Qiangqu came to the south gate accompanied by several generals, and the soldiers whispered, as Qiangqu expected, the army was in turmoil at this moment, and if the general generals encountered this situation, they would be at a loss.

If the soldiers' morale is chaotic, no matter how brave and good the soldiers are, the combat power that can be exerted may be less than half of the original.

But Qiang Qu did not panic when he saw this situation, on the contrary, he still had a calm smile on his face. This kind of desperate situation is a great danger but also a great opportunity, a desperate situation can break a person's will, but it can also force out a person's potential, and Qiangqu is good at stimulating people's potential.

Today's grain and grass were destroyed, and it was the Qiang Canal that inspired the fighting spirit of the soldiers, and the soldiers fought to the death, so they could quickly capture the county seat of Guangning. It's a pity that although Qiangqu's plan is good, it is a miscalculation of his opponent. I didn't expect Zhao Yi to use this trick to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, causing Qiangqu to inspire the military spirit that didn't take long and collapsed in an instant.

It gives people a hope, and no matter how ruthlessly they take it away, there is nothing more cruel in the world. This successive blows dealt a great blow to the Hun soldiers, and their morale fell to a low point. Even more than this morning.

Qiang Qu saw the decadent expressions of the soldiers under the city in his eyes, and slowly spoke: "I think you already know about the matter of Guangning City, so I won't repeat it. ”

Some soldiers who prayed in their hearts that the news they heard was a rumor, and when they heard Qiang Qu's words, their hearts kept falling. They hoped that Qiangqu would call him and others to the south gate to shatter the rumors, and then Qiangqu ordered his soldiers to take out the grain and grass they had found. But he didn't expect Qiangqu to say such shocking news, which made the Hun soldiers a little unbearable, and secretly said in their hearts that if they knew that this was the case in Guangning County, they should go home when the grain and grass were destroyed.

But it's too late to say anything now, and now that he is already in Guangning County, he can only quietly listen to what the leader has to deal with.

Qiang Qu saw that the mood of the soldiers in his department fell again, and sighed slightly: "There is a shortage of food and drink in Guangning City now, and it is okay for the army to stay in the city for two or three days, if it is a long time, our soldiers may not even have combat strength." At that time, the sabers of the officers and soldiers will cut off our heads without difficulty. Therefore, we must take advantage of the fact that the officers and troops have just arrived and are not in a stable position, and take them by surprise. ”

When the Xiongnu soldiers heard Qiangqu's words, their faces showed a look of approval, and Qiangqu's words resonated with what the Xiongnu thought. What his leader said is right, he still has the strength now, and he may be able to fight to the death with the officials and soldiers, but if he stays in this Guangning county seat, he is afraid that he will be starved to death in less than a month.

The consciousness of survival spread in the hearts of these soldiers, and the previous decadent expression disappeared under the provocation of Qiangqu's words, and the strong fighting spirit returned to these soldiers, staring at Qiangqu with burning eyes one by one, waiting for Qiangqu's order.

"Command, Chief!" These Hun soldiers invariably said this sentence in their mouths, although their voices were not very neat, but Qiang Qu still felt the strong fighting intent from the soldiers' hoarse shouts, and the smile on his face was even worse.

If 50,000 outlaws are used properly, they can resist 100,000 male soldiers, and when Qiang Qu saw such an attitude of the soldiers of the department, he already thought of the spectacular scene of the soldiers of the department breaking through the encirclement of the officers and soldiers. With a wave of his big hand, he gave an order: "Okay, they are all iron-clad men!" ”

Qiang Qu praised and gave an order, gathering the elite soldiers of his department as the vanguard. This kind of breakthrough battle can only gather the elite soldiers of the department together, the first impact, as long as it can fight with the official army for a period of time, the follow-up troops will come again, Zhao Yi's department is only more than 10,000 officers and soldiers will soon be cut by their own iron cavalry.

Two hours later, the elite Xiongnu soldiers who had rested gathered at the south gate, and behind them were the rest of the Xiongnu soldiers.

Qiang Qu didn't say anything more, but waved his hand and gave the order to go out. With a clattering sound, the city gate opened, and the soldiers of the Qiangqu Department galloped out.

After leaving the city, they did not line up, but rushed directly towards Zhao Yi's officers and soldiers, and the Hun soldiers were loosely disciplined, like wild horses on the loose, shouting and rushing madly to kill.

Seeing the battle-filled Hun soldiers rushing out, Zhao Yi did not panic, with an unfathomable smile on his face, and with a wave of his big hand, he saw many soldiers holding shields and spears quickly walked out, and did not put out any special battle formation, but fought in two rows. This simple action made the war horses under the crotch of the Hun soldiers cower and panic, and this violent impact ended with the chaos of the war horses of the Qiangqu Division.

Qiangqu, who then drove out, was surprised to see the war horses in a mess, his own war horses were all strictly trained, and he was not afraid to deal with large-scale soldiers, but now he was not afraid of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers.

What the hell is Zhao Yi doing again? With this question, Qiang Qu looked up and glanced forward, and the formation of the officials and soldiers startled Qiang Qu.

The formation of the officers and soldiers was very simple, and the movements of the soldiers were unpretentious, and the only thing that surprised Qiang Qu was the spears held in the hands of the soldiers. This is the real spear, and the body of the spear is more than a foot long. Sticking out of the hole in the shield, it suddenly looked like a steel needle.

The war horse under Qiangqu's crotch saw the hedgehog-like formation of the official army, and also stopped and retreated in a panic. Although the war horse has been rigorously trained, it still has the instinct to survive.

Qiang Qu lightly pinched the horse's belly to soothe the horse's emotions, and waved his hand to order his soldiers: "Release the arrow!" The Hun soldiers on the city gate bent their bows and arrows according to Qiangqu's order, and the rain of arrows came in bursts, most of which were blocked by shields, but there were still arrows that shot through the gaps in the officers and soldiers inside, and the official and military formations were a little chaotic.

Qiang Qu turned over and dismounted, holding a scimitar in his hand: "Life and death are fighting here!" With a shout in his mouth, he rushed to the past, and the rest of the Hun soldiers followed suit, abandoning their horses and rushing towards the official army.

While the Hun soldiers were attacking, the rain of arrows stopped. The position of the officers and soldiers changed again, but instead of retreating, they continued to advance with shields in hand.

The spears poking out of the shield holes went in and out, and although the Hun soldiers were strong, they could not break through the shield array. Some of the Huns reacted quickly and cut off the spears that stabbed at them, but they could not dodge the spears next to them.

The Xiongnu soldiers and the official army attacked, and before the official battle with the official army, hundreds of people fell under the spears of the official army.

Zhao Yi waved his hand, and the Wuhuan soldiers of Wen Qin's department rushed out, and the shield soldiers in front seemed to have a tacit understanding.

The brigade of Wuhuan soldiers rushed into the Hun soldiers who abandoned their horses, which was simply like a one-sided massacre.

This group of elite cavalry did not attack for long in the group of Hun soldiers, only one back and forth immediately slapped their horses back, those Hun soldiers who had just climbed on the horses shouted and chased, but were stopped by the shield officers. Some war horses that couldn't control their speed rushed over, and even the people and horses were pierced with a few holes by spears, and the rest of the Hun soldiers saw the intestines flowing out of the soldier's stomach, and their bodies were still shaking unconsciously, and they raised their eyes to see the blood-stained spear head, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and didn't dare to go over.

"Chief, Zhao Yi's officers and soldiers have made strange moves, if the soldiers of our department continue to rush and kill, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties, why don't you go back to the city first and then do your thoughts!" The subordinate generals saw that the shield soldiers of the official army had the intention of surrounding their subordinates, and hurriedly persuaded Qiangqu. Two blows in succession wiped out the newly raised morale of the Hun soldiers, and at this time, the battle was a joke with the lives of their own soldiers.

If you retreat into the city, although you can ensure the safety of your soldiers, if you want to break through the encirclement of the officers and soldiers in the future, it will be a little difficult.

Qiangqu originally wanted to continue to rush and kill, but the officers and soldiers used their tactics properly, and in less than half an hour, the three thousand elite soldiers under his command actually lost one-third. He has no good way to break the formation, and if he continues to rush and kill, he will only increase the casualties of his soldiers. Qiang Qu thought twice in his heart, sighed, waved his hand, and ordered the soldiers to leave quickly.

Seeing the Qiangqu headquarters leaving, the officers and troops did not take advantage of the situation to attack, but returned to the same place. Wen Qin asked Zhao Yi: "At this moment, the Hun soldiers have been broken by our army, and at this moment, our army should take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill into the city." Why did they suddenly stop attacking? In Wen Qin's opinion, the official army is in full swing at this moment, and with the Wuhuan soldiers under his own department, it is not difficult to rush into Guangning County. Why Zhao Yi gave up the opportunity to attack.

Zhao Yi raised his eyes to look at the towering city wall, and gently pulled the reins to Wen Qin's side: "Qin Er doesn't understand the situation at this time, and not attacking is the best way." "The reason why the Hun soldiers were invincible was because of the flexibility of the cavalry. Now the flexible cavalry was locked up by Zhao Yi in the well-fortified Guangning County, and the city gate was too narrow, even though the Huns had 50,000 troops, but they could not all be deployed, for Zhao Yi, he didn't need to pay attention to how many Hun soldiers there were at the city gate, he only needed to deal with the more than 1,000 Hun soldiers who appeared in front of him.

What Wen Qin said was good, with the strength in Zhao Yi's hands now, it was not difficult to attack the county seat of Guangning. But there were 50,000 Hun soldiers in the city, and if he rushed in, wouldn't it be equivalent to a decisive battle with the Huns. Although the Huns did not eat in the early morning, the combat strength of the soldiers of the department should not be underestimated, under the desperate resistance of the Hun soldiers, not to mention that Zhao Yi did not have the confidence to win the victory, even if it was a victory, the officers and soldiers of the headquarters would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Zhao Yi explained the situation between himself and the Huns, and Wen Qin's face showed a look of understanding: "Your strategy is very useful, but it is a little vicious." ”

Malevolent? Zhao Yi smiled: "To be merciful to the enemy is to be irresponsible to yourself." "If Xiang Yu could kill Liu Bang ruthlessly at the Hongmen banquet back then, Wujiang would kill himself in the future.

The officers and soldiers were beaming, but the soldiers of the Qiangqu headquarters who retreated to the city were full of dejection. The attack was frustrated, and the soldiers were exhausted, and it was impossible to launch another attack in a short time.

Since Zhao Yi, who guarded the south gate, had such a position, it was expected that the city gate guarded by Tai Shici and others would definitely follow suit, so Qiangqu did not act rashly.

"Chief, the position of the officers and soldiers is advantageous, and the soldiers of our department cannot break through head-on, so they can only attack from behind."

A few words made the gloomy look on Qiang Qu's face change, and he hurriedly asked: "My soldiers are all in the city at the moment, how can I get out of the city?" ”
