Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Three thousand cavalry chased in front, five thousand foot soldiers followed, but after a while, the enemy seemed to be fleeing, so Ma Teng gradually relaxed his vigilance.

Then Hu Jiang saw a dirt mountain in front of him, Dang Even a horse rushed up first, and the thousands of Hu Qi behind him rushed up without thinking, and more than four thousand Hu Qi rushed up this small dirt mountain in one breath. , Seeing this scene, Ma Teng couldn't help laughing.

"This group of mindless Qiangs, the cavalry rushed to the top of the earth mountain, is this not a cocoon?"

Hu Qi galloped quickly, but now he rushed to the mountain. Ma Teng only had to send two thousand crossbowmen to guard the mountain. As long as Hu Qi came out, he would shoot indiscriminately, and the enemy could only wait to die.

"Three thousand steppers guard the foot of the mountain, and the rest are waiting for someone to go up the mountain and completely defeat the enemy!" Ma Teng turned around and said to Cheng Gongying: "Brother Cheng, please lead your army to set up a checkpoint at the foot of the mountain. Hu Qi drove down, and you immediately ordered the strong archers to shoot with strong bows and hard crossbows."

Cheng Gongying nodded: "Brother Shoucheng just stepped forward. A certain leader is here to supervise the formation."

Ma Teng laughed, turned around and volleyed the whip in his hand: "Follow me and encircle the enemy!"

Three thousand horses and two thousand foot soldiers immediately followed Ma Teng and rushed forward, and the two armies began to fight on the hill.

Cheng Gongying remained motionless, sitting still, waiting for Ma Teng to drive down the enemy, and then used a strong bow and a hard crossbow to completely wipe out the enemy.

And at this moment, more than a dozen flags in the distance rolled like flying, and the mighty smoke rose up, and thousands of Hu Qi arrived in the distance.

Cheng Gongying was taken aback and looked intently, only to see five thousand Hu rides flying from a distance, apparently waiting close to him a long time ago.

"Don't panic, the sword and shield fighters form a formation to resist Hu Qi's rush, and the crossbowmen prepare to shoot."

In an instant, five thousand Hu rides were already rolling in like a wave, these five thousand Hu rides were full of energy, obviously they had been reserving for a long time, and a wave of determination came to face him.

As long as the infantry lined up properly, they can completely resist the charge of the cavalry, but Cheng Gongying, after all, is few people, and has experienced a rapid march and another battle, but only shot a round of arrows, and the opposite Hu Qi rushed up, a steady stream Under Hu Qi's impact, it didn't take long for Liangzhou soldiers to face collapse.

More than a dozen Hu Qi found a gap in the Liangzhou army, immediately brandished a saber to kill several people, and followed the gap to kill Cheng Gongying.

Sa!

The sharp saber cut through the sound of the wind and slashed down towards Cheng Gongying. Fortunately, the elite soldiers on the side swung their swords desperately to resist, which was able to resist Hu Qi's front.

"Join the army, Hu Qibing is too strong, please join the army for the time being to avoid the limelight." Army Sima Sunchao struggling to kill a member of Hu Qi, turned around and shouted to Cheng Gongying.

Cheng Gongying frowned and said, "The whole army is withdrawn to Tushan. Don't entangle with the enemy."

Upon hearing Cheng Gongying's command, the three thousand steppers immediately gathered under the leadership of their respective officers to retreat to the top of the mountain.

And seeing the enemy troops retreating to the Tushan Mountain, the five thousand Hu Qi fell down, but they didn't even chase after them, as if they originally wanted the enemy to retreat to the Tushan Mountain.

Cheng Gongying had just evacuated to Tushan, only to hear the sound of people shouting from behind. It turned out that Ma Teng led his army to drive Hu Qi down from the Tushan Mountain, but Ma Teng saw Cheng Gongying also withdraw to the Tushan Mountain. Suddenly he was taken aback.

"Brother Cheng, why did someone rush up the mountain instead of asking you to wait at the bottom of the mountain?"

Cheng Gongying was too late to answer, because thousands of Hu Qi had rushed up, he had to order his subordinates to form an army, hoping to block the thousands of Hu Qi on the mountain.

And these thousands of Hu riders did not stop, they were divided into two parts directly from the left and right wings, and rushed past Chenggong British army like the wind, and went straight down the mountain.

When the two Huqis converged, there were more than 8,000 people. After a **** battle, the Ma Teng army on the mountain only had nearly 7,000 people left. Instead, the troops fell into a disadvantage.

"Hahaha, Li Zhonglang, this time I was able to trap Liangzhou soldiers on top of the mountain, thanks to your strategy." Below the mountain, the leader of the Qiang formation has a beard and a stout body.

Li Su laughed and laughed: "The leader has won the award. Prime Minister Dong said first. As long as the leader can wipe out this group of enemy troops and then send troops to Liangzhou, Prime Minister Dong is willing to give the land of Juyan's vassal state to the leader Wrangler."

Qiang leader Tu Zexiong shook his head dissatisfied: "The land of Juyan's vassal state is really too little. Prime Minister Dong is very good friend. We should also give the land of Dunhuang County to us for herding horses, otherwise how can we settle down in a certain account What about the herders?"

Hearing Tu Zexiong blatantly bargaining with him, Li Su couldn't help frowning, but he glanced at the Liangzhou soldiers trapped on the soil mountain, and said in his heart: Let these Qiang people kill the Liangzhou soldiers before Dong Dong The prime minister's army threatened Liangzhou, so he cleaned up the group of Qiang people.

"Well...but the leader must annihilate the group of Liangzhou soldiers on the Tushan Mountain, otherwise Prime Minister Dong will not agree." Li Su's expression was embarrassing.

Tu Zexiong heard Li Su agree to cede the two counties of Juyan and Jiuquan, Tu Zexiong was overjoyed: "Li Zhonglang and Prime Minister Dong can rest assured that although I am a Qiang, I also know the truth."

Li Su nodded and said solemnly: "Then please besiege the enemy again by the leader, and then go back after seeing Ma Teng give the leader with his own eyes."

Tu Zexiong hummed: "You don't have to rush to attack at this time, and you will be trapped for three days and five nights. When the enemy soldiers are tired of horses and have no strength, then it will be easy to kill again.

Li Su frowned, but this Tu Zexiong was a bit brainy. If he led the army to rush, the two sides would have equal strength. Even if they could completely defeat the Liangzhou soldiers, this group of Hu Qi would have been seriously injured, just like Bian Zhuangzi stabbed the tiger. One tiger died and the other injured.

unfortunately……

Tu Zexiong laughed and said: "Everyone will get off the horse and rest, light a fire and cook. If the enemy rushes down the mountain, immediately shoot with a bow to drive the enemy back."

Hearing the command of the leader, more than 8,000 Hu Qi stepped down and set up camp. At the same time, they slaughtered the flock they brought, and were not eager to attack.

But above the earth mountain is another scene.

"No wonder these thousands of Hu riders didn't discern the situation and had to rush to the mountain. I told them they couldn't understand the art of war. It turned out that everything was the enemy's trick." Ma Teng jumped off the horse and looked at the horses and the dense crowd under the mountain. There was also a burning fire, and behind it was the enemy army whose morale was low because of the defeat, and could not help but sigh.

Cheng Gong on the side said gravely in English: "Also let the soldiers eat some dry food, rest for a while and talk about other things."
