Cheng Gongying immediately remembered that Beigong Jiyu and Beigong Boyu had a deep brotherhood, and because they had no children under their knees, they loved Beigong Hu, Beigong Hong, and Beigong Jiyue very much, as if they were their own sons.

At the moment, the three relatives and children were killed on the battlefield, and there is nothing worse in life than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person.

Cheng Gongying's eyes lit up, and he looked at Beigong Jiyu through to the north, the Qiang people have courage and no strategy, and they have always been the last tool to use. Beigong Boyu is the best example back then!

"Eh, the patriarch of Beigong mourns. To be honest, this article is extraordinary, eloquent, strategic, and the generals under his command are all famous and brave generals in the world. This time, an army of 80,000 troops to attack Liangzhou is inevitable. This time, because he failed to hinder Wen Bufan's march, with Qing Shui's only 20,000 troops, it was impossible to resist Wen Bufan's 80,000 male soldiers.

Once Qing Shui falls into the hands of Wen Bufan, he will have a base in Liangzhou, where he can attack and retreat. On the contrary, our situation was not stable, the troops and horses were not well prepared, and the fighters were lost first. The current battle situation is very unfavorable to our side, and Cheng and General Ma have nothing to do about it! ”

Cheng Gongying's words can be said to be that he will be angry with others to destroy his prestige. Ma Chao frowned when he heard this, and wanted to refute it several times, but was blocked by Cheng Gongying secretly with his eyes.

"Erma's three nephews all died at the hands of Wen Bufan's generals, if he can't avenge his blood hatred, how can he face Erma's big brother under the nine springs!"

Beigong Ji Yu heard that his old body trembled, and his face was full of grief and hatred. Maybe it's because seeing that blood revenge is difficult to avenge, Beigong Jiyu is even more crazy, Cheng Gongying sees it in his eyes, but he is overjoyed in his heart.

"Although Wen Bufan is an evil tiger in the world, he is not invincible. If the patriarch of Beigong wants to take revenge, it is not impossible. I'm afraid that the patriarch of Beigong won't dare to fight! ”

Cheng Gongying squinted his eyes, and suddenly his words changed. Beigong Jiyu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw when he was drowning, and grabbed Cheng Gongying and asked urgently.

"If you can take revenge, even if you want Erma's old life, Erma will dare to fight!"

Watching Beigong Jiyu fall into the trap he had set step by step, Cheng Gongying's eyes flashed, and his tone was slow and methodical, not in a hurry.

"The patriarch of Beigong is the head of the clan, how can it be lost. Patriarch of Beigong, if you want to avenge the great revenge, why not pour the strength of the Xiqiang clan and merge with our army to become the general trend. In this way, it is not impossible to defeat Wen Bufan, the world's evil tiger. ”

"This!!"

When Beigong Ji Yu heard this, he immediately hesitated. Liangzhou has been in a series of military disasters in the past ten years, and there are only more than 80,000 soldiers in Xiqiang now, 20,000 of whom were requisitioned by Cheng Gongying, and 20,000 of them were destroyed by Wenhan's soldiers and horses a few days ago. Therefore, Xiqiang only had 40,000 troops left to protect the tribe.

If these 40,000 soldiers and horses are requisitioned, after the end of the war, I am afraid that less than half of them will remain. With such a weak force, how could they protect the safety of the Xiqiang tribe.

What's more, for the Han people, the Qiang people are alien after all. No matter how good the relationship is on the surface, we must be more vigilant in secret. Otherwise, you will face a catastrophe of extinction at any time!

Beigong Ji Yu was hesitant, and Cheng Gongying opened his mouth to persuade again.

"Patriarch of Beigong, Wen Bufan has always hated the Qiang people very much, and his name as a champion was killed by killing the Qiang people! If Liangzhou falls into the hands of this person, Xiqiang will never come out, and the people of Xiqiang will be afraid all day long, lest one day they will be killed by Wen Bufan, so reluctant to steal life, it can be said that life is better than death! In that case, why should the Patriarch of Beigong hesitate!? ”

Cheng Gongying's words were like a giant hammer knocking on the mountain, violently striking on the heart of Beigong Jiyu. Beigong Ji Yu's old body shook, and his old face changed sharply.

Beigong Ji Yu's heart was in turmoil, and he was deciding. Cheng Gongying suddenly closed his mouth at this time, and it was enough to say this. If there are more, it will make Beigong Ji Yu suspicious.

Ma Chao was moved by the sidelines and secretly applauded. Cheng Gongying is worthy of being a peerless talent, and he can use the current defeat to fight for greater interests for the army.

After being silent for about half a pillar of incense, Beigong Ji Yu gritted his teeth suddenly, and his old eyes were full of crazy hatred.

If it weren't for Mr. Cheng's reminder, Erma wouldn't have woken up. Wen Bufan and Erma Qiang are like fire and water, and Erma can only fight with them endlessly! Erma rushed back to the tribe, raised 40,000 soldiers and horses of the tribe, and rushed to Didao! ”

"Hahaha! If this is the case, our army has nearly 160,000 troops, which is almost twice as many as the extraordinary army! The head of the Beigong patriarch is revenge, why not revenge! ”

Ma Chao laughed loudly, walked quickly to take the hand of Beigong Ji Yu, and after making some words to appease Beigong Ji Yu, Cheng Gongying seemed to think of some arrangements again, and suddenly asked Beigong Ji Yu how his relationship was with Ke Pa Wushui, the lord of Beiqiang in Bingzhou.

Although the bloodline of Beiqiang is not pure, after all, it has the status of Qiang people, and when the Han people are dominant today, Xiqiang and Beiqiang naturally have many friendships, so as not to be swallowed by the Han people.

"Patriarch Beigong, at the moment, Xiqiang is in danger, Xiqiang and Beiqiang are all a family, why don't you repair a letter to Na Ke to allocate Wushui and ask him to solve Xiqiang's difficulties?"

Unknowingly, Cheng Gongying skillfully pulled the entire Xiqiang onto his thief ship. In fact, Wen Han's attack on Liangzhou this time was under the banner of exterminating the traitors Ma Teng and Han Sui's remnants. After all, these two people raised troops to rebel in Yongzhou, and Wen Han, as a pastor in Yongzhou, naturally had a reason to send troops. And Xiqiang can stay out at all, but Beigong Jiyu previously listened to Cheng Gongying's slander, and thought that after Wenhan attacked Liangzhou, he would inevitably make things difficult for Xiqiang.

I don't know that this trip to the muddy water is mixed in, it is deep in it, and the matter has come to this point, for Beigong Jiyu and even the entire Xiqiang, it is difficult to turn back.

"Ahh Mr. Cheng reminds that! Erma immediately repaired a letter and sent someone to pass it on to the hand of Ke Bawushui, the lord of Beiqiang. But how should this epistle be written? ”

Beigong Ji Yu was in a big mess, and he was completely at the mercy of Cheng Gongying's orders. Cheng Gongying smiled, the more Beigong Ji Yu relied on him, the more it meant that Xiqiang had become a puppet at his disposal at this time.

"Beiqiang has been recuperating for several years, at this time Wen Bufan's army is fighting in Liangzhou, and there are only tens of thousands of troops in Liangzhou, why not persuade Nake to raise troops to rebel in Wushui, and take advantage of this to attack and merge the state. Bingzhou is the hinterland of Wen Bufan's forces, and when the state is in chaos, Wen Bufan will definitely be in chaos, and urgently call for rescuers to return to the state. In this way, our army can take advantage of the situation and kill it hard! ”

Cheng Gongying said with a plan, and Beigong Ji Yu's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously praised it.

"Wonderful! Mr. Cheng is really a man of God! ”

And Ma Chao was also overjoyed when he heard it on the side, and he didn't realize that he valued Cheng Gongying a little more. Later, after Cheng Gongying gave some detailed instructions to Beigong Ji Yu, Beigong Ji Yu wrote them down one by one, and then revised a letter according to Cheng Gongying's instructions.

Urgent matter, for the time being, Ma Chao wanted to set up a banquet to entertain Beigong Jiyu, but Beigong Jiyu was in the mood to drink and feast, and after politely refusing, he said goodbye to Ma Chao and Cheng Gongying, and hurried back to the Xiqiang tribe.

Ma Chao looked at the back of Beigong Jiyu leaving, and a little disdain and banter rose in the lion's eyes, these Qiang people were simple-minded and simple-minded, and they were taken advantage of, but they didn't know at all, and they looked willing and stupid.

"The military division effortlessly recruited 40,000 Qiang soldiers for our army, which can be said to be a great achievement. And then he used a clever plan, if everything was as expected by the military division, and the state was in chaos, Wen Bufan would definitely be defeated. It's just that the granary has just opened, and the wealthy families in various counties of Liangzhou have just begun to take action to work with us to appease the people. I'm going to need a lot of time to buffer! ”

If it weren't for the instability in the rear, Ma Chao would have been able to go out to the front line as soon as possible, and with Cheng Gongying's clever plan, the battle situation would have been very good at this time. Therefore, Ma Chao couldn't help but sigh with a little regret.

"General Ma don't have to worry, but do you remember Cheng's arrangement half a month ago? This arrangement is just in case. At present, it is very likely that the imperial court has sent an envoy to Wen Bufan's camp. ”

Cheng Gongying smiled leisurely, he has always liked to make preparations with both hands. In order to hinder the progress of Wenhan's army, Cheng Gongying laid out two chess pieces, one was the 20,000 Qiang soldiers of Xiqiang, and the other was the current imperial court.

Ma Chaoshi's eyes lit up suddenly, and he immediately remembered that Cheng Gongying persuaded him to repair a book half a month ago and pass it on to the imperial court. gave an explanation for Ma Teng and Han Sui to raise troops to rebel, and then showed loyalty to the imperial court, hoping that the imperial court would send someone to reconcile.

At that time, Ma Chao was very puzzled, after all, the current Han Dynasty was controlled by Prime Minister Cao Cao, and Han Sui raised troops to rebel with him in order to instigate Ma Teng, but the reason used was that Cao Cao and Wen Han joined forces to usurp the dynasty. If this is the case, Cao Cao and Wen Han are the same dog, how can Cao Cao hinder Wen Han's attack on Liangzhou.

Cheng Gongying, as Han Sui's confidant and adviser, how could he not guess Han Sui's scheming at that time, and he just smiled indifferently at Ma Chao's questions, did not analyze, and let Ma Chao act according to the plan. Ma Chao admired Cheng Gongying's wisdom very much, and knew that Cheng Gongying's move must have a deep meaning, so he didn't ask too much and did as he was told.

"Strategist, what do you mean, then Cao Mengde will really send someone to reconcile?"

Cheng Gongying suddenly mentioned this, Ma Chao just remembered it, and the doubts of the past rose again.

"Although Cheng doesn't dare to judge, he is at least eighty percent sure!"

"This?!"

Ma Chaoying frowned, and Cheng Gongying looked confident, which made Ma Chao even more puzzled. Cheng Gongying saw the changes in Ma Chao's expression one by one, and knew that it was time to analyze Ma Chao. As a strategist, if you pretend to be mysterious again, it will be too arrogant.

"General Ma is suspicious, why would this Cao Mengde hinder Wen Bufan's attack on Liangzhou?"

"Exactly. Uncle Han used to say that these two snakes and rats have a nest, and they are all jackals. At present, Cao Mengde is fighting with Yuan Benchu in Hebei, if Cao Mengde can win, half of the country will fall into his hands. At the same time, if Wen Bufan can also attack Liangzhou, the combination of the two of them will almost have seventy percent of the land in the world. If nothing else, within five years, the world will fall into the hands of the two. In such a good situation, why did Cao Mengde secretly obstruct him? ”

"Huh. General Ma, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the sea is difficult to measure. How do you know that Cao Mengde was not the slightest wary of Wen Bufan. Wen Bufan is a hero of the world, there are many fierce generals under his command, and he is also assisted by the mind of the drama Zhicai, in recent years, the new strategist Li Zhongwen has begun to show his edge, and he will defeat the general of Zhengxi. This person is resourceful and in no way inferior to Cheng. In addition, Wen Bufan's jurisdiction is rich, and it is a land of abundant money and grain, and it has won the hearts of the people in the territory. Such a male lord, even if Cao Mengde's heart is as broad as the sea, it is impossible to be compatible. And that Wen Bu is not a saint, how can he be willing to give away his life's work to others. Sooner or later, these two people will have a battle, Wen Bufan has won Yongzhou at this time, and the grandeur of his power is enough to make Cao Mengde jealous. Therefore, Cao Mengde will not allow Wen Bufan's power to expand again! ”

Cheng Gongying smiled freely and talked eloquently, and Ma Chao could be described as a fool of the sky with an analysis. Ma Chao listened very reasonably, and shook his head again and again, as if this was the case.

Ma Chao's doubts were immediately resolved, and then he began to discuss with Cheng Gongying about the arrangement of the battle in Liangzhou.

Wen Han has obtained clear water in Liangzhou and has a base place. At present, most of the Xiliang army is concentrated in Di Dao. The terrain of Liangzhou is steep, and there are plateaus and slopes everywhere, so it is necessary to be cautious and choose a good route every time you march, otherwise it is very easy to cause unnecessary fatigue of the soldiers of the army. Therefore, the place where the two armies fought a decisive battle was particularly important. Ma Chao and Cheng Gongying are analyzing where the Xiliang army is and Wenhan's army, so as to take advantage of the geographical advantage.

The matter is big, and the rear of Liangzhou is not stable at the moment, Ma Chao will not make a big move for a while, and as for Wen Han's side, he did not dare to act rashly when he did not know the movement of the Xiliang army.

At the same time, in Shimizu City.

A team of scouts hurriedly entered the city, and met Li You on the way, and Li You saw that the scouts were urgent, so he asked. The scout general told Li You that ten miles away, there was a team of well-armored soldiers escorting a splendid carriage towards Qingshui, and the banner in the team said that it was Liu Geng, the king of Hanyang!

When Li You heard this, his face suddenly darkened, and his eyes glowed with gloom. Liu Geng, the king of Hanyang, is the uncle of Emperor Han Xian, although he has no power, but after all, he is a relative of the Han family, and his status is extremely noble, even Cao Cao has to sell some of his face.
