In March 186 AD, although spring had begun, Liu Hong's plan to send He Jin to quell the rebellion outside the Great Wall came to nothing.

He Jin once again delayed the opportunity to send troops on the pretext of sending Yuan Shao and others to lead troops to Xuzhou and Yuzhou to pacify the moth thieves.

This is not a very clever excuse, but He Jin has no soldiers and horses, so he can't mobilize soldiers and horses from various states and counties again.

Now that the moth thieves are on the rise again, the military and horses of various states are also stretched thin.

In addition, the civil and military officials in the imperial court were worried about being implicated by He Jin, so they made collective suggestions, but Liu Hong had no choice but to give up.

However, Liu Hong understood the importance of military horses and planned to add a new army to consolidate the imperial power.

AD 186 4.

Zhang Wen became Sikong in Chang'an and was temporarily recalled to Luoyang.

Shortly after Zhang Wen returned to Luoyang, Han Sui launched a mutiny, killing Bian Zhang, Beigong Boyu and other leaders, and took sole control of the military.

Liangzhou is far away from Zhou Cheng's location.

However, Han Sui dared to mutiny at this time and revealed a message to the world.

Zhang Wen's record in Liangzhou was very bad.

The civil and military officials of the imperial court were dissatisfied with Zhang Wen's promotion to Sikong, and believed that Zhang Wen bribed the eunuchs.

In addition, the war in Liangzhou was not going well, and the civil and military officials of the imperial court, including He Jin, once again started to campaign, hoping to use Huangfu Song again.

However, Liu Hong ignored this and Zhang Wen continued to lead the army to suppress the rebellion.

Invisibly, it accelerated the conflict between the emperor, the civil and military officials of the court, and the scholar-bureaucrat class.

It also makes Luoyang’s situation even more tense.

……

Comparing merchants to fish swimming in the water, merchants can most clearly feel changes in water temperature and undercurrent fluctuations in the water.

Zhen Yi has decided to move her family back to Jizhou.

Although Han Fu was terrible at leading troops in battle, he was still good at appeasing the refugees.

Although Zhang Yan, who is entrenched at the foot of Taihang Mountain, often harasses Jizhou, Yecheng is always safer than Luoyang.

In May 1866, Zhen Yi and his family temporarily moved back to Yecheng.

Although the Zhen family is the richest man in Jizhou, it is not considered conspicuous in Luoyang City.

In addition, there are intrigues and intrigues in the court, and the civil and military officials and powerful officials in the court have no intention to take care of the Zhen family.

After Zhen Yi returned to Yecheng, he immediately visited Han Fu and sent a large amount of money and food.

Han Fu was naturally happy. He hosted a banquet for Zhen Yi and provided more convenience and care for Zhen's caravan in terms of trade.

Compared with the interior of the Central Plains dynasty, there were turbulent undercurrents in the court and chaos in various states and counties.

Above the grassland, there were dense clouds of war.

After a winter and spring rest.

Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen launched a war again to attack Qian Man.

Qian Man and Qian Man's supporters struggled to support themselves without any support.

Qian Man once again sent Wen Sheng to ask Zhou Cheng for help.

……

Along the way, Wen Sheng witnessed the military camps around the earth building. While he was shocked by Zhou Cheng's skills, he also gained a deeper understanding of Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng is a person who is not good at talking but good at doing things.

When Zhou Cheng saw Wen Sheng, he was still very enthusiastic and said,"Sir, long time no see."

Wen Sheng saluted, and then he was attracted by Dian Wei and Tian Chou.

Judging from their faces and appearance alone, these two people are no ordinary people.

Wen Sheng said:"Commander Qu has good talents and strong generals to help us, and great things can be expected."

Zhou Cheng smiled, introduced Tian Chou and Dian Wei to Wen Sheng, and said,"I already know the purpose of your visit, sir."

Wen Sheng did not Beat around the bush and tell the truth.

Wen Sheng said:"Qushuai, Qianman and Qianman's supporters are willing to become vassals of Qushuai like Rouran people, and send troops and horses to assist in battles in the future."

Becoming a vassal of a strong man is nothing on the grassland. It’s new and nothing shameful.

The Xianbei people were once vassals of the Huns, and the Dingling people were also vassals of the Huns.

It is better to rely on the strong than to be eliminated by the strong. As for national integrity?

It doesn’t seem to be popular on the grassland.

Wen Sheng continued:"As a sign of sincerity, Qianman is willing to marry his sister to Qu Shuai. At the same time, all the girls from the Fuluo Han tribe who were previously admitted will be dedicated to Qu Shuai. In addition, 5,000 young women between the ages of 12 and 16 will be given as gifts. , as well as 100,000 cattle, sheep, and war horses."

Zhao Chen, Zhao Yuan and others stroked their beards proudly.

Tian Chou also smiled disdainfully.

It can be heard that Qian Man and Qian Man's supporters have reached a critical moment of life and death.

If Zhou Cheng doesn't save Qian Man, Qian Man will die!

Zhou Cheng smiled and said,"Sir, please send someone back to tell Qian Man that I agree."

Wen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, but when he thought about it, he felt something was wrong.

Why send people back?

At this moment, Zhou Cheng said to Dian Wei:"Dian Wei, send Mr. Wei down to rest, and then send a woman to serve. Don't neglect it.""

"Here. Dian Wei walked up to Wen Sheng and said,"Sir, please." Wen Sheng smiled bitterly and said,"

Why should Commander Qu make things difficult for me? I am not a talented person."……"

"Sir please!"Dian Wei raised his voice!

"Hey, that's all, Wen Sheng is a thief."

Wen Sheng shook his head. He didn't expect that Zhou Cheng would do this.

……

Zhou Cheng once again sent troops to attack Xianbei.

In this battle, Zhou Cheng personally led the army, and Tian Chou set out with the army. At the same time, he mobilized another 20,000 cavalry, of which 10,000 were Rouran cavalry, and 30,000 infantry, for a total of 50,000 horses.

Of course, it is not so much a crusade against Xianbei as it is training troops.

In this expedition, except for the death camp, part of the Huben camp, the Shenwu camp and the Rouran cavalry, all were newly organized military horses.

Including Yongrui Camp, Huya Camp and Dangkou Camp.

The Yongrui Battalion is composed of sword and shield fighters. They are very courageous and dare to charge forward despite arrows and stone bullets. They currently number 7,000 people.

The Huya Battalion is composed of spearmen. Their arm strength is amazing. Even if they hold a five-meter spear, they can advance and retreat freely. There are currently 16,000 soldiers, divided into 16 thousand-man phalanxes.

The Dangkou Battalion mostly uses the Huanshou Sword. They are the fastest in the army and have the smallest number. Currently, they only have 2,000 people. However, they are different from the Yongrui Battalion and the Huya Battalion. Their mission is not to maintain the army's charge, but to maintain the charge. In the military battle, charge and kill the enemy.

Zhou Cheng was at the front of the team, holding the Potian.

Dian Wei followed, half a body behind, while Tian Chou was beside Zhou Cheng.

After the crusade against Wuhuan, Tian Chou had a deeper understanding of commanding troops to fight.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.

Tian Chou thought so.
