I need a general who can lead an elite army to the bottom of the Great Fei Mountains. I want to let the heirs and soldiers on the Great Fei Ridge know that the imperial court is still watching them and will support them at any time. ”

In front of the temple of manna.

"But this army will not be very numerous, so this army will be dangerous on this trip."

In front of the emperor, all the generals of the three yas listened to it and all asked for orders.

The inner yazhong lang invited Su Dingfang to play.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he can send an army to attack Jiacheng from Tongchang County, Jiannan Province, to attack the party."

"Get the map!" The Emperor said.

When Jiannan's map was taken, the emperor found the Jiacheng City of Tongchang County that Su Dingfang had said.

After a careful look, Luo Cheng found that this was the Songpan of the later generations, and in the Tang Dynasty, it was Songzhou, known as the gateway to western Sichuan.

Songzhou chokes the Minling, controls the source of the river, leads the river long on the left, and reaches Kangzang on the right.

Shield the heavens and lock the shadows.

Since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, cities have been built here, and there are heavy troops to defend against the Qiang people in the west. Especially during the Hundred Years War of Han and Qiang, it was a battleground for soldiers.

Su Dingfang further pointed out to the emperor that if the troops came out from Longyou or Hexi, the enemy would be on guard. Far from sending troops from Shu, Jiacheng sending troops, there is an ancient road to reach the back of the party, and can go straight to Subi and Tibet.

He insisted that there was no need to send an army to the heavily surrounded Dafei Ridge at this time, because such an army would be easily annihilated if it was alone in the depths.

On the contrary, it is better to attack this army from Jiacheng, relying on Jiacheng's base, and there is a river connected to Chengdu, so that the logistics and heavy soldiers can get the greatest support.

"This advance can be attacked, and retreat can also be defended."

Jiacheng County, in the west of the snow-capped mountains, on the west bank of the Minjiang River.

Immediately, a senior general stood up and accused Su Dingfang of the impracticality of this strategy.

"Your Majesty, Tongchang County is not actually controlled by my Great Qin at the moment."

It turned out that the first emperor merged the six countries, but the soldiers did not go west, so the Qiang species were able to multiply. Han Wu chased the Xiongnu in the north and Zhuqiang in the west, so the Han army crossed the river and Huang, built an order to live in the fortress, placed the Qiang school captain, and listed the four counties in the west of the river to isolate the Qianghu.

As for the Later Han Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, the Qiang either surrendered or rebelled, and at the end of the Later Wei Dynasty, Ping Deng to Fan, the beginning of the unification had its place.

After Zhou Baoding five years, the dragon was placed in this dry defense, and the first year of Tianhe was changed to Fuzhou, leading the dragon to dry up the county. Sui Kaihuang abolished Longgan County in three years, placed Jiacheng Town, and changed Fuzhou to Tongchang County in three years, leading Jiacheng and Jiaochuan and other seven counties.

But at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the land west of the snow-capped mountains fell back into Dangxiangqiang.

After that, Great Qin entered Bashu, and the counties were attached.

However, many counties and counties in the west of Shu are still in the hands of Xiqiang.

The imperial court has not yet freed up its hands to recover these lost frontiers.

'Your Majesty, Tongchang County has jurisdiction over seven counties, but now it is only one county in Tongchang City, which is in the eastern part of Shangxue Mountain. Su Dingfang said that he would send troops from Tongchang and go deep into the heart of the party, but he didn't even know that Jiacheng County was still in the hands of the party, so what else could he talk about? ”

Su Dingfang couldn't help blushing and was embarrassed.

He really didn't take this into account, and only said that the land of Bashu had long been attached to Daqin, but unexpectedly, there were many places on the border of Shu at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and Qiang Rong took advantage of the fire to rob and occupy them.

"Your Majesty, even if Tongchang County has not been occupied by the party, it will be difficult to send troops from now on. In the seventh year of the Great Cause, Tongchang County Township 6 and household registration were only 702. ”

The emperor frowned, but he was not in a hurry to dismiss Su Dingfang's strategy.

After pondering for a long time, the emperor pointed to the location of the snow-capped mountains on the map.

"There are snow-capped mountains and the Luojiang River, and the land of western Sichuan is in the hands of the party, which is really not easy to get. However, it is precisely because the party took advantage of the Sui chaos to occupy important places in western Sichuan, so it should be taken back this time. Su Dingfang, if I let you lead your troops to take the old land of Sui to the west of the Snow Mountain, do you have the confidence and how many troops do you need? ”

Su Dingfang became excited, "Your Majesty, just give the minister a soldier and horses." ”

"I will give you 50,000 horses, and I will send you out with you, and I will transfer Luo Simo as your deputy general, and Zhang Liang as your striker."

Since you want to fight, then go all out, and the lion and the rabbit will also use all your strength.

This war with Tubo, Western Turks, and Tuyuhun was a decisive battle in the western frontier of Great Qin, but it was not limited to fighting in Tuyuhun, as long as he could defeat the enemy, Luo Cheng didn't mind attacking from multiple ways.

Mobilize 50,000 horses from Hedong in Henan Province to western Sichuan, and at the same time recruit county soldiers from Bashu and Yunnan and Guizhou as auxiliaries to recruit soldiers to transport grain and grass to the people.

"Su Dingfang, I will give you all the money and food, just one request, first take Jiacheng County, and then build a military fort here, guard the gateway to western Sichuan, and immigrate to Tuntian. Use this as a base to defeat the party. ”

Not only the party, but also the eight countries such as Bailanqiang to the south and Dongnu in the area of Xiaojinchuan are all within Luo Cheng's plan. He wanted to build a city on the western side of Sichuan, restore the old borders, and even fight to defeat these Western Qiang who were vassals to Tubo, and let them belong to Daqin.

In the future, it will also build cities in the Qiang land and settle the army to immigrate, and permanently convert these Qiang lands into Han lands.

"I support you with the population taxes of the four provinces of Bahan, Jiannan, Yunnan, and Qianzhong, and you don't want to disappoint me."

Luo Chengba gave Su Dingfang 50,000 troops, as well as the same number of auxiliaries, and several times the number of people, and also put generals like Luo Simo and Zhang Liang who were far more qualified and meritorious than Su Dingfang to his deputy, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to the selection of commanders this time.

Originally, the emperor wanted to send an army to Dafeiling, join up with Heiye, and strengthen his forces to hold on for a longer time. But now that Su Dingfang mentioned it, he changed his strategy.

Instead of risking to Dafeiling, it is better to encircle Wei to save Zhao, and first attack the party of Tubo's vassals, Bailan Zhuxiqiang.

"I will give you the sword of Shang Fang, and allow you to have double knots, from you below, from the deputy head of the march to the sergeant of the army, and anyone who violates the military order can be beheaded."

"Your Majesty trusts you."

Su Dingfang was so excited that he couldn't express it, although he defected to Luo Cheng very early, almost the same batch as Cheng Biting the Golden Bull, but later made a mistake, and after being demoted, he missed several good opportunities to make meritorious contributions, so his position in the army has not been high.

Although it also showed a good ability to command troops, Great Qin did not lack military generals, so it has been sinking. This was later when he commanded the Shenji Battalion and made good results, and later established the Shenji Army, and then the Shenji Army was split into various armies, and he was also promoted to the rank of lieutenant general in the internal army.

And now, he finally got the opportunity to be able to unify his face, and even famous generals like Luo Simo and Zhang Liang were under his command, and the two famous generals of Hu Ren, Zhi Zhi Sili and Qi Bi He Li, also came under his command.

With Shang Fang's sword in place, Su Dingfang felt that this time, he had no reason to fail.

"If the minister can't level Xiqiang, he will use this Shang Fang sword to kill himself to thank Junen!"

"I don't want your head, as long as you calm Xiqiang, it doesn't matter if you lose temporarily, I give you time!"
