Chapter 57: The Scarlet West Sea (Part II)
When it was dark, Qin Yiren led the Qin army to a place less than fifty miles away from the Qiang camp and stopped, asking the Qin army to rest. At the same time, scout alert is released to prevent the news from being revealed.
The soldiers knew that the war was about to break out, and they must recuperate in order to kill happily and ruthlessly, obey the order, and begin to rest.
Qin Yiren, Huang Shigong, Wei Yu, Wang Qian, Meng Wu and other generals gathered together to discuss military aircraft.
"After more than 20 days of marching, we finally arrived at the West Sea." Qin Yiren glanced at the generals, gave a lecture, and said: "Along the way, we marched in the high mountains and dense forests, dangerous mountains and bad waters, went through hardships, endured hardships, and finally walked out and came to the West Sea. Tonight, we will attack Qiang and write our glory again! ”
Qiang is a big disaster on the northwest plateau, although the strength is not as good as the Qin State, but because there are high mountains and dense forests, dangerous mountains and bad waters to rely on, look at the Lengzi to exploit loopholes, from time to time to disturb the Qin State, and the Qin State has no choice but to Qiang, which makes the Qin people hate Qiang. Qin Yiren's words aroused the hatred of the generals, and their eyes flashed with hatred, eager to destroy Qiang.
"I know you hate Qiang, and I hate Qiang. However, what I want to remind you is that in this battle, you must not only kill hard, but also kill Qiang to be afraid in the eyes of the bones, and dare not have two hearts. But you can't just kill, after killing almost and scaring Qiang's guts, you can't kill anymore, and you have to accept Qiang's surrender. Qin Yiren's voice was slightly higher.
"Childe, why is that? Qiang is hateful, we should kill all Qiang, and not let a Qiang stay. "Qin Yiren has a lot of prestige in the army, and his orders have always been strictly enforced, this time. But the generals were unwilling. Questioned in unison. There is unhappiness written on their faces.
Among the surrounding alien races, if you ask which race the Qin people hate the most? It's not the Huns, it's not the alien races of Lin Hu, Lou Fu, Loulan, Xiu Tu, and Hun Evil, but Qiang!
Not for anything else, just because Qiang was too annoying and didn't fight the Qin army head-on, so that the Qin army couldn't be powerful, and Qiang kept harassing the Qin state. If the Qin people don't hate Qiang the most, they can't do it.
According to the ideas of the generals, this time they finally came to the West Sea, and they wanted to fight against Qiang, of course, they had to destroy Qiang, and they could only vent their anger when they were killed cleanly. Qin Yiren didn't let them kill them cleanly, and accepted surrender when they were almost killed, they were very unwilling.
They can accept the surrender of the Xiongnu, but they don't want to accept the surrender of Qiang, who calls Qiang so annoying?
"You hate Qiang, you want to kill Qiang to the fullest. I can understand you as a way to vent your anger. But. This is a quick time, but it will sow endless troubles. Qin Yiren waved his right hand to stop the generals from asking, and then said, "Have you ever thought about it? This is a place of high mountains and dense forests, dangerous mountains and bad waters, of course, we can kill Qiang, but after Qiang, there will be other alien races to occupy this land, and continue to cause trouble to Great Qin here. At that point, our efforts today will be in vain. ”
There is not only one Qiang but also other races in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. If the Qin army really kills the Qiang and does not leave a single one, the other alien races will take advantage of the gap to occupy this land and develop and grow, and then for the disaster of the Qin State, today's efforts will be in vain, and today's battle will be in vain.
Huang Shigong, Wei Yi, Wang Qian, Meng Wu, Li Si and Han Fei nodded heavily, approving.
The generals pursed their lips and did not speak, the meaning was already very clear, and they were reluctant.
Qin Yiren ignored them, and continued: "For the sake of the long run, we can't kill all the Qiang, and after scaring their guts, we will accept their surrender, leave a part of them, and ask them to submit to Great Qin." Of course, the Qiang people are untrustworthy and untrustworthy, in order to better control the Qiang and control this land, I decided to build a city near the West Sea, and build a road from Longxi to here, so that I can effectively control the Qiang and control this land. ”
The city has always been the symbol of the Central Plains, it can be used as a strategic base, it can be used as a support, it can accumulate ordnance, grain and grass, and once this land changes, the Qin army can be immediately dispatched to suppress it.
Of course, in order for the city to play a huge role, it must have an open road, transport military supplies, and transport troops, otherwise everything will be in vain.
You know, the roads on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are extremely inconvenient, and this road is even more important.
"To build ponds and roads, you need coolies, and these Qiang are very suitable." Qin Yiren finally showed his fox tail.
To build a city and build a road on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it is impossible to send people from the Qin mainland. First, because of the world of the Warring States War, manpower was already tight, and the Qin State couldn't send it even if it wanted to. The second reason is that it is too expensive to send people from the interior of Qin to the Xihai area, and it is not cost-effective, so it is better to let Qiang do coolies.
"I see, Childe is not at ease, that's it!" As soon as the generals understood, they immediately agreed.
Accepting the surrender of Qiang, first let Qiang do coolies, build cities, build roads, and then make Qiang submit, which was extremely beneficial for Qin to control the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is conceivable that if Qin Yiren's plan was realized, Qiang would not dare to rebel again, and Qin's control over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau would be stronger and more stable.
Qin Yiren divided the Qin army into four, and he, Huang Shigong, Wei Yi, and Wang Jian each led a team, preparing to attack simultaneously from the east, west, south, and north directions.
After the arrangements were made, Huang Shigong, Wei Yi, and Wang Jian led the Qin army to their respective directions.
Qin Yiren asked Qin Jun to rest, and he also rested.
In the middle of the night, Qin Yiren woke up, had eaten the war meal, and then sorted out his clothes. After everything was in order, Qin Yiren flew on his horse and led the Qin army straight to the Qiang camp to kill.
Fifty miles away, for the Qin army on horseback, was nothing at all, but it arrived in half an hour.
Before coming to the Qiang camp, Qin Yiren waved his hand, the Qin army stopped, Qin Yiren looked at it by the light of the stars and the moon, and saw that there were tents everywhere, one after another, black and pressing, I don't know how many.
The whole camp was lifeless, silent, not even patrolling, and Qiang was too careless.
However, this is a great thing for Qin Yiren and them, which shows that Qiang does not know that the Qin army is coming, and does not know that the catastrophe is coming, and he will definitely be caught off guard by the Qin army.
"Remember, don't be busy killing when you enter the camp, but create chaos, and the more chaos the better." Qin Yiren commanded in a deep voice.
"No!" How to fight this battle, Qin Yiren has already repeatedly explained, and the generals naturally understand that there are more than 200,000 Qiang gathered here, and the Qin army only has 30,000 people. Creating chaos first and using the chaos to kill Qiang is more terrifying and effective than the Qin army's own killing.
"Let's go!" Qin Yiren pulled out the Qin sword violently, held it tightly in his hand, patted the horse's back, and galloped towards the Qiang camp.
Zhu Hai, Weng Zhong, Meng Zhao, Ma Gai, Fan Tong, Lu Jujian, and Gai Nie hurriedly followed, guarding Qin Yiren.
Entering the camp and encountering a tent, Qin Yiren did not hesitate, waved the sword in his hand, cut a hole in the tent, and got into it. The tabernacle was full of wine, and the short table was full of leftover beef and mutton and undrunk mare's milk. There were five Qiang in total, all drunk as mud, staggering on top of each other, sleeping soundly, snoring like thunder.
"The boring race kills the boring with boring things!" Seeing it in his eyes, Qin Yiren couldn't help but shake his head and demean it in his heart.
For Qiang, who has too much time to pass, if they don't drink wine and eat meat, they really don't know how to pass this lot of boring time.
With a wave of the sword in Qin Yiren's hand, the head of a Qiang person moved.
At the same time as Qin Yiren made a move, Zhu Hai and the others were not idle, they did it together, and in just a few clicks, the five Qiang in the tent were killed.
Without Qin Yiren's orders, Weng Zhong dismantled the tent, and then killed the Qiang in several nearby tents, demolished the tent, piled several tents together, and set a fire.
The tabernacle was on fire, the flames were blazing, the flames were in the air, and the darkness was finally driven back.
"Good horse, good horse!" At this moment, I only heard bursts of admiration from the Qin soldiers, mixed with bursts of neighing horses.
It turned out that the Qin soldiers found the tent of the Qiangguan horse, and found that there were many high-quality horses, all of which had bright eyes, and they could not pull out after being trapped in the horses.
"What are you still doing? Hurry up and get the horse out. Qin Yiren rode over and shouted in a deep voice.
"Childe, such a good horse, we can't do it." If he was facing Qiang, the Qin soldiers would not hesitate to kill the killer, but in the face of such a good horse, the Qin soldiers really couldn't do it.
In the Warring States Period, because of the frequent wars, war horses were extremely scarce, and the Qin soldiers were particularly protective of horses, where were they willing to deal with horses.
"As long as you defeat Qiang, there are more horses, look at your little luck!" Qin Yiren's face sank, and his cheers were like thunder.
"No!" Hearing this, Qin Yiren was a little displeased, and the soldiers didn't dare not execute, so they stabbed the Qin sword in their hands on the horse's buttocks.
"Ritsu!" The steed let out a loud scream, spread its hooves and galloped, rampage through the Qiang camp. Wherever the horses went, there was a crowd of people shouting and neighing, and the tabernacle was swept to the ground.
"There are cows here, and there are quite a few cows."
"Drive the cattle out and let them trample them." For the cow, the soldiers of the Qin army had no pity and love, and the Qin sword in their hands stabbed it fiercely.
"Moo!" An earth-shattering roar of cattle sounded, and I saw many fat and strong cows galloping up, jumping around with sharp horns.
Everywhere the oxen went, there was chaos, either the Qiang was trampled to death and trampled and wounded, or the tabernacle was overturned.
"Here's pasture, burn!" As soon as he found the forage collected by Qiang, the Qin soldiers did not hesitate at all, and burned to the ground.
The Qin army let go of their hands and feet to create chaos and wreak havoc, and it didn't take long to see that there were fires everywhere here, and there were many tents that were lit; Everywhere there was the neighing of horses, and the number of horses being driven away was unknown; There was a roar of cattle everywhere, and there were many cows scurrying around......
