Chapter 277: Fire God
No one asks in the distance, and the bitter wind and rain are full of Xiaoxiang. The lonely city trees are desolate, and the cold mountains are thin and lonely.
A red sun slanted westward, elongating the reflection of the withered grass. A convoy transporting grain drove slowly on the official road from Jincheng County to Lingju County, and the so-called official road was just a little low in the barren grass. Perhaps it is the beauty of the heavens, this year's early spring is not as cold as before, giving a little more warmth to the people who are in a hurry.
This is the boundary of Jincheng County, which is supposed to be the hinterland of Liangzhou, and the current battlefield is mainly in Weiwu County and Zhangye County. The generals who could transport the grain were faintly uneasy in their hearts, and couldn't help urging the soldiers to speed up the march, wanting to rush to the foot of the cold mountain before it got dark, looking for a mountain col, so that they could camp and avoid the cold wind.
The uneasiness in the general's heart became more and more intense, and he couldn't help but look at the sunset in the west, a round of red sun had lost its luster and was slowly sinking into the earth. And a black line appeared next to the setting sun, and the general thought that he was dazzled, and rubbed his eyes desperately twice, and in this brief moment, the black line became much thicker.
Then there was a tremor of the earth, and the neighing of the horses and the rumbling of the horses' hooves instantly reached the ears of the grain carriers.
The general's face turned pale and he screamed.
"Enemy attack, formation"
But it was too late, the war horses came too suddenly, and the people barely surrounded the beam cart in a semicircle, and the Qiang people's scimitars had already cut the throats of the people. A puff of blood splashed the Qiang cavalry on the face, but the Qiang cavalry laughed and killed the Han soldiers who were scattered and fled.
From the beginning of the battle, it was a one-sided massacre, and the grain transporters did not survive half an hour until nightfall. There was only one corpse left on the messy official road. A group of wild wolves waited for the Qiang cavalry to go away, and then started the gluttonous feast of the wolves, and the soldiers who were lucky enough not to die became the delicacy of the wild wolves.
When the news reached the main general, Huangfu Song, it was already two days later. The veteran of this big man, glanced at the battle report, his body trembled slightly, and he almost fell. clenched his steel teeth, but the ruthlessness in his eyes could no longer be hidden.
"General, it's better for the last general to go and escort the grain and grass" Sun Jian stepped forward and knelt down and said.
Huangfu Song raised his left hand, interrupted Sun Jian, and instead said to the incoming soldiers.
"Inform the guards of Jincheng and expedite the allocation of some grain and grass"
The herald took the order and departed.
But two days later, he received the news that the grain and grass had been robbed again, and the entire camp was filled with a slaughter, and countless generals asked for orders to escort the grain and grass, but Huangfu Song was still unmoved, and continued to order Jincheng to allocate grain and grass.
And in the night, a cavalry took advantage of the night to go out of the camp, and the leading general, eight feet tall, carrying a two-edged long knife, followed by four tiger generals, all of them with tigers on their backs, and extremely brave, was the general Sun Jian and Sun Wentai.
Several times of looting grain and grass success, so that the Qiang people tasted the sweetness, not only can kill and injure the Han people, but also harvest a large amount of grain and grass, this is the Qiang people, it is not more cost-effective, slowly relaxed the vigilance, and was easily found by Sun Jian's scouts. Quietly followed behind this Qiang cavalry, waiting for the fatal blow.
Two days later, when a grain transport unit appeared on the grassland again, the Qiang cavalry was ready to rush and kill, and at noon, it turned to the cold mountain, looked for a mountain col, and began to set up camp.
This made the Qiang cavalry speechless for a while, how can you not play cards according to the routine, not to say that you continue to move forward, set up camp when it is almost dark, I will take the opportunity to cover up and kill, and then end successfully. But if they just go back like this, and they are ridiculed by the king, next time something so good happens, it will not be their tribe's turn.
Looking at the carts of grain and grass in the mountain col in the distance, the leader of the Qiang people gritted his teeth and beat the war horse hard, and suddenly more than 2,000 Qiang cavalry rushed out, and the Han people did not panic much when they saw the Qiang cavalry rushing over. Instead, he closed the gate of the camp and hid behind the antlers to release arrows, and there was a trench more than two meters wide in front of the antlers. The Qiang cavalry was unable to break through the camp for a while, but more than 100 cavalry fell to the ground in the middle.
When the Hun cavalry was still thinking about countermeasures, about 500 cavalry rushed over from behind. The leading general, carrying a steel spear and slender arms, stabbed the young general sent by the Qiang people to block him under his horse with only one face. Then the spears stabbed out one after another, stabbing the Qiang cavalry off their horses. The speed did not decrease, and it approached the leader of the Huns.
The leader's face changed greatly, and he turned his horse to go, and the two thousand Qiang cavalry were suddenly in chaos, and they scattered and fled, Han Dang led the troops to chase and kill for a while, and then led the cavalry into the camp, and the five hundred cavalry did not have a single casualty.
The Qiang cavalry gathered up their cavalry and galloped westward. Fade out of view.
"Big brother, why do you want to let go of these miscellaneous pieces and rush out together, so that none of them can escape" Huang Gai asked puzzledly, the brokeback golden ring knife in his hand was already hungry and thirsty.
"General Zuo has his own clever plan, I will wait to obey the order, and I will make you happy" Sun Jian didn't explain much, narrowed his eyes, stared at the west, and a touch of fierceness overflowed with words.
It was night, and the north wind rose. A half-moon hangs lonely in the sky, and the night is dim. A group of more than 10,000 Qiang people slowly moved towards the col at the foot of the cold mountain. The cavalry also dismounted, for fear of making a little noise.
But the black shadows still couldn't escape Sun Jian's eyes, and on the land to the west, a Han army of more than 10,000 people was lying in ambush among the dry grass. A member of Lao Jiang looked in the direction of Luoyang again, but it was thousands of miles away from Luoyang, and he couldn't see the city wall of Luoyang anyway.
Sun Jian quickly ordered, and more than 1,000 cavalry quickly dispersed from the north, and even faintly surrounded more than 10,000 Qiang soldiers, and then took out the fire-starting thing from his backpack and waited for the order of the main general.
As a rocket rose from the sky from the west, the cavalry quickly set fire to the dead grass beneath their feet, then moved quickly and set fire again. The night was lit up by the light of the fire, and then the north wind sent a wall of fire flying quickly southward.
And a tear slipped down Sun Jian's face silently. Say a word in your heart. Yigong goes all the way, if there is an afterlife, we will still be brothers. After speaking, he clenched the two-edged knife in his hand and turned over on his horse.
And in the west, the veteran Huang Fu Song, looking at the monstrous fire, slowly walked towards the center of the flames, several generals wanted to dissuade them, but Huang Fu Song raised his hand to stop them, and shouted.
"Give me an order today, don't let Qianghu go"
When he walked to the middle, he bit the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, dying the long sword blood-red and stabbing into the ground under his feet.
Stunt: Vulcan, the troops attacked by fire are bound to fall into chaos.
The only exclusive plan: fire poison, using its own blood as a medium, turns the flames within a radius of ten miles into poisonous fire, doubling the lethality.
