Chapter 255: The Crisis in Hanzhong
Liu Qi saw that Liu Feng recognized himself, nodded with a smile, and said to him: "I have long heard that Xuande Gong has accepted a righteous son, who is fierce and powerful, and is a rare fierce general, I just want to see you, but I didn't expect to see it today, but today's sight is really worthy of the name, I like it quite a lot in my heart, why don't you get off the horse and surrender, take refuge in me, today may be able to avoid death, and you can become a generation of famous generals in the future, so that you can leave a name in history." ”
But Liu Feng sneered: "Liu Qi, I heard it right, right? You even said that I should take refuge in you? Do you know who I am? I am the son of the Duke of Qin, the young master of the Qin Kingdom, my father is the Duke of Qin, sitting on the anointed land of Guanzhong, with 100,000 armor, how can it be possible to surrender to you? Don't talk nonsense, today there is death. ”
Liu Qi sighed, shook his head and said: "Although you are proud now, you are just a righteous son of a moth, you can fight for Liu Bei, if you expect to inherit his business in the future, I am afraid it is like a fool's dream, Liu Bei is now the Duke of Qin, there will naturally be a wife and a beautiful concubine around him, and it is inevitable to give birth to an heir in the future. I think you can also understand, why make wedding garments for others? In my opinion, it is better to abandon the weapon and surrender to me, and maybe you can save your life, otherwise, even if you can escape the snare today, he will definitely die at the hands of Liu Bei one day. Besides, although Guanzhong is a place of ointment, it has been destroyed by war for a long time, and now Liu Bei does not know how to cherish the people's power, but instead fights with more than 100,000 troops, how long do you think he can support it? ”
Liu Feng was unmoved, and laughed: "You should have said this to others." Although Gong Qin is not my own child, he treats me more kindly than my own child, so you have to coax a three-year-old child like this. How could I, Liu Feng, fall for your divisive plan? ”
Liu Qi couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, he said this and was kind, but Liu Feng didn't appreciate it at all, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand it, after all, Liu Bei has no children now, and he naturally treats Liu Feng as if he were his own, and now Liu Feng is proud. How do you listen to your own advice?
Thinking of this, Liu Qi couldn't help but sigh and said slowly: "Since you don't listen to persuasion, then there is no way to do it." ”
Then he shouted in a deep voice: "Attack." ”
"Don't panic, everybody. Quickly form a defense. "Although Liu Feng is not Liu Bei's biological son, he is now considered a noble status, and the soldiers under his command are naturally also Guanlong's elite soldiers, when facing the siege of the three-way army. It was only after a short period of panic that he had regained his composure, and under the appeasement of the main general Liu Feng, his morale gradually lifted up again.
However, things often do not develop in the direction that people envision, and as soon as the ranks of Liu Feng's army were formed, they suddenly heard the sound of bangs, and then saw the surrounding enemy troops starting to fire crossbow arrows at them.
Thousands of crossbow arrows rained down like flying locusts, and the speed and power were beyond imagination.
After a round of crossbow arrows, Liu Feng's army not only lost more than 4,000 soldiers, but also dissipated the little morale that had just been accumulated.
"The other party's crossbow bolts are really terrible. This is simply not something that people can resist. The soldiers under Liu Feng's command turned pale one by one, desperately retreating backwards, and the formation that had just been formed by the guide zhì collapsed again.
That's when it happened. Only a drum beat was heard, and then the enemy troops on three sides launched a fierce attack.
"The dreaded crossbow bolts are finally over, and now it's time for melee combat to begin, soldiers, don't be afraid, melee combat is our forte. This time, Liu Qi's army must be made to pay the price. ”
Liu Feng can be said to be full of confidence in the elite infantry under his command, because this is an elite guard composed of his father Liu Bei's Bai'er soldiers as the backbone. In the entire Qin State, only the lord Liu Bei and the monk Ling Zhuge Liang had such treatment.
They are also full of confidence in melee combat, as well as those soldiers under Liu Feng's command, they saw that the other party was stupid to no longer fire crossbow arrows, but directly relied on melee to press up, and their hearts were all sneering, although the current formation is a little scattered, but they also have absolute confidence that they can regroup in a short period of time, and then launch a one-sided slaughter of the enemy.
But soon they couldn't laugh, because they didn't think about how powerful the other side was, not to mention the formation and mutual cooperation of the opposing sergeant, and not to mention the individual soldiers, just the sword in the hand of the other sergeant made them lose their fear.
They didn't know how such a weapon was forged, they only knew that the weapons in the hands of their own soldiers could not be stopped at all, whether it was a sword or a spear, as long as it came into contact with the opponent's sword, all of them broke like defeat.
A soldier without a weapon is like a tiger without claws, no matter how powerful and majestic, he can only be slaughtered by others.
Therefore, the sergeants under Liu Feng's command now have no chance of victory, and can only wait in horror for the enemy to be slaughtered.
Originally, they thought that it was their own side that slaughtered the other party, but they didn't expect the situation to turn around, but the other party slaughtered their own side backwards, such a gap is really difficult for them to accept.
I only heard the sound of slapping knives and guns into the flesh in an endless stream, which was mixed with a scream, every scream came, the hearts of the soldiers under Liu Feng's command were convulsions, they were like lambs to be slaughtered, knowing that they would inevitably be stabbed, but they had given up struggling and resisting, because they knew that even if they resisted, it was futile.
Fortunately, at this time, I could only hear a loud rumbling sound coming from behind, and only a high-pitched voice could be heard: "Brothers, the city gate has been breached, everyone quickly return and flee for your life." ”
When these soldiers who were already determined to die heard this voice, they immediately seemed to grasp the straw that saved their lives, and they stimulated all their will to survive, and desperately approached the city gate, and no one wanted to fall half a step.
But in this way, a team that was originally disciplined is now like a hornet's nest, blocking the city gate one after another, making it a luxury to go out of the city.
Liu Qi was not in a hurry to order a pursuit, but only ordered the soldiers to release arrows in the distance.
Hearing the dense sound of breaking the air again, the soldiers under Liu Feng couldn't stand this pressure anymore, and finally fell into madness. In order to be able to get out of the city gates and escape from this hellish place, some soldiers couldn't help but take out their weapons and launched a frenzied slaughter of those robes who blocked them from leaving the city.
"Don't mess around." Liu Feng's words were mixed with anger, and he rushed forward to kill several cannibalistic soldiers, but he didn't expect that it wouldn't even have a moment's effect, and then a larger-scale civil strife broke out.
In order to get out of the city gate and seize a way to live, Liu Feng's soldiers desperately carried out the killing, treating their former sibling-like robes, and they were more ruthless than the enemy, wishing that all the robes in front of them would die.
Looking at these soldiers who couldn't even restrain themselves, Liu Feng couldn't help but sigh, today's matter, I'm afraid he will have nothing to do, so he had no choice but to fight out of the city gate under the protection of the most elite guards, and then fled with the half of the remaining soldiers outside the city gate.
Just after Liu Feng fled, Meng Shu stepped forward and asked Liu Qi: "Lord, why did you let Liu Feng go, wouldn't it be better to kill him?" ”
But seeing Liu Qi's eyes looking at the direction of Liu Feng's escape, he said with an unfathomable face: "Although Liu Feng is also a brave general, he is just a brave man, compared to my brother Liu Pan, it is insignificant to let him escape, not to mention, it is much better to keep Liu Feng alive than to kill him, hehe, after Liu Bei gives birth to a parent in the future, there will be civil strife within the Qin State, and then Liu Feng will be killed by Liu Bei himself, and the effect will definitely be much stronger than killing him alone." ”
"But Liu Bei is nearly half a hundred years old, can he really give birth to a parent? If you can't give birth, won't the lord be equal to returning to the mountain? Meng Shu scratched his head and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Hehe, it will definitely be, there will be two years at most to get the news, don't worry, it won't take too long, as long as Liu Bei's son comes to the world." Liu Feng will believe what I say today. ”
Liu Qi patted Meng Shu on the shoulder, and then came to Shangyong City, announcing the news that 3,000 wealthy families would be moved to Jiaozhou and Jingzhou counties, and tens of thousands of people would be moved from Jingyang at the same time, and ordered the wealthy families who moved to various places to leave immediately within three days, and if they disobeyed, they would all be killed.
All of a sudden, the wealthy families within Shangyong complained, although the two major families represented by the Shen family and the Deng family were dead and not stiff, they openly insisted on refusing to migrate, and tried to organize a resistance, Liu Qi, who got accurate information, immediately ordered his Praetorian guards to rush to the two families, and carried out an iron-blooded cleansing of the two families, except for women and children, almost all the young and middle-aged people were slaughtered.
Liu Qi's tough methods suddenly made the wealthy clan of Shangyong frightened, and they no longer dared to resist in the slightest, and immediately led the clansmen to the designated place, so far, the foundation of the Shangyong Shen clan that had been entrenched in Shangyong City for decades was completely eradicated.
Liu Qi also ordered the newly appointed Shangyong Tai to keep money to calm the people's hearts, reduce taxes, develop production, and at the same time pay attention to strengthening the defense of Shangyong, and establish a strict and complete communication system with nearby Jinxian County, Xicheng and other places to ensure the safety of the entire northern front.
After dealing with this matter, Liu Qi saw that the situation in Shangyong had completely stabilized, and wrote a letter to Liao Li, asking him to take charge of the affairs of Shangyong's immigration and Juntian, but he led the army to Hanzhong in a hurry.
Because he has received the news, after a few days of delay, Liu Bei's army has occupied the capital again, is marching towards Hanzhong along the two directions of Dingjun Mountain and Kei Valley, because Liu Bei's camp has Zhuge Liang, Zhong Xuan and other wise men planning, although the progress is slow, but it is steady and steady, step by step, although Huang Zhong desperately sticks to it, refuses to fight, but it is not realistic to break the enemy in a short period of time.
And when the armies of the two sides were facing each other, Liu Bei used Zhuge Liang's strategy and used a lot of money to buy off Shenluoqiang and Baimaqiang, so that they each sent thousands of cavalry, together with the 10,000 cavalry of Fu Jian, the king of Wudu, to launch an attack on the Guanghan vassal state. If the Guanghan vassal state is occupied, they will further attack Shangyong, thus cutting off the connection between Shangyong and Hanzhong, and making Hanzhong a completely isolated city!
