Jincheng, the land where Xue Ju is king, has developed to 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the Xue family is a wealthy family in the northwest, and has absorbed many heroes from the northwest to join. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xue Ju proclaimed himself the overlord of Western Qin, and after the founding name was Qin Xing, Xue Rengao was named the Duke of Qi, and his youngest son Xue Renyue was the Duke of Jin. Elsewhere, the thief Kou Zong Luo Hu led his people to join and was named the Duke of Yixing County.

With the expansion of soldiers and horses, recruiting bandits, plundering officials and horses, the soldiers were very sharp, and the cities were captured everywhere.

A few days ago, the Sui general Huangfu Ju led 30,000 troops to garrison Caohan, and Xue Ju selected 20,000 elite soldiers to attack and met Huangfu Huang in Chi'an.

Xue Ju with his bravery and domineering, with 20,000 elite soldiers, defeated head-on, the regular army of the imperial court led by the tiger general Huangfu Juan, the Huangfu Juan's army was defeated and fled, Xue Ju took advantage of the situation to capture Caohan County, and the minority Qiang Zhong Lishu of Minshan led 20,000 people to surrender, making the Western Qin regime stronger.

However, after learning that Li Liang had lost Wuwei County and that Xiping County had changed hands and become Luo Cheng's territory, he began to be anxious and worried, and he had been hesitating whether to fight with this winning young marshal Luo Cheng to the death.

Although he really wanted to lead his troops to kill Luo Cheng, the opponent's winning record made Xue Ju also a little jealous.

"Do you think we should fight Luo Cheng to the death?" Xue Ju asked some Wenchen staff and generals to lead the troops, but everyone was silent, looked at each other, looked embarrassed, and was a little afraid of Luo Cheng's reputation.

Because of the past ten years, this young general often has amazing achievements, which are spread abroad, and the imperial court regarded him as a lucky general at that time, and he was hyped and exaggerated, causing officers and generals everywhere to have an instinctive timidity towards Luo Cheng.

Seeing that no one was talking, Zong Luohu couldn't help but choke: "What is there to be afraid of, do it to the bird, fight with him, Luo Cheng is a young general, how powerful he can be, I don't believe it." ”

Xue Rengao is also a person with relatively big nerves, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he has been instructed by a famous teacher, and his martial arts are outstanding, and he is used to being a little overlord in the northwest, and he is also angry with Luo Cheng: "Xiao Wang has long been preparing to meet Luo Cheng for a while, father, it is better to count 30,000 horses for me, and I will go and get Luo Cheng's head." ”

Everyone looked sideways, thinking that this Xue Dagongzi's courage was commendable, but he was a little too arrogant.

Xue Ju glanced at his eldest son, and frowned secretly, knowing that his son was better than his father, he also found that the eldest son acted recklessly, although he was domineering, but he was too underestimated to be the heroes of the world, leading troops to fight, courage and self-confidence are not enough, soldiers are treacherous, yang conspiracy and conspiracy are mixed, and if you don't use your brain, you are likely to fall into a trap and be wiped out.

However, he saw that the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs did not speak, and his face was a little unsightly, with a little gloomy.

At this time, Chu Liang, who served as the waiter of the Yellow Gate, said: "Qiyu Overlord, if it is a head-on enemy, this Luo Cheng may not be afraid, in terms of bravery, the overlord and the Duke of Qi, martial arts will not be weaker than him, but Luo Cheng is good at using tactics, using soldiers like gods, in the past ten years, dozens of battles large and small, fighting the Turks, pacifying the rebellion of the Han King, eliminating Tuyuhun, conquering Liaodong, eliminating the Northern Qi restoration regime, has not failed, so we can't underestimate this person's strategy, we should be careful." ”

Xue Ju nodded slowly and said: "What Chu Shilang said is quite reasonable, if it is one-on-one, why be afraid of Luo Cheng, but this person is cunning and has to be sent, this king has decided to temporarily follow Li Liang, retreat to the east, and press the heavy troops to the Guannei, these remote and cold places in the northwest are mostly deserts, mountains, and sparsely populated, we have to go to seize more fertile land, more prosperous Chengyi, and grab bigger territory, more women and treasures." ”

"Push east?" The generals were a little surprised.

Xue Ju was firm in his opinion, and said loudly: "Yes, we have to conquer Huichuan County, Longxi County, Pingliang Army, and Tianshui County to the east, where the place is several times better than the border here, there is no need to fight with Luo Cheng so early, we take Tianshui County, but we must be there, approaching Fufeng and Jingzhao County in the hinterland of Guanlong, maybe, we can still enter Xijing, which is much stronger than in the cold land in the northwest." ”

After listening to the overlord of Western Qin, the ministers immediately talked about it, and their expressions showed joy, so that they don't have to fight with Luo Cheng, but they can also get more and greater benefits, why not?

Xue Rengao said: "Father, could it be that Jincheng County just gave up and gave it to Luo Cheng?" ”

Xue Ju said: "Who said to give up? If you want to hit Jincheng, you must pass through Caohan County in the southwest, where there are Tangshu Mountain and Imjin Pass to block it, from Caohan County to Jincheng County, and the old Great Wall of Qin. If you go to the northwest, you must pass through Wuwei County, cross three rivers, pass through Jincheng Pass, as long as you send tens of thousands of people to defend it, Luo Cheng will fight over, and at the same time, Li Liang's soldiers and horses are watching behind him, causing him a certain threat. ”

"We can take this opportunity to seize the counties of Guanlong, and incorporate the rebels, mountain bandits, green forest heroes, and high-ranking families there, maybe we can enter Xijing before Li Yuan, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes."

Chu Liang is also proficient in resourcefulness, and after thinking carefully about Xue Ju's proposal, he agreed, whoever enters Xijing first will have a big advantage.

Everyone understands in their hearts that Xue Ju, the overlord of Western Qin, has the strong support of the Xue clan in the northwest, he is strong in martial arts, and he also knows a little about the art of war and strategy, which is much stronger than the straw bag Qi Gong.

"The overlord is wise, the country is domineering, it must be good!" Quite a few people chimed in.

Xue Rengao said: "Father, the son is willing to stay and guard, and he will be Na Luo Cheng for a while." ”

Xue Ju glared at him, and said in his heart: Do you stay and look for death? His face sank, and he snorted coldly: "Jincheng County, hand it over to Qiang Zhong Lishu to lead the people to stay, this king still has an extra task for you, attack the city and the village, and make contributions to my Western Qin." ”
