General Pindi's Mansion, Inner Courtyard.
Before dawn, the inner courtyard of the huge General's Mansion was busy.
The servants and maids were busy back and forth, boiling water, and towels, and they were very busy.
The sky is as blue as a wash, without a trace of clouds, which makes people feel inexplicably comfortable. As the sun just jumped above the horizon, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief as a loud baby cry came from the chamber.
In the delivery room, Gan Qianyu's face was pale, sweating profusely and almost collapsed.
"Congratulations to Madame, Mrs. Hexi, for giving birth to a son for the general."
The mother-in-law who was in charge of the delivery glanced between the baby's legs, and immediately congratulated Gan Qian, and was honored.
"Really?"
Gan Qian cried with joy, and a big stone in her heart finally landed.
There are many husbands and women, but there are no heirs for a long time, and the wives and concubines can't help but be secretly anxious.
finally had a belly fight, if she gave birth to a girl, Gan Qian would not forgive herself.
Finally, God Tianyan let himself give birth to a son, so that his husband would have a successor.
The delivery room was crowded and lively.
After the baby was washed and cleaned, he was quickly picked up by Ren Yan, Wu Zhen and several other women who were waiting on the side.
"Sister, the child is very similar to her husband!"
Ren Yan teased the baby, turned around and smiled at Ren Yan.
"yes, show me!"
Gan Qianyu's face was pale, and she struggled to sit up.
Several midwives hurriedly stepped forward. Helped her up and leaned back on the cushion.
Ren Yan hugged the baby closer and said with a smile: "I heard that the newborn child is ugly." And I can't open my eyes. Look at how bright this child's skin is, and his eyes are so wide when he is born. When he grows up, he will definitely be a beautiful man. ”
Gan Qian was weak and couldn't hold the child, so she had to reach out and touch her son's black and shiny hair stubble.
Wu Zhen leaned next to him and touched the little guy's forehead, with envy in her eyes.
Maho and Moose Ring also surrounded the side, and there was also envy in their eyes.
In this era when mothers are precious to their sons, being able to give birth to a son for a man is the greatest luck for a woman.
The office of the Yamen.
Xun Yu summoned a group of officials and subordinates of the General's Mansion to discuss the matter of mobilizing grain and straw for the army.
Suddenly, the guards rushed in, ignoring the sinking faces of the adults. shouted excitedly: "Mr. Xun Yu, my lords, great joy, great joy, wow, the eldest lady gave birth to a son for the lord." ”
"Oh, is that true?"
Even Xun Yu, who has always been steady, couldn't help but feel refreshed when he heard the news.
The rest of the people were even more overjoyed, who would blame the guards for their recklessness.
This is indeed good news, and great news.
The guards nodded again and again, "It's true." How dare a villain talk nonsense about such a big thing! Listening to the maids in the inner mansion say that it was the news that was released by a few ladies, then it must be true, and there will be no fake. ”
"Okay, great!"
Xun Yu struck the festival and said: "Quickly send the fast horse to Hutu Ze to find the lord's army. Inform the Lord of this news. ”
"Yes!"
The guards said yes and immediately ran out.
Xun Yu said loudly: "Everyone, the eldest lady has given birth to a son. There is a successor to the lord, waiting for the news to spread. The soldiers at the front will inevitably be greatly motivated. We should quickly mobilize money, food, and ordnance to transport to the army, and distribute more high-quality food. Let the soldiers eat their stomachs and don't worry about the armor and equipment, so that they have the strength to fight the enemy. ”
"That's exactly how it should be!"
Everyone told them to make promises, and immediately dispersed and prepared separately.
On the official road of Xuanwei to Wuwei, 20,000 cavalry slaughtered and urged horses to gallop all over the mountains.
A few days ago, the news spread, and the 20,000-strong army completely bombed the battalion.
Hugh Tuze's old camp was raided, and his wife, children, and parents were all slaughtered, which is definitely a hatred that is not shared.
Without Hong Tu's order, 20,000 cavalry gathered at the first time and slaughtered Xiu Tu Ze with great momentum.
At this time, who is still in the mood to rob the Han people, how can they have the time to rest and slaughter the royal court.
Avenging his wife, children, and parents is the top priority.
The word has spread in the army, Hugh Tuze has become a dead soldier, nearly 200,000 old and weak women and children, except for women, more than 100,000 people have all been slaughtered, and the blood has stained the Baiting Sea. All the Tu Gehu cavalry had red eyes, and they couldn't wait to grow a pair of wings, fly to Hutu Ze, and kill all those damned Qiang Hu people to bury their wives and children.
Seeing that Wuwei was in sight, the terrain in front of him gradually became undulating.
On both sides of the avenue were large undulating sand dunes, and the war horses could not rush over, so they could only gradually move closer to the middle, pulling into a long snake formation, and marching forward in turn on the avenue less than ten wide and wide.
The army was in front, and there was a raging flame burning in Hong Tu's eyes.
The scout had already returned, and Luo Zheng's cavalry had not yet left, so they hid in Wuwei City, and the captured cattle and sheep did not know where they were driven, but all the women in the clan were driven to Wuwei City.
Such a great hatred is difficult to wash away even with blood.
Hong Tu's heart was dripping blood, and the killing intent in his heart had been blazing to the limit.
Soon, half of the 20,000 cavalry had already rushed through this sand dune area less than a mile long, and the terrain of the former lord suddenly became open, and the shady green field quickly expanded in the field of vision, and Wuwei City was already clearly visible.
Hong Tu was urging the horse to catch up, and at this moment, a fast horse chased after him from behind.
"King, be done!"
The scout cavalry shouted: "A large group of cavalry suddenly appeared ten miles away in front of the right, and it has already been killed." ”
"What?"
Hong Tu was taken aback and asked sharply, "Whose cavalry?" ”
The scout cavalry hissed and shouted: "It's Luo Zheng's cavalry, the villain has already seen Luo Zheng's military flag." ”
Hong Tu's mind turned sharply, and after thinking about it for a while, he was shocked and said: "It's not good, I fell for Luo Zheng's trick." This army is not in Wuwei at all, and it is very likely that it is ambushed behind that sand dune. Quickly, order the army to line up to meet the enemy. ”
Desolate trumpets. The 20,000 Tu Gehu horsemen who were surging forward quickly gathered their horses and began to line up on the spot.
However, when the army passed through the dune area, it had already formed a long snake formation, and only one cavalry had passed through the dune area, and half of the cavalry had not yet come, and they were eager to retract, and it was still too late in the morning.
By the time the rear army had just rushed through the sand dunes, a group of black-pressed cavalry in the southeast corner had already appeared in view.
In the continuous sound of the trumpet. Tens of thousands of cavalry surging and galloping, the war horses under the crotch ran hard, and tens of thousands of iron hooves slammed on the ground, as if the heavenly drum was beaten, and the whole heaven and earth were rumbling and muffled.
In front of the army, Luo Zheng took the lead, and the dark cloak floated backwards, and the hunting sounded.
Seeing that two miles away, 20,000 Tu Gehu cavalry were in a chaotic formation, and the rear formation, which had just rushed through the sand dune area, had not yet had time to approach the Chinese army. There was a trace of hideous killing intent in his eyes.
Suddenly, Luo Zheng pointed forward with his saber and shouted: "The three armies listen to the order and break through the enemy formation." Those who bravely move forward are all warriors in the army, and the reward is consistent. For every person killed, two sheep will be rewarded, and one acre of pasture will be awarded. Those who are afraid of the battle and retreat from the battle, slash! ”
"Whoa......"
Tens of thousands of cavalrymen immediately shouted excitedly. His eyes were instantly overwhelmed by the firelight.
There is nothing more attractive than pastures and cattle and sheep, for these Qianghu people. Only pasture, cattle and sheep can be left to children and grandchildren as property, so that children and grandchildren can have no worries about food and clothing, and there is no need to worry about future generations going hungry when they die.
No one would suspect that Luo Zheng was writing empty checks, because Luo Zheng had never broken his promise.
Especially for his subordinates, as long as it is a promised benefit, he will definitely match the line.
Therefore, these Qianghu people can move forward bravely in every battle, and their ideas are extremely simple, as long as Luo Zheng, the lord, is strong enough, even if they die on the battlefield, there is no need to worry that there will be other nomadic tribes to rob the pasture and cattle and sheep they leave to their descendants, and if they want Luo Zheng, the lord, to continue to be strong, they will have to shed blood and fight hard.
Luo Zheng took advantage of the bond of interest to firmly kidnap these Qianghu people on his chariot.
In order for future generations not to become slaves of other nomadic tribes, these Qianghu people have no complaints, and they are all willing to provide Luo Zheng for advice, even if they shed blood and fight hard, no one will complain, which is for the benefit of future generations.
"Quick, line up to meet the enemy!"
In front of the Tu Gehu cavalry, Hong Tu roared with red eyes.
However, it was too late, once the 20,000 people pulled out of the formation, how could they be so quick to assemble in formation.
And the land of ten miles, for the cavalry charge, is just a little more than a pillar of incense.
Before the rear army could get closer, the surging tens of thousands of Qiang Hu cavalry had already broken into within a mile, and went straight to the rear army that was approaching the Chinese army, obviously trying to tear apart their own military formation from the rear army.
"Despicable Han Chinese!"
Hong Tu's eyes were red, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, and immediately shouted: "Tu Xiong, my son, Luo Zheng Pifu is going to kill our Huns, and now it's time for you to bleed, take the three thousand cavalry of your headquarters, and immediately go to block Luo Zheng Pifu's army, even if all the three thousand horsemen are killed, you must not take half a step back!" ”
"The child obeys!"
In front of the large army, a majestic man roared, and immediately took the three thousand cavalry of the headquarters to leave the formation, and stabbed obliquely to meet the tens of thousands of Qiang Hu cavalry who were rolling in and rushed to the rear, and had already made preparations for the death on the spot.
"Only then did you think of dividing troops to intercept?"
In front of the army, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Luo Zheng's mouth, and he shouted: "Zhao Yun listens to the order." ”
"The last general!"
Zhao Yun urged the horse to catch up and rode away.
Luo Zheng said sharply: "Lead the headquarters of 3,000 cavalry to break the enemy formation!" ”
"Order!"
Zhao Yun answered the order loudly, and then led the 3,000 cavalry of his headquarters to break away from his own formation and rush forward.
Suddenly, the three thousand Tu Gehu cavalry who had been stopped by the oblique stab had already rushed to the front of the formation, less than a hundred steps away from the three thousand cavalry led by Zhao Yun, and Tu Xiong could already faintly see the hideous faces of the Qiang soldiers in front of the formation.
At this moment, several black rays quickly dilated in the pupils.
"Huh?"
Tu Xiong was taken aback, and he swung his knife without thinking about it.
Bite!
In the sound of gold and iron clashing, an iron arrow was picked up in the air.
At this moment, four terrible screams sounded around him at the same time.
Tu Xiong was taken aback, only to feel that one arm was sore, and the arrow just now was actually made of black iron, and the strength was terrifying, although the iron arrow flew away, but it shook his own qi and blood, and his right arm could barely lift the knife.
Hurriedly turned his head to look, and two pro-soldiers on the left and right sides had been shot down the throat and fell off the horse.
Tu Xiong couldn't help but gasp, he didn't want to have such a marksman in the Han army, these four people are all brave in the clan, they have followed him for many years, not only are they skilled in bows and horses, but they are also capable of slaughtering beasts.
The white-robed general in front of the Qiang soldiers was able to shoot five arrows at the same time when the war horse was charging at the limit speed, and the arrows could hit the target, such archery skills were simply appalling, not to mention that they had never heard of it.
Although Tu Xiong boasted of his bravery and martial arts, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart at this time.
However, before he could continue to be surprised, the five black rays rapidly dilated in his pupils again.
"Prince be careful!"
More than a dozen exclamations rang out in an instant, and some generals roared loudly, and their eyes were about to split.
"Whew!"
Tu Xiong didn't have time to think about it, he roared violently, and swung his knife hard.
Dingdingding......
The three golden and iron strikes rang out almost simultaneously, and the three arrows shot at the chest and abdomen were all knocked away.
However, the tremendous power contained in the shaft of the arrow shook Tu Xiong's right arm holding the knife to death, and he was so tired that he only hesitated slightly, and he was no longer able to knock the iron arrow that shot at the top door and the lower plate.
Feng Zao's iron arrow pierced through the air, straight through Tu Xiong's forehead, Tu Xiong's huge head shattered like a watermelon, red and white things were excited, the iron arrow was castrated, and shot over the back of the horse.
In the high-pitched neighing of horses, the war horse under Tu Xiong's crotch was pierced into the head by an iron arrow, and the fierce man stood up, rushed out and several infantry fell to the ground, throwing Tu Xiong's body far away for more than ten zhang.
"Prince!"
The surging 3,000 Tugehu cavalry were suddenly in chaos, and they were frightened and unable to possess their bodies.
Seeing that the prince's corpse and war horse were trampled into pulp by the rolling cavalry, leaving not even a piece of intact meat, the eyes of the Tu Gehu cavalry immediately turned red, and the eyes of Hong Tu, who was assembling a large army to line up, were also red.
"My son!"
The corners of Hong Tu's eyes cracked, and he looked up to the sky and roared, as hideous as a ghost.
Tu Xiong was one of his best sons, and one of the tribe's second warriors, but now he was shot and killed in front of his nose, and before the two armies could fight, he was shot by the Han general.
Hong Tu only felt that the hatred in his heart was like a river overturning a mountain, even if he poured out the water of the Baiting Sea, it would be difficult to extinguish.
The hatred of exterminating the clan and the pain of losing a son corroded his strong will like poison.
No matter how resolute and ambitious Hong Tu was, he was almost about to lose his mind and go completely crazy at this moment.
All the Tugohu cavalry also shouted loudly, but to no avail.
At this moment, the surging 3,000 Qiang Hu cavalry and the 3,000 Tu Gehu cavalry who were in chaos because Tu Xiong was shot and killed by Zhao Yun in front of the formation finally collided together without any fancy, and the bloody battle really began.
