The setting sun was like blood, shining slantly on the bloody grassland, adding a sense of poignancy. The Battle of Meiji ended with the 50,000-strong Han and Hungarian coalition forces defeating Tu and 60,000 Hungarian rebels. A total of 16,000 Hungarian rebels were beheaded in this battle.
level, and captured 15,000 enemies, most of whom were Huns. After all, Meiji was the place where they had lived for more than a hundred years, and they did not want to follow Bu Shanyu and go far away outside the Great Wall to live a poor life. On the Han and Huns sides, Gai Jun used the Huns
As the vanguard, the Han army suffered very little damage, while the Xiongnu suffered 20,000 casualties in battle.
After defeating the Hu rebels and weakening the Huns, Gai Jun was in a good mood. However, the death of Yu Fuluo, the Xian King of Zuo, made things a little troublesome. He did not expect Yu Fuluo to be so unlucky. It seemed that he was not Shan Yu's fate.
ah……
"Yufuluo is dead, will the new Shanyu be appointed Huchuquan?" Gai Jun turned his eyes to Huchuquan, who was lying on the body of his brother Yufuluo and was crying bitterly, and thought to himself: "Does this boy have any feelings for me?"
Do you have any resentment? Of course, Yu Fulo died indirectly at his own hands. Why not follow the example of Zhang Xiu, the Xiongnu Zhonglang general, and get rid of him directly, and select an obedient person from the four surnames of the Xiongnu?
As Shanyu..." Thinking of this, Gai Jun's eyes were slightly sinister, looking at Huchuquan as if he were looking at a corpse.
Huchuquan's body stiffened slightly, and he crawled in front of Geng Zhi's horse. He hugged Geng Zhi's legs and cried: "General, general, you must avenge my brother. I, Huchuquan, will never forget the general from generation to generation."
kindness……"
Geng Zhi was startled. Ever since the Han army crossed the Luliang Mountains, all battles had been commanded by Gai Jun. People who didn't know better thought that Gai Jun was the commander-in-chief of General Du Liao. Geng Zhi, the official commander, had become completely dispensable.
Man, what is the meaning of Huchuquan suddenly throwing itself at him? Geng Zhi looked at Gai Jun subconsciously, and soon figured it out, and comforted him calmly: "Don't worry, King Youxian, as long as you are loyal to the Han Dynasty, my servant will do it for you."
You decide."
"This guy has quick reactions." Gai Jun laughed angrily. Do you think it's enough to surrender to Geng Zhi? Huh?
Huchuquan was afraid that something might happen if it was too late, so he immediately summoned the nobles close to him in the clan to hold a dragon meeting. Then Geng Zhi, the general of the Liao Dynasty, had Gai Jun, the Xiongnu lieutenant general, as a witness to give his approval, and he made a formal alliance with all the nobles.
He took office as the Xiongnu Chanyu.
After Huchuquan became a Chanyu, he still showed great respect to Geng Zhi and Gai Jun. He said at the banquet: "The fake Chanyu Xubu killed my father, the Qiangqu Chanyu, and raised an army to cause chaos. This is an unforgivable crime. Many nobles in the clan are guilty of this."
Instead of colluding with each other, the current situation forces them to surrender. Who can guarantee that they will not surrender and rebel again in the future? Therefore, I want to kill them. General, what do Zhonglang think?"
Geng Zhi had nothing to do, so he turned to Gai Jun and asked, "What does the deputy commander think?"
"Absolutely not. Our country, the Han Dynasty, has always spread kindness and benevolence. Today, it is like killing the Xiongnu and surrendering, which is contrary to the situation. What's more, when the rebels see that they have no way to surrender, they will definitely have the intention of fighting to the death, and they will never return to the south in this life.
"How could Gai Jun let Huchuquan purge his dissidents and integrate the Huns? Wouldn't it be better if those people left Huchuquan as a constraint?
Although Geng Zhi was dissatisfied with Gai Jun, he also felt that what he said was reasonable. His general Du Liao ruled in the north of Meiji, in Wuyuan County, and was at the forefront. He naturally hoped that the rebels would collapse as soon as possible.
"But..." Huchuquan was unwilling to give up.
Gai Jun waved his hand and said: "That's it. Now let's discuss the issue of the Northern Expedition. First, we should capture Wuyuan Manbai and rebuild General Du Liao's camp. Then, should we restore the entire territory of Wuyuan to the west or go north to Yunzhong?" Wuyuan County
It is wide in the west and narrow in the east, and is pressed into a narrow line by the Xihe River in the south and the clouds in the north, so Gai Junnai had this question.
Geng Zhi pondered for a moment and said: "I think we should enter the clouds."
Gai Jun nodded, Yunzhong borders Dingxiang and Yanmen. Although the two counties cannot provide much troops, they should be able to provide two or three thousand cavalry, and the army can also feed the two counties on the spot, eliminating the need to transport food from afar.
Consumption.
After deciding on a plan, Gai Jun left the tent. On the next day, there was a rumor among the Huns that Huchuquan planned to eliminate the dissidents, but Gai Jun, the commander of the Huns' lieutenant general, refused... Everyone in the Huns was alienated and did not obey the Shan Yu's orders.
The army rested for a few days and set off. This time they mobilized 40,000 Han and Hungarian cavalry, and captured Manbai two days later. Geng Zhi simply repaired the city, and at the same time sent people east to Dingxiang and Yanmen. Ten days later, the cavalry from the two counties crossed the Great Wall and arrived.
meet.
All the armies merged and went north, sweeping across the Yunzhong Tuge, Xianbei, Zahu, Wuhuan, Xiongnu and other barbarians. Those who surrendered were well-organized and strengthened the army. If they did not surrender, they would fight until they surrendered. For a time, the sound was heard everywhere in the clouds.
The thundering sound of horse hooves.
----------------------------------
Han Sui entered Youfufeng three times, but neither Zhang Wen nor Dong Zhuo could control it. At the end of last year, Zhang Wen was dismissed from the post of Taiwei and transferred back to Kyoto. Dong Zhuo was promoted to former general, stationed in Youfufeng, and fully took over the affairs of Western Xinjiang. However, this was only a temporary expediency.
According to this plan, the imperial court would never let the military power fall into the hands of one person. In order to check and balance Dong Zhuo, Huangfu Song, who had been idle in Beijing for three years, was appointed General Zuo and took charge of Chang'an.
On the day Huangfu Song left Beijing, hundreds of officials headed by General He Jin came to see him off. Gai Xun, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others were among them.
Huangfu Song took Gai Xun's hand and said: "If Gai Xiaowei is the capital of Beijing and our prime minister's rear, why worry about Han Sui not defeating him?" Gai Xun has an upright temperament and hates evil as much as hatred.
He was transferred to the post of captain of the Yueqi School of the Northern Army before. The fifth school of the Northern Army was named a captain, but in fact he was already among the civil servants. His rank in the imperial class was quite high. Ma Rixi served as a shooter before he became a Taiwei.
The position of Lieutenant of Sound.
Gai Xun laughed loudly and said: "The general's words are also Gai's wish."
Huangfu Song sighed softly: "Your Majesty won't let go, what can I do?" After saying this, he said goodbye to his colleagues one by one.
Watching Huangfu Song board the car and drive away, Cao Cao's eyes were full of envy. He had been a mute councilor in Beijing for three years, and his bones were almost rotten. He wanted to follow Huangfu Song to Western Xinjiang, quell the rebellion, and be made a marquis and a general.
.Unfortunately, this is just an extravagant wish. My father, who had just spent 100 million yuan to become the chief lieutenant among the three princes, would not agree to it at first.
Cao Cao, who couldn't see the way forward, murmured to himself: "Do I, Cao Cao, have to live in such a muddle-headed life for the rest of my life?"
After Huangfu left, the crowd gradually dispersed. When they returned to the city, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Gai Xun walked side by side. During the chat, Yuan Shao suddenly asked: "Captain Gai, it is said that your Majesty intends to recruit soldiers from all over the country to the capital?"
Cao Cao's eyelids twitched, he had never heard of this at all.
Gai Xun nodded and said: "We are well-informed at first. The world is in chaos, but Guo Tai from Hedong and Zhang Yan from Heishan are heading south together, approaching the capital. Your Majesty really wants to recruit troops to the capital to scare Xiaoxiao. If nothing happens, it can be done within this year."
Yuan Shao remained silent, obviously it was not this matter that he wanted to know. Cao Cao was about to speak, but he quickly stopped after seeing this.
Gai Xun took a few steps away, glanced at Yuan Shao, and continued: "Your Majesty also intends to form a new army and name it after Xiyuan."
Cao Cao silently muttered the word "西园" and asked, "Does your Majesty intend to make the eunuch the handsome man?"
"Jian Shuo." Gai Xun whispered a name.
Yuan Shao frowned unnoticed and changed the subject: "Bingzhou was corrupted and the capital was in shock. Ziying was ordered to do so at the critical moment. He defeated the enemy and recovered four counties. He is really a good general that comes out of our Han Dynasty every hundred years."
Gai Xun disapproved and said: "How can the credit be attributed to him alone?"
Yuan Shao smiled and said: "Captain Gai treated Ziying too harshly. Ziying repeatedly wrote to me to complain..."
"If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them." Gai Xun sighed. Gai Jun is only twenty-seven this year. He is both civilized and military, and he is unruly. He lives in a chaotic world, and if he is allowed to act arbitrarily without restraint, he may be afraid of death.
It was not the blessing of the Han Dynasty. The Gai family in Dunhuang had been a Han official all his life, and he was deeply favored by the Han Dynasty. It would be better to polish Gai's handsome features, so as not to give birth to a bad son in the Gai family in the future.
After entering the city, the three of them said goodbye. When Yuan Shao returned home, a letter happened to arrive. He saw that the signature was Chen Yi, a fellow villager. Chen Yi was the only son of party leader Chen Fan. Yuan Shao walked into the hall, closed the door, sat on the mat and read it.
While reading the letter, I tapped the desk with my fingers, thoughtfully.
After sitting alone for two-quarters of an hour, the door was pushed open and Xu Youzai walked in leisurely.
"Come and take a look..." Yuan Shao handed the letter to him.
Xu You glanced at the ten lines. He was surprised at first, and then laughed and said: "It's a bit interesting..." The content of the letter was shocking, and it actually involved rebellion. Once it was leaked, countless people would be killed. As we all know, Emperor Liu Hong was ten years old.
At that time, he was transferred to the palace. His hometown was in the river of Jizhou. Recently, he wanted to return to his hometown to inspect the old house. Chen Yi and Zhou Jing planned to join forces with Wang Fen, the governor of Jizhou, to kidnap Liu Hong, kill the traitor and eunuch, and establish the Marquis of Hefei as the emperor. Hefei
The Hou State was originally a feudal state owned by the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, Jiantan. It lasted for four dynasties and nearly a hundred years. The country was eliminated and changed into a county. The later emperor Liu Hongli's younger brother was made the Marquis of Hefei.
Yuan Shao said calmly: "What do you think?"
Xu You shook his head and said: "The chance of success is very slim."
"Oh? Why?"
Xu You didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said: "My husband has been abolished, so it is a secret. He invites many heroes like him, and he talks too much. How can he keep a secret?"
Yuan Shao sighed slightly and said: "What a pity for this good opportunity."
Xu You chuckled and said: "Liu Hong will live a good life in just a few years, so why not endure it any longer?"
The sound of thumping footsteps came, and Cao Cao took off his shoes and came in, sweating profusely, holding a letter in his hand.
"Brother, Ziyuan..."
"Hey, Young Master Ah Man, have you also received a letter from Brother Chen?"
Cao Cao ignored Xu You's teasing, went straight to Yuan Shao, sat down, poured himself a glass of water, and then said with lingering fear: "My father is at home, and Brother Chen's letter was almost seen by him. Fortunately, I went back in time."
Yuan Shao asked: "Does Meng De think it is feasible?"
"Alas, you only bring trouble." Cao Cao sighed. "Those who abolish the establishment use extraordinary means, and the world is unknown. The reason why Yi and Huo succeeded is all because of Yi and Huo Huai's loyalty and sincerity. He held the position of prime minister and relied on his power.
The importance of the position is due to the wishes of everyone. Brother Chen, Brother Zhou, and Wang Shijun want to go against heaven..."
Xu You interrupted him with a smile: "Mengde, stop telling lies. You are tired of talking and I am tired of listening. Save your saliva."
Cao Cao glared at Xu You fiercely.
Yuan Shao said: "Let's put this matter aside."
Xu You stretched and said, "It's been very boring in Beijing recently. I'll go to Jizhou to see the excitement..."
