Chapter 187: Blood-stained mountains and rivers are full of white bones

After sighing, Ha Shiqi returned to his normal mood. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he stood on the high slope and saw the scene of Jiping's defeat and escape, and his nose was crooked. After a while, he watched in amazement as the Han army scattered all over the mountains and fields where Jiping had surrendered and killed his pawns, and Ha Shiqi straightened his nose again. At this time, he was secretly glad in his heart, fortunately because he was wise and martial, he couldn't resist going down to this troubled water just now.

At the critical moment, he was able to hold back his greed and did not make a move, this Ha Shiqi was selected as the vanguard general of the Eastern Liaodong Route Army, and he really had two hits. In this world, it is difficult to figure out what others are thinking, the so-called human heart is separated from the belly, knowing the person and the face but not the heart. However, the hardest thing is to know what is in your heart. If a person can know what he thinks in his heart and can put it into action, then he must be an outstanding hero in the world. This Ashina Hashiqi, although he can't read a single big character and is barbaric and cruel, but at the critical moment, he can really grasp his heart, and he is indeed a hero for a while.

Grasping the true thoughts in your heart sounds simple, but this thing is really difficult. Many people have never figured out what they are thinking in their lives, but they think they know.

Now, Jiping has been defeated, and next, it is the turn of the Tuliao people to fight and fight an even more tragic battle with the Han army. Ha Shiqi can be the vanguard general of the Eastern Route Army, and he naturally has two brushes on the march and fighting. One of the skills of this Ha Shiqi is that the ability to grasp the fighter on the battlefield is very accurate.

This Ha Shiqi took advantage of the fact that the Han army had just defeated Jiping's surrender at this moment, and after a big battle, the soldiers were tired, and the formation was also a little scattered due to the pursuit, he led 20,000 Tuliao cavalry and poured down directly from the hillside, wanting to take the opportunity to defeat the Han army in one fell swoop.

Ha Shiqi calculated very accurately, and the timing was also in place, if the commander of the Han army changed casually, he might have to be killed. It's a pity that today's Han army commander is a rare genius in hundreds of years, Han generals.

Ha Shiqi's skills have been honed in countless battles, and it can be said that the times create heroes. If there were no Han generals, Ha Shiqi could also be called an immortal general. It's a pity that he met General Han today.

No one has ever known who his master is, and he doesn't even know his origin. I only know that this person is twelve or nineteen years old, and he is still very depressed, staying on the streets all day long, eating and drinking everywhere. Some people saw that he was a talent, and they also recommended him to make a living so that he could survive. Unexpectedly, this Han general left a sentence: "How can a big husband be a fly and a dog!" After that, he just brushed his sleeves and left, but he would rather wander and be free, begging for food and make a living, rather than doing these subordinate jobs to make a living. Instead, it made the good Samaritan angry.

The bird's nest knows the ambition of the bird, and it is a sensation in the world for ten years.

But she asked her husband what he wanted.

The Nine Dragons roared and thundered, and the wind and clouds would turn into dragon tours!

Finally, when the opportunity was ripe, General Han was recognized by Xiao Chengwei and recommended to Liu Lai. At that time, Liu Lai held the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, trusted Xiao Chengcheng or Failure, and worshiped General Han as a general. Then the Han army, under the leadership of the Han generals, was out of control, and in just over a year, it laid a huge territory. Liu Lai also had the foundation of the emperor because of it, and he was able to leap to the title of King of Han.

General Han is such a military genius! A prodigy who wanders the streets every day, eats and drinks everywhere, and has been in a mess for more than ten years, but he can recruit troops in hand and dare to surprise the world! In front of the Han generals, any famous general will be overshadowed, and any famous master of the art of war must also have his noble head under his head and be careful.

However, at this time, Ha Shiqi really didn't look down on General Han, he thought that with the 20,000 Tuliao iron cavalry around him with the "explosive arrow" in his hand, it was enough to dominate the world.

This Han general designed to defeat Jiping's soldiers, how could he be defenseless against the Tuliao people behind him. Sure enough, when the Tuliao cavalry poured in, General Han grinned at the corner of his mouth, waved his hand violently, and unveiled a big meal specially prepared for the Tuliao people a long time ago.

When the 20,000 cavalry of Tuliao poured from the hillside, the Han army was lying in ambush on the side, and the 5,000 foot soldiers who had not been used also reacted, and they took out the waist crossbows that had been hidden behind their backs. Then there was such a spectacle on the battlefield, five thousand foot soldiers sat on the ground together, pedaling crossbows with their feet, and winding them.

Then the first round of ultra-long-range strikes began. Although the "explosive arrows" of the Tuliao people were powerful, they all fired them with horse bows. If you want to shoot far, you must shoot it out with the speed of the horse, but the riding shot is originally poor, and then throw, where the arrow finally falls, can only rely on luck.

The only problem is that the winding is slow, and the energy consumption is huge, a soldier will be tired and panting after two shots, so the rate of fire is too low, and the enemy rushed in, and it completely became a chicken rib.

However, this problem was not difficult for General Han, and he specially arranged three soldiers for each waist crossbow. These three soldiers take turns to be in charge of winding and firing. In this way, one person winds, two rests, and three people take turns, and the rate of fire of the waist crossbow is greatly improved.

At this moment, the god on top of his head seemed to have deliberately helped the Han army. A gust of wind suddenly blew in the sky, and the Tuliao people instantly turned into a headwind and rushed down the hillside, while the Han army was in the upwind, and it was a tailwind. The crossbow bolt is fired downwind, which has a longer range.

Three hundred steps, the first wave of crossbow bolts came to the head of the Tuliao cavalry, and then two hundred steps, the second wave of crossbow arrows arrived. The range of the horse bow of the Tuliao people is short, and they must rush to within a hundred paces before they can enter the range of the horse bow, so on the way of this charge, the Tuliao cavalry will not be able to fight back at all. By the time the Tuliao cavalry rushed to a hundred paces, they had already received three rounds of blows, and the 20,000 cavalry had been cut off by three or four thousand.

At this moment, Ha Shiqi was really dizzy, thinking that when he was approaching, he would shoot these Han soldiers to death with a wave of "explosive arrows", so as to let out the evil breath in his heart.

However, at this time, the Han army had already pushed the wet mud shield up with a wheelbarrow and blocked the front of the army. When the rush was near, a wave of "explosive arrows" full of confidence from the Tuliao people shot over, all of which were blocked by wet mud shields, and they did not cause much casualties to the Han army.

The Han generals also made a lot of preparations in advance for this battle, and after blocking the first wave of "explosive arrows" that caused the most damage to the Tuliao people, the Han generals quickly ordered the soldiers to return fire. The archers of the Han army began to shoot arrows at the Tuliao people, and they returned the colors. At the same time, the light cavalry of the Han army also quickly attacked from the flank and strangled with the Tuliao cavalry.

In this battle, although the Han army suffered nearly 20,000 casualties, it also left the corpses of more than 8,000 elite cavalry of Tuliao.

This battle completely broke the myth of the invincibility of the Tuliao cavalry, and also indirectly shattered the dream of the Tuliao people to swallow the Zhou world.

In this peaceful and circumferential land, generations of people can come out in large numbers, how can Yi people be so arrogant!

After this battle, when the Tuliao cavalry encountered the Han army again, they were no longer arrogant and began to deal with it carefully. However, after all, the Tuliao people were powerful, and the Han army only had one Han general, so in Xuhuai Province, the Han army was still attacked by the Tuliao people and broke many cities, and finally forced to defend the five big cities in Hanzhong.

At this time, the battle between the two sides was at this point, and in a hurry, it was difficult for the army of Tuliao East Road to completely eat the Han army, and the Han army was even more powerless to fight back. As a result, the two sides entered a long phase of stalemate. The situation in the entire Xuhuai Province has become that the soldiers and horses on the Tuliao East Road are unable to completely annex the Han army, and the Han army is also unable to counterattack the Tuliao people, so they can only defend the city.

Let's talk about the strongest mid-lane army of the Tuliao people, this army was personally led by Emperor Shengwuyuan of the Tuliao, and Fan Guoshi was also in the army. After the Chinese army of the Tuliao people invaded Beiji Province, they were like a bamboo, and they did not encounter any decent resistance at all, and the tyrants who were originally entrenched in this province, such as Liu Hei, Dou Jian, and Yuan Zhu, were either wiped out by the Tuliao people, or simply took refuge in the Tuliao people. Cao Jiuxi simply gave up the southern part of Northern Hebei that he had just gotten, and chose to shrink his forces and concentrate all his troops in Xudu Province to defend it.

After the middle route army of the Tuliao people took the Northern Hebei, they did not stop and directly invaded Xudu Province. Xudu Province is Cao Jiuxi's hometown, he retreated here, and there is no way to retreat, so he can only grit his teeth and be tough with the Tuliao people. This Cao Jiuxi is also a powerful figure who uses soldiers like a god, and under his command, there is also an elite cavalry, called the tiger and leopard cavalry, known as the world's first elite cavalry.

In order to fight Cao Jiuxi, the Chinese army of the Tuliao people specially sent the vanguard elite to the Wuhuan tribe of the Tuliao people, and the cavalry of 30,000 tribes took the lead and took the lead in invading Xudu Province. At the same time as sending the vanguard Wuhuan tribe to invade Xudu Province, the Tuliao Emperor also specially sent envoys to say that Cao Jiuxi would surrender.

Cao Jiuxi also attached great importance to the envoy of the Tuliao people, and specially arranged a bureau to deal with it.

It turns out that this Cao Jiuxi is not very tall and mighty, but a little short and stubby, so I won't say where it is. Cao Jiuxi was afraid that his appearance would be difficult to deter the envoys of Tuliao, so he deliberately let a tall, dignified, and elegant minister under his command pretend to be him, while Cao Jiuxi was a guard with a knife next to him. Then, he met with the envoy of the Tuliao.

After meeting, the two sides naturally did not negotiate, this Cao Jiuxi was very tough, and refused to surrender to the Tuliao people, and the Tuliao envoy could not complete the task, so he surrendered and retreated. Cao Jiuxi specially ordered his subordinates to chase after him and ask the Tuliao envoy, "How does my lord look?" ”

The Tuliao envoy said straightforwardly: "The general Yawang is very, but the person who catches the knife at the head of the bed is also a hero." After Cao Jiuxi heard that his subordinates had returned, his face changed greatly, and he immediately sent his henchmen and soldiers to hunt down and kill this Tuliao envoy.

This Tuliao envoy was killed by Cao Jiuxi, and the Tuliao Emperor was immediately furious. In fact, everyone will be angry about this matter, and I will persuade you to surrender with good intentions, salute first and then soldier, but as a result, not only did you not be polite to me, but also killed my envoys, which is unbearable! Hit, you have to hit hard! Emperor Tuliao immediately ordered the Wuhuan chieftain to immediately attack Xudu Province, be sure to capture Yucheng, and capture the hateful Cao Jiuxi alive.

Cao Jiuxi had already contracted his defense with all his strength at this moment, and at the same time, he had reached the point where he had no way to retreat. Since there is no way to retreat, you can only fight with the Tuliao people. Cao Jiuxi personally led his soldiers and horses to engage in a fierce battle with the army of Wuhuan in the vanguard of Tuliao. In Baimadu, the soldiers and horses of the two sides met unexpectedly, and a big battle began.

This Cao Jiuxi is also really capable, commanding the soldiers and horses to be tough and rigid Wuhuan 30,000 tribesmen's cavalry, and he does not change color. Cao Jiuxi commanded Xiahou Duyan, a few fierce generals such as the Dian Chahu, and personally led the elite tiger and leopard cavalry to fight with Wuhuan to boost morale.

Among Cao Jiuxi's fierce generals, especially the Diancha Tiger, he is a rare fierce general in the world, and Cao Jiuxi once called it "evil" in ancient times. This pawn chases the tiger to make a double iron whip, one in one hand, each weighing forty-five pounds, this person is not accustomed to riding a horse, with only two legs, running faster than a war horse, every battle must be the first soldier, kill the first one into the enemy army.

In this battle, the fight was extremely tragic, and in the end, in order to rescue the besieged general Cao Jiuxi, Dian Zhuhu fought desperately, ten in and ten out, and carried out Cao Jiuxi in the pile of dead people, but he was wounded more than 100 times. In the end, Cao Jiuxi, who had fallen from his horse, fought his way out of the siege and broke out of the encirclement.

After Cao Jiuxi was safe, he was about to thank Dian Zhuhu for saving his life, but suddenly found that Dian Zhuhu had already died of exhaustion at this time, and his whole body was stiff, but he still maintained an angry gaze, holding an iron whip to protect Cao Jiuxi, and was ready to fight for his life with the Wuhuan cavalry at any time.

Cao Jiuxi looked at the Dian Zhuhu who died fighting to save himself, trembling and crying, crying: "I raise your wife, don't worry about it." "Don't think crookedly, although this Cao Jiuxi likes married women, he really has to take care of his wife and children at this time.

Another fierce general under Cao Jiuxi, Xiahou Duyan, took advantage of the fact that the Wuhuan cavalry was busy besieging the main general Cao Jiuxi, and led the army straight to the Wuhuan army.

As soon as this Wuhuan chief died, the Wuhuan cavalry under his command immediately fell into a situation where there was no one to command. Cao Jiuxi seized the opportunity, gathered the remaining tiger and leopard cavalry under his command, and launched a decisive charge against the Wuhuan cavalry, and finally completely defeated the Wuhuan cavalry, the vanguard of the Tuliao people. In this battle, Cao Jiuxi suffered countless injuries and killed countless enemies. is a hero for a while, Cao Jiuxi deserves it!

After this battle, although Cao Jiuxi temporarily repelled the vanguard of the Tuliao people, he also suffered heavy losses. The two generals under his command died in the battle, and Xiahou Duyan lost his eyes and was forced to recuperate. The elite tiger and leopard ride also lost more than half. As a last resort, Cao Jiuxi could only mobilize defenders from all over the country, abandon those small county towns, and stubbornly defend the three big cities centered on Yucheng. At this point, Cao Jiuxi completely fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness.

After receiving the news of Wuhuan's fiasco, the Tuliao Emperor was furious, and later under the repeated persuasion of Fan Dashi, he turned his anger into joy. Emperor Tuliao took the opportunity to gather the defeated and retreating Wuhuan tribe cavalry, scattered them, and absorbed them into his own army. In this battle, the Tuliao people not only suffered no losses, but because they absorbed more than 10,000 defeated Wuhuan cavalry, their strength increased again.

After swallowing the remnants of Wuhuan, Fan advised the Tuliao Emperor not to stay in the barren Northern Hebei Province any longer, but to lead the army and immediately march into the rich Xudu Province. Northern Hebei Province has been plundered twice by the Tuliao people in recent years, and it has long been dilapidated, and in addition to the continuous war, the place is poor and weak, and it is very difficult to support the hundreds of thousands of troops on the middle road of Tuliao, so it is also imperative to capture Xudu Province.

The Tuliao Emperor listened to the advice of Fan Guoshi, led the Tuliao army, and marched into Xudu.

In front of Cao Jiuxi, it is already a dead end. But I don't know how Cao Jiuxi should act this time?
