After Bu Dugen led 5,000 soldiers to fight with Dong Buyi for a brief battle, despite some losses, the Bu Dugen brothers did not treat Dong Hu as a major hostile hostility in life and death. However, when Dong Hu took advantage of the melee of the Xiongnu in Shangjun and Xihe County, he swallowed the entire Xiongnu in one fell swoop, which not only made Dan Khan Mountain nervous, but also made the entire Dong Xianbei nervous.

The Xianbei tribes were nervous, and the Wuwan tribes in Youzhou were also nervous, fearing that the Xianbei people suddenly entered the country, and they would not dare to relax even when it was the grazing season.

For more than half a year, Hua Xiong, who became General Yun, personally took charge of Qianyin and Liangcheng, for fear of being negligent, let the Xianbei kill him in. The Xianbei people were also nervous and unruly Dong Buyicon, who took advantage of the sheep-herding season to raid them. Then there were Wuwan tribes and Youzhou governor Liu Yu. Everyone was nervous. The tribes that grazed sheep-herding sheep-herding sheep-herding tribes did not dare to run thousands of miles and stayed around the tribes. This tension completely made Liu Guanzhang lose his job.

It has been half a month since the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang entered Meiyang. Gongsun Zan has had a hard time, so how can the three brothers be happy?

When Sun Jian came, Gongsun Zan was having a drink with his generals. Both sides said a lot of words, but it was nothing more than how Dong Zhuo did not obey the military order and was arrogant and domineering. Anyway, all this is still the same after all. It was almost a year since he was dissatisfied, but in the end it was still the same.

Perhaps Gongsun Zan knew that Sun Jian wanted to tell him something private, so he waved his hand to drive away some miscellaneous people, leaving only some confidants.

"Brother Wentai may as well say something, there are no outsiders here."

Although the generals of the border army had similar temperaments, Gongsun Zan didn't like to go around, so he opened his mouth and asked directly, but Sun Jian's words made everyone stunned.

"Dong Zhuo has always refused to obey military orders and despise the majesty of the court. General Che and Cavalry was determined to do the matter of "Rangju beheading Zhuang Jia, Wei Jiang killing Yang Gan" and wanted to strictly regulate military discipline. What do General Gongsun think?"

Gongsun Zan is a brave general in Youzhou. He has three confidant generals under him, including Yan Gang, Tian Kai, and Shan Jing. However, he looked at Sun Jian with shock at this moment. They didn't like Dong Zhuo, but they never thought about slashing people with one knife.

Seeing that others didn't speak, Shan Jing hesitated and said, "Is it inappropriate to join the army? General Dong has more than 10,000 troops and is quite prestigious in the army. It is time to fight with the thieves. If he kills a great general with great meritorious moment at this time... isn't it inappropriate?"

"What's wrong? We can't stand those Liangzhou kids!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded in the tent. Even Gongsun Zan, the brave general, was shocked and turned around to see who was Zhang Fei behind Liu Bei?

Liu Bei did not wait for others to speak, and quickly turned around and scolded him.

"The third brother is not allowed to talk nonsense!"

Seeing everyone's eyes, Liu Bei quickly got up and folded his fists to apologize.

"Yidd is reckless, I hope you don't blame me."

Finally someone supported him, Sun Jian hurriedly clasped his fists and returned the greeting.

"Xuande can come thousands of miles away, but he is a loyal and righteous man. However, today the army is not united. As General Shan said, when the enemy and our army are fighting each other, if the morale of the upper and lower troops is different, how can he conquer the thief?"

As he said that, Sun Jian turned around and looked at Gongsun Zan who was frowning.

"It has been a year since General Gongsun brought three thousand Wuwan cavalry last year. Bo Gui saw what Dong Zhuo did with his own eyes and summoned the emperor to discuss matters. He either failed to call the name or was delayed in the future. How could the general be in law and the imperial court be seen in his eyes?"

Gongsun Zan sighed in his heart. No matter how he didn't like Dong Zhuo's domineeringness, he knew what the consequences would be if he killed Dong Zhuo...

"General Gongsun also knew that the court had insufficient food and supplies. If the food was not prepared as soon as possible, the soldiers in the army would be dissatisfied with resentment. The general led three thousand Wuwan cavalry to come. Only half of them were now. The people of Wuwan would feel dissatisfied. If the soldiers were resentful because of the food and supplies, the people of Wuwan would not dare to resent the court, but they regarded the general as their enemies."

Gongsun Zan and his confidants stood up with a loud bang, looking at Sun Jian with anger.

Yan Gang said angrily: "Others don't know the reason for the defeat this time. Does Sun join the army have no idea? If you hadn't been deceived by others, saying that the thief people were so angry that they were broken, and that they were brave enough to kill the enemy, how could our army be so disconnected from the central army? How could it be so defeated? How could it lose all its food and supplies?"

Sun Jian was silent...

"Sun once told General Zhou that the thieves retreated in a hurry, and the food in Jincheng may be insufficient. If General Zhou can be with Sun, Sun only needs to cut off the thieves' food route. The thieves will be in chaos. Our army can fight with one strike to combat the thieves."

Originally, the enemy and us confronted each other in Meiyang, because a meteor shower and a burning meteorite fell, and were passing over the heads of 100,000 Liangzhou rebels, frightening the cattle and sheep in the dark. The Qiang people thought this was not a good omen, but they didn't think about it. The meteor was not hitting directly on their heads. The two sides confronted each other in Meiyang, and crossed over their heads. Didn't they pass over the Han army camp?

Dong Zhuo, Dong Hu, and even any Liangzhou general knew that the Qiang rebellion could not last long. At the beginning, they all made money and robbed a lot of things. But if they confronted each other for a year, the food they robbed was almost the same. When it was their turn to eat their old capital, the rebels at this time would definitely think about how to surrender and surrender as soon as possible.

The meteor matter is just an excuse. It is not that the meteor also passes over the Han army camp, but because a group of bastards have the intention to part ways.

It is quite nonsense, but for the rebels in Liangzhou, it is normal for them to part with the group if they can’t take advantage of it.

Sun Jian has never been in Liangzhou and does not understand the Qiang people who make a living by herding sheep. He thought that after the Qiang people made great strides from Meiyang, they would not have time to stock up on the Jincheng Pass. As long as they brought 10,000 people to the Jincheng Pass, they would be blocking the city gate. Because there was no food in the city, the thieves would definitely not dare to hide in the city and wait for starvation to die, and the thieves would collapse and escape the river...

But this is not the case.

The Qiang people are similar to the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuwan people, and they really cannot stay in the city for a long time. Unless the tribes dominated by cattle and sheep robbed enough food from the Han people, they will not be able to hide in the city for a long time. After all, cattle and sheep have to eat grass and graze.

It is precisely because of cattle and sheep that if the 100,000 Qiang people could not block the imperial court's army at the intersection of the Weishui Valley that entered Liangzhou, they could only retreat in a big way, because the road from Hanyang County to Jincheng County was full of holes. Although there were many gullies, countless roads threatened the safety of hundreds of millions of cattle and sheep. The cattle and sheep in the hands of the 100,000 Qiang people were the biggest weakness. Once they were attacked by the elite cavalry of the court, the 100,000 Qiang people would be defeated. Therefore, in order to avoid the sneak attack of the court, countless rebel Qiang people could only retreat in a big way.

This kind of retreat is initiative, not because it cannot defeat more than 100,000 Han soldiers. The confrontation between the two sides in Meiyang has already shown the problem. If the Han soldiers can defeat the rebel Qiang people, they will never allow 100,000 rebels to stare at the Guanzhong Plain.

There is a fundamental difference between actively retreating and great defeat.

It was a bit of a loss for Sun Jian to cut off the food route of Jincheng Pass. The weakness of the Qiang people was cattle and sheep, not a city or land. If more than 100,000 cattle and sheep rebels crossed the river, it would be useless to block the Jincheng Pass. Tens of thousands of Qiang people could cross the river and fight with Han soldiers at any time after there was no safety hazard for cattle and sheep. The tens of thousands of Qiang people could definitely not defeat the Qiang people with several times of their strength by just advancing.

Under the other wheel, there was nothing in this war. It was Zhou Shen and Sun Jian who chased the 100,000 Qiang people all the way. Zhou Shen was not at fault for not giving Sun Jian's troops. When Bian Zhang led his troops out of Kuiyuan Gorge, historical books said that Zhou Shen was worried that the food route would be cut off and that he abandoned the city and fled in panic, which caused the Han soldiers to be defeated.

What is said in history books is right or not. The reason is that Kuiyuan Gorge is not behind Yuzhong City, but between Yuzhong City and Jincheng Pass, and is in front of Yuzhong City. How can it be said to be "cut off the food channel"? The reason is that once Zhou Shen enters Yuzhong City, Bianzhang can block the city gate and prevent him from coming out.

Zhou Shen would never dare to enter Yuzhong City easily. This is the same as Sun Jian's idea of ​​blocking the Jincheng Pass gate and cutting off the food of the Qiang people in the city. Once the Qiang people blocked Zhou Shen in the Yuzhong Pass and cut off the food road, 30,000 troops would be starved to death in the city. If other imperial troops came to rescue, it would become the Qiang people surrounding the points to fight for help, and the court's oil-added war. This is extremely dangerous, so Zhou Shen could only run away in panic. The key is that you can escape? Can the two-legged infantry escape the four-legged war horse?

Zhou Shen and Sun Jian's sudden army would never be wrong. If it weren't for their underestimation of the enemy, there would be only one purpose, that is, the purpose of Dong Hu robbing Yuzhong and the Warriors and the two sub-city cities on that day. Zhou Shen's purpose was not to defeat more than 100,000 rebel Qiang people, but to establish a bridgehead, to control and avoid more than 100,000 Qiang people threatening the safety of Anding County, Hanyang County, and Longxi County, and to control the disaster west of the Yellow River.

The three cities of Jincheng, Yuzhong and the Warriors are very close to each other, and are three cities that restrict each other. Once Yuzhong is controlled, the Warriors and the two cities of Jincheng will not dare to move around. The thieves can only stay honestly on the west bank of the Yellow River. However, this requires one condition, which is whether the thieves dare to cross the river and whether the thieves are afraid of the imperial court to quell the rebellion.

If the thieves hesitate, they gave Zhou Shen enough time to allow Zhou Shen's front army to successfully occupy Yuzhong, the warriors and the central army successfully ran to the two cities. The confrontation between the enemy and us was transferred from Meiyang of Chang'an Sanfu to Yuzhong. The warriors and Jincheng Sansai City were the city, and the imperial army had an absolute advantage in quelling the rebellion.

If Zhang Wen, Yuan Pang, Huangfu Song, Tao Qian, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zan... and others were not too underestimating the enemy and advancing, they were betting! More than 100,000 rebel Qiang people were hesitant and dared not fight with the Han soldiers, and betting on the initiative in the battlefield.

Last time, Dong Hu led only ten thousand people, and most of them were captured by Qiang people who had just been sealed. Dong Hu took these people to rob Yuzhong, and the warriors were blocked in two cities. The 100,000 Qiang people on the other side did not dare to fight him in the end. The big reason was that Dong Hu took the lead and Yan Xing, who was defeated by a thousand armored iron cavalry, was defeated. A group of Qiang people couldn't figure out how much combat power Dong Hu had.

In addition, the troops led by Dong Hu cannot be regarded as soldiers of the court. Even if Beigong Boyu, burned down Lao Wang, Han Sui and others cut off all 10,000 people led by Dong Hu, and the court did not shed a single hair. If the court did not shed a hair, it would not feel pain. Naturally, it would not agree to the conditions for the rebels to compromise after the rebellion. For these reasons, the main force of the rebel Qiang people did not cross the river to fight with Dong Hu.
