Chapter 21: The Tiger of Beauty

In Xiurong County in the north, the Erzhu River flows slowly, nourishing a lush natural grassland. Under the clear sky, a galloping horse galloped freely, the man on horseback pulling the reins in one hand and raising the other hand high above his head, with the sound of the wind flying by his ears, making a pleasant long whistle.

Behind the man, he was followed by several other horsemen in the distance, and they rode their horses and whips, following the man's pace.

After running for fun, the man finally stopped. When the people behind caught up, he said loudly in a loud and high-pitched voice, "I've decided!" We can't stay in the land of Xiurong all the time. The world is vast, the Erzhu clan should gallop the world, are you willing to follow me and go out for a while? ”

The man who spoke was born tall and mighty, and his spirit was magnificent. He is the leader of the Erzhu clan here, Erzhurong.

"Of course I do! To be able to dominate this world is not in vain! The men who followed enthusiastically responded to Erzhurong's proposal.

These are the children of the Erzhu clan, the cousins and nephews of Erzhu Rong - Erzhu Dulu, Erzhu Zhongyuan, Erzhu Shilong, Erzhu Zhao, Erzhu Tianguang......

"If there is chaos today, it is time for us to take advantage of the situation!" Er Zhurong's eyes were resolute, and he said domineeringly, "If you give me your life, I will take you to achieve some achievements!" ”

"I'll follow the lord to the death!" The crowd responded in unison.

"Good! Nowadays, the situation in the Great Wei Dynasty is unstable, and there are large and small rebellions and riots in various places. Take your soldiers and follow me to calm the turmoil around you, lay our foundation, and then plan for great things! ”

The Erzhu clan is known as the 8,000 cavalry, and it is a formidable tribal force in the north. Coupled with the business mediation of several generations, the Erzhu family has always had a good relationship with the Northern Wei court, and the title is hereditary.

Erzhu Rong is keen on hunting activities, but every time he organizes a hunt, it is unusual - with Erzhu Shilong, Erzhu Zhao and other little brothers, they all march and arrange formations, with clear orders and strict organization, and every time they go hunting, they have a lot of harvest; After the end, there will be rewards for meritorious deeds, rewards and punishments are clear, and there is no one in the clan who is not convinced.

This kind of shooting and hunting game when he was a child fully demonstrated Er Zhurong's innate military talent. His father, Erzhu Xinxing, once privately commented on his son, "This is a tiger cub, and when he has his claws and teeth, he will not be subservient to others forever!" ”

The times make heroes! Er Zhu Rongsheng was born at the right time - Empress Dowager Hu's rampant conquest and wanton behavior made the originally stable political situation in the Northern Wei Dynasty begin to be turbulent!

The treasury was empty, the ministers were in charge, turmoil broke out in various places, and many people with different aspirations gathered party henchmen to take advantage of the chaos to start troubles, and the Northern Wei Dynasty was stormy......

How could Er Zhurong let go of such a great opportunity!

At this time, he has inherited his father's position, and the vast world will be at his disposal!

Xiurong County is Er Zhurong's first target!

"Lord, among the four counties of Xiurong County today, Shicheng, Shilu, and Fuxian are all in the hands of the chaotic army, only Xiurong has not been captured, let's go out of Zhuchuan, how should we act?"

The questioner was Erzhurong's cousin, Erzhu Shilong.

Erzhu Shilong has always been a calm and cautious character, and he has been valued by Erzhurong.

"Do you need to ask? Wouldn't it be enough to directly lead troops to capture these cities! A rough and arrogant voice soundedβ€”it was Er Zhurong's cousin Er Zhu Zhao. But these brothers of the Erzhu clan like to call him by his Hu name - Tu Wu'er.

Although Erzhu Zhao is a generation younger than everyone else, and he is just in his early twenties, he is strong and strong, brave and fierce, and in the Erzhu tribe, he is known as a brave and unparalleled brave!

Er Zhurong has always liked his little nephew very much and appreciated his strength; Er Zhuzhao has always liked to follow Er Zhurong since he was a child, no matter what Er Zhurong says, Er Zhuzhao has always believed in his little uncle unconditionally.

"Tu Wu'er, siege is not hunting, where is it so simple. And just a few thousand of us, all of them are cavalry, how easy is it to attack the city? Erzhu Shilong said.

"Then I listen to the lord, what the lord says, I will do!" Erzhu Zhao didn't bother to think about these issues.

"Shilong is right, we are the people, going to attack the city is tantamount to suicide." Er Zhurong looked very calm, "We have always been known as 8,000 cavalry, in fact, you also know that the ones who can really be pulled out into battle are at most 5,000 horses." ”

"Do you know how many people are in Xiurong's rebellious army?" Erzhurong asked.

Er Zhu Zhao shook his head blankly.

Erzhu Shilong looked at Erzhu Zhao and couldn't help but sigh, "There are more than 30,000 people in the rebel army. ”

Er Zhurong nodded, "Yes, thirty thousand." ”

"And how is this battle fought?" Erzhu Zhao shouted.

Er Zhurong grinned, "Fighting a war is not a simple comparison of numbers. Although we only have 5,000, we are all warriors, and one is ten! Although the rebel army is numerous, it is a rabble, and it will be crushed with one blow! ”

"Lord, you can say it, you can fight it any way, and please make me a pioneer!" Erzhu Zhao began to rub his hands.

"We are cavalry, and we must give full play to the advantages of cavalry, interspersed with a wide range of circuitous and rapid assaults. Therefore, we must not attack the city, we must find a way to fight the main force of the chaotic army in the field! ”

"At present, there are about 20,000 rebel troops, and they are besieging Xiurong, we can take advantage of its unpreparedness and attack suddenly!" Erzhu Shilong suggested.

"Okay, let's show off our troops immediately!" Erzhurong ordered.

Xiurong City is not a big city, but after all, it is the seat of the county, and it is still a city with high walls and thick walls, so it is not easy to capture.

Er Zhurong took his troops and came to the outside of Xiurong City. I saw that the rebel army was encamped and surrounded the city tightly.

Picking a piece of high ground, Erzhurong climbed high and looked at it, looked at the camp of the rebels for a while, and laughed.

"Lord, what are you laughing at?" Er Zhu Zhao scratched his head and asked puzzled.

"These rabble, that is, relying on the large number of people." Er Zhurong pointed in the direction of the rebel army with the horse whip in his hand, "The camp is chaotic, the gap between them is too large, and there is a lack of care. And you see, the lord's tent is so conspicuous, and there is no proper guard, as if he were saying, Come and take my head. ”

"Good! I'm going to take the head of that guy and give it to the lord!" Erzhu Zhao was eager to try.

"No hurry! We have won this battle, but we must also win beautifully, and we must fight to fight the prestige of my Erzhu clan! Er Zhurong began to lay out tactics, "Shilong, you take a thousand horsemen and detour back to the left flank of the enemy; Tianguang, you lead a thousand horsemen to detour back to the right flank of the enemy; Tu Wu'er, you take a thousand horses, don't care about the others, give me a straight head into the main camp, and take off the head of the main general! ”

"When the left and right flanks see Tu Buer starting an assault, they must immediately cooperate to break in from both sides, remember, they must set fire to it and disturb the enemy."

According to the arrangement, the generals began to implement Erzhurong's tactics.

Erzhurong took the rest of the soldiers and ordered them to tie branches to the tail of the horse and gallop back and forth.

In the eyes of the rebels, the opposite side was full of smoke and dust, as if a large army was approaching, and it was inevitable that there would be a commotion. And their attention was completely attracted to Erzhurong's side, which allowed the cavalry on both sides to reach the designated position smoothly.

A whistle arrow screeched across the sky - it was the signal for the Erzhu clan to go to war!

Erzhu Zhao held a huge machete in his hand, with a thousand horses, and roared wildly towards the main general's tent, rushing straight to kill.

The enemy army is in a hurry to meet the battle - they didn't expect that Xiurong, who is only a lonely city, will be raided.

The machete in Er Zhuzhao's hand flew up and down, and where the blade reached, the severed limbs and wreckage, and the flesh and blood flew sideways! The warriors who followed him also fought bravely, slashing horses, guns and arrows, like a pack of hungry wolves, rushing into the flock, wanting to comfort their bloodthirsty souls with the blood and flesh of the enemy!

The enemy troops on both sides saw that the middle was being assaulted, and they panicked and prepared to assemble and go to support their main general.

But all their actions were completely expected by Er Zhurong.

The cavalry on both sides of the cavalry boldly and resolutely plunged into the noisy enemy armyβ€”like two sharp daggers, instantly cutting the enemy army apart like rags.

The flames rose like spirits dancing in ecstasy, devouring everything from the camp to the flesh and blood......

The commander of the rebel army is scrambling to get the soldiers to meet the enemy in formation. But in the midst of his restless, hoarse, futile shouts, a giant horse stained with the blood of his enemies, like a beast crawling out of the cracks of hell, appeared before his eyes.

And immediately there is an angry ghost! Er Zhu Zhao, who was covered in blood, his eyes were wide and hideous, and the machete in his hand was covered with blood......

This scene is enough to make the main general of the chaotic army tremble! He was incontinent, and urine was spilling on the ground; Another crimson liquid gushed out - the Lord was still standing, but his poor head had flown a few paces away.

Er Zhu Zhao picked up the head, picked him up on the tip of the knife, raised it high, galloped on his horse, and shouted loudly, "The head of the enemy general is here!" ”

In the face of such an army of tigers and wolves, where does the rebel army still have the will to resist.

There was no big loss at all, and Er Zhurong won the battle!

Leave Erzhu Zhao outside the city to collect the surrendered army and count the spoils. Er Zhu Rong took Er Zhu Shilong and proudly entered Xiurong City.

The beautiful county guard was full of smirk, and he was busy thanking Er Zhurong for saving his life.

Er Zhurong looked disdainful, and said contemptuously, "In the face of such a rabble, you almost caused the whole county to fall, what is the use of keeping such an incompetent person?" Pull it out and cut it, don't get in front of me! ”

The county guard didn't expect that Er Zhurong would be so unreasonable, so frightened that his legs weakened, and he fainted.

Er Zhu Shilong persuaded him, "My lord, no matter what the county guard says, he is also an official of the imperial court, let's kill him ourselves, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”

"Shilong, don't worry, if it weren't for us, this Xiurong County would definitely be occupied by the rebels." Er Zhurong said confidently, "Let's also share the worries of the court, it's too late to commend it, kill a county guard, they will pretend not to see it." ”

"Now Xiurong is our Erzhu clan," Erzhu Rong patted Erzhu Shilong's shoulder, "Let's stand on this, look at the world, and become Wei Wu's merits, it is unknown." ”

Er Zhurong's prediction was completely correct, and the Northern Wei Dynasty was in turmoil, and turmoil came and went. The Six Towns Rebellion, which drove the world, broke out a few years later.

The wheel of history begins to turn, and the heroes of the north and south in it will also usher in the most gorgeous and magnificent chapter in their lives!
