Chapter 31 The Storm Rises in Hanzhong
Early the next morning, Xiahou Yuan took Liu Ye to Zhang Liao's fortifications, under the command of Liu Ye, the small force was divided into several groups to disperse and assault, inducing the God of War crossbow in the camp to release arrows, testing the longest range of the giant crossbow, leaving dozens of corpses, before quietly returning to the city.

"Ziyang, how's it going?" In the tent, looking at Liu Ye, who was frowning and contemplative, Xiahou Yuan said with some expectation.
Liu Ye didn't speak, but took a pen and wrote and drew on the paper, and said helplessly after a long time: "Our army's thunderbolt can shoot up to 300 steps, that is, to build an earthen platform, at most only 360 steps, far less than the enemy's giant crossbow, and it is extremely difficult to build an earthen platform under the cover of the enemy's giant crossbow, but it is better to directly advance the thunderbolt to within 300 steps." ”
"It can't be!" Xiahou Yuan frowned and said: "I have seen their arrangement, and they have also tried to attack from other directions, there will be a giant crossbow every thirty steps, which can shoot three arrows at a time, our catapult can't advance as far as two hundred steps at all, and before it gets close, it has been destroyed by the opponent's giant crossbow!" ”
"Not necessarily." Liu Ye shook his head with a smile and said: "Our army has been carefully probed in Jingzhou, although this giant crossbow is powerful, but every time it is reloaded, it is extremely laborious, as long as we can block a round of attacks, we have enough time to push the thunderbolt into the attack range!" ”
"Ziyang said it easy, but how to block it?" Xiahou Yuan smiled bitterly, the attack of the giant crossbow is real, not to mention the flesh and blood, even if it is a thunderbolt, under the attack of the giant crossbow, it only needs four or five units to shoot together, and it will be reduced to a ruin.
"The enemy's defensive camp has given Ye some inspiration, and I want to ask the general to transfer all the craftsmen in the general to me, and within a month, I will help the general break the enemy!" Liu Ye said confidently.
"Oh? Good! Xiahou Yuan nodded when he heard this, although it has been a little longer, but there is hope after all, isn't it?
The time of January, not long, not short, with Lu Bu entering Luoyang, the eyes of the whole world are attracted by Luoyang Lu Bu and the battle of Jizhou, Lu Bu has not moved since he entered Luoyang, and the battle of Jizhou is strangely concentrated in the Yecheng area again.
Hanzhong, Zhang Lu has not had a good time recently, somehow, the Qiang people in the west poured in, greatly destroying the existing ecology of Hanzhong.
Zhang Lu educates the people with the Wudou Mi Sect and governs Hanzhong with a **** situation, which has always achieved good results and has little turmoil, but with the influx of these Qiang people, these Qiang people who poured in do not believe in the Wudou Mi Sect, coupled with the people's rejection of the Qiang people, Zhang Lu was overwhelmed by these things during this time.
I heard that these Qiang people are in Wudu, Tianshui near the Qiang people, because they are unwilling to accept Lu Bu's naturalization, over the Qinling Mountains, into Hanzhong, Zhang Lu treats the people leniently, for these Qiang people, they are willing to accept, but many Qiang leaders asked Zhang Lu to divide a place for them to cultivate, which makes Zhang Lu very difficult, after all, the Hanzhong Plain is such a big place, Hanzhong itself is overcrowded, where did the excess land come from to these Qiang people, can only let these Qiang people and Han people live together, but in this way, Conflicts between each other are inevitable, Hanzhong is founded by religion, since it is a religious country, the purpose is to guide rather than to be bound by law as Guanzhong, and therefore, during this period of time, all parts of Hanzhong have been busy mediating Qiang and Han disputes.
Yangping Pass, which is the northern gateway of Hanzhong, as the guard of Yangping Pass, Yang Ren was also made a big fire by this gang of Qiang people, but Zhang Lu ordered not to use swords against the people, Yang Ren was on fire in his heart, and had to suppress the fire, as the first general under Zhang Lu, he would rather lead his troops to Wuguan to fight with Hao Zhao's real sword and real gun, but unfortunately, although Lu Bu is now in charge of Luoyang, Zhang Lu is a little flustered, but he does not plan to send troops to provoke Lu Bu, Yang Ren is a dignified general, and he can only do some work here to mediate people's livelihood.
"General, it's not good!" On this day, Yang Ren was inspecting the pass when a soldier suddenly rushed over.
"What?" Yang Ren was bored in his heart, and couldn't help frowning.
"Let's fight!" The soldier shouted: "Those Qiang people have a dispute with the people, and there is a fight near the water!" ”
"Bastard!" Yang Ren's heart was on fire when he heard this, and he snorted angrily: "Then don't you send someone to mediate?" ”
"There can't be mediation, there are hundreds of people this time, and the troops who went to mediate have also been beaten!" The soldier said bitterly, and at this time, Yang Ren realized that the soldier's face was also blue.
"Presumptuous, reverse!?" Yang Ren couldn't help but be furious: "Gather the soldiers and horses, follow me out of the city!" ”
There was already a breath of anger in his heart, and at this moment, seeing that these damn Qiang people even dared to fight his own subordinates, he was immediately furious, and went down the city wall, someone brought a war horse, Yang Ren directly transferred five hundred troops and hurriedly rushed towards the outside of the city.
On the bank of the water, I saw a large group of people gathered together in the distance, beating each other, those Qiang people were fierce, one by one as fierce as tigers and wolves, although the number of people was inferior, but the surrounding people and the soldiers who came to mediate were beaten to the ground, one of them was eight feet tall, the face was like a heavy jujube man was particularly fierce, with his bare hands, but the dozen officers and soldiers who beat him could not get close.
Yang Ren couldn't help but be furious when he saw this, and urged him to step forward, shouting fiercely: "The Qiang people are barbarians, don't stop yet!" ”
As he spoke, the war horse had already rushed forward, and the spear in his hand went straight to the red-faced man who had beaten the fiercest.
"Good time!" The red-faced man saw Yang Ren killed, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, he didn't dodge or dodge, at the moment when Yang Ren rushed over, he dodged and avoided, and at the same time grabbed Yang Ren's spear, in Yang Ren's angry gaze, his arms exerted force, and in an angry roar, he took him off the horse alive and fell to the ground fiercely.
Yang Ren only felt that his entire back was about to crack, his head was dizzy, and he wanted to fight back, but the other party had already taken out a short knife from his waist and crossed his throat, and the five hundred soldiers who followed Yang Ren around him were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward and surrounded everyone, but they didn't dare to step forward because they were afraid that Yang Ren was in the hands of the other party.
"Trumpet!" The red-faced man turned a blind eye to the knives and guns pointed at him around him, and shouted coldly.
Behind him, a Qiang people quickly took off a horn trumpet from his back, puffed up his cheeks and blew it, Yang Ren saw this, but his face changed, the horn horn was finely made, extremely elegant, by no means ordinary people Qiang tribe can have, trying to turn his head, trying to see the other party clearly, and at the same time said sharply: "Who are you?" ”
"You'll find out in a moment!" The red-faced man slapped over, making Yang Ren's head dizzy, and a pair of tiger eyes glared at the surrounding Hanzhong soldiers and horses: "Don't move, wait for me obediently!" ”
Those people who originally fought with the Qiang people also found out that something was wrong at this moment, and wanted to slip away, but they were restrained and tied together by a group of Qiang people who came with the red-faced man.
Soon, along the direction of duty-free, a group of soldiers and horses, black clothes and black armor, the number is small, but the momentum is clear, on a horse in front of them, an ugly man wearing a scribe's uniform, with soldiers and horses.
Those black-armored soldiers and horses were armed with crossbows, and after the ugly scribe came, they didn't say much, and quickly surrounded the five hundred soldiers, and the cold crossbow arrows pointed at the Hanzhong soldiers and horses who showed panicked faces.
"Disarm!" The red-faced man sneered, waved his hand, and the Qiang people behind him became well-trained at the moment, and quickly approached, in the hands of a group of panicked Hanzhong soldiers and horses, quickly took down their weapons, and some people wanted to resist, but these Qiang people were extremely vigorous, and they took away the opponent's weapons in a few clicks, and the lord was captured, and the surrounding people were pointed at with crossbows, and these Hanzhong soldiers and horses were quickly subdued and tied together after symbolic resistance.
"Are you the centaurs of Guanzhong?" At this time, Yang Renna didn't know that they were calculated.
"A little bit of insight!" The red-faced man smiled and said, "I'm the champion Hou and sit down to break the Qiang Zhonglang General Wei Yan, remember it for me." ”
"Hmph, conspiracy, not a good man, you have the ability to fight with me!" Yang Ren said angrily.
Wei Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and was about to speak, but the ugly scribe over there spoke: "General Wenchang, the business is important, if you want to learn, wait until we take Yangping Pass." ”
"Good!" Wei Yan grinned, and with a wave of his hand, someone came up and took a round ball, broke Yang Ren's mouth, and directly stuffed the ball into it, followed by tying Yang Ren's hands behind his back: "Shiyuan, let me go next, you take the soldiers and horses and wait for my signal." ”
The ugly scribe was naturally Pang Tong, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Then Pang Mou is here waiting for the general's good news." ”
Wei Yan threw Yang Ren away, looked at the Hanzhong soldiers who had been confiscated, and said sharply: "Take off all the armor on your body!" ”
Yang Ren was stunned, as if he understood something, and struggled frantically, but was kicked and dragged down a few times, and a stretcher was brought and Yang Ren was thrown on the stretcher, seeing Yang Renyou struggling with anger, Wei Yan stepped forward a little impatiently, and hit Yang Ren's neck with a heavy blow, knocking him unconscious.
"Don't take it off yet!" Turning his head to look at a group of Hanzhong soldiers, Wei Yanhu was stunned: "Twist and pinch, are you waiting for a girl?" ”
There was a burst of laughter behind him, and a group of Hanzhong soldiers had a look of shame and anger on their faces, but people were swordsmen and I was fish and meat, and when they saw the crossbowmen around them forcing up with fierce eyes, they could only take off their military uniforms with a look of grievance.
Wei Yan waved his hand and asked the Qiang people who were fighting with him to quickly change into the clothes and armor of these Hanzhong soldiers, while Pang Tong asked people to take ropes and tie these Hanzhong soldiers together as prisoners.
Wei Yan was tall, and he couldn't find a suitable armor for a while, so he could only find a similar armor to wear, which looked a little nondescript.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, a soldier had already handed over his big knife, and arched his hand towards Pang Tongyi and said, "Shiyuan, we'll see you in Yangpingguan." ”
"Help the general to open the banner to victory!" Pang Tong said with a smile.
Wei Yanlang laughed, let people carry the stretcher, led Yang Ren's war horse, and walked towards Yangping Pass. (To be continued.) )
