Chapter 112: See the Sneak Attack Again

Qishan Road is the only passage for Hanzhong to go out of Tianshui and enter the ancient Silk Road, and it is famous because Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan six times (historical records record that Zhuge Liang only has two out of Qishan). It starts from Qishan Fort in Lixian County, Gansu Province, along the West Han River, out of the long road, through Xihe County, through Shixia, Shaba to Chengzhou, walked a '匚' and then through Niyang, go to Jiangluo, cross the Dangjiagou to Hui County and walk a '匚', in the Iron Mountain into the old road.

Zhuge Liang first came out of Qishan and failed because of the misuse of Ma Tan. This is said in history, but I remember that Zu Long once commented when he read "Three Kingdoms", "The defeat of Kong Ming is defeated in the division of troops."

According to his memory, he sent Guo Yong and Gao Bao with the cavalry regiment of the second division and the first division, and the two supplementary battalions of the independent regiment of the Flying Tiger Army, totaling 10,000 people, marched into Chengzhou and attacked Liu Kui's 12,000-strong Jin army in Chengzhou.

This Liu Kui is not the Liu Kui of the Northern Sect, he is a nephew of Liu Yu. This time, Jin Wushu wanted to attack Sichuan, and asked Liu Yu, who was pseudo-Qi, to send troops to support, Liu Yu sent his nephew Liu Kui, appointed as Sichuan's envoy, and let him bring 70,000 people to march into Sichuan with Jin Wushu.

Liu Kui acted as the pawn of Jin Wushu this time, and he had been charging in front of him when he attacked the old road, and saw his soldiers die one by one, and the troops of Xia, Xi, and Yong that Jin Wushu originally led had nothing to do, and the heartache was indescribable. Will Sichuan really give itself as the people of Jin Guo said? He didn't believe it, at least he didn't miss the Jin people as much as his uncle Deyu. However, he is just a pawn of Jin Jun's subordinates, and has he been the master?

A few days ago, Jin Wushu asked him to bring 15,000 troops to Chengzhou to Daxihe Road, the head of the Mabu Army, Guan Gushi, and he was very happy to let him lead the army independently. In the battle of Zuo Yaoling, he sent 3,000 cavalry to raid the rear army of the Guan Gu division and broke up his rear army, but what was not the difference was that the Guan Gu division was afraid of death, his command system dragged back, and the raiding horse army just rushed into his big tent and captured him, and the 3,000 team was beaten to less than 2,000 people, but they caught the Guan Gu division, but let them safely retreat to their camp.

In this battle, the opponent lost 5,000 people, and he lost 3,000 people, and he also captured the main general of the other party, which can be said to be a great victory. For this reason, Jin Wushu also rewarded himself with a jade Guanyin, two women, and a lot of money.

It can be said that during this period of time, Liu Kui is like the days of this season, and the spring breeze is proud.

Liu Kui stationed more than 12,000 of his people in two places, of which 5,000 were stationed in Niyang, and he led more than 7,000 people in Chengzhou to become horns. Niyang is only less than 30 miles away from Chengzhou, and it is still very convenient to support each other. Besides, Wu Jue's troops are fighting to the death with Jin Wushu, and the Xihe Road Mabu Army that was originally in Chengzhou has all been attached to Wu Jue's men, so what else can be a threat to himself except for a few thieves who haunt at dusk? Liu Kui was very relieved, he had a few comfortable days in Chengzhou, he could take a bath and play with women every day, and he was waiting for the victory of the Golden Vulture to attack the Immortal Pass.

According to Gao Pang's memory, after nearly a month of reconnaissance, the road from the Qinghe River to Niyang was demarcated, and this road was closer than the old Qishan Road to Chengzhou, and more than 200 miles closer to Huixian. But this road is all the road taken by the mountain people, it is difficult to walk, and the time is not under the old Qi Mountain Road. However, Gao Zhong went out of Tianshui to Jiang Luoqi to attack Liu Kui, blocked the communication channel between Liu Kui and the Jin army, and cut off Liu Kui's support for the Jin Wushu soldiers, and no one could meet him.

Before Gao Yan arrived at the camp at Wu Jiexianren Pass, Guo Tong's cavalry regiment of the second and first divisions and the supplementary battalion of the Flying Tiger Army had already ambushed in the area of the Shan Gully west of Jiangluo, waiting for Wu Jue's overall military plan. In fact, regardless of whether Wu Jue agrees to the joint operation, it does not change Gao Chong's attack on Liu Kui's 12,000-thousand-gold army. But it is clear that the alliance with Wu Jue can achieve the greatest effect.

At 3 p.m. on 28 February, a cavalry detachment came out of the ditch and quickly cleared and controlled the area around the river, blocking the entry and exit of all men. Thus cutting off the communication between Chengzhou and Hui County. An hour later, the sun set in the west, and the army in Luoyang rushed towards the town of Nihe, which was twenty miles away. At this time, Liu Kui, who had 5,000 people, was having dinner, they thought that the day of peace was about to pass, but they didn't expect that many people had taken off their armor at this time, according to the slightest preparation, they saw that the Western Xia army was rushing, and the enemy attacks came one after another, but because the Jin army had not yet organized an effective defense, the rejection of horses and the deer fence in front of the camp did not have much time to be broken, Guo Yong's cavalry had rushed into the camp, and the cavalry of the Western Xia army had been wreaking havoc in the barracks.

The leader of this Niyang Town is Liu Kui's deputy general*, he was also having dinner with a few partial generals, and when he heard the alarm of the enemy attack, he hurriedly asked a few partial generals to organize people and horses, turned over on his horse himself, and ran in the direction of Beizhaimen with more than 200 personal soldiers. Kai's soldiers also joined his team on the way. But as it was time for dinner, their horses had been sent to the makeshift stables in the ditch ahead, which had long been under the control of the supplementary battalion. In addition to a few generals, more than a thousand horse troops were turned into infantry. After Guo Yong rushed through the gate, there was only some sporadic resistance. The biggest resistance was the more than 700 people led by Liu Kui's adjutant general*, and these 700 people were joined by soldiers one after another.

But he passed the cavalry regiment led by Zhou Lizheng, these infantry were the opponents of the cavalry, and after a while, more than 700 people in this regiment were scattered by Zhou Lizheng's cavalry, and they died and fled. Rushing through a wave of cavalry, at the gate of the camp, a tall general rode on a horse, holding a long lance in his hand, majestic, behind him was more than 50 people of personal guards, he coldly looked at the wolf suddenly out* and more than 50 people under his command, saw * outstanding encirclement, said:

"You're Liu Kui's lieutenant?"

"It's Ben General, who are you?"

"I was supposed to be the commander of the cavalry regiment of the second division of the Wolf Tooth Army under the leadership of the princess of Daxia County, why don't you quickly dismount and surrender under the siege of my army?"

The princess of Daxia County, the princess of Xingguo of Xixia He knew that some time ago, the housekeeper was talking about it, a princess was a prisoner, it is very rare, whether it is Dajin, the Great Song Dynasty or the previous dynasties, I have never heard of a princess as a prisoner. The cavalry regiment of the second division of the Wolf Tooth Army? Is this another Western Xia created such as the Capture Army and the Mountain Discussion Army? And what is the official position of the chief? * Confused, but apparently he doesn't have time to think about anything more, how to get out of the way.

(Author's note: In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a princess of the prison country, and there is a copper seal of the "princess of the prison country" unearthed in Wuchuan County as evidence.) In August 1227, Genghis Khan died. Genghis Khan chose his third son, Ögedei, as the heir to the throne, but due to the disagreement of the kings of the various tribes, it was August 1229 when Ögedei succeeded to the throne. During the two years that the Khanate was vacant, the Mongol Khanate was not in chaos because of the absence of a supreme leader. Legend has it that during the two years when the Mongol Khanate did not have a supreme leader, Genghis Khan's third daughter, the "Princess of the Prison State", Arakhai Beji, assumed the duties of regent and handled the country's military and political affairs. Legend has it that the Third Princess was a very beautiful and talented woman, and after the death of Genghis Khan and until Ogedei succeeded to the throne, Arakhai Beji managed the country with all her heart. All important decisions made by state officials, military and political affairs, must be carried out with the permission of the princess of the prison state. As the princess of the prison state, Alahai Beji managed the area north of the Yellow River, that is, the vast areas of present-day Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, and appointed officials in Hebei and Shanxi, and she became the "regent" at the same time. ）
