Wushuang Wudi of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 127 Marching into Stability
Although, objectively speaking, at that time, there was not so much national consciousness and nationalism, and the rebellion of the Qiang people in Liangzhou was also closely related to the governance and management of local officials.Didn't it mean that the rebellion of the Qiang people was often assisted by the Han rebels? This is the reason.

The reason why they join forces is sometimes just to resist the cruel and heartless local officials. Han Sui's experience is very characteristic of this.

However, as the saying goes, those who are not of my race must have a different heart.The Qiang people rebelled blindly and passively created the emptiness of the Han people in the Liangzhou area.At the same time, the Silk Road was cut off, and the isolation barrier between the Qiang people, the Xianbei people, and the Huns was broken. You must know that the long and narrow Hexi Corridor is not only a passageway between east and west, but also a barrier between the southwest plateau region and the northeast grassland region.

For the entire Han nation, it would be a catastrophe if the Hu people merged and the Han people fled.

This strategic location must not be lost!These people in this era don't know the future, so they don't feel it, but Lu Bu knows it!

"I will never allow it to continue to happen." Lu Bu, who was leading the army on the steady Chitu horse, secretly said in his heart.

Since there are only so many resources, someone must die!

To deal with the Qiang people, you have to learn from Duan Yan's tricks, and kill him to make rivers of blood flow!Absolutely can not engage in any soft policy!Appeasement policy!In the later generations, they even said that the Qiang people were rebelling!How could a bullshit rebellion become a riot!Lu Bu is not afraid to recite the name of butcher!Who dares to criticize him as the emperor himself!

kill!Destroy them!
Lu Bu took the road of the northern route, along the line of Chiyang and Xinping, and entered Anding County in the northwest direction.This road is Lu Bu's sphere of influence along the way, and he has made great logistical preparations.In the previous battle between Lu Bu and Ma Teng and Han Sui, they also chose this path.

The southern route would be blocked by high mountains. In fact, Lu Bu had no choice.

Entering Anding County, you will turn to the southwest, enter Tianshui County, Longxi County; then, you can turn to Jincheng and Wuwei County in the northwest.Lu Bu's marching route is equivalent to taking a tortuous "zigzag".This long "Zhi" covered most of the Liangzhou area, with a journey of more than 2000 miles!

Based on the geographical environment in this area, it is estimated that it will take more than a month for a one-way march. In addition to the battle with Ma Teng and Han Sui, the elimination of the vital forces of the Qiang people, the return of the army, and other matters, this battle will last as long as For three months, food and grass will be a big problem.

Therefore, Lu Bu endured for a long time, and did not easily dispatch a large-scale army.

This time, since it is done, it will be done in one battle!
Lu Bu was not careless. Although he didn't bring counselors with him, he did bring a group of people, locals from Xiliang.These were all bought by the spy team.Hmm, they can be understood as Xiliang's leading dang.At any time, as long as you have power and money, you can buy anything!
Moreover, in order to prevent collusion, they do not know each other, do not meet, and do not contact each other.Of course, there is also the original Xiliang Legion, which has gained considerable reliance for a while.Lu Bu has seen many famous battles in which the entire army was wiped out in the enemy's territory.The army traveled two thousand miles and went to Liangzhou, which he was not very familiar with, so he had to be careful.

All the way was surprisingly smooth, the enemy was all invincible in the direction of the army, they broke up and fled, and no one resisted at all.

Lu Bu commanded an army of [-] troops and arrived at Gaoping, the county seat of Anding County.

The army is stationed here for a short rest.

"Report! Marquis Wen! General Zhang Liao's scouts came to report that Ma Teng had all withdrawn from Tianshui County and arrived in the area of ​​Longxi County. Han Sui also gathered his troops from Wuwei County and arrived at Didao in Longxi County. In addition, a large number of Qiang soldiers appeared, they came from more than a dozen different tribes, with a total of tens of thousands of people, and they joined the Ma Teng Han Sui coalition army!" The subordinate reported.

The atmosphere in the Chinese army tent was a little serious for a while.

"What! There are tens of thousands of Qiang people here!" Lu Bu's performance was beyond the expectations of the generals. He was neither surprised nor happy, but... dissatisfied?
Lu Fang, Li Su, Xu Rong, Hu Zhen and other generals couldn't help looking at each other in amazement.

"Marquis Wen? Dare to ask Marquis Wen, although our army is not afraid of Qiang soldiers, the less they come, the better? Why does Marquis Wen seem to be dissatisfied?" Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Xu Huang were not there. The old subordinate Cheng Lian asked first.

"Of course I'm dissatisfied! The Qiang people have been making troubles in Xiliang, isn't it a ready-made example now! There are certainly reasons for the Qiang people's rebellion, but we are the army of the Han family, not good people! What this Marquis wants to do, It is annihilation, annihilation of the Qiang people to the maximum extent! To ensure the tranquility of the entire western Liangzhou and the Hexi Corridor! Only in this way, the whole world will be stable!" Lu Bu said, with the meaning of killing with gold and iron horses.

"The Qiang people are numerous, up to hundreds of thousands, and they are called millions. Once they are given a chance, they will multiply like wild grass and occupy the land of our Han people! Turn our cultivated land into pastures, and the people will starve to death , The country is in trouble! So, kill it!" Lu Bu said coldly.

"No!" All the generals shuddered in their hearts, and said one after another.

"The Qiang people are difficult to deal with precisely because they have diverse ethnic groups, divided into dozens of branches of different sizes, scattered in the desolate and cold grasslands, plateaus, river valleys, and mountains! Those places can only graze , Our army’s food and grass are difficult to transport, and how to destroy them in the vast wilderness! Therefore, we must draw them out and wipe them out in one fell swoop. In addition, we must chase and wipe out the remnants of the enemy like the former Emperor Duan Yan did, and don’t let them escape!” Lu Bu! The reason was revealed and a strategy was laid down.

"So that's how it is! I would like to serve Marquis Wen!" Everyone suddenly realized, and responded with great joy.

The army lingered for several days, Cao Xing's 8500 men, with the help of the guard Xu Huang's troops, and the support of the local administrative system along the way, successfully established a stable logistics line.

Next, the [-]-strong army commanded by Lv Bu, this dark war behemoth, moved again and marched towards the half-deserted Tianshui County with heavy steps.As the vanguard, Zhang Liao's unit was the first vanguard, which broke into the Tianshui County area early and established an outpost camp.

When entering Tianshui County, something happened.

The army entered Tianshui through the Yuezhi Road. This Yuezhi Road is the name of a small county, not a road. Near the Yuezhi Road, there is a mountain called Kaitou Mountain.

According to the local people, there is a legend about Kaikai Mountain, which attracted Lu Bu's attention.
