Chapter 350: Divide your troops and kill the enemy

The most of the soldiers are the people, what are they doing in the army for, the high is for fame and fortune, and the lowest is to let the relatives behind them live a life without worrying about their lives.

"General, there is a group of Xianbei people plundering in the village ahead." The scout bowed down on his horse.

"Probe again, pay attention to whether there is any trace of the Xianbei army around." Jia Rong always believed that scouts were the foundation of an army, and without scouts, the army would be blind on the battlefield and could not see the changes in the surrounding situation.

Jia Rong grabbed the reins of his horse and made a stop gesture, and the 30,000-strong army slowly stopped, with 5,000 cavalry and 25,000 infantry in the ranks, and the speed of the march was greatly slowed down.

"Feng Xian, order all the people from the headquarters to go with me." Jia Rong's tone was unquestionable.

"No!"

Jia Rong took the lead, followed by five hundred iron cavalry, the army continued to march slowly, and the five hundred people in Lu Bu's headquarters were only inferior to the blood guards in terms of weapons, and this problem had always been Lu Bu's heart disease.

Zhao Yun was worried about Jia Rong's safety, but he still didn't say a word of dissuasion, he was not angry, he was born a commoner, he was not used to seeing the squire bullying the people, so he went to the mountain to learn art, the frontier was in chaos, and led the people of his hometown to join Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Righteous Servant.

The procession continued to march, and there was no noise of tens of thousands of troops except for the occasional neighing of horses and the footsteps of soldiers.

The scimitar showed a little chill in the sunlight, and the five hundred cavalry behind him all raised their scimitars, slapped their horses, and slaughtered the unsuspecting Xianbei people in the village.

The Xianbei cavalry has not yet reacted to when such a Han cavalry team appeared, in the stunned eyes of a soldier, Jia Rong's scimitar split it into two sections, closed the knife and chopped it again, and another cavalry was killed, the whole process was done in one go, without any fancy clothes, with their own strength and superb equestrian skills, even the Xianbei people are difficult to control their bodies flexibly on the horses, but the Han cavalry in front of them seems to be able to reach this point.

The Xianbei people who reacted immediately made a mess, Lingzhou at this time was completely under the control of the Xianbei people, and the Xianbei people in the plundering also lost their original vigilance, and the Han army they encountered before was about to collapse, which made the Xianbei people despise it even more.

"Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away!" This sentence suddenly appeared in the mind of the commander of the Xianbei cavalry, lingering, remembering the old patriarch's Dundun teaching, the commander of the thousand tribes quietly put away the disapproval at first, the Han people are not so easy to bully.

"Kill!" Jia Rong roared angrily, and the scimitar in his hand pointed towards the Xianbei people.

I have to say that the quality of the Xianbei cavalry is indeed very high, in the face of a sudden attack by an enemy twice as large as themselves, the soldiers only had the initial panic, under the command of the commander, turned over their horses, began to fight, grew up on horseback, endured a harsh environment, and did not suffer any hardships, like such a sudden attack, not to mention that it was easy to deal with, so as not to let the enemy's attack appear devastating.

Not only that, the Xianbei cavalry also had the qualities that the Han cavalry did not have, they were able to hold their weapons while sleeping, to ensure that the war horses were by their side, and any situation would happen in the tribes on the grassland, and the wars and annexations between the tribes were going on all the time.

Looking at the Xianbei people organizing the attack, Jia Rong sneered, in front of the powerful Xiliang army, such resistance is so powerless, the Xianbei people are the king and hegemon in front of the Huns, and their eyes are empty, because they have not encountered the Xiliang army, the real elite of the Xiliang army, and the charge can completely defeat this group of Xianbei cavalry who have not just started to ride their horses.

From this moment on, Jia Rong was going to use iron-blooded means to tell these hungry wolves from the grassland desert and let them see who the real tigers were.

What the Xianbei commander did not expect was that the Xianbei cavalry, which had always regarded itself as a warrior, was defeated and retreated under the offensive of the Han cavalry, no, it should be described as devastating, the strange weapons in the hands of the Han cavalry can take the life of a Xianbei warrior every time they are wielded, and the Han cavalry seems to be tireless, and quickly put away the knife and hand it out again, the weapons in the hands of these cavalry are the weapons that the well-informed commander has never encountered.

What made him even more frightened was that there was a Han cavalryman holding a halberd, and the cavalry of his own side who fought with him had no enemy, and he rode his horse across this not very wide battlefield, invincible.

Half an hour later, the battle ended, two hundred Xianbei cavalry were killed and wounded, the commander was captured by Lu Bu, and the remaining cavalry fled in all directions.

After the Xiliang army cleaned up the battlefield, it sent scouts to explore the surrounding situation, and the rest of the soldiers rested in place, waiting for the arrival of the army.

Wiping a handful of blood stains on his face, Jia Rong ordered the soldiers to bring the Xianbei commander up, and at the beginning of the war, Jia Rong looked at this Xianbei man who was dressed differently from ordinary soldiers, mainly because the clothes on this guy's body were better than the tattered Xianbei soldiers.

"Ask him, what position does he hold in Xianbei, and how many Xianbei people are around?"

Fighting with the Xianbei people, Jia Rong made full preparations, and there were naturally no fewer people who were proficient in the Xianbei language.

After muttering a conversation, the soldier walked up to Jia Rong with a guilty face and bowed: "General, I only know that this person is a Xianbei commander, and the rest will not say anything no matter how the humble position asks." ”

Jia Rong said with a cold face: "Tell him that the people of the Han Dynasty will not suffer innocent deaths, and all the Xianbei people who enter the Han realm will die!" ”

The atmosphere was eerily quiet, there was no joy after the big victory, Jia Rong's words were categorical, there was no room for negotiation, thinking of the tragic death of the Han people and the village in front of him after being plundered, the gaze of every thing at the Xianbei captives made these captives shudder.

When the soldier translated the words to the commander of Xianbei, the Xianbei people, who had always been unruly, did not scold, and looked at Jia Rong with a pale and quiet face.

"Except for this commander, all the captured Xianbei cavalry were killed." Looking at the traces of the burning of the village in front of him, and some Han people who died, he gritted his teeth and said.

As soon as Jia Rong's words fell, more than 30 heads sprayed blood, and after the headless corpse convulsed for a moment, it lay quietly in a pool of blood.

After the village was plundered by the Xianbei people, there were no survivors except for a dozen weeping women, and when they saw the victory of the Han soldiers, the women wept and threw themselves at the corpses in the village.

The scene in front of him made Jia Rong can't help but think of Lijia Village, a village with simple folk customs and honest people.

At this moment, Jia Rong made up his mind to swear to let the Xianbei people roll back to the grassland, as for the injustices created in the Han realm, they will definitely be repaid in the future.

If you want to completely defeat the Xianbei people, the 30,000 Xiliang army must have a stable rear, the Xianbei people pay attention to the quick battle, each cavalry with enough rations for ten days can gallop in the Han territory, to fight to nourish the war, but the Xiliang army does not have this condition.

In local warfare, we must not only take into account the reserve of grain and grass, but also take care of the people.

The Xiliang army was stationed in the county seat, and the Beidi County lost the land of the two counties, but fortunately, the people of the Beidi County were already strong, and they defended the city under the organization of the county orders in various places, and the garrison of the county town was also considered strong, and the defenders in the city were about 2,000 people, most of whom were Yuan Peng's subordinates in the past.

The news of the arrival of Jia Rong leading the army spread in the city, and the people were simple, otherwise there would not have been tens of thousands of people following Jia Rong to Jincheng.

The Xiliang army took over the defense of the city very smoothly, fortunately there were still city defense equipment in the city, Jia Rong distributed the weapons in the warehouse to Yuan Pengbu's soldiers, assisted the Xiliang army to defend the city, and some people volunteered to join the Xiliang army, and Jia Rong was arranged to carry consumables such as wooden boulders and arrows during the war, and was responsible for patrolling the city on weekdays, "Let the enemy fall into the sea of people!" This sentence flashed in Jia Rong's mind.

After coming to the Eastern Han Dynasty for so long, Jia Rong is no longer the rookie of the original battle, and the movements of the Xianbei people on the battlefield of the entire Beidi County must be under control.

The cavalry is good at field warfare rather than attacking fortifications, the same is true of the Xianbei people, the defense of the city was handed over to Zhang Wei and Guo Yan, Jia Rong led five thousand cavalry to the battlefield, the Xianbei people are plundering in the Han territory, Jia Rong can not sit idly by.

Each cavalryman brought enough rations for ten days.

There were 30,000 Han soldiers in Beidi County who did not escape the eyes of the Xianbei people, and the Xianbei people who were good at field warfare paid more attention to the news delivered by the scouts.

Attacking Beidi County is the Murong clan in the middle and Que Ju in the west, Xianbei Khan and Lian died bizarrely after attacking Beidi County, Beidi County naturally became the place to bear the anger of the Xianbei people, Que Ju had suffered a loss at the hands of Jia Rong in Beiping, and his general Tuyan was killed, resulting in a great loss of his reputation in the tribe, and he did not dare to attack Yanmen Pass and Beiping, Que Ju picked the soft persimmon of Beidi County, but he did not expect to meet Jia Rong bizarrely, I have to say that it is a kind of fate.

The attack on the area around Yanmen Pass was the eastern Queji, and the eastern part of Xianbei was currently the most powerful in Xianbei.

The Xianbei people carried forward the habits of the past, after entering the Han realm, they divided their troops and plundered, and learned the experience of the last defeat in Youzhou, each of the Xianbei people plundered the cavalry of five hundred, sending scouts to each other, leading the whole body, as long as the Han cavalry appeared, the surrounding Xianbei cavalry will give support at the first time.
