Chapter 633
"Withdraw!" Shi Yong turned his heart sideways and said, "Retreat into Taiyuan City!" ”
"General?" The men didn't seem to hear clearly.
"Retreat! Retreat into Taiyuan City! Shi Yong roared.
"Yes......" his men were taken aback.
Knowing the death of Da Shan Yu, the people of the Qian tribe knew that they would not be Ran Min's opponents, and they no longer had the heart to fight, so they retreated directly. When Deputy General Gou saw Shi Yong's soldiers and horses retreating, he knew their purpose, and naturally he would not let go, biting Shi Yong's soldiers and horses to the death, chasing after them.
The Huns who went out to die and were wounded, and the others became the prey pursued by Ran Min's soldiers, and in the past, the Hu people also took hunting the Han people as a kind of fun, in their opinion, the Han people were no different from other hunted animals, and perhaps the biggest difference was that the Han people fled with two legs, while the other prey was four legs.
This is the family cycle, karma, the former prey, now become a hunter, the former hunter, but now become the prey. Those Huns who were in a panic either fell into the river and drowned, or died under the sword, compared to those Han people who were tortured to death by them, such a simple way of death may have been a great tolerance from God.
After a night of fierce fighting, both sides were already sleepy and lacking horses, Shi Yong's soldiers and horses were mainly foot soldiers, and no matter how much they ran, they couldn't outrun Ran Min's cavalry. Although Taiyuan City was almost close at hand, but it was only a road of more than 100 miles, the people of the Qian tribe did not have time to escape.
There was already a glimmer of light in the east, and at this moment, the sky was bright, and the people of the Qian tribe retreated in a panic, and they were attacked by Ran Min's army many times along the way, and they marched slowly. Once Shi Yong's foot soldiers formed a phalanx, Ran Min's foot soldiers spared him directly behind him and rode and shot from a distance. If they tried to escape, the cavalry immediately charged them. Along the way, the corpses of the Qiang people were strewn all over the place, and they suffered heavy losses.
"General! What to do? Ran Min's men have blocked our way! His subordinates hurriedly reported.
"Drop all baggage and retreat as fast as you can!"
"But no matter how much our foot soldiers run, they can't outrun the horses!"
"General, or we surrender!" Another said.
Shi Yong directly put the knife on his neck and said, "Whoever dares to say surrender again, he will immediately let his head fall to the ground!" ”
As soon as the words fell, his subordinates pointed to the hillside in the distance and said in a panic: "General! Look! ”
Everyone looked from afar, and on the hillside in the distance, a group of cavalry appeared, lined up, roughly, there were thousands of people, and the one who walked in the front was a scarlet, handsome war horse, which was clearly Ran Min's Zhulong horse.
"Ran Min!" Shi Yong recognized it at a glance.
The appearance of Ran Min cut off all hope for Shi Yong to retreat, and seeing this situation, Shi Yong knew that it was impossible to retreat with his whole body.
"Formation!" Shi Yong commanded his subordinates.
Shi Yong gave an order, and the drums in the army sounded like thunder, "Dong Dong Dong ~", and more than 10,000 foot soldiers under his command began to quickly form a formation and surrounded Shi Yong's middle legion. The phalanx was about a few hundred meters square, and the outermost row was a shield and a spear, the shield was stacked in three layers, and the spear protruded from the hole, and at first glance, it was an iron lump covered with iron thorns.
"Your Majesty, it seems that Shi Yong is ready to fight the trapped beasts." Vice General Gou said to Ran Min.
"He wants to die and the net is broken, and I don't want to pay too much!"
"Now that the Huns are scattered, it is impossible for the remaining Xiongnu people to escape no matter what! As long as you give an order, this bluffing phalanx will not be able to resist for long. Vice Admiral Gou said.
"No!" Ran Min waved his hand and said, "Send someone to shout to Shi Yong first, if he is willing to surrender, we will save trouble." ”
"The last general obeys!"
Shi Yong's men and horses were surrounded by Ran Min's cavalry one after another, and although they formed a phalanx, in the face of tens of thousands of strong bows and iron horses, all the people of the Qiang tribe were a little panicked.
"Shi Yong! Our Majesty has something to say to you, please come out and see you! ”
"Your Majesty? I, Shi Yong, have been loyal to Zhao all my life, and in my eyes, Ran Min is just a rebellious minister and thief! Shi Yong responded.
Ran Min's subordinates looked back at Ran Min, Ran Min signaled slightly, and his subordinates shouted again: "Shi Yong, don't do the battle of trapped beasts again!" Your Majesty remembers that you are a loyal and upright person, and you do not want to take your life! As long as you put down your weapons and surrender, leave the Central Plains with your families, and retreat to the outside world, Your Majesty will never embarrass you! ”
"Nameless junior! I don't care about you! Tell Ran Min to come out and speak! Shi Yong shouted.
Ran Min frowned slightly, rode forward, and said, "General Shi, long time no see!" ”
"Ran Min! Emperor Gaozu has never treated you badly to the Marquis of Xihua, and has given your father and son the title of marquis and king! But you are guilty of rebellion! What face do you have that stands between heaven and earth? Shi Yong scoffed.
"Since you know my surname, you should know that I have a deep blood feud with the Shi clan! Shi Hu killed my grandfather and the whole clan, but only saved my father's life! This gave me a chance to avenge my ancestors! Ran Min rode on horseback, looked at Shi Yong in the distance, and shouted: "The Qian people slaughtered more than 10 million Han people!" The Central Plains is full of calamities, corpses and bones everywhere, mourning is everywhere, we should rise up and resist! This is a matter of heaven! ”
"Even so, as a courtier, you should do your best, and then die. Wen is dead, and martial arts are fighting to the death! How can they all rebel like you! ”
"It's Shi Jian who really rebels! Not me! Ran Min reprimanded.
"But now the person who is the emperor is you, not His Royal Highness King Ning! If you are a loyal minister of the Zhao State, you should assist the new monarch to ascend the throne! Instead of dividing one side, set yourself up as king! Now, everything you say is in vain! The whole world knows you're a thief! ”
Ran Min secretly moved the killing machine, and his subordinates on the side shouted: "Shi Yong, don't be ignorant!" Your Majesty is looking at your past friendship with the Xihua Marquis Mansion, and kindly persuades you to surrender! Now you still have a while, if Your Majesty gives an order, you will definitely have no bones! ”
"Phew! Brag unblushingly! Shi Yong didn't appreciate it at all, and said: "If you want to fight, you will fight!" No more nonsense! ”
Ran Min didn't expect Shi Yong to be so stubborn, his arrogant and firm attitude deeply angered Ran Min, seeing Shi Yong like that, it seemed that he was ready to die and break the net.
"Your Majesty, what should I do?" The subordinate asked.
Ran Min was motionless, staring at Shi Yong who was a hundred steps away, but his right hand quietly pulled out an arrow, silently put it on the string, kicked his right foot, quietly pulled the bowstring with his right hand, and suddenly exerted his force, raised his right foot, leaned back, his right hand instantly released the bowstring, and an arrow shot out coldly.
"General!" The person standing at the front obviously noticed Ran Min's movements.
But Ran Min's arrow came too suddenly, and the force was also extremely great, directly penetrating a layer of shield, hitting Shi Yong's chest, Shi Yong didn't react to what was going on, so he snorted and fell directly to the ground.
"Kill!" Ran Min commanded coldly.
"Your Majesty has an order! Kill! The subordinate shouted.
"Fire Attack!" Vice Admiral Gou commanded his subordinates.
"Yes!"
In the face of the iron wall formed by the Qian, Ran Min's men and horses did not use the most stupid method to repeatedly attack, but used the simplest and very cruel means to deal with them.
"Prepare the oil!"
At the sound of an order, a pair of cavalry quickly swept outside the phalanx, and a can of fire oil smashed directly on the shield, and then, hundreds of rockets fired in unison, and the phalanx of the Qian people instantly turned into a sea of fire, and Ran Min's soldiers and horses broke their phalanx without much effort, and then hunted one by one.
