22, tiger gall

Although Yan Xing and the others took advantage of Hu Qi's reckless pursuit and killing, they launched a surprise attack and completely annihilated this group of Hu Qi. www.biquge.info But he also injured three people, one horse fell to death, broke his leg, and two were wounded by a knife, although it is said that it is because he did not wear armor, but the combat effectiveness of the Han army Hu Qi can be seen from this how powerful it is.

Yan Xing and the others didn't know if there would be any Han cavalry patrolling around here, and they didn't know if the people and horses mentioned by the beautiful woman dressed as a man would come, but for the sake of safety, they still picked up their injured people, and immediately went on the road to the west, quickly leaving this place of right and wrong.

Because Yan Xing had been worried about the heavy snow blocking the mountain, he kept urging everyone to speed up on the road. This time, because he captured a Han army Hu Cai's live mouth, he could get the reality of the Huaili Han soldiers and horses from his mouth, so he didn't venture to explore the Huaili camp at night. It's just that the captive who took this Han army Hu Qi on the road was too eye-catching and easy to leak his whereabouts after all, so after torture all the information he knew from his mouth, Yan Xing was also merciless, and directly solved the life of this Hu Qi in the wasteland.

They infiltrated Sanfu this time, and although there were some twists and turns in the process, it was generally quite smooth. He returned a few days earlier than the originally planned time, but he was afraid that it would snow early after winter, and he had a few more wounded than when he came, so Yan Xing didn't dare to delay, and he was basically in a hurry.

After passing Chencang, under the leadership of the hijacked hunter, they once again crossed the southern vein mountain area of Longshan, and the hardships during this period do not need to be said, but because of the experience of the last crossing, Yan Xing and the others found the original old road, and finally crossed the mountains of the southern vein of Longshan without danger, and stepped into the land of Liangzhou before the first heavy snowfall.

And compared to going deep into the tiger's den and winning the joy of victory of the tiger, what surprised and delighted Yan Xing and the others was that they were welcomed by the first army of Xuanfeng like the return of a hero, Han Chang, who was the deputy general of Xuanfeng, personally led the team to greet him, and the smile on Han Chang's face became even stronger after seeing Yan Xingcheng's fearful performance.

After Yan Xing personally presented the garrison information of the Han army in Chencang, Chang'an, and Huaili obtained by Sanfu at the banquet, not only Han Chang, who was blue-eyed towards him, but even Wang Fan, who was sitting on the main seat of the banquet and had been watching coldly, also changed color slightly.

You must know that among the three teams sent out, only Yan Xing's team obtained the most fruitful information, and they all went deep into Chang'an. The other two teams are dwarfed by comparison, one of them has not returned yet, and has lost contact directly, and I don't know if it was lost in the mountains, or if it leaked its identity and died in the hands of the Han army. The other team was a little more lucky, but they only retreated back when they reached the Meiyang line, and when they crossed the southern vein mountain area of Longshan on the way back, they were attacked by wild beasts and suffered heavy losses, leaving only six people injured and returned. And Yan Xing's team can not only be regarded as the return of all the people, but also brought extremely important information on the number of Han troops and the deployment of defenses, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have made great contributions.

So in a "tiger courage" and "divine might" praise, Han Chang proposed to ask for merit for Yan Xing, and then proposed to make up for the song of the men and horses commanded by Yan Xing, although Wang Fan knew that Han Chang was buying people's hearts, but Yan Xing was indeed a great reward, otherwise how could he, the commander-in-chief, command the entire army of the Fengfeng, so he simply waved his hand and directly transferred two hundred men and horses to Yan Xing to make up for the shortage of the men and horses he commanded.

At this point, Yan Xing was in his camp at that time learning what Yu Xu, a famous minister of this dynasty, said to Zhao Hong, "Hearing the will is not easy, things are not evaded, and the position of the minister is also, and it is not intertwined, why not use sharp weapons!" It can be said that the bold words have basically been realized, not only in the selection of the front army, but also in the selection of the front of the deputy general, the favor of Han Chang of the Jincheng Han family, it is really "thousands of miles do not hesitate to die, once succeeded".

Although it is still just a military candidate at the moment, but before the war, he made miraculous achievements, and he was favored by the deputy general, everyone knew that Yan Xing, a newcomer who had sprung up in the army, would definitely be promoted in the future, and other generals in the army at the dinner party toasted and congratulated Yan Xing, and raised a glass to drink.

After the banquet, there was a series of generals in the army to invite Yan Xing to the banquet, Yan Xing, who could not be postponed, had to participate in the big banquet and small banquet in the next few days.

···

On the evening of the sixth day of return, snow slowly began to fall in the sky, and as time went on, the snowflakes became heavier and heavier, and finally it snowed heavily. Just after attending the banquet, Yan Xing, who was a little drunk, took four servants and returned from stepping on the snow at night.

was blown by the north wind like this, Yan Xing, who was still a little drunk, shuddered, and immediately came to his senses. It's the end of November, and it's December. As the weather turned colder, the heavy snow gradually increased, the road was difficult to travel, and the partial division that harvested autumn grain and attacked other counties in Liangzhou that had not yet surrendered can be said to be invincible, and conquered most of Liangzhou at once.

And starting from Longxian, the soldiers and horses attacking Huangxian all the way were also progressing smoothly, and they were directly pushed all the way to the city of Yongxian, but because the weather was cold, it was not suitable to move troops, and it was difficult to receive grain and grass, so they slowly retreated back.

Although there is still a battalion of Han troops stationed in Yongxian County, in the eyes of the coalition army, it is a soft persimmon, and this Yongxian County will be able to capture sooner or later.

As early as the first year of Emperor Huan Yongkang, when the Liangzhou Xian Zero Department invaded the Sanfu region on a large scale, they attacked and destroyed the Jingzhao Huya Camp and the Fufeng Yong Camp at once, killing more than 1,000 people. You must know that the Huya Battalion and the Yongying Battalion are the standing border guards of the Han Empire, and the other is the elite soldiers and horses used to guard the Mausoleum of the Three Auxiliary Emperors. Now it is beaten to a closed city and does not dare to fight, which shows what the elite army at the beginning of the Han Empire has eroded, and the current Han Empire is completely relying on the only remaining vitality to support the porous border defense line.

At present, the coalition army that is going well in the war can be said to be highly motivated, watching others receive awards for their meritorious service and the self-proclaimed heroic Liangzhou athletes are all gearing up, and they will only wait for the spring of the next year to march eastward in a big way, entering the Sanfu area and looting a lot of money.

However, Yan Xing knew that the Han army had not yet reached the point where it could be defeated in one fell swoop, and the small Hu cavalry force of the Han army that he met in the wasteland alone left a deep impression on Yan Xing with its fierceness and good fighting. And how the Huangzhong Yicong under Dong Zhuo, who was said to have defeated the Xiliang Jingcai led by Bian Zhang and Han Sui, would be good at fighting, Yan Xing couldn't help but have a deep concern about the overly arrogant atmosphere in the current coalition army.

Since ancient times, arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and this principle is the same no matter which army it is placed in. At present, he has not entered Sanfu, but he has defeated the Han army in Liangzhou and a small number of Han troops in the right Fufeng, which makes the coalition army a little carried away.

However, as far as the middle-level generals that Yan Xing came into contact with at the banquet these days are concerned, everyone seems to be carried away by the short-term victories in Liangzhou and Youfufeng in front of them, and they will definitely be able to capture Chang'an in the coming year, completely without the caution at the beginning, as for the defeat two years ago, everyone unanimously blamed the panic caused by the meteorite falling from the sky at that time, and deliberately ignored the Huangzhong righteous servants who broke the Xiliang army.

"It's only been a few days of stability and comfort, and I'm uneasy first, won't I become the Han Dynasty's version of the Liang Ren Worry Army!"

Yan Xing, who was thinking of danger in times of peace, laughed at himself in the snowy night, he didn't expect that his thoughts would be farther and farther he thought, and the more he thought about it, the more worried he became. But seeing that his camp is about to arrive, he doesn't think about it anymore, so let's go back to my tent and sleep peacefully.

Because it was already night, the camp gate was closed at the moment, and only the faint figures of soldiers on the arrow tower and the scattered campfires in the army behind could be seen. Thinking that he was about to return to his camp, Yan Xing sped up his horse, and the horse under his seat was like the one who had been given to him by the beautiful woman dressed as a man in the wasteland. At this moment, Illumina Yebai quickly opened his four hooves and rushed to the camp gate like a gale, leaving behind the riders behind him.

Yan Xingkan arrived near the camp gate, pulled the reins slightly, and Zhao Yebai stopped as if he understood his master's intentions. Yan Xing exhaled a breath of white air, looked at the soldiers on the arrow tower, and shouted loudly:

"Where's the sergeant on duty?"

The figure on the arrow tower moved, but there was no response, Yan Xing suddenly chuckled in his heart, if in the past, before he arrived at the camp gate, there were night vigil soldiers who asked loudly, and now he has arrived at the camp gate to ask loudly, why no one has responded. Yan Xing, who was already aware of the danger, suddenly pulled Zhao Yebai back a few feet, pressed the bow handle at the saddle with his right hand, and stared at the arrow tower with his eyes.

"Isn't it that the two newly transferred men and horses bombed the camp and took away my camp, but this is impossible, there are Gan Ling, Ma Lin, Yan Shun and others in the camp, where the camp can be easily taken away, and there is no sign of fighting at the camp gate!"

Just when Yan Xinghu was suspicious, the camp gate was opened suddenly, and two people came out of it, Yan Xing saw by the light of the fire on Diao Dou, it was Li Biao and Zhao Hong.

"I heard that Brother Yan went deep into Sanfu and was full of courage, why was he scared by me and the other two tonight?"

It was Li Biao, who was always heroic and unruly, who spoke out, Yan Xing must have been sure in his heart, although he didn't know the inside story, but the other party had no malicious intentions. He stepped forward with a slow smile and said:

"Why are you still in my camp late at night, and why are the sergeants on duty gone, could it be that the generals above don't give you military rations, and they want to come to me to be soldiers!"

This joke immediately amused the two of them, and Zhao Hong explained with a smile:

"That's not the case, but it was Brother Li who said that it was rumored in the army that you had infiltrated Sanfu, and you were guts, so I came to the army tonight to test it, wanting to see if my brother was really as others said."

"And what was the result?"

"Although it is not a gall, it also has a tiger guts!"

After saying that, the three of them looked at each other and laughed.
