To the west of Wuwei, after crossing Wenshui, you will enter a narrow, rugged mountain road with complex terrain.
Xianbei's leader was omnipotent and had obviously done enough homework, even if the Han army sent cavalry.
While occupying favorable terrain, Xianbei was still able to catch the Han army by surprise with an ambush.
The cavalry did not actually have an advantage when fighting on this mountain road. Fortunately, Qie Wanneng led the cavalry to block the entrance to the valley.
Moreover, Wan Neng had already learned the news that both Qiang kings Cheliji and Erhe Shaoge were killed by the Han army.
It can be seen that this Han army, as Cao Cao said, is not easy to deal with!
And Wan Mang never underestimated the enemy. He traveled day and night to get here, hoping to use the terrain to ambush.
“Let’s name this place Burial Han Valley!”
"The Han army is destined to be buried here."
"My sons of Xianbei, the land west of Hexi will be the hotbed of our clan from now on!"
Xianbei moved westward, but the Qiang people did not agree. However, the Qiang people were too powerful, so they had to swallow their anger and cede the land west of Hexi.
Unexpectedly, before the situation was stable for two days, the Han army had already arrived.
And Wan Mang will never give up Hexi easily. It is connected to the Western Regions, and merchants who want to enter the Central Plains have to pass through their territory.
Since the Xianbei and Qiang people caused trouble in Liangzhou, merchants from the Western Regions have really been in bad luck!
In the past, whether Dong Zhuo, Han Sui, or Cao Cao were in charge of Liangzhou, they only had to pay one tariff.
Fortunately now, these Xianbei people don't collect taxes at all, they just rob and plunder, and they engage in zero-yuan purchases.
The Western Regions have always done business with the Central Plains. Even if they no longer bow to the declining Han Dynasty, they still rely on the products of the Central Plains.
In order to deal with these Xianbei people, the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are also actively preparing for war.
However, in the eyes of the Xianbei people, the countries in the Western Regions are nothing at all.
Only the powerful Han army was a thorn in their side.
…
The next day.
According to the plan, the Han army entered the Han Dynasty Burial Valley that had just been named universally.
Liu Mang did not deliberately suppress the marching speed. Only the most natural behavior could expose the enemy's flaws.
Guan Ping was worried. This valley was simply the best place for an ambush.
The unparalleled soldiers are all just selected, the prince is really brave!
A horn sounded, and Xianbei troops soon appeared on both sides of the valley!
"This place is called Burial Han Valley, and it is the cemetery arranged by my Lord for you!"
Wan Neng looked down at the Han troops. Just when he was about to order an attack, he saw Liu Mang responding calmly.
"Array up!"
Uh-huh!
Only then did Wan Neng see clearly that several members of the Han army were carrying some strange objects.
The shaft is three feet long, nine feet wide, and seven feet five inches high. The box is made of thin boards.
When they come out, they are connected to the left and right, the front and back are connected, and the hooks and loops hold each other.
What on earth is this?
With his omnipotent IQ, he obviously couldn't understand the Han army's operations, but he still directly ordered the arrows to be fired!
On both sides of the valley, arrows are like locusts!
"Your Majesty, what on earth are these?"
Guan Ping was pulled off his horse by Liu Mang, and then the two hid in the sidecar.
"This thing is a boxcar. If the land is wide, it will be an antler car camp. If the road is narrow, a wooden house will be placed on the car. It can be used to fight and move forward."
Liu Mang pointed at the tops of the two men's heads. There were several wooden boards hanging above their heads.
Even if the Xianbei people's bows, arrows and stones were smashed down, they would not be able to harm the Han army at all.
Facing the increasingly narrow terrain, Liu Mang ordered the boxcar to pass by on a bicycle.
"Brothers, please swallow your anger first and wait until you get out of the valley before you fight these bastards to the death!"
call!
The Han army was unstoppable and no one retreated. They had long been proficient in operating sidecars.
Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, and Tai Shiheng were obviously faster than Guan Ping in accepting new things.
You can't blame Guan Ping. He is responsible for the daily training and scheduling of the three thousand soldiers and horses.
"Brother Changqing is really awesome!"
Guan Xing felt inspired and said, "Our army of three thousand has no precedent, how can we pass through this valley so safely!"
Zhang Bao was Liu Mang's NC fan and laughed loudly: "Brother, didn't you say that? After we leave the valley, it's time for us to fight back!"
Taishi Heng followed Liu Mang silently. He could not be a sharp blade in the hands of the prince, so he would make an armor to protect his back.
Qie Wanmian was obviously at a loss when facing the Han army's side-vans.
This thing is just like a tortoise shell. Arrows and stones have no effect at all when hit on it. At most, it makes a sound when hit on a wooden board!
The Xianbei people were also confused on the spot. Why did the promised ambush turn out to be useless?
The Han army used this despicable method to block arrows and stones. Have you ever thought about the Xianbei people who worked hard to ambush all night?
As a result, 3,000 Han troops used sidecars to leave the so-called Han Burial Valley without losing a single soldier!
"Here... ride your horse quickly and prepare to leave the valley to meet the enemy!"
"These kinds of objects are not worth mentioning in front of me and the other cavalry!"
Jie Wan Neng shouted loudly to remind the cavalry to prepare for formation to face the enemy.
Fortunately, Qie Wan Neng came with 5,000 people this time, giving him an absolute numerical advantage.
Even if they failed to ambush the Han army in the valley and the two sides fought head-on, the Xianbei people would not be at a disadvantage.
"A side-by-side truck? It's clearly an armored personnel carrier!"
"Take it to Chang'an in the future and make sure Cao Cao feels better!"
Liu Mang was very pleased with himself. He had to say that the ink artist was very skillful. He only provided an idea and the other party was able to produce it perfectly.
Ma Jun's current status in the Han army can be said to have skyrocketed.
Even Liu Bei occasionally visited him to show his concern.
After the Han army came out of the valley, they finally came to an open area.
Both the Xianbei cavalry and the Han army believed that the war was beneficial to them.
The cavalry lined up and the horses neighed, ready to charge into the formation at any time and tear apart the Han army's formation.
"kill!"
Wan Mang wanted to seize the opportunity and decisively ordered a charge and kill after the Han army came out of the valley.
The Xianbei soldiers would not give the Han army any chance. They attacked the Han army by lightning and caught them off guard.
"Throw yourself into a trap!"
With a look of contempt on his face, Liu Mang waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately understood.
"Your Majesty! The enemy army is powerful. Why not retreat now and wait for an opportunity to fight again?"
"Brother Tanzhi, this army is called Wuqian, and I have no intention of retreating!"
However, they saw that the sidecars were lined up side by side by soldiers, with antlers placed on all sides, forming a camp and advancing forward.
The Xianbei cavalry were confused again. They used the cavalry to fight against the antlers. How many dishes could they drink like this?
The soldiers in the front row moved forward without hesitation, dragging the sidecars forward, while the soldiers in the back row bent their bows and nocked arrows, and launched a counterattack with strong bows and crossbows!
"Here comes the arrow!"
Arrows flew, and countless Xianbei cavalrymen who were charging were shot off their horses, and soon there were wailing sounds!
The Xianbei people who were lucky enough to escape being shot by arrows had to face the impact of armored vehicles!
The antlers pierced into the flesh and blood of the horses, making the Xianbei horses fearful and did not dare to step forward at all.
Qi Wan Nang kept rubbing his eyes. He obviously had no way to deal with the current Han army!
