161, horseman

After crossing the Great Wall, Zhang Qi and the others left here under the watchful eyes of a group of Great Wall guards.

And the liquor they left behind was quickly divided by the border army, and the liquor was not suitable for those noble lords in the interior, because the taste was not good, but the hot stimulation and the feeling of being hot after entering the mouth were deeply loved by the border army in winter.

As far as Zhang Qi knows, these soldiers guarding the Great Wall can have 40 kilograms of rations a month, as well as a monthly salary of 123 to 200 yuan.

This is far beyond ordinary people, a soldier's monthly ration can almost feed two or three people, they do this knife licking blood work, the harvest is great, but the danger is also great.

Of course, rations and military salaries were stipulated by the Han Dynasty, and how much the sergeants and soldiers on each side could get depends on whether their leaders are good or not.

After Wangping, west to Liaoyang, Zhang Qi and they did not stop, he and Zhang became in-laws, although they are allies, but the news that should be passed on is also wanted.

The two military outposts turned south and rushed to Xiangping, they went to Zhang Yi to submit Zhang Qi's intentions, and received the letter, Zhang Yi naturally agreed, Zhang Qi and they came to solve the grassland thieves who occupied the king, and besides, their purpose was Liaoxi, but they borrowed the road from Liaodong.

After reading the letter, Zhang Yi returned his Taishou order and silk letter to You Sentinel: "This move is very good, if you are short of manpower, you can take the old man's order letter to borrow troops without worry." ”

"Thank you, Taishou." You Sentry saluted respectfully, and then left the Taishou Mansion, chasing Zhang Qi and the others non-stop.

The horses of the sentinels are all sixth-generation horses, and they have a considerable advantage in speed.

When Zhang Qi and the others arrived in Wushu County, the sentinels also arrived.

"Your Majesty, I have relayed the news to the Liaodong Taishou."

Zhang Qi stretched out his hand and took the things handed by You Sentinel, and smiled: "Okay, I know, fix it up and enter Liaoxi County." ”

After a slight trimming, Zhang Qi's thousand horsemen rushed again, and all the towns and villages he passed along the way recognized him.

"It's General Zhang! Look at their direction, this is going to Liaoxi County. ”

"What General Zhang?"

"You don't know?" Now Liaodong doesn't know that Zhang Qizhi is simply an outlier in the eyes of people.

All the people of Liaodong knew that the reason why Liaodong would be successful in this Xiongnu border under the impetus of the secret big hand depended on Zhang Qi's several victories.

"General Zhang, you don't even know, you are from other counties?"

"I told you, this general Zhang can be said to be the first general of the border county, the battle of fame defeated the enemy of more than 10,000 Huns in the field with 500 soldiers, and in the second battle, 10,000 horsemen rushed into battle with 100,000 Huns, and won a big victory! Now Liaodong can have such a peaceful life, but it all depends on General Zhang's divine might! ”

"yes."

"That's right!"

Whenever someone in the countryside talks about Zhang Qi and praises him, a group of yes parties will appear around him.

Meanwhile.

Liaoxi County.

Before Zhang Qi left Wuhuan, there was a sentinel who came in advance, and now Hu Shui already knew that he was also a smart person, and immediately moved troops to loot in the direction of Liaodong after the sentinel arrived.

Only this time, he was slow to raid and picked the place where the big clan was.

The career of Liaoxi in a year is not in vain, and he knows very well the distribution addresses of various major clans in Liaoxi County.

It burned and looted like this for a few days.

On this day, Hu Shui led the guerrilla army to loot as usual.

Just as his butcher's knife swung like a frightened countryman, a powerful arrow flew and slammed his blade.

Immediately, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and thousands of horses rolled up the clouds.

"Kill!"

The shouting and killing sound was deafening, making the villagers who were crying and screaming stunned on the spot.

But soon, the ecstasy on their faces could not be hidden, because they saw a banner, under the sun, with gold edges on a silver background, and the word 'Qi' was vigorous and powerful.

"It's General Zhang!!"

"General Zhang is here, we are saved!"

Some villagers didn't know about Zhang Qi, but that didn't prevent them from being encouraged, and hope for life appeared.

And Hu Shui covered his face to cover the corners of his mouth that almost laughed, and then shouted: "What General Zhang, General Li's, the Han army are all local chickens and dogs, cubs!"

Fight the enemy! ”

"Hah!"

The guerrilla army also shouted at the same time, and then the six thousand horsemen rushed in the direction of Zhang Qiqian's horse.

Zhang Qi waved a small flag, led a thousand cavalry eagles to attack the army and fought and retreated, and the two sides fought so well that the villagers here were dumbfounded.

When have they ever seen such a war, the Han army in the past relied on the city wall to fight, how can it be forbidden like General Zhang, and an army is like a person.

The battlefield is getting farther and farther away, until it disappears in the eyes of the villagers, among the villagers, more than a dozen people who have just shouted loudly quietly hide in the crowd, it is not difficult to see that they are the people who weave the net, as early as a few months ago, the weaving net has penetrated into western Liaoning, and the Koubian of the grassland has brought Zhang Qi a lot of identity and origin, so these people are migrants in the eyes of the local villagers.

Zhang Qi also had some prestige in western Liaoning, and the secret promotion of weaving a net made Zhang Qi's achievements in eastern Liaodong soon spread in western Liaoning.

However, Liaoxi was persecuted too badly by the grassland people in Koubian, so the effect was not as strong as that in Liaodong.

A dense forest.

The 6,000 Guerrilla Army was fighting with the Eagle Strike before, but if anyone was here, they would find that none of the two armies were using swords, and they were all engaged with their hands and feet.

And in the middle of these soldiers, Hu Shui knelt on one knee on the ground and saluted with his fists: "Hu Shui, the general of the game, has seen the king!" ”

Zhang Qi laughed: "Hahaha, you kid really has the material to be a robber, get up, you've worked hard for this time." ”

Hu Shui hammered his chest: "For the king, die a well-deserved death!" ”

He burst out laughing.

Soon, on the battlefield, although there were many people in the guerrilla army, except for the six hundred elites, the others were grassland people that Hu Shui gradually absorbed during the year.

Although they went through the same exercises, it was not a life-and-death struggle after all, and they gradually fell into disadvantage in front of the Eagle Strike Army, which was accustomed to fighting in formation.

This is not surprising, from the beginning of the establishment of the Guerrilla Army, they were an archer on horseback, and now bows and arrows are not allowed to be used, and their combat power is naturally sharply reduced.

Gradually, the shouts on the battlefield became quieter, and many new soldiers surrounded the city and watched their generals fighting with the generals of the Eagle Strike Army.

There was a lot of applause.

In the end, the Eagle Strike Army won the victory with a small result of 70 still standing in the circle, and this confrontation between Zhang Qi's own soldiers came to an end.

Assemble the army.

Zhang Qi promoted Hu Shui to a miscellaneous general and a cavalry general in front of all the soldiers.

He was the first of several generals under Zhang Qi's command to rise to this point.

The gaunting army shares honor and disgrace, which is the characteristic of the soldiers under Zhang Qi's command, and the concept of the army as a whole has been instilled from the place of training.

However, Zhang Qi has not forgotten them, what should be rewarded is still rewarded, but if you want to implement it, you have to wait until they return to Wuhuan.

After the whole army, Zhang Qi asked the Eagle Strike Army to tie the arms of the three thousand Youyi, and then Hu Shui fled in a hurry with the remaining three thousand, and the escape route was still Liaoxi.

Zhang Qi, the 'captive' with 3,000 bound hands, returned to the previous village, returned the looted wealth, and then, in the eyes of many admirers, he led these people to chase the fleeing Hu Shui.

The momentum of the chase and escape is not small, so much so that half of Liaoxi knows that the fierce bandit has now become a lost dog.

Zhang Qi's prestige in western Liaoning began to soar.

After coming out of the Great Wall of Liaoxi, Zhang Qiqian's cavalry was integrated into seven thousand cavalry, and he turned around under Yanshan and returned to Wuhuan.
