The place with the largest number of people in the Central Plains in the Western Regions is Gaochang, which is also the seat of the Wuji school captain.

In the second year of Shenjue (60 years ago), the Cheshi realm was officially incorporated into the territory of the Han Dynasty, and the Han divided the Cheshi into the former and later countries, and placed the captain of Wuji in charge of Tuntian, and then there was Gaochangbi.

Most of the people here are the descendants of the soldiers of the Han Army, in a sea of Hu people, firmly occupy this place, after hundreds of years of multiplication, hard work, Gaochang has become one of the richest lands in the Western Regions.

There is also a place where people from the Central Plains live, which is Haitou City in the south, which is in Shanshan Kingdom.

Gaochang City is a car division country, and Haitou City is a good country.

Therefore, this time, all the countries in the Western Regions rebelled, but only Cheshi and Shanshan stood "firmly" on the side of Daliang.

However, now outside the city of Gaochang, Hu cavalry is flying back and forth, shooting one or two arrows at the head of the city from time to time, and letting out an incomprehensible roar.

On the tower of the city, Murong Chui and Gao Bi, Zhao Qiu, Qi Mu Teng, Murong Nong and other generals looked at the enemy army at the head of the city.

There are only a few thousand horsemen to be seen, but I don't know how many ambushes are hidden behind the hills and valleys.

Every time he attacked, the black-pressed Hu cavalry was like a tide, surging from all directions, as if he would never be able to kill him.

Moreover, there are also elites among the Hu people, wearing chain mail, carrying spears, very good at riding and shooting, hiding among the armies, and suddenly killing in the chaos.

The real combat strength of the Liang army was only more than 7,700 Black Cloud Infantry Cavalry, and it engaged the Qiuzi Army several times, and the Black Cloud Army suffered more than two or three hundred casualties.

Tuguhun was unbearable and hard-fighting, and the armies of the former country and Shanshan were disheartened, and Murong Chui chose to temporarily retreat to Gaochang.

"Liangzhou has always been chaotic, all from the Western Regions, the Western Regions have been separated from China for nearly a hundred years, and they have been reduced to Yidi, and they can't be merciful, where are Murong Nong and Qi Mu Teng?"

The Hu cavalry under the city became more and more rampant, laughing, scolding, laughing, pointing, and some people even unbuttoned their crotches and released water at the city.

Murong Chui has been out for so many years, and he has never seen such arrogant and rude people, and if they are allowed to be arrogant, it will hit the morale of the defenders.

"The last general!" Murong Nong and Qi Mu Teng came out.

"Lead three thousand horsemen to drive away the enemy."

"Command." The two of them went down to the city with great dignity.

As soon as the three thousand elite horsemen left the city, the Hu cavalry turned around and ran, and the two armies immediately fired at each other.

The Liang army was well-armed, but Hu Qi was equipped with a round shield, and for a while, both sides could not help each other.

After chasing for a while, the two were afraid of an ambush, so they retreated.

However, this group of Hu rode back and forth, and shouted and cursed under the city.

Murong Chui took out a strong bow and aimed it at a general one hundred and thirty steps away.

At such a long distance, affected by the wind speed, it is difficult to hit, and even if the head is accurate, the arrow loses its strength.

General Hu also seemed to see someone at the head of the city bending his bow and arrows, not only did he not retreat, but he also arrogantly drove his horse forward a few steps, opened his arms and laughed wantonly.

With a "boom", the bowstring in Murong Chui's hand sounded, and the feather arrow was as fast as lightning, cutting an arc in the air, and the castration was far stronger than ordinary arrows, and it accurately penetrated into the mouth of the Hu general.

The laughter and scolding stopped abruptly, and Hu Jiang tilted his body and fell down from his war horse, one foot still hanging on the stirrup, and was dragged away by the frightened war horse.

The other Hu people were shocked and retreated.

"General's Arrow!" The crowd cheered in unison.

"It's a pity that there are no heavy crossbows in Gaochang City, otherwise how can they be allowed to be so rampant?" Gao Bi smiled.

Murong Chui handed over the strong bow to the guards, often hanging high in the summer, this season, the people in the Western Regions are unbearable during the day, and at night, the people who are freezing can't stand it.

"Why do you need a heavy crossbow? Hu people's chain mail can block swords and slashes, but can't block spear stabs, and it is easy to break! Murong Chui asked people to take a piece of seized chain mail and handed it to everyone to see.

Chain mail is made of iron wire or iron ring buckles, each ring and the other four rings are fastened, like a net lock.

It has some protection against bows and swords, but it can't block the impact of cavalry lances.

During the Cao Wei period, some countries in the Western Regions paid tribute to this thing, and it was later rewarded to Cao Zhi by Emperor Wu of Wei along with the black light armor and the bright light armor.

Cao Zhi also deliberately made a "Table of Armor from the First Emperor to Bestow Ministers" to record this matter.

Since the Central Plains Dynasty did not use it, it means that the protective power of chain mail is not as good as the traditional armor of the Central Plains, otherwise with the manufacturing capacity of the Central Plains, it would have been equipped on a large scale long ago.

Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.

Murong Trai has been watching the opponent, waiting for an opportunity, and now the enemy army has almost mastered the reality.

"The Hu people don't know the art of war, they have already won the plan of my proud soldiers, and I know everything about the reality of it, and I give the order, and the soldiers will immediately eat half full, prepare a water bladder for three days, and attack after an hour!" Murong was excited.

Not only was it a ploy of the soldiers, but the Hu army was also lured to Gaochang.

The big battle is fought in Qiuzi, and the effect is of course different from that fought under Gaochang City.

The yellow sand in the Western Regions is long, Murong Chui is not familiar with the place for the first time, so he is naturally cautious, and now he still knows the path of the enemy army, which is essentially no different from the grassland tribes, and he is better equipped and braver.

But in these days, in any army, bravery is only the basic requirement.

"Sortie?" Gao Bi was taken aback.

It's not that the Liang army can't win against them, but there are too many Hu people, most of them are cavalry, and they come and go like the wind.

It is not like the Central Plains War, and there is no camp.

"Today's scouts came to report that His Majesty's 30,000 elite horsemen have passed the pass, entered Longshang, and are about to arrive in Liangzhou, and they will be able to reach Gaochang in ten days and a half months." General Zhao Qiu arched his hand.

"Your Majesty ordered me to supervise all the military forces on the right side, envoy the festival, and march into the Western Regions, now that the enemy army is close at hand, how can I miss the opportunity?" Murong Chui is like a skilled hunter, knowing when to attack, and the prey has the lowest vigilance.

The timing and psychology are just right, and even the sun exposure is taken into account.

After an hour, the sun would be less intense, and the Hu ambush soldiers wore armor and were exposed to the sun for at least two hours.

A gust of turbulent wind blew, lifting Murong Chui's cloak, and the majestic aura was overflowing.

All the generals were infected by this momentum, "I am willing to break the enemy with the general!" ”

Even Gao Bi, who has always been weak, wears armor and holds a sword.

Murong Chui laughed: "With this merit of pacifying the Western Regions, you can all soar!" ”

The more than 7,000 Black Cloud troops in the city suddenly became busy, eating, preparing drinking water and dry food, inspecting weapons, and feeding the war horses...... Be in apple-pie order.

They deduced from Murong Trai's tone that it was a big battle.

The other Tuyuhun, Cheshi and other armies were extremely surprised, and after the surprise, they were afraid of war.

The servant army can only follow and fight with the wind, and it is basically impossible for them to kill them.

However, Murong Chui didn't want to bring them in the first place.

An hour later, 7,723 Black Cloud soldiers rode on their horses, holding long lances, all of them had two horses, and behind them there was a team of 5,000 camels prepared by Gao Chang Taishou Jia Jun.

Murong Chui was dressed in bright light armor, riding a fiery red war horse, carrying a long lance, and went out of the city with the soldiers.
