Starting from Chengdu, Ma Jian quickly headed south from Shuzhong with two thousand Wudang flying troops.

Because there are many mountains and forests in Nanzhong, the miasma is more lethal than the barbarians, so Ma Jian did not bring his own cavalry and infantry. Ma Tan directly chose the 2,000 Wudang Fei Army and used your soldiers in the south to counter the Nanban.

In less than ten days, Ma Tan arrived at Juti County with a large army.

At this time, the Southern Barbarian Rebellion was not as powerful as before, and the soldiers and civilians of various counties were desperately resisting the barbarians. Therefore, even though the Southern Barbarian turmoil was widespread, there were not many counties that really fell.

For example, the county guard of Juti County led troops to defend it, but thousands of barbarian soldiers besieged the county seat but could not take it for a long time.

When Ma Tan led his troops to Zhuti County, the barbarians surrounding the area found out the direction of the Han army.

The Qingqiang part of this group of barbarians has always been arrogant and unruly, and they do not obey the imperial court. When they knew that the Han army had sent troops to encircle and suppress them, not only did they not run, but they all wanted to fight back excitedly.

"At the beginning, the Shu thief Zhuge Liang led a large army to come, and bullied us with a large army, resulting in the death of countless of our clansmen! Today they have finally found a chance to take revenge, why don't you fight to the death! ”

The leader of the Qingqiang tribe was very excited, and quickly mobilized the clansmen below to prepare to counterattack Ma Yan. They totaled more than 6,000 people, three times the size of the Han army, and such a big advantage naturally had to be avenged.

This is an inaccurate positioning of yourself, you can't even beat the county soldiers in Juti County, and you still want to fight the Central Army?

Then these thousands of barbarians quickly assembled, and they rushed up to meet Ma Jian in a chaotic manner. Even because they were worried that the Han army would flee with fewer soldiers, these Qingqiang barbarians hurriedly marched to meet the battle, and the formation was not set (or it may be that they would not)

As a result, this group of Qingqiang barbarians saw what it was to be the first general of Shu Han.

Less than a quarter of an hour after the two armies met, the Qingqiang army was quickly defeated. The barbarians who charged ahead were knocked down like chopping melons and vegetables, and Ma Tan took the lead, stabbing the barbarians who had sent them to the door through the way.

As soon as the barbarians in the back saw that the situation was not good, they immediately turned around and fled, and the team of several thousand people quickly collapsed.

And Ma Tan found the leader of the other party in the process of charging into the formation, and chased after him all the way. In the end, he chased after the other party before he got into the woods, and captured the thief alive.

There's no way, there is only a little bit of men and combat power on the other side, and even Dongwu can't compare. The reason why the defenders of Nanzhong can be bullied and bullied is also because the main forces of Shu Han are all transferred to the north, and the old and weak are left to write, and the sick and disabled cannot be suppressed.

What really bothered the Shu army was actually the miasma of the road and Nanzhong, and in front of the Wudang Fei Army, this was not a problem at all.

With barely any debuff reductions, there is no chance for these brutes to struggle. The only thing to see is how many people they can run away from Ma Yan's hands.

In the end, the 6,000 barbarians did not hold out for half an hour in Ma Yan's hands, and more than 3,000 people were captured by the Wudang Fei Army.

If it weren't for the small number of soldiers, Ma Jian estimated that he would have been able to capture more prisoners.

After relieving the crisis in Juti County, the local county guard hurriedly led the army to greet the people and thanked Ma Tan for coming to support.

Ma Jian didn't feel much about this, but just grabbed the county guard and quickly asked about the specific situation in Nanzhong.

"How many barbarians are in trouble in Nanzhong now? It has affected several counties in the south and central regions, where is the main force of the enemy? Ma Tan asked a series of questions, and the county guard of Zhu Ti had to explain to Ma Jian slowly.

"Prince Taifu, now there are barbarian soldiers in all counties in Nanzhong, and they can't be suppressed in all places. Several remote counties have basically fallen, and the main force of tens of thousands of barbarians has begun to besiege Jianning County. ”

Over the years, Nanzhong has been guarding Jianning County. Generally, after the uncontrollable barbarians appeared in the surrounding counties, the great wealthy clans of Jianning County sent troops to suppress them.

However, because Li Hui was transferred to Nanyang County, he also took away some of the Li family's private soldiers before leaving, resulting in an empty garrison. And the son of the barbarian king Gao Ding, who rebelled just ten years ago, raised his troops high and called on the barbarians in the south who did not obey discipline to resist, and the army was huge.

It is worth mentioning that the timing of this high-spirited army is very interesting. Because this person had fled to Jiaozhou before, but suddenly returned to Nanzhong two months ago, lured the barbarians with heavy money, and quickly gained tens of thousands of soldiers.

Li Yi led his troops to suppress it, but because of the small number of soldiers and the narrow road, he was killed in a high ambush.

"TNND, the civil strife in Dongwu has become like that, Sun Shiwan still doesn't forget to disgust us!" Ma Jian was speechless for a while, and couldn't help but curse secretly.

"The prince and the princess also ask to rush to the aid of Jianning County as soon as possible, if it is too late, I'm afraid that Jianning County will not be guaranteed!" After explaining all this, the county guard of Juti County asked Ma Jian with his hand.

"Don't worry, I was ordered to come to suppress the Nanban, and I will definitely not back down."

Ma Tan nodded slightly, and then beckoned the Wudang Fei Army to hand over the prisoners to the defenders of Zhu Ti, and then prepared to continue the journey. Before leaving, Ma Tan asked casually,

"Who is guarding Jianning County now?"

"Prince Taifu, it's Miss Guan San and Jianning Zhuman."

"Miss Guan San?" Ma Tan was slightly stunned, and then remembered,

"Guan Xing's sister, Guan Yinping?"

Jianning County,

At this time, countless barbarian soldiers were attacking the city with simple flying ladders and wooden ladders, and attacked Zhisowei County from four directions.

However, the walls of Weixian County are not low, and the defenders are not vegetarians. The barbarian army's continuous siege of the city was blocked by the defenders, and basically did nothing.

However, it is interesting to note that most of the Han troops defending the city were not Han Chinese. A large proportion of them were also barbarians, but they were serving the Han court.

"Third Miss, when will the reinforcements from the imperial court arrive, I can't stand watching these barbarians blocking the door and provoking all day long!" The defender of the biting county, who had once again repelled the barbarians, wiped the blood from his head and asked a woman who was commanding the battle behind.

And this is Guan Erye's third daughter, the famous "Miss Guan San" Guan Yinping.

"It's been a long time since the call for help was sent, and it should be a few days before the reinforcements arrive. Wait patiently, and when the imperial reinforcements arrive, we can fight back. Guan Yinping gently put down the order flag, calmly comforting the soldiers guarding the city.

After Guan Yinping spoke, whether it was a Han soldier or a barbarian, they all stopped complaining. What this third lady did in Jianning County is obvious to all, whether it is the Han people or the local barbarian chiefs, they are all convinced.

If there was no call from Guan Yinping, the many barbarian tribes in Jianning County might not be willing to serve the imperial court.

After Li Yi's death in battle, it was also under Guan Yinping's best arrangements that Jianning County was able to be preserved under the siege of the powerful rebels.

Just when Guan Yinping was comforting the generals, he suddenly saw that the rebels outside who were preparing to attack the city again suddenly became in chaos.
