"Not bad. Zhang Liao sneered www.biquge.info "Let's deal with him for the time being, and see what they have to do."

Guo Jia groaned: "The lord broke the Hugh Tu Hu, the southern court will be jealous, most of them will be connected with the Xianbei or Qiang people, the previous plan of our discord, the east and west Xianbei nervous confrontation, take care of themselves, in this way, the Qiang people are likely to be involved, especially the Qiang people in Xihe and Shangjun, all in the territory of the state, the same enemy."

"Qiang people......" Zhang Liao said lightly: "This is a problem that must be solved sooner or later."

Nine counties of the state, most of them are occupied by the Xiongnu, but there is a county that is completely controlled by the Qiang people, which is located in the west of the Yellow River, the upper county within the Hetao, the first year of Zhongping Qiang Hu plundered the upper county, the county of the upper county was moved to Luoyang, belongs to the rule of Qiao, and the land of the upper county was completely reduced to the Hu land.

In addition to Shangjun, there are also two counties occupied by the Qiang people in the adjacent Xihe County. Therefore, Cui Jun is very miserable, and he, the Taishou of Xihe, can control only a few counties in the south, and all the north is controlled by the Xiongnu and Qiang.

The Qiang people are the biggest border trouble in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and their strength far exceeds that of the Xiongnu, just from the number, it can be seen that the Xiongnu are only hundreds of thousands, while the Qiang people have 14 million people, equivalent to one-fifth of the Han people!

This is a strong enemy, Zhang Liao didn't want to confront the Qiang people so early, but now he has to face it.

At this time, Cui Jun on the side said: "When the lord did not arrive in the state, the Han people in the state suffered from Hu troubles, were bullied by the Hu people, lost their family property, lost their wives and daughters, lost their lives, and were always uneasy, and the family cried. If it fails, it will be a comeback, and it will also lose its reputation. ”

Zhang Liao nodded, this is indeed not good to be a state pastor, at the beginning Li Dao Guo Yan showed that he was not a good state pastor, it is really a long way to go, and it is difficult to step by step, if it were not for the fact that his subordinates are all top generals and strategists, and have developed sharp weapons such as crossbows and thunderbolts, can they defeat Hugh Tu and sit firmly in the state.

He turned his head and asked Guo Jia: "If the Qiang people unite with Nanting, what is Fengxiao's countermeasure?"

Guo Jia smiled and said: "If the Qiang people move, it will be easy."

……

At the end of September of the third year of the first peace, the Southern Xiongnu royal court, which was discussing peace with the pastor of the state, suddenly launched a rebellion, and there were many riots among the large and small Xiongnu tribes in the counties of the state.

The county guards quickly pacified and pacified, only Xihe and Shangjun gathered nearly 100,000 Xiongnu troops, and the momentum was violent, and even the Gaoshun army had to go north to Wuyuan and Yunzhong County.

There are also Shangjun Shen Di Qiang, Xihe Qian Qiang, and Liangzhou Beidi County adjacent to Shangjun Xianling Qiang followed the Nanting rebellion and crossed the Yellow River, they crossed the Yellow River and joined forces with the Southern Xiongnu, intending to attack Taiyuan and other counties in Bingzhou.

The rebellious Xiongnu and the Qiang people numbered 1230,000, and the newly stabilized state fell into turmoil again.

The rebels were divided into three routes, one to the north to attack Yunzhong, Wuyuan and Shuofang, one to the east to attack Dingxiang, Yanmen and Taiyuan, and one to the south to attack the county town south of the West River, and intended to cross the Luliang Mountains to flank Taiyuan.

However, as soon as the Xiongnu and Qiang rebels moved, they found themselves unable to move an inch, and were blocked by Gao Shun and Zhao Yun in the Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Shuofang lines to the north, and blocked by the army of Dian Wei in the Luliang Mountains to the east, and Zhang He's soldiers and horses to the south.

Zhang Liao had long prevented the rebellion in Nanting, several armies at the beginning of their rebellion, they quickly seized their main road to all sides, the terrain of Xihe County happened to be the east stretching Luliang Mountain, the northwest near the deep valley of the Yellow River, Zhang Liao took the lead, seized the main road, for a time with less to control more, tightly locked the Xiongnu and Qiang people in the narrow Xihe County.

But after all, there were no passes in the main roads, and under the frantic onslaught of countless Xiongnu and Qiang people, the two sides fell into a fierce fight.

The Xiongnu and Qiang people have always been brave and fierce, in addition to equipment, the physique is stronger than the Han people, the strength of this battle is two to one, but also thanks to Zhang Liao's well-trained soldiers, strict military discipline, otherwise it would have been defeated.

Luliang Mountain stretches for more than 800 miles from north to south, Yunzhong Mountain in the north reaches Yanmen and Hengshan Mountain, Nanyang Mountain in the middle separates Hexi and Taiyuan, and Longmen Mountain in the south reaches Hedong County.

The most fierce attack of the Xiongnu and the Qiang people is the area of Nanyang Mountain and Yunzhong Mountain, especially the area of Nanyang Mountain, which is the main passage from Xihe to Taiyuan, and the Xiongnu and Qiang people gathered 50,000 horses in several main roads here, and the onslaught of wave after wave is tireless.

"Kill! Kill the Governor of the Pastor!"

In front of a hilltop road in Nanyang Mountain, the Hun Zuo General and two 10,000 cavalry commanders with thousands of elite soldiers began to charge again.

"And the state pastor! Dare you fight me!" General Nanting Zuo stared at Zhang Liao, who was standing in front of the mountain, and roared.

There are four mountain passes within a hundred miles, this one mountain pass they gathered 20,000 people, attacked for three days, Zuo Daduwei, the pious race of the marshal were killed successively, and the Xiongnu and Qiang people under their hands were killed and wounded countless times, this mountain pass was full of corpses, and every time they attacked, they had to remove the piled corpses to rush up.

With such heavy casualties, even the arrows were exhausted, but this mountain pass was still difficult to cross, and the soldiers and horses of the state herd were still not in a hurry, and they were as steady as a mountain.

General Zuo looked around the left and right, the Qiang people had begun to slack off, hiding behind, and the Huns under his command were also exhausted, without their previous sharpness, and their food and grass were also poor.

At this time, General Zuo had no hope of breaking through this mountain pass, and in desperation, he looked at the figure under the flag on the mountain pass, and roared, wanting to challenge.

That figure had previously made a surprise attack during the fierce battle, killing Zuo Dadu Lieutenant and the Qiang people's handsome, and then he knew the origin of that figure, and it was the general of Zhengbei and Zhang Liao!

Therefore, General Zuo held on to the last glimmer of hope and singled out the state pastor, as long as he could kill the state pastor, the loss of these three days would be worth it.

The narrow mountain pass could only accommodate a few thousand men to fight, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses of the Xiongnu could not be used at all, so they could only attack in batches in waves.

At the mountain pass, under the banner of General Zhengbei, Zhang Liao watched the battle situation, preparing to deal with another onslaught of the enemy.

His robe was stained with blood, and several times in the past three days, the Huns' offensive was too strong, and he personally led his guards to rush back and forth a few times, killing several of the enemy's generals, so that the enemy's offensive was dispersed.

Zhang Liao's side is Guo Jia, Guo Jia has been practicing animal boxing with Zhang Liao for the past two years, and now his body is very strong, and he basically follows the army in every battle.

In the valley not far behind the mountain pass are thousands of young men and medical teams, young men are constantly carrying the seriously wounded off the battlefield, and the medical team is responsible for treating the wounded.

This is Zhang Liao's combat style that is very different from others, and the battle must have a medical team as a logistics, and not give up any wounded, which is not only an emphasis on life, which is conducive to cohesion of morale and military spirit, but also can train veterans of a hundred battles, and those soldiers who have been injured and then go to the battlefield are the most powerful soldiers.

Similarly, stretchers and high-concentration liquor played a vital role in treating the wounded, otherwise it would have been extremely difficult to treat the wounded, because most of the arrows used by the Xiongnu were stained with horse manure and were easily infected.

Zhang Liao was observing the battlefield when he suddenly saw a Hun general come out, and then invited him to fight in stiff Chinese.

He couldn't help but smile, according to his observations in the past few days, this enemy general should be the highest-ranking general in this group of enemies.

Guo Jia saw Zhang Liao's intention to move, and hurriedly dissuaded: "The lord must not go into battle, he must prevent the enemy from cheating, and the body of ten thousand gold must not be easily dangerous, it is really unwise!"
