Hao Zhao, a native of Taiyuan, is Guo Huai's hometown.

Unlike Guo Huai, who was born in a family like Guo Huai, Hao Zhao is not from a big family, he is just a son of a poor family, so from a very young age, Hao Zhao had to join the army to gain fame.

Like Wei Yan, Hao Zhao served as someone's subordinate in his early years, and was promoted step by step, from subordinate to subordinate governor, and then meritorious in battle, step by step from subordinate governor to captain, and then to the current miscellaneous general.

When Liu Bei swore to the Northern Expedition, a rebellion happened to occur in Liangzhou.

In May of the 25th year of Jian'an, the Koji Yan of Xiping County in Liangzhou colluded with several nearby counties to create unrest and resist the Taishou Zou Qi sent by Cao Wei to Xiping County; Zhang Jin of Zhangye County also arrested Taishou Dutong, while Huang Hua of Jiuquan County refused to allow Taishou Xinji to take up his post in the county, and they all claimed to be Taishou in response to the Koji Yan, and the Hu people of the three tribes in Wuwei County also rebelled again.

This is Liangzhou in the Eastern Han Dynasty, if you don't make trouble every once in a while, you're really embarrassed to call yourself a Liangzhou person.

In the face of such a rebellion, even with the influence of Liu Bei's Northern Expedition in Hanzhong, Cao Wei could not ignore it.

On the one hand, Cao Wei ordered Guo Huai, the assassin of Liangzhou, to lead troops into Tianshui County in the north of Yongzhou to guard against Liu Bei, and on the other hand, Cao Wei asked Su Ze, the captain of Huqiang, to send troops to rescue Wuwei Taishou Qiuxing.

Cao Wei attacked both sides at the same time, preparing to wipe out the rebellion in Liangzhou while guarding against Liu Bei's Northern Expedition.

It's not that Cao Pi is careless, it's really Cao Wei at that time, his strength is really strong, and the gang of turtles in Liangzhou will make trouble every three or five years, and they will always be pacified in the end, Cao Pi is used to it, and he really doesn't take the turtles in Liangzhou to heart.

And Hao Zhao, it was at this time that he followed Su Ze, the captain of Huqiang, into Liangzhou and stationed in Guzang County, Wuwei County, as a general, to assist Su Ze in quelling the rebellion in Liangzhou.

In the beginning, the counterinsurgency went well.

Su Ze still has the ability, at least for these heroes in Shangliangzhou, the intelligence is crushing.

Su Ze believes that although these Liangzhou turtles rebelled, they were only for personal interests, and they were not united, and they could completely break the old problem of the Liangzhou rebellion.

Su Ze obviously also grasped the law of the rebellion in Liangzhou, and understood that the rebel leaders of the various counties only cared about their personal desires, not only did they not have the will to unite and cooperate, but also guarded against each other, intrigued, and even attacked each other. As long as they send people to divide and divide, maybe they don't need Su Ze to lead the army to conscript, they themselves will fall apart, and Su Ze can easily put down this rebellion.

As for the Hu people in the three counties, this is not a problem.

Let's not say that the Han people have a natural psychological advantage in the fight against the Hu people, and it is not necessarily true that the Hu people rebelled this time.

A few years ago, Guo Huai pressed these Hu people to the ground in Liangzhou, and at this time, Guo Huai was still recruiting Hu cavalry around Tianshui County to fight, and the Hu people in the three counties of Liangzhou were unlikely to choose to rebel sincerely at this time, and there was a high probability that they were still coerced or lured by the rebels of the three counties.

This problem is actually the best solution.

What the Hu people want is nothing more than money and food, and if the three counties can buy and coerce them, then Su can also use the same means to buy and coerce them to join the court again, and these Hu people have nothing to worry about.

And without the help of the Hu people, those turtles who were making trouble in Liangzhou were not even-hearted, and they only needed to use the discord plan to attack them one by one, and this rebellion could be quelled.

Su Ze's idea was right, and the plan was very good, but just after Su Ze had just finished buying the Hu people in Liangzhou and sent all these Hu people to Guo Huai to be cannon fodder, before Su Ze could do anything to the wealthy families of Liangzhou in the three counties, Liu Bei had already led the troops out of Qishan Road.

The entire Yongliang was busy dealing with Liu Bei's Northern Expedition at this time, and Su Ze had no choice but to temporarily stand still in Wuwei County, ready to respond to Guo Huai at any time.

But who knows, Guo Huai, who played the title of "Heavenly God" in Liangzhou, was defeated in more than ten days, and even Guo Huai, the assassin of Liangzhou, did not choose to return to Liangzhou after the defeat, but went directly to Shangtai This Su Ze is numb.

Although Su Ze is the captain of Huqiang, his prestige in Liangzhou is obviously not comparable to Guo Huai. Guo Huai does not return to Liangzhou, it is easy to give those local tyrants in Liangzhou who are still on Cao Wei's side a feeling of "everyone has been abandoned by Cao Wei".

You really can't blame the wealthy people in Liangzhou for thinking so, because this kind of thing has been repeated several times in more than a hundred years. The Han people in Liangzhou are not born to be rebellious, if it weren't for the imperial court repeatedly "abandoning" them, they would not have the current style of wall grass.

Guo Huai is not there, Su Ze's prestige is not enough, Xu Miao can suppress the wealthy families in Jincheng, but out of Jincheng County, no one will buy his Xu Miao's face.

Not to mention, the three counties in the northwest are still in rebellion, and in the face of such a situation, Su Ze is even more afraid to rashly march into the army to quell the rebellion in Liangzhou.

One more. Su Ze also has his own careful thoughts.

Su is a martial artist who is already very close to Liangzhou.

And Su Ze's official experience was basically in Liangzhou, and the Taishou of Jiuquan, Anding, and Wudu in the early years of the three counties of Wudu, before Cao Cao withdrew from Hanzhong, was also under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou.

Therefore, although Su Ze is the captain appointed by Cao Wei to protect Qiang, he is actually half of Liangzhou.

What is the mentality of the people of Liangzhou, Su Ze knows very well, but in the same way, Su Ze has been an official in Liangzhou for a long time, and he may not be very loyal to Cao Wei Su Ze is also watching, seeing who can control Liangzhou.

If Liu Bei can control Liangzhou, then Su Ze will not be able to fight to the death for Cao Wei, but if Cao Wei still controls Liangzhou, then Su will immediately send troops to divide the rebellion of the three counties and quell the civil strife in Liangzhou.

And the development of the situation was already obvious by the beginning of the twenty-sixth year of Jian'an.

With Liu Bei's success, the connection between Liangzhou and Guanzhong was cut off, and even if Su wanted to be loyal to Cao Wei, he now had no channel to establish contact with the Cao Wei group in Guanzhong.

Therefore, Su Ze's heart, as Pang Tong and Fa Zheng and others said, was inclined to want Liu Beijun to surrender.

However, surrendering like this is really not in line with the characteristics of the Liangzhou people. You have to fight it anyway, and you have to make a show.

First, show your ability, so that you can get a better treatment after surrendering to Liu Bei.

Second, as a member of the scholar class, if you say that you surrender, you will surrender, doesn't that seem very undisciplined?!

I have to resist a little bit and show my loyal character.

This is the real reason why Su Ze gathered troops to resist Zhao Yun in Wuwei County.

But the problem is that Su Ze didn't expect that his subordinate Hao Zhao, a miscellaneous general who was originally inconspicuous, would actually block the attack of nearly 20,000 people by the famous general Zhao Yun with 7,000 people.

And most importantly, Hao Zhao thwarted almost all of Zhao Yun's offensive methods, burned most of the siege equipment of the Shu army, and his own casualties were only a few hundred people.

It's magical, okay?

What is the virtue of the soldiers under his command, Su Ze knows very well, these are all newly recruited soldiers in the past three months, and the real Liangzhou elites have been taken away by Guo Huai, and all of them are under Huo Huo in Ji County.

With only seven thousand newly recruited soldiers and a miscellaneous general who is not well-known, he was able to block the siege of Liu Bei's army. Why is Liu Bei okay?!

Don't go back and let Cao Wei's army fight back, if you surrender so soon, wouldn't you be unlucky?!

Su Ze is now a captain of Huqiang, and his official position is not low, if he takes a wrong step, his future will be ruined.

Su hesitated, he didn't know if he should surrender or not. Because Hao Zhao played too well, even if Su Ze hesitated, he still held the initiative.

And Zhao Yun outside the city is also quite a headache now, because he has no way to take Hao Zhao.

Although I had heard that Zhang Xi had made a rocket before, according to the third brother, that rocket was used to scare people, and it had no actual combat significance at all.

All your siege equipment has burned this rocket, okay?

If you can't quickly break through Wuwei County and show the combat power of Liu Bei's group, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to take over Liangzhou smoothly.

For this reason, Zhao Yun was also worried.

A hard attack will definitely not work, the other party's general is really good at defending, and if you build a batch of siege equipment, it is estimated that it is more likely to be burned by someone. But that doesn't mean that Zhao Yun has no other way.

Zhao Yun is not a reckless man, he is a standard famous general with both wisdom and bravery, but he is low-key, so he is not as good as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao and others in terms of reputation.

Since you can't storm it, it's better to take it skillfully.

Before entering Liangzhou, Zhao Yun had already had some superficial understanding of the situation in Liangzhou, knowing that Liangzhou Haoqiang was rebelling, and they were right behind Wuwei County.

Zhao Yun immediately sent someone to contact the Koji Yan of Xiping County, and at the cost of the official position of the Taishou of Xiping County, let the Koji Yan attack behind Wuwei County and attack Guzang County on both sides with himself.

Although Koji Yan is the main person in charge of this Liangzhou rebellion, but the heroes in Liangzhou, since Ma Chao fled to Yizhou and Han Sui died of illness, no one is convinced, even if there is a rebellion, they are not thinking about how to fight against the counterinsurgency army, what they did first time was to attack each other, wanting to follow Ma Chao and Han Sui and become the co-masters of Liangzhou.

So in fact, the life of Koji Yan is not easy, not only to face the counterinsurgency army led by Su Ze, but also to guard against the backstabbing of Zhangye Zhang Jin and Jiuquan Huanghua at any time, and he is also very anxious about his small life.

Now that Zhao Yun threw an olive branch, Koji Yan was suddenly overjoyed to have Liu Bei Group as the backing, what else does he need to be afraid of, Zhang Jin, Huang Hua? !

In this way, Koji Yan immediately led 3,000 troops to attack Wuwei County from Xiping County, and cooperated with Zhao Yun in front of him to attack Wuwei County on both sides.

Now Su was uncomfortable.
