Spring and Autumn I Am King
Chapter 428: Dare to pull the princes off their horses!
Thanks to book friend czdxh042408 for being the owner of this book.
Seeing the Qi army retreating under Zhao Bing's attack, Yang Hu could understand their helplessness. When you are hungry and you can't sleep well for several nights in a row, your combat effectiveness will plummet. It is a miracle that the Qi people can drag on for so many days without breaking down, especially those who are no different from the people of Qi and Qingxia. .
He was also in this predicament and was forced to accept the reconciliation proposed by Zhao Wuxi.
Two months ago, on the shore of Yuncheng Lake, dozens of miles to the southeast, Yanghu's army of more than 3,000 people was wiped out, most of them were captured, and he was the only one who escaped by swimming and ran back to Dongshan Island. If Zhao Wuxi left him alone, he would still have the confidence to hold on to the island until next year, but it would cost his life, and even the tragedy of changing children and eating them would happen.
But Zhao Wuxi's reaction was beyond his imagination, but from the moment he received the reply, Roof Zhi stopped fighting against Xilu, although his original intention was to delay time.
This little Si Kou of the State of Lu did not ask him to bow down and hand over all his followers like the former Lu and Qi scholars who came to surrender, but asked the messenger to propose a cooperation model.
Recruit a group of thieves?
The battle between Qi and Jin is imminent, and Wu Xie does not have enough time and energy to make Rogue Zhi completely surrender, so he can only maintain the status quo. He proposed that Robber Zhi could continue to lead the group of thieves on Dongshan Island, and together with other island owners and cave owners who had already surrendered to Yuncheng, hand over their relatives as hostages, and then Zhao Wuxi would provide money and food to help them through the winter. The duty of the group of thieves is to help him attack Punan to make up for the difficulty of insufficient troops.
In order to survive the winter, the group of thieves could only do their own work in Punan. Many people were abandoned intentionally or unintentionally, and became the bait swallowed by Gongsun Qu of the State of Wei, or the gully-fillers under Juye Township. There were also many people who were attracted by the attractive conditions of Yuncheng, and quietly brought their families ashore to ask for surrender, willing to be Zhao Wuxi's accountant Qimin.
The clever Robber Zhi knew that this was an act of drinking poison to quench his thirst, and the people and tribes of Onozawa were draining at an unprecedented speed. But he was helpless. And he didn't dare to have any strange thoughts, Ran Qiu's hundreds of mandarin ducks who terrified the robbers were staring at him. When Zhao Yang's army arrived, they didn't dare to make trouble.
However, the Qi army was even larger, and a total of 40,000 people passed through Xilu. It made the people under Roof Zhi feel that Zhao's father and son are going to be finished this time. They happily waited for Zhao Wuxi's power to collapse, and Xilu and Punan fell into chaos.
"By then. The general will be able to start again from Dongshan Island!"
"And don't be too happy, everything is unknown."
But Roof Zhi was not so optimistic. Even at the seemingly most critical moment, Ran Qiu's hundreds of mandarin ducks never pulled away from the lake. It could be seen that the Zhao family was far from the last moment, and even more so, This retreat may have been deliberately done by them, just like the last time they lured a group of thieves to land for an attack.
Sure enough, Zhao Wuxi gathered all the previously captured ships to Pushui. Zhao Bing escaped successfully. When the heavy snow fell, the situation reversed, and Robber Zhi witnessed how the 40,000 Qi army was cut off from the food route and retreated without food and clothing.
With the deepening of the war, his mind has also changed from the initial emptiness and contempt to full-hearted.
Hunting princes, high officials, cities and countries, this is also what a thief wants to do. The situation is like a huge vortex in the heart of the lake, and everyone can't help themselves.
Today, he is lurking in the northeast of the battlefield with nearly a thousand people. I don't even know what I want to do.
Witness the destruction of the Qi army and the fall of the monarch's crown? He had a bad relationship with the Ji clan in Lucheng, and was expelled by Ji Pingzi, not because he advocated that Qi was tough. Is it inconsistent with Ji's interests?
Or to show a way out in front of Zhao Qing, who is eager for talents, and find a way out for his future? Zhao's Lower Palace Juxian Pavilion did not ask about his background, but only looked at the rumors that he was able to attract guests. He also vaguely heard that it was a lie to say that he had never been moved.
Or it may suddenly erupt into trouble and help Qi attack Zhao. What about Zhao Wuxi, who was destined to be unable to stand up independently in revenge? The wildness in Roof Zhi's heart tempted him to choose this path.
But Robber Zhi looked at the horns not far behind him, and it was actually Ran Qiuyuan who was watching, and gave up the last plan.
The situation is stronger than people. He has only a thousand people under him. He really can't help the chaos of the Qi army.
So he waited until now, watched most of the battle, and quickly thought about where he should go.
...
Zhao Bing has launched a general attack, and more and more people poured out from the hills. They hid behind the barriers formed by shields and spears, and marched in unison. There were not only the armored soldiers, but also the crossbowmen in the thick linen clothes.
Brightly colored flags fluttered above their heads, and the flags were swaying in the wind. The illiterate group of thieves did not know what these were, but they saw the patterns of animals and animals, but the robbers could call out the name of each flag. and meaning.
"The wrong leather bird is called 闟, because the chapter is called 闃", Zhao Wuxi's flag is a combination of 闟 and 闃, the top of the flagpole has a wooden or bronze statue of a black bird, and the flags below it have different patterns, representing different arms.
Robber Zhi caught a glimpse of an angry rooster, which served as a banner for the refusal. The sword and shield hand carried the walking tiger flag with the sword and the shield, the spearmen carried the porcupine flag, and the crossbowmen carried the owl flag. After them, thousands of Zhao soldiers swarmed, and there were four burrows and burrows, and there were turtles and snakes roaming around.
As for the "bee flag" on the hill, it should be the flag of Zhao Qing's bodyguards in black, symbolizing that they guard the lord like a swarm of bees guarding the nest. There is also the flaming sun black bird banner that represents the Zhao family, and the yak-tailed scorpion that represents the position of the military commander in the state of Jin.
As for the Qi army, or because of the headwind, but seeing the flags slanted, the flags covered with ice **** began to fall under the impact of Zhao soldiers. Next, even Qing Shigao Zhang received Qihou Te's gift, and the "Lingu" flag painted with the flag of Jiaolong also began to retreat.
In the end, it was the Qihou Cheyu Department, and the huge "Dragon Nine" flag revealed its true appearance: this was specially given by the emperor Zhou Xiang at the ceremony when Duke Huan of Qi became a Hou Bo!
On the battlefield, everyone's eyes began to move with the resplendent cart and the Dragon Nine flags.
The wind came from the north, and on the hills, Zhao's light cavalry moved, and the flaming sun black bird specially gifted by Zhao Yang and the flag of the Pegasus stepping on the falcon, which represented the cavalry, flew fiercely. coming.
The group of thieves held their weapons and stood up vigilantly, but the robbers stopped them from moving.
"Xiao Sikou asked us to pass a message to the general!" The cavalry contempt for the group of thieves, but still dismounted and saluted. Boldly calling Roof Zhi a general, this is what Zhao Wuxi has specially instructed, and don't humiliate him before the battle.
After getting what Zhao Wuxi dictated, let's look at the situation on the battlefield. After thinking for a moment, Robber Zhi made up his mind. He turned around and yelled at the Onozawa hunters lying in the snow, "Get up!"
"We cooperate with Zhao Bing and attack the right side of Qi Army!"
"Help me fight the Qi army and capture the Marquis of Qi. Wu Xie is willing to keep you as a retainer of the Zhao clan, and with the talent of the king, willing to live in the corner of Daye Ze? Qianshiyi, Wanhu County, what a way!"
This was the final condition sent by Zhao Wuxi's cavalry, and it was also the last straw for Robber Zhi to finally choose a bargaining chip.
This promise is reassuring, but what makes the robber even more excited is Zhao Bing's aura that he is willing to cut his body and dare to pull the princes off his horse!
In the state of Jin the ministers, the three Huan of the state of Lu all retreated. Only this father and son created a miracle.
Prince and general, would you rather have a seed? That sentence probably means that.
Robber Zhi now hoped that when he approached the center of the Qi army, the dragon and nine banners were still there.
...
"Woo woo woo!" They were moving so fast, the wind blowing in their ears was so violent that it was hard to tell what was the sound of the wind and what was the sound of a horn.
Under the impact of the main force of Wu **** and Zhao clan, the Qi people's establishment gradually disintegrated.
"Two or three sons, to the east!"
Countless horses' hooves splashed mud and snow. Running forward, the knight above suddenly shook the reins, causing them to turn.
Zhao Wuxi attacked with five hundred cavalry and walked in a straight line from the west side of the Qi people. He steered eastward at what he thought was his best position, bypassing the lines that had been caught in the melee. The axis of their big rotation this time is naturally the chariot of the Marquis of Qi, and the conspicuous Dragon Nine banner that was exposed to the front of the Qi army due to the defeat of the Qi army!
The light cavalry took advantage of the retreat of the enemy's rear army, the middle was in chaos, and the huge crack was too late to rush in. Like a scorching hot blade, it cut through the ointment, cut into the left front of Qi Ren, and went straight to the heart.
A rain of arrows fell on their heads, and Zhao Wuxi couldn't tell where they came from. They were either blocked by shields and leather armor, or they found exposed flesh and pierced deeply. Zhao Wuxi raised the rattan shield, hid below, and urged the horses to move forward. Thankfully, due to the gloomy weather and his panic, the Qi archers lost their heads. Moreover, the attackers treated Zhao Bing and Qi troops equally, not only failed to stop the cavalry, but made their defenders embarrassed and abandoned their weapons.
After being caught in the crowd, Zhao Wuxi's own direction was also a little confused. He kept looking around in the crowd, looking for his target, moving towards the position in his memory, until a horned dragon pattern appeared again not far away.
The flag was groomed to be as bright and bright as the one on the Alliance of Kuiqiu more than a hundred years ago, but the colors on it were different, and the nine dragons with fangs and claws fled in a panic, with no momentum at all.
"Over there!" Zhao Wuxi was overjoyed, so they drove straight to the most important central position of the Qi army, and there were more than 400 cavalry left.
The elite guards of the Duke of Qi's office were near the Duke of Qi. Although more than half of them were scattered by the defeated troops, they could still organize to block them. So the battlefield was instantly reduced to a few feet around the mount, so that the long-range horse bow was no longer useful. The spear and the two-foot sword became the main means of combat, and every time it fell, blood splashed.
Wu Xie glimpsed a cavalry horse that fell to the ground and died, and the man jumped away; a valiant soldier was nailed to the spear of the Qi soldiers; his own horse kicked a rib trying to get close to the enemy. .
But what was more important was still the speed of the cavalry, who didn't even care about their fallen partners. "Forward, forward, forward", this was the order that Zhao Wuxi gave them, and Tian Ben followed closely behind with spear throwers, blocking anyone who wanted to come and block for the cavalry.
...
The people of Qi were completely panicked. Although the recruited civilians fled in embarrassment, the soldiers of the Gao clan and the soldiers of the Duke of Qi, who could have fought and retreated under the command of Gao Zhang, turned around and found that the direction of the lord had been breached.
Everyone subconsciously wanted to return to help, but Gao Zhang couldn't even get away from the attack of the military pawns and Zhao's main force. As for the right wing...
As the backhand arranged by Zhao Wuxi, Robber Zhi on the right has already moved, followed by Ran Qiu's five hundred mandarin ducks.
The group of thieves lined up in a messy formation to attack the right flank of the Qi people. Facing thousands of Qi people, they fell into a hard battle and could not move forward, and then there were faint signs of retreat, but then the mandarin ducks who came later quickly took it out. Qi people pressed back.
In a word, after surpassing the elites of the office with speed, only Qi Houna could no longer move forward in the crowd around Che Yu, and the palace guards of the Qi Kingdom still insisted that they formed a strict phalanx, which became the space between Zhao Wuxi and Qi Hou. The only obstacle.
The palace guards rushed over shouting "Death for the king", Zhao Wuxi saw the rider on his right shouting "Destiny Black Bird" and crashed into the erected spear, the bronze, leather and the neighing horse were mixed. group. Then Tian Ben and his soldiers threw away their short spears, pulled out their short swords and swarmed up, making a way for his lord...
But Zhao Wuxi couldn't care about this. They still had three hundred cavalry left, and the wedge-shaped formation kept galloping through the gap, passing through the red spear tip, through the terrified black eyes, Through the cold wind and snow. Sometimes horses fall and roll, sometimes people fall to the ground, sometimes torches spin in the air, and sometimes swords slash at flesh and blood. But Zhao Wuxi just held the horse tightly with one hand.
He was also covered in blood, and he couldn't tell whether it was his own or someone else's, but he knew that his goal was ahead:
The solitary island inlaid with gold and copper in the turbulent sea of blood!
Under the banner of Longjiu, on the chariot driven by the eight horses, he was covered in beautiful armor, holding a light Lu, and he was looking at the surrounding crown princes in horror.
Zhao Wuxi took a deep breath of the **** and chilly air, raised his spear high, and in excitement he forgot what Han Jue's ancient adage "Don't insult the king", and all the etiquette that belonged to this era, shouted loudly. , almost scare the opponent's soul away.
"The pestle and mortar!"
...
Two thousand years later, a mural was unearthed from Daliang City, which was deeply buried by the silt of the Yellow River.
The mural is 2 feet and 1 feet long and 1 feet and 6 feet high. It consists of 500,000 small porcelain blocks called "mosaics" in the land of Taixi. When the archaeologists brushed off the sand and sand that covered it, they couldn't help but be amazed.
Thanks to the great invention, the enamel that has not been damaged for thousands of years, the stripes and figures on this damaged fresco are still as bright and colorful as when they were first made.
It shows the last moment of the battle of the snowfield in the divided era called "Spring and Autumn". On the left is Zhao Wuxi, who has not yet become a prince. He is valiant, with no injuries or blood spots on his body. He is leading a companion cavalry with saddles and no stirrups to charge. The spear in his hand pierces a doctor of Qi who is fully armored.
On the right is Duke Qi Jing Lu, who is standing high on the chariot, and the palace guards around him with spears and halberds. And with an unbelievable expression, his charioteer, Limi, desperately waved his whip and drove the chariot to turn around and flee for his life...
In the lower right corner of the fresco, there is also a song from the Book of Poetry "Zhao Feng. Moon Black", which makes the writers of later generations have no idea what to do.
The moon and black geese flew high, and the Marquis of Qi fled in the night.
To chase away the light cavalry, the snow is full of bows and knives.
