Chapter 1010 January War


Chapter 1010 January War

Xianyu Hall is located in the southwest of Zhongcheng, so it is easy to hear the noise.

Zhang Jun was having lunch with his family. After learning about this, he put down his bowls and chopsticks on the spot and ordered his soldiers to wear armor for him.

His wife Yan clenched her fists tightly and looked at her husband worriedly.

Chang Shi Fanyi, who was invited to dine with him, also wiped his mouth, got up and chased after him for a few steps.

Amidst the sound of "ding ling clang", Zhang Jun put on his iron armor, hung up his bow and sword, and picked up a long spear, as if he was taking the lead and preparing to fight.

But his pale face and slightly trembling lips still showed the fear in his heart.

Unless death is imminent, anyone can be a hero or a man.

At the critical moment of life and death, thoughts are flying, and all kinds of thoughts that have been subconsciously ignored before flood into the heart, making people confused and confused.

If you can survive this hurdle, you have experienced life and death, and your spiritual will can reach a new level. If you can't survive it, that's it.

There were chaotic footsteps on the street.

After a while, someone was knocking on the door.

All the boy servants and soldiers in the courtyard lost their luster, and for a while, the sound of swords being drawn out of their scabbards could be heard.

There are also people standing behind the pillars, holding bows and arrows.

A group of swordsmen and shieldmen formed a horizontal formation, stepped forward, and stood behind the door. The officer turned to look at Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun calmed down and said: "Open the door."

"Creak!" The courtyard door was opened.

Zhang Jun took a look and saw that it was Yin Yuan and Song Ji.

"My lord, there are private soldiers of the Duan family in Nancheng who opened the door without authorization and came out making noise. They retreated after encountering the Liang soldiers." Yin Yuan reported: "General Han has sent people to set up barricades and suppress the Liang people on the street inside Duanmen. ”

After Yin Yuan finished speaking, Zhang Jun had not yet spoken, but Song Ji said: "My lord, the city tower is still in the hands of our army. The south city is unobstructed. As long as the bows and crossbows are fired, we can drive out all the Liang people. However, General Han will not Willing to do it.”

Zhang Jun ignored him, only looked at Yin Yuan and asked, "Can Nancheng be defended?"

"Liangfeng Gate is guarded by strong soldiers, and powerful crossbows have been raised to the top of the city. The central city is safe, but the southern city is hard to say." Yin Yuan replied.

The main gate (south gate) of Nancheng is called "Duanmen", and Liang Bing attacked from here.

In the past, it was guarded by private soldiers of the Duan family and the Zhang family, but they simply quit - Duan is a descendant of Duan Jiong, and is now a local tycoon in Wuwei, not a big family. The Zhang family is also a local tycoon in Wuwei, a warlord in the late Han Dynasty. After Zhang Heng, he has nothing to do with the Zhang family in Dunhuang.

Liangfeng Gate is the south gate of the Central City, and it is the only way in and out of the Central City and the South City. The city defense facilities are complete and there are heavy troops stationed there, so there is really no serious problem in the short term.

But the question is, now that the matter has come to this, is it still necessary to abide by it?

Zhang Jun subconsciously tightened the city defense at first, but now he felt relaxed and slowly thought about this problem, and suddenly looked depressed.

What's the use of trying harder? It’s just a matter of dying a few days earlier and dying a few days later.

Fan Yao also said just now that he has no reinforcements! No one will come to save him! Even if there is, it will be blocked by Zhangye and Xijun, and it will be completely impossible to get through.

Originally, there was still a trace of unwillingness in my heart. After surrendering, wouldn't you even be given an official position? Now that I think about it, it's all like this, and being a rich man seems pretty good.

After cleaning up the extravagant wealth, the fields, households, houses, and livestock were handed over to the Liang people. After arriving in Luoyang, they closed their doors and thanked guests, and spent their lives like this. At the age of twenty-two, his life had just begun. Yan's eldest daughter is only six years old, and his wife Ma's and Liu's sons are only two years old each. As a result, the fate of the whole family can be seen at a glance.

"That's all -" Zhang Jun sighed.

When he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Song Ji, who said sincerely: "My lord, we can fight again!"

Zhang Jun, however, was in low spirits. He waved his hand, looked at Fan Bao, and said, "I'd like to trouble you, Chang Shi, to prepare an order for me and tell the soldiers of the three cities - surrender."

After saying this, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength.

Mrs. Yan quickly stepped forward to support her and said with tears: "Husband, Your Majesty is true to his word. It is actually quite good to be a rich man and have a family together without having to worry."

Zhang Jun smiled bitterly.

Ever since my grandfather came to Liangzhou, the family has never lived in peace.

First, there was the Xianbei rebellion, which dealt a blow to my grandfather, who had just arrived.

When my grandfather suffered a stroke, he could not speak. First, the brothers Zhang Zhen and Zhang Yue conspired to rebel, and then the Qu family, Cao family and other separatist factions formed a faction.

In the sixth year of his reign, his father was assassinated by Yan Sha, the governor of the army.

At that time, my uncle fought many battles and was forced to surrender to Liu Han and Tuoba Dai. There were also Xin Yan and others who refused to accept discipline.

In his generation, Captain Wuji rebelled first, and then Liang Jun came to attack.

After supporting it until now, it is exhausted both physically and mentally and it is difficult to continue.

Leave this mess to someone else, he doesn't want it anymore.

In fact, there was a faint feeling of schadenfreude in his heart at this moment, and he really wanted to see what would happen to those who betrayed him when they were controlled by Shao Xun.

Judging from their unruly behavior, trouble will happen again if everything is not saved.

Liangzhou has never been peaceful since the Later Han Dynasty.

Can you rebel against me? Do you dare to rebel against Shao Xun?

After hearing the order to surrender, Yin Yuan sighed silently, while Song Ji struggled with his face. Just as his hand reached his waist, Yin Yuan grabbed him.

"General Song, the outside world doesn't know about Gu Zang." Yin Yuan said earnestly: "After my lord surrenders, you can still change your family and serve as Emperor Liang. But if you do something unworthy, there is nothing you can do. If we cover it up, the Song family may be in great trouble.”

Song Ji's hand clenched the handle of the knife so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Yin Yuan let go of his hand and said: "I have said everything, you can make your own decision."

Song Ji's hand slowly loosened up and hung slumped by his side. ******

In the afternoon, the soldiers in the three cities received orders one after another.

There was little commotion and everyone accepted their fate.

In the final analysis, Liangzhou's army was "crowdfunded", with one part from the Zhang family and one part from the wealthy family. Now that the wealthy family has different intentions, and the Zhang family themselves don't want to fight, why are they still insisting?

Finish early and go home to do farm work, if your home is still there.

Jin Zheng came to Nancheng immediately.

It was the Di Qiang soldiers that Xin Yan summoned from Jinxing who originally entered Nancheng. They still stayed inside and drove out the surrendered Wuwei soldiers.

There were shouts in the city, and everything of slight value was looted.

These Di Qiang soldiers wanted everything as if they had never seen money in their eight lives. In other words, Nancheng was planned and built as a palace city. There are not many people at the moment, and there are not many houses and palaces. Most of the valuable things have not been prepared in time, and there is nothing that can be grabbed.

No, some people even tore down the beams and ran away carrying the best wood.

Jin Zheng couldn't bear it anymore and ordered all these people to be hunted and killed.

Under the intimidation of the government soldiers, although Xin Yan was dissatisfied, he still mobilized thousands of soldiers from the Wuhan camp to enter the city and killed dozens of Di Qiang soldiers who made the most trouble. Only then did things stabilize.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Hongfan Gate was opened on the east side of Zhongcheng, which is also the only gate allowed to be opened in Zhongcheng.

A large group of martial soldiers filed out of the city and lined up to hand over their equipment.

Song Ji fell at the end of the crowd, looking up to the sky and sighing.

The soldiers who surrendered outside Hongfan Gate were soldiers from Xiping and Jinxing counties. They used to be one family and their attitude was pretty good.

The descendants of the Xiping Wei family and the Guo family who led the team were even familiar with Song Ji, and did not embarrass him much. They even invited him to sit in the camp and reminisce about the past together.

Song Ji was not in the mood and only chatted for a few words. He handed over the equipment of the three thousand troops and took them to the designated place to settle down. Then he sat there blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Beicheng opened the northernmost Anchang Gate.

There were two thousand soldiers on the Lingjun platform. Even after Zhang Jun ordered to surrender, they still refused to abandon their weapons and surrender.

Right Sima Han Pu entered the camp alone, slapped the guard twice, took out the two thousand crying soldiers, and sat on the ground in the north of the city.

Huan Wen silently watched these descendants, feeling satisfied and sighing slightly.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of Sima Rui from Jiangdong.

The next day, Liang Jun invaded Jianye. I don't know what his mood was and what he thought.

But Huan Wen didn't pity them.

Just sit back and talk all day long. The key is to dominate the noble position and not give others opportunities, so that the majority of knowledgeable people - especially Mr. Huan - have a hard time making progress and can only work in jobs with low official status and complicated affairs. In the service profession, death is not a pity.

He is a man who has been on the battlefield and has made two meritorious deeds. He is different from them.

The whole process of surrender lasted until the evening. Almost all the 17,800 military soldiers arrived outside the city, were divided into several places, and sat in meditation with their bare hands.

Thousands of Xin Yan's troops took control of Nancheng.

Qinzhou soldiers took control of Beicheng.

Zhao Wei, the commander of Heijing's right battalion, led his troops and horses, entered from the south city, passed Liangfeng Gate, and went straight into the middle city.

The doors and windows of every house were closed, and there were no pedestrians on the street. Except for the soldiers passing by in formation, no one could be seen.

At this time, Zhang Jun, accompanied by the main officials of the shogunate, came out naked and asked Jin Zheng, the commander of the Liang Army, to surrender.

******

The surrender ceremony was held outside Guangxia Gate in the west of the city.

Changshi Fanyi presented the books of the three camps of the twelve counties of Liangzhou - including the "ban", which is the map of the jurisdiction, as well as the "yellow book" of the common people and the "white book" of the nobles in the county.

Jin Zhenggao sat proudly on his horse and had no intention of dismounting to help Zhang Jun. He only sent his staff to collect the books, then raised his whip and said: "The governor of Jieliang will go to my camp to rest temporarily and wait for the emperor's decision."< br>


Zhang Jun was naked to the waist, tied ropes to himself, tied his hands behind his back, held a piece of jade in his mouth, and knelt his head humbly on the ground.

This is the standard procedure for surrender.

The first one is called "Leading the sheep with bare flesh", the second one is called "Bearing a thorn to plead guilty", the third one is called "A mud head holding a jade", and it is also mixed with "falling down with a face bound". In short, there are many elements.

In addition, Jin Zheng was right to call him "the fake governor of Liang".

If Zhang Gui and Zhang Shi were canonized by the Jin court and could be said to be "real governors of Liang", then Zhang Mao cannot be mentioned, let alone Zhang Jun, who proclaimed himself Liangzhou Shepherd.

If he died, only the four words "Fake Liang Governor" could be engraved on his tombstone. It would be impossible to write "Liangzhou Mu" because there is no name.

Zhang Jun knelt on the ground and listened. He didn't say much - he couldn't speak - and then stood up, silently lowering his head.

Jin Zhenggang was about to ride away. Seeing his appearance, he sneered and said, "Untie him."

After finishing speaking, he added: "Send an order to Zhao Wei to escort the Zhang clan members out together and send them to the camp to settle down. Treat them with courtesy and do not disturb them."

Zhen Pian, who has been promoted to the post of General Zhenxi and Chief of the Shogunate, walked over with a smile and said: "Please come with me, Governor of Jialing."

After that, he sent someone to untie Zhang Jun and presented him with a set of robes.

Zhang Jun took off the jade in his mouth and looked back at Guzang City under the sunset, as if he was in a big dream.

On the fourth day of May in the second year of Kaiping in Daliang (328), marked by Zhang Jun's surrender, the battle against Liang was basically over.

The Zhang regime, which had ruled Liangzhou for 28 years, fell.

Counting from the beginning of the war, Zhang Jun lost the land of twelve counties and three camps in just one month, which was shocking.
