Chapter 46: Quelling the Rebellion
"Xingyun!" Xiahou Ba's expression moved.
"The subordinates are willing to lead the headquarters and recapture the Caohan." Yang Zheng clenched his fists and said.
When I came to the northwest to thank him for his care, it was time to repay the service.
Solve the trouble of the leader, and the leader will really treat you as his own.
The eyes of everyone in the hall flashed, some admired, some doubted, and some jealous.
"You're only four hundred!" Xiahou Ba reminded.
"There are not many soldiers, it lies in the timing of the shot, the weather is cold, the thieves are ambitious, they are not good at defending the city, they will not be prepared, their subordinates will rush forward with light horses, and if they strike suddenly, the thieves will be defeated!"
Yang Zheng dared to stand up, and he also had enough confidence, this winter, the other battalion soldiers were nesting in the camp tent, but Yang Zheng led his subordinates to train without fear of the cold.
Today it finally has a place to use.
If you are robbed of your merits, you don't know if you can come out in the Year of the Monkey.
Moreover, these 400 subordinates are all elites of the Chinese army, who have experienced countless lives and deaths, and their combat effectiveness is comparable to that of thieves?
Xiahou Ba stroked his palms and laughed, "Okay, Xingyun will definitely be able to make a contribution here!" Come and reward each person with a pair of iron armor, a sharp blade, and three catties of spirits! ”
"Thank you, General." Yang Zheng took a deep breath.
Xiahouba personally went out of the city to see him off.
A glass of hot wine, Yang Zheng drank it all, "Thieves are not to be afraid, their subordinates will break them if they go." ”
"Zhuang, a certain is waiting for good news in Didao!" Xiahou Ba also drank hot wine and patted Yang Zheng on the shoulder.
On the snow, four hundred and seven horsemen lined up, and the war horses spewed white gas from their mouths and noses.
There was not the slightest hint of fear in the soldier's eyes.
They are brave men on the battlefield.
Yang Zheng's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and he felt that these four hundred and seven people had the same heart as himself, "The thieves attacked my city and slaughtered my people, this revenge must be avenged, all the armies listen to the order, follow me to capture Caohan!" ”
"No!" There was a loud bang, and snow fell from the eaves of the earthquake.
Ride fast and smash the snow and ice.
In the past, he fought passively, but now he is fighting for himself, which is naturally not the same.
Even the horses are much lighter.
No matter how cold the ice and snow are, it can't extinguish the blood in the chest.
In order to give the enemy the most sudden blow, Yang Zheng went all the way non-stop, tired and froze to death more than forty war horses, and it took two days to rush to Caohan.
If you don't have to worry about the cold at night, you can shorten the day.
Caohan is a county seat, and the city wall built by loess is only one person high, so it is no wonder that the Qiang people suddenly launched and Zhang Yan abandoned the city.
The heads of the people with painful expressions were stuck on the city wall, lined up, and their pale eyes were looking at Yang Zheng and the four hundred and seven soldiers under his command.
The cold wind hit, the hair flew wildly, and the whimpering sound seemed to be a low cry of an unjust soul.
The corpses of the lost heads were discarded haphazardly outside the city.
The blood had solidified into a long river of red ice.
At this moment, the thieves were still indulging in the joy of plundering, and the screams of women were heard from time to time in the city, and the thieves' loud laughter was like a ghost crying wolf.
Although he had been born and died on the battlefield many times, seeing such a scene, Yang Zheng's heart beat a few times.
This is a time of beasts.
Looking back at his subordinates, he said coldly: "Don't leave any of them!" ”
The soldier also held back the same anger in his eyes, "No! ”
Why was Duan Cheng able to quell the chaos?
Only Iron Blood!
If you want to gain a foothold in this troubled world, you only have iron and blood!
How many enemies there are in the city, Yang Zheng doesn't care, and he doesn't want to know.
I only know that my monstrous anger needs to be released at this moment.
The thieves have no military discipline and are defenseless.
Yang Zheng led people to touch the city wall, but they still didn't notice it.
It wasn't until the screams of the first thief rang out that the city realized that the enemy had arrived.
No, it's the beast coming.
Beasts more ferocious than them.
A beast in iron armor with a sharp ring-headed sword.
The flying blood quickly stained the world in front of Yang Zheng.
If killing can bring a glimmer of light to this era in this world, he will not hesitate to kill and kill the so-called Wei and Jin romances!
Only hatred is not enough!
Carrying the Hua Ling sword in front, the left and right armor arrays advanced.
Everywhere he passed, the severed limbs and severed arms flew together with the heads.
The laughter turned into screams.
In front of the Wuwei battalion, the thieves were not worthy of the army at all, there was no array, no equipment, they were huddled together in a chaotic manner, and they only resisted tenaciously with the courage of blood.
But this revolt was doomed to futility.
The blood of these four hundred and seven people is no worse than theirs.
The city of Caohan was full of blood.
In the midst of the crying and screaming, Yang Zheng suddenly heard the roar of the women, looked into the city, and saw more than a dozen women, carrying broken knives, also slashing and killing thieves.
There was chaos everywhere, and the thieves trampled on each other and fled out of the city.
The thieves, unable to escape, fell to their knees and were mercilessly hacked to death by the women.
Zhang Tewei screamed, and after asking Yang Zheng for his life, he took a hundred people to support the team of women.
Inspired by the women, more and more people in the city participated in the killing of thieves.
Thanks to their help, the thieves finally couldn't resist and collapsed.
The blood on Yang Zheng's body froze into ice.
Unsurprisingly, the city of Caohan was taken, and this small border city had been dyed red.
"What about our casualties?" Yang Zheng is most concerned about this matter.
"Three were killed and forty-one were seriously wounded." Zhang Tedao.
Yang Zheng sighed in his heart, it is impossible to have no casualties in a cold weapon war.
The thief's resistance is very tenacious, and the iron armor cannot withstand all damage.
"How many people survived?"
"Less than a thousand, mostly women and children......," Zhang Te's eyes were gloomy.
The city of Sohan has been ruined.
"Be careful tonight in case the thieves come back, and clean up the corpses in the city tomorrow." Yang Zheng was a little excited.
"No."
The sound of a woman's crying was constantly heard in the night, mixed with the cold wind, which was particularly terrifying.
made it difficult for Yang Zheng to sleep.
I didn't fall asleep until dawn.
When he woke up, it was already noon, and Yang Zheng asked people to report to Di Dao City quickly.
As I thought, the thieves are vulnerable, they tend to unite when they gather, and once the city is breached, they focus on killing and plundering.
No matter how many troops there are, they are useless.
Yang Zheng fought fast and slow, with mental calculations and unintentional, and when he entered the army in the wind and snow, he was naturally invincible.
Without anyone's orders, the only remaining civilians in the city spontaneously cleaned up the corpses.
Women and children struggled to peel off the leather armor and clothing from the corpses in the cold wind.
They collected everything they could use.
Yang Zheng took the initiative to go down to help, and the soldiers also came to help when they saw it.
There are many ravines on all sides, high in the southwest, low in the northeast, the Yellow River in the north, Lishui in the south, the land is fertile, you can graze and cultivate, and you can also hide soldiers in the southwest mountains.
Poor is a little poor, but for Yang Zheng, it is a treasure of feng shui.
But it's precisely because of poverty that no one robs him.
Sure enough, six days later, someone from Di Dao City came, bringing Xiahouba's commendation order and rewards.
He also promised to ask for credit from Chang'an.
That's the benefit of having a good relationship with your leader.
Since he didn't let himself go back, it meant to stay in Caohan.
In the middle of Yang Zheng's thoughts, he hurriedly wrote a reply, saying that although the thief retreated, he still had the heart to watch and was willing to guard Caohan and resist the thief.
