Chapter 1280: Breaking the City
The hunt was in disarray, and the horse fled.
He was a warrior and would not run away, but in the course of the battle, he was unfortunately shot by the bow of the Qin people and killed his mount, and he fell dizzy. His own soldiers rescued him and then escorted him directly to escape.
As soon as he ran, his bannermen also fled, holding their flags.
This further provoked the rout of the other Guizi soldiers, and by the time the hunter came to his senses, it was already too late. The defeat was like a mountain, and no matter how capable he was, he could not pull and integrate the defeated army, so he could only continue to flee.
Qin cavalry was in hot pursuit, and the five hundred patrol cavalry did not lose much.
They had excellent armor, sharp equipment, each armed to the teeth, and even their mounts, which were semi-armored.
Especially these people fight like madmen who rush to death, and they rush wherever there are more people, and under this madness, the Qiuzi people are their opponents.
"Five hundred horsemen broke 10,000 people, and my reputation for hunting was ruined!"
"Tutun, there are more than 3,000 Qin people, they are well equipped, we are just carelessly underestimating the enemy, blame the guy in Dashi City, he didn't wait for us to assemble the team before attacking, otherwise, we will definitely win." Several pro-soldiers comforted the hunt.
Far from the castle village in the desert, the defeat of the Guizi army left them with no chance to regroup.
Countless turtles rushed in all directions in order to survive.
But the damned Qin people only stared at the defeated soldiers who retreated to the Bachang River, as long as the defeated soldiers ran in other directions and fled into the depths of the desert, they didn't care, so more and more defeated soldiers scattered and fled.
He insisted on fleeing to the Bachang River, as long as he crossed the river, entered the Great Rock City or retreated to the Bachang City, then everything still had a chance.
Another soldier was shot and fell from his horse.
There were fewer and fewer people around him, so he had no choice but to give the order to discard the flag.
Finally saw the tug-of-war in front of him, and the defeated soldiers rushed over, kneeling by the river and drinking water.
hurriedly drank a few sips, and hurriedly continued to run, and the Qin army had already killed again.
After crossing the river, he continued to escape, although there were already some small villages and castles along the way, but he looked at the people around him, and he didn't dare to go in at all, but he was afraid that as soon as he entered, he would be surrounded by the Qin people and couldn't escape.
Finally, Big Rock is in sight.
"General, take shelter in Big Rock City!"
As soon as he thought about it, he found that a Qin cavalry had already accelerated and rushed towards Dashicheng from one side, and Dashicheng hurriedly closed the city gate in fright.
"Fuck." He scolded angrily, and had no choice but to continue to flee south.
But the Qin people continued to chase after him.
Zhang Shigui and the others chased all the way, and captured a lot of prisoners along the way, and when they arrived in Dashicheng, Monk Xu and they had already chased no one. A group of people from the city were shouting at the city under the big stone city, all kinds of threats, and some people even carried the head of Prince Suvab to display there.
"What's the use of this, could it be that the defenders of Big Rock City will not be able to open the city?"
"Not necessarily!" Zhang Shigui also had two horse ropes tied to his saddle, and on the two horses he captured, there were still seven or eight heads of Qiuzi people hanging on them, and four or five Qiuzi army prisoners were tied behind the horses.
Xu Xiucai also snatched a horse, cut off two heads, and followed by three captives.
After the defeat of many Qiuzi people, they were caught up by the Qin people and knelt directly to the ground and begged for surrender. Even a dozen Qin people can sometimes capture hundreds of defeated Qiuzi soldiers.
Zhang Shigui has been on the Silk Road in the Western Regions several times, and he still knows a lot about this side.
Sure enough, the princes of the city scolded below for a long time, showed the prince's head, and finally put arrows at the city, making a gesture of attacking, and the big stone city actually opened the city gate.
A group of Guizi people went out of the city and surrendered.
Previously, the city lord had ordered all the soldiers and horses in the city to intercept the Qin army with the Hunting Empire, who would have expected that the result would be so quickly defeated and returned, and they also saw the head of the prince of Dundo City, these people were really frightened.
More than 10,000 soldiers and horses, the hunt was defeated, and the big stone city is such a small city, do you have to rely on the people inside to defend the city?
"We surrender, we surrender! We don't know anything, we don't know anything. ”
The noble officials in the city begged for mercy from the princes, saying that they did not know about the prince's plundering of the Qin merchants, and they did not participate in the plan to send troops to intercept the Qin army.
I just ask the Qin army to let Dashicheng go.
The sons roared into the city, and Zhang Shigui hurriedly followed into the city. A group of people in the city, although they belonged to Daqin and became naturalized, they were still Fanzi after all, and the first thing they did after entering the city was to loot, and some people even wanted to set fire.
Zhang Shigui knocked the idiot to the ground with a spear, and then shouted to them to stop.
Several leaders of Fanzi were not convinced at first, and later Zhang Shigui told them that if they dared to rob in Dashicheng, it would be a violation of military discipline, and no one would be able to escape military law at that time.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have done a great job in breaking the city, but don't end up being punished. As long as you hurry up and restrain your subordinates and control Dashicheng, when this war is over, your reward will not be less, maybe you will be rewarded in the future, and you will still have the opportunity to be awarded official awards, don't make mistakes. ”
Several leaders of the Fanzi discussed it, and felt that it was also a bit reasonable, and before breaking many cities, Commander Xu did not let them rob, but directly confiscated the whole city, and then rewarded everyone.
"Everyone, if I were you, I wouldn't be so shallow-eyed, just staring at this little thing, Commander Xu is still chasing the enemy, Karma Hunting is the general of Qiuzi, if I am you, hurry up and catch up now, if you help capture Karma Hunting is a great achievement, in case you take advantage of the situation to take the city of Pull, it will be even more terrible, the city of Pullout is the second largest city in the country of Turtles, prosperous in commerce and trade, extremely rich, look back and evaluate the merits, then there are many benefits."
"But what about Big Rock?"
"If you believe it, hand over the big stone city to all the people in the lower part and the caravan, and we will help you defend the city, and the main credit for turning back is still yours."
The leaders of Fanzi discussed for a while, called the noble officials and rich merchants in the city, pointed at Zhang Shigui and said to them, "This is General Zhang Shigui of Daqin, from now on, he is the acting city lord of Dashi City, you all have to obey Zhang City Lord, if anyone dares to make trouble, they will all be killed." ”
The sons are gone.
Zhang Shigui became the temporary acting city lord, and he selected 500 people from a group of disciples and tun people to stay, plus the more than 100 people in the caravan, and temporarily took over the city defense, yamen, warehouses, etc.
Sitting in Dashicheng, Zhang Shigui appointed the caravan Li as the temporary county governor of Dashicheng.
"Xu Jialang, I appoint you as the acting chief secretary of the county."
Then he appointed a patrolman as the acting county lieutenant.
So the county ordered the county to be the county lieutenant, and these four chief officials were temporarily alive.
"I, I can't." Xu Xiucai shook his head.
Zhang Shigui patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is not a real award, it's just an expedient act, and besides, didn't you tell me before that you just passed the Xiucai exam, and Xiucailang is temporarily acting as the county master, what's not to do, don't you have confidence in yourself?" ”
Xu Xiucai was still hesitating there, but his grandfather said to his son, "Son, sooner or later, you will be admitted to the Jinshi as an officer, so let's act as a temporary agent now and try your skills first." ”
Everyone laughed, so Xu Xiucai rushed the ducks to the shelves, and in the midst of everyone's congratulations, he took over the temporary appointment of Zhang Shigui, the acting county commander, and became the acting head of Dashicheng.
