After instructing Yan Yuhaosheng to put the troops on guard, Zheng Pu and Zhuge Qiao, escorted by Qiyacuo and other tribesmen, left the Hexi coalition camp and headed for the Guanxing camp.
At this point, the war has come to an end.
Except for Huang Hua, Ke Wu and Hu Bo Juzhi who escaped from the battlefield in time, the other Hexi coalition forces all became turtles in the urn.
The soldiers at the bottom had lost their morale due to the long battle. When the Han army shouted "Float on the ground without killing" in order to surrender, they all lost their fighting spirit and abandoned their swords and spears and surrendered.
As for those Haoyou and Qianghu tribe leaders who were lured by Jia Xu with paintings of land or money and food, it was even worse.
As soon as he saw that the situation was not good, he forgot the heroic words he had made when he was about to take the oath and set off, and directly fell to the ground and begged to surrender and survive.
It also made Zheng Pu, who was walking slowly, beam with joy.
After making the plan, the Tibetan soldiers lurked in the west of Stone Mountain for nearly three months. He also worried about gains and losses for more than eighty days and nights.
Now I get what I wanted, isn’t it wonderful!
Even Zhuge Qiao, who always paid attention to nourishing his energy and rarely went into battle, was smiling with joy all the way while walking on a battlefield full of broken limbs and desolate fields.
"Ge Jun, stop laughing."
Zheng Pu, who was fond of teasing, took a sneak peek and couldn't help but joked, "You have dead grass on your beard."
"ah!"
Hearing this, Zhuge Qiao exclaimed.
He quickly lowered his head and stroked his beard with his hands, but even after stroking it several times, his fingers could not find any dead grass.
When he raised his head, he saw Zheng Pu's half-smiling expression. Then he realized that he had been tricked and couldn't help but feel angry, "Zheng Jun is really a frivolous person!"
"Hahaha~~~"
Zheng Pu laughed and raised his hands to accuse, "Ge Jun, please don't be angry. I just saw that today's battle was a great victory and the Hexi Corridor has entered the river. I am so happy that there are no words to express, so I was rude and disrespectful for a moment. Forgive me! Forgive me!"
"Ha~"
Zhuge Qiao, who has a gentle temperament, also smiled and waved his hand, "I have known what Jun Zheng's temperament is, so there is no need to hide it, hahaha~~~ Moreover, if Jun Zheng can plan an attack like today,
I will let Mr. Zheng make fun of you!"
Suddenly, Zheng Pu's face showed a bitter look, "Jun Ge's words are very difficult to force!"
"Haha~~"
Just as the two of them were chatting and laughing, a soldier carrying an order flag came quickly.
When he came to the front, he saluted and said, "Report! Zheng Hujun, I am an official under Zhang Taishou. I was sent to report that Jia Xu and Pang Hui, the traitor generals who rebelled against Wei, have been trapped by our army. The Taishou asked the guards to go and make a decision.
"
Governor Zhang is Zhang Yi.
Just like Wei Yan who also held the post of governor of Liangzhou, before the troops were sent out, he was invited by Prime Minister Zhuge Liang in advance to be the governor of Jincheng.
"good!"
Hearing that Jia Xu, the governor of the Western Wei Dynasty, did not escape, Zheng Pu couldn't help but praise him, "Quickly lead the way!"
After a while, we will arrive.
I saw a low hill beside the water bank to the east of Guanxing Camp, surrounded by two men, Zhang Bao and Zhang Yi.
I saw a flag hanging drooping in the wind on the short hill where I was trapped, and more than thirty Wei soldiers whose armor and clothing should be that of personal guards, all holding shields and swords to protect the two men in the middle.
One person seemed to be in his thirties, with an angry expression and a look of unwillingness. This must be Pang Hui.
The other man was over fifty years old, his beard and hair were white with frost, and his helmet was abandoned on the ground. He was standing with his eyes closed and his hands behind his back, as if he had not heard of the situation of being besieged.
He must be Jia Xu.
"Why is it so late for Zijin to come!"
Their armors were covered with bloodstained Guan Xing. When they saw Zheng Pu and Zhuge Qiao arriving, they came to the crowd in great joy and pretended to blame him, "Zi Jin is the commander of an army of 30,000 people. Seeing that I was besieged by Ni Wei, I unexpectedly
Delaying it for three hours, how can it be so evil!"
Unable to help, Zheng Pu smiled.
First, he bowed his hands to Zhang Yi, Zhang Bao and others in return, and helped Liu Lin, who came over to salute after hearing the sound, and muttered angrily to Guan Xing, "The first contribution to the victory in this battle must be made by Anguo! We are suffering from hunger and cold.
They all worked hard to stabilize the country, but they were blamed for evil? Alas, today we know why people’s hearts are not as old as ancient times!”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
Guan Xing couldn't help but bow his hands in a circle and thanked them one by one.
Similarly, he also led Zheng Pu forward and told him the reason why he refused to kill Jia Xu because he was trapped by the Han army. When Jia Xu was trapped by the Han army, he claimed to invite the Han army commander here to meet him.
Guan Xing and others discussed this and felt that there was no need to refute it.
The overall situation has been decided, so there is no harm in seeing what the defeated general wants to say.
If there is nothing good to say, it is not too late to kill him.
Zheng Pu also felt strange.
Because he felt that Jia Xu, who had spent half his life in the army, would not surrender.
After all, the Wei State has suffered many defeats over the decades, but there are very few generals who can defeat the enemy as if they were banned.
"General Jia, I am Zheng Pu of the Central Guards. I have been appointed by former General Hu Fu to supervise the troops here. I wonder what the general is asking for when he sees me?"
Zheng Pu, who was protected by Bu Qu, took more than ten steps closer and raised his hands to ask questions.
"really!"
Jia Xu, who had long been awakened by the silence and opened his eyes, said with some emotion, "In the past, Grand Sima said that you were the 'big trouble of Wei', but I didn't take it seriously. Today's defeat is all my own fault, because I thought you were still recovering from your injured ears!"
Well.
Did you invite me to meet you just to know if you are my military commander?
Zheng Pu was speechless.
But Jia Xu didn't wait for him to speak, and continued, "Zheng Hujun, my aunt Jia's family has never done anything against the Han Dynasty. You and I are our own masters, and we kill on the battlefield, but we can't seek disaster for our family."
It turns out you are worried that I will hold you accountable~~~
Could it be that the Han officials said that my temperament was similar to that of a Yihou, but even those in the Wei Dynasty heard it!
Feeling a little sad, Zheng Pu's face felt like a spring breeze, "I am a man who has always been benevolent and righteous, General Jia does not need to worry. For example, although Huang Gongheng of Brazil defected to Wei, he left Huang Chong, his son of Shu, and now he is the emperor's close servant!"
"Thank you!"
Hearing this, Jia Xu's eyebrows widened, and after a sincere salute, he turned back to look at the guards and said, "You who are listening to orders are innocent, don't follow my example."
After saying this, he suddenly drew the blade across his neck and blood suddenly appeared.
He actually committed suicide.
"General."
All his personal guards who had no time to stop him surrounded the corpse and wept, which also made the watching Han army feel sad.
Although they are hostile, they do not hesitate to show respect to those who risked their lives.
Zheng Pu, who was watching silently, seemed to suddenly think of something, and said aloud, "If you surrender, I will allow you to bury General Jia's body and carry the coffin back to his hometown for burial."
The mourning guards already looked determined, and they couldn't help but look at each other after hearing this.
The fox dies on the first hill, and the soul returns to its hometown.
With the inheritance deeply rooted in the bones of the Han family, it is the last wish of all soldiers who participated in the war to be buried in their hometown.
There is no difference between Han and Wei.
Soon, one of the guards removed his armor, discarded his sword and shield, bowed his head, and the others followed suit.
The Han soldiers did not need to give orders, so they tacitly agreed to give up a passage and let them help Jia Xu's body out and bury it.
As for sending him back to Guzang for burial.
It will take some time.
After all, before the Northern Expedition of the Han Dynasty, Wei Ping, Jia Xu and Hao Zhao had been stationed in Jincheng and Xiping counties for more than ten years. Now they were in charge of the Hexi Allied Forces and were defeated. If Zheng Pu had not sent them to Jincheng County to disintegrate the rebellion,
Wei Junxin, then reading the military book is in vain.
After all Jia Xu's personal guards were escorted away by the Han army, the small short hill was once again surrounded.
Because there are still six people who are still standing still.
