The two groups of rabble-roused men were killing each other with great joy. They looked enthusiastic, but in reality they had little technical content and were unable to follow some basic tactics. The battle was just brutal and brutal, with heavy casualties on both sides;
"Kill——!", a clear and violent roar, accompanied by the sound of galloping war horses, Ma Chao led three thousand black scarf troops to gallop, splitting the rebel formation like a wave, and everyone fell down as the horses neighed.
a group of enemies;
Probably aware of his own problems, Ou Xing consciously marched in the middle of the military formation. The formation of 40,000 people was very thick. Only 3,000 cavalry were not enough to break through his protective formation, but he forgot about the black formation.
After the Turban Army, there is another group of elite warriors!
During the Southern and Northern Wars, Sun Jian's 3,000-strong army could be called elite soldiers! Elites from hundreds of battles! These were a group of thugs who rolled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, but their leader was more powerful than them, so he kept suppressing them.
, now the iron cage opens and the tiger enters the forest!
"Behead Ou Xing! Kill Ou Xing! Kill Ou Xing!" Someone Li shouted: "Without all the dragons, the rebels will be defeated! Kill——!"
He was just bored and fanning the flames. When Ou Xing heard his shouting, could Ou Xing have any other reaction? More and more guards gathered around him. It seemed that he still cherished his own life;
What is needed is this subtle change. If Ou Xing does nothing, he will be disappointed. This kind of action will undoubtedly tell the rebels that our strength is not as good as the other side, and I am ready to escape. The rebels will be affected by this.
, switching from offense to defense, passively defending;
It seems that the rebels' defense has been strengthened.////It is more difficult for the officers and soldiers to break through, but! As long as they break their formation in one go and threaten Ou Xing's life safety, Ou Xing will either escape or die, the rebels will not be able to break through.
The attack breaks and is defeated!
The ferocious Sun Jian's troops completely frightened the mob. There was only life and death fighting on the battlefield, and there was no fun! Everyone who survived the war was a strong person! Those guys with ferocious faces who risked their lives were really terrifying.
!
"If you don't want to die, come to me!" Ou Xing looked at the Black Turban cavalry and Sun Jianjun who were constantly advancing and attacking. The original calm expression disappeared. Holding the anti-flag high means either life or death. There is no third rule.
There is a way to go, especially for him as an advocate;
They probably didn't listen to the shouting. The army that they had easily defeated went crazy and charged at their defense line one after another. Even the defense became very difficult. At this time, everyone was thinking about how to survive.
Will anyone listen to him?
"Come on! Come on!" Ou Xing held up his sword and chopped down several soldiers who were afraid to move forward. He roared angrily: "My rebels, his rebels! We have no way out! Defeat them."
Only then can we survive!"
After all, he is a person who has read books, and he is very good at convincing people. With both soft and hard tactics, the rebels have made a slight improvement. Unfortunately, Ou Xing has been targeted. "Whoosh——!", a feather arrow with a broken arrow
The voice of the sky pierced his shoulder!
"Whoosh!", a faster sound broke through the air, and with a click, the rebel army's banner broke! A short gun was inserted into the ground not far away!
Then look at the source of the arrows and the owner of the short spear. Huang Huang glanced at Ma Chao with approval. Then he shouted: "Ou Xing is dead! Ou Xing is dead! Only punish the thieves and ignore the rest! Put down your weapons."
Surrender quickly!"
Ou Xing was stubborn. After falling off his horse, he broke off the arrow and shouted loudly: "Don't listen to his monstrous words to confuse the public! Hold on! Kill——!"
This brave style greatly boosted the morale of the rebels, and they rushed forward with enthusiasm. But at this moment, someone poured cold water on them. Sun Jian had already put his big knife on Ou Xing's neck, and sneered again and again!
The boss was in the enemy's hands, so what spirit did the others have to resist? Those who fled, ran away, surrendered, and those who dared to resist were all killed by the Nanyang Army who were like animals. A vigorous peasant uprising
, it only lasted about half a month before being subsided;
Ou Xing was escorted in front of Li Kai. He held his neck and neither spoke nor saluted. The arrows on his shoulders only made him occasionally twitch the corner of his mouth. It looked like he was in severe pain. Li Kai waved back with great interest.
The soldiers who wanted to make Ou Xing bow to him walked up to him;
Smiling and asked: "I said that whatever you do will be written for you by me! Do you believe it? Ou Xing! Your so-called ideal is simply a selfish idea, something based on the pain of others.
It shouldn’t exist! You say, yes or no?”
"Humph!" Ou Xing snorted softly: "I'm afraid what I want to do is something that many people want to do but dare not do! I ask myself, I am not wrong! It is you who are wrong! It is the Han Dynasty that is wrong! I
I just want to get back what belongs to me!"
"What's yours? Is there anything that's yours? What a joke! Your body, hair, and skin are all given to you by your parents. You can never repay the kindness they gave you, but what you do now has shamed them! The books you read,
The knowledge you have learned is the culture inherited from the Han Dynasty. How are you going to repay it?
The land you cultivate, the food you eat, the clothes you wear, the house you live in. Everything is provided by this country for you! It also provides you with a peaceful environment to grow. But what you are doing now is exactly disturbing this country.
To feel calm and impose your so-called pain on others!
You! You have committed a heinous crime! You have wronged too many people, and yet you dare to be so stubborn? I don’t want to waste any more words with you! Pull him out and kill him! Take me to write a battle report and submit it to the court!
", Li Kai waved his sleeves, and the guards around him held Ou Xing on the left and right, and dragged him out;
Perhaps Ou Xing wanted to understand something when he was about to die, so he closed his eyes and said nothing, just waiting for the door of death to open for him!
After the rebellion was completed, the credit may not be small, but Li Xiaoxian will not be included in these credits at all. He can only be credited to Yuan Shu, the governor of Nanyang, and Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha. Firstly, he did not want to cause any trouble. Secondly,
He himself has not demonstrated filial piety and integrity, and he will not receive any good rewards, so it is better not to do so;
"Brother Wentai! What do you think?" After writing it casually, he handed the letter to Sun Jian. Sun Jian was a little embarrassed after reading it: "Little sir, this is a bit unrealistic, isn't it? Sun doesn't seem to have such a big contribution!"
In the letter, all the credit for capturing the thieves and breaking the enemy's formation was given to him. This credit is not light, and he himself led only 3,000 people. Most of the credit for defeating the rebels actually goes to Nanyang.
However, Li Kai did not ask for so much from Jun, but only for very little;
This is intentional. Mr. Li rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "You also know that Nanyang County is very poor now. There are many homeless people adopted, so I need captured rebels. Do me a favor. These prisoners
But I can’t leave it to you! Brother Wentai, don’t blame me!”
"Can you help me? I wonder what kind of help you want, sir? I need someone from Sun." Sun Jian asked enthusiastically, with a smile on his face. Li Kai raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "It's nothing. Mr. Wang Rui and Wang Zhoumu agreed a few days ago.
Give us some food in Nanyang. I need to move this food back! Six hundred thousand refugees can only rely on this little food!"
At this point, Sun Jian also understood what he meant. This guy set his sights on Jiangxia County! Jiangxia County had a lot of grain, and he knew this, but he didn't expect that someone Li really planned to attack Jiangxia County!
"Hahaha! The young gentleman gave me such a great contribution and helped me explain the border crossing to the court. Wentai is deeply grateful. However, I can't stay here for a long time! Wuxi barbarians often appear in the Changsha area. Please protect me.
The responsibility of protecting the environment and the people cannot be discarded! Then, I say goodbye!" Sun Jian stood up and said goodbye;
"My duty and safety are at stake, so Mr. Li won't leave any message, brother! When we meet in the future, we will definitely have a drink!" Li Kai sent Sun Jian away with a smile, and turned around to summon the generals to inquire: "The casualties.
Geometry? Captive geometry?."
"In this battle, our army lost more than 5,800 people, including those who died from serious injuries, and more than 20,000 people were slightly injured, with very few uninjured. More than 18,000 enemy soldiers were captured and more than 6,000 were killed.
People; many people took advantage of the chaos to escape!" Huang Zhong reported;
"The casualties are huge!" Mr. Li frowned and banged the weapons beside him: "Record the names of the fallen, and the rewards they should be given will not be less. Three thousand people were specially sent to kill them.
Transport it back, and the rest of the people will follow me to collect the reward!"
Soon, a group of Qiu Ba came outside Xiling City, that is, outside Jiangxia County City. They were huge in number with flags waving and people shouting. The man who temporarily led the Jiangxia Prefect was named Cai Mao. This guy had just arrived because Liu Jingsheng was in Xiangyang City with Wang Rui.
There was a lot of overt and covert fighting, and Huang Zu, who was outstanding in ability, had to suppress him, so the task of foreign aid was given to him;
Liu Biao's purpose was to let Cai Mao develop a force in Jiangxia County. It may be that he came at the wrong time. Ou Xing happened to rebel. After Huang Zu transferred his troops to Jiangxia County, only a few soldiers were left.
Thousands of soldiers and horses, all of them old and weak;
Originally he was extremely anxious and asked Xiangyang for help. As a result, two groups of fierce men came from Nanyang and Changsha and killed Ou Xing in a short time. But now it seems that this is not a good thing! This is obviously
I came here for myself!
Standing on the top of the city, the mighty Cai Mao raised his voice and shouted: "Who is coming? Why are you knocking on the gate?"
A carriage swayed over and slowly stopped. A very elegant white-faced scholar came out and said with a smile: "May I ask who is in the city? Is it the new Jiangxia prefect? A certain Nanyang Li Kai
, Li Xiaoxian! I came here to pay you a special visit!"
Okay! Cai Mao rolled his eyes, he was afraid that this matter would not go well! He had seen Li Xiaoxian, and he had also witnessed with his own eyes why Liu Biao was knocked down from the altar of Zhou Mu. Originally, the Nanyang army had beaten
Under the banner with the word "Yuan", he thought it was Yuan Shu who was coming in person, but he didn't expect someone even worse to come!
The army was approaching, and Cai Hao's palms were sweating. He was not sure what the consequences would be if he shut up and refused to answer, or stayed behind closed doors. The other party was a daring character, so he gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "It's Mr. Li."
Ah! I’m Cai Mao! It’s been so long!”
"Ah! Ah? It turns out to be General Cai! What a pleasure to meet you! What a pleasure to meet you!" Li Kai smiled and cupped his hands: "We followed the imperial court's instructions and came to Jiangxia to suppress the bandits. We have just completed the counterinsurgency, but we have no choice but to return because we don't have enough food and supplies.
I’m not going! So I can only come to your place to enjoy the autumn breeze! I don’t think Jiangxia County is so stingy, right?"
This is true. The Nanyang Army now has no food and grass at all. Because Ou Xing's circle was a bit wide and all his food and grass were wrapped around it. The half-month food and grass he originally brought had to be boiled into gruel in the end.
How pitiful it is to let these men barely eat a little!
Cai Mao was at a loss for words. It was no secret that Jiangxia County had a lot of food harvested, but he had never seen such a shameless person blocking the door and begging for food! This was a large-scale force begging for food!
Seeing that Cai Mao didn't say a word, Mr. Li raised his eyebrows: "Tell you the truth! General Cai! We came hungry! This is a fact! Something happened in your Jiangxia County, and as neighbors, we are
Bleeding and sweating. You can't make us cry!"
He said it in a pitiful way, but in fact it had risen to the level of a threat of force. Cai Hao knew that if he didn't express his position, Jiangxia County might be in trouble by these people, and they would not be able to live in peace, and they would even dare to fight him.
;
Helpless, Cai Hao could only force a smile: "It's not that Cai doesn't know how to treat guests! It's just that the soldiers and horses brought by Mr. are too murderous. I'm afraid of disturbing the people in the city. So, come into the city and let's talk in detail.
how?"
"No, sir! I'm afraid there's some fraud involved! This Cai Mao is a relative of Liu Biao. There's no guarantee that he won't secretly kill him because of what happened last time!" Huang Zhong hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, fearing that someone Li would be in danger and get out of danger.
big thing;
"Cai Mao is a very timid person. Although he is talented, he is too timid. As long as you are here, he does not dare to take any action against me. He will only treat me like a distinguished guest! Hahaha! Chao'er! Come with me.
Come on!" Li Kai smiled nonchalantly and led Ma Chao towards Jiangxia County;
The suspension bridge was lowered on the city and the city gate was opened. Cai Mao bowed his hands in humility and saluted: "It's been a long time since we last seen each other. I wonder if Mr. Li is still well?"
"How can it be bad? I have eaten well and slept soundly. It's just that I was a little tired when I came to Jiangxia County this time. Why don't I ask General Cai for some compensation! Brother Cai, please don't blame me!" Li Kai said as soon as he met Li Kai.
A big downer:
"Nanyang! It's so poor! I'm not even willing to make new clothes to wear during the Chinese New Year! You don't know that Nanyang has become a refugee shelter now, with more than 600,000 refugees. It's hard to feed so many mouths, so I can't
We can’t bring people out to eat and drink! It’s a pity that more than 5,000 people died in Jiangxia just for food and clothing!”
While talking, Mr. Li shed two lines of clear tears. This was a true expression of his true feelings. Although he was cruel and let the Nanyang Army fight to the death with the rebels, people's hearts are always fleshy. So many dead people were just for training.
, it is impossible for him not to feel guilty!
When the conversation changed, Li Kai stared at Cai Hao: "General Cai! I need one million stones of food and grass to feed the refugees. Please help me. They are all from Jingzhou, not outsiders! Mr. Zhou Mu also promised me
There is no news about this matter until now. Even if I beg you!"
Cai Hao's eyes rolled straight. This damn scholar is different. He's so brave. He's so stupid! He's lucky enough to be able to speak for a million stones and grains. He touched his nose and said awkwardly: "Although I
I sympathize with you, but... after all, it's not me who makes the decision in Jingzhou! Is one million stones too much?"
"This is righteousness! Does Brother Cai want to put millions of people to death?" Li Kai suddenly shouted: "General Cai! It is not my responsibility to protect the country and the people and help those in need."
Cai Mao groaned twice and then said: "The grain stored in Jiangxia County is all grain used during spring plowing. If I give it to you, wouldn't it hurt more people? So be it! I make the decision privately and give it to you.
How about one hundred thousand stones? This is already my limit! One hundred thousand stones is a lot! You can’t force me anymore!"
"One hundred thousand stones?" Li Kai shook his head: "The number of dead in our army is only 5,000, and the number of injured is as many as tens of thousands. There are all injured. So much blood has been shed. You tell me that one life is only worth 20."
Stone grain grass? Brother Cai, are you kidding me? At least 800,000 stones! The rest is enough to make seeds!"
"Eight hundred thousand stones? You are trying to force me to death!" Cai Hao shook his head, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet: "Two hundred thousand stones, no more! I have already risked my life to help you.
!Mr. Li, you have to forgive me!"
"Six hundred thousand stones!" Li Kai gestured with a six: "Most of the food and grass in Jingzhou are stored in Jiangxia County. Don't tell me that there is only one million stones of food and grass! Don't forget, if there is no
We are here to help you, the food and grass will most likely be taken away by the rebels!
That's a forty thousand strong enemy! Don't tell me that without our help, just the three to five thousand old, weak, sick and disabled people in Jiangxia County can defeat the rebels! You have to be kind! Brother Cai! You can't be ungrateful!"
Cai Hao's face turned red and white. If this matter could not be solved as soon as possible, he was afraid that disaster would happen. He gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. Cai Hao sighed: "Lao Cai's head is pretty tough to save. I won't say anything about the 400,000 yuan."
Okay, five hundred thousand stones of food and grass, this is the limit! If it doesn’t work, please ask Mr. Li to kill me first!”
"Hahaha! Brother Cai is so benevolent and righteous! He is so benevolent and righteous!" Someone Li patted Cai Hao on the shoulder and laughed. He kept praising him. Cai Hao was also laughing but reluctantly. This guy is really more hateful than a rebel!
The two of them were discussing prices like businessmen, except that the buyer didn't give money and only gave some compliments, while the seller had to give due to various things. It was like an employment relationship, except that the mercenary came to the door on his own.
Those who come are not those who come willingly to the employer;
Because they were afraid that Mr. Li would seize the opportunity to enter the city and force him to stay, Jiangxia Army helped transport 500,000 stones of grain and grass. The Nanyang Army, which had been upgraded from a refugee to an army, was still the kind of simple common people who cherished food. They had seen so much
The food suddenly burst into joy;
Although there were many casualties in the battle, a lot of food and grass were obtained to make up for it, which was not bad. With Cai Mao wiping his cold sweat and Mr. Li's satisfied expression, the two sides said goodbye and embarked on different paths;
On the other hand, Sun Jian, who rushed to Changsha County, was plotted by someone. This plot had a great impact, especially on Li! Sun Jian, the bastard, swallowed half a million stones of food and grass from him!
