Chapter 640: Jade Face Langjun
Hu Zun was surprised to learn that Pang De was killed in an ambush in Xiao Pass, and knew that he was invincible to the Huns, so he abandoned the three passes, burned the baggage and led the troops back to Linjing.
Most of the Xiliang army was lost, only a few hundred cavalry fled back, they followed Pound for a long time, all of them looked sad and angry, and were willing to stay and wait for reinforcements to avenge Pound.
Taishou Zou Qi was restless, and couldn't help complaining about Hu Zun: "This government has long said that letting go of Xiao Guan is the entrance to the tiger, but you don't listen." Now that General Pang has taken his life, he is in a hurry, what can he do? ”
Hu Zun was not convinced, obviously he had a successful plan, killed the Hun general, remembered the two ambushes, frowned and said: "That Hu Bo is brave and has no strategy, our army has been defeated repeatedly, I expect that there will be a master in the Hun army." ”
"Young people are anxious for success and profit, are you taking chestnuts from the fire and knowing the trouble of the Huns?" Zou Qi thought that Hu Zun was making an excuse, shook his head and sighed: "Fortunately, the people of Tianbao Dahan, if it weren't for this heavy snowfall, Linjing would be in danger." Thou hast used a plot for a while, but thou hast called me a sinner through the ages! ”
"Don't worry about Mingfu! Chang'an reinforcements are coming, and Su Wenshi has destroyed his lair, and the Xiongnu are rootless, not enough to enter the army! Hu Zun hugged his fists and said: "The Art of War: Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles." It is foolish to think that when you find out who is behind this scene first, when the reinforcements arrive, you can wipe them out. ”
Zou Qi saw that Hu Zun was still shirking his responsibilities, and was greatly disappointed in him, and said with his sleeves brushed: "This stable small land can't accommodate people with great ambitions such as you!" You should go back to your hometown and find another way out of Chang'an! ”
"Mingfu ......" Hu Zun was shocked, saw Zou Qi turn his back, bowed down and said: "Sir, the student is dedicated to serving the country and the people, and he has no greed for merit!" ”
"I know that you have the talent of a general, but it is difficult to raise a dragon in shallow water, and Hugh will delay your future!" Zou Qi flicked his sleeves and turned into the back hall.
Hu Zun waited for a long time, and there was no movement after seeing the hall, so he had to sigh gloomily, bowed down and withdrew from the mansion, there was already goose feathers and heavy snow outside, standing alone on the street, the world was vast, and it became more and more lonely.
After a little hesitation, Hu Zun secretly gritted his teeth, turned around and walked to East Street, where there were still three or five friends, without the support of the government, he also wanted to find out who was behind the Huns.
……
No one could have expected that the Hexi Rebellion was actually because of a woman!
Wuwei Haojie Yan Jun, with a sparse temperament, likes to act chivalrous and righteous, is quite famous in the green forest of Qilian, and is naturally handsome, known as "Jade Face Langjun".
I heard that Ma Yunlu, the sister of Ma Chao, was young and beautiful, and was born with martial arts and extraordinary heroic spirit, so she fell in love and came to the door to ask for marriage in person.
The princes of the Ma family for generations, where can they see these rivers and lakes recklessly, and they were blasted out without even entering the gate of the Ma Mansion, and they became a joke in Hexi for a while.
Yan Jun was annoyed and ashamed, thinking that he was a dignified hero, but he was so humiliated by the Ma family, he secretly gathered friends in the rivers and lakes, and prepared to hijack Ma Yunlu when he went out hunting, and cooked raw rice.
Unexpectedly, the Ma family had many eyes and ears, and leaked the news, but was ambushed by Ma Yunlu, with heavy casualties, Yan Jun fled in defeat and fled in the Qilian Mountains, and secretly vowed to take revenge.
When he was depressed in the mountains, he met a master and instructed him to unite with horse thieves in the green forests of Qilian Mountain, most of these thieves had been suppressed and chased by the Ma family, and Ma Chao was not there at this time, and he would definitely raise troops.
Yan Jun then joined forces with Lu Yan and others to raise troops, thinking that they could be ashamed, but who knew that they were killed under Wuwei City, and they were broken by Ma Yunlu and led by Ma Jiaqi, and fled in embarrassment.
The Wuwei rebellion was temporarily quelled, but the thieves gathered in Zhangye, with more than 20,000 of them, which has become a big disaster and may come back at any time.
In the palace, Wu Wei Taishou looked at Ma Le, whose arm was bandaged, with a sad face, although the Ma family army killed Yan Jun, but after all, they were all generals, and they were heavily damaged, so they couldn't fight the enemy again.
"Shandan's horse farm must not be occupied by thieves!" Ma Le was also worried, and said worriedly: "Wang Ji knows where the horse place is, how should this be?" ”
Wang Ji was originally a family member of the Ma Family Horse Farm, because he was intercepted by robbers for transporting horse materials, and happened to be rescued by Yan Jun who was passing by, so he was grateful, and it was Wang Ji's idea to ask Ma Yunlu for marriage, and after the defeat, he followed Yan Jun for fear of punishment.
Guo Xian rubbed his eyebrows painfully and sighed: "All the counties in Xiliang are in chaos, and they can't save each other, and they will eventually be driven out by thieves." Now there are no reinforcements outside, no generals inside, if it weren't for General Ma falling from the sky, it would have become a dead end, so what can I do? ”
"Guo Fujun doesn't have to worry, although my brother is not here, but with me here, no one will want to step into Wuwei for half a step."
Outside the door, the snow creaked, and a slender woman walked in, wearing purple soft armor, a brocade robe, and a long sword at her waist.
Guo Xian sighed: "Although the little county lord is brave, but the Xiliang Rebellion is not comparable to Yan Jun's recklessness. ”
This woman is the daughter of Hou Ma Teng in Huaili, Ma Chao's younger sister Ma Yunlu, who has been good at martial arts since she was a child, learned art with Ma Chao, and has outstanding marksmanship.
Ma Yunlu raised his chin slightly, and snorted coquettishly: "Just those three clowns who jump off the beam, you don't need my brother to come, when the ice and snow melt, I will bring a team of soldiers and horses to destroy them." ”
Ma Le knew the young lady's temperament very well, Guo Xian would only backfire if he said this, and hurriedly said: "Since the county lord is worried about begging for thieves, he should hurry up to recruit and train, otherwise there will be no soldiers to adjust after the beginning of spring, and it will be in vain." ”
"That's what I'm here for!" Ma Yunlu immediately changed his smiling face, hugged his fist to Guo Xian and said: "More than 300 people have been recruited today, and please ask the Ming Mansion to allocate some more weapons!" ”
"The county lord, please!" Guo Xianfu nodded, he strongly supported Ma Yunlu in the recruitment training, to be honest, without this strange woman during this time, Wu Wei may have already been lost.
Ma Yunlu left happily, Ma Le also said goodbye to Guo Xian, although the injury has not healed, he still does not feel at ease, he still does not want to go to the racecourse, he will personally go to Shandan to guard, and come to the house to say goodbye to his sister-in-law Yang.
In the backyard of the Ma family's mansion, a teenager was practicing a gun, and he stepped out of a two-zhang square open space on the snow.
Ma Chao's wife, Yang, was watching the battle under the eaves, urging her son to practice martial arts every day, in order to inherit Ma's marksmanship as soon as possible.
Ma Le stepped forward to resign and inform the county of the matter, the current situation is critical, just in case, persuade Yang to take the child out to avoid chaos.
Yang shook his head and said: "Meng Qi is not here, the whole county is guarded by the Ma family, if I leave, I am afraid that the hearts of the people will be separated, and I should lead by example." ”
Ma Le said worriedly: "The thief is strong, and Meng Qi is thousands of miles away, it is difficult to rescue for a while, I am afraid that in case ......"
"You guys, what a fan of the authorities!" As he was talking, he saw an old man standing up in the snow, shook his head and sighed: "Obviously there are people who have a solution, and they don't go to ask for advice, but they suffer from gains and losses here, why bother?" ”
