From the very beginning, Liu Yuan's goal was to Shangjun, and there was no intention of joining forces with the Liangzhou rebels to rebel against the Han Court. First the north and then the south is a strategy that he has long been firm and will never change easily.

If there were no rebels to envoy, Liu Yuan might have concentrated on staying in Meiji, being a bystander, and occasionally paying attention to the Liangzhou Rebellion. On a whim, maybe there will be some comments on both the Han and the thief.

But after the rebels came, Liu Yuan moved his mind. Xianbei's side was temporarily laissez-faire, this Dongqiang took the initiative to send it to the door to tempt himself, and Shangjun who was close to him, it was too difficult not to be moved. played a trick, slightly "supported" the rebellion of the Qiang people in Shangjun, and after getting the news of the destruction of the city of Fushi, he decisively raised troops.

Of course, Liu Yuan also thought about it from a different angle, if it was really as Zhao Xi said, he would attack in Bingzhou. The two phases are sandwiched against the Han Court, and the rebellion in Liangzhou in this life will completely stop at the land of Yongliang, and affect the entire west and north. The destructive power caused is only afraid to multiply compared to the previous life. If this is the case, it is really possible for the big man to be dragged down.

At the slightest move, Liu Yuan held back, everything is not so simple. Don't look at the accumulation of big men and it is difficult to return, the days are declining, and the world is full of chaos. But the ruling class is still stable, and the elite class of the families and scholars who control the world is still stable.

With the current strength of the Xiongnu, rashly raising an army will inevitably attract the attention of the Han court. Compared with Liangzhou, which is far away in the sky, the Xiongnu who are close in front of you are a big trouble. I'm afraid that at that time, the elite soldiers and strong generals of the big Han will have to be transferred to focus on attacking themselves.

Huangfu Song has not yet been sent to Chang'an to unify the army, if he is transferred to deal with himself, it will definitely be enough for Liu Yuan to have a headache. What's more, Zang Min in Taiyuan and Dong Zhuo in Hedong are not easy to match.

Liu Yuan can imagine that scene, he is fighting to the death with the Han army here, and Bian, Han and others are attacking the city in the west. Such a fire-hot and thankless thing, Liu Yuan will not do it.

However, under the banner of helping the Han to quell the rebellion, it is still possible to attack the county and take a small advantage. Liu Yuan personally led 5,000 horsemen to the expedition, entered Shangjun from Guluo City, passed through Baitu, crossed the Great Wall, and went straight to Fushi.

The army marched in a hurry, and drove straight in, but in only two days, it was close to the skin. Passing all the way, I met a lot of displaced people, dragging their families and fleeing northward, and the Qiang people were indeed moving.

After inquiring about some Han people, the Qiang people were in rebellion, and there were countless people who fled south, and they went all the way to the north to seek refuge in the Xiongnu. This can make Liu Yuan a little surprised, it seems that the effect of collecting the displaced people over the years and giving them the opportunity to cultivate the fields and survive has been reflected.

Liu Yuan was in a good mood, and he was relaxed all the way, and the commander's mood naturally affected the officers and men of the army, and his morale was actually improved. This time, Liu Yuan only brought 2,000 guards and pro-army, and the rest were newly recruited Xiongnu troops, many of whom were young and strong and even went to the battlefield for the first time. On this trip to the county, Liu Yuan had plans to train his troops in battle.

Shangjun Qinzhi, with a long history, since the Xinmang Rebellion, it was dilapidated together with the land of Kansai and reduced to a small border county. There are only a few thousand households, and the people are only tens of thousands, compared with the hundreds of thousands of households in the former Han Dynasty, the gap is not a star and a half.

In the twilight of spring, the weather was warm and cold, and after galloping all the way, Liu Yuan also sweated. Fortunately, with the support of bilateral stirrups, between the hips and thighs is no longer as easy to wear out as before. It was afternoon, and the outline of the city could be seen in the distance, and the sound of the river was faintly heard.

In the distance, you can see some Qiang tents and Qiang horses. Ordered the army to slow down, and ordered the centurion Long Jie beside him: "You go and inform the Qiang people, just say that Ben Dan Yu is here, and he wants to meet the leaders of the alliance and jointly raise an army to attack the Han!" ”

At this time, the city of Fushi, after the Qiang people raged, was very silent and dilapidated. The Han were either killed or fled for their lives, and only a few Qiang people remained in the city searching to see if they could find any missing possessions.

The Qiang camp in the east of the city was very lively, and the Qiang people were full of joy and seemed to have gained a lot. In a felt tent, several Qiang leaders were celebrating enthusiastically, hugging the looting Han women and drinking fine wine.

The pious Qiang took the lead, and almost all the Dongqiang tribes in Shangjun joined the rebellion, but now it is not as good as it was decades ago, and several tribes have joined forces to gather more than 3,000 cavalry.

Hearing that Liu Yuan personally led the army, several leaders did not dare to slack off, put down their wine glasses, and led people out of the camp to greet them.

About five miles away from the Qiang camp, Liu Yuan gave an order, and the Xiongnu soldiers had already begun to set up camp. When several Qiang leaders arrived, they saw a busy scene.

Liu Yuan personally went out of the camp to receive him, which made several leaders a little flattered. "Meet Da Shan Yu!" Looking at the heroic Liu Yuan, a few bowed their heads. Liu Yuan responded with a smile on his face, looking very kind.

Confused by Liu Yuan's attitude, several leaders smiled at themselves, and hurriedly ordered the accompanying Qiang people to pull the prepared material wealth into the Xiongnu camp to offer, Liu Yuan smiled and invited him to the camp.

At night, Liu Yuan held a banquet in the camp to entertain several Qiang leaders. The lights in the big tent are bright, the atmosphere is warm, and the cup is changed, so happy. Several of the leaders were so drunk that they were so guarded that they didn't notice that most of the Xiongnu nobles and generals in the tent were looking at them with unusual eyes.

"According to the villain's view, the Hun army is mighty, the soldiers are brave, and there is a big single to personally lead the army. We must have gained a lot from this uprising, and it is not difficult to sweep the entire Shangjun south! The pious Qiang leader was in high spirits, and got up to the Huns and praised Liu Yuan to the fullest.

Liu Yuan agreed and kept persuading him to drink. In the middle of the night, the leaders of the Qiang people in the tent were already drunk, and they still couldn't find the north.

Liu Yuan finally put down the wine glass that he had been playing with for a long time in his hand, looked around at the Qiang people who were subconsciously hazy, and said coldly: "Let's do it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the Hun generals in the tent burst into trouble, and several Qiang leaders couldn't react at all, and they were killed in a few breaths. Fugu Huaijing personally beheaded the head of the pious Qiang leader.

As soon as the big tent was moved, the atmosphere of the entire Hun camp also changed. The hundreds of Qiang people brought into the Xiongnu camp by the leaders were also unprepared, and they did not expect that the Xiongnu soldiers who were drinking and chatting with them a moment ago would suddenly kill them. But in a moment's effort, all of them were solved.

The Hun camp, which had made a little waves, soon fell into calm again. It didn't take long for thousands of Hun cavalry troops to go out of the camp at night under the leadership of Fugu Huaijing, and directly attacked the Qiang camp.

The Qiang people were defenseless, and they were suddenly attacked, and they couldn't react at all. The leader was killed by Liu Yuan in the Xiongnu camp, and the dragons were leaderless, unable to resist, and were destroyed. That night, Liu Yuan didn't pay much loss, and easily defeated the Qiang people.

More than 2,000 Qiang soldiers were captured, and those who dared to resist were thrown into the luxurious water as fish and shrimp rations. In the next few days, Liu Yuan began to vigorously conquer the Qiang tribes in Shangjun, and without military strength, the tribe had almost no power to resist.

The pious Qiang, the prison sister Qiang, Shen Diqiang, and Wu Qiang were successively annexed by the Xiongnu, and Liu Yuan got tens of thousands of his troops to go to the north.

A few days later, Liu Yuan had already taken the Shangjun Lingtu near the Great Wall under his control, and stationed troops here to digest the Qiang people he had gained. As for going south, Liu Yuan didn't have that idea. One can't be used, and the other is afraid that it will be too exciting to the big man.

"Da Shan Yu, Meiji sent a message, a Han envoy arrived, and the edict agreed that we should lead the army to quell the rebellion!" Hearing the news from Meiji, Liu Yuan couldn't help but smile.
