The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 281: Suppressing the Rebellion and Eliminating the Evildoers for the Imperial Court

And this is the team that will attack Guzang City tonight.

The leader's name was Yang Qiu, who was also a rebel general.

Around the age of forty, he experienced countless wars.

Because Cao Cao had previously adopted a policy of appeasement towards the generals in Liang Province.

Therefore, he was also granted the honors of Cavalry Commandant and Guannei Marquis by the court.

But in reality, he only had two thousand soldiers under his command.

The territory was limited to several counties under Anding County.

Not to mention comparing with the two big warlords Han and Ma.

Even among the small forces in Xiliang, it is considered weak.

Last year, Zhang Meng, the prefect of Wuwei, took advantage of Cao Cao's southern expedition to Jingzhou.

For personal revenge, he attacked and killed Handan Shang, the governor of Liangzhou.

Han Sui issued a manifesto, calling on all the tribes in Liang Province to attack Zhang Meng together.

He claimed that this was to eliminate harm to the court.

However, this action was neither reported to the imperial court nor notified to Cao Cao.

It was Han Sui who sent the troops on his own initiative.

However, the various tribes in Liangzhou still responded positively.

Only Yang Qiu listened to his subordinates' advice and did not act rashly.

He also secretly sent people to ask Cao Cao for instructions, and only sent troops after receiving his consent.

That's why it was delayed for several months.

During this period, Han Sui led his troops to victory after victory.

The war is almost over.

The troops participating in the battle in accordance with the agreement among the various tribes in Liangzhou.

They can all share the enemy's supplies and property.

You can even plunder enemy cities.

Yang Qiu had already fallen behind others, and if he didn't hurry up, he would get a hot meal.

There is really no benefit at all!

We worked like this day and night for seven or eight days.

The soldiers, exhausted, finally arrived at the city of Guzang.

At this time, the layers of soldiers and troops had already surrounded the city tightly.

Yang Qiu's troops were few in number to begin with, and now they were all tired from running.

He couldn't keep up for a while, and there were only a dozen personal soldiers left by his side.

I don't know which young general is responsible for supervising the rear team.

As soon as he saw Yang Qiu, he asked loudly:
"Where did the soldiers come from to cause trouble here?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Qiu also shouted in response:
"I am Yang Qiu, the commander of the Anding Cavalry, and I have come to reinforce you."

"Take me to see General Han!"

With few soldiers under his command, leaders also suffer.

The young general didn't take him seriously at all and said with a smile:
"Oh, it's Captain Yang!"

"You really came?"

"If we were a step later, we would have captured Guzang City."

After that, the man was no longer available to lead the way for him.

Just make way for him to pass.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Yang Qiu didn't care and rushed in with his personal soldiers.

After passing through several teams, we finally arrived at the moat.

I saw dozens of soldiers holding torches under the city, with seven or eight generals on horseback sitting side by side in the middle.

The man in the middle was wearing armor and a helmet.

He was riding a big black horse, with a broad face and a long beard.

His eyes looked red in the firelight.

Although he is nearly sixty years old, he still has the same aura and looks fierce.

This person was Han Sui, who was promoted by Cao Cao last year.

Next to him were Cheng Yinma Wan and others.

They are all leaders of various tribes in Liangzhou and Guanzhong.

Han Sui couldn't help but frown when he saw Yang Qiu arriving at this time.

Ma Wan always had a loud voice, and at this moment he shouted first:
"Hey! Isn't this Brother Yang?! Why are you here just now?"

"Are you busy having fun at home?"

"You wasted time because you wore the wrong pants?"

This remark caused the generals to burst into laughter.

Cheng Yin also cursed with a big belly:
"You really know how to get a bargain!"

"We're fighting hard in the front, and you've been sitting there for half a month." "Now you want to get a piece of the pie? What's the point?!"

Yang Qiu ignored them and only explained to Han Sui:
"General Han, last year there was a drought and the harvest was poor, and my men almost mutinied."

"We just defeated a gang of bandits half a month ago, and gathered some military rations before forming a team."

"I'm a few days late, please bear with me."

It is said that a group of robbers were wiped out.

In fact, they just robbed a few villages.

All of them are now official generals.

Of course, we can't tell the truth about this kind of robbery.

Although Han Sui was a big boss who ruled a certain area, he was at least a scholar and had some bearing.

Although he was unhappy at this time, he did not blame her, but just said coldly:
"The war is urgent, no need to say more."

"Hurry up and lead the troops to surround the west gate. Don't delay any further!"

"Yes!" Yang Qiu took the order and left.

"Wait! Everyone has worked so hard, but you're the last one to arrive. This isn't fair!"

"When we capture the city and divide the property, we will take half from you."

Yang Qiu was also stunned when he heard this. In just a few days, the results of the battle were reduced by half!
Who could stand this? ! Moreover, these people are robbers and bandits.

But he changed his mind at this moment. The tribes in Liang Province are now led by Ma Teng and Han Sui.

All important matters are decided by consultation between the two families.

Now that Ma Teng has entered the court, his son Ma Chao is extremely brave.

He is quite prestigious among the Qiang people, but he is still young after all.

Therefore, the current boundaries of Liangzhou are under the control of Han Sui.

Firstly, Yang Qiu was in the wrong, and secondly, he didn't dare to confront him in person.

So I had to swallow my anger and leave in disappointment.

But at this moment, a soldier beside him shouted:
"Look! Zhang Meng is coming out!"

Everyone looked up upon hearing this, and saw an old general appear on the enemy tower.

This person was none other than Zhang Meng, the governor of Wuwei, or Zhang Shuwei.

He is the son of Zhang Huan, a famous general of the previous dynasty, and is now nearly sixty years old.

When he was appointed as the prefect of Wuwei.

It happened that the imperial court appointed Handan Shang as the governor of Liangzhou.

The two of them took office at the same time and should have worked together in unity.

I didn't expect that it would end up in a life-and-death fight.

The previous governor of Liangzhou was Wei Duan, a nobleman from Jingzhao.

Later, when Wei Duan came to the court, Cao Cao sent a scholar from Yanzhou instead.

This person is also capable, but he does not understand the situation in Liangzhou.

He always opposed Zhang Meng, a local military tyrant.

The relationship between the two was tense for a time, to the point that Zhang Meng could no longer tolerate it.

He led his troops to surround the governor's mansion and captured the merchants of Handan.

I thought Cao Cao was too busy marching south to take care of Guanxi.

Who knew that while the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole is behind it, and that internal strife would bring about external troubles.

Killing local officials for no reason is against justice.

In addition, Han Sui and his troops were numerous and powerful.

As a result, Zhang Meng suffered defeat after defeat and was trapped in the isolated city of Guzang.

Now life and death depend on tonight.

Han Sui saw Zhang Meng finally show up at this time.

He also drove his horse forward a few steps, raised his head and shouted loudly:

"Brother Zhang, it's been a long time since we last met. I hope you are doing well!"

They were both from Liangzhou and had dealt with each other in their early years.

But now that we are on the battlefield, isn't it sad?

"Han Yue! Why did you lead your troops to attack my city for no reason?!"

Zhang Meng knew Han Sui's background very well.

This old fox's former name was Han Yue, with the courtesy name Wensui.

Later he changed his name because of his participation in the rebellion.

He became Han Sui, with the courtesy name Wenyue.

At this time, Han Sui heard the other party calling his name.

He also smiled and said:
"Brother Zhang, aren't you asking this even though you already know the answer?"

"You murdered the governor with evil intentions!"

"I sent troops to quell the rebellion and eliminate the evildoers!"
