When Dong Huang was dealing with personnel matters, Zhang He, as a pioneer, had already completed the initial suppression of the Wudu people.

Wudu County is not a large county, and the population cannot be said to be small, but there are not many Han people that the government can control, and there are more people in Wudu County who are not subject to the king.

In addition to cities such as Xiabian, the capital of Wudu County, where Han Chinese are predominant, the wider mountainous areas are occupied by the Di people.

These Di people rebelled and surrendered, causing great trouble to the Han government.

In the original history, from Yang Fu's defeat of Ma Chao and being named the Taishou of Wudu, to Cao Cao's entry into Hanzhong, there must have been 120,000 Di people who moved away, but even so, the Di people in the Wudu area have not been completely relocated.

After Liu Bei entered Shu, there were also activities one after another, some pro-Shu and some pro-Wei, which became a pot of porridge.

During the Wuhu Rebellion, Li Te, a native of Di, established the Cheng Han regime.

However, unlike most of the Hu people, although the Di people were one of the main forces of the Wuhu Chaohua in later generations, in terms of civilization, they were relatively more sinicized, especially in terms of being good at farming, they were much stronger than the Huns, Xianbei and other Hu people. And because of their living environment and customs, they were more belligerent than the Han Chinese.

When Zhang He's subordinates handed over the other cities, they did not encounter any resistance, but the military operations outside the major cities were naturally resisted by the Di people.

Zhang He took the Qianghu servant army as the vanguard, while consuming both sides, looking for the weakness of the Di people, and defeated Yang Wan and other Di leaders in a row, and the strong end of the Di people leader took the initiative to attach to Zhang He, in just one month, Zhang He has opened up a relatively safe passage in Wudu County, and received 50,000 young immigrants, ready for the army to enter Shu through Wudu.

In Dong Huang's plan, of course, it is impossible for all the 700,000 young people to enter Shuzhong, but some of them will stay in Longxi, Wudu, and Hanzhong, and Dong Huang will be responsible for robbing Qianghu women or Han women to give them marriages, and give them Qianghu slaves to serve in daily life and farming; And they were reorganized into professional armies on the spot.

With these people, whether it is the suppression of the local or the Northern Expedition in the future, Dong Huang will have a trustworthy local force.

At present, Dong Huang has arranged 50,000 young men in the three counties of Hanyang, Longxi, and Jincheng, plus 50,000 in Wudu, a total of 200,000.

Even if the loss is huge, wait for Dong Huang's Northern Expedition a year or two later, these 200,000 people can at least pull out 100,000 elite soldiers!

The remaining 500,000 young men will continue to follow Dong Huang into Shu, and in Dong Huang's plan, 100,000 people may be left in Hanzhong, and the remaining 400,000 will all go into Shu.

These 700,000 people will be the core of Dong Huang's third-echelon soldiers.

In Dong Huang's plan, the first echelon is also Dong Huang's most elite troops, naturally the 100,000 elite soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles, the second echelon is the 150,000 sturdy recruits who have had a certain amount of war experience and the elite of the troops surrendered along the way, and the third batch is these young and strong recruits and second-rate soldiers who have surrendered.

If all goes well, when Dong Huang hibernates in Yizhou for a year or two, there will be at least 300,000 first-class elites (third-order and fourth-order soldiers) and 700,000 second-rate elites (at least second-order soldiers) million-strong army.

As for whether Yizhou can afford to support so many people? Isn't Dong Huang robbing several states and counties, and besides, there are still many local wealthy families in Yizhou, anyway, Dong Huang has only been in this world for a little more than two years, and it is enough to suffer the wealthy families in Yizhou.

In the last six months to a year in this world, Dong Huang will definitely want to go to war and plunder with a stud, and it doesn't matter when the time comes.

An army of millions will come out and see who in the world can stop it!

Anyway, for Dong Huang, as long as he gets enough war points and defeats as many war agents as possible, he doesn't care if these countries in this world will be destroyed!

As a pioneer, of course, Zhang He is not just a simple matter of opening the road and building a bridge to eliminate the unsightly Di people on the road, he has never forgotten Dong Huang's main goal - to capture Yizhou!

Zhang He used his troops to change his skills, and while easily sweeping away the Wudu people, he also took the time to send troops to capture three important passes - Yangping Pass, Baishui Pass and Sword Pavilion!

The former is the only way to enter Hanzhong from Wudu, and the latter two are important passages from Wudu to Shu. Among them, the Sword Pavilion in history should have been built by Zhuge Liang, but because he felt the pressure of Dong Zhuo, in order to defend himself, Liu Yan of this time and space snatched Zhuge Liang's patent and built the Sword Pavilion there.

If these three passes are captured, then the capture of Hanzhong and Yizhou is almost an immediate preferability.

The result of the battle was mixed, and Xiahou Dun, who was responsible for capturing Yangping Pass, was blinded by the guard Zhang Wei in one eye.

Although it is said that Xiahou pulled out his eyes and killed Zhang Wei, who was overjoyed to seek to expand the results of the battle, he failed to win Yangping Pass after all.

Pang De, who was in charge of capturing Baishui Pass, fought bravely and took the unprepared Baishui Pass, but was frustrated one after another when attacking the Sword Pavilion.

The Sword Pavilion is majestic and Cui Wei, one husband is the pass, and ten thousand people are not open!

Even Pang De, who is the champion of the three armies, can't help it, the Sword Pavilion is too dangerous, and in the face of nature's miraculous workmanship, the white horse general Pang De is also at a loss.

Dong Huang didn't care about the defeat of Sword Pavilion and Yangping Pass, he didn't choose to take Wudu and attack the two places directly, but waited for the time to basically subdue the alien races around Wudu before the army was dispatched, so naturally he had a backhand.

At the beginning of June, Dong Huang's main army came to Pingguan in Yangyang.

At this time, Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu, the controllers of Hanzhong, were still discussing strategies to defend against the enemy.

Coincidentally, when Xiahoudun attacked Yangping Pass, it was actually just when Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu entered Hanzhong to fight with Hanzhong Taishou Sugu.

Historically, Liu Yan also sent Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu to Hanzhong this year to achieve the purpose of isolating the imperial court in the name of rice thieves. But he didn't want Zhang Lu to kill Zhang Xiu and attack Yizhou in turn.

It was precisely because Zhang Lu and Zhang Xian were fighting with Su Gu in the front, in order to ensure the back grain route, that Zhang Wei was asked to guard Yangping Pass, but Zhang Wei accidentally blocked Xiahoudun's sneak attack, and finally died in the hands of Xiahoudun.

Although soon after, Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu killed Hanzhong Taishou Sugu, but the army outside Yangping Pass let the two of them sit on wax!

Even if you count the Sugu troops who have just been annexed, they are only forty or fifty thousand soldiers, half of whom are newly surrendered, and the rest belong to Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu respectively.

In this case, let them face the invincible Dong Huang army, no wonder they will have no bottom in their hearts.

"I can only hold on to Yangping Pass and wait for the lord's reinforcements!"

As Liu Yan's henchman and the pawn sent to balance Zhang Lu, Zhang Xiu was still loyal and insisted on refusing to defend the pass.

"Yangpingguan ......"

Zhang Lu glanced at Zhang Xiu with some dissatisfaction: "Yangping Pass has fallen into disrepair for a long time, can it really stop Dong Huangjun's tiger and wolf army?" What's more, will Liu Yan really send reinforcements? ”

"As far as I know, Liu Yan wants to establish authority and punish to be arrogant, but he is entrusted with a matter of doing things, killing more than ten powerful people in the state, and the people are resentful. Qianwei Taishou Ren Qi proclaimed himself a general and raised troops to attack Yan. This year, Taishi asked Situ Zhao Qian, who was born in Yizhou, to unite with Jia Long, and Ren Qi attacked Liu Yan, Liu Yan is afraid that he will not be too busy to take care of himself, right? ”

There was no disrespect in Zhang Lu's tone.

The reason why he can be reused by Liu Yan seems to be because his mother was lowly to Liu Yan in exchange for being a little cow and a horse, Yizhou doesn't know how many people look at him and point fingers at him with jokes!

Moreover, the reason why Liu Yan used him was just because he took a fancy to his identity as a rice thief, hoping to use him to isolate the court to prevent Zhao Qian's incident from happening again.

So Zhang Lu must have resentment in his heart!

"Don't forget how your brother died! Your mother and family are still in Yizhou! ”

Zhang Xiu also sneered.

Of course, Zhang Xiu also knows that Dong Huang is terrible, but his family is also in Yizhou, so if he can keep it, he still wants to keep it!

"Humph!"

Zhang Xiu's words hit Zhang Lu's soft underbelly, and Zhang Lu was silent for a while.

Anyway, her mother was also spurred by Liu Yan for him, so he couldn't sell his old mother because of this!

What's more, his sisters, wives and children are still in Yizhou!
