Chapter 179

Sun Jian snorted: "Zhang Qiqi is too weak. It's just the so-called kindness that doesn't lead the army. Dong Zhuo is so arrogant and rude. Who will listen to him in the future?"

Cheng Pu said with a smile: "it's just a pity that the fake festival in his hand."

Before Zhang Wen's expedition to the West in August, he was granted the title of general of chariots and horses by the Emperor Ling. The so-called fake Festival is also a fake Festival Yue, which is an axe Yue, which is a kind of torture tool exclusive to the king. Therefore, the festival represents the identity of the emperor, but the envoys holding the festival are equivalent to the emperor's presence.

As a short-term agent, Zhang Wen held it during his expedition to the west, but he had to hand it over again after the war in Northwest China ended. Therefore, holding a festival is divided into fake Festival and festival. The high official holding the festival is equivalent to having the privilege of "beheading first and then playing". They can kill the officials below 2000 stones in the local area, that is, the officials below the prefectures, and kill whatever they say.

However, the fake Festival fell into the hands of Zhang Wen, which is equivalent to a weak scholar holding a killing sword. It can be said that it has no effect at all.

"Well, go back to the camp. Anyway, Zhang Qiqi is the highest military officer in Northwest China. Let's listen to him." Sun Jian sighed. The three generals followed him indignantly and walked back to the camp.

Zhang Wen, led by more than 100000 troops stationed in meiyang, remained calm all day. In the blink of an eye, it was November of the second year of Zhongping.

Although there are nearly 100000 troops in the Qiang people's barracks, there is no movement in the barracks, because the Qiang people's army has been in confrontation with the government for more than three months in meiyang. During the period, the officers and soldiers launched several exploratory attacks, but all of them were intercepted by the Qiang people, and no major war broke out.

Therefore, the Qiang people in the camp are lazy and don't want to move. Only some active Qiang people will go out of the camp to bask in the sun, but at night, most of them will return to the camp.

"Yang duo, Yang duo, come out and have a look."

Yang duo, who was lying lazily on the ground, heard his companion's call, stretched out and went out and said, "what are you doing? Don't sleep at night Yes

Yang duo just walked out of the camp, suddenly opened his mouth and couldn't believe looking at the scene in front of him.

On the dark sky, a meteor suddenly crossed the sky, dragging up a long tail in the air, showing a red light.

This meteor across the sky, seems to be not far from the ground, red light from the sky spread down, lit up most of the Qiang company camp.

When the horses were caught in the red light, they were very uncomfortable. They raised their heads and hissed one after another, trampled on the ground with four hooves, and even tried to break free from bondage.

Yang duo rushed forward, trying to hold down his horse. As a result, he ran to the horse, and his horse's big nostrils and hooves kept kicking.

Yang duo hurried forward to embrace the horse. As a result, jujube red horse even raised two hind hooves and kicked it out. The one who jumped up was just about to be kicked. It was as if two war hammers were knocking on his chest. Only a click was heard. Yang duo lay down on the ground and moaned.

With the red light shining, the Qiang people's army is in chaos. The Qiang soldiers are running around and their horses are restless. The Qiang camp is almost full of shouts, and even Beigong Boyu is startled.

Beigong Boyu frowned and asked, "what's going on? Is it the Han Army attacking the camp?"

The guard at the door went out to ask for a while, and then came back and said, "general, there is red in the sky, and the red light shines into the camp."

"What?"

Beigong Boyu was surprised. He was used to the sky and the red light came into the camp. This was a bad omen Is it difficult?

He got out of bed and walked back and forth in the camp. He felt a breath in his chest, so he walked out of the camp. The night wind was blowing, but he still frowned.

"General."

When he looked back, he saw that Han Sui and Bian Zhang came together. He could not help grasping Bian Zhang's hand. He said with a worried face: "Sir, you have seen the red light shining into the camp today. Is this an ominous omen?"

The side chapter also frowned: "general, this is strange, we'd better retreat for the time being."

When Beigong Boyu heard that the frontier seal that he always valued said so, he nodded solemnly: "OK, I will withdraw the army these days and return to Jincheng county."

"No!"

Han Sui shook his head: "it is man's plan and heaven's success. The Han Army and our army confront each other in meiyang in March. The consumption of grain and grass is very large. Our army is mostly light cavalry, which can cut off the food channel of the Han army with light troops. The chance of winning will come soon."

Beigong Boyu was stunned, but Bian Zhang immediately retorted: "this is not true! In the past, Emperor Guangwu fought against the 420000 troops of Xinmang in Kunyang, and the meteors fell from the sky. Emperor Guangwu led his troops to fight and defeated the 420000 troops of Xinmang in one fell swoop. Isn't it the same when the red light shines into the camp

Han Sui argued: "in the battle of Kunyang, Emperor Guangwu, a meteor fell into the Xinmang military camp and became a pit. Now it is just a red light shining into the camp. How can we say the same thing?"

Bian Zhang and Han Sui immediately argued with each other, citing the classics. They even talked about the Western Han Dynasty and the first emperor of Qin Dynasty.

"All rightAfter Beigong Boyu had a big drink, Bian Zhang and Han Sui stopped to watch him together. Although he usually respected the two famous men in Xiliang, he was the main decision-maker in the army.

"The red light shining into the camp is a bad omen. I'll tell you to go down and prepare to withdraw."

After Beigong Boyu's decision, Han couldn't help frowning: it's dangerous to start a rebellion. Now the imperial court has sent a large army to suppress it. If you retreat back to Jincheng County, you will be surrounded by Han army. It will be more difficult to win.

"General."

"Well, you two, go down and have a rest. It will have been a decision."

Han then opened his mouth and wanted to make the last effort, but he was rejected by Beigong Boyu.

Han then sighed and bowed slightly to the northern palace. He lowered his head and said, "here, I'll leave."

Bian Zhang and Han Sui withdrew from the account. Bian Zhang immediately complained: "Wenyue, what's the matter with you? How do you deliberately want to contradict me?"

Han Sui snorted: "we have already started a rebellion. Where can we go back? We must not withdraw our troops. "

Bian Zhang shook his head: "red used to the sky, so is the will of God. Moreover, we and the Han Army in meiyang confrontation in March, the grain and grass will not be able to supply, it's better to return to Jincheng county and reorganize."

Han then snorted coldly and left.

"In that case, withdraw the troops."

Bian Zhang frowned: "Wenyue, Wenyue?" However, Han Sui ignored the Bian Zhang at all, turned around and left. Bian Zhang sighed and shook his head.
