Chapter 1197: Jiayuguan Falls

During the Ming Dynasty, there was no distinction between Gansu, Ningxia and Shaanxi, and the Ming Dynasty merged these three places into one administrative region, which was called the Shaanxi Chengxuan Political Envoy Division. Shaanxi is the northwest frontier of the Ming Dynasty, bordering Tatar in the north, facing the Western Regions in the west, so the deployment of heavy guards, local guards everywhere, the so-called nine-sided important towns, there are four in Shaanxi, namely Yulin Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town and Gansu Town, each town has a general soldier, if necessary, the imperial court will also send a governor to govern these border towns, such as the trilateral general system Yang Yiqing, on the two general system of the three sides.

If Shaanxi is the northwest frontier of the Ming Dynasty, then Gansu is the border of the border, especially Suzhou and Ganzhou, which are in the most dangerous border areas, the north is Tatar, the west and south are Turpan, and the southeast is the Yibra department, almost four bread sandwiches, and it is difficult to even take a breath.

And known as the world's first Xiongguan Jiayu Pass, is located in the middle of a canyon in the west of Suzhou City, the Great Wall of the two Chengguan passes through the Gobi, the north is connected to the Great Wall of Montenegro, the south is connected to the first pier in the world, it is called the throat of Hexi, it is the traffic fortress of the ancient Silk Road, and it is called the key of the lock.

Jiayuguan was built in the Ming Hongwu five years, by the inner city, the outer city, Luocheng, Wengcheng, the moat, and the Great Wall on both sides of the composition, the terrain is dangerous, the defense is tight, known as the world's first Xiongguan.

However, at this time, the world's first Xiongguan was actually breached, the moat was filled, the city gate was destroyed, the city was full of smoke, scattered arrows and weapons everywhere, corpses were all over the ground, bloodstained, it was simply miserable.

Rumble ......

Amid the thunderous sound of horses' hooves, a cavalry galloped from west to east to the outside of Jiayuguan City, and it was none other than the five thousand cavalry led by Xie Sangun and Yisana.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Xie Sangun couldn't help but be surprised, didn't he say that Jiayuguan was the first Xiongguan in the world? Why was it breached, and the defenders in the city ate white rice?

At this time, the city was in flames, and there were faint sounds of killing and fighting, and the battle was obviously not over, and it was estimated that it was in the stage of street fighting. At that moment, Xie Sangun no longer hesitated, and with an order, all the five thousand horsemen dismounted, raised their knives and went to the city to kill. Since the streets were narrow and not suitable for horseback riding, foot combat was obviously more advantageous.

Xie Sangun took the lead and led 5,000 brothers to enter through the destroyed city gate, but he saw that the city was in a mess, corpses were piled up all over the ground, some of them had been burned black, and the air was still filled with the smell of sulfur and fire oil, which showed the fierceness of this battle. After passing through the city, it is the outer city, and the streets are also in a mess, and some buildings are burning.

"Look, Lord Chief!" One of the soldiers suddenly pointed to a burning building at the end of the street with a sad expression.

Xie Sangun raised his eyes and looked, his eyes were cracked in an instant, and the green tendons on his neck rose up, it was anger that rose from his heart, and evil stretched out to his guts!

I saw that the burning building was the guerrilla general's mansion in Jiayuguan, and a "Beijing view" was clearly piled up in front of the gate of the general's mansion.

The so-called Jingguan is a hill built with human heads, in order to deter the enemy, and at the same time boast of their own combat power and military merits, this kind of thing, the United States people during World War II also did, but they used the helmet of the Japanese army to replace the head.

At this time, the Jingguan standing in front of the guerrilla general's mansion is a real human head, and the blood stains on it have not yet dried, and the bloody hideous human heads are built into a pyramid shape nearly two meters high, which is terrifying.

However, at this moment, all the Ming troops, including Xie Sangun, did not have the slightest fear, and some were just endless anger, because it could be seen that these were the heads of the defenders in Jiayu Pass, and they were their robes!

"Kill!" Xie Sangun roared and rushed towards the inner city like an angry beast, and the five thousand brothers followed closely with the same hatred and rage.

The battle in the inner city is not over, and a group of Turpan soldiers is searching for the remnants of the city's defenders. A Turpan soldier of about 30 people met Xie Sangun and others head-on, they were in a trance at first, and then they rushed over with a shouting knife, probably also carried away by the victory, and regarded Xie Sangun and others as lambs.

Xie Sangun grinned and showed a cruel smile, one accelerated to meet it, the waist knife in his hand flashed out with lightning, and at the same time flew up with a kick, the knife light passed, and the head of the Turpan soldier was split on the spot, and the headless corpse was also kicked out, knocking another Turpan soldier behind him to the ground.

Bang bang bang......

The personal soldiers behind Xie Sangun pulled the plate machine, and the remaining dozens of Turpan soldiers were all overturned in an instant.

Xie San's guns were bloody, and when he waved his hand murderously, the five thousand brothers scattered into the streets and alleys with a team of 100 people, killing those Turpan soldiers everywhere, and the gunfire came and went one after another in an instant.

Then to Xie Sangun's surprise, there were not many Turpan soldiers in the city, and there were only hundreds, so the battle ended quickly, so that Pei Xingjin, the general soldier of Yulin who came later, didn't even have a chance to make a move.

"Strange, as far as I know, there are at least 2,000 guerrilla generals stationed in Jiayuguan, how can they be broken by such a small number of Turpan people?" Pei Lao was puzzled.

Isana said disapprerovingly: "What's so strange about this, maybe it's a traitor." ”

Xie Sangun shook his head and said: "I don't know if there is a traitor, but judging from the traces along the way, Turpan dispatched no less than 20,000 troops this time." ”

Pei Xingjin's heart moved, and he blurted out: "Will the main force of Turpan have already crossed the Jiayu Pass and attacked Suzhou and Ganzhou?" ”

Xie Sangun nodded and said, "There is a possibility." ”

As soon as Xie Sangun's words came down, he saw a hundred households under his command leading a group of people over, there were a total of twelve people in this group, they looked miserable, the leader was wearing a cyan official robe, about thirty years old, he turned out to be a civil official, and the remaining eleven people were all soldiers wearing mandarin duck battle jackets.

"Lord Commander, find twelve alive." Baihu walked to Xie Sangun and reported the salute.

The civil official was covered in blood at the moment, and his official robe was almost dressed as a beggar, and half of his sleeves fell off, revealing a white but strong arm, and he was still carrying a blood-stained waist knife in his hand.

Judging from the official robe, it was no longer possible to distinguish the rank of this civil official, he stood in front of Xie Sangun without humility or arrogance, first handed the waist knife to a soldier behind him, and then hugged his fists and said: "Dare to ask what the two generals are called?" ”

Pei Lao ruffian squinted his eyes and looked up and down at this civil official, looking like an old god was there, because the person in front of him was wearing a cyan official uniform, and he expected that the official position would not be too high, and the top of the sky would be five grades, but the rank of the chief soldier was a second-grade military attachΓ©.

After all, Xie Sangun is young, and he doesn't have that heavy bureaucratic atmosphere in his bones, plus his brother-in-law is also a civil official, so he has no antagonism towards civil officials, not to mention that the civil official in front of him dares to use a knife to cut against the Turpan people, obviously he is not a sour Confucian who is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he politely bowed his hand and saluted: "This general is Xie Sangun, the acting chief soldier of Jizhou Town, and this is Pei Xingjin, the chief soldier of Yulin." ”

The civil official couldn't help but be taken aback, there were two general soldiers suddenly in this Jiayu Pass, forget about the general soldiers of Yulin, why did the general soldiers of Jizhou seven or eight thousand miles away also come, isn't this a joke? Or are you dreaming?

The civil official arched his hand suspiciously: "It turned out to be General Xie and General Pei, and the next official is Huang Dacan, who was sentenced to Suzhou by Suzhou, I don't know why the two general soldiers are here?" ”
