Chapter 7: Kill Everything
It has been a day since Ma Teng and Han Sui sent troops, and Guo Jia has been receiving reports from the front of the camp in the city, and he is ready to fight at any time.
Guo Ye, who got up early every morning, ran several laps around the barracks and school grounds, doing push-ups, sit-ups, frog jumps and other exercises, all of which Guo Jia would do when he was idle in the house.
After playing a set of boxing in style, Guo Ye came to the side of the school field, took the handkerchief handed by Jia Xu and thanked him, and sat next to Jia Xu while wiping his sweat.
"Huh, huh, sir, you said that the world is chasing fame and fortune, Li Dao Guo Yan is a traitor, whoever can defeat them is a hero of the Han Dynasty, why doesn't my father want this fame?"
Jia Xu said lightly: "Name, there are false names and real names. Li Dao Guo Yan was punished, of course, it is a credit, but this credit depends on whom, the Son of Heaven is in name only, what can he do if he has merit? It is still difficult for the Son of Heaven to protect himself, so ask him for merit and reward, hehe. The eldest prince, the ignorant people will fight for a false name, and they will never die. Your father is a smart man, so he doesn't want to be famous, he has already reaped real profits, and his fame is false, so let's give it to others. ”
Because Guo Ye was still young, Jia Xu didn't say much, Guo Jia didn't personally kill Li Dao and Guo Yan, but let Ma Teng Han go, there were too many mysteries in it.
Guo Jia wants the land of three auxiliaries, and he has already succeeded, so why bother to lose his soldiers?
Even if Li Dao Guo Yan is a defeated soldier, but after the raid of Yinling Flying Cavalry, he must be cautious on the way back to Chang'an, Ma Teng Han then thinks that the two thieves are an army that is self-defeating without a fight, but there is only one way left to go, Li Dao Guo Yan will sit and wait to die?
Guo Jia sent troops in the name of hoeing and exterminating thieves for the Han Dynasty, and after exterminating Li Dao and Guo Yan, did he ignore the Son of Heaven? Let Ma Teng Han then take the credit, push them to the position of heroes, and let them deal with the Son of Heaven.
Who do the ambitious people among the Kwantung princes hate the most now? Whoever exterminates Li Dao and Guo Yan, they will hate whomever they want, Guo Jia will definitely not be able to leave the relationship, but this hatred must also be divided between Ma Teng and Han Sui.
Ma Teng Han then led his army from afar, and he had to go out to fight the thieves, and after making meritorious service, he went east, is there a guarantee of grain and grass supply? The longer they stay in Guanzhong, the worse it will be for them, and they will ask Guo Jia for alms in the future.
and so on, too many factors are contained in Guo Jia's seemingly simple and even loss-making moves.
In war, we must not only look at the immediate gains and losses, but also see far and accurately, and the ability to control the situation is not possessed by everyone.
"Envoy, you've made a wonderful move. Seeing that the situation in Guanzhong was about to end with the momentum of Jun Thunder, he didn't expect that after this step, the overall situation would be murderous again, and the smoke would rise again, but how would Jun treat the Son of Heaven? ”
Jia Xu had to admit that at first he only thought that Guo Jia wanted to take Ma Teng Han Sui to consume them, deter them, and use some superficial discord tactics to deal with them, but now, Jia Xu found that he was wrong, Guo Jia had actually shifted his strategic focus to Liangzhou from now on, laying the groundwork for laying the groundwork for Xiliang.
Li Dao Guo Yan, who returned from the fiasco of Sizhou, really didn't expect that there was a problem in their rear, so Gan Ning easily succeeded in robbing the camp at night.
But there is only one way left to fight back, Li Dao Guo Yan has been sounded the alarm, and on the way back to Chang'an, scouts were constantly sent to inquire about the news, and Ma Teng and Han Sui led the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to outflank their news, the two were not unaware, but they had no way to retreat, and they could only kill back to Chang'an.
Ma Teng from the south, Han Sui from the east, both sides of the attack Li Dao Guo Yan, thought that the surprise attack could be successful, but planted a heel, Li Dao Guo Yan, who had been prepared, saw the old opponent, set up a formation, and fought on the road.
The surprise tactics failed, although Ma Teng Han Sui had the advantage, Li Dao Guo Yan fought and retreated, but it also made Ma Teng Han Sui pay a lot of price.
Li Dao and Guo Yan, who were originally only a short distance away from Chang'an, fought inseparably with Ma Teng and Han Sui, and it took two days to retreat to the border of Chang'an.
The sky was sunny and sunny, but the sound of killing on the ground shook the sky, and there was a scuffle.
Riding a horse and leading the cavalry to flee to Chang'an, Li Dao Guo Yan suddenly found that the road not far from Chang'an had a long line of rejecting the horse gun, and immediately stopped the horse, and the troops behind him were being chased and killed.
Isn't the army in the direction of Chang'an Guo Jia's Taiping Army?
Since even Guo Jia is here, Li Dao and Guo Yan know that the general trend has gone!
Ma Chao, who led the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to chase all the way, took the lead, holding the tiger's head Zhan golden spear, with a hideous face, shouting and shouting that the cavalry under his command accelerated the charge.
Ma Chao's heavily armored Xiliang Iron Cavalry was armed with a spear, and when he saw the enemy enter the firing range, he threw it away, unstoppable.
Han Sui gritted his teeth and led the army to charge, chasing Li Dao Guo Yan from behind, this time he lost 5,000 soldiers, Ma Teng lost 4,000 soldiers, all of them are incomparable to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry!
Li Dao and Guo Yan had less than 5,000 troops left and fled all the way, but they were never captured and killed by Han Sui and Ma Teng, which made Han Sui angry.
There are chasing soldiers in the back, there is a strong enemy in front, Li Dao Guo Yan is greedy for life and afraid of death, turns over and dismounts the horse and discards the weapon and runs to the front to reject the horse gun, both kneels on the ground, kowtow and surrender.
As soon as the two of them took the lead, the thousands of soldiers who followed them also followed suit, ran to the rejection of the horse and the gun, knelt behind Li Dao Guo Yan, and begged to surrender.
Han Sui Ma Teng's Xiliang Iron Cavalry caught up from behind, and when he saw Li Dao and Guo Yan surrendering to Guo Jia's army with the remnants, he was so angry that his head was dizzy, and the evil fire was running wildly, as if there was a vicious qi pressing on his chest and he couldn't vent it.
After rejecting the horse and gun, there were 10,000 archers led by Zhang Liao and 10,000 foot soldiers led by Xu Chu Dianwei, and Guo Jia was quite surprised when he rode on the horse.
Looking at the generals led by the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Guo Jia wanted to ask them: Did I say that if you attack from the east and south, you really won't divide your troops and horses to force Li Dao and Guo Yan to Weishui?
Why did you send them both to me again?
Removing the horse rejecting gun, Guo Jia led the army forward, the archers took the lead, Xu Chu led the army to seize the weapons and armor of the surrenderers first, and then waited for Guo Jia to fall.
"Envoy, envoy, spare our lives, we are willing to surrender, and from now on we will serve the envoy."
Li Wei and Guo Yan wept bitterly and begged towards Guo Jia, kowtowing to Guo Jia in fear.
Riding a horse in front of them, Guo Jia carefully looked at Li Dao and Guo Yan, who had no unusual appearance, just ordinary rough men.
Guo Jianeng sat on the Yizhou pastor, but also thanks to the blessing of the two in front of him, without them leading the army to attack Chang'an and kill Wang Yun's family to control the court, Guo Jia would not have been able to become a Hanchen in name.
The two parties have never met, but they have dealt with each other a lot.
Even, Guo Jia was blackmailed by them.
These are all small things, and on another occasion, Guo Jia laughed.
But now, not only the soldiers of the Taiping Army behind him are paying attention to Guo Jia, but even Ma Teng Han Sui is slowly riding towards this side.
Li Dao Guo Yan, can you forgive?
No!
Can their men surrender?
No!
Because what they have done in the past is intolerable, and there must be a bottom line for recruiting surrender and rebellion, if it is true that the most heinous people can make meritorious service and atone for their sins, then can every person who is full of evil can use the way of joining the army to escape sanctions?
There are countless people who resent Li Dao Guo Yan, and there are countless people who resent their soldiers, whether it is from the righteousness or from the hearts of the people, they will die!
"Envoy, please remember the past friendship, spare our lives, be a cow and a horse, and never complain." Guo Yan looked dirty, kowtowed and buried his face in the grass.
Friendship?
Guo Jia was amused in his heart, but his face was indifferent.
"Wang Yun has refused your begging, and today, I also refuse."
After finishing speaking, Guo Jiace turned around and went back, and at the same time gave Zhang Liao another order.
"Kill them all, put the head of Li Dao Guo Yan into a box for me and give it to the Son of Heaven."
Li Dao, Guo Yan and other thousands of soldiers who begged to surrender were shocked, and when they still wanted to rise up to survive, arrows rained down like locusts.
Puff puff puff...... Those who stood up and wanted to resist fell down one after another, and those who fell to the ground and trembled all over failed to escape their lives under the knife of Xu Chu's soldiers.
Rivers of blood flowed and corpses littered the ground.
Han Sui Ma Teng led the army to join Guo Jia, and the two of them had heavy faces and some unpleasant feelings.
They worked hard, but the credit for killing Li Dao and Guo Yan still fell into the hands of Guo Jia.
The two heads were put into the box, and after Guo Jia took it from Zhang Liao's hand, he came to Ma Teng, didn't look at Han Sui, and said: "This credit belongs to the two generals, or should you present it to the Son of Heaven when you personally meet the Son of Heaven." ”
Although Guo Jia said that there were two generals, the box was given to Ma Teng, and he didn't even look at Han Sui, which made it difficult for Han Sui to accept, but he couldn't use this to make trouble, right?
Ma Teng's eyes showed gratitude, and after a few words, he accepted the gift from Guo Jia with satisfaction, and turned around to hand the box to Ma Chao.
"Two generals, why don't we set off tomorrow and go to meet the Son of Heaven together, the two thieves have been ambushed, and we can send good news to the Son of Heaven."
Guo Jiakou's gentle proposal was responded to by Ma Teng, and Han Sui saw that the matter had come to this point, whether it was merit or hard work, he had to go to see the Son of Heaven to ask for a reward.
On the question of how many people to bring to see the Son of Heaven, after Han Sui lost 5,000 soldiers and horses, there were only 30,000 left, and Ma Teng only had 20,000 left, Han Sui wanted to take them all, Ma Teng only wanted to bring 3,000, Guo Jia persuaded Ma Teng to bring all the soldiers and horses better, after all, there was a Zhang Ji who did not ambush him, and he was careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years, Guo Jia himself was also ready to bring 30,000 soldiers to go, and Ma Teng finally decided to take all the soldiers and horses to meet the Son of Heaven.
The task of cleaning up the battlefield, Guo Jia generously took it on himself.
When Guo Jia held a celebration banquet for Ma Teng Han Sui in the Chang'an camp, Fa Zheng came to Ganning's camp with the clothes of Li Dao and Guo Yan's fallen soldiers.
Yinling Feiqi all changed into the clothes of the soldiers under the command of Li Dao Guo Yan, and quietly left Chang'an at night and headed east.
Guo Jia, who had been constantly sending scout cavalry to investigate the situation in the east, had already received the news that King Zuo Xian had led his army to advance into Guanzhong before killing Li Dao and Guo Yan.
