Peerless Pirates
Chapter 666: Battle of Xiongguan Pass Part 1
Read the complete legend of Chi You in Baqiao Town, east of Chang'an City.
Xin Yu was naked, struggling to carry a bag of grain, and walked cautiously to the Bahe River. Several whip marks were particularly eye-catching on the side of his face and chest.
On the Ba River, several grain-carrying ships were lying on the shore. Rows of green-armored sergeants were densely guarding along the road. There were also some sergeants with red ribbons on their arms, waving their whips to drive away the servants carrying grain.
Since the Daqi soldiers besieged Tongguan and Yaoguan, Baqiao Town has become the center for the transfer of military supplies in Xixia. Through Bashui, ships can sail directly to the city of Lantian Town, and Lantian Town is where the entire Yaoguan grain and grass are located.
Similarly, you can go up through the Ba River and enter the Weishui River. If you go eastward on the edge of the river, you can go directly to Guanxi Town. The Xixia people still firmly control the Weishui River. Guanxi Town, located behind Tongguan, also gathered a large amount of food and grass, and many Xixia wounded soldiers were also arranged here.
Due to the special geographical location of Baqiao Town, it became the logistics base for Li Yuandan's regime to fight against the Daqi sergeants. Li Yuandan stationed a total of 5,000 troops to guard it. At the same time, hundreds of Feilongyuan's craftsmen also lurked here, watching. Follow every suspicious person.
During this period, rumors were prevalent around Chang'an City. It was said that Daqi Xizuo had sneaked into Guanzhong, pretending to be ordinary people, and instigating Han people to rebel. While Xixia officials refuted the rumors, they strengthened the screening and control of Han people. In the military camp, many The Dangxiang officers confiscated the weapons of the Han sergeants and would only return them to the Han sergeants during battle.
Many Han officials in Chang'an City wrote letters one after another. In addition to expressing their loyalty, they also directly denounced the destruction of Li Yuandan's regime. At this time of national calamity in Xixia, the Xixia people should unite with the Han people to overcome the difficulties together. Li Yuandan comforted them, On the one hand, Han people in important positions were removed and replaced with Party members.
It's no wonder that Li Yuandan was in a panic. After the war broke out, two fires inexplicably broke out in Chang'an City. Although it was ultimately confirmed to be two accidents, the rumors inevitably spread. With three people becoming a tiger, Li Yuandan had to rely on the Dangxiang clan. of his own people in order to preserve the political power.
During the sixty-seventh year of Xixia's rule in Guanzhong, several Xixia emperors worked hard to bridge ethnic conflicts and married Han Chinese as queens. As a result, the Han people and the Party members gradually tended to integrate. However, an internal struggle for power seriously affected the This increased the strength of the Dangxiang clan in Guanzhong. As many Han nobles were involved in infighting, after Li Yuandan came to the throne, he killed several Han people who supported Li Yuankui and Li Xi, causing ethnic conflicts in Guanzhong to rise again.
Li Yuandan also realized this, so he followed the example of previous generations of emperors and married Han nobles. Before Li Yuandan could do enough, the war broke out. As rumors spread, Li Yuandan secretly made up his mind to rely on his own people to survive first. This level.
Although the Daqi sergeants had been attacking Tongguan for a long time and were unable to defeat it, they used rumor tactics to lay landmines within Li Yuandan's regime.
Xin Yu was one of the first Daqi sergeants to sneak into Guanzhong. He led more than ten capable sergeants to take a small boat up the Yellow River at night, bypassing the Xixia defense army far away, and entered Chidi Qianli from the north of Chaoyi in Tongzhou. Guanzhong. They traveled at night at dawn and went through many hardships before sneaking to Suyi Town in Yaozhou.
Due to the invasion of Dajin sergeants, a large number of wealthy people from the north fled south to Chang'an, hoping to use the fortified city of Chang'an to escape the war. Some people were even ready to continue fleeing west, hoping to enter Guanzhong through Dashan Pass and eventually move to Shu.
In Suyi Town, Xin Yu and others pretended to be retired Han soldiers who had no ambition, and were hired by a wealthy family to serve as a nursing home and moved south with him. The war was in chaos, and the wealthy family also wanted more people to protect them.
What is unexpected is that Xin Yu and others were stopped by Xixia sergeants as soon as they crossed the mouth of the Wei River and arrived at Weiqiao Town. The money of the wealthy family was "borrowed", while Xin Yu and others became coolies and were taken to Transporting grain and grass in Baqiao Town.
The original purpose of Xin Yu and others was to sneak into Chang'an City and wait for opportunities to cause destruction, but unexpectedly they became slaves. Under the close supervision of Xixia sergeants, Xin Yu had no choice but to endure it for the time being.
The war was urgent, and the Xixia sergeants didn't have a good look towards the Han servants, whipping them frequently. Xin Yu's strong body was almost too much to bear. As for the more than ten sergeants under him, four or five were also lost. Three more people were transferred. Elsewhere, now, there are only six people left around Xin Yu, mixed in the team of servants.
Xin Yu gritted his teeth and stepped onto the pedal. One end of the pedal was placed on the river bank, and the other side was placed on the boat. These boats were transporting military supplies to Aoguan. Because the water in the upper reaches of Ba River was shallow, the boat was not big and could only hold seven Eight thousand kilograms of grain. There were four ships in total, carrying a total of about thirty thousand kilograms of military grain.
"You guys, follow the boat, hurry up!" A flat-faced Xixia sergeant pointed with his riding crop and pointed at a few of the slightly stronger people.
Xin Yu suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and hurriedly agreed to the latest chapter of Final Fantasy Beyond. He had been patiently waiting for this opportunity for four or five days.
It turns out that every time the grain is transported, the Xixia sergeant always asks a few people to go with the ship. First, these people can help unload the goods after arriving at the destination. Second, these military veterans need someone to wait on the ship. They work honestly and are in good health. Han Chinese slave husbands are the best targets for abuse - honest people will not resist, and those who are in good health will resist torture.
Xin Yu secretly looked around and found that all six of his sergeants were included in this transfer, but they were scattered on two boats. Xin Yu secretly thought to himself that there were seven people in total including himself. If used properly, he said Maybe it can really accomplish something big.
The waterway from Bashui to Lantian is only sixty or seventy miles. Due to the upward travel, the boat speed is slower, so it takes more than three hours. This half-day is enough for the military men to have a lot of fun.
There were eight strong servants on the boat that Xin Yu was on. As soon as the eight people got on the boat, they were driven into the cabin. Xin Yu glanced at the four men around him and leaned on the grain bag obediently. Take a nap.
Half an hour later, the ship had left Baqiao Town. A yellow-faced sergeant went down to the cabin. "You, and you, put on these two clothes and come up right away." After saying that, he threw two old clothes over. military uniform.
The ones chosen were none other than Xin Yu and another strong-looking farmer.
"This military master, what's the matter?" one of Xin Yu's men named Yan Feng asked. They were worried that their leader would be taken away.
"What's the matter with you?" The yellow-faced sergeant glared, "Get out of here." As he said that, he kicked Yan Feng aside.
Xin Yu winked at Yan Feng, signaling him to calm down, and then put on his old military uniform. The farmer didn't say anything, but also put on his old military uniform.
The two followed the yellow-faced sergeant to the deck. More than ten Xixia sergeants were sitting or leaning on the edge of the deck, forming a half circle. Seeing Xin Yu and the two coming up, the sergeants immediately burst into cheers. .
A Xixia sergeant with a black beard held a scabbard and shouted, "I've placed my bet, I've placed my bet, I've decided to leave."
"Fifty cents, I'll buy this, it looks strong."
"Hey, I'll pay eighty cents for that black-faced guy. I think this guy looks like he's been trained."
…
Soon, more than a dozen sergeants took out money from their arms and went down to the left and right sides of Sergeant Blackbeard.
Just when Xin Yu was wondering what they were going to do, two steel knives were thrown at their feet, "You two, each have a knife, let's compete." The yellow-faced sergeant smiled maliciously.
Neither Xin Yu nor the farmer picked up the knife, but hunched over, looking very scared.
"Damn it! Pick up the knife quickly. Let me tell you, the winner will be rewarded by the military master, and the loser, haha, just wait to feed the fish. Hurry up!" The yellow-faced sergeant waved his hand impatiently.
Only then did Xin Yu understand that these guys were gambling, and what they were betting on was the lives of two people. Xin Yu was secretly angry, but knew that it was not the time to explode, so he had to look at the farmer. The farmer was also looking at him. , seems to be fearful, but also seems to be evaluating his combat power.
"Hurry up, or I will kill you now!" A sergeant next to him came up with a knife and raised it high.
The farmer trembled all over and went to pick up the steel knife on the deck. Xin Yu sighed secretly and had to pick up the other knife.
At this time, except for the four military ships, there were no other people on the river. On the other military ships, there were also noises. Needless to say, the same game was being played on the other three ships.
The farmer took two steps back to one side with the steel knife and looked at Xin Yu warily. Xin Yu knew from the way the opponent held the knife that the opponent was a complete layman on how to use a knife.
"Hurry up!" The yellow-faced sergeant kicked Xin Yu in the butt, then folded his arms and watched the fun with a smile.
Xin Yu was seven or eight feet away from the farmer, so he had to imitate the farmer's behavior, holding the handle of the knife with both hands and looking at each other half-crouched.
"What are you doing standing there? Cut it!" Another sergeant yelled, clapping the weapon in his hand.
The farmer was shaking all over, like sifting chaff. Many sergeants urged and laughed at the same time. Finally, the farmer couldn't bear the pressure, closed his eyes, shouted and attacked Xin Yu.
Xin Yu also shouted and stepped forward. With a clang, the two knives collided. Although Xin Yu restrained his strength, the farmer was frightened and frightened, so he could not use his full strength, and the knife in his hand suddenly fell. On the deck, Xin Yu secretly screamed that something was wrong, pretended to be startled, and dropped the knife.
"Idiot, pick it up quickly!" the sergeants shouted.
The farmer glanced at Xin Yu, quickly picked up the knife, and while Xin Yu was in a daze, he slashed at him again. Although Xin Yu couldn't bear to hurt the other person, he wouldn't joke with his own life. He lowered his waist, jumped forward, hugged his opponent, and pushed forward hard.
The deck was only about three feet wide in total. Xin Yu's attack was so fierce that he knocked the farmer off the boat. The yellow-faced sergeant behind him was also knocked off the boat. With two plops, the farmer and Xixia The sergeants all fell into the water.
All the sergeants on the boat laughed loudly, and some of them shouted "I won" and then reached out to Sergeant Blackbeard to ask for money. As for the peasants and the Xixia sergeant who fell into the water, no one paid attention to them.
After the gambling money was divided, the sergeants fished the two people out of the water. The river was cold on this day, and as soon as they got on the boat, they both sneezed.
Seeing the drowned appearance of the two men, the sergeants laughed. The yellow-faced sergeant became angry, picked up a steel knife from the deck, and without any explanation, swung it on the farmer's neck. The farmer fell into the water again without saying a word. middle and never came up again.
