Supplies in Hanyang City are becoming increasingly scarce, and deserters continue to appear.

Han Sui knew that he couldn't last long, so he began to work on his own back road.

At first, Han Sui wanted to return to the Qiang territory, and he had great ambitions to build his own city in the Qiang territory, but this idea was quickly shattered.

Because at the same time that Ma Teng was besieging Hanyang, Qin Hua also led his army to the expedition, and his target was the Qiang people.

In March of the second year of Zhongping, Qin Hua reappointed officials at all levels in the county with the help of Jia Xu, and when he had nothing to do, Qin Hua decided to lead the remaining soldiers to conquer the territory of the Qiang people.

His first target was the Black Sheep tribe that had injured him.

The population of the Black Sheep tribe is nearly 20,000, and the available troops are 8,000, and most of them are cavalry.

Qin Hua's purpose in attacking the Qiang tribe was to harvest a large number of war horses.

Qin Hua's troops were mostly infantry, and it was undoubtedly a great loss to deal with cavalry, but fortunately, he made a large number of war equipment in advance, and with the help of these equipment, Qin Hua defeated the Black Sheep tribe in a battle, captured more than 10,000 people (including women and children), harvested nearly 10,000 war horses, and countless cattle and sheep.

The Black Sheep tribe was wiped out, and naturally no one came to ransom these captives, so Qin Hua placed them in Jincheng County.

Many officials objected to this, because the Qiang people were wild and untamable, and if they were gathered together to settle down, sooner or later there would be problems.

In the end, he followed Jia Xu's suggestion and let these Qiang people be scattered and settled in various villages and tuntians in households.

They were watched by the people of the Han Dynasty, and after five years of farming, they could be recognized as Han Chinese.

However, there will be no harsh criticism for their fields and taxes as for the people of the Han Dynasty.

Although many people were very dissatisfied with Qin Hua's request that they give up nomadism and instead cultivate the fields, they could only accept the arrangement due to Qin Hua's prestige.

After the idea of returning to the Qiang territory failed, Han Sui wanted to return to Dahan, so he wrote to his friend Ma Teng.

The two became friends when they were young, and after Han Sui joined the rebels, he wrote to Ma Teng to invite him to join him.

As a result, because of Qin Hua's relationship, Ma Teng did not join in the end.

If Qin Hua had died, Ma Teng would have joined Han Sui according to the course of history, and the two would later become the biggest warlords in Liangzhou.

It's just that it's different now, because of Qin Hua's relationship, the two didn't come together, but instead became Ma Teng leading the army to crusade against Han Sui.

"Report, Lord Ma Teng sent an urgent letter."

Qin Hua was happily studying the harvest of the crusade against the Black Sheep Department with Jia Xu and the others, when he suddenly heard a report from a guard.

After reading the letter, Qin Hua laughed and handed the letter to Jia Xu.

"Han Sui, please surrender."

"Han Sui?"

Jia Xu hurriedly read the letter, and then congratulated Qin Hua.

"It's a good thing that Han Sui asked to surrender, but won't this make it impossible to accomplish the purpose of military training?"

"Why should you mind this, aren't there still many Qiang tribes?"

Qin Hua thought for a while, and finally agreed to Han Sui's request to surrender.

The battle with Han Sui only has the effect of training, but if you attack the Qiang tribe, then the harvest is much stronger than simple training.

After dealing with the follow-up of the Black Sheep Tribe, Qin Hua personally led the entire army to join Ma Teng.

Now Qin Hua's army has reached more than 20,000, and after this period of war, the strength has increased instead of decreasing.

The weather was nice and cloudless.

An army of 20,000 stood under the city of Hanyang, and as the troops in the middle parted on either side, a fully armored army came to the front.

This is the only fully armed team in Qin Hua's army, and it is also Qin Hua's personal guard.

Qin Hua and Zhang Liao walked out of the army and came to the city of Hanyang.

"My lord, further on is within the range of the bow and arrow."

As the captain of the pro-guard, Zhang Liao immediately reminded on the side.

"No, I can't."

Saying that, Qin Hua lightly clamped the horse's belly, and the dark war horse slowly walked towards Hanyang City.

"Archers prepare."

Seeing that Qin Hua was about to come to the city, a centurion immediately ordered the archers to prepare.

"Slow."

It was Han Sui who spoke, and it had been a long time since he sent the letter, and Han Sui didn't know Qin Hua, so he didn't know what Ma Teng was doing.

Han Sui walked up to the wall and shouted at Qin Hua, "Who is coming?" ”

Seeing that the distance was almost over, Qin Hua rubbed the spear in his hand on the ground and said to Han Sui: "I am Wuwei Qin Xuanhu, but you are Han Sui?" ”

"Someone."

"I came alone today, so I wanted to ask you, Han Sui, are you willing to surrender?"

Han Sui didn't expect Qin Hua to be so straightforward, he thought to himself that his letter had probably been seen by the other party.

After looking around, he saw that the military attachés around him had complicated faces, and Han Sui also knew that most of them were willing to surrender.

"Han Sui, are you willing to surrender."

Qin Hua asked loudly again, originally Han Sui wanted to talk to Qin Hua about the conditions first.

Unexpectedly, after Qin Hua finished saying this, the army behind him immediately shouted in unison.

"Han Sui, are you willing to surrender."

"Han Sui, are you willing to surrender."

...

The huge momentum made all the soldiers on the city wall stagnate.

I saw Qin Hua slowly raise his left hand, his hand grasped the fist, and the sound behind him immediately stopped.

Only then did Han Sui truly see how well-trained the Han army in front of him was, and he knew that he had no other choice.

"Han Sui is willing to surrender."

Saying that, Han Sui gave Qin Hua a big salute.

Hearing Han Sui's words, the soldiers on the city wall also laid down their weapons one after another, and soon after, the gate of the city wall slowly opened with a creaking sound.

The news that Qin Hua took Hanyang City without spending a single soldier quickly spread in Liangzhou, which greatly boosted his prestige again.

Qin Hua went to the court, and did not follow the rumors, but directly wrote about Han Sui's begging and surrender, and also wrote about Han Sui's forced participation in the rebels, indicating that Han Sui was willing to crusade against Beigong Boyu, another mastermind of the rebels.

With the relationship between the Qin family and the Ten Standing Servants, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion had just subsided, Emperor Ling of Han approved Qin Hua's report.

At the same time, Qin Hua asked Geng Xianbiao Ma Teng to be the guard of Hanyang County to govern the newly recovered Hanyang County, and Emperor Ling also allowed it.

At the same time, because of Qin Hua's merits, Emperor Ling of Han canonized Qin Hua as General Jianwei and continued to be responsible for the battle with the Qiang people.

After Han Sui surrendered to Qin Hua, he was made a lieutenant, on the same level as Zhang Liao and others. Bian Zhang worked for Hanyang County and was responsible for assisting Ma Teng in managing Hanyang County.

Since then, the northern part of Liangzhou has basically been under Qin Hua's control, and the rest of the counties have not been taken seriously by Qin Hua at all because they do not have many troops, and he began to prepare for the crusade against Beigong Boyu with peace of mind.

In other parts of Dahan, battles have never stopped.

Youzhou Zhang Chun rebelled, and Youzhou Mu Liu Yu conscripted troops to fight.

The remnants of the Yellow Turbans also began to gather, forming several large-scale Yellow Turban groups, among which the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, Baibo Yellow Turbans, and Montenegro Yellow Turbans were the most powerful.

The world is still in chaos, but Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, thought that Zhang Jiao had been killed, and the world had been restored to peace, and he still enjoyed himself with peace of mind and rarely asked about political affairs.
