Chapter 189: Breaking the Western Regions (3)

The atmosphere of Gaochang City is a little dignified, the traders who come and go are not as enthusiastic as before, and the rest is only silent and hurried, and on the doors of the four gates of the city, the bloody heads are constantly swaying with the wind, like the bacon hanging in the winter of the farmer's house.

In addition, the pedestrians on the road are also in a hurry, and all the people will hurry back to their homes after finishing their work, and occasionally some people who go out of the city against the wind will also be strictly investigated.

Since Li Chengqian took control of government affairs, there will naturally be no shortage of resistance against violence and the pursuit of freedom, but loose resistance does not have much meaning in front of the formed army, only a lot of blood flows, which has become the material for the Tang Dynasty to kill chickens and set an example.

A few days later, the Tang Dynasty gradually began to become numb to these resistances, and resistance, suppression, and killing seemed to have become the main tone of this army.

Wars of aggression are never just and merciful, their justice and merciful wisdom are applied to those who obey, and to those who resist.

Naturally, there is no need to say more.

There were fewer and fewer rebels, more and more obedients, and gradually, the kingdom seemed to suddenly quiet down at a certain point, although abrupt, but not so unexpected.

Immediately afterwards, Li Er's goldfish talisman and the order of Gaochang Territory were also brought over, followed by Hou Jun's 50,000 iron horsemen gathered on the grassland, and more than 300 officials also came.

After the soldiers were well fed, Li Chengqian began his plan for the Western Regions.

Within a few days, the Anxi Protectorate was quietly established in Gaochang City, and Li Chengqian served as the governor of Anxi, and the commander-in-chief of Gaochang Military and Political Affairs.

As for the officials of the forty-six towns of Gaochang, after the Tang officials arrived, they were also kicked down by Li Chengqian, and then each county, county, and township set up academies, and all boys and girls over the age of five and under the age of fifteen must enter the academy to know Chinese and write Chinese characters, and the things they learn are also very standardized, such as the first Chinese characters that children know, which is Datang, and then, I love Datang.

There is oppression, and there is naturally resistance, but the resistance of the ordinary people, a few whips, naturally become much more honest.

It turned out that Gaochang, which was happy and rich, seemed to have turned into hell in an instant, and prices skyrocketed for a while

It's just that this situation didn't last for a few days before it was suppressed by Li Chengqian, and after a few unscrupulous profiteers were dried into bacon, prices suddenly dropped.

Gaochang finally stabilized after a month, but the surrounding small countries suddenly became a little helpless after hearing that Gaochang changed hands, in their hearts Datang has always been greedy, like a Pixiu who can never eat enough, who will be next after Gaochang is occupied, it is naturally self-evident.

Yanqi!

The general in charge of the defense around Yanqi is named Xu Guangyi, he is the first batch of military generals with Li Chengqian, he has the ability, ability, and naturally arrogance.

After he had routinely checked the nearby sentry posts, he led a total of 1,000 men under his command to ride horses and look at the three thousand soldiers of Yanqi who were facing the enemy on the other side of the river, and pouted, the whole country has only 3,000 soldiers, so I am afraid that all the guards in the inner court have been transferred out.

In the face of such a loosely defended army, which has never fought a hard battle, a charge is guaranteed to scatter them.

Then there is the work of destroying the country, when did this work of destroying the past become so easy?

Pouted, no matter what happened here, he turned around and led a group of cavalry under the frightened gaze of the Yanqi people, quietly left, with a grin at the corner of his mouth, he glanced at a few pro-soldiers on the side, and turned around and walked towards the large camp not far away.

As soon as the hour passed, the entire battalion jumped out at the same time as if they had installed an alarm clock, and quietly boarded their war horses in the dark night.

Outside the Yanqi camp in the distance, several men dressed in black carried a few bags of sand and soil, constantly swaying on the surface of the river, and in a short time the one-zhang-wide river channel was paved.

The roaring sound of horse kicking suddenly sounded, and more than a thousand Tang people wearing black armor suddenly appeared on the edge of the river, and then the torches were suddenly lit, and a group of sergeants stationed by the river were about to shout, but they were pierced by the sudden arrow feathers.

After all, he still woke up the Yanqi people in his dream, and the warning horn had just sounded, and the Yanqi generals had just walked out of the tent and watched a group of shadows in the dark night rush into the barracks like a torrent.

***************

"The left army listens to orders! Three hundred men circled and intercepted the enemy!"

Xu Guangyi pointed at the blade, and the people who were originally mixed together separated in an instant, and turned to gallop in another direction.

At this time, there was only the sound of horses' hooves trampling on the ground, and the sound of armor crashing. Xu Guangyi squinted slightly, there were three thousand people in front of him, and there were only seven hundred left on his side.

The two teams separated, approaching the Yanqi camp, and more than a dozen soldiers on war horses suddenly rushed out of the array, and the next moment they stopped their war horses, and the longbows in their hands wrestled violently.

The arrow flew over their heads and into the chest of the soldier on the watchtower, before being carried out of the watchtower with great force and falling heavily to the ground.

At the same time as a few arrows, several black-clad captains suddenly rushed under the door of the mansion, and with a flash of fire in their hands, a black object was suddenly thrown in front of the door of the mansion.

On the other side, a trace of solemnity flashed in Xu Guangyi's eyes, and he quickly urged the war horse to gradually speed up and get faster and faster-

In the dark night, the heart is constantly beating steadily, as if through the chest, at the moment of crossing the river, the horizontal knife in everyone's hands has been drawn out very naturally, the black night, reflecting the cold blade, seems a little cold and solemn.

"Boom!"

A huge thunderclap came from the camp gate, and the spear and shield soldiers guarding the camp gate were immediately swept over by the air wave, the fire flashed, and the wooden horse was instantly blown apart.

The soldiers of the Tang Army smiled and gently drilled the horizontal knife in their hands, kicked the stirrups under their feet, leaned forward, grabbed the reins with one hand, and stared at the roaring bonfire in the distance!

Just a moment closer to the camp.

"Kill!"

Xu Guangyi was the first to rush into the barracks, and both sides of the house gate and watchtower were all full of arrow feathers at this time.

War horses, horizontal knives, and figures rushed down.

Those Yanqi people turned around and wanted to leave, shouting indecisively, and the sergeants in the rear also began to assemble into a formation, Xu Guangyi took the lead, raised the horizontal knife in his hand, and rushed towards the military formation without looking.

Led by a few Yanqi people raised their guns to stab, Xu Guangyi raised his knife to rung, and the war horse with a huge momentum slammed the shield behind him into the air, and only then did he roll to the ground, the black shadow pressed over, and the horizontal knife was waved left and right.

The Tang army's military formation was not chaotic at all, and in the wide camp, a torrent gradually formed, although occasionally someone fell, but the footsteps did not pause at all, and the horizontal knife in his hand flew around, like a huge drill, hatefully drilled into the human army formation, and was spread in a blink of an eye.

The blade extended, the sword flashed, and the head flew.

In the Yanqi barracks, the horn of warning sounded, and the two torrents gradually merged together, and the viscous plasma began to spread wantonly. The Yanqi people in the distance also reflected at the same time, holding the scimitar in their hands and slamming into the Tang army that rushed in, and then being slashed away by the horizontal knife, but at this moment, the Tang army was riding hard again, just fighting with the Yanqi people and killing from the other side.
