The next day, early in the morning.

"Young master......" Beigong Yan was fascinated, and a loud scream came from his side, which startled him, and he turned his head with an ugly face and glared at his favorite general Hou Wudao: "Something's wrong?" ”

Hou Wu nodded his head and said, "Back to the young master, the brother in the back said that the tail was found behind us......"

Beigong Yan immediately got up with the police, couldn't help but be angry, and said, "Is it confirmed?" ”

"Yes, it has been confirmed, and I will follow when I cross the ruins of the Great Wall!"

Beigong Yan said again: "Who are they?" How many? ”

"Judging by the costume, it should be Huns, the number is not much, only a dozen, but ......" Hou Wu said with some worry: "The last general is worried, if they pass on our news, we will rush forward like this, and it will be easy to suffer!" ”

Beigong Yan nodded, pondered, and after a while, asked, "In your estimation, when will we be able to catch up with Dong Zhuo?" ”

Hou Wu said without hesitation: "Judging from the traces of broken grass and trees along the way, it should be possible to catch up with Dong Zhuo's broken soldiers and horses in about half a day!" ”

Beigong Yan nodded and said, "I think so too, only half a day, and the credit will be started...... Let's work hard, it's been a few days, and now that we've achieved fame, isn't it a pity to give up? ”

Hou Wudao: "It's a pity, but if we fall into the ambush of the Huns and suffer heavy losses, our Qiang people will not have much use value for Liu Zhang, will he oppress our people at that time?" ”

Beigong Yan shook his head and said, "This is unlikely, although I have only met Liu Zhang once and do not know his character, but if you look at the situation of the barbarians in Yizhou and Jingzhou, you will know that he has different views of us aliens and other Han rulers...... As for whether the Huns will ambush us, in my opinion, there is no need to worry too much, we have 13,000 Qiang warriors, and the Huns want to ambush us, let alone 30,000 horses, but so many people and horses can't hide in the grassland, once we find out in advance, even if we can't beat it, we will always have time to retreat! ”

"That'...... Does the young master mean to continue chasing? Hou Wudao.

"That's right, catch up and capture Dong Zhuo alive!" Beigong Yan waved his arm violently.

"Yes!" Hou Wu looked at the north palace and replied loudly.

"Tell the order to go down, the army will speed up, in addition, put the spies farther away, once Dong Zhuojun is found, come to report immediately, don't startle the snake, and let people carefully monitor the movement of the tail!"

"Yes!" Hou Wu left without saying a word.

In the afternoon, the warm sun shines on the grassland, and the withered yellow weeds glow a golden color in the sun.

Beigong Yan sat on a clump of withered grass, basking in the sun while swallowing the cold beef stew with clear water.

"Young Master...... The young master ...... "In the distance, a member of the Qiang general shouted while running: "Good news...... Young Master ......"

When Beigong Yan heard this, he immediately turned over, threw the water bag and beef to the soldiers, ran up quickly, and said eagerly: "Tell me quickly, what good news, did you catch up with Dong Zhuo?" ”

Hou Wu climbed over the peak and dismounted, bowed his knees and said: "The young master is like a god, the spies came to report and found a trace of Dong Zhuojun......"

"Haha...... Great......" Beigong Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said, "Tell me quickly, how far is it?" ”

Hou Wudao: "The spies reported that Dong Zhuojun's rear team was found ten miles ahead, there were about 1,500 people, and just like us, they were having a meal, and they hadn't set off yet!" ”

"Great, catch up with Dong Zhuo's rear team, and you won't be far from Dong Zhuo......" Beigong Yan nodded while laughing, and said: "In this way, you take three thousand people to quietly catch up with them left and right, and surround them when you find an opportunity, remember, leave a few live mouths to ask Dong Zhuo's whereabouts!" ”

"Yes!" Hou Wu came and went in a hurry.

Where did Beigong Yan still have the heart to eat, and shouted at his own soldiers: "Tell me to go down, the army will set off immediately, and the food will be left on the horseback and eaten slowly...... Tell the big guy, kill Dong Zhuo, each person will reward two cattle and sheep, those who capture Dong Zhuo alive will reward 300 cattle, and kill Dong Zhuo and reward 100 cattle......"

"Yes, young master!" The soldiers immediately conveyed Beigong Yan's order, and the 10,000 Qiang riders suddenly burst out with a tsunami-like cheer, and then like a hungry wolf who found its prey, 10,000 Qiang warriors jumped on their horses and galloped forward.

Hou Wu led three thousand Qiang to ride under the leadership of the spies and rushed to the temporary location of the Xiliang army.

As far as the cavalry galloping against the horses is concerned, the ten-mile road is just a blink of an eye, but Hou Wu did not rush over like this, because then he must be discovered by the Xiliang army from afar, and once they find out and turn around and flee, his task will not be completed.

After traveling five miles, the spies sent back the news that the Xiliang army had not yet moved. Hou Wu then ordered the army to separate, slow down and cover the Xiliang army from the left and right flanks, and then charge as close as possible to the enemy, striving to completely annihilate this group of enemy troops in one fell swoop.

Hou Wu's idea was good, but the empty grassland gave him a * annoyance. Just as Beigong Yan was not afraid of the ambush of the Huns, Hou Cheng wanted to ambush the Xiliang army, but the possibility was still very small.

Fortunately, Hou Wu did not have many men and horses, and the speed was not fast (the sound of horses' hooves was like spring thunder exploding, where was it hidden), which allowed them to reduce the distance of two miles, but at this time, it was impossible to approach quietly.

The soldiers of the Xiliang Army who were in charge of the vigilance finally discovered the enemy who was secretly approaching, and suddenly the alarm sounded, and the entire temporary station of the Xiliang Army was full of chickens and dogs, and some people were obviously holding the reins of their mounts in their hands, but they were in a hurry, because they were missing their horses; Some people only felt a weakness of their legs, and at this time the horses had not yet appeared, and the cavalry marched with all the strength of their feet to sit on their horses, so that the pain of marching was even worse than that of the infantry, and the faster the speed, the more so; Some people hurriedly climbed on horseback, and did not care about others, and fled after beating the horse; Some people simply drill directly into the deep grass, they have no strength to flee again, rather than being chased by the enemy and cutting off their heads, it is better to take a dangerous move, maybe the enemy is careless and does not find out? This seems unlikely, why? Because the power of example is infinite, and if one person burrows into the grass, there will be countless followers, and the large patches of broken dead grass will show their position......

The Qiang people, like the Xiliang army, suffered from a very serious physical attrition after several days of rapid marching, which can be said to be exhausted, but they are a people who grew up on horseback, and seeing that the enemy army has been defeated without a battle, they suddenly swept away their fatigue and rushed to the enemy not far away.

If the Xiliang Army is on the verge of collapse, then the Xiliang Army has collapsed, in the face of the enemy rushing to let alone fight, many people are powerless to even escape, so many people are very interested in throwing down the weapons in their hands early, and raised their hands at the moment when the Qiang people rushed to the front, of course, there are also warriors who intend to defend the honor of the Xiliang Army, and they raised the weapons in their hands with a little difficulty to prepare for the final fight.

The Qiang people didn't seem to have that much food to feed these captives, they resolutely raised their weapons in their hands, as long as it was the Xiliang army, they would attack, whether you raised your hands and surrendered......

In the endless screams and the blood that rose to the sky, those who raised their hands and surrendered looked back, it turned out that the other party had no intention of taking prisoners at all, once it was a critical time, people often burst out with unimaginable potential, these Xiliang Junyuan who were forced into a desperate situation were also ruthless characters, since they were certain to die, then they were no longer afraid, and they struggled to wave the weapons in their hands!

The battle did not last too long, after all, the Qiang people had an absolute advantage in strength, and their physical strength and fighting spirit were much better than those of the Xiliang army, and soon after the battle began, the main force led by Beigong Yan rushed to the battlefield and entered the battle. Half an hour later, except for more than 300 people who escaped, all the 1,500 Xiliang troops were cut off their heads except for thirteen captives, if it weren't for Beigong Yan thinking about interrogating Dong Zhuo, maybe these thirteen people would have become a headless corpse.

The tragic counterattack of the Western Liang army also dealt a great blow to the Qiang people, and after counting, 238 people were killed and 154 wounded, five of whom were injured by accidentally falling from their horses while charging.
