The emperor's several imperial edicts attracted the attention of all the princes, but they did not raise any troops. One is that it is already winter and it is not appropriate to send troops to fight. Another reason is that the situation in the Han Dynasty at this time can affect the whole body.
Jiangdong Sun Quan and Jingzhou Liu Cong had already formed an alliance, but Xiliang Ma Teng not only did not go to Yecheng, nor did he return to Tianshui, he trained troops and horses in Chencang and deployed defenses along the Weishui River. At the same time, Ma Dai led 10,000 troops and horses to station in Wuzhangyuan, ready to go at any time. Pay attention to the movements of Chang'an Zhong Yao and Xicheng Zhang Ji.
And he also formed an alliance with Jingzhou to jointly deal with Cao Cao in the north.
Although Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, hated Liu Bei very much, he knew that the biggest threat came from the north. Therefore, the border between Hanzhong and Yizhou has always been in a state of peace.
After about half a year, the land in the north has been blooming in spring, and the crops have grown well. It was already getting a little hot in the south, and a piece of news spread everywhere, attracting the attention of all the princes in the world.
Liu Cong, the herdsman of Jingzhou, led an army of 20,000 and was about to conquer Wuxi.
Wuxi originally belonged to Wuling County, but since Emperor Guangwu, it has been occupied by barbarians. The imperial court sent large armies to conquer it many times. However, due to the complex terrain of Wuxi, the army could not deploy, and the barbarians were brave, so they all failed in the end.
Later, the Wuxi barbarians, led by their leader Jingfu, attacked Wuling and captured Xupu, the seat of Wuling government.
But the barbarians were not used to working in the fields and could not live without the mountains and forests. They went back after robbing them.
Not long after the officials of the imperial court came back, they were looted again. After repeating this process several times, the administrative seat of Wuling was moved to today's Yiling and renamed Wuling City.
Liu Cong wants to send troops to conquer Wuling, but other princes are not optimistic about it, including Ma Teng who is far away in Chencang. At that time, General Fubo Ma Yuan also sent troops to conquer Wuxi, but he failed miserably.
Outside Wuling City, the 20,000-strong army was assembled. Liu Min and Gong Zhi led 5,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard, with Deng Ai as the main general and Liu Cong personally commanding the troops.
This time, the troops were sent entirely from the Feitian Battalion, and neither Pang Tong nor Fazheng, the two military advisors, accompanied the army.
The current Wuxi Barbarian King Samoko is extremely brave, but he has no strategy. Moreover, using troops in Wuxi does not require any sophisticated strategies, not to mention that with a handsome man like Deng Ai, Liu Cong can rest assured.
"The ones who were worried were Jiangdong Zhou Yu and Cao Cao, so the other armies did not move.
There are five main rivers in Wuxi: Xiongxi, Yuanxi, Youxi, Chenxi, and Puxi. Each river is inhabited by a tribe who make a living by hunting, but there are also some simple plantings. There are about 20,000 men, women, old and children in each tribe, and the entire Wuxi is about 100,000 people. It is said that each tribe has 5,000 soldiers, including 3,000 elite soldiers. Once they want to invade Wuling County, they will join forces and jointly recommend Yuan Shamoko, the leader of the stream, is the commander.
The strategic plan formulated by Liu Cong was to defeat them one by one, and then move all the barbarians into Wuling, let them leave the forest, make a living by planting agriculture, and achieve complete Chineseization.
The first thing to attack is Xiongxi.
After receiving the news that Liu Cong led his army to attack Wuxi, Badan, the leader of Xiongxi, immediately gathered 5,000 barbarian soldiers and prepared for them.
"Chief, Liu Cong has an army of 20,000, and we only have 5,000. Do you want to ask the leader for help again?" Deputy leader Dohar asked.
"Ha" Badain burst into laughter, "Doha, you are too timid to be our leader in Xiongxi! This Jingzhou soldier will probably have weak legs when he sees our Xiongxi warriors. ! Twenty thousand people, in my opinion, are twenty thousand rabbits, let us shoot them!"
"Ha" Many of the little bosses also laughed.
"Chief, I heard that Liu Cong is only in his twenties!"
"It turns out that he is a young boy. As long as the leader yells, he will be frightened and pee his pants!"
"Ha" A little leader with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks laughed so hard, "Chief, I heard that Liu Cong's son has several wives, and they are very beautiful!"
"Then after we defeat Liu Cong, we will go directly to Xiangyang, snatch those ladies back, and give them to the leader!"
"good!"
"ha¡¡"
At this time, a soldier came flying along the stream.
"Report to the leader, Liu Cong sent Liu Min and Gong Zhi to lead five thousand soldiers and have entered our Xiongxi River!"
"What, five thousand soldiers, how dare you break into our territory!" Badain was furious when he heard this.
"Kill them all!"
"Yes, kill them all, leaving no one behind!"??
Suddenly the crowd was excited.
"Warriors, follow me to kill!" Badan shouted, "If Liu Cong is defeated, whoever gets the property and women of the Han people will get it!"
"Kill!" Each small leader led the barbarian soldiers under his command and rushed forward in a swarm along the creek.
Liu Min and Gong Zhi soon received the news that the barbarians were coming, so they formed a formation. The crossbowman occupied the favorable terrain and placed the arrow on the string.
The barbarian soldiers had no armor and were covered in various animal skins. There were also some people holding pieces of wooden shields with rough animal patterns painted on them. When they saw the Han army in front, they all screamed and rushed over.
"Fire the arrow!" Liu Min shouted.
Countless feather arrows flew out from behind the big trees, in the grass, and beside the stones, and scattered towards the barbarians.
"Ah" The barbarian soldiers who rushed in front screamed and fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.
"Rush over and kill them all!" Badan, the leader of Xiongxi, was furious when he saw it. You must know that the ones running at the front were their elites. The real Xiongxi warriors were lost like this.
"Kill!" Upon hearing Badain's order, the little leaders raised a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, and rushed to the front. The barbarian soldiers at the back were all fearless and fearless. They screamed "Woo, wah, wah, wah!" and charged forward ferociously!
After the Han soldiers shot three rounds of arrows, the barbarians rushed forward, and the two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
In jungle warfare, most soldiers are equipped with Han knives, which are light and sharp. The barbarian soldiers' spears were cut in half, and their shields were easily split open.
But the bravery of the barbarian soldiers was beyond Liu Min and Gong Zhi's expectations. They actually fought the Han army with bare hands. The ones in front were just killed, and the ones behind them would hug the Han soldiers with both hands and start wrestling on the ground. Some rolled down the slope, and some rolled into the river.
?????????????????????? And the bravery of those small leaders was no less than that of the centurions or even the commanders of thousands of the Han army, and they also caused a lot of casualties to the Han army.
At this time, Badan, the leader of Xiongxi, also rushed into the Han army. He waved the broad-backed sword in his hand and harvested the lives of the Han soldiers as if chopping melons and vegetables.
When Liu Min and Gong Zhi saw it, they were also angry and jealous. They shook the spears in their hands and rushed over. They both blocked Badain. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
