The people of Liangzhou are obedient to the strong. Song Jian was originally an extremely strong person, but now he was stabbed to death by the stronger Zhang Xiu.

In front of the two armies, most of the Song Jian's soldiers and horses did not dare to move. But a small number of people, after being silent, planned to ride away.

Without waiting for Zhang Xiu's orders, Hu Che'er and Blue Pearl led the light cavalry to catch up and kill these people cleanly.

Zhang Xiu rode back to the formation, and said to everyone with a smile: "I thought that I would make noise to attack the city, and the ink will be painted." Unexpectedly, this person came to give away the head. Now there are cities, men, money, and food. Although Han Sui and Ma Teng chased after them, they couldn't do anything. "

Immediately march into the city and defend the city. "

No.

Jia Xu, Xi Zhicai, Pang De and others made a loud promise, and then coerced the Qiang people and the old Song Jian department, and arrived south to Caohan City together.

After Yang Gui, who was defending the city, saw Song Jian's corpse, he was frightened and hurriedly opened the city and surrendered.

The city was well managed by Song Jian, and the city was strong and tall, and it was also very wide. Although Zhang Xiu brought a lot of people this time, he could still squeeze it out.

After Zhang Xiu entered the city, he first sent part of the infantry army, and had four city gates, the city treasury and granary, and killed Song Jian's family.

Then the officials were summoned and the list of people was released.

Now in the cold winter, there is no agricultural production. Zhang Xiu took control of the granary and stabilized the situation, and there was no chaos among the people in the city.

That night, Zhang Xiu slept peacefully in Song Jian's mansion.

After getting up the next day, he had breakfast with Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu, who also lived in the mansion, and then came to Song Jian's study to sit down and discuss,

"The household registration and official roster in this Caohan City have been read by both of you." The population of the city alone is as high as 50,000 or 60,000, plus the villages scattered nearby. There are at least 100,000 people, and the Baiqiang tribe is almost 200,000. If you want to achieve great things, you should be people-oriented. I plan to forcibly relocate the people to Tuntian near Xiangping with grain as a hostage after Ma Teng and Han Sui leave, what do you two think?"

Zhang Xiuxiao looked at Jia Xu and Xi Zhicai and said.

There is no need to say much about the drama Zhicai.

Along the way, Jia Xu has also seen Zhang Xiu's strength. He is dozens of years old, and he has grandchildren. The Jia family has been an official eunuch for generations, and he is still a white body (no official position).

The main thing is that he considers himself talented.

All in all, there are no people who have talent and no appreciation for themselves. Zhang Xiu is strong and strong, and now it is a troubled time, Jia Xu fell in love with Zhang Xiu's potential stock at a glance. I plan to take advantage of this southeast wind to soar. Naturally, I am very concerned about Zhang Xiu's career.

And he and Xi Zhicai vaguely felt that Zhang Xiu had different ambitions.

People-oriented, accomplishing great things?

This ambition can be said to be obvious.

"I thought I could. Jia Xu first said to Zhang Xiu, and then explained: "Now the midwinter is about to pass. Liangzhou also needs to reclaim the fields. Ma Teng and Han Sui pursued the troops, but there was no benefit, so they would inevitably retreat to Liangzhou and go back to reclaim the fields. The general can lead the Qiang and Han 200,000 people back to Xiangping City, which is the beginning of spring, and you can rest assured that you can Tuntian.

"With the general's military exploits, it is not a problem to be a county guard. You can even find a position as a captain and hold the power of the army.

"Now is a troubled time, as long as you have military power in your hands, you can rise to the top.

Xi Zhicai nodded beside him, and also arched his hand to Zhang Xiu: "General, what Wen He said is very true. "

In fact, the two have talked in private, and they are both smart people who are good at planning. After coming and going, they became friends.

"Captain Huqiang?" Zhang Xiu's eyes narrowed, and he knew what to expect. Then he nodded and said, "Okay." Then prepare for the migration of these 200,000 people. It's a lot of hard work to trouble the two gentlemen. "

No. Jia Xu and Xi Zhicai agreed together. Where did the hard work come from? It is rare for the two to meet someone like Zhang Xiu, who has been suffering from nectar for a long time, and they can't wait to do more.

At this moment, Dian Wei walked in from outside. bent over Zhang Xiu and reported: "General, visit the Malay newspaper." Ma Teng and Han Sui's cavalry had already reached a place about fifteen miles north of Caohan.

"They're really after it. Zhang Xiu now has everything, so he is naturally not afraid, and after sneering, he got up and said, "Let Blue Pearl restrain the Qiang soldiers and take care of Song Jian's old department." Ordered Pound to give way to the four gates, but not to be too nervous. Ma Teng and Han Sui will never attack the city. "

Cavalry siege? What are you kidding

? Do they have heavy siege equipment? I'm afraid they don't even have ordinary ladders?"

Dian Wei agreed, went out of the door of the study, and told a personal soldier to go down and inform Pound.

Soon after, martial law was imposed in the city, and Pound's infantry marched up the city walls, with the largest number of defenders in the north of the city. Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu, Dian Wei, Xi Zhicai and others also climbed the city wall to watch the movement in the north.

On the northern horizon, a small dot appeared first, and then the soldiers and horses were vertical and horizontal, the flags were waved, and the cavalry was countless.

"General, are you beating the drum?" Pound turned to look at Zhang Xiu, bowed and asked.

"Not necessarily. Cease all activities. Zhang Xiu waved his hand and said with a smile.

Under the city. The cavalry forwards of Ma Teng and Han Sui stopped at a distance of about three hundred paces near the city of Caohan, and the horses neighed.

The cavalrymen drew their swords at their waists and put them on strict alert, as if Zhang Xiu, the "Shenweitian General", would kill from the city.

Soon after, the flags of "horse" and "Han" waved, and slowly came to the front. Ma Teng and Han Sui looked at the city and stared deeply at Zhang Xiu on the city.

The golden armor and red robe are Zhang Xiuye.

Zhang Xiu died down in the city and did not make a sound. But the soldiers' bows and arrows were wound, and the air of slaughter filled the sky.

Ma Teng and Han Sui did not attack the city under the city, but the cavalry drew their swords and held them in their hands and were on strict alert. Both sides are on guard, and they have no intention of making a move.

Song Jian was already dead, and Zhang Xiu occupied the city of Caohan. Now Zhang Xiu has many soldiers and horses, and there is plenty of grain and grass.

Judging from the situation, Ma Teng and Han Sui should not have come to the city. But maybe it's out of obsession. Ma Teng and Han Sui didn't miss this distance, and they really chased down the city.

Now after taking a look at Zhang Xiu, the two of them have their wishes.

"Brother Xian. Now the tiger can only be let go back to the mountain. I only hope that this person will not live long and die of illness early. Otherwise, we won't be able to sleep. Ma Teng withdrew his eyes and sighed to Han Sui beside him.

"I hope so. Han Sui also sighed, his face showing a sad expression. Zhang Xiu is hateful, but also terrible.

"Brother. When we go back, we won't fight with each other. There are also the rest of the Liangzhou military horse leaders. We divide the territory, settle the fields with peace of mind, and build the city. Friendly contacts with the Qiang people. The private guards are strictly guarded. And rescue each other so as not to be broken by the imperial court.

Han Sui then further proposed.

"Good. Ma Teng agreed without any hesitation. They used to be offensive and never scared.

This rebellion also hit as far as Chen Cang. But now Zhang Xiu only relied on thousands of people to go deep into Liangzhou, which made them jump around.

Now that Zhang Xiu has more people in his hands, it is more difficult to deal with, and he has the support of the imperial court behind him.

It's like letting a tiger go back to the mountain, and they have to be steady.

After some conversation, Ma Teng and Han Sui did not hesitate, and immediately ordered someone to blow the horn, and in the continuous sound of the horn, led their cavalry to the north.

Zhang Xiu has also seen it, and the future plan has also been formulated. It's time to go back to Tuntian and build the city.

On the castle. Zhang Xiu and the generals looked coldly at Ma Teng and Han Sui leading the cavalry, rolling up the dust in the sky and leaving quickly.

Zhang Xiu's heart also has her own considerations.

This time, he took advantage of the fact that Ma Teng and Han Sui's Ma Bu Army were fighting on the front line, and led thousands of people to run rampant in Liangzhou, fighting for thousands of miles, and getting stronger and stronger, which was actually a trick.

Ma Teng and Han Sui are still strong and strong, and they are not idle people.

For a long time, he was not qualified to attack and occupy Liangzhou. But he now has a population of 200,000 under his command, plus 20,000 yellow turban men and women in Xiangping City.

Ask for a county guard position, and you can be the chief regent.

If you have a position as a lieutenant, you can be the chief of the military.

At present, his command is also considered to be strong and strong, but he can rely on this official position to replace Dong Zhuo to guard Xiangping and confront Ma Teng and Han Sui.

Raise your own self-respect.

I really didn't expect things to come to this point. He was originally just waiting in Huaili, waiting for Zhongping for six years, Emperor Ling of Han died, and Dong Zhuo led his troops into Luoyang, opening the prelude to the struggle for hegemony.

He also got on Dong Zhuo's big boat, and worked together with his uncle Zhang Ji to get promoted and make a fortune, and finally became the master of one party.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ji died in Shangti, he came to Dong Zhuo's army, and moved to Liangzhou. Now he forced Han Sui and Ma Teng to retreat, beheaded countless generals under their command, and killed the traitor Song Jian.

It can also be regarded as an outstanding battle, with Dong Zhuo as a person, rewards are indispensable.

That's a good thing. In this way, he can accumulate more capital before the world goes to war. As soon as Dong Zhuo died, he became the strongest figure in Dong Zhuo's power, and when the time came, he learned from Li Dao and Guo Yan to capture Chang'an, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, control the Sili region, and train troops and horses, which was promising.

"First trim and reorganize the old Song Jian Department, Qiang soldiers. Half a month later, we headed east back to Xiangping City. Zhang Xiu slowly exhaled a long breath, turned his head, and said to everyone.

"No. The crowd roared in agreement.

After that, as Zhang Xiu ordered, he circled in the city of Caohan. Pang De was responsible for the reorganization of the Qiang soldiers and the old Song construction department.

Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu were in charge of civil affairs and migrating the people.

But occasionally, the two sides will cooperate with each other.

Zhang Xiu's method of relocating the people was very rude, but he sent troops to rob the rations of the people outside the city, so that they could not survive the winter.

Forcing the people to migrate with him.

No way, population is fundamental. And the people who recuperate here and live a prosperous life have no reason to follow him Zhang Xiu to Xiangping.

Zhang Xiu can't be soft-hearted, so he can only use such tough means.

But Zhang Xiu also restrained the soldiers, only grabbing rations, and not insulting or killing the people. Because Zhang Xiu's military discipline is strict and his prestige is high.

The soldiers all obeyed this military rule, and of course those who did not abide by military discipline were all killed by Zhang Xiu.
