The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Chapter 213: Defeating the Arrogant Soldiers
The Liangqiang rebels surrounded Ji County (today's Gangu County, Gansu Province) with 12 soldiers. Their main camp relied on the Weishui River and was stationed in the Luomenju and Huán Road areas.

(Weishui: It is the largest tributary of the Yellow River. It originates from Niaoshu Mountain in Weiyuan County, Dingxi City, Gansu Province, and spans eastern Gansu and central Shaanxi. It mainly flows through Tianshui, today's Gansu, and Baoji, Xianyang, Xi'an, Weinan, etc. in the Guanzhong Plain of Shaanxi Province. It reaches the Yellow River in Tongguan County, Weinan City. The location of Jixian County is the plain created by the impact of the Wei River.

Pi is a ferocious porcupine-like animal, and tigers and wolves cannot get close to it.Pi Dao is a county-level administrative unit.Like Qiang Dao and Didao, it means that Hu and Han people live together.Li Tai's "Kuo Di Zhi" said: "The ancient city of Pidao is 37 miles southeast of Xiangwu County, Weizhou, and it was the ancient Pi Rong town."

"Shui Jing Zhu. Volume [-]" records: The Wei River flows eastward into Wuyang River.In addition, the Guancheng River water flows out to the south, and the Ancheng Valley water flows out to the north. The two rivers flow into the Wei River at different intervals.The Wei River flows to the east, with Luomen Xishan flowing eastward, and Sanfu Valley water flowing into it. The three rivers are unified, flowing northeast, and pouring into the Wei River.There was a gathering at Luomen. In the past, Feng Yi attacked Luomen and died before being evacuated.In the tenth year after Jianwu's founding, he came to She and attacked again. He captured Po Huo Zichun, and Longyou leveled. )
Han Sui did not bring all his troops to Hanyang County, but secretly left 4 people in Jincheng County. This was his trump card to turn around.

Liu Han had ordered people to submit a secret report of Xu Rong's reinforcements to Hanyang to the emperor, and also received a secret order from Liu Hong: "All matters of suppressing the rebellion in Liangzhou will be directed by the King of Hejian, and the military of each county in Liangzhou will be controlled during the war."

Liu Han was very happy. This meant that the army entered Liangzhou in accordance with orders and was not mobilized privately.Although he is the emperor's younger brother, he does not have the power to control Liangzhou's military affairs. The movement of the army must be authorized by the emperor.

Liu Hong was also very happy. As long as he had an emperor brother who was loyal to him, he could rest easy as emperor. Since he wanted to quell the rebellion, let him go and give him the power to act expediently during the war. With enough trust, the emperor would be able to do whatever he wanted. I won’t rebel!
Therefore, after receiving the imperial edict, Liu Han ordered Xu Rong, Han Dang, and Cheng Pu to secretly set out from Shangjun with [-] cavalry. In order to prevent the Liangzhou thieves from learning the news in advance, the army left Shangjun and entered Zuo Fengyi and Zhuan. The road leads to Fufeng on the right, passes Longguan and enters Hanyang County.

Hidden by day and marching at night, soldiers are valuable and quick.

In order to cooperate with Xu Rong's troops, Huang Zhong's army camped forty miles outside Hanyang City and stood still to buy time for Xu Rong's arrival.

"Report! Report to the general, the leader of the rebels, Guo Guo, is leading a challenge outside the camp."

Zhang Yang looked at Huang Zhong and asked anxiously: "General, this is the third time, how long will we have to retreat?"

Huang Zhong said nothing, but looked at Jia Xu, who was sitting upright beside him.

Jia Xu laughed and said: "Hahaha, Uncle Zhi (Zhang Yang), don't be impatient. You go to fight outside the camp. It's still the same old rule. Only defeat is allowed, no victory!"

"This"

Zhang Yang looked at Huang Zhong, obviously unwilling.

In the past two days, they had pretended to be defeated twice. Each time they were defeated, the army broke camp and retreated ten miles.

Since Zhang Yang joined the Bingzhou Army, he has been victorious in every attack. Now this battle is very frustrating and makes him feel very uncomfortable.

"My lord has said that taking one step back is to accumulate strength by taking two steps forward, and retracting your fist is to punch out more powerfully. Does Uncle Zhi know what he means?"

Liu Han had extremely high "achievement" in both tactical theory and strategic command. When Yanmen blocked the enemy, he said to the generals: "If you save the land and lose the people, everyone will lose; if you save the people, you will lose the land." All exist."

Don't just look at the situation in front of you. For the sake of a larger battle plan and more effective elimination of the enemy, a temporary concession is nothing. When the time comes, you can get your capital back with profits.

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Huang Zhong couldn't help but sigh and said: "My lord is named Zhuji, and a certain Huang Zhong worships me."

Jia Xu also agreed upon hearing this. In Jia Xu's eyes, his lord seemed to know everything, including military affairs, politics, people's livelihood, and literature.
Except for force, Liu Han's personal force can only be ranked in the middle of the second-rate generals, and is not very outstanding.

But this is not a big problem. Among those who have achieved great things in the past and present, how many of them have personally gone into battle to fight?
Only this point made everyone feel that the Lord was a human being, not a god.

Ordinary people can be famous in history if they excel in one thing, but the lord is proficient in everything, and with the status of the emperor's brother, it is so dazzling!As long as he doesn't rebel, as long as he doesn't seek death, it will be difficult to lose.

Jia Xu: "Retreating after defeat has two purposes. One is to be arrogant, and arrogant soldiers will be defeated. The rebels have won consecutive battles and do not take the imperial army seriously, which breeds arrogance. But we are mourning soldiers and mourning soldiers." The army is bound to win. Compared with the two, what is there to fear?
The second is to delay the time. When the reinforcements arrive at the designated location, it will be our decisive moment, and then we can decide the outcome in one battle. "

Everyone nodded, this is the fighting style they are familiar with, the fighting style of the Bingzhou Army. If you don't move, you will be slapped to death if you move, without giving you any chance.

"As long as they come to challenge us, we will pretend to be defeated, then retreat, lead the enemies to the battlefield we have designed, and kill them!"

As a native of Liangzhou, Jia Xu knows these Liangzhou rebels best. If he wants to severely damage them, he cannot do without giving them some sweetness.

"Shehu Valley?"

This is the Qiang people’s nightmare.

(Historical records: "Jiu Zi entered the camp and went to the Qiang camp forty or fifty miles to Fanting Mountain. He sent Tian Yan and Xia Yu to occupy the mountain with 5000 people. The Qiang learned that the crowd was attacking them and asked sternly: 'Tian Yan, Xia Yu Are you here? Where is the Yi Congqiang in Huangzhong? Today we want to decide whether to live or die. The army was frightened, and Yan and others encouraged the soldiers to fight to the death and defeated them. The Qiang people collapsed and ran eastward, reunited in Shehu Valley, and divided their troops. Guard the upper and lower gates of the valleys. Jiong Gui destroyed them in one fell swoop. Not wanting to disperse again, he sent a thousand men to build a wooden fence in Xi County, twenty paces wide and forty miles long, to cover it." Fight to the death against the Qiang people. , wanted to exterminate the Qiang people in one fell swoop, not just for fame, but also because they had deep hatred against the Qiang people. In another battle, the Qiang people were greatly defeated, and the Qiang people were dispersed. Duan Jiong searched the valleys in the mountains and hunted down the Qiang people, beheading nineteen thousand of his commanders and the following. At the same level, he obtained countless items such as cattle, horses, donkeys, mules, felts, furs, tents, tents, etc.)
"Military advisor, will the Qiang people come here?"

If others don’t know, will Jia Xu know?

Duan Jiong massacred tens of thousands of Qiang people in Shehu Valley. Will the Qiang people come here again?
"What if the defeated general happened to be Huang Hansheng, and he happened to be defeated and fled into Shehu Valley? Will the Qiang people rush in and kill the defeated army in order to avenge their shame?"

"This"

Zhang Yang was speechless, and he was not sure whether the Qiang people would go in.

"The show is about to be played, but it's still not quite ready yet. We still need to lose a few games. When the time comes, we will be blocked from both ends and pinched from both sides."

"Another Southern Huns!"

Before Jia Xu finished speaking, Zhang Yang had already anticipated the result.

"Correct!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Everyone laughed, but Huang Zhong looked at Jia Xu speechlessly, "As expected of Mr. Duan's eldest grandson, he uses the same tricks to wipe out the family with ease."

The Southern Xiongnu were destroyed because of Duan Jiong's plan to wipe out every household.

Now, his eldest grandson is going to follow suit, so the Qiang people are busy.
