3. Han Sui's decision, watching a play, the elegy of the Qiang people
Han Sui is not an idiot, but now he would rather be an idiot.
"Bian Wenxin, where did this guy Bian Wenxin go? Have any of you seen this guy? Ah! Answer me!"
Han Sui's furious voice echoed in the Yuwei County Government Office. Just hearing this voice knew how bad the owner of the voice was at this moment. Therefore, even though Han Sui yelled several times, no one dared to step forward.
answer his questions.
After all, two people had already been stabbed by the angry Han Sui because of their poor answers. If Han Sui's most trusted subordinate Cheng Gongying hadn't happened to come here to report work to Han Sui, perhaps the two vivid names would have been replaced by this.
What a terrible way to die.
Men in the northwest don't mind dying in battle, but this kind of humiliating death will definitely not be welcomed by them.
It was not until a long time later that Cheng Gongying, who had returned, answered Han Sui's question. Of course, by this time Han Sui had calmed down again. He also knew that anger would not help him solve the problem, but might make him make wrong judgments.
.
"Bian Wenxin had already returned to Jincheng with his troops. Didn't he say that he was in charge of Longxi in the south and took over the troops from Yizhou? By now, he should have probably started the attack on Heguan."
"Join Yizhou's troops? Humph, Yizhou is now wearing the same trousers as the Dong thief. I didn't expect it. I thought Han Sui was also a hero of the generation, but who would have thought that he would be hunted by geese all day long?
Pecked my eyes! Well, Bian Wenxin is in the south. If that coward Liu Junlang dares to go north, Bian Wenxin can have some fun with him."
Han Sui spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm to the side bitterly. The current situation was very unfavorable to him. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a matter of life and death. Just like what he said himself, although he was usually cautious, but this time
But he was really deceived first by Dong Zhuo and then by Liu Yan. Even in his opinion, those Guandong princes were not trustworthy.
Fortunately, before he started the incident, he thought he had a chance to win.
The facts before him made even Han Sui, who had experienced many storms and waves, feel somewhat discouraged.
In fact, neither Li Shushi nor Jia Xu expected that the connection between Han Sui and the princes of Guandong did not just start recently. After all, as an official who could go to Beijing to meet the emperor, Han Sui and those in Luoyang City
There are countless connections between the children of the aristocratic families. Not to mention that he was born in Yuzhou. If it weren't for the fact that there are too many powerful aristocratic families in Yuzhou, he would like to be selected.
It is not easy to be named Xiaolian, virtuous and upright with such a promising background, and he would not take advantage of his study tour to take root in the remote Jincheng County of Liangzhou. However, the original relationship was not severed, and even because
His outstanding performance in Jincheng was strengthened to some extent. Even though he succumbed to becoming a thief, he did not break the bonds of these relationships.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Guandong princes, compared with princes like Dong Zhuo who started with force, Han Sui made them feel closer to them. Of course, this was also determined by the huge role behind Han Sui. Otherwise, the children of such a low-level small family would not matter.
Those who cannot get into the sight of those high-ranking disciples are like Li Shushi. Just like Sun Wentai.
The princes of Guandong hope that Han Sui, Bian Zhang and others will make some small moves behind Dong Zhuo to contain Dong Zhuo. It would be better if it can make Dong Zhuo feel physical pain, but this kind of self-sacrifice behavior will not be done as long as Han Sui is not mentally retarded.
Do. In fact, Dong Zhuo didn't trust Han Sui at the beginning. He left Niu Fu in Chang'an because he was afraid of Han Sui, an existence that made him uneasy.
After all, Bian Zhang and Ma Teng, both of whom were born and raised in Xiliang, have personal feelings about the situation and political demands of Xiliang people, but Han Sui is the only one who is a very special being.
He's not from Xiliang, right? This guy has been rooted in Xiliang for more than ten years, and he's still here
He opened a school in Xiliang to educate the people, and he has a very high reputation in Xiliang. But if you want to say that he is a Xiliang native, if it were not for the rebellion, he would obviously prefer to get close to those Guandong aristocratic families. After all, Han Sui
He originally came out of that circle, and he yearned for that circle even more.
However, later Han Sui accepted Dong Zhuo's recruitment and behaved very respectfully, which allowed Dong Zhuo to transfer Niu Fu away with peace of mind.
In fact, if Dong Zhuo's actions in Luoyang went smoothly, and at least his tiger body shocked the princes to bow to him or win them over, then Han Sui would also be happy to be a minister who obeyed the dragon. After all, he was already one of the four generals at that time, and his status was definitely high.
ensure.
However, Dong Zhuo was defeated. Even though he was still very strong for the time being, he could not conceal his decline. The most important thing was that both the information Han Sui obtained through his own channels and the information the Guandong princes let him see showed that Dong Zhuo was affected by that.
The impact of the First World War seems to have given rise to some very strange thoughts, and it seems that he no longer has the high-spirited and contemptuous courage he had before.
In addition, Han Sui had taken the initiative to shrink to Jincheng County for Dong Zhuo. If the Xiliang army returned to Xiliang, not only would there be no possibility for him to develop, he would even find it difficult to feed his troops. This made Han Sui's thoughts
Became active.
In fact, Han Sui's initial actions were quite smooth.
Although Li Shushi had arranged for Han Sui to join forces, and the Qu family, a famous family in Jincheng, had taken away most of its elite members, Han Sui still contacted many powerful people in Wuwei.
The Zhang family and the Zhang family in the south are still somewhat dissatisfied with the suppression, even if
At that time, Duan Jiong was the pride of Xiliang people in the north. Zuli Zhang family relied on Dong Zhuo's relationship to continue to expand its power since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, especially Zhang Ji's nephew named Zhang Xiu, who was a powerful ranger.
Er fought hard all the way and took the opportunity to expand his power, which made many families complain at that time.
As a result, Han Sui's army swept through the entire Wuwei County like a tiger emerging from its box.
At this time, another piece of good news came to Han Sui. The princes of Guandong contacted a very reliable helper for Han Sui, Liu Yan, who was in the Kingdom of Abundance. Liu Yan could not only provide Han Sui with a certain amount of military support, but more importantly
With the financial resources of the Kingdom of Abundance, the food and grass problem that had been bothering Han Sui was expected to be solved.
Even just transporting grain and grass from Hanzhong to Xiliang is not an easy task, but with the support of Yizhou, Han Sui is confident that he can attack all the way to Chang'an City. Anyway, Dong Zhuo's army was contained by the coalition forces in Henan and Hongnong.
One line.
As for Liu Yan's request that Han Sui support him as the emperor of the Han Dynasty afterwards, Han Sui fully agreed.
Anyway, he knew that he had no chance of sitting on the throne of the emperor, either from blood or other aspects, so he would be satisfied as long as he was given a status like Dou Rong in the end. He felt that his request was really not too much.
.
However, it seems that his good luck has ended here.
Just when he took down Wuwei and aimed his attack at Hanyang County and Anding County, and at the same time tentatively sent envoys and agents to Zhangye County, hoping to cause chaos in Zhangye and give himself an opportunity to take advantage of it, he was stunned.
happened.
According to Han Sui's news, Duan Yan, who was originally supposed to be in Hongnong, Luoyang, suddenly appeared in Beidi County and led his army to attack Wuwei. Zhang Ji, who was also supposed to be in Wuguan, also arrived in Anding.
County, and dispersed the main force of Han Sui's army who was preparing to attack. Yang Ding's army also appeared in Hanyang County. With the help of Hanyang Prefect Fu Xie, Han Sui's army was also defeated.
What made Han Sui even more speechless was that many of the Qiang people who originally wanted to make a profit and left immediately changed their banners when they heard that they were Dong Zhuo's army coming to conquer, and became the most loyal vanguard of Dong Zhuo's army.
.
If it weren't for the fact that many Qiang people missed Han Sui's good deeds and had some quarrels with Dong Zhuo at the beginning. After all, Dong Zhuo's rise relied on his friendship with Qu Shuai, a Qiang man. This is true, but in the process of his rise, for
After receiving military honors, they also killed a lot of Qiang people, so these people naturally would not follow in the rebellion, but instead wholeheartedly helped Han Sui to defeat Dong Zhuo.
In this way, Han Sui was attacked from three sides, no, perhaps it should be said from four sides, because under Sima Zhi's lobbying and persuasion, the Huns living in Yanze and the Qiang people in Zhangye's vassal state each sent five thousand cavalry to help.
, together with Zhangye's powerful coalition forces and Zhangye's newly trained county soldiers, a total of more than 16,000 people came from the northwest to attack Guzang, the seat of Wuwei.
Although this less than 20,000 troops was nothing to Han Sui, it was more than enough as the straw that broke the camel's back. Perhaps the only thing Han Sui was thankful for at this time was that his retreat speed was finally faster than his attack speed.
A little slower. After all, those rebellious Wuwei heroes were very resolute in their resistance in order to avoid being settled by the Queen. This naturally gave Han Sui an opportunity to take advantage of it. So by using these cannon fodder, Han Sui's strength was finally not completely eliminated.
Lose your money.
As for the news that Liu Yan sent his three sons to Chang'an to serve as officials, it was not a big blow to Han Sui. In other words, it was because of this news that Han Sui was really sure that he was the official this time.
He really fell into the enemy's trap, and Han Sui didn't even need to think about the person who set the trap, he knew whose handiwork it was.
As a result, when Li Shushi led his troops to Zhangye quietly, he found that things seemed to have come to an end.
It should be said that he is indeed the top strategist of Xiliang who is as famous as Jia Xu. If he doesn't take action, he will be like thunder without giving the opponent a chance to react. Moreover, his attack is ruthless and his style of leaving no leeway makes even
The people watching on the sidelines felt the strong coldness in it. Perhaps this was Li Ru's purpose, so that Han Sui's chicken could be used to its fullest potential.
"Bangjie, judging from the current situation, even if I am lucky enough to escape this time, I will not be able to make a comeback for a long time. You have been with me for so long, and I am not willing to do it for my own reasons.
Delay your future, if things are really irreversible, you...
Even if you surrender, I won't blame you. Whether it's Dong Zhuo or Li Xue, with your influence in Jincheng, they won't do anything to you. Even if you are temporarily buried, you have the ability. One day you will be the same.
You can stand out. Maybe my wife and children will need to rely on you to support them in the future."
"No, lord, don't say such depressing words. We still have a chance now. We are not without hope at all. And even if we fail, Ying is willing to follow the lord to the ends of the world. Please don't dislike Ying!"
"Even if I escape to Zhang Lu in Hanzhong and become an unnoticed diner, are you still willing to follow me? You actually..."
"Ying is also a man from the northwest, how can he go back on what he said? Or is it that the lord does not like Ying and thinks that Ying is a burden to the lord!"
"Hahahaha! How is it possible, how could I dislike you? I can't even be happy to have a brother like you. As long as you are here, Ying, even if I have to rely on someone else, I, Han Wen, will be able to get back together one day.
!”
"Lord!"
"Bonji!"
Okay, I always feel that if this continues, there will be some scenes that will make readers' impressions very dangerous.
"In this case we need to prepare early."
"But now all the enemies are staring at us. Unless we escape secretly, we are afraid..."
"It's actually not difficult to ask those guys to keep their eyes on you, as long as we make some changes. But Bunjie, now you have to return to Jincheng. On the one hand, you need to pack some belongings that you can take with you. On the other hand, you need to move the people who are loyal to us.
The elite troops were broken into pieces and asked to gather at Yinping Road in the Guanghan vassal state. Although the mountains there were steep, few people paid attention there because of that. They could get there calmly. Then they would dress up as bandits or water bandits.
Business travelers entered Hanzhong."
"Please rest assured, my lord. Ying will definitely handle this matter so that my lord will have no worries. But my lord, you..."
"Don't worry, I, Han Wenyue, have my own means. I can definitely give those guys a big gift! Hahahahaha..."
Looking at Han Sui who seemed crazy but regained his confidence, Cheng Gongying didn't know whether this was good or bad.
But no matter how bad it is, it can't be too bad.
Cheng Gongying could only comfort himself in this way. He didn't want Han Sui to find that he had a little distrust in him. Although he was very loyal to Han Sui, Cheng Gongying was also a smart person and knew when was the best time.
What not to do.
Cheng Gongying left Yuwei soon. He needed to take Han Sui away. This was his choice, and he would not regret it.
Han Sui also started his plan. Although the situation was extremely bad for him, could this situation be worse than when he was captured by the rebels? So Han Sui, who had calmed down, was still
Has the ability to convince people.
He convinced the Qiang people that even if Dong Zhuo and Li Shushi joined forces, they would not have no chance, and that although the enemy forces were powerful and far superior in strength, they were not invincible. Even to prove that they were not invincible.
own
According to the statement, Han Sui also planned a small counterattack. Although such a tactical victory could not reverse the strategic decline, Han Sui's performance still made the Qiang people on Han Sui's side feel excited. After all, Han Sui can be regarded as Xiliang
A "wise man".
On the Loess Plateau in the south of Ganyin County, in the east of Yuwei County, and to the west of the Yellow River, the cold air of winter has not yet faded away. From time to time, you can see little bits of once-white snow polluted by various colors, reflecting little bits of beautiful snow under the sunlight.
pink clouds.
The chilly wind blows through the ravine-ridden hills from time to time, bringing up bursts of dust and heat from the sun.
However, on the days when these farming tools should have been repaired at home and ready to start farming as soon as the land thawed, a large number of people and livestock gathered in this area, and the white breath from their mouths could even obscure the
The sun in the sky.
Han Sui finally chose to fight Dong Zhuo's army here. Han Sui's army, with Qiang troops as the main body, faced Dong Zhuo's army with Qiang troops as the vanguard. Among them, many soldiers were fighting alongside Pao Ze half a month ago.
, but now they are taking a hostile stance for the survival and continuation of the tribe, singing familiar folk songs together, and wielding weapons towards familiar people.
"Zhongming, do you think these Qiang people will listen to us obediently? If they suddenly switch sides again, it will be very detrimental to us."
"Does Yuan Jiang still not believe Wen You's plan? After Xiang Guo left, these Qiang people became so dishonest under the instigation of Han Sui. This is the time for them to sober up and avoid being confused again. And even if they really think they can
Even if we are like a dead end, we still have to see if we have the ability
Yuanjiang has been in the south for a long time, so he doesn’t understand some of the situation. Mr. Xiangguo explained it before Xu left. By this time, there should be a troop nearby with similar thoughts to ours. If those Qiang people really
If you have such courage, what awaits them will be the end of their entire army being annihilated!"
"Zhongming, what kind of army can make Sir Xiangguo trust him so much? Don't be like that Hu Wencai."
"You don't have to worry about renovations. The Flying Bear Army is also the most elite force under the Prime Minister's command. The three of our troops combined are no match for others. I heard that they were defeated several times in the west.
Where is my Xianbei army?"
"Hiss..." Hearing Duan Xuan's words, Zhang Ji and Yang Ding took a breath, but soon the surprise in their hearts was replaced by a feeling of relief. Although the Flying Bear Army's record was a bit disappointing,
They were surprised, but under the leadership of Dong Zhuo, this Dong Zhuo team was the most powerful
The ace troops he relies on have similar results, so there is really no need to make too much of a fuss. Moreover, because of Li Shushi's series of victories against the Xianbei people, these men from Xiliang have lowered their combat effectiveness against the Xianbei people.
Two levels.
And now that the Flying Bear Army is plundering the formation, there is really no need to worry about the outcome of this battle.
Now, just relax and enjoy the Qiang people killing each other.
Even if it is a punishment for them daring to invade the Han Dynasty and invade their homeland of Xiliang people. (To be continued...)
ps: National Day is coming to an end. I took a look at the reports during National Day... As expected, everything about domestic travel during National Day is full of M-movies. I like to make trouble for myself the most...
