Chapter 218 What does Ma Yue want to do?(2/3)
Behind each Qiang soldier prisoner, two fierce Bingzhou elite soldiers stood. These Bingzhou elite soldiers were also wearing cloth armor representing the identity of county and state soldiers, holding several sharp wolf-toothed feather arrows in their hands, and each of them showed a wolf-like hideous look in their eyes. For these veterans who have experienced many battles and killing people, killing someone is no different from stepping on an ant.
"puff."
With a muffled sound, the personal soldiers in charge of looking out jumped off the high ox cart and said to Xu Huang: "General, here we are here!"
"Huh?" Xu Huang turned his head suddenly, put on a tent and looked north, asking, "Is the lord's army only coming, or are even the Hu people from the Western Regions coming?"
Xiaozhao said: "All have come, the Hu people in the Western Regions are chasing their lord's army."
At this time, Xu Huang and the generals around him had already seen smoke and dust rising on the northern horizon. In a vague manner, two armies were chasing each other and killing them.
It’s almost time to send these fish to the road!
A heart-pounding cold flame suddenly appeared in Xu Huang's eyes, and a cold sentence broke out from his teeth: "Rolling the flag, do it!"
A personal soldier quickly raised the flag that had been lying on the ground. When the Wuhuan wolf cavalry was galloping back and forth outside the defense circle saw the flag erected, they immediately returned to their bows and sheaths. They all took out their scimitars and rushed towards the ox cart formation in the middle circle. In a flash, there were tragic sounds of killing sounds, and there were endless sounds of weapons hitting each other.
Of course, there are more endless screams.
When Xu Huang's raised right arm fell coldly, the Bingzhou veterans in the ox cart formation did not hesitate to stab the wolf-toothed arrows in their hands into the Qiang soldiers who were kneeling on the ground, tied their hands, and had no power to resist! The killing, the suffocating killing, within a short time, hundreds of poor Qiang soldiers and prisoners were all in a pool of blood.
No prisoner survived. They were either pierced through the throat or the chest and abdomen. Many people had at least three arrows inserted into them. Even bloodthirsty Bingzhou soldiers cruelly stabbed sharp arrows through the eyes of Qiang soldiers' captives. The sharp arrows were slaying through the entire cranial cavity and then protruded from the back of the head.
Most of the prisoners did not die immediately, and they all fell in pools of blood and wailed and struggled. But in the end, no one among them would survive! Because they unfortunately became bargaining chips in Jia Dushi's poison plan. Jia Dushi always regarded human lives as mustard, and did not know what kind of pity was, and even more rude than horse butchers. How could he pity the lives of these hundreds of Qiang soldiers and prisoners of war?
Outside the defense circle, thousands of Wuhuan wolf cavalry were wielding their swords to chop on the ox cart, while the Bingzhou soldiers in the ox cart formation were as if they were wood, staring at the Wuhuan wolf cavalry performing in a daze. From time to time, there would be unswallowed Qiang soldiers and captives being thrown out of the ox cart formation. The Wuhuan wolf cavalry, who were chopping up, would immediately surround them like wild wolfs smelling the smell of blood, flew around randomly, and instantly cut the poor Qiang soldiers into pieces.
This scene was not declared over until the Hu cavalry in the Western Regions "repelled" the horse butcher cavalry and arrived.
Ju suddenly whistled, and the three thousand wolf cavalry immediately fled far away. In less than a moment, they disappeared from the Bingzhou soldiers' vision without a trace. Xu Huang reached out and wiped blood on the body of a captive Qiang soldier and painted it on his face, then changed his expression of lingering fear, and hurried to the ox cart formation.
When Wang Yuan and Musa Khan arrived, they were showing a tragic scene like Shura Blood Prison. Many soldiers had been cut to the ground and their intestines were scattered all over the ground. The ox carts surrounded by corpses were lying everywhere. What took their lives was the hideous wolf-toothed arrow.
Many corpses had knife marks on their bodies, and they were still bleeding from blood, thinking that they would die soon after.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the middle-aged man wanted to vomit. Many Hu people in their Western Regions had never seen such a bloody and terrifying scene in their lives. They were so scared that their eyes were straight and their bodies were trembling.
Seeing such a tragic scene, the last doubts in Wang Yuan's heart disappeared.
A blood-stained school student leaned his head from behind the ox cart and straightened his back, shouting sternly: "Who are you?"
Wang Yuan stepped forward and shouted: "Don't be afraid. I am the chief of the Chief of the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty, Wang Yuan, and he is not a rebel Ma Yue."
The school was overjoyed and said, "Mr. Wang? Are you really Mr. Wang!"
"That's right." Wang Yuan said, "Who are you?"
The little school said: "The villain Fang Xu is the little school in front of the Yan Duwei's tent in Jincheng."
The prefect of Jincheng, Yan Wen, the commander Yan Hong, and Wang Yuan, all knew each other, and asked at that time: "Where is General Yan Hong?"
The junior school's expression turned absent, pointed to a bloody corpse beside him, and said sadly: "The general has died in battle."
"Oh~~" Wang Yuan sighed, his tone slowed down, and he said in a harmonious voice, "Okay, the rebels of the Ma Butcher's rebels have been repelled, and now they are fine."
Luoyang.
The eighteen princes quarreled in front of the emperor, the queen mother and the civil and military officials of the court for a long time, but they still couldn't make a result. Seeing that the time was right, Wang Yun slowly coughed and left the shift. After the eighteen princes silenced, he continued, "I have a compromise proposal. Do you guys want to hear it?"
The princes of all walks of life were quarreled for a long time but could not reach an agreement. They were about to find someone to judge, but they said in unison: "Please speak."
Wang Yun said: "The four great masters Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Han Fu and Tao Qian are either respected, have good governance, are also amazing, have peerless talents, come from famous families, and have outstanding military achievements. Dong Zhuo, who have even made great contributions to the imperial court. If they only have one general, they may be difficult to convince the public."
Yuan Shao and others said, "What are your opinions on Lord Situ?"
Wang Yun said: "How about the four great masters who are the generals together?"
"What?" Yuan Shao said in surprise, "As both generals, how can this be done?"
"What can I do?" Wang Yun said calmly, "Mr. Yuan Shao can be the general of the East, Mr. Han Fu can be the general of the North, Mr. Tao Qian can be the general of the South, Mr. Yuan Shu can be the general of the West, and the four generals are all granted the title of Marquis, and they are appointed as the general of the East, and they are appointed as the marquis, and they are used as the court to guard the four directions. Is it okay?"
“This ~~”
Yuan Shao stroked his chin and his short beards, and he was speechless for a moment.
If you only want to be appointed as the General of the Conquest East, Yuan Shao would inevitably be unwilling to accept it, but now the eighteen princes of the 18th line of vassals are dissatisfied with each other and attack each other, which has become a difficult situation for the imperial court to give such rewards. After all, the General of the Conquest East is ranked among the third duke and is already considered a high-ranking minister.
After arguing for a long time, the other princes were already a little impatient. If the general was not granted, the officials who were down could not be granted. The princes who were worried about what general they could have agreed to and agreed to, and they all agreed to, "Okay, Lord Situ is right, let's do it like this."
After the four most difficult generals were granted, the next princes would be easier. In less than half an hour, the princes reached an agreement. Gongsun Zan conferred a general in Pingbei, and then a general in Pingxi for Ma Yue, Sun Jian conferred a former general, Yuan Shao conferred a left general for Cao Cao, and the other princes were also ranked as generals.
After the titles of various princes were sealed, there was nothing to say about who would station in Luoyang next. Even Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Han Fu, and Tao Qian, the four powerful warlords, could not stay in Luoyang, but could only guard one side for the court. How could they let other warlords whose strength was inferior to theirs stay in Luoyang?
In the end, Wang Yun proposed to grant Liu Bei the title of Sili's lieutenant and guard Luoyang.
Liu Bei had only a few hundred soldiers and only two generals, which poses no threat to anyone. Moreover, he is the current emperor uncle and is extremely noble. In any aspect, it is most appropriate for him to stay in Luoyang. While the other princes were afraid of each other and compromised each other, they could only accept this method that was not a solution.
Wuwei, Liangzhou, the Western Regions Army Camp.
The night was dark, but the torches in the military camp were bright and boiling.
The military rations had just arrived, and the Hu people who had not known the taste of meat for several days immediately flocked to them. After robbing the jerky meat, they lit up bunch of bonfires in the military camp, each of which was in groups of three or five, singing and dancing around the fire. The only regret is that there are too few women in the army and there is a lot of fun.
Young and beautiful, with a hot figure, and passionate princess Aziguli, wearing a thin colorful dance dress, twisting her slender waist and wandering between the bonfire, showing her moving dance steps and wonderful figure to these Western Region soldiers without hesitation.
The only disappointment is that at any time, the princess's face was always covered with a thin veil, making it difficult to see her beauty, but the pair of beautiful blue eyes exposed outside, as well as the blond hair that floated like waves, were already charming enough.
Many soldiers with strong figures, rough temperaments and good dancing volunteered to jump out, forming a group of Aziguli like flowers collecting bees surrounding flowers. The desire of the Hu people in the Western Regions was extremely open, and Aziguli was even more stingy to put her angry body on the soldiers and rub her. First, she was confused with her passion, and then she floated away like a butterfly~~
Near the southwest corner outside the Western Regions Army camp, there are more than a hundred felt bags.
Compared with the lively camp in the Western Regions Army, it seems deserted. There are only a dozen burning mutton fat torches inserted obliquely on the ground, sprinkling faintly into the silent camp. Under the faint firelight, Xu Huang and hundreds of Bingzhou elite soldiers were lurking in the wasteland like wild wolves.
Wang Yuan was indeed very cautious. Although he no longer doubted it, in case he did not let Xu Huang, hundreds of Bingzhou elite soldiers, enter the camp, but instead set up more than a hundred felt bags in the southwest corner outside the camp to resettle. Unfortunately, Wang Yuan's opponent was the cruel butcher as a wolf as a horse butcher and the poisonous soldier of the chaotic country.
Of course, Ma Butcher and Jia Dushi would not bet on all the bets to defeat the enemy on Xu Huang, the hundreds of Bingzhou elite soldiers.
Ten miles away from the Western Regions Army Camp, the Ma Yue Army Camp was ten miles away.
Three thousand Wuhuan wolf cavalry, three thousand elite soldiers from Hedong who had survived the battle (survived by defending Longxian) and more than three thousand Bingzhou soldiers, as well as more than four thousand county and state soldiers, have all gathered in the open space outside the camp. The night sky is dark and silent. Only the strong wind of shouting swept over the banner in Dian Wei's hand and snapped.
Jia Xu also rarely wears armor and holds a sharp edge, standing beside Ma Yue.
Looking at the starry sky in the sky, Jia Xu said to Ma Yue: "Lord, the time is almost over."
"Yes." Ma Yue nodded and said in a deep voice, "The whole army attacked!"
With Ma Yue's order, more than 10,000 troops rushed towards the Western Regions Army camp ten miles away like a rolling iron stream.
Western Regions Army Camp.
The crescent moon sets westward, and it is almost dawn. Finally, the soldiers who are exhausted are tilted down and lying on the ground and sleep soundly. The soldiers next to them shout that their companions are useless, but the next moment, they quickly fall down. In less than a moment, the Western Regions camp was already full of sleepy soldiers.
When Wang Yuan heard that the outside of the tent suddenly became quiet, he was surprised and came out of the tent to check it out, but found that the open space outside the tent was full of soldiers. What was even more shocking was that the soldiers were all twitching and foaming at the mouth, and they were already unconscious. When they thought about it, they knew that something was wrong.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
Wang Yuan was shocked and turned around and asked the personal soldiers standing outside the tent. The two personal soldiers were Han soldiers and wanted to protect Wang Yuan's central army tent, so they did not participate in the carnival of the Western Regions soldiers, nor did they eat the jerky meat and military rations they just sent today, so they were safe and sound. When Wang Yuan asked, he replied, "Sir, I just sang and danced, and I have all lie down."
"There is such a thing!?"
When Wang Yuan was about to go forward to check the truth, he suddenly felt a blur in front of him, and everything around him began to become hazy and circulate. Wang Yuan rubbed his eyes hard, and the scenery in front of him gradually became clearer, but his mind was still a little heavy, but his annoyance was churning in his belly.
Wang Yuan, who was quick-minded, immediately thought of the batch of military rations and jerky meat that had just been transported to the camp today. He was surprised and said to his personal soldiers: "Poison, poisonous! The batch of military rations and jerky meat that he just delivered today are poisonous! Hurry up~~ Collect them all and destroy them on the spot, and no one is allowed to eat them anymore."
"Affect the order."
The two personal soldiers agreed and were about to turn around and leave, Wang Yuan said again: "Come back."
The personal soldier Yuan Banliding turned around and said, "What are the instructions for sir?"
Wang Yuan beat his head hard, trying his best to keep himself awake, and said in a voice: "Immediately blow the trumpet and gather all the soldiers who were not poisoned. If the official expected it was not bad, this must be the butcher's poisonous plan. Next, the butcher's army will definitely take the opportunity to attack the camp."
The personal soldiers agreed to take the order and watched the personal soldiers leave. Wang Yuan felt the scenery in front of him blurring again, and his head became heavier and heavier. Finally, after a muffled groan, Wang Yuan fell down like a piece of wood. After falling to the ground, his limbs began to twitch, and white foam began to rise from the corners of his mouth.
However ~~
Before Wang Yuan's personal soldiers could whistle and gather soldiers who were not poisoned, a long and distant horn sounded in the vast night in the distance. Before the horn sounded, there were roundabout shouts sweeping over. The sky was clear, and with the slight brightness of the eastern sky, the Western Regions soldiers responsible for the vigil were surprised to find that the dark enemy soldiers rushed from the darkness like endless ants.
Before Ma Yue's army could enter the camp, Xu Huang's army, who was placed in the southwest corner outside the camp, was the first to attack.
"So so!"
A harsh sound of breaking through the air passed by, and Xu Huang shot five night guards one by one to kill each other. Almost at the same time, dozens of flying claws were nailed firmly to the camp bar. More than a hundred soldiers surrounded the generals and pulled the cables of the flying claws and pulled them hard. The camp bar bar, which was not too strong, collapsed.
Xu Huangqing took out his sword and led forward. The eight hundred elite soldiers who had been waiting for a long time went down the mountain and rushed into the Western Regions Alliance camp. According to the pre-developed strategy, the elite soldiers divided into dozens of small groups and drilled around. They saw Hu people, burned the tents, and smashed the things.
In less than a moment, fires surged into the sky in the camp. In the burning flames, many Hu soldiers from the Western Regions who were lucky enough to be unpoisoned were running around in panic, shouting and completely lost their rules. At this most deadly moment, the army of the horse butcher barely arrived.
Luoyang, a dilapidated small inn.
Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei temporarily settled here.
Although Liu Bei had already been recognized by the emperor as the emperor's uncle, he was now the emperor's uncle after the eunuch rebellion, Dong Zhuo's autocracy, and the Xiliang military disaster two days ago, Luoyang was no longer prosperous, and the imperial family was even more in decline. Even the emperor and the empress dowager had to help Wang Yun and other powerful ministers. The eunuch palace maids were forced to go out of the city to collect wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. In this case, how could Liu Bei be treated too generously?
Inside the inn courtyard.
Liu Bei was weaving straw sandals quickly, like an old mercenary who had been selling straw sandals for many years. Guan Yu also changed into a torn and old cloth clothes. He was carrying a large pick of hay from outside the city into the yard, carefully placed it in the corner of the yard, and pressed stones on it to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
Only Zhang Fei had his chest exposed and his abdomen was exposed, and he leaned on the mat to drink cold water impatiently.
"Brother, why are you weaving straw sandals? It took a long time to weave a pair of straw sandals and it couldn't be sold for two cents. What's the use?" Zhang Fei was obviously dissatisfied with Liu Bei's behavior and muttered, "It's not as good as when I was in Zhuo County. My brother is still the governor of a county after all~~Bah, the water in Luoyang is really fucking bad. Brother, why not go back to Langjia Country earlier. My mouth is almost fading out of the bird."
"Yide, you know how to drink." Guan Yu, who had just piled up hay, turned around and glared at Zhang Fei, and said, "Since the eldest brother wants to sell straw sandals, there is naturally a big brother's reason. You and I will do it as you, but if you don't help, you still say sarcastic words, it's really unreasonable."
