Gai Jun caught up with the team, and Gai Yin stepped forward and said: "Uncle Xiaozu, I ordered the attack without waiting for your order..." Gai Jun waved his hand to signal him to stop talking. The Han army's infantry and cavalry fought together, and the cavalry commander
He has a certain degree of autonomy. Of course, it is still inappropriate for a cavalry commander to make the decision without permission. If it were someone else, Gai Jun, he might be beaten. Gai Yin is his nephew, and he is like a compatriot, so there is no need.
Juqu Yuan'an looked disapproving, feeling that Gai Yin's words were unnecessary. The battlefield opportunity was fleeting. It was precisely because they attacked at the right time that they quickly defeated the Qiang front army, leaving the opponent's rear army completely unresponsive.
Come over, and then rush into the enemy's formation, causing chaos in the opponent, and then defeat them. If the coach cannot see the fleeting opportunity or gives the order late, giving the opponent enough time to deal with the arrangement, the battle may not be what it will be.
Woolen cloth.
Gai Jun turned his gaze to the north, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Follow me, even if I chase you to the ends of the earth, I will kill these wolves."
"Long live!……"
"The Han army is mighty—the Han army is mighty—"
The Han army raised their troops and shouted loudly, the sound resounding throughout the heaven and earth.
Under the guidance of countless flags, thousands of cavalry were like an unstoppable steel torrent, rolling northward.
Someone sang a line on the road: "Fight in the south of the city, die in the north of Guo. If you die in the wild, you can eat it without being buried." This is the first line in "War in the south of the city", which means that after the war, the earth was littered with corpses.
, flocks of crows crow, fighting to peck at these unburied warriors. The poet wanted to express the tragedy of the battlefield, but now when this Han soldier sings it, there is a different kind of heroism, a kind of people who die fighting for the country without any regrets.
Heroic.
Thousands of Han soldiers on horseback then sang loudly, saying: "Fight in the south of the city, die in the north of Guo, and the dead in the wild will not be buried, but the crow can be eaten. Call me a crow, and you will be a guest! The dead in the wild will not be buried, and the carrion will be taken away. The water is deep and fierce.
The bulrushes are agitated; the owl cavalry dies in battle, the rogue horse wanders and cries..."
The Han army pursued them while singing loudly. They cut meat when they were hungry and ate snow when they were thirsty. They pursued for more than 200 miles day and night, and fought their way out of Beidi County and into Hudi.
Unwilling to be defeated, the Qiang people lurked on the road where the Han army must pass, and when the Han army passed by, they all rushed out. The Han soldiers showed no fear and fought hard. Half a quarter of an hour later, three thousand reinforcements came from a distance, roaring.
Joining the battle, it turned out that Gai Jun had been prepared for a long time. He deliberately divided the cavalry into front and rear in order to ensure that there were backup plans in case of an attack. The two sides fought fiercely for several hours, and the Qiang people left thousands of corpses behind. Once again,
He fled in panic.
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear. I share the same enemy with you..."
More than half of the Han cavalry are Hu people. Even the Han people come from different places. Due to different languages and customs, frictions and serious crowd fighting are inevitable on weekdays. However, after this battle, there is no longer any barrier between Han people and Hu people.
Treat each other sincerely as your brother, a brother who can live and die together.
After continuous marching and a big battle, the soldiers had reached their limit. Gai Jun did not continue to pursue recklessly. There was no shortage of food. However, there was no tent in the ice and snow. Gai Jun had to order people to cut down trees and make fires. The soldiers had a hot meal.
After drinking the broth, he sat in front of the fire wearing several fur robes and took a nap.
In the afternoon, the Han army regained its energy and headed north again. Within 200 miles, they caught up with the exhausted Qiang people. When they saw the Han army from a distance, the Qiang people dispersed without a fight.
There is always a way to avoid starving to death by killing horses and eating meat, or even chewing tree bark and drinking snow. However, the Qiang people cannot solve the problem of sleeping. How far can such people run? Gai Junjun captured more than 4,000 people after a ten-mile pursuit.
Gai Jun immediately summoned Manu, the Xiaoqiang chieftain, and said to him: "These four thousand people are temporarily under your control. I don't need you to take them to join the battle immediately, but... we must ensure that they do not escape. Can this be done?"
"
"Yes." This was not a temporary return, it was clearly a free gift. Manu burst into tears of gratitude and vowed to go through fire and water for Gai Jun no matter what.
Gai Jun gave away several Qiang chiefs with just one sentence, but they did not dare to say a word. One of the young chiefs said: "Luodiao has a long history. The soldiers from heaven have come from afar to work hard. My village is not far ahead. Please
Go in and take a rest.”
"Yes." Gai Jun said he understood. He knew the distribution of Qiang villages south of Shegu Mountain. He naturally knew that there was a large Qiang village nearby, which was on the only way for the Han army to pass. This was also
The reason why the Qiang chief confessed, otherwise he was so smart? Let the Han army enter and harm his village.
Gai Jun's army gathered the Qiang people and surrendered their troops while hurrying on their way, arriving at the Qiang village before sunset.
Seeing the Han army approaching slowly, the Qiang people in the Qiang village were frightened and trembling. It was not until the Qiang chief came forward that they opened the gate tremblingly.
Gai Jun asked: "Are there any escaped Qiang people in the village?"
The Qiang chief asked the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper shook his head like a rattle and muttered Qiang dialect. After hearing this, the Qiang chief said to Gai Jun: "No. He said there were too many Qiang people passing by and he didn't dare to
Open the door."
Gai Jun nodded and divided the Han army into two groups, one for eating and one for sleeping. Gai Jun was so exhausted that he didn't even eat. He entered the Qiang chief's room and fell asleep. He slept until dawn the next day and didn't wake up until dawn.
He had slept too much and his head felt heavy. He rubbed his forehead and sat up, shouting: "Prince..."
"Brother-in-law..." Bian Bing opened the door and came in.
"Nothing happened?" Gai Jun rubbed his head hard, wishing he could crush it before he felt better.
"Everything is fine."
"Go and prepare some food for me."
"Okay." Bian Bing said before going out: "The Qiang chief of our village has been waiting outside for two hours..."
Gai Jun thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in."
Bian Bingcai went out, and the Qiang chief walked in. Pang De and other personal guards held the hilts of their swords and refused to leave. If the other party dared to act rashly, he would definitely not be able to escape the end of blood splattering within five steps.
Whether he could save his life or not depended on this. The Qiang chief simply knelt down with a plop and cried bitterly: "Loudiao Changshi, please spare my life. I was forced by King Xianling Yeli."
Gai Jun sneered and said: "Haha, do you think I am a three-year-old child? At this time, you still fight with me and force you? Since it is force, why don't you run away on the battlefield instead of running away in front of your house? There is no way to escape.
Just surrender?"
The Qiang chief knelt to Gai Jun's feet, hugged his thigh and cried: "The fallen eagle has a long history... As long as you spare my life, I will be your most loyal hunting dog."
Gai Jun saw it funny. There were many Ling Qiang warriors and many cowards in the past, but this was the first time he saw such a coward.
Pang De and others were afraid that he would suddenly become violent, so they dragged him away.
Gai Jun pondered for a moment and said, "Ling Ming, go and call me here." I was the commander of Ma Teng's camp when he was a military lord. The two deserters he killed last year were under his command. I knew my shame and became brave, and I defeated them.
During the course of the Yellow Turbans, he repeatedly made military exploits and was one of the best performers among Xian Ling Qiang.
"The fallen eagle has a long history..." I suppressed my joy and bowed. Yesterday, Manu was assigned four thousand warriors, which made all the Xianling people jealous. This time Gai Jun came to him, most likely to reward him.
.
Gai Jun pointed at me and said to the Qiang chief: "Give half of your people to him."
I lowered my head deeply. He was afraid that Gai Jun would see him losing his composure. There are two thousand Luo people in this village, half of which are Qianluo. From now on, he is no longer an ordinary person, but a respected one.
Little Qiang chieftain.
"This... is good." The Qiang chief's face turned green, but in order to survive, he cut off his flesh.
