Liangzhou.

The Liangzhou Legion is also annoyed now, this time in the battle against Qinghai, they are actually passively attacked.

Since Liu Chen ascended the throne as emperor, it is said that the birthplace of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River is Qinghai, which is now occupied by the Qiang and Di ethnic groups.

The Liangzhou Legion was already secretly planning to capture this area.

Qinghai was surrounded by the Western Regions Protectorate above, with the Western Liang army on the east side, and the Tibetan land of later generations on the west side, which is now also controlled by the Qiang people.

This area can be described as a bitter cold place, although there are a lot of natural resources, but with the capabilities of the two groups of Qiang and Qiang, it is naturally impossible to develop it.

Seeing that the stuffed land on the side of Xiliang is getting better and better under the construction of various cements and red bricks invented by Liu Chen.

Sacred objects such as potatoes and corn can even be cultivated in border areas such as Xiliang, and the yield is amazing.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and all the soldiers work together, and life can be described as prosperous.

This also made many voices of the Qiang Dynasty foreign race appear to be obedient to the Great Han.

Water flows low, people go high.

They saw the changes in Western Liang, plus there were also many Qiang people in Liangzhou.

In fact, even Ma Chao has the blood of this Qiang clan, which can be called a mixed blood of later generations.

This made the Qiang Dynasty alien race not so resistant to integrating into Western Liang.

The Western Liang Legion, which has been paying attention to Qinghai's foreign territory, was naturally overjoyed and came up with a strategy to divide the foreign races and then break them individually.

Today, many Qiang and foreign tribes in the Qinghai have secretly joined the Liangzhou Legion.

With the support of the resources of the Liangzhou Legion, their lives are getting better and better, their soldiers are getting stronger and stronger, and their voices in their respective clans are getting bigger and bigger!

Everything is moving towards the original plan.

According to the plan of Jia Xu and others, in another three or four years, when they control two-thirds of the voices, they can make a strong move.

At that time, you can even take this land without bloodshed.

Unfortunately, the accident still happened.

The Liangzhou Legion extended its tentacles towards the Western Regions Protectorate, the Wusun Kingdom, the Dawan Kingdom, and the Guishuang Empire, attracting their counterattacks.

Among the Qiang tribes, there is a Xiaoyue clan, and they have always had dealings with the Kushan Empire.

The Kushan Empire is also an empire established by the former Yue tribe after moving west. They took root in the territory of the Caspian Sea and Afohan in later generations.

It is exactly the Western Regions Protectorate to the east, the Rest Empire to the west, the Dawan Kingdom to the north, and the Wusun Kingdom a little farther away.

These foreign countries, which had had friction, finally joined forces in the face of the iron horse threat of the Han army.

And the Xiaoyue clan, who had always been in the same breath as the Great Moon Clan, that is, the Kushan Empire, took the lead in attacking the Western Liang side.

Those Qiang alien races who had already defected to the Great Han Dynasty directly asked the Liangzhou Legion for help in the face of the sudden attack.

Jia Xu, Ma Chao and other Liangzhou legions had to send troops to help. But this passive attack completely disrupted their plans.

In the hearts of all the generals of the Liangzhou Legion, they all held an evil fire, wanting to find the Xiaoyue clan to vent.

However, the Xiaoyue clan also knew the strength of the Liangzhou Legion, and did not go head-to-head with them, and had always fought in a roundabout way, just like a guerrilla war.

Their position is the future Qinghai.

The geography here is high in the west and low in the east, and the eastern region is the transition from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the Loess Plateau. There is also the Qaidam Basin above, and the Kunlun Mountains are undulating.

The terrain is complex, the terrain is changeable, and the altitude is more than 4,000 meters on average, which has an extremely severe test for the physical fitness of soldiers.

If it weren't for this life, with Liu Chen's six-fold increase in ability, the Liangzhou Legion would not dare to go deep into the Qinghai region.

This is not the Qinghai developed and built in later generations, but in the barbaric and cold area of the Han Dynasty. The temperature difference between day and night is extremely large, and the environment is harsh.

Marching combat can be described as difficult!

The most important thing is that the soldiers of the Liangzhou Legion receive a physical fitness bonus and can fight in this plateau area.

However, the horses under their seat could not withstand this sudden change in the environment, and for a while, the war horses died violently.

Coupled with the scattered people of the Xiaoyue clan, it was not at all like the battle with the princes in the Han Dynasty, tens of thousands or more than 100,000 troops were fighting.

All the clansmen of the Xiaoyue Clan added up, and the total number of people is only 10,000 or 20,000. Under the dispersion, it is difficult to encircle and suppress.

In this battle, the Liangzhou Legion was full of anger when it passively attacked, and now it was even more annoyed by the other side's roundabout combat and guerrilla warfare!

If it weren't for the 'air force' of communication pigeons and reconnaissance pigeons, the Liangzhou Legion would have been even more humiliated!

After careful consideration, Jia Xu decided to move forward steadily, while directly developing and building Qinghai.

Temporary camps are set up along lakes and rivers.

In the Qiang camp of the Qiang Dynasty in Guishun Dahan, red brick cement houses were directly built. Heating equipment such as fire pits are on the agenda.

Since it had already torn its face, the Liangzhou Legion did not care about its face, and directly led its army into the Qinghai realm.

Qinghai is rich in resources, oil, natural gas, coal, salt, and there are many metal mines.

Today, Dahan's industrial capabilities can actually be fully tapped and used. Of course, it cannot be used perfectly.

For example, oil and gas, like oil can extract rubber, but with today's industrial capabilities, this step cannot be done at all.

However, the Liangzhou Legion does not care, these resources are ingested by money, and money can feed back into the development and construction of the Great Han.

At the same time, trade can be used to gradually encroach on foreign aliens.

Not only that, Qinghai's land resources are also very abundant. According to Jia Xu's observation, cultivated land occupies more than 560% of the land.

The cultivated land is still on the east side, that is, the side near Liangzhou.

If it is used to grow crops such as potatoes and corn, it will definitely make the Qiang Dynasty foreign race rich in food.

This is why Jia Xu insisted on entering Qinghai.

Although it was not on the surface, Jia Xu secretly observed and studied that as long as it was the territory of the Great Han, the output was more than five or six times higher than that of other regions.

Just like the physical fitness of all the soldiers has improved.

Everyone knows, but they hide it in their hearts and do not say it.

If Qinghai is stationed in the Liangzhou Legion, isn't it equivalent to becoming a territory occupied by the Han Dynasty? Then obviously you can get this bonus too!

The western regions are all pastoral areas, which can provide a place for Dahan to raise horses.

Although the glaciers, Gobi, deserts and other places in Qinghai have a great impact on human activities. But there's no denying that the area is rich in resources.

Most importantly, the place where the dragon vein of the Great Han originated, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, all originated from the Qinghai.

The ancient people paid the most attention to superstition, not to mention Liu Chen's ability bonus, doubling of land production, and other matters, all of which proved the fact that God favored him.

This is also the reason why the Liangzhou Legion insists on taking Qinghai has become obsessive!

If you take the Qinghai Sea and occupy the origin of the dragon vein, this is a great achievement! They can completely ask Liu Chen for a reward!

After having a clear goal, Jia Xu and the other Liangzhou Legion were not annoyed.

As long as they steadily open up the construction of Qinghai, they will gradually encroach on the west. Even those rebels of the Xiaoyue clan were helpless.

If they attack, with the power of the Liangzhou Legion, they can be easily defeated.

Thinking about it this way, this tactic of waiting for work and recuperating with ease has won the recognition of all the soldiers of the Liangzhou Legion!

No matter how provocative the Satsuki Clan tried to lure them into pursuit. The Liangzhou Legion was just indifferent.

Slowly and firmly starting from Liangzhou, all the way west, all the way to development and construction.

If you calculate it this way, at the speed of the Han engineering troops, it will only be able to push to Tibet in a year or two.

If they continue to move westward, there will be mountains and mountains that hinder their way to continue westward.

Like the Himalayas.

If there is a way to turn over, they can directly attack the Kushan Empire and the Body Poison Country.

......

Just when the Liangzhou Army was making a plan to fight and advance, the generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici and other generals of the Jingzhou Army led an army of 100,000, and finally reached the belly of Yizhou.

Fa Zheng and other local generals in Yizhou greeted the arrival of the Jingzhou army.

However, when they saw Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other 100,000 troops, even if they had been mentally prepared, they were stunned!

"General Guan, General Zhang, what are you?"

Fa Zheng was a little shocked, "Although our Yizhou army did not repel the Nanban rebels, it did not fall into the downside. You don't have to go through such a big effort. "

The rush of 100,000 troops to the aid is not just a piece of data.

The consumption of horses and horses, the preparation of food and grass for the soldiers, the expenditure on the march, etc., are all astronomical sums.

If it weren't for the fact that Liu Chen personally designated the Jingzhou Army to come to the aid this time, the Yizhou Army would not need the Jingzhou Army to intervene in Yizhou's affairs at all.

This not only shows that they are incompetent, but also gives up their military merits in vain.

Guan Yu laughed and said, "I'm waiting for Your Majesty, and I should go all out." If you are neglected, is there no negative divine grace? "

Fa Zheng Yuguang glanced at it, and then glanced at Zhang Song and other Yizhou officials, and there were some guesses in his heart.

Jingzhou Army is afraid that it has other plans, right?

Since the main purpose is not to annihilate the Southern Barbarian rebels, and to come to Yizhou with a large number of people, it is impossible to want to occupy the Magpie's Nest, right?

Obviously, Guan Zhang and other Jingzhou troops came for the sake of the Shan State in the southwest.

This is also His Majesty the Han Emperor's plan to move west.

It's just that the planned offensive route is for Western Liang to march from the Western Regions to the army. Then the Jiaozhou side attacked from the waterway.

As for the attack on the Shan State from the southwest of Yizhou, Fa Zheng and the others shook their heads and smiled.

There are indeed rumors that Yiju has a secret road to the Shan State. These generals who have been stationed in Yizhou for many years naturally also know.

It's just that.

The main problem is the tropical rainforest and high mountain peaks after the Shan State, which are desperate and there is no way to pass unless a road of attack is carved out.

However, the manpower and material resources that need to be spent, labor and money, it is better to attack directly from the Western Regions by land, or Jiaozhou by land and water.

Looking at the way Guan Zhang and the others didn't want to say it, Fa Zheng directly explained the reason, which made Guan Zhang a little surprised in his heart.

Fa Zheng and other Yizhou officials were not prepared to watch Guan Zhang and other Jingzhou Army jokes. Although they belong to different factions. But they all belonged to the Han family loyalists.

Guan Zhang seemed to be moved, and sincerely discussed with the general of Yizhou, wanting to open up a channel.

In the future, if there is such a passage to the west, they will definitely be able to win the first attack, and it will not be a problem to wait for worship.

"I understand what you think, but for now, you need to wipe out the Nanban rebels first. In this way, we can wholeheartedly explore and open up the way to the west. "

"Exactly."

The Yizhou Army and the Jingzhou Army initially reached an idea of cooperation.

Just when the general of Yizhou warmly welcomed Guan Zhang and other Jingzhou troops, and at the same time discussed the plan to advance west, the herald soldiers hurriedly came to report.

"Report! General Yu, the Southern Barbarian King Meng Yu led the army of tigers and wolves to chaos Yunnan and other places in Yongchang County..."

The herald's words made the atmosphere of pushing the cup and changing the lamp sluggish.

Guan Zhang and the others were even more overjoyed, and it was better to come early than to come by chance. They are trying to go into battle to kill the enemy and win military merit.

"It's better for me to wait for the lead!"

Guan had also heard of this Meng Yu leader in Jingzhou, and if he was killed, the rebels would surely be leaderless! "

Guan Yu said eagerly, he definitely has this strength.

After Fa Zheng waved back the herald soldiers, he said to Guan Yu:

"Brother Yun can know that Meng Yu is not only brave in battle, but most importantly, loyal to others, and has a lot of prestige among the Yi and Han ethnic groups.

This is also the reason why our Yizhou Army did not strike with thunder and implemented the beheading plan. If this person is killed, it will trigger a complete rebellion of the alien race.

If we can appease this person, it can be used to us. "

After hearing Fa Zheng's explanation, Guan Zhang and the others finally understood why the Yizhou Army was at a stalemate with the foreign race.

If you make a strong move, with the power of the Yizhou army's ability bonus, there will definitely be a way to kill the enemy army.

It's just that.

As he said, the real purpose of the Yizhou Army was to recruit the enemy army and use it for its own use. The plot is even bigger!

After all, it is easy to kill the enemy, and it is also possible to capture the enemy alive, but it is difficult to make the enemy submit to the mouth!

"Will this move prolong the morale of others and destroy their own prestige?"

Guan Yu said worriedly: "This kind of practice of being a thief and unable to beg for surrender will not help increase the arrogance of foreign races?" "

"I'll understand this later."

Li Yan shook his head and said, "However, if you can appease Meng Yu, it is equivalent to completely controlling the southwestern barbarians, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

What's more, Meng Yu knew everything about the southwest. Didn't General Guan want to explore the way west? If you have this person's help, you will definitely do more with less! "

This made Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and other Jingzhou generals moved.

"No matter what, without further ado, let's lead the army to the front line, and then General Ben will go to meet Meng Yu for a while to suppress the arrogance of the enemy army."

"That's fine!"
