Gao Ding really didn't expect that the gap in combat effectiveness between his own tribe and the Han army would be so big.
Why didn't we feel this way when we started a rebellion? !
In Yuexi land, Han and Yi people live together, with many Yi people and few Han people.
Therefore, Gaoding has never understood why so few Han people dared to dominate the Yi people.
The Yi people worked hard for a year, but half of the grain was taken away by the Han people and traded in the market. The Han people could often take away the Yi people's efforts for an autumn with a few pieces of cloth.
this is not fair.
Gaoding felt that the Yi people should not be inferior to the Han people. On the contrary, the Han people relied on the Yi people to support themselves. Without the Yi people, the Han people were nothing at all.
The senses accumulated over the years made Gao Ding feel that the Han people are really nothing special.
What's more, the soldiers from Yuexun County that Gaoding can see on weekdays have always been small in number because there are too few Han people and the Yi people dare not use them. They are also located in a remote location and the protection of all aspects of ordnance is not in place. Some ordnance is even the standard ordnance from 20 years ago.
The Huanshou knife has almost turned into a rusty knife.
Therefore, Gao Ding felt that the number of Han people was not as good as his own. Although the weapons had iron weapons, the lethality of the iron weapons seemed to be average. So why should he let the Han people oppress him and just do the opposite?
But now, Gao Ding feels that he may have been deceived.
Most of the Han troops on the opposite side were wearing armor, and the weapons in their hands were capable of killing people. On the other hand, the weapons in their hands were collected from the arsenal of Yuexun County, and there was no armor at all. Some of the ordnance broke upon contact with the Han people's ordnance, and some tribesmen even fought with bamboo spears.
Moreover, when the Han army on the opposite side fought, they did not swarm forward in one fell swoop, but in groups of a dozen or so, fighting around their own clansmen. When my own clansmen swarmed forward, they found that they were surrounded by enemies, and their own people were divided into small pieces. Yes, there is no way to connect at all.
The most important thing is that there are many Han people on the opposite side this time.
After Gao Ding fought for a while, he knew that he was definitely no match for the opponent. Therefore, before the enemy was completely attacked, Gao Ding decided to withdraw his troops.
One person cannot defeat them, so it is better to retreat to the depths of Yuexun County and take advantage of the high mountain terrain to block the enemy. At the same time, quickly send someone to contact Meng Huo and ask him to come and help.
However, if the Han people who have been trained in the military formation withdraw their troops, they will collapse if they are not careful. The Yi troops under Gao Ding have no idea what "orders and prohibitions" mean. As soon as Gao Ding said to withdraw their troops, they turned around and ran away. It became a rout.
There were countless casualties.
At this time, in the mountains of Jianning County, Li Hui and Wang Ping were leading their soldiers over mountains and ridges, marching from small roads, intending to go around Meng Huo's back and cut off Meng Huo's return.
Li Hui is really anxious now.
There are five major surnames in Jianning County. Among them, the Meng family and the Yong family have rebelled. The Jiao family and the Cuan family do not know their attitude for the time being. Only the Li family is firmly on the side of the Liu Bei Group this time.
Once the Nanzhong rebellion is put down, the Meng family and the Yong family will basically be eliminated on the issue of copper mine distribution rights, while the Jiao family and the Cuan family should not have much say due to their inaction.
Then the local aristocratic family's say in the distribution of copper mines must be in the hands of the Li family.
If Li Hui can make a great contribution this time and help Liu Bei pacify Nanzhong, then he will gain a lot of fame and fortune.
The most important thing is that Li Hui thinks this can really be done.
Originally, Li Hui was worried that Yizhou soldiers were not good at crossing mountains and would not be able to cut off Meng Huo's return route on time, but now Zhang Xi actually deployed more than a thousand people to himself, and these more than a thousand people were simply A good player in the mountains.
For this reason, Li Hui even divided his team into two parts.
Some of them marched normally under the leadership of the captain, while Li Hui and Wang Ping led more than a thousand people to quickly advance over the mountains and ridges, trying to blitz Meng Huo's back and capture Wei County, the home of Meng Huo and Yong Kai.
From Li Hui's point of view, now that Meng Huo and Yong Kai have gone north to rescue Gaoding, Wei County is quite empty, and he himself is the head of the Li family in Nanzhong. As long as he appears at the gate of Wei County, he might be able to rescue Gaoding. It depends on the battle.
But Li Hui did not expect that because he was anxious, he advanced with light troops all the way. When he arrived at Guchang, he happened to encounter some of Yong Kai's rebels who had retreated from the front line.
At this time, Meng Huo also discovered something strange behind him, and began to withdraw his troops. He no longer went north to aid Gaoding, but planned to return to Wei County and defend Jianning County.
In this case, Li Hui accidentally fell into the siege from both sides.
After all, Li Hui should not have brought only a thousand soldiers. Whenever he brought his five thousand troops, Meng Huo would have to go around him when he saw him.
But now, Li Hui was trapped in a tight siege. Although the enemy was defeated, their number was several times that of Li Hui. For a while, Li Hui was really in trouble.
After trying several times to break through without success, Li Hui got into trouble.
After all, Li Hui was the head of a wealthy family in Jianning, with the surname Li in Nanzhong. His influence in the area was not inferior to that of Meng Huo.
Therefore, he pretended to tell the rebel leader that the food he had brought was almost enough and he could not go back to Chengdu. Otherwise, I would stay and rebel with you.
In the end, the rebel leader really believed it.
After all, Li Hui has great influence in Jianning. Now that Yong Kai is dead again, these rebels don't know where to go. Since Li Hui is willing to stand up and rebel against the court, then they will respect Li Hui as their leader, and they will It is a way out.
Therefore, the rebels relaxed their encirclement of Li Hui a little.
As a result, Li Hui seized this opportunity and took advantage of the lax defense of the rebels to attack the rebels and directly killed the rebels who collapsed and fled.
Li Hui did not let go, and pursued him all the way to Panjiang before retreating and holding on to Guchang, waiting for the arrival of subsequent reinforcements.
Meng Fu learned that Li Hui defeated the enemy in Guchang, and for a while he couldn't figure out how many troops Li Hui had. He didn't dare to advance rashly. He just gathered the defeated troops of Gaoding and Yongkai along the way and retreated to Wei County, intending to close Jianning. The county's passage is defended tightly according to the city.
Li Hui did not dare to attack Meng Huo easily. After waiting for reinforcements, he sent a reconnaissance team to Wei County and quickly contacted Zhang Xi and Ma Zhong.
He had gone too far alone. Once Meng Huo realized his true nature, he might really be doomed as a solitary soldier.
The news from Ma Zhong came quickly.
Zhu Bao was not something that was forbidden to be beaten. Ma Zhong led 5,000 people and swept all the way. After defeating Zhu Bao, he occupied Qielan, the county government of Zangda County, and began to pacify the country and calm the people.
After receiving Li Hui's letter, Ma Zhong also sent troops to threaten Wei County from the east to prevent Meng Huo from dividing his troops.
As for the battle at Beishui on Zhangxi's side, they won a complete victory.
When the Yi people fought, the whole family basically fought. Therefore, after this victory, Zhang Xi captured many Yi people's children, including Gaoding's wife and children.
There are even unexpected gains.
Zhang Xi didn't know how Guan Yinping did it. No, "Guan Suo" did it. Anyway, "Guan Suo" personally escorted a prisoner who was 1.9 meters tall to see Zhang Xi.
It is said that he is Gaoding's trusted general named E Huan.
This person Zhang Xi has an impression.
In the entire "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there are only two people who use Fang Tian to draw halberds, one is Lu Bu and the other is E Huan.
Well, the force value of both of them is actually quite high.
Needless to say, Lu Bu, since Lu Bu's death, everyone seems to be "selling out Seoul" in the eyes of the second master.
As for this E Huan, he first fought with Wei Yan to no avail. Later, under the trap, Wei Yan, Wang Ping, and Zhang Yi joined forces and captured E Huan.
But now, not only was this guy captured alive by Guan Yinping, it was said that he was fighting in the middle of a chaotic battle on the battlefield. His weapon was knocked off by Guan Yinping with one move, and then he was photographed by Guan Yinping and captured alive on horseback. This guy was shattered to pieces on the ground.
Well, maybe it's the world's fault that Zhang Xi doesn't care about this. Anyway, E Huan was originally a fictional character in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Although he actually appeared now, his force value has declined, which is normal.
Probably nothing to care about.
On the other hand, Guan Yinping, the little sister, insisted on watching Ma Su write down her achievements, and then waited uneasy until the ink dried, and then left, somewhat confused.
Ma Su is actually quite depressed. The little girl has made it clear that she can't trust me. Can I still deduct your credit? !
Ma Su is not stupid. It's not like he had no dealings with Guan Yu when he was in Jingzhou in his early years. How could he not know that Guan Yu didn't even have a "Three Sons Guansuo"? !
But the coach pretended to be deaf and mute. Naturally, he, the manager in charge of logistics, couldn't say anything.
In addition, this is not the first time Guan Yinping has captured an enemy general alive to record his merits.
Each time, he would tie up five tall and three thick generals to record his merits. This time, he was even more fierce and directly captured a burly general who was more than eight feet in length. Ma Su reckoned that with his small arms and legs, he was really no match for them.
So, just pretend you don’t know anything.
On the contrary, Ma Su went to remind Zhang Xi that he could no longer advance slowly this time and must pursue the victory without giving Gaoding any chance to breathe.
This time, Zhang Xi agreed with Ma Di's judgment and led his army to pursue Gao Ding all the way.
As for Gaoding, he led his remaining soldiers all the way and retreated in defeat, retreated and was defeated. It was not until he retreated to Qiongdu that he barely gained a foothold. After gathering the remaining soldiers, he planned to hold on to fight to the death.
But at this time, Gao Ding had only less than two thousand troops left.
Although the war has reached this point, Zhang Xi thought that Gaoding would not surrender easily. But at least he fulfilled his battlefield obligations and sent someone to Qiongdu to persuade Gaoding to surrender. If Gaoding surrendered, wouldn't he be able to surrender? One less fight?
As expected, Gao Ding said that he would rather die in battle than surrender.
