Seeing that the two-month period of the agreement with Lu Bu was about to expire, Qin Hua was ready to continue to launch a feint attack on Tongguan, otherwise he might be criticized by the world.

At this time, Lu Bu came to Tongguan again and sent a letter to Qin Hua, demanding that Qin Hua withdraw immediately.

Of course, Qin Hua was dismissive of this request, even though Lu Bu's letter mentioned that he had brought an army of 50,000 this time.

Although Qin Hua thinks that he is not Lu Bu's opponent alone, but in the army war, he has absolute confidence in the Liangzhou army, this is not the kind of temporarily recruited army of the princes' alliance, the Liangzhou army has expeditions to the Western Regions, fought the Qiang people, and also fought with the Xianbei people, plus Qin Hua's military reform, it can be called a qualified regular army.

Just when Qin Hua was about to have a good battle with Lu Bu, Jia Xu, who was supposed to accompany Zhang Liao to crusade against the state, suddenly appeared in Qin Hua's military camp.

"Don't be rash."

Qin Hua originally wanted to discuss with Jia Xu how to give Lu Bu a dismissal, but he heard Jia Xu's words.

"Xu has received a report from Nighthawk, and as far as I can see, the lord is not Dong Zhuo's opponent."

Jia Xu's second sentence calmed Qin Hua down, and the result of his own analysis was the same, at this time, Dong Zhuojun's military strength was too strong after absorbing the Northern Army of the Great Han Dynasty, and it was not at all something that Qin Hua could resist.

It's just that Dong Zhuo's main force is now contained by the alliance of princes, can't he still defeat the 50,000 troops under Lu Bu?

"Let me ask the lord, what is the intention of the lord to attack Dong Zhuo?"

"Naturally, it is to support the Han family and crusade against the rebellious ministers."

Qin Hua said without thinking, even Jia Xu couldn't say what he really thought.

"So naturally, the soldiers of Liangzhou should be poured to fight against Dong Zhuo, so if it is assumed that the lord only wants to strengthen himself in this war, then there is no need to continue to fight Dong Zhuo."

What do you mean? If I retire and return to Liangzhou, won't the people of the world laugh at me? ”

Qin Hua did not discuss the truth of his hypothesis with Jia Xu, but directly followed Jia Xu's words.

"The lord poured the troops of Liangzhou to fight Dong, and he conquered several counties in Liangzhou, compared to the alliance of princes who stopped at the Tiger Prison, the lord's contribution to the Han Dynasty was much greater, and who dared to laugh at the lord?"

"So the military advisor means to retire?"

"Yes, I don't think Dong Zhuo sent Lu Bu to the big head this time to fight with the lord, they probably wanted to leave Luoyang and go to Chang'an, so they sent Lu Bu here."

"Burn Luoyang?"

Qin Hua immediately thought of this, but he didn't say it, it's better not to let people know about this kind of thing that knows the development of history.

"Chang'an is surrounded by Weishui and Qinling Mountains, and there are all passes to defend, I think Dong Zhuo will inevitably retreat to Chang'an, so that the coalition forces will be in chaos. And the leaders of the coalition forces have their own concerns, and they will inevitably not last, and Dong Zhuo will be able to defend the pass safely. ”

Qin Hua didn't expect that Jia Xu would be able to analyze so many things with the help of Nighthawk's not rich intelligence, he knew the historical process, and Jia Xu could actually deduce that Dong Zhuo would move the capital to Chang'an with just a little news, and that the princes' alliance would also mess with themselves.

"What does the military advisor think I should do?"

"Into Shu."

Jia Xu's words shocked Qin Hua, which was completely different from the development route he had thought before.

Qin Hua knows the progress of history, Dong Zhuo will inevitably perish later, although Xiu'er was given to him by Wang Yun, but I think that Wang Yun will find other ways to kill Dong Zhuo, and when Dong Zhuo's army falls apart, he will be able to take advantage of the situation to take Chang'an and occupy the land of Sanfu.

During the period when the princes of the Central Plains were vying for hegemony, Qin Hua was able to encroach on these forces one by one, and finally replaced Cao Cao and unified the north.

In the end, it was only necessary to lay down Jiangdong and Shudi, which was almost to develop according to Cao Cao's line, but now Jia Xu's views are very different from his own.

"Although there are not too many soldiers and horses in the land of Yizhou, it is difficult to move in Shu, and I can't easily attack Yizhou, this is the land of Liu Yan, the ancestor of the Han family, if it is attacked by the crowd of people all over the world, the gains will outweigh the losses."

Qin Hua knew that the reputation of the Han Dynasty was heavy, and if he raised unrighteous soldiers and was thought to be usurping the Han, he would be in trouble at that time.

"Don't worry, my lord, there are many excuses for attacking Yizhou, such as the crusade against Dong Zhuo this time. Liu Yan, as a relative of the Han family, not only did he not send troops, but he also did not see a single inch of grain and grass, which was enough for the lord to crusade against Yizhou. ”

Speaking of this, Jia Xu paused, seemed to have a dry mouth, picked up the cup and took a sip, but Qin Hua on the side was in a hurry.

"The military advisor is going to say it quickly."

"Hehe, don't worry, lord."

Putting down the cup, Jia Xu continued: "What's more, the lord doesn't need to attack Yizhou at this time, we can attack Zhang Lu first. ”

"Zhang Lu? Is that the one who has been engaged in the Five Bucket Rice Sect? ”

"Yes, Zhang Lu's Wudoumi Sect has many followers, and Liu Yan is deeply jealous, and several attacks have been in vain. The lord can go to the court, this five buckets of rice religion is like the Taiping Dao, all of them are evil cults, so that they can enter the Han Dynasty justifiably, and Liu Yan will welcome the lord when he comes. ”

"It's just that the population of the world is in the Central Plains, why do I have to mobilize the people to Yizhou?"

Jia Xu looked at Qin Hua like an idiot and said: "Shu is a land of grain and grass, back then, the Qin State was able to defeat the powerful Zhao State after obtaining the Shu land, how can it be done only if the population has no grain and grass?" Didn't the lord forget the cause of the Yellow Turban Rebellion? ”

Hearing Jia Xu say that Qin State defeated Zhao State because he got Shu Land, Qin Hua immediately made up his mind.

Since his goal is to restore Great Qin, it seems that it is not bad to follow the route of the Qin State, and what Jia Xu said is very reasonable, grain and grass are the core of the army, and if there is no grain and grass, no matter how many troops are useless.

Qin Hua was also limited by grain and grass, so he only formed a force of 100,000 people, and if there was enough grain and grass, he even wanted to pull up a team of 200,000 people.

"Then why don't you continue to attack and merge states?"

"Bingzhou is mixed with a large number of Huns, Di people, Xianbei people, Wuhuan people, if the lord wants to completely occupy Bingzhou, then the battle after that is no less than the attack on Yizhou, and there is also a force called the Yellow Turban in Montenegro, and their leader Zhang Yan is also a hero."

When governing Liangzhou, Qin Hua felt a headache, most of the Qiang and Di people here have been sinicized, if you go to govern a more multi-ethnic state, it will really be dragged in the state.

"Zhang Yan should leave it to Yuan Shao to fight. We continue to discuss the matter of entering Shu. ”

Qin Hua's words made Jia Xu's brows move slightly, but he didn't show anything unusual, and continued to discuss with Jia Xu about entering Shu.
