Chapter 46 General, run away

The light changes from dark to bright, and the screen switches rapidly.

As soon as the scene started, Ma Di saw Zhang Xiu clasped his hands and asked:
"General, it's time to go!"

To be honest, when Ma Di heard this sentence suddenly, his heart trembled and he almost jumped up.

The scene of "people in the street pavilion, waiting to die" appeared involuntarily in front of my eyes.

That scene really gave him an unforgettable fright.

Fortunately, these unpleasant past events have become a thing of the past.

Today's Ma Di is no longer the submissive Ma Di during the Battle of Jieting.

Today, he has won consecutive battles and is about to show his fangs and strike hard.

Li Sheng flattered him without losing the opportunity: "General, when will you become the prime minister's number one general?"

Ma Di looked around, glanced at the five thousand soldiers who were in high spirits, waved his hands, and said in high spirits: "When is it?"

"Just today!"

"set off!"

He didn't believe it yet, Zhang Xi, who had been walking for two days, would lie in ambush on the road ahead.

Xiabian City must be in his pocket!

As soon as the military order was issued, the army drove to Xiabian County along the Xiabian Ancient Road.

When it comes to distinguishing ways, we have to mention the current situation in Wudu County and Yinping County.

"Tao" is the collective name of the Han people for the settlements of Qiang and Di.Because Qiang and Di live together in Wudu and Yinping counties, the folk customs are tough and brave.Therefore, the danger of Han people passing through here is very high.

The most common thing that happened was robbery.

No way, the maxim that the Qiang people believe in is "I am the master of my land"; or "I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass by, leave money for the road."

They are not afraid of anyone, they are very brave.

This can be seen from the fact that thousands of people dared to take the initiative to attack Cao Cao's 10,000+ army.

Because Wudu and Yinping counties have been in a state of self-government for a long time since the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Therefore, whether it was the battle of Xiabian in 23 years of Jian'an, Zhuge Liang's attack on Longyou by Xiabian last time, or Zhang Yun's attack on Hanzhong through Xiabian this time, they were all just taking advantage of the Western Qiang people's territory.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why the Xiqiang people dared to attack Cao Cao and rob Zhang Yun's army with confidence.

For the Qiang people, when outsiders came to their territory, they had to crawl if they were tigers, or coiled up if they were dragons.

If not, then fuck him to death!

Even so, the situation in the two counties is slightly different.

Wudu County was established in the Qin Dynasty. At that time, Wudu Road was the seat of the government, and it had jurisdiction over Wudu Road, Shanglu County, Gudao, Hechi County, Ju County, Pingle Road, Jialing Road, Xuncheng Road, and Xiabian Road.

In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court dismissed Pingle Road, Jialing Road, and Xuncheng Road, and moved Wu Junzhi to Xiabian County, which was changed to Liangzhou Governor's Department.At the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao divided Sizhou and Liangzhou into Yongzhou, and Wudu County was changed to Yongzhou.

Although Wudu County was changed to Yongzhou, Cao Cao did not actually occupy Wudu County.Cao Cao only crossed Chencang from Chang'an, left Sanguan and entered Wudu when he marched west to Zhanglu in the 20th year of Jian'an, and then detoured eastward to attack Yangping Pass.When passing through Wudu, he encountered fierce resistance from the local Qiang and Di people.

Cao Cao's target at that time was only Zhang Lu, not the Wudu and Yinping occupied by the Qiang and Di people, so he sent Zhang He and other generals to clear the way, attack and kill the Di and Qiang people, and briefly occupied Wudu County.

After the defeat in the Battle of Hanzhong, Cao Cao had to abandon Wudu.But Cao Cao was afraid that Liu Bei would use Wudu as his base to threaten Longyou and even Guanzhong, so he moved more than [-] Di people to Guanzhong.

After Cao Cao retreated, Wudu County returned to the control of the Qiang people.Zhuge Liang's previous Northern Expedition was called to take the way of Wudu, but in fact it was to use the way of Wudu.

To put it bluntly, the territory of Wudu County is the territory of the Qiang people, and it is also a buffer zone between the Shu Han and the Cao Wei.

In other words, anyone can pass through here, but they all have to pay a price, either money or human life.

This is also the fundamental reason why Liu Bei treated Ma Chao kindly. After Ma Chao defected to the Shu Han, Liu Bei gave him a very high official position without making any achievements.Because Ma Chao had a high prestige among the Qiang people, the Qiang people looked at Ma Chao's face and gave Liu Bei's army a lot of help in the Battle of Xiabian, which indirectly determined the outcome of the Battle of Hanzhong.

But this favor was not for nothing. Despite Ma Chao's face, the Qiang people still demanded a lot of Liu Bei's property.But for Liu Bei, giving some property is a trivial matter, and bringing Hanzhong into the Shu Han territory is a major event.

If the Battle of Jingzhou did not break out later, Liu Bei's next goal must be Wudu County, which has a strategic location and has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and then he will go north step by step to encroach on Cao Wei's territory.

It's a pity that Guan Yu suffered a crushing defeat in Jingzhou, and even his head was cut off. Liu Bei was busy with his revenge on the Eastern Expedition, and his plan to capture Wudu was stranded.

This delay is ten years.

The situation in Yinping County is relatively simple. It is currently the stronghold of the Qiang people.Yinping County was established by Cao Cao in the 18th year of Jian'an (213).At that time, Cao Cao defeated Ma Chao and Han Sui, pacified Liangzhou, then abolished Liangzhou and merged it into Yongzhou, abolished Guanghan vassal state, established Yinping County, and the government was located in Yinping.

However, this is only a nominal setting, Cao Cao did not station troops and county guards in Yinping County.

The Qiang people also disagreed with Cao Cao's actions, so they did not hesitate to fight Cao Cao.

Although they are small in number, they have never lost to anyone in terms of momentum.

At that time, Cao Cao was busy fighting with Liu Bei and Sun Quan, so he just wanted to conquer Yinping and Wudu.

The main reason is that there are almost no Han people in these two places, and it is extremely difficult to manage after the conquest, and a lot of manpower and resources will be wasted.

It can be said that it is tasteless to eat, and it is not a pity to discard it.

As a result, the two counties of Longnan formed the current situation.

Zhang Yun's garrison in Wudu had already aroused the dissatisfaction of the Qiang people. The Qiang people's support of the Shu army's food and grass was the first step, the robbing of the Wei army's food and grass was the second step, and the direct war was the third step.

Taking advantage of Zhang Yun's war with the Qiang people, Ma Su wanted to seize Xiabian City and control the entrances to Longyou in the name of helping the Qiang people drive away the Wei army.

After taking this place, you can enter Longyou, and retreat to control Wudu and Yinping.

All benefits and no harm!
Especially considering that the Western Qiang people now have a high degree of favorability for the Shu Han, it can be said that there is no pressure for the Shu Han to actually control the two places.

But things often do not depend on people's will.

Ma Di's army had just set off, and before they had walked a hundred miles away, the prime minister's military order arrived.

The messenger Xu Shen quickly caught up with the army, and said in a deep voice: "The Prime Minister's military order, Ma Di is guarding Lueyang and Weixian, and he must not move lightly!"

Ma Di was stunned for a moment, and blurted out:

"why?"

His tone was extremely blank and erratic.It seems to be asking the sky and the earth.

Or ask yourself.

Such a good fighter...

Just watch it slip away?
It's simply unreasonable!

Xu Shen didn't speak, but his expression was extremely serious, which showed that this was the prime minister's military order and it could not be changed.

Ma Su came back to his senses, grabbed Xu Shen by the collar, and said angrily, "Why?"

"My intuition tells me that the Prime Minister will not make such a ridiculous decision!"

"will not!"

"If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, I refuse to listen to the order!"

"I will accept military orders abroad!"

Xu Shen nodded: "General, your intuition is right."

"Earlier, the army was running out of food and grass, and the prime minister had the intention of withdrawing the troops. Yang Yi spoke in front of the prime minister again, saying that you privately withheld the army's food and grass, and the food transport officer Gou An personally testified that this was indeed the case."

"The prime minister was furious when he heard this, and he is leading the army back now."

Having said this, Xu Shen hesitated for a while, and said again: "General, why don't you... run away?" "

Fuck, this group of pig teammates who will only slow down... Ma Di was shocked, and thought bitterly:

"Made, I thought I was already the ceiling of the world of lies. There is no need to write a draft of a lie, and it will come out as soon as it is written.I didn't expect to be compared with Gou An...'

"I'm the fucking younger brother."

After the slander was over, Ma Di glanced at Xu Shen with a bad look on his face.

Is this guy trying to encourage me to treason, so that I can get all the stolen goods!
Then take off my head to ask for credit?
I do know that he has bad intentions for me!

Do you want to take the opportunity to do him first...to eliminate hidden dangers invisible?
Xu Shen was terrified by Ma Di's stare, backed away again and again, waved his hands and said: "General, misunderstood, misunderstood!"

"Since the first battle in Chencang, I have been impressed by the general's celestial demeanor, and this persuasion to escape is really from the bottom of my heart. If the general really tried to withhold the military rations, the prime minister...he will definitely not let you off lightly!"

"General, you'd better run, it's too late."

Running away?Hehe. I can't explain it completely after running away.

Ma Di shook his head, seeing that Xu Shen was already one of his own, he stopped staring at him, pondered for a moment, and gradually became firm in his thoughts.

"Come here, tie up Xu Shen!"

"The whole army obeys the order, and the soldiers are dispatched to Biancheng!"
