————————————————————————
Jincheng County began in the sixth year of Emperor Zhao of the Western Han Dynasty, which was 81 BC.
The area under its jurisdiction included the west of Lanzhou in Gansu Province and parts of Qinghai. Initially, there were nine counties under its jurisdiction.
As time went by, in the 13th year of Jianwu (AD 37), Jincheng County was merged into Longxi.
However, during the reign of Emperor Ming, the establishment of Jincheng County was restored, which governed seven counties: Yunwu, Jincheng, Yunjie, Zhiyang, Haomen, Lingju and Yuzhong. The seat of Jincheng County was still Yunwu
It was not until the end of Jian'an that the administrative seat of our county was changed to Yuzhong County. Therefore, it is not wrong to say that when Han Sui entered Yuzhong and stationed troops in Muyuan, he was violating the territory, because Muyuan was in Hanyang County; but
It is not too much to say that he did not commit any crime. Although Muyuan is the territory of Hanyang County, it is difficult to say clearly since the Bianzhang Rebellion. Anyway, no one has really taken over Muyuan.
In March of the ninth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao launched a general attack on Yecheng.
At the same time, Liu Bei started taking action in Nanyang County. After a sneak attack on Anzhong County, he planned to ambush Zhang Xiu, the prefect of Nanyang County.
When Zhang Xiu died, Nanyang was in chaos.
Guan Ping and Chen Dao each led an army and took the opportunity to seize Niyang and Jiyang.
Just when Liu Bei was about to capture Wancheng, Jia Xu took the lead and ordered the commander of the bandits to be defeated. The general Li Dian of the Zhonglang army arrived at Wancheng, gathered at sunset, and joined forces with Jia Xu to attack in a pincer attack, defeating Chen Dao and Guan Ping in one fell swoop.
, recaptured Jiyang.
Subsequently, Xiahou Dun led his troops to enter Wancheng.
Li Dianyue then defended Huyang and Jiyang separately, forming a force of arms to withstand Liu Bei's attack.
Zhang Xiu's son, Zhang Quan, stood firm in Rangcheng and refused to leave. Liu Bei had no choice but to temporarily withdraw his troops...
But even so, the loss of Anzhong and Niyang counties also indicates that the conflict between the Cao and Liu families is about to break out.
Han Sui received an uninvited guest at his residence in Yunwu County.
Ma Teng's sudden visit caught Han Sui more or less off guard.
"Wen Yue, how long have you and I known each other?"
In the hall, Ma Teng took a sip of wine and suddenly sighed.
Han Sui thought for a while and said, "We have known each other for nearly twenty years since the second year of Zhongping."
"Twenty years?"
Ma Teng smiled hoarsely, "Time flies so fast... I think back then, I was just a little pawn, but now I have gray hair on my temples. Wenyue, in the past twenty years, you and I have cooperated and had some unpleasant experiences, but
It doesn’t matter. You and I join forces to dominate half of Liangzhou, even that old man Wei Duan can’t do anything to you and me. We can only share weal and woe."
Han Sui said: "Exactly."
He didn't know why Ma Teng suddenly came to Jincheng.
However, he also believed that Ma Teng came here not just to reminisce about the past and talk about friendship with him.
But if Ma Teng didn't say anything, he wouldn't be the first to bring it up. He would just cater to Ma Teng and nod in agreement from time to time.
"The way of humanity is that when a man is born in this world, he should carry a three-foot sword and achieve unparalleled achievements.
Now, it is the time for us to show our strength and great ambitions, and I would like to ask Wen Yue to help me, how about it?"
The meat show is coming!
Han Sui sat up straight, looked at Ma Teng and said, "I don't know how much success you want to achieve in Shoucheng?"
"Although Liangzhou is good, it is still bitter and cold.
Although you and I own half of Liangzhou, we will never be able to achieve great things. Nowadays, the Central Plains is fighting, Cao Cao is trapped in Hebei, and it is difficult to escape. And the war in Hedong is fierce, and the troops in Guanzhong are empty... The ancients said that whoever wins Guanzhong will win the world, and some people don't want to
I want to go to the world, but I don’t want Guanzhong to be affected by the war. I ask Wen Yue to join forces and conspire with Guanzhong, is that okay?"
Ma Teng got straight to the point and directly stated what was on his mind.
This also made Han Sui not know how to refuse and how to deal with it for a while...
"Shou Cheng, do you want to be the king of Guanzhong?"
"Hahaha!"
Ma Teng smiled and shook his head repeatedly, "It doesn't matter who will be the King of Guanzhong. If Wen Yue wants to be the King of Guanzhong, I also support it.
However, I have sincerely treated Wen Yue, but Wen Yue deceived me."
Han Sui was startled, with a look of fear on his face, "Brother, where do you start with these words?"
"I am in Wuwei, ready to attack Hexi.
I asked Wen Yue to restrain Yang Yishan of Hanyang, but Wen Yue... I came today to tell Wen Yue that you and I share weal and woe, and that cooperation will benefit both parties, and separation will cause both harms. If Wen Yue has any request from you,
But it doesn't matter. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse. As for the future, if you want to sit in Guanzhong, I will stay in Liangzhou.
If you want to go to Liangzhou, I will go to Guanzhong... You and I have known each other for twenty years and everything is indisputable, what do you think?"
Han Sui was silent!
Ma Teng got straight to the point and expressed his feelings directly, which moved him a little.
That he has no ambition?
That's nonsense... In their position, if they say they don't have ambitions, it's absolutely impossible. However, Han Sui is not as strong as Ma Teng. For many years when the two have cooperated, he has always been in a supporting position.
Guanzhong?
It’s not that Han Sui didn’t want it!
But he knew very well that he couldn't...
"Brother, it is natural that you are the Marquis of Huaili and a former general appointed by the imperial court to supervise Liangzhou.
However, Mr. Shaodang and I have a very close friendship. Now I am trapped in the west of Longqi City. Life is becoming increasingly difficult. I have repeatedly requested that my brother can open Mucheng Valley... I am impudent to make this request, but I don’t know if my brother can agree to it.
?"
This Longqi City is located in Haiyan County, Qinghai Province today.
The Shaodang is a Qiang tribe living in the Hehuang area. The Shaodang king was dissatisfied with the rule of Tang Ti. After several fruitless struggles, he led his troops to leave Xiliang and settled in Hehuang. However, Qinghai at that time was more prosperous than Liang.
The state was still barren and cold. In such an environment, the Shaodang Qiang could barely survive with the help of Han Sui...
Longqi City was originally the seat of the Western Captain.
But after the Bianzhang Rebellion, this place was no longer under control... so Wang Meng became the Western Commander, but he could only settle in Longxi.
Now the person guarding Longqi City is Pang De and Pang Lingming.
Han Sui's words sounded like he was just asking for mercy for Shaodang Qiang, but they actually contained two meanings.
The first point is that you, Ma Teng, are the Marquis of Huaili and a former general.
With your status, you should sit in Guanzhong. So if you want to be the king of Guanzhong, I support it and will never object.
And this second point is Han Sui's request.
Ma Teng used the Qiang people to dominate Xiliang and developed to the present situation. Generally speaking, the Qiang people in Liangzhou obeyed the orders of the Qiang king, so Ma Teng could mobilize a large number of troops. But if the Qiang were killed from Hehuang
If they come out, they will definitely not surrender to Tang Ti, or in other words, they will not surrender to Ma Teng. The rise of Shaodang Qiang means the decline of Tang Ti Qiang.
Ma Teng and Tang Ti have a good relationship; Han Sui and Shaodang Laowang are even better!
Doesn't that mean that if you, Ma Teng, become the king of Guanzhong, just go to Guanzhong and give Liangzhou to me and I will rule.
This ancient man always likes to mince words when speaking.
In his words, Han Sui expressed his intention to occupy Liangzhou.
Ma Teng nodded repeatedly, "My dear brother, you are right."
Before, he called Han Sui "Wen Yue", but now he has changed his name to "Xiandi" to express the close relationship between the two.
"Young Master Ling Ming didn't do anything, but I was negligent!
That kid likes to be serious in everything, so... But don't worry, brother, I have ordered Ming to return to Wuwei and leave the town of Xuanwei County. From now on, Longqi City will be under the control of brother Xian, and Mucheng Valley will be burned from now on.
When Qiang opens up."
When Han Sui heard this, he was very happy.
He originally had the idea of testing, but Ma Teng agreed immediately.
Longqi City was originally ruled by Wu Wei. Ma Teng used this method to tell Han Sui that he was willing to hand over Liangzhou.
This is better, at least we are on the same page.
Han Sui was happy and immediately ordered a banquet to entertain Ma Teng.
The two exchanged cups and drank happily. After dark, Han Sui left Ma Teng to rest in the county house, but Ma Teng refused.
He took his troops and horses and stationed them outside the city. It would be better to return to the barracks.
When Han Sui heard this, he felt more relieved.
After holding Ma Teng and talking for a while, Han Sui politely sent Ma Teng out of the mansion. After Ma Teng left, Han Sui let out a sigh of relief. He felt unspeakably happy... When Ma Teng left, he
You can dominate Liangzhou...
Hehe, King of Guanzhong?
I don't care about that.
As long as I can be my king of Liangzhou, that's enough!
King versus king, no one of us is necessarily inferior to the other. Although Guanzhong is rich and Liangzhou is bitterly cold... but controlling Liangzhou means controlling the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions trade routes. Its wealth may not be less. And Guanzhong has been in successive years
The battle was quite dilapidated. When the time comes, we will have to spend a lot of effort to rectify it, and we will also have to face Cao Cao's counterattack from outside the pass.
After much thought, Liangzhou is better...
"My father-in-law, I always feel a little weird about this matter."
"oh?"
"Ma Teng is not such a generous person. Are you willing to give up Liangzhou so easily?"
Han Sui laughed and said, "Yan Ming, don't worry. Even if Ma Teng is perfunctory, as long as Shaodang Laowang fights out of Hehuang and joins forces with Baima Qiang, Liangzhou will be my world. When he goes back on his word, I will join Cao Cao and join forces with Cao Cao."
Deal with this person. If he agrees, then I will sit in Liangzhou, what can he, Ma Teng, do to me?"
After hearing this, Yan Xing was still a little worried.
But seeing Han Sui's happy mood, he couldn't say anything else... But it doesn't matter. If he wants to come to Ma Teng, we can't help him. Let's take this matter step by step. If he is really willing to give up Liangzhou, it's not
bad thing.
"My father-in-law, please rest early... My son-in-law has something else to do, so I'll go discuss it with Gongying."
"Go ahead."
Han Sui nodded casually and walked back to the back house.
Gongying, named Cheng Gongying, was also Han Sui's military advisor and was loyal to Han Sui.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cheng Gongying did not appear. But in history, he followed Han Sui in the late years of Zhongping and was regarded as a confidant by Han Sui. During Jian'an, Han Sui was defeated by Cao Cao. He defeated Huayin and returned to Huangzhong.
His tribes were all scattered, and only Cheng Gongying followed him. Later Han Sui was killed by his tribe. After Cheng Gongying avenged Han Sui, he surrendered to Cao Cao and paid homage to the marquis. He once joined the army to assassinate Zhang Ji from Yongzhou, and Hu Yijian with Lu Shui
The prostitutes and concubines were ordered to assist in the Pinglongyou rebellion in Liangzhou during the Yankang and early Huang dynasties, and later died of illness. This is also an outstanding person who has been forgotten by history and is unknown.
Cheng Gongying was originally ordered to leave Zhen Yuzhong, but he caught wind and cold and became bedridden at home.
Yan Xing went to Cheng Gongying to discuss matters in Yuzhong.
On the sick bed, after Cheng Gongying listened to Yan Xing explain Ma Teng's purpose, he couldn't help but frown and look thoughtful.
"This is indeed not Ma Teng's style."
"Yeah, I'm worried about Ma Teng's trick, but I can't think of any reason. My father-in-law believes in Ma Teng's words, which makes me very worried. Gongying, you are the person that my father-in-law trusts most, why not Ming***
Shall I give him advice again?"
Cheng Gongying thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
"Yan Ming, my body has recovered and I will go to Yuzhong the day after tomorrow at the latest.
After I leave, you must help the lord more. The lord has a long-term plan, but he will inevitably be negligent in small details. You should always remind him. In addition, you must be careful when playing with Liang Xing and others. These people are not reliable to be honest.
."
"Don't worry, military advisor, it's safe to travel!"
The two were in the study, discussing the upcoming war.
Before you know it, it's getting late and midnight is approaching...
Yan Xing stood up to say goodbye, and Cheng Gongying sent him outside the house.
Suddenly, a series of rapid banging sounds were heard from the direction of the city gate in the distance, followed by shouts of death and flames rising into the sky.
"what happened?"
Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying were both startled and looked toward the city gate in astonishment.
The shouts of killing became louder and louder, spreading throughout Yunwu County in an instant. At the same time, fire appeared in many places in the county, and in the blink of an eye, it became a sea of fire.
Enemy attack?
Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing looked at each other, with a look of horror in their eyes.
The two of them shouted in unison: "Ma Teng!"
Cheng Gongying turned around and shouted to the servants in the mansion: "Come here, lead my horse and prepare my sword."
"Gongying, do you have a big gun?"
"have!"
Yan Xing came to Cheng Gongying to discuss matters, and he was not wearing any weapons at all. The sudden shouts of killing caught him off guard. Fortunately, Cheng Gongying's house had many weapons, and Yan Xing chose a weapon weighing more than thirty kilograms.
He jumped on his horse without even having time to put on his armor. Cheng Gongying also hurriedly responded to the challenge, mounted his horse, carried a seven-foot sword, led his family, and rushed out with Yan Xing. He said seven
The Chi Dao has a dark red blade, which is a typical Cao Gong Dao, and is also named Qingshuang Ax. The knife weighs twenty-eight pounds, has one side open, a thick back, and a long and narrow blade. If Cao Peng is asked to judge, this Qingshuang Ax should be
It belongs to the work of Cao Ji before Guandu... rather than the level of Cao Ji today. In the market, this green frost ax sells for 1,200 guan.
Cheng Gongying's family was not large, about a hundred people.
Under the leadership of Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying, they rushed to the long street.
In the light of the fire, they saw rebels everywhere. Yan Xing and Cheng Gongying's expressions couldn't help but change, because they discovered that the rebels were not Ma Teng's Xiliang soldiers, but many of them were Jincheng soldiers. In other words, the Jincheng soldiers rebelled.
Already...
"He is the candidate!"
Cheng Gongying recognized the origin of those rebels at a glance and couldn't help shouting.
Candidate, one of Han Sui's eight generals.
He is also Han Sui's confidant... Moreover, Candidate has a very good relationship with Cheng Yin and Li Kan. Among them, Candidate and Li Kan are their sons and daughters. Since Candidate is against him, wouldn't it mean that Cheng Yin and Li Kan are also against him?
Could Ma Wan, Yang Qiu, Liang Xing, and Zhang Heng have also rebelled? How did Ma Teng say he surrendered them? How was the city gate opened?
A series of questions emerged in the minds of Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing...
However, they had no time to think about this. Yan Xing gritted his teeth and urged his horse to charge towards the rebels, "Gongying, save my lord quickly, I will stop them."
