"He is truly a divine general." Pang Rou sighed. "On the grassland, there are such heroic figures who should be invincible. Mr. Wang Xu, Pang Rou is ignorant and has little knowledge. Please don't blame me sir."
Wang Xu laughed loudly: "What are you talking about, General? The General is well versed in cavalry formations and tactics, and can accurately grasp the battlefield situation. This is the right way of cavalry. Only by supplementing the right with strangeness can you be invincible. Lord, there is no need to hesitate. Lead your troops to charge.
.”
Liu Zhang waved his hand, and Pang Rou, Hu Che'er and other Sichuan generals, together with Xi Fengchi, led their troops from the hillside and rushed towards the Qiang army formation.
The whole army ran like wolves and fled towards the old camp.
Wang Shuang, who had already rushed out of the formation, saw a large army coming for reinforcements, and immediately ordered his cavalry to charge back. As soon as the first few Qiang soldiers in front of him saw Wang Shuang's face, even if there were only a small group of hundreds of cavalry behind Wang Shuang, they could not do anything.
After stopping them, many of them knelt down and surrendered.
The Sichuan army and the Qingyi Qiang soldiers fought together towards the Xianling Qiang old camp. The defeated soldiers rushed forward and overwhelmed the Qiang camp outside the old camp. All the Xianling Qiang soldiers were defeated.
"Young lord, look, look, it's our soldiers and horses, there are many people, it must be the Marquis's large army." Shamoko pointed at the chaotic Qiang formation in front and said loudly.
All the barbarian troops breathed a sigh of relief. No one knew how much pressure they had endured during these times. One day missed the time agreed with Liu Zhang, and the barbarian infantry was attacked wildly by the Xianling Qiang soldiers who were eager for revenge and their eyes were red.
The Qiang stronghold was too low, and the arrows could be fired directly. Although the barbarian army was highly skilled in foot shooting, the Qiang soldiers were all galloping and mounted. With the violent rain of arrows and fast-moving cavalry, the Qiang soldiers broke through the Qiang stronghold several times.
, the barbarian army resisted with death.
Every barbarian knows that behind the old camp of the Qiang village is a cliff with no way out. Not only do they come from the distant southern Xinjiang, they are the most unwelcome guests on the grassland. They also killed the women, children, and children of the previous Qiang people. As long as they are defeated, no one will
People can go home alive.
It was with this thought that the barbarian army persisted until now. However, nearly 10,000 of the more than 20,000 barbarian soldiers left behind in the old camp were killed. Chuangwuxi suffered heavy casualties that had never happened before.
Almost everyone in the remaining barbarian army was injured and bleeding. If Wang Shuang's cavalry hadn't been able to contain it, and if Liu Zhang's army had not arrived, all the barbarian army would have been destroyed here.
At this moment, even a brave man like Samoko was extremely excited when he saw the Sichuan army.
It wasn't until she saw Hu Che'er appearing in the army that Xiao Furong finally confirmed that the Sichuan army had arrived. With one move of Hongying's spear: "All troops, follow me out of the stronghold to kill the enemy."
A large number of barbarian soldiers followed Xiao Furong out of Dazhai. Many of the barbarian soldiers had been tense for too long and their physical strength was exhausted. At this time, they finally reached their limit. Their white-barrel guns fell from their hands and fell on the wooden bridge of the fence of Dazhai.
The barbarian army, Wang Shuang's army, the Sichuan army, Qiang cavalry in blue clothes, and tens of thousands of troops besieged the panicked Xianling Qiang soldiers. Only a handful of Xianling Qiang soldiers escaped, most of them were killed, and the rest knelt down and begged to surrender. The entire army was wiped out.
"See you, my lord." Wang Shuang led the eighteen local warriors who followed him and bowed to Liu Zhang. Everyone was covered in blood, and the spirit of bravery overflowed from their bodies. It was as if the surrounding temperature had dropped a few degrees.
"General, you are brave and invincible, please rise." Liu Zhang said loudly.
At this time, Xiao Furong came over with the barbarian generals. Liu Zhang took one look, immediately dismounted, walked up to Xiao Furong at a steady pace, and wanted to say, "I'm relieved to see you're okay," but he didn't say anything.
"Husband." Xiao Furong called.
Liu Zhang looked at the barbarian troops behind Xiao Furong and the blood stains on the wooden fence of the Xianling Qiang Dazhai. He could already imagine the brutality of this battle and the sacrifices required to resist cavalry with such a thin defense.
"I rely on you all." Liu Zhang saluted solemnly to the barbarian army behind Xiao Furong. With so many people sacrificed by the barbarian army, plus the number of deaths in other main camps, Wuxi may not be able to recover within a few years.
"Uncle Emperor, you don't have to be polite." Bao'er said with a smile, his bright eyes staring at Liu Zhang behind him, so powerful that he could only turn his head away.
Xiao Furong whispered: "Rong'er seems to have launched the attack a day in advance this time, which is why the casualties were so heavy. If it hadn't been for General Wang Shuang's restraint, I'm afraid the stronghold would have been destroyed long ago. Please punish me, husband."
Xiao Furong lowered her head, feeling that she had made a mistake, but she was not Liu Zhang's real subordinate, so she didn't know how to apologize.
"After traveling thousands of miles behind enemy lines and crossing mountains, how can one calculate the day so clearly? It may even be that I miscalculated the time. Ronger does not need to blame herself."
Liu Zhang turned to Wang Shuang and said: "Wang Shuang, you have done a great job this time. Not only did you restrain the Qiang people from attacking the stronghold, but you also disrupted the formation of more than 10,000 Qiang cavalry, allowing our army to win at the minimum cost. I am temporarily granted the title of Marquis."
You conquer the Western General and give him gold, silver, silk and satin."
Wang Shuang glanced around and bowed to Liu Zhang: "Thank you, my lord, but this meritorious service is not unique to Wang Shuang. Eighteen brothers and a thousand soldiers fought in a bloody battle. Please grant me a title at my lord's discretion."
Wang Shuang led a thousand cavalry and raided the Qiang camp on the first night, beheading numerous people and angering the Xianling Qiang. They reappeared the next day, and the Xianling Qiang immediately led his troops to pursue them. But those Qiang soldiers were not Wang Shuang and Shiba.
The opponent of the famous knight, Wang Shuang, pressed the formation from behind, and nineteen people kept firing arrows behind them.
Wang Shuang and others all used long-range hard bows and kept their horses' distance just within the shooting range. They chased Ling Qiang for more than ten miles, but not only did they fail to catch up, but they left behind a large number of corpses.
Until the leader of the Qiang soldiers, Yan Dahan, could no longer bear it, he finally decided to use his main force to surround and annihilate Wang Shuang.
After the previous battle formation, the Sichuan cavalry already knew Wang Shuang's bravery. Whether they were Qiang people or Xiliang people, they all obeyed force. These soldiers in Wang Shuang's hands had been transformed in a short period of time. They were no longer the only soldiers led by Liu Zhang.
A soldier who knows how to fight with favorable winds.
So today's scene happened.
"You bastard, are there any officials like you?" Wang Xu pretended to scold Wang Shuangdao from the side.
Liu Zhang smiled, glanced at the eighteen people behind Wang Shuang, and nodded: "Everyone of them is good. Today's battle has shown your majesty. The Eighteen Riders of Longxi will surely be famous all over the world."
"The Eighteen Riders of Longxi?" Wang Shuang muttered silently. The eighteen people behind him looked at each other, and joy slowly appeared on their bloody faces.
"Wang Shuang, your Eighteen Longxi Cavalry are unparalleled in the world. They are all appointed as captains and are under your direct command." Liu Zhang said loudly.
"The Eighteen Horsemen of Longxi are unparalleled in the world." Wang Shuang said loudly.
"Eighteen riders from Longxi are unparalleled in the world." All eighteen people shouted in unison.
"The Eighteen Cavalrymen of Longxi are unparalleled in the world." The Sichuan Army soldiers shouted loudly, the sound shook the grassland, and tens of thousands of Qiang Qiang warriors in Tsing Yi stood in awe.
…………
At night, they brought out the dried meat, highland barley and wine from the Xianling Qiang old camp watchtower, and held a banquet for the three armies. Liu Zhang and Xifengchi drank and talked happily together.
"The Sichuan army led by the general has excellent soldiers and brave generals. Xi Fengchi admires it. Xi Fengchi offers a bowl of wine to the general." Xi Fengchi raised his wine bowl.
Just as Liu Zhang was about to raise the bowl, Xiao Furong on the side gave Liu Zhang a hand and looked at Liu Zhang with watery eyes. Liu Zhang smiled awkwardly, put down the wine bowl, had someone change it for a bowl of scented tea, and said to Xi Fengchi: "Chief,
I'm really sorry, I don't like drinking in my life, please forgive me."
"Don't like it? Don't you dare? I didn't expect that the dignified Lord of Shu, who is so fierce in his killings, is famous all over the world, and he turns out to be a man who cares about his family, hahaha." The grassland man was bold and Xifengchi looked at Xiao Furong
He burst out laughing at a glance, and the surrounding Qiang leaders, big and small, also laughed.
Liu Zhang smiled and said that since Xiao Furong was told by Fa Zheng last time in Jiangling, every time Liu Zhang drank, even if Liu Zhang didn't like it, he would stop him. Liu Zhang would not explain. After drinking the wine in Xifengchi, he drank up the scented tea in one gulp.
.
The girl from the Western Regions next to him gave Liu Zhang a strange look. Many countries in the Western Regions are more civilized than the Han people. Women are both domestic and foreign. There are very few men who are afraid of their wives. This Shu lord... Wow, I really didn’t expect that.
The girl from the Western Region seemed to have caught Liu Zhang's pigtails.
"General." Xi Fengchi finished a bowl of wine and said seriously to Liu Zhang: "Xianling Qiang has always been the most unstable in the Western Qiang grassland. Now that they have been wiped out, it is really satisfying. But after the general left,
The pastures, horse farms, pastures, and the large and small Qiang villages left by the Xianling Qiang must be handed over to a trusted tribe, otherwise the Xianling Qiang will reappear in the future, and won’t the general be troubled again?”
Everyone who was still laughing turned serious. Xi Fengchi was discussing the post-war distribution. Liu Zhang tore off a piece of mutton and listened quietly while eating.
Xifengchi looked back at the leader of the Tsing Yi Qiang tribe and said to Liu Zhang: "I, the Tsing Yi Qiang tribe, have the deepest friendship with the general. In the last battle at Yangpingguan, I, the Tsing Yi Qiang tribe, abandoned the secret and joined the bright side. I wisely joined the general.
Defeating Xiliang Ma Chao played a trivial role.
Later, Ma Teng and Han Sui invaded Sichuan with an army of 200,000. Eleven of the thirteen tribes of the Western Qiang participated in the battle. Only the Qingyi Qiang and the Baima Qiang restrained the Xianling Qiang soldiers and horses in the Xiqiang grassland. They never thought of offending the general Hu Wei.
This time, as promised, the general came to Xiqiang to rescue the Tsing Yi Qiang from the siege, saved the Tsing Yi Qiang from fire and water, and saved countless Tsing Yi Qiang tribesmen and warriors.
The generals attacked the Xianling Qiang together and completely wiped out the Xianling Qiang, which fully demonstrated the friendship between the Sichuan Army and the Tsing Yi Qiang Army.
It can be seen from the above that I, the Qingyi Qiang, are the Xiqiang tribe that the general can trust the most. Xifengchi boldly asked for orders to take care of all the Xianling Qiang for the general. If one day the general goes north from Qishan to conquer Xiliang, I, Qingyi
The Qiang will send a large army to accompany them, and they will go through fire and water without hesitation."
"Okay, okay, well said." Liu Zhang clapped his hands twice and said to Xi Fengchi: "The leader is right. Our Sichuan Army and the Tsing Yi Qiang warriors have a deep and unbreakable friendship. The Tsing Yi Qiang are our Sichuan Army and our Qiang warriors."
The Xiqiang tribe, the most trusted tribe of the great Han Dynasty, come and do it."
Liu Zhang picked up a bowl of scented tea, and Xi Fengchi looked at Liu Zhang. Not knowing what Liu Zhang meant, he raised the wine bowl, touched it, and drank it all in one gulp.
