Chapter 308: The Battle of Liangzhou (4)

Above the head of the city,

Jiang Jian stared at the Qiang camp in the distance with burning eyes,

This time, he was very nervous.

Before Matthew left the city,

And he himself came to the head of the city.

I want to observe the process of the camp here.

However, the Qiang army led by Lingnu was stationed several miles away.

In the middle of the night, only a faint outline of the camp could be seen.

Matthew has already set off for a meal,

In the distance in the originally silent Qiang camp,

Suddenly a fire ignited,

And the firelight that was seen from a distance faintly seemed to be intensifying,

At the same time, there were faint shouts of killing.

Jiang Jian was overjoyed when he saw this,

With his right hand, he clenched his fist fiercely and swung forward:

"It worked!"

His heart was very happy,

Everything that happened in front of him was a success of the camp.

After the joy, Jiang Jian continued to stare nervously in the direction of the Qiang camp in the distance,

Now although the camp is successful,

But Matthew and the others have not returned,

They are no more than 3,000 soldiers,

The opponent's battalion has tens of thousands of troops.

If the war is deadlocked,

If you're under siege,

Then the 3,000 of them will be in danger.

In Jiang Yin's anxious waiting,

Time passes slowly,

I don't have the slightest feeling on weekdays,

But now it has been found that

Time passed slowly.

Finally, nearly half an hour later,

Jiang Jian stared motionlessly,

My eyes are a little sore,

Suddenly faintly,

I saw a group of men and horses rushing out of the Qiang camp at high speed.

There were also soldiers next to him shouting:

"General, general, look! Someone came out, it must be General Ma and them! ”

Jiang Jian nodded excitedly,

Hands gripping the walls more nervously,

I didn't even notice that my finger was embedded in it,

I was even more nervous than I was going to school

Because at this time,

Behind the centaurs,

Suddenly, there were countless people with torches chasing after them,

At a glance, you can see that those are Qiangrao's pursuers.

Although there is a distance between the two sides,

But it was clear that the speed of the pursuit seemed to be on the upper line.

The two sides are chasing me and rushing towards Lijing City,

A soldier beside Jiang Jian opened his mouth and asked:

"General, should we go to the rescue?"

Jiang Jian reacted when he heard this,

Hurriedly spoke:

"Yes, yes, yes. Quickly order the city gates to be opened, and the army will quickly leave the city to respond! ”

A soldier on the side hurriedly ran down to give orders.

Jiang Cheng suddenly said at this time:

"General!"

Jiang Jian turned his head and looked at Jiang Chengdao suspiciously:

"What?"

Jiang Cheng hurriedly said:

"General, will the opening of the city gates give the enemy a chance?"

Jiang Yan's eyes shrank when he heard this,

He lowered his head and pondered for a while, and hurriedly spoke:

"In this way, the crossbows and trebuchets on the castle are ready, and the longbowmen are ready at the castle!"

After giving the order, Jiang Jian felt a little relieved,

Once again, he focused his attention on Ma Jiajun in the distance.

The Ma Jiajun who fled back finally approached the city of Lijing,

Although the night is dark at this moment,

But under the cover of the torches,

and never found the figure of Matthew,

Jiang Jian opened his mouth and asked:

"Where's Zhongqi?"

A soldier dressed as a soldier replied loudly:

"General, the major general is injured and unconscious, please let him go quickly!"

At this moment, Ma Jiajun is far away from Lu Bu's army under Lijing City,

It's about a few hundred paces away,

The Qiang army behind him is now only half a mile away,

This little distance is at the speed of the war horse,

It's just a matter of breath and you can pass it.

At this moment of crisis,

If the defenders of the city do not get out of the way,

Then there are only two endings for these three thousand centaurs,

or slow down and be caught up by the Qiang people and fall into a dead end,

Or to keep this state of charge,

Forcibly break through the formation of the receiving troops in front of you,

cause chaos on your own,

Then the Qiang army seized this opportunity,

The three thousand horses and the troops under the city will respond,

Destroy them together, and you may even be able to break through into the city.

The situation was suddenly in a state of great urgency,

Jiang Jian's eyes froze,

Immediately made a decision and shouted loudly:

"Let the way open and let friendly forces pass. All personnel are ready for battle! ”

Hearing Jiang Yin's order,

More than 10,000 people at the door quickly parted to the left and right,

A road was vacated enough for troops to pass,

The three thousand exhausted Ma Jiajun quickly passed through here without any stop.

The people who received the troops did not have time to look at those who were passing.

They clenched their weapons tightly,

Nervously looking at the Qiang army that was getting closer and closer on the opposite side.

Three thousand cavalry quickly passed through the city gates in a nervous and orderly manner,

The Qiang army in the distance has now reached a place very close to the city gate.

Under Jiang Yin's order,

The archers above the city loosened their bowstrings,

Immediately countless locusts rained down,

Splashing the army of guns swarming outside,

It's just that because the distance between the two sides is not too close,

Doesn't have the ability to inflict as much damage.

Duan Kun raised the mace in his hand violently,

The more than 20,000 Qiang soldiers behind him immediately stopped,

Duan Kun roared angrily:

"The Wuna Han army, so cunning, actually attacked our camp in the middle of the night!"

Jiang Jian laughed when he heard this:

"The art of war is cloudy: soldiers, treacherous! You and other barbarian people, how can you understand the culture of my brilliant Han Dynasty! ”

At this moment, Jiang Jianzhi is complacent,

Not only did the camp succeed,

And Matthew also returned to the city of Lijing,

Although Fang Cai's own soldiers and horses were seriously wounded,

However, Jiang Jian had carefully observed,

Ma Jiajun's face was not too sad,

It wasn't life-threatening.

Now, although the Qiang army is under the city,

But I am well prepared,

And the Qiang people are nomads,

Riding on a horse and crisscrossing the battlefield, there are few rivals,

But to conquer the city,

But it's not the other party's strength.

What's more, after experiencing such a stolen camp,

The pursuers who rushed to the chase were slanted one by one,

And most of the faces are tired,

Jiang Jian wished that the other party would forcibly attack the city at this moment,

That would also lead to another heavy blow to the enemy.

Sure enough, after the commander of Qiang Rao heard this,

Angry and shouted,

"Han dog, so cunning!"

Jiang Jian smiled slightly,

Continue to tease:

"I have heard that you Qiang people are brave and good at fighting, but I don't know if you dare to fight at night? We are willing to accompany you! ”

As soon as Jiang Jian's voice fell,

More than 10,000 soldiers under the city suddenly took a sharp step forward,

Roaring loudly in his mouth:

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The momentum of the rush suddenly burst out,

Immediately the Qiang army in front of him, who outnumbered him,

The shock was more than a few steps back.

All the Qiang people showed a look of horror on their faces,

It was obviously taken by the momentum of the Han army.

Duan Kun looked at Jiang Jian above the city,

The look on his face was cloudy,

After a long silence,

Finally turned around and quickly retreated towards the way they came.

Seeing that the Qiang people finally retreated,

Jiang Jian exhaled a breath of turbid air with relief,

If the place is really besieged,

Although the Han army was able to win,

But there will inevitably be heavy casualties,

Now that the enemy has retreated,

not only did not cause too many casualties,

At the same time, the fact that tonight's camp was a big victory was confirmed.

At this moment, whether it is above the head of Lijing City,

Or those Han soldiers waiting outside the city gate,

When I saw the turbulent scene behind the Qiang army,

There were loud cheers,

It's just that whether it's Jiang Jian who is relieved,

Or a rejoicing Han soldier,

None of them noticed,

The Qiang army that retreated at this moment,

It's not going back the way you came,

Instead, in one direction,

drew a huge arc,

And it's not very fast.

This unusual situation,

but not taken seriously,

Jiang Jian saw that the other party had left a distance of nearly a mile,

Then he ordered the soldiers outside the city gate to return to the city.

10,000 soldiers are a large number,

And at the moment, under the agitation of the mood,

Inevitably a little chaotic,

The speed of returning to the city is not particularly fast,

It's just that Jiang Jian was in a hurry to check on Ma Xiu's situation at this time,

I didn't care about these things.

Just as he had finished commanding something,

When you are ready to go down the city,

Suddenly, a terrible scream came,

Jiang Jian was obviously stunned,

Raise your head sharply,

I saw a group of people wearing Han army uniforms,

Hurriedly ascended to the head of the city of Lijing,

Wielding the blade in his hand, he attacked the archers at the head of the city,

Archers are not melee classes in the first place.

And it happened suddenly, and many people did not react,

They were knocked to the ground.

Jiang Jian looked at everything in front of him,

Suddenly I felt extremely dazed,

Aren't these people in front of you those soldiers of the Ma family who entered the city just now?

Why did he suddenly sacrifice a butcher's knife to his own people at this moment,

At the moment of confusion,

Suddenly, a unique call sign of the Qiang people came into my ears,

Turning his head suddenly,

I saw a soldier wearing the uniform of the cavalry of the Han army,

Laughing wildly,

The broadsword in his right hand had just slashed an archer,

With his left hand, he took off his helmet,

Immediately revealed the shape of his head, which was draped in hair.

When Jiang Jian saw this person,

His eyes shrank suddenly, and he immediately thought of a result,

My heart was as cold as falling into an ice cave.

In later generations, whether it is a TV series or a movie,

Even on many print media,

When describing the hairstyles of ethnic minorities,

Most of the time it appears in the shape of killing Matt,

Therefore, many people are accustomed to thinking that the hairstyles of the steppe aliens are like this.

But in fact, taking the example of the nomads north of the Great Wall,

In the long history of 2,000 years,

It can be timeless.

These nomads are dressed in draped hair.

Although this is in line with the ancients' rather discriminatory perception of ethnic minorities "wearing their hair and leaving their hair",

But in fact, in the historical record,

The only northern ethnic minority with the characteristic of "shadow and hair" is the Qiang people.

It is recorded in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty and the Biography of Xiqiang: "Qianghu was sent to the left and mixed with the Han people, and the customs were different and the language was incomprehensible. ”

Although the Ma family has a very close relationship with the Qiang people,

But there are no pure Qiang people in the Ma family's army,

All of them are Han Chinese or mixed races with some Qiang blood,

They are all habits and Han Rao customs,

None of them wore a draped haircut.

At this moment, these soldiers of the 'Ma Family Army',

More and more helmets are taken off,

Revealing the style of the draped hair,

This is clearly a group of Qiang people pretending.

A tall figure walked quickly to the top of the city,

In front of him,

There is hardly a single enemy,

Countless Han soldiers were killed by him,

Jiang Jian looked fixedly,

Suddenly my heart tightened,

He recognized that the person in front of him was the arrogant Qiang king during the day, Lingnu.

There is no need for anyone to explain at this moment,

He also understood that it must be Matthew and others who were completely annihilated,

This group of people pretended to be Ma Xiu and other rao,

Come and defraud Lijing City.

But what he didn't expect was that

Originally, he wanted to use tricks against these Qiang people,

As a result, I didn't expect it,

These should be Qiang people who don't understand military law,

Such a beautiful ploy was unexpectedly unexpected.

Jiang Yin's face immediately became miserable,

Looking back and looking around,

At this moment, the archers above the city,

Almost all of them have been wiped out,

The bed crossbow and trebuchet were also in the hands of this group of Qiang,

began to kill the Han soldiers under the city,

All of a sudden, screams and wails arose from under the city,

Countless soldiers of the Han army,

In a daze, he was shot as a hedgehog,

Nomads are good at shooting,

After taking the weapons of the archers at the head of the city,

Facing the Han army crowded under the city,

You don't even need to aim at all,

As long as you pull the bowstring and shoot arrows at will,

You can easily hit the target.

What's more, there are still countless props prepared for the defense of the city on top of the city.

The power of the bed is spared, the crossbow is wood, the rolling stone and other things,

They all fell like raindrops.

There were still a large number of Qiang people in the city gates who blocked the way.

The city gate was narrow, although the Han army was numerous,

It is also difficult to break through in a short period of time.

To add insult to injury,

The Qiang army has now come full circle,

Looking back again,

Attack the Han army with a rain of arrows.

Looking at all this in front of you,

Jiang Jian's whole body began to tremble slightly,

He never thought of it,

It is not possible to steal chickens and rice.

It turns out that the self-conceived bamboo is in the chest,

In Be's eyes,

Instead, it has become a tool that can be used.

"Hahaha, Fang Cai is your "soldier, treacherous"? But I still remember that you Han people still have a saying called "plan will be calculated". I don't know if this king can use it properly? ”

Ling Nu waved the long knife in his hand lightly,

Shake off the blood hanging from it,

looked playfully at Jiang Yin, who was trembling with anger and shame,

He spoke proudly.

Jiang Jian looked at the arrogant and complacent Lingnu,

His eyes almost burst into flames,

Suddenly, as if I had figured it out,

His eyes instantly returned to his clarity,

The whole person finally calmed down.

"Gambling is a good means, I can't imagine that the Qiang people can also appear such a heroic figure now, but they are looking down on you."

Ling Nu Yang burst out laughing:

"Hahaha, there's a lot more you can't think of. In the future, I will see them one by one. ”

"In the future?"

"Yes, in the future! This king sees that you are also a talent, it is better to follow this king, and your glory and wealth are indispensable. ”

Jiang Yan's eyes shrank,

Looking at Lingnu's face with a hint of anger,

"Choking", pulled out the sword at his waist,

The sword is in the neck,

Jiang Jian shouted:

"My Han family only has a decapitated general, how can I bend my knees and be a slave!"

End, not at the chance to order slaves,

Jiang Jian turned his head and shouted loudly towards the east:

"I, Jiang Jian is ashamed of the lord, the court, and the subordinates! Now, thank you with death! ”

With a force in the hand,

The sword cuts the throat,

Jiang Jian died of anger suddenly.
