Southwest Wind and Cloud Seventy-Eight is beginning to show its edge
Yi Tianhang saw that the light cavalry under the command of Captain Dong was delayed, and he knew that the captain was deliberately stumbling on him, thinking that this battle with the thieves was small, if the food and grass were exhausted after two days, and the backup had not arrived, these hundreds of people were afraid that they would have to explain in this wilderness, so they convened ten commanders to discuss and listen to everyone's opinions, whether to camp in place and wait for the army, or to advance lightly and desperately to find the thieves to fight with them.
Those tun commanders have suffered for a long time, and there are seven or eight people to support the latter, no way, since Yi Tianhang's words have been spoken, and he can't wait for reinforcements, he has to take a risk, there is no exciting pre-battle encouragement, Yi Tianhang only said one sentence to the five hundred soldiers, "You wait for your life to be entrusted to me, and I will also entrust this honor and disgrace to the brothers." After saying that, he ordered to travel lightly, and strive to find the enemy within two days.
Yi Tianhang led the crowd to search for the thieves, and more and more horses were sent out, and the reports came back more and more frequently.
After two days of rapid marching, in the evening, the rations were exhausted, but the soldiers under his command were not exhausted and demoralized by the two-day march, but were in high spirits. Just after the return of the horse, five miles ahead, hundreds of thieves are hiding in the forest, burying pots to make food, this is a good time to launch a surprise attack, and all the commanders are asking for battle.
Yi Tianhang took advantage of the darkness to lead the army to sneak, only more than 100 steps away from the thieves, the scouts have solved all the sentry outside the camp of the thieves, it is indeed a barbarian army in disguise, all the barbarians are gathering together to eat at 351, at this moment, just wait for Yi Tianhang to launch a surprise attack under an order, and the enemy is caught off guard.
The first five tuns are sword and shield soldiers, six or seven tuns are spearmen, eight or nine tuns are archers, and the tenth tun is crossbowmen. According to the deployment of Yitianhang, 128 Tun went to the left side of the barbarian camp to stand by, 349 Tun went to the right side of the camp to ambush, and the rest of the men and horses followed Yi Tianhang to advance with the front noise to attract thieves, with the drum as the signal, three sides of the attack, the arrangement has been decided, and each tun acts according to the order.
"All the generals listen to the order, the infantry is in front, the crossbowmen are behind, the infantry pay attention to the spacing, leave a shooting space for the crossbowmen behind them, keep the formation, don't rush forward, attack!"
Yi Tianhang had already dismounted, pulled out the sword behind his back and rushed forward, and the soldiers behind him shouted together.
The barbarians in the forest were eating, they were so frightened that they were at a loss, the pots and pans fell to the ground, and the barbarians came back to their senses and wanted to get up to resist the enemy.
The sound of the fight began, the barbarians in the forest were all attracted by Yitianhang, a simple camp tent in the center of the camp came out of a barbarian general, has begun to shout loudly, purge the team, hundreds of barbarians gathered, and then went to Yitianhang to kill.
Seeing that the temptation of the enemy had been completed, Yi Tianhang stood at the forefront of the military formation and shouted loudly: "The sword and shield soldiers maintain the formation and the spearmen are lined up to prevent the enemy from rushing into formation, and the crossbowmen retreat and prepare to engage!" ”
I saw that the barbarian general commanded hundreds of barbarian soldiers to kill, and in a blink of an eye, he was close to the front, and Yi Tianhang casually picked up a barbarian shield to protect his chest, but he was swept into the sea of people by the barbarian soldiers who rushed into the battle, and there were many soldiers around him who were knocked down.
Yi Tianhang indiscriminately waved his knife and cut down a few barbarians, this battle array, how can there be any moves to talk about, only the simplest slashing, stabbing, dodging, all the soldiers saw that Yi Tianhang did not retreat, morale was greatly boosted, they all moved forward bravely, and actually stabilized their positions.
Seeing that he could not break through the defense line of Yitianhang, the barbarian general personally led people to break through the formation, and hundreds of people pressed over, and Yitianhang saw that the layout had been completed, and shouted: "Beat the drum!" ”
I only heard the sound of cowhide drums loud, stirring people's hearts, and heard the soldiers behind me shouting "kill, kill, kill", and the two ambushed men and horses jumped up from the forest almost at the same time, shouting and copying the back road of the barbarians, and surrounded the hundreds of barbarians.
The archers were in front, the infantry was behind, and after a volley, the ambushes on both sides brandished their swords and launched a charge, and the brutes were attacked on their backs, and they suffered countless casualties on the ground, and this blow alone broke the fighting spirit of the barbarian army.
The barbarian army that was surrounded and attacked was like a trapped beast in a cage, let Yitianhang slaughter, the barbarian general saw the constant turmoil behind him, I don't know how many men and horses came from the Qi army, he was already panicked, and the barbarian soldiers were also in chaos.
Yi Tianhang and the barbarian generals saw each other in this chaotic army, and the two of them almost simultaneously had the idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first.
The two of them were not far apart, and each waved his weapon and exchanged hands.
"Enemy generals are all names!" The barbarian shouted.
Yi Tianhang snorted coldly and did not answer, raised his knife and slashed at the chest of the barbarian, the barbarian general relied on his own courage and waved his knife to greet him, but how could he think that this little Qu Du in front of him was holding a divine weapon in his hand.
The brute knife broke, the deceptive frost treasure knife fell on the shoulders of the brute general, Yi Tianhang effortlessly captured the brute general, the surrounding barbarian soldiers saw that the master was captured, many kneeling surrendered, the sound of fighting gradually weakened, and the dozens of barbarians who were still resisting were also terrified.
"Keep your mouth alive!" Yi Tianhang saw that his soldiers had slaughtered the surrendered barbarians for the sake of military merits, and hurriedly stopped.
Yi Tianhang was going to capture the prisoners, and it was suspicious that this group of barbarians had entered the territory of Zizhong.
Counting the dead and wounded, taking prisoners, and looting camps were the things that had to be done after the war.
In this battle, more than 30 people were killed, more than 10 people were seriously wounded, and more than 50 people were lightly wounded, and the losses were not small, but the barbarian generals were captured alive, and more than 50 barbarian soldiers were captured, and more than 400 enemies were killed, which was not a small feat.
Huang Tun led people to search the barbarian camp, but he got a lot of rations, and he was carefree for a while.
Yi Tianhang sent fast horses to report to Captain Dong and Mu Ziyu respectively, and this battle was a big victory, and all the soldiers added a little good impression to Yi Tianhang, and they all thought: "Although this Yiqu Governor has a sad face all day long, and the weekday drills are too strict, but leading the troops to fight is quite disciplined, and he is the first soldier, and the diet and daily life are no different from the soldiers, thinking about it, it is not bad." Assaulting subordinates and extorting money? It seems that Huang Tun Chang picked it up first. ”
Huang Tunchang and others were also a little convinced, this is also Qu Du's martial arts are strong, although he is a little unkind, but he took great care of the brothers in the battle array, and saved the soldiers around him from danger several times.
"All the officers and soldiers listened to the order, rested in place, and each tun was on duty in shifts, and tomorrow at dawn, the whole army will return."
Yi Tianhang saw that the overall situation had been decided, so he planned to torture the prisoners, and before that, he had to arrange the defense, after all, he was alone, and he should not be taken lightly.
Outside the dilapidated camp tent of the barbarian army, Yi Tianhang sat upright, with several tun commanders standing on both sides, and more than a dozen soldiers guarding the periphery, and the barbarian generals and a group of prisoners were tied up and kneeling on the ground.
Yi Tianhang asked: "Are there any soldiers in my department who understand barbarian language?" ”
"Hui Qudu, we all know a little."
Yitianhang followed the prestige, it is a tun tun long yellow hair, this yellow hair is only thirty-five or sixteen years old, slightly thin and short, goatee, a pair of eyes are shrewd, mixed in the military camp for 20 years, Ren Tun Chang has also been for ten years, just because of his usual martial arts, and do not know how to march and fight, there is no hope of promotion in this life, only looking forward to saving more military merits, mixed with a military marquis to return home.
According to the previous Zhou system, the soldiers can be promoted to the military marquis by virtue of their military exploits, and the military marquis is divided into ten levels, if the military marquis is unloaded and returned to the field, the worst can also get an errand for the government to arrest the officials, if the ten-level military marquis returns to the hometown, only need to go to the government to receive the monthly money, and the second half of his life is worry-free.
Yi Tianhang saw Huang Facai's eager eyes, so he said, "Okay, let me ask, you say a word to these captives." ”
"Yes, the subordinates have orders."
Yi Tianhang asked these captives: "I am Yi Tianhang, the commander of the Great Qi Protector Shu Army, how did you cross my border defense?" What are the intentions of penetrating into the territory of my Great Qi? ”
After asking this, but there was no answer, Huang Fa repeated it several times, but the brute soldiers bowed their heads and remained silent.
Yi Tianhang's face was as usual, he got up and walked quickly to the front of a barbarian, and everyone didn't know what this Yiqu Governor wanted.
Huang Fa was about to ask, but the knife flashed, and Yi Tianhang cut off the brute's right ear with a knife, and the action was so swift that no one present reacted, and the brute was stunned for a moment, before he snorted in pain, gritted his teeth and endured it.
Yi Tianhang motioned to Huang Fa to continue asking, but still no one answered, another knife, another person's right ear, the painful brute grinned, and cut off the right ear of more than a dozen people in a row.
The commanders standing on both sides couldn't stand it anymore, it was understandable to fight on the battlefield and take people's lives, but it was the first time for the Shu army to torture the prisoners like this.
Yi Tianhang returned to the original place with the knife, and said to the barbarian general, but it was a barbarian language: "The one kneeling under the tent, the patience of this governor is limited, and if he doesn't answer, the next knife will cut off his hands and feet." ”
As soon as this remark came out, Huang Facai and others were shocked, and those who knew how to speak in this army were just because they had been stationed on the frontier all the year round and had learned a little, but it was very rare for Yi Tianhang to speak so fluently.
When the barbarian general heard Yi Tianhang's question, he raised his head and said, "If you want to kill, you will kill, why humiliate the warriors of my tribe." ”
"Warriors? What is the talk of defeating the soldiers/bravery? Who is the general of the defeated army? As soon as the words fell, I saw Yi Tianhang striding forward, cutting off the right arm of a barbarian soldier on the side of the barbarian general, and the blood poured out, and the blood sprayed the barbarian general's face, and the barbarian soldier screamed and fainted.
Yi Tianhang returned to the barbarian general and said loudly: "These people kneeling behind you, when they are not fighting, they are just honest farmers and craftsmen in the tribe, they are the filial sons of the old mother!" He is the husband who stands up to the sky in the eyes of his wife! He is the father whom his children adore! Are you just going to watch them turn into cripples or even die?! As long as you tell us all you know, this governor will protect your lives! ”
As soon as these words came out, and then looked at the right ear and a broken arm on the ground, the kneeling brute soldiers began to waver.
Who has no parents, who has no wives and children?! Fighting on the battlefield, blood and qi surging, parents, wives and children are all forgotten, but now they are prisoners, and their hometown relatives are the most remembered in their hearts! Go to his tribe, go to his warrior glory! Lives are gone, everything will be gone, the cave owners will not help the dead to take care of the family, the elderly parents will live in embarrassment, and the wives and children will be bullied.
