People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 180 Huang Jun Surrenders
Wuwei Guzang!

Smoke and dust filled the city, and the end could not be seen at a glance. The iron cavalry who came out of the smoke and dust quickly formed a strict army formation. At this time, the army formation was inside.

Ma Teng rushed ahead of everyone, saluted respectfully, and said solemnly:
"General, I haven't done any meritorious service since I defected. Now that the army has arrived in Guzang, let me call the battle. If I can make meritorious service, I can repay the general's kindness!"

Hearing this, Li Wenhou looked at Ma Teng's tall and burly figure, and being a famous general, he felt that letting him go to call the battle would also have a deterrent effect, so he waved his hand and said:
"Show momentum, don't let people look down upon you!"

Ma Teng was overjoyed when he heard the words, and bowed his hands again and said:
"Follow the order, don't worry, the general, you will definitely not disappoint the general!"

At this time, right next to Li Wenhou, Li Yao added:
"Sima was also listening to the discussion in the tent before. What should I say? Sima must know!"

Ma Teng turned his head and looked over, his eyes were full of admiration, and he said very respectfully to Li Yao:

"I know, use intimidation and force to force people to open the city and surrender!"

Immediately Ma Teng left the army formation, holding a spear in his hand, and riding a tall horse under him, ran to the outside of Guzang City, looked up, and then shouted in a loud voice:
"Longxi Ma Teng is here, the defenders in the city dare to go out and fight me!"

Ma Teng's body, after putting on a set of armor, was already majestic and imposing, but now he yelled loudly, and he seemed even more calm and majestic.

The defenders at the top of the city were already frightened by the iron cavalry outside the city. Now that they heard this, they kept retreating, and at the same time lowered their heads.

As for Huang Jun, when he heard Ma Teng's name, he frowned as if he was thinking, and then boldly asked aloud:
"The general's surname is Ma. I don't know where he came from?"

As for Ma Teng under the city, he couldn't help straightening his chest, and said loudly again:

"I'm not a general. I'm General Fubo, after Ma Yuan, and now I'm under General Li's command, and I'm serving as the commander of the army!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the city was talking about it. General Fubo Ma Yuan is quite famous, especially in Liangzhou. He made great military exploits in the process of pacifying Longyou when the Eastern Han Dynasty was founded.

Longyou refers to the right side of Longshan Mountain.

Qin's Longyou is Longxi, and Han's Longyou is Longxi and Tianshui. Now Tianshui is changed to Hanyang.

Even if the Ma family is in decline now, as long as Ma Teng says he is Ma Yuan, he will still be very influential in Longyou and Liangzhou.

For example, Huang Jun, he was born in the Huang family in Jiuquan, such a person of extraordinary background always valued status more.

Even Ma Teng, a duke's family, is in decline now, but even this person has defected to Li Wenhou, and even if he chooses to surrender, it is not unacceptable.

At this time, Ma Teng found that no one was going out of the city to fight, so he raised his gun and shouted:
"Why didn't anyone go out of the city to fight? Could it be that there are no warriors in Guzang anymore!"

When Ma Teng said this, everyone in the city blushed, and their eyes were full of indignation. No one could calmly accept such name-calling scolding.

But is anyone calling for a fight?

No!

So Ma Teng was even more presumptuous:

"Fighting and not fighting, surrendering and not surrendering, what is the reason? Could it be that I am waiting for my [-] troops to arrive, crush Gu Zang, and capture and kill you all!"

As soon as these words came out, Huang Jun was horrified when he heard it. He didn't have time to think too much, so he stepped forward and leaned against the city wall, waved his arms, and said hastily:
"Don't attack the city, I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender... I am Huang Jun, the prefect of Wuwei, and I am willing to open the city gate and surrender!"

Ma Teng felt relieved, now that Gu Zang surrendered without a fight, for himself, it should be regarded as a small contribution. Thinking of Li Wenhou bestowing him with a sword and armor, let him join the Yi Cong Battalion, serve as the commander of the army, and still lead the [-] cavalry... He was finally able to repay such a kindness.

But at the top of the city, after Huang Jun shouted his willingness to surrender, the people on the left and right did not persuade them, and they even breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, with such a small amount of money a month, it is really not worthwhile to work hard, at least you need a captain, a corporal leader, to receive your salary. Those ordinary soldiers are all conscripted to serve in the military.

The Eastern Han Dynasty was a combination of conscription system and recruitment system. Except for the Five Schools of the Northern Army or the Eighth Army of the West Garden, the other Han armies basically performed military service. They were recruited before the war and disbanded after the war. They relied on rewards of money and land.

creak!creak!creak!

As the city gate gradually opened, Ma Teng volunteered to lead someone to take over the city defense. No accidents were encountered, and Huang Jun also sincerely surrendered, probably out of fear.

In Guzang city, in the government office!
Li Wenhou sat in the main seat, while Huang Jun was trembling. Although he retained a trace of decency and did not kneel down and beg for mercy, he also saluted respectfully, not daring to have the slightest rebellion:

"General, please see that we used to be officials in the same dynasty. If you can spare my life and let me go home, I will be very grateful!"

Sitting there, Li Wenhou leaned forward, propped his elbows on his thighs, once again assumed that oppressive posture, and then said indifferently:

"I want to survive, I want to go home, don't I want to continue to be an official and keep my wealth!"

Hearing this, Huang Jun's eyes lit up immediately. Who doesn't want to continue to be an official, who doesn't want to keep wealth, so he became more respectful:

"Can the general speak clearly?"

Thinking of what Li Yao said, he could give some favorable treatment in exchange for the surrender of all the four counties in Hexi, so Li Wenhou said loudly:

"You can continue to be the prefect of Wuwei, and then order the rest of the county towns to open the city and surrender, and then hand over the county soldiers and county soldiers to me. I will organize and continue to fight Zhangye. In addition, all the treasuries will be opened, and the materials in them will be used as military supplies!"

Hearing this, Huang Jun was very surprised:
"Do you still want to fight Zhangye?"

It turned out that it wasn't just fighting Wuwei, Huang Jun suddenly felt malicious:
"Since I'm having a hard time, then no one should think about it!"

Finally he said with a smile on his face:
"Willing to serve the general, I will do my best to help the general complete the conquest. As long as I am the prefect of Wuwei, Wuwei will obey the general's order!"

Now it was Li Wenhou's turn to be surprised. This Huang Jun not only surrendered quickly, but also pledged his allegiance very quickly. I don't know if it is reliable or not. Anyway, first take down all the four counties in Hexi and take away their military power, and we will talk about it later.

Finally Li Wenhou smiled:

"Okay, very good, you will still be the prefect of Wuwei in the future, get ready to make arrangements now!"

Huang Jun also quickly entered the state:
"Follow the order!"
