Chapter 273 Loyalty
"Out of its kind; out of its kind. Yang Xingyun is very human, and Deng Ai deserves to lose!" Wei Guan sighed after seeing the silk brought from the south.

Then he handed the silk to Hu Fen.

"Sixteen Zhechong mansions, five mansions in Jincheng, four mansions in Xiping, four mansions in Hequ, and three mansions in Xihai! Each mansion has one captain of Zhechong, one deputy lieutenant on the left and right, one man each from Yajiang, Changshi, Bingcao, and Xuanyiling. Why do ten people, 30 people make a team, a hundred people make a village, 500 people make a qu, and 500 people in three songs make a mansion! Raising an army with land costs nothing, good strategy, good strategy!" Hu Fen sighed.

"Slaves, waiting to return, and governing the people! With these three strategies, the Qiang and Hu will be wiped out in China!" Wei Guan praised again, "There must be heroes in 500 years, and there must be famous people in the meantime!"

Hu Fen was stunned for a moment, "Boyu's praise is too much."

Wei Guan's eyes flashed with brilliance, "No, these two strategies can get rid of the chronic diseases of the world since the Han Dynasty. The Great Wei has redundant nobles and officials, the nobles and powerful families occupy the Tibetan people, and the Xianbei Huns and Qianghu Di tribes in the border areas are all in danger. This is a big problem, the strategy of farming, the army and the people complain, if these two strategies can be followed, then our Great Wei will be able to unify the world and reproduce the prosperity of the Han family!"

Hu Fen looked at him with a strange look.

Wei Guan had just turned thirty this year, and he still had a bookish spirit in his chest.

Touching Hu Fen's eyes, he let out a long sigh, "Sima Gong took power as a gentry, how could he cut down on his own foundation?"

"Back in Longyou, I met Yang Zheng a few times, and I felt that he was very different from ordinary people. I never thought that he would have a talent for life, but it's a pity that he couldn't be used by Sima Gong!" Hu Fen looked nostalgic and regretful. .

Wei Guan laughed lightly, "No one can use this person!"

Hu Fen's eyes sharpened, "Since it can't be used, it must be Sima Gong's trouble!"

Hu Fen, who has always had a bold temperament, rarely has this kind of expression on his face.

"I really want to see this person with my own eyes." Wei Guan said quietly, "It's a pity that this life is not at the right time."

"The day before yesterday Chang'an dispatched [-] soldiers, more than [-] sets of bows, crossbows, knives and spears, and Nan'an Governor Deng recruited [-] elite men. Within two years, Bo Yu will definitely see Yang Xingyun himself!" Hu Fen was extremely confident.

Wouldn't it be too simple to overwhelm a corner of Xiping with the power of the entire Yongliang?

However, the expression on Wei Guan's face was a little strange, "Three years... In three years, many things will happen."

He wanted to persuade Hu Fen as soon as possible, but he was just a Sima.

Sima and his son sent him to Liangzhou, on the one hand, of course because of his talent, and on the other hand, to moderately suppress the Hedong Wei family.

The Wei family did not have a deep root in the court, but they had a high status among Confucian scholars.

Gaozu Wei Hao was a great Confucian who was famous all over the world during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty.

His father, Wei Ke, advised Wei Wu many times. Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, and many official documents, edicts, and Confucian rituals and etiquettes all came out of Wei Ke's hands.

Cao Wei has always had a profound influence.

Also regarded as a loyal minister of Cao Wei.

At a young age, Wei Guan inherited his father's nobility as the Marquis of Xixiang, and he was on the same level as Zhuge Wuhou.

When he was only 20 years old, he was called into the center by Emperor Ming and became Shangshulang.

If it weren't for the Gaoping Mausoleum change, Wei Guan at this time would have become an important minister in the court or a big official.

Sima and his son naturally did not want the influential Hedong Wei family to side with Cao Wei.

What's more, I don't want Wei Guan, who has talent, family background and reputation, to be a loyal minister of the Cao family.

Wei Guan is naturally aware of these secret things.

So there are some things that Hu Fen can say, but he cannot.

Since I can't talk about it, I can only change the subject, "Recently, the general wiped out the Qiang Hu, will there be any gains?"

When it comes to military affairs, Hu Fen immediately became interested, "The thirteen Qiang and Hu tribes in the Wuwei area are all pacified by me, with more than 470 young and strong people, 70 horses, cattle and sheep, and [-] shi of grain and fodder for military use. Greatly enriched, the Taiwei also sent an envoy to say that after the autumn harvest, [-] stone grains will be sent to Wuwei and Nan'an!"

With food, there will be troops.

With a stutter, as well as titles such as Hu Qiang Yi Zhonglang General, Chi Jie, Liangzhou Governor, etc., Hu Fen can directly recruit righteous followers from all ethnic groups.

From any point of view, dealing with Xiping is enough.

In terms of population, materials, military strength, and various powers bestowed by the imperial court, Xiping all fell into a disadvantage.

Wei Guan nodded lightly, "With the bravery of the general and the fortitude of the governor Deng, Xiping should be unable to escape this calamity."

Hu Fen heard a trace of disapproval in Wei Guan's words, raised his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Could there be other variables?"

If the power of the entire Yongliang cannot deal with Xiping, the consequences are self-evident.

That would be a disaster for the Hu family, as well as for Sima and his son.

Wei Guan laughed softly, "Variables exist in the weather, and the changes are endless. How can human beings predict it? My subordinates suggest that we should unite with the countries of the Western Regions and attack the Western Sea."

Yongliang and the Western Regions formed a semi-encirclement of Xiping strategically.

Although Hu Fen is a warrior, he doesn't have the self-willedness of a warrior, so he deeply agrees with this strategy, "I will send an envoy to the Western Regions!"

"People who are envoys should not be rash. They should be famous, talented and famous in Xizhou, otherwise they will not be able to show the majesty of the court."

Hu Fen was stumped by this matter.

There are quite a few people under him who can fight, and there are also many strategists, but it is difficult to find people who are famous and talented in the northwest.

But Wei Guan had expected it a long time ago, "A certain recommends someone."

"who?"

"Fan Can, former governor of Wuwei!"

"Fan Can? This person is a suitable candidate, so I will invite you personally." Hu Fen acted vigorously and resolutely.

During the Zhengshi period, Fan Can ruled Wuwei, hired talented people, built schools, encouraged farming, recruited Qianghu, and became well-known far and wide.

Later, because of her mother's old age, she resigned to take care of her. Later, she was used many times and resigned many times.

Annoyed Cao Shuang's party, he was kicked to Jiuquan County and became the magistrate of Lexi County.

Wei Guan is quite satisfied with Hu Fen, not all his superiors can accept the suggestion of his subordinates in this way, "At present, the generals and soldiers are full of fine food, so we still can't slack off, and we should continue to work on the integration of Qiang and Hu Fen."

"The small tribes in Wuwei have been subdued, are we going to deal with the Xianbei Xiongnu?" Hu Fen hesitated.

After the Xiongnu was defeated by the Han court, the Xianbei tribes rose up.

Wei Wu placed the Southern Xiongnu in Hetao and Hedong, and Xianbei occupied the land of Monan, and its strength gradually grew.

Ke Bineng once unified the central Xianbei, and had the heart to unify Xianbei. The governor of Youzhou, Wang Xiong, sent the assassin Han Long to assassinate him. Xianbei fell into a state of fragmentation again, and the huge hidden danger in the north of Cao Wei was temporarily lifted.

The Xianbei and Huns in Liangzhou have certain strengths.

It's not something Hu Fen can provoke now.

If one was not dealt with well, Liangzhou was immediately at war.

The stability of Liangzhou in recent years is also because Xianbei and Xiongnu are still obedient and did not follow the Qianghu to make trouble.

"The tribes of Lushuihu were hit hard by Yang Zheng last year, and it was time for them to be weak! Moreover, Lushuihu spans several counties including Xiping, Wuwei, Zhangye, and Jiuquan. The general can use this move to extend his power to the other three counties in Hexi Among them!" Wei Guan said.

Hu Fen beamed with joy. Although he is the governor of Liangzhou, it is not so simple to mobilize other counties.

Dealing with the Lushui Department happened to be the duty of the Qiang Yi Zhonglang General.

"Sima Gong used Boyu to help me, it's really God's help!"
