The chaos in Hehuang soon spread to Hexi, and Wei Shuo only laughed at this, not paying attention to it at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

All of this is actually expected in Hexi, the Hehuang Valley is too narrow, where can there be two forces?

The rich land of Hehuang, surrounded by the Hongchi Mountains, the plateau, and the Yellow River, is a land that can be defended by danger, but it also limits its development potential.

No matter which side of Nanliang or Houliang wins, there are some problems in threatening Hexi, but it may make the east and Xiqin uneasy.

Moreover, if Nanliang or Houliang is really bigger, Hexi can also take advantage of Tuyuhun to attack from the north and south.

Therefore, no matter how much the two heroes of Hehuang toss, they can't escape from the palm of Hexi's hand.

In mid-October, when the smoke of the river gradually stopped, Wei Shuo received a secret letter from Wang Maide.

In the secret letter, Wang Maide gave a detailed introduction to his experience over the past month, as well as his judgment and planning for the future situation.

"Hahaha, Maide is too powerful, and in just over a month, he has more than doubled the strength in Fu Deng's hands."

In the Metropolitan Protectorate, Wei Shuo held the secret letter and danced excitedly.

He believed that as long as Fu Deng's strength recovered, he would not be easily defeated by Hou Qin.

In this way, Hou Qin was contained, and he could not disturb Hexi's plan to recuperate.

"Naoyuan, how did he do it?" Du Jin asked curiously.

"Hahaha, Wang Maide is really both civil and military!"

"He used the power granted by Fu Deng to verify the population in the former Qin, not only confiscated a large amount of food and money, but also solved the problem of insufficient military resources in one fell swoop."

At the beginning of the establishment of the Former Qin, as in the Wei and Jin dynasties, each general had his own subordinates.

These tribes belonged to the private ownership of various nobles and generals, and they were only loyal to their masters, and never served or paid taxes to the government.

Most of the people captured by the generals in the war were intercepted, except for a part that was handed over to the government.

After a long period of time, the leading generals accommodated and concealed many households under their names, competing with the state for profits, resulting in the depletion of the state's finances and soldiers.

Due to the strong strength in the early stage, and the fact that Fu Deng has been winning battles, this problem is nothing and does not affect the overall situation.

But recently, the former Qin suffered a series of defeats and lost a large number of troops, which led to the shortage of soldiers immediately highlighted.

And the reason why Fu Deng supported Wang Maide to verify the population was also because he knew that this move would allow him to quickly recover his strength.

However, in order to appease the disgruntled nobles, after Wang Maide was completed, Fu Deng immediately crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and kicked him to Lüyang.

Wang Maide was not dissatisfied with this, but crossed Longshan with thousands of carefully selected men and horses to the west.

……

"Lord, Fu Deng is so hateful, he actually crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and he drove Maide away just after a hint of improvement."

"That is, if it weren't for the king's participation in the army to help him, he would be able to regather tens of thousands of soldiers and horses now?"

"Hmph, a white-eyed wolf like this, don't care about Hexi in the future, it's better to be killed by Yao Chang."

Everyone was very dissatisfied with Wang Maide's 'exile' of Luoyang by Fu Deng, but they didn't know that all this was expected by him.

It turned out that Wang Maide had thought that Fu Deng would not let him control all the soldiers and horses, so he made arrangements early.

He took advantage of the period of stealing and picking up the Hao of the Di clan to secretly pull up a team of 5,000 people.

The grassroots generals in the team are all students of the Armed Forces Academy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a Hexi army dressed in the coat of the former Qin.

Therefore, he seems to have been exiled to Luoyang, but in fact, Wang Maide himself took the initiative to leave Yongcheng.

In the past month, he has seen Furden for what he really is.

This man lives for revenge, even if he dies his wife and son for it.

As long as he has strength, Fu Deng only has one thought in his mind to kill Yao Chang.

It's a pity that the former Qin family has already been defeated by Fu Deng, even if a team is gathered through Wang Maide's 'raid' this time, it is just a return to the light.

Not to mention that this move greatly offended the Haoqiang of the Di people, so that the Di people looked forward to Fu Deng's death more than Yao Chang.

It was precisely because he saw through this that Wang Maide would be 'obediently' exiled to Luoyang by Fu Deng, because he didn't want to stay in Yongcheng to die.

In a secret letter to Wei Shuo, Wang Maide made a detailed analysis of the future changes in Guanlong, believing that the defeat of Fu Deng was inevitable, and the great changes would only occur in a few months, and at the latest would not be later than the beginning of spring next year.

In order to prevent the Later Qin from destroying Fu Deng, he joined forces with the Western Qin to conspire with Hexi, and he proposed to secretly wait for an opportunity to seize the two counties of Luoyang and Tianshui.

"If Wang Mai Dezhen captures the two counties of Tianshui and Luoyang, and connects with the north to form a line, it will just block Yao Chang to the east of Longshan."

"But this plan is not easy to achieve, only relying on thousands of men and horses under Wang Maide's command, how can you control the land of the two counties?"

"Not to mention that there is still Xiqin eyeing him next to him, and the minister is worried that he will not only not be able to take Tianshui, but also may lose Luoyang."

"Can the Hexi Army be dispatched at a critical moment?"

"No, you can't expose Wang Maide's true identity for the time being, otherwise he will be in danger."

"That's right, the lord's words are very reasonable, and it is indeed not appropriate for the outside world to know that Wang Maide has something to do with Hexi."

"Originally, Later Qin and Western Qin were afraid that Hexi would be strong, and once Wang Maide was exposed, he would definitely be besieged by both sides."

"At present, the Hexi Army has not yet been reorganized, and the Sinicization reform is also being implemented, so there is no time to give strong support."

"You don't have to worry too much about Longyou, you already have a countermeasure to buy virtue."

Saying that, Wei Shuo raised the secret letter in his hand, and said loudly: "Jiang Yu has long been dissatisfied with Xiqin, and Maide has secretly sent someone to contact the other party. ”

"The two sides agreed that in the future, they will jointly raise troops to drive out Western Qin and divide Qinzhou together."

"Wang is really talented when he joins the army, if Hexi wins Longyou in the future, the lord should give him a great credit."

"Wang's military plans are really interlocking, first taking advantage of Fu Deng's eagerness for revenge to gain the power of the former Qin."

"After raising enough soldiers and horses for Fu Deng, he took the opportunity to jump out of the Yongcheng whirlpool."

"After coming to Luoyang, he not only successfully gained a foothold, but also formed an alliance with ginger milk."

"If everything goes well, Longyou will no longer be able to escape the palm of Hexi."

Knowing that Wang Maide had all the plans, everyone present was overwhelmed by his genius-like ideas, and even Wang Zhenxi, who has always claimed to be good at overall planning, was deeply impressed.

"I don't know what the strength of this ginger milk is?" Wei Shuo asked again.

"Lord Yu, the Tianshui Jiang clan is the right clan of Longyou, and the ginger milk is the local hero, and the strength is not weak."

"Well, after the ginger milk incident in the coming year, the Hexi Army might as well make a move to contain the main force of Western Qin."

……

After eliminating Yang Ding and taking Tianshui County, Qi Fu Qiangui set his sights on Luoyang County further west.

If Lüyang is captured again, the territory of Western Qin will include four and a half counties including Nan'an, Longxi, Tianshui, Lüyang, and Jincheng, and almost occupy most of Qinzhou.

Coupled with the two allies of Nanliang and Hou Qin, he is confident that he will compete with Hexi.

At the end of 391 A.D., the begging and the Qiangui returned to the amnesty territory, and appointed the eldest son Qifu Chipan as the Shangshu Ling, the left Changshi Bian Rui as the left servant of the Shangshu, the right Changshi Miyi as the right servant of the Shangshu, Zhai Yu as the secretary of the ministry, Zhai Qing as the main guest of the book, Du Xuan as the secretary of the military department, Wang Songshou as the secretary of the Ministry, Fan Qian as the secretary of the three princes, Fang Hong, Lu Jing as the servant, and also called the big single Yu and the general.

Soon, the king of Western Qin ordered his younger brother to reorganize his troops and horses in Yizhou and prepare to attack Luoyang.

Begging for Qiangui to dare to take the initiative to attack Luoyang, it was at the invitation of Later Qin Yao Chang that the two sides agreed to send troops at the same time to destroy Fu Deng.

After receiving the order, Qifu Yizhou immediately began to reorganize the army.

However, he didn't know that since he killed Yang Ding, he often regarded himself as a famous general, and he was very proud in his words.

When some important ministers saw this scene, they were worried that they would be used by the enemy, so they made a statement to persuade the beggar to return to the army and replace them.

"Yizhou is the lord's younger brother, and he has many military exploits, and because of his repeated victories, he often has a sense of pride."

"If he encounters an enemy, he will certainly be proud and underestimate the enemy, and he must not let him lead the army alone."

"Yizhou is brave and good at commanding the people, and no one can reach the generals, how can the widow abandon it?"

"In this case, in order to prevent him from acting arbitrarily, it is better to appoint an important minister to assist him, so that nothing can be done."

Qifu Qiangui accepted the suggestion of his subordinates and appointed Wei Qian, the general of Pingbei, as the chief historian, the regular attendant of the scattered cavalry, and the marching Sima.

Just as the Western Qin was in full swing and wanted to attack Luoyang, Wang Maide also did not sit still.

Since he had already predicted that Fu Deng would be defeated, he also had to consider the defense of Longshan, in case Hou Qin was breaking through Fu Deng and taking advantage of the situation to sweep Longyou.

In addition, he also received a secret letter from Tianshui ginger milk that the other party planned to raise troops to attack Shangtai at the beginning of the next year.

This is a good thing for Wang Maide, with Jiang Rou blocking the west, he can focus on the war in the east.
