Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1111 Marching
Even in later generations, if there is no means of communication, human beings will still be unable to move an inch in nature, and this is even more so in the Han Dynasty.For such an era when communication tools are all transmitted by people, any little bit of information is extremely precious. While pricking up your ears, carefully observe the development of the situation, and at the same time carefully deploy your troops according to the information , It became the choice of many generals in the Han Dynasty.

It is even the only choice for many Haoyou and gentry in Guanzhong.

A few days ago, all the garrisons in Suyi that originally belonged to General Zhengxi were dispatched, passed Zuo Fengyi, and headed east. The places they passed naturally caused shocks in Guanzhong.The local tyrants and gentry that still remain in Guanzhong have long been full of rumors about the rapidly rising and dazzling General Zhengxi like a comet in their ears, especially the news that his soldiers and horses are powerful, and they are even more boasted. ...

For the big Han in the precarious situation, these Guanzhong gentry nobles are actually somewhat lacking in interest. Some of the national righteousness in their hearts was also consumed in the nearly 20 years of the Western Qiang Rebellion War.

For these Guanzhong gentry Haoyou, the remaining here is just because they are reluctant to give up the land in their hands. As for the rulers above them, they are more or less indifferent. A domineering person?If the power of these Guanzhong nobles and rightists can be guaranteed, it will be the same for anyone.

When Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, rose up, he was only in Bingbei, and his ruling power could not reach the Guanzhong area. However, the changes in Bingbei and Pingyang have sprouted in the hearts of many people.It is admirable that a place of bitter cold can undergo earth-shaking changes within a few years.

At the same time, the vast majority of these Guanzhong gentry and powerful people basically have no concept of economics, so they have no ability to counter the series of wealth-attracting measures in Pingyang. The merchants moved from Guanzhong to Pingyang...

The richer you are, the more vendors you have, the more you will attract them, and you will gather together at the risk of huge competition; the poorer you are, the less purchasing power you have, the less vendors are willing to go. Once such a cycle is established, It is also difficult for ordinary people to break.

In addition, there is another very important reason. Guanzhong has been in chaos for too long. It is not only broken to such a degree that it can even be said to be fragmented. These remaining Guanzhong nobles are eager for a powerful The political group can have a powerful lineup and direct control of Guanzhong with extremely sharp troops. Even if it is as brutal as Dong Zhuo, it is just a harder life. .

When Yang Biao was in Guanzhong, in order to win over these nobles in Guanzhong, he might have given some benefits, but in a blink of an eye Yang Biao patted his ass and went to Hongnong, and all the promised benefits fell into nothing. If it weren't for Yang Biao's influence, these Guanzhong gentry Haoyou, who have been exploited layer after layer, would have jumped on their feet and cursed.

Of course, it was just swearing, let these gentry who are used to being a rich man brazenly raise troops to make trouble, most of them don't have the guts, they all count on others to take the lead, so there is no one to take the lead.

That being the case, these surviving gentry Haoyou in Zuofengyi also made the most realistic choice. On the one hand, they tried their best to maintain a relationship with the upstart Jing Zhaoyin and Zhao Wen in Guanzhong, and on the other hand, they secretly found some finely selected gifts and animals. What, send it to Suyi...

Therefore, when Zhao Wen rushed towards Suyi with some soldiers and horses, these Guanzhong gentry nobles who got the news could not help feeling a sense of anticipation that the final result would finally come.

The closer it was to this moment, the more people would be dispatched to carry out sentinels, and at the same time, the connection between the docks would be strengthened, carefully watching the direction of the wind and which side it would blow.

The people who stayed in Suyi to guard the city were also the original officials of Suyi. After Xu Shu left with his troops, they were worried all day long. With the picture book, I went outside the city to meet...

"What?! So, all the food and grass in the city has been emptied?" Zhao Wen asked in surprise holding Su Yi's album.

The officials staying in Suyi replied: "I have reported to the envoy, there are only a few dozen stones left... The people in the city are about to run out of food, please ask the envoy to send one or two..."

Zhao Wen laughed dumbfounded.Originally, I thought that when it came to Suyi, I could use the food and grass in Suyi city, but I didn't expect to lose food and grass instead. Zhao Wen really didn't know what to say.

"Where are the soldiers in the city?" Zhao Wen asked, "Don't say it's just these..."

Looking at the two or three rows of old, weak, sick and disabled people lined up beside the road, Zhao Wen knew why Xu Shu had left these people behind. If it was him, he would naturally have made the same choice.

The official of Suyi cupped his hands, and said a little embarrassedly: "...Hui Shijun...this...exactly these..."

Zhao Wen couldn't help feeling a little angry, and said after a while, "Then how many weapons are there in the city?"

The Suyi official lowered his head and said, "This...no..."

Zhao Wen rolled his eyes: "Woods and rolling stones, you always have the defense equipment?" Want some?
"This...nor..."

"..." Zhao Wen was speechless for a while, "Neither this nor that, so what do you need?"

The Suyi official was silent for a moment, then stretched out his hand to remove the crown, put it on the ground together with the bronze seal in his arms, and said: "...a certain incompetent, I beg you to let the king allow you to resign..."

Zhao Wen gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, remained silent for a moment, and then waved his hand.

The Suyi official, or the former Suyi official, bowed again before standing up and leaving.

It's not that Zhao Wen doesn't know these things, and it's not that the official of Suyi can make the decision, but the fact that there is nothing to do, makes Zhao Wen full of anger. If it weren't for some remaining rationality, Zhao Wen would even want to be stabbed Kill this Suyi official...

"Get out! Put down your weapon, take off your armor, get out! Get out!"

Panting for a while, Zhao Wen pointed his horsewhip at the old and weak soldiers beside the road, roared angrily, and then beat his horse to Suyi.Knowing that Suyi is poor and poor, he has to accept this result, because Suyi is the best place to block Diaoyin's opening, so even in the current situation, Zhao Wen has to hold his nose and admit it...

....................................

People and horses circled on the winding mountain road, and the mighty army seemed endless.

After turning a few corners and seeing the figure of Guan Pass looming on the hilltop in the distance, all the soldiers in Feiqian's formation couldn't help cheering.

"Diaoyin, look! Diaoyin is ahead! My God, it's finally here!"

"Straight mother thief, this climber can finally rest!"

"Don't say anything, it's better than anything else to bring me a bowl of hot soup!"

"Medium! Make another fire, roast these robes on your body well, and then sleep, tsk tsk..."

The soldiers talked happily, and the rumors of yelling and yelling reached Fei Qian's ears.

Fei Qian chuckled and didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Zhang Ji, who was next to Fei Qian, got a little angry, and shouted straight up: "You group of melon skins! If you eat cold pancakes, it will be difficult for the general? The general didn't say anything, what a fart you are!" ! Move faster, take bigger steps! Don't tuck your legs, you're like a bitch!"

Fei Qian also said: "Everyone work hard, and when we get to Diaoyin, we will have a good rest, there must be some hot soup!"

The soldiers responded with a roar, and also quickened their pace.

From Pingyang to Diaoyin, the mountain road is indeed difficult to travel, especially the baggage truck. If you are not careful, you will get stuck in the pit of the mountain road, or even overturn due to the uneven road. And short, one day really can't travel a long distance.

Fei Qian and Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu set off first, while Pang Tong and Jia Xu followed behind, escorting the baggage cart and slowly following.If Fei Qian, the vanguard, went with the baggage cart, let alone five days, even if it took fifteen or twenty days, he might not be able to get from Pingyang to Diaoyin...

But winter has an upside too.

cold.

When the weather is cold, it is not easy to perish when eaten.

Therefore, the army of Feiqian starting from Pingyang is not the same as an ordinary army at all, but somewhat like an army of Hu people. They are not carrying baggage carts, but horses and livestock, and most of the animals carry the weight on them. It is also the fodder and beans for the horses. As for the food of the people, it is carried by the soldiers themselves.

Without the baggage carts to pull the hind legs, the speed of the march naturally increased a lot.

Coupled with the ordinary sweaters that Feiqian has stockpiled since last year, it also helped a lot.Although wearing such a sweater will inevitably itch, but for soldiers who have always been able to test Gebu robes and their bodies to resist the cold in winter, this is already a big difference...

Some time ago, Zhang Ji also suffered some minor injuries in the north of Yinshan Mountain, and also had some small and large wounds on his body, but for a man who spent most of his life on horseback, these wounds were like medals.

Seeing that he was approaching Diaoyin, Zhang Ji relaxed a lot and said, "General, this time, we are going to take Guanzhong, right? Hehehe, it's best to go to Xiliang..."

Fei Qian said with a smile: "What's the matter? Homesick?"

Zhang Ji nodded, then shook his head again, and said, "I think so... But... I have no home in Xiliang... Back then, the Qiang people rebelled..." In fact, Zhang Ji's family is also a powerful family in Wuwei, Xiliang, but Under the background of the chaos in Xiqiang, even the local tyrants are like ants.

The local nobles are powerful, that is to say, they can dominate the local area. Once they leave the territory they control, they will immediately decline, just like the Zhuge family in Langya is also a local prominent family. As a result, once they leave, Zhuge can only be in I went to work in the fields by myself.

In fact, most of Xiliang's tyrants also serve as horse thieves. In addition to defense, they also do some looting. Therefore, most of Xiliang's tyrants are all martial arts, which is the reason.

Zhang Ji shook his head, as if he wanted to put some bad memories aside, and then said: "Oh, I made the general laugh..."

Fei Qian laughed, and said: "It's okay, when the suffering will come to an end, there will be a day when you will return to your hometown! At that time, the Zhang family will naturally be able to raise the flag in Xiliang again! I'm afraid you will be reluctant to part with Guanzhong at that time. I don't know!"

"Hahaha!" Zhang Ji laughed loudly, "This is a good relationship! Let me borrow the general's auspicious words!"

Zhang Xiu, a black and strong young man with a tall and burly appearance, was wearing heavy armor and followed behind Zhang Ji silently. Hearing the conversation between Fei Qian and Zhang Ji, he was also grinning from ear to ear.After the Battle of Yinshan, not only Zhang Ji was promoted, but even Zhang Xiu was promoted to a miscellaneous title of captain, called Zhenlu captain. Although it was only the rank of captain, it was already possible to make its own unique recognition flag. Compared to being under Dong Zhuo's back then, this is of course a lot more beautiful...

After wandering abroad enough, it is the biggest dream of the Huaxia Han people who are wandering abroad to be able to go back to their hometown and enjoy all kinds of admiration and envy from the people in their hometown.

The dream of falling leaves returning to their roots has not been changed even for thousands of years.

In the Battle of Yinshan, I won an official position. If I do another battle in Guanzhong and conquer it well, I can put a few pennies in the merit book...

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu couldn't bear it any longer. Seeing Fei Qian and Zhang Ji's eagerness to laugh and talk, she couldn't help but added a sentence: "General, let me be the vanguard this time!"

Zhang Ji looked back at Zhang Xiu, heyed, and said, "What's the matter, can't you compete with me? No, no, you're still tender..."

Zhang Xiu argued: "Uncle! Last time you praised me that commanding troops is good, why did it become bad in a blink of an eye..."

Zhang Ji said: "...This, this depends on the situation! Anyway, I don't think you can do it!"

"Ah! Uncle!" Zhang Xiu couldn't help shouting.

Fei Qian smiled and said to Zhang Xiu: "It seems that you really want to lead the army alone?"

Zhang Xiu didn't hold back, immediately bowed his hand to Fei Qian, and said loudly: "Yes! I implore the general!"

Fei Qian nodded and said: "Originally, a certain person also had a plan to detour to Chang'an with a team... However, this road is all mountain roads, and it is cold winter, so it will be difficult..."

Zhao Yun had walked this detour to the mountain road before, but it was just before summer, so even if he didn't set up camp, it was still passable.But now it is winter, on the rugged and narrow mountain roads, it is good to be able to travel, don’t even think about camping or anything, the most you can do is dig a nest to compete with the cold of nature, the difficulty is not increased It's half past one.

Therefore, normally speaking, once it enters winter, these originally rugged mountain roads are not a road for soldiers and horses to pass in the eyes of many people. It is like the seven Qishan Mountains in history. Only here in Qishan is the most suitable road for the army to march in.

Zhang Xiu also knew that in this season, it would be difficult for a small group of troops to march on the mountain road, but for him, it was also an opportunity, so after thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing to take orders! I will definitely live up to the general entrusted!"

Fei Qian looked at Zhang Xiu for a while, finally nodded, and said: "Okay, if that's the case, I'll go to Diaoyin first, and I will give you the album of this road, so I can lead an army alone..."
