Although Zhang Yan's question made Huang Zhong a little annoyed, it was not important, as long as he could still implement Huang Zhong's ideas at a minimum, then it would be good to leave the handling of it to Li Shushi.

The question that Huang Zhong is most concerned about now is what kind of impact the people of Bingzhou will have on the already chaotic Guanzhong shape shì when they set foot in Liangzhou this time.

Of course, this is not the first time that people from Bingzhou have set foot in Liangzhou.

Although the three counties of Hexi (Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang) can still pay a certain amount of tribute to the central court in Chang'an on time, the warlords of Liangzhou have lost their ability to control the area, and can only watch as the three counties gradually become rich in commerce and trade because of the Western Regions, but they have no ability to encroach at all.

This is naturally the masterpiece of the people of Namashu.

Because this was a win-win deal between the people of Bingzhou and Dong Zhuo, who was the spiritual leader of the people of Liangzhou, Dong Zhuo knew that he was obviously better at business than he was from Bingzhou, at least Li Shushi had proved that he had gradually established an economic system in Xihe where grassland and farming society coexisted.

Although that system is really fragile enough in Dong Zhuo's opinion, it has its unique attraction after all.

Leave the trade matter to the people of Bingzhou, and the people of Liangzhou will come to the matter of military deterrence, and then Dong Zhuo can harvest a richer Liangzhou, even if he no longer intends to go east to fight for hegemony in the world, it will be beneficial to Xiliang.

Therefore, even if Dong Zhuo has long been ancient, the three counties of Hexi still abide by the original agreement, so the rest of Dong Zhuojun, led by Li Guo and the others, also turned a blind eye to the existence of the people of Bingzhou.

After all, in addition to the poor management of those Liangzhou warlords themselves, the distant geographical location has somewhat dispelled the greedy desires of some jackals.

But this qiē is all the afterglow left by Dong Zhuo.

And the relationship between Xiliang and Bingzhou today is extremely delicate.

The people of Liangzhou are proud.

From "Dou Rong returns to Han". Although Liangzhou has not been able to produce many civilized Chinese literati, if it is about the prosperity of the army, it is also among the Eastern Han Dynasty. In Dong Zhuo's generation, with several major battles in Henan, the name of the first soldier in the world in Liangzhou was completely deserved.

The people of Liangzhou, who live in a harsh environment, know very well that they are just like their ancestors in the pre-Qin period, and the struggle against the harsh environment and countless alien races has wasted too much of their energy, and they really don't have much effort to learn the learning of those saints - even Jia Xu's children's shoes, who are full of poetry and books, will not encounter danger, but it is Duan Cheng's name as a "butcher" who saves his life.

Therefore, although the people of Liangzhou do not like the eyes of the Central Plains people towards the "barbarians", they can still enjoy themselves, and even laugh at the Central Plains people for not being strong enough. Unable to withstand the wind, frost and sand from the northwest. You can even laugh at those Central Plains people. No matter how many books he read, the six Kwantung countries of that year would not still be tied in front of Qiang Qin.

What a majesty it was, and it was extremely memorable.

But with Dong Zhuo's death, the Xiliang people found themselves unable to find a new leader to guide them in the direction they were heading.

Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu couldn't do it. Because he was just an ordinary general of the Xiliang Army. There is no domineering spirit on Dong Zhuo at all.

Dong Zhuo's other son-in-law, Li Ru, also couldn't do it. As a scholar, even though he has the courage not inferior to the Xiliang people, he is destined to be unable to convince those rebellious generals with eloquence without military power in his hands.

Dong Zhuo's most trusted generals, Li Dao and Guo Yan, couldn't do it, and the abilities of the two of them were certainly outstanding in the Xiliang Army. But they can't stand out from the crowd, and more importantly, under Dong Zhuo's "arrangement" in the past, the two of them have always appeared in the Xiliang Army in a similar position, and no one can subdue anyone, and no one is a little worse than the other.

Although the two of them joining forces have a strong appeal in the Xiliang army, the double-headed government is destined to be the most unsuccessful choice.

There is no need for too many people to instigate, Chang'an City and the civil, military, official, businessmen, and ordinary people in the city have become bargaining chips for the two of them to fight, and then consume their vitality in desperate battles again and again.

As for the rest, such as Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Hu Zhen, Yang Ding, Duan Xuan and the like, they are just people who go with the flow.

Ma Wan, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Yang Qiu, and the candidates are just rice grains in the world.

Maybe the personal combat power of the Xiliang soldiers is still strong, and maybe their cooperation in a small area is still tacit, but as the Xiliang Corps, which was once famous all over the world, it has already become a plate of scattered sand.

It's like the Hu tribes they once defeated.

On the other hand, in the Bingzhou Army, perhaps Li Shushi's personal charm may not be as good as Dong Zhuo, and his strength may not even be as good as those veterans of a hundred battles, let alone those strong generals, but with his efforts, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici ...... Such amazing and brilliant characters have rallied around him at some point, and they have similar goals, as Li Shushi's minions for him to drive.

As a result, they continued to create miracles—from Shan Yu of the Xianbei people to the regent of the Xianbei people, from the king of the Kushan Empire to the religious leader of the Sabbath Empire, from the northern grasslands to the deserts of the distant Western Regions......

When the Xiliang army was scattered, the Youzhou army was defeated and retreated under internal friction and external enemies, Ban Yuman had to face the continuous advance of Baihuyi, who had an official background behind him, and Danyang Qunhao threw himself into the command of different princes for the sake of interests, and the united state army seemed to have no opponent that could be compared.

Of course, it only seems on the surface, after all, some people have already felt the strength of their future opponents in advance.

However, the people of Xiliang would not know this, so their inner feelings at this time were quite subtle.

Obviously, one moment they were still standing on the top of the mountain, but the next moment, they had to be forcibly taken over, and the opponent they once overlooked climbed on top of them, and even could do whatever they wanton on top of their heads.

It's not a good feeling.

It's like the empire on which the sun never sets, how majestic and powerful, but after two world wars, it had to face the tough demands of China that they had beaten to take back the Hong Kong "concession". It's almost impossible to even get a debt if you want to.

This taste is really sour enough.

It is precisely because of this clear understanding that Huang Zhong will be so concerned about the attitude of the Xiliang people towards the annexation of the state into the Northland, even if Fuping County, the former seat of the Northland County, has long been abandoned, and even the name of Fuping has been lost with the relocation of the Northland County again, but compared to the three counties of Hexi, which are far away, the location of the Northland County is too close to Chang'an.

This is hard to guarantee that it will not stimulate the Xiliang people who have a "love and hate" for the people of Bingzhou.

In other words, whether it is Huang Zhong or Xun You, they are all mentally prepared for a full-scale war with the Xiliang people.

It's just that......

"It turns out that the chaos within the Xiliang Army has far exceeded our imagination......

Ten days later. Looking at the news in his hand from the various details that were ambushed in the Guanzhong area. Huang Zhong couldn't help but show a crying and laughing expression. And although Xun Yu beside him still had that calm look on his face, the action of constantly picking up the teacup and drinking still revealed his inner turmoil at this moment.

"Gongda, do you think this will be the other party's plan, in this way to let us let our guard down. Then the inside should be combined with the outside......"

Seems to have found a good reason for himself. Huang Zhong's voice seemed to become firm again.

Of course. This kind of behavior naturally made Xun You, who was beside him, show a little happy ♂ smile.

Well, middle-aged and elderly people selling cuteness or something are obviously not a taste that ordinary people can accept, Xun You, you are really unusual.

"This is indeed something to be prevented. But such as Li Kan, the candidate was originally born in Hedong. In the past, Dong Thief went to defect when he was assassinating the history of the state, although he had a lot of merit under Dong Thief, but it was rare to be reused because of his background. He already had a lot of complaints about the generals of Xiliang, and if he made good use of it, the resistance in the Li Zhou Mu Jing Pass would inevitably be reduced a lot. ”

"Isn't Gongda planning to play a 'Thousand Golden City Bone' in front of the generals in Guanzhong?"

"'Qianjin City Bone' also depends on the object, if Li Kan and the candidates are honest and obedient, Li Zhoumu will naturally not be slow. But if they have two hearts, this strategy will be 'driving the wolf and devouring the tiger', and whether they can survive depends on their luck. ”

Li Shushi originally planned to invade the northern land with partial divisions, on the one hand, he planned to expel the old land of the Han Dynasty, and on the other hand, he also planned to test the attitude of the generals of the Western Liang Army, so as to determine what attitude he would take towards this place in the future.

It's just that he, no, perhaps it should be said that most of the people in the Bingzhou army didn't expect that such a step, which seemed to be just a tentative attack, would cause such a huge "repercussion" in Xiliang - if it is not too surprising that Li Kan, a native of Hedong, and the candidate secretly sent someone to contact the "uprising", then the news that Fan Chou, who was intermediated by Zhang Ji and came from Yingchuan but was a general under Dong Zhuo, also planned to take refuge is definitely "shocking".

In fact, seriously speaking, Fan Chou is also not a native of Xiliang, he was born in Yingchuan in the hinterland of the Central Plains, if he is serious and elegant, he is also the founder of the Western Han Dynasty, and he is also a descendant of Fan Xu, who is the brother-in-law of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty.

Of course, the blood relationship between the two has long been estranged, and Fan Chou is an extremely inconspicuous member of the huge family of the Yingchuan Fan family - such a background obviously cannot make him a rich life in his youth, even if he studied in the private school opened by the family for a few years, but his greatest achievement in this area is estimated to be only a small official in the county.

Therefore, Fan Chou, who recognized his future, went to the northwest alone before he was even old enough to go to the northwest, and under a series of coincidences, he developed a skill, and also took refuge in Dong Zhuo, who was about to show his strength again after three years of filial piety.

Just like in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Yu said to Zhao Yun "Zilong has followed my brother for a long time, that is, my brother also", Fan Chou is a foreigner like Li Kan and the candidate, but he is not very old when he arrived in Xiliang, and the time he has followed Dong Zhuo far exceeds that of most generals in the Xiliang army.

Not to mention that after Dong Zhuo's death, although the most popular in the Xiliang Army were Li Dao and Guo Yan, if we talked about the second group that was slightly inferior to the two, then Zhang Ji and Fan Chou could definitely be regarded as the existence of this group that could not be ignored.

Because these two people were Dong Zhuo's confidants and favorite generals with Li Dao and Guo Yan during Dong Zhuo's lifetime, and they held the elite of the Xiliang Army second only to Li Guo and the others. The rest of the generations, such as Li Meng and Dong Cheng, were quite suppressed because they were unable to fight Li Dao and Dong Min with the same surname because of their background, and Duan Xuan and Yang Ding's disciples were all semi-free from Dong Zhuojun at the beginning. Not a confidant.

If Zhang Ji's status is partly due to his nephew Zhang Xiu, who is now thriving in the Bingzhou army, then Fan Chou is completely due to his real merits and abilities.

There are people who have nothing to do once compared the abilities of the four most popular generals around Dong Zhuo - Zhang Ji is the most stable, and can guard the city pass without the enemy an inch; Fan Chou is the most courageous, he must fight hard in every battle, and he is the first to enter the battle, and he was the best candidate for the vanguard in Dong Zhuo's army; Li Dao and Guo Yan are good at commanding troops, and they are also brave in battle, although the Flying Bear Army commanded by the two of them cannot be compared with Dong Zhuo's personal leadership, it is difficult for an army to stop them without paying a huge price.

From this, it can be known that although Fan Chou is just a fierce general who is good at charging into battle. But as long as such a character survives, he must have a lot of credit. Second, in an environment like Xiliang, Fan Chou, a fierce general, is even more likely to be worshiped by ordinary soldiers than Li Dao and Guo Yan, and those soldiers who have a ferocious factor in their bones have an almost obsessive pursuit of power.

From this, we can know what Fan Chou's prestige status is in the Xiliang army.

Of course, you can also guess what kind of suspicion such a person will receive from the increasingly arrogant Li Dao Guo Yan.

Not to mention that because they were both born in Yingchuan, they all came to Liangzhou to seek life and make a career. Fan Chou has a close relationship with Han Sui, who was the "careerist" that Dong Zhuo feared the most in Liangzhou. Especially during the honeymoon period of Dong Han and Donghan. Fan Chou often exchanged letters and gifts with Han Sui. Although the two of them did not say anything further, it was inevitable that people with intentions would have thoughts such as "Fan Chou learns from Zhang Ji and seeks help from external forces to improve his status".

So today, Han Sui has been designated as a "rebel". Fan Chou is destined to pay for his original behavior.

"Because I felt the persecution from Li Guo in Chang'an, did you finally make up your mind to join us?"

Fingers made constant contact with the desk, making rhythmic tapping sounds, but everyone in the room didn't care about what sounded a little annoying, because all their energy was now immersed in some piece of information.

It was roughly the same thing as the information in Huang Zhong's hand, but it seemed to be more detailed than the one in Huang Zhong's hand.

This is also normal, because this intelligence not only contains various information related to the main content, but also some relevant comments with a certain personal color attached to the intelligence, among which there are naturally Huang Zhong and Xun You's Jianyì.

Compared with Li Kanhe and the candidates, Fan Chou is an important chess piece that can stir up Guanzhong, so Huang Zhong has enough power to make decisions on the fly for the former, and only Li Shushi can make the final decision on how to deal with the latter.

Of course, you can also think that the first two are just small roles with no important official positions, and Fan Chou is at least a right general, Wan Nian Hou, even if this general and the county marquis are obtained by blackmailing the emperor, but they are also the emperor's royal mouth, unless the emperor decrees to abolish or abolish the emperor himself, otherwise legally speaking, it is also a big man.

Judging from the news from all sides, now rumors are spreading in Chang'an, Li Guo and the others have killed them, and they are at the end of their rope. Looking around, apart from us, who would dare to accept him at the cost of Li Guo's anger. ”

Cheng Yu had an extremely confident smile on his face, and the taste in his words was even more categorical.

Unlike Huang Zhong and Xun You, who were only speculating about the reasons for Fan Chou's "surrender", several wise people in the Governor's Mansion already knew the reasons for Fan Chou's move, after all, many of them were originally their plans.

Now that the cultivation is fruitful, it happened to catch up with Li Shushi's tentative action, and there are coincidences, more because this action made Fan Chou, who originally thought that the Merge State Army and the Xiliang Army might "not interfere with the river water", understand the ambition of Merge State, so that the seeds that had already germinated in his heart finally bore fruitful results.

"Now there are Fan Chou, Li Kan, and candidates for internal response, Hanyang County for foreign aid, and the three counties in the northwest are ready to go. My lord, what we planned before may be triggered in advance. ”

It is rare that Cheng Yu, who said this, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Yan Zhong and others who heard this sentence all smiled.

And Li Shushi, who was sitting in the main seat, also showed a slightly unnatural smile at the same time.

It's just that soon, after taking a deep breath, Li Shu nodded pragmatically.

At this point, I should be ready to take on that.

I don't know how long it took, but the originally embarrassing smile on my face gradually turned into a smile full of ideal anticipation.

Plan to pass!

Li Shushi naturally couldn't hear this roar from everyone's heart, otherwise...... Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do anything, and the public would be angry.

So, before everyone could react, a monstrous wave had already formed in the state governor's mansion, and the enemy pointed by this monstrous wave still seemed to be completely unaware at this moment, still doing what he had been doing.

Until......

"General, it's not good, it's not good! It's not a good thing!! ”

"What's the panic, what's wrong, could it be that Guo Aduo (Li Zhiran) led the troops to call!"

"It's coming, it's coming, it's all coming!!"

"Tell me what the hell is going on! What called! The owner of the voice also seemed to be infected, and there was a bit of uneasy apprehension in his voice.

"Fan Chou led a total of 50,000 people from the Huaxiong Division of the Bingzhou Army to the south along Jingshui, and had already reached the area of Zuo Fengyi Gukou, approaching Chiyang. Zhang Ji led 20,000 troops and had captured Wuguan. Zhang Xiu in the east of the river led the troops to Wanwu, crossed the river from Pusaka, and had already taken Linjin City. The main force of 50,000 people of the Bingzhou army, led by Lu Bu, has already forced the landing of Hongnong Duan Xuan, and is taking Duan Xuan's troops as the lead and coming straight to Zheng County. The rest of Li Kan, the candidates and the soldiers of Hanyang and the soldiers of the three counties of Hexi and the tens of thousands of Hu cavalry of the subject countries, Wuwei and Anding counties are already in danger......"

"Also, is there ......?"

"Dong Cheng, Wei Xu and other departments in the city also took the opportunity to cause chaos and wanted to steal His Majesty and hundreds of officials out of the city."

"Babble, babble!! It's really infuriating to me! Li Xuexiao, I am inseparable from you!! ”

Pan Sen: The journey of full-time struggle has officially begun now~ It's a little apprehensive to think about it...... (To be continued......)
