Chapter 056 We still have to fight in the end

Huang Zhong opened the map. He judged that the unstoppable Xiongnu had missed Yongan and would definitely attack Pingyang. Then they would attack Yangxian and Xiangling, because Yangxian and Xiangling at this time were like beating a dog behind closed doors. , you can knead it as much as you want.

And if Pingyang was not captured, Xiangling on the mountain would definitely be safe, but Yang County was not necessarily safe. Huang Zhong took the remaining 1000 soldiers to escort the people of Yang County to Xiangling.

When Huang Zhong arrived in Xiangling, it was already May 5. As soon as he arrived in Xiangling, he met Zhang Ji. Huang Zhong was stunned for half a second and then became furious. When he was about to pick up his knife, the Huns coming.

Huang Zhong and Zhang Ji were stunned, wondering why the Huns came here.

The question is, why did the Huns come here?

南匈奴人6000轻兵破大陵、阳邑后，于5月2日先后破平陶、兹氏、祁县、京陵、邬县，又于5月5日攻克界休。

But at this time, there were only more than 6000 of the 4000 light soldiers left, and there were more than 1000 wounded. They had to rest for 6 days on the 2th, and then continued to move towards Yong'an on the 8th.

As we all know, Huang Zhong ran away on May 5, and arrived in Yong'an on May 6 to defeat the Southern Huns. After discovering Yang County, he divided his troops into half, and the remaining half went south to attack Pingyang.

The half of the Southern Huns who went to Yang County arrived on May 5th, but found that Yang County was also empty. This made the Southern Huns anxious because all their food was plundered.

When they set out, the Southern Huns only brought a few days of rations and came across the mountains. After that, they broke into the city and captured them. Originally, the Southern Huns thought that there was food in Yong'an, so they were relieved, but in the end they were attacked in Yong'an. null.

After discovering the nearby Yang County, the Southern Huns divided their troops. Those who went to Yang County were not given food, while those who went to Pingyang were given food. However, the reality seemed to be a huge joke.

Yang County is also empty.

The anxious 2000 Southern Huns found traces of relocation after some searching, so they followed the traces and advanced all the way. They found Xiangling and launched an attack on Xiangling on May 5.

So what happened to the 2000 Southern Huns who went to Pingyang?

The answer is that they were completely wiped out, and they were surrounded by Duan Yan and the fifth school of the Northern Army.

The Northern Army was the garrison guard who guarded the capital in the Han Dynasty.

Weiyang Palace is in the southwest of the capital, and its guards are called the Southern Army; Changle Palace is in the east and north of the capital, and its guards are called the Northern Army.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the Northern and Southern armies were united. After that, the number of palaces increased day by day. The name of the Southern Army disappeared, while the name of the Northern Army remained.

At first, it was commanded by a lieutenant. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Northern Army was expanded and the middle base of the Northern Army was changed to a middle base captain.

Seven more lieutenants were added, including Tunqi, Infantry, Yueqi, Changshui, Huqi, Shesheng, and Huben. They were stationed in and around Chang'an City and went into battle with the army. The lieutenant was also renamed Zhijinwu and no longer commanded the Northern Army.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the middle base was omitted, and the Hu cavalry entered Changshui, and the tigers and tigers entered the shooting sound. The Zhonghou of the Northern Army was placed to supervise the five battalions, which was called the Fifth School of the Northern Army.

After Zhou Wenwen took power in the military, he reorganized the five schools of the Northern Army with his financial resources. The current organization is as follows:

The Zhonghou of the Northern Army has ten officers to supervise the army and has no soldiers.

There are 150 officers and 600 leaders in charge of the garrison and cavalry school.

The Yue Cavalry School Captain has one hundred and thirty officers and six hundred leading officers.

The infantry captain has seventy-five officers and six hundred leaders.

The Changshui captain had a hundred and fifty officers. Since he no longer wanted to recruit the Wuheng people, he chose heavy cavalry to join the army and established a total of one thousand and two people.

Shesheng Xiaowei has one hundred and fifty officers and nine hundred leaders.

The question is, who will lead the five schools of the Northern Army?

In the Yellow Turban War, the five schools of the Northern Army were led by Huangfu Chong. However, during the battle and the subsequent Battle of Liangzhou, the five schools of the Northern Army suffered heavy casualties, forcing Huangfuchong to form the Liangzhou Army, and the five schools of the Northern Army had to withdraw. Fight and return to Luoyang.

After the fifth academy of the Northern Army returned to Luoyang, Li Ru and Jia Xu replenished its shortage of soldiers and armor. After Zhou Wenwen adapted it, its combat effectiveness surpassed that of all the other armies. Zhou Wenwen thought about it and decided to let Duan Xuan lead the army.

Duan Xuan, courtesy name Zhongming, was a native of Guzang, Wuwei County (today's Wuwei City, Gansu Province). He was a general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and a brother of the Eastern Han Dynasty Taiwei Duan Juan. He was from the same hometown as Taiwei Jia Xu, Zhang Ji, and Xuanwei Marquis Zhang Xiu.

He was originally a general under Dong Zhuo. He was ordered to station troops in Huayin and work hard in agriculture.

In the second year of Xingping (195), he welcomed Han Xian Emperor Liu Xiedong back to Luoyang and provided him with food, clothing and supplies. However, he had a disagreement with the escorting general Yang Ding, which led to a fierce battle for more than ten days. He followed Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie's advice.

In the third year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty (198), he attacked Huangbaicheng, killed Li Jue, and the other three Yi tribes. He was granted the title of General Zhenyuan, Marquis of Tingxiang, and Prefect of Beidi. He was moved to Dahonglu and Jinguanglu. He died in the 209th year of Jian'an ( years).

In March of the second year of Chuping (191), Sun Jian captured Luoyang. Dong Zhuo retreated to Chang'an and then set up defenses along the way. Among them was Duan Xuan, who then ordered Duan Xuan to garrison Huayin.

When Duan Xuan was in Huayin, he diligently cultivated agricultural undertakings and did not rob the people, so that the people could live in peace and contentment.

In the second year of Xingping (195), Li Jue and Guo Si attacked each other for several months. Liu Xie missed the old capital of Luoyang very much, and Liu Xie proposed to move eastward to Hongnong (the seat of Hongnong County in the Han Dynasty, in today's Lingbao County, Henan Province). North), so the move to the east was determined.

When Liu Xie drove into Huayin, Duan Xuan welcomed Emperor Xian to stay in his military camp with a grand ceremony. It turned out that there was some gap between Duan Yan and Yang Ding who was escorting the chariot, so he did not dare to dismount when welcoming the chariot and only bowed on the horse. .

The servant Zhong Jisu had a close relationship with Yang Ding, so he took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Duan Xuan wants to rebel."

Liu Xie said: "Duan Xuan came to welcome us. How can we say that he is rebelling?"

Zhong Ji said: "He couldn't greet him, couldn't get off his horse, and his face changed drastically. He must have different intentions."

Lieutenant Yang Biao and others tried their best to defend: "Duan Xuan will never rebel at all. We dare to use our heads as guarantee. Chejia can live in his military camp."

Dong Cheng and Yang Ding were both instigating: "Guo Si is now leading 700 cavalry into the camp."

Liu Xiexin thought it was true and slept in the open in Daonan.

Yang Ding attacked the camp and could not capture it for more than ten days, but Duan continued to provide meals and serve the officials as usual, without any second thoughts.

Li Jue and Guo Si regretted allowing Emperor Xian to move eastward, so they led an invasion in the name of rescuing Duan Xuan, preparing to rob Liu Xie and return to Chang'an.

The famous scholar Jia Xu and Duan Xuan were from the same hometown. When Li Jue and Guo Si fought in Chang'an, he left Li Jue and joined Duan Xuan.

Jia Xu has always been very prestigious and admired by Duan Yan's army. Duan Yan was afraid that Jia Xu would seize his military power, but on the surface he was very polite to Jia Xu.

When Jia Xu saw it, he felt uneasy.

Zhang Xiu of Nanyang had secret contacts with Jia Xu, so Zhang Xiu sent someone to greet Jia Xu.

When Jia Xu was leaving, someone asked Jia Xu: "Duan Xuan treats you so well, why do you want to leave?"

Jia Xu said: "Duan Xuan is suspicious by nature, and he is suspicious of me. Although his treatment is generous, he cannot be relied on. If he stays for a long time, he will definitely hurt him. And I will be very happy to leave him. He also expects me to keep foreign aid and treat me well." My family. And Zhang Xiu lacks counselors, so he is very willing to get me, so that my family and I can be preserved."
