In the middle of the city.

A small frontier city, even if it is scraped three feet of the ground, there is not much food to be found, the biggest food problem of the Qiang army is still a big problem, this problem alone is enough to make the army's heart shake.

Yue Hu's expression was a little haggard, and he escaped for several days, not only the soldiers were exhausted, but even he was nervous.

If it weren't for the high priest's earlier arrangement.

When the army was deep, they sent people to infiltrate Yinping first, waiting for their army to retreat outside Yinping City, and then they responded inside and outside and captured Yinping City, and they probably didn't even have a chance to rest for a while.

But the Yin soldiers are too small to last long, and if they continue to hold on to the city, even if they don't attack the periphery of the city, they will be killed.

But seeing that the surroundings were already surrounded by airtight, he didn't have any chance to break through at all.

"High Priest!" Yue Hu called the high priest and asked: "I have sent elite cavalry, break through the siege, and ask Dong Zhuo for help, Dong Zhuo has troops in Xiliang, and he will be able to reach Yinping in about seven days at most if he goes south from Wudu, but will Dong Zhuo send troops?" ”

"No!"

The high priest raised his head, looked at Yue Hu, and said calmly.

"Why?"

Yue Hu frowned: "With my relationship with him, it is impossible for him to ignore me, and I am trapped here, he has a lot of responsibility, if it weren't for his news being wrong, how could I easily venture into ......"

"Wang, now you and Dong Zhuo are not the past, in the past, you treated each other with all sincerity, he helped you seize the position of the leader of Baimaqiang, he lent troops to him to sweep Liangzhou, formed an in-law, complemented each other, and it is indeed a different friendship!"

The high priest said: "But you are now the king of the Qiang people, and you must respect the Qiang tribe in your actions, and he, Dong Zhuo, is the prince of the imperial court, so he naturally puts the interests of the imperial court first, even if he is willing, he will not be able to send troops!" ”

Identity represents a position.

The positions are different, even if there is a deep friendship between them, they will decide differently because of interests.

"Even if it is for the Chang'an Imperial Court, Dong Zhuo sends troops, it is a normal thing!"

"No!"

The high priest said: "The Chang'an Imperial Court is now suffering from internal and external troubles, they will not choose to go south at this time and fight hard with the pastoral army, this is not in their interests, even if our entire army is annihilated, the Xiliang army may not be willing to cross the border to reinforce!" ”

"Dong Zhuo sent a letter that day, and the intention was very clear, join forces with us to attack Guanghan and capture Yizhou, has he never sent troops to the south?" Yue Hu's face had a cold aura.

"Guanghan is in civil strife, a godsend, he should have the idea of going south to attack Yizhou!"

The high priest thought for a while and said: "But he is suspicious, he is not sure what the civil strife in Guanghan is all about, sending troops will inevitably destroy their current strategic deployment, and they may also be fooled, but the opportunity to send troops is fleeting, he should be a little afraid to think about it, so let us send troops to the Qiang army......"

"Is he the test that our Qiang army is making for him?"

Yue Hu's pupils suddenly changed color, bloodshot climbed, and a blood-colored light flickered, representing the anger in his heart at this moment.

He regards Dong Zhuo as his best brother and an ally who supports each other.

But Dong Zhuo is using him......

"Wang, it's not important to talk about this now, it's better to rely on others than on yourself, we still have troops, we are not completely desperate, there is still a glimmer of hope that we can rush out!"

The high priest said, "The most important thing now is to rush out!" ”

"Easier said than done!"

Yue Hu gritted his teeth and said: "Today I have released all the scouts, within a radius of dozens of miles, they are all herdsmen's camp tents, one camp after another, and the surrounding roads have been arranged!" ”

"Impossible!" The high priest frowned: "The pastoral army should not have so many troops in Guanghan?" ”

"I also know that some camps should be fake and bluffing, but we are not sure that the camps in that area are fake and bluffing, and if they run headlong like this, I am afraid that they will be wiped out."

Yue Hu looked out the window, the sky was blue, and there were white clouds, but there was a haze in his heart: "From here, to Qiangdao City, it is more than 100 miles, this will be our lifeline!" ”

"Wang, there is no way to break through, it depends on the king, whether he can be ruthless enough!"

The High Priest said suddenly.

"Does the High Priest have a way?" Yue Hu's eyes lit up, and he said, "Please also ask the high priest to tell me what I should do?" ”

"They have set up real and fake camp tents, and the water surrounding the city is impassable, and we can also do some work on the real and false!" The high priest arched his hand and said: "All the way to lure the enemy, all the way to break through, the soldiers are divided into two ways, it is difficult to distinguish between the true and the false, and then the main force of the herdsman army can be diverted, so that we can escape!" ”

"The warrior who lured the enemy?"

"On the battlefield, it is inevitable that some people will sacrifice, but for the sake of the Qiang tribe, I believe they are all willing!" The High Priest said.

When Yue Hu heard this, he was a little silent.

After many years of fighting, he is not an indecisive person, but it is still difficult for him to give up the soldiers under his command, he was originally just an unloved heir, and he can lead Bai Ma Qiang to the point where he is now, relying on the trust of the Qiang army in her.

"Who's going to lure the enemy?"

After half a ring, Yue Hu still made a decision, for the main force, and sacrifice part of the soldiers, this is a decision on the battlefield, but also a choice to maximize interests, as the king of the Qiang people, he can not hesitate, must immediately decide.

"Me!"

The high priest said, "I am the only one who can resist the enemy and create an opportunity for the king to escape from here!" ”

"No!"

Yue Hu hurriedly said: "High Priest, you are the spirit of my Qiang people, I will never let you go on an adventure!" “

"Not if it's me!"

The high priest said, "King, now that we are in danger, if I can use my life to win a way for my Qiang tribe to live, I am willing to die." ”

Among the Qiang army, except for Yuehu who has the greatest prestige, there is only the high priest left.

Relatively speaking, the Qiang army is afraid of Yuehu, and for the high priest, it is respect, the high priest has been working for the welfare of the Qiang people for ten years and one day, and has worked hard for the life of the Qiang people all his life.

This respect, looking at the entire Qiang tribe, is only the high priest.

can command the Qiang army, let the Qiang warriors take the initiative to send them to death, and create an opportunity for the main force to break through, this person, except for Yuehu, I am afraid that only the high priest can do it.

"No way!"

Yue Hu still didn't want to: "The Qiang people can't do without the high priest, I will definitely be able to kill the high priest and escape!" ”

"Anyone can do without the Qiang people!"

The high priest said in a low voice: "Only one king cannot be missing, king, you are the backbone of the Qiang tribe, after all, I am old, even if I return to Jishi Mountain, I will not live for a few years, and I can still do a little capture for the Qiang tribe, it is my luck!" ”

Yue Hu looked at the high priest and thanked him with some tears: "High priest, it's all to blame for Yue Hu's greed and incompetence, and if he failed to investigate the situation, he was already alone. ”

The high priest has not been very satisfied with her sitting in the position of King Qiang over the years, but because she is the strongest, she has taken the position of King Qiang in Jishi Mountain.

As the high priest who is unconditionally loyal to the king of Qiang, he can only be loyal to Yuehu.

He really didn't expect that at the critical time, the high priest would stand up and take the most dangerous position to cover his withdrawal.

"Wang, he is the king of the Qiang tribe, and the king will not do anything wrong!"

The high priest said in a low voice: "This matter is just a small twist and turn, as long as it passes, the king will definitely be more stable in the future and seek benefits for our Qiang people!" ”

"Definitely!" Yue Hu nodded: "Yue Hu will never dare to forget the meeting of the high priest!" ”

"After I leave, the position of high priest can be chosen by the king as he pleases!" The high priest said: "I already have a successor, he is still young, he may not have experience in the affairs of the high priest, but his talent, talent and wisdom are outstanding, and he has a deep study of Sinology, I propose that he can inherit the position of the high priest, only the high priest who is familiar with the Han people can become the best high priest!" ”

"Gerdo?"

When Yue Hu heard this, he squinted slightly, he naturally knew the apprentice of the high priest: "Is that the child that the high priest sent out back then?" ”

"It's him!"

"He still hates you?"

"Maybe, but as long as he is wholeheartedly for the Qiang tribe, it's worth hating me!" The high priest said, "However, the king will have to guard against him in the future!" ”

As he spoke, a wry smile appeared on the high priest's face: "In those years, I sent him to the world of the Han people, a Qiang person, to survive in the world of the Han people, how much suffering he suffered, how many sins he endured, I don't have to think about it, I can guess that he must have anger in his heart, and his city is getting deeper and deeper, even I, I can't see through him!" ”

…………………………………………………………………………

………………

Gerdo watched the situation outside the camp carefully, and waited until the afternoon when the high priest came out, and he himself stepped forward to help the high priest out.

The high priest is not young after all, and the long journey and racking his brains to make plans have already exhausted a lot of his physical strength.

"High Priest!"

Gerdo saluted.

"Back to the camp, I have something to tell you!"

The High Priest said in a low voice.

Gerdo helped the high priest back to his tent, and sat down for the high priest.

"Gerdo, you can sit too!"

There was a rare hint of compassion on the high priest's face.

Gerdo sat down.

"You still hate me in your heart!" The high priest said in a low voice: "It was I who killed your mother, and it was I who sent you to the world of the Han people to suffer. ”

In an instant, Gerdo's eyes burst with murderous intent.

The killing intent came and went quickly, as if it had never appeared, and Gerduo was still so pious, as if a junior who respected his teacher was listening to the lessons of his elders.

"The son of the Qiang people, should be happy to enmity and hatred, if it is an enemy, kill it, and help if it is a friend, I used to want to be that kind of person, but when I become a high priest, I have to learn to listen to the teachings of God, enmity and enmity are no longer important, only the strength of the Qiang tribe is the mission!"

The high priest said in a low voice: "I killed your mother because she let the first zero and burn the fight, so that the Qiang people were almost destroyed, her ambition is too big, so big that the Qiang tribe can't tolerate it!" ”

"Zero-sum burning?"

Gerduo finally spoke, and his sarcastic voice echoed: "The war between the tribes of the Qiang people, fight and fight, what do you have to do with us, she is your wife, how can you do it!" ”

"Are you still willing to recognize after all, I am your father!"

The high priest laughed.

"My father is dead, many years ago!" Gerdo said.

"We are all Qiang people, in fact, we should have a fight, maybe it is more in line with the character of the Qiang people, but whether it is you or me, it is becoming more and more like a Han person!" The High Priest sighed.

"Is there a difference between the Qiang and the Han?" Gerdo said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The high priest looked at the hunt and said: "You remember, the Qiang people will always be the Qiang people, the Han people will always be the Han people, the Han people, never want us Qiang people to disappear into history, and our mission is to make the Qiang tribe stronger!" ”

"That's yours, not mine!"

Gerdo said.

"It'll be yours soon!"

The corner of the high priest's mouth raised a smile slightly, and said: "I am waiting for ten days, the court does not send troops, and the king is ready to break out, and when the time comes, you will follow the king to break out!" ”

"What about you?" Gerdo frowned.

"I'm afraid that the battle will be too tragic to take care of you, and you will be much safer by the king's side!"

The high priest rubbed the bridge of his nose and said, "I am tired, go down!" ”

"Yes!"

Gerdo's eyes glanced deeply at the high priest, as if to note his countenance, and only after half a ring did he turn to leave.

"Gelduo, you remember, no matter when, you must respect the interests of the Qiang tribe, as long as it is for the good of the Qiang people, you can do anything, you can do anything, I can kill the old chief, you can also betray Yuehu, I don't ask you to be loyal to anyone, as long as you remember, you are a Qiang person!"

The voice of the High Priest came slowly from behind Gerdo.

"Qiang?"

Gerdo's footsteps paused for a moment, and soon became swift, and he walked out of the tent without taking two steps.

On April 24, the Qiang army had begun to kill horses to satisfy hunger, but after waiting hard, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court did not appear after all, and Yuehu was also waiting, becoming completely desperate.

The Qiang army's breakout campaign began.

The Tiger soldiers were divided into two routes.

Two lines of soldiers and horses, along the north and northwest two directions to break through the siege, go hand in hand, one of the way, in fact, there are only about 2,000 soldiers and horses, it seems that it is not a problem, but it is extremely fierce, and go to this way of soldiers and horses, after going around the city, directly collide with Huang Shao's three battalions and gather nearly tens of thousands of troops.

With 2,000 soldiers and horses, he stubbornly entangled all the main forces of the Yellow Turban Army.

This battle was tragic.

From day to night, and then from night to day, the whole day and night of fighting came to an end, and the Qiang people had 2,000 soldiers and horses, and the whole army was annihilated, and the Yellow Turban Army was also injured in the eyes.

At this time, the other main force had already broken through the interception of the wolf camp and killed Guanghan......
