The leaders of Xianbei took the lead and led the crowd to gallop on Chengnan Avenue, and the houses and shops on both sides were closed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info They didn't go in to loot, because they were already in their pockets, and they could come and get them at any time, and what they wanted most now was to give Song Dian a dismount, and if he was still disobedient, he would be hung up and beaten up.

The leaders were in a reverie all the way, and suddenly, there was a "click" of broken wood, and the horses' hooves stepped on the covering soil formed by dead branches, and in an instant they fell into the trap with the horses.

It was too late for the Xianbei knights who followed closely behind to rein their horses, and they also fell into the pit one after another, filling a trap in an instant.

The Xianbei knight, who was lucky enough to restrain his horse, shouted: "This is a trap! It's a trap ......"

But where could the Xianbei people near the city gate and outside the city hear the wailing and warning sounds in the city, and they only had the sound of drums and welcome in their ears, and they squeezed excitedly into the city one by one, fearing that they would be too late to enter and that the good things in the city would be robbed by other tribes.

At this moment, a strange scene was staged on Chengnan Avenue, and the Xianbei knights who were originally happily rushing in front instantly turned into panicked frightened bow birds, and they all turned their horses' heads and rushed out of the city; The Xianbei knights behind were desperately squeezing into the city, although after entering the city for half a mile, they heard the warning from the front, but it was too late to retreat, and more people and horses squeezed up behind, forcing them to go to the city.

In this way, the people who wanted to escape from the city were pushed into the pits one by one by the people who wanted to enter the city.

When the four traps were filled, the Xianbei knights reached the gates of the city with the sound of drums and welcomes.

"Retreat!"

"It's a trap!"

"Begging for betrayal!"

"The chiefs are dead!"

The Xianbei people turned around and prepared to evacuate, but at this time, the eight hundred Xianbei knights who stayed a mile away to guard the supplies rushed over, and said loudly: "Come into the city, the Han army is coming!" The Han army is coming! ”

The Xianbei who had just turned the horse's head were completely stunned, how could everything change in the blink of an eye.

"Turn around and rush to the city!"

"No, there's a trap in the city!"

"Quick, if you don't enter the city, you'll die!"

"You're going to die when you enter the city!"

The Xianbei people in the city were in chaos, and the welcome on the city tower stopped, followed by "Kill!" Kill! Kill! The sound of "......" resounded throughout Gohara County, and the drumming became intense.

As the sound of killing began, spears and wooden poles were stabbed out from the houses, shops, and alleys on both sides of the street, stabbing at the Xianbei people crowded on the street.

On the rooftops, the archers who had been hidden for a long time drew their bows and shot at the Xianbei knights in the streets.

The Xianbei rushed forward and fell into the trap pit, hid under the eaves and were pierced, walked in the streets and were shot, retreated but were squeezed back, there was really no way to go to the sky, there was no way to enter the ground, only the wail of despair.

For a time, in the sky south of the city, the sounds of killing and wailing were intertwined, forming a song of revenge.

Outside the city, the Yue cavalry and the county cavalry had already surrounded the city gate, and Xianbei could only retreat to the city.

Although the trap in the city had already been filled, He Bi led three hundred foot soldiers with guns to block the avenue, becoming an insurmountable defense line for the Xianbei.

Gradually, the wailing sank, and only the two dozen or so Xianbei begging for mercy were left hiding under the city gate.

I looked at the pile of corpses on the road below the city, how high and more than a mile long, although I felt unkindness in my heart, but those fragmentary memories in my mind told me that I had to do this.

"Lord, we won!" Dong Xi replied on the side.

"Well, you've worked hard for everyone, tell everyone to rest!" I did get a little tired, too.

"Yes, my lord!"

I called Wei Lan on the side and ordered, "Go and call the 300 foot soldiers stationed in the palace to come and clean up the battlefield!" ”

"Yes, General!"

The next day, in the morning.

The lobby of the government office.

Huo Wu reported the post-war statistics: "In the first battle last night, Xianbei killed a total of 3,223 people, captured 143 people alive, harvested 3,500 knives and guns, and could use 462 war horses, more than 2,000 complete bows, more than 43,000 arrows, more than 20,000 stones of grain, and animal skins and sundries were not counted. ”

"What about our casualties?" I asked with concern.

"Ninety-one of our troops were killed and more than 300 wounded." Huo Wu replied.

After I closed my eyes and sighed, I said sadly: "Dou Rong, the sacrificial brother should be buried in horse leather." ”

"Yes!"

"Dongfang Yang, don't slack off the three hundred injured brothers, take care of them."

"Yes!"

"Ma Fang, open the treasury to reward the three armies according to the law, and no deduction is allowed, if there is any deduction, it will be decided!"

"Xia Guan understands!"

"Huo Wu, escort those one hundred and forty-three Xianbei miscellaneous to the school grounds, and invite the people all the way to go with you."

"Yes!"

After dealing with the post-war matters, I came to the school with the praise of the officials.

Under the platform of the school field, one hundred and forty-three Xianbei prisoners kneeled in two rows facing the people with their hands tied behind their backs.

I walked up to the platform, pointed to the captives in front of me, and said in a loud voice to the people gathered under the stage: "I have called you here today to let you judge them, what do you say this group of brutes robs and kills countless of our compatriots every year?"

The people in the audience were excited, shouting in unison: "Kill them!" Avenge my family! ”

"Death is too cheap for them, they can't forgive the sins they have committed, we have been too kind, too tolerant, so that for thousands of years, we have become the lamb in their mouths, starting today, we have to make them feel afraid, we are the masters of this land, and we are no longer cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, everyone says it's okay!" I said impassionedly.

"Good!" The people in the audience also spoke in unison.

I continued, "I'm going to tie them up all over the city and leave them at your disposal, okay?" ”

"Good! Good! Good ......"

"Thank you, General, for giving us a chance to take revenge!"

"I'm going to strip them and avenge my father!"

The people in the audience gritted their teeth angrily, eager to go to the stage and tear these beasts off immediately.

"Wei Ran, tell these brutes what will happen to them next."

"Yes!"

When Wei Ran repeated my words to the Xianbei captives, they all showed horror on their faces, they all understood how they had dealt with the Han people in their daily lives, and now that they had fallen into the hands of the Han civilians, they were afraid that they would be tortured to death.

A young captive shouted at me in stiff Chinese: "You Han people have a saying, 'Shi can be killed, but not humiliated', either kill me quickly, or let me go, I can exchange a lot of goods with you, I am the favorite son of the begging vulture!" ”

After hearing this, I couldn't help laughing angrily, walked up to him, and asked, "Hahaha, 'Shi can be killed but not humiliated'?" Are you beasts worthy? Hmph, you want to steal your belongings from us in exchange for your life, ridiculous! ”

"Come on, tie him to the stake in the middle of the school yard first!" I commanded.

"Yes!" Two soldiers answered the order, set up the young Xianbei, and walked to the stake.

"You Han people don't pay attention to the rules, and I won't let you go if I'm a ghost!" The young man struggled.

"Haha, rules?" I laughed and retorted, "Did you ever talk about the rules when you plundered?" Did you talk about the rules when you slaughtered? Now tell me the rules, why? You should feel the resentment that has been plagued by you for thousands of years! ”

"You ......" Xianbei, the young man who was tied to the stake, wanted to say something, but he was instantly overwhelmed by the angry people, and the terrible screams instantly resounded throughout the city, lasting for a long time.

By the time the people spat out the flesh in their mouths, shook off the blood in their hands, and scattered from the central stake, the young man had already had only one skeleton left.

Only then did the Xianbei captives understand how much the Han people in front of them hated them, they regretted it, they were afraid, they begged for mercy, and they thought that if everything could be done again, they would never dare to offend the Han border again.

"It's too late for you to beg for mercy!" I ordered the soldiers to take the Xianbei captives to all parts of the county.

The people cheered happily: "Qian Kun! Qian Kun! Qian Kun ......"

In the following days, I distributed all the Xianbei swords and guns I had collected to the people outside the city, and taught them to dig horse pits around the village and prepare long poles so that the people living outside the city could protect themselves.

A month later, I returned from my tour outside the city, and as soon as I returned to the gate of the palace, a servant hurriedly came and said, "General, the new Taishou has arrived, he is in the lobby, and he has brought the emperor's decree to you." ”

"Oh, go in and have a look."

In the lobby, a young man in armed clothes was standing, and when he saw me entering, he hurriedly saluted me and said: "General Qian is powerful and humble, and he has been admiring him for a long time, and today I finally saw it, and I am fortunate to have three lives!" ”

I immediately returned the salute and asked, "Lord Taishou Miao Zan, I don't know what to call your lord?" ”

"The surname is Huangfu Ming, the meaning of the word is true, please ask General Qian for more advice."
