Chapter 258: The Liangzhou Incident (Part II)

Liangzhou, Yanqi County.

King Qin returned to the division for more than ten days, the government opened a grain, after the war the body has been buried, no matter how grieved, the people still have to live, and gradually the city returned to normal.

It's winter now, and a few light snows have fallen, although the sun is now shining, which adds a little chill.

Liuzhi Hutong, located at the gate of the city, was originally a very lively place, but at the moment although the shops and houses are open, there are not many pedestrians on the street.

But it's freezing, a small hotel, and some business.

There was warm wine in it, and when a passing man came in, he drank: "Old man Zhang, come to a bowl of hot rice wine and give two dumplings." ”

Old man Zhang answered, and in a blink of an eye, he handed over a bowl of scalded rice wine and two dumplings.

The man gulped and drank, biting into the dumpling, and shouting, "Happy, another piece of pig's head!"

Old man Zhang promised loudly: "Done!"

As he spoke, he cut a piece of fatty pig's head, ran over, and said with a smile, "Have you done work again?"

The man picked up the oily meat and ate it, and said: "The battle is over, Liangzhou is finally peaceful, it is said that the official master is going to reclaim, and the road is also more peaceful, I just hope that there will be no war in the future." ”

When Old Man Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but feel sour, and said vaguely: "Hey, yes, as long as you don't fight, everyone will have more ways to live, make some money, and my youngest daughter will marry a little ......bit when she marries."

In the troubled times, the eldest daughter starved to death, and a son was killed, who didn't have this disaster in this troubled world, the man no longer spoke, just ate meat and drank wine, but his eyes rolled, and he couldn't help but "huh".

"Look, Second Young Master He Benchang is drinking in front?"

The Shenjia Hotel, which is a little farther away, is wider than this small shop, and there are three guys, but this hotel is a hotel for civilians after all, how can these old men come?

Old man Zhang looked at it, and also felt strange, and said: "Yes, maybe the Shen family's old duck soup is good? You see that there are several people around him!"

Shenjia duck soup, the heat is good, Shenjia Hotel is this support.

The man looked at it, and suddenly his face changed, and his eyes swept around again, and his face was even pale, only to see dozens of people distributed nearby, and if he looked closely, they were all strangers.

There are some strangers coming and going at the city gate, but most of them will not stop, and now there are so many strangers here, and all of them have a cold air......

The man suddenly shivered, got up and drank the last wine, glanced at the few guards who were drinking inside, and forced a smile: "The boss is in a hurry, I'll go." ”

As he spoke, he dropped a few pennies, and before he could find the money, he got up and hurriedly left Old Man Zhang.

Zhang Bantou was a little strange, and was about to say something, when suddenly, a siren sounded on the city wall.

"What's the matter?,, a fire captain who was also drinking in the shop stood up violently, and several other guards also stood up.

"Cavalry outside the city!" shouted someone in the city.

At this time, there is no need to say, the sound of the horse's hooves has been faintly felt, the horse's hooves are continuous, running like heavy thunder, this fire chief is experienced, as soon as he hears it, he knows that it is wrong, he pulls out his long knife, and shouts: "Blow the horn, go down the city gate!"

and went straight to the gates.

At this moment, only to hear the sound of "poof", the fire chief only felt a numbness on his body, and saw an arrow tip coming out of his chest, and reluctantly struggled to look back, only to see that in the Shen Hotel, He Benchang, the second son of the He family, pulled out his knife violently, and shouted: "Kill, kill all the guards to welcome the king!"

Suddenly, dozens of strangers around shouted, pulled out knives out of nowhere, and slashed at the doorman.

In the midst of the sound of killing, the sound of horses' hooves was as swift as thunder, and the dust was rolled up like a whirlwind, and in a matter of moments, a group of horsemen were seen, dressed in leather or animal skins, with helmets on their heads, and longbows and quivers on their backs, full of arrows.

It was noon, the sun was shining, and the sound of killing and hooves was seen together, and the people nearby suddenly changed color, and in chaos, they rushed to their homes.

After only a few moments, a group of Hu people had already rushed into the entrance of the city gate.

Rushing into the city gate, the speed of the Hu people did not decrease but increased, led by the head of the hundred households, an order, only to listen to the sound of "poof", endlessly, more than a dozen guards who were still resisting suddenly fell in response.

Seeing this, the head of the hundred households laughed, bent his bow and arrow, and saw "poof,,,

Hu shouted cheers and continued to run into the city.

Seeing this, He Benchang hurriedly rushed out: "The villain welcomes the king, and we will welcome the king......"

At this time, a Hu cavalry was bending his bow and arrows, and saw a Han man coming out with a knife, shouting something he didn't understand, not even blinking his eyes, and letting go of his hand violently, only to hear a "poof", an arrow broke through the air, and passed through He Benchang's chest and came out from behind.

He Benchang's face showed an expression of surprise and disbelief, looking at the arrow on his body, he didn't seem to understand what was happening, and he didn't fall down, shouting: "Master Wang...... Wang ......"

"Poof, poof, poof!" The sound of the long arrow entering the flesh was chilling, the three long arrows broke through the chest and pierced deeply into the chalk, the blood clot in He Benchang's mouth gushed out, looking at the Wang Shi who was shooting arrows everywhere, he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, and after a few seconds, he burst out with a miserable laugh, this laugh only sounded once, and with a "boom", He Benchang's body fell to the ground, and he was already out of breath.

The dozens of people present were stunned, and some shouted in disbelief: "The second son was killed, and the second son was killed by Wang Shi." ”

"Bastard, you killed the wrong person. Baihu slammed out a whip and hit the cavalry who shot the arrows, but when the fight was over, he looked at the chaotic scene and shouted: "Kill them all." ”

Since you have already killed, it is better to kill them all, so as not to be scolded by Qianhu or His Highness, and say that it is better to die in the hands of the defenders.

Suddenly, the sword light and sword shadows, shouting and killing, the cavalry shot at dozens of private soldiers who were friendly soldiers a minute ago, and the screams continued to sound.

These private soldiers, although they are outstanding in martial arts on weekdays, come out alone, dismount and fight, and they are definitely stronger than the Hu people.

It's just that they are all martial artists, where have they trained battle formations on weekdays?

Not to mention the cooperation and archery of the Hu cavalry, these Hu people, who can be selected as the vanguard of the city, are naturally the elite of the elite soldiers, only listening to the screams again and again, within a few minutes, more than a dozen people were killed.

"Ahh

The Hu man roared in disbelief, entangled with him and fell, blood continued to flow out of the two.

Baihu also roared angrily, flattened his bow, pulled out his knife, and galloped up, the knife flashed, only to see Zhang Er's head flying up violently and rolling to the ground.

...... In an instant, there were fifty private soldiers, only a dozen remaining, and all of them were wounded, a little farther away, Zhang Da glanced back, revealing a grudge, and turned over the wall.

In a moment, smoke rose from the city, flames were faintly seen, screams and shouts of killing were endless, and three miles away, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed like a tide, rushing straight to the city gate.

Guanzhong, two hundred miles away from Chang'an, the army is trekking.

Qin King Guo Wentong is determined to be in the world, and his family is several generations of military gates, proficient in military training, so the military discipline of the Qin army is still strict, 50,000 troops, 30,000 infantry, 20,000 cavalry, although the long march, but there is not too much noise, the formation, and basically remains intact.

Guo Wentong called the queen of Qin, and claimed to have won the virtue of water, so the clothes and armor banners were mostly black, and from a distance, a black torrent was advancing.

"Your Majesty, the army has been fighting for months, and has marched again and again, and is exhausted, and the weather is cold, and it is noon, so it is better to camp today, bury the pot and cook, rest for the night, and then continue on the journey. The general who followed behind Guo Wentong saw that Wang Shang's face was a little bad, and thought that he was too tired from the long-distance march, so he stepped forward and persuaded him: "There is still more than half a month before the New Year, and it only takes three days to reach Chang'an, so it's too late." ”

"Just rest!" Guo Wentong didn't know why, he always felt uneasy, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of what the reason was, thinking about the reason for going back this time, he couldn't help but feel uneasy, and all of it was attributed to the anxiety about taking Luoyang, thinking about it like this, naturally he didn't think about it anymore.

And it's right, it only takes three days to get to Chang'an, and there is still more than half a month for the New Year, so it doesn't matter if it's slow now.

At the moment the order was given, the trumpet sounded, and the army was in a commotion, and after a few moments the advance gradually stopped, and the whole army began to encamp.

Half an hour later, a large area of camp tents was set up, the Qin army camped quite orderly, must build wooden fences, and dig trenches, each battalion has its own boundary, and there are special patrol cavalry, the degree is strict.

Soon, however, a group of sentry scouts entered and exited the camp, and a group of auxiliaries carried water to make food and feed the horses, and smoke rose from the camp.

The main dry food of the Qin army is the leavened dough baked cakes, these cakes are flour with a little salt, and some vegetable leaves are mixed in them, so that the stomach will not rise after eating, and the digestion is normal.

This kind of noodle nutrition basically meets the needs, ten days and half a month without mold and deterioration, easy to carry, when it is put on the fire to roast hot, water can be eaten.

The food of the officers is basically the same, but they are accompanied by dried meat, and only the rank of general can kill the cattle and sheep carried by the army to improve the food.

Of course, in wartime tense situations, soldiers will also get jerky, as a way to maintain the physical strength and morale of the army, and can be put into battle at any time, strengthening the continuous aggression of the army.

Guo Wentong inspected the camp, inspected surrounded by the generals, looked at the past, and saw that although the soldiers were tired, they did not collapse, and they still maintained their morale, secretly satisfied, although they were still uneasy in their hearts, they still said with a smile: "It seems that the situation of the soldiers is not bad, but the new nose army needs to strengthen training." ”

A general responded and said: "Your Majesty, these are the elites of the long-term war, after returning to Chang'an, they only need to cultivate and train for one month, and they will be a division of tigers and wolves." ”

Guo Wentong nodded silently and smiled.
