This set of things, together with the armor on his body, have been passed down in his family for several generations, and are the treasures that his family relies on for survival. Whenever a war comes, he will pick up this set of things and follow the general to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
In his more than 20 years, he had countless fights with others. He even went to the battlefield to fight with the Qiang people. He had been there at least three times. He had rich combat experience.
Although the speed at which the opponent's spear struck him surprised him, his body reacted instinctively after a long struggle. He swung his left arm violently to the right. This was his usual action, using the shield on his left arm.
Block the opponent's attacking weapon. If the opponent is slashing, he will lift it diagonally upward. If the opponent is stabbing, he will block it to the right. In the past, after he made this move, he would step towards
forward, and then stabbed the opponent with a short spear in his right hand.
But today, the opponent's spear was too long.
"What a strength!" In the blink of an eye, the round shield on his left arm had hit the opponent's spear tip from the side, deflecting the opponent's spear before the opponent stabbed him. But just
Before he could instinctively make the next move, a sharp pain came from his left rib. Immediately afterwards, he felt a huge cold spearhead inserted into his ribs like lightning, and then exited like lightning.
He subconsciously looked at the injured part, and saw that a big hole had already appeared there, and his blood and some broken internal organs continued to flow out of the horrible blood hole. He opened his mouth wide, trying to say something angrily.
, but the spear that was deflected earlier retracted first, and then advanced. This time, he did not resist, and he watched helplessly as the opponent's spear pierced the leather armor on his abdomen and pierced himself.
His belly, with a puff of flesh and blood, retreated out of his belly. His seemingly endless strength seemed to be drained out of him in an instant, and his consciousness began to blur. His legs softened, and he fell to the ground.
He fell to the ground. His eyes were open aimlessly, and his mouth was trying hard to say something, but with his efforts, blood just kept spilling out of his mouth, and his body and limbs twitched from time to time. Finally,
He tilted his head and reluctantly said goodbye to the world he had lived in for more than twenty years.
Huo Yan did not look at the hand-to-hand battle between the two sides behind him. He stared at Gongsun Shu. Gongsun Shu under the banner did not move, but a young man on the other side saw him coming and immediately got on his horse, holding a long spear in his hand.
, rushed towards him.
Huo Yan didn't know that this young man was Zhou Xing. He controlled the horse with one hand and held his spear tightly with the other, charging towards the opponent.
There is no fear at all. Years of experience have made him instinctively excited at this time. Only when he is excited can he react faster and move faster.
He is a veteran who has defeated his opponents countless times on the battlefield.
Hedging immediately, it's just a flash of lightning. The competition is courage, reaction speed and timing of action.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
Ten meters.
His eyes narrowed, and he concentrated on watching the other party's movements.
Just as the opponent was about to raise his hand, he almost simultaneously raised his right hand holding the spear.
"Kill!" He shouted violently, leaned forward, and stabbed forward with all his strength. At this moment, he noticed that the other party's expression was still that casual.
"Pa!" His spear had just stabbed halfway when an unpredictable force came from the barrel of his spear. This force was so powerful that before he could react, the spear in his hand had already gone away, and his right hand
He also felt numbness in his right arm.
He passed by the opponent in astonishment, and subconsciously continued to draw his long sword. At this moment, the opponent's gun barrel had already hit his back hard.
At this moment, the man rolled off the horse and fell heavily to the ground. A mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth at the same time.
Although he suffered such a blow and fell to pieces, he still tried hard to get up and continue fighting. Just as he struggled to get up, there was a sound of horse hooves, and the fatal spear tip came to him in an instant.
in front of.
"Are you going to die like this?" This sentence suddenly appeared in Huo Yan's mind.
"... In this battle, a total of 236 people were beheaded and 357 people were captured. After this battle, the bandits who went south to Guanghan to invade Deyang had to huddle in Guanghan City..."
cd, in the governor's house of Yizhou, Jordan was reading the report from Deyang with excitement on his face.
"Your Majesty, great victory, great victory!"
"Hmph, we only beheaded more than two hundred people." Lu Qiang, who was not tall, said sourly, "The number of refugees is tens of thousands. This small gain does not damage its roots."
"What Lu Zheng said is wrong." Jordan immediately retorted: "The letter from Marquis Gaoting also said that although the refugees are brave, they are not engaged in production, just like duckweeds without roots. As long as they are free from plunder, they can fight.
No, the refugees will naturally perish after eating the remaining food."
In his letter, Zhou Xing praised Luo Shang for building a long siege along the river, which surprised Jordan and made Luo Shang very happy.
Luo Shang originally only defended passively to prevent the refugees from crossing the river. But in Zhou Xing's letter, he described his move as a good strategy to encircle and kill the refugees. Now that Zhou Xing has occupied Deyang, as long as he holds the front line of Deyang,
Let each village build fortifications to protect themselves, and the effect will be effective within half a year.
"It is said that this son relied on his own merits in killing Shen Xiu to become domineering and unparalleled. But he didn't expect to turn out to be such a wonderful person." Luo Shang thought as he read the contents of the letter.
The repeated defeats against the refugees put Luo Shang under great pressure. Although news from the court said that Qi Wang Huangfu Juan still trusted and supported him very much, he also knew that he could never be defeated again.
At this moment, he couldn't help but be glad that when he learned that Zhou Xing was training troops secretly, he didn't send someone to stop it immediately. With such a moderate victory, and the strategy described in Zhou Xing's letter, the situation turned out to be
It's a great place.
He guards the CD line, Zhou Xing guards the Deyang line, and Yabo guards the Jiange Jiameng line. As long as these three lines are strong, the refugees will only be within the two counties of Zitong and Xindu. As Zhou Xing said, as long as the villages in Jiangdong
Build forts to protect yourself so that the refugees have nothing to plunder. One day, the refugees' food will be exhausted. At that time, this group of thieves will probably rise up and cause chaos within themselves.
Grain tart
As soon as he thought about this, Luo Shang decided that he would acquiesce in the plan that he had built the long siege along the river to implement this plan.
"The Marquis of Bodao Ting attacked Deyang this time to carry out my secret order." Since Zhou Xingyan implicitly and implicitly wanted to give him this credit, Luo Shang accepted it without ceremony. "Originally, I was worried about this.
You can't shoulder such a heavy responsibility, but you don't want to win such a great victory. Since this person has made such a great contribution, it is the court's custom to reward him for his merits. Here, I solemnly announce that I have appointed Zhou Xing, Marquis of Bo Daoting, to Jiangyang.
A county captain can have less than a thousand subordinates..."
Two days later, the capital of Jin Dynasty was in Shangluo, in the palace of Prince Qi.
The King of Qi, Huangfu Yan, who was in charge of the government alone, sat on the main seat, flanked by Sikong Donghai, Wang Huangfu Yue, Taiwei Wang Yan, Shangshu Ling Ge Tai, Shizhong Dong Ai and others.
"Your Majesty, what do you think of Luo Shang's strategy?" Although Huangfu Yan is a high-ranking commander, he still maintains a courteous attitude towards Wang Yan, a senior lieutenant whose reputation is no longer what it used to be.
Ever since the Yizhou refugee rebellion, Qi King Huangfu Yan, who had just been in the auxiliary position for a short time, has been under tremendous pressure. He suffered successive defeats, the fall of Zitong, the fall of Xindu, and the fall of Guanghan. Looking at the "Yugong Territory Map"
》The red areas were marked on the map of Yizhou and Liangzhou, and Huangfu was extremely anxious.
Luo Shang was appointed by himself and was responsible for the important task of reforming Lingtian. After the repeated defeats, there were endless calls from inside and outside the court to replace the governor of Yizhou, but Qi King Huangfu Yan temporarily suppressed these voices.
Compared with these voices, he cared more about the opinions of General Huangfu Ying who was in charge of Yecheng and Situ Huangfu Yong who was in charge of Chang'an.
Huangfu Ying has not spoken out on this matter yet, but Huangfu Yong has proposed to appoint his general Ya Bo to replace Liangzhou governor hd Shang as the new Liangzhou governor.
From the bottom of his heart he was unwilling to agree to Huangfu Yong's proposal, and he even wanted to replace Huangfu Yong's military position in the three states of Yong, Qin, and Liang.
He could not forget that the first person Huangfu Yong supported was Zhao Wang Huangfulun, not Qi Wang Huangfu Ji.
After receiving the good news from Luo Shang in 800 miles, Qi King Huangfu Yan finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Although the results of Deyang's victory were not so dazzling, the strategy Luo Shang described to defeat the thieves was completely feasible.
of.
As long as Luo Shang can solve the problem of refugees, it means that Qi Wang Huangfujiang knows people well and appoints them well, rather than being nepotistic.
To pacify the refugees, promote mine fields, and realize the grand blueprint that his father never realized, this is what Huangfu Jon has always pursued.
"My father has always aimed to rival Yin Gong. He failed to achieve this goal. I am here to help him achieve it!"
"Luo Shang's strategy is a prudent strategy." Wang Yan had already read the memorial sent by Luo Shang before Huangfu asked him. At this time, he slowly said: "In the past, Meng offered his camp to the military prison and Zheng Ren was afraid.
, Yanruo City Dongyang and Erlaizifu. It goes without saying that Jiange Jiameng has natural dangers. It goes without saying that Luoshang built a long siege along the Pi River on the west line. The key is the south line and the east line. How to ensure that refugees do not go south on a large scale in the future or
March eastward. In addition to Deyang, we should also strengthen defenses in Qixian, Zizhong, and Nanchong."
"What Taiwei said makes sense." Wang Huangfu of Sikong Donghai nodded and said: "However, Qixian County and Deyang belong to Guanghan County of Liangzhou, Zizhong belongs to Qianwei County of Yizhou, and Nanchong belongs to Basi County of Liangzhou. These places belong to the two counties.
It’s really difficult for the state to have unified command.”
"It's not like we're going out for an encirclement and suppression campaign." Shangshu Ling Ge Tai said coldly: "The prefects and magistrates of each county only need to guard their own territory. Anyone who abandons the city and flees will be executed according to the law."
As soon as Ge Tai spoke up, everyone present immediately fell silent. Wang Yan originally wanted to say that the county's military equipment had been neglected for a long time and was no longer able to withstand a battle, but when the words came to his lips and looking at Ge Tai's arrogant demeanor, he finally did not
Say it out loud.
"Hd Shang has been defeated repeatedly. It is not appropriate to serve as the governor of Liangzhou again. Xu Xiong of Runan is both civil and military, so he should succeed Hd Shang..." Seeing that no one was speaking anymore, Ge Tai started to talk about the next topic.
In Chang'an, the newly appointed Situ, the Prince of Hejian, Huangfu Yong, sat on the brocade couch in the Jing Pavilion with a sad look on his face.
When he sent Yabo to lead 10,000 elite troops to conquer the refugees in Liangzhou and Yizhou earlier, he promised Yabo that he would serve as the governor of Liangzhou.
Huangfu Yong has always been a person who keeps his promises and always does what he says.
Huangfu Yong's father is called Huangfu Gui, and his grandfather is Huangfu Fu. He was the third brother of Huangfu Yi, the Emperor Xuan of Jin Dynasty, and another first-grade black-robed grandmaster among the eight Huangfu dragons. Huangfu Fu had several sons in total, and Huangfu Gui was his son.
The sixth child of the family.
As Huangfu Yong, he was not considered a close relative in the clan. According to the stone letter system of Emperor Wu Huangfu Yan of Jin Dynasty, non-clan relatives who were in charge of Chang'an were not allowed to do so. The first person to be in charge of Chang'an was Fufeng Prince Huangfu Jun, who was Huangfu's son.
Yi's seventh son was a dignified second-grade purple-robed monk. After King Fufeng, King Zhao Huangfulun, King Qin Huangfujian, and King Liang Huangfutong sat in succession, all of whom were close relatives of the clan. After King Liang Huangfutong was defeated by Zhao
After Wang Huangfulun asked Shangluo to assist the government together, King Zhao Huangfulun specially recommended Huangfu Yong, the king of Hejian, to Empress Jia. He said that after the vassals from all over the Huangfu family came to Beijing, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty Huangfuyan saw Huangfu Yong and talked with him.
Later, he praised Huangfu Yong as a model for the clan.
Huangfu Yong always cared about money and loved scholars, and he never acted like a vassal king in front of the monks. Therefore, since he took charge of Chang'an, he had won the hearts of the scholars in Yongzhou. Because it was Zhao Wang Huangfulun who recommended him in the first place, and in his heart
Among them, he indeed hated Empress Jia for killing the crown prince Huangfu Yu. When Qi King Huangfu Juan called on everyone to conquer Zhao Wang Huangfulun, instead of responding to Huangfu Juan, he kidnapped Huangfu Juan's envoy and sent him to
Shangluo. When King Zhao Huangfulun asked him for help, he did not hesitate and sent his confidant General Zhang Fang to lead 70,000 elite Western troops to assist Huangfulun. However, when Zhang Fang arrived at Tongguan, he received news that
The central army was defeated one after another, so they hurriedly sent people to Tongguan overnight and changed the banner of aiding Huangfulun to attacking Huangfulun.
Although to this day, Qi Wang Huangfujiang has never brought this matter up, Huangfu Yong knows in his heart that one day the other party will reveal this matter and settle accounts with him. If I don't talk about it now, it's just that Huangfujiang feels that the time is not right yet.
Just arrived.
Early this morning, he received news that King Huangfu of Qi had appointed Xu Xiong as the new governor of Liangzhou, which made him angry and scared.
What makes him angry is that he originally considered the overall situation and took the initiative to send Yabo to lead 10,000 elite troops to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion. When Yabo set out, he personally promised Yabo that he would recruit the governor of Liangzhou for him. But Qi Wang Huangfu
Jiong obviously rejected his suggestion, which made him angry.
What I'm afraid of is that, let alone Liangzhou, even the governor of Qinzhou has been replaced by someone appointed by Huangfu Juan. If one day Huangfu Juan has a showdown with him, he will be surrounded on all sides.
Just when he was shocked, angry and at a loss, a person walked in from outside the Jing Pavilion. He saw that this person was five feet long, had big ears, and a black beard under his chin that hung down to his chest. He was really extraordinary in appearance.
