Yanzhi Mountain, also known as "Rouge Mountain", is located in the east of Zhangye Chelan County. It is said that there is a kind of red and blue grass growing on the mountain, which can be used as a dye, and it can be used as rouge after being mixed with oil, so it is called Rouge Mountain.

In the spring of the second year of Yuanzhen, Emperor Wu ordered Huo Hussar to lead 10,000 cavalry out of Longxi to attack the Xiongnu Youxian Wang. In six days, the five kingdoms of the Xiongnu were broken. More than 1,000 miles beyond the Yanzhi Mountain, and the Xiongnu fought at the foot of Gaolan Mountain. Nearly 9,000 enemies were annihilated, the king of Luhou of the Xiongnu and the king of Zhelan were killed, and many people were captured by the prince of Hun and Xiangguo and Duwei.

In the summer of the same year. Huo Hucai led tens of thousands of elite horsemen, went out of Beidi County, lived in Yanze, and fought fiercely with the Xiongnu at the foot of Qilian Mountain. Annihilated more than 30,000 enemies, captured more than 120 people, including five Xiongnu kings and queen mothers, Shan Yu's clan, princes, Xiangguo, and generals, surrendered the Xiongnu Hun evil king and 40,000 people, and occupied the entire territory of the Hexi Corridor. Open up the westward passage between the Central Plains and the Western Regions. Since then, Yanzhi Mountain has gone down in history as a symbol of victory.

Later, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty drove the fortunate Yanzhi Mountain, held the "World Exposition", convened the envoys of the 27 countries, and wrote the famous long poem "Drinking Horses Great Wall Cave". It has made Yanzhi Mountain the earliest birthplace of the "World Expo" and is famous all over the world. That's right, the Universal Exposition, which originated in the Sui Dynasty.

With the bald Xianbei into Longxi, to and from the Hexi Corridor, plundering caravans. Many beacons were destroyed along the way.

The bald Xianbei rode a fast horse, and came and went like the wind. For example, the army of Zhangye's vassal state, and the soldiers of the counties and counties could not catch up. All parts of the corridor can only strictly guard the checkpoints and wait for reinforcements. Or wait for the bald hair to retreat and relieve the siege by itself. For months, it has been the norm.

Because of the participation of Taiping Dao, many unbelievable events have been made possible.

Like what. The fortress of Rile, built on the basis of the Great Wall, can be called impregnable, and it fell in one day. was swept away by the bald Xianbei. Now that I think about it, it must be the Taiping Road in the defenders as an internal response, open the gate at night, let Xianbei enter, and then burn the city after killing all the defenders. Annihilation of evidence.

As the so-called day and night defense, it is difficult to prevent thieves.

Taiping Dao is selfish and disregards the country's righteousness. Can you call it a "national thief"?

As he walked through the burned Guanyi, Liu Bei's pale face was proof of this.

The bald Xianbei entrenched in the Hexi Corridor, cut off the road, and involved the troops of the four counties in Hexi. Once Dongqiang is chaotic again, there is something wrong in Chang'an, and the four counties of Hexi will have no time to look eastward. In Liu Bei's view, the sect leader is not just for money. If you can get a good Qianghu, according to Sanfu Jinggi, cut off the western Luoyang reinforcements. The east and west are attacked, and they are one step closer to success.

And Chang'an is the capital of the Han Dynasty and the old capital of the former Han Dynasty. It is also very appropriate to be called emperor here.

And Liu Bei thought. It is to expel Taiping Dao from Xiliang and Sanfu in one fell swoop. Compared with the prefectures and counties in the eastern part of the country, Sect Leader Zhang's roots in the western part of the country are not deep. Otherwise, it will not rely on the power of Xianbei and Dongqiang.

Ma Yuanyi said, "The unrivaled loneliness of the sect leader will not be too long. ’

Liu Bei said, "I never thought that one day I would be able to play against the sect leader." ’

Maybe. This day is really coming soon.

And at the end of this game of chess in the world, Liu Bei chose Xiliang Sanfu.

Huang Gai once said to Liu Bei: "With the people of Shanyue in the six counties of Jiangdong, you can be millions of people in China." If the mountains of the six counties of Jiangdong can be used by me, they can compete with the millions of people in the Central Plains.

This sentence is also applicable to today's Sanfu Xiliang. As long as Dongqiang is completely pacified, Sanfu is the land of Longxing. Notice. Since the present Han Dynasty, the Qiang people who have continuously moved into Sanfu Gyeonggi have multiplied for 200 years, and now there are no less than one million people.

The prime minister made several northern expeditions and six out of Qishan. That's right.

Two days later, the silk convoy arrived in Zhangye and Koudan County.

Yanzhi Mountain is about 85 miles long from east to west and about 50 miles wide from north to south. The main peak, Baihualing, towers into the sky. The county seat of Jie Dan is located in the Yanzhi Valley, which is the west into the throat.

At dusk, the convoy camped in an abandoned beacon.

Tomorrow you will be able to reach Quitan County. Entering the city to replenish supplies and rest, it is a hundred times safer than outside the city. The caravan was up and down, smiling. Day by day closer to Dunhuang. Day by day, he became more and more away from danger. The success is imminent, and all the kings rise up.

The scouts who had gone to explore the way returned.

Liu Bei's camp.

This trip was personally led by Shi Jian to explore the situation at the foot of Yanzhi Mountain.

The Xiongnu have been in Hexi for 56 years, and the area around Yanzhi Mountain is the main pastoral area. Hanyang (Damaying) Dacaotan is an excellent natural pasture. In order to make the Xiongnu royal family, ministers and their families live in peace, they chose a site to build a city in the Yanzhi Valley. The original city is based on the mountain and the stone, and the houses are stacked on top of each other. and brought water over the walls into the city for drinking. Surrounded by mountains, the pines and cypresses inside and outside are towering to the sky, a hundred flowers are vibrant, and the scenery is picturesque. The Xiongnu were driven west, and Emperor Wu moved with him to guard the Han people. Delete Danzhi County, and the county governance is located in the former city of the Xiongnu.

After following for many days, the bald Xianbei must be impatient.

Once the signal is fired, Xianbei will rush to make a move before the convoy enters the county seat. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it.

Shi Jian and others have already determined that the road ahead is safe. At night, Liu Bei asked the wealthy merchants of Maoling to lead the merchants quietly at night and went to the county seat of Cutan. The remaining hundred, all of them were township machine vehicles disguised as silk wagons.

The silk caravans traveled day and night. The cinnabar in the bamboo tube is also scattered along the way. No different from before. Even if Ma Yuanyi and the others were all punished, the bald Xianbei who followed all the way did not know.

Wait for the caravan to take advantage of the cover of night and go away first. Liu Bei then began to arrange.

The machine car quickly formed a military camp in the courtyard, and the dragon and tiger spirit riders under their command were covered in armor and waited for them. Seeing that the sky was about to be exposed, Shi Lian threw out the flying dragon claw and climbed to the top of the fort. Light the rope, bow the full moon, and shoot the arrows into the air.

Bang –

Fireworks.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from all directions.

Qi Dynasty Feng Wei gathered.

Liu Bei standing on the top of the beacon tower. Watching Xianbei rush out of the horizon, gallop wildly, pull out sharp arrows, and point directly at the Fengyan camp. I can't help but feel a trace of joy in the meeting of old people.

Compared to the well-equipped Xianbei King under Baitan City. The bald hair in front of him is more like a barbarian who has fallen into the grass. Having lost the nourishment of civilization, they are rapidly degrading into the wilderness.

The door is opened.

The Xianbei knight who rushed forward did not doubt him. Draw the knife in the hand, and hit it headlong.

Rushing into the silent camp, he rolled his tongue and roared: "Those who descend will not be killed, kneel on the ground to avoid death!" ”

"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who kneel on the ground will not die-"

More and more Xianbei Turquoise rode in.

Wait for the echo to dissipate. But listening to the silent camp, someone suddenly burped.

But see a man in embroidered clothes. Eight feet long, bee-waisted ape arms. Catch a knife in one hand and hold a flag in the other. With a wine gourd hanging from his waist, he walked out of the castle.

The Xianbei knight was about to scold. When I saw the flag clearly, I couldn't help but stiffen.

The one who holds up the flame horn is clearly the red deer head staff of Da Danyu!

"Who are you?" Then there were a hundred captains, whipping and shouting.

The embroidered man smiled at him: "Han, General Fu Han, the long history of the Western Regions, the army under the command of the Marquis of Linxiang, and Yan Xing of Jincheng." ”
