Xun You looked at Meng Qian with resentment. His eyes were filled with shame and anger. He could feel the smile in Meng Qian's eyes. When he thought of what he had experienced last night, Xun You felt like he had nothing left to live for!
He did not expect Meng Qian to send two Qiang women to him. Xun You was very angry because of this matter, so he naturally ignored it!
Moreover, he was deeply influenced by Confucianism. Xun You believed that he was a gentleman and would not do such a thing as rape!
Of course, perhaps more importantly, he had mysophobia!
After all, in this era, the Han nationality was unprecedentedly strong. Those foreigners were all dirty in the eyes of the Han Dynasty gentlemen!
Xun You couldn't stand the fact that he had fused with two Qiang women. This was a blasphemy to the glory of the Xun Clan!
Only men like the Xi Liang Army, who lived with death all day long, would not care about this!
Therefore, even though Xun You had asked the two women to leave, he didn't expect to hear them complain. If they couldn't stay, they would be executed!
At this moment, Xun You's bad habit of being a gentleman and being righteous was once again triggered. Although he looked down on these outsiders, he could not watch helplessly as two weak women were killed in front of him!
He knew that he could not command the Western Liang army. He did not have enough prestige as an army supervisor, and many people looked down on him. This army only listened to Meng Qian's orders!
In his soft-heartedness, he let the two women stay in his tent for a night!
And he had been Liu Xiahui for the whole night, making him so listless!
Therefore, his gaze towards Meng Qian was filled with resentment."General Meng, this is not the behavior of a gentleman!”
He thought that Meng Qianxiang was using women to corrupt him and make him work together with him. However, he would tell Meng Qianxiang that it was impossible!
The will of a gentleman would not be tempted by beauty!
"Xun Lingjun, have you heard that a gentleman deceives others?”Meng Qian said indifferently. He didn't care about Xun You's complaints and directly rode forward!
The army advanced even faster!
Their target was Gao Ping, where the rebel army had stored a large amount of rations. Once Gao Ping was lost, the rebel army's morale would definitely be shaken!
The entire Western Expedition Army was enough to surround them!
The bluestone bank was located north of the Jing River in An Ding County!
Ever since the Western Expedition Army had moved out and lifted the siege of Chencang, they had launched a decisive battle with the rebel army. After several victories, the rebel army had been forced to the bluestone shore! Relying on the Jingshui River to fight against the Western Expedition Army!
At this point, the battle became even more difficult. The rebel army had nearly a hundred thousand soldiers, twice the number of the western expedition army!
The advantage in numbers made the Western Expedition Army's battle more and more difficult!
Fortunately, the composition of the rebel army was very complicated. There were originally Western Liang's official army, such as Ma Teng, as well as bandit troops, such as Bian Zhang and Han Sui. There were also Qiang people and even Xiongnu people!
Although the rebel army had gathered more than a dozen thousand soldiers, they were more like a motley crew. They were completely relying on the valiant Xi Liang people to fight against the Han army!
However, once their rations were burned and a Han army appeared behind them, it was uncertain how long they could last!
In the Han Army camp on the bluestone shore, General Huangfu Song sat at the head of the table, followed by former General Dong Zhuo. Both of them led 30,000 troops each!
However, under normal circumstances, Huangfu Song's opinion was the main one. He was also the commander of the Western Expedition Army!
Not only was his official position higher, but his prestige was also higher. The HuangFu family was a famous family of generals in the Great Han Dynasty and had great influence in the army!
Moreover, Huangfu Song was Dong Zhuo's old superior. When the Yellow Turban rebellion was quelled, Dong Zhuo was working for Huangfu Song!
However, Dong Zhuo could not be judged by common sense. The truth was that the relationship between the two of them was not very good!
It wasn't just a matter of choosing a side in the royal court. There was no room for two tigers on the same mountain. Dong Zhuo wanted to replace Huangfu Song, and Huangfu Song was trying his best to suppress Dong Zhuo!
The internal strife between the two forces was ongoing all the time. However, due to the current strong pressure from the rebel army, their conflict had not escalated to the surface!
Meng Qian's assault this time was also the result of a game between the two of them. Meng Qian was an important general under Dong Zhuo, and he controlled 10,000 elite troops!
Going deep behind the enemy and attacking the grain camp, if they were not careful, they would be doomed. It could be said to be filled with danger. Even if they succeeded, they would suffer heavy losses!
Huangfu Song was openly suppressing Dong Zhuo. After all, military orders could not be disobeyed. Huangfu Song was the commander of the Western Expedition Army!
"The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the flood season is coming. After a while, the water of the Jing River will rise sharply. At that time, it will be impossible for us to cross the river and wipe out the rebel army!”
Huangfu Song sat on the commander's seat with a worried expression. He looked at the map on the wall and his voice was a little low!
This time, the rebel army had gathered more than a hundred thousand troops and had fought all the way to Chencang. This had frightened the elders of the Imperial Court. They had issued orders one after another to get Huangfu Song to wipe out the rebel army as soon as possible!
Huangfu Song was also under a lot of pressure!
"Former General, it has been three days, and there is still no news of Meng Qian?”Huangfu Song asked in a low voice, his eyes staring straight at Dong Zhuo.
Although he wanted to use this opportunity to suppress Dong Zhuo, he still hoped that Meng Qian would succeed!
This was related to the success or failure of this western expedition, and whether the hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers could be wiped out!
Dong Zhuo was a middle-aged man with a sturdy build. Coupled with the fact that he had been exposed to the elements in the army all day, his face was a little dark!
Sitting there, he exuded an intimidating aura. Other than Huangfu Song, ordinary people did not dare to look him in the eye!
"Marshal, don't worry! It's only been three days. I believe that Meng Qian won't let the marshal down and will definitely succeed in attacking Gao Ping!”
Dong Zhuo stood up and clasped his hands at Huangfu Song. His voice was a little gloomy, but his eyes were calm. The muscles on his face twitched, making him look a little fierce!
Dong Zhuo was born into a powerful family in Western Liang and was on good terms with the Qiang people. He was full of the habits of a military ruffian, which was also something that Huangfu Song, a Confucian general, disliked!
If it weren't for the fact that the Xi Liang Army under Dong Zhuo's command was powerful and that Dong Zhuo had made many friends in the court, the position of Deputy Commander of the Western Expedition Army would never have fallen into his hands!
Huangfu Song would strongly oppose it because he could see that Dong Zhuo was not the kind of person who would behave himself!
"That's for the best. General Meng Qian's actions are related to the success or failure of my western expedition. I also believe that General Meng will not disappoint the Imperial Court!”Huangfu Song said calmly.
Immediately after, he changed his tone and said,"Recently, many people have complained to me that the soldiers of the Western Liang Army under the former general are very restless!”
"Military discipline is corrupt. There are actually people who rob the people of their wealth and bully women. Everywhere they pass by, the people are in dire straits and it's chaotic. What does the former general have to say about this?”
Huangfu Song was making things difficult for Dong Zhuo!
