Chapter 99 Murder in the Night

Although it was night at this time, the full moon was hanging high, and the bright and clear moonlight reflected on the earth, and the road surface was reflected white, but it did not affect the vision at all.

Twenty miles to the north of Yinguan City, there is a not-so-spacious official road. On both sides of the official road are slightly higher hillsides. If it is daytime and there is a view, it is naturally not suitable for ambushes. But now, in the dark, It can be said that this is an excellent place to ambush.

On the hillsides on both sides, thousands of Hun cavalry were ambushing each, and in front of the official road, there were still thousands of cavalry waiting. .

The Huns cavalry on the hillside, at this time, they bent their bows and set their arrows, and their horses were placed behind them. Under the moonlight, they all focused on the official road below.

After a while, Qu Li led the Qiang cavalry under his command and came slowly. In the middle of the cavalry team, they were pulling [-] shi of grain and grass.In order to be able to successfully lure Qu Lihu Naxie to take the bait, Wei Xiaokuan also spent a lot of money, and Wei Xiaokuan gave Qu Li a full [-] shi of food and grass.

As expected, Qu Li took the bait, and as soon as he got the [-] stones of grain and grass, he couldn't wait to rush back to Hetao, so as not to have long nights and dreams, and be discovered by Hu Naxie and Yu Wensheng, and he would have to get the [-] stones of grain and grass alone.

"The Han people are really treacherous. They tempted me with [-] stones of grain and grass, and wanted to make Xiongnu Xianbei deal with me. They borrowed knives to kill people, but they didn't know that I, Quli, had already seen through your treacherous tricks. I got the [-] stones of grain and grass for nothing. When the time comes, I will return to Hetao , our Qiang people can take advantage of the situation and rise up!" Qu Li was riding on the horseback with a joyful expression on his face.

Qu Li led his men gradually into the range of the Huns cavalry ambush.

Just when Qu Li was triumphant, countless arrows suddenly poured in from the hillsides on both sides like a torrential rain.

Qu Li was at the forefront of the team, and when countless arrows rained, Qu Li was the first to bear the brunt. In the dark night, he couldn't see the direction of the arrows rain, only the sound of countless piercing sounds could be heard.

"Ah!" There was wind in Qu Li's ears, and he felt that his body was pierced by several arrows. Qu Li screamed and fell off his horse immediately.The leader of the Qiang tribe who was still high-spirited and complacent just now died suddenly.

"Kill with me!"

Quli was killed first, and the Qiang cavalry immediately fell into chaos. First, they were shot and killed by the bows and arrows of the Huns cavalry. Thousands of Qiang were killed immediately. Hu Naxie's confidant led thousands of cavalry to kill, and then the Hun cavalry on the high slopes on both sides also put down their bows and arrows, rode horses and held torches, and charged down.A total of [-] cavalry rushed out.

"No, enemy attack!"

"The leader is dead, what should we do?"

The Qiang cavalry was in chaos, and no one was in command, and they didn't know what to do. In addition, the army was holding countless grain and grass, and the carriages filled with grain and grass blocked it. The Qiang could not stop the resistance for a while.

After a while, the Qiang people were surrounded by [-] cavalry regiments of the Huns, leaving only one way back.

"The Huns? Let's go back and ask Yu Wensheng for help!"

"How did the Huns break the covenant and attack us? Why did they ambush here in advance?"

"I can't care so much anymore, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, the Xianbei people will not sit back and watch us be wiped out! Hurry up and go back to the original road!"

Qu Li had a horse, and several nobles of the Qiang nationality stepped forward to command.

There was only one gap, and the Qiang cavalry turned their horses one after another, preparing to return to the city of Yinguan and seek help from Yu Wensheng's Xianbei army.

But from the south, there was a rumbling sound of horseshoes.The faces of several Qiang nobles suddenly changed.

After a while, Hu Naxie arrived with [-] Huns cavalry.

It didn't take long for the Qiang cavalry to break through this gap, and they were about to call out the [-] cavalry led by that evil.

"Hunaxie, what do you want to do? Is this your order, or Yu Fuluo's order?" A Qiang nobleman glared at Hunaxie.

"You colluded with the Han army, and you still ask me what I want to do? Don't say much, kill me!" Hu Naxie sneered, it seems that Ye Changmeng has many dreams, and hastily ordered.

Immediately, 1 Huns cavalry surrounded more than [-] Qiang cavalry regiments.

Twenty miles to the north of Yinguan City, flames shot up into the sky, and a massacre started immediately.

And just after Qu Lihu Naxie left Yinguan City for about a few hours, a cavalry in Qiang costume rushed into Yuwensheng's camp.

"Quick, I want to see your leader!"

"Hu Naxie colluded with the Han army and took [-] stones of food and grass from the Han army. He has returned to Hetao and slaughtered our two clans! He wants to be the Shanyu himself and dominate Hetao!"

"Now our leader has led his troops to chase after him, and please lead Yuwen to quickly lead his troops to rescue!"

Yu Wensheng heard him begging to see him, so he didn't dare to be careless, and immediately summoned him: "You said Hu Naxie colluded with the Han army? Then why didn't your leader inform me before chasing him? How dare you chase him alone?"

"The leader of my family is impatient. Hu Naxie colluded with the Han people and wanted to return to Hetao to kill Yu Fuluo Shanyu, but was informed by one of Yu Fuluo's confidants under his command. As soon as the leader learned about it, he was very anxious and immediately led his troops to chase after him! I was able to come back to ask for help after I broke through the encirclement in blood!" The Qiang cavalryman said with a sad face.

Yu Wensheng narrowed his eyes and saw that the Qiang cavalryman spoke the Qiang language and was covered in blood. Combined with Qu Li's character, it shouldn't seem like a fake.

"The Xiongnu has [-] soldiers and horses. Even if we work together, we can't defeat him. What's more, your tribe is probably wiped out now. I just want to help you, and I'm afraid I have the intention to use force!" Yu Wensheng acted cautiously and did not want to act rashly .

"Chief Yuwen, Hu Naxie is arrogant, thinking that he can control all the 1 soldiers and horses, but he doesn't want more than 3 soldiers to stop him at all. Now our leader leads [-] soldiers and horses to fight more than [-] of them. The enemy, but you can hold on for a while!"

"If the leader sees death and refuses to save him, after Hu Naxie kills our troops, he might encircle with the Han army and attack your troops!"

Yu Wensheng thought to himself when he heard the words: "There are still 3 soldiers and horses who don't listen to Hunaxie? I used to have [-] against more than [-]. I should be able to secure the victory. When the Huns and Qiangs fall, I, Xianbei, can rise in Hetao Now, it will be no worse than his big Xianbei tribes, and maybe even reappear the glory of the Tanshihuai era!"

Yu Wensheng's eyes gradually became firmer, and he said with a straight expression: "Go down and rest first, and I will lead the army to rescue your leader immediately."

"Thank you, leader, thank you, leader!" The Qiang cavalry immediately knelt down and thanked him.

Not long after, Yu Wensheng led [-] cavalrymen under his command and headed north. However, they were also afraid of alarming the Han army, and they also entangled the leather on the horseshoes. They did not dare to gallop until they were a certain distance from Yinguan City. .

In the darkness, Wei Xiaokuan stood in front of the previous Qiang cavalry.

"My lord, you said that after I helped you this time, you let my brother go, and please keep your word!" The Qiang cavalry said helplessly.

"You know some secrets of my Jin Yiwei, and you still want to get away safely? You choose to die or join Jin Yiwei!" Wei Xiaokuan was extremely domineering, and looked at the Qiang cavalry coldly.

This Qiang cavalryman and his younger brother were originally patrolling soldiers under Quli's command, but Wei Xiaokuan ordered Jin Yiwei to capture them late at night, and used his brother as a threat for this time's secret use.

"I, Qiu Dun, am willing to serve my lord, and please let my brother go!" The Qiang cavalry fell to their knees.

Wei Xiaokuan not only wanted to develop the Jinyiwei forces in the Central Plains, but also discovered the strength of the foreign Jinyiwei, and prepared in advance. Wei Xiaokuan saw that the foreign cavalry was quite clever, so he should plan to use them for several purposes and open up the foreign Jinyiwei forces.

"Okay, as long as you are willing to work hard, your little brother will have nothing to worry about in his life!" Wei Xiaokuan patted Qiu Dun on the shoulder and said.

When Wei Xiaokuan subdued the alien cavalry, the gates of Yinguan City opened wide, and Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi, and Xia Houdun led five thousand cavalry and galloped towards the north.
