Chapter 125 I am Zhang Yide from Yan!
"Report, General Zuo, the Qiang and Hu have bypassed Jincheng and are heading towards Hanyang County!"

"Qiang Hu? What are Qiang Hu? Let Gai Xun annihilate them all in Ayang County! If he fails to do so, he will be beheaded!"

Ayang County.

Gai Xun stood on the top of the city wall, staring at the Qiang people who surrounded Ayang County. Their heads were crowded together like a dense forest with no end in sight. Their shouts of killing shook the sky, and the weapons they raised high emitted cold light, which hurt my eyes.

But there was no fear on his face. He let the cold wind hit his face without being moved. He even snatched the bow and arrow from the soldier and shot an arrow at the abdomen of a Qiang Hu.

"Fu Jun."

A familiar voice sounded in my ears.

Gai Xun quickly retreated. He looked at the soldier who spoke. The soldier's leather armor was tattered and there was an arrowhead stuck in his arm. The arrowhead had already penetrated into the tendon. The soldier just found a piece of rag to wrap it casually, but his face was still so resolute and familiar.

These were the knights he sent to ask Zuo Chang for help, and they were his personal guards.

Taking a deep breath, Gai Xun did not have time to ask about the injuries of his personal guards. He lowered his voice and asked directly, "How is it, has the Left Envoy agreed to send troops?"

The guard opened his chapped mouth, guilt overflowing from his sunburned face. He lowered his head and uttered a dry whisper from his throat.

"My Lord, the envoy did not agree. Moreover, he ordered us to annihilate the Qiang and Hu in Ayang County."

"."

Gai Xun fell silent. He looked at the attacking Qiang and Hu. Their faces were ferocious, like evil spirits. After several days of stalemate with Qiang and Hu, he finally felt the coldness this time. He did not blame his guards. He had expected this result, but he just didn't want to believe it.

As for asking him to completely annihilate the Qiang and Hu.

For this, Gai Xun had only two words to say: "ridiculous."

Since Zuo Chang became the governor of Liangzhou, he had sold out all the weapons in the treasury. Because he had a close relationship with the previous governor Liang Hu and was an upright person who did not want to be associated with Zuo Chang and others, he was excluded and even his weapons and armor were defective.

In this situation, even if Liu Hou were resurrected, he wouldn't be able to wipe out the Qiang and Hu completely, right?

Suddenly, the offensive of Qiang and Hu weakened.

"Excuse me, are you Gai Xun, the governor of Hanyang?"

Unfamiliar Han accents were heard from the top of the city wall. Gai Xun asked the soldiers on the top of the city wall to take a short break. He wanted to listen to what these Qiang and Hu people had to say.

"It's me, what's the matter?!"

When Qiang and Hu heard the voice, their tone became more joyful.

"Gai Taishou, we are under the command of Captain Leng. Right now, treacherous officials are in power and eunuchs have usurped power. We want to kill them. We are not traitors, we are righteous soldiers!"

"So we want to nominate Lord Gai as our leader, and together we will kill the treacherous ministers and return power to Your Majesty!"

As they talked, even the Qiang and Hu people became outraged.

Gai Xun's eyes were full of contempt. He said loudly
"Bah! You are just trying to persuade me to surrender! A real man should be loyal to his master, how can he associate with a thief?! Even if I die, I will not surrender to you!"

"."

The man stopped talking.

The offensive of the Qiang and Hu people became more and more fierce, with ladders and simple catapults being used one after another.

In order to repay Gai Xun's kindness, the soldiers gritted their teeth and carried on.

But people are not made of iron after all. Fatigue spread wildly among the soldiers like a plague. Even the honest and simple soldiers couldn't help but ask.

"Master, will the Left Envoy really send troops to rescue?"

"." Gai Xun suppressed his inner anxiety, showing a wise look, and said confidently, "Yes, someone will definitely come to rescue you."

However, his heart was full of bitterness. Zuo Chang only cared about his immediate interests and never took the Qiang people seriously. How could he come to rescue them?

Seeing that the Qiang and Hu's offensive was becoming more and more fierce, some of them even reached the top of the city wall.

Wang Guo and Song Jian, the main generals of this Qiang and Hu army, laughed out loud at this moment.

"Hahaha, it's not that we are too weak, it's that something went wrong last time!"

"Brother Wang, what you said is right! As long as we capture Ayang County and capture Gai Xun, it will be the same!"

Their deputy general said, "General Wang, General Song, what if someone comes to rescue Gai Xun? We must fight quickly and decisively!"

"Rescue?"

Wang Guo and Song Jian laughed as if they had heard a joke. They both burst into laughter and tears came out of their eyes.

They said in unison, "Impossible, Zuo Chang won't come to the rescue!"

"What about Liu Bei?"

The vice general mentioned this name, and Wang Guo and Song Jian's face suddenly changed. As two people who followed Beigong Boyu, they witnessed Liu Bei's bravery and strategy throughout the whole process. Even the fire at Haomen was caused by Liu Bei in their eyes. This name became an indelible nightmare for the two. When they heard this name, they shuddered uncontrollably. Wang Guo swallowed his saliva, "Liu Bei, he shouldn't come, right?"

"I, I don't think so," Song Jian agreed, but there was no confidence in his voice at all.

However, the atmosphere seemed to be wrong. Song Jian said, "Brother Wang, what do you think that is?"

"What?" Wang Guo looked over. "Is that a flag?"

Gai Xun, who was defending Ayang County, also noticed the black spots approaching from afar, but he had not yet seen them clearly.

A roar like rolling thunder exploded in the ears of the Qiang and Hu people on the outermost side.

"I am Zhang Yide from Yan! Qiang and Hu bandits, surrender immediately!!!"

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, the Qiang people turned their heads and saw something terrifying appear at the end of their vision.

The flag fluttered in the wind, and just one look at it sent a chill down one's spine.

A Qiang man screamed in surprise, "It's Liu Bei, Liu Bei is coming!"

Once morale begins to decline in a war, it is like the collapse of a mountain. It cannot be stopped by human power, let alone a group of frightened birds.
The Qiang people in the rear began to lose their composure, and the Qiang people in the front attacking the city were confused about the situation.

Gai Xun couldn't figure out the situation either. Could it be that reinforcements really had arrived?

He seized the opportunity and imitated the Qiang accent, shouting, "Not good, not good, the Han army is coming, everyone, run away!"

The Qiang people who were attacking the city gave up their attacks and turned around to see what was going on.

Zhang Fei grinned and shouted his name tirelessly.

Taishi Ci quickly drew his arrows, like a ruthless official at Mount Tai, taking the life of a Qiang man every time he struck.

They led 400 cavalrymen and did not choose to violently attack the enemy formation, but just circled around the periphery.

Zhang Fei shouted until his throat was almost smoking, and only then did the Qiang people retreat.

Until now, Gai Xun still felt puzzled. The soldiers around him said obediently, "My Lord, just as you expected, reinforcements really came and repelled the Qiang people!"

Gai Xun pursed his lips and said, "No, I didn't ask for reinforcements. Where did this come from?"

Wait until Zhang Fei and others arrived at the city gate.

Gai Xun and his soldiers were all shocked. These reinforcements were indeed wearing Han army armor and using Han-made weapons, but why were their weapons and armor so brand new and complete, and there were less than 500 of them in total?

This was enough to repel tens of thousands of enemies.
The leading general must be a famous general!
Gai Xun clasped his fists and asked, "May I ask who the general is?"

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "I am Zhang Fei Zhang Yide, a captain under the command of Jincheng Governor Liu Xuande!"

"Zhang Yide?"

Zhang Fei showed his official seal, and Gai Xun got a bamboo basket, tied a rope to the basket, and let the lightest soldier go down in the basket.

After confirming Zhang Fei's identity, Gai Xun quickly opened the city gate and greeted him.

"Captain Zhang, I was sorry to have offended you just now because I wanted to confirm your identity."

"Haha, it doesn't matter!"

"Captain, please!"

"Gai Taishou, please!"

Walking on the road to Ayang County, Gai Xun looked at Zhang Fei and thought, he is really a fierce general! I just don't know how he did it.
Gai Xun simply asked, "Captain Zhang, how did you repel the enemy just now?"

"How do we repel the enemy?" Zhang Fei said shamelessly, "General Gai, this is my plan."

"Plot?"

"I told you that you wouldn't understand. The details are quite complicated. You will know that I am a counselor like Liu Hou!"

Taishi Ci was trying hard to hold back his laughter.

"Gai Taishou."

"Ok?"

Gai Xun, who was immersed in the fantasy of the black-faced Liu Hou, immediately reacted and asked, "Captain Zhang, what's the matter?"

"Hehe" Zhang Fei showed an unfathomable smile.
