Although the Assassin Shi Banner and the Taishou Honor Guard have not yet been lost, Duan Gang is also very embarrassed.

Under the recognition flag of "Liangzhou Thorn Shi Liang", from Zhangye Taishou Duan, everyone was covered with dirt, and the robe could not see the original color. Liang Hu, who was originally at the top, was full of dead life at this time, so he was guarded by a few personal guards, sitting on a horse and slowly moving with the team.

As the real leader of this team, Duan Gang no longer puts on any of the scores that Zhang Ye is too guarded. From Guzang City to Meiyang County, this road is in a hurry, and he doesn't even have time to freshen up, and now he has a knotted beard, his face is full of dirt, and his tone of voice is three points softer than before.

I can't help but be ungentle—along the way, there are constantly people falling behind, and at first the little officials who fled with them couldn't keep up with this speed, so they could only be left behind. Later, it was these former horse thieves who he recruited himself, and they didn't seem to mean the right thing, so they simply slipped away.

Over the course of a few days, this team, which was originally considered a bit of a size, became more and more scattered. The Dunhuang Taishou Ma Ai who followed Duan Gang to do a place, the soldiers around them were not so outrageously scattered, but they were all wilted, and they could still obey the orders of their superiors, which was completely an instinct cultivated over time, but if they really encountered a battle, they would definitely scatter and flee by themselves first.

Duan Yan looked up at Meiyang County, which had already revealed its entire outline, and waved his horsewhip weakly: "Meiyang County ahead, let's go, when we get to Meiyang County, let's repair it again!"

Listening to Duan Gang's words, Ma Ai and Li Shen could only sigh, glance at each other, and slightly arrange their robes. fled in panic along the way, and they really experienced the taste of a lost dog.

As if they had made an appointment, over the years, they, the local guards of Liangzhou, had vigorously promoted Zoroastrianism, and they had all erected anti-flags at the same time. Along the way, there were people fleeing everywhere on the road, and even in the villages that relied on the post road, there were Qiang people or simply Han converts to make trouble.

Under such circumstances, the county towns along the way, they did not even dare to get close, so they escaped from Guzang City, if these small counties were blocked again, how wronged would it be? And the villages along the way were either guarded for self-protection, or because of the mixed residence of Qiang and Han, they were burned into a blank field, or the whole village was either Qiang or Qiang.

In this way, the supplies they can get along the way are also scarce. A few big people with two thousand stones can still mix a round belly, counting from the subordinate officials of a few hundred stones, they are all half hungry and half full. It's just that he finally entered the place under the jurisdiction of Anding County, and everyone couldn't settle down, Duan Yan was like a fire burning his buttocks, and he hurriedly drove people forward. Fortunately, the post houses along the way were all notified by Zhang Gui, and they used their horses tightly, saying that they had to run to death a few more on the way to Meiyang County.

But even so, there are not a few of these big people who have worn out their thighs these days.

The group gritted their teeth, and when they finally arrived at the Changting, Zhang Gui had already greeted him with his long line of receiving officials: "Brother Lequan, why is it too late?"

Facing Zhang Gui, Duan Yan finally squeezed out a little laugh line from his face, and returned the salute: "Shizheng, I really have a lot of work for you." Liang Envoy Jun also came with us, just in time to meet with Shi Zheng, and we discussed together how to deal with this chaos!"

Hearing Duan Gang take the initiative to mention the Qiang Chaos, as Zhang Gui came out to greet the local squire, the expression on his face twitched slightly. Qiang chaos, the government must let the local wealthy family donate to repay. A little blood is nothing for these local snakes, but over the years, the Liangzhou Qiang Rebellion has become more and more powerful than one again, except for a few places where elite border troops are stationed, the county soldiers sent by other counties are like tofu and rotten, and in the end, they still have to rely on the transfer of troops from other places to find some ground.

But after coming and going, when the term of office of those rogue officials arrived, they patted their butts and changed places to continue to be his parents and officials, and they were still the same, and the eunuchs were not reduced. But the dumb ones who cut the thigh meat are not them local snakes?

Occasionally, one or two loyal people will emerge among the local wealthy families, who are willing to contribute money, men and horses, and bring their own dry food to quell the chaos. However, in the officialdom of Liangzhou, the local wealthy families have always been regarded as the primary target of attack, so how can they let them get their hands on this? It is better that they can't fight for a record, and after they have made a record, they have become upstarts who have risen by virtue of military merits, and have become behemoths on the edge of the local government offices, and such a risk is that they will not take the risk of killing those local guards.

In this way, the heads of these squires who took over the officials looked at Duan Gang, a bunch of down-and-out officials who had fled, and their eyes were extremely complicated.

However, the eyes are complicated, and this face still has to be held by others. Several subordinate officials of the Taishou Mansion took the lead, and the team of officials bowed down and shouted: "We are all under the orders of the envoys!"

Duan Yan, as the leader, also smiled approachably at this time: "You don't need so many courtesies, guarding the land is originally something that people who have been favored by the country for a long time should do." It's just that the Qiang people have rebelled, and it's not the first time, and the garrisons in the counties and counties of Liangzhou are really useless, so we can only wait for the imperial court to transfer troops to suppress them, which is all helpless! But since we have the responsibility of guarding the land and reassuring the people, we still have to take care of this matter. Along the way, Liang Yuanjun and Duan Mou had already agreed that Anding County was the only way for Liangzhou to enter the customs, and Meiyang County was an important place at the throat, and after Meiyang County, it would be the right to support the wind! In order to prevent the Qiang army from entering the land of Kou Sanfu and alarming the mausoleum of the Tianjia Sect, Anding County had to defend it, and from now on, it was necessary to close the customs and roads, and strictly prohibit the passage of all people! One is to prevent anti-thieves from mixing into the customs, and the other is also to avoid any rumors and rumors that will ruin the current situation, and this is also for the sake of calming the overall situation, so everyone must not misunderstand!

This is to make it clear that it is necessary to block the transmission of news from Liangzhou to the Guannei by defending the territory and guarding against Qiang! It is not as troublesome as it was after a thousand years, and the chaos in the Western Regions is also a disconnection of the network and a blocking of signals, and with the Liangzhou Assassin Shi and several high-ranking officials sitting here, the combined authority is no worse than that of those figures who proclaimed themselves kings of the Western Regions in later generations.

Duan Lequan looked around, but his smile was gone, and the rest was solemn: "In addition, there is another matter, which was originally under the rule of Zhang Yuanjun, but now the military situation is critical, the situation is special, and the official is arrogant, so he will take a relationship and explain it as one." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, the people in the receiving team couldn't help but hold their breath, and respectfully listened to this Zhangye Taishou's instructions: "This official has been guarding the border for many years, and he also knows that this Liangzhou magistrate originally relied on the local gentry to help him. Most of us are family businesses earned by our ancestors with military exploits, and most of the sons and daughters in the family are also good at riding and shooting, and there are customs similar to those of Yanzhao. However, this official still wants to remind you that you should not do anything that is forbidden by force!"

Speaking of this, Duan Gang said: "As far as this official knows, today's turmoil is nothing more than the ambition of one or two wolves in the Qiang Department, coercing innocent Qiang people, so that this situation has become like this. If you are indiscriminate and regard the Qiang people as enemies, then the relatives will be painful and the enemies will be happy. It is Zoroastrianism, which is also a sect that teaches people to be good and has no quarrel with the world, and cannot be angry with Zoroastrianism because one or two anti-thieves use Zoroastrianism to make trouble!"

He stretched out his hand and made a downward slashing motion: "Please go back and take good care of the children in the family." Dealing with people is not about dancing knives and guns, but about making good concessions. During this period of time, it was strictly forbidden for Han people to carry swords in Anding County, and violators were all punished as thieves!"

After these words, there was a buzz and discussion in the team of the officials, even Zhang Gui couldn't listen to it anymore: "Brother Lequan, in the border area of Liangzhou, the people are good at martial arts, and it has always been an old custom to carry a sword and a sword, so it is strictly prohibited, I am afraid of ......"

Hearing Zhang Gui say this, Duan Lequan also shook his head slightly: "Shizheng, you are just too soft-hearted! In your Anding County, although there are many Han people, there are also Qiang people? If we don't restrain the local Han people in advance, they will make noise and attack each other with the Qiang people, so how can we suppress such a big chaos? We have already lost most of Liangzhou, and we can still afford to lose your Anding County again? It is better to suppress the Han people first, even if it is the local Qiang people's livelihood, we can take measures slowly and pacify it!"

As he spoke, Duan Lequan raised his voice again: "This official finally advises all the officials and the people, the chaos and thieves are powerful, and we can only keep the stability now and protect these three auxiliary portals for the heavenly family." As for the thieves, the court will mobilize a large army to suppress them! The thieves are all proficient in riding and archery, brave and invincible, and have the courage to be unstoppable, and we can only fight the ......."

When he said this, he couldn't help but feel full of emotion, he really had a difficult career and a difficult road ahead, and half of his life was focused on appeasing the border troubles, but no one knew the bitterness of such a great and virtuous minister, and he didn't understand his hard work! Not to mention how much benefit he had to give to Luoyang after barely closing the cracks and cleaning up the mess this time. When he returned to old age, he told the son who was not a good man to keep his family business, and not to become an official again, so as not to lose the family......

Just in the moment when Duan Lequan's thoughts were not humane, he didn't think of anything else. But because of his move to control Anding County at the beginning of his dismissal, as well as these commandments, not only the local miscellaneous subordinate officials and gentry in the receiving team had to listen respectfully, but even the small officials who followed the tricks also stopped their errands.

Among them was the group that dragged away the hapless herald.

The messenger was already a little naïve, and his brain was not very flexible, and he was dragged away by this group of officials, which made him even more angry. He only knew that it was these little officials who were blocking his way, and the occasion in front of him was to greet the high-ranking officials. According to the rules of the postal message, the military information he transmitted must be directed, and it is a big crime for others to intercept it.

This stunned young man recognized this article, and took advantage of the unpreparedness of the few officials who were guarding him, and rushed out suddenly!

With this effort, he suddenly had to pierce his eyes more, and the crowd blocking the way rushed out of the way for him. As he ran, he took out a scroll of documents from the red and white mail bag on his body, waved it and shouted, and saw that he was about to rush to Duan Gang and Zhang Gui:

The villain is a messenger who sent an urgent military situation to Zhangye County! Zhangye County was in turmoil, and Cao Cao, a soldier of the subordinate department, led Wei Ye to lead his troops to destroy the rebels, and all the counties in Zhangye were preserved. Kill the thieves and win a thousand ranks! A big victory, this is a big victory!"
