Chapter 51 Breaking the Qiang
Poor, these Qiang people can't even smelte iron, and they use a variety of weapons. The better ones have swords and guns snatched from the Han army, and the less they are the bronze weapons they got from somewhere.
Even worse, there are stones and bone weapons!
As for armor, it’s good to wear simple leather armor! Most people only wear leather robes.
In addition, the Han soldiers were tall and big, had enough food and were well trained, and they were far superior to these Qiang people in terms of height and strength. The saying that the Han Dynasty was the Five Barbarians was not just a saying!
In the later words, why are there so many sayings such as good men, strong men, and men? Of course, it is because the Han family is strong enough!
Many people think that nomads eat meat every day, which is taller and stronger than the Han people... In fact, it is taken for granted.
In fact, the pigs slaughtered without meat. The Qiang people who herded sheep did not eat either...
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, when productivity was much more developed, ordinary herders rarely killed sheep a few times a year. This was an important tool of production, who would be willing to kill and eat it?
Not to mention this era, various animal husbandry and other eras with worse technology. In fact, most of these Qiang people usually use dairy products to fill their stomachs. It is not uncommon to go hungry in many cases!
Therefore, these Qiang people are actually far inferior to the Han army in terms of physical strength.
In the future, as the level of civilization deepens and the organizational strength decreases, the Han people gradually become weaker...
In fact, this is not just the East. It is like this in ancient civilizations in history. It has been too long and its blood and courage has been slowly eroded.
For example, how brave and brave were the Anglo-German barbarians when they were sailing around the world? However, the descendants enjoyed the benefits for too long and began to worry about some messy things. What's wrong with their ancestors is almost the same!
This Han Dynasty was still a teenager of Middle-earth civilization, with passion, recklessness, impulsiveness, bravery, domineering...
One Han is the Five Barbarians!
Therefore, when facing the charge led by Sun Jian, the men who were already tired of Jiangdong Menghu, how could the Qiang people resist it? They collapsed immediately.
Those who were killed began to flee in panic and riots quickly expanded.
In addition, drums were heard from the camps on the mountain, and the Han army on the mountain was also preparing to go down the mountain to attack.
The Qiang people collapsed and fled one after another. The Qiang people inside were all strong. As soon as they ran away, the weak and the weak on the outside even helped the weak and the elderly and the weak. They even cried and called their parents to escape.
For a time, the mountains and fields were filled with escaped Qiang people, pushing, trampling, rolling and creeping down the hillside, all kinds of things were different.
At this time, what the Han army had to do was to keep chasing and killing them, not to calm down these Qiang people, and to make them panic and run away. Then they kept killing from behind!
By the time it was dark, Zheng Xiaoming had already sat in Zhong Qianghao's "mansion". As for the head of Zhong Qianghao, it was already hanging outside the gate of the Zhong Qianghao's village!
Teams of prisoners lined up, and were escorted by the Han army honestly, and were gathered in the open space before the Qiang people's temple.
This was originally a place where the Qiang people gathered, but now it has become a place where they and their captives were placed.
As for the ancestor spirit worshipped by the Qiang people, they hid in the temple tremblingly, and did not dare to make any noise.
Originally, this guy was planning to create a storm and give the Qiang people under his protection a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, when Zheng Xiaoming looked at him, the ancestor spirit was so scared that he was so timid that he didn't dare to move around!
"General! There has not been any inventory yet, but in this battle, we beheaded the heads of three thousand Qiang people. The captives of more than 20,000 Qiang people!
Only a part of Touwu Qiang escaped…”
A military officer named Yin Yu was very happy at this moment and said to Zheng Xiaoming with admiration.
This person is a side branch of the Yin clan of Nanyang. Many people in the Zheng clan of Nanyang have joined Zheng Xiaoming's army. Although this person is a side branch, he has been to school, studied, and can write and calculate, so he was appointed as a military officer by Zheng Xiaoming.
Now Zheng Xiaoming has many officers with the surname Zheng and many officers with the surname Yin!
It wasn't Zheng Xiaoming who deliberately refused to let the Yin family take control of military power... It was because the descendants of the 28 generals of Yuntai who followed Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu to conquer the world early on, abandoned literature and martial arts, and transformed from military merits to classical scholars.
This is also a large part of the reason why the old surnames in Nanyang were almost silent in the original time and space history!
Although there are many gentry in Yingchuan, Runan, next door, and the classics are prosperous, they also attach great importance to practical learning to save the world, so many talents from various families emerged, shining brightly, and left a great reputation in history...
Of course, there is a greater possibility that they followed the right person!
Just like Emperor Gaozu of Han was born in a wealthy family, and once he gained power, he soared in the sky. Many of the rich people were originally just small officials and dog slaughterers, etc., all of them became founding generals and ministers of the Han Dynasty and were famous in future generations.
This old surname in Nanyang was finally lost in history. It did not even have a single drift in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms. There is still a very high possibility that they followed the wrong boss...
Of course, even if Zheng Xiaoming was able to communicate with Tian at this time, he could only know what had been released. He would not know what had not happened!
In short, facing Yin Yu's joy, Zheng Xiaoming forced a smile, but his expression was not very happy, but instead a little gloomy.
Originally, the Qiang and Hu rebels lost a lot at Meiyang City, and even Beigongbi was beheaded. The Qiang and Hu rebels were originally mobs, and in theory, there should be no threat.
The general Zhou Shen and Yuan Pang, the Jinwu, obviously went to get the credit!
It’s no wonder that Dong Zhuo and Zhang Wen broke up in the end. Zhang Wen left such a good thing to Zhou Shen and Yuan Pang, but instructed Dong Zhuo to Hanyang County to clean up the Qiang people. This was obviously not a single contribution to Dong Zhuo!
Of course, Zheng Xiaoming didn't know. In the original history, Dong Zhuo also had a falling out with Zhang Wen because of this incident.
Although Zheng Xiaoming did not kill Beigong Boyu in the original historical time and space, there were meteorites falling from the sky, which scared Liangzhou Qianghu to retreat in panic.
However, Dong Zhuo and other troops seized the opportunity to attack and killed Liangzhou Qiang and Hu.
However, when pursuing the rebels and regaining Jincheng County, Zhang Wen still sent Dong Zhuo to Hanyang County, and sent Zhou Shen to attack Jincheng... It was also not giving Dong Zhuo a chance to make meritorious contributions.
The two turned against each other. Later, Dong Zhuo took the lead and found an opportunity to kill Zhang Wen!
In short, everyone thought that they would hold hands when pursuing the main force of the rebels and regaining Jincheng County.
But no one expected that the final thing would go wrong. Zhou Shen and Yuan Pang were wiped out in Jincheng County and died at the same time...
Chapter completed!
