I'm A Dou

The fourth uncle is really a good person. He was not dissatisfied with me in his practice of discarding his face. Instead, he went to Fufeng himself, thanked Jiang Wan, and apologized to the victim's family. In this way, all the civilians in Guanzhong were convinced and willing to be the commander.

They praised Jiang Wan for her strict law enforcement and Zhao Yun for her open-mindedness and enlightenment. Of course, I was indispensable in all the praises. The army was even more terrified - General Huwei, who had saved the young master twice, had committed such a crime, and what about others?

It was already mid-May, and Wei Yan's troops were progressing smoothly. He led 6,000 troops and marched 3,000 miles in one and a half months, and went to more than 20 cities in a row. His troops were as powerful as fire, and he was aimed at peace, which was indeed worthy of being famous generals. I sent Wei Yan three hundred-refining swords to show rewards.

However, in Qishan, the left general Ma Chao, whom I had high hopes, did not act much. This time, under my instruction, he won the hearts of the people, easily captured Ji County, and recovered Tianshui County, but he was unable to move under the Xiangwu City where he had stationed in his early years. Could it be that the failure and difficulties of these years have completely eliminated his spirit? Fortunately, his fame has not been eliminated. The two counties of Nan'an and Guangwei have all raised their troops to respond and obeyed Ma Chao's leadership, but this is not the power of war.

At this point, most of Yongzhou has already taken over me.

Yongzhou includes nine counties, Jingzhao, Fengyi, Fufeng (formerly belonging to Silizhou, which is commonly known as the Sanfu area), Xinping (In December 194 of the first year of Xingping, Fufeng was Xinping County), Guangwei, Anding, Tianshui, Nan'an, and Longxi. Now only Anding and Longxi are left.

If he continues, he will be Liangzhou, which is close to Yongzhou. There are seven counties, namely Jincheng, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, and Xihai (Xihai County was formerly Zhangye. In 195 of Emperor Xian Xingping, Wuwei Prefect Zhang Ya asked to establish him), Xiping, and his capital was located in Guzang, Wuwei. At this time, Cao Pi saw that Yongzhou was no longer possible, so he wanted to consolidate Liangzhou and enhance his confidants, and settled the prefect Zou Qi as the governor of Liangzhou. After this news, Xiping County Tuo Yan first proposed that several counties rebelled and resisted Zou Qi: In Zhangye County, Zhang Jin arrested the prefect Du Tong; in Jiuquan County, Huang Hua refused the prefect Xin Ji to take office in the county, and they all claimed that the prefect responded to Tuo Yan. In Wuwei County, although Yan Jun died, the Hu people of the three tribes rebelled again.

This large-scale rebellion in history finally happened on time!

Originally, when I chose the Northern Expedition, I often considered that if this rebellion did not happen, I could deal with the power of the two states of Yong and Liang, and at this time I finally felt relieved.

I said to Kong Ming: "Sir, I want to go to Liangzhou once."

Kong Ming said: "There is a change in Liangzhou, and the situation is unclear. It seems inappropriate for the young master to go through the adventures personally. The son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall, let alone the young master's body of a thousand gold?"

I said, "It is precisely because of the chaos in Liangzhou and the situation is unclear that I have to go there myself. The weight of others seems to be a little insufficient. When talking about the value with these rebellious heroes, I dare not take the initiative. And sir, you are guarding Chang'an, practicing government affairs internally, and preparing strong enemies externally, and your burden is much heavier than Zen."

Kong Ming thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement, but asked me to bring Huang Zhong, Guan Ping, and Jiang Wei with him.

He went west to Chang'an, passed Xianyang, passed Liquan, Qianxian, Yongshou, Binxian, entered Xinping County, and went straight to Quegu City. He walked along the way, and suddenly heard news from the front line that Wei Yan, who had won wildly, was defeated.

I was shocked. Wei Yan's unstoppable attack actually made me feel a little relaxed. What's more, with Wei Yan's elite, even if he met the central army of Cao Wei, he would have the power to fight. What's more, this time the attack was only the foreign army with few famous generals, so why did he lose such a situation?

He hurriedly asked the person who the other general was, and replied: "Su Ze, the prefect of Jincheng."

"What? How did the prefect of Jincheng run to Anding?" I was very surprised. Jincheng belonged to Liangzhou. Why did the prefect who ruled the people not only leave the county but also fight across states? "How many casualties in our army? Where is General Wei now?"

"Our army attacked Anding, and Anding's prefect Cui Liang pretended to surrender. He surrendered a lot along the way, and General Wei didn't care. When he entered the city, he accidentally found an ambush at the top of the city. Cui Liang's eyes dodged and his intentions were bad.

General Wei was alert and accidentally killed Cui Liang's head. When he was ordered to retreat, he was hit by two arrows in his chest. Fortunately, he was blocked by armor and was not seriously injured. The enemy was so powerful that our army did not dare to stay, so he had to retreat. Now General Wei is stationed in Jingchuan and is surrounded by less than two thousand soldiers. There are many injured. Because they are all infantrymen, they dare not leave the city and just wait for the young master to delay the troops."

Unexpectedly, in just one defeat, more than 2,000 people were lost. This was all achieved by the teacher's hard work. Although I read the grandson, there is the saying "Love it as a cunning child, respect it as a strict teacher, and use it as a stern master", it is really not something I can do if I don't cherish these soldiers like a stern master.

"Okay, you go down." After saying that, I called Huang Zhong and others to discuss strategies for advancing.

Huang Zhong was furious, his snow-white hair and hair were all raised: "What is Su Ze? He is so arrogant. Wait for me to go and behead his head and hand it over to the young master."

For such an old general, he has been famous for decades and has long been out of his mind. He is more inclined to wave his long sword to smash the obstacles in front of him. Perhaps this is the easiest and most troublesome, but I don’t want the generals under him to become butchers who only know how to kill people or wooden men who can only obey orders and cannot think. The smartest person in our army is of course Kong Ming, who thinks the most thoughtful, but if it is because of his reason, everyone will not think about it, the result will be even worse than not without him. So I said: "The old general has a good reputation, but killing one thousand enemies will damage himself by 800. Moreover, the enemy is a cavalry, and our army is an infantryman. It is difficult to advance and retreat. If you attack directly, you are afraid that it will not be effective."

Jiang Wei blinked and wanted to speak, but I signaled him not to speak, so he closed his mouth.

After waiting for a while, Guan Ping said, "Since you don't attack quickly, you can only use tricks. Cao's army has many cavalry, moves quickly, and has a familiar terrain. Compared with this, although our army has a large number and excellent training, it is difficult to gain an advantage on the battlefield. I think it is better to attack at night."

"Night attack? Brother, let me say more details." I looked at him with great interest to show my encouragement. Guan Ping had a sense of grandeur and calmness in his behavior. He was entrusted by Guan Yu's death and was extremely loyal to me. No matter what I said, he would execute it without hesitation. This made me feel a little sad when I sighed. Lu Meng was so powerful that I tried my best, but I finally couldn't save my second uncle's life.

"Once night comes, the enemy's cavalry's advantage will be difficult to exert. Our army can carry the benefits of bows and arrows to defeat the thieves in one fell swoop. This is one of them. In the dark night, the enemy is clear and we are secret, and we do not know the details of our army. If we attack internally and externally, the enemy will be in chaos. This is the second. It's a pity that we cannot dig trenches in a hurry. It is easy to defeat the enemy. It is difficult to achieve greater results."

Jiang Wei sneered after hearing this, "The trench is difficult, but it is not difficult to get there. His grandson said: "That is the trench pond. This time, I am sending troops here. I know I am going to come here. I have brought a lot of trench beams. I will give you all, so I will stab the enemy's horse slowly."

The caltrops were made by Mr. Kong Ming, also known as the stinger. When thrown on the ground, they always have a point upward and are extremely sharp. They are used secretly. It is really terrible. Jiang Wei is from Liangzhou. He knew that he would fight back to Liangzhou, so he had already made preparations. But why did he have such a sarcastic expression? I remember that Jiang Wei was not such a person. I ignored him for the first time and turned to Guan Ping and said, "But we are infantrymen, how can we easily appear beside the enemy without being discovered by the enemy?"

"Young master, we can act as if we are guilty and dare not attack. We only travel fifty miles a day and then set up camp. After a few days, the enemy will definitely miscalculate the time we arrived. We marched overnight, broke into the front of the formation, and launched an attack, and we will definitely win.

Listening to our analysis, veteran Huang Zhong frowned: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I think it's better to fight directly!"

I smiled proudly: "Old General, let's see how we win this account."

Regarding the two prefectures of Yongliang: During the reign of King Cheng of the Zhou Dynasty, according to the ancient system of Dayu's flood control, the world was divided into nine prefectures, among which "the west is called Yongzhou". Yongzhou was changed to Liangzhou during the Han Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms period, due to the constant wars in Liangzhou, the five counties in Hexi (referring to the five counties of Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, Wuwei, and Jincheng west of the Yellow River) were too far away, so they were divided from Liangzhou. The remaining counties in Liangzhou were renamed Yongzhou, and later they were collectively called Yongzhou with the Guanyou area.

The Liangzhou rebellion in the novel is indeed true, but it is not the beginning. As early as the 22nd year of Jian'an, Yan Jun, Zhangye Heluan, Jiuquan Huang Hua, and Xiping Tuo Yan launched a rebellion. They fought endlessly. They even sent a hostage to Cao Cao's place to ask Cao Cao for help, which made Cao Cao so angry that he couldn't say that he was the prime minister of the country, so he didn't want to rebel and asked the prime minister to help. But this time it was a big fuss, but unfortunately these people were all fools who were not scheming and liked to play tricks, so they easily settled Su Ze.
