I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 176 Chapter 176
Xu Wei, who was dealing with the affairs of the Huns in Meiji, couldn't help feeling amused when he saw this incident!
Then he said to one of his secretaries: "Remember that Niu Gui, Wang Lei, and Zhao Rong fought and fought, and they were fined for one month! The Xianbei women and children who came to Yunzhong County were divided into three, and let them take them back. At the same time, tell them, Tens of thousands of Huns will go to them soon, so get them ready! Stop quarreling!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ge and Zhang Baiqi, who were dealing with government affairs here, all looked at Xu Wei!

Xu Wei explained to them: "Didn't Huanglong bring tens of thousands of women and children from the Xianbei people? Now Niu Gui, Wang Lei, and Zhao Rong seem to be relying on these women and children to attract young and strong to their territory, so that they distribute Unequal fights!"

Hearing Xu Wei's words, Zhang Baiqi and the others laughed out loud. They never thought that Niu Gui and the others would do such a thing!

Wang Ge was even more surprised: "No, Niu Gui is the second most powerful general in our Tengjia Army. How could Wang Lei and Zhao Rong be Niu Gui's opponents!"

Xu Wei said: "Wang Lei and Zhao Rong team up to fight Niu Gui!"

These Wang Ge laughed even more heartily!
After Zhang Baiqi finished laughing, he said: "Shuofang, Wuyuan, and Yunzhong are indeed going to immigrate to Shibian. It happens that there are too many Huns in Meiji, which is not conducive to the rule of our Tengjia Army. It is best for women and children to go to the three counties of Shuofang! At the same time, all the young and strong refugees taken in in Mayi will also immigrate there. They have nothing. If they know that there is 100 mu of land in the three counties of Shuofang, they will go there! And there are also It is beneficial to our rule, as long as they marry Han Chinese, their offspring will naturally become Han Chinese!"

Xu Wei nodded, agreeing with this opinion but still said: "Meiji also needs to move some Han people here. No matter where we are, the number of Han people must account for more than half, otherwise our rule will be difficult to deepen!"

The only thing Xu Wei feels lucky now is that Han people’s household registration is very valuable in this era. Whether it is Xianbei people, Huns or Karasuma people, they are rushing to become Han people. As long as the Tengjia Army does not discriminate against them internally, they will recognize their Han people’s identity. very high!

Everyone also thinks that it is necessary to move some tribes to the three counties of Yunzhong County. The population of the three counties does not exceed 10. Now Yanmen County has a population of more than one million. This population is very uneven. Of course, except for this In addition, the population structure is also very unstable. This time it occupied the entire territory of the Southern Huns, and the population of Mayi soared to about 160 million, including 50 Huns, 30 Xianbei, and 5-6 Karasuma. Ten thousand, that is to say, Han Chinese can't even occupy half of the number of people on the territory of the Tengjia Army. This is a very dangerous structure!

Wang Ge thought for a while and said: "It seems that we need to ask our old friend Dong Zhuo for help! There are too many barbarians in our territory now. If there is no population replenishment, we must stop the conquest of the Xianbei people!"

Now the place where the Tengjia Army can replenish the population is the war-torn Youzhou, and the second is Dong Zhuo in Taiyuan County!

It's a pity that these two places also have congenital defects. The population of Youzhou is only over one million, while Bingzhou doesn't even have a million. Jizhou is only one-third the size of Bingzhou, but it has a population of nearly 50 million. The population distribution is too uneven.

Zhang Baiqi followed up and said: "Although the population of Bingzhou is not large, the population of Jizhou next to Bingzhou is large. We can even ask Zhang Yan to help us transport some refugees here. Anyway, he can't support too many people hiding in the mountains!"

Xu Wei said: "You can give it a try!"

However, Xu Wei believed in making use of people's hearts, so he said: "You can ask Zhang Yan, if we exchange a pair of armor for 10 refugees, would he be willing to help us transport the refugees to Mayi!"

Zhang Baiqi said: "The price of Shuai Qu is too high. Now there are hundreds of thousands of refugees in Jizhou, if not millions. If you really want to exchange armor, Zhang Yan dares to get millions of refugees to come to Mayi, or 50." For a refugee to exchange for a pair of armor, this is almost equivalent to thousands of dollars for a refugee! It is enough for Zhang Yan to earn!"

Armors in this era are really expensive, and Xu Wei has this unique advantage because he is close to the desert. In addition, ceramics are used as the main raw material of the armor, so that he can easily arm more than 10 armored soldiers. Can use the body to resist the sword, only the real elite can wear leather armor, and officers above the general can only wear iron armor!
The top-grade cowhide armor in Dahan costs 2 to 3 yuan. Zhang Baiqi believes that Mayi’s ceramic armor is more than three times stronger than leather armor. Even 3 yuan for a set is a friendship price!

Xu Wei said: "I will leave the matter of contacting Zhang Yan to you, and implement it according to your ideas. In short, try to get as many refugees as possible to our Mayi."

"At the same time, find someone to tell Dong Zhuo that our Tengjia Army bought refugees for 1000 yuan, and ask him if he can help with this!"

In the fourth year of Zhongping, in October, Taiyuan County!
As soon as Dong Zhuo wrote a letter to him from Xu Wei on the street, he immediately summoned all his cronies!

Then give them the letter to read!

Dong Zhuo said with emotion: "Now Lei Gong is really getting stronger and stronger. The Huns and Xianbei combined 14 troops, and they were defeated by him in less than a month! Now even Meiji is occupied by him. Think about it. The Huns who have dominated the world for hundreds of years will be wiped out by Lei Gong!"

Although he still doesn't know the news that Xubuguduhou has been defeated, he already knows that Baimatong died in the battle and the [-] Hun army was wiped out. Now even Xubuguduhou has not been defeated, but Meiji They are all occupied by Lei Gong, Xu Bu Gudu has become a rootless duckling, and his defeat is doomed!
But now Lei Gong actually wants refugees. Obviously, the Xianbei people in Shuofang County and Wuyuan County were also defeated by Lei Gong.
Li Jue scratched his head and asked, "General, what does Lei Gong mean? He actually wants us to sell refugees to them, and pay them thousands of dollars each. Isn't refugee everywhere in the big man, who would use money to buy them? Are you playing tricks on us?"

Guo Si said strangely: "Yes! If we catch 10 refugees, will Lei Gong really give us [-] million yuan? If the refugees are really worth this price, how can the big man be full of refugees all over the world!"

At this time, Li Ru said coldly: "Refugees are worthless to other people, but to Lei Gong, refugees are very valuable! After Lei Gong occupied Mayi, he has been fighting with Xianbei and Huns, and he has fought repeatedly. Every time he wins, there will be a large number of prisoners. It is said that after conquering Baitan Mountain, Lei Gong captured hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people.

Now there are hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people in Guangmai, and this time they annexed the entire Southern Huns. With Lei Gong's character of not killing, most of the Southern Huns must have saved their lives. There are [-] or [-] Hu people, and almost half of Lei Gong's subordinates are Hu people, so Lei Gong is so eager to want Han people to enrich his territory! "

Dong Zhuo said with a little fear: "The Huns were all wiped out by Lei Gong. If his army of 10 attacked Taiyuan County, what would we do to resist it!"

Niu Fu said loudly: "Our Xiliang army is not easy to provoke, sir, you are experienced in many battles, and there is an imperial court behind us. If Lei Gong really dares to attack us, we can resist layer by layer. Could it be that Lei Gong can penetrate the whole world?" Bingzhou!"

Obviously Niu Fu is saying the most embarrassing things with the loudest voice!
Li Ru said to Dong Zhuo: "General, Lei Gong annexed the entire Xiongnu, and now he has held on. He will not attack outside without spending a few years! Otherwise, he would not ask the general for refugees! He just wants to improve The population on his territory!"

Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo was a little relieved, and then asked: "Should we help Lei Gong collect the refugees, and increase the strength of the rattan armor army after the refugees arrive in Mayi, the old man is worried that he will be trapped in a cocoon!"

Li Ru thought for a while and said: "For the general, the best strategy now is to leave the whirlpool of Taiyuan County and return to the fundamental place of Liangzhou is the best choice. Although Lei Gong did not attack the big man, he The strength of the army is getting stronger and stronger. After occupying Meiji, half of the counties and counties in the entire Bingzhou have been occupied by Lei Gong. There are millions of people under his rule, and he can easily mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to go out. With such a strong strength, They have replaced the Xianbei people as our greatest enemy!

The general's current position is too dangerous. When Lei Gong changes the direction of attack, the general will be the first to bear the brunt, so the sooner he leaves Taiyuan County, the better for the general. The subordinates originally wanted the general to stay in the east area, but now it seems that returning to Xiliang is the only way to go. Is our best choice! "

Dong Zhuo said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. It won't be long before the whole big man knows that Lei Gong has wiped out the entire Southern Xiongnu, and the entire Xihe County is occupied by Lei Gong. Now that Lei Gong's troops have arrived in Hedong County, the court can no longer lie to them. There is no threat anymore, I'm afraid we will become the imperial court's vanguard against Lei Gong!"

Li Rudao: "It's not difficult to say. Lei Gong annexed the entire Southern Huns and would not send troops without a few years of consumption. The general can use these few years to bribe the ten permanent servants and let them change the position of the general. Now the general He Jun The power of the army is getting stronger and stronger, the southern army and the northern army are completely controlled by the general, and the ten permanent servants have already gone to the gap with the general, and if they want to come, the ten permanent servants also need the general to protect their safety!"

Dong Zhuo said helplessly: "This is not an easy task. Shi Changshi and their greed are well known in the world. Don't ask them to help if you don't have hundreds of millions of dollars. I don't have such a big family business! Wen You still talk about the middle strategy?

Li Rudao: "The middle strategy is to contact the imperial court to report the danger of Lei Gong, and let 20 troops be sent to completely wipe out Lei Gong!"

Dong Zhuo was surprised and said, "Now the imperial court can provide 20 troops?"

Li Rudao: "Now there are really 20 troops around Mayi. The 10 troops led by Liu Bei in Youzhou have already defeated Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju and the others. I think this winter can completely wipe out Zhang Chun and the two of them. By then Youzhou You can free up 10 troops.

The general has 3 troops here, and other places in Bingzhou can also raise 3 troops. Huangfusong in Chang'an has 4 northern troops.At that time, the imperial court can encircle on three sides. Huangfu Song will attack Leigong from Shangjun, and Liu Bei will attack Mayi from Daijun. With these 20 troops surrounded, the general only needs to lead 6 troops to defend Taiyuan County, which is enough to destroy Leigong! "

Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said: "It's too unrealistic. Although the imperial court has this army, it doesn't have the financial resources to maintain a 20 army fighting within a range of several thousand miles! And what you said is the most ideal state. From the perspective of Mayi's mobilization ability, it is possible to recruit more than 20 troops to defend, and 20 to fight 20. The one who suffers is the court. If Lei Gong cannot be defeated after fighting for half a year, the court may not have food and grass to support the 20 army. !"

Dong Zhuo understands the current situation of the imperial court too well. He was procrastinated when dealing with the rebellion of the Qiang people. The treasury became difficult to maintain, so that Zhang Wen, the proprietor at the time, wanted to win quickly, but Bian Zhang Han Sui seized the opportunity and defeated them one by one.But now it is necessary to maintain a war of 10 people, I am afraid that the court will not be able to maintain it for 20 months.

Li Rudao: "The worst strategy is that the general is here to wait for Lei Gong to attack. We should have a few years. If the general builds Taiyuan County into a fortress, dig deep, build high walls, build more weapons, armor, horses, sleepers, Maybe it can withstand Lei Gong's attack!"

Dong Zhuo still shook his head and said, "It's even worse. Don't forget that the enemy is Lei Gong. Who knows what kind of thunder he will use to break through the city wall! Although I know this is nonsense, I still haven't found Lei Gong to break the wall!" What method does the city use. There is no point in building high walls under such circumstances!
And even if Lei Gong can be resisted, I am afraid that all the wealth accumulated by the old man over the past ten years will be consumed. Without the army, who would care about the old man in Xiliang? Maybe they will kick the old man back Xiliang, without the protection of the army, I offended so many people in Xiliang, how can they make me feel better! "

After listening to Li Ru's words, Niu Fu said, "It doesn't mean that we have no way out!"

Dong Zhuo stood up and said, "Who said that? Li Ru has already told us that as long as we can get 10 refugees, there will be [-] million yuan. At that time, whether it is used to bribe ten servants or to arm Soldiers, this is the way!"

"Open the Jingkou Pass so that the refugees can enter Bingzhou. Lei Gong didn't want refugees, so the old man sent him hundreds of thousands of refugees. There is a big man behind the old man, and he still worries that there will be no refugees. If Lei Gong supports it, we can live a little longer. year!"

In the fourth year of Zhongping, in October, Liu Bei camped in Youzhou!
Since the defeat of Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei was worried that the battle situation in Youzhou would become unmanageable, so he quickly marched into Youzhou. At the same time, Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, used his prestige in Youzhou to instigate many people from Karasuma to become his subordinates. Now he There is a Karasuma cavalry of 3 people, and the two attack Zhang Chun and Zhangju's army on both sides. Liu Bei conquered Fanyang and Zhuojun, and Liu Yu defeated Juyongguan, and now he is leading the army to Yuyang County.

Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju are now at the end of the road. First, their Karasuma men were scared by Gongsun Zan, and then when they heard that Liu Bei led an army of 10 into Youzhou, the Karasuma men also saw Zhang Chun. The boat of Zhang Ju and Zhang Ju was about to sink, and they disembarked one after another to sell Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju. Under Liu Yu's instigation, they joined the Han army and became Liu Yu's subordinates, and under Liu Yu's command, they attacked Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju!

And when Zhang Chun and Zhangju rebelled, they let the Karasuma people burn, kill and loot in Yuyang County, so that their hometowns did not support him, and the core army of the two was the soldiers of Yuyang. People's soldiers have no morale, and the army has fighting power to speak of.

The betrayal of the Karasuma people put Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju in a situation of defending the enemy with their backs, and they were defeated again and again in the face of Liu Bei's attack.Now the two of them can only rely on withdrawing troops to procrastinate for time!

But what Liu Bei cares about now is not Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, but Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping's news from Mayi!
After Liu Bei read it, he handed it to Guan Yu and the others and said, "Let's all have a look!"

Guan Yu and others were shocked after watching it!
Zhang Fei was the first to couldn't help but said: "This Lei Gong's action is too fast. It was only a month ago that the Huns joined forces with the Xianbei to attack his territory. We haven't solved Zhang Chunzhang yet, but he first killed the Huns The He Xianbei were defeated, and they also occupied Meiji, the Southern Huns are dead! This is more than a hundred thousand cavalry, much stronger than Zhang Chunzhangju's rebels!"

Liu Bei said solemnly: "I'm not worried about the demise of the Southern Huns, but this time the hundreds of thousands of Huns and Xianbei's allied forces were captured by Lei Gong in such a short period of time. It can be seen that the power of the Tengjia Army is now so strong that the imperial court can no longer suppress it. , Now that he occupies half of Bingzhou, he is recuperating, and when Lei Gong is dispatched again, I am afraid that the court will not be able to stop him, and the big man will be ruined again by then!"

Guan Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, even if you really want to deal with Lei Gong, you must first deal with Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, and end the war in Youzhou!"

Only Zhao Yun asked curiously: "Mr. Xuande, this Lei Gong is really so powerful that even hundreds of thousands of barbarians are no match for him?"

These years, the biggest enemy of the big man is the Xianbei people, and Zhao Yun has often heard Lei Gong attacking the Xianbei people in the past two years, and the Xianbei people seem to be vulnerable in the hands of Lei Gong, let Lei Gong rub him!
Jian Yong sighed and said: "This Lei Gong is really so powerful. I doubt that Lei Gong is a high-ranking child. Lei Gong knows too much. He is not only proficient in all kinds of crafts, but also has both civil and military skills. A barren mayi is developed under his hands. He is better than Yecheng, not to mention martial arts, the Xianbei people who have caused everyone such a headache, in his hands, they are the ones who can be beaten whenever they want!"

Zhang Fei reminded: "Xianhe, you have forgotten that this Lei Gong is still an enemy of ten thousand people. When we fought Lei Gong, the three of us joined forces and we were not his opponent. My old Zhang's strength is already very little in the big man. Someone can match it, but it is still not as good as Lei Gong!"

Jian Yongdao: "Yes, Lei Gong's martial arts are also top-notch. Such a top-level genius, even the top aristocrats of the Han Dynasty, cannot be cultivated! I'm afraid they can be cultivated with unborn talents!"

"A master!" Zhao Yun thought to himself, his master is a master, should he ask his master, what is the origin of the mountain gate, which cultivated a peerless genius like Lei Gong!

Liu Bei said firmly: "The battle against Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju cannot be delayed any longer. We must completely annihilate Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju before the snow falls in Youzhou!"

Guan Yu thought for a while and said: "If you want to solve Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion quickly, you must kill Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju. As long as these two die, the other rebels will definitely surrender to the court!"

"Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju are now leading an army to garrison Ji County. We are attacking Ji County with great fanfare, creating enough momentum to make these two thieves panic. They think that Ji County must not be kept. They can only continue to flee to Liaodong. As long as there is a team at this time Stop the two thieves and execute a beheading battle against them, so the chaos in Youzhou will be settled!"

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Yun Chang, Zilong, you lead 1 cavalry in ambush on the road to Youbeiping, you must not let these two thieves escape!"

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun came out and said, "No!"

"Yi Dexianhe, you and Wei brothers have enough momentum to make the two thieves Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju think that my army in the north is more than [-], and let the two thieves Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju understand that fleeing to Liaodong is their only way to survive !"

Zhang Fei and Jian Yong came out and said, "No!"

So Liu Bei's Northern Expedition Army was beating drums and banners every day, and the Northern Expedition Army was approaching Ji County like a rainbow.

The momentum of Liu Bei's army was so strong that it really scared Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, thinking that Liu Bei had more than 10 troops!In fact, there are only 10 troops, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju. The betrayal of the Karasuma people has left only 5 to 6 rebels, and there are only 3 in Ji County, half of which are young men. He just joined, and now even Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's confidantes don't have morale, let alone La Zhuangding's soldiers.

The battle has not yet been fought, and the momentum of the Han army is light.Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju had already panicked. Together, the two felt that the hinterland of Youzhou could not stay any longer. They had to flee to Liaodong, where the sky was high and the emperor was far away. Given the current situation of the big man, it was impossible to send troops to pursue him. them!

But at this time, the rebels were in a state of panic. They were worried that a hasty retreat would cause chaos. If the Han army found out, Liu Bei would definitely chase after them and beat them fiercely.
Zhang Chun thought for a while and said to Zhang Ju: "We have to face the pursuit of the Han army along the way. We will definitely not be able to escape with the infantry. We can only lead the cavalry all the way. In this way, the army of the big Han will not be able to pursue. The tens of thousands of infantry can still help. We delay for a few days."

Zhang Ju also felt that this made sense, so the two asked a confidant general to lead an army of 3 to stay in Jixian, and let them stay for three days before surrendering.

And they brought 3000 cavalry to flee for their lives in the direction of Liaodong!

The outskirts of Lu County!

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun waited for a long time, and finally came to report that a large group of cavalry came here!

Guan Yu sneered and said, "It must be the two thieves Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju!"

Zhao Yundao: "Kill these two thieves, and Youzhou will be at peace!"

"Everyone get ready to fight!"

Around 1 cavalry mounted their horses one after another, and tidied up their weapons!

When Zhang Chunzhang's cavalry appeared

Guan Yu shouted violently: "Brothers, kill them!"

Then he rushed out in the first place.

"Kill the thief!" Zhao Yun followed Guan Yu and rushed out!
Tens of thousands of cavalry were divided into two teams, and under the leadership of Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, they roared all the way and rushed towards Zhang Chunzhangju!

Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju suddenly realized that there were so many cavalry charging towards him and said in panic, "What's the matter with the Han army's ambush!"

Seeing Zhang Chun Zhang Ju, Guan Yu mobilized his horse and shouted, "Zhang Chun Zhang Ju, take your life!"

A saber was like cutting through the waves, killing Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's personal guards. In the face of the huge impact and unparalleled power, all obstacles disappeared, and Guan Yu came to Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju in less than a quarter of an hour. A cold light passed and beheaded the two of them.

"Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju are dead, those who surrender will not die!"
