Cheliji was welcomed into the hall of the prefect's mansion, and after chatting with Xia Houyuan, Xu Shu and others for a while, they began to eat meat and drink. After they were full, Xu Shu arranged for Cheliji to stay in the prefect's mansion.
Just left.
After Xu Shu left, Cheriji sat on the edge of the bed, looking thoughtful.
Mi Dang saw this and said: "Your Majesty, today at the city gate, with the strength of our army, it is easy to massacre the Wei army in the city. Why doesn't your Majesty kill?"
Cheriji raised his eyelids and glanced at Midang, and said with a smile: "The Wei army is still strong. It would be too early to fall out with them at this time. Even if we capture this city, our army will suffer a lot. It will be very difficult for us."
It is said that the city is basically something external to the body, and being able to firmly control the entire Liangzhou in one's own hands is the key."
"Then what the king means is..."
"First, let the Wei army join forces to fight against the enemy, and use the power of the Huaxia army to weaken the Wei army. It is best if the Huaxia army can defeat the Wei army in one fell swoop. In this way, we can reap the benefits, and then use our own strength to defeat the Huaxia army and drive it away.
Leaving Liangzhou." When Cheriji said this, he was impassioned, and there were waves of fierceness in his eyes.
With eyes like a falcon and greed like a wolf, after holding back for so many years, it's time to break out.
"The king is wise!" Mi Dang praised.
"Go and notify the other marshals and tell them not to have any more friction with Wei Jun. What happened this morning must have had an impact on Wei Jun's mind. In addition, urge the iron chariot soldiers to speed up their march. We won't be here in three days."
, ask and behead them all!" Cheriji said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Mi Dang was superb in martial arts, but when he met Cheriji, he still felt that there were some shortcomings. Back then, he competed with Cheriji for the position of Zhongcun Qiang King, but now he has completely surrendered to Cheriji. This man
, although he does not have pure Qiang blood, he is an out-and-out tyrant. At least, this is what Mi Dang thinks.

Zhang Xiu was on the march when he saw a scout coming in front and asked, "How is the situation ahead?"
"There were 200,000 Qiang people. Chen soldiers set up five large camps outside Didao City. Inside each large camp, they set up 20 small camps with 2,000 men in each small camp to surround Didao City.
The water is blocked, and it completely plays the role of defending Didao City." The scout reported.
Zhang Xiu frowned, gathered Zhang Ji, Qu Yan, Jiang Shi, He Luan, and Guan Qiuxing around him, and said: "The situation has changed. The Qiang army of 200,000 people is entrenched in Didao to defend Longxi.
, I’m just afraid of the original plan
The plan needs to be changed. Jiang Shi, please go to Hanyang County in person to see General Shenweitian and tell him that the plan has changed. I will hide in the Wei camp temporarily and wait until the critical moment before taking action.
.”
"promise!"
"Everyone else, follow me and go to Didao together."
"promise!"
…………
Yuzhong City.
"Information to the general, King Cheliji of the Western Qiang, that two hundred thousand troops have arrived at Didao City and joined forces with the Wei army. In addition, there are tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers slowly moving behind." The scout stepped into the county government office.
, so he reported it to Taishi Ci.
"Very good, have you ever found out where the Wei army is stationing grain?" Tai Shici asked.
"It hasn't been discovered yet, but it seems to be in Didao."
Taishi Ci sighed and said: "It seems that we can't rob food..."
"Reporting to the general, the right chariot general sent a message saying that he has arrived in Jicheng and is ready to encircle Longxi at any time."
"Ma Chao is back, what about Sima Yi?"
"On the way back, it seems that we have arrived in Chencang."
"I understand, you all go down and wait and see what happens. The entire army remains stationary." Tai Shici waved his hand.
As soon as the two scouts went out, another scout came in and immediately reported: "To the general, the former general has pacified the three counties of Jiuquan, Zhangye and Dunhuang. The troops are now stationed at Yumen Pass to prevent interference from various countries in the Western Regions and to ensure peace and quiet."
Waiting for the new instructions from the General."
"Wei Wenchang is really good. He ordered Wei Yan to be the protector of the Western Regions to pacify the countries in the Western Regions. He stationed troops in Dunhuang. When the entire Liangzhou was captured, he would write a report of victory and report it to the emperor."
"promise!"
After all the scouts had gone out, Taishi Ci turned back to his room and told his wife Tian Xin all the news of the past few days.
After Tian Xin heard this, he analyzed it carefully: "Husband, the Qiang people are coming fiercely, and I am afraid that there will be another change in Liangzhou. The top priority is to seize the dangerous ground before the Qiang people take action, and suppress the Wei army and Qiang soldiers."
"What Madam said makes sense, but how should our army seize the dangerous ground now?"
Tian Xin opened the map and said to Tai Shici: "My husband, please take a look. We can order General Pang to send troops to capture Wuhan to cut off the connection between Longxi and the Qiang tribe. We can order General Ma and General Wang to send troops from Hanyang to occupy Wushu Cave Mountain and Baishi respectively."
Mountain, my husband sent troops from Yuzhong to occupy the city of Daxia. These places are all dangerous places.
The distance is not too far. After occupying it, we can further force the Wei army and the Qiang people and contain them in Longxi County, so as not to expand the battlefield and save our soldiers from running around. As long as we occupy these four places,
The Wei army and the Qiang people will definitely divide their forces to attack, and as long as they hold on for more than a month, they can defeat the enemy army."
"Draw down the enemy army?" Taishi Ci thought for a while and said with a smile: "I understand, there are many Qiang people. Pound cut off the connection between Longxi and the Qiang tribe, making it impossible to transport grain and grass, which is equivalent to cutting off the enemy army.
There is not much food in Didao City. With more than 200,000 people eating and drinking together, it will definitely take less than a month. Madam, this is a clever plan."
"Before Sima Jianjun arrives, our army can only take a defensive position. I am a woman and my husband obeys my orders. I am already content. But for the sake of safety, I still take a defensive position and wait for work. I divide my troops to resist the enemy. This way
Even if the enemy comes to attack, they can still respond to each other."
"I understand, madam, I have a clever plan. I will send Pang De, Ma Chao, and Wang Shuang to send troops together. However, I can't take madam with me to Daxia City. Madam just stays here. If there is any news, I will ask the scouts to report.
"
"Well, husband, go ahead. Yuzhong City is located at the junction of three counties. If the enemy comes to attack, I will devise a plan to defend the city. Please don't worry, husband."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, madam. After I leave, madam will be the lord of this city."
"Isn't this... inappropriate?"
"What's wrong? Madam's clever plan has been witnessed by everyone. Now that Hou Cheng and Song Xian are not here, there are no generals in the city. They can only entrust the power to Madam. They only hold fast to the city. Even if the Qiang people come to attack the city with 200,000 people, they will still be able to attack the city."
Madam, with her wisdom, she will definitely have a way to defeat the enemy."
"Husband, I'm not that good anymore..."
"In my heart, Madam is the best."
After the couple had decided on their plan, Taishi Ci sent someone to convey the order. He gathered all the officers in his tent together, entrusted the city to Tian Xin, and ordered all his officers and soldiers to obey Tian Xin's orders. None of the officers had any objections, because
They were all members of Taishi Ci's old department, and they were loyal to Taishi Ci and never complained.
On the same day, Taishi Ci took half of his troops and went south to Longxi to attack Daxia City in Longxi County.
…………
At the same time, a force of 1,000 people was secretly walking upstream along the Han River. The Han River was frozen for three feet, and the ice was very solid. There were high mountains on both sides of the Han River.
The mountainous terrain is extremely dangerous. If you are marching on a regular basis, even taking a boat upstream will be quite difficult due to the strong current.
However, at this time, the ice was three feet deep, and the ice was thick enough for horses to gallop, which brought great convenience to this 1,000-man troop. They did not have to climb over the mountains or swim upstream. However, for the sake of caution,
This group of people rested during the day and marched at night.
The straight-line distance from Xicheng to Hanzhong was not far, but the Han River was winding like a coiled snake, which took up a lot of time for this army.
On a steep mountain wall on both sides of the Han River, the army was resting. Not long after, Bian Xi rushed over from outside the mountain wall. He looked around and saw no one, so he opened a cave and drilled directly.
When you go in, the fire is glowing inside and it's extremely warm.
As soon as Bian Xi entered the cave, he came to Gao Fei's side, clasped his fists and said, "I would like to report to your Majesty, I have found out that the forty miles ahead is Chenggu City of Hanzhong County, which is still a hundred miles away from Hanzhong County.
After arriving in Chenggu, you can turn to Mianshui and walk all the way through Mianshui. It is expected to reach Nanzheng in two days."
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Now that we have finished eating all the food we brought, we can no longer hold on for two days. Can you see if you can go to Chenggu City ahead to get some food?" Gao Fei said.
Bian Xi chuckled and said, "This is not a problem. After I heard that there are bandits in this area, the emperor assigned me a hundred people, and I will bring back some food before dark tonight."
"Let's go together. If you run back and forth again, I'm afraid it will be too tiring. Let's go to Chenggu together. Then you can go to the city to get some food." Gao Fei said.
"I understand."
"Zilong, gather the whole army and set off."
Zhao Yun, who had been silent beside Gao Fei, said after hearing this: "No!"
Afterwards, Zhao Yun summoned the entire army, and a thousand Feiyu Army soldiers were all ready. They walked out of the mountain wall together and continued walking along the Han River.
By noon, the group of people arrived outside Chenggu City, but it took a lot of effort to climb up. After all, Chenggu City was built on a mountain ridge, surrounded by mountains and dangers. But for Bian Xi, these did not matter.
Next words.
Bian Xi used his special skills and climbed up the cliff first, then dropped the rope to meet the soldiers below. These Feiyu soldiers were carefully selected from various units of the Chinese army, so they climbed the rock very quickly.
, a hundred soldiers followed Bian Xi away, while Gao Fei, Zhao Yun and 800 of their subordinates were waiting there.
Bian Xi and a hundred Feiyu Army officers pretended to be bandits. The city of Chenggu County was dilapidated and there were few guards in the city. When they saw the bandits coming, they did not resist them and ran away.
When Bian Xi saw this, he was overjoyed, thinking that the Wei army was also a bunch of pussies, so he immediately sent people into the city to carry grain and grass to the treasury. After entering the treasury, everyone was surprised to find that the treasury was empty and there was nothing.
At this moment, there were sounds of footsteps outside. Bian Xi looked over and saw a young general riding a horse and hundreds of sergeants surrounding the treasury.
