Chapter 228: You didn't know that the Han Dynasty Ban Dingyuan was far away from the Western Regions
As the more than 1,000 rabble rode far south, the people of Dehan who were supporting each other at the city gate watched their relatives leave with complicated eyes.
The people of Seoul would never have imagined that after they welcomed the arrival of Fuquan, the "dragon" who had pacified the chaos in Banyu, Fuquan would rush to the battlefield with their fathers, sons and brothers, but they had to obey and accept the management of the officials.
On the one hand, the people do not fight with the officials, and the people who are recruited are all registered citizens of the Han family, can those who are conscripted escape these conscriptions? If they don't obey, they can run away, and can their relatives at home run? On the other hand, if the barbarians are really as the government said, they may rebel again, and for the sake of the peace of Shu and the survival of the hometown fathers, these conscripts can only stay away.
The morning light was brilliant, shining on the big banner of "Han" that was going farther and farther ahead, it was extremely dazzling, but in the eyes of these people, there was an indescribable expectation, they hoped that the banner would never fall, and it would be unscathed.
Langzhong County is very close to the distance of Hancheng, a single trip, it takes about a day to hurry up, and it takes half a day to ride a mountain horse in Shudi. However, it is obvious that there are more than 1,000 people under Fu Quan, and nearly 100 people have horses to ride, including more than a dozen dragged mules, in order to disguise Sheng Bing, pretending to be cavalry, there are more than 1,000 infantry in the team at this time, and the speed of this force can be imagined.
At night, Fuquan chose a mountain to rest, and continued to rush on the second day, only then did he reach the boundary of Langzhong County, and at this time there were dozens more people in this army. They are all mountain hunters and woodcutters who bumped into Fuquan's army on the road, and they were valued by Fuquan for their physical fitness, after all, these are also considered to be strong, and they grew up in the mountains and forests since childhood, and they are also excellent candidates for soldiers.
Anyway, now Fuquan's team, except for Guan Yu, his henchmen and generals, is basically a rabble, and there are not a few people who change the overall quality of the army, so they don't ask for their consent, they go directly out of the official government, and pull Zhuang Ding to bring them to the team.
In the camp of the Ban Yu Barbarians, Du Kang was walking anxiously in his camp tent, and at the same time, in the camp tent, there were three Ban Yu barbarians, they were all the same as Du Kang, and they were still thinking about the leader of the Ban Yu Barbarian Qu Marshal who was treacherous in their hearts, and at this moment they were waiting for the news from the scouts they had sent.
Although the barbarian camp has clearly not allowed the barbarians to go out, it is okay to do things like scout spies, even if there are many spies dispatched, there are orders from various commanders, and the barbarians guarding the camp can only let them go. Therefore, after Qin Mi entered the barbarian camp yesterday, he shocked all the Qu Shuai of the Ban Yu Barbarians, saying that after the Han army came, these Qu Shuai hurriedly sent many cronies to inquire about the news, and all of a sudden, the entire barbarian camp was sent out with hundreds of people.
Suddenly, there was a sound of scattered footsteps outside the tent, and then I saw that the curtain of the tent was lifted, and then a barbarian covered in sweat ran in, and hurriedly saluted a few people, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Du Kang.
I saw Du Kang stop it again, and said anxiously: "Is the Han Dynasty army coming?" How many people came? Where are you now? ”
The barbarian replied: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have searched all the twenty miles around the camp, but I have not seen any trace of the Han army. ”
What the? The Han army was not found?
Several people in the tent were shocked, how could it not be, could it be that the people of the Han Dynasty knew magic and could not hide themselves? Subconsciously, several of them looked at each other, trying to find a trace of an answer in each other's eyes.
"Can you find out? Nothing missing? Du Kang asked again.
"My lord, absolutely not, there is no Han army in the twenty miles around the camp."
Du Kang asked a few more questions about the situation, and then let the barbarian go down, but he did not speak immediately, but returned to the top and sat down, thinking quietly, and waiting for the others at the same time.
Soon, Du Kang was in his camp tent, and he met with more than a dozen scouts, he himself sent out three, and the other three barbarians in his camp Qu Shuai also sent out a few, so there are many spies who came to report the news today.
Swinging the last person out, Du Kang frowned, constantly reflecting on the news he had received at that time, the message from these dozen people was the same, and he did not find that the Han army was stationed nearby. He also got the news of the scouts who went to the vicinity of Langzhong County to inquire about the news, and there was no news of the assembly of the Han army in Langzhong County, and there was no trace of other troops in the city except for the more than 2,000 people recruited by the county to assemble and train.
So many scouts got the news, and some of them also asked about the scouts who were sent out by the other barbarian Qu Shuai leaders on the road, and all of them found no trace of the Han Chinese. Some people even ran to explore thirty miles outside the camp tent, but still did not find any shadow of the Han army.
If one or two scouts did not find any trace of the Han army, it is very much more comparable to someone being lazy and did not investigate seriously, but if a dozen people said so, then the news that the Han army was not around the camp can only be true. And if it is true, then there is only one truth of the matter, that is, they all fell for the nonsense lies of the Han Qin Mi, and there was no so-called Han army around the camp at all, all of which were deliberately scared by the Han people.
Thinking about this, a hint of enlightenment appeared in Du Kang's mind, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the Han people are nothing more than that, they will only play tricks, see how he makes the Han people suffer again this time, as long as the barbarians under his control, with the weakened strength of the counties of Ba County, it is not impossible for him to attack Ba County to govern Jiangzhou again.
Thinking so in his heart, the treasury then turned his head to look at the other Qu Shuai, looked at them a few times, looked at them with the same expressions as himself, and did not get the news before the apprehension, and hurriedly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Han people are cunning, we can't let that Qin Mi delay time anymore, we have to quickly control the soldiers and horses in the clan." ”
"Good! Let's go, convene the council again, and this time we must take down the soldiers and horses in the clan. ”
"Yes, too! Walk! ”
The two commanders on the opposite side took turns to make peace, since the Han people did not have an army here at all, what were they afraid of, first control the soldiers and horses of the clan, and then no matter which city in Ba County was attacked, it would be very beneficial to them. And this news is not only known to them, I believe that the other leaders of Qu Shuai who sent spies also know this news, once there is no Han army to suppress it, can't they still dominate the meeting?
"That being the case, go!" Seeing that the two Qu Shuai agreed, Du Kang nodded, and after speaking, he wanted to leave the camp first and go to the liaison person to hold an intra-clan meeting.
It's just that another Qu Shuai, who has not spoken for a long time, said: "Wait! ”
Several people were surprised when they heard this, Du Kang retracted his foot, and a trace of anger arose, thinking that this Qu Shuai had retreated, and he didn't want to be anti-Han, so he said in an unkind tone: "What? Do you want to surrender to Hanhu? In his opinion, the people who prevented him from convening an intra-clan meeting at this time and integrating the soldiers and horses of the clan to resist the Han Dynasty were all people who were going against him and were preparing to surrender to the Han Dynasty from now on, so of course he would be angry.
"Definitely!" That Qu Shuai replied.
"Why then?"
"Don't you know that the Han Dynasty Ban Dingyuan made the Western Regions? Today, we can also learn from the Han people! ”
