I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 841, Meeting

When the south of Tianzhu was in full swing, no, it should be the time when Li Gang and the others took over the sky and the sky was three feet high.On the battlefield of the Western Regions, Xu Weicai led 5 cadres to the city of Wuji in the Western Regions, and they had a round with Zhang Xiu!

And Zhang Xiu reported the situation on the battlefield to Xu Wei, especially angrily said: "Liu Bei was called a hero in vain. He actually resisted the ruling government for the sake of strengthening the wall and clearing the country, and captured all the local people in the Western Regions. At least hundreds of thousands of people were arrested. Liu Bei took it away, and 10,000+ people fled to Wuji City, now they can only wait for our help!"

No wonder Zhang Xiu is so annoyed. He is the number one official in the Western Regions. He is responsible for everything that happens in the Western Regions. It took him several years to take advantage of the battle between Guishuang and Liu Bei. With a population of one million, the population of the Western Regions has exceeded 300 million, but before he can show his ambitions, a small half of the Western Regions has been robbed by Liu Bei, and it will be difficult to recover within a few decades!Because this time Liu Bei is really killing the grass!

Xu Wei was surprised when he heard the news. He wouldn't be surprised if Cao Cao did such a thing.

But Liu Bei did not behave like this in history. He is one of the people with the best bottom line among the Han princes, but now he also started to plunder places?
Zhang Yun, who was following Xu Wei, asked, "What's the current situation on the battlefield? Could it be that Liu Bei's 10,000+ army is still stranded in Dawan City?"

Zhang He has been in the Western Regions for 20 years and is familiar with every plant and tree in the Western Regions. Xu Wei once again asked Zhang He to come out of the mountain to be his staff in this battle.

And he just understands the situation in the Western Regions, and understands that it is impossible to maintain an army of 10,000+ in the Western Regions for a long time, because even the most mobile nomads have so many soldiers to eat the grass dry!Liu Bei really has so many troops and can only wreak havoc in the Western Regions like locusts, instead of being as quiet as it is now!

Zhang Xiudao: "After Liu Bei conquered Dawan City and Wusun Kingdom, he stopped attacking and began to build defense lines layer by layer. Now there are 3 troops stationed in Dawan City and 3 troops in the direction of Wusun. , the rest of the army is in the north of Guishuang, and they are all stationed in dangerous places on the hillside!"

In fact, when Dagan's 5 reinforcements were about to arrive here, Liu Bei began to divide his troops continuously, leading his soldiers to station in dangerous places. He made it clear that he wanted to defend and fight, and used the long-term logistics line of the Western Regions to consume the Dagan army.

And he can't make a mistake in his calculations. The northernmost Jidu army of the Dagan Army has marched more than 2 miles to this place (although half of this is for railways).This is almost farther than the distance traveled by a person in a lifetime.

Even the troops near Xiliang in Chang'an traveled tens of thousands of miles, and most of them were in extremely desolate places.Even if there are sufficient supplies, the consumption of soldiers' morale is extremely high.

Even if Xu Wei wants to fight Liu Bei now, it is difficult for the soldiers in his hands to display half of their combat effectiveness, and it is inevitable to rest and recover their combat effectiveness!
However, the Western Regions are more than ten thousand miles away from the core area of ​​Dagan. Every extra day of 10 troops staying in the Western Regions is a great test for Dagan's logistics.

Liu Bei is now planning to compete with Dagan on the logistics lines of both sides, and the competition is on endurance, just like he did in the Hanzhong battle.

It was Liu Bei who suffered in the logistics of the Battle of Hanzhong. In the end, the court he was dragged into bankruptcy, but now he doesn't think that Dagan still has this ability in the Western Regions!

After Xu Wei understood Liu Bei's strategy, he laughed for a while.

It cannot be said that Liu Bei was wrong, and the people who formulated this strategy were not wrong, but Liu Bei and the others did not expect that the upgrading of weapons could change the situation on the battlefield. The previous impression was that formulating a strategy could only be done in a hurry!

Xu Wei first let the army rest in the city for half a month.

Then the 10 troops marched mightily towards Dawan City.

After the camp was set up, Xu Wei did not send troops to attack immediately, but sent envoys to Dawan City, saying that he wanted to catch up with Liu Bei before the battle.

Just like Xu Wei trusted Liu Bei's bottom line, Liu Bei also trusted Xu Wei's bottom line. It can even be said that Liu Bei's trust in Xu Wei was still higher than his own. It may be that he sticks to the bottom line and does not harm the people, but he has no ability to save the people.

However, at the end of the Han Dynasty, Xu Wei tried his best to save millions of refugees. These refugees later became the most powerful combat force of the Dagan Army. Wei did nothing wrong.

The next day, in the east of Dawan City.

Xu Wei asked someone to temporarily build a wooden pavilion and set up a table of wine and banquets.

Speaking of which, Liu Bei can be regarded as his idol. He has fought several times, but it seems that he never really sat down and chatted. This time may be the only time they met in their lives.

Soon, Liu Bei brought Zhang Fei and his personal guards to the pavilion, and Xu Wei also brought Zhang Xiu and other cronies.

When Xu Wei saw the old Liu Bei walking slowly, he said with a smile: "Mr. Xuande, I have been fighting for half my life, and it seems that this is the first time we meet!"

Liu Bei laughed at himself and said: "We met decades ago. At that time, our three brothers had just made some contributions in the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Then we followed Brother Bogui and led the cavalry to chase you, Lei Gong, but we were taught by you at the end. After a meal, I'm afraid you don't remember this matter anymore!"

Xu Wei has really forgotten this point. After all, this memory is too long. A person will remember deeply the things that he has suffered, but he will soon forget the things that have taken advantage of him. That time, Xu Wei defeated Liu Guan and Zhang San Brilliant as such a victory was, brother, he soon forgot it.

But for the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang, this failure is unforgettable. It is because of their failure that they released the most powerful rebel in the entire Han Dynasty, and this rebel engulfed the entire Han Dynasty in more than ten years , Many times they would think, if Lei Gong could be killed back then, would the big man survive!In this situation of thinking day and night, Liu Bei was naturally impressed.

The two greeted each other for a while and then sat down.

Then Xu Wei said: "Speaking of this battle, I don't want to fight. The emperor is just a name, and there is no sanctity at all. I want all the people in the world to be like dragons, and everyone to be themselves. The emperor, this way the world will be stable."

Zhang Fei snorted coldly and said, "Since Lei Gong, you don't care about my elder brother proclaiming himself emperor, why did you attack Tianzhu? You are considered a generation of heroes, and you actually deceived my elder brother with such duplicity!"
