I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 276 Fight again!

As the most famous general in the Han Dynasty, Ren Shang can see many of these things very clearly.

For example, regarding the current war, his guess was not wrong.

Under the current Dingxi City, General Zhengxi of the Han Dynasty launched attacks against the city again and again, but in the end they all returned without success.

The attacks one after another seem fierce, but Dingxicheng is also a key town for the rebels today, and the defense is not generally strong.

At this time, the person stationed in Dingxi City was no one else. It was Du Jigong, the rebel general who had defeated Pang Shen head-on and defeated the Han army in succession, and was now quite famous among the Han army!
At this time, looking at Du Jigong who was commanding calmly on top of the city, Sima Jun also had a rather gloomy expression.

Although it was still part of their plan, it was too embarrassing to repeatedly fail to attack the city.

This scene was also seen by the Han Emperor Liu Long who was watching the battle from behind.

When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but let out a tut-tsk sound.

During this period of time, Liu Long was also used to seeing big scenes and really seeing the fighting on the battlefield. He could see some things relatively clearly.

For example, now, he can clearly see that this Du Jigong is not a good person, and that Sima Jun is not faking defeat. This guy really can't get in!
When I think about it, Sima Jun is regarded as one of the most respected generals in the Han Dynasty, but he has suffered repeated defeats in front of this guy.

Although the geographical location of Dingxi City was very important, it still proved that Du Jigong was an extremely good general.

And I heard that this guy had a winning streak before.
"Is this the Du Jigong who defeated Pang Shen, the governor of Hanyang, and left our general Ren Shang helpless?"

At this time, Liu Long directly raised his hand and pointed in that direction, and then asked Deng Zun, his personal attendant beside him.

At this time, Deng Zun already knew quite a bit about the northwest. After taking a look, he told Liu Long one by one about Du Jigong's situation.

"Speaking of which, Du Jigong can be considered a figure. Although this guy is working for the Qiang and Hu.

But he himself is not a Qiang person, it can even be said that he is a pure Han Chinese!

He is Du Qi's biological brother. Your Majesty, you still remember this person's name, right? "

"I don't remember. I remember that Du Qi is dead. That guy caused a lot of trouble for the court back then!"

"What your Majesty said is absolutely true. Du Qi claimed to be General Anhan and dared to openly resist the imperial court. In the end, he was killed by the assassin Du Xi, an old official of Hanyang, sent by Zhao Bo, the prefect of Hanyang."

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Liu Long suddenly raised his hand, and then said softly with a somewhat reminiscing look, "I really can't remember it.

I remember Du Qi, but what happened to the two of them? "

"Your Majesty, when the Queen Mother first came into power, she sent General Deng Zhi to lead troops to quell the rebellion because of the chaos in the northwest. However, the General also underestimated her.

This resulted in heavy losses for our Han soldiers and horses, and the northwest became completely chaotic.

In the end, in order to stabilize the imperial court, and to prevent the chaos in the northwest from spreading to Chang'an and the imperial mausoleums, disturbing the cultivation of the former emperors of my Han Dynasty.

The imperial court ordered some people to move inland.

Among them, the parts designated for inward relocation are mainly places such as Jincheng and Longxi, so that Yongzhou and Liangzhou in the northwest can be separated first!
It won’t let the occupation stretch out too long, and at the same time.”

"It's also to prepare for giving up Liangzhou. I know what happened back then!" Liu Long snorted directly at this time, obviously with deep resentment.

It can be seen that even after so many years, Liu Long still hates the original suggestion very much.At this time, Deng Zun, who was beside Liu Long, also continued talking.

"Your Majesty is extremely virtuous.

In the fifth year of Yongchu, the people of Jincheng and Longxi were overwhelmed by the imperial court's orders.

Therefore, some problems have arisen, and Du Qi is one of them.

Because the people in the two places were forcibly moved inland, many people began to flee halfway through. In addition to those who died of starvation, exhaustion and illness along the way.

Most of them are fugitives, who have directly turned from common people into bandits.

Among them, Du Qi, Wang Xin and others are quite powerful people in this county, and this inward migration is also extremely important and painful for them.

Especially Du Qi, his Du family is indeed not a big deal in the entire northwest, but it is still a pretty good family locally, or in Hanyang County.

In particular, Du had some contact with the Qiang and Hu before, and they had some business dealings with each other. In addition, she had a lot of friendship with some of the Qiang and Hu.

So they were forced to have no choice but to know that returning to my rule would not bring any good results.

So he kept doing nothing and directly led people to get in touch with those Qiang Hu.

At the beginning, Du Qi had some means and abilities.

Although they had a good relationship with the Qiang and Hu, Du Qi insisted on taking charge of the troops by himself, and would rather get less power than completely merge his troops with the Qiang and Hu.

So he gathered a large group of refugees and bandits in the northwest and formed an incredible army.

And his location was exactly where Hanyang County was, which made the court very embarrassed.

However, because there are still Qiang and Hu who are blocking it, the court cannot solve this matter and can only let him continue to develop.

But with the development of his power, not only is his strength getting stronger and stronger, but the most important thing is that his troubles are getting bigger and bigger.

This is especially a great threat to Hanyang County and even many surrounding counties.

Among them, after they gathered a crowd to rebel, they directly captured Shanggui City. That place was very important to the entire northwest and the entire Longdi.

The original Hanyang Governor Zhao Bo was not a famous general of our Han Dynasty, and he had no good way to deal with this kind of thing.

He wanted to send troops to exterminate the bandits, but he was powerless.

In desperation, he could only choose another way, and that was..."

"Assassination!" Liu Long did not remember why Du Qi was missing, but he could already guess that the hand used by the so-called Hanyang Governor Zhao Bo was broken.

“If you can’t solve the problem, then solve the people who created the problem.

This method was indeed a solution, but he still did not solve the problem after all.

On the contrary, because of Zhao Bo and Zhao Hanyang's methods, the situation in the northwest has become even more chaotic! "
