Dong Zhuo was very strong with his troops. He held Han Sui at bay for more than half a year with only 30,000 troops and the Fufeng Yong camp on the right. However, Han Sui finally had 100,000 troops. Dong Zhuo had been struggling more and more recently, so he wanted to retreat, not wanting Han Sui to do so.
One day, they suddenly withdrew. Dong Zhuo was slightly surprised. Soon he learned that Zhao Qi, the prefect of Dunhuang, had sent 30,000 troops from the four counties of Hexi and Lu Shuihu to raid Jincheng County, the rebels' home base, and defeated them in a battle. Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and hurriedly led his troops to pursue them.
Hanyang caught up with the rebels, fought with them, defeated them, and captured tens of thousands of people.
Han Sui's hometown Jincheng was raided, and Dong Zhuo was watching behind him. The situation was extremely dangerous. Not to mention others, even those within the rebel army believed that there was no way to recover. Just when the court ministers were happily waiting for news of Han Sui's defeat, Han Sui made another move.
With shocking means, he did not know how to make Lu Shuihu rebel on the battlefield, attacked the Hexi soldiers from two sides, and captured Zhao Qi, the governor of Dunhuang, and seven other officials worth more than 600 shi. Later, he set up an ambush, and Dong Zhuo, whose details were unknown, fell into the encirclement and was immediately killed.
After suffering a heavy loss, they were spared from fighting to the death. Nearly half of their troops and horses were lost, and they fled back to Youfufeng in embarrassment.
Han Sui won two battles in a row, and his own losses were not small. In addition, winter was approaching, and the soldiers were working hard. He listened to the kingdom's opinions and stopped the army to rest and recuperate for the coming year. The imperial court relaxed a little, but then became furious. In November, the Taiwei was dismissed.
Zhang Wen appointed Ma Rixi, the captain of the Shesheng Colonel, as the Taiwei.
On the day Ma Rixi was appointed as Taiwei, he immediately sent a letter to Gai Jun, intending to let him support the wind and lead the resistance against Han Sui. It was mid-November when Gai Jun received the letter. He was moved when he saw this intention.
Now, the teacher is now the head of the three princes in the dynasty and the Taiwei in charge of military affairs. He can completely ask the teacher to leave Yang Aruo and Ma Teng in Tuntian District. When Dong Zhuo comes to Beijing, he will own the two territories of Youfufeng and Beidi.
…
"Advance on Chang'an, occupy the land of Sanfu, gather the people in Guanzhong, and go east to fight for the world..." Gai Jun held the letter, his eyes flickering...
Gai Jun was about to reply to his teacher when he suddenly heard that one hundred thousand massacres had attacked Taiyuan and killed Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou. As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked. Although the governor was only six hundred officials, he was the leader of a state. Last year, Liangzhou
The governor Geng Bi died, and this year it was the turn of the Bingzhou governor Zhang Yi. After looking at the country for hundreds of years, such a bad thing has never happened. And the rebellion between Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju became more and more intense. They were no longer satisfied with You, Ji, and crossed the river.
Invading Qing and Xuzhou, the world was in chaos.
Yilang Geng Zhong suggested that Gai Jun should be sent to Bingzhou to quell the rebellion. Emperor Liu Hong asked Taiwei Ma Rixi and Henan Yin Gaixun, both of whom agreed. In December, he ordered Gai Jun, the prefect of the north, to be the envoy to the Xiongnu Zhonglang General.
Gai Jun couldn't help but burst out in his heart and cursed the country. He made all kinds of calculations and calculations, but in the end it was all in vain. His face was gloomy and uncertain, and he wrote a letter to his teacher Ma Rixi in private. He was worried about the overwhelming power of the massacre and the instability of the Huns. At the same time, he bluntly said that the North
After two years of farming, he was still unable to make ends meet and had no success. He was afraid of troubles after he left. In fact, these were all nonsense and lies. His true intention was to take away Gai Yin, Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu, Pang De, and Guan Yu.
He moved to Gaiguan and became the Northern Commander-in-Chief, replacing Guan Yu. No matter who was the Northern Governor, Yang Aruo and Ma Teng had the final say in the Tuntian area.
Gai Jun made up his mind that once the teacher rejected him, Xian Lingqiang would rebel...
At the end of the year, he ordered the Xiongnu Zhonglang General Gai Jun to defeat the bandit Zhonglang General Gai Yin, the Cavalry Captain Pang De, the Polu Colonel Huang Zhong, the Polu Colonel Zhang Xiu, and the Pinglu Colonel Gai Guan (formerly the Beidi Captain).
) Guan Yu, the captain of the imperial army, went to Bingzhou to quell the rebellion. He moved Ma Teng, the captain of the peasantry, to be the captain of the North, replacing Guan Yu. Yilang Wangyi was the new captain of the peasants, and he and Yang Feng, the captain of the Xiaoqi squadron, were in charge of the farming affairs.
Wang Yi, courtesy name Wen Du, was born in the Wang family, a wealthy family in the North. He was one of the most famous celebrities in the North and was well-known in Xizhou. He studied under the late Taiwei, Liu Kuan, the elder of Hongnong, and came from the same family as Fu Xie.
, both of them were good at both civil and military affairs, and were both famous in the world.
"If I appoint my nephew Ma Teng as the captain of the North, use the reputation of Wang Yi to suppress Yang Aruo, and then send a prefect to recruit a new group of officials, how much influence will I have left? The teacher is really merciless.
..." Gai Jun hummed while laughing. "Teacher, do you think this is enough? Haha, you never dreamed that in two years, two years later, the world will change drastically. What is mine will eventually be mine.
.”….
At the beginning of the first month of the fifth year of Zhongping (AD 188), Gai Jun was about to set off. This time he would take with him 20,000 elite cavalry, 30,000 war horses, and thousands of large and small chariots. He also wanted to have more, the better, but Han Sui was powerful,
If too many troops are taken away, if his old home is occupied, he will have no place to cry.
Gai Jun said goodbye to the officials in the north one by one, and then called Yang Aruo, who bluntly said that he was optimistic about the territory. Yang Aruo understood. Finally, he walked to his wife, held his second wife's hand and said, "I will take you over when things settle down over there."
Both Cai Wan and Bian Wei were well versed in history and had a high vision. They were not village women ignorant of world affairs. They could see the dangers in Bingzhou and couldn't even force a smile. Looking at their mother Bian Wei's bright, worried eyes, Gai
Yi pursed her lips tightly and secretly made up her mind to grow up quickly. The second son, Gaimu, who had just turned four years old, didn't understand this and just kept crying.
Gai Jun picked up Gai Mo and said softly: "Wei Nu, don't cry. Your brother can recite the "Book of Filial Piety" at the age of four. When I come back, you can recite it for me too, okay?"
Gaimo rubbed his eyes with his little hands, choked with sobs and nodded.
Gai Jun kissed the snow-white face of his second son, wiped away the tears on his face, rubbed the head of his eldest son Gai Yi, mounted his horse and left.
This peak faces the sky on both sides, as if cut by a knife, and is extremely steep. In front of the peak are three old pines, with intertwined roots growing equidistantly, and the crowns of the trees belonging to each other, which is really strange. Under one of the old pines, there is a man standing, he is about forty years old.
Wearing a yellow Taoist robe, with a high crown on his head, and holding a nine-section whip in his hand, the strong mountain wind made the broad robe rustle, making him look even more graceful. This man was dressed exactly like the great sage Zhang Jiao.
His surname is Guo Mingtai, a native of Taiyuan, Bingzhou. There was a Guo Tai in Taiyuan, named Lin Zong, who was one of the Eight Scholars. He was famous overseas, but he had been dead for nearly ten years. He was not the Guo Tai that people knew.
But it does not diminish Guo Tai's reputation. He is a direct disciple of the great virtuous master. Before the uprising, he purchased horses in Bingzhou and contacted believers. He did not want his fellow disciples Tang Zhou to betray Taiping Dao and exposed Zhang Jiao, so Taiping Dao was forced to revolt in advance.
As a result, Guo Tai was stranded in Bingzhou. When he gathered his followers to prepare to respond to his teacher, Taiping Road took a turn for the worse after the initial success. Guo Tai hesitated, and soon the news of Zhang Jiao's defeat came. He was suddenly struck by five thunders, and his heart was filled with regret, which he had felt all the time for four years.
Stop blaming yourself.
Guo Tai murmured to himself: "Teacher, I can't avenge you even though your enemy is in front of you. Will you blame me?" At the foot of the mountain, a large army was passing by. It came from the north, and its general was named Gai Jungai.
Ying, the life and death enemy of the Yellow Turbans.
"Daxian, it turns out that you are here, making it easy for me to find you." After pushing through the thorns, a man in his thirties came out and said. But he cursed in his heart: "Damn, the mountain road is so dangerous and there is almost no place to step. This is
The Taoist helper just likes to pretend to be gods and ghosts. Do you really think that you can sense heaven and humans? If you have this ability, why don't you see Zhang Jiao summoning heavenly soldiers and summoning him?"
"It's the captain..." Guo Tai looked back, his expression calm and indifferent.
"What kind of captain? Did the great sage deliberately disparage me?" The big man waved his hands proudly. This person is Yang Feng, the captain of Heishan who was awarded by the imperial court. His real name is Yang Feng. He was originally from Hongnong, Sili.
The surname is Hongnong, a large family with a large population, and has nothing to do with the Hongnong Yang clan of the third generation and the third prince. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, people everywhere were dissatisfied with the imperial court and revolted in droves, especially in Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhaojun in Jizhou, Taiyuan in Bingzhou, and Shangzhou.
The party was under the jurisdiction of Hanoi, and there were dozens of leaders in the valleys east of the river, with millions of followers. The imperial court never wanted to make it difficult for Zhonglang to dominate Zhang Yan's family, so it promoted Yang Feng as a check and balance.
The imperial court's strategy was very successful. At present, it is difficult for Zhang Yan to reach out to Bingzhou and Sili, while Yang Feng is not strong enough to pose a threat to the imperial court. However, starting from last year, this situation has changed. Of course, this change is the result of the imperial court.
Those who didn't notice, or noticed and pretended to disappear. Tu Ge's rebellion caused a large number of people in Bingzhou to flee south, and the court was unable to support them. Yang Feng took advantage of him, and his strength increased sharply. Now he has formed an alliance with the Yellow Turbans,
Its meaning is self-evident....
Guo Tai turned around and continued to stare at the foot of the mountain, his eyes burning like a torch.
Yang Feng felt bored and came to Guo Tai in three steps. He smiled and said: "Tsk, tsk, he is indeed the best general in the world, Gai Shehu. He really has strong soldiers and horses. At that time, I heard that Gai Shehu was passing through.
I was so scared that I broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, I didn’t choose to start the uprising in the first month of the year. With only 20,000 people, we can be wiped out easily."
"What are you afraid of?" Guo Tai said expressionlessly, quoting Zuo Zhuan's words: "Anyone who commits unjust acts will be punished by his own death. I will treat him as such."
"Do many unjust things? I'm afraid Gai Shehu can't bear these four words." Yang Feng sneered in his heart. Guo Tai and Gai Jun had a deep hatred, and their evaluations were often biased. However, he had no hatred against Gai Jun, although he was
The rebels have different positions, but they admire him very much.
Yang Feng asked: "Daxian, when will the uprising occur?" It's not that he had to listen to Guo Tai. The two were allies rather than subordinates, but after all, he was the Heishan captain appointed by the imperial court, and it would be better if Guo Tai came forward.
, he hides behind his back and enjoys his achievements.
Guo Tai hated Gai Jun to the core and had to admit that he was unstoppable. He took a deep breath and said, "Twenty days later."
Yang Feng nodded in agreement. Twenty days later, Gai Jun would have traveled at least a thousand miles, and there was no possibility of turning around.
As the mountain wind became stronger, Yang Feng shivered violently, secretly cursing that this was really no place for people to stay, and said, "It's too cold at the top of the mountain, Da Xian, will you come down the mountain with me?".
Guo Tai shook his head and said, "You go first, I want to communicate with the teacher."
"Mysterious" Yang Feng snorted and turned around to go down the mountain. The mountain road was slippery. Yang Feng didn't pay attention. He fell to the ground and rolled several feet down the slope. He was blocked by an old tree. He rubbed his scratched arm. He was suspicious.
Looking around, he thought to himself: "Mom, it seems like there are some things that are better left unsaid." He spit out thick phlegm and carefully went down the mountain.
