Chapter 379: Han Sui surrendered and occupied Longxi
Jia Xu bowed down to promise, after a series of changes in the Xiliang Army, Jia Xu had to bow to Jia Rong, a martial artist, who can have a strategy that is not inferior to the literati, and occasionally can make amazing and brilliant statements, especially Jia Rong's trust in his subordinates, Jia Xu feels that this is the fundamental reason why many people are willing to die for it.
"What is Han Suishi's attitude in Hanyang County?" Jia Rong sat on the top and asked unashamedly, after years of upper-level edification, Jia Rong's temperament has begun to transform, and he is no longer the hot-blooded young man who would jump three feet high when he encountered trouble.
"Lord, Han Sui sent someone to reply a few days ago, there are many soldiers from the Qiang tribe in Han's army, and they are being discussed." Zhang Xiu bowed.
"Hanyang, Longxi, our army is determined to win, and ordered Zhang Liao and Xu Shu to pay attention to the movements of nearby counties in the Jiuquan area, how can there be so many riots in Jiuquan recently." Jia Rong pointed to the three counties of Hanyang, Longxi, and Jiuquan on the drawing.
"No!" Jia Xu secretly remembered in his heart, the intelligence of the entire Xiliang Army was pressed on him alone, it can be said that the movements of the entire Han are well understood, and the Xiliang Army will definitely unify Liangzhou in the next step and develop slowly, so the situation of the counties in Liangzhou, Jia Xu must have a thorough understanding.
In March, Chang'an was still a little cold, Han Sui's letter of surrender was transmitted to Chang'an through the fast horse, after the hundred officials heard it, the first feeling was taken for granted, with Jia Rong's proud record, such a result seemed to come a little late, the Qiang people returned to their hearts, Han Sui was bound to not be able to last long, with Han Sui's old strategy, he would definitely consider the way to retreat, and the battle with the Xiliang army was completely scared.
Han Sui's surrender was not as simple as a piece of paper, what Jia Rong needed was a stable rear, what he chose was to follow Cao Cao's example, issue a recruitment order, suppress the unconvinced princes, and let the Han be unified, at least on the surface, and he didn't think too much about the rest of the matter.
When he fought with the Xiliang army, Han Sui realized the huge difference between his army and the Xiliang army, most of Han Suijun's soldiers were soldiers of the Qiang tribe, and the team lacked basic trust between each other, and the Qiang people always thought about how to let the clansmen live a happy life, but Han Sui thought about how to get the most benefits from these Qiang people.
Defecting to the Xiliang Army, the Qiang tribe has no opinions, the Qiang people living in Jincheng County are living examples, and Han Sui became a rebel together, and no Qiang people want to live the days when they pin their heads to the waistband of their trousers, and Han Sui does not want to bear the name of a traitor, and taking refuge in the Xiliang Army has become the most Haode destination.
When Jia Rong sent the surrender document to Hanyang County, Han Sui realized that the general trend had gone, and it was better to take the opportunity to join the Xiliang army.
Han Sui's original team is still under his control, most of these people are Han Sui's henchmen for many years, and they obey Han Sui's orders more than Jia Rong, rather than this, it is better to generously transfer this gratifying person to Han Sui to take charge, when the big war comes, Han Sui has no reason to shirk.
Under the leadership of Lou Shan, the men and horses of the Qiang tribe were temporarily incorporated into the Xiliang Army, and these Qiang tribes still lived in Hanyang County, but they were treated the same as the Qiang people in Jincheng.
"After years of war in Liangzhou, the people have made up their minds, especially in Hanyang Beidi and other counties, you will work together to unify Liangzhou as soon as possible." Jia Rong's tone became a little excited.
Jia Xu Zhang Xiu and other core generals of the Xiliang Army suddenly agreed, the development of the Xiliang Army will definitely open up the territory to the present, the military strength is at its peak, the people's hearts are attached, and there is such a righteous support as the Son of Heaven behind it.
Jia Xu, who has always been calm, couldn't hide the excitement on his face, from when Jia Rong was still a small leader, step by step to the present, he saw how the Xiliang army became strong.
"What do you have to do, even if you say so." Jia Rong said.
If you listen more, you will be clear, just like the ancestor of the year, who was not as good as Zhang Liang and Xiao He, and Fan Xu, why he was able to lead these people to dominate the country.
"The lord should first issue an edict to the county guards in various places, salute first and then soldiers, and there is no need to be polite to the counties that are not attached, and the attached counties should ask for their posts in front of the Han Emperor, appease the people, and slowly try to do it." As the number one military division of the Xiliang Army, Jia Xu took the lead.
Jia Rong nodded and said, "Wenhe's words are reasonable, I don't know what Brother Zirong thinks?" ”
Zhang Li, it was this Mr. Zhang, who was dressed in white at the beginning, that allowed Jia Rong to have the prosperous Jincheng and the rising Chang'an, Zhang Li and Zhang Zhao's two brothers in the Xiliang Army played a role like Xiao He under Liu Bang, providing a strong logistics support for the Xiliang Army.
"The lord has an order, and he will go to the soup and fire in his humble position, and he will not give up his death." Zhang Libai said, although the words were short, everyone felt a spirit of doing anything for the Xiliang Army, this is the state of the officers and soldiers of the Xiliang Army, they can spare their lives for an order.
Compared with Jia Rong, they will not hesitate to choose the Xiliang Army, in other words, their allegiance is not to the royal family but to Jia Rong.
Zhang Zhao is relatively stable, Jia Rong's legends did not make him die-hard, he chose to stay in Jincheng only out of curiosity about Jia Rong, but he didn't expect it to be where he is now.
Jia Rong glanced at Zhang Zhao behind Zhang Li, and said with a smile: "Your two brothers are just like Xiao He, and our army's food and grass depend on the two of them." ”
Zhang Zhao's body was shocked when he heard this, and he dared to compare "Xiao He" with his two brothers, which made Zhang Zhao's gaze at Jia Rong more complicated.
5,000 iron cavalry, 30,000 infantry, rushed to various places under one order after another, what kind of storm will be set off in Liangzhou, the most appeared in various places is not chickens flying and dogs jumping, but a piece of tranquility, and the people welcome the arrival of the Xiliang army.
Hanyang County surrendered to Cheng, captured Longxi County Xiliang Army did not receive much resistance, the whole world was shaken, the Xiliang Army hibernated for more than a year, and now it is going to show its sharp fangs, I don't know how elite the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is as always, many princes can't help but secretly wonder why Liu Biao's assassination of Jia Rong was not successful, otherwise the world will be another pattern.
"Lord, Longxi County is too guarded to open the door to welcome the army into the city." Jia Xu said indifferently.
Jia Rong nodded and said: "As long as it is my Han people, I will treat them equally, distribute county orders, and completely control Longxi County in my hands." ”
"No!"
"Wen He, although you and I are both monarchs and ministers, we are also friends with each other, even if you have anything to say, I, Jia Rong, have also come up step by step from the bottom, many things cannot be solved by one person, where things are not done right, Wen He and a strategist can remind them a lot."
Feeling the sincerity in Jia Rong's tone, Jia Xu bowed down again, how many can be in a high position and such a lord can look at the world.
"Wherever the banner of our army goes, the counties and counties submit, but the lord should not delegate too much power, especially the military power, and the selection of officials in various places should also obey the will of the people, and those who are corrupt should be punished, so that the people can see the style of the Xiliang Army." Jia Xu said slowly.
"Wenhe, this matter is left to you, I was negligent before." Jia Rong said.
This may lead to resistance from some counties, after all, there are too few officials with clean foundations, but under the military authority of the Xiliang army, these so-called resistances seem insignificant.
The expansion speed of the Xiliang Army has made the princes of the world dumbfounded, and today the princes are in their own ways, and the Han Emperor of Chang'an is a decoration to put it bluntly, and everyone knows it in their hearts, but they don't say it on the bright side.
Jia Rong sent troops to Liangzhou, and the princes of the world wanted to see what kind of military strength the Xiliang Army had reached, but they didn't expect that where the banner of the Xiliang Army floated over, the county commander Taishou had no backbone to choose to surrender, and the county guards who had the heart to resist, but the soldiers below were bent on surrendering, and took advantage of the night to introduce the Xiliang Army into the city, and the prestige of the Xiliang Army temporarily stagnated in the battle of Dapo Xianbei.
In January, Hanyang, Longxi, and Wuwei were obtained, and the Xiliang Army did not stop there, and sent troops to the area of Jiuquan and Zhangye.
Since the Han family fell into the war, Jiuquan Zhangye Dunhuang area has been negligent in management, the county order Taishou is the highest governor there, those who do not obey orders, kill without forgiveness, although on the bright side of these three counties there is not much turmoil, there are few Han people in their hearts, and the people for the Han family, but also from the words of the old man.
If you want to dominate the world, you must have a stable rear, Jiuquan Zhangye area is the throat of the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions countries to do business, but also has the fertile land of the Hexi Corridor, so that those foreign people can continue to develop, the consequences are unimaginable, and the recovery of Jiuquan Zhangye Dunhuang three counties will also open another trade channel for the Western Liang Army......
The main battle of the Xiliang Army, its own war horses are also in constant consumption, buying horses to enrich the team is not a long-term way, and with the Hexi Corridor, these problems will be solved, you can establish your own horse farm, for the army to provide excellent war horses.
Among the three thousand iron horsemen, Jia Rong marched towards the Hexi Corridor surrounded by a thousand blood guards, and the rear was stable, and he could only rest assured if he did it himself.
Jia Xu, Zhang Li and others were naturally reluctant to Jia Rong to go to Jiuquan County in person, the previous assassination of Liu Biao had already made their hearts unable to withstand stimulation, and the situation in Jiuquan was not stable.
However, he didn't take the advice of the strategist and official to heart at all, and promised verbally, but privately prepared to go to Jiuquan.
At this time, all the burden fell on Zhao Yun, the commander of the pro-guard army, and Jia Rong couldn't be allowed to suffer any damage, otherwise Zhao Yun would wait to come back and be punished.
No matter where Jia Rong goes, a thousand blood guards will follow him closely, unlike the interior of the Han Dynasty, Xianlian Pavilion does not have a branch in Jiuquan County, Zhangye County and Dunhuang County, and the source of intelligence can only rely on scouts and lone wolves.
In order to ensure Jia Rong's safety, the lone wolf soldiers dispatched a full eighty people, led by Zhang Xiu himself.
