The siege team of the Qiang people marched extremely fast, and it took a hundred breaths to reach the front of the camp.

"One, two, three!"

The ten Qiang warriors shouted in unison, and then exerted their strength in unison. The siege wood slammed into the camp gate again and again.

"Bang", "Bang", "Bang......

There were only about three or five hits, and only a "click" was heard, and the plank in the middle of the camp gate was broken by the barricade.

Seeing this, the Qiang brigade, which was originally standing far away from the battlefield, suddenly became a big booster, and regardless of whether the main general gave orders, they roared and swarmed in the direction of the camp gate.

Seeing this, Jiang Wei knew that the time had come to retreat, so he hurriedly glanced at Liang Qian beside him.

Liang Qian understood, raised his arms and shouted: "Oh no! The camp gate is broken! Brothers, get out! ”

The Wei army on the inside of the camp gate had already been angry, and the two forces were fighting, almost wanting to go first. At first glance, when Liang Qian shouted, they spread their feet and turned around and ran, only hating their parents for having a pair of legs and feet.

The number of 500 soldiers is not much, and the order and route of retreat have already been practiced by the generals before. Therefore, although they were flustered in their hearts, they were able to evacuate in an orderly manner.

Jiang Wei single-handedly only covered after the break. Occasionally, a few fast-paced Qiang people wanted to come forward to intercept and kill, but they were all finished by him one by one. Seeing that the Wei soldiers, under the leadership of the Liang brothers, withdrew from the camp in groups of three or five, he also grabbed the horse's belly and left calmly.

In fact, the timing of his retreat was very appropriate, if it was a moment later, the two soldiers met each other, and then wanted to retreat with their whole body, it would be extremely difficult.

In the meantime, the camp gate without the Wei army guarding was already crumbling.

After all, Muba has more knowledge than the clansmen and knows the truth of pursuing victory. As soon as the front army took the camp gate, they immediately led more than 100 cavalry to open the mountain and march, and rushed into the Wei army camp first, wanting to completely annihilate the Wei army.

Unexpectedly, the camp was full of horse-blocking piles and barricades, which seriously delayed the march of the cavalry.

Mu Ba was furious, and waved the machete in his hand one after another, slashing at the rejection horse, but the rejection of the horse was heavy, and he couldn't do anything by chopping like this.

By the time the Qiang foot soldiers cleared the barricades, the Wei army had already broken three miles away, and was about to penetrate through the dense forest.

Mu Ba waved his horsewhip high, and was about to lead the troops in pursuit, when a Qiang man flashed out of the oblique thorn and grabbed his mount.

Muba recognized that the person who came was Ade, a warrior from his own tribe, and couldn't help but be furious: "Ade, what are you stopping me from doing? ”

Ade took out a large handful of copper coins from his bosom and said anxiously: "Muba, the Han people left in a hurry, leaving countless money, wine, grain and grass in the camp tent, you hurry up and take our warriors from the Mutun Department to guard the camp tents everywhere." I'm going late, I'm afraid I'm going to be preempted by people from other tribes! ”

I saw that the copper coin in Ade's hand was yellow and clear, shining in the sun, shining with the unique luster of metal, which immediately attracted Mu Ba's gaze.

He touched his chin, still hesitating in his heart whether to give up the pursuit of the Wei army.

At this time, Ade urged again: "Muba! Isn't that what we are waiting for to gather and raise an army? Now that the grain and grass in the army are about to run out, we must hurry up and occupy more circles for our tribesmen, so as not to cheapen the tribes of Erma and Pubu! ”

Seeing that he was urging like this, and the surrounding cavalry also showed expectant eyes, Mu Ba finally nodded, and immediately ordered the horse to turn around. In fact, he looked down on this group of Wei troops who were defeated without a fight, and he didn't think that they had the courage to kill back.

******

An hour later, Jiang Wei, Yin Xian, the Liang brothers and the county soldiers gathered in a dense forest seven or eight miles away.

This retreat was rehearsed in advance, and Jiang Wei counted them one by one, except for three people who fell and sprained themselves during running, most of the rest were very good, and their strength was completely retained. And as he expected, the Qiang people did not chase after him.

In any case, we have taken a crucial step.

But he knew that the second step next step, the night attack, was the most important thing in the plan. Out of caution, after Jiang Wei ordered the soldiers to rest in the forest, he led a few clever scouts to wander outside the forest to take precautions.

This day seemed to be extremely long, and finally it was completely dark, and Yin Xian and the Liang brothers couldn't hold it anymore, and came to discuss several times, wanting to launch a night attack.

Jiang Wei only shook his head and said, "It's still early now, I'm afraid that the Qiang people will be on guard." Don't worry, when they get drunk and sleep more deeply, then our army will suddenly attack, and we will definitely win the battle! ”

He is the chief general of the whole army, since he has a plan, Yin Xian and the others have no choice but to endure themselves.

Time passed, and finally it was the beginning of the ugly end.

In the river valley, a figure quickly passed by, and stopped sharply to the edge of the dense forest, where Jiang Wei was hiding. The person who came was Liang Qian, who was sent by Jiang Wei to spy on the enemy an hour ago.

Liang Qian ran all the way, already exhausted, but despite this, the joy between his eyebrows could not be concealed.

He licked his dry lips, and without hesitation, he said excitedly:

"Boyo, I... I've found out. Qiang... After the Qiang people seized the camp, they drank and carnivaled all night, and they could smell the strong smell of alcohol three miles away... They were making a fuss late at night, and now they were all asleep. There is no defense inside or outside the camp, Beryo, hurry... Gather the whole army and raid quickly! ”

Jiang Wei was overjoyed when he heard this. The wee hours of the morning are the most sleepy time for the human body, and the Qiang people have drunk a lot of wine, and they must be hungover and hard to wake up at this time, and the moment he has been waiting for has finally come!

"Order, the whole army assembles!"

Wei Jun rested for a day and a night, and at this time they were all full of energy, and under the scolding of Jiang Wei and the Liang brothers, they got up and lined up one after another.

It was already dark, and there were only stars in the sky. The cicadas in the forest are singing poignantly, and they can't stop screaming when they know it.

The more things came to an end, the more Jiang Wei didn't dare to be careless. With a solemn expression, he and the Liang brothers walked through the queues for inspection.

At the end, I suddenly heard a deliberately suppressed sob.

He followed the sound, and by the moonlight, he vaguely saw a young soldier in the back row bowing his head and sobbing secretly, judging by his age, he was probably only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Crying before the war was regarded as a bad omen, Liang Xu, as a military judge advocate general, was immediately furious when he saw this, and slapped the young soldier in the face, angrily reprimanding: "The war is imminent, you cry without authorization, disturb the heart of our army, do you know what crime to be guilty of?" ”

When the young soldier saw the arrival of the commander, he was taken aback, and hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, knelt down, kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, and said in horror: "The villain just misses his mother, begs the general for mercy, begs the general for mercy!" ”

This movement was very large, and it immediately attracted the surrounding county soldiers to compete to watch, and the county soldiers exchanged heads and ears with each other, and the buzzing sound in the formation was loud.

Liang Xu was even more angry when he saw this, and was about to have a seizure, but was pulled by Jiang Wei.

He knew that most of the soldiers in the county were honest farmers, and when they suddenly faced a big war at this time, they would inevitably panic and fear. This is human nature, and there is no way to avoid it. At this time, what they need most is appropriate relief and enlightenment, if they blindly use strong means to suppress, the effect is afraid that it will backfire.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Wei stepped forward to help the young man up, helped him pat the dust off his body, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled: "But are you homesick?" Actually, it's not just you, but I miss my hometown very much. ”

In order to maintain his authority in the army, the commander of an ordinary army will maintain a cold and majestic image in front of the soldiers, and will not say such words as "homesickness" under any circumstances.

Therefore, as soon as he said this, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. Even the three Yin Xian and Liang brothers were also dumbfounded when they heard this, and they didn't know what kind of medicine Jiang Wei was selling in the gourd.

Jiang Wei saw that everyone's attention was attracted by him, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "A certain is at home to support his mother." She often blamed me for going to bed late and hurting my body. If she had known that I had fallen asleep at noon today, and had slept all day and night, I wonder if she would have complimented me on it. ”

Listening to his vivid and humorous words, the soldiers around him couldn't help but let out a kind laugh, and many people thought of their mother's nagging on weekdays.

Jiang Wei said: "My father died early, and he was raised by his mother since he was a child. When she was a child, her family was poor, and she was reluctant to eat more, so she always gave me more porridge and grain in the pot, preferring to starve herself. I didn't understand my mother's kindness when I was a child, but I understood it when I grew up. Therefore, I respect her and love her, and I am willing to go to the soup for her. Soldiers, you also have parents and family members, dare to ask if you respect them and love them more than you cherish yourself? ”

When he asked, the soldiers began to discuss:

"It's nature!"

"Do you need to ask?"

"Honoring your parents is a matter of course!"

Jiang Wei waved his hand, and when the scene returned to quiet, Tuan Tuan turned around and said, "But there is one thing that needs to be taught to you. The Qiang people have always been brutal and easy to kill, you all know this. But you can know that once the Qiang people break through Shangtai City, the next target will definitely be Jicheng! My mother lives in Jicheng, which is guarded by high walls and thick walls, and I have no worries about the safety of her old people. However, many of us soldiers' mothers and families are scattered in the countryside of Jicheng and rural areas, and there is neither a city wall to protect nor a soldier to guard it. ”

As he spoke, his expression suddenly became excited:

"Soldiers, if our own mothers and our own families are in danger, will we be able to protect them?"

"Sure! How not to insure! ”

"If you don't protect your family, it's better than a beast!"

"Even if you are desperate to save your family!"

……

Seeing that the main general was impassioned, Wei Bing was deeply infected. For a while, the crowd was passionate, and everyone was a picture of righteous indignation.

Jiang Wei bowed his head slowly and said loudly: "Soldiers, our parents and family are looking forward to us coming home; But the Qiang people who invaded our hometown are still sleeping not far away. I am determined to destroy them all here, so that they will not be harmed by my fathers and fathers! I only want to ask you, are you willing to follow me and take this opportunity to exterminate the Qiang thieves and defend the country? ”

His words seemed to have extraordinary magical power, and suddenly ignited the anger in Wei Bing's chest. The Wei soldiers were all angry, and shouted in unison:

"I am willing to follow Jiang Zhonglang!"

"Exterminate the Qiang thieves and defend the country!"

"Exterminate the Qiang thieves and defend the country!"

"Morale is available!" Jiang Wei nodded secretly, then waved his hand and shouted: "In this case, the whole army will attack with me!" ”

******

The original camp of the Wei army has now become a paradise for the Qiang people.

During the day, in order to loot money, wine, grain and grass, and even to fight for a camp tent and a blanket, I don't know how many conflicts broke out, and even more than a dozen lives were killed.

When the supplies were barely distributed, the Qiang people began to drink and sing, singing and dancing for a while, so lively.

Mu Ba finally kept an eye on it, and in order to prevent the Wei army from killing the horse pistol, he sent more than ten capable men to wander around to investigate. These sentries were also dedicated to their efforts at the beginning, but after wandering for a long time, they did not see the trace of the Wei army for a long time, and they inevitably felt slack. In the evening, when the campfire was lit in the camp and the smell of wine and meat was heard, they could no longer contain the restlessness in their hearts and returned to the camp to enjoy themselves.

Even Muba himself has never seen so many fine wines, and its taste is far more mellow and clear than the wine in the clan, and under one bowl after another, he has already drunk and unconscious, so how can he restrain his subordinates? Not to mention the rest of the ministries.

******

Bundle the horse, wear the stars and the moon.

After a rapid march, about a moment in time, Jiang Wei led five hundred county soldiers and Kankan to the front of the Qiang camp.

Through the moonlight, Jiang Wei could see it clearly, and the Qiang people were really drunk, crooked, and lay on the ground.

He immediately turned on his horse and galloped to the camp gate.

The camp gate was smashed by the Qiang people during the day, and they were clumsy and could not repair it, so they even moved a horse-repelling stake and placed it in the middle, and used it as a façade.

Jiang Wei effortlessly pushed aside the rejection horse, and then took the lead, leading five hundred county soldiers to raise fire like stars and kill into the camp.

The Wei soldiers, led by Jiang Wei, galloped through the camp. They really hated the Qiang people, and they killed them whenever they could, and burned them when they met the camp.

Countless tents were burned to the ground, and in a short time, half of the sky was red.

Many Qiang people were burned to death in their sleep or choked to death by thick smoke.

The Qiang people lying outside were also unguarded, even though a few young warriors of the Qiang people who woke up shouted warnings and wanted to resist hard. It's just that in a hurry, it is difficult to form a queue, and even the weapons with you can't be found, so how can you resist the impact of the Wei army with a neat queue?

The spear in Jiang Wei's hand flew up and down, only picking the Qiang people who pierced their hands, and there was no one under the gun. Under his leadership, the morale of the Wei army was high, and they killed all the way from the back door of the camp to the front door, and then from the front door back to the back door, rushed back and forth three times, kicked 20 camp tents in a row, and killed and injured countless Qiang people.

For a time, the camp was filled with the sound of footsteps, killing, neighing, shouting, screaming, and the crackling of the wooden tents.

That night, the Wei army beheaded more than 30 leaders of the Qiang people, lit fire to the camp, and galloped back and forth.

The Qiang people were driven out and fled, burned to death, trampled to death, and the rest were surrendered. The chaos of the state capital, which was so terrible and shaking, was calmed down in three days.
