64, the old man wants to get the snipe and the clam profit

The second place that made Li Biao uneasy was the Hedong force that currently occupied most of the Guanzhong.

This person who was crowned by the imperial court as a hussar general, a martial arts marquis, and a Sizhou pastor, governed the seven counties of Hedong, Henan, Hanoi, Hongnong, Feng Yi, Fufeng, and Jingzhao, held the festival and opened the mansion, and also supervised the affairs of the three prefectures of Si, Liang, and Yong, his name is Yan Yan Yan Yanming, but some people say that his other name is Yan Xing.

Yan Xing! When he heard this name again in Guanzhong, Li Biao's mind immediately appeared with his tall second brother with the same name and character.

Before Li Biao, he had also heard that there was a Hedong Taishou Yan Xing, who was a general under Dong Zhuo, who was fighting with Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others who were also out of the Xiliang Army, fighting for power and profit with each other.

After listening to this, Li Piao, who was busy with military affairs in Liangdi, smiled and knew that this was not like the same person.

But now, this Hedong Taishou Yan Xing not only annexed the forces of Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Zhang Ji, but also led the army westward to fight for Guanzhong, and collided head-on with the soldiers of Han Sui's army in Fufeng County.

This made Li Biao shocked, and a premonition inexplicably surged in his heart:

Maybe the second brother didn't die, he became today's Yan Yan, just like he left a deep impact on himself when he met for the first time, that young man with extraordinary ambition and ability survived the tragic and cruel battle with tens of thousands of corpses, he hibernated and forbeared, he swallowed the soldiers and horses of Dong Ying, he stepped on blood and corpses, and came to this day step by step.

This absurd premonition in his heart made Li Biao startled by himself, he felt that he was whimsical, it was absolutely impossible for such a thing to happen, but for some reason, since this premonition appeared, this absurd thought has been lingering in Li Biao's mind.

Turning his mind, the third uneasy place is the soldiers and horses under Han Sui's command who have many ingredients and are mixed.

The soldiers and horses under Han Sui's command were roughly divided into three categories.

The first type is Han Sui, Han Chang's headquarters soldiers and horses, they are composed of the clan children of the Han family in Jincheng, the guests are attached, the armor is generally complete, after a certain amount of training, there are many veterans who have served in the army for many times, and the number has been maintained at more than 10,000 people.

The second type of soldiers and horses are composed of the powerful soldiers of Wu Zong who follow and attach themselves to the Jincheng Han family. In the alliance with the Jincheng Han family as the core, the Li, Koji, Song, Tian, Yang, Jiang, Yan, Zhao and other families are all in the second order.

On the one hand, he gave these Jincheng, Wudu, and Longxi Wuzong the benefits of occupying the mountains, mining salt and iron, and selling war horses, and on the other hand, he asked each family to obey the orders and recruit the soldiers of each family to fight for him.

For his followers, Han Sui gave them the priority to choose the spoils of war and plunder the cities, and for those who disobeyed, Han Sui took thunderous measures, leading the other families to destroy their dock forts and divide up their property and population.

And these conscripted Wu Zong Haoqiang family soldiers have thousands of large numbers, hundreds of small people, and there are as many as 10,000 people together.

The third type of soldiers and horses are those Qiang and Zahu tribes who responded to Han Sui's troops, including Bird Wu Qiang and Ju Zhuqiang from Hanyang County, Yueshi Hu, Wuliang Qiang, and Frozen Qiang, Fu Nan Qiang, and Ti Sister Qiang from Jincheng County, as well as Fengyang Qiang, Le Sister Qiang, Zhong Qiang, Gongtang Qiang, and Lingwu Qiang from Longxi County.

In addition, there are also some Diren warriors from Hanyang and Wudu.

There are many kinds of soldiers and horses in this category, and the number of people is also the largest, and there are as many as 20,000 or 30,000 horses in total.

This is the composition of Han Sui's army. Li Biao looked at the Qianghu tribes outside the city with various totems and different costumes, and frowned tightly.

These Qianghu men and horses were seduced by the grain and silk women in the city of Guanzhong, and responded to Han Sui to send troops, each with their own thoughts, and gathered together in one army.

If they fight a large-scale battle of superiority, they will become the biggest destabilizing factor in the army.

Past failures have all verified this point.

It's a pity that up to Han Sui and down to Li Biao can't change these large numbers of Qianghu soldiers and horses.

On the contrary, in every battle, it is necessary to rely more on these fierce and rough and large numbers of Qianghu men and horses.

Li Biao was thinking about things in his heart, when there was a sound of leather boots climbing the stairs behind him.

"Boju, you're here too!"

Han Chang's face emerged from the steps behind him and said with a sneer.

In the Battle of Chencang that year, Han Chang was ordered by Han to abandon the men and horses of other families in Jincheng, and quietly rushed to the right flank to converge and withdraw, trapping the kingdom, Wang Fan's father and son and their soldiers and horses in the heavy siege of the Han army.

Afterwards, Han Chang, who took the responsibility for Han Sui's crimes, was infamous for "cowardly and fearful of war and fleeing from battle" and returned to Jincheng.

In the face of the heavy losses and the surging emotions of the Jincheng families, although Han Sui, who knew well, would not kill Han Chang, in order to appease the anger of the public, he still dismissed Han Chang from his military position as the leader of the troops in public, punished him as hard labor, and stayed in the army to make meritorious contributions.

Later, Han Chang endured humiliation for a long time before returning to his current position, but before he could start to show his skills, he found that he had another strong competitor.

That is Li Piao, who is the new son-in-law of Han Sui!

Han Sui's eldest son died early, and he had no children for many years, although he was old enough to have a son in recent years, but Han Sui's age was there, and the power was in Liangzhou, which was "more violent and strong", and the future heir was bound to not favor the younger son, but only the relatives who had the qualifications and abilities to choose from the table.

Han Chang, who had passed away early, was the most promising, but he was burdened by the notoriety of escaping from the battle back then, and he had missed many opportunities for meritorious service. As Han Sui's son-in-law, Li Biao has outstanding ability and has made many military exploits over the years, but now he has faintly overshadowed him in the limelight and has become a popular general in the army.

This made Han Chang more and more jealous in his heart, so his attitude towards Li Biao on weekdays was also to hide a knife in a smile and have bad intentions.

Li Biao had several contacts with Han Chang, and he also sensed the hostility implied in Han Chang's words and deeds.

However, this time Li Biao was not in a hurry to make peace with Han Chang, because he saw that there were others behind Han Chang, he waited a little, but he didn't expect that it was Han Sui himself who showed his face behind.

Slow and rhythmic footsteps, slowly approaching.

In the past ten years, Han Sui has grown step by step from a celebrity who was coerced by the rebels to the number one force in Liangzhou.

Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Bian Zhang, Wang Guo, and other heroes who crisscrossed Liangdi at the same time fell one after another in front of him, and at present, only he, Han Wenyue, is still standing at the top of Liangzhou Haojie as always.

However, there are gains and losses, and what he has paid for it is a huge amount of energy.

Ten years ago, Han Sui, who was still graceful and elegant, with a red face, has now climbed into wrinkles on his face, coupled with his perennial appearance and long-term enduring the blowing of the wind and sand outside the plug, which makes his whole person more vicissitudes and thin.

At the head of the city, Li Biao saw that it was Han Sui who came in person, although he didn't know why he went up to the city wall in person, but he still stepped forward respectfully and saluted Han Sui who walked slowly to the head of the city.

"Why, Boju, you're also here, haha, that's just right, just walk with me!"

After Han Sui saw Li Biao, a pleasant smile appeared on his face, for this son-in-law, Han Sui is still quite satisfied, he has enough confidence in his eyesight, and Li Biao's performance over the years just proves this.

The woman was called, Li Biao naturally would not shirk it, and immediately followed Han Chang left and right, followed by Han Sui who smiled freely, and slowly walked on the city wall.

Han Sui only looked at the guards at the head of the city for a while, and then shifted his gaze to the camp of his own soldiers and horses outside the city.

This time, there were too many Han, Hu, Qiang, and Di people and horses who followed themselves into Guanzhong, although only some of them were stationed in Wugong City, but the huge number of people and horses still could not all live in Wugong City, and those Qianghu tribes went straight to the base of the city wall and set up dense living tents.

Looking at these Qianghu and Diren tribes with different costumes and totems, Han Sui was not as worried as Li Biao, he smiled a little smugly, but then sighed and said:

"I'm old, I don't remember how many times I've entered the land of Guanzhong, but the command has gathered so many people and horses, and the army is so grand, it was still the fifth year of Chuping."

In the fifth year of the first peace, Chong Shao, Ma Yu, Liu Fan and others in Chang'an contacted Ma Teng and Liu Yan, and they planned to attack Chang'an City and destroy the Xiliang Army in Chang'an City.

At that time, Ma Teng's army, together with the men and horses sent by Yizhou and the soldiers and horses that Han Sui rushed to support, already numbered 100,000, and the soldiers and horses mobilized by Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou together reached 100,000.

It's a pity that in the battle of Bashui, a large number of Yi and Liang coalition forces were still defeated by the Western Liang army led by Li Dao, at that time there were as many as 10,000 soldiers who were beheaded on the battlefield alone, and the Yi and Liang coalition forces were defeated, and they did not dare to peep into Guanzhong half a step in the next few years.

Only after being defeated by himself later, Ma Teng, in a desperate situation, ventured into Guanzhong, in a vain attempt to beg Li Dao for acceptance.

Of course, the ill-intentioned Ma Teng did not end up with any benefits.

The autumn wind is bleak and whirring.

Han Sui, who was standing with his hands in his hands, stood on the head of the city and let out an inexplicable emotion, which attracted the attention of Han Chang and Li Piao, who were respectfully waiting on the side.

Although the battle of Bashui in the fifth year of Chuping was not a proud thing, since Han Sui had feelings, Han Chang, who was bent on currying favor with his father, hurriedly said first:

"Yes, yes, this army is huge, but it is really as the adults said, there is the grand momentum of the Liang and Yi coalition armies marching into Chang'an back then."

"However, this time is different from the past, now the Xiliang army in Guanzhong has been cannibalizing and suffering casualties, and the soldiers and horses who entered in advance on all sides are also exhausted. This time in the army, the child believes that the adults will be able to cut off the enemies and dominate the pass! ”

"Hahaha!" After listening to Han Chang's words, although he knew that he intended to meet himself, he still couldn't help but be happy, he turned around, laughed and pointed at Han Chang and said:

"You, you, if you can spend all this time on the book of archers and horsemen, I'm afraid it's not just today!"

"If the adults teach you, the children should listen to the teachings in the future, practice bow and horse diligently, be good at learning the art of war, and do their best to clear the pass for the adults!"

Seeing Han Chang's sworn appearance, Han Sui calmed down after laughing, his ravine-ravine face trembled slightly, as if he had thought of something, and turned to look at Li Biao, who had not spoken, and asked lightly:

"Boju, do you recognize Yan Xing?"
