Three Kingdoms

Han Sui came with his injured leg wrapped, and there was still some blood seeping out of the grass cloth. In addition to his armor, he was wearing a war robe, his hair was disheveled, his face was unkempt, and he was extremely miserable. He looked like a weak woman who had been humiliated for a long time. A quick look, it was indeed It's quite pitiful, but if you pay attention, the eyes covered by the scattered hair will occasionally reveal a sharp look belonging to a hero.

Fei Qian sat at the top.

Han Sui sat down below.

Not having Han Sui tied up and kneeling down in the hall was a great honor to Han Sui, but there was no need for Fei Qian to do so. After all, the Han Dynasty still has some legacy from the Spring and Autumn Period. In many cases, it was still about coming and going, and it did not completely enter the period of competing against each other.

Especially in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, it was common for wives to rely on each other. Not only Liu Paopao, but also Cao Fanqiang also did it. At the same time, there was also a typical feature. In the early days of the Three Kingdoms, duels between generals were also relatively common. Perhaps because most of the early battles were in the north, it is not uncommon for people from Shanxi and Northern Hebei, who advocate individual heroism, to lead troops to raid their own formations.

Therefore, speaking of it, the early stage of the Three Kingdoms is more exciting and has a strong color of heroism. Even though there are also elements of Old Man Luo's wonderful writing, it is relatively bright overall.

On the contrary, by the end of the Three Kingdoms, the color became much darker. The generals who commanded the army tended to be more inclined to temple calculations and no longer went into battle to fight. From individual competition to team competition, from comparing military force to comparing financial resources, there was nothing special about it. Wonderful clip. If Deng Ai had not successfully smuggled in, Old Man Luo might not have anything to write about when he got to the back. After all, the battle between the Three Heroes and Lu Bu was so lively before, but the further back, the more deserted...

Fei Qian was a little distracted, but Han Sui was a little uneasy.

Han Sui's surrender was actually not just a desperate attempt to seek treatment before his death, but also some strategy. He was betting that it would be more beneficial for Fei Qian to live than to die. Of course, this choice was still in Fei Qian's hands. What if the man in front of him The young man didn't want to understand, and on impulse...

Surrender and avoid death.

This is not just talk, it is really needed.

Even during the Anti-Japanese War in later generations, when the country really hated the family, but if any Japanese devils surrendered, they had to be worshiped like a statue of a god. Even the head of the army did not have rations of fine flour and refined food, so he had to save the Japanese devils first.

The truth is very simple. If you surrender, you will be killed. Who will surrender in the future?

"I heard about Wen Yue's name a long time ago, but I never thought that I would see him today." Although Fei Qian is much younger than Han Sui, normally he would be called a general or Wen Yue Gong, but now Han Sui is a prisoner. , Er Zefei Qian's official position actually sounds pretty good, so he just calls it by his first name, that's all.

Han Sui was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and said: "General Zhengxi is indeed so heroic, so I admire him endlessly." He had to lower his head under the eaves, so why bother to say strong words? It was naturally impossible for the old fox Han Sui to do something mean. This action provoked Fei Qian's anger for no reason.

"Wen Yue is an outstanding figure in the world, and he is highly favored by Xiliang. He first settled in Longdi. He was a humble corporal, and the heroes returned. He was good at punishment and administration, and his army and armor were prosperous. He had the style of a wise general. He was expected to advance to Sanhuai, and then he took advantage of it. Li Guo's Rebellion, leading the crowd into the pass, massacring the corrupt, and refusing to change the thieves..." Fei Qian looked at Han Sui, and did not curse with his halberd, nor was he as aggressive as before. Instead, his tone was smooth, as if he was chatting leisurely. He said, "...In the past, the imperial court paid homage to the generals and gave them gold and silk. Isn't that generous? Since then, we should have made peace with the land to repay heaven's kindness and ensure peace in Xiliang. However, Wen Yue raised weapons and swords to attack his colleagues and drive away the refugees. Such actions, Isn’t it looked down upon by others? Could it be that Wen Yue wants to be a traitor?”

The calm tone does not mean that the content is simple. No matter what Han Sui wants to do, Fei Qian will put a hat on his head first.

Wei, that is, Wei Xiao.

Wei Xiao was born into a wealthy family in Longyou. He served as an official in prefectures and counties in his youth and was famous in Longyou for his knowledge of books and classics. Strictly speaking, he was much stronger than Han Sui, at least his family status was much stronger than Han Sui's. Later, because of Wang Mang's new policies, Wei Xiao rebelled against the king and became a separatist force.

Later, Wang Mang failed, and Wei Xiao nominally surrendered to Liu Xiu, but in reality he still wanted to separatist power and become the boss. Liu Xiu originally respected Wei Xiao, but Wei Xiao repeatedly obeyed and disobeyed, which finally led Liu Xiu to make up his mind. We must eradicate Wei Xiao. After all, Liu Xiu is the so-called man of destiny. In the end, thirteen generals, sixteen subordinate counties, and more than 100,000 soldiers who originally followed Wei Xiao surrendered without a fight. The right territory disappeared.

Han Sui smiled bitterly and said: "What General Zhengxi said is true, and he is deeply ashamed of it. So he lived in Liang for a long time, tangled among the Qiang and Hu, and received a favor from the court. His wish was fulfilled. How dare he go to Longwang to Shu? How can he follow the example of Wei? Said? The fight with the general is just because Ma Shoucheng is a friend of Sui. After Shoucheng passed away, Meng Qi inherited his troops. There are many rumors that the general wants to conquer Longxi and seize Sui's troops, but he doesn't know whether it is true or not. He is suitable for the general. We marched north to argue, so we raised troops to resist. Now that I think about it, it must be Meng Qi who is slandering and using the name of the general to stir things up. I hope the general will notice clearly."

Fei Qian laughed heartily.

Isn't this nonsense?

If Han Sui doesn't have any ideas, how can Guang Ma Chao do anything by himself?

However, everything Han Sui said sounds like there is nothing wrong with it, but in fact, "living in Liang for a long time, entangled among the Qiang and Hu" means that Han Sui himself has a high reputation among the Qiang people and eats more beef and mutton than you do. , he is an old-timer, so he should be given some face; and "Delongwangshu" is conversely saying that Fei Qian just marched into Guanzhong, then into Hanzhong, then to Sichuan and Shu, and then to Longyou, and then continues the following words , which means that according to normal thinking, under the current situation, Fei Qian is already "plotting to seize troops and horses in Longxi". How can he have the nerve to raise troops to attack his colleagues?

Fei Qian stared at Han Sui and said word by word: "In the past, the emperor was in Luoyang, the Dong family was domineering, and later in Chang'an, Li Guo was in chaos, all because of Xiliang. Although the emperor has returned to Luo now, the atmosphere has changed. , but there are soldiers and horses gathered in Longyou, how can we know whether it is Dou or Wei? Some people are attacking Hanzhong, which is the emperor's order. Moreover, Zhang used the Taoist name to kill the envoys, cut off the traffic with weirs, and harmed the place. He deserves the punishment. I don't know. Does Wen Yue think so?"

Don't talk nonsense or make a rake. In any case, although you Han Sui can be regarded as a hero, you are not really loyal to the Han Dynasty. You naturally know in your heart whether you are a humerus for the imperial court.

When Dong Zhuo went to Beijing to carry out sabotage, he brought Xiliang soldiers with him, right?

Li Guo and Li were tossing around in Chang'an. They were also Xiliang soldiers, right?

You said that you are marching into the Third Auxiliary Army with these troops and horses on hand, saying that you want to help the country and protect the country and the people. Who believes this?

On the other hand, whether they are in Bingzhou, Guanzhong, or marching into Hanzhong, at least the Zhengxi banner has serious reasons. It is either to eliminate bandits, to resist foreign enemies, or to suppress people like Zhang. Lu's severing of contacts with the central government was obviously an attempt to separatist localities.

Under the banner of Zhengxi, all those who deserve to be killed are those who deserve it, so don’t make an issue of it with me!

Han Sui didn't expect Fei Qian to be so rude and pointed out the key point, and his expression immediately changed. He has been well-known in Xiliang for many years, and he is usually a role that is praised by others. Naturally, he thinks that he has done nothing wrong. Now he is being snatched away by Fei Qian, but he can't find any words to refute, and he is holding back a sullen sigh. My chest feels extremely uncomfortable.

Han Sui was originally an old fox who kept his emotions and anger to a certain extent, but everyone's psychological endurance has a limit, and there is a certain limit. When this limit is exceeded, the degree of discomfort in his heart is even worse than ordinary people. Even more powerful. What's more, Han Sui also changed his name before, which shows that he actually still needs to have some dignity. He is not a completely shameless person, let alone nonsense, so he wanted to refute but couldn't find any words, so he had to lower his head. Come, use your messy hair to cover your swollen face.

For a moment, both of them were silent.

Fei Qian looked at Han Sui and made some calculations. He also knew that Han Sui might not really surrender, and even if he surrendered, what could he be allowed to do?

Leading a team?

I'm sure he'll be like Liu Bei and run away in the blink of an eye.

Governing civil affairs?

With just his brush, it doesn't matter whether it can make the wall shiny.

Even if he is placed under house arrest, it will still consume manpower, money and food...

Buddhism is not yet prosperous these days, otherwise you can just put him in that temple and send him an Arhat or something, and talk about putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately. It's not a bad idea to be sure.

"Wenyu is injured, so you might as well take care of it first, and the rest..." Fei Qian said with a smile, relaxing the atmosphere, "Let's talk about it after the injury heals... Come, please give General Han a good rest..."

Han Sui managed to stand up, bowed slightly to Fei Qian, and then retreated with Fei Qian's soldiers.

On the side, Li Ru came out from behind the tent, cupped his hands towards Fei Qiangong, and said, "General, keeping this person here is a disaster... But if we kill him, our reputation will inevitably be ruined, so why not..."

Li Ru took a step forward and whispered a few words.

Fei Qian laughed and said, "Wen You's plan is very consistent with a certain intention! Let's just leave it at that and follow the plan!"

…………………………

Ma Chao was really lucky. Relying on his familiarity with the terrain, he ran out of the Tietang Gorge Road and gathered some scattered Qiang cavalry along the way. After fleeing to Tianshui, he actually gathered eight or nine hundred troops.

The Xiliang tribes located in Tianshui were hit by the successive battles and were stunned.

Originally, many people thought that Cheng Gongying's defeat was within the normal range. Of course, everyone dreams of winning every battle in their life, but if they really encounter an unwinnable battle, it is the right move to avoid the edge first, so it is not General Zhengxi's troops were not placed in such a powerful position.

However, with Cheng Gongying being killed for the second time and being defeated, and Ma Chao escaping in embarrassment, all the Xiliang tribes were frightened, and only then did Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, truly regard him as a powerful enemy.

Han Sui and Ma Chao were defeated, so how could they fight?

How much ability and weight he has, who can reach this position today is basically not a fool, naturally he knows clearly in his heart, so the original plan of sending troops in two directions, one way to the east and all the way to the south, was immediately rejected.

"Uncles!" Ma Chao stood among the crowd, his face full of tears, and he bowed with his hands, "Uncle Han's life and death are unknown, how can we stand by and watch? We should send troops to rescue him as soon as possible!"

This time, Ma Chao really cried, and his tears were not fake. They were not droplets of water or saliva. It was really sad, but this sadness was not for Han Sui, but for Ma Tie...

Ma Tie's injury was not healed, and he was originally staying in Han Sui's camp for treatment, but he never recovered. Now that Han Sui was defeated, Ma Tie was often in a coma, and he might have died among the rebels.

This debt will naturally be placed on Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West.

Originally there were five horses in Xiliang, Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie, but now Ma Chao was left alone. This sad mood naturally made Ma Chao burst into tears.

"This... nephew of the Ma family..." Cheng Yin coughed dryly. He had a good relationship with Han Sui and Ma Teng, so when he saw Ma Chao crying with tears streaming down his face, he felt a little regretful and said, "Save, of course. We must save! We must save! We must see people alive and dead, and we must see corpses, even if something happens, we must avenge Brother Han! However, there must always be some rules for this, and we can't just swarm him in random directions, right?"

Duan Xuan nodded and said: "Zhengxi is now in great momentum, and they are united again, and their armor is sharp... We still need to be careful. If we lose again, then..."

"Uncles..."

Ma Chao was just about to say something when he saw several soldiers rushing over holding a piece of armor. They fell to the ground with a thud and said in panic: "...everyone, everyone...generals, patrolling thirty miles away." The affair got the scout from Zhengxi, and then... then the scout from Zhengxi left this armor, saying... he said it was to be presented to the general..."

Ma Chao looked carefully, raised the corners of his mouth, immediately covered his face, screamed in pain, and fell backwards.

Since escaping from Tietang Gorge, Ma Chao has been a little uneasy. Although there is nothing wrong with flying separately when disaster strikes, in the Han Dynasty, this kind of behavior would definitely be despised, and he might be blamed for the rest of his life. When he saw Han The armor was torn and stained with blood, and a big stone suddenly fell in his heart. In order not to let others see the flaw, he simply pretended to be fainted.

When the Xiliang generals saw Han Sui's armor, their expressions changed.

Weapons and armor are like swords in later generations of martial arts novels. People die with swords and people die with the sword. They will not be abandoned easily. Therefore, when Han Sui's armor appears here, it probably means Han Sui. The situation is already dire.

"...Revenge! Revenge!" Ma Chao was not really unconscious in the first place, so he woke up as soon as he screamed. Qi Qing gritted his teeth and shouted, "Revenge! Uncles, if you don't avenge this revenge, where will the long-term friendship be?! Xi Where is the cool face?! We want revenge! Revenge!"

When the leaders of the Xiliang tribes heard this, they couldn't help but have different expressions...
