Zhu Bao said: "Xiao Wang, I have told you many times that the king relies on virtue to win over the barbarians. On the surface, the barbarians are convinced, but in fact no one really listens to the king. This is called having face, but not arrogance. Xiao Wang is a thousand-year-old man."
You must not follow the old path of the king."
"I want both face and face, so just tell me what to do."
Zhu Bao said: "This battle with the Sichuan Army is a great opportunity. Through combat, we can integrate the large and small tribes, so that Yin Hangdong can not only command the troops from the perspective of virtue, but also the dignity.
To achieve this goal, the war with the Sichuan army must not stop. Now that the king is weak and has been drugged by Liu Zhang, we must help him."
Meng Huo nodded hesitantly.
Before dawn, the Wuxi barbarian army was drinking and having fun in the camp.
"Grandma, I just captured two Nanbangzi this time. Damn it, can I get one stone of food? Grandma, I'm really sorry for taking this trip."
"You have done the math. I only killed one person this time. The general said that if you kill someone, you can only get 20% of the prisoner's reward. My reward is less than 10% of yours. It's really annoying."
"Are you showing off to us? You have caught someone after all. We big guys didn't even catch a single person, so we just came here to earn rations for a month. You still have money to collect, so just be satisfied."
"I am relying on this battle to earn money and marry a wife."
A group of barbarians were drinking and venting their resentment, but they didn't know that a barbarian army came quietly outside the camp.
Meng Huo summoned his trusted troops and Zhu Bao took advantage of the darkness to reach outside the Sichuan Army camp. However, the direct defense of the Sichuan Army was very tight under the arrangement of Huang Yueying, and there was no way to start, so they had to find the Wuxi Barbarian Army Camp.
"Those Wuxi barbarians are drinking and neglecting their precautions. Xiao Wang, please order a surprise attack." Ah Huinan, one of the marshals of Sandong, admonished Meng Huo.
Meng Huo frowned and looked at the layout of the Sichuan army's camp. Although he was not a wise man, as a young king, he had often fought with the Han people in the past, so he could still see the general camp defense.
Wuxi Camp looks sparse and the sentries are sleepy, but next to Wuxi Camp is the camp of the Sichuan Army's direct troops. This layout was obviously carefully designed by Huang Yueying.
Huang Yueying knew that the discipline of the Wuxi army was loose and could not be restrained in a day or two, so he set up a Sichuan army direct camp next to the Wuxi camp. As long as the Wuxi barbarian army was raided, Meng Huo believed that the Sichuan army would soon attack them in a roundabout way.
Meng Huo shook his head, "These damn Sichuan sentries are still so energetic at dawn. If we attack Wuxi Camp, the Sichuan troops over there will come over immediately, and we will be surrounded by then."
, there will be heavy losses.”
Ah Huinan took a closer look and felt that this was the case. While praising Meng Huo, he felt discouraged.
At this time, Zhu Bao smiled and said: "Xiao Wang, isn't this exactly what you want?"
"What do I want?" Meng Huo was confused.
Zhu Bao nodded with a smile, and Meng Huo suddenly understood. He frowned, squeezed the mace in his hand, and said in his heart for a long time: "Okay, kill."
"kill."
"kill."
Following Meng Huo's order, the barbarian army ambush and charged towards the Wuxi barbarian army. The Wuxi barbarian army, who was drinking and amusing themselves, was caught off guard and collapsed with one blow. The Nanzhong barbarian army slashed and killed the Wuxi barbarian army.
, dead and wounded everywhere.
"Woo~~"
The melodious horn sounded, and the Sichuan army heard the alarm. A large number of Sichuan troops quickly came out of the camp and rushed out from the rear of the Nanzhong Barbarian Army, blocking the Nanzhong Barbarian Army's retreat route.
Xiao Furong rushed out of the tent with Bao'er and other leaders of the Wuxi barbarians, and saw the Nanzhong barbarians massacring the collapsed Wuxi barbarians. Many of the barbarians were not even properly dressed and were killed in a pool of blood.
Looking at the corpses on the ground and the wild swords that were slashing at the tribesmen, Shamoko was furious and said loudly: "Young lord, let me kill these idiots."
"No." Bao'er hurriedly stopped and said to Xiao Furong: "Sister, no. The Marquis of Shu and Huang Yueying have both said that this time we attack the barbarians, we should minimize the casualties. Now the Sichuan army has blocked the retreat of the Nanzhong barbarians. As long as we gather the tribesmen
If we block them, the Nanzhong barbarians will surely surrender and collapse in large numbers. If we kill too many barbarians, the Lord of Shu will be angry."
"Are we just going to watch them kill our people?" Shamoko said angrily.
"Are you going to watch the Nan Zheng fail and make the Marquis of Shu angry with your sister?"
"If he is angry at the young lord, the young lord does not want such a husband."
"Shamoko, please keep your mouth clean," Bao'er said angrily.
"Stop arguing." Xiao Furong looked at the Nanzhong barbarians. These Nanzhong barbarians were about to be surrounded by the Sichuan army, but they did not retreat and continued to rush and kill the Wuxi people. If this continues, there is no telling how many people will die. Xiao Furong squeezed the white jade in her hand
Sword, said in a deep voice: "Follow me, kill."
"Sister." Bao'er glanced at Xiao Furong and was extremely anxious, but Shamoke and others had already followed Xiao Furong to kill him. He shook his whip angrily and led the Wuxi tribe members to kill him too.
The Wuxi barbarians fought with the Nanzhong barbarians. Xiao Furong, Samoko, Bao'er, Huahai'er and other Wuxi generals were not vegetarians. Meng Huo, Meng You, A Huinan, and Zhu Bao were also quite powerful.
Both sides led their tribesmen to fight desperately, resulting in heavy casualties.
"Xiao Wang, it's time to retreat." Zhu Bao shouted to Meng Huo.
At this time, the Sichuan army had almost surrounded the Nanzhong barbarians, leaving only a small gap. When Meng Huo heard Zhu Bao's shout, he swung his mace, smashing several Wuxi barbarians away, and led the people around him through the gap.
Rushing out, just as Meng Huo rushed out quickly, the Sichuan army completed the encirclement.
The Nanzhong barbarians armed with crude weapons were powerless to resist under the Sichuan army's sophisticated equipment and powerful combat power. They were compressed step by step. Meng Huo had already escaped again, and they collapsed immediately. They all raised their hands and surrendered.
Liu Zhang came over wearing pajamas and carrying a lot of strength. Huang Yueying and Zhou Tai came from another tent. Looking at the corpses of Wuxi Barbarians and Nanzhong Barbarians on the ground, Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying frowned.
"Husband, I ordered the strangulation of the Nanzhong barbarian army. Please punish Ronger and not harm other clan members." Xiao Furong walked up to Liu Zhang and saluted Liu Zhang with her sword.
"It's none of the young lord's business. I, Samoko, insisted on killing these ungrateful barbarians. I wish I could skin them alive. If the Lord of Shu wants to punish him, he should punish Samoko." Samoko said bitterly.
.
Bao'er looked at Liu Zhang and Xiao Furong nervously. The barbarians were unwilling and afraid. What they were unwilling to accept was why only the Nanzhong barbarians could kill people, while the Wuxi barbarians could not kill the Nanzhong barbarians. If they did, they would have to apologize.
What I was afraid of was that if Liu Zhang really punished him, not only would the leaders have to suffer, but Wuxi would also lose the opportunity to make money through military exploits.
Liu Zhang walked up to a captured Nanzhong barbarian and asked expressionlessly: "Didn't I let Meng Yao and all your captive tribesmen go? Didn't Meng Yao already agree to a truce? Why did he suddenly attack?"
The barbarian was a little frightened, and said a few words with trembling, and said very powerfully: "He said that it was the young Wang Menghuo who asked them to come."
Huang Yueying stepped forward and said: "No matter whose order it is, my lord, our peace talks with the barbarians are broken, unless..."
"Unless what?" Liu Zhang said coldly.
"Unless the Lord releases these barbarians and sends people to negotiate peace, from today's daytime battle and this sneak attack, I think the barbarian army must be at odds. If we release these barbarians, we will definitely strengthen Meng Yao's confidence and let Meng Yao
Those warring factions have nothing to say."
"It's a joke." Liu Zhang said coldly: "We were attacked by surprise. They have nothing to say. I have something to say. If we were attacked by surprise, I would offer someone to negotiate for peace. I am not that good-tempered."
Liu Zhang turned to the Nanzhong barbarians who were kneeling on the ground and said: "Listen, I don't care who you are or which tribe you come from. Now you have only two choices. One is to surrender to the Sichuan Army and kowtow to the Wuxi Army and confess your crime. The other is to die."
.”
There was a buzz in the Wuxi Army. Xiao Furong, Shamoke, Bao'er and others all looked at Liu Zhang in surprise, and the unwilling expression on Wuxi Man's face faded.
When they released the prisoners at night, the Wuxi barbarians knew that Liu Zhang's policy was to kill as few people as possible, so they showed favor to the Nanman barbarians. They were a little uneasy after killing so many Nanzhong barbarians tonight, as they had already anticipated Liu Zhang's anger.
But no matter what, the Wuxi people were unwilling to accept that their clan members were killed.
Now when they heard Liu Zhang's order, they were all surprised. They felt a lot better and their confidence in following the Sichuan army was strengthened. They all looked angrily at the Nanzhong barbarians kneeling on the ground.
The Nanzhong barbarians on the ground looked at me and I looked at you. They kowtowed to their arch-enemy Wuxi barbarians, but they couldn't make up their minds. Liu Zhang waved his hand, and a row of Sichuan troops stepped forward, thrust out their spears, and stabbed a dozen barbarians to the ground on the spot.
The ground was filled with screams and blood.
Some Nanzhong barbarians finally relaxed, turned to the direction of the Wuxi Army, and knelt down to the Wuxi Army. Most of them were still hesitating. The Sichuan Army stepped forward again, and a row of spears thrust out, killing the barbarians again.
Seeing the bleeding Senhan spearhead, the barbarians finally stopped hesitating and knelt down in large numbers to the Wuxi army, kneeling three times and nine times before the Wuxi army.
"The lord of Shu is mighty, and the Sichuan army is invincible." "The lord of Shu is mighty, and the Sichuan army is invincible." The Wuxi barbarians shouted in unison.
In the past, only the direct descendants of the Sichuan Army shouted this sentence, and the Wuxi people just listened. At this time, the Wuxi people shouted from the bottom of their hearts. Those who did not understand Chinese just heard the four words "Sichuan Army Invincible" and were unfamiliar.
Shouting on the ground, it seemed to be a demonstration to the Nanzhong barbarians who were kowtowing on the ground, and it also seemed to be a formal surrender to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang said to the people of Wuxi tribe: "Listen, I have no other intention in doing this. The Nanzhong barbarians are ungrateful and want to repay kindness with hatred. They sneak attack on the Wuxi people at night. This is an unforgivable crime. If they attack the Sichuan army, I will not be forgiven."
The same will be true.
I have long said that all Sichuan Army followers will be equal to the Sichuan Army during the expedition, and I will never treat them in a biased manner. This behavior of my Marquis is just a lack of partiality."
"The Lord of Shu is mighty, and the Sichuan army is invincible."
The Wuxi Army shouted again. At this moment, not only the Wuxi Army was moved, but also the Nanzhong barbarians who were kneeling on the ground were deeply touched. Being able to treat the entourage and direct troops equally, and fighting with such a Han commander, what else could you ask for?
