Chapter 34: The Battle of Qingxia

The guard general of Qingxia is surnamed Wu Yuanshao, a native of Qingxia County, Yanmen, and he patrols as usual, but today is particularly unusual, it is the breath of war.

Wu Yuanshao felt that his right eyelid was jumping, and he was a little uneasy, so he sent a scout to investigate.

After a while, the scouts returned.

Wu Yuanshao looked at the scout with a frightened expression, and felt bad when he was embarrassed.

"General, Beidi is coming, there are thousands of people, and they are fully equipped." The scout breathed heavily, as if that was how he could feel alive.

Hearing the number of people, Wu Yuanshao breathed a sigh of relief, after all, Qingxia is a fortress, and the army stationed there is not small.

But before Wu Yuanshao could relax, he heard a message that was enough to make his heart stop.

"General, there is a man named Wu Datong who is traveling with me, he knows some Beidi language, and I heard the man who looks like the leader of Beidi say that they are just forwards, and there are large troops following behind."

Wu Yuanshao's pupils dilated unconsciously, what did Beidi want to do?

"Will ...... General, we, what are we going to do? We can't be the opponent of tens of thousands of Beidi! The scout was clearly frightened, his voice trembling and even trying to flee without a fight.

"You don't have to fight even if you're an opponent." Wu Yuanshao looked to the southeast, and a hundred miles southeast from Qingxia is Qingxia County!

At least there are natural dangers to defend in Qingxia, if the enemy breaks through Qingxia, how long can the earthen city wall of the county hold out?

He has to fight, behind him is his hometown, and he has no way out.

"Heralds - Drum Beating!"

"No."

The drums sounded, and all the soldiers in Qingxia knew that war was coming.

Wu Yuanshao sent a lot of heralds to convey messages to the border cities, and the Beidi people invaded south.

Wu Yuanshao sent the most people to Yanmen Fucheng, which was not only to inform Fucheng to take precautions, but also to ask Fucheng for help.

After Qingxia, there is no danger to defend for more than 1,000 miles, if Qingxia is lost, it is equivalent to letting the wolf go to the sheepfold, and the county soldiers can't attack the hungry wolf at all.

Let's hope everything is in time......

The heralds who were sent out also knew that the situation was urgent, and they also hurried to the horse, and did not dare to delay in the slightest.

The guards beside Wu Yuanshao asked puzzledly: "General, why don't you use the post station to transmit the message, if you use the post station, you don't need to send out so many soldiers." The big war is imminent, and one more soldier will have more combat power. ”

"Because the station is no longer the same stationβ€”"

Wu Yuanshao sighed, patted the shoulder of the guard, and walked onto the point platform, he wanted to make the final mobilization before the war.

"Soldiers, the great enemy is coming, and I, Wu Yuanshao, will not hide it from you, the more than 1,000 cavalry that are attacking are only the vanguard, and there are still Beidi's brigades behind."

Wu Yuanshao's words made the originally orderly queue chaotic all of a sudden, and the soldiers began to talk to each other.

Wu Yuanshao's personal guards scolded in unison: "Silence! If there is another person who talks to each other, it will be dealt with by military law! ”

Under the deterrence of military law, the riots finally subsided.

But the soldiers were still panicking, and not many of them were able to face death calmly.

Wu Yuanshao saw that the queue was quiet before continuing: "Soldiers, I know that your hearts are very scared, but we have no way back. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, most of you are from Yanmen."

"And the Qingxia we are guarding is the last line of defense in the northwest of Yanmen, once Qingxia is breached, the entire Yanmen will show the softest belly to Beidi."

"Once Qingxia is lost, where can you flee to? Even if you are lucky enough to escape from Yanmen, waiting for you to engage in military law. As long as you are a deserter, the ends of the earth, Da Zhou will find you! ”

All the soldiers showed a thoughtful look, yes, General Wu was right, where could they flee?

Whether they are from Yanmen or not, they have no way to escape, there is Beidi in the front, and there is military law in the back, can they only wait for death?

"I know you may be frustrated, but since we have no way back, why not fight against the water?"

"I've already sent a herald to ask for help, as long as we can hold out until reinforcements arrive, we have hope of life!"

Wu Yuanshao drew a big pie for the soldiers, but he didn't know if he could wait for reinforcements, but it was better to have hope than no hope.

"Soldiers, behind us is our hometown, and our relatives and friends are behind us. Even if we all die in the end, at least we bring hope to our relatives and friends! ”

"The longer we persist in Qingxia, the more hope our relatives and friends will have. And, I use my worth to sit as a guarantee, kill a Beidi person, and reward five taels of silver! ”

In the end, Wu Yuanshao used relatives, friends, and money to inspire the soldiers. What inspires soldiers the most is not the righteousness, but the people and things that are closely related to the soldiers.

The soldiers from Yanmen were successfully mobilized by Wu Yuanshao, their relatives and friends were behind them, and they were not only guarding Qingxia, but also their relatives and friends.

The soldiers who were not from Yanmen were also successfully mobilized by Wu Yuanshao, and there must be brave men under the heavy reward.

Everything is ready, they are waiting for the Beidi people to come in Qingxia!

Noa looked at the heavily guarded Qingxia in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Damn, why did that arrow miss in the first place?" Let that scout of the Zhou people run back to report the news, and the prepared Qingxia will make us lose more sons! ”

"Don't be upset. Nua, if Qingxia is so easy to defeat, it won't be Qingxia. Instead of being annoyed by what has already happened, it is better to wash away the shame in the upcoming battle. ”

"Yes, Zuo Qianhu, Nua will definitely use the heads of the Zhou people to wash away the shame."

Wu Yuanshao and Tigu both found each other in the crowd.

This look at each other, sparks lit up in the eyes of both sides.

This battle is either you die or I die!

Under the voice of the commanders of both sides, the battle of Qingxia began......

At first, it was a defensive attack by the enemy.

The enemy's cavalry rose to the rain of arrows, one group fell, and the next group came up.

Noah even personally led the warriors of their tribe to kill three times, but each time they were repelled by a rain of arrows.

Noah watched the tribe's warriors continue to suffer casualties, and her heart was very sad.

He came to Tigu's side and said: "Zuo Qianhu, it can't go on like this, the Qingxia Pass is narrow, the Zhou people are still condescending, and under the blockade of the Zhou people's arrow rain, our warriors are just sent to death in vain." ”

Tigu looked at the casualties of the tribal warriors and frowned, it really can't go on like this, if everyone fights out, won't he become a bare-bones commander?

Tigu really didn't expect Qingxia to be so difficult to fight. Yongwu and the sea of people are a joke in front of Qingxia. The Zhou people only need to block the narrow passage with long-range weapons, what can they do except send them to death in batches?

Qingxia can really be opened by one husband and ten thousand people

Damn, I know that there are no good tasks that fall on these small tribes of them.

When people are gone, what if they have more possessions? No one simply can't stand possessions.

If you want to find a way, you have to find a way, they are already difficult to ride a horse.

On the other side, the soldiers of Da Zhou saw that the enemy was repulsing in waves north, and their morale was greatly boosted.

But Wu Yuanshao was not relaxed because he had the upper hand for a while, because the arrows were not endless.

When they run out of arrows, one of their great advantages disappears.

Reinforcements from the Beidi people may come at any time, but the reinforcements of the Great Zhou do not know when they will arrive.

There are quite a few defenders in Qingxia, but they are not too many, at least they are used to form a formation to resist the cavalry, and the number is far from enough.

Due to the terrain of Qingxia, there are not many horses in the Qingxia garrison, not to mention that the herald soldiers have ridden a lot of good horses......

These are all problems that Wu Yuanshao needs to face.

Tigu watched the tribe's sons continue to be damaged, and he finally couldn't take it anymore.

Tigu lifted the collar of Sena, the envoy from the royal court, with one hand, and put a scimitar across Sena's neck with the other, and asked, "Sena, you tell Lao Tzu, when will the reinforcements arrive?" ”

"Calm down, Tigu, do you want to make enemies with the royal court? I assure you, this time it is a big plan for the Zhou people, and the royal court's reinforcements will arrive soon! ”

Reassured, Tigu loosened Sena's collar. What if you don't believe it? As Sena said, can he still have a bad relationship with the royal court?

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"How come those damn Zhou people have so many arrows!"

"They have a lot of arrows, and we have a lot of slaves......"

Sena was not angry with Tycus for being threatened with a knife, and he was even making suggestions on Tigus's behalf. He said that this is a plan of the royal court against the Zhou people.

"You mean......" Tigu seemed to wake up all at once.

【Small Theater】

In April of the first year of Yonghe, Yanmen Qingxia.

Wu Yuanshao glanced at the southeast helplessly: "After all, can't you wait for reinforcements......

The pro-army around Wu Yuanshao closely guarded their main general and did not let the enemy hurt their main general.

Seeing that the situation was almost irreparable, a personal guard suggested to Wu Yuanshao: "General, we will give you your palace, you can withdraw!" Qingxia is hopeless. ”

Wu Yuanshao pushed away a personal guard, rushed out, and showed his attitude with practical actions.

"Where to retreat? I am the Qingxia guard, Qingxia is in me, and I will die if Qingxia dies. It doesn't matter if it's dead, I'm waiting, waiting for the soldiers of the Great Zhou to come to Qingxia to collect my body! ”

"Killβ€”"

Seeing that the main general did not abandon them, the remnants of Qingxia were also inspired to the last bravery, the main general was not afraid of death, they were also afraid of a ball. It's a big deal, my head has a big scar, and I'm a good man again eighteen years later!

The soldiers' knives were already curled, but they still wielded them tirelessly.

Xiao Jiu is also one of the people who don't want to die.

His knife also rolled up, and as soon as he slashed down, the enemy's blood spurted Xiao Jiuyi. But the knife that swept the man did not inflict fatal damage on the enemy.

After the enemy fell, he quietly stood up again.

At this time, Xiao Jiu was fighting with another enemy, and the enemy who stood up was behind Xiao Jiu and wanted to sneak attack.

The enemy's knife is getting closer and closer to Xiao Jiu. At this moment of crisis, a Zhou soldier who had his leg cut off hugged the enemy who wanted to sneak attack.

He killed the enemy with his elbows, his head, and his teeth.

But he was in danger, and his blood was not only his enemy's, but also his own.

There was so much blood......

The entire Qingxia, the blood of the enemy, the blood of one's own people, soaked the land of the Qingxia.
