Chapter 286 An dare to deceive me
With Ma Chao's support, Chen Qun and others' battle in Xiangwu went even smoother. On the other hand, Han Sui heard that Ma Chao was so treacherous, and couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of blood.
"Zhu Zi! How dare you do this, how dare you do this!"
Han Sui didn't want to take Ma Chao with him when he sent troops this time, but because Ma Chao's military strength and fame were very strong, if he cooperated with him, Han Sui made Cheng Gongying formulate this tactic.
Unexpectedly, Ma Chao had just gained benefits from Han Sui, so he immediately took over Chen Qun and said that he wanted to demarcate Han Sui's boundary and cut the mat. You can occupy your Xiliang and Ji County in the east. This area of Ji County is my territory.
Han Sui recurred throughout his life, but when he encountered Ma Chao's more recurring things, he had no choice. He was so angry that he jumped up and his dizziness in his mind made him almost unstable.
A bastard!
A sir!
Insects!
When Han Sui was young, he was also a famous scholar in Liangzhou. He had a good knowledge and mind.
He was initially forced to follow the thief, but later he discovered that the world was in chaos and the man collapsed, so he plucked up his courage to accumulate his strength.
In Han Sui's own heart, he was actually no different from Cao Cao. Over the years, he has grown stronger and stronger, restrained enough and taken care of the interests of all parties. But as he grows older, he is no longer the young man he used to be, but his dreams are getting farther and farther away...
The time he was in Guanzhong before, he thought he was close to victory, but Yunshan's divine weapon completely destroyed all this. He learned from his mistakes and the goal this time was only to sweep Liangzhou, but he didn't expect that he was hit by Ma Chao again at the beginning.
Han Sui is nearly 70 years old. The failure of his period gives him a little courage to make a comeback, but Ma Chao's repeated betrayals seem to have all his energy drained. He can only look up at the sky in confusion, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Looking at Cheng Gongying beside him with a look of concern, he asked in a weak voice:
"Bohua, how about I go to Zhang Lu?"
"Ah?" Cheng Gongying was shocked. He never thought that Han Sui would say such words.
Han Sui was defeated twice before. He could always keep his posture as a noble soldier and wait for the opportunity to rise again in the future. What happened to him this time? He actually said something like he wanted to surrender to Zhang Lu?
Han Sui sighed with a lonely face:
"I am old and now I am separated from relatives and have fewer relatives. It is better to leave here now and go to Zhang Lu to enjoy my old age."
Cheng Gongying shook her head quickly:
"The general has been in charge of troops for decades and is a famous hero in the world. Even though he is defeated, he will not abandon his subordinates and seek others.
Zhang Lu is not the ruler. If there is another enemy attack in the future, Zhang Lu will definitely do the same.
In my opinion, it is better to stick to Longxi and Liangzhou. At worst, we can demarcate Ma Chao.
I heard that Yunshan was about to return, and he was the general's son-in-law at least. It would be better for the general to write to Chen Qun, saying that the general understood them and was willing to support the Han Dynasty with General Yun, so as to alienate Ma Chao and Chen Qun.
Even if the general cannot succeed, don’t ask Ma Chao to succeed!”
Han Sui was shocked and couldn't help but clench his fists slowly.
"What you said is reasonable. Ma Chao is really despicable and shameless. Even if I accomplish nothing, I will never let him succeed!"
Han Sui cheered up his spirits, washed his face with cold water, personally rode his horse to the two armies, threw the handwritten letter he had just written to Yan Xing, and asked him to hand it to Chen Qun-
Yan Xing was embarrassed to refuse when he delivered the letter in public, mainly because this matter would definitely make Ma Chao know.
With Ma Chao's temper, he must ask for letters to check it out, and then it will be a great opportunity to disagree with them.
Han Sui wrote very politely in his letter to Chen Qun, saying that it was just a misunderstanding before. Since the misunderstanding has been eliminated, there is no need for both sides to meet in war.
This time, the uprising was to stand up for the good son-in-law Yunshan. Now that such a thing happens, there is no need for both sides to fight each other. It is better to take a step back.
Han Sui retreated his troops first and no longer continued to compete for Xiangwu. Chen Qun would go wherever he wanted. If Chen Qun still needed help in the future, Han Sui would definitely help him wholeheartedly for the sake of his good son-in-law Yunshan.
Chen Qun pinched the letter, smacked his lips gently, and asked Yan Xing:
"Who do you think this is the idea?"
"Who else besides Cheng Gongying?" Yan Xing said helplessly, "Cheng Gong Bohua is resourceful and is Han Sui's confidant. With this person here, it is really difficult to deal with."
Chen Qun sighed helplessly: "Let's take a step by step, I hope Tanzhi can come back soon."
.
Guan Ping led his army to Guanzhong with fast horses.
As the battle unfolded, various military newspapers began to pass on to the back like snowflakes. Various messages were intertwined and it was difficult to clearly understand what was happening ahead.
But the only thing that can be confirmed is that Ding Fei did suffer a major failure, and Ma Chao and Han Sui attacked again.
Ma Chao and Han Sui's reputation was too strong. The two of them were defeated and this time they recruited a large number of Qiang and Hu, which was very powerful for a while.
The people of Guanzhong remembered the fear of being dominated by a group of bandits, so they helped the elderly and children to flee their homes, and even gave up the wheat that was growing well and were forced to embark on the road to escape.
Guo Huai was still young when he was in Guanzhong last time. Now, seeing so many people fleeing their homes, he felt depressed and couldn't help but rush over, grabbed an old man's arm, and said loudly:
"Why do you want to leave? The imperial court's heavenly soldiers have arrived, and the thieves are still in Liangzhou. Why do you want to leave?"
The old man looked sad and looked at Guo Huai wearing armor. He shouted angrily with grief and anger:
"It's all Cao Pi!"
"Well……"
This answer blocked Guo Huai on the spot. It was said that the people of Guanzhong were more heroic than others. Isn’t this too... heroic?
The old man smiled particularly sadly. He stared at the long knife around Guo Huai's waist and raised his head high and said:
"Yes, it's Cao Pi's fault!
I am seventy-three this year and have seen the chaos in the world back then.
I have seen Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Guo Si, Han Sui, Ma Teng, Ma Chao, and Lu Bu. Guanzhong has been in chaos for many years. The tombs of the late emperors of the Han Dynasty were bloodbathed by the thieves. The dignity of the court has long disappeared. Guanzhong has long been no longer owned by the Han Dynasty for so many years."
"Before, Han Sui and Ma Chao rebelled, Zhong Yao, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren fled, only General Yun went against the will of heaven, defended Chang'an to the death, and finally defeated the powerful enemy and returned the peace in Guanzhong!"
"But what did Cao Pi do? General Yun defeated Ma Chao and Han Sui, and it was the time when he swept Liangzhou in one go and restored the Han Dynasty.
But Cao Pi actually asked Ding Fei to replace General Yun. When did Ma Chao and Han Sui be afraid of Ding Fei? Now that the army is sweeping Liangzhou, Guanzhong is about to be out of order. We have long lost confidence in the court and have to leave our hometown!
You generals come and go freely. If we don’t leave first, should we repeat the same mistakes and be trampled into mud in Guanzhong?"
Guo Huai was speechless and could only slowly lower his arms. The old man glared at him with resentment, and was about to call his relatives to embark on the road to escape. Suddenly someone in the crowd exclaimed:
"General Yun! Are you General Yun?"
Guan Ping slowly got off the horse and nodded to everyone quite solemnly. Guo Huai retreated aside in shame, allowing Guan Ping to walk in front of everyone.
"My elders, Yunshan is ashamed. This time I come back, and I won't leave if I don't wipe out all the thieves. Please believe me and give Yunshan a chance.
I promise not to let the thieves come back again this time!”
Yunshan's words were no more tricky than Guo Huai, but as soon as he said that, the people around him immediately exclaimed bursts of exclamations.
Under Guo Huai's surprise gaze, these people fell to the ground one after another.
They helped the elderly and the young without saying a word, but their faces clearly showed a completely different look from before.
That's hope.
Hope can be seen in their faces!
Those faces that were previously panicked, confused and fearful actually ignited hope at the same time.
"General Yun is back! General Yun is back!"
"It's General Yun! As long as General Yun comes back, we will be saved!"
"We must never let Ma Chao and Han Sui enter our Guanzhong again! Follow General Yun to kill the enemy!"
No matter men, women, young and old, everyone was really happy when they saw Yunshan returning. They were determined to escape from their homes and bowed to both sides of the road to welcome the hero's return.
In this incident, Guo Huai couldn't help but remember his previous experience in Funiu Mountain.
The bandits under Huo Jun were all forced to hide under Huo Jun's command because they were dissatisfied with the tyranny of Cao's army.
When Guo Huai attacked them, they fought to the end with their lives to protect their land. The soldier who ignored many spears and used his body to open the way forward for his comrades-in-arms' expressions were still vivid in his mind.
Guo Huai could also feel that all the people there wanted to die. That battle made him feel the support of the people for the first time in his life.
Fortunately, this time, he stood on the side of the people's hearts.
Seeing that Guo Huai was Yunshan's comrade-in-arms, the people all looked at admiringly, and many people even spontaneously stuffed the dry food in their hands into the hands of Guo Huai and his soldiers, begging them to protect Guanzhong with a choked voice and defeat the powerful enemy.
These soldiers who came from Xu Du were depressed because of the unfavorable attack on Huo Jun, and were very tired of war. They were depressed when they came to Guanzhong, and would run away at any time if they found something wrong.
But the scene in front of them really unexpectedly.
All the people changed their previous hostile attitude and actually welcomed them by their families, and delivered a few dry food to their hands.
This is simply the treatment of Xu Du's elders.
No, even many elders may not be so sincere and polite to them, nor will they place all hope on them.
At this moment, all of these men felt that they had a heavy responsibility on their shoulders, and it seemed that their blood was gradually boiling.
"Are you afraid, General Guo?" Guan Ping asked Guo Huai in front of him.
A hint of sharpness appeared in Guo Huai's eyes and he said loudly:
"The previous attack on Huo Jun was unfavorable because it was not investigated at the end and lost people's hearts.
Today, Guo must strictly abide by military discipline and never let the people of Guanzhong down. The general will give Guo another chance to kill the enemy!"
Guan Ping was also very excited.
The reason why Cao Cao was powerful back then was that he accommodated a large number of talented and moral people from all over the world in the name of the banner of the Han Dynasty.
Now, these people are gradually gathering around them. At least what Guo Huai and the others are doing now is not for Cao Pi, but for the people of Guanzhong who are unable to bear the burden.
And this great dynasty that was staggering and seemed to be on the verge of death.
