contend

Chapter 300
Hu Fenjun was entangled on the east bank of Wuting against the water.

Yang Zheng also led his troops to station on the east bank, following Hu Fen's camp.

Every morning, noon and evening, Liu Heng would take the gongs and drummers to beat, and three Qiang riders wandered around the camp.

At the beginning, it could arouse Hu Fenjun's anger. Occasionally, some people who couldn't help it came out and asked for a one-on-one fight. They were all taught a lesson by Liu Heng's mace. They were either captured or seriously injured, and they were sent back as a friendly exchange. As a model, Yang Zheng also lost some medicine.

There are many warriors in Liangzhou, and Liu Heng's mace is not invincible.

At first, I was able to cope with it freely, but then it gradually became difficult.

The opponent had only a ring-shouldered knife, not even wearing armor, dodging left and right under Liu Heng's mace, and finally injured Liu Heng.

It caused a sky-high cheer in the opposite camp.

Hu Fen also sent some medicine to deliberately humiliate Yang Zheng.

Both sides had no intention of a decisive battle. Hu Fen seemed to have received some news, and he was not in a hurry to rush back. He guarded the camp and sent an army from time to time to hold Yang Zheng back.

This move made Yang Zheng puzzled.

After three or four days, scouts came from the west.

"Meng Tongzhi and Pang Sicheng led more than [-] people to defeat the Wei Guan army and capture them alive. They are already on the way to escort Jincheng."

"What?" Yang Zheng was in disbelief.

Hu Fen had already said that the ones staying behind were Wei Guan and Xu Zhi, and many other elites.

Can Meng Guan and Pang Qing succeed?

But looking at the scout's hesitation to speak, Yang Zheng knew that things were not that simple.

"what happened?"

Only then did the scout tell the whole process.

Yang Zheng gasped.

Of the more than [-] young and middle-aged refugees, only a thousand or so returned to Xiping safely...

Dozens of people, including Lou Jingou, Bi Yuewu and other elites, were also killed. The arrangement of Jiuyeying, Xuanyisi, and 28 Stars in Wuwei was severely damaged, as well as the food and armaments invested in the early stage. To lose is to lose.

Of course, more than a thousand refugees must have retreated to Xiping one after another, but this seriously deviated from Yang Zheng's strategic expectations.

If Meng Guan can calm down and bring back [-] to [-] young adults, it will not be a problem, then the situation of lack of population in Xiping will be greatly alleviated.

Most of these young and strong are Han Chinese that Yang Zheng urgently needs...

"Where are Meng Guan and Pang Qing?" Yang Zheng couldn't help being a little annoyed, it was hard to regard this battle as a victory.

After all, he is young and vigorous, unable to hold fire.

The scout hurriedly knelt and cupped his hands, "Also on the way to plead guilty."

Meng Guan is loyal, but he is too radical. In the battle to break the Qiang, he wanted to assassinate Zhou Yu just because of groundless rumors...

I should have been able to meet the person I am today.

It now appears that Meng Guan is actually not suitable for managing the Nine Camps.

Pay attention to careful work and put a long line to catch big fish.

After paying so much, the income is only Wei Guan and Hu Fen's [-] plays.

He is more suitable for a general, going forward bravely and perseveringly.

It was only at the beginning that there was really no suitable candidate around, so Meng Guan was asked to go up.

Yang Zheng heaved a long sigh, pecked and drank, and seemed to have a fate in the dark, "Meng Guanjiu was removed from the post of camp commander and demoted to a personal guard, and Pang Qing was removed from the post of deputy secretary of the Xuanyi Division and also demoted to a personal guard .”

If Meng Guan hadn't been lucky enough to win this time and captured Wei Guan alive, he would end up beheading Ma Su with tears when he came back.

Time to teach these young men a lesson.

Otherwise, how much capital does Xiping have for them to squander like this?

Staying by your side as a personal guard can also sharpen your temper and suppress your temper.

"Wei!" The scout led the way and left.

Yang Zheng sat alone in the military tent. Although Wei Guan was captured alive, given the urgency of the gentry in this era, he may not be able to use it for himself. After all, the temple in Xiping is too small.

A person who is not used for himself is not of much value.

Lu Zhi has a close relationship with himself, and came to Xiping by chance.

As for Du Yu, it was Yang Zheng's deliberate deliberation and a lot of effort to keep him.

Yang Zheng remembered that Wei Guan didn't seem to be well received by the Sima family.

He was promoted by Emperor Ming in his early years, and was promoted many times by Cao Shuang in the Zhengshi period, and finally became a regular servant of Sanqi. Although he was not very close to Cao Shuang's party, he did not fall for Sima Yi and Queen Mother Guo. He was impartial in the court , Acting impartially, neither close nor distant.

"Report to the general, the latest news from the Shu army!" The scout came to report.

Only then did Yang Zheng restrain his thoughts.

The Shu army captured Taoyang all the way, and went straight to Bindao all the way.

Longyou is raging with flames.

However, Deng Ai didn't move in Didao, and sat and watched his hometown Bindao be besieged.

Yang Zheng had to admire this determination and self-confidence.

But thinking of Deng Ai's background in civil engineering, he is good at fortifications such as Wubao city defense, and the Bindao has been operated by him for many years.

At that time, Hao Zhao had a Chencang city with 1000 troops, which blocked Zhuge Wuhou's tens of thousands of troops for nearly a month.

Zhuge tried his best to break through.

The firmness of the Tao is by no means inferior to Chen Cang.

The situation in Longyou fell into a confrontation again.

These news seemed to be of little value, but Yang Zheng already sensed the danger.

It was as if two beasts were dormant at the door of the house.

After the Battle of Breaking Qiang, Deng Ai became even darker. Just like the sky in the northwest, the clouds were getting lower and lower, and it was also a bit stuffy.

Two days later, Meng Guan and Pang Qing escorted Wei Guan to come.

When the two of them saw Yang Zheng's face, they couldn't kneel for a long time, their faces wishing they could dig into the soil.

And Wei Guan was escorted by two soldiers on the left and right, and was pressed to the ground, but he still looked up at Yang Zheng, his eyes were sometimes confused, sometimes sharp, and sometimes sober...

Yang Zheng waved his hand, the soldiers let go, Wei Guan stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, straightened up and bowed to Yang Zheng, "Your Excellency is Yang Xingyun?"

The situation is embarrassing, but the demeanor and temperament are not embarrassing.

People of gentry origin have their own merits.

"Your Excellency is Wei Boyu? I have admired you for a long time."

"Guan has long admired him." Wei Guan's eyes were still looking up and down at Yang Zheng.

With Xiping's current situation, people like Wei Guan are actually in great need.

Lu Zhi is proficient in government affairs, Du Yu is omnipotent, but he is too dignified, which may also be influenced by "Spring and Autumn".

Yang Zheng has become more and more irreconcilable with the Sima family today.

It is not enough to have a conspiracy alone, you must have a conspiracy.

Even if you don't need it, at least you can see through the enemy's conspiracy.

Judging by Wei Guan's appearance, it seems that it can be used?
"Since you have admired me for a long time, sir, why don't you stay in Xiping and help someone out? You are Wei Chen, and I am Wei Chen!" Yang Zheng said casually.

Wei Guan's eyes sparkled and he said: "If Guan is not sensible today, wouldn't he want his head to fall to the ground?"

Yang Zheng nodded without hesitation, "Your Majesty, you can't let the tiger go back to the mountain. Besides, the heroic spirit of our army also needs to be sacrificed with your head!"

"Yes." Wei Guan agreed without thinking.

Very happy, without the slightest hesitation.

He didn't hesitate, but Yang Zheng was a little hesitant and surprised, "Don't you think about it, sir?"

Wei Guan laughed and said, "First, I don't want to die yet, and second, Guan also wants to see how far the general can go."

Yang Zheng understood that this was the one who got him, and he didn't completely get his heart.

Wei Guan didn't die on the battlefield, which means he didn't want to die.

Everyone is taking one step at a time.
