The Han army won a complete victory in this battle. At the cost of 3,000 casualties, more than 7,000 of the enemy were killed and 12,000 were captured. Of course, those who were seriously injured were included in the beheading. It would be impossible for those people to survive in this ice and snow.
through tomorrow.
Knowing that ninety-nine percent of the prisoners were Youfu Feng Qiang Hu, Gai Jun laughed angrily. The old grudge of robbing the wedding convoy and killing the Gai clan members a few years ago had not yet been settled, and he added a new grudge of Ta Yun, so he simply paid it back together.
He ordered all Qiang and Hu to be killed and buried alive.
Dong Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward to stop Gai Jun's reckless actions. These Qiang Hu were rare cavalry seedlings, how could he let him kill them. Zhou Shen was also jealous, and the two of them secretly decided to divide 10,000 people between them and leave them to Gai Jun.
If you have two thousand handsome men, let him do as he pleases.
Seeing the two people's expressions as if they would use their official positions to suppress you if they disagreed, Gai Jun nodded silently.
Two thousand Qiang and Hu men were stripped of their armor by the Han army and stood shivering in the snow. A gust of wind blew, and their thin clothes clung to their skin. The biting coldness. Compared with the fear in their hearts, this pain was nothing.
What. They heard that one of the three Han army chiefs wanted to kill them all. After some discussion, 10,000 people were selected. Unfortunately, they fell into the hands of the bloodthirsty Han people.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
A young and handsome Han officer came slowly surrounded by many guards. His eyes were colder than the weather at the moment, and his black and dirty face was filled with fear, "Is it him? He is the one who wants to kill.
Kill us? Why would he kill us?"
Gai Jun sat on the horse with his back as straight as a jade, looking down at the Qiang Hu from a high position, and slowly said: "My name is Gai Jun Gai Ying, maybe some of you have heard of my name..."
"Gai Shehu..."
"The long history of falling eagles..."
The Qiang and Hu people have lived in Han territory for a long time, and they often speak Chinese. When they heard the words, there was a commotion. Gai Jun can be said to be one of the most famous Han people among the Qiang and Hu people.
Gai Jun said in a calm tone: "Eight years ago, I went to Kyoto to study at the Imperial Academy, and I was intercepted and killed by you in Youfufeng..."
The Qiang and Hu people suddenly changed their expressions.
Gai Jun continued: "Five years ago, you targeted my wedding convoy again, and four tribesmen died fighting to protect the convoy..."
The Qiang and Hu people's faces turned pale.
"Not long ago, my mount that has been with me for almost twelve years also died in your hands... Do you think I should kill you?"
There is no way to survive! The eyes of the Qiang and Hus are full of despair.
The Han army raised their bows and raised their crossbows, aiming at the Qiang and Hu. They only waited for the general's order. Gai Jun fell silent. He just said that he would massacre all the Qiang and Hu. He was just talking out of anger. He had not yet reached that level of cruelty. His personal grudges had already been settled on the battlefield.
It's over. Since the Qiang and Hu chose to surrender, they shouldn't be killed. Dong Zhuo and Zhou Shen used this as an excuse to divide ten thousand people, which made him quite unhappy. If it weren't for me, would you have defeated the rebels so quickly? Don't tell me.
If you give me half, you should also give me five thousand?
The snow seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. After a long time, Gai Jun spoke again: "Now that the country has encountered changes, personal grudges can be put aside. I need two thousand brave and skilled warriors to charge into battle for me and make meritorious deeds."
The Qiang and Hu people were startled, looked at each other, and then were overjoyed. They shouted at the top of their lungs: "I am willing to fight to the death..." Some people looked excited, crying and shouting.
Gai Jun shook his head and said: "You have left a very bad impression on me. You have no bravery, no courage, and you are vulnerable. You are completely incomparable to the Hu brothers under my command, and are not even as good as the rebels. What do you think I want?
Use? Waste food?"
A small Qiang Hu leader slowly walked out of the crowd, knelt in front of Gai Jun, his forehead touched the ground and said: "As long as you give us hope of survival, we will be the sharpest spear in your hand..."
The Qiang and Hu people said in unison: "As long as you give us hope of survival, we will be the sharpest spear in your hand..."
"I hope you can remember the oath you swore."

After listening to the messenger's report, Zhang Wen knelt on his knees for a long time without responding, as if he had heard a joke that was not very funny. Was the Liangzhou rebels defeated? They were defeated by Dong Zhuo, Zhou Shen, Bao Hong, Gai Jun and others.
Defeated, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, abandoned their baggage, and fled to Liangzhou in embarrassment? Is this... the same Liangzhou rebels who faced off against the Han Dynasty's more than 100,000 elite men in memory and defeated them in a battle?
Jin Wu Yuan Pang shook his head and smiled and said: "At the beginning of last year, General Zhu was defeated, General Huangfu was blocked, and Yuzhou was in danger. Gaizhong Langdong left Zhiyuan Pass, defeated Bo Cai's army in the first battle, and defeated Peng Tuo's army in the second world war, turning the situation in Yuzhou around. Today.
We waited for more than 100,000 people to gather in Chang'an, but the long battle was fruitless. As soon as Gai Zhonglang arrived, the rebels fled. How should we evaluate Gai Ying? Invincible young man? A blessed general from heaven?" The old man was very happy and very pleased. His nephew
The son-in-law Cai Yong found is so satisfying...
"Both." Shi Zhao Qi, the chariot general, twisted his beard and said with a smile, his face flushed. Zhao Qi was an upright man. He was from Changling, Jingzhao. He married the daughter of Ma Rong's brother when he was young, but because Ma Rong's cousin had a wealthy family, he refused to marry him.
When they met, he didn't even care about Ma Rong, let alone Zhang Wen who spent money to buy Situ. The reason why he was appointed as his chief minister was because the rebels were attacking at the door of his home, and he wanted to do his little bit for his hometown. The Han army
After the new defeat, he once thought negatively that the Han generals were at odds with each other, had many conflicts, and had no hope of victory. Now, after the rain and the sky cleared, his mood suddenly became brighter.
The two oldest old men in the tent spoke one after another, and everyone spoke freely. Jingzhao Yin and Zhang Zedao said: "The rebels have retreated from Liangzhou, should we pursue them or not?"
Zhang Wen said in surprise: "How can we not pursue it? If we delay the crusade until next spring, it will inevitably affect the spring plowing in Liangzhou. The Central Plains has just returned to peace and it is the time to cultivate and recuperate. How can there be spare power to help Liangzhou?"
"No. Even though the rebels are defeated, their strength is still intact. Don't move lightly." Tao Qian, who joined the army, said. Tao Qian is seven feet tall. Although he is over fifty years old, he has clear outlines and good appearance.
You can vaguely see his handsome appearance when he was young. Tao Qian was not interested in studying when he was young. At the age of fourteen, he still led his children to roam the streets. The villagers said that his Ao play was too much and he was not a great person. Only Gan Gong of Tong County had a keen eye.
After Tao Qian studied pearls, he devoted himself to his studies, entered the Imperial Academy, promoted filial piety and integrity, and eventually became famous officials both inside and outside his positions. Both he and Sun Jian were recommended to Huangfu Song by Zhu Jun, and Sun Jian was considered to be from a humble family.
If not, there is nothing wrong with taking refuge with Zhang Wen, but it is different for him. No matter how dilapidated the Tao family is, it will be the Danyang family that immediately draws a clear line with Zhang Wen.
Zhang Wen disagreed and said: "Why did Gongzu say this? The fire is shining on the camp, and the sky is sending disasters and punishments. It is time to wipe out the rebels in one go."
Fu Xie sighed: "It's snowing a lot today! If we attack Liangzhou, will we be able to support them with food and grass?" Fu Xie was promoted by Huangfu Song as the prefect of Hanyang. Since all five counties in Liangzhou fell, he stayed in Chang'an.
Similar to him is Yang Yong, the governor of Liangzhou.
"How can we back down because the future is difficult and dangerous?" Zhang Wen has made up his mind. Huangfu Song pacified the Yellow Turbans and shocked the world, but he could do nothing to the Liangzhou rebels. If he succeeds, his reputation will be better than Huangfu Song's.
People no longer care about the actual fact of buying an official position.
He then ordered five troops including Zhou Shen, the general of the bandits, Sun Jian, the military officer, Yang Yong, the governor of Liangzhou, Fu Xie, the prefect of Hanyang, and Duan Xuan, the lieutenant of the rebel school, to move 50,000 troops westward along the Weishui River, march to Hanyang County, and wait for the opportunity to go to Longxi.
.
He ordered Polu General Dong Zhuo, Colonel Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding and others to send 30,000 troops up the Lishui River to attack the Qiang and Hu from Anding County. If they won, they would join forces with Zhou Shen and other troops to attack Jincheng County.
He ordered Yulin Zhonglang General Gai Jun, Chariot and Cavalry General Shi Zhaoqi, Bandit Colonel Gai Yin, and military officer Tao Qian and others to bring 20,000 troops to Beidi County via Zuo Fengyi to attack the Xianling Qiang.);.
