After Zhong Lixuan finished talking about his brother, he sent people to Huangshui City in Xiping County, sent intelligence, and wrote the defense checkpoints and garrisons along the way into the information. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When Luo Zhaoyun got the information a few days later, he was very happy, with this information, the northwest of Jincheng County was transparent.

The special forces sent to the blood leopard, the wolf warrior, and the tiger tooth squad, in full accordance with the training and actual combat of the special forces of later generations, set off first, to clear the defenders and checkpoints along the way, and then make the vanguard army behind quickly approach, all the way unblocked.

Half a day after the special operations team set off, Xue Wanqian set off with 3,000 elites.

From Huangshui City to Jincheng, there are more than 300 miles, passing through several mountains and barren hills, some must pass through the passes, with camps, arrow towers, etc., a little garrison.

If you want to take it in one fell swoop, you can only sneak attack, but some of these checkpoints are guarded by Zhong Liqiang's people, so they directly defected, let the Sui army pass, and turned around and followed the Sui army back to Jincheng.

These commanders also got inside information that the rulers of the Western Qin Dynasty did not regard them as subjects at all, but were just abandoned chess pieces, and their orphans, widows, family members and children were supervised by the Western Qin army and made hostages in case the Qiang people did not try their best to resist.

In this way, it lost the hearts of the people and backfired, and two days later, the 3,000 men and horses led by Xue Wancheng had been pushed to the mountains fifty miles outside Jincheng.

The speed of this siege was fast enough that there was not much resistance at all along the way, killing two thousand enemies, and the rest surrendered three thousand, without resistance.

"All pay attention, march at night, approach Jincheng, and then wait for the signal in the city!" After Xue Wancheng confessed to the captain, captain, and centurion, he sent scouts to send the news back to Guo Xiaoke's department, who followed up, and the cavalry pressed in.

As for Hou Junji, he was sent by Luo Zhaoyun to Caohan County, and completely annexed all the counties and counties in the western borderlands, except for Longyou.

Waiting for the six counties in hand, Li Jing conquered Zhangye, Dunhuang and other counties again, occupied the Hexi Corridor, and the entire west of the Great Sui Longyou was blocked by Luo Zhaoyun, he could continue to grow here, consolidate his power, do business and govern the people, and appease some small tribes, so that these people can live a life of food and clothing, no longer hungry, no longer bullied, and displaced, he can accumulate huge military strength.

In all dynasties, because of the terrain, it was easier for the army to conquer from west to east, and the road would become smoother and smoother, and it would be more and more difficult to fight from east to west.

Luo Zhaoyun's layout is like collecting the net, first blocking the two ends, and then like catching turtles in an urn, it is more like raising Gu, letting them kill each other, and finally cleaning up a few big heads, so that he doesn't have to fight in the east and west, extinguishing fires everywhere, but dragging his own strength scattered and collapsed.

That night, Zhong Li wanted to summon a few henchmen in the mansion, and according to his brother's plan, he invited several Western Qin leaders in the city to a banquet, saying that he would contribute a few beautiful young girls to give them concubines, get closer to each other, and take care of each other in Jincheng in the future, even if someone takes a fancy to his little daughter, it is not impossible to recruit a son-in-law.

Of the two generals who stayed in Jincheng, one was a member of the Xue family's side branch called Xue Yong, the other was called He Kui, and the rest of the military attachés, as well as four captains, who were not too big generals, and six of them were invited to the mansion for a banquet.

Zhong Li wanted to entertain with high-quality wine, and also sent many pretty women in the clan to dance to help the fun, and before the final round of selection of virgin girls of the Qiang tribe, these people all fell unconscious on the wine table.

At this time, Zhong Lixuan walked out, looked at the six Western Qin military attachés, and sneered.

Zhong Li wanted to rub his hands and said excitedly: "Brother, your strategy is too clever, and you control them without blood!" ”

Zhong Lixuan said: "They have tokens on them, send people to hold the tokens, and then go to change shifts, in addition to all the city gates are replaced by our people, and go to branch out the soldiers and horses who guard the residential areas of the Qiang Department, and wait for the elite soldiers of the Sui army outside the city to enter the city, and the elder brother will lead people to kill directly to the Western Qin military camp." ”

Zhong Li wanted to ask: "What about these people?" ”

Zhong Lixuan glanced at it and said: "Kill the two generals, otherwise, they will survive and hold a grudge, which will be unfavorable to us in the future. ”

Zhong Lixiang shook his head and said: "It's better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, once they are forgiven and continue to surrender to the Sui army, won't they want to target our Qiang Department in the future and avenge today's revenge, we can't give them this opportunity, the clansmen have encountered too many difficulties, and they really can't withstand the blow." ”

Zhong Lixuan sighed: "That's okay, what the Sui army cares about is capturing the city and killing a few Western Qin generals, no one cares." ”

"Ah Xuan, you say, if we make this great contribution, the city will turn against us, and give such a big gift to Young Marshal Luo, will there be a reward?"

Zhong Lixuan lowered his voice and said: "Brother, don't be greedy for merit, we are on the verge of defection, although for the young marshal, it is welcome now, but morally, after all, there is a suspicion of a traitor, this kind of identity, anyone will be wary and distrustful, so, after the defection has passed, we must not be greedy for merit, just complain, saying that we were suppressed by Tubo at the beginning, there is no way, I saw Xue raise troops, I came to take refuge, and now I know the British master, I must abandon the darkness and turn to the light, do not seek credit, only ask for the stability of the clan, say it like this, the young marshal values character, It will definitely not treat our Qiang people and our brothers badly. ”

After listening, Zhong Lixiang nodded slightly, and understood what his younger brother meant, don't talk too much, give people a selfish character, and no one will pay attention to it.

"I understand, Ah Xuan, you still have brains and can calculate, if you were the patriarch back then, maybe you would bring better development to the Minshan Qiang tribe."

Zhong Lixuan said: "Brother, the young marshal has an unlimited future, and he is the king and hegemon, all in his thoughts, we follow him, and in the future, the land of Bashu will be chosen by our Minshan Qiang Department to live a rich life." ”

Zhong Li wanted to nod, and he also knew that Luo Cheng's prestige was definitely not something in the pool.

At this time, there was a shout of killing at the city gate, and the Sui army began to attack the city at night.
