Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 559 Interception
The time for the decisive counterattack was approaching, but Qin Lang couldn't sleep.Although on the surface he is calm and calm, and looks like a general in front of the army, but in fact he is still so nervous that he can't sleep.

With 8000 troops lacking horses and armor, we are going to counterattack more than 1 Dangxiang Qiang people. There is no such thing as who is strong and who is weak. Now both sides are scarred and exhausted. Everyone is supporting. Who can stand and laugh until they stand After that, no one can tell, especially since there are still 8000 people around the Qiang people, and it is unknown when they will appear.

Liang Jianfang proposed to light the beacon smoke and summon the Diezhou soldiers and horses to come for reinforcements.But the problem is that Xi Junmai has already used his warrant to transfer basically all the soldiers and horses of Diezhou to Minzhou, and now there are not many soldiers and horses left in Diezhou. At this time, there are eight thousand Qiang people in Diezhou. If you dispatch troops, you may be intercepted and attacked on the road.

Moreover, Qin Lang expected that the Qiang people would withdraw soon, even if they sent troops to help, it would be too late.

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, and the morale of the army is not bad at the moment, so we can only fight.

Let him just watch the injured Tuoba wolf leave from under his nose, Qin Lang couldn't do it, although his reason told him that he should not seek the gains and losses of the moment, but plan for the long term, but he just couldn't swallow that breath.

The tens of feet tall human head Jingguan deeply stimulated Qin Lang, and the Qiang River is still blocked by corpses.

This revenge must be avenged, and I can't wait.

The night wind was howling, and it was getting colder.

Liang Jianfang came over in armor, "Even Duke Wei can't sleep?"

"Well, although I'm sleepy, I can't sleep, so come up and blow some air."

"Judging from the wind, it seems that it is going to snow."

The north whimpered, and it was winter.

Liang Jianfang hesitated to speak.

"If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Two days later, I don't feel very sure about attacking Tucheng at night. Although there are thousands of troops in the reorganization, they can be put together temporarily. I'm afraid there is no tacit cooperation and it will be difficult to give orders. In case, I mean in case, then our team Go, but never come back."

"Are you afraid?" Qin Lang asked with a smile.

Liang Jianfang straightened his chest, "I'm afraid of a bird. I just think that the five-star fort needs someone to stay behind, and Duke Wei should stay behind. With you in the fort, even if the brothers fail, there is still a way out."

"Are you afraid that I will be captured alive by Tuoba Qiang?"

Liang Jianfang said sternly, "This operation is very risky, please ask Wei Gong to stay behind."

······
There were rapid footsteps.

Zhang Chao climbed to the top of the bell and drum watchtower, panting.

"Ranger urgent report, there seems to be a change in Tucheng."

"A change?" Qin Lang's expression changed, "No, Tuoba Chici is going to run away."

Liang Jianfang turned his head and looked in the direction of Tucheng, which was only two miles away, condescending. If he could see the movement in the city clearly during the day, but it is night now, and it is windy tonight.

It was pitch black in Tucheng, and no sound could be heard.

"If the old thief Tuoba wants to run, he should run during the daytime, and there are no lights in the Tucheng, it's not like that."

However, Qin Lang had already turned around and walked down, "There is no light, so it's fine if you can't hear any movement. This further shows that the old thief Tuoba wants to escape at night, so hurry up and send an order to prepare for the battle."

"We must not let the old thief Tuoba go!"

When Qin Lang went down the ladder, just as he got down from the tower, he saw another soldier coming to report. The rangers approached for reconnaissance, and found that there were quite a few noises in the pitch-black earth city.

"Report, a Qiang cavalry has quietly left the city."

"All cavalry mount their horses!" Qin Lang called.

Hearing that Tuoba Qiang was going to run away, all the on-duty and resting people in the fortress quickly assembled, all with red eyes.

Liang Jianfang once again asked Qin Lang to sit in the castle, and he led the army to attack.

Qin Lang waved his hands, "Don't worry, keep quiet, let the Qiang people run for a while, and then we will cut him in the middle, so that they can't advance or retreat."

If they are too hasty, the Qiang people will definitely turn around and retreat back to the Tucheng, so it is better to plan and kill them first, and then kill them after they leave the Tucheng.

Qin Lang got on the horse and tried to calm himself down.

This war came suddenly, but he would not miss it.

Check the weapon again.

The pro-military guards guarded the surroundings loyally.

The rangers let out one by one, secretly keeping an eye on the movements of the Qiang people.

Waiting quietly, extremely tormented.

After a long time, the rangers finally came back and reported that the Tuoba Qiang people had all evacuated from Tucheng and were quietly fleeing westward.

"Zhang Chao, you bring a battalion of infantry and immediately enter the Tucheng. I have only one order for you. Guard the Tucheng. Don't let the Qiang people retreat into the Tucheng and cut off their way back. No matter what the battle outside is like, don't worry about it. .”

Zhang Chao hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in response, and took the order to leave.

"Emissary Liang, you lead the remaining infantry and follow the cavalry I lead out of the city. I will lead the cavalry to charge and intercept the Qiang people, and you lead the infantry to surround and strangle them."

"Wei Gong, let me take Qingqi."

"Listen to my orders!"

"Yes."

The city gate opened, the suspension bridge rose, Qin Lang took the lead, and rushed out.

There were many cavalry in the city but few horses. Qin Lang could only cobble together 5000 light cavalry, followed by Liang Jianfang with [-] troops. The spearmen and some archers, at this moment, all struggled to spread their legs and followed closely behind.

The Qiang people were fleeing secretly, without holding up torches, they were advancing in the dark, and they were not moving fast.

Qin Lang didn't raise his fire either, and chased after him with the faint starlight.

Everyone was holding back a fire.

Although many soldiers only wore iron helmets and didn't even have a piece of armor, some soldiers only carried a horizontal knife and didn't even have a face shield.

The 8000 people evenly distributed the equipment of the original 500 people, and even moved out all the equipment in the arsenal, so they could barely have a weapon in hand, but everyone was fighting with high spirits.

Fighting broke out suddenly in the dark night.

Qin Lang led a thousand light cavalry to catch up with the Qiang people, stabbed them obliquely, cut the Qiang people in half after a fierce charge, then Qin Lang turned around and charged forward again.

Qingqi rushed left and right to kill, in and out of the fleeing Qiang team.

Tuoba Chici ran away in a hurry, and retreated at night, not daring to raise fire or make any big movements. More than 1 people pulled their horses into a long snake.

Sudden attack, difficult to care about.

After a chaotic fight, the Qiang people finally raised their fire. Since they can't sneak away, let's fight.

Tuoba Chici sent his own soldiers to pass orders in the dark, trying to gather the team that was pulling the snake together.

Liang Jianfang came running with 5000 troops, without saying a word, he began to slash and kill with horizontal knives and spears.

Combat quickly shifts from a raid to an all-out melee, with me in you and you in me, and it's hard to separate.

Tuoba Chici also found that his order could not be conveyed at all, and it was a complete chaos.

"Retreat to Tucheng!"

Seeing that the Qiang people were retreating steadily after being killed by the Tang people, Tuoba Chici also panicked, and could only issue the last order, regardless of whether it could be delivered or executed.

Withdrew to Tucheng, hoping to retreat into Tucheng and regroup.

If I had known this before, I might as well have waited for dawn to retreat openly and be more prepared. Now, instead of being killed by Tang Jun, I was caught off guard and worried.

"I have more than 1 horses, and Qin Lang's defeated soldiers and prisoners together are only a few thousand. Even if we are attacked by surprise, we are outnumbered." Tuoba Chici comforted himself in this way.

He called Tuoba Sitou and Tuoba Xigan, who have been deprived of the right to command the army by Chi Chi since Lian Lian was defeated, and have been with him all the time.

Now, Tuoba Chici pulled out a thousand of his personal guards and handed them over to the two. He asked the two to contain Tang Qi and stabilize the team.

Sitou and Xigan led the army to fight back, but when they turned around, they found that Chi Ci had led the forward and continued to run west without hesitation.

Chi Ci actually escaped like this, and before leaving, he asked the two of them to cover in the rear.

Sito gritted his teeth and frowned thinly.

in the dark.

Qin Lang led the cavalry of the pro-army guards, and rushed over fiercely.

Tuoba Si recognized at the first glance that the leader was Qin Lang, and Xi Gan also saw it.For a moment in their minds, the idea of ​​rushing to capture Qin Lang alive and then turning the tide of battle and winning came up.

But in the next moment, when they saw Qin Lang and his cavalry all the way covered in hoods, and the Qiang people along the way fled to avoid chaos, they all understood that the general situation was over.

Thinking of the Tuoba camp under Jishi Mountain being swept away by Qin Qiong, the two felt a sense of sadness in their hearts.

Turning his head to look at the other side, Tuoba Chici had already abandoned them far away, and disappeared in the darkness.

"I'm going to ask Duke Wei to surrender, how about you?" Tuoba Si looked at Xigan with a guarded look in his eyes.

"Let's go together." Tuoba Xigan let out a long sigh. This once was Tuoba Chici's confidant general, who started as Chici's guard captain, but now he only feels Chici's abandonment and ruthlessness.

"Okay, let's go together!"

Qin Lang led his troops to charge to kill.

A cavalry in front blocked the way. The equipment was very elite, and the men and horses were rarely kept in order.

Suddenly, a white flag was raised in front of the team.

Then under the torch, I saw two Qiang generals, led all the Qiang off their horses, knelt down on the ground together, and shouted for surrender.

Qin Lang reined in the horse, and the leopard head rushed towards the Qiang people with inertia, and the people stood up, neighing again and again.

"Tuoba Sitou, Tuoba works hard, begging to Duke Wei!"

"I'm waiting to come down!"

Qin Lang glanced at the two generals, "Are you the two I defeated in Songzhou City?"

"It's me waiting."

"Where is Tuoba Chici?"

"Take Qianqi and flee westward."

Qin Lang was a little surprised that Tuoba Chici was so decisive?The battle was in full swing, and they actually abandoned the army and fled?
But when Qin Lang looked back, he found that the tens of thousands of Qiang people behind him had already been rushed and killed by the Tang army, and fled in all directions.

"The governor accepts your surrender."

Before dawn, the battle was over.

Tuoba Chi resigned from the army and fled, and the two generals Tuoba Xigan and Tuoba Sitou surrendered in front of the battle, making other Qiang people who had already collapsed lose their fighting spirit and surrendered one after another.

Qin Lang originally thought it would be a bloody battle, but who expected it to end after less than half an hour.
