Chapter 80: Secret Letter
Hearing that Guo Huai was still alive, Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
Xiahou Ba was extremely excited, Yang Zheng's meritorious service was also equivalent to his meritorious service.
If it weren't for himself and Deng Zhong to stop him, Jiang Wei would calmly clean up the battlefield, and Xiahou Ba and Guo Huai would have to shed their skin if they didn't die.
Thinking of Deng Zhong, I don't know what happened to him.
This victory was somewhat reluctant, and the Wei army, including the casualties of the Qiang people, should be far greater than the Shu army.
If it weren't for Deng Zhong to withstand the attack of the Hubu Army head-on, he wouldn't have much chance.
The Shu army gave Yang Zheng the feeling that he didn't want to fight to the death.
By the afternoon, the casualties of the various armies were counted.
Xiahou Ba was the worst, besieged for days, no one rescued, the last battle barely saw hope, but it was a trap, 1,700 casualties before and after, and most of the 3,000 elites went to the time.
The second was Deng Zhong, half of the 2,000 foot soldiers suffered casualties.
In the cold weapon war, one-fifth of the casualties were in danger of the collapse of the whole army, but Deng Zhongjun held it up.
More than 700 Qiang people under Yang Zheng's command were directly killed, and almost all of those who survived were injured.
There are fewer and fewer veterans in the Wuwei Battalion, and there were more than 400 people at the beginning, but now there are only 243 people left.
Yang Zheng's heart was dripping blood.
After all, there are some things that are difficult to replenish.
The veterans have experienced the most brutal bloody battles, with tenacious temperament, high morale, and tenacious will, and the most rare thing is to have a heart with Yang Zheng, and if you lose one, you will lose one.
The one with the smallest casualties was Guo Huai, and the general was the general, who almost participated in most of the wars against Shu, and he knew at a glance how much combat power the Hubu Army had.
Yesterday, when he saw that the Shu army abandoned the camp without a fight, he was vigilant and ordered the forward to be vigilant.
Together, quickly withdraw from the battlefield.
The casualties were only more than 300.
Of the more than 2,000 corpses left by the Shu army, the wounded were all taken away by them.
Compared to the Battle of Luogu, it is also a victory now.
The land of Yongliang needs to boost morale.
Guo Huai is very politically minded and hypes it up, and Yang Zheng and Deng Zhong are among the awards.
Xiahouba was trapped for many days, resentful that Guo Huai would not be saved when he saw death, and now he was burned again, so he naturally would not go to Guo Huai's celebration banquet.
If the boss doesn't go, Yang Zheng naturally can't go either.
The two discussed it, collected the corpse, and then went back to Didao City.
"This merit is great, and the court will give a partial general." After this battle, Xiahou Ba glanced at Yang Zheng higher, and his tone of voice was much gentler.
General Wei Guobian belongs to the fifth rank, and is usually awarded by the emperor or general.
It is higher than the lieutenant and general, and lower than the miscellaneous general.
At that time, Xu Huang and Zhang Hechu served in this position from Wei Wu, and then they were promoted by merit.
Cao Wei has always attached great importance to military merits, after all, now that the Three Kingdoms are in power, a large number of excellent generals are needed.
Xu Zhen was originally only a pawn in the army, but because of his bravery, he was promoted to captain by Guo Huai.
Cao Shuang Group has just experienced a fiasco in Luogu, and now a small victory between Yang Zheng and Xiahouba can be called a send-off, which is enough to save some face for them.
Yang Zheng was happy in his heart, "Thank you, general, but this time I was able to repel the Shu thieves, and Jiang Faye, the leader of the Qiang people, contributed a lot." ”
Yang Zheng originally wanted to ask for credit for Jiang Faye.
As soon as he started, Xiahou Ba reminded in a low voice: "This person ...... When the time comes, you can just reward some money, and if some people in the court know that you are asking for credit for the Qiang chieftain, it will be a lot of trouble. ”
Troublesome?
Cao Wei Zhiyi, suppressed with his left hand, and pulled together with his right hand.
Although it sometimes misses the light, the means are superb, and the proportions are very good.
There were Qiang soldiers in the army, but there were no generals.
At that time, Wang Ping was excluded in the Wei army because of his status as a stumbling person.
As far as Yang Zheng knows, the scholars of this era are quite discriminatory against people.
The Qiang people rebelled and surrendered, and the court naturally did not easily believe them.
Yang Zheng roughly figured out the doorway, knowing Xiahouba's kindness, he was no longer reluctant, whether he could get this tooth goalkeeper or not.
Xiahou Ba was in a very good mood, he didn't even care about the burns on his body, and said a lot to Yang Zheng.
He Hui and the other generals looked at Yang Zheng differently.
There was always a hint of jealousy.
Now it's respect.
When he arrived at Di Dao, before entering the city, Gongsun Fu had already greeted him outside the city.
He looked a little anxious.
Yang Zheng confessed to Xiahou Ba and found a private place to speak.
Gongsun Fu took out two bamboo slips from his arms.
"The general is on top, Mi Baibai, Longxi has always been peaceful, Yang Zheng came suddenly, the chicken and the dog are restless, there are Qiang people in front of the rebellion, and there are Shu thieves in the back, the generals of Longxi are instigated by it, there are many discords, their faces are loyal, their hearts are treacherous, General Xiahou is confused by words, can not detect it, and then intensifies, secretly knots with Qiang people, and often has the ambition of Dong Zhuo! It is full of fishy smell, I can't sleep at night, I am worried, I can't finish the book, I hope the general will break it quickly......"
After reading the letter, Yang Zheng laughed instead of being angry.
Li Mi is really an old birthday star hanging, and his life is too long.
Originally, I thought that if there was a rare war, he would be martyred with honor.
Unexpectedly, the Qiang people did not move, and the Shu army was only swaying in Taoshui.
Secretly knotted with Qiang people, often with Dong Zhuo's ambition!
This sentence is sent, Deng Yang and Li Sheng add oil and vinegar to the side, what will Cao Shuang do?
Even if you don't do it yourself, the credit for defeating the Shu army will definitely be gone.
The second bamboo slip, the content is similar, it was given to Guo Huai.
Li Mi took great pains to kill himself.
This letter is written in three parts of the truth, seven points of fiction, if the above really sent someone down to check, as soon as they saw the Qiang people in the city of Caohan, they must have a preconceived belief.
The point is that I'm not really clean.
"That's a good letter." Yang Zheng couldn't help but praise a few words.
Gongsun Fu said: "The six people before and after three times were all held by us, and no one escaped. ”
"Okay." Yang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, Li Mi had reached the point where he had to get rid of it.
Even if he is let go, he secretly befriended Qiang people today, and tomorrow he will always have the ambition of Dong Zhuo, how will he live if he spreads it?
But this guy also has some vision.
Yang Zheng did not have a clear plan for the road ahead.
Secretly knotted with Qiang people, often cherishing Dong Zhuo's ambitions, but pointed to a clear road.
If you want to strengthen yourself, you must not follow the path of the Central Plains.
It's hard to move without a family background.
But the Qiang people don't care about their family background, and they have always respected heroes and heroes.
This time to be able to repel the Shu people, in fact, the biggest credit is the Qiang people.
If you can unify them like Dong Zhuo and Han Sui, in this troubled world, you will have capital that is not controlled by others.
Even if the Sima clan usurped Cao Wei at that time, and wanted to liquidate himself, he also needed to weigh it.
"You're doing a good job, I'll go and say goodbye to General Xiahou."
Xiahou Ba originally wanted to leave Yang Zheng for a banquet, but the biggest casualty was the strength of Di Dao City, there were already voices of grief in the city, and the surviving soldiers were also listless, how could there be a mood for a banquet in this situation?
Xiahouba himself was also interested in Shanshan, so he did not keep it.
Before leaving, he gave Yang Zheng a lot of money and food.
