Yang Qifeng wants to kill into the city, how easy it is to say, not to mention that there are countless Qin troops chasing behind him, Yang Qifeng understands that as long as he rushes to the city, he will immediately be blocked by the Qin army that is attacking the city, and he can't enter the city, and the Qin army behind him will catch up again, and he will still have to fall into a heavy siege. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

Seeing that the situation was not good, he went around to the west gate again, and when he saw that the situation here was similar to the south gate, he did not dare to rush up to fight.

Yang Qifeng had no idea, and his more than 3,000 cavalry immediately became chaotic. These people saw that Lanzhou City couldn't enter at all, and there were heavy soldiers chasing after them, where they dared to stay, and they scattered all over the mountains and wilderness. Yang Qifeng wants to gather people, but it is impossible.

Wang Bao had already pounced on the Qin army with him.

Yang Qifeng stomped his feet in the stirrup, fought for his life, and led hundreds of cavalry around him to rush towards Wang Leopard, wanting to kill a way. Wang Bao had already been wounded, and knew that he was powerful, and he was not an opponent at this time, so he did not step forward, and commanded three thousand cavalry to surround him.

The two sides killed together, and due to the difference between the widows and counties, hundreds of officers and soldiers were immediately scattered.

Yang Qifeng fell into a siege, more than a dozen Qin soldiers surrounded him, a random gun, knocked him to the ground, because Yang Qifeng was still wearing iron armor, the gun could not penetrate, these Qin soldiers raised their horses, stepped over him.

Under the trampling of hundreds of horses repeatedly, Yang Qifeng led the horses and was trampled into a puddle of blood and mud.

After killing Yang Qifeng and dispersing the official army, Wang Bao led 3,000 cavalry and also participated in the siege battle. The Qin army increased in strength and attacked more fiercely.

The east gate was able to withstand for a while because of Ding Qirui's personal sitting, but the west gate and the south gate could not hold on, the two deputy generals were shot to death, and the rest of the soldiers fled to death, and no one desperately defended the city. So the Qin army finally climbed to the top of the city.

As soon as the second gate in the southwest was broken, the fleeing soldiers reported to Ding Qirui, who knew that Lanzhou City could not be saved. Escorted by his own soldiers, he ran down the city, and he didn't even have time to return to the palace, so he got on his horse and ran.

When he ran to the central street, Wu Heng also arrived and shouted: "The north gate has been lost, adults are about to get out of the city." Lanzhou City is gone. ”

So Wu Heng led a thousand men and horses, protected Ding Qirui, desperately broke through the south gate, and fled by grabbing the road.

Wang Bao immediately came to see Bai Qi: "General, the city pass has been breached, but Ding Qirui just broke through the south gate and fled to the southeast." Leave it to the general to decide. ”

When Bai stood up, he ordered: "Wang Bao, you take 3,000 men and horses to protect the king and princess of Qin into the city to rest, wait for my general's order, first settle the people in the city, and I will take the rest of the men and horses to chase Ding Qirui." ”

Wang Bao got the order, with 3,000 cavalry, came to see the King of Qin and Ji Mengdie, and said the general order of Bai Qi, the King of Qin nodded and agreed, and entered the city with Ji Mengdie.

And Bai Qi was non-stop, leading 6,000 Qin cavalry, and chased after him.

After Ding Qirui rushed out of the south gate, Wu Heng made a rough check, and there were only more than 500 horsemen left around him, and now he lost Lanzhou, so he had to go to Tianshui to stay temporarily, where there were still five or six thousand men and horses, who could save their lives. So the group rushed to the direction of Tianshui and ran down.

didn't run for long, he heard the sound of hooves behind him like thunder, and when he looked back, the dust was up, and countless people and horses chased after him, Ding Qirui was immediately frightened and flew out of the sky, and he vigorously pumped the war horse, only hating that the horse did not have wings.

These more than 500 people fled all the way, and many people secretly left the brigade on the way and scattered in the mountains and wilderness, Ding Qirui couldn't care about these at this time, he was just a thought, and if he fled to Tianshui, he could live.

Lanzhou to Tianshui, about 600 miles, Ding Qirui fled into Dingxi, but the foothold was not stable, Bai Qi's men and horses arrived, Ding Qirui could not resist, there were only hundreds of officers and soldiers in Dingxi City, not worth the Qin army to sweep. So Ding Qirui fled out of the city again.

Bai Qi led 6,000 Qin troops to conquer Dingxi and Longxi counties in a company, and Ding Qirui was embarrassed, and once fled 280 miles in one day and one night, and finally fled into Tianshui City on the third day.

There were thousands of officers and soldiers in Tianshui City, so Ding Qirui was able to breathe. Bai Qi stationed 6,000 Qin troops outside the city and immediately sent people to invite the King of Qin.

The people sent had just walked dozens of miles, and saw from a distance that King Qin had already led his men and horses.

It turned out that after the king of Qin entered the city, he immediately ordered the Qin army to count the treasury and collect money and grain. Wang Bao was puzzled: "King, we occupy Lanzhou City, why do we have to rush to investigate these if we don't settle the people first?" ”

King Qin said: "Although my Qin army occupies Lanzhou, it is impossible to garrison here, Gansu is a place we can't take care of at the moment, so killing and injuring the main force of the official army is fundamental." As long as the Qin army is in Guanzhong, there is no need to worry about the future, and this place in Gansu is still handed over to the court. Don't hesitate, after counting, immediately load the truck and transport it back to Guanzhong. ”

King Qin sent Ji Mengdie to assist, and it only took one day to complete the inventory of the treasury in the city. There were still two or three thousand good horses in the city of Lanzhou, and the Qin army was very happy.

The next day, the king of Qin led 3,000 Qin troops, carrying countless money, food, weapons, materials and horses, and began to return to Guanzhong.

Ji Mengdie was also a little puzzled, and asked King Qin privately: "King, Lanzhou is the confidant of Gansu, why don't we leave troops there?" It is also good to control the whole territory of Gansu. ”

King Qin said: "There are three difficulties in keeping troops in Lanzhou. First, it is not easy to defend the city with fewer soldiers, second, there are more soldiers, and it is not easy to supply grain and grass, and third, it is too far away from Guanzhong to rescue. With these three difficulties, we must not leave soldiers. ”

Ji Mengdie nodded: "But without the general's order, if we leave in a hurry, will there be changes?" ”

King Qin smiled and said, "It's okay, the general is here, and he will definitely give such an order." He was a visionary, and he wouldn't have left troops here. ”

So the 3,000 Qin army came all the way to the southeast and soon reached the territory of Tianshui.

Bai Qiyi was very happy when he heard that King Qin led the whole army and came with supplies, grain and grass, he didn't take care of these a few days ago, he only cared about chasing Ding Qirui, but he didn't expect King Qin to go with him. Bai Qi didn't want to garrison troops in Lanzhou, because it was remote, and the people of Gansu didn't know much about the Qin army, so it was not easy to win the hearts of the people.

Bai Qi took the king of Qin into the big tent and performed the courtiers, and the king of Qin ordered a banquet to come up, and the kings and ministers ate wine together.

This time in Lanzhou City, the Qin army seized a large amount of beef and mutton, goat milk and horse milk, as well as a lot of good wine, which were put on the table at this time, and everyone drank happily.

While drinking, King Qin asked Bai Qi: "General, how should we fight in this Tianshui City?" ”

Bai smiled and arched his hand: "Back to the king, the last general is not ready to attack Tianshui, he just wants to negotiate with Ding Qirui." King Qin smiled: "Negotiation? What is the general trying to achieve? Bai Qi said: "Gansu is mostly mountainous and hilly, and the terrain is complex, which is not conducive to attacking. Moreover, the people are scarce, the food is scarce, and the officers and soldiers do not attach much importance to this place, so we cannot garrison troops here. Therefore, I think that through this battle, I might as well reach a private agreement with Ding Qirui, as long as he can pay tribute to the Qin army on time, the Qin army can not attack Gansu. ”

King Qin looked at Ji Mengdie and Wang Leopard: "What do you think of this idea?" ”

Ji Mengdie said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Ding Qirui won't dare to agree, such an agreement, if the court knows about it, he will definitely be guilty of collaborating with the enemy, and he will be beheaded all over the house." ”

Wang Bao also said: "Even if Ding Qirui dares to agree, how can he explain to his subordinates?" After all, he is just a pacification envoy, not a figure who divides a province. ”

Bai Qi smiled indifferently: "This is to the point." I also know that he is afraid to call the shots, so I will give him a suggestion that I cannot refuse. ”

King Qin said: "Let him set himself up as a king?" ”

Bai Qi said: "Yes, but this self-established king does not necessarily have to be Ding Qirui." I've already checked, Ding Qirui's family lives in the capital, I'm afraid he doesn't have the guts, unless he is a beast and doesn't even care about his family. ”

King Qin said: "As far as the general knows, who has this condition?" Bai Qi said: "Now there is only one general around Ding Qirui, called Wu Heng, this person's ancestral home is Tianshui, and he has been a general in Gansu for a long time, and has great prestige. If Wu Heng can listen to the assignment of our Qin army and establish himself as king in Gansu, we will have an additional rear base. Not to mention anything else, a single war horse will benefit a lot. ”

When Wang Bao heard this, he was very excited: "This is great, if Gansu submits to the Qin army, we will have no worries in the future." ”

Ji Mengdie frowned: "Such a thing, if Wu Heng doesn't agree, isn't it a joy in vain?" At the very least, how to tell Wu Heng about this is a trouble. ”

Bai Qi seemed confident: "This matter is easy to do, I can write a letter and shoot the letter directly into the city, Wu Heng must know." ”

Wang Bao was stunned: "Shoot directly into the city?" Then Ding Qirui will also know. ”

King Qin nodded and said, "Just to let him know." ”

Bai Qi and King Qin glanced at each other and smiled knowingly.

Early the next morning, Bai Qi had already ordered dozens of letters to be written, and a hundred cavalry archers were shot into the city around the four gates.

Some of the letters fell on the city, and some of the letters fell on the streets, which were picked up by many soldiers and given to Ding Qirui, but many of these people were Wu Heng's henchmen.

He believes that the defeat of Lanzhou is mainly due to the tricks of the Qin army and the dispatch of the main force out of the city, but the main force was annihilated, making the defense in the city insufficient, so as long as it is held in Tianshui City, the Qin army will be blocked under the city.

I didn't know that just after breakfast, a confidant from the military academy sent a few letters and put them on his desk. Ding Qirui took a look, and the cover was the same, and it was written "General Fu Wuheng personally opened".
