Cui Su, Lu Yan, Zhe Bu Lun, Chen Dudu and others were so angry that they couldn't argue with each other.
"So what if we capture Liangzhou?" Lu Yan said irritably: "Why don't we let Zhang Huaishen and the Ganzhou Uighurs get an advantage? This dispatch of troops is, I say, reckless."
"Why did Lu Lun say this?" Chen Dudu said: "A few days ago, there was a rumor in the streets of Liangzhou that the Shao bandits were going to send troops to conquer the tribes in Liangzhou and organize households to equalize the people. Can this be true?"
"I don't know where the news came from, but it may not be false." Zhe Bulun agreed: "Shao Thief is extremely treacherous. He likes to organize households to unite the people and pay tribute to them. We farm and graze cattle in the counties of Liangzhou.
I feel so uncomfortable, why do I need more people to scrape my head? The military governors in the Central Plains are all cruel and greedy people."
"Then how do you plan to attack? There are more than 3,000 cavalry and more than 1,000 Liangzhou soldiers in the city. With more than 10,000 of us, how can we attack?" Lu Yan was still unconvinced and said, "We are coming to Liangzhou this time.
, Big mistake! So what if the Shao thief took over the city? If he dares to go to all the ministries and organize the people, we will fight him. In the vast wilderness of Liangzhou, we are the masters."
He subconsciously ignored the Tubo Liugu Tribe, which had been in love and fighting with each other for many years, but their strength was inferior to that of Qi Mo, and they were indeed not the masters of Liangzhou. This could be seen from the size of the territory occupied by both sides.
"Liangzhou is in ruins. A large section of the city wall has collapsed and has not yet been repaired. It can still be attacked."
"However, the palace city and Cangcheng are intact, and the Guzang County is also intact. If Shao's bandit soldiers and horses guard the palace city, how will they fight?"
"Why don't we go to the city first, plunder a lot and then retreat? Anyway, we can't just run away in vain after sending out troops."
"Just do it."
"That's all we can do."
Lu Yan looked at it and saw that there were actually four or five leaders of the families who supported entering the city first, and he was speechless.
This battle must be fought! Everyone despises the imperial power in Liangzhou, and even ignores the more than 3,000 newly arrived soldiers. Morale cannot be discouraged, this is the only way!
The plan has been decided. The cattle and sheep will be killed naturally, and the soldiers will have a meal and drink to improve their morale and prepare for entering the city.
At this time, in the southeast of Liangzhou, a team of more than 13,000 people had traveled more than a hundred miles away.
There is a dilapidated inn here, which is also a beacon.
There is an example in the imperial court: "In case of emergency on the border, build a platform... Use real money to hit the target... If there are invaders, they will be set on fire, and they will be reported to each other."
To put it simply, smoke is burned during the day and fire is raised at night. When the first beacon is sent out, the second beacon will respond.
If there are few thieves, raise two beacons; if there are many, raise three beacons; if the force is strong, raise four beacons. Every thirty miles, there will be a beacon commander and a deputy. The beacons near the border may even be built into a city.
Liangzhou's beacon and post system, except for those near the state and county towns, are basically abandoned. As a result, messengers must carry their own water and spare horses, otherwise it will be difficult to deliver messages quickly and effectively.
At this time, Fu Cunshen listened to the report of his subordinates with a solemn expression: Youqi was found more than ten miles away, suspected to be Liangzhou Aimo.
"Why don't you arrest someone and come back for questioning?" Fu Cunzhen frowned and asked.
"We only have about ten cavalry, and the opponent also has about ten people. I'm not sure we can keep them all." The person who replied was a cavalry officer under Yang Can, the commander of the Tianzhu Army.
Yang Can is the son of Yang Yue. His elder brother Yang Yi serves as Youyi envoy in the Jinglue Army.
Fu Cun looked outside. The people and prisoners were either sitting on the ground or leaning on the car, with tired faces.
Tens of thousands of people!
If they were attacked by the Mo Mo army, they would disperse immediately and become their slaves.
Were the land reclamation households recruited from Guanzhong and escorted all the way here just to give them to the Momo people? This joke is not funny at all.
Some people may say that it is just a wandering horse that the Momo people habitually go out to explore, and it cannot mean anything. But you, who has a heavy responsibility, dare to take a gamble?
"Have Momo Youqi discovered you?" Fu Cunjian asked.
"No." The scout reported: "But the bandit army should be more than one wandering horse. With so many people, horses, horses, and camels, it is difficult for us to hide and hide."
Fu Cunshen did not correct the scout's name for the Momo people, but fell into deep thought.
This world is like this sometimes. If you are unlucky and encounter it, then you have to face it.
Is it easy to escort people to Liangzhou?
Relax! There has been no rebellion for more than ten years in the late Qi Dynasty, and Liangzhou's strength is also very weak. The credit was originally for nothing, but something happened unexpectedly.
They set off from Xinquan Military City, which was only 150 miles away from Liangzhou City. Theoretically, they were about to enter the pastures or villages of the Ammo people. The further they went, the greater the risk of being discovered.
The snowflakes fell gently and danced lightly in the north wind.
Fu Cunshen drew his horizontal sword. The commander-in-chief has been kind to me, and I can only repay it with death today.
At the foot of Liangzhou City, the shouts of killing became louder and louder than ever.
A large group of Momo people rushed in along the collapsed city wall. The ground was rugged and uneven, with sections and half of the remaining wall foundations everywhere, covered with shrubs and weeds, and mixed with broken bricks and rocks.
A row of spears were fired at them, and more than ten of the Momo people who were unable to stand fell down on the spot.
A hail of arrows shot out, and seven or eight more Shunyi troops fell.
Li Duo, wearing two layers of heavy armor and holding a thick-backed machete, rushed into the enemy formation with a strange smile.
The enemy's swords and guns struck him, making a harsh scraping sound. He was unaware of it, and the machete fell and chopped off a head. A thief rushed towards him with a spear, but he tripped over a broken brick and stabbed the head.
.Li Duo laughed and slashed with another knife. The soldiers were bleeding profusely, and their screams almost pierced the sky.
"Eating too much human flesh is enough to get you drunk..." An Xiuxiu muttered, picked up his bow and arrow, and flew out an arrow, hitting a bandit leader in the throat.
The man groaned twice and fell weakly behind Li Duo.
Li Duo continued to charge forward, and in a moment, two more dead souls were struck by the sword.
"Bring Du Yuhou back, don't fucking charge again." He Wei led dozens of people forward, and with the forward momentum of Li Duo and his soldiers, they broke into the enemy's formation and defeated Li Duo, who was disheveled in the battle.
Duo was pulled back.
"Is this battle worthy of Prince Lingwu?" Li Duo was panting like an ox and said with red eyes: "Damn it, you look down on us on weekdays! I won't say it, but I know what you are thinking? Why don't you just eat human flesh?
? Look down on me, let you look down on me!"
He Wei spat, and Lao Li went crazy again!
The Ammo people retreated from one wave of offensives and quickly organized a second wave. Dozens of armored warriors rushed at the front, followed by more than 300 ordinary soldiers, who came up to kill menacingly.
An Xiuxiu shot an arrow outside the city, making a roaring sound that broke through the sky.
The city gate suddenly opened, and hundreds of Shatuo knights rode out and plunged straight into the back of the enemy.
The cavalrymen who were waiting in full formation also mounted their horses and rushed forward with shouts.
The bloody battle started again.
The old god Weng Gao was sitting in the government office, and the staff kept reporting on the latest battle situation.
The more he listened, the more surprised Weng Gao was. The Shunyi army, with more than 3,000 people, was quite capable of fighting! They had been fighting for almost a whole day, but they actually refused to retreat and refused to let the Mo Mo people get in.
Is Qin Zongquan’s Cai thief so brave?
But this is fine, let them fight each other. The harder they fight, the more people die, the better it is for them. Anyway, Liangzhou soldiers can just defend Guzang County. With more than a thousand soldiers, they can recruit some to avoid them.
The people in the city are strong and strong, so there should be no major problems.
Li Mingzhen and Zhang Hongxin stood at the top of the city, watching the battle between the Shunyi Army and the Mo Mo from a distance, and they were quite shocked.
Fumo has always claimed to be the lord of Liangzhou, but this time he has finally succeeded.
The Shunyi army was much more brave than the Yun soldiers who entered Liangzhou in the name of "preventing autumn".
In the land of Liangzhou, who is the real master may be decided after this war is over.
Anyway, it’s unlikely that it was the strategy of their Liangzhou soldiers, Weng Pushe, well, it’s embarrassing to think about it!
There was a lot of wailing in the camp.
To be honest, there were many wars with the Six Valleys of Tubo, and many people died, but how could there be so many casualties in one day?
Are all wars in the Central Plains so bloody?
Cui Su also hesitated a little. He had just gone to the wounded soldier camp and had a few words with a wounded soldier named Cui You. As a result, the person disappeared while he was talking.
Today, the Cui family and the Lu family took turns to fight, each suffering between three and four hundred casualties. A member of the Tuyuhun tribe was even crippled, and they were clamoring to withdraw their troops.
The Shuofang army in the city is like a common poisonous insect on the grassland. It seems that it can be easily crushed to death, but when you really wait for it, it stings you so hard that it gives you a pain that goes deep into your bones.
There will be another fight tomorrow! Cui Su sighed heavily.
A huge price has been paid, and unless a huge change occurs, the battle will have to continue until one party completely surrenders.
Lead-gray clouds covered the sky, and Liangzhou ushered in another rain and snow at the end of February.
Snowflakes fell on the Liangzhou city wall, on the edge of the ditch, on the farmland, and also on the large group of knights with braided hair and fur, who were rapidly advancing northward.
The leader is tall and majestic.
Behind him, six flags were raised high. Under the battle flags, thousands of horses galloped, filling the entire wilderness.
"There is a tree in the garden, and there is a cicada on it. The cicada is sitting high up, screaming sadly and drinking dew, but I don't know that the praying mantis is behind it."
