I, Liu Bian, Sanxing Han Dynasty

Chapter 248 Liangzhou Proverb

The conflict was easily resolved. Facing the few people sitting on the floor, Liu Bian took the lead and said: "Everyone has different experiences, and the scenery of each state in our country is also different. Why not take this opportunity to exchange a few words, increase your knowledge, and live up to today?" meet?"

Several people nodded in unison.

Liu Bian first asked Sun Ce and Ma Chao about the vegetables and rations that Liangzhou was accustomed to eating, and then asked: "According to what you two see, what is the imperial court's policy towards the Qiang people in Liangzhou?"

Ma Chao was the first to say: "The Qiang people only want justice."

Soon, several people started chatting about everything.

During the conversation, Wang Can only felt that this descendant of Jiyang Hou was really knowledgeable, understood a little about everything, and sometimes had thought-provoking opinions.

Because the conversation was very complicated, the others were not afraid of not being able to get in the conversation. Only Sun Ce hid his thoughts and spoke less. This allowed Lu Jun, who was generally silent, to say a few more words when introducing the scenery of Wu. Generally speaking, Liu Bian and Wang Can read more books and speak more.

For Liu Bian, talking to Wang Can and others was very different from talking to ministers. He could say whatever he wanted. After being reminded by Zhao Yun, he realized that he had been talking for nearly an hour without knowing it. They all drank a lot.

After leaving the palace for a long time, he had to go back.

But when he came back to his senses, he finally realized it.

Liu Bian bowed his hands to everyone present and said, "I wanted to continue talking with you, but my family urged me to leave first."

He suddenly remembered that he had only been talking about everything and only remembered that this person was a descendant of the Marquis of Jiyang. As for his name, why couldn't he remember it?

After that, Liu Bian took the people and left.

Wang Can here is still thinking about whether to write a four-character poem about today's situation, but Lu Jun next to him is still wondering-

"If you come to see me for anything, you can first look for Zilong. Zilong is the commander of General Hussar, so he is easy to find..."

Moreover, he had made a big mistake not long ago. Although he later made amends and was pardoned, it would inevitably leave a bad impression on the emperor.

At this time, Sun Ce finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Brother Gong Yi has never thought about who else could be allowed to protect Zhao Sima, who has so many military exploits, at close range?"

Even though he is ignorant, he also knows that the relationship between the two relatives of Xigong, He and Dong, is not good. This was no longer a secret a few years ago. Is there any new change that he doesn't know about?
Lu Jun habitually doubted himself first.

The emperor had revealed his identity before leaving, so he didn't have to hide it.

Lu Jun finally came to his senses. He didn't even have time to get excited for a second. He asked in a panic, "Did I say something wrong before?"

"How come the great general's nephew is with the hussar general's commander?"

Although Wang Can was smart since he was a child, he didn't react at first.

Wang Can, whose thoughts were interrupted, was not annoyed when he saw this, and even offered words of comfort: "It's not a correct performance in the court, it's just chatting, it's just a sentence or two that was wrong, and it's not rebellious. What's the big deal?"

While several people were talking, Sun Ce suddenly noticed Ma Chao, who had been silent since the emperor left, and asked, "Meng Qi, why don't you say a few words?"

"I've been away from home for a year, and I don't know what the situation is like at home. Although Luoyang is nice, it's not as comfortable as at home." Ma Chao looked a little depressed. I don't know whether it was because of the topic of Liangzhou or Liu Bian's appearance that made him suddenly homesick. Lu Jun and Sun Ce both understood Ma Chao's situation and patted Ma Chao's shoulders.

Seeing this, Wang Can suddenly recited half of a poem, saying: "The God was restless and ordered the Han Dynasty to be cool. Longshan was listed as the Western Wilderness with the Sui. Jinyue was lined up in the south, and Qianghu was set up in the north. Together with the vassal country, one Protect the other capital."

This is part of "Liangzhou Proverbs", which was written by Yang Xiong during the reign of Emperor Mang. At that time, the Han Dynasty was in decline. At that time, Kyoto was still Chang'an, and Liangzhou was already surrounded by barbarians. Yang Xiong used this poem to admonish the Ming Dynasty. The importance of Liangzhou.

"Liangzhou is originally a Han country. Now that we have seen the Holy Emperor, we should work hard. If a man has made great achievements, why worry about not being able to return home in fine clothes? Why act like a child?" Wang Jie looked serious. Although he was thin and small, he spoke very tall. .

Ma Chao nodded.

Liangzhou.

"This is the time to make great achievements!" Ma Teng waved his sword and pointed at Linqiang County ahead, which was the last stronghold of Han Sui's troops in Jincheng County.

After receiving the order, the Qiang soldiers under his command rushed forward with chariots and ladders.

On the large dirt hill that had just been completed, a large number of archers shot arrows into the city under the command of the lookouts on the taller towers next to them.

Linqiang County is located between the Shaodang Qiang and Huangzhong Qiang, the two Qiang tribes that most supported Han Sui, but today is different from the past.

Ever since Han Sui lost the more than 10,000 Qiang cavalry gathered by his subordinates in the battle with Huangfu Song, Han Sui had only defensive capabilities in the face of Ma Teng, who was originally weaker than him.

The Shaodang Qiang and Huangzhong Qiang have also become unstable. Although they will not use Han Sui's head as a token of surrender, it is impossible for them to spare no effort as before.

This decline in support from the Erqiang directly led to Han Sui's lack of strength to defend the city. On the other hand, Ma Teng also has Qiang ancestry. Although he has become a Han official again, he is still as good to the Qiang people as before, and the Qiang people who follow him can continue to be Han officials.

The Qiang people are not stupid. After such a long time, the situation has become clear.

It was through the decline and the increase that we achieved what we have today.

Seeing that the city could still resist, Han Sui had been operating in Jincheng County for many years, and he had some die-hard confidants after all. Ma Teng said to the people around him: "Colonel Guanqiu, seeing the situation in the city, I am afraid that the Han thieves will escape. It’s been a couple of days.”

Guanqiu Yi was ordered by Huangfu Song to assist Ma Teng, not only for the purpose of surveillance, but also to ensure that Han Sui would not escape outside the Great Wall.

Guanqiu Yi said in confusion: "Linqiang City was once the headquarters of the Qiang Guards, and the city defense was very adequate. In the early days, Qiang people from outside the Great Wall often came to assist Han Sui, including the Huangzhong Qiang behind us. It may not be stable, let alone Shaodangqiang to the west of Linqiang City."

"How could Han Sui be willing to flee beyond the Great Wall before all is exhausted?"

Ma Teng immediately explained: "The captain doesn't know that although the Huangzhong Qiang still loves Han Sui, they are just like the Shaodang Qiang. They were killed by Duan Jiong thirty years ago and surrendered. Now our Han army has arrived again. Even though he was not punished, he was still given an official position, and General Zuo was in charge of the military power. Among them, the old people who experienced what happened thirty years ago are still there. With them suppressing him, there will be no great chaos."

"The same goes for burning the Qiang people. As for the Qiang people outside the Great Wall... the captain should be aware that the Liangzhou Qiang people may not be happy for the Qiang people outside the Great Wall to enter the Great Wall."

After all, Guan Qiu Yi was the captain of the Northern Military Academy, so he knew it after listening to Ma Teng talk about some local conditions.

As long as they didn't lose the battle, Han Sui would only die if he stayed in the city.
