It's another season of spring flowers. The sound of horses' hooves was in the middle, and a Han rode through Lushui and arrived at Hutu Ze. The first two veterans have gray hair. It is that Yi and Duan Xuan.

Watching the subordinates drinking water on the edge of Daze, Koji Yi sighed: "In the first battle of the grassland, Xianbei is far away, and it will no longer be a disaster." "In previous years, this place was under the jurisdiction of Wuwei County, but it was the drinking horse land of the Hu people. But the Han army could not be controlled. Now around this Daze, as far as the eye can see, where can you still see a Hu man.

Duan Xuan stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Budugen and Kebi can both die, Xianbei has lost hundreds of thousands of people, how can you not be afraid." ”

After the beginning of spring, they were ordered to continue the things that had not been contested last year, and came to pass through the four counties of Hexi. So that's it. led the army all the way forward, and after arriving in Guzang, it was Wuwei County. Taishou got the news early and waited here.

After entering the city, Koji Yi asked Taishou about the situation in Hexi. Taishou frowned and said: "Zhangye and Jiuquan have isolated the news, and I don't know the news of Dunhuang for a long time. ”

Koji Yi listened and asked carefully. But it turned out that Liangzhou was in turmoil in recent years, so Zhangye guarded Zhang Jin too much, and Jiuquan guarded Huanghua to separate one side to stand on their own, and no longer connected with several counties in the east of Liangzhou.

Duan Xuan was furious when he heard this, and said: "The two thieves and dogs are bold, but they are just killing themselves!" ”

So Lu Yi asked Wuwei Taishou to transport grain and grass, and he and Duan Xuan immediately sent troops to Zhangye. As soon as the Han army arrived, the counties along the way rebelled. When the army arrived, they surrounded the city.

Zhang Jin was shocked when he knew that the Han army was coming, so he ordered him to ride to Jiuquan Yi Huanghua, saying: "My lips are dead and my teeth are cold, if my brother doesn't save me, I will be in danger." Huang Hua thought so, so he ordered all the people and horses to kill Zhangye to help Zhang Jin.

The two rebels, one inside and one outside, are horns of each other. Confront the Han army. However, it was said that Dunhuang was too guarded by Ma Ai in the county, and he smelled the movement of Jiuquan, so he rode to explore it. After a while, the report said: "When the soldiers of the Han family arrived in Zhangye, Jiuquan raised troops to help." ”

Ma Ai was surprised inexplicably, stood up suddenly, and said, "I haven't heard from the Han family for a long time, and I don't want to come back today!" He was blocked by the two rebels of Jiuquan and Zhangye, and the news was cut off. I don't know what the situation in the East is for a long time. Now that I heard that there was a war on Zhangye's side, my heart was moved at the moment. So he called Zhang Gong to engage in it.

Zhang Gong, the son of Zhang Yan, the former governor of the Western Regions. Mighty and strategic, known as Ma Ai's attention. Hearing that Ma Ai was invited, he hurriedly came, entered the county government, and said, "I don't know what the king of the mansion is calling for something?" ”

Ma Ai told Zhang Gong about the situation and said, "I don't know why Qing is right? ”

Zhang Gong listened, his eyes lit up, and he said to Ma Ai: "Fujun, this is a good opportunity for us." Now that the king is here, I expect that the rebels are not the enemies of the king's division. At this time, Jiuquan was empty, so it was better to send troops to copy Jiuquan to help the king to rebel. ”

As soon as Ma Ai heard it, he knew what Zhang Gong meant. With this little bit of people in Dunhuang, I don't go to Zhangye to get together, so as not to be injured by mistake. It's better to choose soft persimmon pinching, if you knock down Jiuquan, it can be regarded as your own meritorious service. In the future, when the Han army comes, it will be easy to talk on your own side.

So Ma Ai happily obeyed, and then ordered Zhang Gong to lead a thousand people to attack Jiuquan. Huang Hua rescued Zhang Jin and transferred all the soldiers who could fight in Jiuquan, but he never thought that Ma Ai would copy his back road.

Zhang Gong led his troops to raid Yuanquan first, and it was good to enter the city, so he comforted the county order and told him the truth: "Huang Hua and Zhang Jin are already dry bones in the tomb, and the county order is good to consider, where to go, all by one thought." ”

The county order listened to it, and complained in my heart, listening to what you said, there is a Han army in the east, and you have called again in the west, and I have fallen into your hands, what do you want me to think? If I don't say half a word, I'll lose my head.

So he said to Zhang Gong: "I am willing to rebel from the general." ”

Zhang Gong laughed, he only had a thousand soldiers and horses, and now the raid is okay, if he encounters the diehards to close the city gate and defend the city, it will be bad. Now with the help of the Yuanquan County Order, the situation is different.

With the help of the Yuanquan County Order, Zhang Gong swaggered into Shatou County in the name of the Yuanquan County Lieutenant and the Yuanquan County Commander's handwritten letter. After entering the city, the official office suddenly attacked, and the county commander and the county lieutenant were arrested. Then the old trick was repeated all the way, and it was successful again and again. Smoothly arrived at Lufu.

When you get to Lufu, if you want to deceive people, then you can't do it. Lu Fu stayed behind and were all Huang Hua's cronies. However, at this time, Zhang Hua had more than a thousand people. In several counties along the way, in order to prevent those county commanders from rebelling, Zhang Gong took half of the soldiers and horses in the county away, leaving only some people to control law and order. The county orders couldn't cry or laugh, most of the soldiers and horses in the county were taken away by Huang Hua, and half were requisitioned by Zhang Gong, and they were almost empty. The border counties are not as good as the Central Plains, and there is a lot of chaos here. In order to avoid being taken advantage of when there is a shortage of manpower, the county commanders are all in good spirits and personally lead the people to patrol the city. Don't dare to slack off.

Zhang Gong went to Lufu City, and he didn't attack the city, he wanted to attack the city, and he was simply sent to death. Under the banner of the Han army, they camped outside the city, but they shot countless silk books into the city and told the people in the city that the king had arrived.

The lieutenant of Jiuquan is also like an ant on a hot pot in the city, turning around. There are not necessarily more people left behind in the city than the Han army outside. It's just that there is a city to rely on for temporary security. Now that Taishou is leading the army, he has sent someone to ask for help, and he doesn't know when Taishou will be able to return?

Huang Hua was in Zhangye and fought against the Han army together with Zhang Jin. When the Han army attacked the city, he sent troops to attack him, and when the Han army attacked him, he stuck to the camp, and Zhang Jin went out of the city to help.

After doing this several times, Lu Yi and Duan Xuan couldn't help but sneer. The two of them didn't know how many battles they had seen, and they had not forcibly pressed them before, but they just wanted to see if the two traitors had other means. Seeing it back and forth, it was like this, and my heart was relieved. If the technique is like this, it will be strange to blame Naiweng for being ruthless!

On this day, Lu Yi and Duan Xuan raised troops again and attacked the Huanghua camp. Zhang Jin, the head of the city, saw that the Han army was exhausted, so he opened the city gate and led the troops out to attack the Han army.

Zhang Jin was very cautious, in order to prevent the Han army from ambushing, he opened the west gate last time, and opened the south gate next time, and after leading the troops out, it was only far behind the Han army, so that the Han army could not let go of their hands and feet to attack Huanghua. As soon as the goal was achieved, he immediately slipped back into the city. This time he was the same, seeing the Han army attacking the Huanghua camp, he quietly went out of the north gate, and after going around in a circle, he followed behind the Han army, and the golden drum shook together, wanting to shake the heart of the Han army.

Zhang Jin also had no choice, if it was possible, he would rather attack the Han army camp. However, he also knew that if he couldn't harass behind the Han army, even if he broke the Han army's camp, it would be useless, and if the Han army didn't care about the camp, he would attack Huanghua bent on destroying Huanghua. That's going to be old.
