A few days later, an astonishing news spread through the grasslands and mountains: on the sixth day of the fifth month, the six kingdoms of Shandong would attack Qin in a big way, and the Rongdi tribe of the grassland would also raise troops against Qin on that day and jointly destroy the Qin state! The envoy of Zhao was beheaded by the envoy of the alliance and Cha Yunshan because of his opposition to the royal order declared by the envoy of the Wei League. The entire Rongdi settlement area suddenly became active, and the sixteen tribes that participated in the rebellion gathered 80,000 cavalry, all of whom gathered in the Taoshui River Valley, waiting for the sixth day of the fifth month of the fifth month, when the eastward advance was carried out.

On the fourth day of the fifth lunar month, the envoy of the leader of the Wei Dynasty once again presented a batch of jewels to the leaders, led his ten entourage guards and Chayun Shan Yu Yin to say goodbye, and returned to Wei to resume his life. It was also on this night that 50,000 iron horsemen of Zuo Shu Chang Yingqian drove out of the narrow river valley in the upper reaches of Weishui, and quietly moved to the dense forests on both sides of the Didao Gorge, the main road to the east, and ambushed them.

On the sixth day of the fifth month, the sky is clear and sunny. The 80,000 cavalry of the Rongdi tribe marched eastward like a tsunami. According to their speed and knightly tradition, they can drive to the mouth of Chencang Valley in one day, and if it goes well, they can also take Yongcheng with a drum. The envoys of Zhao Hou and the envoys of the King of Wei have already explained that all the troops of the Qin State are concentrated in the east, and there is no garrison to defend the west of Liyang! Therefore, the Rongdi cavalry did not even send the front ranger scouts, and the 80,000 army actually drove straight in.

The vast mountains in the upper reaches of Taoshui were originally called Daban Mountain, and they entered Liupan Mountain hundreds of miles to the east. In the middle of the two mountains, there is a large canyon, through which water flows, and on both sides of the river is the trail that horses and pedestrians have walked for thousands of years. This is the only way for Rong Di to lead to the Central Plains, and it was called Di Dao at the time.

The Taoshui flowing from north to south suddenly narrows after entering the canyon, but it can only flow down the mountain on the west side of the canyon, and there is a gravel slope more than two zhang wide on the east side of the river to connect the mountain.

The so-called Di Dao is a side road that is stepped on this gentle slope. Although this road is in the canyon, it is covered by water, grass and grass, which is very convenient for pedestrians to rest. Therefore, all the business travelers from east to west regarded Di Dao as a blessed road, and no one thought that this place would become the most dangerous military fortress.

However, Ying Qian, the commander of the Qin army, had his eyes on this canyon early. This was originally the base of the early Qin tribe, and Yingqian had been stationed in Longxi for three years, and he was very familiar with the mountains and rivers here. Just because Rong Di has become a subject of Qin, and the Hu people who are farther away are mainly nomadic in the north of the Yinshan Desert, and there has been no war in the western part of Qin for a long time, so the significance of the fortress here has been ignored by people.

This time to intercept Rong Di, Ying Qian naturally chose Di Dao Canyon without hesitation. Not to mention that this is Rong Di must pass through, only to say that the vast mountains and dense forests on both sides of the river, the slopes are not steep or gentle, the forests are not sparse or dense, which is convenient for charging and concealing, and it is really a wonderful place for cavalry ambushes that are difficult to find in the world!

Ying Qian divided the 50,000 cavalry into four ways to ambush, and ambushed 3,000 men and horses at the valley mouth in the north to block the retreat; 5,000 men and horses were ambushed at the mouth of the valley in the south to block the way out; In the west, the mountains are high and dense, and there is rolling water, so only 5,000 cavalry are ambushed, specifically to intercept and kill the enemy who has slipped through the net at the risk of dying; The remaining 30,000 main forces were all ambushed in the mountains and forests of more than ten miles on the east coast. Ying Qian was ruthless and wanted to eradicate all the Rongdi cavalry! He gave the most severe orders to the ministry, and whoever dared to let go of a Rongdi cavalryman would exchange his head for it!

The Rongdi cavalry entered the Taohe Gorge, still roaring forward shirtless with swords. When the canyon nearly 20 miles long was filled with 80,000 cavalry, the drums of war in the dense forests on both sides of the bank suddenly rose, the horns of the bull whistled violently, the rain of arrows rumbled down with the rocks and stones, and the black iron cavalry on the eastern slope of the mountain rushed to kill like a mountain and a sea.

The Rongdi cavalry was caught off guard, swirling and surging like a tide, but the iron cavalry was surging in front of and behind the horse, and they were intercepted head-on. To the west is the rolling Tao River, where there is no retreat and no escape. The main force of the Qin army on the east bank took 5,000 horsemen as a round, launching powerful charges wave after wave, and rushing into the canyon in turn!

The Rongdi cavalry has been famous since ancient times, and it has always been a big headache for the princes of the Central Plains. I had no choice but to meet the nemesis of hundreds of years, the old Qin cavalry, and suddenly his prestige was greatly reduced.

Since the demise of the Yin Shang, the Qin tribe, as the outcast of the Yin Shang, has become the only Central Plains tribe that has fallen into the Rongdi Ocean.

In order to survive, they were half farming and half herding, everyone was a soldier, fighting to the death, and the more they fought, the stronger they became, not only occupied almost all the river valleys in the upper reaches of Weishui Jingshui, but also killed the Rongdi tribe to make peace with them.

By the end of the Western Weekend, the 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry of the Lao Qin tribe had become a force for the Hu people in the west. When the king of Zhou You is faint, he pampers and praises, and wants to abolish the long and young; Prince Yijiu's uncle was a prince of Zheng State, so he joined forces with Rong Dihu to march eastward, broke through Haojing, killed King Zhou You, and supported Yijiu to ascend the throne.

Unexpectedly, Rong Di was ambitious, not only did he not leave Hojing, but also prepared to go east to the Central Plains. King Yijiu of the New Zhou Dynasty repeatedly issued the edict of King Qin, but the princes of the Central Plains were all old charioteers, and they were afraid of the Rongdi cavalry, and they did not come to the rescue of King Qin. In desperation, the new Tianzi Yijiu did not avoid hardships and dangers, and secretly trekked nearly thousands of miles to find the old Qin tribe. The leader of the Qin people, Yingxiang (Qin Xianggong), was extremely keen, and saw a great opportunity for this old Qin tribe to return to the Central Plains, and personally led 50,000 elite cavalry to secretly march eastward, and launched a life-and-death battle with nearly 100,000 Rongdi cavalry in the Haojing Field!

After three days and nights of fierce fighting, the Rong Dihu cavalry was overwhelmed, and only 30,000 or 20,000 remnants fled back to the Western Regions. Since then, the Qin people have become the founding princes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, but also the feared rivals of the various tribes of the Rongdihu people in the west.

In general, without the Qin State guarding the western gate of the Central Plains, it is entirely possible for Rong Dihu to repeatedly impact the Central Plains like a beast!

It is precisely because of this historical deterrent force that the unification of Xirong in the Qin Mugong era did not take great effort, and the unification of the western region was achieved by half fighting and half persuading surrender.

For more than 100 years after the reign of Qin Mugong, there has been no real war between Rongdi and the Qin people in the west. The Qin state was declining, and the Rongdi tribe was slowly reverence for the old Qin people. In this rebellion, they were even more convinced of the "Qin weak" evaluation of the secretary of Zhao State, and they raised troops to march eastward, but they were determined to win.

They really didn't expect that the old Qin State would have such a powerful and elite cavalry! When the rumbling war drums rolled all over the mountains like thunder, when the old Qin people provoked the loud and familiar shouts of killing deafeningly pounced, and when the black-pressed cavalry group came from the top of the high mountains and dense forests, the Rongdi cavalry suddenly fell into a panic.

Chayun Lao Shan Yu and a group of leaders were at a loss, and they didn't know which direction to charge? Soon, they felt hopeless. The fierce and powerful rush of the Qin State Iron Cavalry was obviously to kill the killers and cut them to the roots! Otherwise, how can we even ignore the Central Plains people's military training of "besieging the division and must be que"?

Seeing that they were going to die, the Rongdi cavalry fought desperately under the leadership of the leaders of various tribes. From noon to dusk, the canyon was full of bones by the rain of arrows and stones, and the north and south valleys were killed by the Qin army's iron cavalry to block the mountain road.

The rolling Tao River, which is close to the West Mountain, was actually stained red by blood! As twilight fell, the Qin army's iron cavalry phalanx turned into a scattered cavalry rushing to kill, torches were all over the mountains, and the war drums shook the heavens and the earth, no matter what the Rong Di cavalry shouted, the Qin army just took turns to kill, and it seemed that no one was allowed to live in front of them! Corpses were strewn all over the field, and blood was gushing. After the sun set, there were less than 20,000 remnants of the Rongdi cavalry. Their fighting spirit was completely overwhelmed, and they dismounted together, dropped their swords, and rushed to the river and fell to their knees together, screaming and crying.

The black iron knights surrounded, bloody swords hanging over their heads like a jungle......

Che Ying, who was covered in blood, trembled, and said in a low voice: "Zuo Shuchang...... Let them go. ”

Under the banner of the black Daxu, the left arm of the left man was still gurgling and bleeding, and he was holding the third bloody long sword in his right hand, and shouted with a fierce face: "Let it go?" They're all wolves! Wolf! - Cut off everyone's right arm and left foot and climb back! ”

Under the torches, the black iron horsemen lined up in a long road. More than 10,000 Rongdi knights slowly entered the iron cavalry road on foot, and every time they passed, there was a shining sword light and a terrible roar. When the moon climbed the mountain, the mountain plain outside the Taohe Gorge was full of bloody people with severed arms and stumps, and the roar of despair and pain was everywhere, and even tigers, wolves, and beasts avoided this terrifying canyon far away.

"Smack." The letter was gently placed on the table, and Qin Feng and Jing Jian were both panting, but their faces were very ruddy.

"Hahaha! My Qin State has become a state, and the western Rongdi has been wiped out, and I can't make big waves. Jing Jian smiled.

Qin Feng also smiled and nodded, after this battle, the Western Regions of the Qin State have been decided, and they only need to do a good job of defending the east. And this is also the time for their good offices.

"Zuo Shuchang is really a celestial!" Qin Feng gasped and said a little excitedly. He has been a special forces soldier for nearly ten years, and he has never experienced hundreds of thousands of troops. But even so, the murderous aura on Qin Feng's body was still very strong, but it was a fierce murderous aura, not the kind of murderous aura that experienced a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

"General. I'll go to Gongzi and Pang Juan to have a look. See how they all react. Qin Feng said.

"Good. I'd like to see what their expressions are. Ha ha. Jing Jian smiled.

When Gongzi returned from the general's mansion, he was so happy that he wanted to laugh and have fun.

When Pang Juan received the news of the annihilation of Rong Di's entire army, he was so shocked and angry that he smashed a jade tripod given by the King of Wei in his hand! For many years, no matter how embarrassing the predicament was, Pang Juan had never lost his temper. This time he couldn't help it.

Although he ostensibly disagreed with Zhao Chong's "two-sided attack" during the Six Nations Alliance, he actually attached great importance to it, and even knew better than Zhao Hou himself the importance of this move to destroy Qin.

He was always waiting for the reply of the envoy of Zhao State, preparing that once the appointed time, all the 100,000 iron cavalry of Wei State would drive to the Lishan camp, and then capture the Qin capital Liyang and occupy the entire Weiping River, so that the other five countries were helpless.

What is strange is that how can the Rongdi tribe dare to raise troops to march east without an agreed situation? He was shocked, how could the Qin army have such a powerful combat power, and it actually annihilated Rong Di's 80,000 cavalry with one blow? He was angry that the king of Wei did not allow him to dispatch the great plan to destroy Qin, thus delaying the timing.

After the alliance of the Six Kingdoms, in order to weaken the influence of Zhao Hou's "two-sided attack", he proposed to the King of Wei to enter the army as soon as possible. But the king of Wei didn't listen, and Gongzi Wei also tried his best to advocate waiting for the Rongdi rebellion agreed by Zhao Hou, saying that Wei could reduce bloodshed. The result?

stepped on the air, but it was really inexplicable that the Qin State was the first to eliminate the troubles and free up troops to face the enemy.
