Chapter 340: The Battle of the Qin Jin Fu Clan
Duke Kang of Qin died in the twelfth year of his reign, and Prince Dao ascended the throne as the Duke of Qin; Qin Gonggong died in the fifth year of his reign, and Prince Rong ascended the throne as Duke Qin Huan. Duke Qin Huan ascended the throne for five years as Duke Lu Xuan and three years as Duke Jin Cheng.
In the summer of the eighth year of Lu Xuangong, Jin and Bai Di jointly attacked Qin, defeated the defenders of Qin, and captured two cities. Qin Huan Gong was deeply ashamed and kept looking for an opportunity to retaliate.
In July of the year when Jin destroyed Lu, Duke Qin Huan took advantage of the Jin army to rise up and the country was empty, leading the army to attack Jin, and the target was Fushi City, an important town in Hexi of the Jin State. Fushi City is located to the east of Luoshui, adjacent to Dali.
At that time, the boundary river of Qin and Jin was Luoshui, and the Fushi City and the Peng Ya to the north formed a corner to intimidate the Qin State. The Qin people felt like the Jin people had erected two watchtowers outside their courtyard walls, spying on their ** all the time; The people of the Qin State were very unhappy in their hearts, so they decided to take the opportunity to get rid of that scourge.
The city of Fu is small but strong, it is a city that is constantly prepared, and the military and political officer of the Fu clan is Wei Li's son Wei Li. After the Qin army set off, Wei Wei actively prepared for war, and at the same time reported the situation to the office, and transferred local forces from Dali and Pengya to the two cities.
On the side of the Qin State, the vanguard of the Qin army was led by Guan Du Hui, and the main force was three days away from the vanguard; This distance was a little too far, not because the main force was too slow, but because the vanguard was running too fast.
Wei Wei received the information and decided to take advantage of the fact that the vanguard was advancing alone and had not yet gained a foothold.
Du came back to the outskirts of the Fu clan and saw from a distance that the Jin people had lined up and prepared to meet the enemy. In the center of the Jin army was the auxiliary army commanded by Wei Wei, and the two flanks were the supporters who hurried from Dali and Pengya. Due to the local armed forces, almost half of the Jin people lacked armor, and their weapons were rudimentary, and the people were of different ages and wore all kinds of clothesβthey looked like a gang of gangsters.
The Qin army was small and fine, and they could not attack the three Jin armies at the same time, so they set their target on the Wei division directly opposite. Du Hui said to Yu Rong: "It seems that there is no need to set up camp, we will go to the city to rest after we have eliminated this gang of Hanako!" β
Wei stood on the chariot, and he watched as the enemy got closer and closer to him. The outline of the enemy's main chariot also became clear, and he suddenly found that standing on the main chariot was a huge bear wrapped in armor!
Wei Wei thought that he had hallucinations, and couldn't help but squeeze his eyes and shake his head, and "that bear" actually pointed at him and laughed; Wei Wei thought that he was having auditory hallucinations again, so he shook even more, and as a result, the entire Qin army began to laugh. Only then did Wei Wei see that the bear turned out to be the leader of the enemy army.
The Qin army did not give the defenders time to react, and immediately launched a charge; Du Hui jumped down from the chariot, wielding the giant battle axe that only the legendary gods would hold, and split the head of Wei's chariot horse with just one click.
The war horse fell suddenly, Wei was shocked, turned around and abandoned the car and fled, Du Hui smashed the chariot with a second axe, and chased the enemy head on the fragments of the chariot. The Jin people swarmed up, and Du Hui picked up his weapon and, like the King of Destruction, swept through the enemy army, leaving only mutilated corpses and lingering wounded in his path. Du Hui wore a special pottery armor, and only a white mark was left on it; One of the warriors jumped up and stabbed his spear, and the shaft of the spear broke like a toothpick.
The Qin army was pressed in an all-round way, and the frontal defense line of the Jin army could not withstand the violent impact, and it was soon lost. Just when the Qin army was about to let go of their hands and feet to slaughter, the Jin people on both flanks outflanked them, and the Qin army was attacked on several sides and had to abandon the attack and take the defensive position. The two sides were deadlocked for a while, and no one could go any further, so Wei Wei ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
The Jin army withdrew to Fushi City, and the Qin army camped on the outskirts, leaving a large number of corpses in the place where the fierce battle had just taken place, and Wei's battle flag was also snatched by the enemy. Both sides sent carcasse teams to each retrieve the victims, and soon it was dark.
The Jin people were very depressed, and there were dozens of corpses brought into the city, and the worst ones were all given by Bai Duhui. The main forces of Dali and Dr. Peng Ya held on to the city to wait for reinforcements. Although Wei Wei was unwilling, he had to give up the idea of attacking again.
At night, Wei Wei dreamed that he had come to the river beach on the bank of Luoshui, and he saw an old man squatting in the grass, tying two bundles of wild grass that were more than a foot apart like tying shoelaces and tying them in a dead knot. When a hare jumped into the knotted grass and suddenly tripped over, the old man grabbed it by the ear and took it away. Wei Wei wanted to see the old man's appearance, but he couldn't see it clearly.
Wei Wei woke up suddenly, at this time, a touch of blue had appeared in the east, he felt something, and immediately quietly slipped out of the north gate with a few relatives. It turns out that not far from the city of Fushi is Luoshui, and the river beach of Luoshui is gentle and full of artemisia grass. Wei Wei came to a half-man-high artemisia meadow, chose a spot, ordered the people to tie some of the artemisia grass together according to the method he described the grass, and then ordered several short and sturdy soldiers to carry short weapons and ambush in the grass next to them. When he had done all this work, he quietly returned to the city with the rest of the people.
Wei Wei gathered the officers together and said, "My military flag has been taken away, and there is no excuse to hide here and pretend to be a hero defending the city. I will challenge Du Hui with the strength of one person, and you must be ready: if I kill Du Hui, you must attack with all your strength to destroy the Qin army. β
After saying that, he jumped on a flagpole bare chariot and drove out of the city, and drove alone towards the enemy camp, and the soldiers poured onto the city wall and sang the military song of the Jin Kingdom, as if to give a funeral to a hero who died in battle.
Wei Wei shouted Du Hui's name outside the barracks, and Du Hui saw that there was only one person on the other side, and he also drove out of the camp alone. Wei Wei shouted to him for the military flag, Du Hui pulled the military flag out of his belt, raised it at him, tucked it back and said, "If you can take it back, it will be yours." β
Wei Yuan stopped being verbose and shot an arrow at him; Du Hui was furious and drove towards him. Wei Wei turned the head of the car and drove towards the river beach, and Du Hui chased after him; Wei Wei suddenly looked back and shot an arrow that killed the opponent's warhorse, and Du Hui jumped off the chariot and continued to chase wildly. Wei also jumped out of the car and strode into the artemisia meadow.
Du Hui followed, he stepped into the grass and did not be affected by the first step, but pulled out the artemisia grass, lost his balance in the second step, and lost his strength in the third step, and fell to the ground with a bang. The samurai who were in ambush on the left and right leaped out, screaming and stabbing him in the bare neck with his sword, instantly stabbing him to death.
Wei returned to the scene, tore out the battle flag, and cut off the enemy's head. He re-hung the battle flag on the chariot, picked up the head, and drove wildly outside the city, shouting: "The enemy leader has been killed, drive the enemy into Luoshui!" The Jin people cheered and beat the drums, opened the city gate and rushed out, running wildly, chasing the enemy out of ten miles with one blow.
The rout army has been fleeing into the main camp of the Qin army, Qin Huan Gong was furious, he shouted: "If you don't step on the Fu clan, the widow swears not to withdraw the army!" But the scout soon came to report: "The Jin army is crossing the Yellow River to the west, and it is about to reach the city of Fushi." β
Now that the Fu clan is solid, there is no possibility of a battle leader, and the Qin people are extremely unwilling to retreat.
On the night of the Fu's victory, Wei Wei dreamed of the old man again, and this time he finally saw the true face of the other party. The old man said, "Does the Master not recognize me?" I am Jiang's father, and you saved my daughter's life, so I helped you defeat the enemy. β
It turned out that Wei Li married a concubine surnamed Jiang in his later years, but she was beautiful but had no children. Wei Li once told Wei Wei: "After I die, you will help her remarry!" She was too young to be widowed for the rest of her life. β
But Wei Li became delirious during his serious illness, and he made the opposite decision when he was dying: "After I die, I must be buried with Jiang!" β
After Wei Li's death, Wei Wei married Jiang to someone else's family. Someone reproached him for disobeying his father's orders, and Wei Wei said, "Of course I didn't." People can make the right decisions when they are healthy, but they can make mindless decisions when they are seriously ill. I'm just doing what he does right. β
