Chapter 17 First encounter with Xianbei
Zhao Feng led the men and horses all the way north, and after passing through the three counties of Shangdang, Taiyuan and Yanmen, he finally entered Dingxiang County in June 190 AD.
Dingxiang County is located in Shanwu County, and Wucheng, Zhongling, Luoxian, and Tongguo are under the leadership, and there are only five counties in total, which is indeed pitiful.
In the territory of Shanwu County, the remnant sun is like blood, and the wind and sand are full of sky.
"Hoo ......"
I don't know when, on the rolling mountain beams, a ghost appeared like a horseman, the knight felt hat and beard, waist with a scimitar, is the Xianbei people's dress, this Xianbei people shoulder a longbow, three or five feather arrows from behind the shoulder, straight into the sky.
"Appeal ......"
The Xianbei cavalry stopped their horses, like a greedy wolf, standing proudly on the top of the mountain, looking around everything below the mountain, he was looking for his prey.
At the foot of the mountain, a small town caught his eye, and the Xianbei cavalry licked his shriveled lips, his eyes bloodshot.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Tianwei of the Han Dynasty has been declining day by day, and the Xianbei people often go south to invade Youzhou and Merge Zhou.
In addition, due to the tragic death of Stinging Shi Dingyuan in Luoyang, the dragons have no leader, and they have lost Jiuyuan, Shuofang and other places one after another.
"Woo......"
The Xianbei cavalry brought a bull horn to his mouth, puffed out his cheeks, and blew it vigorously, reaching into the sky.
The officers and soldiers on the earthen fort in the town suddenly became alarmed, and hurriedly shouted: "Go and light the wolf smoke, the Xianbei earth dog is here!" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw hundreds of Xianbei cavalry emerging from the mountain, swooping downward, like arrows off the string.
"Whoosh!"
There was a cracking sound, and an incomparably sharp wolf's tooth arrow pierced the officer's throat and sank into the feather's tail.
"Uh......"
The officers and men could only let out a half-scream, and then fell down from the earthen fort, splashing a patch of yellow sand.
"Xianbei Earth Dog is here!"
"Run, Xianbei Earth Dog is coming!"
The people of the town screamed, like ants on a hot pot, panicked and confused. A group of officers and soldiers rushed out with spears in their hands, blocking the mouth of the earthen fort, although there was a look of fear on their faces, but no one flinched, and there were their parents and children in the town.
These officers and soldiers were the descendants of exiles, and in order to survive, they had to join the army, exchanging their lives for rations.
"Huh!"
The leading Xianbei man screamed, and the Xianbei cavalry behind him went crazy, holding a scimitar and waving it towards the weak officers.
"Click!"
"Bang!"
In a single face, these twenty officers and soldiers were drowned in the hooves of the horses by the Xianbei cavalry, and all of them died tragically.
Immediately afterwards, one after another Xianbei cavalry rushed into the town and began their evil deeds, killing people and goods, abusing women, and slaughtering young children, which was unbearable.
……
"Lord, look, there is white smoke, there must have been a battle ahead!"
Yue Fei's eyes lit up, and he said in a deep voice.
Zhao Feng followed the direction that Yue Fei pointed, and could vaguely see a sand castle, and his face couldn't help but sink, and he shouted loudly: "Order!" Assault of the whole army! ”
"The Lord has an order! Assault of the whole army! ”
With Dian Wei's loud roar, the military order was immediately passed on.
More than 3,000 horses galloped towards the place where the wolf smoke was, and the black horses took the lead, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
In the town, miserable voices came and went, and one after another women were brutally bullied by the Xianbei people, and no one could understand their pain in the wailing.
"Wolf mud leader, listen, it seems that there are thousands of cavalry coming this way!"
A Xianbei general said respectfully to the Xianbei man led by him, this wolf mud is the descendant of Xianbei, the younger brother of the king of the head.
Wolf Ni didn't care, and said with a smile: "Talitai, looking at the entire Dingxiang County, the Han people can't get together a five-hundred-man cavalry, how did they come to thousands of people." Besides, the scimitars of my great warriors are hungry and thirsty, and they are waiting to be sent to their deaths! ”
The sound of horses' hooves ticking came from far and near, and the earth began to shake, and even those beastly Xianbei people hurriedly ran out of the room with their pants in their hands.
"Is there really cavalry?"
Wolf mud paused for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Blow the trumpet, gather troops, prepare for battle, and let this group of thieves know how powerful I am wolf mud!" ”
Although there were only about 500 Xianbei people who followed Wolf Ni to plunder this time, Wolf Ni didn't take the Han people to heart at all, even if there were 1,000 Han cavalry, he had a way to defeat them.
When he saw the black press, the wolf mud felt that something was wrong, and the Han cavalry in front of him had 3,000 cavalry, to say the least.
"Hiss......"
Talitai swallowed a cool breath and said in horror: "Wolf mud leader, go quickly!" ”
Wolf mud hurriedly fled north with his men, but it was too late, and the best time to escape had passed.
It's late!
It's really late!
Within a few breaths, these five hundred Xianbei people were surrounded by Zhao Feng and his cavalry, and none of them escaped.
"Kill ......"
Zhao Feng slashed the Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd forward, and his men and horses suddenly slammed into this group of Xianbei people fiercely.
In less than a moment, only the last ten cavalry soldiers were left beside Wolf Mud, Wolf Mud looked around, and the rest were all killed.
Zhao Feng rode his horse forward, and the blood on the Tianlong Broken City Halberd was dripping with blood, and there were no less than twenty Xianbei cavalry who died on the blade of the halberd.
"Poof......
Wolf mud stumbled off the horse and fell to the ground, looked at Zhao Feng in horror, and said tremblingly: "You can't kill me, I'm the younger brother of Kuitou Shan Yu, kill me, the warriors of Da Xianbei will not let you go." ”
Leader?
Zhao Feng's eyes were sharp, he had a certain understanding of Xianbei at the end of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty (181 years) Xianbei died in Tanshi Huai, his son and Lian Jili, and Lian had no talent, sex and greed, and more than half of the Xianbei tribes rebelled, each setting up their own door.
In the last year of Emperor Ling, when Helian was in the northern county of Qianluo, he was shot to death by an arrow, and his son Qianman was young, so he was replaced by the son of the Helian brothers, Kuitou, as Xianbei Shan Yu.
Seeing Zhao Feng hesitate for a moment, Wolf Mu was secretly happy in his heart, and said: "If you send me back, I will definitely repay you with a good life, and I will unify the entire Central Plains in the future, and I will ensure that you are the lord of a state." ”
"Phew!"
Zhao Feng spat on the wolf's muddy face and sneered: "Do you know why the Central Plains hunters would rather raise ten dogs than one wolf?" ”
Wolf mud stretched out his hand and pulled the spit, he didn't dare to speak with anger, he held back his anger and was silent.
Zhao Feng scolded sharply: "Because the dog is loyal, it can take care of the house, it can go hunting, and it can save the life of the owner, while the wolf is an animal that can never be fed, it does not know how to be grateful, and will only ask for meat, just like you Xianbei people." ”
"You ......"
Wolf Mu looked at Zhao Feng angrily, and took advantage of the gap to quietly raise the scimitar in his hand and slash at Zhao Feng.
"Roar!"
Before Zhao Feng could swing his halberd out, Dian Wei beside him had already jumped high from the horse, and the double halberd slashed into the air, directly cutting off the left and right arms of the wolf mud.
"Ah......h
The wolf mud suddenly screamed, rolling on the ground in pain, and the ten Xianbei soldiers raised their scimitars to save them, but in the blink of an eye, they were all chopped to the ground by Dian Wei.
