"Don't panic, don't panic, the enemy only has three thousand people, only three thousand people!" Zhao Wei was yelling at the top of his lungs. Even if he was given a megaphone, his voice would still be drowned out by the noise of tens of thousands of people.
Since ancient times, there was no lack of smart generals, but once the IQ of the general and the soldiers were too high, it would be a big joke.
Your general could clearly see that this was a bluff, but he couldn't see the soldiers.
However, the soldiers wouldn't be able to tell. They would think that they were the enemy and that they had fallen into the enemy's ambush.
From the beginning, they were not on the same frequency as your general.
If they were all elites, then it would be fine, but it was a pity that Zhao Wei's Central Army couldn't be full of elite soldiers.
Five thousand elite soldiers, this was Zhao Wei's limit. These five thousand elite soldiers might listen to Zhao Wei's orders, but what about the others?
The other soldiers weren't as obedient as Zhao Wei's elite soldiers.
Therefore, the first people that Zhao Wei's elite soldiers would deal with were their own people.
"Those who run away will be killed without mercy!" Zhao Wei was enraged. He raised his saber and chopped down on the head of one of the retreating Yunnan soldiers. Immediately, the head split open like a watermelon.
"Those who run away will be killed without mercy!" Zhao Wei's elite soldiers also roared. Five thousand elites, that was really enough to stabilize the situation.
Once the situation stabilized, the only thing left for the barbarian army would be destruction.
Burning the enemy's provisions and paying with his own life, this was not the characteristic of Jia Xu.
"Hu Zi, do you see that Zhao Wei, that old stick, take his head for me!" Jia Xu said to Hu Zi.
Jia Xu couldn't tell Hu Zi the purpose of his march, he could only tell Hu Zi the general idea, that was to charge towards Zhao Wei's location.
Hu Zi was the soul of the entire barbarian army, as long as Hu Zi charged, there would be countless barbarian soldiers around him.
Zhao Wei's location was where the five thousand elites were.
"Chota, squeeze, squeeze!" The barbarian army pounced on Zhao Wei like mad dogs.
Even Jia Xu followed suit.
Don't think that Jia Xu is stupid. On the contrary, this shows that he, Jia Xu, is smart. When Hu Zi charged forward, the three thousand barbarian soldiers also followed suit. If Jia Xu continued to stay where he was, he would be courting death.
Only by following the charge of the Central Army of the Barbarian Race could he ensure the safety of Jia Xu to the greatest extent.
"Cheta, squeeze, squeeze!" Even Jia Xu was able to speak a few sentences in the barbarian language.
Boom! The elite soldiers under Zhao Wei's command were all his old subordinates who had followed him in the past. They were able to be schemed against by Zhang Song in Hanzhong and still be able to bring Zhao Wei out. You can see how powerful these elite soldiers were.
For these old subordinates, Zhao Wei was willing to spend money on them. Their bodies were covered in heavy armor. Although the sword in their hands was not as sharp as the sword in Yangzhou, it was still a rare weapon.
Unlike the other generals who were in a panic, these elite soldiers who were Zhao Wei's old capital were determined.
"Anyone who dares to charge forward will be killed without mercy!" Zhao Wei chopped down another soldier who was fleeing.
Seeing Zhao Wei's actions, the Old Squad members, who had originally been merciful, also hardened their hearts and charged towards their former comrades-in-arms.
Even Jia Xu could not help but nod his head when he saw Zhao Wei's decisiveness. However, Zhao Wei could only be a general of an army and not the commander of three armies.
Since you are in the way of His Highness King of Han's great cause, then you will die for me.
Boom! The two torrents attacked each other.
You have me, you have you. The three thousand barbarian soldiers were also impatient. Although their numbers were less than the other side, with the bravery of Hu Zi and his younger brother, they were able to share the limelight.
"I have underestimated Zhao Wei!" Jia Xu wiped the blood on his face. He was now in a difficult situation. Jia Xu was originally not a scholar with explosive force.
If he was the same as Xu Shu, he would have changed from a general to a scholar halfway through his career.
Even though Xu Shu usually looked amiable, his true strength was comparable to a refinement god. Just from this, one could tell how powerful this person was.
He was simply a person who was proficient in both the pen and the sword.
Jia Xu underestimated Zhao Wei, or rather, underestimated the power of Zhao Wei's five thousand soldiers. When Jia Xu was fighting with Yang Chao's army, he had the thought that Yang Chao's army was only so-so. In fact, Yang Chao's army was quickly defeated by Jia Xu's barbarian army.
This made Jia Xu look down on Zhao Wei's army, thinking that Zhao Wei's army was only so-so.
Jia Xu shook his head. He also wanted to cry and laugh. If he had not been leading the barbarians for so long and finally had such a chance to leave, he would not have made such a big mistake.
Now, Jia Xu could only grit his teeth and persevere. If the barbarian army broke through Zhao Wei's elite army, then Jia Xu would win and Zhao Wei would lose.
If the barbarian army could not break through Zhao Wei's camp, then Jia Xu would be drowned by Zhao Wei's army. His barbarian army would not only be facing Zhao Wei's elite army, but also Zhao Wei's entire army of thirty thousand. Even if Jia Xu had the ability to reach the heavens, he would not be able to reverse the situation.
"If I die, then I die!" Jia Xu had never been so crazy before. For a long time, Jia Xu had let others charge in front. Everyone and everything were Jia Xu's chess pieces.
Jia Xu had never put himself in danger before.
The most recent time was under Shouchun City. At that time, he had no other choice.
He did not expect it to happen again today.
These scholars were usually well-educated and had a smile on their faces. Their every move was refined and courteous. However, once they put down their scholarly appearance and turned into brute force, you would find that sometimes, these scholars were the most terrifying beasts. They were originally a group of beasts that were bound by various rules and regulations.
Once these restraints were removed, they were even crazier than some generals.
For example, Jia Xu, Mr. Jia Wenhe, was not fighting with his hands. Even his teeth had become his weapons.
Even the barbarian soldiers on the side trembled with fear when they saw the beast tear open the throat of an enemy with a single bite.
"General, what should we do now?" Qian Xiao's troops had arrived behind Zhao Wei's army. He originally thought that he would be able to fight a smooth battle. However, he did not expect that the situation would turn into an anxious one.
Qian Xiao did not underestimate the ability of Zhao Wei's elite troops. Instead, he overestimated the barbarian army.
Qian Xiao's personal guards looked at him and asked. They were waiting for him to make a decision. Now, both sides were in a state of anxiety. However, no matter how they looked at it, they felt that Zhao Wei had a chance of winning. Many people were thinking whether they should change sides at the last minute. This way, they would help their old lord, Zhao Wei, to destroy the barbarian army. Would Zhao Wei forgive them?
Qian Xiao also had the same thought because not everyone was afraid of death. But soon, Qian Xiao regained his composure and gritted his teeth.
"Brothers! We have no way out now! Surrendering is a dead end. Do you see the fire behind us? That is our masterpiece. Even if we surrender, do you think Zhao Wei will forgive us? " Qian Xiao pointed at the raging fire behind him and said.
"Surrendering means death. If we don't surrender, although it will be a narrow escape, there is still a glimmer of hope!" Qian Xiao said to his troops.
Everyone lowered their heads and their eyes flickered. If there was no fire behind them, then they could not care less. They could even betray Zhao Wei and help him attack the barbarian army.
In this way, the law could not punish the masses. In the end, Zhao Wei would inevitably let them return to his army. He would even reward them to appease them.
However, it was different now. The camp behind them was their masterpiece. What were they putting here? In the beginning, they might not have known, but in the end, no one didn't know. Those were shining white rations.
The provisions were enough for a hundred thousand troops. Some of them were Zhao Wei's original savings from Yunnan and some were seized from Jianning.
When Zhang Yi left, he did not destroy these provisions. One of the reasons was that he was afraid that Zhao Wei would be angry and not let him go.
Therefore, these provisions could be considered all of Zhao Wei's possessions. But now, Qian Xiao and his subordinates had turned them into ashes in an instant.
If Zhao Wei had really forgiven them, then Zhao Wei would not have been so easily chased out of Hanzhong by Zhang Song and the half-retarded Liu Zhang.
Therefore, they had no way out now. They could only follow Qian Xiao to the end.
"General, are we just going to charge over like this?" Whether it is the barbarian army or Zhao Wei's army, they are not easy to deal with. Their vanguard, which consisted of a hundred men, was annihilated before they could even let out a scream.
"No!" Qian Xiao shook his head. He was not a fool. If they charged over now, it would be like pouring a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. He knew the strength of these elites under Zhao Wei.
If they charged over like this, they would not even be able to make much of a bubble. In the end, Qian Xiao's men were too few. Their equipment and weapons were not a match for the barbarians.
In terms of the quality of the soldiers, they could not compare.
The veterans under Qian Xiao's command were all 10-man commanders and centurions, while in Zhao Wei's army, they were just small soldiers.
Only those soldiers who had been through hundreds of battles would be able to become officers.
"Then what should we do?" Someone at the side was puzzled. Even if it was like pouring a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood, at least they had to go.
"All of you, shout with me!" Qian Xiao said to her subordinates.
"En?" Everyone was stunned.
"Zhao Wei's head is here. If you don't surrender quickly, you will not be killed!" Qian Xiao suddenly shouted.
One person's voice might not be heard, but when thousands of people shouted together, the voice became louder.
"Zhao Wei's head is here. If you don't surrender quickly, you will not be killed!" Qian Xiao's thousands of men shouted loudly.
Everyone on the battlefield heard it.
"What!" Zhao Wei was furious when he heard this voice. He was still fine, where did this head come from?
"It's a plan to create chaos!" Zhao Wei knew what the shouting meant. The reason why so many people were shouting at the same time was to disrupt the morale of his troops.
"A plan to create chaos?!" Jia Xu, who was in the battle formation, also heard the voice. He immediately understood what was going on and rolled his eyes. Qian Xiao was really a talent.
How could Jia Xu not think of this just now? "Zhao Wei's head is here. If you don't surrender quickly, you will not be killed!" Jia Xu also shouted.
"If you don't surrender, you will not be killed!" Jia Xu also had a plan.
Suddenly, the entire battlefield began to boil. No matter who it was, they all subconsciously looked for Zhao Wei.
But at this time, how could they find Zhao Wei in the vast sea of people?
Zhao Wei's war flag was also cut down by Hu Zi's men.
Suddenly, the entire battlefield was in chaos.
"General, General Zhao Wei is dead!" Jiang Hua and Huang Jian also received the news.
"What! The Lord is dead? "The two were also dumbfounded. They did not want to believe it, but there was no way to verify it.
Their men were already confused by the fire in the camp. Now that they heard that Zhao Wei was dead, they were even more confused.
"General, we?" Jiang Hua and Huang Jian's men also looked at each other, not knowing what to do. "Are we still going to save General Zhao Wei?"
"Save my ass, he's already dead!" Huang Jian was the first to make up his mind. He did not care and did not ask. Of the thirty-six stratagems, leaving was the best stratagem.
He also saw the power of those barbarians. To be able to fight against the Lord's elites, they must be strong soldiers.
Huang Jian's men were only about the same level as Yang Chao's men. How could they be a match for them?
Now, Zhao Wei's elites were still holding them back. If they did not leave now, they might not be able to.
"General, where can we go if we leave?" The deputy general asked doubtfully.
"To Yunnan!" Huang Jian said directly. "These barbarians are very strong in the field. I don't believe that they can still attack the city!" Attacking a city was not like fighting in the field. It required siege weapons. It was always easier to defend than to attack.
The barbarians only had two to three thousand soldiers. They could not reach the city walls at most.
Huang Jian still had more than ten thousand soldiers in his hands. Moreover, there was another important point. Now that Zhao Wei was dead, Yunnan would become a land without a master. How long could these barbarians stay in Yunnan? They would probably leave after plundering. At that time, the entire Yunnan would be Huang Jian's.
"General is wise!" The deputy general at the side hurriedly flattered him.
"Let's go, let's go. Don't let Jiang Hua have the upper hand!" Huang Jian still had to be wary of Jiang Hua because Jiang Hua's men were not much weaker than his.
Huang Jian's men immediately retreated. The barbarian army's encirclement was lifted.
