Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Fierce History of Liangzhou
Luoyang has entered spring, the spring breeze does not pass the Yumen Pass, and in many places in Liangzhou, you can also see the spring color, but compared with the Central Plains, the season does not seem to be in the same season at all. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The terrain of Liangzhou is flat and vast, it is the largest accumulation plain in Hexi, and the Liangzhou Zhen of the Western Han Dynasty Yangxiong says, "Every time in the king of Ji, often lose the convulsions." God is restless, and he orders the man to be cold. ”
Zhou is the land of Yongzhou, before the Spring and Autumn Period, it was occupied by Xirong, and Qin was the grazing land of the Yue family.
Since ancient times, it has been a rich place of "crowded mulberry thick", an important commercial port in the northwest of China where "cars and horses are intertwined, and the sun is blowing", a key node of the Jade Silk Road, and a golden node city in the ********.
Liangzhou was known as Wuwei and Yongzhou in ancient times, located on the border of Han and Qiang, and the people were fierce and not afraid of death. Since ancient times, the right fine horse of Longzhou has been rampant in the world, and it is known as "Liangzhou horse, rampant in the world".
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the third year of Yuanshuo, changed Yongzhou to Liangzhou, with its gold line, the land is cold. Liangzhou got its name from this.
Hou Huo went to defeat the Xiongnu, in order to show the martial arts and military might of the Han Empire, the Western Han government placed Wuwei County in the territory of the former Xiutu King, and Wuwei got its name from this.
The Hexi Corridor was incorporated into the territory of the Western Han Dynasty, and the four counties of Wuwei, Jiuquan, Zhangye and Dunhuang were placed behind. Wuwei County is subordinate to the Liangzhou Thorn History Department, leading 10 counties such as Guzang and Zhangye, and taking Guzang as the governing place.
I once thought that Liangzhou would be very desolate, but Huang Zhong never thought that it would be desolate.
Although he has never farmed himself, after all, Nanyang is also a very developed agricultural area.
According to his Huang Zhong's vision, this place should not be so difficult, the land is fertile, and the terrain is simply a flat river compared to his hometown, what a good cultivated land.
Liu Hong's combination punch made Liangzhou Sanming, the once largest local warlord, collapse.
first let Duan Ying enter Beijing, and became a lieutenant in such a high position.
As everyone knows, the remote places of Liangzhou are just like this in the eyes of the people of the Central Plains, and they feel that they can get along in the frontier, but they are just taking advantage of the geographical relationship, and it may be better to go by themselves.
Seeing that he was being excluded, Duan Ying only had to cooperate with a powerful eunuch group to stabilize his position.
It's a pity that he is not the eunuch's immediate family, and the nature of the alliance is also to use and be used, and when the eunuch group is stable, he will run out immediately, and Duan Ying is so ashamed that he committed suicide in prison.
Huangfu Song was also transferred out of his hometown to take over the mess left by Yuan Shao, and the strength of some small local warlords was not to be worried.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Zhang Wen to gain a firm foothold here, even if he was the identity of the Great Si Nong.
Nanyang Zhang family and Zhending Zhao family, because of Zhang Yun's affairs, have become inextricable mortal enemies, and they are the same in both ways.
Even if Huang Zhong was also from Nanyang, when he arrived, Zhang Wen found an excuse and slipped out, and he has not seen anyone so far.
The people here are fierce, although there is a banner of Liangzhou Thorn Shi Huang all the way, from time to time you will encounter and I don't know whether it is the Qiang people or someone who instigates the Qiang people to attack.
They were very disappointed, Huang Zhong had already trained more than 300 personal soldiers in the past few months, all of them like wolves and tigers.
Every time, we should be vigilant in advance not to fight too many battles on the road to the north, everyone has long been accustomed to the rhythm of war.
When they reached Guzang, Huang Zhong and his entourage only lost twenty or thirty auxiliary soldiers, and none of the regular soldiers were broken.
"You say he's still with his family?" More than ten miles outside the city, in a simple tent, the leader of the Qiang people was asking his subordinates.
"Yes, Chief." Na Xiaozuo still had injuries on his body: "However, our combat effectiveness has never been encountered before, and the three thousand people you sent out were wiped out by him all the way on the way." ”
"If it weren't for the fast running of the slaves, they would have become dead souls like them at this moment."
"Stand down!" The leader rubbed his aching temples.
"Chief, there are not many troops in Guzang City, why not surround the city?" One of the generals below shouted.
"No!" A man who looked like a master stood up: "Chief, even if Zhang Wen has a mortal enmity with him, we can't hear about it, in case he leads his troops to kill him from behind when he is attacking the city, then we will suffer from the enemy." ”
To be the leader of a tribe, especially if he still has the strength to besiege Guzang, the power of this leader is not covered in the entire Qiang tribe.
"Have all the scouts been sent out?" The leader asked, noncommittal, turning his head.
"It has already been sent out," a general stood up: "Chief, give the order, we are all waiting for the day when you ascend the throne." ”
"What is the scope of your scouts?" The leader was still a little uneasy.
"As long as there is any wind and grass in the Han army within fifty miles, we can know immediately." The general said confidently just now: "After all, this is our hometown, a native of the place, and no Han is more familiar with the terrain than us." ”
"Mr. Dong, let's go around!" The leader made up his mind: "Didn't Zhang Wen say it? As long as we knock Gu Zang down, he will secretly arrange a place for us to graze, and give us a city as compensation. ”
Mr. Dong sighed and did not speak. After all, Huang Zhong's prestige in northern Xinjiang has not spread here.
Maybe it's the first instinct, Mr. Dong always feels that this new assassin is a bit tricky, and it is not easy to knock down the city.
Although the Qiang people are not as powerful as the Xiongnu Xianbei in the north, their methods of war are almost the same, and the cavalry of all colors is really reluctant to attack the city and plunder the pond.
Here, Huang Zhong had just settled down in Guzang City, and saw a few crooked melons and cracked dates, and none of the big people were gone.
At this time, he suddenly received the news of the siege of the Qiang people, but he did not appear to be flustered.
Their main direction of attack was the West Gate, and there was no doubt that it was the only place where the Qiang people were more close.
If you can't beat it, you can take advantage of the situation and flee back.
"Listen to the history of the bird's thorn, obediently give up Guzang City, and go to the territory of the Han people by himself." Under the city, the Qiang people rode horses and shouted loudly from time to time.
"Your leaders come out and answer!" Huang Zhong was angry and dantian, and his voice was rolling, and the soldiers on both sides could hear it.
Secretly, he had already drawn an arrow and arranged it for his subordinates, as long as his arrow was fired, regardless of whether the leader was dead or alive, he would immediately charge into battle with his own soldiers.
"Listen to the history of the Wu Na Thorn, those who know the times are Junjie!" The leader roared so loudly that his throat was about to break: "This place has been the hometown of our Qiang people since ancient times. ”
He said viciously: "Otherwise, if you break through the city, there will be no Han people left in the city!" ”
While the leader was in full swing, an arrow struck him like lightning on his forehead, and he fell from his horse.
Before the Qiang people could react, Huang Zhong took his own soldiers and took the lead, and the west gate opened wide and flew out from inside. (To be continued.) )
