Chapter 138: Escaping Death (I)
Yurong lowered his head, looked at Shi Xiu, tears fell again, and said: "Brother Geng, when you led the troops to fight against the Qiang army, Brother Shi Xiu suddenly woke up, and when he heard the shouts of killing, he asked me to help him take a look." Brother Shi looked at it from a distance, worried, and said that our army had been surrounded by Qiang soldiers, and there were many bad lucks. I hurriedly asked what to do, Brother Shi was very weak at that time, he gasped and said, the totem of the Qiang people is a sheep, and the sheep are afraid of tigers, if there is a tiger roar at this time, it will definitely be able to scare the Qiang army away, but where is the tiger at this time? I listened and said that I could ventriloquist and imitate the voice of a tiger and wolf. Brother Shi didn't believe it, I learned a few times, Brother Shi was overjoyed, and said that everything is left to you. With that, he fainted. Speaking of which, Yurong's tears were like beads with broken threads, banging, like falling on a silver plate, falling non-stop.
Geng Gong was very moved, he looked at the unconscious Shi Xiu, held his hand, and said, "Brother Xiu, you must hold on!" You once said that staying in Luoyang is like a fish in the shallows! Now, the elder brother has finally arrived at the border, and the dream of going to the Western Regions is not far away, how can you be missing all this? I still want you to give advice and charge into battle......" Speaking of this, Geng Gong couldn't cry anymore, and when the Han soldiers saw it, they were all moved, their morale was high, and they were willing to fight to the death with the Qiang soldiers.
The Han army ran all the way in the vast night, and the sound of horses' hooves shattered, stirring into a stream of blood. Faintly, there seemed to be a Qiang soldier shouting and chasing after him. Geng Gong was overjoyed and said in a deep voice: "As I expected, Mi Wu found that there was no tiger, he was annoyed and angry, he will come to chase him, let's run quickly and lead them to the gourd valley, hmph, even if he has thousands of troops and horses, it will be useless to go to the gourd valley!" ”
The Han soldiers rushed more and more quickly, deliberately discarding weapons, banners, and armor on the ground. Seeing this, Migo roared: "Yes, there was no tiger just now!" It's clearly a trick of the Han soldiers! We chase them up and chop them into puree! The Qiang soldiers cheered in unison, and without time to think about it, brandished their sabers, and chased after them.
After chasing, he suddenly entered a canyon, and was shocked, and said: "If the Han army intercepts the two ends, and then throws down stones and torches, won't we be finished?" "If you want to drink the order to retreat, half of the Qiang army that can enter the canyon has already been, and there is nothing unusual, if you suddenly retreat, it will mess up the lineup, Mi Wu has no choice but to let it go, staring at the two big eyes, looking left and right, and the hair stands up one by one. After walking for a while, the field of vision was wide, it was a flat land, my heart was a little wider, and suddenly I saw that there was an army next to me, and I couldn't tell clearly in the night, he expected it to be the Han army, and he didn't ask much, so he led the army to kill it. The two armies were fighting, and suddenly heard a person shouting: "Qu Shuai, Qu Shuai, don't do it, don't do it, your own people, your own people!" ”
When I heard it, it was Yao Guo's voice, and after a closer look, it was really my own people, and they were busy drinking and ordering their subordinates to stop, but it was too late, and there were hundreds of casualties earlier. The two armies converged, and Mi Wu asked, "Yao Guo, why are you here?" What about my brother? ”
Yao Guo sighed: "Qu Shuai, after you left, suddenly in the southwest corner, a Biao army was killed, extremely brave, we were caught off guard, and they actually killed us up the mountain." I hurriedly ordered the soldiers to surround tightly, but Dongwu was unwilling, he said that such a surrounding, but aroused the fighting spirit of the Han soldiers, they will fight to the death, it is better to let go of a corner, let them escape, we will be supplemented by ambushes, suddenly kill, from the rear pursuit, not afraid of not killing the Han soldiers! ”
Mi Wu stumbled and said: "My brother is really confused, the Han soldiers are about to break through, you leave a corner, are you not fulfilling their wishes?" ”
Yao Guo said: "I couldn't resist him, so I had to loosen a corner in the southwest, and then set up an ambush on the main road." However, waiting left and right, I didn't see the Han army rushing out, and I was puzzled. At this time, a soldier came to report that the Han army had broken through from the northeast corner! I was astonished, it turned out that the Han army knew our plan, and they would plan it, knowing that after we divided our troops and ambushed, the siege of the mountain would inevitably be relaxed, and the strength would be further weakened, so they would kill from the other side. I hurriedly told Togo to order troops to chase after me. I don't know how long I chased before I saw the Han army, the Han army fled lifelessly, and after a while, it was gone! We were very strange, so we followed the canyon and drilled into it, I saw that the canyon was very small, only three horses could be ridden in parallel, and the mountains on both sides were towering, and I knew that something was wrong, and said to Dongwu, let's withdraw our troops, the Han army is afraid that there is an ambush here. Dongwu refused, saying that he had been chasing for a long time, and the success or failure was in this move, how could he give up his efforts. I had no choice but to bite the bullet, but fortunately, nothing happened. Out of the canyon, a wide in front of me, I looked up, surrounded by mountains, and said to Dongwu, the terrain here, very much like a cloth bag, the mouth is small, the belly of the bag is wide, if there are soldiers to seal the mouth, and then ambush the soldiers on it, attack it with arrows, there is no way to avoid, there is only a dead end. Togo refused. Suddenly, a Biao army arrived, and I hurriedly sent to lose the blockage, and the army was killed for a while, and suddenly disappeared, and I knew that there must be another exit in this cloth bag, so I went to look for it. Qu Shuai, at this time, you led the troops to arrive, the night was thick, it was dark and difficult to argue, we were already frightened bow soldiers, a melee, and please forgive Qu Shuai. ”
Mi Wu sighed: "Yao Guo, if my brother listened to you, how could he let the Han people escape?" However, because these Han people were surrounded, the Han Dynasty did not hesitate to raise divisions, and even Geng Gong came, I heard that he was the captain of the Han Palace, and he was responsible for defending the emperor on weekdays, could it be that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was on the mountain? Alas, I still keep what promise, besiege but not attack, it seems that the will of heaven is so, and there is nothing to be done! What about my brother? ”
Yao Guo said: "Qu Shuai, don't you know Dongwu yet? He knows that he has miscalculated, how dare he come to see you? ”
Mi Wu shook his head and said: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, Dongwu wins, but can't lose, this kind of character, how can we unify the Qiang tribe and regain our territory?" ”
Yao Guo hurriedly said: "Qu Shuai, the sky is now slightly bright, let's get out of this valley quickly!" ”
Mi Wu nodded, and immediately organized the Qiang soldiers, a thousand people in a column, and slowly retreated. When the first group of soldiers had all entered the canyon, they suddenly found that the canyon had been blocked by stones and dry grass, and the Qiang soldiers were terrified, and shouted in unison: "Go back, go back, this road is not passable!" Then he shouted and pushed back. The Qiang soldiers in the back were inexplicable, only knowing that they were moving forward, and the Qiang soldiers were in a mess for a while. At this time, suddenly many Han soldiers poured out above the canyon, the first three generals, Geng Gong in the middle, Fan Qiang on the left, Li Cheng on the right, all holding swords, like gods, Geng Gong laughed and said: "Mi Wu, you have been tricked, die quickly!" After speaking, with a wave of his hand, countless rockets fell from the sky, and the canyon burst into flames, and the Qiang soldiers were huddled together, unable to escape, and were burned to death. Mi Wu and Yao Guo hurriedly led the Qiang soldiers behind and fled into the valley.
