As the sun set in the west, the yellow sand between heaven and earth was dyed red. Looking from Gaoping City, the setting sun was so magnificent! It made people feel the power of heaven and earth!
However, there was an inexplicable sense of sadness. This scene seemed to foretell the rebel army in Gaoping City!
When the sun set, the noise in the city finally stopped. Most of the rebel army's rations were stored here!
Over 100,000 rebel soldiers were fighting the Han army on the Green Rock Bank, and the amount of rations they had to consume every day was an astronomical figure. It was all supported by Gao Ping City!
Rebellion one year, many years, since the rebel army, the whole of Xiliang army, the three auxiliary army, the whole of grain and fodder, the whole of the army, the whole of Xiliang army, the whole of the army, the whole of
This was the lifeline of the rebel army!
Therefore, they were also heavily guarded. The general guarding them was the younger brother of the rebel leader, Wang Bang!
He looked like he was in his thirties, just like his brother. From his appearance, it could be seen that he was of mixed Han and Qiang blood. Although he did not have the ability of his brother, he was definitely not a mediocre person!
Thus, he was sent by the kingdom to guard Gaoping. His subordinates were also the five thousand soldiers that his brothers trusted the most!
However, the internal conflicts of the rebel army were countless times worse than the Han army. The Han army was still suppressed by a famous general like Huangfu Song. Dong Zhuo was not a muddle-headed person!
Therefore, the conflicts of the Han army would not be expressed in the war. However, the rebel army was different. The composition was very complicated!
The kingdom was only a leader elected by them. The only ones who could truly command were the troops under his command!
Bian Zhang, Han Sui, Ma Teng, and the others all had their own thoughts. It was impossible for them to truly believe in the kingdom!
They would definitely not be willing to let the kingdom's people guard such an important place like the grain camp!
Therefore, in Gaoping City, other than the 5,000 soldiers of the Wang Bang, there were also other troops. Han Sui and the others had sent their trusted aides to guard the city!
There were more than 10,000 people from all walks of life!
They had to be responsible for the logistics of the frontlines, so Gaoping City only quieted down after sunset!
On top of the city wall, Wang Bang ordered the city gates to be closed after watching the last grain truck leave!
Beside him was the deputy general of Gaoping City, Lin Jie. He was Bian Zhang's subordinate and was used to check and balance Wang Bang!
Although the two of them seemed harmonious on the surface, they also had their own thoughts!
"Yesterday, Ma Teng just said that we gave him 200 dan less grain, and today we gave him 200 dan less again. Is this appropriate for us?”
Lin Jie stood on the city wall and said calmly. Gao Ping was not very tall, only about 20 feet tall. Half of his body was exposed as he looked at the horizon!
Beside him, Wang Bang shook his head and smiled faintly. With a mocking expression, he said,"Ma Teng has spoken? Do I have to listen to him?"
Wang Bang snorted in disdain. There were a large number of people mixed within the rebel army, with all kinds of backgrounds. The most powerful ones were undoubtedly the Kingdom, Bian Zhang, and Han Sui. Next was Ma Teng!
Wang Bang only cared about his brother's men. Usually, he could give Ma Teng some face, but now that the situation was a little complicated, he couldn't care less!
"This time, the Han army has come with great momentum. They have been confronting us on the bluestone shore for more than a month. The commander of the Han army is also that old thing Huangfu Song.”
"We might have to continue retreating to Western Liang, and we don't have much military rations left. At this time, we should save as much as we can. We can only let Ma Teng and the others suffer!”
Wang Bang's words were considered polite. In fact, the situation of the rebel army was even worse!
Back then, the rebellion in Western Liang was so magnificent that they had taken over the entire Western Liang. The army had attacked the three auxiliary areas and surrounded Chencang. They were almost at Chang 'an!
At that time, they were very proud, but it was also at that time that their good days came to an end!
They had frightened the old masters of the imperial court, so Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo were sent over. One of them was a famous general at the end of the Han Dynasty, the greatest contributor to quelling the Yellow Turban rebellion!
The other was a powerful figure in Western Liang, who had the powerful Western Liang Army in his hands!
The rebel army was defeated in the battle of Chencang, so they could only retreat from the three auxiliary areas and confront the Han army on the bluestone bank by relying on the terrain of the Wei River!
The greatest danger of the rebel army still came from within! The composition of the rebel army was very complicated. There were government troops, bandit troops, Qiang people, and Xiongnu people!
It was fine to fight with the wind, but once the situation was unfavorable, the contradiction between them would be highlighted!
It had already reached an extremely intense level. If they failed again, the hundreds of thousands of rebel soldiers would probably fall apart in an instant!
Therefore, under the situation of tight military rations, Wang Bang naturally gave priority to his own army. As for Ma Teng's protest? He did not care at all!
On the other side, Lin Jie smiled faintly and did not say anything else!
The Kingdom Brothers were on the same side, and Bian Zhang and Han Sui were on the same side. They were the two largest forces within the rebel army!
Anyway, Bian Zhang and Han Sui's troops were not short of food, and Lin Jie did not care about anything else. The reason why he asked this was because he wanted to shirk responsibility!
In any case, he had fulfilled his obligation and told Wang Bang about this matter. He was the one who wanted to give 200 dan less of the military rations to Ma Teng!
He was the commander of Gaoping City. Other than matters, he was naturally the one who would handle them!
Just like that, the two of them chatted and laughed with their own thoughts. However, at this moment, a low muffled sound rang out from the horizon!
It was as if black clouds were pressing down on the city. The sound of thunder and lightning rumbled, and the ground trembled. It was terrifying!
When Wang Bang and Lin Jie heard this voice, their smiling faces instantly stiffened. They looked at each other in horror and instantly looked into the distance!
They had grown up in the wild land of Western Liang and had been with cattle and horses since they were young. Naturally, they could tell that this was not the sound of thunder at all!
It was the sound of cavalry galloping, and only a large number of cavalry could cause such a roar!
"What happened? Why would a large army appear here? Could it be that the Han Army is here?" Lin Jie said in a deep voice. His expression was very ugly!
"Impossible! There was no news of failure from Bluestone Shore. The Han army could not have moved so quickly!”Wang Bang immediately retorted!
This place was far from the bluestone shore battlefield, and the cavalry only needed half a day to reach. If the bluestone shore really failed, they would definitely be able to get the news in advance!
However, this cavalry unit that had appeared out of nowhere made them feel even more shocked!
The two of them quickly ordered everyone to go up the city wall and defend! Gaoping City had a large amount of grain stored by the rebel army. It was their lifeline and could not be lost!
At this moment, they finally saw the enemy's figure on the distant horizon. It was a dark patch, and they could not see the end of it in the wilderness of Western Liang!
The sound of ten thousand horses rumbling caused the earth to tremble. The warhorses galloped wildly, and yellow sand filled the air. Their powerful aura made people tremble!
This huge cavalry legion maintained a certain formation at all times and was rapidly approaching Gaoping City!
At this moment, the rebel soldiers on the city wall could feel a powerful aura rushing towards them, oppressing them until they could not breathe!
Wang Bang's hand pressed tightly against the city wall. His expression was very ugly. Because he used too much force, the veins on his neck were trembling!
In the middle of the huge cavalry army, a huge flag was flying in the wind. The word 'Han' on it was so eye-catching!
