After arranging, the prisoners were reorganized, and Wei Shuo was in the palace again, receiving the former Houliang bureaucrats. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Among them, Jia Qian, Dong Fang, Guo Bao, and Yang Ying have made it clear that they are willing to take refuge.

These people are all former civilian officials of the Western Expeditionary Army, and it is only because the Western Expeditionary Army is unified with military force that the status of everyone is not high.

It wasn't until Lu Guang established Houliang and wantonly squeezed out the generals that everyone gradually gained its reuse.

But who knew that the good days had only passed for a few days, and the aftermath had disappeared.

None of them are from local wealthy families, among which Yang Ying is from the Hongnong Yang family, and the others are also from the Yongqin official family.

Therefore, unlike the Hexi family, they are resistant to Wei Shuo.

With the help of all Houliang Wenchen, before Song Miao arrived, Wei Shuo's burden was greatly reduced.

"It is troublesome for the four gentlemen to sort out the household registration and the number and coefficient of the old land registers in various places, so as to facilitate the implementation of the uniform land system."

"Your Ministers obey."

Yang Ying, Jia Qian and others began to sort out the books, and secretly compared Wei Shuo with the old master Lu Guang in their hearts.

Both of them are extraordinary, except for Lu Guang, who looks more like a martial artist, and Wei Shuo, who is more like a literati, there is almost no difference in appearance.

However, from the perspective of treating people and handling things, Wei Shuo is obviously more suitable for being a monarch than Lu Guang.

Because Lu Guang is more like a general, more like the lord of a country.

Not to mention that Lu Guang rarely focuses on government affairs, in most cases, he still uses the idea of managing logistics to deal with people's livelihood and customs affairs.

Wei Shuo is different, he attaches more importance to people's livelihood and economy than Lu Guang, and has his own unique views on government affairs.

For the suggestions made by subordinates and staff, they can also quickly distinguish the advantages and disadvantages, and choose the good ones to follow.

When everyone was dealing with government affairs, they suddenly saw Frustrated Meng Xun break in.

"Lord, Lingnan Emergency."

Hearing this, Wei Shuo stood up suddenly, grabbed the military newspaper and quickly opened it, and his face changed greatly.

This was an urgent report from Duan Ye, saying that the beggar and the Qiangui gathered tens of thousands of troops with the intention of marching north, and they were worried that they would not be able to hold Hongchiling, so they asked for help from the rear.

"Those who return from begging are not good!" After reading the military report, Wei Shuo muttered to himself.

Fuqu Mengxun nodded and agreed: "It must be that the Gao Changjun quickly seized Guzang, which stimulated the beggar Qiangui, and he wanted to take advantage of our unstable foothold to seize Guzang." ”

"Hmph, this time Lao Tzu will tell the beggar to return to understand, what does it mean to steal chickens and rice."

Wei Shuo snorted coldly, and then pointed at Meng Xun and said excitedly: "Meng Xun, Shuo Yi left you to guard Guzang, do you dare to take on this heavy responsibility?" ”

"The minister is willing to go to the soup for the lord, and he will not give up." After speaking, Meng Xun immediately knelt on the ground.

Regardless of the sincerity of Meng Xun's statement, he is very decent in the eyes of outsiders, and he is a loyal person.

"Okay, I'll leave Li Wei, Xu Zhao, and Jiang Fei to assist you!"

"Right now, Song Xuan, Zhang Zhan, Zong Chang and others are on the way, you just need to take care of the present, and when Song Xuan and others arrive, you will be responsible for your own physical industry."

"The minister commands." Frustrated Meng Xun understood that it was impossible for his family to hold power for a long time, so he immediately agreed to it.

He repeatedly said that as long as Song Miao arrived, he would immediately transfer the power.

Staying in the frustration canal Mengxun to guard Gu Zang was also a last resort.

At present, among the people who followed Wei Shuodong into the east, only Li Wei and Fuqu Mengxun were both military and political, and they had the ability to take charge of themselves.

It's a pity that Li Wei was born in a family, and he has an unclear relationship with a family in the city.

In the case that he has not yet fully controlled the overall situation, he will never dare to give power to Li Wei.

You must know that in history, Li Wei was supported by the family and finally established the Xiliang hegemony.

Unlike Fuqu Mengxun, he not only has nothing to do with the family, but he is also very smart, and smart people are often very knowledgeable about current affairs.

After arranging the rear, Wei Shuo rode south with 10,000 steps, accompanied by Fuqu Nancheng and Kang Long.

……

At this moment, in Guangwu City, the three parties of begging for Qiangui, bald Wugu, and Lu Su gathered together to discuss the matter of going north.

Originally, the bald Wugu didn't want to come to join in the fun, but under the persecution of the begging Qiangui, he had to come.

Moreover, when the Western Qin army went north, it had to go through Guangwu, and it was not good not to show up if it was bald and lonely.

In addition, the Lu family's southward movement completely disrupted the bald Xianbei's strategy of conquering Lingnan.

The bald black lonely participated in the alliance this time, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to probe Lu Su's mouth, or negotiate with each other's territory.

The tripartite alliance, the most interested in going north, is none other than the two of them.

One of them is greedy for Gu Zang's wealth, and the other has a grudge against Wei Shuo, and they both want to get rid of it quickly.

The leader of the alliance sat on the main seat, and the bald brothers and the Lu clan were on the left and right sides.

"General Lu, Er just came down from the north, and he has fought with Wei Shuo many times, so you can introduce it to you first."

Begging for Qiangui almost didn't make Lu Su angry to death, the other party didn't treat him as the lord of a country at all, and his tone and tone were like treating his subordinates.

Lu Su wanted to get up and leave directly, but after thinking about the situation in front of him, he couldn't help but suppress his anger hard.

"Wei Shuo has some real skills, which should not be underestimated."

"And the Hexi Army is also extraordinary, comparable to the elite of the Lu Army, and its cavalry is particularly elite, and it is very good at running on the road."

"However, after all, he has just entered Guzang, and the families have not yet been attached, so it is a good time for me to go north to recapture Guzang."

"As the saying goes: if you don't go, you will be blamed! If you miss the opportunity in front of you because of hesitation, you may not have a good opportunity in the future. ”

Lu Su knew that he had been greedy for a long time, so he tried his best to encourage him to go north.

But begging for Qiangui is not a fool, how can he not see through Lu Su's sinister intentions?

I just want to see him and Wei Shuo fight for a defeat, and the Lu family will take the opportunity to rise again.

Regardless of his sinister intentions, there is one thing that Lu Su is really right.

At present, Wei Shuo is indeed unstable, and it is a good opportunity for the army to go north, and it is a pity to miss it.

"What does the bald chief think about this?"

"Yes...... But Wei Shuo is not easy to mess with, I heard that he has personally led 10,000 steps to ride south. ”

"If he defends with danger, when will he be able to break through the Hongchi Ridge with cavalry alone?"

"Hmph, the bald leader doesn't want to take risks, he just wants to hide in Lingnan to recuperate."

"But I don't know that after Wei Shuo surrenders to Hexi, how can he let us entrench in Lingnan again?"

Lu Su's words moved most people, and even the beggar couldn't help but look up at him.

"Yes, Wei Shuo's occupation of Hexi is too much of a threat to us, and we must take advantage of its fledgling wings to strangle it, otherwise it will become a confidant in the future."

"That's true, you guys live in Lingnan and Henan, and you don't know what Wei Shuo did."

"I heard that he was accepting Lu Shui Hu Toucheng, but he did not allow his tribe to exist alone."

"The leaders and leaders of the tribe were moved to Dunhuang, and the tribes were broken up and reorganized."

"Hehe, unless you are willing to go to Gaochang to be a rich man in the future, Lu Shuihu's today is your tomorrow."

In the end, under the strong instigation of Lü Su, the bald hair department, the Western Qin, and the remnants of the Lü clan, with a total of 50,000 troops, were begged to be the leaders of the alliance and marched north.

……

Hongchiling is about 150 kilometers away from Guzang, the terrain along the way is flat and vast, it is the largest accumulation plain in the Hexi Corridor, and there is almost no natural danger to sustain.

This was originally the territory of the Xiongnu Hutu King, and during the first Hexi Campaign, the champion Hou Huo Qu was ill and formulated a beheading action to capture the thief and capture the king first.

He led his army to quickly cross the Hunu River and seize this rich land.

Hongchi Ridge, in modern times, is Wusheling Ridge, the Ming Dynasty is called the watershed, and the Republic of China is called Wushaling.

It is an important geographical node, which belongs to the southeast end of Lenglongling, the northern branch of the Qilian Mountains.

Wusheling is the traffic throat and important pass from the Hexi Corridor to Chang'an on the ancient Silk Road.

After the Han general Huo Qubing led his army to cross the Yellow River, he traveled northward from Wuting, non-stop, flying all the way, crossing the Wusheling Ridge and entering the Xiongnu-controlled area of the Hexi Corridor.

From a military point of view, Wusheling is undoubtedly the first line of defense to block the enemy's northward advance.

There are four huge Gangfu in a row, and there is a trend of "one husband is in charge, and ten thousand people are not open".

In order to control this strategic point, shortly after the victory in the Battle of Hexi, the Han Dynasty built Lingjusai in the south of Wusheling Lingnan.

It's a pity that this fortress has fallen into disrepair for a long time and is no longer useful, otherwise you just need to hold the Lingju Fortress, even if the enemy is many times larger, there is no need to worry.

At this time, Wei Shuo personally led the army south, ran wildly all the way, and finally rushed ahead of the enemy army and joined Duan Ye at Wuting.
