The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

On the vast grassland, a camp gradually came into view. Dozens of tents stood tall above the green grassland. In the middle of these tents, there was one tent that looked particularly luxurious, outlining a magnificent picture. A majestic general sat on a high seat in the tent. His greasy face, full beard, and the shining silver ornaments and scimitar on his waist showed an awe-inspiring momentum. He glanced at a Yiqu soldier who had just come in, and then said in a deep voice: "How are the fruits of our victory?"

The Yiqu soldier knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Leader, we captured 17 women and 35 young and strong men, and robbed more than 100 stones of grain!"

The general took a sip of strong liquor, and a ruthless light appeared in his eyes. With a conspiratorial smile, he said: "Sell these Wei people to Qin! Qin's slave market is vast and will bring considerable profits! And we are short of food recently, it's time to let the Wei people taste the autumn wind! After all, the women of our neighbors are the most valuable!"

Haha~~A sophisticated leader stood up and said proudly: "Chief, I am willing to lead a thousand elite cavalry to capture Zhangke!"

The clan leader thought for a moment and asked everyone: "Who is the current garrison commander of Zhangke County?"

A young leader stood up and answered: "Dear clan leader, according to our intelligence, the current garrison commander of Zhangke County is Gongsun Xi. This man is very powerful. Not long ago, he defeated three of our Yiqu warriors in succession and killed Chief Bu with just one shot."

The leader who was originally going to attack Wei laughed and said: "What are you afraid of! Clan leader, I will go, I will definitely bring this man's head back! I don't believe that the scimitar on my waist can't cut off his head!"

The clan leader nodded slightly and said: "Okay, let General Yu go, remember to avenge my clan!"

At this time, one person stood up to express his objection. He was wearing the clothes of the Central Plains and looked out of place with these people. He said cautiously: "Chief, the king has recently told us not to go to Wei to harass. If he finds out that we have disobeyed his orders, we will be in trouble!"

The chief laughed contemptuously: "King! He lives in Qingyang City and lives a rich life. What does he care about us! The people in those cities are cowardly and afraid of death! All they do is repair the city walls all day long! In the end, the city walls they repaired were all built in their own homes. What does it have to do with us, the branches! He also wanted to teach us farming skills, but they were forbidden by their big clans. They can eat and drink in their territory, but we are always displaced. Once we enter their territory, we will be expelled. Now there is no place to graze cattle and sheep! "

The man in the Central Plains costume continued to say: "Chief, ..."

"Enough! I have made up my mind to attack Zhangke County immediately!"

The man in the Central Plains costume persuaded again: "Chief, our tribe has been protected and supported by the king in recent years, why should we go against the king? We should focus on the innerThe tribe should focus on tribal construction, develop and expand the tribe, rather than frequently send troops to expand. " The chief looked at him deeply, with a flash of dissatisfaction and annoyance in his eyes. He sneered and replied: "Do you think the king really cares about us? They only give us some nominal protection because they are afraid of our potential. Our tribe is strong and rich, and we should use our strength to fight for a better life! ”

The man in Central Plains clothing seemed to want to continue persuading, but in the end he did not speak. The chief no longer looked at him, but refocused on the front, his expression became firm and fierce.

………

In a village, farmers were slowly pulling cattle to plow the fields, women were carefully weaving cloth at home, and children were bringing rice and water bottles to support the adults working in the fields. The old people gathered quietly under a big tree, chatting. How many such peaceful and peaceful days are there in the world?

However, the only difference in this village is that there is a tall three-story building outside, with a huge bell hanging on the roof. A man in black holding a long halberd looked around nervously. This tall building is found in almost every village in Shangjun. Once they find an enemy attack, they will immediately ring the bell to let the villagers hide in the shelter or quickly organize manpower. Resist the enemy.

The man looked around, and his sight finally stopped at the direction where the dust was coming from. He held the halberd tightly, frowned, and looked determined. Although the village was peaceful and serene, the dust floating on the bell reminded people of the crisis they might face at any time.

Suddenly, the dust in the distance came in waves. The man observed carefully, his face changed drastically in an instant, grabbed the copper hammer, and knocked the bell repeatedly.

Dongdong~~The sound of the bell echoed throughout the village. The people were frightened by the sound of the bell and fled into the mountains. They were worried about their own property and food, and no one dared to take care of them. The village chief led everyone to retreat into the mountains in a calm manner to avoid the enemy's attack. At the same time, a young man rode a fast horse to the county town to report the situation to the county government.

You Yu led more than a thousand cavalrymen to quickly enter the village, and some villagers who failed to escape were ruthlessly chopped down by them. You Yu looked around and found that the village was empty. He laughed and said, "Take all the food! Burn all the houses down!"

"Robbery!"

Zhangke County Government

A man rode to the gate of the county government, jumped down, picked up a drumstick and hit the county government's drum. When the county magistrate heard that someone was attacked, he immediately summoned the man. After listening to his story, the county magistrate immediately sent Gongsun Xi to lead the soldiers to eliminate the invaders.

When Gongsun Xi heard that the infantry came to support, he said angrily and happily: "Very good! Since you have come to my door, I will not be polite. Before, only a few infantry could not deal with you, but now..."

Gongsun Xi led the soldiers to set off, with firmness and decisiveness in his eyes. He knew that this invasion of Rongdi was related to the safety of Zhangke County, and there must be no carelessness. Passing through the tortuous mountain roads, the soldiers showed their magical powers, and MoRub their fists and prepare for the challenge. They have already put life and death aside, and victory is their only choice.

Gongsun Xi felt very comfortable riding on this horse equipped with stirrups and saddles. Unlike before, he only put a piece of cloth on it. It was almost very tiring to sit on the horse and run for a long time, and it would also cause damage to the inner thigh.

Gongsun Xi took the lead and led 500 cavalry to the village. On the way to the village, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out from the nearby forest. Gongsun Xi defended and blocked the sharp arrow with a long spear. Dozens of Yiqu cavalry rushed out of the forest. These Yiqu cavalry were responsible for reconnaissance missions. One of the Yiqu cavalry turned around and ran to the village to report to the leader.

A Yiqu cavalry rushed towards Gongsun Xi with a scimitar. Gongsun Xi shouted loudly, which frightened the people and horses. He stabbed the cavalry with a spear and was killed.

Gongsun Xi led the way and rushed directly towards the dozens of Yiqu cavalrymen. Seeing their leader being so brave, the Wei cavalrymen behind him also drew their swords and fought with the Yiqu cavalrymen.

Gongsun Xi rushed forward and back, and killed more than a dozen Yiqu cavalrymen in a row. Gongsun Xi commanded the cavalrymen to surround the Yiqu Rong enemies. Then Gongsun Xi took the hard bow hanging on the horse, drew the bow and shot the leader of the Yiqu scout cavalrymen with one arrow.

In less than a moment, the dozens of Yiqu scout cavalrymen were completely wiped out by the Wei army.

Gongsun Xi pointed his spear and shouted: "Brothers, follow me to kill the remaining Yiqu Rongdi!"

The morale of the generals and soldiers was extremely high, and they shouted: "Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!"

Gongsun Xi and others rode their horses to the vicinity of the village, and saw that the Yiqu Rongdi had already prepared and set up their battle formations and were waiting for Gongsun Xi and others.

Although the Yiqu Rongdi had more people than the Wei army, Gongsun Xi was not afraid at all. He rushed forward on horseback after observing the surroundings. The 500 Wei cavalrymen behind him also followed the main general to rush towards the enemy. The leader of the Yiqu Rongdi also drew his scimitar and shouted: "Warriors! Kill!"

When the two sides were only 100 steps away, the Wei cavalry suddenly took out their strong bows and shot a rain of arrows. Before the Yiqu cavalry could react, more than a hundred cavalrymen fell down.

The Yiqu leader was shocked. How could these Wei people also know how to ride and shoot? He originally thought that he could just charge and kill the Wei cavalry a few times and wipe out the small number of Wei cavalry. As a result, these Wei cavalry actually knew how to ride and shoot. You know, if you want to practice riding and shooting well, you have to start training at least from the age of ten. But as a farming nation, how could the Wei people ride horses from a young age?

The cavalry of both sides began to fight. The Yiqu leader rushed towards Gongsun Xi with a scimitar in his hand. He wanted revenge and made the Wei army pay the price. It was difficult to train more than a hundred warriors who were good at riding and shooting. The entire tribe had more than a thousand cavalrymen. The tribe could not bear the loss of more than a hundred people at once.

The end, the scimitar just touched the spear, and the Yiqu leader's palm was shaken by the powerful force. The experienced Yiqu leader was still in high spirits when he first set out, and he had just seenThe commander of the Wei army was still a young man and didn't take him seriously at all. As a result, he felt very stressed after just one round of fighting. This young man is not ordinary!

The leader of Yiqu didn't dare to fight with Gongsun Xi anymore, and turned his horse's head to escape. Gongsun Xi couldn't let him do what he wanted, so he threw his spear and pierced the body of the leader of Yiqu.

The Yiqu cavalry saw that their leader was killed in the battle and had no intention of fighting. They turned their horses and fled westward. Gongsun Xi drew his spear and ordered: "The whole army chased them!"

Half an hour later, the Yiqu Rongdi were driven out of Wei territory. Gongsun Xi saw the Yiqu Rongdi desperately fleeing and laughed. In this battle, the Wei army suffered dozens of casualties, while the Yiqu casualties were as high as more than 300, and more than 100 people were captured.

…………

In the camp, the chief saw the Yiqu soldiers kneeling and trembling, and shouted angrily: "You said that General Yu died in the battle, and we lost more than 300 people. More than 1,000 people were chased and beaten by 500 people. What a bunch of useless guys! Behead the captain!"

In the tent, the Yiqu leaders sitting on both sides saw that the chief was so angry and it was difficult to persuade him. After all, the loss of more than 300 people was a heavy loss for their tribe. It seemed that they might have a hard time getting through this winter. If they wanted to get through this winter, they could only borrow food from the King of Yiqu, but the food of the King of Yiqu was not easy to borrow.

The chief wearing the Central Plains costume stood up and said: "Chief, now we have lost more than 300 people. I am afraid that this winter will be difficult to get through. I can only borrow food from the king!"

Everyone saw that the chief had not spoken yet, and it was difficult to persuade him. At this time, an envoy came in. The envoy was holding the Yiqu King's talisman and followed by dozens of Yiqu soldiers.

As soon as the messenger came in, he angrily scolded the chieftain above, saying: "Chief Badong, you actually disobeyed the king's order. Didn't the king say that no one is allowed to attack Shangjun of Wei without his consent! Please go to Qingyang for us!"

The chieftain just smiled. A group of soldiers behind the messenger came over and tied up Chief Badong. The leaders around him didn't dare to stop them when they saw this scene. You know, this is the king's army. If they stop it, the whole tribe will probably be buried with it.

And what awaits this chieftain is the inhumane punishment in the royal city.
