This area of the Western Region is full of deserts, and there are oases everywhere. There are rolling mountains, and there are endless flat roads. When you are under them and look up at the stars, you will feel even more insignificant.
At this moment, on the vast official road, a long and winding team was rushing quickly.
In the army, there are dragon flags of the Ming Dynasty.
This is the team escorting food.
When Lu Xuan arrived at Qiancheng, grain and grass from the rear were continuously transported forward. Some of the grain from Yiwu City, Jiaohe City and other places were directly transferred to the front line. There was also some grain that Xun Yu dispatched from the rear.
When Lu Xuan arrived at Qiancheng, Xun Yu had already left Dunhuang and settled in Jiaohe City.
Xun Yu followed Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan opened up the territory at the front, while Xun Yu was responsible for managing the rear, adjusting personnel in the rear, adjusting the official structure of the rear, sorting out land, population, and allocating grain, grass, and equipment to the front.
Although Xun Yu did not go to the front line to participate in the battle, his role is unquestionable.
Among the grain and fodder teams, many were common people from the Western Regions, and some were from Dunhuang. These people were responsible for escorting grain and fodder, and at the same time they would also consume part of the grain and fodder along the way, so transporting grain and fodder to the Western Regions was not that easy.
After all, there are no waterways here.
As noon approached, Huang Zhong, who was in charge of escorting the grain and grass, ordered to stop advancing and the team rested in place to ensure the physical strength of all the people escorting the grain and grass.
Huang Zhong was accompanied by Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Xiahou Dun, and Zhang Liao, and the other army consisted of Guan Yu, Zhang Ren, Chen Dao, and Gao Shun.
The force led by Huang Zhong was 1,500 cavalry, while the force led by Guan Yu was about 1,200 men.
All are the most elite cavalry.
However, Huang Zhong led a team to escort the grain and grass. There were more than a thousand infantrymen in the entire grain team responsible for escorting the grain and grass.
Huang Zhong sat down, looked at Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao, and said with a smile: "We are all out to fight. Do you think the Tianzhu people will send troops to raid the grain road?"
"Definitely!"
Zhang Liao said firmly: "There is a lot of food and grass being escorted this time, and no sentries are arranged to block the news, nor are Tianzhu's sentries prohibited from inquiring. After King Chaori gets the news, he will definitely come. Even if King Chaori knows, our The grain road is protected by soldiers, and there will definitely be a raid."
Ma Chao said with murderous intent: "It's best if these Tianzhu people come, otherwise, we won't have a chance to kill them."
Xiahou Dun said: "We are currently in the middle and front of the grain road. Once Tianzhu's cavalry comes, we will definitely be able to respond quickly. I have only one request. I hope that the opponent's combat effectiveness is stronger and there are more people. Don't be The embroidered pillows look useless."
Zhao Yun smiled and said: "General Xiahou, I think your wish may be in vain. The people of Tianzhu have always looked at things but not at all."
Chatting one by one, very relaxed.
Although the weather is getting colder and colder now, everyone is enjoying it.
Boom!!
Suddenly, the sound of rapid horse hooves was heard in the distance.
Huang Zhong had been waiting for a long time. The moment he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats, he followed the sound and immediately found the rapid sound of horse hoofbeats coming from the left front of the road. Huang Zhong lay directly on the ground, felt it carefully for a while, and then followed. Said: "The number of cavalry on the other side should not exceed 3,000. Organize the army and prepare for war!"
The order was issued, and Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Ma Chao and Xiahou Dun all mounted their horses.
Everyone is ready.
The people who were escorting the grain were already putting carts and carts of grain together to form a defensive line with the help of carriages. At the same time, all the people retreated behind the carriages.
As for the more than a thousand escorting soldiers, they quickly organized the people to escape and arranged the long carriages along the way.
After all this was done, a thousand infantrymen stood ready to protect the rations.
Huang Zhong was riding on horseback, holding a knife, and looked in the direction of the sound of horse hooves in front of him. In a blink of an eye, the distance was getting closer, and he saw a mighty cavalry appearing on the official road ahead.
The leader of this cavalry group was none other than Tiwedi.
Tiwedi's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
The people of the Ming Dynasty were so cruel that Tiweidi also felt aggrieved. Previously, Niandala led people to charge into the battle, but in the end they were defeated. This also made Tiweidi feel unhappy, thinking that Niandala had failed His Majesty the King.
This important task has disgraced the people of Tianzhu.
Tiwedi held a spear in his hand with a sharp tip. He pointed in the direction of the food road ahead and said loudly: "Soldiers, today is the time for us to serve His Majesty the King. Our Tianzhu soldiers are invincible. In the past, we
The people of the Kushan Empire will be frightened by the killing. Today, we will kill the people of the Ming Empire. We will destroy their granaries first, and then destroy the Ming Empire."
"kill!"
Tiwedi shouted loudly.
Shouts soared into the sky, one after another.
"kill!"
Two thousand Tianzhu cavalry shouted together.
The style of each general represents the style of a different army.
Tiwidi is extremely fierce, and so are the soldiers under his command. Tiwidi and Nyandala have different concepts. Nyandala is a Kshatriya and does not pay much attention to the lower-level generals. However, Tiwidi is a Brahmin.
, his background is better than Niandala, but he pays more attention to the people below, because he knows very well that the combat effectiveness of the cavalry lies in the cavalry below.
Therefore, Tiwedi showed a little patience, and the two thousand cavalry roared, looking like they were ready to die in service.
Under the leadership of Tiwidi, two thousand cavalry charged forward.
Boom!!
The sound of horse hooves became increasingly deafening.
The distance is getting closer.
Huang Zhong saw that the distance was getting closer. When the distance between the two sides was less than 300 steps, although Huang Zhong could not see clearly the situation of the other party. However, Huang Zhong could not wait any longer. He glanced at Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao, and ordered
Said: "Kill!"
At the command, everyone galloped forward.
Although there are only 1,500 cavalry, these 1,500 people are five elite cavalry groups, led by five people respectively.
Five men charged with their own cavalry.
On the battlefield, only Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and Xiahou Dun were seen pulling away from each other, as if five swords were thrust out, and they rushed directly towards the incoming Tianzhu cavalry.
When Tiwedi saw this scene, he sneered and said sarcastically: "To attack separately, you are simply seeking death. It is taboo to separate the troops. This time, I will defeat them one by one."
"Send the order, everyone gathers behind me, follows my direction, and concentrates on defeating the Ming Dynasty's cavalry."
"Sprint with me and kill!"
Tiwedi gave the order.
The flags shook and the scattered cavalry gradually adjusted their formations, with the main force concentrated around Tiwedi. In front of Tiwedi, his bodyguard cavalry rushed forward one by one to ensure that Tiwedi
of safety.
The charge was extremely swift and fierce.
The two sides met in an instant.
The direction of Tiwidi was towards Huang Zhong. When his personal guards met Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong was furious, his hair and beard were flying, and he slashed down with the long knife in his hand.
Killed Tiwedi's bodyguard with one blow.
Blood splattered and Tianzhu Bing fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
After Huang Zhong slashed with his sword, he raised his long sword and slashed horizontally, killing one of Tiwedi's personal guards again. He struck one after another, and in the blink of an eye, Tiwedi's personal guards were killed.
Huang Zhong was like a tiger descending the mountain, constantly advancing.
No one can stop it at all.
Tiweidi was shocked, because the veteran in front of him looked old, but in fact, he was extremely ferocious and unreasonably strong. Tiweidi turned his horse's head and avoided the direction of Huang Zhong,
Then go in the direction of Ma Chao.
Tiweidi thought to himself, Huang Zhong, a veteran, is very powerful, but young people like Ma Chao are not so powerful, right?
Tiwedi led his men to attack, and his cavalry encountered Ma Chao.
The tiger-headed golden spear thrust out in the air, flashing a little cold light, and then the cavalrymen fell to the ground one after another. All of them were shot through the armor and pierced the heart, killing each other with one blow.
Ma Chao's bravery is incredible.
Tiwedi's heart skipped a beat, how could such a person be so fierce?
He couldn't fight against Ma Chao. He turned his eyes and looked at the other Ming cavalry. He saw that these people were either using guns or knives. Each one of them was like a god of death, with spears and knives killing.
, Tianzhu soldiers are simply invincible.
Tiwidi felt that there should be little difference in the combat effectiveness of the cavalry on both sides. However, these generals were too strong, and each of them was considered a peerless warrior in terms of combat effectiveness.
Tiwedi suddenly trembled and felt like crying.
It's too awful!
He came alone with two thousand cavalry, but was attacked so fiercely.
He was completely pressed against his hand and rubbed.
Not even a little bit of strength to resist.
Was the Ming Dynasty so fierce?
Are there so many murderers?
At this moment, Tiwedi knew that he had to mobilize reinforcements. Only by mobilizing more soldiers could he fight further. Otherwise, if the delay continued, all the soldiers under his command would be killed and injured, and even the subsequent arrival of Xingli would not be able to turn the tide.
"Blow the horn and notify Singer to come for reinforcements."
Tiwedi quickly ordered.
He hid among the cavalry and tried his best to organize soldiers to resist.
At this moment, Tiwedi saw the grain and grass escorted by the people of the Ming Dynasty not far away, and saw a carriage carrying grain and grass. However, he could not get closer because once he left the cavalry team, he would be targeted by the Ming Dynasty's cavalry.
,The consequences could be disastrous.
Tiwidi could only resist with all his strength, delaying as much time as possible, waiting for Xingli to come to the rescue.
