Liangzhou, the county seat of Lingzhou.

Since the beacon fire on the Great Wall was lit by the Xianbei people, this century-old military town has never had a moment of rest.

And the horse is different.

Ma Yue, who had rested for three hours, was radiant, and he walked briskly on the streets of this military town in neat clothes and armor, followed by Guan Yu, Yang Feng, and Zhang He.

"Zhang Xiancheng, ordered the officials to count the arrows and armor, and urged the craftsmen to make arrows and saliders from the giant trees piled up in the city."

Zhang He turned around and yawned, tiredness written on his fat face.

In the early morning, Ma Yue and these soldiers completed their mission, and not long after entering the city, they entered the room to rest, and they did not close their eyes all night.

"Zhang Xiancheng."

"Huh? Is there anything else going on with the county lieutenant? ”

Ma Yue patted the floating soil on his shoulder and said, "When the county is done, go and rest, and leave the rest of the war to us." ”

A smile appeared on Zhang Heyuan's face, and he said with a smile: "Thank you, this is what a lower official should do." ”

Zhang He left, and Ma Yue said to Yang Feng: "Ah Ruo, how is Brother Monkey?" ”

Yang Feng led the horse and said with a smile: "The situation is much better now, I have been awake for an hour, and it seems that the injury is not too serious." ”

As soon as they entered the county office, Su Zhenghe, Peng Tuo and others were discussing something around the map hanging on the wall.

"San Lang came just in time, the Xianbei army began to march towards Lingzhou an hour ago, and Dou Junhou and Peng Junhou were discussing the details of defending the city."

Su Zhenghe obviously didn't close his eyes all night, the attendant brought clean water, wiped his face and said again: "The people cut down all the trees outside the city overnight and transported them to the city, and now they are piled up in the north of the city, and the craftsmen are dealing with those. ”

"Well, I saw it on the way when I came, and Zhang Xiancheng went to supervise the craftsman...... Now, what's going on in the city? ”

Su Zhenghe pulled out the bamboo slips and said quickly: "There are 3,000 people in the city, 2,000 soldiers scattered through four gates, 500 ring knives, 800 wooden guns, 100 chariots, 20,000 arrows, and enough food for a month." After a pause, he continued: "I'm afraid the next battle will be very hard. ”

Ma Yue chuckled, looked at Su Zhenghe's eyes, and said, "It's not that I'm afraid." ”

In addition to food, other materials are not enough, and the battle under the city is not so hard.

Dou Liang hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Scout report, Xianbei ** will be in the city in about an hour, there is no news from Huangfu Taishou there is no news for the time being, and Peng Junhou and I plan to be in this place." ”

Dou Liang stretched out his hand and pressed on the map, which was the only way for Xianbei people.

"Ambush Xianbei! What does the county governor think? ”

Peng Tuo is very good at finding a place, and there are many traps planted before Ma Yue and the others come over at that location, which is just right to block the pursuit of the Xianbei people.

Ma Yue frowned and said, "How many people?" ”

Dou Liang replied: "Four curved soldiers and horses, eight thousand arrows, and leave after shooting." ”

"It's a bit of a risk."

After pondering for a while, Ma Yue took a pen and paper and quickly drew a sketch, clapped the board and said, "Bring the oil and let's burn the Xianbei people again." ”

A moment later, there was another large-scale movement of troops and horses in the city, leaving only Wang Wei and two hundred veterans to guard the city gates, and 1,800 soldiers went out of the city en masse, each carrying six arrows on their bodies.

Qihuaili is the only place for Xianbei people to pass through Lingzhou City, ten miles away from Lingzhou, and the horse can be reached in an instant.

The troops were divided into 600 at a position of five miles, led by Peng Tuotianyu, and ambushed on both sides of the road, responsible for sniping the Xianbei people who were pursuing the large army.

Ma Yue, Guan Yu, Meng Qian, Meng Kun took 1,200 soldiers to Qihuaili.

One mile away from Qihuaili, the whole army dismounted, the war horses were hidden in the forest, and everyone walked forward to avoid the trap and lay in ambush on both sides of the road.

The entire ambush was in charge of Dou Liang.

The so-called art industry has a specialization, fighting against the Xianbei people, this old man who has stayed in northern Xinjiang for half his life is much stronger than Ma Yue.

Guan Yu whispered to Ma Yue: "San Lang don't rush out later, I will protect you." ”

Ma Yue nodded, he followed the adventure not to send him to death, but to learn more from Dou Liang, and he was relieved that Guan Yu was by his side.

Seeing that the time was about the same, Dou Liang walked over and said to Ma Yue: "County lieutenant, there are too many people and it is easy to be discovered by Xianbei scouts, so I will lead two hundred people as bait, and when the Xianbei people rush here, the county lieutenant will order the arrows to be released." ”

Ma Yue nodded and said, "Be careful. ”

Dou Liang nodded, ordered the sergeant to mount his horse, and led two hundred men to rush out.

Xianbei people...... Xianbei people.

Before every big war, Ma Yue would emit a sense of tension from the bottom of his heart, and this tension made him restless.

Time passed minute by minute, and half an hour had passed, but Dou Liang had not returned, and Ma Yue became anxious.

Ma Yue tore off the placket and tied the ring knife tightly in his right hand, and the sticky palm could not pull the bow at all.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves shook like thunder on the official road.

From a distance, I saw Dou Liang coming across a horse, followed by a large group of Xianbei people.

Dou Liang successfully lured the Xianbei people in the brigade, and from a distance, the official road with eight horses side by side was black, and the number of Xianbei people was thousands.

No, Ma Yue's pupils shrank suddenly, there were only five people around Dou Liang, and arrows flew past him.

Ma Yue clenched the ring knife in his hand, Dou Liang must have had an accident!

One mile... Four hundred steps... Two hundred steps...

Ma Yue held his breath and measured the distance of the Xianbei people until the Xianbei people rushed in front of him.

When they arrived at the trap area, Dou Liang and the other five people controlled the war horse to rush through from the side, turned around and opened their bows and arrows, and suddenly an arrow flew out.

Ma Yue waved the ring knife and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

The Xianbei people in the first row rushed into the trap area, the horse's legs stepped into the trap pit, and the body rushed forward and the legs made a crisp sound, directly throwing the Xianbei people on the horse far away.

Then, the Xianbei people crashed into the horses in front of them one after another, and piled up on the official road in groups.

At the same time, the soldiers who were ambushed in the woods on both sides shouted in unison: "Shoot the arrows!" ”

Thousands of arrows burst out of the forest and flew into the Xianbei ranks.

The Xianbei Commander, who was swept to the ground by the war horse, got up from the ground, threw down his strong bow and drew his scimitar and rushed towards Dou Liang in front of him, he already knew what was happening, and he also knew what kind of tragedy his people were experiencing.

He was ambushed, just as Dou Liang was ambushed by theirs.

He knew that it was difficult for him to live, and he only wanted to kill the Han officer on the horse in front of him.

Seeing that the Xianbei Thousand Commander drew his scimitar and rushed towards him, Dou Liang stared at his eyes with a sneer on his face, and also drew out the ring knife and rushed forward.

At the same time as the two knives collided, Dou Liang's body was short, his legs controlled the horse and crooked half of his body, and his left hand punched the back of the head of the Xianbei commander.

The force of this punch was so great that the Xianbei Thousand Commander fainted to the ground when he landed.

Turning around and dragging the fainted Xianbei man onto his horse, Dou Liang galloped away with the remaining five Han soldiers.

The battle on the side of Ma Yue and others also came to an end, the six arrows were not fired, hundreds of rockets wrapped in tarpaulins were ignited and shot on the official road, and a layer of hay and fire oil that had already been laid out was on the ground, and then Ma Yue and the others led their troops to straddle the horses.

Hundreds of Xianbei people who were shot to death were left behind in the sea of fire and burned to ashes.
