several days ago.
To the south of Xiabian is where the Di people usually live.
The moon hangs high in the night sky, looking a little bleak, like a physical store in a third-tier city. It looks good, but in fact it has lost its brilliance.
A troop of Di people slowly walked along the mountain road in the mountains.
At the front were some soldiers on horseback, holding torches high. In addition to people, there were carts carrying heavy supplies, and at the back of the queue, there were some sheep.
This is a very typical Hu people queue, or tribe. Soldiers, cattle, sheep, tents, wherever they go, there is a new home.
The leader of the Di people walking in front looked around, pointed at the vaguely visible rolling hills ahead, and said loudly: "We are almost at Changqingdianzi ahead!" Everyone, try your best to arrive before dawn! 』
The Di people in the queue echoed, and their spirits seemed to have gained some relief from their fatigue.
The leader of the Di people said to the messenger on the side: "Go to the front first, say hello to the people in Changqingdianzi, and say that we are here..."
The leader of the Di people did not hear the messenger's reply, nor did he hear the messenger's horse riding away. He looked back in surprise, his eyes immediately widening.
The soldier holding the order tightly grasped the long arrow that penetrated his chest with both hands, with his mouth wide open, a look of pain and fear on his face. He died without uttering a word. His body slowly fell back on the horse, and then he let out a cry. Tumbled under the horse.
Immediately, the Di Ren leader heard a sharp sound in the air, which seemed to be tearing the air around him. Even the night wind was trembling, shuddering under the sharp cold light...
The leader of the Di people opened his eyes wide, trying to see through the darkness to see what was making the noise, and then suddenly saw countless arrows appearing in the night sky, appearing in his sight like ghosts. The leader of the Di people instinctively let out a scream of despair. He wanted to dodge, but his body refused to obey and froze on the horse's back.
"Pfft...Pfft...Pfft..."
The sound of arrows entering the body was dull and harsh, as dense as rain.
The bodies of the surrounding Di soldiers trembled violently as long arrows continuously flew in, followed by screams, the sound of corpses falling to the ground, the neighing of war horses, and the screams of fear from the Di people. It became a piece, tearing the tranquility of the night into bloody pieces.
In the dark night, the slender fire dragon originally formed by the torch twisted violently in the dark night, trembled, began to break, began to separate, and then exploded and scattered, and the fire began to burst out and scatter in all directions all over the mountains and fields. flee.
The leader of the Di people grabbed the arrow on his body and felt that the arrow was like a blood-sucking monster, sucking and devouring his life quickly. He wanted to roar with the last bit of his strength. He had strength and powerful skills. , but was inexplicably defeated by an arrow without even a chance to fight back. He was unwilling to accept it. He felt that he was too cowardly.
Then, a long arrow suddenly pierced the neck of the leader of the Di people, and penetrated with a shower of blood!
The leader of the Di people shook and finally fell down.
Long arrows whizzed continuously at the Di people in the queue from different directions. The sudden sneak attack dealt a heavy blow to the Di people, causing them heavy casualties. Under the whistling arrows, some of the Di people who were lucky enough to escape the disaster rolled and hid under the car, while others ran into the night in panic, and some women and children huddled in place holding their heads and screaming wildly. …
War drums suddenly sounded on the hills on both sides of the Di people's queue.
The roaring soldiers rushed out from the ridges on both sides, rushed down the hillside, and in the blink of an eye they were in front of the queue of the Di tribe.
The soldiers who ran around the convoy picked up the torches abandoned by the Di people, threw them randomly onto the carriage, and lit everything on it that could be ignited. For a time, most of the vehicles in the convoy were on fire, especially those carrying fodder. The flames were blazing, and the fire illuminated half of the sky.
The swords were flying, and the long arrows were whistling in the firelight.
The Di people were running around like headless flies, crying for their fathers and mothers, and screaming from time to time. They were either hacked to death with swords, or stabbed with spears, and some were thrown alive into the burning cart. Burned to death...
The desperate Di people tried to surrender, but they still could not escape the fate of death. The surrounding soldiers were already red-eyed. No matter whether the Di people gave up resistance or not, as long as they encountered them, they would wave their swords and guns.
The battle was over quickly.
The attacking soldiers began to withdraw, leaving behind corpses, burning vehicles, and blood-stained land.
After a long, long time, the fleeing Di talents returned to the battlefield in fear, knelt down beside the corpses and howled. Some staggered around to identify their relatives among the corpses, some held the corpses and let the blood stain their robes red, and some let out angry roars and cut bloody incisions on their faces with knives. , vowing to make the attackers pay...

Yangping Pass.
"It's done...how do these juniors know our clever plan?" If he comes to violate the pass this time, he will definitely be defeated in front of the pass! ”Zhang Ze stood at Yang Ping Pass, looking at the cavalry coming from a distance with great satisfaction, and spoke loudly.
When Zhang Liao came, Zhang Ze, no matter how arrogant he was, needed to take a look and encourage him.
"If this army had come earlier, it might have made me very busy, but now..." Zhang Ze raised his head and laughed, seemingly full of confidence in victory, "Everyone outside the pass is a Di!" Today the Di people and the Hussar are at odds with each other, like water and fire! The Hussars are about to attack, but the Di people are determined to attack behind them! We just need to guard the pass, so we can sit back and watch it collapse! Just a little thief, so pathetic and ridiculous! 』
Zhang Ze went to Yangping Pass with the purpose of cheering up the defenders. Since we want to cheer up, of course we should belittle the horse as much as possible, raise ourselves up, put on a good posture when closing the door, pat this shoulder, ask whether the person is hot or cold, and then return to the government office in Guanzhong with a smile. , after entering the nave, he sat down and his face gradually darkened.
"I went out to trap some time ago... Are you sure you didn't falsely report your results?" 』
Zhang Ze frowned and asked.
The general of Yangping Pass nodded and said, "I have checked everything, and there is no false report." 』
Zhang Ze still frowned and stared at the general of Yang Ping Pass. After a while, he nodded, "I hope so..."
However, when the forwards of the hussars arrived, they did not look as embarrassed as if they had been attacked on the way. Their flags were ready and their armor was shining. Although Zhang Ze spoke boldly and seemed full of confidence, the situation in front of him was different from what he expected.
Zhang Ze thought that after his arrangement, soldiers were sent out to intercept and kill the Di tribe, and framed the Hussar troops. The Di people should be angry and attack the Hussar troops. How could these Hussar troops advance? It went so smoothly, and it seemed like we arrived at Sekiqian without any damage?
Shouldn't we shout and kill all the way, and then make it difficult for these hussars to adapt?
If it weren't for Zhang Ze who did see some soldiers who went to attack the Di tribe and saw some trophies, he would have immediately suspected that the general of Yangping Pass had falsely reported his achievements again and was lazy...
But why?
Zhang Ze sent personnel to discuss with King Di Ren very early on, but King Di Ren's attitude has always been ambiguous. I collected money and took things, but nothing was done. He smiled when he took money and collected things, and shook his head when he said he had to do something. This is very untrue.
So Zhang Ze simply took action himself and asked people from Yangpingguan to secretly dress up as cavalry and ambush and attack several Di tribes in an attempt to arouse the Di tribe's anger. But now it seems that the effect is not very good. So, can it be said that Di people are so cowardly?
Zhang Ze stood up, walked around the hall twice with his hands behind his back, and then stood still. He seemed to have caught something, but when he felt the bright eyes of General Yangpingguan on the side, he interrupted his train of thought and said, "Back off first." Get off! Get ready for arms! Don't be careless! 』
The Yangping Gatekeeper retreated in response, and Zhang Ze picked up his previous thoughts again and continued to think. He walked around the hall several times, stepping on the wooden boards in the festival hall, and then suddenly suddenly I realized that I seemed to have made a mistake in recruiting people, and it was probably an unforgivable mistake...

An unknown mountain top.
"Your Majesty..." A Di man came in front of Yang Wanwan and prostrated himself on the ground, "Commander Wang is here..."
Yang Wanwan was the king of Di people, and Wang Gui was also the king of Di people.
There are also seven Lei brothers who are also kings of Di people.
This "king" has very low gold content. Just like in the grassland and desert, in the beginning, the khans and everything were very valuable and noble. In the later stage, khans were everywhere, and the khans were as numerous as dogs.
The same is true for the King of Di Ren.
Just like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of the Han people, everyone they met was a king, two kings, and a mountain king.
Yang Wanwan saw Wang Gui at the foot of the mountain and waved.
Wang Gui nodded and seemed to explain something to the guards around him. Then he got off his horse and slowly walked up the mountain with a few people.
"Brother Yang!" Wang Gui chuckled, "Why are you so excited today?" 』
Yang Wanwan also smiled and said, "Come, Brother Wang, please come this way... the scenery here is nice..."
Wang Gui took a few steps forward and took a glance, "Why didn't I see it?" 』
"Over there..." Yang Wanwan pointed with his finger, "It's over there, have you seen it?" There are still some burnt marks over there... There are also some tombstones over there... One of my tribes, just over there, was attacked in the middle of the night. More than 200 people died, as well as more than 300 cattle and sheep. ...Vehicles, tents, and fodder were also burned..."
The Di people are a semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural people, so they follow the Han people in their burial customs. It's just that they don't have any place of origin like the Han people, and they want fallen leaves to return to their roots, and their souls to return to their homeland. Instead, they hide wherever they go, and they feel that there is no green mountain in the world that is not home.
Yang Wanwan spoke slowly, as if he was jumping out word by word.
Wang Gui frowned, looked around, moved his feet a little, and then said, "Brother Yang... what do you... mean?" 』
Yang Qianwan glanced sideways at Wang Gui, "I didn't say you did it. Why are you so nervous?" It was the Han people who did it... The three-color Han people, with their armor and flags..."
Wang Gui then calmed down a little, "Three-color Han people... what did you do before?" 』
"What do you mean what I did before?" Yang Wanwan frowned, "Brother Wang, what do you mean by this?" 』
"It doesn't mean anything," Wang Gui smiled, "It means...this, I heard it, that's what I'll say, Brother Yang, it doesn't mean anything else, it's just the three-color Han people, aren't they very particular about that?" What, does that make sense? 』
"Brother Wang, what do you mean... humph..." Yang Qianwan sneered twice, "If I didn't bleed, no wild beast would follow?" Did I take the initiative to provoke the Han people of three colors? 』
Wang Gui heyed twice, and then said: "I don't know about this...that's what I said..."
Yang Qianwan glanced at Wang Gui sideways, "I knew you would say that..."
Since the death of the previous King of Di Ren, the seven brothers including Yang Wanwan, Wang Gui, and the Lei family have been secretly competing for the position of the Di Ren King. It's like in a township, several big families are fighting openly and secretly just for their own family to be the township chief, but they don't realize how insignificant this township chief is to the entire country.
Therefore, when Wang Gui heard that Yang Wanwan's tribe had been attacked, he would certainly feel a bit indignant, but more often than not he would be secretly happy and gloating.
There was a slight embarrassment between the two people, but the atmosphere did not last long. After a while, the other party, one of the seven Lei brothers, Lei Yun, also came to this unknown hill and met with Yang Qian. Wan and Wang Gui met.
"It turns out...Brother Yang was already prepared..." Wang Gui said lukewarmly, "I thought he just invited me..."
Lei Yun laughed and looked very heroic, "What?" Brother Wang, don’t you welcome me? 』
"welcome! It's just that Brother Lei didn't come to my place as a guest. Instead, he came to Brother Yang..." Wang Gui said, "I wonder if he has taken a fancy to something good from Brother Yang? 』
"alright! ” Yang Wanwan stretched out a hand and interrupted Wang Gui and Lei Yun’s sarcastic smiles, “Let me start by saying that everyone has misunderstandings, and I know this too! But we still belong to the same ancestor! What do you say, we bleed the same blood and eat the same food, but we are still brothers! Is there any problem with this? 』
Wang Gui snorted and then said nothing.
Lei Yun clapped his hands and said, "Of course this is no problem!" 』
"Since we are brothers, we usually fight and fight," Yang Wanwan waved his arms, as if to strengthen the sense of weight of his words, "I know you two want to be the big boss... don't be in a hurry. Deny it, or I’ll take it seriously! 』
Wang Gui said "Hey", and then swallowed back what he originally wanted to say with a grunt.
Lei Yun looked at Yang Wanwan and said, "If you have anything to say, Brother Yang, just say it!" Don't go around in circles, I'm dizzy! 』
"How can one be considered the head of a family?" What kind of person is the king of Di people? Yang Wanwan extended his fist and gestured, "Of course having strength and bravery is one thing, but the most important thing is to ensure that all of us can live well!" I, Yang Wanwan, put my words here first! I must avenge my tribe! Otherwise I don't deserve to be the leader of my tribe! As for you two..."
Yang Wanwan looked around, "The Han people have a word... I remember what it is?" Let me think about it... my lips are cold and my teeth are cold! A piece of fur! Yes, that’s it! I invited two people here today for two things, but actually it’s the same thing! First, I want revenge, but if I go to take revenge, how can you count it as taking advantage? Second, if you don't even care about your brothers' hatred, how can anyone want you to be the big boss and the real King of Di Ren in the future? Um? 』
"alright! ” Yang Wanwan clapped his hands and said, “I’ve finished what I’ve said. Now you guys can talk.” Who comes first? Um? 』
Wang Gui took a sip of Yahuazi and remained silent for a while.
Lei Yun on the other side waved his hand and said: "Let me think about it, think about it..."

The place of Yangpingguan.
Zhang Liao sat on a high hill and watched his men build a forward camp not far away.
The soldiers moved quickly and skillfully.
Thanks to some outlandish inventions of the Hussars, building a camp is now much easier than before.
With the soil and cement that solidifies spontaneously after adding water, the amount of labor required to build a temporary camp is obviously reduced a lot. However, because the hardness and durability of the current soil and cement are far inferior to those of later generations, it is generally not a big problem to use it as a temporary camp wall or something, built with a wooden frame and iron wire, but if it is to be built Permanent fortifications are still most practical with stone strips and rammed earth.
The progress of science and technology cannot be achieved overnight, and the changes of the times cannot be completed instantly.
Zhang Liao came all the way not only to guard against Zhang's soldiers at Yangping Pass, but also against the Di people on the flanks...
But strangely, Zhang Liao found no trace of the Di people sneaking around, as if the Di people had retreated into the mountains.
From Tianshui to Xiabian, and then from Xiabian to Yangpingguan, although this route is not particularly difficult, the typical ravine area of the Loess Plateau also makes the road long and winding...
Zhang Liao thought that the Di people would ambush in this area, especially in the area from Xiabian to Yangpingguan, using the cover of the mountains. Therefore, Zhang Liao walked very cautiously and not very quickly, but to Zhang Liao's expectation, until Zhang Liao arrived not far from Yangping Pass, he was still not attacked by the Di people.
This is somewhat interesting...
When bidding farewell to Jia Xu and heading south, Jia Xu also gave Zhang Liao a little hint, saying something about the strategic layout of the hussar general Fei Qian, and also pointed out the key to the current chaos in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu, so Zhang Liao also It became clear that Fei Qian not only wanted to deal with the Zhang family in Hanzhong this time, but also wanted to cut off the surrounding Di people as well.
But what should I do if the rabbit doesn’t come out of the nest now?
Zhang Liao frowned, then took out a pen and paper, called for the guard, laid it on the guard's back, and wrote down some information in a quick and easy way, and asked for it to be sent to Longnan.
If the Di people came in waves, it would actually not be a big problem, because Zhang Liao knew that the Di people were scattered, just like the tribes of Xiqiang. Although they sometimes seemed to be crowded, they were actually not very organized. , but if...
Zhang Liao is a little worried that more troublesome problems may arise...
