"Where are you barbarians? Why do you serve Zhang Wei to resist the court? Who is the thief general who was killed by Dian Junhou just now?"

The soldier was not so strong, and after some torture, he still spoke obediently: "We are Banyan Man from Bajun. The one who was killed just now was He Chong, the nephew of our clan leader He Huang."

Li Su then realized that he had read the court's notice and knew that when Zhang Lu rose last year (the fifth year of Zhongping), there were seven surnames Ban Jianman who had rebelled against the Yellow Turban in Ba County south of Hanzhong.

The reason for rebellion is actually an old problem - the court recruited barbarians to serve in the army without paying them.

As early as Emperor Huan, the court had the habit of confiscating Banyan Man to fight the Qiang Rebellion, but the military pay was still given during the reign of Emperor Huan. From the second year of Zhongping of Emperor Ling, he almost cut off the military pay of the Wuhuan people and the Southern Xiongnu military pay. Emperor Ling also cut off the military pay of Banyan Man, but he still collected the white labor every year.

Therefore, the Banyan Man Uprising is the same as the Qiu Liju, and the Southern Xiongnu Uprising.

However, the Banyan Man Uprising did not affect the entire Ba County, because the Jiangzhou area in the south (Chongqing later) was quite stable and was a settlement area for Han people. The main areas of Banyan Man were Brazil, including Dangqu and Langzhong.

It was just because Zhang Lu was isolated from the road, and the court did not know how the Brazilian region developed later. Unexpectedly, Ban Jianman actually joined forces with Zhang Lu, and the two families opposed the Han Dynasty together.

He quickly told Dian Wei to be careful not to underestimate the enemy. Ban Jianman's strength in mountain warfare is definitely not inferior to Danyang soldiers. Dian Wei also said that he would learn from his lessons and restrain his fighting style in a while, and don't fight too hard.

After the establishment of the Shu Han regime in later generations, the "Wudang Feijun", the unit with the strongest fighting will in Shu, was composed of two parts of barbarian soldiers, one of which was Banyan Barbarians, and the other part was Wuxi Barbarians under Zhuge Liang and Meng Huo.

Wang Ping, the first commander of the Wudang Feijun, was born in Banyan Man, but his age was probably still a young man. He would have to become a captain twenty years later. Wang Ping was the grandson of the He family, the chief of the He family, the largest surname of Banyan Man.

Dian Wei just killed a barbarian general named He. The prisoner said that he was the nephew of the clan leader, so he should be one of Wang Ping's distant cousins.

With the Danyang soldiers organized by Dian Wei, Zhang Wei did not get any benefits even when he used the Banyan Man. His morale became increasingly depressed. After a few more battles, he finally had to turn to siege.

"Forget it, the top of the mountain is short of water, so let's forget that Han envoy is thirsty!" Zhang Wei made such a decision in helplessness.

The battle after more than a day later seemed boring and boring. At noon on the day, Zhang Wei suddenly received bad news.

Several horses and horses finally came from the north: "General is not good! The main force of the Han army attacked Yangping Pass. When we left, General Yang Ang and Yang were still struggling to defend. He asked us to report the message as soon as possible to ask the general to return to the aid!"

"What? Where did the Han army come from?" Zhang Wei fell down from the horse's back in shock.

The messenger: "I heard that the Han army forcibly attacked and arrived from Hechi within a day and two nights on the mountain road!"

Zhang Wei murmured in disbelief: "...This, how could those northerners walk the mountain road so quickly? This is impossible! Are they divine weapons coming from the sky!"

Zhang Wei was too shocked and did not realize the importance of blockade news, so bad news quickly spread throughout the army, and the entire army was shocked and uproared.

Li Su on the mountain saw that the army below the mountain was unsteady and knew that he had succeeded, so he quickly ordered Dian Wei to fight out with all his strength.

Dian Wei took advantage of the enemy's incompetence and led all the Danyang soldiers down the mountain like crazy tigers, slashing and slashing hundreds of Zhang Wei infantry who were guarding the mountain. Other soldiers also rolled and fled down the mountain, and the support point of the encirclement on the mountain was completely removed.

Zhang Wei suddenly felt that he was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

Should I die with Li Su, a dog thief, and give up a breath before death, or do my best to rescue Yangping Pass?

No matter how you look at it, it is more important to Yangping Pass.

If you divide the troops again, I am afraid that no one of them will be able to get it.

"Leave two thousand Banyan barbarians, use the camps built in the past two days to continue to strengthen the blockade and defend according to the camp. The hundreds of elite soldiers on the mountain are abnormal, and they cannot be defeated by field battles and attacking the mountain, but our army can still fight if we defend the camp and let the other party break through.

You don’t have to fight, as long as you die of thirst, they will be fine! In particular, five hundred archers were sent to aim at the mountain path that went down the mountain to get water to the Jialing River. Whoever dared to go down the mountain to catch water would shoot them all to death!”
