Geng Bi is in his thirties this year, in his prime, and he is also at an age when he is eager to make achievements. His distant ancestor Geng Yan defected to Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu at the age of twenty-one, and became a general at the age of twenty-three. He conquered hundreds of counties in the world.
Six out of forty, more than 300 cities were destroyed, and there was no setback in a lifetime of battles. It was comparable to Han Xin in the early days of the country. Emperor Guangwu was the most wise king in ancient and modern times. After the country was stabilized, he took back the seal and ribbon of General Geng Yan because he did not want him to be Huaiyin.
The king and his ministers were able to live in peace and harmony. Except for Geng Yan, the Geng family included their father Geng Kuang, brother Geng Shu, nephew Geng Bing, and Geng Gong, all famous generals of the time, and they became the best in the world.
Geng Bi did not dare to compare with his ancestors, but he had the ambition of his ancestors and was good at talking about war. Every time he talked, he was eloquent and eloquent. No one in the government or the public could argue with him for a moment. Emperor Liu Hong was moved by his words and worshiped him as Liang.
The governor of the state ordered him to attack the Jincheng rebels.
Geng Bi had just arrived and had no intention of launching an army immediately. However, Fu Xie, the governor of Hanyang, and Gai Jun, the governor of the north, both recruited Qiang and barbarians. Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of refugees were stationed in the fields. The year was good and there was no need to worry about food and grass, so they mobilized.
Thoughts on sending troops
After the 25,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry, and 10,000 Hanyang Qiang and Hu cavalry from the six counties were assembled, they were about to set off just waiting for Cheng Qiu to come back. A few days later, when he saw Cheng Qiu returning with a sad face, Geng Bi secretly thought something was wrong and asked.
How much food and grass could be obtained? The former replied that it was fifty million and five stones. Geng Bi was furious. He had spent so much effort in exchange for fifty thousand stones of food. That day, he personally wrote to Gai Jun with fierce words, threatening two hundred thousand stones.
The promotion cannot be less. If there is further shirk, he will definitely join him. Today's governors have great power, but when it comes to impeachment, they rarely make mistakes.
Is Gai Jun afraid of him? He thought to himself: Why should I give you the land that I worked so hard to cultivate for free? I sent the messenger with another 30,000 shi of grain.
Geng Bi was so angry that he gritted his teeth and read a book from Gai Jun. Gai Jun wrote a letter to complain, saying that this was the first year of farming and he had only collected so much. He also said that if the extraction was too harsh, hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu might rebel and the consequences would be disastrous.
Yunyun
Gai Jun was determined to get into trouble with Geng Bi this time. No matter who wrote the letter, including teachers and fathers, he would spend the first year working in the fields. If there was no harvest, he would politely refuse, openly complaining, and secretly cry for poverty. Most of the autumn
They passed it by arguing with each other.
Geng Bi knew that the governor would be unable to move forward if he could not overwhelm the prefect, so he vowed to fight Gai Jun to the end. However, the situation in Liangzhou changed drastically at this time. The Jincheng rebels who had been very quiet suddenly struck first and went south to encircle Longxi County.
, it is said that after more than 100,000 people heard about it, Geng Bi suddenly looked as ugly as if he had eaten shit. Before he could find trouble with the rebels, the rebels actually came to his door. He immediately led an army of 40,000 Han and Hu soldiers to set off for Longxi.
Fu Xie is very pessimistic about this battle, Geng Bi is like Zhao Kuo, and Cheng Qiu is a greedy and shameless person. Under the leadership of these two people, the ferocious lion will degenerate into a weak sheep. Although he knows that there is little hope, he still
I couldn't help but advise: "Your Majesty has only been in power for a short period of time, and the people do not know how to educate them. The troops under his command come from all over the country. They are not trained and have no tacit understanding with each other. If you let them go to Longxi to fight the enemy in the field, there will be danger. It is better to be in Hanyang and wait for the Taiwei."
When the troops arrive, join forces to attack."
Geng Bi refused to listen, and Fu Xie secretly sighed. All the soldiers in Hanyang were taken away by Geng Bi. There were only a few hundred soldiers left in Ji County. He could only pray to God silently, hoping that the Han army would win, even if the chance was pitifully slim.
The Jincheng rebels numbering more than 100,000 are an exaggeration, but 100,000 is closer. Geng Bi gathered an army of 40,000,000 Han and Hu from six counties, which put too much pressure on Jincheng. After all, the two sides were only 800 miles apart.
The Han army rushed in, and the scattered Liangzhou army was bound to be in danger. Finally, they made up their minds to cut through the mess quickly and deal with Bian Zhang, Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou and others, and used their strength to subdue Song Jian, the bandit leader of Longxi, and consolidate them slightly.
The armies marched south to Longxi, using offense instead of defense. In fact, there was no attack. Li Xiangru, the prefect of Longxi, was known to many people in Jincheng, but few people knew that he and Han Sui were at the turn of the Eight Worships. As soon as the troops arrived, Li Xiangru immediately jumped in.
The arms of Jincheng rebels
"Brother..."
Looking at his sworn brother whom he had not seen for more than a year, he smiled bitterly and felt entangled in his heart. He wanted to get rid of the eunuch, but he asked Li Xiangru to bribe the eunuch to become the governor of Longxi. "Bo Yun is right, maybe I have really changed... But I just
I admit that what I have changed is my methods and means. My heart has not changed, and my ambition remains the same..."
Li Xiangru was in his forties, of medium height, with a large face and large ears. He was very handsome. Also coming to see Han Sui with him were two celebrities from Liangzhou who joined the group. They were from Hanyang Kingdom and Huang Yan from Longxi.
Wang Guo is in his forties, with a slightly chubby figure and a soft face. He looks like a rich man, and it is easy for people to like him. When he was young, Wang Guo was a Hanyang county official. He was promoted to be filial and honest, but failed. Later he resigned and taught at home, with hundreds of disciples.
, It is said that Huang Yan of Liangzhou is about the same age as the king. He is more than seven feet tall, has neat facial features, a beautiful beard, and has a smooth official career. He has been promoted to the prefect of Jiuquan. He can be said to be one of the most accomplished among the rebels. It is difficult for people to believe him.
Will rebel.
Huang Yan sighed with emotion: "Brother Han, we have been waiting for you for two whole years."
Wang Guo nodded with approval. Although Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou were only nominal leaders of Liangzhou, they still felt that their worth was too low to join the rebels. Moreover, the rebels had many internal forces and many contradictions. Liangzhou knew this.
The scholars are all waiting eagerly for a person worthy of their followers to take over the rebel army with dignity. The so-called wise people are the disasters caused by the Dang's imprisonment, the Hongdu School, the Yellow Turban Uprising and other events. They are completely desperate for the court and want to
Before the change, Yan Zhong from Hanyang said that Huangfu Song went south to the capital in the name of killing the eunuchs. After the change of dynasty, Zhang Xuan, the grandson of the famous minister Zhang Ba and Zhang Borao, persuaded the cavalry general Zhang Wen before he left the capital to kill the eunuchs and get rid of them.
There are many people like Zhongguan, who promote good people and bring peace to the world. Yuan Shao, He Yong, and Xu You can also be classified into this category, but they do it more secretly.
Han Sui stepped forward, took the two men's hands, and said with a smile: "With the help of these two great sages, Liangzhou will be settled."
The four of them chatted and laughed, and climbed onto Didao's high ambition city. Han Sui looked into the distance, his heart was excited, and he said slowly: "Are you sure?"
Huang Yan nodded, stroked his beard and said: "Deng Yan, who works in Liangzhou, is a disciple of Brother Wang. When the time comes, Geng will be killed. Cheng and Cheng will be ready to meet him."
Han Sui said with a smile: "If you can really defeat Geng Bi's army without a single blow, Brother Wang's merits are immeasurable."
Wang Guo had a kind face, waved his hands and said: "Brother Han, what you said is wrong. If the two of them are in conflict with each other, the people of Liangzhou will not be in peace. I am only doing harm to the people, so what is the merit? Besides, there is no such thing."
It’s not yet done, it’s too early to say anything.”
Han Sui gently patted the battlements with his palm, turned around and said, "If things go through, how about Brother Wang becoming the leader?"
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked, and their smiles froze on the surface. The kingdom's mind suddenly turned a few corners, and said with a serious face: "Brother Han is not testing Wang? Wang's wish is to kill eunuchs and help the country.
Other than that, there is nothing else to ask for.”
Han Sui smiled and stopped talking, his eyes were extremely deep.
On the way to Longxi, Geng Bi suddenly heard that the governor of Longxi, Li Xiangru, had surrendered and united with the thieves. At the same time, a rumor spread widely. Yunhan then killed Bian Zhang, Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou and others, annexed various forces, and became
The only leader among the Jincheng rebels
Geng Bi didn't pay much attention to this rumor. In his opinion, the only difference between whether there was one leader or ten was to chop off one head to reward merit or ten heads. If the rumor was true, it would save a lot of trouble.
After the Han army arrived in Longxi, they rushed into Didao without stopping.
"Are the rumors about Han Sui annexing the rebels true?"
"I don't think it's a lie"
"Then what should we do? Han Sui used his troops like a god. Last year, he defeated General Zhou Shen's five-pronged army and wiped out tens of thousands of people..."
"I saw it with my own eyes. It was like a river of blood."
"Compared to Han Sui, look at our own coach. Geng Shijun brags a lot on weekdays. He seems to be the only one in the world who knows how to use troops. Yesterday I saw him mounting a horse and using his trusted followers to support him."
"I come from a wealthy family in Youfufeng, so I am naturally used to being graceful."
"In the past, Generals Huangfu, General Zhang, and Duan Taiwei of Sanming in Liangzhou, and today's Generals Huangfusong, General Dong, and Gaibei, who did not share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers? Only such people can win the battle. A person needs support even when mounting a horse.
Man, do you believe he can use troops?"
Huang Zhong frowned. He had been hearing such words every day since the army set out. He was sure that there must be spies in the Han army. Only spies deliberately guiding public opinion would lead to such large-scale and continuous discussions.
It's a pity that his repeated requests to see Geng Bi were rejected. In Geng Bi's eyes, he was Gai Jun's man, so what was there to talk about? If he didn't rely on him to fight the war, he would have found trouble and fixed him long ago.
In the middle of the year, the Liangzhou Governor's Department recruited soldiers from six counties. Gai Jun thought that he would lose more than he won, so he wanted to just find someone from Simali. Unexpectedly, the five generals and lieutenants under his command all showed varying degrees of enthusiasm. His nephew Gai Yin
, Brother-in-law Yang Aruo will definitely not let him go. Guan Yu is the captain of the North and the leader of the Han army in a county. He should not be touched lightly. Ma Teng has a stain on his history. He is afraid that he will never come back and he will not be able to go. The final candidate will fall to
Huang Zhong fell into Gai Jun's body. Although Huang Zhong was not Gai Jun's direct descendant, he valued him very much and deliberately cultivated him into a direct descendant. He told him his thoughts and asked him to be more careful.
"If nothing else happens, we will be in contact with the enemy in two or three days. According to this situation...is it really as Gaibei said that it is impossible to escape the defeat?" Huang Zhong couldn't sleep at night, so he patrolled the army as usual.
Camp, walking, suddenly there was a slight trembling sound from the ground, Huang Zhong's expression suddenly changed, he followed Gai Jun for a long time, he knew very well what this meant, and then, the shouts of killing came from the camp,
The expression changes again, that is the position of Geng Bi Zhongjun
"Night attack... night attack..."
"Geng Shijun, Cheng Zhizhong has been killed, Geng Shijun, Cheng Zhizhong has been killed..."
Encountering a night attack by the enemy, the commander was killed again. The Han army camp fell into panic, with the soldiers running around and screaming like headless flies.
