Chapter 43
"The victory and loss of this battle have been decided!" When Chen Qingzhi saw the first Qiang man escape, he made a judgment; the two armies confronted each other, and the killing and injury were mostly caused by the defeat, while the Qiang man rushed forward with his blood and courage. Now, under Pan Feng's intimidation, all his courage was lost. The first one escaped was not far from the defeat of the entire army!
"Catch up! Don't let them go and send letters to the Huns!" Li You also pulled out his long sword from his waist and rushed forward. This fierce battle on the battlefield made his adrenal hormone rise sharply. The road is long, and it is certain that it will be his turn to go into battle in person. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to pursue the enemy first!
So the few guards who were originally guarding him rushed forward, leaving only Chen Qingzhi and Li You who arranged to protect his followers to guard the mission's supplies.
The martial arts value of twenty-three o'clock doesn't sound very good, but it's enough for these young and strong Qiang people who can't even eat enough and lose their courage to fight back! The sword technique that he had learned for many days with Xu Guang came in handy at this time. The eight-sided Han sword carefully created by a famous swordsman in the great Han Dynasty swept across the back of the fleeing Qiang people like lightning.
The sharp sword blade easily cut off his neck without any hindrance. The Qiang man didn't even have time to cry out for pain, and his head left his shoulders, and a blood ray gushed out.
Without even savoring the feeling of killing for the first time, Li You met the second Qiang man again. He leaned back and lay flat on the horse's back to avoid the attacking scimitar. The sword was pulled from bottom to top and directly opened the opponent! The Qiang man's chest and abdomen were wide open and he could not die for a while. He could only let out a terrible cry in vain, which further shook the courage that the Qiang man had already exhausted.
"Lord is mighty!" Pan Feng, who had just cut off three heads, turned around and saw this scene, and couldn't help but cheer.
"The Lord is mighty!" Tang Yi's father also shouted, and he shouted loudly at the evil boys, "The Lord is going to fight in person, why don't you fight hard?"
At this time, it was not far from the war at the end of Qin Dynasty. Dong Zhongshu had not been valued by Emperor Wu of Han, and Confucianism had not yet become the ruling theory of the Central Plains! The spirit of martial arts has not been erased and is still deeply engraved in the bones of the Han people! It is precisely with this spirit that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing had the glory of expelling the Huns, and Chen Tang's heroic spirit of "those who offend me and strong Han will be punished even if they are far away", which led to these rangers who are willing to follow Li You to go deep into the enemy's territory to fight for a wealthy battle.
Seeing that the envoys were in person, how could they not take out their strength to take advantage of their breasts? They sang songs loudly and waved swords to kill the Qiang people.
These songs made Li You's blood rush, and he couldn't help but sing a song:
"I have a long sword to hold a battle with my son. The road is long.
I share the same enemy and share the same life and death. I fight with my son and my heart is not sluggish.
I stomp the swallows and chase the beards. I fight with my son, and sing fearlessly."
This is a popular military song in the Han army after Dou Xian, a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, defeated the Northern Huns, climbed Yanran Mountain, and carved stones to record the merits; Yanran also became the supreme glory in the history of Chinese military together with the champion Hou Huo Qubing's Fenglang Juxu!
Today, Li You sang this song to encourage the soldiers. Don’t see that the Huns are now rampant. One day, my Han army will step down their Yanran Mountains; with me fighting with you, whether it is the Huns or the Qiang people, these Hu people will eventually be swept away by our army!
"I have a long sword to hold a battle with my son. The road is long.
I share the same enemy and share the same life and death. I fight with my son and my heart is not sluggish.
I stomp the swallows and chase the beards. I fight with my son, and sing fearlessly."
This song is catchy, and the evil teenagers in Chang'an quickly sang in unison with Li You. Even Chen Qingzhi in the rear did not feel like he started to beat them!
This military song seemed to add a morale buff to them. The Han soldiers became more and more brave as they fought, while the Qiang people kept retreating in the song, and were killed in a short while! Dozens of people who were lucky enough to die were surrounded by Pan Feng and Li You!
"Tell them, put down their weapons and knelt down and beg for mercy, and they can beg for mercy for the time being!" Li You said to Tang Yifu, and then Tang Yifu said twice in the language of the Xiongnu and Qiang people. The Qiang people did not dare to fight again, and they all turned over and dismounted, threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground, with their foreheads tightly pressed against the ground, and they didn't even dare to look at these brave Han troops.
"Tie them up and hold the horses! Take a rest for a while, and we will go to their tribe later!" After saying that, Li You ordered people to count the results of the war, seventy or eighty-year-old Qiang people were killed and eighty, and only about forty people remained intact!
There were only a few soldiers on the Han army who were slightly injured. They ignored the doctors in the delegation and bandaged them with medicine, laughing loudly and boasting about their heroic performance just now.
For those injured Qiang people, Li You was too lazy to waste her medicinal materials, so he ordered people to come to them and just send them to accompany the tribe members who had taken a step earlier! Then, with the help of Tang Yifu, he asked about the situation of their tribe.
After a while, Li You stood up and shouted loudly, "My sons, are you hungry? Do you want to eat meat and drink wine?"
"I think! The messenger! After eating dry food for more than a day, my mouth faded out of the birds!" After several days of contact, these evil boys knew that Li You had no airs, so they became careless when speaking, "Is the messenger going to invite us to drink and eat meat?"
"It's not my request!" Li You kicked the prisoner who had just answered, "Just said just now that their tribe had already started slaughtering sheep and preparing wine to celebrate for them! But now they were defeated by us, so is this wine of celebration going to be wasted?"
"Haha! No waste! Although their people are almost dead, aren't we still there?" The evil teenagers laughed loudly, "We're going to help them eat, so we can't let them prepare for a silence, right?"
"Okay! Then what are you waiting for?" Li You long sword pointed to the direction of the Qiang tribe, "See, the smoke of roasted lamb has risen! Let's not let the master wait for a long time when we are guests!"
The evil teenagers all turned over their horses, and continued to sing the military songs that Li You had just taught them, while driving the prisoners to the Qiang tribe!
When they were about to reach the tribe, Chen Qingzhi ordered his troops to divide into teams, surrounded the tribe tightly, cut off their way to the south to seek help from the Huns, and then slowed down their horses and forced them to the Qiang camp.
Hum? The sound is wrong! Dian Liang, who was dreaming of making money in the tent, felt abnormal and ran to the camp gate. He happened to meet Li You and Pan Feng and Chen Qingzhi rushed over.
