In the next two days, Han Sui stayed at the camp tightly, not interested in fighting, and turned all his attention to Chang'an. Through Cheng Gongying who guarded Chang'an, Han Sui got more and more information about the rebellion, and his restless heart gradually calmed down.
Among the people who participated in the rebellion, Ma Yu was probably the most important and the most active person. He jumped up and down, connecting the inside and outside. Ma Yu was a descendant of Taiwei Ma Rixi and a personal follower of the emperor.
In the shi dynasty, he himself was also a famous figure in the third auxiliary. Although he had some weight, he could not be called a big shot. At least at his level, he was not yet in the eyes of Han Sui.
The rebels seem to only flow in a circle headed by Ma Yu and Li Zhen, and have no tendency to spread outwards. It seems that they are afraid that others will talk too much and leak Lu secrets. They think they are doing it without anyone noticing, but they don't know them.
Every move made by Han Sui was seen by Han Sui. Moreover, due to the limitations of his circle, his power was bound to be greatly restricted. There were no people who even made Han Sui feel threatened, so Han Sui could order them to be eradicated anytime and anywhere.
Extremely calm and without any scruples.
Han Sui temporarily calmed down and turned his attention back to the battlefield. For three consecutive days, his side could not escape, which made the Gai army even more aggressive. They came to the camp every day to curse and fight. During this period, they made obscene remarks and were laughing and angry.
The scolding was all over the place. The officers and soldiers of the Korean army saw it in their eyes and heard it in their ears, and they were all indignant. Han Sui felt that his morale could be used, so he gathered his generals and ordered a battle tomorrow...
Han Sui's command tent was set up in a luxurious restaurant in the eastern suburbs. After the meeting, all the coalition generals came downstairs one after another, mounted their horses and left. Dong Yue and Niu Fu were at the end. They were speechless all the way and started to kiss each other.
Wei took the mount from there and rode along the road.
A few days ago, the two of them received orders from Han Sui and returned to Chang'an from their respective stations. At that time, Dong Yue and Gai's army fought bloody battles on the banks of the Bashui River. There were no more than 10,000 people under their command. Although Niu Fu did not fight a battle with Gai's army, he was
Don't send Li Jue to attack Yaoguan. The troops currently at hand are not even as good as Dong Yue's.
With less than 20,000 troops, this is the entire strength of Dong Jun. It is unbelievable to say that Dong Jun, who once dominated Guanzhong with 100,000 troops, is now reduced to such a state. It is really surprising. As a result, Dong Yue
He and Niu Fu no longer fight each other, and are unable to fight each other.
Niu Fu used his whip to chop the ground, and said angrily: "Little Li Jue, little Li Jue... I am the most shameless person in the world. I wish I could eat his flesh and drink his blood." At that time, Wang Yunyu killed everyone in Liangzhou.
Everyone was fearful and talked about returning to the north. Li Jue alone said to march westward and persuaded Niu Fu. Now, now... this guy swept away thousands of his troops and surrendered alone. Niu Fu was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"..." Dong Yue glanced sideways at Niu Fu. Originally, the two of them were looking forward to Li Jue. With Gai Yin Guan in hand, they would have a certain amount of capital. By then, neither Han Sui nor Gai Jun would be able to do anything.
He dared to ignore them. At the end of the day, he followed Li Meng's example and offered the pass to Yuan Shu to find a way out for himself. He never expected that Li Jue did not miss his old feelings, left everyone, offered the pass and returned to Heshuo. This move could really cost lives.
In this way, they completely transformed from allies into the sword in Han Sui's hand. Han Sui swung it and collided with the Gai army's iron ax. One day, it would break into pieces.
Niu Fu was angry and said worriedly: "What will happen if we fight tomorrow?"
"..." Dong Yue couldn't answer, and the two looked at each other and sighed.
Han Sui was very guarded against Dong Jun. Not only were the two generals Dong Yue and Niu Fu not in the same place, but their subordinates were also divided into pieces and could not be connected. When they reached the middle of the road, the two men sighed again and parted ways, each going his own way.
station.
…
Zhang Liao waited hard for three days, and the battle was finally about to begin. He was very happy. He got up before dawn. His sleep time was only two and a half hours. Not only did Zhang Liao not feel tired, but he had enough energy and felt that he could fight.
A dead tiger is wearing armor and walking out of the big tent. At this moment, he is no longer in the main tent of the Hussar General. The day before yesterday, Gai Jun took him as the Yulin Zhonglang General, specially awarded the Dang Kou Zhonglang General, and temporarily took charge of a unit.
Qianqi, so Zhang Liao had his own station.
"Zhonglang..." The guards standing outside the tent saluted one after another when they saw Zhang Liao coming out. These people were all those who broke through the siege with Zhang Liao in the bloody battle, about twenty of them.
Zhang Liao gave a soft "hmm" and looked up. In the dim field of vision, he seemed to see smoke rising from the kitchen, looming, and it was almost meal time. Gai Jun clearly stipulated that before the war, as long as conditions permit, the food for the soldiers must taste meaty.
, the cabinet servants started killing cattle and sheep since late at night, put them into the big pot, and stewed them for several hours. The aroma of meat was so strong that even though they were far away, it drifted into Zhang Liao's nostrils with the breeze, making it so delicious.
People can't help but eat and salivate...
One of the bodyguards said: "I was waiting for a while to call Zhonglang, but I didn't expect Zhonglang to wake up on his own..."
Zhang Liao nodded, and not long after, the drums sounded. The sleeping soldiers of the Gai Army hurriedly got up when they heard the drums, and scrambled for clothes and boots in a daze. In the midst of the noise, after finishing dressing, they rushed out of the tent and found their respective queues.
.
Zhang Liao stood with his hands behind his hands, nodding in his mind. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the speed of the soldiers gathering, all the armies in the world can only follow He Shuo to eat ashes. This is still a cavalry, if it were replaced by infantry, the speed might be faster.
.
Zhang Liao's troops were mainly from the northern counties of Bingzhou, and many of them were from Yanmen Township. For Gai Jun's good intentions, Zhang Liao not only expressed his gratitude, but also thanked him. This was the only thing he could do at the time.
He secretly swore in his heart that even if he risked his life, he would win a meritorious service on the battlefield in order to repay the Hussars General's love.
The soldiers were in an orderly manner, with teams as units, sitting in a circle, eating wheat rice and drinking meat soup. Some veterans who were accustomed to fighting could even drink a glass of wine to wake up and calm down the new recruits gathered around them.
The eggs are so greedy that their eyes are scarlet. Veterans not only play an important role on the battlefield, but also play a role in life that cannot be underestimated. For example, during meals, they may talk about their past experiences, tell some embarrassing things, or even tell some dirty jokes, which greatly relieves everyone's anxiety.
Tensions and bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time, and continued to radiate to the surroundings. Soon, the entire camp was in a relatively relaxed atmosphere.
Zhang Liao was not in a hurry to eat, but went around with his personal guards to comfort the soldiers. Everywhere he passed, the soldiers stood up and saluted, with a touch of admiration in their eyes. Zhang Liao is only twenty-four years old this year.
However, he has been famous for a long time. At the age of eighteen, he served as Cao Yu, a thief in Yanmen County. In just one year, he led the county soldiers to defeat dozens of horse thieves, bandits and barbarians, and became a famous young warrior in northern Xinjiang. At the age of 19, he became
The officials of Bingzhou attacked Heishan in the east, slaughtered various people in the west, and beheaded bandits many times. Chief Hu, with his weak crown, had already prospered in the capital. To the people of Bingzhou, especially the people from the north of Bingzhou, Zhang Liao was theirs.
"The white horse Pang Lingming", so after hearing his leadership, he was happy to serve even to the death.
Zhang Liao endured hunger and walked around the camp until the soldiers finished eating, then he and his bodyguards ate some meat to fill their stomachs.
At that time, it was still dark.
"Dong-dong-dong-dong-" After a long while, the slow and heavy drum beat one after another, sweeping across the entire camp in an instant. The relaxed atmosphere before and after meals was swept away and replaced by
What's more, solemn, boundless solemnity... The soldiers began to prepare their armor and weapons silently. Some were thinking about their fate, some were looking forward to military achievements, some were looking forward to victory and going home soon, some were used to life and death, and had no worries, no matter what.
Regardless of their attitude, they were all waiting for orders from their superiors, and then headed straight to the battlefield to engage in a brutal fight with the enemy that was either your death or mine.
The west gate of the Gaijun camp was closest to the battlefield, but at this time it was tightly closed and did not open. Instead, the gates on the north and south wings were quietly opened. Groups of Han and Qiang knights with either fine or crude equipment came out of the camp in a steady stream.
gush out.
When the north and south gates each rode out about 5,000 horses and spread out on both sides of the battlefield, the west gate suddenly opened, and shouts came one after another in an instant, which had both the style of the northern transfer and the charm of China. Tens of thousands of civilians and people moved in accordance with the slogans.
, struggling to push the large war equipment, and slowly walked out to the battlefield. Armored infantry holding halberds filled both sides to protect them. Thousands of soldiers followed closely behind the civilians, marching with slightly awkward steps.
.
Large war equipment is placed a few miles west of the camp. The carts are covered with wooden boards and covered with cowhide. They are connected to each other and stacked three layers behind. There are crossbows in the middle. They stretch for several miles from south to north, forming the first line of the army.
From a distance, it is very spectacular. The infantry is closely behind the chariot, forming a dense array. The first row is equipped with spears and halberds, and the second row is equipped with bows and crossbows. The subsequent soldiers fill in, causing the formation to expand, and finally form a formation with no end or end visible, and it is difficult to see both ends.
The black ocean, with hunting aura, soared straight into the sky, as if it had substance. Twenty-six thousand infantry were arrayed, and there were more than eight thousand cavalry on each of its left and right wings. Like a tiger, grab the wings and let it fly.
Obliquely above the right wing of Gai's army headquarters, that is, to the northwest, Gai and Yin's troops have more than 16,000 infantry and cavalry, a step slower than the main troops and horses, and are ready. On the opposite side, Han and Dong's coalition forces have more than 50,000 infantry and cavalry, similarly deployed.
Formation, ready to go.
Gai Jun wore bright armor and rode out of the camp, followed by civil and military personnel. Although Gai Jun's eyes were looking at the battlefield, his eyes were slightly scattered. Obviously, his attention was not on the battlefield in front of him, but quietly.
Lost in thoughts...
Late yesterday night, the scouts in the north captured a person. When the person was questioned, he refused to say a word. He only said that he wanted to meet the hussar general. If there is a delay, you can't afford to suffer. There is something fishy, and the scouts don't dare to do it without permission.
The decision was immediately reported to the superior, and through layers of notifications, it reached the ears of his personal attendant Gai Heng. The latter woke up Gai Jun from his sleep without thinking. After hearing this, Gai Jun immediately summoned the visitor. After meeting him,
With his qi-nurturing skills, he couldn't help but be surprised. He recognized that the person coming was none other than Liang Xiang, a direct disciple of his teacher Ma Rixi and a sibling with him.
Liang Xiang, courtesy name Bofu, was born in Youfufeng. The Fufeng Liang family was not as good as the Anding Liang family, the world's top lord, but they were not unknown. There were many figures in their ancestors. Among the Youfufeng gentry, they ranked middle to lower.
I know that Youfufeng is the place where the three auxiliaries are located. It is a place where traditional nobles and sects gather, such as Ma, Dou, and Geng.
Far less than that. Therefore, none of the nobles who can rank in Youfufeng are weak. Liang Xiang is thirty-seven years old and is six years older than Gai Jun. The two of them cannot have a deep friendship, but in the end they are
We are the same, and our feelings are beyond the comparison of ordinary friends.
Gai Jun hurriedly invited him to sit down, and with his mind racing, he immediately figured it out. He chatted a few words and asked why his elder brother was here. Sure enough, he heard Liang Xiang say that he and his comrades and friends had started an uprising in the city to help him capture Chang'an, the western capital.
Gai Jun learned that Ma Yu, Li Zhen and others were involved, and also recruited several generals. Liang Xiang sneaked out of the city from the secret place of Zhao who was guarding Yongmen. Only few people knew about this matter, and it was very hidden, unless there was someone inside.
Jian deliberately leaked the secret, otherwise Han Sui would never be able to find out, and his chances of success were extremely high.
Gai Jun was so happy that he couldn't control himself. He tried his best to calm down and asked for the time. Liang Xiangyan said that five days later, suddenly, he made a hunluan in the city and opened the city couch. He also couldn't fall asleep for a long time and didn't close his eyes all night.
.There was a big war today, and everyone was busy non-stop, but he had not yet informed all his close friends, both civil and military.
"There are still four days...Chang'an..." Gai Jun's eyes gradually became focused and he said silently in his heart.
"..." Jia Xu glanced at Gai Jun's back with his narrow eyes, and immediately turned to him. He is extremely sensitive and can detect people's hearts best. As soon as he met Gai Jun today, he immediately sensed that there was something on his mind. However, Jia Xu was very sensitive.
Xu really couldn't figure it out. Gai Jun was fine yesterday and his mood couldn't have suddenly changed. So, why was he disturbed...
Xun Yu, Xun You, uncle and nephew exchanged looks with each other, and they also noticed something strange about Gai Jun.
When Gai Jun was riding his horse, he suddenly turned his head. A ray of colorful light just pierced the morning mist and shone on his face. It seemed that the light flowed to his cheeks, adding a touch of look to him. Gai Jun saw the puzzled faces of the counselors,
There was doubt in his eyes, and he smiled thoughtfully. No matter how hard they tried, they still couldn't figure out what he was thinking. He would tell them in detail after the battle here.
Seeing Gai Jun's smile, all the counselors were confused.
"Dong-dong-dong-dong-" Suddenly bursts of thunderous war drums came from the distance, and then the drums sounded like lang and chao, hitting us.
When Gai Jun heard the sound of the drum, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Han Sui has been waiting for three days, but his courage has increased so much that he actually took the lead in attacking."
Guan Yu stroked his beautiful beard with his hand, looked proudly, and said eloquently: "Han Sui seems to have not learned his lesson, thinking that he can win by cultivating the strength of his soldiers? Don't you know that in the past few days of continuous fighting, our advantage has become increasingly obvious, Han Sui
If we don't shrink back the camp and show off our strength and fight again, we will definitely take advantage of the situation and make a huge defeat. Now we don't know our own strength and use the mantis' arm as a chariot, only to defeat the enemy."
"It doesn't matter if you don't overestimate your own capabilities, or if you use a mantis' arm as a chariot, the old thief has such determination, so why should he be afraid?" Gai Jun smiled coldly, raised his hand, and shouted: "Bang the drum... and fight..."
