Chastity Layman

"Tuoba Chici will avenge us, and the fire of vengeance will burn out Gansong."

The blood-stained leader of Tuoba tribe forward Qingqi's neighbor shouted defiantly. Qin Qiong leaned on a long sword and looked at this Qiang who would rather die than surrender.

"You are an unyielding fighter, I respect you, so I will not insult you to make you surrender, I will give you the ending a fighter deserves."

After finishing speaking, this Great Tang Situ, Hushi General, Qi Guogong, and Shangzhu State raised their swords and swung them down vigorously.

The sword light flashed, and the body of the tough and strong leader was separated.

No Qiang would surrender, they behaved like a tough guy.

"About 3,000 people are coming, and it's only twenty miles away." Qin Meng told Qin Qiong.

"These captives were too late to take away."

"Since you refuse to surrender, let's kill them all." Qin Qiong frowned, and the follow-up troops of the Qiang people came very quickly, almost following the forward.

Qin Qiong, who had just cleaned the battlefield, was also somewhat unexpected.

"Clean up, let's ambush again."

After hearing that the 3,000 people following were the supply team of the 1,000-strong vanguard, and there were many old and weak women, children, and livestock, Qin Qiong planned to come again.

The prisoners were not surrendered, but there were not many prisoners, and they were basically wounded. Qin Qiong ordered them to be executed directly.

The recording room joins the army and is responsible for recording the military exploits of the Han and Qiang soldiers.

Qin Qiong announced that in this battle, one thousand people should be ambushed by one thousand and five, and the battle should be based on more attacks and fewer attacks. Annihilation of the enemy army, more than 40% of the kills, is a top score.

All those who participated in the battle today will have the military merits gained in the battle.

This is calculated according to the calculation method of the military merits of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. According to the calculation method of the military merits of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, the formation is divided first, and those who attack more with less are in the battle.

Then according to the results of the battle, it is divided into upper, middle and lower.

At the same time as the battle and the victory, the fighters are also divided into first, second and third grades according to their personal military merits.

According to this system, in fact, after each battle, the soldiers' military merit system has a total of twenty-five ranks. According to the actual situation, the ranks are listed at the end.

The first rank in the battle, the greatest combat merit, the third rank in the next battle, the lowest military merit.

The Datang honorary officer system is a system of twelve ranks of military merit, which can be promoted cumulatively, and correspondingly transferred to the corresponding honorary officer, and enjoy the treatment depending on the official rank.

In a battle, if you win the first rank in the battle, you can get up to five ranks, and you can get four ranks if you win the first rank in the battle and in the middle battle.

The first prize won in the next battle, the same as the first prize won in the middle battle, can get three turns.

The second rank in the next battle is the second rank, and the third rank in the next battle is the first rank.

As soon as the military merit is turned, you can get the honorary knight captain, which is regarded as the seventh rank. The second turn is Yunqiwei, it is regarded as the seventh rank, and the third turn is Feiqiwei, it is regarded as the sixth rank.

Regardless of their origin, honorary officers are only judged by military merit. Honorary officers can get hereditary Yongyetian!

Arrays and acquisitions are based on collective merit, while waiting is based on individual performance.

Of course, in addition to the first, second and third ranks, there will be higher-level jumping skills, but these two skills are extremely rare. According to the military system of the Tang Dynasty, in a battle with an enemy force of less than 10,000, no more than ten people can jump. Pioneer first-class merit, no more than 20 people. The second merit should not exceed forty.

For every 10,000 people over 1,000 people, there is one for listening and dancing, and the other for pioneering.

Under this kind of strict military merit system, even if you were awarded in battle, if it wasn’t for the most outstanding performers, you wouldn’t even be able to get third-class merit, let alone first- and second-class and jumping merits. , so it is extremely difficult to earn a few military merits and get an honorary officer after a battle.

This time, one thousand and five ambushed one thousand, and the next battle was rewarded.

Qin Qiongte gave two jumping skills, five vanguard skills, ten second-rank skills, and twenty third-rank skills.

The most outstanding thirty-seven people will be given meritorious service, and the rest will be rewarded accordingly. Heads, captives, and captured cattle and horses will all be rewarded. .

Qin Qiong stood on the battlefield, under the handsome flag, Qin Qiong held a sword and shouted.

"Facing bandits in front of the battle, the arrows and stones have not been handed over, the vanguard rushes forward, the thieves break through the crowd, and the bandits break the formation, they are jumping!"

According to this standard, in today's battle, one jumping pioneer should not be given, but after all, it is Songzhou's first foreign battle, so Qin Qiong specially gave two jumping and five pioneers.

"According to the imperial military system, the rewards for jumping and danggong are limited to military officers and honors. Today, those who make jumping and pioneering merits, regardless of whether they are Han and Qiang or official and healthy, are awarded knight titles and added honorary officers. As already Those who are military officers and honored officers will be promoted to rank. They will also be awarded knight manors, and the number of Yongyetian will be awarded according to the rank of the honored officer."

"Those who have won the merit of jumping will be awarded the position of brigade commander. Those who have achieved the first level in the vanguard will be awarded the position of team leader. If they already have official positions, they will be given the position of half a level."

Qin Qiong saw that the Han and Qiang people below were cheering excitedly, and then said loudly, "Every life, ten bolts of human silk will be rewarded, and every level won, five bolts of silk will be rewarded."

"If you win a bandit commander of a thousand, you will be rewarded with three hundred pieces of silk; if you are a bandit commander of a hundred men, you will be rewarded with 150 pieces of silk; if you are a bandit leader with ten bandits, you will be rewarded with 30 pieces of silk. If you are a bandit commander who is a bandit commander, you will be rewarded with 30 pieces of silk. If you are a bandit commander with a war horse, you will be rewarded with ten pieces of silk."

This reward is much higher than the previous reward offered by Qin Qiong before the war.

Ji Shi joined the army and whispered to Qin Qiong worriedly, "Is the reward too high?"

According to the current price of silk, a piece of silk is 200 yuan. If you capture a prisoner, you can get ten pieces of silk;

Moreover, this is only a reward for beheading captives and capturing horses, and there is another reward for other captures.

"I just want to inspire everyone's courage to fight. Mere money and silk are not worth mentioning."

Qin Qiong waved his hand.

Things that can be solved with money are definitely not things, this is what Qin Lang often told him. It is worth the money to defend Songzhou. Moreover, if a young prisoner of war is sold as a slave, he can sell at least twenty strings, which is the price of a hundred bolts of silk. And a high-quality war horse can even sell for more than forty strings, which is the price of two hundred silk.

Therefore, this transaction is definitely not a loss.

The military personnel in the recording room and other military personnel quickly recorded military achievements, captures, captives, beheadings, etc. on the battlefield, and rewarded them after checking them correctly.

Cutting off Li Qiang's head is the most active, Qin Meng got Qin Qiong's order not to compete with them for the first rank of military merit.

Two jumping skills, one was given to Balibeli's son Balibershi, and the other was given to Qin Biao who led the team down the mountain first. The first meritorious service of the five pioneers was to give one of Li Qiang and four of the Qin family's own soldiers.

No one doubted it.

After one battle, there were thirty-seven honorary officers and knights. Qin Qionghao was not stingy, and publicly stated that if everyone can continue to fight with their hearts, as long as they have military exploits, Qin Qiong will not hesitate to reward them. If the performance is excellent and the achievements are extremely high, he will also ask the imperial court to confer titles for everyone, and give them the Songzhou fiefdom.

Li Qiang threw the registered heads one by one into the designated ravine, and then boasted to each other with a smile on their strengths, and at the same time calculated how much silk they could get in exchange for each other, and how much salt, tea, cloth, porcelain, and sugar could be exchanged for these silks. Wine and other goodies.

The dead horses were carried to the side of the road, and the Liqiangs began to divide and slaughter these horses on the spot, dividing the horse hide, horse meat, horse mane, etc., and they did this very smoothly.

The wounded horses were also carefully examined, and those who were not cured were pulled aside for treatment, and those that could not be cured were directly slaughtered.

Like wind and clouds.

The one thousand Tuoba vassal Qiang cavalry who were arrogant not long ago filled the ditch beside the Gansongling pass in a blink of an eye, and more than half of the thousand horses were slaughtered and divided soon.

The smell of blood filled the air.

"Ah Lang, the Tuoba tribe has 3,000 troops, less than ten miles away."

Qin Qiong hesitated when he saw the bloody smell rising to the sky.

With such a strong smell, I am afraid that the Qiang people will find something wrong as soon as they get close.

"Try it, the ones here are not elites. With their arrogance and arrogance, they might think that this is a cooking lunch for their forwards to kill cattle and sheep here."

Qin Qiong thought about it, but she was right.

"Light a fire, build a few more fires, let the smoke come out, and let Balibu speak louder." Qin Qiong asked Qin Meng to beat up the captured Tuoba vanguard's flag and stick it on the obvious hillside.

At the same time, let some Liqiang people deliberately change into Tuoba tribe's clothes, stand under the banner, and deliberately show their figures.

The smell of blood is too strong, and they deliberately concealed their whereabouts, but they can't hide the smell, so it's better to pretend that those Tuoba forwards are eating and resting here.

"Can it work?"

"It's fine, it's fine, it's fine if it's not, we have nothing to lose anyway." Qin Qiong said that if the three thousand people see through the ambush here, they will fight hard and meet directly in a narrow road. The brave wins.

He was confident that they, who had just won a big battle, would have no problem dealing with the three thousand old and weak members of the Tuoba tribe.

But if you can trick them into the ambush circle, you can catch them all in one go without paying any casualties.

Bai Libuli admired Qin Qiong's boldness and carefulness. If he had won such a beautiful battle, he would have patted his ass and left. But Qin Qiong was not in a hurry.

He swallowed a thousand cavalry forwards in one gulp, and now he has to swallow the three thousand people who followed him.

It's unimaginable.

Qin Qiong, the original hussar general, was able to navigate the treacherous mountains and rivers more freely than the Qiang people like them. This place should be where they have the right time and place, and even the harmony of people, but Qin Qiong is able to turn against the guests.

Tuoba Chici, the dog day, has always made you arrogant and domineering. This time, you have met a real opponent.

Thinking of the cold reception and even the insults he received when he met Tuoba Chici in the past, Bai Libuli even felt a little bit relieved.

The slaughter of horses and the distribution of meat continued, and even began to arrange for people to collect firewood to stew horse meat.

On the hillside, the banner of the forwards of the Tuoba tribe fluttered in the wind, and a team guarded the Qiang cavalry of the Li tribe under the banner.

In the distance, three thousand Tuoba Qiang people came slowly, driving cattle and sheep, and carrying fodder for tents.

They stopped before the distance, and seemed to smell the heavy smell of blood, and the crows circling in the sky made them hesitate.

But when they saw their own flag on the hillside, the puff of cooking smoke in the narrow pass, and even smelled the familiar smell of meat, they couldn't help but move on.

These 3,000 people were the family members of the Qianqi vanguard, their parents, wives and children, who drove the tribe's cattle and sheep, and came across the mountains first under the order of the chief Tuoba Chici.

The first tribe to invade Songzhou will also be the first to pick the best spoils in the future. Even Tuoba Chici has promised to the tribal chief who volunteered to play the vanguard that his tribe will take over Songzhou from Balibu This land is assigned to their tribe.

Originally, the forward and the family members behind were separated by dozens of miles, but now seeing the banners of their own men, they still smiled and stepped forward, preparing to have a reunion dinner together.

Thousands of people drove tens of thousands of cattle and sheep over the pass, and saw that their family members in the valley ahead were cooking meat and soup, so they cheered and stepped forward.

Rumble!

The rear pass was blocked by rough wood and boulders rolled down from the mountain.

Rumbling, the road ahead was also blocked by suddenly falling wood and rocks.

Just when those Qiang people didn't know why, the Qiang people who were sitting or standing waiting for them raised their iron knives, bows and arrows, stepped on their horses, and ran towards them.

Countless Han soldiers stood up on both sides of the hillside, and the rain of arrows fell from the sky...

Charge the Liqiang cavalry and enter.

Three thousand women and children, old and young, how could they fiercely take Li Qiang as their opponents, coupled with the narrow valley, the front and rear roads were blocked, and soon became a sheep into a tiger's mouth.

Some Tuoba Qiang elders and children resisted with spears and horizontal knives, but were soon overwhelmed by Qiang cavalry and Han arrows.

An hour later.

The bloody smell in the narrow valley became stronger, and hundreds of dead and injured were added, and the rest became prisoners. More than ten thousand cattle, sheep and livestock all fell into Qin Qiong's hands.

The Han and Qiang were excitedly sweeping the battlefield in the narrow valley.

Li Qiangqi carefully searched the battlefield with a sharp iron knife, and chopped off the heads of those unlucky guys who fell to the ground or had only one breath left, and tied them to their waists.

For those captives who are alive but have lost the will to resist, they laugh and tie them up with ropes, and then tie them around their waists, letting them follow behind numbly.

The capture of each Qiang cavalry was very rich.

Of course, the Han soldiers led by Qin Meng and Qin Biao also gained a lot, and the harvest of the Qiang cavalry also belonged to Qin Qiong.

The more than 10,000 cattle and sheep alone are extremely rich.

What's more, a lot of horses were also seized, as well as bows and arrows, knives and guns, as well as many tents, dried meat, felts, blankets and so on.

A Qiang tribe with more than 5,000 people belonged to a large branch in the Tuoba tribe, but now because they underestimated the enemy, they stepped on the same pass twice and the whole army was wiped out.

Nearly 3,000 young and old were captured, and more than 10,000 cattle and sheep were captured.

The reporter room and the soldiers who joined the army are already too busy.

Qin Meng suggested that these prisoners should help transport the spoils back to Songzhou immediately.

"How to deal with these heads?"

Qin Biao asked, pointing to the pile of severed heads.

"Build a Beijing temple, and set up a stone tablet to warn the Qiang people not to cross Gansongling, otherwise, the fate will be the same!" Qin Qiong waved his hand, and drove away the fly that smelled blood, and replied in a flat voice.

"Next year, the sweet pine grass on this mountain will grow even greener!"
