Wen Chou and Zhang He took turns adding insult to injury, beating Yan Liang until his head was covered with bruises, and he screamed that he wanted to fight with several people.
Jia Xu sat on the commander's seat, twirling his beard and nodding his head.
Guo Fengxiao deserves to be regarded as a genius in the world. He managed the Western Army to make the whole army harmonious, which is really commendable.
Zhang Ji, who lives outside Hangu Pass, has been experiencing both wind and rain during this period, and he feels that his life has reached its peak.
The six families of Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, Dong Min, Niu Fu, and Li Su made a mess, especially since Hongnong was adjacent to the four counties of Wudu, Hanyang, Anding, and Beidi. All four families sent envoys to negotiate.
, hoping that Zhang Ji would send troops to help, while the two counties of Jincheng and Longxi, which were far away, also sent envoys to visit, hoping that Zhang Ji could join forces with them to attack from both sides.
When Dong Zhuo was there, everyone acted as equals. At most, Li Su's status was slightly lower, but he was still a brother and brother, and they seemed to be friendly.
Unexpectedly, after Dong Zhuo's death, no one would obey anyone, and all wanted to be the boss of Xiliang.
Zhang Ji was puzzled. With the fight like this, have you thought about the threat of Ma Teng from the northwest?
Once Hua Xiong fails to withstand it and lets Ma Teng's army go south, everyone will be waiting to be defeated one by one and imprisoned!
It's not that Zhang Ji has a far-sighted view than others, but he doesn't have the ambition to unify Xiliang, so he has some resistance to the Chaos Zhan group.
Having just sent away the messenger sent by Li Ru, Zhang Jizheng was sitting alone in the meeting hall thinking.
At this time, Li Ru and Zhang Wen were trapped in Sanshui City. They had no soldiers or generals. They only had three to five thousand Dong Zhuo's original guards. Although they were strong in combat, their troops were meager. They could only protect themselves, but they had no power.
The strength to participate in the war.
Dong Min has given Li Ru an ultimatum. If Li Ru refuses to open the city and surrender within ten days, don't blame Dong Min for ignoring the original friendship and sending his troops to storm Sanshui City.
Li Ru sent a messenger to look for Zhang Ji, for no other reason than to hope that Zhang Ji could help him say a word and prevent Dong Min from annexing Sanshui City.
Sanshui City is located at the junction of Anding County and Beidi County, and is located in Anding County.
Li Ru was willing to surrender to Dong Min, but was unwilling to be annexed by Dong Min. As long as Zhang Ji made suggestions to Dong Min, Sanshui City could maintain sufficient autonomy.
But Zhang Ji really didn't want to help Li Ru.
First of all, Li Ru was a mean man. When Dong Zhuo was still alive, relying on his father-in-law's favor, he humiliated all the generals in the army, including the general Hua Xiong.
Secondly, Zhang Ji knew very well that despite the fact that all the generals were extending olive branches to him, it was because they had beaten each other to pieces and were counting on Zhang Ji to come and help.
Once Zhang Ji chooses a camp, he will immediately be involved in the fighting group, and it will not be easy to retreat.
If we really count, apart from the general Hua Xiong, Zhang Ji is the strongest among the generals at the moment.
This is related to Jia Xu’s original plan for him.
Dong
Most of Zhuo's worthy generals led an army alone, but Zhang Ji's generals were all star-studded. He was followed not only by his nephew Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the North, but also by general Hu Zhen and fierce general Hu Che'er.
Hu Zhen was extremely favored by Dong Zhuo during his lifetime, and was once named the Protector of the Xiliang Army. Even Hua Xiong and Lu Bu were under his control.
It's a pity that Hu Zhen likes to be exaggerated, and Lu Bu hates him very much, and has never cooperated with his command, which also makes Hu Zhen never have a good record to support him.
Later, Lu Bu was persuaded by Wang Yun and led his army to rebel against Dong Zhuo's camp. This big blame finally fell on Hu Zhen's head.
Dong Zhuo complained that Hu Zhen, as the commander-in-chief, failed to take good care of Lu Bu's army, which resulted in the loss of Hongnong. He was furious and wanted to punish Hu Zhen for his negligence.
It was Zhang Ji who, under Jia Xu's instigation, interceded for Hu Zhen, saved Hu Zhen's life and had to serve as a general under Zhang Ji.
Although another general, Hu Cheer, has the same surname as Hu Zhen, there is no relationship between them.
Hu Che'er was a Hu general who was defeated by Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the north, and followed Zhang Xiu with all his heart.
This Hu Che'er is not an ordinary person. He is extremely powerful, brave and good at fighting. Although he does not have strong ability to lead an army, he is an expert in charging into battle.
In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it was Hu Che'er who entered Cao Dabai's camp at night and stole Dian Wei's double iron halberds, which caused Dian Wei to guard the camp gate without the weapons, in order to protect Cao Dabai.
Face retreated and died in battle.
So despite the fact that Zhang Ji is not very impressive on weekdays, he is submissive and does not like to compete with others, in fact, in terms of strength alone, the Xiliang generals should take him as the leader.
Just when Zhang Ji was wondering whether to give Li Ru a hand, a personal guard came in to report that someone came to deliver a letter, but he refused to identify himself and only said it was a letter from an old friend.
Zhang Ji took the letter and opened it, and was shocked when he saw it.
Astonishingly, it was a letter from Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, who had long since disappeared in the grassland.
In the letter, Jia Xu made everything clear to Zhang Ji, saying frankly that he was about to lead the Western Army of Lin's Army out of Hangu Pass to attack the northwest. If Zhang Ji was willing to listen to Jia Xu's good advice, he could open the gates of Chang'an and surrender. But if he insisted on going his own way, both sides would be in danger.
We can only meet each other with swords and swords, and can no longer care about the feelings of old friends.
Zhang Ji, with trembling hands and feet, ordered his bodyguard to invite Zhang Xiu to come.
It's not that he was afraid of Lin Jun. After all, he had led an army to fight for more than ten years, so he still had some courage.
It's just that Jia Xu is not easy to deal with. This person is very resourceful and uses insidious tactics. People often fall into the trap without knowing it and cannot save themselves.
Zhang Xiu heard his uncle's call and rushed there.
"Uncle, I don't know why I called my nephew here."
"Xiu'er, I just received a letter from Jia Wenhe. Please wait and see."
Zhang Xiu read the letter and threw it aside: "Uncle, why should you worry? I think Lin Jun is just exaggerated by the dogs in the Central Plains. If he really dares to go out and fight, my nephew is willing to lead an army to kill all Lin Jun."
.”
Zhang Ji frowned: "Xiu'er, you can look down on others, but you need to be extremely careful when facing Jia Wenhe. You have seen what this person is capable of, and it will be difficult to deal with him."
Zhang Xiu looked up to the sky and laughed: "A mere sword-wielding officer can only point and point in the military tent at the rear. If he really dares to come to the front of the two armies' formations, he will not be able to receive a single blow from our cavalry."
Seeing that his nephew was full of confidence, Zhang Ji put down his worries a little, but just warned Zhang Xiu a lot not to be careless.
Zhang Xiu personally led the army out of Chang'an, with Hu Che'er as the vanguard, and headed straight for Hangu Pass.
Hu Che'er led the vanguard who had just arrived in Xin'an County and was about to send people to the city to inform local officials.
Suddenly, gunfire roared from all directions, and countless ambush troops rushed out, surrounding Hu Cheer's forward battalion.
The two armies faced each other, and the two enemy generals rushed out together. The banners behind them were fluttering in the wind, and the word "Hua" written on them read "Dou Da". It was the arrival of Liao Hua's "Hua" camp.
Hu Che'er saw that he was ambushed, but he did not panic. He slapped his horse and waved his sword and came to the front of the two armies.
Just as he was about to call for formation, Huaziying roared loudly, and Guan Hai, a big fool, urged his horse to charge out.
When he came to Hu Che'er, he didn't say anything. He closed the door and chopped off his head with a big knife.
Hu Che'er raised his sword to parry, and the two of them fought together.
Speaking of which, Hu Che'er did have few opponents in the Xiliang area, but that was only because there were no tigers in the mountains, so he, the monkey, could dominate.
Now when he meets General Guan Hai, he is really no match for him.
Hu Cheer's strength is only 82 points, but Guan Hai has a solid 88 points.
After a long battle, Hu Cheer gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hu Che'er did not dare to fight. He parryed Kai Guanhai's closing door knife with a feint, then turned his horse and tried to escape back to the main formation.
When Liao Hua saw Hu Che'er trying to escape, he immediately raised his big gun in the air and waved his troops to cover him up.
Hu Cheer finally escaped from Guan Hai, but before he had time to calm down, he met Liao Hua head-on, and was shot several times by Liao Hua, and his hands and feet were all sweaty and numb.
Liao Hua's force value has also reached 85 points. Normally, he does not stand out among Lin Feng's troops. This is just because Lin Feng has so many powerful generals under his command that Liao Hua looks dim against the background.
In fact, if Liao Hua is placed in any other camp, he must be a good general.
Hu Che'er was unable to defeat Guan Hai and was beaten to death by Liao Hua. He just wanted to escape. However, if he was not careful, Liao Hua caught the flaw and rushed into the battle circle with his big gun, hitting Hu Che'er hard in the ribs.
Plunged in.
It is said that the gun should go in and out from the left rib and the right rib, hitting Hu Che'er and wearing a candied haws. Fortunately, Hu Che'er is a Hu and has the custom of wearing a sterling silver belt. Liao Hua's gun happened to hit Hu Che'er's silver.
On the belt.
There was a stabbing sound, and the tip of the spear slipped on the silver belt. It failed to penetrate completely and tore Hu Che'er's battle robe along the silver belt around his waist.
