469.Chapter 469: The End of the Qiang People

"Drive!"

More than 100 Qiang people rode war horses, galloped on the grassland, and hurried to the bank of the Hutuze River, ready to go after and kill thirty sand thieves.

At the head of the group, a Qiang man, who looks like a tiger, is the leader of this small Qiang tribe.

He rode on his war horse and roared angrily: "The sand thieves dare to attack the warriors of my tribe, they really don't know whether they are alive or dead. This time, it will definitely let them come and go! ”

During this time, due to the emergence of the 'Qiang Killing Order', there were often lonely Qiang people who became headless corpses. In just one month, this small Qiang tribe has lost eighteen people.

The leader of the Qiang people had long held back his anger, and after receiving the news from Ulu, he immediately gathered a hundred Qiang warriors and came to hunt down the sand thieves.

"Stomp, stomp!"

The sound of horses' hooves came from a hurry, and a scout came to the leader of the Qiang people and said, "Chief, the sand thieves have fled into the desert. ”

"How long have they been in the desert?"

"Just entered!"

The leader of the Qiang people pondered for a while, waved the weapon in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Chase! ”

In the desert, it is not endless. Some of the sand dunes are still rising one after another, forming hills and steep slopes. The men chased after them for half an hour, and just as they were about to give up, they suddenly saw smoke rising in the distance.

"There is cooking smoke, there must be sand thieves resting ahead!"

The Qiang people roared loudly and excitedly, patting their horses and chasing after them to the place where the smoke was cooking. The horses galloped past, leaving a series of horseshoe prints in the desert.

Thirty sand thieves, lighting a fire at the bottom of a steep slope, laughed loudly while barbecuing meat. Several Qiang heads were hung around the necks of the war horses, and they swayed from side to side with the shaking of the war horses.

When the leader of the Qiang people led the warriors of the tribe, when he saw the sand thieves, he immediately screamed and rushed over.

The sand thieves didn't seem to expect that the Qiang people would suddenly rush over, and suddenly lost their square inches and became chaotic.

The leader of the Qiang people roared and rushed over, shouting as he charged: "Kill!" Avenge the Horde's fallen warriors! ”

One hundred against thirty people, the Qiang people believe that no matter how brave and good the sand thieves are, they will inevitably be slaughtered today. They want to use the heads of these sand thieves to deter other Han Chinese who are eyeing them.

Otherwise, according to the Qiang people's character of bullying the weak and fearing the hard, they may not dare to hunt down and kill the thirty sand thieves.

After all, the sand pirates are outlaws. Even if the Qiang people had the absolute upper hand, they would not be able to kill thirty sand thieves unscathed.

However, during this time, the Han people kept attacking, which had already annoyed the Qiang chieftains.

It wasn't until he led the warriors of the tribe to slaughter a Han village of dozens of people and hang all their heads in the tribe that the situation got better.

In the eyes of the Qiang chieftains, the Han people are cowardly, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, as long as they show their ferocity, they can scare the sheep-like Han people.

The appearance of thirty sand thieves allowed the Qiang leader to find the target of Liwei. So, this is the matter of chasing and killing sand thieves.

"Kill!"

A hundred Qiang people shouted, brandishing their weapons and rushing towards the panicked sand thieves. Seeing this, the sand thieves seemed to become more and more panicked, and they hurriedly drew their weapons and climbed onto their horses.

"Boom!"

The war horse stepped on the ground with an earth-shattering sound. Seeing that the Qiang people were getting closer and closer to the sand thieves, suddenly a dull war drum sounded.

"Trip, get up!"

Behind the sand slope, a dense crowd of sand thieves suddenly appeared, and the first person was Tang Peng.

"Up!"

A pair of sand thieves hiding in the sand suddenly stood up and pulled away from the stumbling blocks buried in the sand.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

Caught off guard, the charging Qiang war horse tripped over the horse rope and fell to the ground, throwing the Qiang knight off his horse.

Tang Peng waved the weapon in his hand, slapped his horse and shouted: "Brothers, charge with me and kill all the Qiang dogs!" ”

The Qiang people, who were suddenly ambushed, faced with the attack of several times their own sand bandits, and had no courage to continue fighting.

Except for those Qiang people who tripped over the ground and had no time to escape. The rest of the Qiang people turned their horses' heads and abandoned their leaders and fled desperately.

"Leave no one, kill!"

Tang Peng roared loudly, the war knife in his hand flew up and down, blood and corpses all over the place. It didn't take long for the Qiang people who fell to the ground to be slaughtered.

Tang Peng wiped a handful of blood splashed on his face and roared loudly: "Leave the ten brothers to clean up the battlefield, and the rest follow me to hunt down the Qiang people!" ”

Huang Kai was too weak to follow Tang Peng away, so he could only stay and help clean up the battlefield. However, he repeatedly pleaded with Scar to get Uru's head back.

The cold wind is howling, and the yellow sand is all over the sky.

Compared with the Huns, the combat effectiveness of the Qiang people is simply not worth mentioning. Although they are very fierce when fighting against the wind, as long as they encounter setbacks, they will collapse for thousands of miles.

Tang Peng took three hundred sand thieves and pursued them all the way to the territory of this small Qiang tribe. Along the way, more than 50 Qiang people were killed one after another.

Seeing that the remaining Qiang people had fled into the humble camp, Tang Peng shouted sharply: "Rush into the camp, the Qiang people will kill men and women, old and young, and there will be no mercy!" ”

Billowing smoke drifted in the wind, and the sunset and blood stained the entire desert red, leaving only a charred and headless corpse in the fire-raging Qiang camp.

When the fire was extinguished and night fell, the wolf howls came and went. In just one night, the corpses have turned into white bones.

Among the Qiang people who were slain were old people, women, and children. Maybe Chen Xu led the troops, and he would let these people go. However, the sand pirate is not Chen Xu after all.

The long-term conquest in Liangzhou has made the Han and Qiang races full of unforgettable hatred. In wars between races, there is no mercy, there is no right or wrong, only killing and victory.

Perhaps one day, when the two nations can truly put aside their hatred, understand and respect each other, and completely integrate together, this kind of war will stop.

Otherwise, the killing will never stop.

The sand thieves returned to the small oasis with fruitful results, as well as countless cattle, sheep, and horses, and the people of the entire oasis were all excited.

This time against the Qiang tribe, the casualties of the sand thieves were almost negligible. However, after the first battle, not only did he behead 538 people, seized countless materials, but also rescued more than 30 Han slaves.

Scar came to Huang Kai's side, shrugged his head, and said ashamedly: "Akai, Ulu Na fled while the war was raging, and I couldn't bring his head back, I'm sorry for you." ”

Hearing Scar's words, a faint look of disappointment flashed in Huang Kai's eyes. But soon, he hid his disappointment in the bottom of his heart.

Huang Kai smiled indifferently, patted Scar's shoulder, and said, "It's okay, Ulu has become a lost dog, and it is difficult for him to continue to survive in the cold winter." ”

enlightened Scar for a while, and Huang Kai personally sent him away.

After this battle, Huang Kai also became the third leader of the sand thieves, and continued to discuss with Tang Peng and them about defeating the rest of the Qiang tribes.

In fact, Tang Peng led the sand thieves to attack the Qiang tribe, which is just an extremely common case among the Han people today.

Due to the emergence of the 'Qiang Killing Order', not only the sand thieves, but also many bandits who gathered in the mountains and forests, as well as the Liangzhou Haoqiang who had a strong Wu Fort, also kept hunting the Qiang people.

Even, there are many rangers and hunters, and they also hunted some lonely Qiang people.

This kind of large-scale hunting has certainly caused the corpses of the Qiang people to be strewn all over the field, but there are also many Han people who have been killed by the powerful Qiang people. In order to vent their anger, the Qiang stripped the Han people of their clothes and carried their corpses on the flagpole.

The mutual hunting between the two sides made the hatred between Han and Qiang more and more intense.

However, with the extinction of one small Qiang tribe after another, the Qiang people in the territory of Sili Youfufeng are almost extinct.

As for the five counties in the east of Liangzhou occupied by Chen Xu, due to the help of the government, the Qiang people in the territory gradually could not hold on. They either fled into the mountains or migrated westward en masse.

Even the Qiang people in the four counties of Longxi and Jincheng County dare not go out alone now.

Many small Qiang tribes, fearing extermination, gathered together with other Qiang people to form larger alliances to stop the Han hunting them.

I have to say that the temptation of having a knighthood, as well as the high price of the powerful to buy the Qiang heads, made many outlaws take risks.

They roam around the Qiang tribe, and when they find an opportunity, they pounce on them like hungry wolves.

For a time, the Qiang rebellion that swept through the land of the six counties was quickly quelled. And the government, just by paying some titles, made tens of thousands of Qiang people headless corpses.

At this time, there was another incident that shook Liangzhou even more.

The Di people are a nomadic people like the Qiang people, who also live in the western part of Liangzhou, and are intertwined with the Qiang people's sphere of influence.

However, compared to the huge population of the Qiang people, the Di people are much worse. Naturally, their living space has also been greatly compressed by the Qiang people.

In the face of the powerful Qiang people, the Di people have always been compromised, but the appearance of the 'Qiang Killing Order' has made some Di people start to move.

Especially after Liangzhou Haoqiang bought the Qiang people's heads at a clear price, the Di people, who lived a hard life, also joined the ranks of hunting the Qiang people.

In the beginning, they just sold the Qiang heads cheaply to Liangzhou Haoqiang, or in exchange for food.

Later, there was a Di man who actually took the head of the Qiang person to the government to receive a reward. Unexpectedly, the Di man also got the title of duke.

As a result, the people became even crazier. Several Diren tribes united together and raided and killed a large Qiang tribe of thousands of people, leaving no men, women, and children behind.

When the Qiang people learned of this news, they were immediately furious and began to start a war with the Di people.
