Chapter 62: Surrender
When Qiang Bar rushed to the mouth of the valley with his people, the Jingqiang people after the two thousand guards had already been disabled.
Tuduo saw that there were few Jingqiang people after the protection, so he rushed to the valley mouth with the people of Le Sister Qiang. It just so happened that Qiang Bar had just arrived at the valley with his men and horses, and the two houses of men and horses fought at the valley mouth.
The goshawk with a large number of villagers then rushed over, and by this time the sun had risen. The fog in the valley has thinned out under the winter sun.
The villagers drew their bows and arrows and shot at the Jingqiang warriors who poured out of the valley. The Jingqiang people thought that they were dealing with Le Jieqiang's woman, and they didn't carry a shield at all. Armor is even more legendary to them, and even the strong bar can't make up a set of armor.
The three-edged arrow was ruthlessly pierced into the body of the Jingqiang warrior, making a dull "poof" and "poof" sound. The warriors of the Jingqiang tribe were shot over as if they were cutting wheat. Some samurai tried to fight back with Udo, but the range of this thing was not comparable to that of a crossbow.
The goshawk shoots specifically at the guys who take out the udoo, as long as the guy with the udoo appears in his eyes. The next moment, a feathered arrow would shoot through his chest accurately. On the blow of the rain of arrows, the Jingqiang people in Taniguchi were quickly killed and wounded.
There are fewer and fewer Jingqiang people in the front row, and Le Sister Qiang's people gradually occupy the advantage of being more numerous. Moreover, the people in front of Le Sister Qiang Chong were all armed with iron weapons, and the Jingqiang people with iron weapons were still far away in the valley two miles away and did not rush back.
The number of people is small, and the weapons are at a loss. Even the most courageous warriors will only end in defeat.
Qiang Bar reluctantly led the clansmen to retreat into the valley, and Le Sister Qiang's people chased after Xiang Yonghe together. On the way, the Jingqiang people organized several rice charges. Intending to defeat Le Jieqiang's people, he rushed out of the valley and escaped with this chaotic army.
But every counterattack was shot back by a rain of arrows like a storm. The goshawk led the villagers to press the formation behind, and the tiger and the women of Sister Le Qiang rushed forward.
This combination is like a huge meat grinder, mercilessly strangling the lives of the Jingqiang people. Almost every step forward is a march on the corpse of the Jingqiang people. The blood on the ground gradually condensed into ice, and it was black and spread a layer on the ground. It's sticky to step on, and if you accidentally fall and fall down, you'll be stuck all over your body.
Yun Xiao leaned back in the carriage with a telescope in his hand. handed the telescope in his hand to Dai Yu, who was supported by someone, and pointed to the scene below: "Do you see it?" This is the complete strategy of using the terrain to select the right military formation. If I were in command, I would have ordered the Tiger to withdraw and strengthen the bow and crossbow camp. Let Sister Le Qiang's women stand in front. It doesn't matter what kind of weapon the other side has. We all have casualties.
In the future, you must remember that you must not let your brothers sacrifice meaninglessly because of your own likes and dislikes. A great man once said that this is what a good commander should do to fight the enemy and save himself. ”
"Master Xie instructed, Dai Yu has been taught."
Dai Yu also held a telescope and looked at the scene below. The scene was nothing short of a one-sided massacre. As long as the Jingqiang people rush out. will be mercilessly shot by the crossbow. The two-mile road was already paved with corpses. It is estimated that there are as many as three or two thousand. In some cramped places, Tudo even had to have the corpses removed before he could move on.
It has to be said that this is an efficient kill combo as the end of the valley gets closer and closer. I am afraid that the number of corpses will gradually increase.
"Order Canghu. If the Jingqiang people surrender and accept it immediately, there must be no mistake. ”
"Master Hou, this ...... I'm afraid the tiger will ......," Dai Yu hesitated.
"A good general must judge the situation, and it is impossible for the goshawk's arrows to kill all those Qiang people. As I said, casualties in hand-to-hand combat are the most difficult to avoid. I don't want another columbarium to appear in the ancestral hall.
Besides, who said we can't kill after surrendering? ”
Yun Xiao glanced at Dai Yu, and he was a dead eye. Not all kidnappers collect money and release people, and some kidnappers who have no professional ethics often collect money and tear up tickets. Yun Xiao felt that he had no work ethic.
Qiangba was about to hold on to it, and he was hit by an arrow in the thigh. Now he can only run backwards with the support of the guards, and the more he runs backwards, the more desperate he becomes. It's over, it's over. He knew that there was a dead end inside, and had already organized several counter-charges. But the more he rushed, the more his team squeezed inward.
Ahead is the end of the valley, and soon there will be no way back. At this time, I really think that this valley will never end.
"Leader, what should I do if there is a cliff ahead. We can't just turn into birds and fly out, right? ”
One of the leaders of his tribe said eagerly to Qiang, and the panic in his heart had made him careless about etiquette.
Because of the excessive blood loss, Qiangba's face was as white as snow on the ground. There was another scream not far away, and it seemed that Sister Le Qiang's people were taking another step closer. Damn, I didn't expect these girls to be entangled with those devil-like Han people. No wonder they had the audacity to attack their own tribe. Now that I am in the dead land, I am afraid that there is only one way to surrender. His clansmen don't care for the time being, if they are willing to pay the ransom, they should be able to save their lives.
"Strong, leader, what should we do, they attacked." Another tribal leader also said urgently.
"Send someone to shout to Tudo, we are willing to surrender. As long as they guarantee our lives, we are willing to give our possessions and sheep and cattle. "Qiang, a little helpless.
Fighting on the steppe, the victorious side can demand a ransom from the losing side. It was used to ransom the lives of the captives, usually as long as the ransom offered by the victors was paid. It was still possible for the defeated to save their lives, but this was basically for the nobles, with the exception of ordinary soldiers who were reduced to slavery.
Several tribal leaders around him also nodded helplessly, it is much better to pay some money and cattle and sheep than to wait for death here.
Yun Xiao's heralds arrived at the battlefield almost at the same time as the people sent out by the strong bar to shout.
The rise of the tiger is killing, and a dark iron armor has been hung with a layer of blood shell. Although almost no one could rush in front of them after the rain of arrows from the goshawks, there were not many injured people on the ground.
The tiger is not in the habit of accommodating wounded soldiers, as long as he sees the guy on the ground wailing loudly. He would grab it and slash it, and sometimes he would deliberately cut it inaccurately. I often cut off some arms and thighs, and let that guy's blood run dry.
Yun Xiao's order made him very unhappy, but Hou Ye's order needed to be obeyed unconditionally. Canghu didn't have the courage to rebel against Yunxiao, so he had to hold his saber in hate. He found a clean stone and sat down, waiting for the outcome of Tudo's negotiations with the strong bar.
Le Ran and Tudo walked between the two armies, and the strong leader was carried in front of them by the two tribal leaders.
"Tudotou, you won. We surrender to you as long as you guarantee our lives. We will do our best to meet your requirements and give you cattle, sheep and belongings. ”
Qiang said gasping. The upper part of the leg felt a little torn after such a movement. The wound that had just scabbed over began to bleed again.
"Strong, man, since you are willing to surrender. Then let your men lay down their weapons, and we will guarantee your life. ”
Yun Xiao's order also reached Tuduo's ears, which is why she agreed to Qiang's request so happily.
Qiangba breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he escaped today. Although there will be a lot of money lost, it will be worth saving your life. If a person dies, there is nothing left, and as long as he is alive, he will have a chance to turn the book.
It is impossible for the Han Chinese to stay here forever, as long as they leave. He will lead the army to attack Le Sister Qiang, and let these damn women vomit out twice what they have eaten.
Qiangba is a little glad that he only brought 20,000 people out, if it is really a mobilization of the whole clan, then there is no possibility of turning over this time. Nodding back to a tribal leader behind him, the Jingqiang began to march out of the valley in a procession, accepting the binding of the Le Sister Qiang.
The iron blades were confiscated by the Le Sister Qiang people, and as for those big sticks, Yun Xiao wanted them all. It's not bad to make a living, at least it saves the sergeants from going out to look for firewood. (To be continued......)
