Chapter 104
Yang Zheng confidently led a [-]-year-old battalion to lie in ambush in the southwest of Mochuan, waiting for Fu Nanqiang to catch him.

However, the net was opened, but the fish did not come in.

Three days later, bad news came from Nanmian Houhe.

Fu Nan's Ministry and the Prison Sister's Ministry attacked Hou He. Although they did not break the city, they looted thousands of Han people.

Houhe is in the north of Taoshui, bordering Lintao, an important town of Taoshui in the east, and Taoyang in the west, belonging to the southwestern part of Longxi.

"This matter is extremely unusual. The Qiang people may have big plans." Someone beside him said in a low voice.

Yang Zheng thought it was Zhou Yu, but suddenly remembered that Zhou Yu was farming in the Lishui protection core.

Even Zhang Te of the Xihe camp also moved to the south of the Yellow River to protect the farmland.

When he raised his eyes, he saw Du Bin who was thinking...

When did this guy stick up?
Yang Zheng had no impression at all.

But it sounds reasonable.

Although Du Bin is unreliable, he is also a talent cultivated by the Du family for many years.

The martial arts are not bad, and the knowledge is also there.

It's just that most of the time, the appearance in front of Yang Zheng is that of a playboy.

Could this guy really have two brushes?
After all, he is Du Yu's younger brother.

"Continue talking." Yang Zheng encouraged.

"The way to use troops is to show them to be weak and take advantage of them to be strong, and to show them to the east when they want to go west. The Qiang people have repeatedly invaded, and their intentions may be elsewhere!" It has to be said that Du Bin is still somewhat level when he is serious.

"Is it somewhere else?" Yang Zheng thought about it.

Could it be that Jiang Wei is going to make another Northern Expedition?
In the battle in the middle of the river, both sides won and lost.

All parts of Yongliang were mobilized by the Shu army. Wang Ping broke through Sanguan and swept more than [-] households to return south.

Jiang Wei defeated Guo Huai and Xiahouba successively.

On the surface, they have won, but the loss of more than 2000 tiger infantry troops cannot be replenished in a short while.

During the Northern Expedition of the Shu Army of the Three Routes, it cost a lot to transport grain from Hanzhong.

It is impossible for the Kingdom of Shu to make a comeback so soon...

However, Jiang Wei was promoted to General Wei because of this, and he and the general Fei Yi co-recorded Shangshu.

If it wasn't for cooperating with the Shu army, could it be that the Qiang people planned to deal with themselves?

Yang Zheng couldn't help laughing, he was a captain, not this onion.

"Look for Zhao Aqi and Gongsun Fu to meet me." Yang Zheng ordered to the soldiers around him.

After Mingyue Gorge, Yang Zheng asked Zhao Aqigong and Sun Fu to concentrate on Qiangdi and Xihaihu first.

After a while, the two came to see each other.

"How is the situation of the Qiangs in Taonan and the Hu people in Xihai?"

Zhao Aqi clasped his hands and said: "The subordinates have selected reliable people from the Qiang and Hu to make detailed works. Five batches have entered the Qiang land, Xihai, and Xiping land. There is no response yet."

Yang Zheng nodded.

This kind of thing can't be rushed.

The mountains in the Qiang land are undulating, and the road is difficult to walk. It is normal to not get news for a while.

Since there is no news, Yang Zheng can't wait in Mochuanbai.

Liu Yinchun led a battalion of five hundred Qiang guards.

As for the destroyed fields, we can only give up first.

Before finding out what kind of medicine the Qiang people sell in their throats, it doesn't make much sense to restore these villages.

Back in Fanghan, Yang Zheng wrote to Xia Houba to report the change of the Qiang people in detail.

It always feels like something big is going to happen.

Yang Zheng could only send out scouts, hoping to find some clues.

While waiting, Yang Zheng was not idle.

Li Mi's map is full of errors except for the area of ​​Yanhan.

Taking this map out to fight is purely courting death.

According to the experience of later generations, Yang Zheng piled up a sand table with clay.

Cover the whole of Hanhan.

The sand table is nothing special, someone has already made it.

In the eighth year of Jianwu in the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu conquered the powerful Kaihuo in Longxi, and the general Ma Yuan "gathered rice into a valley and pointed out the situation", which was the earliest sand table.

Emperor Guangwu praised: "The captive is in my eyes!"

Mastering the terrain means mastering the initiative in war.

Yang Zheng was deeply moved by the last battle at Jishi Mountain.

If Ye Sujiang fled back to the mountains, where would he find him?
The reason why the Qiang people have been suppressed repeatedly lies in the complex terrain of the Qiang land.

In time, Yang Zheng will definitely let the elaborators use a sand table to outline the topography of the Qiang land.

But for now, the sand tables of Longxi and Jishi Mountain are first made.

After a few days of busy work, the mountains and rivers near Fanghan are all in the sand table.

All the people in the army were amazed when they saw it.

"With the help of this thing, our army will be invincible!" Zhou Yu exclaimed.

Yang Zheng laughed out loud.

The changes of the Qiang people aroused Xiahouba's vigilance.

Under strict precautions, the Qiang people did not dare to do anything.

But in a blink of an eye, Jincheng County next door was attacked by the Huren Baihu Culture Department.

Anping County was attacked by horse thieves.

For a time, Liangzhou was in turmoil.

Two days later, Zhao Aqi Gongsun Fu came to report in a hurry: "I just received a detailed report that Zhong, Shaodang, Fu Nan, Shenlang, Gong Tang, and Zhu Qiang have made many moves recently, and they have been secretly connected. In addition, Midang, Ehe Shaoge, Fatong and other Qiang heads went west to Dayu Valley, and met Ye Wudai, Hu Wang of the West Sea."

"Hu Wang Baihuwen of Liangzhou in the north also sent people south to meet."

Zhao Ahqi was in charge of contacting and arranging the front-line detailed work, and Gongsun Fu was in charge of rear coordinating.

The records of the various Qiang tribes were also sorted out by Gongsun Fu.

Among the Qiangs, Ling Qiang was originally the most powerful, followed by Zhong Qiang, but Ling Qiang was a bit crazy and lost his way. He challenged Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and after being beaten violently, he calmed down.

But after that, he rebelled and fell from time to time, and repeatedly tried to rise up during the civil strife in the Central Plains. He was brutally beaten by Han generals Ma Yuan, Hou Ba, and Duan Ying.

Shaodang Qiang took advantage of the situation, occupied the fertile and large and small elm valleys, and grew rapidly.

But he was also violently beaten by the Han army.

In the second year of Emperor Yongchu of Han'an, Zhong Qiang suddenly attacked the Han army in western Hebei, killing more than a thousand people.

In winter, together with Xianling Qiang, they defeated Ren Shangyu Pingxiang, the school lieutenant of Zhengxi, killed more than [-] Han troops, and repelled tens of thousands of Han troops.

In three years, Zhong Qiang broke Lintao and captured the captain of the southwestern part of Hanlong.

Since then, a large number of Zhongqiang people lived in Minshan in the south of Longxi.

Zhong Qiang was once powerful, and at its peak, there were 72 species, known as a hundred thousand soldiers.

Twenty years later, in the third year of Emperor Yangjia of Hanshun, Zhong Qiang wanted to take Longxi, but was defeated by the famous general Ma Xian.

Midang is the Qiang king of Zhong Qiang.

Now that Qiang and Hu are meeting, even Baihuwen from the north has also sent people, it seems that the plot is not small.

"You guys did a good job." Yang Zheng praised.

Zhao Aqi and Gongsun Fu had a gleam of joy on their faces.

"Could it be that the Qiang people want to swallow the entire Liangzhou?" Zhou Yu asked in surprise.

"They don't have such a big appetite, and they don't have such a great strength. This matter must be reported to General Xiahou." Yang Zheng realized the seriousness of the matter.

Last year, when the Baishigu League met, Midang was ready to move.

Ken may have spotted the emptiness in Guanzhong and wanted to make a difference.

But in a blink of an eye, Cao Wei attacked Goguryeo and swept the three Liaos.

They had to go into hibernation again.

Fu Nanqiang's invasion of Tuntian is probably some kind of signal.

Fanghan was at the forefront of the storm, and Yang Zheng was even more at the forefront of the storm, not daring to take it lightly.

"Although you are a private battalion, you can also choose elite training. After a while, I will dispatch a batch of armor and military equipment. We must hurry up on the matter of Wubao. It is very likely that there will be another big battle in Longxi."

It has only been a few months of calm, and it is turbulent again.

"Follow the order." Zhou Yu cupped his hands.

The relationship between himself and Erhe Shaoge can only be regarded as a small fight, but if Midang, Ye Wudai, and Bai Huwen are connected in series, Xia Houba may not be able to handle it by then.
