Han Lin had already thought of what Chen Ding said.
Surrender is impossible.
As a general with 18,000 elite Gansu soldiers, how could he switch sides and disarm just because of a few words from the other party's civilian officials?
"On the contrary. The Han army went deep alone and had no roots. Let's wait and see. The Han army will definitely starve to death in Gansu." Han Lin said with a normal expression.
The Han army is in formation. Wu Nian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw someone being hung on the city gate.
He thought there were three possibilities for Chen Ding to enter the city to persuade him to surrender.
Killed.
Success means surrender.
return.
Unexpectedly, there was also the aspect of being tied up and hung at the city gate. But it's better than being killed. Han Lin still kept a line.
"There's nothing we can do about it. He's going to suffer a lot." Wu Nian shook his head and said to his left and right.
This day.
The Han army made no move.
Han Lin also hunkered down in the city, and the two sides were in peace.
.......
Qi kings Wu Min, Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng led their troops around the street pavilion and immediately divided them into five groups.
King Wu Min of Qi led Wanhu cavalry to form a line of his own.
Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng's Wanhu Da Nei guards were divided into four groups of soldiers and horses, divided into two lines, from north to south, to attack the city and seize the territory.
Among them, Wang Gui led five thousand families of soldiers and horses, and went straight to Pingliang Fucheng and Pingliang City.
On the avenue.
Thousands of iron hoofs, horses and cavalry are all majestic and majestic, different from ordinary people. Everyone is wearing heavy armor, there are no lightly armed soldiers.
The flag with the word "Han" flutters in the wind and makes a hunting sound.
The iron hoof of the Han Dynasty penetrated deep into Gansu for the first time.
The terrain of the Longxi Plateau is full of ravines. But the road is very wide and there are many people on it. I saw this large group of cavalry running rampant.
Passers-by first took a breath, then gave way, and then became noisy.
"This is the iron cavalry of the Han Dynasty? How come it appears here? Aren't the Han Dynasty and the Xiliang Kingdom the suzerain state and the vassal state?"
"What suzerainty and vassal state? This is a cover-up. Otherwise, why would the Han army appear here? The King of Xiliang has only been king for a few days, and he has suffered retribution."
"War is coming, war is coming."
Gansu is different from Shaanxi. People in northern Shaanxi knew that Wu Nian governed the Yellow River and the Loess Plateau, and their hearts were dedicated to the Han Dynasty.
The Han Dynasty had no popular support in Gansu. On the contrary, Han Laocheng has been operating in Gansu for many years and is very prestigious.
When the common people saw the Han cavalry, even if they didn't care about Han Laocheng, few of them were toward the Han Dynasty.
The Han cavalry is extremely fast.
In Gansu, the speed of message transmission was only a little faster than that of the Han army.
Pingliang Prefecture governs five cities. Pingliang City is the largest, strongest, and the only city that stores grain. There are three thousand elite soldiers in the city.
The general's surname was Han and his name was Fengxian. He was good at using horses and horses, and he was brave and good at fighting. He is a member of the same clan as Han Laocheng.
When the news came, the city was completely defenseless.
General's Mansion, in the lobby. Han Fengxian was chatting with friends and drinking tea.
Han Laocheng proclaimed himself king and rewarded his ministers. He is a clan member and a general. He received many rewards and two beautiful concubines.
Now is the time when the spring breeze is triumphant.
What a one.
When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven. Now the Han family has stood up.
No.
The local prominent figures in Pingliang Mansion, including officials, squires, etc., are all his guests.
Han Fengxian drank tea, looked at his friends, and occasionally said a few words, very happy.
"Da da da!!!" Suddenly. There was a burst of rapid footsteps, and then a soldier rushed in panting, sweating profusely and said: "General, something bad is happening. The Han cavalry is coming towards Pingliang City, at least 5,000 people, and the distance is less than ten miles."
"What did you say?" Han Fengxian's hand shook and he almost couldn't hold the tea cup. He stood up and said in a low voice.
Didn't the Han Dynasty just confirm the relationship between suzerainty and vassal state with Xiliang Kingdom? He also sent 120,000 taels of silver.
He also shared the benefits.
Why did you fall out so quickly?
The world is not at peace yet. This is not the time to kill the donkey. Moreover. What about the street pavilion? The street pavilion was captured by the Han army?
Han Fengxian's mind was confused.
He didn't believe that the Han army had captured Jieting. He knew Han Lin's capabilities. He had many soldiers and horses, the city was strong, and the defense supplies were sufficient.
It is impossible that the Han army captured it without any news.
But if the street pavilion was not captured, how could the Han army appear in Pingliang City?
Going deep alone?
How dare the Han army! ! ! !
Several of Han Fengxian's friends immediately turned pale. They looked at each other, and one of the round-faced officers stood up and said hurriedly: "Since the general is busy, I will take the first step."
"General, I won't delay military affairs. Take my leave."
"General."
Several friends were gone in the blink of an eye.
Before that, Han Laocheng managed Gansu well. But he was not qualified to be king, so the Han Dynasty made Han Lao the king of Xiliang.
The two sides have just formed an alliance, and the Han family is at its peak. They were willing to make friends with Han Fengxian, and their "love became increasingly close". Now the Han army came.
The outcome is unknown.
Let's do this for now, slip away.
"A bunch of unloyal guys." Han Fengxian became furious and cursed. But now he has no time to worry about this.
He was also panicking. There was no preparation for a sudden attack.
And for the cavalry, the distance of ten miles can be reached in an instant.
"Quickly. Beat the drums and call the troops. No. Don't call the troops. Beat the drums. Immediately send people to close the city gates, order the soldiers to wear armor, and board the city to guard."
"Send people to spread the news so that other prefectures and counties can be prepared."
Han Feng calmed down and shouted.
"Yes." The soldier responded, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and ran out.
"Wu Nian. Wu Nian. I'm your ancestor. You're a completely ungrateful bastard." Han Fengxian couldn't hold it back and cursed loudly. He asked his soldiers to quickly get their armor and put it on neatly. They got on their horses and headed towards the city wall.
The situation in the city is very bad.
When the people learned that the Han army was coming, the merchants hurriedly closed their shops, and the people hurried home. The outsiders trapped in the city were like headless chickens, not knowing what to do.
The three thousand Gansu soldiers were in chaos for a while.
Mainly because I was not prepared.
Someone took leave and couldn't come back for a while.
There are people having fun in the city, such as drinking and hanging out.
When an officer finds a soldier, the soldier finds an officer. The soldiers and officers were neatly dressed and climbed onto the city wall when the Han army was already approaching the city.
Han Fengxian held the handle of the sword at his waist with his left hand and looked down at the Han soldiers. He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile on his face: "You really go deep alone, without any logistics."
"It's not a big problem."
Wang Gui stopped his horse, looked up at Pingliang City ahead, and gasped a few times.
"You are really old." After adjusting his breathing, he said to a Qianhu next to him: "Go and make a ladder."
"It doesn't matter if it's rough, it must be strong."
Wang Gui raised his eyes and looked at the sky. It was noon.
"There must be chaos in the city now. If we can't take the opportunity to invade the city, it will be difficult for them to gain a foothold."
Wang Gui said again.
"Yes." The Qianhu responded and went down with his Ouchi guards to make a ladder.
"You lead troops to nearby villages. Buy the food from the villagers at a high price. If the villagers don't sell it, don't use force."
Wang Gui turned his head and said to a Qianhu next to him.
"Yes." The Qianhu clasped his fists, reined in his horse and got off.
Wang Gui took a deep breath, turned the horse's head, faced the remaining three thousand soldiers, and shouted: "Athletes, the cavalry galloped to the gate of Pingliang City. I know you are tired."
"But. You must take the city ahead. Even if you have to die."
"For the great cause of the Emperor. Give up your lives and die at the front."
"yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The Ouchi guards roared loudly, their auras extremely heroic.
Invasion is like fire, invincible.
You can catch tigers by going up the mountain, and you can catch dragons by going into the water.
The emperor's personal soldiers and imperial guards.
