Chapter 8 Second Calamity

After entering Chang'an, the Taiping Army occupied some of the supplies that Li Jue and Guo Si stayed in Chang'an. There were a lot of luxury goods and countless gold, silver and jewelry, but there were not much more practical food and grass.

He always liked what Guo Jia liked to do, and gave some gold, silver and jewelry to Ma Teng and Han Sui, and took out wine to add some atmosphere to the celebration banquet.

The wine and the cups were filled with laughter, and the generals who were drunk and vaguely toasted frequently, and they were called brothers and brothers.

After the banquet, Guo Jia was drunk and had a good appetite. He took a calm social engagement and left with reason. In the darkness of night, he came outside the camp where Guo Ye lived.

"Jin was conquered by Zheng, and wanted to cultivate Wu Hao, so he was about to join the princes. The envoy of Shi Yu told Qi, "I sent Wu to Wu, because the year was not easy and the year was not easy, and I did not warn me. I was willing to meet one or two brothers for a plan, so I asked the king to go to him and ask him to ask for an alliance." The Duke of Qi wanted to not agree, but was difficult to do so, so he joined the outside world..."

Jia Xu's slight tone came from the camp and was chanting Zuo Zhuan. Guo Jia stopped to listen, not disturbing, and couldn't help but smile.

After a while, Jia Xu's voice gradually lowered and then disappeared.

Jia Xu, who walked out of the camp, unexpectedly found Guo Jia, bowed and asked, "Aren't you holding a banquet to celebrate?" He didn't skip the words.

Waving his hand, Guo Jia invited Jia Xu to take a walk in the camp.

"Tomorrow I will lead my army eastward. I have a few words to say to my husband, "I have ordered Dian Wei, and Mr. and Ye'er should be fine under the protection of the Hu Guard."

When Jia Xu heard Guo Jia arranges him and Guo Ye so solemnly, Jia Xu frowned slightly.

As if he had guessed the reason, he asked back: "Is it not that I am visiting the emperor when I am traveling east?"

Guo Jia wanted to wipe out the Huns who dared to go south together. Jia Xu was not aware of this decision, but he guessed that Guo Jia had not yet put down his wars. There must be a big battle, but he just couldn't guess who the target was.

If you attack Ma Teng and Han Sui, why bother to leave the city? It would be easy to destroy Ma Teng and Han Sui in Chang'an, but Guo Jia would fall into an unjust situation.

What is the basis for recruiting talents? If you don’t have enough background and strength, you have to add benevolence and righteousness.

Guo Jia saw Jia Xu's care and teachings for Guo Ye. He could be honest with Jia Xu because to get the service of a person like Jia Xu, he must first be open and honest.

"It's true that after the Zuoxian King of the Huns went to Bei to lead the army to help the emperor repel Li Jue and Guo Si, he has led his army to advance towards Guanzhong recently. He has more than 50,000 troops. He is not satisfied with burning, killing and looting in Hedong. I'm afraid he wants to sweep Guanzhong to nothing before he stops."

Guo Jia only said half of the words and did not formally express his intention to attack the Southern Xiongnu, but the meaning is already very obvious.

Jia Xu thought further and asked tentatively: "Can you even Ma Teng and Han Sui want to plot together?"

He looked at Jia Xu in surprise, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Wenhe, if you are not much older than me, I will become a brother of a different surname with you."

The strategy of treating Ma Teng and Han Sui is a question that Guo Jia keeps thinking about.

If this step is wrong, it will affect the overall situation.

"Envoy, Ma Tenghan Sui must still be alive now. Even if they survive, as long as they return to Liangzhou alive, it will be beneficial to the envoy." Jia Xu's expression suddenly became solemn.

If Guo Jia really makes up his mind to kill Ma Teng and Han Sui, it will not only cut off one's own arms, but also cause a catastrophe.

Of course, Guo Jia had a plan in his mind. If he wanted to kill Ma Teng and Han Sui, he would definitely use a knife to kill people. Going to the bar is a knife that came to his door.

Morally, Guo Jia can completely blame him, but morality is often based on facts rather than process.

Therefore, the point is not how Ma Teng and Han Sui died, but how Ma Teng and Han Sui died.

If they really die in Guanzhong, there will always be people in the world who will see through it that Guo Jia set up a behind-the-scenes situation, and that it is also that Guo Jia takes advantage of it.

"I have also thought that if Ma Tenghan Sui died, it would be easy for me to annex Liangzhou, but now, I cannot take down Liangzhou, nor can I let them die. Therefore, I can only suppress them and weaken them."

Guo Jia walked forward with his hands behind his back. Guo Jia was lukewarm and had no killing spirit under the moonlight.

Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Guo Jia was able to make this decision, which shows that he was always at the height of the overall situation to control the situation.

Guo Jia, who has already taken over the Three Auxiliary Land, will sooner or later take Guanzhong into his possession. In terms of his subordinates, he is comparable to Yuan Shao. If Ma Tenghan dies, the princes of the world will expect Guo Jia to take advantage of the opportunity to conquer Liangzhou. Then Guo Jia will have half of the country, and will the princes turn a blind eye?

With Guo Jia's current strength, being able to defend Guanzhong and Yizhou is the limit. If the Guandong princes come to join another alliance, he will be hit by thunder.

The Kanto princes did not do their best to attack Dong Zhuo. That was because Dong Zhuo was ambitious but had no strength. He had soldiers and generals, but he did not have enough troops to raise troops. After a long time, the consumption would be delayed. It would be a matter of time before Dong Zhuo was defeated.

But Guo Jia is different. If Guo Jia takes Guanzhong and then captures Liangzhou, Guo Jia will lack nothing. What he lacks is the time required for the second round of rest and recuperation. After his military expansion and training strength is up to the next level, he will go out to the Kanto to compete for the Central Plains. Who can stop the Kanto princes?

There are countless talents in the world, and heroes will rise up together. Will they sit down and watch Guo Jia be strong? I am afraid that as soon as Guo Jia takes over Liangzhou, the princes of Guandong will immediately reconcile and wipe out Guo Jia from the north and south as soon as possible.

Guo Jia, who has emerged from the army, has disrupted the historical trajectory, so he cannot be lucky and should focus on the overall situation.

Han Sui and Ma Teng cannot die, but it does not mean that Guo Jia cannot weaken them. Liangzhou cannot be taken immediately, nor does it mean that Guo Jia cannot prepare for the capture of Liangzhou.

"It was always the emperor who invited the king to serve the king. If the envoy meets him in war, he may be criticized."

Jia Xu reminded him.

Other strategists have already made such a reminder in front of Guo Jia.

Guo Jia stopped and smiled casually: "I don't want to bear some infamous, but I'm willing to bear some infamous."

I was having a joke in the military camp, and Guo Jia and Jia Xu had a chat until late at night before they returned to their own tents to rest.

After dawn the next day, the three armies set out and headed east.

Because Guo Jia pushed the credit for the extermination of Li Jue and Guo Si to Han Sui and Ma Teng, the two were allowed to lead the army and set the way forward. Guo Jia led the rear of the palace to show that he had no intention of competing with the two to seek credit.

Han Sui and Ma Teng didn't realize that there was anything wrong with this. They led the army together, and the Western Liang Iron Cavalry followed them, and the infantry followed behind, and then backwards were Guo Jia's 30,000 infantry.

Guo Jia, the 30,000 infantrymen, led 10,000 Xu Chu and Dian Wei, and 10,000 archers and 10,000 crossbowmen under Zhang Liao.

When this huge army headed eastward, a large army advanced westward directly in front of them.

The Zuoxian King of the Southern Xiongnu went to Bei and took his two nephews Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan to lead the army to enter the Sanfu land. After leaving Tongguan, he sent teams of troops to plunder the surrounding county towns, but they had little income. They did not expect that the Sanfu land would be a deserted scene.

But they did not give up and continued to advance westward, plundering materials and population as much as they could.

When Li Jue and Guo Si retreated to Chang'an, he did not expect that the land of the Three Auxiliary had changed hands. When he went to Bei to lead his army to the west, he only thought that the land of the Three Auxiliary was the only defeated general Li Jue and Guo Si.

They also camped in the wild, went to the humble army to roam freely, danced around the bonfire, squandered the supplies they plundered from Hedong and Hongnong, and even the soldiers' wild smiles came from many camps accompanied by the cry of women...

King Zuo Xian went to Bei to recruit two nephews into the big tent to talk. While drinking, he asked Yu Fuluo and Hu Chuquan about his opinions.

"Although Li Jue and Guo Si returned home from defeat, there are probably still many troops in Chang'an. Are we sure we will attack Chang'an?"

Yu Fuluo patted his chest and said confidently: "The two of them are just defeated generals. When we arrive at the city of Chang'an, they will definitely run away."

Hu Chuquan also agreed with Fu Luo's view, and immediately expressed his opinion to go straight to Chang'an and sweep Guanzhong.

"Ma Teng and Han Sui? These two are the leaders of the Liangzhou army. Will they come to Guanzhong too?" Qubei was a little worried because he was afraid that Li Jue and Guo Si and Ma Teng and Han Sui would join forces.

Hu Chuquan didn't care at all, and drank a bowl of wine in big mouthfuls and mocked: "The Han emperor said that Han Suima Teng was helping him. Since we were invited by the Han emperor, Han Suima Teng must be more polite to us, otherwise, hum."

As long as Han Sui-ma Teng doesn't come to disrupt the situation, everything will be easy.

The three of them continued to drink in the tent.

After robbing the camp twice within half a month, Gan Ning seemed to be getting more and more accustomed to taking Yin Ling to fly around like the wind.

This time, they targeted the Huns' army, and their combat commands were the same as last time, and they retreated with one blow, but the direction of retreat could not be Chang'an, but Wuguan.

The night wind was bleak, and Gan Ning led his army twenty miles away from the Xiongnu camp. This time they came from the west, intending to rush through the Xiongnu camp in one go, kill as much as possible, and then turn south.

The singing, dancing, laughter and joking gradually stopped, and the Hun camp fell silent. They expanded their confidence with the momentum of victory. Although they were less prepared for danger in times of peace, they were definitely not frightened birds.

When the sound of horse hooves came, the Hun soldiers who were patrolling and patrolling found that there were overwhelming cavalry raids on the west side, and immediately shouted loudly. The soldiers in the camp hurriedly picked up their clothes and put on their weapons to defend against the enemy.

Their performance is much stronger than that of Li Jue and Guo Si at that time, but the victory of the camp is unexpected. If they are not prepared in advance, they will still be one move.

Without formation, the Hun soldiers who could not form a joint force were mixed together, raising their weapons to make limited resistance to the mercenary Yinling Flying Cavalry.

Gan Ning took the lead as always, riding the horse galloped away, holding a long sword in his hand and constantly slashing the Hun soldiers. The silver-feathered flying cavalry was like a hungry tiger pounced on food, bloodthirsty and cruel.

Gebei kept calling the soldiers around to resist the enemy. Hu Chuquan and Yu Fuluo also got on the war horse to fight with the enemy, but Yin Ling Feiqiu came at full speed, and they could only stop it. The pursuit was beyond the reach of the dust.

But there are really people who want to chase after him. Gan Ning is tall and mighty, and he is even more eye-catching when riding on the horse. He is brave and domineering and fierce. Yu Fuluo guessed that Gan Ning was the leader of the enemy, so he chased him.

Gan Ning, who had already broken through the Hun camp and was about to go south, found that behind him were Hun cavalry chasing him and chopped off many soldiers with the Silver Feather Flying Cavalry. He turned around and stared at him. Under the moonlight, Yu Fuluo's hair was flying, his eyes were so angry that he was waving his big sword as ferocious as a beast.

A disdainful sneer was raised at the corner of his mouth, Gan Ning kept taking back the big knife, took off the longbow on his back, and put an arrow on it, and turned around and aimed at Fuluo.

Bang

The bow strings were whirling, and the arrows broke through the air.

Gan Ning moved quickly and everything was completed in an instant.

Yu Fuluo fell off his horse in response, with an arrow tied to his head, and died with his eyes closed.
