Geng Bi watched all the troops perform martial arts outside guzang. He personally rewarded those who were good at riding and shooting. Zhang jaw and pound competed in shooting skills. Finally, Liu Ye sat on the head of the city and shot through the stake with an arrow. After watching the fierce generals compete in shooting skills, the morale of Liangzhou army suddenly rose. Although most of them were new recruits, they had extraordinary fighting power under the high morale.
After that, Geng Bi personally inspected all the troops. Except the surrounded Longxi County, all the reinforcements sent by other counties except Jiuquan county had arrived.
Wudu County has 80000 people and 12000 troops.
Anding county has a population of 27000 and troops of 4000.
There are more than 18000 people in beidijun, and 3000 troops are sent out.
There are more than 34000 people in Wuwei County, and 7000 troops are sent. However, 5000 of them are taken to rescue Longxi County by Zhizhong middle range ball. Therefore, only 2000 people are left as Geng Bi's Pro army.
There are 6000 soldiers from Zhangye county.
Dunhuang county has 30000 mouths and 5000 troops.
In addition, the Tianshui county where Liu Ye is located sent 10000 troops. The total number of troops of Liangzhou counties this time is 43000, but the reinforcements of Jiuquan county are not included.
The reinforcements of Jiuquan county did not arrive, and Geng bi was too lazy to wait. He directly gave an order to Huang Yan, the prefect of Jiuquan county. The army moved southward, and the reinforcements of Jiuquan County immediately went south to meet.
In April of the fourth year of Zhongping, Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, joined forces of Liangzhou counties to attack Han Sui.
On this day, the army arrived at Didao, and Geng Bi received a good news.
"Governor Shi, the soldiers and horses of huangjun of Jiuquan county are ten miles away, and they are approaching our army."
Ma Teng's tall figure suddenly entered the army tent and said to Geng Bi.
Geng Bi raised his head with a happy look on his face: "Oh, the Yellow sheriff is coming?"
Jiuquan county is one of the largest counties in Liangzhou, with a population of 60000. In addition to Tianshui county and Wudu County, Jiuquan county will be another one. If Huang Yan leads the army, there will be at least 10000 troops. In this way, the total number of troops will exceed 50000, and the chance of winning will be further increased.
"It's so good. How many military horses has Huang Jun Shou brought?" Geng Bi asked.
Ma Teng is also full of excitement: "governor, Huang Jun Shou has brought 20000 troops!"
"What?" Geng bi was shocked and had a total of 20000 troops. Could Huang Yannan bring all the men in Jiuquan county? After all, the total population of Jiuquan county is 60000, and the number of men is about 30000. In this way, except for children and old men, it is afraid that all the young people will be pulled out.
"With so many people coming, will Jiuquan county have to drink from the north and the west next year?" Geng Bi couldn't help frowning. Although he issued a recruitment order, there was a limit. However, the number of people brought by Huang Yan was too large, which would inevitably affect the spring ploughing in the next year. At that time, it would be difficult for the governor's office to provide relief.
Ma Teng was persuasive: "Huang Jun Shou has brought the army now, and what else I'm afraid is of no help. Otherwise, I'd better go and see Huang Jun Shou first."
Geng Bi snorted and sighed: "well, it's the only way for today."
After that, Geng Bi walked out of the camp, while Ma Teng followed him out of the camp.
There was smoke and dust on the opposite side. A large army came slowly, with a yellow flag on it. It was obviously the army of Huang Yan, the prefect of Jiuquan county.
The army marched in an orderly manner, with an air of bravery up and down. Anyone can see that this army is not a novice, even if it is not a hundred battle elite.
Ma Teng, who has been fighting for a long time, can't help but frown: most of Huang Yan's subordinates are new recruits. Why can they be so smart that they can't look down on Huang Yan? Is he a master of the art of war?
Ma Teng couldn't help but wonder in his chest. He said to Geng Bi in front of him: "governor, how many troops did you know before Jiuquan county?"
Geng Bi turned back and said, "about 6000 people. What's the matter?"
Ma Teng's face was full of doubts: "now Huang Yan has come to support 20000 soldiers, among which only four or one of them are veterans. However, this army is marching in an orderly manner and has a fierce temperament. It is definitely not like an army with a large number of new recruits."
Geng Bi frowned the same way. He was good at military affairs in Liangzhou. Before, he just felt that he was not strong. But when he heard Ma Teng say this, he understood immediately.
"Maybe Huang Yan listed the elite troops in the front, and all the new recruits were in the rear?"
"Maybe..."
Ma Teng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it. He had to follow Geng Bi and go on.
After seeing Geng Bi from afar, Huang Yan immediately stepped down from his horse, followed by more than 100 personal guards, and walked towards Geng Bi.
However, after seeing Ma Teng by Geng Bi's side, Huang Yan, with sharp eyes, frowned and said to a man: "have you seen the tall man around Geng Bi?"
"Yes, why?"
"His name is Ma Teng. He is Sima in Geng Bi's army. He is very brave. You should be careful later.""Well, I see."
After he finished speaking, he closed his mouth. Then he raised his head slightly and looked at the opposite side with sinister eyes. He saw Geng Bi wearing armor and robe, walking along, surrounded by dozens of Pro guards. At the left rear of him, a tall man with firm eyebrows looked quite brave.
"Hum, I have to see who can win this general in such a big Liangzhou within five steps!"
At this time, the distance between Huang Yan and Geng bi was close to 20 steps.
Huang Yan laughed on his face and arched his hand and said, "Huang Yan pays a visit to the governor."
Geng Bi's brow was heavy and his face was gloomy and he said, "governor Huang, I asked you to double your conscription. Why did you enlist 20000 troops? Why don't you call in the swaddling baby and the old man lying on the couch
Huang Yan laughed awkwardly when he heard the speech: "what did Geng Cishi say? Isn't that worrying about the state affairs? Besides, some just put up a recruitment order in Jiuquan County, and all the men of all families joined the army enthusiastically, so there was no way for me to do it. "
Geng Bi snorted: "you have enlisted many armies. How about the autumn harvest this year? Is it possible to allocate relief to sixty thousand people in Jiuquan county from the imperial palace?
Huang Yan lowered his head and said, "I know I was wrong, but now the state affairs are very important. The governor has replaced the lower officials. I have no regrets. But I think it's better to wait until Han Sui, the traitor, has been eliminated and Liangzhou has been pacified, and then the lower official will be convicted again?"
Geng Bi sighed: "it's all right. After you go back, you can reduce your salary for half a year to help Jiuquan county. First, follow me into the camp."
"Here it is." Huang Yan nodded and agreed, but a figure behind him suddenly jumped out and stabbed Geng Bi with a sword!
