Chapter 213: The Rebels Withdraw
Liangzhou is not as good as the Central Plains, to be honest, it can no longer be regarded as the main battlefield of the Han official army.
The local heroes here are also constantly changing ups and downs, and there are many foreign races, and there is a lack of containment, and there are repeated times. The Han army needed to suppress the rebellion here step by step, and it was difficult to invade and attack.
If the local forces here are divided and combined, and if they do not suppress and deter, no one dares to guarantee when the local forces will fall.
The Han put a lot of effort into the integration of the Liangzhou people, knowing that as long as they showed obedience, the Han army would not massacre here.
Carrying knives and guns, taking up horses, dropping the tents, and releasing cattle and sheep are herdsmen.
Liu Cang's surprise attack disrupted the confrontation between the rebels and the official army, but when the rebel cavalry scattered, Zhang Wen was cautious and sent a fast horse again to inform Liu Cang that he could not pursue the enemy deeply.
Liu Cang's command scattered and swept the enemy camp, Dong Zhuo led the troops to attack, and 30,000 foot soldiers went out of the city to join the encirclement and suppression.
Zhang Wen's troops were also dispatched quickly, and the rebels fled in countless numbers, but there were also some rebels without mounts who were defending the battalions.
When Dong Zhuo arrived at the place where the rebel company was camped, he looked closely at Liu Cang's subordinates, who were still running to kill the enemy camp, his brows were furrowed, and his heart was shocked.
"Hua Xiong, what do you think of Liu Cang's soldiers?" With the four people around him, Dong Zhuo asked Hua Xiong.
"Isn't this the Yulin Ride in the Middle Kingdom?" Hua Xiong's expression was solemn, his face was serious, but his heart was secretly tongued.
The cavalry rushed to kill bravely, those cavalry relied on the advantage of the armor, in the face of the light armor Hu Qiang, there were few enemies under them, and they couldn't see the specifics.
But those heavy armored infantry are a little scary, heavy armor and heavy soldiers, who have been running for miles, are still dancing wildly at this time, killing people when they encounter people, and cracking horses when they encounter horses.
The serious heavy infantry of the Northern Army was already showing weakness, and this group of unserious flying bears were still screaming and killing.
"The Great Han Yulin has been in decline for a long time, and some of the old men in the cavalry still have the impression that this battalion has been formed for less than a year, is this the king of the Han family?" Dong Zhuo was inexplicable and muttered softly.
"My lord's words are serious, it's not like I haven't seen the vassal kings, there are many people who are busy, and this hereditary prince of Dongping is also special, I'm afraid it's just a special case." Li Ru felt that Dong Zhuo's mind was in a trance, and he couldn't help but comfort him.
"However, in addition to the ability of the beast, Liu Cang's ability to train troops should not be underestimated, and only 100 members of the Flying Bear Army were selected among our 10,000 people, which is much worse than this Flying Bear Battalion. I'm afraid this flying bear name will not be used." Niu Fu shook his head, Li Ru opened his mouth, but he didn't refute after hesitating.
"Boom! Boom!" Hundreds of horsemen stepped out of the earth-shaking momentum, and the main thing was that the rhinoceros in front of the team was unusually strong.
The firelight everywhere illuminated the night like dusk, and at this time, Liu Cang led the team to run in front of Dong Zhuo and his party.
"General Liu made an extraordinary move, forcing the rebels back in World War I, Dong admired." Liu Cang raised his hand to signal the horse team to move slowly, and Dong Zhuo shouted loudly nearby.
"Haha, there is a shortage of major generals under a certain command, so you can only use some tricks that are not on the table, General Dong should not laugh at it." Blood stained the stomach of the red armor, the face buckled the unicorn face armor, and when Liu Cang laughed, his voice was heavy and sonorous because of the mask.
Liu Cang and his entourage, all wearing face armor, can be said to be armed to the teeth, I saw Liu Cang wave his hand, and the accompanying beast-faced soldiers pounced on a military camp again, Liu Cang sat down and the rhinoceros was panting, close to Dong Zhuo and others.
"General Liu, don't laugh at Dong anymore, when Dong can't help himself, he can't compare to the general's courage and freedom." Dong Zhuo smiled bitterly, as if he had said goodbye, and hugged his fist at Liu Cangyuan.
"Oh? Haha, since General Dong is bold, it's not good to mention trivial matters again, you and I are both involuntary people, blaming each other, but it's boring." Dong Zhuo's reaction surprised Liu Cang, took off the heavy face armor, and Liu Cang smiled.
At this time, Dong Zhuo's face also flashed with a look of surprise, Liu Cang approached, Niu Fu and Li Ru beside Dong Zhuo silently retreated, Hua Xiong raised a knife and immediately Dong Zhuo's side, seeing Liu Cang's eyes swept by, his heart was inexplicably tight, and he lowered his eyes and did not look at Liu Cang.
Liu Cang sat down, the rhinoceros was tall and stout, standing side by side with Dong Zhuo in the middle of the battlefield, but Dong Zhuo was a little thin on the Dawan Jian horse.
Dong Zhuo's war horse did not show hostility towards the rhinoceros, originally Dong Zhuo was worried about the rhinoceros outburst, but saw that the horns had been stained with blood
The crimson rhinoceros hung its head under Liu Cang's pat, and only then did it relax a little.
The Han people are no strangers to rhinoceros, this thing is moody, and it is difficult to observe emotions, and it is fine on weekdays, but it basically cannot be tamed into a war horse in the army.
However, after seeing Liu Cang's training of the eagle that threw fire oil, everyone didn't seem to be so surprised that Liu Cang rode the rhinoceros.
"Dong is very fortunate to have General Liu's understanding. General Liu had a hard time fighting this battle, so it was better to return to the city to rest for the time being. This battlefield is cleared, and Dong will make proper arrangements for General Liu."
Dong Zhuo was glad that Liu Cang did not continue to squeeze him verbally, and seeing that the battlefield shouting and killing gradually subsided, he said to Liu Cang considerately.
"It doesn't matter if the battlefield is cleared, General Dong, this rebel army really can't be pursued?" Liu Cang shook his head, his tone was calm, and he asked as if he were asking.
"Alas~ Yes, the rebels in Liangzhou turned into herdsmen with knives and guns, and this place has not entered the desert, and there are many hiding places in the mountains and wilderness, and it is dangerous to chase them."
"This battle may be able to stabilize Hanxing and Xinping, but General Bao Hong needs to pacify the villages and counties in the two places to avoid further troubles." Dong Zhuo sighed and explained.
"Appeased? Suppressing deterrence is not feasible?" Liu Cang frowned, disgusted with trouble in his heart.
"It's not impossible, the people of Liangzhou advocate force, but now the rebels are strong, and forcibly suppressing them is easy to cause a backlash."
"Liangzhou is vast, and our army is temporarily short of mobility, so it is difficult to take care of everything. In fact, if the cavalry is in place, it can save a lot of trouble, but.
。」 Dong Zhuo hesitated and looked at Liu Cang for a moment.
"Still.
。 Alas~, Haoxuan is in front of him, and Dong doesn't say secret words."
"It is really difficult for Dong to dispatch cavalry independently, if Bao Hong can raise enough baggage, Dong will not be able to shirk it again." Dong Zhuo lowered his voice, and his address to Liu Cang was a little closer than before.
"Do you have to raise your weight locally? There must always be fodder in these rebel camps, right?" Liu Cang asked.
"Hehe, I'm afraid there are few people nearby to support the rebels, the rebels have little forage, and there are slaves to herd horses on weekdays. Even if some can be collected, and there is no stable food supply, it will be urgent at most."
"Now Captain Si Li is Yuan Shao, he doesn't dare to lack military rations to transport, but forage, no one can say that he is not."
"General Huangfu of the Northland has only been frustrated here, and General Huangfu also has to prepare troops on his side, Haoxuan doesn't look at Dong, Dong's family background is shallow, and he can't do these two unflattering things." Dong Zhuo shook his head, and Liu Cang was stunned.
Obviously, Liu Cang questioned him for not seeking help from Xiliang, and Dong Zhuo was also frank.
"Tsk, it's a mistake to think about it, but if it's so-and-so, so-and-so probably won't do this kind of thing." Liu Cang's tongue was stunned, but his words made Dong Zhuo's eyes light up.
"Haha, Haoxuan is really a sincere person, Dong was more cautious earlier, but let Haoxuan laugh, today.
。 Carried on? Is that.
。?」 Dong Zhuo laughed and was about to agree with Liu Cang, but there was a strange scene in front of him.
Chicken?
That's right, a big rooster with brocade feathers.
I saw a sturdy rooster pacing in the middle of the firelight battlefield, followed by a flock of thirty or forty chickens, two quite large mastiffs followed by the rooster, and the mastiff dog was also followed by a dozen hunting dogs, as if guarding the chickens.
"Wang~!" The mastiff wagged its tail and barked at Liu Cang, and the big rooster flashed its wings, as if it wanted to run towards Liu Cang, and then a group of slave soldiers were catching up.
I saw Liu Cang pointing to a camp in the distance that had just been swept by the Flying Bear Camp and waving. , more than a dozen slave soldiers caught up with the chicken dog, and the group ran in the direction pointed by Liu Cang.
Dong Zhuo was stunned, Hua Xiong's eyes were staring at the boss, and Li Ru and Niu Fu were also confused. And Liu Cang is more worried about this chaos, and the fighting chicken is not being trampled on.
A tall and strong head horse leads a large group of war horses, and the neighing wind with a shoulder height of nearly two meters is really strong now, and it is precisely because of its large and sturdy size that it is easy to think of it as a ploughing horse that is not good at running.
A lion with a small white tiger on his back follows the side of the horses, and the accompanying slaves do not even need to escort the prisoners of war, but the prisoners of war in the besieged horses will be kicked by the horses
Kick and bite.
The heavy-armored bear with the harazi accompanied the flock, a Menghu followed hundreds of cattle, and a huge wild boar-shaped figure with a fear of five or six hundred catties snorted and ran to Liu Cang's side to tease the rhinoceros.
Liu Cang's slave soldiers followed herds of animals around the camps, and when the officers and soldiers avoided them, they dragged cartloads of dried meat away.
These things, it seems to be the rebels' baggage? And they also dragged away a lot of cattle and horse corpses.
Dong Zhuo and his entourage looked at Liu Cang in surprise, have these animals become sperm? What's the matter? In other words, you're a bit unparticular about cleaning the battlefield like this, right?
