Chapter 1222: Carrying on the Past and Forging Ahead (112) Cut off one of its fingers

The main goal of Gu Li's plan from the beginning was Jiang Zhen's middle cavalry, defeating Jiang Fanglin, Gu Li did not expand the results, but directly attacked Ke Wen who came to the rescue, when Jiang Zhen got the news, he must be shocked and angry, and he would not think much about it to rescue Ke Wen, it was very simple, the four Qin cavalry, any single one of them encountered them, they were at a disadvantage, and Agu Huaien's cavalry was the main force that ambushed Jiang Zhen halfway.

Gu Li was sure that Agu Huaien would be willing to participate in this ambush, because he defeated the main force of the Chinese cavalry in the Jiang route, which was a great achievement, and since this guy joined the Han army, his biggest thought was to make meritorious service and make greater contributions.

And Agu Huaien is insidious enough, and he fights hard, Gu Li may still look down on him, but when he does this kind of work, Agu Huaien is definitely an expert.

Agu Huaien is indeed insidious enough, on the way Jiang Zhen must pass, he used iron wire to lay a wide range of tripwires in the snow, this kind of specially treated iron wire is only half the thickness of civilian use, but it is full of toughness, not to mention the night, even the day, it is difficult to identify it when you look roughly.

Jiang Zhen's cavalry was caught off guard, and immediately set on the road, the cavalry in front of them turned on their backs, and the rear team could only ride their horses to avoid on both sides, but a little farther away on both sides, Agu Huaien also set up this kind of mechanism.

When Jiang Zhen's cavalry was in disarray, Agu Huaien's 5,000 Donghu cavalry division cavalry had already rushed up with a shout.

There is no way out, this kind of tripping rope is different from the ordinary, he will not trip a batch and lose its function, the wire that is deeply embedded in the ground with an iron drill, against the high-speed galloping war horse, it is like cutting tofu with a steel knife, and easily cut off the horse's hooves, hurting the horse, messing up the formation, but it is still staying here.

Jiang Zhen's cavalry is unknown. Subconsciously believing that this tripping horse was just a hammer deal, when the leader team fell and the rear of the big gang attacked, they immediately tried to continue to accelerate forward, widening the gap between them and the enemy, and then returning to pounce.

The reaction of the Qin cavalry was not unpleasant, but it was this quick reaction that killed them at this time, and the forward cavalry continued to fall, falling beside their previous companions.

The chaotic cavalry had no speed, no spacing. From nearly two hundred paces, some soldiers with amazing arm strength had already begun to shoot at the Qin army with bows and arrows, and by the time they reached one hundred and fifty paces, they were already raining arrows.

All of a sudden, people looked up to their horses, and in an instant, the Qin army had suffered heavy losses.

The Donghu Cavalry Division was divided into three units, circling around the Qin army. The art of running and arching was vividly exerted by them at this time.

Jiang Zhen quickly recovered from the initial panic, and as the commander of the army, he now understood. He was deceived by the enemy's plan to knock the mountain and shock the tiger, and the enemy's target was only afraid that he would be from the beginning.

"Throw away all the torches, extinguish the torches!" He ordered loudly, the torch held by the Qin army. makes them eye-catching targets.

Torches were quickly pressed into the snow, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely dark between heaven and earth. Both sides are caught in a situation where they can't see their fingers.

Jiang Zhen's reaction saved him and his troops' lives. The torch was extinguished, Jiang Zhen led his troops to launch a counterattack, in the black light and blind fire, it was difficult for the two sides to argue between the enemy and me, unless it was close to the eye, Jiang Zhen seized this rare opportunity and led most of the Qin cavalry to highlight the heavy encirclement of Agu Huaien.

This battle was shorter than Gu Li's attack on Jiang Fanglin, but the losses caused were far greater than Jiang Fanglin's troops. When the day was late, Jiang Zhen, Jiang Fanglin, Ke Wen and others converged with the left army, both sides looked at each other, they all wanted to cry without tears, Jiang Fanglin was the most chosen to be attacked, but the loss was far lower than his estimate, after dawn, he gathered the rout, and there were more than 3,000 rout soldiers and lay people to find back, followed by Ke Wen, who fought a tough battle with Gu Li, and after losing hundreds of cavalry, he also got rid of the opponent's pursuit, Gu Li did not pursue, let him go. However, Jiang Zhen of the Chinese army fought a battle with Agu Huaien, and suffered the heaviest losses, with more than 6,000 cavalry, half of which was lost.

Jiang Zhen's face was pale, compared to the snow on the ground, looking at his frightened subordinates, he said gloomily: "Retreat, in the short term, we will not have the ability to fight the opponent anymore." "In last night's battle, it was not only the manpower that was lost, but also their three large battalions, all the supplies and materials were lost, and it was absolutely difficult to support their current manpower with only this little material of the left army." There are still battles, and we still have a chance to meet. ”

When retreating, Jiang Zhen looked back at the place where he was humiliated yesterday, and said fiercely in his heart.

"We'll see you later."

Jiang Zhen's camp has now become the trophy of Gu Li and Agu Huaien, but except for some food, the rest of the things, the two of them can't look down on them, and they all burn them down, they don't want to take these burdens with them, but they don't want to leave them to the Qin people.

The raging fire reflected the faces of more than a thousand captured Qin soldiers, and looking at these aliens whose faces were very different from those of the Central Plains, every Qin person was afraid.

At war with the Huns, they rarely survived back then, and now that they have fallen into the hands of the other party, do they still hope to live?

"Kill them all!" Sure enough, behind the bronze mask, a cold order came.

"Wait!" Agu Huaien stretched out his hand to stop Dorjee who was about to carry out the order, looking at Gu Li's cold gaze that swept towards him, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart, this crazy girl, as the legend said, is a bitter hatred for the Qin people.

"Master Gu, the king is strictly forbidden to kill prisoners." He said.

"Do we have prisoners here?" Gu Li said coldly, in her opinion, the Qin people are all animals, so they naturally want to kill them cleanly.

Agu Huaien shook his head and said: "Master Gu, I don't care what you think, since I'm here, you can't do this, otherwise the king will be investigated in the future, and I won't be able to escape." ”

Gu Li sneered: "If you don't kill them, then you can escort them away, I won't accompany them." ”

"Master Gu, today is different from the past, now is not the time when you were on the prairie, you are not allowed to kill prisoners, this is a rule above the military law, and you really want to do this, the big council can make you turn over, don't forget that your man is also a big councilor, if you do this, it will also affect him, when the time comes, even if the king wants to protect you, there is no way to speak, if you still want to stay on the battlefield to collect debts from the Qin people, then you must first ensure that you stay in the army, I bet, if you do this, the king will definitely strip you of your military uniform." , we want to defeat the Qin State, but we don't want to destroy the Qin people's species, besides, even if you are allowed to kill, can you kill it? ”

Gu Li was silent for a moment and turned to Dorjee, "Dorjee, since Commander Agu said so, then spare their lives, but we can't take them away, and we can't put them back, as soon as they turn around and pick up their weapons, they will be our enemies again, and the order will go down, these more than a thousand Qin troops, cut off their right thumbs for me, and then let them fend for themselves." ”

Dropping this sentence, Gu Li walked away, Agu Huaien was stunned for a long time, shook his head and said: "The method is a good way, but it is also a bit vicious, these people are considered to be wasted."

With the right thumb removed, these people can no longer hold weapons, they can no longer be soldiers, and naturally they cannot appear on the battlefield as their enemies.

The two Han cavalry gathered together and rushed towards the end of the snowfield, this battle completely chilled the courage of the Qin cavalry, in a short period of time, this cavalry is impossible to appear on the battlefield, for the logistics from the rear is being transported up, it is of great significance.

On the other hand, they posed a major threat to the Qin army that was attacking Changping, and Lu Chao had to keep an eye on the back of his head at all times to beware of the sudden appearance of their cavalry.

Behind them, there were thousands of Qin soldiers who were rushing to the sky, and their right thumbs were falling to the ground in blood, and not only could they not hold their weapons in the future, but even holding the handle of the hoe became a problem.

But perhaps they were lucky compared to their companions who had fallen into cold corpses in the snow.

In Changping City, Gao Yuan, who got the good news, looked up to the sky and smiled, Gu Li retracted Jiang Zhen to the head, so that the last bit of worry in his heart disappeared, as long as the back road is worry-free and the logistics baggage can be transported on time, then Changping will be solid. He can safely maneuver with Lu Chao here.

The Zhao army resisted from Taiping Creek to Lotte Creek, slowing down the Qin army's march step by step, while Changping was changing at an astonishing speed day by day, the outer positions were expanding, and one by one the fortresses were taking shape, as the wings of Changping City, these fortresses as heavy weapon platforms, would play a huge role in the final battle.

On the eighteenth day after Gao Yuan issued the battle order, the caravan of Zhang Fatzi, a merchant from Daijun, sent the first batch of supplies to the city of Changping. When Zhang Fatzi saw the Han flag fluttering on Changping City, his legs fell off the carriage as soon as he was weak. In just eighteen days, the big fat man has shrunk by almost one-third, and he looks a lot stronger.

"Hahaha, I arrived before the time set by Commander Xu, which is a great achievement." Zhang Huile danced, did this errand well, his own chamber of commerce, can finally be justifiably become the first-class chamber of commerce of the Han, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, since a few years ago, he began to prepare for this day, and now, this pie finally fell on his head, and he lived up to his expectations, swallowed him completely.
