Chapter 1328: Breaking the Liangzhou Guard
There are 5,000 households in Ningxiawei, scattered around because of the terrain.
The Han army suddenly attacked and surrendered Xie Pingcheng. The rest of the people are helpless. Soon after, thousands and hundreds of households came to the mountain, stood in front of Zhang Zhen, and bowed down.
Zhang Zhen said: "I don't talk nonsense with you. Just a few questions for you. ”
"First. Emperor Han or Emperor Chu, who is more intelligent and martial? ”
Thousands of households and hundreds of households hesitated when they heard this, of course the Han Emperor was more wise and martial, but if they said so, wouldn't it be good?
"Emperor Han?" In the end, thousands of households and hundreds of households still gritted their teeth and said.
"Me and Xiao Yu, who is strong and who is weak?" Zhang Zhen nodded in satisfaction, and then asked a second question.
"The general is strong." This time, thousands and hundreds of households answered very neatly.
"Then why are you still helping the Chu State fight? All go back to straighten out the soldiers and horses, and rest here tonight. Come with me to Pingliang Prefecture tomorrow. ”
Zhang Zhen said loudly.
"This !!" Thousands of households and hundreds of households were speechless for a while, but if you think about it carefully, this is indeed the truth.
Emperor Chu is inferior to Emperor Han.
Xiao Yu is not as good as Zhang Zhen.
Now that the Han soldiers have invaded northern Shaanxi, captured Yan'an, and surrendered Xie Pingcheng, what else is there to fight?
"Yes." After thousands of households and hundreds of households figured it out, it was like unloading a thousand catties of heavy burden, and they were comfortable all over their bodies, and they should be loud.
Zhang Zhen nodded, immediately returned the command to thousands of households, hundreds of households, and brought the Han soldiers to Xie Pingcheng, as well as Xie Pingcheng's staff, personal soldiers, etc., and set up camp on another mountain.
Past day and night time.
Early the next morning. None of the Ningxia guards fled, and they were all willing to follow the Han Dynasty.
Zhang Zhen arranged his troops in formation, letting the soldiers of Ningxia Wei 5,000 households walk in front, and he supervised the army behind the Han soldiers and went west.
The eyeliner of the Han soldiers is all over northern Shaanxi.
He knew the march route of Liangzhou Wei well. On the morning of this day, the two armies met on a narrow road.
The two groups of men and horses each rejected the hill and looked east and west.
on a mountain.
The "Han" flag is accompanied by the yellow sand and flutters in the wind.
Zhang Zhen stood on horseback, looking up at the mountain in front of him, his eyes were deep. Because it was not a sudden attack, Liangzhou Wei was prepared for defense, and some of the baggage vehicles were used, and it was difficult to break through.
"Father. What to do? Chen Pingce immediately stepped forward and asked.
He can also see that the current Liangzhou Wei is not easy to deal with.
Zhang Zhen was about to answer, but Xie Pingcheng, who was next to him, stepped forward immediately, clasped his fists at Zhang Zhen and saluted, "General." The last general has some friendship with Tang Qiang, and is willing to persuade Tang Qiang to surrender. ”
"You. You can't just take the opportunity to escape, right? Chen Ping turned his head and said suspiciously.
Xiao Yu fled by deception, leaving a shadow in his heart.
Xie Pingcheng's face was ugly, and he was about to explain. Zhang Zhen waved his hand and said, "You don't have to explain. I believe you. Go ahead. ”
"Thank you, General." Xie Pingcheng was overjoyed, hurriedly clenched his fists, and rode away.
"Father." Chen Ping was in a hurry and turned his head to look at Zhang Zhen. What if it runs away.
Zhang Zhen said: "If he escapes, just run away." But Ningxia Wei has already become a Han soldier, and he will not run with him. ”
He turned his head to look at the Ningxia guards on the surrounding hills, and his eyebrows showed a look of confidence. They have already submitted themselves.
Chen Ping was helpless, so he had to stretch out his hand and scratch his head.
Xie Pingcheng rode down the mountain, walked along the road, and when he approached Liangzhouwei, he shouted, "Don't let go of the arrows. I am Xie Pingcheng, the commander of Ningxia Wei. ”
The Liangzhou Wei archers, who were about to release their arrows, looked at each other for a while and put down the bows and arrows in their hands.
After a while, Xie Pingcheng, under the leadership of two Liangzhou guards, rode his horse in front of Tang Qiang.
Tang Qiang's face in his early thirties, his skin was very dark, he was tall and big, and his eyes were deep.
"General Tang." Xie Pingcheng politely hugged his fist and saluted Tang Qiang.
"General Xie." Tang Qiang held the horsewhip and returned the salute with a fist. Then he asked, "General Xie." We all responded to Xiao Yu and raised troops. Why is General Xie now following Zhang Zhen? ”
Xie Pingcheng's face turned red, and he was very ashamed to explain the matter. Then he raised his head and said to Tang Qiang sincerely: "General Tang." General Zhang Zhen, a heavenly soldier of the Han army. Now Ningxia Weidu listens to Zhang Zhen. ”
"You don't have any chance of winning. It's better to surrender to the Han army with me and enjoy the glory and wealth. ”
After saying that, Xie Pingcheng's spirit soared.
The Han Dynasty treated the generals favorably, and Tang Qiang surrendered with soldiers and horses, and he would definitely be able to increase his official ranks. And he was originally forced to surrender, and if he was successful in persuading him to surrender, he would definitely be rewarded.
As long as Tang Qiang surrenders.
It's a win-win for both of them.
"Do you think I'm you?" Tang Qiang sneered, and under Xie Pingcheng's incredulous gaze, he pulled out the steel knife on his waist, and stepped forward, the sword light flashed, cutting off Xie Pingcheng's head.
After Tang Qiang killed Xie Pingcheng, he said to a personal soldier beside him: "Are you afraid of death?" ”
"Don't be afraid." The pro-soldier replied loudly.
"Pick up the head and give it to Zhang Zhen. Tell him. If you want me to surrender Tang Qiang, it's impossible. ”
"If you have the ability, come and take my head."
Tang Qiang inserted the blood-stained steel knife back into the scabbard, and said in a fierce voice.
"Yes." The blood of the pro-soldier was full of blood, and he said loudly, walked forward quickly, picked up Xie Pingcheng's head, turned over Xie Pingcheng's war horse, rode the horse down the mountain first, and then came to the mountain where Zhang Zhen was.
Under the watchful eye of Zhang Zhen's own soldiers, he held Xie Pingcheng's head, walked in front of Zhang Zhen, and repeated Tang Qiang's words with his head held high.
"If you want to kill, you will kill." After finishing speaking, he threw Xie Pingcheng's head on the ground and waited to be killed.
Chen Ping was not impulsive this time, and looked up at Zhang Zhen. The two armies are fighting, and they don't kill them, as the play says.
Zhang Zhen laughed and said, "What am I killing you for?" Not only will I not kill you, but I will respect you as a man and let you live. ”
"Find a pole and tie him up. Let him be on the top of the mountain and watch how I broke the Liangzhou Guard. ”
"Yes." The personal soldier responded, and immediately followed Zhang Zhen's instructions to tie up this Tang Qiang's personal soldier tightly.
"It's too tight, it's too tight." Tang Qiang's own soldiers were strangled by the hemp rope and shouted.
"I'm not afraid of death, but I'm still afraid?" Zhang Zhen laughed and laughed.
"Death is only a matter of moments. It's tightly tied, it's not comfortable, it's not comfortable. Tang Qiang's own soldiers were not afraid, and glared at Zhang Zhendao.
"Hahaha." Zhang Zhen laughed, but did not help Tang Qiang's own soldiers loosen their ties. Turning his head to Chen Ping, he said, "Now the two armies are facing each other. Liangzhou Wei is on guard, and I can take it if I attack him, but he will definitely suffer heavy losses. ”
"What then?" Chen Ping knew that this was his father reminding him, but he couldn't think of any way, so he could only scratch his ears and cheeks.
"Attack the enemy and save it. The roads on the northern Shaanxi Plateau extended in all directions, and I made a posture to bypass them and go to attack the station of Liangzhou Wei. ”
"Their wife, children, and parents are all stationed there. We won't be watching us pass. ”
"And if Tang Qiang leads his troops down the mountain to stop me. I broke him easily. ”
Zhang Zhen smiled, and then ordered his own soldiers: "You all heard it. Go down and give orders. ”
