"Then he is a hero, but he is not immune to the dangers of bandits." [True Edict]

"Get up! Everyone get up and fight!" Wang Chang's face turned pale and he kicked over several soldiers who were lying on the ground picking up gold cakes. When he and Liang Xing finally summoned a group of men to greet them, they saw Meng

Da had already led his subordinates to closely guard their general Gaishun.

Years of guarding the border have made Geshun's temperament more calm. I don't know when, but the young man who was high-spirited now has a long beard, and the sharpness in his eyebrows is restrained. He has already arranged his formation at the front, and he seemed to catch a glimpse before the battle.

Liang Xing and Wang Chang came in a hurry, with anger hidden in their voices: "You are the most chaotic in the whole army. You will all be punished by me when you return!"

Liang Xing was a little unconvinced. Many people were robbing gold and silver. Why did he just say that his military discipline was not good? He relied on Gaishun's reliance on him, so he shifted the responsibility to Wang Chang: "General, the last general

I originally captured an enemy general and wanted to offer it to the general, but Wang Chang took advantage of me and killed him! The general argued with him, so it was delayed..."

Meng Da cast his eyes over curiously, looking calm like an outsider who had nothing to do with him.

"That's enough!" Gaishun saw that the enemy cavalry had turned around, and immediately stopped Liang Xing's sophistry. He knew Wang Chang's past misdeeds, and it was not like he had never done anything to steal people and take credit...

Wang Chang felt the contempt and disgust in Gaishun's eyes, and he felt a burst of anger in his heart, and then it was suddenly extinguished. It has been so long, and he is willing to be the first to attack in every battle and risk his life, but he can't get rid of it.

The stigma?

He held the hilt of the knife tightly, did not refute, and silently walked to the front of the thin military formation.

But Liang Xing seemed to want to retaliate against him. He walked to Wang Chang and said with a smile: "What a pity. Why are you so willing to kill the enemy? You may be like this in the rest of your life."

"What do you want to say?" Wang Chang slowly pulled out the knife. Although this front was organized in time by Geshun and Meng Da, it still had many weaknesses due to insufficient numbers. He stared closely for almost an instant.

The enemy rider, who was about to gallop forward on horseback, had his face as dark as water and did not even look at Liang Xing.

Liang Xing sneered, and slowly drew out his sword: "I mean, the person you bullied back then is now a 'general' in the country's mouth, and what about you? No matter how hard you climb, you will never climb up.

After all...who would offend a noble man for your sake? It would be General Gai's mercy if he didn't trample you to death. If it were me..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Chang already knew what he was going to say. Yes, Xu Huang was indeed in charge and had great fame. For someone like him who had offended Xu Huang, I don’t know how many people would take it out on him.

Wang Chang deserved all these things to please Xu Huang, but every time Wang Chang thought about it, besides being grateful to Gaishun for not doing so, he also felt more hesitant about his future.

How many people do you have to kill and how many injuries do you have to suffer before people change their view of you?

Wang Chang clenched the hilt of the knife in his hand and watched the enemy cavalry rushing towards him. He suddenly roared and charged forward!

Yan Xing was overjoyed when he saw that Zhang Ji, Gaishun and other troops were in disarray due to looting of baggage. He immediately ordered the remaining cavalry with Jiang Shi in an attempt to attack the enemy's formation and reverse the defeat.

Zhang Ji also realized that the situation was not good and began to urge his subordinates to mount their horses and fight. However, everyone was dazzled by the gold and silver. Even Zhang Ji issued military orders with little effect. There was no other way, so Zhang Ji had to

He made a strong promise and led hundreds of soldiers to ride forward to meet him. After all, he was a step too late for Gaishun. The military discipline of the Liangzhou soldiers was not as strict as Gaishun. By the time Gaishun had almost assembled his troops for defense,

At that time, Zhang Ji was still in chaos.

Yan Xing looked down on the group of short Yizhou people in front of him, and he was also quite afraid of Zhang Ji's powerful Liangzhou soldiers. Although he fought hard to kill the enemy, Yan Xing urged the cavalry to charge into the enemy formation temporarily formed by Geshun.

Not many results were achieved. On the contrary, after failing to completely break through the Geshun front at the beginning, Yan Xing knew that the assault had failed.

In addition, Han Sui had already led the Qiang-Hu coalition forces who had no intention of fighting, abandoned their armor and fled over the hillside. Without support, Yan Xing, who suffered heavy losses, had no choice but to give up this great opportunity.

They hurriedly took advantage of the night to sneak through the mountain roads, and finally caught up with Han Sui's team. There were only a dozen riders under his command. One after another, straggler Qiang people lost their horses and followed them.

In the mountains late at night, turning left and right without a guide who was familiar with the terrain, I quickly lost my way.

At this moment, the shouts of death behind me suddenly disappeared without knowing when. There were no pursuers in the thick night, and only the screams of people behind or in front of me could be heard falling from the cliff.

The sound blew up from the bottom of the valley with the cold wind. It sounded so miserable that it sent chills down the spine.

The panic-stricken military spirit of a prodigal dog finally calmed down with the quiet night. Han Sui remained silent and led everyone westward along the mountain road. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a bright moon appeared and disappeared in the clouds. Because he was worried about Zhang

Ji led his cavalry in pursuit, but Han Sui did not dare to order a fire, so he had to take advantage of the occasional moonlight to walk in the dark. He would stop and check every time he walked, and by walking in this way, he finally got out of the valley with great difficulty.

The terrain at the entrance of the valley was flat, and I didn’t know where it was. Everyone was hungry and thirsty, and they were too tired to walk, so they all stopped in unison. Han Sui then ordered the entire army to rest where they were, while sending people from nearby

The villagers gathered together to capture the villagers and lead the way.

During the break, Han Sui ordered his generals and tribal chiefs to count the troops. It turned out that the 20,000 people who had managed to gather when they fled from Yongxian County traveled a long distance. After a hard battle, there were only 7,8,000 or 23,000 people now.

Hundreds of horses, as well as food and baggage, had long been abandoned on the road as they thought they were cumbersome.

Han Sui leaned against a big tree. He recalled that he had invaded the northwest several times. Although they had their own victories and defeats, they had never suffered such a disastrous defeat. He still remembered that last year he led an army of 100,000 to encircle Jicheng, which frightened Huangfu Song and did not dare to lead him.

Soldiers engage in battle. Now I have trusted villains and been greedy. The elite Qiang Han soldiers that I have gathered over the years have disappeared in one go. Even if I can escape back to Jincheng in the future, these Qiang Hu will suffer a big loss and will gain nothing.

How could the tribe listen to his orders again?

In fact, he was already exhausted. He only wanted to escape back to Liangzhou and had no intention of fighting again. It would be best to hide in Jincheng forever and cede territory to his own country, just like Song Jian who huddled in Longxi and claimed to be the king of Han Dynasty. Now he has been defeated several times.

The result made Han Sui extremely regretful. The only person who could give him advice was Cheng Gongying, who was far away from him. He looked around and didn't know where to continue fleeing.

A leader of the Qiang tribe came over to ask for advice. He was disappointed when he saw that Han Sui, who had always been so resourceful and resourceful in the past, could not make up his mind. So a few people secretly gathered together and discussed, saying: "I only have one knife left in my hand now."

, a riding whip. When I was not born in such a mess, I thought that my ancestors had submitted to the Han Dynasty and received the snake button seal. Now Han Wenyue can no longer follow him. Although we will not sacrifice him to the enemy, we can no longer follow him.

Let’s go.”

"That's right!" King Xingguo Di said in a low voice. He glanced at Han Sui, who was resting on a tree in the distance, and then looked at King Baixiang Di who had just spoken: "Huangfu has never made mistakes when deploying his troops. Since we are waiting to enter Guanzhong

It's just a trap. If you go further, who knows what you will encounter! It's better to leave here and go back to your respective tribes to cultivate. I see that the Han Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger, so you and I should just send envoys to become ministers earlier. As long as we can do it every year

If we live in peace and harmony, what can we do if we are given more oxen and horses?"

Several people whispered that they were right, so they made a good discussion and began to lead the tribesmen secretly on the trail under the cover of night, and then fled into the valley.

Yan Xing was shot in the left shoulder by a stray arrow while charging, and the wound could not be bandaged. Although the pain was excruciating, his face was calm. He had not systematically studied the art of war, but he was also knowledgeable about people. Seeing that Han Sui was full of sorrow and had nowhere to vent, he came over.

He comforted him and said: "Back then, Meng Mingshi of the state of Qin was captured by the Jin army. He was later released, and he was able to reorganize the army and avenge his previous humiliation. Now, whether you want to save yourself or endure the humiliation and fight again, Duke Ming should cheer up.

OK."

Han Sui sighed, turned to look at the young man he admired most, and said with a wry smile: "Huangfu Song is still the same Huangfu Song, but I am not even as good as my former self." As he said that, he looked over Yan Xing's shoulders and looked straight at him.

Looking into the darkness behind the other party: "What's more, after going to Jieting, there is no doubt whether you can survive in Liangzhou, let alone other things?"

Yan Xingzheng was about to say more when he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his shoulder. He couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air, and then heard Han Sui say: "How many people left?"

"This..." Yan Xing's face became troubled and he didn't know what to say.

"It's good that you didn't stop them. It saved some kindness for each other." Han Sui seemed to have noticed the movement around him, but he was as calm as a piece of wood. If he went back to ten years ago, he would

If someone under his command escapes without authorization, he will definitely chase him and eradicate him as a warning to others.

But now he suddenly felt tired for some reason, just like a bird in the old forest or an old fox dying on a hill. Han Sui didn't want to think about it now. During the day, even though he had a similar number of enemies with Zhang Ji and others, he never thought about it.

Fight to the death.

Han Sui was really frightened.

Such an idea suddenly popped into Yan Xing's mind, which scared him to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat. He was highly promoted by Han Sui and had great faith in Han Sui. Now even the other party was discouraged. Apart from being disappointed, he was also very unwilling: "Ming Ming

Sir, they think they can escape pursuit by leaving the army, but they are really stupid! They have countless lives on their hands. As long as the tribe and their residence are still in Yongliang, how can the court let them go so easily? Those who escaped just now are just sporadic people.

Changli Qiang, who has always followed Duke Ming, is still here and ready to fight at any time!"

Han Sui seemed to be inspired by the other party's words, his eyes lit up like fireflies, and said: "You are right. They escaped without authorization. How could they not be trying to confuse the pursuers behind me? As long as they lure Zhang Ji away, Gaishun

, I can escape to the street pavilion later."

Most of his subordinates were composed of Changli Qiang, who were both capable and most loyal. Han Sui thought that as long as there were 5,000 men and they were cautious along the way, they would be enough to escort him to Liangzhou safely.

With hope, Han Sui seemed to have regained some of his former shrewdness: "No, we can't go to the street pavilion."

Yan Xing held back the faint pain in his shoulder and asked curiously: "Why is this?"

"According to the detective report that day, it was Zhang Ji and General Gaishun who besieged Chencang. Today they are chasing us here. It can be seen that Chencang must have been lost, and it is already in the hands of Huangfu Song." Han Sui was careful.

He thought about it and said: "Since Huangfu Song is willing to lure me deep into the territory and dispatch Zhang Ji, Gaishun and other troops to turn their forces inward, then Xu Rong from Beidi County should also be dispatched."

"Xu Rong?" Yan Xing thought of the imperial court's military deployment in the northwest. This man was stationed in Beidi County, northwest of Hanyang County. It borders Yongliang to the west, Bingzhou to the east, and Xianbei to the north. He has nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses under his command.

, and it is also very close to Jieting: "Bingzhou's military strength is weak, and Duan Yan alone is not enough to deter the Xianbei, Wuhuan and other tribes in the state. Xu Rong may not be able to mobilize to stop me if he wants to guard against Xianbei..."

"Zhang Ji and Gaishun withdrew their troops and returned to the army. Why did they ever worry about the gains and losses of Wudu and Hanyang? I think that since Huangfu Song wants to surround and kill me here, he will not be afraid of Xianbei's movements... Now we are waiting for the talents.

This is a major danger that should be eradicated as soon as possible. As long as I can't wait any longer, what do Xianbei have to worry about when they are fighting on their own?" Han Sui sighed. He looked at Yan Xing who was hesitant to speak and said, "I know what you are thinking, Huangfu.

Song could have mobilized Zhang Ji, Gaishun, and Xu Rong to fight me with a combined force of 50,000 to 60,000, but why would he take such a big risk?"

"Is it because he is steady with his troops?" The cold wind blew over Yan Xing's wound, and he twitched the corner of his mouth in pain. Also, the Qiang and Hu rebels came and went like the wind, and the two sides, with hundreds of thousands of people in total, would face each other for a long time.

Logistics brings a serious burden, and may even affect the war in Kanto. A quick victory at a very small cost in exchange for maximum benefits is Huangfu Song's real purpose.

"Xu Rong was originally stationed in Shangjun, Bingzhou. After he secretly moved westward, I should have been alert when he was stationed in Beidi County. He just made way for Anding County, allowing me to enter the third auxiliary army."

Han Sui did not answer Yan Xing's words. He carefully recalled the terrain and locations of Yongliang in his mind. After estimating the march route for a while, he raised his finger and pointed somewhere in the northwest:

"Now Huangfusong has been prepared for a long time. He must have sent an order to Xu Rong to send troops from the north to station in Anding. What's more, he has captured Jieting and cut off my way. So when we set off, we can no longer go to Jieting, but to go to Jieting.

Go north, take Anding County, enter Wuwei, and detour to Yuzhong."

"Going to the true north?" Yan Xing was immediately surprised when he saw Han Sui resolutely decided to give up the shortcut and choose a detour. Now the entire army's food, grass and baggage were abandoned on the road. Choosing a detour meant that there would be a large number of attrition.

There are not many horses left. How can we protect ourselves when we get to Liangzhou?
