Shu Chen

Chapter 283
Birds of prey will strike, fly lowly and fold their wings; beasts of prey will fight, and bow down with their ears closed.

—— "Six Secret Teachings·Wu Tao"

Huang Hua, the prefect of Jiuquan, had never had the chance to read Jiang Taigong's "Six Secret Teachings", but he knew that if he wanted to ambush and make meritorious deeds, he must first show his weakness.After seeing the Death Battalion belonging to Zheng Pu appearing in the Han army camp, he felt that things were too paradoxical, and suddenly noticed many strange things.

For example, since the Han army has transferred all the death-death camps guarding the fortress of Yuyin, Wei Yan has enough troops, why only Guan Xing was left to guard the fortress with [-] soldiers?Guan Xing is the successor of the Bashu founder, and he is highly valued by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu. How can Wei Yan put him in a desperate situation!

Second, the war has lasted for three hours, why did Ma Dai's department, who was supporting him, not break out for so long?
With the great reputation of the Xiliang iron cavalry in Yongliang in the past, Huang Hua didn't think that the six thousand Hexi cavalry sent away by Jia Xu would make Ma Dai helpless and even have no chance to enter the battlefield.

Also, Yang Fu sent military information about the attack on Wuwei.

In just over ten days, more than ten Haoyou or Qianghu tribes were attacked!

Since autumn and July, Bi Jiangwei's tribe and Xianbei's Tuoba tribe have been chasing Juechen and fighting in the desert. Three months have passed, and they still have the energy to follow the desert to attack more than ten families in Wuwei County?
After repeated fierce battles, not to mention the fatigue of the soldiers, even the horses can lose weight and gallop!
All kinds of strange things were mixed together, which made Huang Hua smell the ominous meaning: the soldiers who went against Shu came to Jincheng, and they really intended to be in the west of Hexi!
Therefore, he took a look at the battlefield where he still couldn't see the outcome, so he quietly left the battle with his personal guards in a panic.

In a hurry, he even ignored the pawns under his command who were attacking.

After all, since he was certain in his heart that the Han army was setting up an ambush, the pawns became a burden for fleeing the battlefield.Only the two thousand cavalry soldiers under his command are the guarantee for him to return to Jiuquan County.

Regardless of other people's surprise, Huang Hua panicked.

After more than a hundred steps, they found the Kewu tribe who was ordered by Jia Xu to lead the cavalry to dismount and fight on foot. During this attack, the [-] cavalry under him were temporarily assigned to the Kewu tribe for dispatch.

"Jiang Duling, quickly order the soldiers to mount their horses and return to the camp!"

When he saw his cavalry governor, Huang Hua gave the order without waiting for the other party to salute.

That Jiang Duling is Huang Hua's confidant general.

Although he knew that this order was contrary to the general order of Jia Xu, the governor of Hexi, and that he was suspected of betraying his allies, he still took the order loudly and carried it out as he wished.

This incident also alarmed Ke Wu.

Or in other words, when Huang Hua drove his horse into the army formation, he had already strode over to ask what happened.

Ke Wu and Huang Hua have a good personal relationship.

When Geyinkewu's family migrated to Hexi at the beginning, Huang Hua sent envoys to make friends with each other.

Needless to say, the reason is that in order to fight against the Zhang family in Dunhuang, they wanted to invite the Kewu tribe to form an alliance.And the interests are clearly divided: if the Zhang family in Dunhuang is destroyed in the future, Xihai County (Juyan vassal state) will belong to Kewu, and Dunhuang County will belong to Huanghua.

At that time, Ke Wu, who was still relying on Jia Xu, naturally would not agree.

But the contact between the two became more and more frequent.

Therefore, Huang Hua didn't randomly find a reason to perfunctory, but directly stated all his speculations.

After hearing this, Ke Wu turned pale with shock.

So he walked with him.

He knew that if he was defeated, many Hexi generals would be safe as long as they were willing to surrender, but he was the one who murdered nearly ten thousand Han troops with Guo Huai before, and the Han troops would not be pardoned.

As for this move against General Jia Xu's order?
never mind.

After this battle, even if Jia Xu was spared and returned to Hexi, he would not have the strength to tell him what to do.

Therefore, an astonishing scene appeared on the battlefield.

The victory is still undecided, and the advantage is still there. However, Jia Xu, Pang Hui and others in the front are fighting bloody battles, but Huang Hua and Ke Wu in the rear are leading the lineage and fleeing in a hurry.

It also made Hu Boju, another cavalry supervisor, aware of it.

Unable to help, he was full of doubts, and immediately ordered his subordinates to stop for the time being.

He planned to send someone to inquire about the reason for Huang Hua's retreat, and to report to Jia Xu that something happened after the battle.

But soon, he also ordered his people to mount their horses immediately, and joined in the footsteps of Huang Hua and Ke Wu in fleeing.

Because he saw that there was a big banner embroidered with "Han" characters flying in the wind behind him, and further away there were banners embroidered with "Zheng", "Yan", "Wang" and "Zhang" floating from the ground one after another. Attacked in a siege.

And behind Jusai, there is a faint sound of horseshoes, it seems that Ma Dai's three thousand Xiliang cavalry are also rushing in.

If he doesn't run away again, he will be buried here.

Correct!
The [-] Han troops hiding in the west of Stone Mountain finally arrived.

The reason why the Guan Xing Department fought fiercely for more than three hours before the Han army arrived was because the infantry marching speed was really slow, and Zheng Pu had to spare time for Liao Hua to lead the army to occupy the passage west of Wushaoling, so as to avoid the invasion of Hexi. The coalition forces escaped.

However, it is not too late to arrive at this time.

"Punish rebellion!"

"Rejuvenate the Han Dynasty!"

When the various units of the Han army stepped onto the battlefield and began to clamor for the belief in a deadly battle, the battle situation suddenly reversed.

The soldiers of the Guan Xing tribe, who had few troops and had been fighting fiercely for a long time, had great morale, and they all shouted "reinforcement has arrived", and their faintly tired bodies gave birth to infinite strength again.

Liu Lin, who supervised the five hundred heavy infantry, also ordered the offensive to be stopped and formed an formation to fight.

He and the soldiers under his command were already out of breath.

Even if the Death Battalion is the latest to join the battle, when the heavy armor protects them, it will also curb the time of fighting, and it will not last long.

The Hexi soldiers who were attacking the fortifications also heard the movement behind them, so when they looked back, everyone was in a panic, and their morale collapsed thousands of miles away.

Some disregarded the general's scolding, and ran wildly, trying to flee as soon as possible; some looked around blankly, as if wondering why so many Han troops came suddenly and silently.

Jia Xu also stopped attacking.

Watching quietly, the Han army in red and black military uniforms snaked towards them like long insects, and their eyes were full of disappointment.

Then, he closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

I didn't worry about where the Han army came from.

Because at this moment the situation of the battle has been decided, no matter how entangled it is, it will not help.

He didn't pay attention to it, and the governor of the personal guard department urgently asked him to take advantage of the chaos on the battlefield to escape immediately.

Because he has nowhere to die.

The [-] Hexi Allied Forces were defeated in the first battle. Even if he fled back to Wuwei County, he lost his prestige and lost his people's hearts. In the end, when the Han army followed him, he was powerless and cut his own sword!
Why bother?

Over half a hundred years old, half a life of conquest, and the curtain call will be defeated by the army.

"This is the end of the matter, you can take care of yourself."

Opening his eyes again, Jia Xu's voice was calm, and he ordered the guards beside him, and then he stepped to the "Jia" flag and stood under the flag, tidied up his appearance, and waited for the end quietly.

He was calm and didn't want to do anything in vain.

Pang Hui, who was still young, did not want to die here.

He is not afraid of death, but his long-cherished wish is unfulfilled and he is unwilling.

However, when he looked around the battlefield, he found that he had nowhere to escape.

Not only was the empty camp in the rear, but the banner of the Han army had already been set up, but also because he had advanced too deep, and his trilogy was also damaged a lot, he was unable to turn around and fight his way out.

Therefore, he gritted his teeth.

Ke Wu, who once loved him as a brother and vowed to live and die together, can no longer be found on the battlefield!
If the cavalry under the supervision of Ke Wu thought of friendship, they would rush to meet him and escape from the east of Wushaoling to the Hexi Corridor together. They could also escape before the Han army completed the encirclement!

This unrighteous Qiang thief is also a beast!

hateful!
