Chapter 1005 is all here
Zhao Xi spoke impassionedly and asked for help from hundreds of miles away, but that was just talk.
In fact, he just walked a few miles and set up a stronghold on the road, that's all.
However, the location of Rile, the county seat, is indeed critical. Together with Jiedan (today Jiedan), it is one of the two major nodes in the Hexi Corridor. Troops stationed here can effectively block Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, Jinchang, Xihai, and Gaochang. County reinforcements.
The terrain is like this. Unless you cross the desert, you can't get around Xijun.
This is actually a major flaw in Liangzhou’s terrain.
The corridor is too narrow, and the counties are lined up. When the enemy comes from the west, it's fine, and they can resist it step by step. But if they attack from the north and south, it will be easily cut off, and the operation will not work well, and they will not be able to fully mobilize their strength. They can only fight on their own.
Not to mention, the Qilian Mountains also divided Liangzhou into two parts. When the political center is located in Lingbei, the Lingnan part naturally has a centrifugal tendency. It is better to reset one state and separate them.
To the east of Xijun is Wuxing County, which is experiencing a brief period of chaos.
Ji Yan, the leader of the Yanzhi branch, suddenly took action and imprisoned the prefect Song Xiu, and sent a message to all counties, asking him to surrender to Daliang.
The remaining seven counties responded in different ways. Some responded directly, some waited and waited, and some cursed but did not move.
In the end, less than a thousand riders rode eastward and were intercepted by the troops of Beigong and Jia, the powerful Liangzhou clan. Only a few dozen people fled into Guzang City in embarrassment.
Zhang Jun had just recently been disturbed by the defeat of Dong Guang and Song Ji. He was furious when he heard the news and ordered the execution of generals Jia Qian and Xin Tao's family to warn those with evil intentions.
When more than a hundred heads of the Jia and Xin families were hung at various city gates, the defenders were certainly frightened, but their morale also plummeted because they knew that too many people outside the city had launched a rebellion.
Then, without any surprise, rumors began to spread in the city, and people were panicked.
On April 22, at the northern foot of the Qilian Mountains southeast of Guzang, the sky was filled with smoke and dust, and troops gathered.
The miscellaneous soldiers and horses who were fighting outside the city ran away one after another, and then looked at this army with frightened eyes.
The core is the five thousand Xiongnu cavalry of Jin tribe - after the fall of Liu Han, Jin Zhun integrated the remaining troops of Jin, Qiao, Huyan, Tuge and other tribes to become the new Jin tribe.
In addition, there were Tu Ge (descendants of Jin Rixi), Anding Lu Shuihu, Di Qiang, and Xianbei from all the counties in Guanzhong, with a total army of 30,000 horses.
After crossing the Yellow River, Wuwei, Lu, Shuihu, and Xianbei tribes all came to surrender. A mighty cavalry of 20,000 to 30,000 people, all under the command of Jin Zhun, drove cattle and sheep all the way west, rushed to the southeast of Guzang, and even defeated Cangsong. , Yici two counties, completely uprooting the eastern barrier of Guzang.
Subsequently, Brigadier Jin divided his troops into two.
The mixed cavalry gathered along the way to besiege Guzang City, intercept and kill the messengers, and cut off foreign aid.
The Hu cavalry from Guanzhong who followed him went south in large numbers and rushed directly to the side and rear of Hongchi Ridge.
That afternoon, he climbed a mountain to overlook the battlefield so he could better mobilize his army.
At this time, the oncoming killing sound echoed through the valley from the south.
The "gold" flag was flying high, and several infantry and cavalry troops were arrayed in the wide river valley.
At a rough count, there were almost 20,000 people.
If nothing unexpected happened, they would be the government troops such as the left and right Jinwu Guards, the left and right Yulin Guards, the right Xiao Cavalry Guards and even the Heijin Youying.
Jin Zhun found a large bluestone and prepared to sit down and watch the battle.
Dou Yuzhen, the guard of Huangbaicheng City, was very discerning. He wiped the stone with his sleeve and asked Jin Zhun to take a seat.
For some reason, he was not very scared when he saw the emperor, and was even a little jealous that he and Ke Dun spent the night together. But when he saw Jin Jun, he seemed to be facing a poisonous snake.
It’s really evil!
Liang Aguang, Lu Songduo, and Jin Yu were also watching the battle.
Among the group of barbarians, there is one person who is more obvious, that is Yinmi Zhenjiang Yangdan.
Most of his soldiers were Di Qiang and Xiongnu, and there were also some Yang clan tribesmen. The whole army of two to three thousand people came with them.
Unlike others, he is not afraid of Jin Zhun.
Jin Zhun didn't want to talk to this guy because Yang Dan was quite crazy.
Jin Zhun even suspected that he was sick. There was no need for a normal person like him to argue with a madman.
"Jin Du attacked very fiercely." The corners of Yang Dan's mouth were slightly raised, not sure if it was appreciation or sarcasm, maybe it was the former.
People like Kim Jong have become a faction of their own in the DPRK.
In the Zhenxi General's Mansion in Chang'an, there are dozens of staff from Guandong and Guanxi, and hundreds of guests from the Jin family. I also have a wide network of contacts in the military, and I know many down-and-out scholars...
In the past, it was always said that someone depends on someone, but now Jin Zheng is a towering tree that people can rely on.
Aren't all the people present here, including Jin Zhun, subject to his control on weekdays?
Therefore, Jin Zhun did not watch, and sent his number one fierce general Ping Xian to lead three thousand cavalry, over the mountains from the Liangzhou barracks, and rushed into Lingnan, preparing to attack the south road army from front to back and attack an enemy camp in the field. military.
The battle has been going on for a while.
Surprisingly, the Liangzhou soldiers were still supporting and did not show signs of defeat.
Under the large banner with the word "gold", the imperial flag is constantly rising, and messengers are rushing back and forth.
The soldiers of the Jinwu Guards on the left and right rushed up like waves, while the Liangzhou soldiers remained motionless.
The right cavalry cavalry charged quickly to cover the retreat of the soldiers.
After the left and right Jinwu guards reorganized, they launched a second charge, and the enemy's formation remained as strong as before.
Ping's cavalry arrived at the right time and attacked from the side and rear. Arrows rained down for a while. The Liangzhou army's formation finally wavered.
The left and right Jinwuwei formations took the opportunity to press down and launched the third and probably the last charge.
Under Jin Zheng's banner, several more imperial flags were raised.
The left and right Habayashi guards also joined the battle.
The left and right Jinwu guards are in the center, the left and right Yulin guards come out from the front of the two wings, and the Heijin right camp is in the back to support them.
I don't know whether it was Xin Yan's tribe or some other private soldiers of a wealthy family. They galloped on their horses and strangled the cavalry of the Liangzhou Army.
For a moment, the sound of killings on the battlefield was loud, and countless men were furious, squandering their lives wantonly in this remote and desolate valley.
Jin Zhun's second cavalry unit joined the battlefield.
Jin Ming, the general of Caobi Town, saw the opportunity and led 3,000 cavalry into the battlefield. They poured in through a gap in the Liangzhou Army and then dug in desperately, constantly widening the gap and creating chaos. In an instant, they disrupted the enemy's rear formation. A person fell on his back.
Under such a siege, the Liangzhou Army finally couldn't hold on anymore. The two rear formations collapsed first, and then the most elite front army formation. A total of 9,000 people were beaten and fled in all directions.

"Dong Guang was defeated." Jin Zhun stood up and watched silently.
"It is said that Liangzhou's horses are rampant in the world, but it is actually a bit exaggerated." Yang Dan said: "I think Liangzhou's infantry are more resistant to hard fighting. They were charged three times by the left and right Jinwu guards before they collapsed."
"The Jinwu Guards have never fought against the Liangzhou Army before." Lu Songduo shook his head and said: "When did the Central Plains have so many spear throwers? When they charged into the formation, the short spears roared in and penetrated the armor. Have you seen it? There is nothing like this in Lingnan. Soldiers are only found in Wuwei, Dunhuang, Jiuquan and other counties. Large shields that are taller than a man, roaring spears, and strong bows and horses are Zhang Jun's old skills. It is a pity that they were destroyed in one battle. ”
While a few people were talking, Liangzhou's remnant soldiers on the battlefield had been divided and surrounded, and they were kneeling down in groups with abandoned weapons.
The Dong Guang and Song Yi armies, which represented the strongest force in Hexi, were destroyed.
The left and right Yulin guards took the lead in rushing to Hongchiling. The more than a thousand enemy troops who stayed at the camp had no fighting spirit and all surrendered.
It didn't take long for someone to offer the heads of Dong Guang and Song Yi, and the war was settled.
"Let's go to Guzang." Jin Zhun stopped looking, stood up and ordered.
On the night of the 23rd, Jin Zhun's banner appeared outside Guzang City.
During the day on the 24th, the Youxiao Cavalry Guard acting as the vanguard also arrived outside the city.
The sergeants carried the heads of Dong Guang and Song Yi with spears and walked in a circle outside the city.
On the 25th, more than 6,000 prisoners were taken outside the city, crying and howling loudly.
Gu Zang was very frightened.

After more than ten days of trekking, Liangzhou Zhizhong engaged in Yin Dan finally arrived in Chang'an.
Shao Xun had been stationed here for many days and was about to set off westward. When he heard that the Liangzhou envoy had arrived, he met him by the Luziyuan Pond.
Yin Dan sat respectfully on the bed, and spoke eloquently: "The one who understands the principles of the world lies in Zhenjing Fanping and harmonizes with the distant country; the one who is loyal lies in the Pizan royal family and ranks among the nobility."
"Since the Yongjia period, the Central Plains has been in chaos. Zhang Xiping is an orphan and has great virtues. He is just a short distance away from the river and the Long River, and the country has a huge screen. He uses virtuous people to pastor Li Yuan, and to protect our teacher from those who are suffering from bears. Travel. Then Xiaoxiao made a new start, and the bandits escaped. This skill can show the sun and the moon -"
"Zhang Xiping defends any side and has inherent merit." Shao Xun played with the white jade wine glass in his hand and asked: "But what merit does Zhang Jun have?"
A pair of white and tender hands took away the wine glass and poured some more wine for him.
After doing all this, Jin Yuehua sat quietly beside Shao Xun.
Jin Yuehui sat on the other side, lowering his head shyly.
The little girl is not old, but she is not short in stature. When she is sitting upright on her knees, her breasts are protruding. When she holds her slender waist, her originally flat and smooth lower abdomen slightly bulges, which slightly destroys this beauty, but it is also The greenness and immaturity on the little girl's face were washed away, leaving a somewhat mature look.
Shao Xun loved watering this tender and tight young bud.
Yin Dan didn't dare to look at the two sisters. After hearing Shao Xun's question, he added: "My lord has great trust in the heavenly family and protects Shuomo Ning. He inherits the strong wind from his father and ancestors and caress the west of the Sui River. While working hard, he is always afraid. Lost and fallen; when working diligently, there is always a fear of being unethical. The weather of the three camps in the twelve counties of Liangzhou is getting better and better, and the people are happy. This is the contribution to protecting the environment and the people."
"Since you have achieved merit, why not change your banner and become an official in the court?" Shao Xun asked in return.
"The minister guarding the screen does not dare to leave lightly." Yin Dan replied.
"After all, I still can't let go." Shao Xun sneered: "I have arrived in Chang'an and sent half a million troops. How can I retreat with a few words from you? I am not in a hurry. My sons have already captured Jincheng and are approaching Hongchi. Jin Zhun He also defeated Song Ji, The powerful people in the desert. The loyal people in the three camps of the twelve counties are eager to extricate themselves; the lost people are all terrified. What's my hurry? If Zhang Jun is not in a hurry, I can see him within a month. ”
Yin Dan listened and remained silent.
"I accept the beauty of Loulan." Shao Xun said: "But I prefer the strong men of Liangzhou. If Zhang Jun knew the opportunity, he would have surrendered now. It is his contribution to retain a little more of Liangzhou's vitality. Don't lose the rich man. If you resist stubbornly, you will be guilty of a serious crime, and you will be punished with an axe. In this world, no one is worthy of my condescension. If you are given the opportunity, who is to blame?"
After that, he waved his hand to signal the messenger to leave.
Unable to do anything, he could only bow and leave.
Emperor Liang spoke very clearly.
He came down from Liangzhou and his whole family was safe.
You can't blame him for not keeping his word if he fights to the end.
After returning to Guanyi, Yin Dan thought about it and worried about delaying the opportunity, so he immediately wrote a letter and sent it back quickly.
Jingzhao Prefect Zheng Shida was ordered to order fifty riders to escort along the way to ensure that the letter was delivered to Wuwei City safely and quickly.
