However, after going through so many things, the princes will not trust each other as much as they did at the beginning, and they must have more fears of each other because of the entanglement of interests.

This is also the reason why Cao Cao desperately wants to improve his strength, only after his own strength is strong, can he not be at a disadvantage when he confronts Lu Bu in the future.

"Fengxiao, in your opinion, if this king attacks Yizhou in the coming year, will it be successful?" Lu Bu asked suddenly.

Guo Jia said: "Lord, with the current strength of our army, as long as the Sword Pavilion is in control, it will be able to break through Yizhou and make Liu Bei a lost dog." ”

Lu Budao: "The Sword Pavilion is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if you want to break through, it is difficult to plan for it in a hurry. ”

"Why should the lord worry, with the means of the flying eagle, the shadow guard and the black ice platform under the lord's command, it is still very easy to enter Yizhou......" Guo Jia's voice became smaller and smaller.

After hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes lit up, and he laughed and said, "With Fengxiao, why can't you break Liu Bei." ”

"The lord didn't think of it." Guo Jia hurriedly said that he had a good relationship with Lu Bu, but in normal times, Guo Jia paid more and more attention to his words and deeds, after all, Lu Bu's position was very different from before.

Ten days later, when Zhangye gradually stabilized, Lü Bu decided to send troops to attack Jiuquan, not only Jiuquan, Dunhuang and the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, but also to temporarily stabilize.

The arrival of the Han army, so that the temporary stationed in the city of the watch of the Qing He want to cry without tears, the original more than 10,000 troops were still defeated in the hands of Lu Bu, and now he commanded only 2,000 soldiers and horses, the wall of the watch is low, against the Han army, can only be said to be a luxury, he does not want to enter the Jiuquan county of Lufu, but Yang Wan is very strict against him, just let him stationed in the city, for Yang Wan's purpose, Qing He is very clear, is not afraid that his arrival will affect Yang Wan's status in the city, Let him lead the soldiers and horses stationed in the city of the Biao clan and be able to resist the soldiers and horses of the Han army, why not.

If it was put a few years ago, if he had a city in his hand, he would still be extremely happy, but now the situation of the Han army is very different, with a ruined city, it is obviously an impossible thing to stop the pace of the Han army.

"Chief, what should I do if Yang is not allowed to enter Lufu?" A Qiang general asked.

Qing He snorted coldly: "Yang Wan is just a Di person, thinking that occupying Jiuquan will make the Qiang people obey his orders, and he wants to make this leader give him his life, don't think about it." ”

"What does the leader mean?" The Qiang people will lead the way.

"If the number of Han troops is large, we will leave the city directly and escape into Heli Mountain, I don't believe that these Han troops can still chase them to the mountain." Qinghe Road.

The Qiang generals were disdainful when they heard this, and on the surface they were still respectful to Qinghe, originally the Qiang generals planned to take the power of Jiuquan from Yang Wan after Qinghe led them back to Lufu, and Yang Wan was in charge of the power of the Qiang people, which always made people feel a little awkward, they were Qiang people, and the enemy became their leader, what kind of system.

Qing He didn't realize it at all, because his words made him lose a lot of prestige among the Qiang generals.

It's not that Qing He doesn't want to fight for power in Yang Wan's hands, but Qing He understands that with the strength in his hands, it is difficult to resist the Han army, rather than this, it is better to leave as soon as possible to retain more strength.

Qinghe was the patriarch of the Qiang before, and he was naturally able to completely decide the things in the tribe, but he ignored it, and now there are many warriors of the tribe in the city, they may not be willing to follow Qinghe into the mountains, after enjoying the life of the city, even if it is the Qiang people, they are not willing to give up the things in their hands easily, they still want to continue to maintain the Qiang people's rule over Liangzhou, they want to defeat the Han army, and there are naturally not a few Qiang people with this idea.

It's just that there are fewer and fewer Qiang people who think like this, because they are the craziest people on the battlefield, and they are also the easiest people to sacrifice on the battlefield.

When Lu Bu led the army to the outside of Qinghe City, he got the news from the scouts.

"Lord, could it be that something is happening ahead?" Pang Tong asked, it is said that at such a time, there are no Qiang people who can stop the pace of their own army.

Lu Budao: "The scouts have sent news that the city of the Cousin Clan, which originally had more than 2,000 Qiang soldiers, was empty, and even the people in the city left with them. ”

Pang Tong pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, it is reasonable, the lord led the two armies to win two wars in succession, which made the Qiang people panic, and when facing the lord's army, they were afraid in their hearts, and it was inevitable that they would choose to flee, and the easiest place to hide in Jiuquan County was Heli Mountain."

Lu Bu sneered: "Could it be that these Qiang people think that after hiding in the mountains, this king will have no way to take them." ”

"The Qiang people fled, it is the opportunity for the lord to break through Jiuquan County in one fell swoop, and now the Qiang people are panicking, although Jiuquan County has Yang Wan to guard, it is just Di people, there must be many people among the Qiang people who are dissatisfied with Yang million, up and down are not in unison, after the lord leads the army to arrive outside the city, he will inevitably be able to find the flaws of the defenders, as long as Jiuquan County is broken, the Qiang people will have no place to hide, and it will not be at the disposal of the lord at that time." Pang Tong said slowly.

"Shi Yuan's words are true, but that Yang Wan is extremely cunning, and if he wants to break through Jiuquan County, it must take a lot of effort." Lu Budao.

Li Ru stepped forward and said: "My lord, my subordinates have a plan, if they can succeed, they will definitely be able to make the Qiang people unstable." ”

"Oh? Wen You, hurry up. Lu Bu was overjoyed.

Li Ru said: "The lord only needs to order someone to inform the Qiang people in the city of the lord's achievements over the years, which will definitely have a surprising effect." ”

Lu Bu looked surprised when he heard this, if he made the Qiang people realize his strength, he would definitely have to fight his own army more attentively, what Lu Bu didn't expect was that Yang Wan had already done such a thing before him.

"Lord, the Qiang people advocate the strong, in their opinion, the strong is the most worthy of respect, and the lord's record, brilliant through the ages, outside the city of Guzang, but also with a weak force will think that the brave Qiang army defeated, and then break through Zhangye, what a might, if the Qiang tribe understands the detailed achievements of the lord, how will they fight against the lord, will definitely choose to take refuge in the lord, if it is in Yang Wan when the power will not happen, once the Qiang people are at a disadvantage, they will have more thinking, And Yang Wan is just a person after all. Li Ru explained.
