And with what he saw and heard along the way, Yan Xing finally had a general understanding of the current situation in Liangzhou. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The land of Liangzhou is now falling into the quagmire of more and more turmoil, after the defeat of Chen Cang, Han Sui and the kingdom fought in Hanyang, Liangzhou, and Han Sui, who kept most of the soldiers and horses, fought against the kingdom where the hearts of the people were scattered, and the result was naturally self-evident.

Han Sui, who successfully took the head of the kingdom, naturally shirked all the blame for the defeat to the kingdom in a different place, and became a savior who protected the people and turned the tide.

Speaking of Yan Zhong, this is also an extraordinary character. In the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Rebellion rose and fell, and the people of the world thought that the sea was settled. However, Yan Zhong smelled the dangerous breath of the Han generals, so he abandoned the post of Xindu Ling, and deliberately went to the Han army to lobby Huangfu Song, who was also from Liangzhou and controlled the heavy army.

Yan Zhong pointed out the status quo of "the fate is not good, the right is close to Xi, under the faint master, it is difficult to live for a long time, the merit is not rewarded, the slander is sideways, if you don't plan early, you will regret it", and "the former Han Xin can't bear to have a meal, and abandon one-third of the business, the sword has been in its throat, and the party has a regretful sigh" as a lesson from the past, instigating Huangfu Song "Please call God, show the mandate of heaven, mix Liuhe, weigh the system in the south, move the treasure in Jiangxing, and push the dead Han Yu has fallen", and overthrew the Liu family together.

It's a pity that Huangfu Song, who "stays all night in the office and never forgets loyalty", is bent on being a loyal minister of the Han family, and directly rejected Yan Zhong's lobbying. Yan Zhong had no choice but to escape from Huangfu Song's military camp overnight, and returned to his hometown in Hanyang, Liangzhou, to wait and see what the world was doing.

Now that he was pushed out by Han Sui to be the head of the Liangzhou coalition army, it was in line with his ambition in the first year of Zhongping, but unfortunately he could also see that Han Sui was just using his fame to build momentum, and the father and son of the kingdom who had six counties of soldiers and horses in his hands died tragically in the position of the leader of the coalition army, not to mention him Yan Zhong?

Therefore, Yan Zhong and Han Sui are inseparable, and they are not willing to contribute to Han Sui, blindly resign and prevaricate, plus Ma Teng gathered people from Wuwei, Song Jian of Caohan, the group of thieves in Heguan, the Koji family of Linqiang, the Huang family of Jiuquan and other families did not express their support for Yan Zhong and Han Sui, and there was a rebellion in Jincheng County, and Han Sui, who had been painstakingly and lonely, had to shrink his troops back to Jincheng, first stabilize the situation in his own place, and the new leader of the Liangzhou coalition army was also hastily resolved. It was as if the coalition had already been divided.

After the split, the power of the Liangzhou coalition army was greatly reduced, and even the dangerous fortresses such as Longguan were recovered by the Han army, and the counties and counties in Hanyang and other places also raised their flags anyway, and the banner of the Han family was replanted on the land of Liangzhou. Li Ru, Dong Huang and his entourage had official documents from the government, and there were also familiar Qiang tribes along the way, plus they accompanied many fine cavalry guards, and they did not encounter much danger on the way back to Lintao, but they did not expect to arrive in Lintao, but they were attacked by unknown enemies at night.

Speaking of which, the enemy launched a night attack so easily thanks to Dong Huang, Dong Zhuo's nephew. Although he followed Dong Zhuo to practice martial arts after the death of his father Dong Zhuo, but at this time Dong Zhuo was already in charge of the soldiers and horses, guarding one side, and there was not much time to hear about his life on weekdays, coupled with Dong Zhuo's killing aura formed by years of conquest, Dong Huang was also afraid of his somewhat strange uncle, he followed Dong Zhuo's side, and his uncle did not learn much about the skills of leading troops to fight, but because of his special identity, he was treated special by people in the army, and went to the other extreme. There are even some cronies and villains who are not accustomed to doing things and only know flattery, and they are completely spoiled as an arrogant gentleman.

Because it was close to Lintao City tonight, Li Ru also knew that Dong Zhuo asked Dong Huang to return to Liangzhou with him, on the one hand, in order to keep a family member to monitor, and on the other hand, to experience Dong Huang, who has always been arrogant, so Li Ru happened not to pay special attention to the night guard arrangements tonight, and the director Dong Huang thought that he had been safe and stable all the way, and there must not be much danger.

Under Yan Xing's painstaking persuasion, he copingly asked his cronies to take people to set up a few more sentry posts on the periphery, and then returned to his tent to rest, thinking that he would have a good time when he returned to Dongjiawu Fort in Lintao tomorrow to compensate for his hard work of sleeping in the open on the way.

As the saying goes, "the top is not right, the bottom is uneven", the cronies he sent out saw that his own gentleman didn't care about this matter, and how could he be willing to do these futile things. The sentry post set up was to deal with the incident, but the accident was really very unbearable, and when the enemy did not even find out the enemy's situation, he was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and ran back alone, and when he arrived at the camp, he ran and screamed, causing a commotion among the people who were awakened.

Yan Xing knew very well that there was no fence built on the periphery of this kind of temporary camp to keep away horses, and once attacked, there was no danger to defend at all. What's more, Dong Huang also withdrew most of the night guards in the camp, and under the attack, in a hurry, coupled with the cronies who ran to call, people were naturally panicked. It is not uncommon for people to find horses, and horses to saddle up, so how can we gather people to resist the enemy together.

In addition, even the number, direction, and purpose of the incoming enemy are not clear, so that when a war starts in this way, it is like a blind man who can only deal with it blindly, and how can he not be defeated.

Yan Xing looked at the temporary camp where the figures were constantly surging in the shouts, and then at the forest trees that looked gloomy in the dark night, he weighed the current situation, gritted his teeth, sorted out the quiver behind his back, and with the knife in his hand, he strode in the direction where Dong Huang's cronies had just come, and disappeared into the dark forest in a blink of an eye.

Although there are a few delusional people such as Dong Huang and his cronies in the camp, the others are all elite men and horses who fight against the horses, not to mention that there is also a Li Ru who is known as Dong Zhuo's "think tank", under the fright of the sudden attack and shouts, chaos in the camp is inevitable, but with Li Ru's means, with the elite level of Dong Jun's horses, it is impossible to directly collapse at night.

Therefore, the most urgent task at the moment is to find out the enemy's intelligence such as the number of incoming enemies, their direction, and their purpose, and to know oneself and the enemy, so that they can survive a hundred battles and blindly gather people to defend to the death, and it is not clear whether they are going or fighting, and they have not even understood the enemy's situation.

After Yan Xing entered the forest, the pupils of his eyes immediately dilated to the extreme, he slowed down, listened to the movements around him, raised his legs between the marches to prevent him from tripping over the tangled branches under his feet and making too much noise, and casually smeared some mud on the body of the knife before continuing to sneak through the forest.
