Xiaoguangong

Chapter 209 Xiahou Ba

Han Sui's general Liang Xing marched extremely fast.

Before he was busy marching, he had no time to plunder, and when he reacted, Ma Chao sent someone to reprimand him, and he missed a great opportunity for no reason, which made him feel so angry that he had to find a place far away from the emperor to vent his anger Fang is the best policy.

To be honest, these troops with the Hu people as the main force have no big ambitions and long-term ambitions at all, and they don't know much about fighting. When Han Sui reminded them, they remembered that there were so many counties around them that hadn't been robbed, even though they were a little poorer. It is also better than rolling in near Chang'an.

So he hurried forward with a group of soldiers, and soon arrived in Lantian.

In the small town of Lantian, the officials in the city didn't dare to stop Liang Xing's soldiers and horses, Liang Xing scolded them, quickly opened the city gate, and knelt along the street to beg for surrender.

Liang Xing led people into the city in a hurry, asked them to take away all the account books, then opened the treasury in the name of expropriating grain, sealed up all the grain that had just been harvested in the autumn, and then knocked down doors from house to house, ordering them to hand over the safety money.

In a poor place like Lantian, the so-called big households didn’t have much wealth. After being blackmailed by a group of soldiers, they ran out of oil and water.

Let alone the poor.

There is no farming in this area, and there are still many self-cultivating farmers. The small farmers have some savings, which naturally attracts these barbarians to rob them vigorously.

For a time, there were screams and begging for mercy everywhere. Many people rose up to resist, but they lacked organization. They were definitely not the opponents of these murderous big-headed soldiers.

At this moment, Shen Yi and Chen Qun led a group of remnant soldiers to Lantian. Seeing that there seemed to be bandits raging in Lantian, Shen Yi was shocked and ordered his men to turn around.

But Liang Xing, who has led troops for many years, is still very cautious in this regard. Their scouts saw Shen Yi's subordinates coming and going from a distance, and immediately realized that this was a group of enemies. They quickly passed on Liang Xing, and Liang Xing immediately ordered A thousand cavalry went out of the city to intercept and kill this group of unknown enemies.

Shen Yi's subordinates are all infantry, how can they outrun these cavalry, seeing a group of cavalry Wu Yang Wu Yang attacking, Shen Yi and others were scared out of their wits and fled up the mountain one after another.

Liang Xing couldn't help laughing when he saw that such a group of pustule thieves came.

He didn't bother to care about these people, and ordered his subordinates to continue to pursue, while he led the army to continue to rob, so as not to leave a single grain of food for the people.

Just as he was in full swing, the detectives under him came to report again, saying that a group of soldiers and horses had come near Chang'an.

"Again?" He frowned and pondered for a moment, then hurriedly picked up the sword, and snorted, "Let's go out of the city and have a look."

This time it was a cavalry force of about 1000 people, all of them were armored, and the formation was quite extraordinary, which made Liang Xing frown.

Elite soldiers...

He had only 5000 men under his command, and he had sent 1000 men to hunt down Shen Yi before, and most of the soldiers in the city were looting, so he could gather only [-] soldiers in a hurry, so he might not be able to fight against these elites.

Liang Xing gritted his teeth, and asked someone to close the city gate first, so that the soldiers who were looting would stop quickly and prepare to meet the enemy.

But that group of soldiers probably discovered Liang Xing's intentions, so they suddenly accelerated their advance.

Liang Xing's scouting horses were unprepared for a moment, and they were beheaded one by one in a short while. Seeing their comrades die tragically, those brave and ruthless soldiers didn't listen to Liang Xing's order to close the door, and rode out one after another. They had to chop up the cavalry to vent their anger. .

The cavalry leader of this cavalry is named Xiahouba, the second son of Xiahouyuan. He is 25 years old this year and has followed Xiahouyuan in battle for more than eight years. He is a veteran on the battlefield.

Han Sui's siege of Chang'an was very loose. Before facing the main force of the Cao army, he did not want to kill the Cao army in Chang'an city. It would be best to force Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan to retreat in spite of difficulties. Greatly weakened, as long as you hold a few key points, you can tie with Cao Cao.

Therefore, Xiahouba was not stopped by Han Sui's army when he led the crowd to leave. They ran all the way to Lantian and found that Liang Xing had entered the city to plunder ahead of time.

I was still counting on resting here, but you might as well start grabbing it directly.

Looking from a distance, Xia Houba saw Liang Xing's subordinates fighting on their own. Some wanted to go out to fight, while others couldn't wait to close the door. He immediately realized that this group of disorderly soldiers was nothing more than that.

He made a decisive decision and shouted sharply:

"Come on, kill these thieves!"

"Captain, aren't we going to meet General Yun?"

"Do you want to starve our brothers to death if you don't occupy Lantian? Siege the city! I don't think any of these thieves dare to stop me!"

The young and energetic Xia Houba didn't pay attention to Liang Xing at all. He checked the various weapons he was carrying, and then immediately ordered the whole army to attack, and he must destroy Liang Xing on the spot.

Liang Xing was furious at the teasing of his subordinates, and when he saw Xia Houba launching an attack, his anger also rose.

Okay, you still dare to take the initiative to attack us?

Do you really think that this is the only soldier under my command?

He opened his eyes wide with anger, pointed at the spear in his hand, and said sharply:
"No more robbing! Get rid of the thieves in front of you first. These people are elite soldiers of Cao Jun, richer than those refugees!"

Hearing that there was money to be robbed, Liang Xing's soldiers all had golden eyes.

Following the roar of several generals, they rode their horses around in a big circle one after another, and arrows rained down one after another.

Liang Xing's barbarians were able to ride horses and shoot horses, just like eating and drinking water, so they were naturally quite superb.

However, because Liang Xing's Hu tribe lived in a very stable life for the past few years, the craftsmen have been confused about metallurgy and arrow shaft manufacturing. He raised his shield to block, the striker didn't stop at all, and had already collided with Liang Xing's soldiers.

Although there were not many troops under Xia Houba's command, they launched the attack after making sufficient preparations. Liang Xing's soldiers were dragged over in a hurry, and couldn't form a formation for a while. Chaos.

The soldiers of Cao Jun under Xiahouyuan's tent were already very dissatisfied with these Guanzhong thieves, and now they were fighting very hard. The two sides got mixed up, and there was no winner for a while.

Liang Xing didn't expect Xia Houba to be so brave, and he couldn't resist for a while.

He came here to make a fortune, and the source of his fortune was his soldiers. If he fought Xiahouba for too long, even if he won, he would be squeezed out and lose his status when he returned.

He gritted his teeth, and Le Malan shouted loudly:
"Who is this step? I'm here just to get rich, don't fight, please make it easier."

Xia Houba didn't seem to notice, he looked at Liang Xing with a greasy face from a distance, and slowly wiped the blood splattered on his face with his left and right hands, a hint of arrogance appeared in his eyes.

Xia Houyuan had a good family education, and he had told his son the truth of getting rid of evil. Xia Houba saw Liang Xing's subordinates look like this, and knew that they must be wantonly looting in Lantian and endangering the people, how could he let him go back alive.

"What a thief, how could I let you run away today! Eat me with a spear!"

He slammed the horse's belly, and rushed up to fight fiercely. Liang Xing was the ruthless man who beheaded Li Jue back then. Seeing that this child was so rampant that he didn't take himself seriously, he was also furious, and said coldly:

"Son, I want to see what you can do!"

Xia Houba fought more and more bravely, Liang Xing's subordinates were exhausted to cope, and gradually they were exhausted. Xia Houba secretly rejoiced. Seeing that he had already attacked Liang Xing, he heard the sound of horseshoes behind him. He turned his head subconsciously, but saw a group of men Unexpectedly, he came from the side and cut off Xia Houba's back without any effort.

Liang Xing actually has this scheme?

Xia Houba was taken aback, and the attack of him and the warriors around him immediately slowed down.

After all, Liang Xing was the fierce general who killed Li Jue back then. He was startled for a moment, then laughed, and immediately galloped his horse forward. Xiahouba subconsciously blocked it with the sharp iron spear. Immediately threw the spear in his hand.

He had obviously practiced this move before, and the spear maintained a relatively stable flying speed under his throwing. Xia Houba couldn't react in time, and was stabbed hard by the iron armor on his chest by the iron spear, and his face turned pale immediately.

Seeing that he didn't penetrate Xiahouba's body, Liang Xing immediately realized that he was a general of Cao Jun, otherwise he wouldn't be qualified to wear such a strong armor.

Well, it's actually a kid from the Cao family, who happened to use you as a sacrificial flag!

These thousand cavalry had gone out to chase and kill Shen Yi and the others before. Shen Yi and the others fled to the mountains, where most of them were killed. Seeing how pustulous the enemy was, these people didn't bother to go into the mountains to chase them, and hurried back to continue the plunder. Xia Houba.

Liang Xing was forced to be at a loss by Xia Houba before, because his soldiers were looting and there was no time to organize them.

But this time the returning soldiers saw that Liang Xing was trapped from a distance, and they were ready to fight. When they rushed into the enemy's formation, Xia Houba's subordinates were immediately unable to stop them, and they were immediately surrounded. life.

But Xia Houba was gradually unable to resist the enemy's flanking attack. He had few soldiers, but now he became more and more flustered, and beads of sweat were dripping from his forehead.

"Thief, don't dismount and accept the surrender!" Liang Xing changed to a spear, and seeing Xia Houba's flustered appearance, he couldn't help laughing.

He rode his horse and held out his spear, and ordered the whole army to attack, and must leave Xia Houba behind today.

Xia Houba couldn't resist more and more. Under the protection of his loyal guards, he already thought of running away. It can be seen from the ferocious smile on Liang Xing's face that this young general had a hint of arrogance and determination in his heart.

Don't run away, I'm going to fight you today, and I'm going to pull a back if I die!
He made a gesture to run, but suddenly turned his horse's head, taking advantage of the crowd, he abandoned his guards and rushed directly towards Liang Xing.

Liang Xing was even more ecstatic when he saw Xia Houba charging to the death.

"Ruzi, today I..."

Before his harsh words came out, the sound of horseshoes came from a distance.

He thought it was his companions who had arrived for reinforcements, but when he looked up, he saw a group of cavalry galloping towards him. The leader, an armored warrior, was galloping on a galloping horse, and had already separated from the soldiers around him. Liang Xing greeted him quickly!
