Chapter 2083 Reward

Hearing the word "kill" coming out of Song Yan's mouth, Di Qiu couldn't help feeling a chill. He thought to himself, this civil servant is ruthless, but he is even more ruthless than our generals.

"Puff puff puff puff!"

Blood spattered and heads fell. Soon, all the remaining wounded Red Wolf soldiers had their heads chopped off.

"Sir, what should we do next?"

Di Qiu carefully asked Song Yan for his opinion.

"Kill him directly!"

Song Yan said.

With a wave of his hand, thousands of cavalry headed straight for Xifeng County with a sure-win momentum.

If before this battle, these soldiers were worried and uneasy, but at this moment, they were full of confidence because Song Yan was so powerful.

While walking forward, Song Yan took the time to check his luck.

To his satisfaction, after killing these red wolf troops, his luck power actually increased by over ten thousand.

For a moment, he couldn't help but look thoughtful.

When the Wei Kingdom is in chaos, the surrounding barbarians will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation, and maybe they will still have a chance to found a country. Therefore, the two thousand Red Wolf Army have an average luck of more than five points.

You know, the group of ordinary cavalry following him only had two or three points of luck.

The red wolf tribe is in high demand!

"If I kill the opportunity for the Red Wolf Clan to prosper, I will definitely gain more luck!"

Song Yan thought secretly.

"Report!"

In the Red Wolf Clan military camp outside Xifeng County, a messenger came loudly.

"The general is in trouble. The two thousand cavalry led by General Summer were defeated, and only a few dozen of them escaped!"

"What?"

"How can it be?"

"Nonsense. The opponent only has a thousand troops. How could Summer lead two thousand troops and lose? Moreover, it only took so little time!"

After hearing the report from the messenger, there was an uproar in the camp, and all the generals could not believe the information.

Only Kui Lang's face was as gloomy as water, and he shouted coldly: "Come here, call all those deserters to my general!"

Soon, dozens of deserters were all brought into the camp, with fear and lingering fear on their faces, and some were even trembling.

"Tell me, how did you lose?"

Kui Langhe asked.

"General, general, there is a powerful man in the Liangzhou army. With one strike of his sword, he not only killed General Summer, but also killed hundreds of people and injured hundreds more!"

Then, the deserters recounted the entire process, and for a moment, the camp suddenly became silent.

"Is he a master warrior?"

After a while, someone whispered.

"Report! The Liangzhou Army has reached five miles away!" Another messenger ran in and reported loudly.

"Generals, listen to the order and follow me to meet the enemy!"

Kui Lang shouted loudly, and the whole camp started to move.

The Red Wolf Tribe is worthy of being a horse race. When the Liangzhou Army arrived a mile away, they organized six thousand soldiers and horses.

"kill!"

Song Yan, who was riding on the horse, raised his sword again and led a thousand cavalrymen to charge towards the six thousand red wolf soldiers.

"Asshole!"

When Kui Lang saw it, he was furious. When he saw that the soldiers and horses actually dared to attack the six thousand army.

"Kill these guard dogs!"

Kui Lang waved his sword and shouted, and immediately, the stationary Red Wolf Cavalry also began to charge.

Four hundred meters.

Three hundred meters.

Two hundred meters.

The soldiers and horses of both sides are shortening the distance between each other all the time.

At this moment, Song Yan, who was riding on the horse, suddenly rose into the air, and then turned into an afterimage and shot out.

"kill him!"

Kui Lang's eyes turned red, and he also rushed up from his horse to face Song Yan in mid-air. At the same time, the other two generals under him also broke away from their horses and rushed into the sky to cooperate with the puppets to surround Song Yan.

"die!"

A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of Song Yan's mouth, and as soon as he swung his sword, three heads were picked up by him.

His majestic Taoist golden elixir can kill three innates, but it's not easy to do so.

Seeing the three heads flying up, the red wolf cavalry's sprint speed couldn't help but slow down.

Seeing this, Song Yan stood in mid-air out of thin air, his robe waving in the wind. Then he raised the Qingshuang Sword in his hand, and then slashed it down hard.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three golden sword energy that was more than twenty feet long crashed into the red wolf cavalry and exploded, killing countless red wolf soldiers. In an instant, half of the six thousand red wolf soldiers died.

"Come again!"

Song Yan slashed out two more swords and killed more than two thousand people. The remaining hundreds of people became frightened and turned around to run away.

"General Di, I'll leave the rest to you, no problem!"

Song Yan fell onto his horse and said.

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely not disappoint you in the end!"

Under the command of Di Qiu, a thousand Liangzhou cavalry began to pursue the Red Wolf soldiers.

The battle lasted for a full hour before it ended.

Di Qiu, covered in blood, returned, dismounted from his horse, and knelt on one knee: "Sir, all the Red Wolf soldiers who escaped have been killed!"

"What are the casualties?"

"Eight died, twenty were seriously injured, and more than eighty brothers were slightly injured!" Di Qiu replied.

Hearing this, Song Yan couldn't help but frown slightly. He didn't expect that the fleeing Red Wolf soldiers would also cause so much harm to the Liangzhou soldiers.

But when I think about it, I feel relieved. The red wolf soldiers are already strong. Knowing that there is no hope of escape will definitely arouse their desperate desire.

Next, clean the battlefield.

But what is surprising is that Xifeng County is still closed and has no intention of coming out.

It seems that he was scared out of his wits by the red wolf soldiers.

"Sir, do we want to enter the city?"

After cleaning the battlefield, Di Qiu came to ask for instructions.

Song Yan smiled.

"Sir, no matter how much we say, we have solved the danger of Xifeng City's destruction. So far, they haven't sent anyone out. This is too chilling!" Di Qiu said without hesitation.

Song Yan smiled: "There are only two reasons why they didn't come out. One is that they are worried that this is just a trick, and the other is that they are deliberately pretending to be stupid. We saved their West Wind City. If they show up, they will definitely be killed." Use money and food to reward the army!"

Di Qiu nodded with deep approval: "Your Excellency is wise!"

"By the way, have you finished counting the supplies left by the Red Wolf Soldiers?" Song Yan asked again.

"Still counting!"

Di Qiu said.

After another hour, the inventory of supplies was completed and organized into volumes and delivered to Song Yan.

In this battle, not only eight thousand Red Wolf soldiers were eliminated, but more than eight thousand pieces of leather armor were obtained, of which more than five thousand were intact, and the rest were more or less damaged.

Weapons, bows and arrows also gained a lot.

Finally, there were the war horses. There were only three thousand, and the remaining five thousand were all dead. This made Di Qiu feel regretful. If Lord Song had shown mercy to the horses when he took action, he would not have captured only three thousand war horses.

There is not much food, only more than 600 shi.

On the contrary, the total gold, silver and copper coins amount to more than 300,000 taels.

There are also five thousand dead horses that can be used for meat. In short, the harvest this time is huge.

"Go back!" Song Yan waved his hand.

So, a thousand Liangzhou troops left Xifeng County with a large amount of supplies. Looking at the leaving army, the magistrate of Xifeng County secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Song Yan guessed right. He didn't send anyone out because he really didn't want to take out the supplies. Money and grain were used to reward the army, because he couldn't afford it at all. In his opinion, the soldiers and horses were already red-blooded. If they couldn't come up with grain and silver, once they attacked the residents in the city, the impact would be unimaginable.

evening.

When Song Yan returned to Liangzhou City with his troops, Su Bingwen came to greet him personally.

When Su Bingwen looked at the bloody heads placed on the carriage, his face turned pale at first, and then he excitedly went up to them. After inspection, he held back his vomiting and asked: "Ziyu, you went out to kill this time." How many red wolf soldiers!"

"Eight thousand red wolf soldiers were wiped out!"

Song Yan said lightly.

"Silk!"

Su Bingwen and the officials in the government office collectively took a breath of air. One thousand versus eight thousand, and all eight thousand were wiped out. Moreover, they were red wolf soldiers. Everyone felt like they were dreaming.

But the eight thousand bloody heads told them that this was all true.

In the past, when Liangzhou soldiers and Red Wolf soldiers fought against each other, a few or dozens of heads would be considered a great achievement.

Now that he has captured eight thousand heads, that is definitely a great achievement.

On the night they returned to the government office, Song Yan and Su Bingwen jointly wrote the note, and then ordered a hundred cavalry and two hundred civilians to escort 8,000 heads to the Governor's Mansion. As for their note, they had already sent a horse to deliver the note to the Governor's Mansion.

One day later, Governor Qi Ning received the documents from the two chief officials of Liangzhou Prefecture. He laughed angrily, threw the documents directly on the table, and said with a sneer: "These prefects and magistrates of Liangzhou really regard me as their own. Idiot, a thousand Liangzhou soldiers can destroy eight thousand Red Wolf soldiers?"

But after three days.

After the heads of eight thousand Red Wolf soldiers were escorted to the provincial capital, Governor Qining looked like he had seen a ghost.

Immediately, people were ordered to check the authenticity, but after identification, there was no doubt that these 8,000 heads were from the Red Wolf tribe.

In particular, several of the specially preserved heads were recognizable as Kui Lang, the general of the Red Wolf Clan, and his three generals.

For a while.

Qining couldn't help but trembled with excitement.

"Okay! Okay! Liangzhou Mansion is great!"

Immediately, he called the cavalry who had escorted the head to ask about the situation of the battle at that time.

However, these cavalrymen were all explained by Song Yan and deliberately downplayed his contribution. Even so, Qi Ning was dumbfounded. He did not expect that such a huge contribution was made by a civilian official.

"What a beautiful man!"

In the end, all Qining's emotions turned into these words.

Since this military merit is real, then we should consider how to claim credit for Song Yan and Su Bingwen.

The imperial court was troubled by the corruption in the northwest, but a document sent by the governor of Yunhuang Prefecture gave the imperial court a shot in the arm.

True or not, this is something worth writing home about.

Especially Emperor Wei, who got drunk when he returned to the palace that night.

But many officials expressed doubts about this good news.

But seven days later, after the batch of heads was delivered to the capital, all the doubts in the minds of the officials were gone.

Then, the awards from Song Yan and Su Bingwen also arrived in Liangzhou.

The prefect Su Bingwen was transferred back to the capital to serve as the censor Zhongcheng, which was also an official position of the fifth rank. However, the weight of this official position was not comparable to that of the prefect of Liangzhou.

Song Yan was named the Jiedushi of Liangzhou, in charge of the military and political power of Liangzhou, and his official position was from the fourth rank.

As for Di Qiu, he was named Liangzhou Zhonglang General, a fifth-rank official position.

Other soldiers also offered their services, and overall, they all improved by one level.

In addition, there were also rewards of gold and silver. What made Song Yan dumbfounded the most was that Emperor Wei actually gave him a set of glasses. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
