For the Hehuang Zhuqiang, who responded to the first Lingqiang to raise troops, in mid-to-early January, good news continued one after another.First of all, Le Sister Qiang of Anyi County succeeded in luring the enemy, and let Xin Wuxian, the western governor, lead more than 2,000 county soldiers deep into the Huangxia, but the grain route was cut off, and the Qiang army could not be found.Xin Wuxian was unwilling to return empty-handed, and when faced with a dilemma, he was ruthless, and even led his soldiers to climb the high mountains in the river valley, and went towards the big and small elm valleys, the base camp of Xian Lingqiang.On the other side, after Yang Yu, the first great tyrant, placed his clansmen in the deep mountains and old forests, he left the big and small elm valleys with the main force, marched east along the big river, and joined forces with the prison sister Qiang of Baishi County, and besieged Heguan County together with the feudal Qiang in the north, with more than 20,000 troops!
Most of the soldiers of Jincheng County were taken away by Xin Wuxian, there was not much left, the river pass lasted for ten days and then broke, Taishou Changshi died in battle, the Qiang people slaughtered the Han people in the city, and after crossing the river, they drove straight in, and soon arrived at Yunwu, the county city of Jincheng, and began to besiege but not attack, only waiting for the north of Yufei and Tangliang to open up the Haomen water, and come to the south to converge.But as the time came to the second half of the month, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the Qiang people.First of all, the Yufei who marched into Haomen Water was defeated, and even the fried Gongqiang Haoshuai and Liang were also killed, and Yufei and Daigo Ada retreated westward with the remnants, followed by the chases of the Xiaoyue clan Yicong, they did not dare to fight the Qiang people head-on, and it was powerful to beat the water dogs, desperately trying to bite a few more pieces of meat from the retreating Qiang people.This was not over, but on January 20, a group of more than 1,000 cavalry mixed with Han and Hu appeared on the other side of Huangshui, starting with a banner with the word "Ren".Captain Ren Hong, since the battle of Haomen Water, this name has spread all over Huangzhong.And the cavalry under his command, even more strangely like the one who sent someone to report it, could directly cross the frozen Huangshui and attack the Qiang tribe stationed by the river!
After suffering a loss, the Qiang people could only ask a few gods of Polle what was going on, and withdrew the tribes by the waterside to the interior.Although Ren Huqiang's gallop brought some trouble to the Qiang people, as the weather warmed up day by day, the ice on the Huangshui River became thinner and thinner, and those cavalry equipped with horseshoe grippers would sooner or later lose the advantage of surprise attacks.But another news came from the east, but it besieged Yunwu for several days, but because the county city wall was high and strong, Zhuqiang, who had not even touched the head of the city, blew up the nest, and began to blame each other."
I have long advised Yang Yu, don't be in a hurry to rebel, now the Han emperor sent the widow General Zhao Chongguo to come, he is sixty or seventy years old, familiar with Hehuang, good at using soldiers, I heard that the soldiers brought are not less than ours, how to fight now?"
The vanguard of the Han army's reinforcements has arrived in the eastern part of Jincheng County, and just hearing that Zhao Chongguo is in command is enough to make the Qiang Hao's hearts beat drums.Zhao Chongguo was famous in the first war of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, when he was famous for his courage and sharpness, and he was also ordered to come to Hehuang many times to deal with Qiang affairs, and almost all the tribes were visited, and he knew the Qiang people very well.Yunwu City has been unable to attack for a long time, and such an opponent has come, which is really worse.As another strong attack failed, there were some casualties in all the departments, and some Zhonghao and Xiaohao, who were feuded and imprisoned in Qiang, began to complain in private: "In fact, there is no need to rebel, there is nothing wrong with the rule of the Han county, we can now drink better wine, use horses, cattle and sheep, and even the Qiang people of other tribes to exchange food and farm tools with the Han people, and do not have to rely on killing to survive as before." ”"Yes, now that Zhao Chongguo has arrived with the Han soldiers, even if Lingqiang retreats, he can still go back to the big and small elm valleys outside Jincheng County, what should we do?"
Their conversation was overheard by Yang Yu, and he drew his sword on the spot and killed the Zhonghao who took the lead in shaking the hearts of the army, and looked at the prison sisters and the feudal lords."
Is it okay to be ruled by Han officials?"
Yang Yu gritted his teeth and said: "More than thirty years ago, when I followed my father to raise an army, it was the same as today, first to resolve the grudge with the tribes, make an alliance, attack Lingju, and confront the Han people. ”"Since then, the once huge Xianlingqiang has been torn apart, and the nobles who surrendered to the Han officials have been forced to give up their land and river valleys, and migrate to the barren mountains with their people.""
Qiang men have to serve the Han people, bend down to carry wood on weekdays, and attack the Xiongnu for them in wartime.The women became concubines and were oppressed by the arrogant officials.In addition to drinking a few more sips of wine made by the Han people and promising some silk silk that is not useful, what other benefits did you get?
”"The land of the ancestors is gone, the pastures are getting smaller and smaller, and the best cattle and sheep are being enshrined.The Han people built earthen cities, occupied flat land, our migration was restricted, the Qiang and Han people clashed, and the government always helped the Han people. ”"I didn't see the Qiang people of Hehuang living a better life, I only saw that they lived less and less like a Qiang people, not like the descendants of Wuyi Sword."
Yang Yu fought this battle after careful consideration: "More than 20 years ago, I took the Han name Yang Yu, lived in the city of the Han people, lived with them for a few years, and knew their thoughts. ”"I have heard that the land of the Han is very large, the size of a hundred rivers, but it is not enough to satisfy the greed of the Han people, who prefer to come to this narrow valley and compete with us for every inch of land suitable for sowing seeds.""
Our ancestors are called Wu Yi Sword, and Wu Yi is a slave!
I told you what the Han people wanted, they wanted to take away every valley of our river, and turn all the Qiang people into vassals and concubines who built walls for them and planted wheat.We must launch a counter-offensive, or wait until the next generation, and our descendants will either be shackled and lose their freedom, or they will be driven far away, unable to hold even the sea of fresh water. ”"Therefore, this battle is about every child of the god Pole, about every descendant of the Swordless Sword, and it is by no means a matter of the first zero family."
Yang Yu's words stabilized the crumbling military heart, and Zhuqiang pressed down on the mind of surrender, not to mention that when the Heguan was breached, all the tribes participated in looting and killing, killing the Han people, just like the Han people let the Xiaoyue clan kill all the people who fried Gongqiang.But what to do now, Yunwu City can't be defeated, the army is exhausted of food, and the injured horses, cattle and sheep have also been killed, Ren Hong on the other side is eyeing the tiger, and Zhao Chongguo's vanguard has appeared a hundred miles away.Yang Yu did not forget how the Qiang people were defeated in the first war: the siege order was overwhelmed, and was defeated by the Han reinforcements who arrived.He doesn't make the same mistake twice."
It's time to withdraw, the blood of the Qiang people has been shed enough, and before Zhao Chongguo arrives, the troops will retreat to the mountains."
The war has entered the next stage, no longer a siege of cities and a head-to-head duel, but the Qiang people occupy the deep mountains and valleys and begin to play hide and seek with the Han people who are advancing with large soldiers."
When the Han people enter the valley, they go up the mountain, and when the Han people go up the mountain, they drill into the forest, and if they dare to follow them into the forest, they will definitely suffer a lot.""
Let Jincheng County become a rotten sore, there is no way to cure it, we will feed the horses in the summer pasture, in the autumn and winter, the Han people will not be able to hold it first, Xiqiang has done what should be done, attracted the Han army in Chang'an, and dragged them here, next, it depends on the Huns!"
The Qiang people just retreated from the front foot, Zhao Chongguo brought 10,000 troops from Chang'an, and the back foot arrived at the Yellow River, Zhao Chongguo has always been cautious with his soldiers, he was afraid of being intercepted by the enemy halfway, and sent three schools of men and horses to cross the river silently first, and after crossing the river, he set up camp on the bank, and at dawn, everything was ready, and then he received the large army on the shore.The scouts of the Qiang people were far away with dozens of hundreds of horsemen, and they were tested by the Han army, and the son of the commander of the Che Duwei and Zhao Chongguo, the captain Zhao Wei, asked to attack, but was rejected by the old general."
Capture to annihilate the period, small profits are not greedy, this is most likely sent by the first zero tyrants, want to lure our army to deviate from the direction, just drive back, and the army will rush to Yunwu City to relieve the siege first."
When they arrived at the edge of Yunwu City, there was still a mess outside the city, the Qiang people's tents were not dismantled, the city gate slowly opened, Hao Xingci walked out, and worshiped in front of Zhao Chongguo's horse."
Yunwu Lonely City holds on to half a moon, but fortunately, Weng Sun has come to save Jincheng!"
Zhao Chongguo didn't smile, just looked at Hao Xingci, and after a long time, he got off the horse and helped him up, and said softly: "Shaogong, Shaogong, why is this?"
”What's the matter, these four words made Hao Xingci's heart beat a drum, in the past six months, Xin Wuxian has repeatedly said that the Qiang people want to rebel, but Hao Xingci thinks no.As a result, the Qiang rebellion was ferocious, even if Jincheng County had expected it, but it still made the Qiang people break through Baishi and Heguan, and Yunwu was also in danger.Fortunately, Zhao Chongguo, who pacified the chaos this time, is an old friend of Haoxingci and will not put him to death, and Haoxingci is already thinking about who to give the responsibility to.Xin Wuxian is definitely going to divide, this guy is fighting west with the main force of the county soldiers with his head down, and there has been no news so far, it is best to wipe out the whole army, so that the responsibility can be blamed on him.As for Ren Huqiang on the other side, Haoxingci sent someone to report the emergency half a month ago and asked Ren Hong to rush to the aid of Heguan, but Ren Hong refused.That's not enough, after all, it was said that Ren Hong would defend the back of Jincheng before, and he did repel a Qiang army that wanted to go south.But recently, the Qiang people besieged Yunwu, and Ren Hong led his troops to the north bank of Huangshui, but he learned from the princes in the battle of Julu, and watched from the wall, and only occasionally launched a night attack on the Qiang people to scare and scare.However, when Ren Hong crossed the Huangshui to meet Zhao Chongguo, Hao Xingci no longer dared to give birth to the idea of sharing responsibility with Ren Hong.Because Ren Hong was carried over!"
Xi'an Hou, you are" Jin Xian was very surprised, he remembered that the emperor had entrusted him, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.But seeing that Ren Hong was carried on a stretcher by Han Dangdang and You Panda, his lips were white, his face was even a little blue, and he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but he still stood up strongly, and said to Zhao Chongguo and Jin Xian: "General Hou, Jin Fengche, Hong Bucai, I was injured in the battle of Haomen Shui half a month ago, I'm afraid I can't make a big salute." ”Sima Zhang Yaoli, the captain of the Qiang Protector on the side, testified for him: "The Marquis of Xi'an took the lead, boosted morale, fought bravely to kill the enemy, defeated 3,000 Qiang soldiers with 500 cavalry on the glacier, but was attacked by the hidden arrows of the Qiang captives, although he was seriously wounded, but the prince did not want to shake the morale, so that we could not make a noise, and forced to go south."
said that he couldn't sit back and watch Yoongo leave it alone, but his wound broke and he held on until now" "It's not as serious as he said. ”Ren Hong said with a smile: "The soldiers are not slightly injured and do not get off the front, my little skin injury is nothing." ”It's really not serious, Ren Hong's injuries are almost better, and he is not infected.But he understands very well that in front of the enemy, he wants to learn from Liu Ji in Xingyang City, pretending to be unscathed, talking and laughing.But in front of the officials sent by the imperial court to deal with the aftermath and hold them accountable, the more serious the better, and it is best to be seriously injured and almost die!"
That's a good saying, scars are military medals!
Just as he was talking to everyone, Ren Hong frowned again, his expression was very painful, and he looked like he was holding on, for the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of victory!
For a while, from the golden reward to Zhao Wei, everyone was very moved, and even Zhao Chongguo remembered the more than 20 injuries he suffered during the battle of Tianshan more than 20 years ago.Zhao Chongguo glanced at the silent Hao Xingci, in this way, the two counties of Jincheng County were broken, and the county government was besieged for half a month, even if it was only because of this injury, it could not be blamed on Ren Hong's head.The general didn't ask Ren Hong more, but only asked him to lie back: "Since the old man is here, Daoyuan doesn't need to be hard, just heal the injury first." ”"No, General Zhao galloped to Jincheng, Qiang Rong Xiaoyi, against the sky, and perished soon!
Ahem. ”Ren Hong coughed there several times, half-truths and half-truths were very hard, as if he was about to do his best, and after taking a breath, he said: "It's just that there is an important military situation related to the safety of Hexi and the Western Regions, and Hong wants to report it to General Zhao!"
