Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 333 Xue Rengui flattened the four counties

Li Shanchang married Han Sui's daughter, but it didn't prevent him from doing things for Zhang Yi.During the Spring Festival, Li Shanchang and Han Sui's family spent together. The next day, he appointed Han Sui's son as a county captain and Yan Xing as the master.Originally, Yan Xing was Han Sui's son-in-law in history, but now the woman who married Yan Xing was married to Li Shanchang by Han Sui.

Of course Yan Xing didn't know about this, but he was grateful to Zhang Yi, so he readily accepted Li Shanchang's appointment, and expressed that he would do his best to help Li Shanchang.

Although Jincheng County is within Han Sui's sphere of influence, Yan Xing has his own influence. He himself is a handsome man from Xiliang, so Han Sui wants to win him over and marry his daughter to him.He is different from Pound. Pound is Ma Chao's general, while Yan Xing can make his own decisions.So Li Shanchang could win over Yan Xing, and Xue Rengui and others had only met Pang De, but they couldn't even say a few words.

Xue Rengui led the army northward, starting from the warriors and entering Wuwei County.This time he brought six or seven generals, one of them went east to attack Zu Li, and the large force attacked Naowei, and then went north to Shuyin to join them.Attack Pubi, Cangsong, Zhangye, Luanniao, and Tuci westward along the Great Wall until Guzang.

Since the turmoil in Liangzhou, it has been controlled by warlords.However, during this period of time, the Qiang people spread the story of Xue Rengui in Wudu to the whole Liangzhou. When the Qiang people heard that Xue Rengui's army was coming, they all sincerely surrendered.

The rest of the marshals gathered in Guzang, planning to have a decisive battle with Xue Rengui.They gathered tens of thousands of cavalry and charged Xue Rengui. As a result, the rain of arrows shot by Xue Rengui's crossbowmen was drowned, and they were scattered before they rushed to Xue Rengui's formation.

The marshals failed, and Xue Rengui regained Guzang.Xue Rengui sent Wang Ping to attack Xiutu, Xuanwei, and Wuwei to the north. After Xue Rengui waited for Zheng Mao to come over to take over the government affairs, he immediately marched west.After Xianmei, he entered Zhangye County, attacked Liqian, Fanhe, and Rile, and went to Zendan and Wulan to attack Zhangye County.One will attack Dichi.

After Hu Zong took over the political affairs of Zhangye County, Xue Rengui continued to advance westward, attacking Biaoshi, Leyi, Anmi, and Lufu from Zhaowu, and one general attacked Huishui.After waiting for Yan Pu to take over the political affairs, he continued to think westward, attacking Yanshou, Yumen, Qianqi, Shatou, entering Dunhuang County, starting from Yuanquan and Ming'an, attacking Guangzhi, Xiaogu, Dunhuang, Longle, and finally Yumen Pass.

This battle lasted for two months. More than 8000 people were killed, more than [-] horses, millions of cattle and sheep, and countless gold and silver treasures were obtained.

The northwest of Liangzhou is basically stable. Although Zhangye's vassal state has not yet conquered, Xue Rengui's military rations are almost used up, so he can only give up for the time being.

Now that it was early spring, Li Hongzhang began to prepare food and grass for Ma Chao, but Xue Rengui had to stop.

Xue Rengui has no choice. He really wants to do everything in one battle, but Ma Chao's matter is related to Guanzhong's strategy.Compared with the entire Guanzhong, Zhangye's vassal state is insignificant.After all, Zhangye's vassal state went deep into the desert, and it was difficult to supply, and the fertile soil in Guanzhong was thousands of miles away, so Xue Rengui could still tell which was more important.

If Li Shanchang hadn't stabilized Han Sui, Xue Rengui would have no chance to attack these four counties.Jincheng County can be said to contain the throat of these four counties. If it is unstable, these four counties will be in chaos.

When Han Sui rebelled, the prefect of Jiuquan directly rebelled, and the other three places also rebelled, not without reason.

Xue Rengui returned to Ji County, and Li Hongzhang immediately celebrated him.Although the attack on Jingzhou and Yizhou has contributed a lot, people subconsciously feel that the attack on Liangzhou has more credit because of the distance.

Look at the greatest feats since the Han Dynasty, all of which were the Northern Expedition to the Huns and the pacification of the Western Regions.Speaking of which, are they really more credited than fighting the world?
It is obviously impossible, but it has been highlighted in history books. This is because Vega is far away, and it is self-esteem that is at work.

In those remote places, because they didn't understand the Han Dynasty, they didn't respect the Han Dynasty. As a result, they were slapped in the face by the Han Dynasty. This kind of routine has been popular among people since ancient times.

Just like the idiom Yelang is arrogant, Yelang is just a small country, and it is nothing to mention to destroy him.But it was because King Yelang said that he had never heard of the Han Dynasty, so he became the laughing stock of the ages.

Besides Zhang Qian, Chen Tang and others, Zhang Qian relied on his own soldiers and horses to pacify the Western Regions, and Chen Tang fought only a small Hun faction, and his contribution was not great.

But when Zhang Qian arrived, he took more than 30 people with him and accomplished a major event that tens of thousands of people had accomplished. This is Zhang Qian's ability.

Chen Tang also said afterwards: Anyone who offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away!became the backbone of the Han people.

Xue Rengui pacified the four counties of Liangzhou without any major battles, and almost crushed them all the way.However, the trip was fruitful, and Li Hongzhang felt that Xue Rengui would definitely become a pillar general like Di Qing and Fu Youde in the future.

Indeed, when Zhang Yi learned that Xue Rengui had gained so much, he also promoted him to be a general seeking captives.And this official is not because of how many enemies he killed, but because of the horse.

More than 3 horses can arm nearly [-] cavalry.You must know that Zhang Yi now has [-] cavalry, but only less than [-] war horses, all of which were brought back from the north by Gan Ning.

The grain transported from Fangling was quickly sent to Ji County through Hanzhong.Although the road from Xiangyang to Hanzhong has been repaired, it is still difficult to walk.

However, Zhang Yi handed over the task of transporting grain to Zhuge Liang. Because Zhuge Liang had a lot of influence in the workshop and his wife reminded him, he made wooden cattle and horses in advance, saving a lot of transport capacity.

Many people call the so-called wooden ox and horse a wheelbarrow, but it is not.Wooden cows and flowing horses are two kinds of things, the way of transportation and the principle of movement are different.

Zhang Yi went to see it himself out of curiosity, but he didn't know the principle, just like he saw a car engine.

The movement principle of the wooden ox and horse is very unique, and it is difficult to create it without drawings and objects.I have to say that Zhuge Liang is really a wise man through the ages, and it is not easy to create something that will be difficult for future generations for thousands of years!
With wooden cattle and horses, the problem of transportation capacity on the mountain is solved, and the road consumption of food is much less.From the two places in Jingyang, 500 million dendrobiums of grain and grass were transported in the past, and there were more than 300 million dendrobiums left in Jixian County, which greatly saved the problem of no grain in Liangzhou.

Zhuge Liang also sent a lot of seeds and farm tools to help the land reclamation work in Hanyang and Longxi.

At the same time, Zhuge Liang also brought rewards to Xue Rengui and others, and also brought Zhang Yi's words, asking them to be patient for a while.
