"Lord Xugu, is the Han army really so powerful? I see that the officials and soldiers of Lingzhou are okay to defend the city, and if they really want to go out of the city to fight, they can't do anything to us?" Yu Dan, a cavalryman in his early twenties, asked unceremoniously while playing with the reins of his horse, he had some suspicions that this relatively thin looking Gu Lai had been hollowed out by wine, so that those Han people who farmed with hoes all year round were stronger than him. Although the Tubo tribe in Liangzhou adopted the Han people, they were still aristocratic in nature, and Yu Dan was of noble blood, and he was not very polite to talk to Shangguan.

"Hmph, it's not awesome, you'll know if you run into them. "For this kind of rookie who has just entered the battlefield, he is too lazy to see him in general, this kind of person is likely to die in the first encounter, and he does not respect the veteran, so he is now considered a dead man.

Yu Dan heard that the tone of the deviant was not good, he was silent at the moment, and he sneered again and again, the courage in the Tubo army is respected, although he is only forty years, in his eyes, he is already in the waning mountains, and he still has the face to lead these more than 100 heroes who ride horses and bend bows. Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a cold arrow shot out of the forest in front of him, which was inserted into his throat, Yu Dan covered his throat, his wide eyes were full of disbelief, and he fell off the horse with a bang.

"Enemy attack!" the Tubo scouts, who were suddenly ambushed, shouted loudly, and the young warriors drew their scimitars one after another, coiled their horses, and several bloody people rushed towards the forest that had released arrows. Lai Lixu and a few veterans did not move, and identified that the number of arrows fired by the enemy in a round was in the hundreds, and Lai Lixu shouted: "What are you looking at me, the enemy is outnumbered, retreat quickly, retreat quickly!" and ignoring those comrades who had already rushed forward on horseback, he led dozens of veterans to rush back and forth first.

As he rode his horse and spied back, he saw countless cavalry rushing out of the foothills, many of whom were still wearing steppe-style leather robes, and the Uighur scouts who rushed to the past were shot off their horses in the first three rounds of arrow rain. Looking at the continuous posture of the enemy cavalry, there are thousands of riders, it seems that Wu Yingying is ready to make a big move against Liangzhou, and he has to quickly return the news to Lord Gezhi. Lai Lixu desperately beat his horse and fled eastward.

"How can Liangzhou Tubo, which cannot be despised in the mouths of adults, be so vulnerable? It is not as strong and good at war as the Mongolian tribes on the steppe. Pu Hangu, the centurion of the high-hoof battalion, was quite puzzled in his heart, could it be that these people were just ordinary tribal soldiers? He didn't care about this, in the past, in order to reorganize the Hexi domain with peace of mind, Wu Hero restrained the hussar army and prevented it from crossing the Rouge Mountain, and at this moment, the whole army of the hussars, as the vanguard of Wu Hero's army, was responsible for clearing the road to the front of Liangzhou City, and naturally moved forward.

"Chase, chase to the city of Liangzhou, and rip off his grandmother's pants. Pu Hangu shouted loudly, raised her horse lance, and pointed in the direction of the retreat of the Tubo people. In the recent battle, this sharp horse lance drank less human blood, which made him feel a little regretful, the armor blade of Liangzhou Tubo was much sharper than the Mongolian tribes on the grassland, except for the first two battles, but he was unwilling to fight with the hussars on the opposite side of the bright light, so far, the Hussars killed the Tubo cavalry are also shot more. Don't you know that my hussars are good at riding and shooting, and your archery skills are not as good as ours, and you still have some money in hand-to-hand combat? Pu Hangu shook her head. In this world, there is only one army that uses one's own life as the capital of one's own. Like the cheap life of the Liangzhou soldiers, what they earn does not belong to themselves, but what they grab in private belongs to themselves, no wonder they have the courage to loot and are cowardly in public war.

Come and leave the hussar cavalry of Hexi Hussar Army, desperately riding their horses and running away, the wind is blowing in the ears, with the sharp whistle of arrows, this sound is a common thing for the cavalry of the feudal clan, it is used by the commander to shoot out for the rear cavalry to guide the direction, each commander makes a different sound, and the cavalry below can hear clearly. The Central Plains army often used the golden drum banner to send orders, but it did not often use this sound. Hearing the sound of the sound behind the ear has been chasing non-stop, the creepy fear that rose in the heart of the detached, ruthless, took out the dagger, and stabbed the horse on the strand, the horse neighed in pain, and rushed forward, and the sound of the sound behind him gradually faded away.

Frightened to flee for his life, Lai Lixu only ran along the official road to Liangzhou Prefecture, the horse was stabbed by his dagger, after running for a while, the blood gradually ran out, seeing that it was getting slower and slower, it was going to die, and Lai Lixu was in a hurry. He looked from afar, fortunately there was a post station of Tibetan soldiers and horses not far away, so he drove the half-dead horse to the door of the post station, put on a full posture, and shouted: "There is an important military report to make an envoy, bring the post horse to me quickly, and bring some water and dried meat." ”

Liangzhou place is only hundreds of miles, this post station was originally used to receive tribute from the Western Regions to the Middle Earth of the Fanbang season, by the way to levy heavy taxes, the post chief is a Han people, but he recognizes these warriors under the command of the Ge Zhijie envoy, seeing the appearance of the bully who came to detach himself, he did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly led a good horse, and said: "The lord forgives the sin, and the little official goes here to prepare water and other things." After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and went to collect supplies.

Lai Lixu waited impatiently outside the post station, and after a while, there were more and more Tubo cavalry gathered in front of the post station to ask for supplies, and everyone's war horses were running at the mouth, and they heard them say that the cavalry of the Hexi Han Army had been chasing after them tightly, and they were about to arrive, and Lai Lixu's heart was even more anxious, he saw that the post chief arranged for the post man to come out with a large plate of dried meat and water bladders, and Lai Lixu's face changed suddenly, and he asked: "How many horses are there in the post station?" Holding the handle of the knife in his hand, his eyes showed a fierce light. The little official of the post station did not have it, and when he saw Shangguan's question, he replied honestly: "There are more than 100 catties of dried meat and 20 healthy horses." ”

Lai Liyu asked again: "The subordinates in the post station, have all come out to serve?" Although he fled in a hurry, he spoke arrogantly to the post station officials, which is also a habit that has been cultivated for a long time.

The little official replied respectfully, "They have all come out to serve the officials." He saw that the healthy horses under the crotch of the Tibetan cavalry were panting, frowned and said: "There are not enough spare horses in the post station, I am afraid that all the commanders will not be able to replace them with stagecoaches." I also asked the chief to say a word or two for the villain. There was worry in his tone, because these Tibetan cavalry had always been arrogant and domineering, and there were only twenty post horses, and each of them could not be assigned to change horses. Even the wives and concubines of these subordinate officials have also suffered insults.

"You don't have to worry about this," Lai Lixuan showed a sneer on his face, and when the little official lowered his head, he pulled out his scimitar and wiped it on his neck, and the blood splashed out, and the little official looked up at Lai Lixu in horror, and tried in vain with both hands to cover the bubbling blood, and finally fell to the ground with a thud. "Kill all the people at the post station, take away the horses, and burn the grain and grass!" Lai Liyu raised his head and said coldly. Most of the postmen who received the envoys were Han Chinese and familiar with the roads, and although killing them might not prevent the Han army in Hexi from finding a suitable guide, he felt a burst of joy when he came to leave. The Han army attacked Hexi on a large scale, and Liangzhou seemed to be unable to be saved. These occupy the Central Plains Hu people, although they are called kings and hegemons, but they always have some meaning of being crowned by monkeys, always worried that one day they will be driven back to the grassland, from the bottom of their hearts they do not regard themselves as the masters of this place, and they spare no effort to practice the place, just like putting horses in the green wheat fields, most of them because they have a private idea of "anyway, it is a Han place, it's a big deal to go back".
