Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 1479 Liangzhou?Western Regions?
As for the northern grasslands, Li Xiang has never let go of his concern for them. Apart from the few forces on the grasslands, Li Xiang was the first person to receive news of the drastic changes in the grassland situation.

"Nurhachi fell, and Huang Taiji took over! Unexpectedly, the three heroes of the grassland have ceased fighting!" Li Xiang said with a chuckle.

In ancient times, there were really few emperors who died because of going to the battlefield, and Nurhachi was one of the few.

Zhang Liang, Guan Zhong, Wang Meng, Liu Bowen and the others were also deeply saddened when they heard the news.

In today's world, there are only a few people who dare to claim the title of emperor. Compared with Yuan Shu's joke, the grasslands are following the trend of the times. demeanor.

However, none of these heroic lords disappeared today.

However, Zhang Liang, Guan Zhong, Wang Meng, Liu Bowen and others were not happy about this incident.This matter is not necessarily a good thing!Even, this might be a bad thing!
Although Nurhachi can be regarded as a hero, among the three on the grassland, he is definitely the easiest one to deal with.

After becoming the emperor, there are not many people who dare to risk a rolling log and fly arrows, and lead the crowd forward with a sword.Not counting Xiang Yu and Chi You, these two people have not yet become emperors, no matter in the previous life or in this life, they have not yet become emperors, let alone the former is already cool!

Going into battle in person can certainly boost morale, but this is a method that can only be used when the situation is desperate!Do it yourself before reaching the desperate situation, there are a few people who have that kind of good luck, they can go on forever!Otherwise, there would be no such thing as walking by the river all the time in this world without getting your shoes wet!
Because, although an enemy like Nurhachi can be regarded as a great enemy, if he seizes the opportunity to target the opponent's weakness, there may be a chance to take the opponent away.

As for Huang Taiji, the son of Nurhachi, everyone also somewhat understands it.This is likely to be a more difficult character than Nurhachi, and his civil and military talents are all at the top level.Nurhachi, among the princes in the world today, can definitely be in the forefront in terms of the level of sons!
Moreover, the most important thing is that Huang Taiji does not have the habit of going to battle in person like Nurhachi.As the one with the most outstanding military exploits among Nurhachi's several sons, Nurhachi's figure was naturally indispensable in all previous battles.

However, Huang Taiji, like most famous generals in this world, basically sits in the army to grasp the overall situation, and rarely fights personally.

"My lord, although Huang Taiji is in power, but with Dorgon present, there must be hidden dangers in the Manchu Qing Dynasty! At critical moments, we can use it!" Guan Zhong pointedly said.

Guan Zhong is not Huang Taiji, it is impossible to contact his brothers face to face, and Guan Zhong can only understand the internal affairs of the Manchu Qing based on the information on paper.

Just based on the information on paper, although Guan Zhong didn't discover Xuan Ye, he was keenly aware of the problems that Dorgon might have caused to the Qing Dynasty.As long as Dorgon is around, Man Qing will have weaknesses exposed before their eyes.

Therefore, Guan Zhong's implication is that Dorgon can be given some help appropriately. Dorgon is here, and one day in the future, if they want to deal with the Qing Dynasty, this may become their trump card.

Moreover, Dorgon is one of the top generals in the Qing Dynasty. If the battle between Huang Taiji and Dorgon can be provoked when necessary, the impact on the Qing Dynasty will only be greater.

"Besides, there is something wrong with Temujin's move!" Guan Zhong continued.

"Temujin's troops are moving westward! Could it be that he has some ideas about our army?" Li Xiang asked with some doubts.

There are still many areas where Temujin and Li Xiang are close to each other. Liangzhou, Hezhou, and Bingzhou can all be used as breakthrough points for Temujin's tentacles against Li Xiang.Compared with these three places, Liangzhou is indeed more likely.

For one thing, Liangzhou does not have the mountains and barriers of Hezhou and Bingzhou, so it is relatively easier to break through.Secondly, it is the importance of Liangzhou's geographical location.

Although Liangzhou looks poor among all the Han states, it does not mean that its geographical location is unimportant.On the contrary, if the Hu people in the north are powerful, the position of Liangzhou will become more and more important.

"The key point of the world, the national vassal guard", Fu Xie's eight short words in the Eastern Han Dynasty expressed the important strategic position of Liangzhou in the Han Dynasty.

The controversy over whether to abandon Liangzhou appeared several times during the Han Dynasty, but the court finally made the correct decision to stick to Liangzhou.

This is because Liangzhou in the Han Dynasty was an important passage of the Silk Road, a strategic place to "isolate the Qiang and Hu", a bridgehead fortress for operating the Western Regions, a natural barrier to protect Chang'an, and a place of prosperity and prosperity. It is not only an important post station for exchanges between China and the West, but also a training base for elite soldiers and generals.

"Book of the Later Han Dynasty Xiqiang Biography" records: "Emperor Wu conquered the four barbarians and opened up a wide range of territory. ; pass Yumen, cut off the Qiang Hu, so that the north and the south cannot communicate."

"Book of the Later Han Biography of the Western Regions" records, "The four counties in the west of Hexi were then opened to isolate the Southern Qiang, to collect 36 countries, and to cut off the right arm of the Huns."

"Book of the Later Han Dynasty Ren Yanzhuan" records: "For four years, I have been working as the prefect of Wuwei... The north of the county is the Xiongnu, and the south is inoculated with the Qiang. From this, the important task of "isolation" undertaken by Liangzhou during the Han Dynasty was mentioned.

Liangzhou was in a crucial position for every "isolation" strategy implemented by the Han Dynasty in the northwest.Liangzhou has become an important place to implement the national strategy of "isolation of Qiang and Hu".

Su Dingfang once attacked the Qiang people, and he was even more active in the Qiang cavalry when he attacked Jingbei.However, this does not mean that Li Xiang has recovered the Qiang people. This is a problem that has plagued the Eastern Han court for 200 years and has not been resolved. How could it be so easy for Li Xiang to solve it in a few years!

What Su Dingfang had conquered at the beginning was only a part of it, mainly the Eastern Qiang, while the problem of the Western Qiang was far from being resolved.If we continue to fight, we will soon reach those places in Tibet and Xinjiang today. Due to the terrain and climate problems, it was only enough at the beginning.

If something happened in Liangzhou, Temujin would be able to communicate with the Xiqiang people in Lingsichuan, Tibet, Xinjiang and other places. In this way, the threat on this frontier would double.

Moreover, if something happens in Liangzhou, the Western Regions will also be cut off from the Jin army, and the adverse impact on the Jin army will be too great.

Moreover, Wang Fu, a political theorist of the Eastern Han Dynasty, also analyzed in "Theory of Qianfu Rescue the Border": "For the reason that Liangzhou is lost, the three assistants will be the border; if the three assistants enter, the Hongnong will be the border; Luoyang is on the side."

Liangzhou is the gateway and barrier of Chang'an, Kyoto, and is of great significance geographically.If there is a loss in Liangzhou, then Guanzhong will be unstable.

If Temujin really wanted to fight with the Jin army, standing in Temujin's position and attacking Liangzhou was the most effective method Li Xiang could think of.

"No, it shouldn't be Liangzhou!" Guan Zhong retorted at this time.
