Not long after Hua Xiong and Guo Si's three thousand troops left, Tan Ma came to report that the rebels outside Pingxiang City had been attacking for three days but still had not captured Pingxiang. This news made Dong Zhuo feel relieved a lot. Jia Rong
In any case, he came from Dong Zhuo's command, and he had a close friendship with Dong Zhuo in the past.
Dong Zhuo is actually very thoughtful. He is rescuing Jia Rong in a crisis now. If something happens to him in the future, I believe Jia Rong will not ignore it. This time, Dong Zhuo made the right calculation.
Two days later, Tan Ma came again to report that the rebels only surrounded Pingxiang and stopped attacking. At the same time, the rebels had captured Xianqin and Chengji counties.
It can be seen from the successive messages from Tanma that the rebel troops are getting closer and closer to Longguan, but Pingxiang has never been breached.
Let's say that Han Sui led his army to the foot of Long Pass. Looking at the terrain of Long Pass in the distance, he had a headache. The flag flying on the city made Han Sui want to retreat. Dong Zhuo had been famous in Xiliang for a long time.
Toughness is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Long Pass is dangerous, and Dong Zhuo is brave. When the two are combined, it will be harder to conquer Long Pass than to climb to the sky.
The rebels led by Han Sui have gone through successive battles and stationed troops in various counties along the way. Now they only have more than 40,000 people. It is obviously too difficult to attack such a pass.
Dong Zhuo led 3,000 cavalry out of the pass in a swaggering manner, waved his hands to Han Sui, and said with a smile: "Wen Yue, you are all well!"
Lou Shan, who was beside Han Sui, advised: "Dong Zhuo is so trustworthy, why don't we lead the soldiers to rush forward and kill Dong Zhuo directly outside the pass. In this way, the capture of Long Pass will be just around the corner."
Han Sui smiled bitterly and shook his head, pointing to the densely packed archers on the city wall. The crossbowmen said: "You don't know Dong Zhuo's bravery. He wants to return to the pass, and we can't stop him at all. Besides, do you really think that we and his three
Will a thousand cavalrymen gain any advantage in fighting?"
"After several years apart, Zhongying is still as charming as ever!" Han Sui replied with a smile.
"I heard that Brother Wenyue was coming, so I went out of the pass to greet him. If Brother Wenyue doesn't give up, how about we go to the pass to talk to him?" Dong Zhuo laughed loudly.
Han Sui replied calmly: "Zhong Ying's words are wrong. There is no shortage of good wine and meat in our coalition army. My brother even specially left a fine horse for Zhong Ying."
Dong Zhuo cursed: "Young Han Sui, you are a traitor. After I capture you, I will personally behead you in public!"
Dong Zhuo's sudden change of expression puzzled the people around him. Just now they were greeting each other like good friends, but why did they change their expressions in the blink of an eye?
Han Sui's expression was still as calm as before, "If Zhong Ying has the ability, just come and get it!"
"Hahaha, what a bullshit coalition, they are just a bunch of rabble, they can't even attack the small city of Pingxiang, hahaha..." Dong Zhuo laughed arrogantly.
Han Sui's expression immediately changed. All the generals in the rebel army had already opened their eyes angrily. They were just waiting for Han Sui's order. It can be said that Han Sui had excellent self-cultivation. He just suppressed the curse in his heart, neither salty nor light.
Chatted with Dong Zhuo for a while.
After Dong Zhuo cursed for a while, he rode his horse into the pass.
The rebels and Dong Zhuo's army faced off under Longguan. Neither side launched an attack, but there would be a brief moment every day when the defenders inside the city and the rebels outside the city would quarrel.
The confrontation between Han Sui and Dong Zhuo was purposeful. Now half of Hanyang County has fallen into the hands of the rebels. In less than half a month, the entire Hanyang County will be captured. By then, Pingxiang's Jia Rongjun will also be completely defeated.
With Dong Zhuo guarding Longguan alone, Han Sui also gave up the idea of marching into Sanfu. Now, taking Hanyang and defeating Jia Rong is his most real goal. At that time, Han Sui will own Jincheng and Hanyang.
The strength of the land will definitely change dramatically. It is not impossible to capture Longxi County and then Wuwei County in the next year, and unify Liangzhou.
The success of the war made Han Sui's imagination a little wild, and his ambitions became bigger and bigger.
When Huaxiong and Guo Si arrived at Pingxiang City, Han Sui had already led most of his troops to leave, and suddenly killed three thousand Han troops. Li Wenhou ignored this and allowed them to enter the city.
In Pingxiang City, Jia Rong took Guo Bang's hand cordially and asked, "It's been a few months since we last seen each other. I wonder how my brother is doing lately?"
Guo Bang patted Jia Rong's shoulder affectionately and said with a smile: "Very good, very good! Zhiyuan is getting better and better."
"What happened to Zhiyuan's arm? Is it injured?" Guo Bang asked nervously.
Guo Bang's expression showed no pretense. Jia Rong waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. I was hit by an arrow and it's almost healed. You see, I can already move." Jia Rong moved his arm as he said that.
Guo Bang hurriedly stopped Jia Rong's movements, "If you are injured, just rest well and don't move!" Guo Bang scolded.
Hua Xiong shouted from the side: "Can you two stop acting like pussies? How old are you already?"
Jia Rong punched Hua Xiong and said with a smile: "What's wrong, General Hua, how about we compete again?"
Hua Xiong waved his hands in fear and said: "This time we are here to help Zhiyuan defend the city, let's leave the competition later. Besides, Zhiyuan has an injury on his arm, so it is not fair to compete."
"It's okay. You can compete with my generals. I believe they will be very interested if they know it is General Hua." Jia Rong said with a smile.
Hua Xiong was really moved. He had challenged the generals in Dong Zhuo's army one after another, but it was not interesting. And Jia Rong was injured. After hearing what Jia Rong said, he really wanted to go to Jia Rong immediately.
Hua Xiong's martial arts has improved a lot in these days.
Jia Rong was deeply moved by the arrival of Guo Si and Hua Xiong, and his feelings for Dong Zhuo suddenly improved a lot. No matter how much notoriety Dong Zhuo left in history, it had little to do with Jia Rong. The people who were besieged in Pingxiang City
Under the circumstances, he resolutely sent Hua Xiong and Guo Si to come. While Dong Zhuo guarded Longguan, he resolutely divided his troops for rescue, which made him feel grateful. The icing on the cake is always better than providing help in the snow.
Jia Rong asked: "How is Mr. Dong doing lately?"
Hua Xiong sighed: "General Dong is very good, but he always thinks of Zhiyuan."
Jia Rong's heart was also pinched tightly by Hua Xiong's words, and he immediately concealed his inner excitement. Enthusiasm often only leads to bad things. He just needs to keep Dong Zhuo's friendship in mind, "Now there is no big city in Pingxiang City."
Hey, Han Sui and his rebels should have arrived at Longguan, right?"
The two of them nodded together. Their scouts had not been idle along the way, otherwise they would not have been able to easily avoid most of the rebels and reach Pingxiang.
After Jia Rong arranged the reinforcements, he began to make a series of preparations. Jia Rong vaguely felt that a great achievement was beckoning to him, and the breakthrough point of everything was Li Wenhou outside the city.
All the big rocks at the four gates of Pingxiang City were moved away. Jia Rong had decided to let Han Sui have a taste of it. Jia Rong was very upset about the arrow injury on his arm.
Late at night, the city gate of Pingxiang City was opened a small crack, and several figures quickly rushed in, following the person who opened the door to the military camp in the city.
Jia Rong looked at the figure next to him and was deeply moved. The ancients valued integrity too much. In this regard, people in the future seem so philistine.
"How is Brother Wenhou doing lately?" Jia Rong asked, calming down.
Marquis Li Wen bowed respectfully: "My lord, what happened to the Qiang tribe recently is really hard to explain in words. Han Sui conspired to kill the captain who was protecting the Qiang people, so that we Qiang people had to join the rebel camp."
Jia Rong showed a look of surprise and said slowly: "Now I am the captain appointed by the Han Dynasty to protect the Qiang, responsible for all matters between the Han Dynasty and the Qiang people."
Li Wenhou showed joy on his face and said excitedly: "So, the Han court wants to make peace with our rebels?" The Han Dynasty has a vast territory and dense population, which is not something the Qiang people can resist. If they continue to resist, they will only
The Qiang people will be completely erased from history.
Jia Rong said solemnly: "No matter what the Han Emperor means, I have taken care of the Qiang people's affairs. It is impossible for the Qiang people to go against the Han people like this."
Li Wenhou fell to the ground and said, "It's a blessing for the Qiang people that my lord has such a heart!" People's minds were fixed, even the warlike Qiang people were no exception. If Liangzhou officials hadn't repeatedly made things difficult for the Qiang people, the Qiang people would have
They are not willing to go to war with the Han people at all. The majesty of the Han people has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even the Huns, who were so glorious in the past, have been defeated. It is only a matter of time before the small Qiang people are destroyed.
Jia Rong helped Li Wenhou up and said: "Marquis Wen is a Qiang, and most of the soldiers under my command are also Qiang. The Qiang tribe can live a stable life, which is what everyone expects."
"I wonder what my lord wants to do? Now the troops outside the city are all our troops." Li Wenhou brought the topic to the point.
Jia Rong told Li Wenhou the result he had already thought about.
Jia Rong's strategy is to capture the entire rear of the rebels. It is very convenient to use Li Wenhou's identity as a Qiang to deceive the city. The generals who defend the city will definitely not take any precautions. They will take them by surprise and attack them unprepared.
All the places occupied by Jincheng County were taken back, leaving the rebels nowhere to hide.
However, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty treated him like this, and at least he had to take a small revenge. Otherwise, it would not be in line with Jia Rong's style. Keeping Han Sui in Hanyang County would greatly weaken the influence of the Han court in Jincheng County. By then, Jincheng County
The county will definitely become one of its own, and the territory of Jincheng County is not comparable to that of Beidi County.
Li Wenhou agreed with Jia Rong's strategy. Jia Rong is now the captain of the Qiang Guard and is fully responsible for the affairs of the Qiang people.
After the discussion, Jia Rong quietly sent Li Wenhou outside the city. As expected, the Qiang army outside the city would undergo great changes tomorrow.
After Li Wenhou left, Jia Rong sent soldiers to recruit Hua Xiong and Guo Si to the county government overnight.
After hearing Jia Rong's call, the two of them rushed over.
Jia Rong picked the burning lamp flame and placed the sword on his waist on the table.
"I plan to counterattack Jincheng County occupied by the rebels and take back the lost city!" Jia Rong said firmly.
Guo Bang looked at Jia Rong in surprise and asked: "Don't be reckless with your ambitions. There are 20,000 Qiang troops outside the city. The commander is Marquis Li Wen of the Qiang tribe. This man is resourceful, brave and good at fighting, unlike the few in the city."
Thousands of soldiers and horses can defeat you."
