Chapter 295: Not that simple (2)
Jiang Xu took the troops away...
However, the soldiers guarding the city on the mountain were still lazily baking fire on the city gate tower, watching the brigade disappear in the snowy night.
No wonder, how could hundreds of defeated soldiers with their families be Jiang Xu's opponent?
Jiang Xu did not say who he was going to attack, but only said that it was a group of defeated soldiers... No wonder he did this. Dong Qi had too high prestige in Liangzhou and Hanyang was close to Longxi County. He was really afraid that he would not be able to control the situation at that time.
It was late at night, dark clouds rolled and the snow became heavier.
At the foot of the Shangqian city wall, more than a dozen black shadows suddenly appeared. Standing in the dead corners that could not be covered by the eyes of the patrol troops in the city, they threw four or five meters long ropes towards the top of the city. Then they heard the light sound of Gaden, and the black shadow immediately clinged to the corner of the wall.
The cold wind that shouted and called out covered the slight sound.
There was no movement on the top of the city. After waiting for a while, the dozen or so black shadows suddenly exerted force at the same time, and they flexibly climbed the city as if they were stepping on the wall like monkeys. These people were all wearing white snow cloaks and stuck to the wall, which was integrated with the city wall. A team of patrol soldiers passed by, and the black shadow stopped climbing immediately.
"With such heavy snow, Lord Jiang suppressed what bandits... What bandits would you say?"
The speaker has a strong accent.
"Xiaoqi, don't meddle in other people's business. Adults have their own opinions. Isn't this for us to go to the whole place?"
"I think it's for his own good... Uncle Hou, do you think it's..."
"What is it? Don't talk nonsense, be careful to lose your head. These things have nothing to do with us, do whatever we should do... Damn it, it's cold and cold, what kind of city is patrolling? Could it be that four or five hundred people want to attack the city?"
The patrol soldiers left cursingly!
The black shadow moved for a moment and climbed up again.
In a short while, these dozen black shadows jumped onto the top of the city.
Following the horse road, I just passed the corner and saw a team of patrol soldiers coming towards me.
The two sides were only a dozen steps away, and there were about fifty patrol soldiers. When they saw the man in white, they were also stunned.
Just as he was about to shout, the man in white escaped from the snow cloak and pointed it at the patrol soldiers. There was a fierce crossbow arrow. The screams echoed in the night sky, and the howling cold wind appeared and appeared faintly, like a ghost crying and howling wolf.
The patrol soldiers were surprised to find that these white-clothed men could actually fire the crossbows.
At twenty steps, the iron crossbow arrow was extremely powerful and could penetrate the armor and directly take his life. The most deadly thing was that these crossbow arrows seemed to be stained with extremely fierce poison. As long as they were scratched, they would soon be paralyzed and they could not even make a sound.
However, the screams finally alarmed the soldiers on the city gate.
When someone saw this scene, he was stunned at first, and immediately shouted in horror: "The enemy attacks, the enemy attacks..."
The man in white no longer hesitated when he saw that his whereabouts were exposed.
After throwing off the snow cloak, all of them were cowhide copper nails and sleeve armor, crossbow arrows in one hand and horizontal knife in the other hand, and rushed towards the city gate tower.
It was cold and the ground was slippery on the top of the city.
But these men in white were not affected at all and rushed towards the Shangzhi Army in big strides.
The two officers dressed as men, carrying weapons, ran up and said, "Don't panic, there are few people, kill them, kill them!"
This shout immediately made the panicked defender react, and rushed towards the people with weapons.
The man in white in the head masked his face with white cloth, only revealing his eyes, nose and mouth. He pulled out a short spear like a sword from the snow buckle, a strange-shaped short halberd about six feet long. Why is it said to be a strange-shaped? The short halberd's ears are not like the branches of the halberd, but a crescent-shaped shovel made of fine iron. This halberd cannot use tricks such as hanging and locking, but to some extent, it increases the force of chopping, just like a double-edged short axe.
The man is more than a meter tall, with wide arms and round waists.
I don’t know what I tied to the thin-soled fast boots, but to a large extent, it solved the problem of slippery ground.
He strode forward, suddenly lifted the crescent halberd in his hands, and then cracked the weapons of the two men's weapons.
The left hand spear was as fast as lightning, and it stabbed out with a flash, with a slight shadow piercing through an officer's chest. He didn't see any pulling it out, and his feet were steadily stroking like flying, and he flew past the officer, and with his backhand pulled out the short spear, using a sword-like move, and stroking it gently, rushing over to another man.
A slight blood mark appeared on the neck, and blood mist sprayed out.
Uncle Men couldn't figure out whether this big man's weapon was a spear or a sword?
"Gan Ben is here. Whoever dares not let me make me a contribution will be torn to anyone!"
The big man's voice was like a huge thunder, exploding on the top of the city. The crescent halberd was waving, and the green spear burst out cold electricity. One after another, strange cold light appeared among the crowd, sometimes straight and sometimes with arcs. Wherever the big man passed, it was like entering a no-man's land, and he could only kill the city guards' flesh and blood flying across the city.
If Gan Ben is a tiger, then the dozen people following him are simply a group of wolves.
The horizontal sword was cold and slashed left and right. Although it was made of Western Regions' fine iron, it could not be said to be a magic weapon, but it could cut iron like mud. The weapons of the city guards were originally not excellent. The cold light flashed by, cutting off the weapons of the city guards, and then slashed at the people. There were only three moves, sweeping across thousands of troops, cutting down the Huashan Mountain, and stepping into the knife... But these three moves killed hundreds of city guards and fleeing everywhere, and they could not resist it at all.
"Tiger, stop killing me, hurry up and get out the whistle!"
"Ah, I almost forgot..."
Gan Ben flew a soldier out, inserted the Qingfeng spear into the corpse, and took out a whistle and sound arrow from his waist.
The sharp whistle echoed on the top of the city.
Several men in white who rushed down the city wall removed the door bolt and opened the city gate with force.
As the whistle sounded, hundreds of figures of white snow cloaks suddenly emerged from the snowy field in the city. The leader raised his sword and shouted loudly: "Beiwei Army, rush in..."
In an instant, there were shouts of killing everywhere, and the soldiers from Beiwei rushed towards the city gate.
The defending army quickly stopped the resistance, but at this moment, Gan Ben roared on the top of the city: "I am under the command of the General of the Cavalry. You will put down your weapons and surrender immediately. Otherwise, as soon as the Martial Martial Arts arrived, you will all die."
General of the Cavalry, Marquis of Wugong?
The more than a thousand people guarding the city were stunned when they heard this.
Qu Yixin said: You talk to them about the lord’s official position, they know nothing about it...
He shouted loudly: "I am Qu Yi, the general of the Beiwei Army under Dong Killing God. If you don't surrender yet, when will you wait?"
Dong Killing God? Dong Qiong...
The defending army understood this time, and the Dong family has returned!
Fight, or not?
The answer soon emerged.
Hundreds of city guards threw away their weapons and shouted: "We are the garrison of Liangzhou, and we are willing to surrender."
Gan Ben widened his eyes and looked at the soldiers who were kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
Why is the name of the landlord so powerful? He only shouted "Dong Killing God" and these defenders surrendered?
Grandma, how should I calculate my military merits?
Dong Qi's reputation is indeed very famous, it is a bad reputation established by killing more than 100,000 people.
Furthermore, a large part of the Shangji defending army came from the Longxi soldiers. After Niu Fu died, the Longxi army immediately collapsed.
Ma Teng and Zhang Miao took the opportunity to absorb him and took him under his command.
Speaking of which, half of the current soldiers and horses of Zhang and Ma came from the soldiers left by Niu Fu. Now that Dong Qi has returned, the Longxi army immediately stopped resisting. Others don’t know Dong Qi’s power, but the people of the Longxi army are very clear.
Of course, under the same circumstances, if you switch to another place, this may not necessarily happen.
The Dong family operated Lintao for three generations, and the accumulated reputation was not something that Zhang and Ma could erase in a short while.
Qu Yi ordered people to gather the surrendered troops and then join Gan Ben.
Gan Ben scratched his head and looked at Qu Yi and said, "Sir, what should we do next?"
Qu Yi smiled, turned his head and looked towards the direction of Shohu Valley, and said softly: "Don't be anxious, how can the lord's plan be so simple? Let's rest here and wait for the lord to come back... Tiger, don't worry, how can you lose military achievements with your lord? Hehe, this time you open the city gate to Wunan Mountain and be the first to be the master. When you arrive in Zhangye, I think you can at least be a lieutenant."
"Uncle Captain? What kind of military merit title is that?"
Gan Ben's idea was very simple, he wanted the military title. As for the official position that Qu Yi mentioned, he still hasn't understood it.
Qu Yi rolled his eyes and was about to explain.
But a man from the front of the Wei Wei pointed to the distance and shouted loudly: "Look, it's a fire, it's a fire in the direction of the Huhu Valley!"
Gan Ben turned his head and saw that the sky was full of red.
His eyes couldn't help but lit up, and he patted Qu Yi on the shoulder, shouting excitedly: "Yes, it's Shooting Hu Valley."
He didn't think about how much strength he had in his hands. He slapped Qu Yi and rolled his eyes.
However, I was still very excited. In this way, I would take all the money to get my hands on it!
*******
Jiang Xu was as anxious as a dog who was stranded at this time.
After walking 5,000 people and snow, he arrived at the Shehu Valley after a rapid journey.
From a distance, you can see the smoke from cooking fires floating out of the valley, and the strong smell of rice. It is obvious that the enemy is cooking.
I couldn't help but feel excited: Now that I'm going to kill the general, I will definitely win a great victory.
Thinking of this, he immediately took off his big gun and pointed at the Shooting Hugu, "My sons, follow me to the Shooting Hugu."
After saying that, he rode his horse and rushed into the valley.
But he didn't notice that the scout who had reported the news to him seemed to be running forward, but the speed was extremely slow and gradually fell to the end.
Jiang Xu took the lead and rushed into the Shohu Valley with his men.
But unexpectedly, I found that the valley was empty and there was no one. There were dry hay branches piled up in the valley, and the marching stove made of hundreds of stones, with flames raging. There was a rice cooker on the fire, and there was still food boiling inside, but there was no enemy.
