Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 754

Zhao Zaili was really unlucky, who would have imagined that there would be an old Wei Boya soldier in this small fort along the river.

To be precise, the old blind man and Zhao Zaili still had some disputes.

When Wei Bo Yabing rebelled against Li Cunxu in the past, Zhao Zaili wanted to run over the wall, but was discovered by the tooth general Huangfuhui, who grabbed his heels and tore him off the wall, forcing him to rebel together. The old blind man stood at Huangfu Hui's side.

The old blind man not only knew Zhao Zaili, but also the group of Wei Boya soldiers whom Zhao Zaili had cited as his confidantes.

Those Wei Bo silver guns who wanted to grab the customs and then burned down the Baimadu floating bridge were all left behind. Even if they were concealed, they were recognized by the old blind man in no time.

As the smoke rose from Yanhebao, dozens of Huazhou Central Guards guarding the Baimadu pontoon, under the command of the captain, immediately dragged all the prepared horses over, lit the smoke, and at the same time A large number of business travelers were evacuated at the ferry.

The transmission speed of the wolf smoke was very fast. In a quarter of an hour at most, the big bell at the center of the Huazhou Zhongwei Camp in the east of Huazhou City began to clang.

Kangjiabao (pu), which is the nearest village to Yanhebao, is also the most bullied village nearby.

Because this is not a village inhabited by the Kang family of the Han people, but a village inhabited by the Kang family of the Sogdian people, and it is somewhat related to Kang Fu, who was kind to Zhang Tie.

If a modern person saw this village at this time, he would be stunned.

Because in this village, most of the women who come and go are blond and blue-eyed big horses, but they wear very Chinese-style skirts and speak fluent Hua County dialect.

How should I say this outfit, it looks quite weird in later generations, but in the Tang Dynasty and even the Five Dynasties, it seems so appropriate.

At this moment, after seeing the smoke from Yanhe Fort, the elder of the Kang Family Fort and the patriarch of the Kang Clan immediately started beating a gong, and yelled, "Kill the thief!" ! Kill the thief!"

Hearing the sound of gongs and roaring, the young Kang family jumped out of their respective huts like wild boars, and many of them were still holding low-quality long guns and various agricultural tools in their hands.

After a while, the sound of horseshoes sounded, and several strong men from the Kang family with blond hair and high nose bridges ran over leading their horses, holding high-quality spears, bows and arrows in their hands.

The patriarch trembled all over, and grabbed the hands of the strongest man among them.

"My son, there is smoke in the Fort along the River. There must be thieves attacking Fort along the River. Our chance has come."

Don't get me wrong, this old man with the appearance of a barbarian is not trying to rebel, but he is keenly aware that the Kang family's opportunity has come.

Before that, Kangjiabao was quite bullied among the villages managed by Yanhebao Inspection Department.

Not to mention that they did not have a long march in Kangjiabao, and when they took turns to go to Yicong, they were always crowded by other villages.

They are often out of reach during the slack season, and it is always the Kang family who are taken away during the busy season.

The main reason why they were bullied so much was their appearance.

After I, Zhang Shengren, returned to the country, I held high the banner of the nation, and the status of the Han people rose sharply. It was inevitable that the status of the Hu people, or people with the appearance of the Hu people, began to decline, and the status fell very quickly.
This is inevitable, because there are quite a lot of Han people with suspicious ethnic backgrounds under Zhang Shengren, and in order to hedge against other people's doubts about their ethnic backgrounds, the best way is to elevate the status of Han people again.

Because the people from the Helong area have a huge advantage, that is, the Tubo, Qiang, Dangxiang, etc. are very similar to the Han people.

Therefore, after elevating the status of the Han people, they tried their best to promote the appearance and characteristics of the Han people, in order to form the atmosphere of determining a nation based on their appearance.

But in this way, these yellow-headed Sogdians who have been Sinicized long ago and speak Chinese more fluently than the people in the Helong area will be in bad luck.

And if you look deeper, this trend actually started after Li Keyong's rise.

Because Shatuo Zhuxie's family is also black-headed and white-skinned, there is not much difference in appearance from the Han people, and they also have the same needs of the Helong people today.

Therefore, in the Later Tang Dynasty, there were real Shatuo (referring to the Shatuo people with the appearance of Han people) and false Shatuo (referring to the yellow-headed Sogdian people from the Western Regions).

In such a climate, if the members of Kangjiabao want to stand up, there is only one way to go, and that is to have a few more Long Marchers in the fort, and even be selected into the Imperial Army and the Pro-Army. Time is not crowded by others.

Because the only thing that can erase the disadvantage of appearance in Zhang Zhouchao is military merit, and military merit means status.

After the status is improved, the surrounding Han-looking families will not resist marrying with their Kang family, so that after several generations, they will not be so conspicuous.

Now that Yanhe Fort was attacked by bandits, it was their best chance. The patriarch grabbed his son Kang Sanlang's hand and immediately began to give orders.

"Wulang, Liulang, Jiulang, and Shishilang are by Sanlang's side. You five have horses, so you must kill the thief very quickly.

The rest each held weapons and sticks and drove the culprits to Sanlang and the others. Even if the culprits were killed, they had to give their heads to Sanlang.

As long as Sanlang becomes the leader of Long March Jianyong, and even accumulates meritorious service and becomes an official in Huazhou Zhongwei, our Kang family will turn around. "

Kang Sanlang also bowed to the hundreds of family members around him, "Dear relatives, Kang Sanlang doesn't say too much, as long as a certain family has accumulated meritorious deeds, in the future, whoever produces a healthy and brave young man, a certain family will push him up like today , strengthen my Kang family."

Hearing that the old man and Kang Sanlang and his son had expressed their views in this way, the relatives also nodded in agreement one after another. They crossed their hands together, the old people, children, and healthy women all looked at Kang Sanlang.

"I would like to fight the enemy with Saburo. The future of the Kang family depends on Saburo!"

Amidst the roar, the patriarch took the old and weak women and children and began to run to the temple on the mountain, where they could barely hold on to avoid the thieves.

The rest followed Kang Sanlang's horse in a mighty manner, and went to Yanhebao to kill together.

And not only in Kangjiabao, but also in the entire township under the jurisdiction of Yanhebao, young adults continued to gather.

This is the advantage of equal land, everyone has constant production, and everyone has the desire to make contributions.

Except for them, all the inspection departments who saw the wolf smoke immediately began to mobilize their young men and soldiers.

The walls of Yanhe Fort were stained red with blood, and the people who came to attack were exactly 400 people recruited by Zhao Zaili and Liu Jixun, the two envoys of the Hebei Province of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Half of them are the trilogy controlled by the two, and the other half are the silver gun effects they solicited everywhere.

Before the decisive battle between Zhang Yu and Liu Zhiyuan in Hebei, a large number of Weizhou dental soldiers, who were also the remnants of Yinqiang Xiaojiedu, chose to follow Liu Zhiyuan.

At that time, although Liu Zhiyuan looked weaker, Liu Zhiyuan followed the 200-year-old game of play, while Zhang Ting picked out chariots and horses to end the separatist situation of warriors.

Therefore, many dental soldiers who were hard to change chose to join Liu Zhiyuan.

When Liu Zhiyuan was defeated in Xingzhou, many of these people ran to the mountains to hide, and it was already the end of the road.

But later, in order to restore production and life in Hebei as soon as possible, Zhang Tie chose to break the Wubao to release the population, release the slaves controlled by the wealthy, and recruit the people who hid in the mountains and swamps to cultivate the average land.

During the liberation of tens of thousands of people, the imperial court really didn't have so many qualified officials to check them out one by one, so these people took the opportunity to hide and were recruited by Zhao Zaili and others until now.

The remnants of the former Hebei Yabing soldiers still have high combat effectiveness, Weibo Yabing soldiers!No matter how many years the Tang Dynasty has been in chaos, they have been fierce for so many years, and they can even decide the outcome of the battle between Liang and Jin.

Even though he was dying now, it wasn't something the more than 100 people in the fort along the river could resist, and no more than 20 people could fight in the fort, especially in such small-scale battles, silver spears were better at it.

But as soon as the fight started, the situation began to change, because Zhao Zaili and others failed to take down the Fort along the river, in fact, they had already failed.

Their strategy was to take advantage of the chaos to cross the Yellow River, burn down the pontoon bridge at Baimadu, and then go south to Songzhou to respond to the Xuzhou Wuning army going north.

From Huazhou to Shangqiu Mansion in Songzhou, there are thousands of miles, which requires them not to make too much noise.

In particular, the burning of the Baimadu floating bridge cannot be completed in a short while. Once someone is alert, it will not be easy to burn.

Therefore, the first and most critical step of this plan is to quietly take down Yanhe Fort, and then use the name of the Inspection Department of Yanhe Fort to deceive the Huazhou team of the Baimadu Floating Bridge. Zhongwei Army.

But now, the smoke of the war has been ignited, and it won't be long before Huazhou Zhongwei and several nearby inspection departments will have soldiers rushing over.

Therefore, when these people attacked the Fort along the River, they had to pay attention to the movements everywhere, and several people were killed in advance, and their morale was low.

On the side of Yanhe Fort, Zhang Xunjian is from Longtongsha Prefecture, and he will not be timid even if he is chopped into meat.

For the rest of the Long Marchers who are strong and brave, just these overt and secret benefits can buy their lives, no!It should be able to buy the lives of their whole family.

Therefore, while half-hearted and frightened, while desperately resisting, the morale of the two sides was not at the same level at the beginning.

Zhang Xunjian's horizontal knife has become jagged, his arms are sore and he can't pull the bow anymore, the armor on his body is full of arrow shafts, and he looks like a hedgehog.

Counting the old blind man, six of the nine Long March warriors had already died in battle, and the rest were all wounded.

Hundreds of Shang Yi Cong, at least 30 to 50 people are gone, and there are no more than [-] people who are still with Zhang Xunjian, and the rest don't know whether they ran away or were suppressed to other places.

But although they were few in number, they guarded Beacon Terrace with a firm will. Even if they resisted instinctively, none of them flinched.

Zhao Zaili was not a person with a strong temperament, and he was already 68 years old. The longer the battle dragged on, the more panicked he became.

Seeing that three or 400 of them stormed the inspection fort like Yanhe Fort and couldn't take it down for half an hour, they immediately had the intention of retreating.

He even wanted to surrender and lose half.
