One hundred and twenty-six the devastated spirit emperor

The situation in Juyongguan gradually became clear, and the combat effectiveness of Guo Peng's army that he had carefully trained for several years was confirmed. Taking advantage of Guancheng, he repeatedly defeated the attacks of the Wuwan people.

Wu Yan was very angry. He felt that it was a shameless thing for him to have the advantage but could not defeat Guo Peng.

So he forced the army to attack fiercely several times, completely ignoring the actual situation, causing the army's morale to fluctuate and people's hearts to be unstable.

Guo Peng commanded the army to fight back with rain of arrows, rolling wood and stones, hot water and gold juice.

Guo Peng can accept it now and is willing to use gold juice to clean up the enemy.

Golden juice is indeed a magical weapon to defend the city. As long as the rebels rushed to the bottom of the city tower and poured golden juice directly, they could not only kill the enemy, but also make the smell extremely unpleasant. The rebels dared not or were willing to approach.

Of course, sometimes this is also a double-edged sword. If you cannot adapt to this smell in time and do not smell the stench, it will at least be difficult to swallow the rice.

The strong smell around people will make people feel illusioned while eating, and thus vomit.

Cao Hong did not follow Guo Peng to fight the Guangzong battle, so he vomited and didn't have a good meal for several days.

However, the Han army was very effective in defending the city. The Wuwan people temporarily rushed to the infantry. Although they were commanded by Han rebel officers, they still did a very poor job.

Therefore, the Wuhuan people were injured in large numbers and did not receive timely treatment. The number of people who died after being injured far exceeded the number of people killed by the Han army on the battlefield.

Seeing the Wuhuan people rushing forward with big shields without paying attention to strategy and tactics, Guo Peng increasingly felt that an excellent military advisor was a necessary existence.

To obtain the maximum benefit with the minimum loss to achieve the initial goal is the meaning of the military advisor's existence. Without a complete strategic plan, it is fruitless to bump around like a headless fly.

Wu Yan's headless fly was ramming around, so don't blame Guo Peng for slapping him to death with a quick swatter.

When the time is right, Guo Peng decided to take action.

He exposes the turmoil and indulges in the bigotry in order to make contributions, to honor and benefit, and to have the confidence to pacify it. Therefore, if he can't pacify it, it will be a failure.

As the captain of Huwuwan, he also had certain responsibilities for the rebellion of the Karasuma.

However, it is interesting that the Captain Huwuwan generally does not participate in the war between the hostile Wuwan and the Han Dynasty, but instead actively participates in the war between the Southern Xiongnu and the Xianbei, which seems to have become a convention.

But when things come, these taboos are not taken care of at this time. As long as the Han army is concerned about the major rebellion, the Han army has the obligation to defeat the other party.

For several consecutive days, every night, Guo Peng ordered the army to attack the Wuwan camp in the first half of the night.

The Wuwan people suffered a loss at first, but later they learned their lessons and guarded them strictly. The Han army attacked several nights in the following days as usual, and the Wuwan people became accustomed to it.

On the evening of the eighth day of the fifth month, Guo Peng led his army to rectify and ordered Cao Ren and Cao Hong to lead the army to attack Wuwan camp at night. The Wuwan people were prepared. Cao Ren and Cao Hong led their troops to fight for a while and withdrew their troops back.

Not long afterwards, Guo Peng ordered Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan to lead their troops to attack Wuwan camp at night. The Wuwan people were still prepared. Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan fought for a while and retreated.

So there was no war again in the first half of the night. Wu Yan was relieved to believe that the Han army was defeated twice and did not dare to attack again. So he went back to sleep with confidence, leaving only a few night patrol soldiers under his management.

At about two or three o'clock in the second half of the night, a west wind blew.

At this time, it is also the darkest and most ripe time for people to sleep.

Guo Peng took the Han army out of the city and attacked at night. The Han army was extremely careful in action, and walked and crawled, and reached the front of Wuwan camp.

The night attack began.

It was already late at night when Guo Peng led his troops to fight the Wuwan people, but at the same time, Emperor Ling, who was far away in Luoyang, did not sleep. He summoned the main ministers in the court to discuss matters urgently in the palace.

The content of the matter is naturally what the governor of Youzhou said in the above statement that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju rebelled.

The reason why Guo Peng was suppressed because the Wuwan people killed his subordinates was that the war in the northwest was in full swing. Han Sui had more than 100,000 people invaded Sanfu and caused chaos. Emperor Ling was in a panic and naturally did not allow another war to occur in the northeast direction.

As a result, the war still happened.

It also involved the rebellion of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun, who had been an official of two thousand stones, which was really a worse person.

There was Wuhuan outside and treason inside. The two armies united, with more than 100,000 people raging in Liaodong. Liaodong was in crisis, and the clan members urgently sought help.

"The thieves in Liangzhou are in chaos, and the thieves in Liaodong are in chaos! Han Sui deserves to die! Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun deserves to die! Can't they let the Han Dynasty be stable for a few years?! Can't they let me be stable for a few years?"

After finally spending a stable three years in Zhongping, four years came, war broke out, and Emperor Ling was very angry and scolded him. The ministers were worried, and some sneered secretly.

If the Qiu Liju Rebellion may be because the previous conflict between the Wuwan people and Gongsun Zan made Qiu Liju feel fear, then the Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun Rebellion is really unexpected.

To investigate the reason, some people mentioned that Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun once recommended himself to Zhang Wen as a general before Gongsun Zan led the army, hoping to participate in the suppression of the rebellion, but Zhang Wen refused.

There may be such reasons for their rebellion, but more importantly, it may be because they saw the court in the quagmire of war in Liangzhou and were fearless.

During the day, the court had just received the second request for help from the clan.

The request for help said that the prefect of Yuyang, the prefect of Liaoxi and the prefect of Youbeiping were both killed by Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellion army. Now the rebellion army has attacked Jixian and Shanggu, and is trying to sweep the northern border.

Not only that, Zhang Ju also claimed to be the emperor and appointed Zhang Chun as king. He openly broke with the Han court and hoped that the court would make arrangements early.

Emperor Ling was very anxious and ordered the ministers to discuss countermeasures and send troops to quell the rebellion.

"The elites of the court were taken by Zhang Wen to attack Han Sui, so where were there elites? In order to attack Han Sui, the court paid too much money and couldn't afford more money."

"But the Youzhou Rebellion must not be upheld, otherwise the rebels will threaten Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Hebei. Once things go big, Luoyang will not be stable!"

"You said it lightly, with more than 100,000 troops in chaos, and even the Wuwan people followed him. How many soldiers and horses would be needed to attack?"

"First select good generals from the court to lead troops. Otherwise, once the clan member is defeated, Youzhou will be in danger! Jizhou will be in danger! Hebei will be in danger!"

A group of ministers argued in a few words. The more Emperor Ling heard it, he became more and more irritable. In a blink of an eye, he saw Lu Zhi frowning and thinking hard, and suddenly remembered that Lu Zhi was opposed to Gongsun Zan's leadership of the army.

What happened later really confirmed Lu Zhi's guess. Now he felt that Lu Zhi is still useful, so he asked Lu Zhi.
