Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

The trees on both sides of the road kept shaking. It seemed that something huge was coming up from the hills and down the trees. I saw smoke and dust everywhere, and countless cavalry rushed on the road like a long dragon winding on the road. There is no end, countless people are crowded, it is impossible to count how many people there are.

"Dong Zhuo! Have you gotten rid of him?"

Beigong Boyu's body undulated with the bumps of the war horse, his expression annoyed.

Withdrawing troops yesterday, Dong Zhuo bit himself, and pursued his tail. Yesterday, he carefully counted the number of people. There were seven or eight thousand fewer people. Among them, some were killed by Xiliang cavalry and some were separated.

Bei Gong Boyu, on the contrary, believed even more firmly in what Bian Zhang said, that the red light entering the big camp yesterday was an ominous omen, otherwise so many people would die?

Li Wenhou on the side opened his mouth and said, "How about taking a break? Dong Zhuo has been chasing him for a day and night, so he should take his troops back. After all, Zhang Wen's army has not come out, so he dare not fight with our army head-on."

Beigong Boyu rode his horse wildly for almost a day, and was already exhausted at this moment. Even if a few horses alternated, the horses under him were a little tired.

"Well, I'll wait for a while to rest..."

Beigong Boyu had just ordered the whole army to go down and rest, but unexpectedly a loud arrow burst out of the woods.

boom!

"Kill the thief!"

Suddenly countless flags were erected in the woods on both sides of the road, waving in the wind, shouting killings from all sides, and I don't know how many people rushed out in the woods on both sides.

"Go on!"

Beigong Boyu was taken aback and hurriedly mounted his horse. Numerous Hu riders were panicked. Suddenly, there was smoke and dust on the road ahead. Thousands of cavalrymen stood up with a Liu-shaped flag and killed them. With a gun in his hand, he was unstoppable and it was Liu Ye.

When Li Wenhou saw this person, his face paled: "Liu Ye, it's Liu Ye!"

Those who rushed out from both sides of the road were all pawns, who had been replenishing their energy for a long time, holding a spear and a ring-head knife in their hands, rushing out of the forest, and slashing and killing the Huren who dismounted.

And along with the Han troops on both sides of the road rushed out with swishing arrows. The archers hidden in the forest opened their bows and shot arrows, sending out arrows of death. Some horses were hit by arrows and were The painful stimulus suddenly raised their heads and hissed, trampled everywhere, but countless Qiang people sitting on the ground suffered unconscious disasters. They were knocked to the ground by the running horses, and some people were directly trampled by horseshoes, and they were suddenly broken into fractures. .

However, the Han army rushing up did not fight individually, but dozens of people as a team. They advanced their shields and sent the Qiang people to the chaos. After the chaos, the soldiers with the sword in their hands rushed out to chase the disintegrated Hu Qi. kill.

The Qiang people were in chaos, and Liu Ye led his army into the formation at this time.

boom!

Three thousand cavalry rushed into the Qiang formation head-on. The cavalry was stronger because of its high-speed mobility and unparalleled impact. Even if Hu Qi stood still on the horse, he didn’t have a charge to accumulate his momentum. The target.

As soon as the front row was mounted, Hu Qi, who was not firmly established, was directly knocked off by the dense cavalry formation. The rush of the two-sided infantry and the frontal cavalry formation caused the Qiang people to suddenly chaos, especially the arrows shot from the dense forest, which greatly deepened Hu Qi's panic.

Huqi was in a mess, looking at the figure waving the flag and shouting in the dense forest, there was no idea how many people there were.

"Quick retreat, retreat quickly!"

Bei Gong Boyu was originally chased by Dong Zhuo like a frightened bird, and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops. After Hu mounted his horse, and retreated after the battle, he did not want to entangle the killed Han army, but fleeed one by one.

"Haha, happy!"

Guan Hai laughed and turned around and shouted: "The county guard, do you want to chase after him?"

Liu Ye shook his head: "I'm waiting for a few soldiers. This big victory is just taking advantage of the enemy's panic. I don't know the depth of our army. If you know how many people there are in our army, I'm afraid that instead of running away, we will fight to the death. "

Liu Ye used 10,000 troops in this battle, not to say that he expanded 10,000 troops in Tianshui County. The total number of standing troops in Tianshui County was only 5,000, with 3,000 cavalry and 2,000 infantry.

However, he also summoned Minzhuang from various places to participate in military training. The training was held every ten days, and each household was subsidized with a bucket of food per month. This time, of the 10,000 people who came with him, 5,000 of them were Minzhuang.

Naturally, it is impossible for these people to really fight, so they were only responsible for waving the flag and shouting in the woods. Only three thousand cavalry and two thousand foot soldiers were actually attacking.

Because the Qiang rebels have been entrenched in the Sanfu area, Liu Ye always sent out sentries to investigate the surrounding area. However, he accidentally detected Hu Qi who was retreating led by Beigong Boyu. Therefore, Liu Ye chose a road that Hu Qi must pass and set up in advance. Ambush down.

Hu Qi, who had been stunned by Dong Zhuo's chasing soldiers, was already a frightened bird. When he encountered Liu Ye's army, he suddenly slammed out, thinking that it was a **** soldier, so he fought and retreated.

In fact, fewer than a thousand people were killed or injured, but the Qiang people were in a hurry, leaving behind many war horses.

Looking at the unowned war horses around, Liu Ye couldn't help but laugh. Before he moved to the Central Plains, the Yellow Turban thieves lacked war horses, so Liu Ye had only a few hundred war horses for a long time, and he couldn't add them.

Now that he suddenly got so many horses, Liu Ye suddenly felt like he had made a fortune. With so many horses, he could expand another two thousand cavalry. After careful calculation, the three thousand cavalry in his army are all one man and two horses, that is, six thousand war horses, plus these more than four thousand war horses, there are a total of 10,000 war horses.

However, there are less than 30,000 households in Tianshui County, and a total of 130,000 people. According to ten people to raise one child, the maximum is 13,000 soldiers and horses. However, that would be too extreme. Now there are five thousand standing troops. , Five thousand reserve, basically it is almost the same.

"Go, take the war horse back."

The Hu Qi rebels retreated from Meiyang, and the captive general Dong Zhuo followed, leading the troops to hunt down and kill more than 6,000 Qiang thief. Beigong Boyu fled all the way with the disease. He didn't expect to enter Tianshui territory and was beaten in an ambush by the county guard Liu Ye. He left more than a thousand corpses and more than 4,000 war horses and fled.

Beigong Boyu fled all the way, barely staying, and fled from Tianshui County back to Yuzhong County, Jincheng County.

But maybe it was because of the fright these two days that Bei Gong Boyu lay down on the bed and couldn't afford it.

When the good news reached Luoyang, Lingdi inevitably gave Dong Zhuo and Liu Ye another commendation. At the same time, he ordered Zhang Wen to be reluctant to attack, and at the same time ordered Zhang Wen to advance quickly and calm Liangzhou as soon as possible.

After receiving the edict from the emperor, Zhang Wen was taken aback, and hurriedly summoned the generals to ask questions, preparing to fight against the rebels entrenched in Yuzhong County.
