April 19th, Yin, Jiuquan Road!

Geng Changqing, the thief of Hexi, stood on the high slope, rubbing his cheeks that were as cold as iron armor...

The climate in the West is moody!

It is late spring and early summer. In this time when the Central Plains is getting warmer, the Gobi Desert in the northwest lives all year round.

Morning and evening are like winter, but midday is summer and autumn...

Today, the sun shyly hid in the clouds, making the cold morning dew heavier. The bitter cold wind blew on the skin, and it hurt like a knife.

I don’t know if I’m used to living a comfortable life, but Geng Changqing found that his enthusiasm for leading the crowd to plunder was not as fanatic as before. Compared to fighting and killing, catching wild horses in the Wild Horse Valley, nesting in warm and snuggling by the stove, taking a nap is a kind of enjoyment.

If it weren't for the serious situation, he really wouldn't have done it himself!

However, Pei Min's plan to clear the Hexi bandits was really hanging with a knife above his head. As the Horse King, he had the obligation to protect his brothers from being cleansed.

Even if he was unwilling to pull his brother who had already made a fortune into the water, he could not tolerate him continuing to play the role of military thieves.

Geng Changqing was still extremely afraid of Pei Min. He had two outstanding generals in the Kaiyuan Dynasty. One was Xue Ne, who had just passed away from illness, and the other was Pei Min: the remaining generals were much inferior to them.

Geng Changqing had never fought with Pei Min, but had dealt with Xue Na.

In the entire Hexi, Liangzhou's wealth surpasses the sum of the other six states. There is no doubt that Liangzhou is fat and the foundation of his rise.

However, Xue Ne has only been in charge of Liangzhou for only two years. He was defeated and the generals were not afraid to enter Liangzhou, which led to his actions of cultivating his younger brother.

The series of confrontations made Geng Changqing understand that he, a horse thief, could do anything to deal with some shrimp soldiers and crab generals. When facing a famous general like Xue Ne, he could only give him a dish torture.

Fortunately, Xue Ne was only the Grand Governor of Liangzhou and was only responsible for the military affairs of Liangzhou, which gave him a chance to breathe.

Pei Min's reputation is even higher than Xue Ne, and his power and strength cover the entire Hexi.

Now if you don’t deal with him while he is not firmly in his foothold and wait for him to truly control Hexi, that is the end of their horse thieves.

In order to avoid a desperate situation, he came out in person this time and planned to do a big vote.

A cavalry rushed in the distance, "Mr. Qing! Here, Zhang Xiaosong and the others are here!"

In order to avoid people doubting his relationship with Geng Hou, Geng Changqing claimed that his surname was Niu and his name was Niu Qing. Most of the adults called him "Qing Ye" in awe.

"Okay!" Geng Changqing whistled, pointed the sword in his hand and said sternly: "No one of the Tang soldiers in front of him will be left!"

Geng Changqing is full of courage. Since he decided to make a good deal, he did not plan to make a small fuss, and robbery was just one of them.

Killing Zhang Xiaosong is the real ace...

Zhang Xiaosong worked in the Western Regions with great prestige. Even though he was impeached and imprisoned, he was still a great figure worthy of admiration.

If such a person died innocently in Hexi due to public security issues, Pei Min, the governor, would be to blame.

In addition, there were bandits everywhere and the army was full of grievances. Even if Pei Min was strong, he had to slow down his pace, which also gave them a chance to breathe.

Five hundred horse thieves roared forward. They usually accompanied the war horses at the Guazhou military horse farm, and their riding skills were particularly good. They ran like flying, sweeping across the prison convoy ten miles away like a whirlwind.

Ten miles acres arrive in a flash!

Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps...

Geng Changqing looked at the prison car not far away, and looked at the soldiers near the prison car. The soldiers there had formed a stacked formation that was good at defending, and were ready for defense in a short time...

Looking at this scene, Geng Changqing suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

The other party was too calm and calm!

How could this sudden attack be so swift?

Have you prepared for it?

Geng Changqing's thoughts were heard. Just when he was shocked and suspicious, he suddenly realized that the enemy on the opposite side suddenly took out a huge crossbow from behind...

In an instant, Geng Changqing felt cold in his heart, and was speechless.

He had seen the power of Tang Crossbow. The terrifying long-range weapon had a range of up to three or four hundred steps. Its power was extremely terrible. It often had an arrow piercing through three or four of them...

At this time, the distance between the two armies was less than one or five hundred steps, and it was too late to evacuate and retreat immediately.

The only priority is one way to resist one wave.

Even if the other party is prepared, there are only a hundred people, but he has a total of five hundred.

"Breaking, only by rushing to the nearest can you avoid the powerful crossbow!"

His voice fell, and in an instant, the soul-chasing crossbow arrows roared over, and the ruthless crossbow arrow penetrated the people and horses, causing the people and horses to neigh and become in chaos.

With this blow alone, Geng Changqing revealed that more than 200 soldiers under his command had been lost...

After being attacked by crossbow arrows, even if they do not die, they will lose their combat effectiveness.

Geng Changqing was bleeding. He controlled a lot of power, but the ones he brought were all the closest direct descendants. This meeting cost more than 200 people, and his intestines made him regret it.

This is not the end. The commanding general of the Tang army is nothing but someone else, but Zhao Yizhen, who is good at using tricks and using troops.

It turned out that when Wang Xiaobai received Pei Min's order to investigate the Guazhou military horse farm, there were only a few people in the military horse farm, and the original guards were gone.

He made a quick decision and sneaked into the military horse farm to find the left-behind manager.

The military horse farm was originally very cautious, and even Wang Xiaobai was not easy to sneak in, but almost all the guards were transferred away, and the remaining soldiers were not enough to maintain the public security of the huge military horse farm.

With almost no effort, Wang Xiaobai completed the task and forced Geng Changqing to attack Zhang Xiaosong, and the flying pigeon passed it to Pei Min of Liangzhou.

When Pei Min heard the news, he was very impressed in response. He immediately formulated two plans, one conservative and the other unrestrained, with the first priority to ensure Zhang Xiaosong's personal safety.

Pei Min gave the decision-making power of the two plans to Zhang Xiaosong. Although Zhang Xiaosong was a first-class scholar, he was also brave enough to lure the enemy. He directly chose the unrestrained plan and personally lured the enemy. When he was intrigued, he also chanted the new masterpiece "Liangzhou Ci" by Wang Zhihuan, who had just arrived in Liangzhou.

Seeing Geng Changqing choose to continue charging, Zhao Yizhen also showed a hint of praise in her eyes: If the other party panic chooses to command the troops to escape from the terrible crossbow attack range, they will give them a chance to shoot in the second stage.

Continue to sprint, just in time to deal with the weakness of being in a hurry to shoot a strong crossbow...

"Removing the crossbow, top the javelin!"

The Central Plains war formation rarely uses javelins, but as early as the Three Kingdoms period, Xiliang was influenced by the Western Qin Dynasty, and the army was equipped with special weapons javelins...

Zhao Yizhen is flexible in using troops and likes to play with such messy troops. He can also expose the strengths of these troops.
