Chapter 263: Layout

Ma Chao thought about it and agreed, and then told Liu Wei the specific situation.

After Liu Wei listened, he didn't say anything, but asked Ma Chao to prepare, and he would lead the army to set off tomorrow.

After Ma Chao left, Liu Wei called Xun You, Xi Zhicai and others over to discuss the matter of sending troops to Xiliang.

This Xiliang disturbance was mainly a rebellion of the Xiqiang, and they directly captured Jincheng, which was the strength of the Qiang people.

At the same time, it is also Han Sui's sphere of influence, according to Ma Chao.

The people who instigated Xiqiang's rebellion this time were Bian Zhang, the descendants of Beigong Boyu, who rebelled in the name of crusading against Han Sui.

Han Sui asked Ma Teng for help, which led to the current scene of asking for help, and the war was unfavorable.

Regarding Bian Zhang and Beigong Boyu, Liu Wei is clearer.

In 184 A.D., the first Lingqiang of Beidi County and the group of thieves of Caohan County rebelled, supported the Qiang Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou as the general, and killed Leng Zheng, the captain of the Qiang Guard. Later, Boyu and Li Wenhou hijacked Bian Zhang and Han Sui, the Han people of Jincheng.

Because the two of them are quite prestigious, they were dragged into the gang, and they also became the leaders of them, and the power of the two continued to grow in the continuous merger.

Bian Zhang, Han Sui, even in the second year of Zhongping, that is, in 185 AD, sent troops to Sanfu to invade Yuanling.

The momentum was huge, and in the end, it was Dong Zhuo and Zhang Wen, as well as Zhou Shen and others who broke Han Sui and Bian Zhang's troops in Qiangyang.

And Dong Zhuo was appreciated by the imperial court precisely because of this merit.

After the defeat of Han Sui and Bian Zhang, they temporarily retreated, but in 186 AD, that is, in the third year of Zhongping.

There was a rebellion within the Qiang people, and Han Sui took advantage of this opportunity to kill Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou.

and killed Bian Zhang, who was originally hijacked like him and was also a Han Chinese, for the purpose of naturally being the soldiers and horses and territory in the hands of the three people.

However, Han Sui didn't seem to have any luck, or strength, and soon returned with another big defeat.

Han Sui's perseverance in rebellion resulted in being defeated by Dong Zhuo again and again, and Dong Zhuo's strength increased greatly when he countered the rebellion again and again, and finally became ambitious and embarked on a road of being abused.

If it weren't for this, in fact, Dong Zhuo's defense of Xiliang could also be regarded as an outstanding military achievement, and he belonged to the generals of the late Han Dynasty.

Later, after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, in order to win over Han Sui, he gave him an official position, which can be regarded as turning him from a rebel into a government army.

This Xiqiang rebellion was a treacherous crusade against Han Sui in the name of Beigong Boyu and Bian Zhang.

has the reputation of Beigong Boyu, the Qiang people in Xiqiang have the name of cohesion and support, and in the name of Bian Zhang, they can win over those Han people who are dissatisfied with Han Sui, or who are ambitious.

It is precisely because of this that the Xiqiang rebellion this time is also huge, so Han Sui was defeated and invited Ma Teng to help.

However, it was still impossible to suppress the Xiqiang rebellion, so Ma Teng wrote a letter to Ma Chao.

wants Ma Chao to go back to help, after all, Ma Chao is good at martial arts.

"Your Majesty, this Han Sui is capricious, this time to help, I am afraid that Han Sui will also rebel in the future." Xun You looked at Liu Wei and suggested.

Regarding Han Sui's affairs, he also knew a lot, so he opened his mouth to advise.

Liu Wei nodded, of course he knew that Han Sui was not a good thing, you must know that Ma Teng and Han Sui formed an alliance and were called brothers.

But later, Han Sui still killed Ma Teng's wife, and the relationship between the two broke down and continued to fight.

It can be seen that Han Sui is not a peaceful person, on the contrary, Ma Teng can be regarded as having some Qiang blood.

In the early stage, he followed Han Sui and took the opportunity to make trouble many times, but after being pacified, he was divided, and the land under his jurisdiction was also kind to the people and was loved by the people.

So this time the army was not for Han Sui, but for Ma Teng.

At the same time, he also took this opportunity to extend his power to Xiliang and Sanfu.

After all, relying on others is not a long-term solution after all, but if you can take advantage of this rebellion, in the name of the imperial court, you can control the land of Xiliang and Sanfu.

Then you can justifiably control Han Sui and Ma Teng, and once there is a change, you can also justifiably quell the rebellion.

Now although he has the name of the emperor, Han Sui and Ma Teng are also official positions in the imperial court, but everything speaks with strength.

This time there was an opportunity for the Xiqiang rebellion, which just helped me to meddle in the affairs of Xiliang.

"Your Majesty's move is indeed a good policy, but Liangzhou is far away from Bingzhou, and there are many inconveniences in sending troops this time."

After Xi Zhicai understood Liu Wei's thoughts, he frowned and said.

"Although this is a problem, I also have a plan, this time I will march to Xiliang to quell the rebellion, and I will only bring 5,000 dragon warriors to go."

After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Liu Wei said that he naturally had something to consider.

The Longwu Army is a cavalry, and on the way to the march, the speed will be much faster, and the five thousand Longwu Army is not much in terms of numbers.

In this way, it will not make Han Sui too sensitive and disgusted.

Now that the Long Wu Army has been training for a while, it is just a good time to use this battle with Xiqiang to test the effect.

After all, in addition to the training of the best army, the elimination of the battlefield is also indispensable.

Moreover, the Qiang people also happened to be mainly cavalry combat, and this time they just tried the results of the Longwu Army.

"Your Majesty led the Longwu army to go, so I don't know which generals went with the army?"

Xun You asked after listening to Liu Bian's words, and at this time he also understood that Liu Bian had already planned everything.

Therefore, it is impossible to stop Liu Wei, and Liu Wei's analysis is not unreasonable.

If you don't take the opportunity to settle Liangzhou now, it will be even more difficult to deal with Cao Cao when their relationship with them is even worse.

"This time, Zilong and Hua Xiong can go out with me."

Liu Wei immediately said that he had already made arrangements for the candidate.

This Long Wujun was originally Zhao Yun in charge of training, and it was understandable for him to go, and he could also take the opportunity to match him and Ma Yunluo.

Hua Xiong had been following Dong Zhuo before, Dong Zhuo had a lot of prestige in Xiliang before, even in the hearts of Qiang people.

And with Huaxiong here, he is naturally familiar with a lot.

After all the discussions were completed, the next day, Liu Wei and Zhao Yun and Ma Chao led an army of 5,000 dragon warriors to Liangzhou.

However, Huaxiong is coming from Youzhou, which will take a certain amount of time.

When the army marched to Liangzhou, Ma Yunluo changed back into men's clothes, which was convenient in her own words.

Along the way, with Long Wujun as the topic, the communication between Ma Yunluo and Zhao Yun also became more.

Although it seems to be just an ordinary exchange, Liu Wei knows that from the current point of view, Zhao Yun and Ma Yun have a play.

It was already the time when the army set off to the boundary of Yongzhou, and Hua Xiong caught up with the pace.

And in Hua Xiong's words, this is still the result of his struggle to catch up.

With the arrival of Hua Xiong, the speed of Liu Wei and his party accelerated again.

After all, you have to pass Yongzhou before you can enter Liangzhou.

At this time, outside Jincheng, Ma Teng and Han Sui had already received a letter from Ma Chao, and Liu Wei personally led the troops to come to the rescue.

"I didn't expect that Your Majesty would personally lead the troops to come to the rescue." After reading the letter, Ma Teng said with some surprise.

"Hmph. I don't think this Han Emperor has any good intentions, this time he borrowed the Xiqiang Rebellion, I'm afraid that he came to you and me? ”

After hearing this, Han Sui said very unhappily.

Obviously, he was very reluctant to lead Liu Wei to come.

"In my opinion, I'm afraid it's your heart, Pang Shiyuan came before, and was sent by us, and I sent Chao'er to go, how could Your Majesty be like this?"

Ma Teng looked at Han Sui and said with a smile, in his opinion, it would be too unwise for him to show favor at this time, and Liu Wei would still deal with him.

"Really?" Han Sui asked lukewarmly.

"Shoucheng, you have a good calculation, and now you are already starting to make friends with Emperor Han."

Han Sui looked at Ma Teng and continued to speak, but when he said this, he was already displeased.

"Mo Duoxin, you and I are brothers of the opposite sex, this time I befriended Your Majesty, how can you and I divide each other?"

Ma Teng naturally knew Han Sui's displeasure and immediately spoke.

"I hope so, I wonder how many people Your Majesty will lead this time?" Han Sui asked again.

"Five thousand cavalry." Ma Teng replied.

"Only five thousand centaurs?" After hearing this number, Han Sui was overjoyed, and then reconfirmed.
