Wuwei County?
It is located on the bank of Xiutuze, one hundred and twenty miles away from Wubao and seventy-six miles away from Fengming Fort, in the far north of Wuwei County.
It is located between the two Great Walls of Qin and Han Dynasties, just south of Xiutuze.
Initially, Wuwei County was the territory of the Xiutu people, west of the Great Wall of Qin. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Huo Qubing, the general of the Han Dynasty, established Wuwei County in order to show his power in foreign lands. Later, he built the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty to protect Wuwei County. This Wuwei County was originally established
The purpose was to resist the raids of the Xiutu people in Xiutuze. Later, it gradually became a place where Qiang and Hu people lived together. After the Xiutu people were driven away, Xiutuze became a place where Qiang people lived.
The momentum is extremely strong...
However, due to the relationship between Ma Teng and Qiang and Hu, the relationship between Qiang and Han has gradually eased.
In order to show goodwill, Ma Teng gave up Wuwei County and no troops were stationed. The Qiang and Hu people could live in the county seat, and the Qiang and Han people lived here together.
In the battle of Fengmingtan, Tang Ti was defeated miserably and fell ill.
The Qiang and Hu suddenly fell into a gloomy cloud. Yue Ji, one of the four great commanders in the past, began to make plans. After Tang Ti's defeat, his prestige was greatly reduced. But now he is the only one of the four great commanders left, which seems to be enough.
precious.
In November of the eighth year of Jian'an, a massacre occurred among the Shaoge Qiang people.
In the past, the powerful commander Shao Ge died in the battle at Fengmingtan, which divided the Shao Ge Qiang into two factions. One faction advocated seeking peace from the Han Dynasty, while the other advocated revenge for Shao Ge. The quarrel between the two sides became more and more fierce.
, turned into an armed conflict. The two sides fought to the death, and even affected many Qiang and Hu tribes.
Yue Ji was ordered to quell the rebellion by order of Qiang King Tang Ti.
Within eleven days, all the tribesmen who suppressed the Shaoge Qiang rebels and advocated for peace were killed. Soon, Yueji did not withdraw his troops, but took advantage of the situation to annex the Shaoge Qiang, suddenly becoming the most powerful among the Qiang and Hus.
tribe.
Using ‘maximum’ may be a bit of an exaggeration!
At least Tang Ti's tribe still ranks first in terms of number of people.
However, Tang Ti was seriously ill and could not take care of things, so although the Tang Ti tribe had a large number of people, they could not unite into a group.
In this regard, after the Yueji annexed the Shaoge Qiang, although there were fewer people than the Tangti tribe, their combat effectiveness was not necessarily inferior to the Tangti tribe.
Cheriji lay on his knees in the county hall in Wuwei County, crying bitterly and loudly.
In the center of the hall, there is a man sitting. He is more than seven feet tall and looks powerful. His hair is formed into a circle of whip, and his beard is like an Asian steel needle, exuding a sense of power. But his
His complexion was not good, and he seemed to be a little depressed and depressed. Sitting in the hall, his expression was dull.
"Sir, what should we do?"
Cheriji couldn't hear any movement for a while and looked up.
The man smiled bitterly, "Cheliji, why did you retreat to Wuwei County with your people?"
"Since the disappearance of the Lord, King Qiang has been seriously ill and has ignored the affairs at all. Now all affairs are controlled by Yueji alone. From top to bottom in the king's tent, more than half of them are Yueji's people... Yueji had previously
He once wanted to recruit me, but I didn't agree. Originally, the guy wanted to use troops, but the woman who didn't want to burn weapons ran back to her hometown and asked for reinforcements. In addition, the Mozhe tribe was also dissatisfied with Yueji, so Yueji was not too bad.
Dare to act rashly against me...
With the adults absent, people in the tribe are in panic.
Many people were tempted to defect to Yue Ji. Seeing that the situation was not good, I gave up Muyuan and retreated to Wuwei County.
At least here, there is a city to rely on. Although the surrounding pasture is not particularly rich, it is enough to support us. Even if Yueji wants to annex us, we can use this city to deal with him, and then attack the Qiang King and Ma Teng asks for help."
The man heard it, closed his eyes, and remained silent for a long time.
This man turned out to be Yadan, one of the four great Qiang and Hu handsome men.
In the battle of Fengmingtan, Yadan was captured, but for some unknown reason, he appeared in Wuwei County.
After he pondered for a moment, he suddenly asked: "Cherry Ji, do you think Ma Teng will come forward if Yue Ji attacks us?"
"this……"
Yadan smiled bitterly, "He will never show up!"
"Sir, what do you mean..."
"I dare say that Yue Ji dared to annex so blatantly, and even regarded the king as nothing, without Ma Teng's support. Shao Geqiang... hmm, maybe it was Yue Ji who instigated it, and then found an excuse to send troops.
Cheriji, the king is old!
He can no longer control the hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu people in Xiliang. Why did Ma Teng befriend us before? It was because the Qiang and Hu were united. Now, the Qiang and Hu are falling apart, which is exactly what Ma Teng wants. I'm sure , Ma Teng has long wanted to annex us, but he just had no chance. After the battle at Fengmingtan, he found an opportunity."
Cheriji looked at Yadan in astonishment, and after a while he said softly: "Sir, General Ma doesn't know how to do it...he is our friend."
"friend?"
Yadan suddenly said angrily: "If he was a friend, why did he stand still and refuse to send troops to rescue when Fengmingtan was defeated? If he had attacked Hongze at that time, he would have at least given us a chance to breathe. However, he did not move and instead sent troops to rescue. He retreated thirty miles, and then retreated a hundred miles... Why didn't he step in to stop the Shaoge and Qiang people when they were in chaos and Yue Ji annexed them? He and the king have known each other for many years, aren't they friends? But he ignored them. "
Cheriji was immediately speechless.
Yadan said: "Now the people who are blocked by moths are holding Yue Ji back, but it will not last long.
After Yue Ji kills Shao Ge's woman, he will definitely deal with the Mo Zhe Zhe tribe. Once the Mo Zhe Zhe tribe is annexed, even if we retreat to Wuwei County, I am afraid we will not be Yue Ji's opponent... It will take at most two years. Even the king can't save it. At that time, Xiu Tuze was... Yue Ji covered the sky with one hand, and the entire Xiliang would surrender to Ma Teng. Cheriji, you are very smart, but you can't see the general trend. clear."
Cheriji was silent and looked thoughtful.
"I can come back alive this time, thanks to the kindness of the imperial court.
General Cao did not make things difficult for me, but he tried to understand me. Before he sent troops to Hongshuiji, he had a conversation with me. Yue Ji cannot be trusted, and Ma Teng cannot be trusted either. He made a bet with me. , saying that Yue Ji will definitely annex it. At that time, I didn’t really believe it...but the development of events later made me not believe him but the imperial court."
"My lord, when you come back this time, could it be that..."
Yadan nodded.
"General Cao said that if I don't come back, my property will be annexed by Yue Ji."
Cheriji pondered for a long time and said softly: "Sir, can the Han family be trusted?"
Yadan narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and whispered: "I can't guarantee others, but I believe General Cao..."
At this point, he suddenly laughed.
"Cheliji, you may imagine that when the dignified Hexi County Governor, Beizhong Lang General, talked to me, he actually used Qiang. It's just that his Qiang language is ugly, full of mistakes, and makes people laugh... But
That's it, I can feel even more General Cao's sincerity and his broad tolerance. At least among the Han family I know, there is no one who has studied Qiang specifically in order to communicate with us...
...Ma Teng and others, living here, it is not surprising that they can speak Qiang. But General Cao, a famous scholar in the Central Plains, actually found someone to learn every word from him. In the first month, he even invited me to eat, eat... Oh
, dumplings! The taste is really wonderful.
It is said that his wife made it herself...
Cheriji, have you ever heard of officials from the Han family asking their wives to cook food for the prisoners?"
Cheriji couldn't help but feel moved. After a while, he nodded and said, "If you put it this way, your Excellency, this General Cao is different."
Yadan laughed!
Having said that, if Cheriji doesn’t understand the meaning of this, he would really be a fool...
Your Excellency clearly wants to join the Han army!
In other words, he wanted to join the governor of Hexi County.
"Sir, although General Cao is good, he is the governor of Hexi County after all. And our roots are still in Xiliang... If we go to General Cao, do we have to abandon our roots? Besides, General Cao is a member of the imperial court after all.
, even if I am lenient to you, but to others...I heard that there are quite a lot of Han people in Hexi County."
What Cheridge thought about cannot be said to be wrong.
After all, there is a lot of hatred between the Qiang and Han people, and the differences are huge in terms of living habits and various aspects.
Conflicts between Qiang and Han often originate from details.
The imperial court's suppression of the Qiang people was also extremely harsh. The original Qiang riot was also due to this...
A hundred years ago, the Qiang people surrendered to the Han Dynasty and even served as the imperial pawns.
However, the imperial court conscripted the Qiang people endlessly and imposed heavy corvees and taxes, which made the Qiang people extremely angry. Finally, as a last resort, the Qiang people launched a riot, causing Hexi...including the entire Liangzhou to be in constant war for a hundred years.
.From the tenth year of Yongyuan to now, one hundred and five years have passed. This hatred is really great.
Yadan motioned for Cheriji to sit down, "Do you know about the Hexi County Chamber of Commerce?"
"I've heard of this..."
"Then do you know that at the trade fair organized by the Hexi County Chamber of Commerce in February, the Hexi Maonu Qiang used 800 white yaks and 600 high-quality military horses to exchange for 200 stones of coarse salt through the Hexi County Chamber of Commerce?
, and three thousand dragon birds?”
"ah?"
"The Kelihan tribe in Hubao was in conflict because their pastureland was reclaimed by the Han people.
As a result, General Cao judged that 20 acres of land had been reclaimed by the Han people, and paid a price of 200 guan as compensation to Currihan. The Han people who caused the conflict were even fined with twenty canes and three months in prison. Currihan was punished this time
At the trade fair, one thousand white yaks and two thousand army horses were exchanged for five hundred loads of coarse salt, thirty thousand arrows, and three thousand spears.
In the past, when we were trading with Han people, we were always worried about being cheated.
But now those tribes in Hexi are protected by the Chamber of Commerce under General Cao, and they can always achieve satisfactory results.
Hexi has a population of 280,000, of which Qianghu account for more than 60%. However, all the Qianghu who surrendered praised General Cao for his fairness, saying that he was a good friend of the Qianghu people and a good and trustworthy official... What do you think?
?”
After hearing this, Cherich said nothing more.
And Yadan continued: "As for Wuwei Hexi...ha, to put it bluntly, they are all under the rule of the imperial court.
General Cao said it very well. The whole world is not the land of the king, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers. This world belongs to the imperial court, and the current imperial court is controlled by General Cao's uncle, Cao Sikong. In my opinion,
Sooner or later, the world will change its surname to Cao. Wuwei belongs to General Cao, but sooner or later. Ma Teng wants to deal with General Cao? It’s not because I look down on him, he really doesn’t have the ability, let alone the courage. We are now defecting to General Cao
, what do the Han people say? It’s time to help! We will go there when General Cao rises, but it will be too late.”
Yadan was captured for three months, and his conversation and knowledge seemed to have made a big difference.
Even Cheriji thinks that his master is much more powerful than before...
Moreover, listening to what he said, it seemed that taking refuge in Hexi County was really the best choice. However, Cheriji also heard another meaning from Yadan's words: joining General Cao did not seem to require leaving home.
"Sir, what do you think we should do?"
"Immediately send someone to secretly contact the woman from Shao Ge and ask them to use any method to hold Yue Ji back."
"This is easy. The woman who burned Ge once sent someone to ask me for help, but I didn't dare to agree at the time, but I didn't refuse either."
"Cheridge, you did a great job.
After contacting the woman from Shao Ge, you must join the Moth Shield Tribe to participate. The more chaotic the Tu Ze is, the more benefits it will bring to us. When Wuwei County changes, that is the day when we rise, then you should
The first achievement."
Cheriji was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly...

In March of the ninth year of Jian'an, the war in Hedong became tense.
The high-ranking cadres seemed to be determined to win the battle in Hedong, and they invested all their troops at all costs. In just ten days, the high-ranking cadres supervised nearly 100,000 troops, crossed Tongtian Mountain, and garrisoned Puzi County. The strength of the troops in Hedong suddenly became apparent.
Weak. Cao Ren had no choice but to ask for help from the guards again, and transferred 20,000 horses from Guanzhong to form an army with the soldiers and horses from Hedong...
Cao Ren personally took command and supervised the battle in Linfen.
Zhonglang General Gan Ning stationed 10,000 troops in Yong'an County. On one side, he had to defend Fenshui, and at the same time, he also had to guard the front line of Huoda Mountain to prevent the Karasuma cavalry from Shangdang County from raiding. The battle situation in Hedong suddenly became tense...
After Cao Cao learned about it, he couldn't help but worry about Hedong. He wanted to mobilize Liangzhou troops to help the battle, but he didn't want the Hehuang Qiang and Hu to suddenly capture Heguan and approach Longxi County. At the same time, Han Sui sent troops to Jincheng County, occupied Muyuan, and ordered Liang to
The situation in the state suddenly became tense. We originally hoped that Wei Qian would continue to deploy troops and horses, but Han Sui's move changed the situation in Guan Guan.
Nanyang, Xinye.
In Nanyang in March, spring has begun and flowers are blooming.
The mountains of pink peach and apricot are really moving...
Liu Bei sat on the porch, his slender fingers moved flexibly, and in a short time, he knitted a straw sandal.
Flash forward, four years!
After the defeat of Donghai County, he fled to Jingzhou and lived under the shelter of others for four years.
In the past four years, life has been considered peaceful. However, this peaceful life is not what Liu Bei expected after all.
He hopes to be a strong warrior and eager to establish meritorious deeds.
Is it possible that the majestic uncle of the Han Dynasty will spend his whole life living under someone else's roof and passing his free time by knitting straw sandals?
"Lord!"
Just when Liu Bei was sighing, several people hurriedly walked outside.
The two leaders were Xun Chen and Zhuge Liang. As soon as they came in, they immediately raised their hands and said with a smile: "My lord, the opportunity has come!"
