Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 615 Dividends
The passionate battle drums sounded again, even on the noisy battlefield, it was extraordinarily noticeable.

The morale of the Qiang people who were burnt to death by the fire collapsed, and the Sirius came out to fight Liang Xiao. Now the drums were beating loudly, but the sound of the horns disappeared. There is no doubt that it was the defeat of the Sirius.Although it sounds unbelievable, Sirius was defeated by Liang Xiao once before, and it would not be surprising to be defeated again.

Not to mention the soaring flames and billowing black smoke.Water and fire are ruthless, no matter how many troops there are, once encountering water and fire, all advantages may be burned to nothing.

Many Qiang people began to flee.Liang Xiao's killing moves came out one after another, and there was no hope of winning. The life and death of Sirius was unknown, and if the fight continued, who knew what powerful moves Liang Xiao would have.The heat had already spread from the northern valley to the middle, and if there was another fire from the south, it would be difficult for them to escape.

The Qiang people wanted to escape, but it was not so easy to escape. Thousands of people crowded together, screaming and unable to move.

Down the hillside, Wu Dan's old department looked at Liang Xiao approaching slowly, dumbfounded and at a loss.Pang Shuo slapped his horse out of the battle, came to them, and shouted: "The descendant will not die!"

The knights were distraught, and one knight slid off his horse, fell to one knee, and raised his bow with both hands.

Another knight slid off his horse and knelt in surrender.

After a while, all the more than 200 riders dismounted and bowed their heads.

Pang Shuo went straight forward, walked into the formation, swung his iron knife, and chopped off the big sheepskin banner embroidered with Sirius.A Qiang knight stepped forward, carrying a large banner with a spear, and galloped towards Batu and the others.Another Qiang knight took Wu Dan's head from Liang Xiao and followed.

"Heavenly Wolf confers the head—" two knights, one behind the other, shouted loudly in front of the Qiang formation.Although they can speak Chinese, but at this moment, they are speaking Qiang language, so that all the Qiang soldiers can hear clearly.

"Sirius grants the head—"

Batu was ecstatic.He had already thought that Liang Xiao would win, but he didn't expect the victory to come so fast and so suddenly.Sirius had just rushed down the slope, before the battle started, Sirius died.It seemed that Sirius came here not to fight, but to die.

Batu turned to face the Qiang soldiers. "What are you waiting for, the Han warriors have already killed Sirius, are we cowards? Warriors of the Yuezhi, follow me—"

Batu kicked his horse out of battle and charged towards the Qiang people on the south side of the valley.Dozens of warriors who had followed Aliusu to fight in all directions also followed closely behind with enthusiasm.Immediately afterwards, March also gave the order to attack, leading nearly a thousand knights from the Yuezhi tribe to charge.

Seeing that the Han army had won a decisive victory and the Yuezhi people rushed to the front again, Mosu of the Yellow Ox Tribe couldn't hold back anymore.Don't dare to chew hard bones, and dare not hit a dog in the water?This is a good time to grab the spoils, whoever lags behind is a fool.

"Warriors of the Scalper Tribe, come with me—" Mosu raised his knife and shouted, patting his horse out.

"Kill—" the soldiers of the Yellow Ox Tribe were elated and rushed out after Mosu.

With the Yuezhi people and the scalper tribe as examples, the other tribes couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed out one after another, scrambling to kill them.One by one, they flattered their horses and galloped wildly, raising their knives and shouting, looking like brave warriors.

Seeing the Yuezhi people and Qiang people marching out of battle, the soldiers of the Han army operating the ballista immediately started shooting in depth to clear the way for them.

The Qiang people were all crowded together, and almost none of these iron arrows was wasted, and all of them were shot down.The Qiang people were even more flustered. Hearing the sound of hoofbeats and seeing the flying battle flags, they didn't know how many people were about to rush over, so they just ran away.If someone stands in front of you, blocking the escape route, cut him down.

The army was defeated like a mountain, and these Qiang people began to slaughter each other in order to escape.

Batu and the others rushed in front of their formation, but instead of rushing directly in, they used the speed of their horses to gallop back and forth in front of the Qiang formation, and shot a rain of arrows into the Qiang formation, causing the Qiang people to become even bigger. The panic drove the Qiang people to flee westward.

The retreat of the Qiang people became more and more uncontrollable, and countless people turned their horses' heads and started to run wildly.At first, they could follow the rules of retreat, avoiding the main formation, and fleeing to both sides. Later, more and more people fled, and the road became narrower and narrower, so they couldn't care less, and simply rushed straight to the main formation.

Seeing this scene, King Loulan and the others on the podium were completely dumbfounded.Sirius came out, not only failed to save the battle, but caused even greater defeat.They want to know where Sirius is, but they have no way of knowing, the battlefield is in chaos, and the flames are soaring, where to find the shadow of Sirius.

King Loulan and others also wanted to run away, but they were watched by the old troops left behind by Wu Dan and could not leave the podium.Although each had their own personal guards, they did not dare to act rashly in the face of these desperadoes.

The army's main formation was gradually disintegrated by the impulse of the soldiers who only cared about fleeing for their lives, and in the end they could only drift with the tide and join the fleeing team.

Liang Xiao and Xu Le stood on the hillside, looked at the chaotic scene in the valley, and smiled at each other.At this point, even if the gods are reborn, they will not be able to save them.The overall situation has been decided, so leave it to Batu to hunt down and kill the defeated soldiers. This is also a good opportunity for him to make meritorious deeds.

"Your Majesty, it depends on the first battle. Congratulations."

"The meritorious service of supervising the army is indispensable." Liang Xiao felt relieved. "If it weren't for the supervising army to appease the Qiang people and appease the people, and if it wasn't for the supervising army's great help and food and soldiers, even if I have three heads and six arms, I would not be able to complete this task."

Xu Le stroked his beard and smiled.He and Liang Xiao also had a great time cooperating. This time the task was completed beautifully, and it was almost inevitable that he would be rewarded.He has already begun to think about how to write memorials to report success.

In Xingxing Gorge, Guo Wenbin was sitting on a boulder, slapping his thighs, with a happy expression on his face.Although he hadn't had a good rest for several days and nights, his hair was sticking together, and his eyes were bloodshot, his expression was quite excited.

After several days of hard work, after severely injuring more than 3000 old Hunxie who came to support them, they killed all the hundreds of Hun cavalry trapped in the valley.Back and forth, after more than ten days of fierce fighting, they killed more than [-] Huns with [-] Han troops and [-] Qiang troops, which can be described as a great victory.

The ballista is a well-deserved hero.In front of the ballista shooting, the Huns were cut down batch after batch like wheat, and they were powerless to fight back.When the Han and Qiang cavalry went into battle to hunt them down, they were usually routed.

Deng Guobin was also very tired, but he was not as excited as Guo Wenbin.After verifying the results of the battle, his mind had already flown to other places, he dozed against the stone, and began to think about how to make more efficient weapons.

Guo Wenbin didn't bother him, and ordered a few soldiers to take care of Deng Guobin, and walked down the valley by himself.

The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, and all the horses and armor had to be collected. Hexi was a little richer than the desert, but far worse than the Central Plains, and life was a little tighter.The money from the Huns was also picked up one by one, not even an ordinary small coin was spared.

Huangfuqi took a few followers and set up a stall in the valley to buy those valuable treasures.Little things add up, and he also bought a lot of things.Seeing Guo Wenbin approaching, he went up to meet him.

"How about it, old man, have you taken back those baits?"

"It's about [-]% taken back." Huangfuqi pointed to the package with a smile on his face.

"Only fifty percent?" Guo Wenbin frowned. "Those Qiang people are too greedy."

"Don't worry about it." Huangfuqi stopped Guo Wenbin. "The Qiang people are poor, so they are inevitably greedy. If you want them to work hard, you have to give them some benefits. If there is no benefit, who will give you hard work? It doesn't matter if I earn a little less. If Hexi is pacified, it will grow when I make money in the future."

Guo Wenbin turned his anger into joy. "The old man is knowledgeable and he is a big businessman. Don't worry, the prince will not treat you badly. After Nanshan is pacified, Khotan's jade business will definitely leave you a share. That is the real big business. "

Huangfu was overjoyed. "Then I'll just wait. Wen Bin, it's not that I rely on the old to sell the old. Your father has been in business for half his life, and this time is the most discerning. Look at you, following Junhou, not only did your father bring the business to Chang'an, but you also If you become an official, you will be named a Marquis. This is something we dare not even think about."

Guo Wenbin laughed. "Old man, you don't have to be polite. In terms of eyesight, you are no worse than my father. Okay, okay, you don't have to beat around the bush. My Guo family will never interfere with Nanshan's business. How about it?"

"It's a word."

"It's a word."

Liang Xiao watched a dozen Qiang people put the stele back, and then sat down.

The original picture painted with blood on the stele has been washed away, and three Chinese characters are engraved on it, which are Xu Le's handwritten seal script: Sha Po Lang.

Wu Yin's head was pickled and passed around the world, and his body was buried on the spot, on the hillside where he died in battle.Liang Xiao also specially erected a monument for him: The place where the archer Sirius was buried was also written by Xu Le.

Under the stele of killing the wolf, Liang Xiao began to meet the kings of Nanshan.When the stele was erected, these people stood below and watched the stele being put back to its original place with their own eyes. The cracks were still there and the blood was gone, but the story of this stele will always be engraved in their hearts.It doesn't matter if they don't remember, Ma Rong and others have compiled this battle into a song, and taught children to sing it, which is very popular.

The first one to come up was King Loulan.

King Loulan originally had a chance to escape, but unfortunately he was trapped on the podium by Sirius' old troops, and was captured alive by Batu and became a prisoner.He felt very wronged, but he had to bow his head under the low eaves, so he had no choice but to pinch his nose and go forward to see him swallowing his anger.

Liang Xiao lowered his head, brushed the dust off his legs, and turned a blind eye.Huang Ruo snorted, "Report your name."

King Loulan had no choice but to declare his name, but he still refused to kneel down.

"Loulan, what a place." Liang Xiao raised his eyelids and gave King Loulan a wink. "How many people and soldiers does Loulan have?"

This is what King Loulan was waiting for.The countries of the Nanshan Mountains often fight each other, and only those with strength can survive.If Liang Xiao wanted to control Nanshan, he needed someone as capable as him to cooperate.It was also because of this that he had the confidence to negotiate terms with Liang Xiao.

"There are 5000 or [-] households in Loulan, nearly [-] people, and [-] knights..."

Liang Xiao interrupted King Loulan. "I mean now."

"Now... now?" King Loulan was a little embarrassed.There must not be so many soldiers now. King Ruoqiang killed a thousand Loulan knights in his first charge.Coupled with the subsequent defeat, there will be some losses. "This...isn't clear yet, I won't know until I go back and take stock."

"I have a number here, maybe you can refer to it." Liang Xiao hooked his fingers.Ma Rong came over, spread out the ledger, and found Loulan's item. "General, 320, 450 knights of the Loulan Kingdom died in battle, and [-] and nine were captured."

When King Loulan heard this, he broke into a cold sweat.So, only a thousand or so knights who participated in the battle escaped?Loulan has been reduced from a big country to a medium-sized country.He trembled for a long time, his legs gave way, and he fell to his knees.Without strength, dignity is gone.Without the help of others, Liang Xiao can destroy Loulan by himself, so what capital does he have to negotiate.

"I give you two ways: one, follow Sirius; two, submit to my big man, send hostages as tribute, and provide two hundred elite knights for my dispatch, and are ready to be recruited at any time."

King Loulan fell to the ground. "I would like to submit to the big man, I would like to submit to the big man."

"Very good." Liang Xiao waved his hand, motioning for someone to take King Loulan to a seat beside him, and then sent for King Mi to see him.Seeing King Loulan sitting at the side, King Sumi felt a little more at ease.Ji Mi's strength is about the same as that of Loulan King, and if Loulan King can receive courtesy, he should not be inferior.

King Sumi came forward to meet him, but he also just bowed his hands and saluted, and refused to kneel down.Liang Xiao ignored him and remained silent.After a while, someone brought a Loulan knight to King Loulan.King Loulan untied his saber and ordered: "Go back to the country immediately and inform the king that I, Loulan, have surrendered to the big man. Let him immediately discuss with the queen, send protons, select tributes, and follow the envoys to pay homage to the emperor of the Han family. Two hundred elite riders are for General Liang to dispatch, there must be no mistakes."

The knight froze, staring at King Loulan.King Loulan was also very sad, but he had no choice but to stuff the knife into his hand. "Go, go, don't delay, I still want to go back to Loulan for the winter."

The knight suddenly realized, holding the knife, and galloped away.

King Sumi stared at King Loulan.Only now did he know why King Loulan was able to sit here, and he had already confessed to being cowardly.Sending hostages to pay tribute, claiming to be a vassal to the big man, and sending two hundred fine horsemen to listen to Liang Xiao's orders, what is the difference between this and being tied up?
Liang Xiao waved his hand, and Ma Rong read again: "General, 750 knights of the Sumi Kingdom died in battle, and 510 and six were captured."

When King Sumi heard this, all the strength in his body was drained instantly, his knees were also weak, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop, sweating profusely.He scolded Sirius and King Ruoqiang in his heart, especially King Ruoqiang.If it wasn't for his messing around, how could Ji Mi have such a big loss.It's all right now, my vitality is seriously injured, and if I don't surrender, I will only die.

Following the surrender of King Loulan and King Mi, all the kingdoms of Nanshan knelt down in front of Liang Xiao without exception.In this war, more than half of the [-] cavalry who accompanied Sirius lost more than half, especially Loulan, Jimi, Khotan and other big countries suffered heavy losses. They had no choice but to surrender to the big man.They hated Sirius to the bone, how could they be willing to be buried with Sirius.

Liang Xiao immediately ordered that in view of the death of the Ruoqiang king and almost all the soldiers were annihilated, he ordered the Eagle tribe to move to the Ruoqiang pasture to receive all the people and property of Ruoqiang, and supervise the neighboring countries.

Huang Ruo was overjoyed and went forward to thank him.
