Jia Rong also woke up from the analysis he had just now and realized that his behavior had been a little abrupt. He hurriedly told Dong Zhuo his thoughts one by one. Jia Rong was very cold. If Li Ru took the opportunity to find fault with him, he would have fallen.

Unexpectedly, Li Ru did not mean to blame Jia Rong at all, but instead admired Jia Rong even more. Li Ru was sure that Jia Rong's idea just now definitely came from himself, and was completely on the spot to respond.

Jia Rong's idea was that the Qiang soldiers in Lingzhou City did not move at present, but Li Wenhou could not take away too many troops in Lingzhou City. After defeating Yuan Pang's troops, he would only transfer part of the Qiang troops in Niyang to attack Huangfu Song. At that time, the troops in Niyang City would definitely be empty, and the Xiliang army could take this opportunity to capture Niyang County.

After hearing Jia Rong's words, Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Zhiyuan is really my good general. Mr. Li Wen, Mr. Li Wen, I will make you dare to underestimate our army."

Li Ru's eyes at Jia Rong were different from before. He used to think that Jia Rong was just a military general and had a bit of strategy. Unexpectedly, he had such a strategy in his heart, and he looked at Jia Rong with admiration.

"Lord, the matter of our army advancing to Niyang must be concealed from the Qiang army in the city." Li Ru added.

As expected, ginger was still so hot, Jia Rong thought to himself.

That night, at the first update, Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang army to leave Lingzhou quietly. The war horses wrapped their feet and bells, and quickly marched towards Niyang. The flags agreed by the Han army were still standing there, creating the illusion that the Han army was still there for the Qiang people in the city.

The next day, at midnight, a general of the Qiang soldiers in the city was surprised to see that the Han army outside the city did not make a fire to cook, and was about to lead the troops to see what was going on.

A Qiang general dissuaded: "General, no, the Han people are cunning. General Li repeatedly told him to guard the city before leaving. The general should put major matters first."

The Qiang general thought about it and felt it was right. Perhaps this was a conspiracy of the Han people. Su Wen Han people were extremely cunning. As expected, the Qiang general was shocked and said, "I almost fell into the trap of the Han army."

But in the evening, there was still no life in the Han army's positions, and the Qiang generals could no longer stay in the city.

Seeing his generals repeatedly blocking them, the Qiang general said angrily: "We Qiang people are brave and brave men. Why are we afraid of the Han army outside the city? Even if it is the conspiracy of the Han army, I can fight the Han army to the point of falling and falling."

The other Qiang generals were angry when they saw the leader, and no longer dissuaded them.

At this time, a general suggested: "General, for the sake of safety, we can send several soldiers to check it out. The general does not have to take risks at all."

The Qiang generals felt it was reasonable, so they would not be afraid of the Han army's fraud.

After the tea time, the latest news about the Han army camp was heard.

After hearing this, the Qiang generals were furious and ordered Qi horses to walk towards the Han army camp outside the city.

Seeing the Han army camp empty and flags flying, the Qiang general cursed: "The cunning Han army actually slipped away." He hurriedly sent troops to report to Li Wenhou about this.

Li Wenhou’s traces on the battlefield for a few days were erratic, sometimes left and right, sometimes east and west. However, Li Wenhou often had close contact with the guards of Bo Aiqi, the guards in various cities. Li Wenhou, who received the news, had just divided his troops with the Qiang generals from Niyang County for three days.

Who is Li Wenhou? After hearing the news, after thinking for a while, he suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly led the army to Niyang.

At this time, Dong Zhuo was leading the Xiliang army to Niyang. He received news from the Xiliang scout along the way, which further strengthened the speculations of Li Ru and Jia Rong.

A scout from the Western Liang army sent the latest news to promptly advance the Western Liang army to stop moving forward: "The Qiang cavalry with a total of about 5,000 people along the way are rushing towards their own army."

After learning the news, Dong Zhuo hurriedly found Li Ru, Jia Rong and the generals to discuss the matter.

Dong Zhuo briefly explained the news received by the scout to the generals. The situation was urgent. Dong Zhuo directly filtered out the big and rough men under his command and turned his attention to Li Ru and Jia Rong.

Li Ru stroked the not-so-long beard, looked at Jia Rong and asked, "From Zhiyuan, how should this matter be handled?" He did not realize the urgent military situation in his leisurely tone.

When the incident happened suddenly, Jia Rong was no longer polite and immediately said, "General, military advisor, this is actually a great opportunity for our army. If you grasp it well, you can take down Niyang County without any effort."

Dong Zhuo looked at Jia Rong anxiously. He didn't want his Xiliang army to sacrifice in vain. These Xiliang army were all their own family assets, and they disappeared after the battle. Li Ru's eyes also shone brightly, staring at Jia Rong tightly.

Jia Rong slowly told everyone his thoughts, and Jia Rong, who put military first in his heart, did not see Li Ru's strange look at him.

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo laughed happily and ordered Jia Rong to lead the troops and all the cavalry to arrange the battlefield, and to ensure that the Qiang people were wiped out. The generals in the Western Liang army admired Jia Rong even more. They were more martial as Hua Xiong and the military advisor of Zhishe, and they would not be able to accept it.

After Jia Rong took the order and retreated, Li Ru walked to Dong Zhuo's ear and whispered: "Lord, Jia Rong is extraordinary and has the appearance of a hero. The lord needs to be wary of one or two."

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "Wenyou, you are too worried, Zhiyuan is loyal to me." But he had a thought in his heart.

At this time, there was a canyon ahead of the army, which was the only way to Niyang. Looking at the steep cliffs on both sides, Jia Rong came up with a solution.

The Qiang generals who rushed to Niyang County did not pay attention to the surrounding situation. Five thousand cavalry marched urgently, and even the scouts were not sent. In the eyes of the Qiang generals, the victory and defeat were decided. Even the famous Han general Huangfu Song had been repelled, and there was no worries on the battlefield.

Extreme joy leads to sadness. The Qiang cavalry was walking between a cliff. Suddenly, the sound of drums sounded like thunder. Countless Han soldiers appeared above their heads, followed by a large stone descending from the sky.

The Qiang cavalry troops were immediately in chaos, and people shouted and neighed, and were injured and killed and trampled on by war horses. There were countless people who died. There was no war formation at all, and it was a mess.

The huge rocks falling from the sky divided the Qiang cavalry in minutes. Looking at the army cut off in half, the Qiang general shouted loudly: "I've been trapped, retreat quickly!"

The Qiang cavalry were running, and they were anxious and it was difficult to turn around. People shouted and neighed.

At this moment, a cavalry team of about 3,000 people rushed out from behind the Qiang people. A large flag in the cavalry team fluttered in the wind, and the big word "Hua" was written on it. It was Hua Xiong who led the three thousand Western Liang cavalry to fight against the chaos of Qiang cavalry.

How could the Qiang people resist the charge of the Western Liang cavalry in a hurry? What's more, the Qiang cavalry was revolving its team at this time. The Qiang cavalry was like infantry riding on war horses. The Han army defeated the Qiang team with just one charge, and the following was to divide and surround and harvest the lives of the Qiang cavalry.

The Western Liang army is worthy of its reputation as brave and good at fighting. The Qiang cavalry could not resist the sudden Han army. In addition, the Qiang weapons were not as good as the Han army, so they were only killed for a while. Hua Xiong, who was commanding the cavalry to charge, saw a Qiang general pointing fingers in the battlefield. He thought it was the leader of this Qiang army, so he immediately jumped on his horse and rushed forward with a sword. In just a few rounds, he killed the Qiang generals under the horse.

Once the general died, only one hour later, the other Qiang cavalry surrendered and fled.

The Qiang cavalry, blocked on the other side of the valley, was quickly defeated by the 3,000 cavalry led by Guo Si. Since the exit of the valley was where the Xiliang army was stationed, none of the Qiang cavalry on this side escaped.

After Jia Rong commanded the soldiers to clean the battlefield, he immediately ordered the cavalry in his headquarters to change into the clothes of the Qiang cavalry and rushed towards Niyang. Most of Jia Rong's cavalry themselves were Qiang people, so it was impossible for Niyang's guards to distinguish them.

The guard of Niyang saw a cavalry of about 500 people running towards the city from a distance, and the cavalry was closely following the cavalry of thousands of people. Judging from the outfits of the two cavalry, the cavalry in front was his own cavalry, and the cavalry behind was chasing Han cavalry.

When the Qiang cavalry rushed out of the Qiang cavalry and walked to a few dozen meters away from the city wall, he talked a lot to the soldiers on the city. This person was Jiang Yu, who was born in Qiang and was naturally extremely familiar with the Qiang language.

The Qiang guard in Niyang heard Jiang Yu say that the Qiang cavalry who went to support Li Wenhou was ambushed by the Han cavalry, and the casualties were severe. Jiang Yu fought to the death and led hundreds of cavalry out. Looking at Jiang Yu's face, although he was ignorant, his tall figure and skillful Qiang language were definitely not something that the Han people could imitate. The Niyang guard was without doubt that he had him and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the city gate and let the Qiang cavalry outside the city enter the city.

When the Han cavalry chased the city, they saw the open gate and the archers waiting for the city to catch up. They stopped chasing the Qiang people. After scolding for a while, they withdrew their troops. The rolling smoke and dust accompanied the Han army. The Qiang leaders on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief. The city was empty. If the Han army suddenly launched an attack, it would be troublesome.

When the guards of Niyang saw that the Qiang cavalry had entered the city, the Han cavalry also withdrew, they hurried down the city wall.

The Qiang cavalry had just walked into the city gate. The Qiang soldiers in the city were about to close the city gate when they heard a loud shout: "Take it!"

These five hundred Qiang cavalry were not as tired as they were when they were chased by the Han army just now. In a moment, they killed the Qiang soldiers guarding the city gates. The sound of swords and guns entering the flesh was endless. Who would have thought that these Qiang cavalry would attack their own people?

The Niyang Guard, who had just walked down the city wall, happened to see this scene and immediately screamed, and more and more Qiang soldiers rushed towards the city gate.

Jia Rong ordered dozens of cavalry to guard the open city gate and rushed towards the Qiang soldiers who were supporting from afar.
