A five-foot broadsword from the Han Dynasty, more than 110 centimeters in length.
------
The Han infantry relied on their spears and large shields to resist the attack of the opponent's cavalry. The companions in the back row rushed up with five-foot swords. They saw a flash of light. The first few Qiang warriors were torn apart, and their blood shot into the sky. The swords and spears were huge.
The shield then protected the swordsmen, who waited for the Qiang cavalry to remain relatively still, then raised their swords again, invincible. The Han army's formations were layered on top of each other, like a wall.
The Han army fought happily in front, and the archers in the rear were not to be outdone. They fired alternately, and the arrows rained down, forming dark clouds one after another. They built a wall of arrows among the Qiang cavalry to ensure that the opponent could not completely charge.
The Qiang cavalry, which had slowed down, stood in front of the Han army's square formation composed of spears, shields, and swords. They were like fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered. The offensive of the Han army's swords was too fierce and cruel, and anyone who stood in the way would be broken into pieces.
, no one is perfect, the brave Qiang people were beaten back steadily, and at the same time, it also hindered the charge of the companions behind, which formed a vicious circle...
"Press forward...press forward...press the Qiang people so hard that they can't move, advance or retreat...kill..." Huang Zhong leaped over the dead corpses on the ground, fought bravely, hacked and slashed with his halberd, killing three people, and chopped down another with his halberd.
A war horse chopped off the heads of several people, and no one was his enemy. It was as if the ancient god of war was resurrected, roaming the battlefield without any opponent.
"clang!"
Huang Zhong took two steps back, looking slightly stunned. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the short and stocky Qiang man sitting on the horse opposite him. This was the first time he was blocked by someone since the war began.
"My name is..."
"Kill..." Huang Zhongcai didn't bother to hear the other party's name. He pulled out the big halberd, like a poisonous dragon coming out of its hole, and stabbed straight into the opponent's chest. The short and sturdy Qiang man looked angry, as if he blamed the other party for not knowing how to lift, and used his knife to deflect the edge of the halberd.
The head will be cut off.
In the midst of the lightning and flint, Huang Zhong regained control of the halberd, turned it over, and the halberd branch rushed down, hitting the opponent's head. The short and sturdy Qiang man looked frightened, and hurriedly tilted his head, and the halberd branch pierced into his shoulder.
Flying sideways, blood splattered. The short and sturdy Qiang man screamed in pain and was turned over and fell from his horse.
"Kill..." Huang Zhong was about to kill his opponent. Several cavalry suddenly arrived, and all their swords and spears came down. Huang Zhong pierced one person's throat with his halberd. The Qiang man was really brave. His throat was gurgling with blood bubbles, and he rolled his eyes with one hand.
He held the head of the halberd and refused to let go. Huang Zhong smiled disdainfully, secretly mocking the opponent for not overestimating his own capabilities. He raised his arm and easily pulled out the halberd. Blood sputtered from the opponent's neck, and his right hand was cut off by the halberd branch. Huang Zhong stood up and took the courage to do so.
, the big halberd turned and swung, sweeping away the head of one knight, with a "clang" sound. Although the other knight blocked Huang Zhong's killing move, he was knocked off his horse and suffered the fate of being torn into pieces by the Han army. The last one
His liver and gallbladder were split, and his spear-holding arm was so stiff that he couldn't move it. His throat felt cold and he lost consciousness.
Huang Zhong killed four people in a row without changing his expression. He rode up again, but was blocked by the Han army. Huang Zhong didn't care about the fighting around him, and stared directly at the short and sturdy Qiang people, as if looking at a dead man.
"You dare to look down on me? I'll kill you!" The stocky Qiang man's face turned purple, and he roared and raised his knife to kill. His left shoulder was disabled, and the strength of the knife he held in one hand was far inferior to that of Huang Zhong. After a few bangs, his head fell.
Leaving the item and rolling to the ground.
The nearby Qiang people were frightened and furious, screaming and swarming in, surrounding Huang Zhong and slashing and poking him.
"Quick... grab the head, grab the head, that's a big shot of the Qiang people..." Huang Zhong immediately understood that the person he killed must be one of the Qiang leaders, and shouted to Buqu while resisting the strong Qiang wind.
Attacking like a torrential rain, he was hurriedly attacked by knives and spears. The knife was resisted by the fish scale armor, and the spear was held by Huang Zhong after it penetrated a minute. The big halberd flew, sweeping away four or five people, and the front was completely empty.
Hearing Huang Zhong's cry, the tribe rushed forward. In the melee, the Qiang chieftain's head was crushed by someone, and his original appearance could no longer be seen clearly.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Gai Jun immediately stretched out his arms lazily and said with a chuckle: "Can't we hold on anymore? I thought the Qiang people would hold on a little longer."
Tao Qian stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I have always heard that the Qiang people are brave and good at fighting. When I saw them today, I felt that they had gained a reputation in vain."
Zhao Qi said angrily: "If it weren't for the traitors and eunuchs who ruined the country, how could there be Qiang chaos?"
Gai Jun had no intention of continuing this meaningless talk, and was considering whether the cavalry should be dispatched. Tao Qian, who had been in officialdom for decades and was a seasoned veteran who knew how to protect himself, also did not answer the conversation.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Huh?" Gai Jun looked to the right in surprise. Four thousand Han cavalrymen swarmed towards the flanks of the Qiang people like a swarm of sharks smelling blood. "I haven't given the order yet... but the timing was chosen well. Look.
It is indeed beneficial to lead the army alone, and my uncle has made a lot of progress...".
The Han infantry in front was enough for the Qiang people to bear. As soon as the Han cavalry joined in, the Qiang people's formation immediately collapsed and they turned around and ran back in embarrassment.
Xianling King Yeli was stunned. He never expected that the forward 20,000 cavalry would be defeated so quickly. Facing the questioning eyes of the Qiang chiefs, he felt that all the blood was rushing to his face, almost ready to be cooked. The new Xianling dynasty? Just now
His passionate declaration now seems as ridiculous as a joke.
The cavalry on the right wing chased after the Qiang people, slashed at their backs, and then charged into the Qiang rear army. The left wing cavalry rushed towards the side of the Qiang rear army like an arrow from a string.
The heavy-bearded Qiang chief Lingdang and the puffy Qiang chief Bichao looked at each other, without hesitation, and ran away with his tribe. The little Qiang chiefs who were afraid of Gai Jun saw their actions and imitated them, and then those who were half-hearted
More than half of the 30,000 to 40,000 Qiang rear troops fled at once. The thinking of the Qiang chiefs is very simple. The Han people will shit and pee on our heads at most, and they are still the masters of the party. King Xianling is different.
, especially an ambitious and extremely powerful king, that would only harm their interests and make them continue to use their tribal resources to nourish the new king. The reason why they followed the uprising in the first place was that they had strong soldiers and horses in the wild, and secondly,
They were taking advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty and the lack of military strength in the western frontier. Afterwards, they would surrender. As long as they no longer caused trouble, the Han Dynasty would generally not settle accounts with these generals like them.
Counting those who fled back, the Qiang people had less than 20,000 cavalry left. They were in a state of embarrassment and panic. Before the Han army's infantry could engage in the battle, they were defeated by the 8,000 cavalrymen on the left and right flanks of the Han army. They seized the road.
And escape.
Gai Jun commanded tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry for the first time. He felt uncomfortable all the time in the central army. Now that the Qiang people were defeated, they were running away. Finally, he was itchy. To Zhao Qi, Tao Qian said: "Zhao Changshi,
Tao Canjun, please command the infantry to collect the loot and stationed in Niyang City, while I go to hunt down the Qiang people."
"How can this be done..."
"How can the commander of an army..."
Before the two of them could finish talking, Gai Jun had already disappeared with hundreds of horses.);.
