Chapter 302 Grab!
It was raining heavily, but this could not eliminate the anger in Agui's heart.
The fleeing tribe members told him that the despicable and shameless Chang Diao tortured all tribe members one by one, and refused to give up any property. He had never seen such a greedy and tyrannical person in his life. It was so terrifying.
The Qiang people who were invited by Agui to help were also indignant when they heard about this.
After more than 20 years of chaos in Liangzhou, the Qiang and Di people have become a climate. The imperial court has to appease them no matter who comes. This time someone actually let go of the plunder as soon as they come. This has touched their reverse scales and made them completely unbearable.
So this time Agui called out, and the nearby Qiang tribes were dispatched in full swing, even calling friends to call out Qiang people from further afield.
This time, we want to let these Central Plains people see who is the master of Liangzhou. We Qiang Di finally stood firm in Liangzhou. How can we let these Central Plains people occupy the hot land of Liangzhou again?
They expected that Chang Diao would be fearless to commit such atrocities. In order to intimidate the general of Zhenxi as much as possible, the surrounding Qiang and Hu tribes were dispatched from all over the country this time. Many tribes also received news that they quickly approached from a distance. The terrifying elites gathered in the border of Changli River for a moment. The endless tent alone was enough to make people scare themselves.
Unfortunately, these days are the time when the rain is the most.
The climate in the Han Dynasty was much milder than later generations. There were a large number of military farms in the Loulan area of the Western Regions, and Liangzhou had a lot of precipitation in recent years. During the rainy season, the water level of Changli River soared in the downpours and rainstorms, and there was already a faint flooding trend. This made Agui and others dare not cross the river for a while, and could only jump on the other side of the river and curse loudly.
Everyone knew Agui's anxiety, and they persuaded Agui to calm down and not to fall into Chang Diao's tricks.
"I have heard of the military tactics of the Central Plains before. They said that when crossing the river, they either attack halfway or attack before our army even arrived ashore. I have long heard that the Chang Diao Dog Thief is cunning and easy to plot. This time, there must be arrangements. I still have to be careful."
Agui was extremely angry and sneered:
"What are you careful? They only have ten thousand people, how many ferry crossings can they guard? As long as we cross the river from four ferries upstream and downstream, if these thieves divide their troops, they will surely die. If you are afraid, wait here. If you are not afraid, just follow me to cross the river!"
"What's this? Agui, I'll help you, because of your brother's loyalty. It's too hurtful for you to say such words. No wonder Ma Mengqi is angry with you!"
Agui snorted in disappointment, feeling that it was quite unwise to offend Ma Chao before.
Well, I heard that Ma Mengqi and this Chang Diao have a deep hatred. When I catch Chang Diao and give his head to Ma Mengqi, I should be able to resolve the previous resentment.
Thinking of this, Agui breathed a little relieved.
"When the rain stops, cross the river immediately, and there must be no delay!"
The Chang Diao Army is now in chaos.
So many enemies attacked far exceeding Chang Diao's imagination. He dared not escape by water now, so he could only hurry west and try to hide in Longshan.
But they had loaded a large amount of grain on ships before. When they heard that they were leaving, everyone looked at each other and refused to abandon so much supplies and escape.
Chang Diao ignored it and ordered his soldiers to bring only food and abandon all the remaining jewelry, and hide in Longshan first with light clothes.
Everyone was depressed, but they didn't dare to refuse at all. They could only set up camp and throw away the property they had finally robbed before.
Chang Diao wanted to cry but no tears. He thought that he could make a fortune this time, and even if he abandoned Yunshan, he could use money to atone for his sins and enjoy his life. However, he did not expect that these Qianghu had so many ferries, which made him forced to abandon the property he had finally robbed before. Even the few night pearls carefully prepared for him were forced to abandon them in the mud. Bringing more food on the way to escape would make him more life. Night pearls could not eat or drink. Chang Diao, who had rich experience in escaping, was still very clear about this.
When Lu Hong saw Chang Diao looking sobbing, he was also very surprised. He thought to himself that Junshi Chang really failed to predict this time and was really powerless to turn things around?
In desperation, he could only throw away most of the spices he had accumulated before, and only brought a small bag of agarwood, and helplessly commanded the soldiers to retreat.
Such a large-scale withdrawal of troops will definitely not be hidden from the eyes of Agui on the other side.
Seeing that Chang Diao Army had begun to retreat, Agui's mood, which had already calmed down, became anxious again. He stood by the water with his hands behind his back and walked around. Seeing that the river water was still rising sharply, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Don't worry, cross the river!"
At this order of Agui, several Qiang leaders looked at each other and quickly persuaded him not to do so.
The river water in Changlichuan is rising higher and higher, and is about to flood. Crossing the river is now a very dangerous thing.
But Agui's face was cold and said in a cold voice:
"You also say that it is about to flood. If I don't cross the river to pursue and the thieves plunder and retreat, wouldn't I have to sit there and watch them escape? If he is let go, how can I stay here in the future?
Humph, what's there to be afraid of? I, Agui, have lived here for decades and have long been familiar with the hydrology of this place. It's flooding and there will be a day or two. As long as I catch up with you immediately after crossing the river, who can stop these dog thieves?"
Agui still has a lot of prestige in this area. He experiences flooding once or twice a year and knows what the current surge looks like.
Even if the rain falls, it will take one or two days to flood. As long as you chase it quickly and you will not be in danger of breaking out of the floodplain area.
The premise is to make a quick decision!
The generals under Agui were unable to bear it for a long time. At Agui's order, they quickly crossed the river without even taking supplies, swearing to tear Chang Diao apart.
The Qiang tribes who came to help the battle had no choice but to cross the river one after another. For a while, the figures of ferries were everywhere on the river, and the scene was spectacular!
Because of heavy rain in the sky, the wheels of the carriage were trapped into the soil, making it difficult for even food and grass to operate.
Seeing that the Qiang and Di coalition had already begun the general attack, everyone was forced to give up the food and grass one by one. They were lucky enough to abandon the precious jade they had stolen, but now the food trucks were about to abandon it, so they could only bear the pain of putting the jade on the ground, trying to keep the food in their arms, and take it away in the mud.
This time they were really anxious like a dog that was strayed and panic like a fish that was leaking the net. They knew that if they escaped a little slowly, they would be caught and were skinned. Many people couldn't help but burst into tears. The loud cry even covered the dense rain, which greatly boosted the morale of the Qiang and Di coalition forces crossing the river.
"Okay, these thieves are already scared. Men, follow me to fight!"
Agui's eyes were red.
These rats actually dare to invade my hometown. When I kill you all, we must let Ma Chao take us to kill all the Guanzhong and take revenge, kill all of you dogs and things one by one to vent your anger!
Driven by the obsession with revenge, the Qiang and Di coalition forces attacked rapidly, and the Chang Diao Army had no intention of half-crossing attack at all, allowing them to return to Xingguo without any stagnation.
Agui's tribe has been operating in Xingguo for many years, opened up a large amount of fertile land, and obtained a lot of wealth by robbing merchants on the Silk Road, which is a paradise.
But when they arrived here, they were completely stunned by the scene here.
The fields they had run for many years were trampled by the war horses of the Chang Diao Army, and almost all the houses of all sizes were burned down. They were ruined everywhere, and the ground was covered with abandoned gold, silver, jewelry and cloth.
Agui once made his fortune by robbing merchants from the Western Regions. He has seen such a cruel scene before, but this is the first time it fell on his head.
"Father! Mother!"
The soldiers under Agui army were not mentally prepared, but after crossing the river, they saw that the home he had been running for many years had become like this, they couldn't help but burst into tears and searched for their relatives and young people. Agui was also stunned and came to his senses a little, and quickly searched for his relatives among the ruins around him.
The Qiang people who followed up logging in were stunned when they saw the golden beads all over the ground.
They just heard that there were many more people in Xingguo before, but they didn't expect there were so many.
In the Liangzhou was in chaos, they gathered together to plunder and plunder the passing merchants. The Silk Road was almost cut off. There were very few merchants from the Western Regions in recent years. They had not seen so many gold, silver and jewelry for many years.
Seeing that Agui and others were all going to the city to find their families, these Qiang people quickly searched on the spot.
But in this way, they immediately had a great conflict.
They were originally a loose coalition of more than a dozen tribes. They were able to attack together before, but now they have seen so many spoils, and whoever takes more and whoever takes less is a very difficult problem.
I clearly saw this entry first, why do you rob it?
We obviously got this spice first, why should you exchange it with me?
And this carriage - you will definitely not be able to take away so much food by yourself. There are many people in our tribe, so it's just right to move it away for you.
These Qiang troops fought continuously, and the Di people under Agui were immediately furious.
"What are you doing? These are ours! They are ours! Let us go!"
The soldiers under Agui were already immersed in the great pain of losing their relatives. Seeing that their allies were coming to grab their own money first, they were furious and rushed up with a roar and waved their spears, calling on the Qiang people to get out of here.
The Qiang people knew that they were in the wrong, so they took a few steps back, but in a flash they rushed up unyieldingly.
"Hey, what you said is yours is yours? This is obviously Chang Diao flew from everywhere, why can't we take it?"
"Yes, you said it's yours, and there is a name on it. Will it agree to it if you call it?"
"Damn it, you are making trouble!"
"You are making trouble!"
The Qiang and Di coalition forces, who had been united in the same hatred of the enemy, immediately turned red and took out spears to confront each other. Agui was originally an impatient temper. When he saw a group of allies crossing the river, he was about to rob his own things, he was immediately furious.
He drew his sword in his hand, pointed at everyone and shouted:
Chapter completed!
