"So what does this have to do with Qianman's handsome banner appearing on the Wuwei border?"
This time it was Lu Bu who was questioning. As for Dong Zhuojun, probably because they had already understood it before, they just listened to Li Ru's analysis quietly, and neither made any evaluation of Li Ru's analysis, nor did they help Li Ru deduce his analysis.
It can be said that this is completely a personal show of Li Ru against the state army.
Of course, the strategic level of the other personnel of the Xiliang Army, if it is not endorsed in advance, I am afraid that it may be more likely to cause chaos. Latest Novel""
There is no way, if you have gains, you will lose, and it is really difficult to cultivate generals who are good at thinking with such fierce tactics as the Xiliang Army.
"Although after several battles, the Royal Court of Danhan Mountain has suffered huge losses, but as the most elite and largest legion of the Gongwei Danhan Mountain, I don't think the other party will be devastated because of this. Perhaps the loss of some elites is indeed a huge loss for them, but if you underestimate the Takayanagi Army of Danhan Mountain, it must be their enemy who suffers, especially when the two of Kuitou and Qianman have already shaken hands and made peace, and the royal court troops will definitely be reorganized on a large scale. ”
"In other words, the Xianbei people plan to attack the west?" Latest Novel""
"Although we can't confirm the whereabouts of the Gaoliu Army, but according to the battle situation of those border army's 'death squads', they were very light and able to break through the defense line of the Xianbei army, but in the end they were lost in the hands of the leader and his escort troops, obviously this is definitely not the combat style of the Gaoliu army, those troops may just be disguised by some herdsmen under the royal court, even if they have some combat skills and excellent horse control skills, but I don't think these people can confront our Xiliang army. And there is also news that although we have seen Kuitou several times and vaguely seen Qianman's figure several times at the same time, several capable brothers of Kuitou have not seen it, and where these people are is the same as Gao Yanagi Jun is also a mystery. ”
Just as when the Fukushima nuclear power plant had a problem and had to use seawater injection, a smart person would immediately think of a question: where did the used water go, and now we also have to ask: Where is the elite Takayanagi Army of Danhan Mountain, who is the Gongwei Xianbei Shan Yu? Combined with some of the actions of the Xianbei army, the answer is self-evident.
As mentioned earlier, for an empire as vast as the Central Plains Dynasty, the Western Regions did not have much more economic value than the high strategic value of the terrain, even if it could provide some curiosities for the emperors of the Central Plains, it could also bring an additional tax to the emperor, and the happy feeling that some countries could bring with their tame attitudes.
But that's about it.
In the eyes of the rulers of the Han Dynasty, in fact, except for the last point that can leave a mark in the history books, it is really not worth mentioning, and the entire Western Regions may not be as high as the population, grain production, and total taxes that a county in Nanyang had in its heyday, and the amount of money and grain spent there to control it is probably much more than it was obtained. Not only because of the local water and soil problems, but also because it is too far away from the core area of Han rule.
Think about it, how would a country that even Liangzhou was about to give up feel to a place even farther away than Liangzhou?
The chicken ribs that make it tasteless and discarded?
Well, in fact, the chicken ribs of Ken ○ Ji fried chicken nuggets are still very tasty and delicious~ Now the electric grilled chicken cutlets in the night market taste good.
For an area that can only be reached through the vast sand sea of the four counties of Hexi, there are also worries on the way about the Qiang people and the Xiongnu tribes such as Lu Shui, Xiu Tu, and Ganlu, as well as the small tribes such as Kunjian and Xiaoyue, which are rebellious, just like the Qi people that Li Shushi needs to face in Xihe, it can be said that the Han has relaxed its control over it since the time of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty.
However, the significance of the Western Regions to the grassland peoples is completely different. If the Xianbei people can control or even annex Wusun, one of the largest countries in the Western Regions, then they can use this as a platform to gradually control the entire Western Regions, and when the time comes, the danger of the Xianbei people who have obtained enough materials and strategic space is obviously incomparable even in the Tanshihuai period.
So strategically speaking, this Xianbei move is not extremely clever, but it is also extraordinary.
The presence of a large army on the border of Wusun will certainly arouse the vigilance of the Wusun people, but just like those aircraft carriers of the hodgebord empire in another plane, the deterrent effect is by no means something that can be ignored by leisure. If Wusun had a strong leader, they might be able to ignore this threat, but now at the critical moment when Wusun Lao Wang is seriously ill and his three sons are fighting for Wang Weiming, Xianbei, a powerful and dangerous external force, may become the last fight for some people to turn the tables.
If it is really possible to surrender the army without a fight, then it is a good thing for the Xianbei tribes who participated in the war, and only a little grain and grass can be exchanged for a large amount of predictable materials and wealth, I believe that no one will complain about such a bloodless war.
Even the Wusun people have a very high patriotic sentiment and refuse the intervention of the Xianbei people, but as the Xianbei people are stationed on the Wusun border for a long time, no matter how strict the monitoring is, it will be relaxed due to domestic disputes. At that time, as long as Kuitou and Qianman make some small moves in the Wuwei area, create some friction, and make a posture of going south to confront Dong Zhuo, then the Wusun people, who were originally more focused on the country, will definitely step up the pace of domestic struggle even if they don't think that the threat will be temporarily eliminated, so that even if the defense on the surface is still very tight, it will inevitably be a little lax in the details.
What's more, if it is normal, they will focus on Xianbei, and if those famous generals of Xianbei do not move, the Wusun people will feel at ease. After all, unlike the land of the Han people, there are many cities, Wusun and other countries in the Western Regions are either mainly nomadic life, or the population is really small to the point that it is slightly inferior to some large counties of the Han Dynasty.
"According to our information, although Wusun is known as the hundreds of thousands of people who control the strings, but with your understanding of the Hu people, the water among the hundreds of thousands of people naturally knows, and although Wusun Kunmi unified the two divisions of the original division of the large and small Kunmi, but the small Kunmi still retains a certain number of troops, although not much, but still disperses the available troops of Wusun. If the Takayanagi soldiers can still have 40,000 elite soldiers, the strategy of using surprise troops to advance does have the conditions to defeat the Wusun people. As long as the main force of the Wusun people is defeated, the Xianbei army can slowly advance and conquer their capital city of Chigu Castle in one fell swoop. As for the surprise military order of tens of thousands of people to march quietly from the eyes of the Wusun people, although it is not easy, it is by no means impossible, just choose an inaccessible road and kill all the people you meet. The generals must know more about this than Confucian scholars like Confucianism, and I believe that the brother of the leader is the same. ”
"Xianbei people, especially those from the eastern Xianbei, are not afraid of Fuyu people taking advantage of the void, although the two places are thousands of miles apart, but Xianbei has made such a big move, and it has been so long, and it should be unreasonable for Fuyu Wang Wei Qiutai not to notice it. And Goguryeo's Pegu seems to have been very unhappy with the Xianbei people all these years, will they do anything? ”
Jia Xu finally spoke up, but Li Shushi always felt that he was not so much asking Li Ru as he was reminding Li Ru of what he had missed, or did he want to achieve some other purpose in this way?
Li Shushi never thought that Jia Xu, an old fox, would make such a low-level move lightly.
"At least one of the Duan Divisions, which occupies an important position in Xianbei in the east, has not moved, so it is not so easy for Wei Qiutai to take advantage. As for Bogu, that old guy can't even resist the private soldiers of Liaodong and Xuanwu Gongsun's family now, how dare he fight with the Xianbei people on the grassland. In addition, if the three major tribal alliances of Rulou, North Wofu and Southern Wofu are all mobilized, they can come up with about 20,000 soldiers, and the Hao, Mahan, Chenhan, and Benhan around Lelang County also have about 10,000 combat strength, as long as more than three of them are united, it will be enough to contain the Buyeongs. Judging from the fact that this battle is completely different from the previous style of Xianbei, this time I am afraid that the Xianbei people should have united several of the above-mentioned tribes to deal with the Buyeo people. Although no tribe dared to confront them with Buyeo's strength, if the Xianbei people supported them and secretly helped them make an alliance, these tribes had the ability to confront the Buyeo. Or it should be said that the Xianbei people care more about you and the state army than the Buyeo people, you can make them feel the danger more than the Buyeo people. ”
After explaining, Li Ru also glanced at Jia Xu suspiciously, but maybe the occasion was wrong, so he didn't say more.
"Well, it seems that the Xianbei people can indeed sit back and relax in the east, but ...... What about the west? ”
Jia Xu completely ignored Li Ru's complicated eyes, and waited until Li Ru finished explaining before continuing to ask slowly.
At this time, the doubts on Li Ru's face all receded, and they were replaced by an expression that was the same. But soon this expression turned into a slightly embarrassed hesitation, because ......
"Although there seems to be news that the frost kingdom in the west may also make some moves, but after all, we have been far away from the Western Regions for many years, and we can't even fully grasp the news of the Western Regions, let alone be in a country further west than the Western Regions."
"No, it's useful to have this information, after all, we don't want to keep our eyes on an opponent and be taken advantage of by an enemy hiding in the shadows. And if you can, maybe there's something you can use to make use of it. ”
"These are all the information we can provide, and we hope to be able to provide some help to Li Zhoumu's trip to the Western Regions."
"No, no, no, we are overjoyed to get so much news, otherwise the Western Regions would be blind to us."
The two sides were so polite, but it was obvious that a certain children's shoes still underestimated the strength of a certain uncle.
"Ah, that's right, Lord Xiangguo once commanded."
"Is there anything else Dong Gong needs to learn to complete?" knew that the other party would not be so kind and provide information for no reason.
"No, no, no, that's right. Dong Gong felt that Li Zhoumu went to the Western Regions for my Han Yang Wei, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with those emergencies with only 20,000 horses, so he was willing to support the Flying Bear Army with 10,000 people, and handed it over to General Ye Xiong to command. ”
Looking at Li Ru's smile like a smirking fox, Li Shushi and Lu Bu glanced at each other, not knowing how to answer.

If you don't fight, you will have to be beaten to death with a stick in order to develop the economy with peace of mind.
