King Cheriji of the Western Qiang has maintained a good relationship with the Central Plains since the Cao Cao period. Moreover, Cao Cao paid tribute every year. He has a civil and military service under his command, which is very famous in the local area. Wen is the prime minister, named Yadan, Wu is Yue
Marshal Ji, the envoy of Wei State came to Qiang State with some gold and silver and letters. He first went to meet Prime Minister Yadan and gave some gifts to explain his intention to ask for help. Yadan took him to see the king and wrote the letters.
After presenting the gift, Torigi read the letter and discussed it with everyone.
Yadan suggested: "We have a good relationship with Wei State, and Wei State comes to pay tribute every year. Now the Wei army's governor is here to ask for help and said that we should send troops to help."
Cheriji followed this suggestion and appointed Marshal Yadan and Yueji to lead 150,000 Qiang soldiers, all carrying bows, arrows, guns, knives, thorns, flying hammers and other weapons, as well as some chariots, wrapped nails with iron leaves and loaded them.
The food and military weapons were dispatched, camels and carriages, and became iron chariot soldiers. The two resigned as kings and directly attacked Xiping Pass with their troops. Han Zhen, the general guarding the pass, immediately sent someone to take him.
The letter was sent to notify Kong Ming.
After hearing this, Kong Ming was very surprised and asked everyone: "Who can you retreat to the Qiang army?"
Zhang Bao and Guan Xing responded: "Let's go!"
Kong Ming said: "It's okay for you two to go, but you're not familiar with the journey." After saying that, he called Ma Dai and said: "You are familiar with the situation in the Qiang Kingdom and have lived there for a long time. You can serve as a guide.
.” So he raised 50,000 elite troops and handed them over to Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.
Guan Xing and Zhang Bao left with their troops. After a few days, they soon encountered Qiang soldiers. Guan Xing first took a hundred cavalry to the hillside to see, and only saw Qiang soldiers connected by iron chariots.
You can build a village wherever you go, and the car is filled with weapons, like a moving city.
Guan Xing observed for a long time and had no plans to break the enemy. After returning to the camp, he discussed with Zhang Bao and Ma Dai. Ma Dai said, "Wait until we observe it face to face, and think about it, see if there are any other solutions."
On the second day, the troops were divided into three groups, Guan Xing was in the middle, Zhang Bao was on the left, Ma Dai was on the right, and three groups were advancing. In the Qiang formation, Marshal Yueji held an iron hammer in his hand, hung a treasure bow on his waist, and jumped his horse.
When he came out, he seemed very excited. After all, he hadn't been on the battlefield for a long time. Guan Xingzhao three troops advanced. Suddenly, he saw the Qiang soldiers on both sides. The center released an iron cart, like a tide, and the bows and arrows were fired. The Shu army had never had
Having encountered such a tactic, there was no sign of warning, and without saying hello, he shot arrows at close range. Ma Dai and Zhang Bao hurriedly retreated with their troops. Guan Xing's army was surrounded by Qiang soldiers and went straight to the northwest corner.
.
Guan Xing was trapped in the core, rushing left and right, unable to escape, the iron cart narrowed the encirclement, just like a city, the first Shu army could not look after each other, Guan Xing looked for a road in the valley and left, until evening, only saw a cluster
The soap flag flocked in. It was a Qiang general, holding a big hammer in his hand and shouted: "Where are you leaving the young general! I am Marshal Yueji, Qiang."
Guan Xing speeded up and ran forward, trying his best to whip the horse. Suddenly, he encountered a stream where the horse could not cross it, so he could only turn around and fight Yue Ji alone. Because the other party looked terrifying, Guan Xing's psychological defense line
He was defeated and his martial arts was not good, so he could not resist it. He could only escape into the stream. He was rushed by Yue Ji, who was chasing him from behind. He was hit by the hammer. Guan Xing hurriedly dodged, but the hammer hit the horse.
The horse was in pain and fell into the stream. Guan Xing was also thrown out by the horse and fell into the water.
Suddenly, Yue Ji and his horse fell into the water behind him. Guan Xing stood up from the stream and watched what happened. He saw a red shadow suddenly appear on the shore. It was extremely powerful and turned the Qiang Kingdom.
The soldiers retreated, Guan Xing brought a knife to chop Yueji. He secretly swam away. Guan Xing got the Yueji horse, led it to the shore, rectified the horse rope, and brought the Qinglong Yanyue sword on the horse. Go and see the powerful general, and still
In front of chasing the Qiang army, Guan Xing thought to himself, who was here to save my life, I must meet him and repay his kindness.
When the distance was approaching, Guan Xing finally vaguely saw the general in the clouds and mist. His face was like a heavy date, his eyebrows were like a lying silkworm, his green robe and golden armor, his green dragon sword, his riding a red rabbit horse, and his hands were beautiful beard. This is clear
It's his father Guan Yu.
Guan Xing was very surprised. Suddenly, Guan Yu pointed his finger to the southeast and said, "My son can leave this road quickly. I will protect you back to the camp." After that, he disappeared.
Guan Xing received a prompt and hurriedly walked southeast. In the middle of the night, a team of people suddenly arrived. The person in charge was Zhang Bao, and asked, "Have you ever seen your second uncle Guan Yu?"
Guan Xing was very surprised after hearing this and said, "How did you know?"
Reply: "I was chased by the Qiang Iron Army very much. Suddenly, my second uncle Guan Yu descended from the sky and frightened the Qiang soldiers and horses, and pointed: "You can save my son from this road!" So I took the soldiers with me
The horse rushed over and happened to meet you.
Guan Xing talked about how General Hongying helped him escape. The two sighed and returned to the camp together. Ma Dai went to pick him up and said to them: "We have no way to fight the soldiers here, I will defend the camp,
You two will report to the Prime Minister quickly to see what method can be used to defeat the enemy?" So Guan Xing and Zhang Bao went to Prime Minister Kong Ming overnight to explain the situation at the scene.
Kong Ming called Zhao Yun and Wei Yan to ambush with a team of men, then ordered 30,000 troops, Jiang Wei, Zhang Ji, Guan Xing, and Zhang Bao, and came to Ma Dai's camp to rest in person. The next day,
Going to the high place to watch the situation, I saw the iron army running in an endless stream, with people and horses flying back and forth.
Kong Ming just smiled and said, "This is actually not difficult." He attracted Ma Dai and Zhang Yi to give the plan.
After the two left, they shouted Jiang Wei again, preparing to give him some guidance in person, and then asked, "Do you know how to break the chariot?"
Jiang Wei said: "The soldiers of Qiang relied on brute force to fight, so how could they know the plan?"
Kong Ming smiled and said, "You know what I want. Today, the clouds are covered with clouds and the wind is blowing hard. According to this situation, it will naturally snow tomorrow, and our strategy can be implemented." So Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were both allowed to
He took his troops to ambush and sent Jiang Wei to fight with his troops. As long as the iron army came, he would retreat back. The entrance of the camp was so empty, putting some flags and not adding troops.
Everything is ready.
It was December, and it was indeed snowing. Jiang Wei brought his troops to fight. Yue Ji brought the iron army out. Jiang Wei retreated while fighting. Qiang troops chased him to the camp. Jiang Wei left behind the camp.
The Qiang soldiers watched outside the camp and heard the sound of piano playing inside. There were flags erected on all sides, and hurried back to report.
