Xu Wei and Wang Laohan decided to stand still. Wang Ge and other juniors naturally did not dare to resist, so the whole Mayi did not care about the war in Youzhou and continued to live according to their own rhythm. The only change was that Guo County set up a place to recruit refugees.
A large number of Youzhou refugees fleeing the war flocked to the Tengjia Army's territory.
People who fled from Youzhou will be resettled here first, and then go to various sites of Fendao Tengjia Army. When the merchants in Mayi knew that they could make 100 yuan without bringing anyone to Mayi, the merchants who came to Mayi
The team would pick up some refugees who had fled. Even after hearing about Xu Wei's actions in Taiyuan County, he actually brought tens of thousands of people from Bingzhou to Mayi and made millions of dollars!
In fact, Xu Wei didn't know that Dong Zhuo was also frightened by the war in Youzhou. He was really afraid that Xu Wei would take the opportunity to cause trouble and lead his troops south to attack Taiyuan County, so when he saw Xu Wei standing still, Dong Zhuo's anxious heart finally relaxed.
, Then he saw that Xu Wei wanted to collect people, so he immediately found a large number of refugee slaves from Bingzhou and sent them all to Mayi to try to feed Xu Wei's belly!
In September, the autumn harvest in Mayi begins, and young people from all over Bingzhou begin to rush to Mayi, because Mayi needs the most labor at this time. Helping to harvest wheat in Mayi can earn 30 yuan a day, so you can earn half
month, enough for the people in other parts of Bingzhou to have half a year’s income, and the people of Bingzhou became the first batch of migrant workers in the world!
This year's autumn wheat harvest in Mayi was once again bumper. The entire Tengjia Army harvested more than 20 million shi of wheat. This year's bumper grain harvest completely solved the Tengjia Army's food dilemma. Xu Wei set a three-year grain reserve
The goal is finally accomplished!
At the same time, Zhang Chun, who rebelled in Youzhou, cheated! He first led his army to ambush Yang Zhong, the governor of Liaodong, and others, completely defeated the Liaodong army, and killed Yang Zhong, the governor of Liaodong.
Liu Zheng, the governor of Youbeiping, was guarding Lucheng, but Zhang Chun didn't know where to get a crowbar. He stormed Lucheng with an army of 50,000 men and broke through the city in three days, killing Liu Zheng, the governor of Beiping.
Huang Yu, the prefect of Yuyang County, was defeated by Zhang Chun in Hunu City and fled back to Yuyang City. Zhang Chun immediately led an army of 50,000 to besiege the city, and then resorted to crowbar attacks. Within five days, Yuyang fell. Huang Yuzhan, the prefect of Yuyang County,
die!
Qi Chou, the captain of the Karasuma people, led the reinforcements to support Yuyang, but he did not expect that Yuyang would fall so quickly. His reinforcements directly entered the encirclement of the Karasuma people. Under the impact of 50,000 Karasuma people's cavalry,
All 10,000 Youzhou troops were wiped out, and Qi Chou died in battle.
Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were unstoppable in their journey. They killed 2,000 shi of high-ranking officials like chopping melons and vegetables. The 2,000 shi of high-ranking officials killed in the 4-5 years of the Yellow Turban Rebellion were not as many as Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju killed in one month.
, it can be said that the main force of the entire Youzhou has been wiped out by Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, and the entire Youzhou has almost no power to resist the offensive of Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju!
In September of the fifth year of Zhongping (AD 187).
The imperial court, which was overwhelmed by Zhang Chun's series of offensives, finally came to its senses!
The imperial court ordered Gongsun Zan, the governor of Liaodong, to assemble the entire army of Dai County, Shanggu County, Zhuo County, and Guangyang County as well as the remnant soldiers who had escaped from the battlefield. He also gathered 30,000 soldiers from Youzhou County and ordered Gongsun Zan to defend Zhuo County. He could not
Let Zhang Chun's rebels enter Jizhou and wait for the source of Liu Bei's army.
The entire imperial court was also worried that Zhang Chun and his companions would trigger a new round of rebellion in Jizhou if they entered Jizhou. After all, Jizhou would be fully captured by the Yellow Turban Army whenever there was any disturbance in these years, and the entire imperial court was afraid.
At this time, Gongsun Zan was in high spirits, with white horses and silver spears, and a heroic appearance. Three thousand elite white horses followed him, and behind them were 30,000 Youzhou troops. Although the court asked Gongsun Zan to wait for Liu Bei's source, this was not what Gongsun Zan wanted.
.
Even if he really waited for Liu Bei to come to his aid and defeated Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion, Liu Bei would be the first to win. This is not what Gongsun Zan wanted to see.
Gongsun Zan's life has not been too satisfactory in recent years. He and Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, have different ideas. Since he became the governor of western Liaoning, he has always treated the barbarians with extermination, but Liu Yu is a rare dove in the Han Dynasty and advocates being gentle.
Policies to treat local nomads.
How can you get promoted and make a fortune if your ideas are not in line with those of your immediate boss, so he has been stuck in the same place all these years. Originally, Gongsun Zan had already become a 2,000-stone man in his 20s. Even the descendants of noble families could not reach his level.
, Yuan Shu, a disciple of a top-ranking family, is now only a 2,000-dan Changshui captain. In other words, Gongsun Zan’s promotion speed can now be compared to that of the top-ranking disciples of the Han Dynasty. He is proud enough.
However, Liu Bei, his younger brother who has been following him all the time, has been promoted and made a fortune under Liu Yu's care over the years. He has been promoted to the position of Beizhong Lang, and he has also built a palace and commanded an army of 100,000. Gongsun Zan only has 3,000 people behind him.
Bai Mayi felt that his heart was unbalanced from an instant. The little brother who used to follow him actually climbed in front of him. Although he was happy that Liu Bei was reused by the imperial court, he also felt a trace of jealousy in his heart.
This time Zhang Chun promoted their rebellion, which made Gongsun Zan overjoyed. Especially Zhang Chun was so unstoppable that he defeated all the people in Youzhou. Now he is the only one who can fight against generals in Youzhou. If he can
If Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were beheaded, they would be granted the title of marquis and prime minister.
Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were extremely happy to find out that the last Youzhou army was heading towards them. As long as they annihilated this Youzhou army, the entire Youzhou army would be in their possession.
So the two gathered their 50,000 troops to prepare for a decisive battle with Gongsun Zan.
As for where Zhang Chun Zhang Ju's remaining 50,000 Karasuma cavalry went, the two of them were helpless. Although the Karasuma people were good at fighting, they were a mob. After annihilating the main force of the Youzhou Army in Guangyang County,
These Wuwan people scattered and began to plunder all directions. The people in central Youzhou were wailing, but Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju could not stop this situation because they still had to use the Wuwan people's cavalry, so even if Yuyang County was theirs
They could only pretend not to see Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju’s hometown. Every day, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju’s family cursed them both for a bad death.
Gongsun Zan and Zhang Chun fought at Shimen Mountain. Shimen Mountain is a relatively steep place with steep Shanbi on both sides. There is an open path in the middle, which is also called Shimenkou. This kind of terrain can be said to be "the brave one wins when meeting on a narrow road".
The combat effectiveness of the Youzhou army led by Gongsun Zan is undoubtedly stronger than that of Zhang Chun and his rebel army, and Gongsun Zan is a fierce general who can defeat ten thousand enemies.
, unstoppable, and killed more than ten generals of Zhang Chun. Even though Zhang Chun and his two men had more troops than Gongsun Zan, they were still defeated by Gongsun Zan. Zhang Chun and his 50,000 army were completely defeated, and 10,000 soldiers were killed.
Ten thousand were captured, and only less than 30,000 were captured. Zhang Chun and his two men could only retreat towards Youbeiping County with the remaining troops!
After Gongsun Zan won the first battle, he took his three thousand white horse followers and frequently surrounded and suppressed the Wuwan people in the Yuyang area. Although these Wuwan people numbered 50,000, they had already dispersed. In addition, during this period,
After plundering, he had lost his fighting spirit. After Gongsun Zan's 30,000-strong army encircled and suppressed him, he killed 4,000 Karasuma soldiers in less than half a month. At the same time, Gongsun Zan massacred more than a dozen Karasuma tribesmen.
There were no chickens or dogs left, and rivers of blood flowed. Just as the Wuwan people were plundering the Han Dynasty, Gongsun Zan retaliated with tooth for tooth, killing these rebellious Wuwan people and leaving no chickens or dogs behind, making them regret entering the hinterland of the Han Dynasty!
Gongsun Zan's ruthlessness directly frightened the Wuwan cavalry who were plundering in all directions. They had heard of Gongsun Zan. He had always treated them barbarians ruthlessly and left no room for mercy, but they did not expect him to be so ruthless. If Gongsun Zan was
There was still a way to survive if they were caught, so these Karasuma people also fled directly from the hinterland of the Han people and fled towards the grassland.
At this time, Gongsun Zan was very high-spirited. Zhang Chun's army was defeated by him, and the Wuwan people who rebelled in Youzhou were also driven out of Youzhou. All he had to do was kill Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju! This rebellion relied on me, Gongsun Zan, alone.
The power is calm.
After expelling the Karasuma people, he excitedly continued to lead the army in pursuit of Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju.
After Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun fled to Liaodong, they rectified the morale of the army and wanted to continue fighting Gongsun Zan. However, they saw Gongsun Zan leading Baima Yicong to kill the Wuwan people in a panic. A total of 50,000 Wuwan people were defeated by Gongsun Zan.
, they were immediately heartbroken. The Wuwan cavalry was the source of their rebellion, but now they were defeated by Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan was so terrifying!
Now that their dream of being emperor is shattered, they are also worried that Gongsun Zan will continue to hunt them. At this time, Gongsun Zan was massacring the Wuwan people in the four counties of Liaodong. King Qiu Liju of Bailang and King Su Puyan of Qiao fled with them.
The Karasuma cavalry and Zhang Chun met to discuss how to deal with Gongsun Zan.
Under the pressure of survival, several people finally had to unite together. After some discussion, they decided to gather troops to ambush Gongsun Zan before Gongsun Zan knew that the Wuwan cavalry had arrived, and annihilated Gongsun Zan's army in western Liaoning.
county.
Zhang Chun deliberately exposed his 30,000-strong army. Gongsun Zan was overjoyed when he discovered Zhang Chun's army and attacked Zhang Chun's army fiercely. Zhang Chun could not hold on and fled again. Gongsun Zan didn't think much about it, and then went all the way into the encirclement of Zhang Chun and the Wuwan people.
, a total of 80,000 troops encircled and suppressed Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan led the remaining troops to escape into Guanzi City in western Liaoning for defense.
Gongsun Zan regretted it when he was in a desperate situation. In order to grab credit, he put himself and his subordinates into a desperate situation. Now he could only wait for reinforcements. When Liu Bei's reinforcements arrived, Gongsun Zan even felt ashamed. Unexpectedly, he finally
He can only rely on his little brother to save him.
But at this time Liu Bei was his only reinforcement, so while Gongsun Zan encouraged the soldiers to hold on to the city, he also sent people to break out of the encirclement to ask for reinforcements from Liu Bei's army!
Xu Weiren, who was originally in Mayi, watched the battle between the Han army and Zhang Chun and others with laughter, but he did not expect that a decree of Emperor Ling would cause the entire Bingzhou to become turbulent.
It turned out that after Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju were overwhelming and killed several governors of Youzhou, Emperor Ling was worried about the war in Youzhou and ordered the Southern Huns to recruit 30,000 cavalry to follow Youzhou Shepherd Liu Yu to attack Zhang Chun. The Southern Huns
Shan Yuqiang Qu originally wanted to please the Han and rely on the strength of the Han to resist the Thunder Duke of Mayi, so after receiving the imperial edict, he immediately sent his son Zuoxian Wang Yufuluo to prepare 30,000 cavalry to follow Liu Yu Youzhou.
But as soon as the Huns began to gather, rumors began to fly in the various tribes of the Huns. Rumors said that Zhang Chun Zhang Ju was so powerful that all the tribesmen who went to the Youzhou battlefield to suppress the rebellion would die in battle. He also said that their Chanyu was for
To keep your own glory and wealth, you have betrayed them. No one who went to Youzhou will come back alive. What does the matter in Youzhou have to do with us Huns? Why do we go to Youzhou to fight, etc.
In short, these rumors said that all the Huns who went to the battlefield would die in battle, which made the Huns panic and uneasy. The leaders of each tribe often gathered for meetings, and the atmosphere was very tense.
This actually has something to do with the Ling Emperor. Over the years, the Ling Emperor has repeatedly recruited the Huns to fight. The Huns died in battles one after another without even being rewarded. Even if they are mercenaries, you have to give them benefits. No one is willing to do such a non-profit thing.
.
Coupled with the increase in the number of corrupt officials in these courts, they not only oppressed the Han people at the bottom, but naturally they would not let go of the Huns in the Han Dynasty. Because these corrupt officials and the Huns were very hostile to the Han Dynasty, Emperor Ling now conscripted 3
Thousands of Huns thought that the 30,000 Huns who went on the expedition were about to escape death. This aroused dissatisfaction among the entire Huns, so these rumors began to spread, and the tribal leaders of the Huns also tried to add fuel to the flames.
These rumors soon turned out to be true, and the entire Xiongnu tribe began to refuse to obey Qiang Qu's orders to assemble cavalry to fight in Youzhou!
The Great Chan Yu Qiangqu was very angry when he heard about the actions of slaughtering the leaders of various tribes. His people were so confused that they thought the people on the grassland were Huns. They still thought that the Huns were so powerful that they could offend a big man.
Escape to the grassland.
But they didn't look at their surroundings. The Thunder Lord had already semi-surrounded them. They still had a way to retreat to the grassland. The Huns now didn't rely on the power of the Han Dynasty to deal with the Thunder Lord of Mayi. How could they wait for the Thunder Lord of Mayi to divide them?
cattle and sheep, divided their pastures, divided their wives, and hung them!
Don't these leaders know that with the current strength of the Xiongnu, it is difficult to raise even 100,000 young men, and they are no match for the Thunder Lord of Mayi. Now that they have rebelled against the Han, what will they use to deal with the Thunder Lord? Don't they know that the subordinates at the bottom
They already want to hang them. They have no idea at all. They really think that the current Huns are the former overlords of the grassland. Don’t they know that the tribes around Meiji are now the only Huns tribe in the world? If they lose Meiji,
Ji, the Huns are really going to perish!
Since the Xianbei Tanshihuai people rose up on the grassland, the remnants of the Northern Huns were driven by the powerful Xianbei people to the far northwest corner of Mobei and lingered. The more than 100,000 remaining Xiongnu households in Mobei joined the Xianbei and became
Xianbei people.
The only remaining Huns in the world are those within the territory of the Han Dynasty. This is why the Chan Yudu has a close relationship with the Han Dynasty in all dynasties. He did not dare to resist the Han emperor's recruitment of troops, and even sent thousands of people to Luoyang City to protect the Han Dynasty.
Emperor's security.
Even the Shan Yulian officials of the past dynasties did not dare to offend the Han officials, because they all knew that the Huns were too weak now, and the Han Dynasty was their only protection.
By the time of Qiangqu's generation, they were particularly alarmed that Lei Gong had occupied Shuofang and had cut off the Huns' retreat to the grassland. It was not that no Huns entered Lei Gong's territory, but as soon as the tribesmen who went to Lei Gong's territory disappeared, Lei Gong's arrival
Although Bingzhou has repeatedly attacked the Xianbei people in the past two years, the ones who suffered the most serious damage were the Huns.
After the Thunder Lord of Mayi came to Bingzhou, he easily annexed 100,000 of their Huns tribe. This was something that had never happened before. Not only did the annexed Huns not escape, but they often came to lure the Huns of Meiji to flee.
When he went to Mayi, Qiang Qu had nightmares again and again when he thought of the way Lei Gong treated them tribal leaders, fearing that the Huns would really perish in his hands. The big man had become the only support in his hands!
What on earth do they want to do by massacring various tribes to rebel? Who are they trying to threaten with this kind of rebellion, the big man? Or the Thunder Lord of Mayi? Aren’t they worried about setting themselves on fire and eventually attracting the Thunder Lord!
Faced with the danger of national survival, Qiangqu did not hesitate to set off from Meiji with 3,000 troops and rushed directly to the right tribe of the Xiongnu located on the south bank of the Yellow River. He wanted to meet with Xubu Guduhou and the leaders of other tribes. He hoped that they
Please be more clear-headed and don't insist on going your own way and attract the thunder from Bingzhou.
The leader of the right tribe, Yupeng King Xubu Guduhou, was the Zuo Guli King of the Xiongnu Shanyuting (the highest ranking Huns official second only to the left and right kings). He also commanded the general of the left and had great power, so he could
Easily respond to a hundred calls.
After Da Dan rushed to the tent in Qiangqu, he was surprised to find that Xubu Guduhou had secretly assembled an army of 30,000 troops without telling him.
Qiang Qu glared at Xubu Guduhou and asked angrily: "If you want to be a great Chanyu, just say, no matter what, I will give it to you, but what do you mean by rebelling? Don't you know that the big man is the biggest among us Huns now?"
Rely on me! Are you trying to attract the Thunder Lord from Mayi?"
Xubu Guduhou sneered: "Qiang Qu, you are as timid as a mouse, but not all the Huns are like you! What about Lei Gong? He just won a few battles, and you are scared to death. He keeps
Occupying our territory and devouring our tribesmen, you don't even dare to resist. You only know how to spend money, cattle and sheep to bribe Dong Zhuo, a greedy man. Is it useful? It's of no use at all.
Now the Han Emperor not only refuses to help us deal with Lei Gong, but also recruits 30,000 of our tribes to fight for him. With these 30,000 tribes, can’t we fight for ourselves? Can’t we attack Mayi? Even if we are defeated
Even if I kill Lei Gong, I have to bite off a piece of Lei Gong's flesh so that he doesn't dare to look down on us, instead of being submissive to others like you, what kind of Chanyu are you!"
Although the Huns surrendered to the Han, they still retained the habits of the grassland people. The Huns' Chanyu could be cruel and ruthless, and they could kill, but they had to use strong force to frighten the inside and outside. Obviously, the weak Qiangqu was not qualified in the minds of the Huns.
of Chanyu.
Qiang Qu sneered: "A bunch of reckless men, do you want to completely bury the Xiongnu? If I could defeat Thunder God, I would have done so! But even the Xianbei people are not the opponent of Thunder God, and even the Xianbei people's western master Luri Deduction will die.
In the hands of Thunder Lord, you can defeat Thunder Lord!"
Xubu Guduhou smiled and said: "We Huns alone are not enough, but it will be different if we add the Xianbei people. We have already formed an alliance with the Xianbei people, and both sides have gathered 140,000 cavalry. Lei Gong will definitely die this time!"
Qiang Qu was surprised: "You actually led a wolf into the house! You have forgotten the hatred between the Xianbei people and us Huns!"
The Xianbei people stepped on the Huns and became the overlords of the grassland, so Qiangqu was surprised that Xubu Guduhou actually contacted the Xianbei people!
Xubu Guduhou laughed and said: "It is better to lure the wolf into the house than to be annexed by the Thunder Lord. We have made an agreement with the Xianbei people. The pastures of the Xianbei people in the west will belong to the Xianbei people. We will occupy the entire Shuofang three counties. If we can annihilate the Thunder Lord, we will have the wealth of Mayi."
Share it equally with the Xianbei people!"
Qiang Qu said angrily: "You crazy people want to bet on the future of the entire Huns. As a Huns, I will not agree!"
Xubu Guduhou said: "You don't need to agree. We all know that you have no bones. Now that the heads of the entire Xiongnu tribe have agreed, you should go to Luoyang City to perform a dance for the Han Emperor. Watch what I do."
Destroy the Thunder Lord!"
Qiang Qu looked at Xubu Guduhou, shook his head helplessly and walked out of the tent. He could understand that Xubu Guduhou looked down on him.
Because he is an unpopular Xiongnu Chanyu. His position as Chanyu was not obtained by relying on his own strength, but by relying on Zhang Xiu, the middle man who protected the Huns. In the eyes of the Huns, it is not a legal inheritance.
Moreover, Qiangqu has been like a dog over the years, loyally obeying the orders of the Han Dynasty and allowing a large number of his tribe to die fighting for the Han Emperor. This has aroused dissatisfaction among the Huns tribesmen.
But everything he did was for the survival of the Huns!
He didn't understand why Xubu Guduhou wanted to provoke Thunder Lord. If they really fought with Thunder Lord, what would be left for the Huns? Do they really want all the Huns to die on the battlefield?
Qiang Qu was shot to death by a long arrow that suddenly appeared on his way back to Meiji. Then the entire Huns tribe began to support Xubu Guduhou as the new Chanyu of the Huns.
Xubu Guduhou, who became the Chanyu, gathered all the young Huns together. A total of 80,000 Huns warriors gathered in Meiji!
Xubu Guduhou shouted to these warriors: "Warriors of the Huns, it's time to take back our cattle and sheep, our pastures, and our women. Let's all go to Shuofang and kill Thunder Lord!"
"Kill Thunder Lord!" Kill Thunder Lord!
"Kill Thunder Lord!" all the Huns tribal leaders yelled. Thunder Lord has become their demon in the past two years. They have to open one eye when sleeping, for fear that they will die in sleep and have their heads cut off by their own tribes.
!
Now the Huns finally have a great hero, and he will bring all the Huns to resist the tyranny of Lei Gong!
Then the Huns divided their troops into two groups, attacking Yunzhong County and Luo County! At the same time, the Xianbei launched an army of 60,000 to attack Shuofang County and Wuyuan County respectively. At one time, 140,000 troops attacked.
