by the fire, and the other was blocked outside the camp.

The cavalry of the Shu army launched an attack on the Qiang soldiers who were blocked outside the camp. The Qiang soldiers were ambushed.

Gosai rushed left and right in the fireworks, but the fire was too fierce, many Qiang soldiers were buried in the sea of ​​flames, and Gosai's cloak was ignited by the fire. Fortunately, there were a few Qiang soldiers around him to shoot him out , which saved his life.But now Gosse is in a terrible mess, even his eyebrows and beard are burnt to pieces.

As soon as he escaped from the sea of ​​flames, a young general with a white armor and a silver spear stabbed at Gosse and shouted, "Don't leave, thief!"

Gosse saw clearly that it was the young general he had fought with on the battlefield during the day, and at night, the two sides fought evenly, but at this moment Gosse was unwilling to fight and did not dare to fight with him , dragged the mace backwards, and retreated in defeat.

In the chaos, Gosse did not know how many troops were lost. After breaking out of the encirclement, he inspected the remnants, and it turned out to be [-]% off. Most of the Qiang soldiers were either buried in the flames or died under the bows and arrows of the Shu army.

Even Gosse couldn't figure out why this battle was so indiscriminately defeated. Thinking of the little chieftain who encouraged him to send troops, Gosse gritted his teeth with hatred and ordered him to be brought up.

However, the little chief can no longer be found, and it is unknown whether he died in the rebellion or whether he has been a prisoner of the Shu army.

Now Gosse could only return to his camp dejectedly. As soon as he walked outside the camp gate, he heard shouts and countless Shu soldiers rushed out. One of them was Deng Pu, who sneered at Gosse: "Dazhai has been captured by our army, you traitors, surrender quickly!"

Gosse was so shocked that his face turned pale. He really stole the chicken and lost the rice, and even lost the camp.
