Han counter current

"This time, I let this guy take advantage of it, but hehe, our army has already taken Xuzhou, and our troops are pointing directly at the land of Qingji, and it is only a matter of time before we take Hebei.

Chen Feng, your delusional attempt to occupy such a long and narrow territory from Liaodong to Xiliang is simply suicidal. As long as one of them is broken, I will definitely cause you heavy losses. "

The name of the hero of troubled times is not for nothing. Don't look at Chen Feng taking advantage of him. Now Cao Cao doesn't pay attention to defeating opponents with military force.

Chen Feng's biggest weakness is that the land he occupies is too narrow and long, even if he faces north, he has expanded a lot of land on the grassland.

You know, from Liaodong to Xiliang, how to govern and how to defend such a long distance are difficult problems. Cao Cao is waiting for Chen Feng to make a fool of himself.

Chapter 505 Sweeping the Rear 1

When all the main forces of Cao's army retreated and the two sides jointly abandoned the surrounding areas of Luoyang, the battle was considered to have come to an end.

Cao Cao took the initiative to return the enemy prisoners. When many Qiang prisoners were returned, they were a little confused. After all, before this, none of the coaches they followed took them seriously.

In order to show his sincerity, Chen Feng also released the wounded Cao soldiers captured from Chang'an first. As for the rest of the prisoners, including Zhong Yao and others, they continued to be imprisoned.

These prisoners of the Cao army were all determined to serve Cao Cao, and many of their family members were under Cao Cao's control, so they could not be recruited to surrender.

However, Chen Feng was unwilling to let them go like this. In addition, after occupying Chang'an, there was still a lot of physical work to be done, so Li Ru temporarily left these people as free labor.

Millions of people flooded into Chang'an, and then migrated to various places in Xiliang. This was a huge project. As the person in charge of this project, Li Ru was very tired during this period.

"Finally you're back, Wen You, you've worked hard during this time, and you've contributed a lot to the settlement of millions of refugees."

After stepping into the gate of Chang'an, Chen Feng only had time to look at the ancient city. Because he was too hasty before, he didn't stay in Chang'an much.

"My lord, I am serious. This is my job. Besides, this plan was proposed by me, so it should be perfected by me.

Now, Cao Jun has retreated and will not attack in a short time. We should have more than half a year to digest the territory we have occupied.

However, [-] Han Chinese troops coveted our Xiliang land, and the resettlement work for millions of people has not been done well. The most important thing is that Xiliang land is different from other places because there are too many Qiang tribes here.

How to ensure the peaceful coexistence of Han and Qiang is a difficult problem.As long as this difficulty can be resolved, it is not a problem to stabilize Xiliang. "

Li Ru is obviously familiar with the situation in Xiliang, and since he proposed this plan, he naturally knows how to perfect it.

The Qiang tribes are entrenched in various places in Xiliang. Among them, there are not only contradictions between the Qiang people and the Han people, but also conflicts among the Qiang tribes.

In the land of Xiliang, the folk customs are tough and do not obey discipline. Most Qiang warriors only recognize their fists. Dong Zhuo was able to dominate the eastern part of Xiliang at the beginning because of his prestige and fists.

Later, Han Sui and Ma Teng were able to rise in the west of Xiliang because of their resourcefulness and bravery. However, they never really conquered the Qiang tribe.

Different from these heroes in troubled times, what Chen Feng wants is to completely assimilate the Qiang tribe and make the Xiliang land his own, so he faces even greater difficulties.

Long before going south, Chen Feng collected relevant information and consulted Ma Dai and others, so he was prepared for the difficulties he was about to face.

"I believe that all problems are inseparable from the word benefit. Now, our army has entered Xiliang, and we have repelled Han Sui and Cao Cao, proving our strength with our fists.

Next, what we have to do is to use our interests to make the local Qiang people submit and obey us, Wen You, have you made clear statistics on the situation of the Qiang tribe? "

After the battle with Cao Cao, Chen Feng once again realized the gap between himself and Cao Cao. These days, he constantly reflected on his own shortcomings, and there was less laughter and slapstick in his words.

"The Baima Qiang, Yelang Qiang and other tribes refused to accept discipline for a long time. They also followed Han Sui to attack Chang'an before. Now, although our army has entered Xiliang, they are full of hostility towards us and have attracted many Qiang tribes to fight against our army. .

Shaodangqiang was originally the strongest, but the old king Shaodang died in battle when he attacked Chang'an before. Now Shaodangqiang is torn apart and can be divided and gradually subdued.

Those who are closest to our Han regime are the many Qiang tribes in the land of black mountains and white waters, but they are only close to the Han regime, and they are not familiar with us, so they cannot be said to be loyal to us. "

Li Ru nodded. He was responsible for most of the affairs in Xiliang. Naturally, he had to clarify the situation first. After clearing his throat, Li Ru continued to report.

"As far as I know, most Qiang tribes are still willing to conduct market trade with the Han people, but there are often treacherous businessmen who entrap the Qiang people.

Among the Qiang people, there are many reckless and impulsive people. Once they are calculated, they always take extreme measures to retaliate, and then it is easy to cause the two clans to fight.

When Dong Zhuo was in Xiliang, he killed countless rebellious Qiang warriors with a butcher knife, and at the same time tried his best to protect the interests of the Han people. Therefore, while intimidating the Qiang people, he also won the support of the Han people.

But this was just a stopgap measure. Han Sui and Ma Teng's later achievements depended more on the support of the Qiang tribe. Ma Teng's wife was originally the daughter of a handsome Qiang tribe. "

After talking so much, Li Ru finally stopped, and the general meaning has been made very clear. Next, it depends on how Chen Feng decides.

After thinking for a long time, Chen Feng frowned. The situation in Xiliang was more complicated than expected. Presumably, this was the main reason why Cao Cao was able to abandon Xiliang so readily.

Compared with the grasslands, the Qiang people and Han people in Xiliang have lived together for many years, and they have a great influence on each other. Although there are feuds, there are also intermarriages, which are not simply the relationship between Han and foreign races.

If it was on the grassland, Chen Feng could use the butcher knife in his hand to drive away the aliens, forcing them to surrender and become his slaves, but this method is not applicable here.

"The land of Xiliang, I must occupy it, even, I have to digest it in a short time, the war must be launched, but before that, I will send people to visit the Qiang people one by one.

Wen You, go prepare. For those Qiang tribes who are willing to get close to me, prepare generous gifts and tell them that obeying me is their wisest choice.

As for those Qiang tribes who want to fight against us, hum, I will let them know my style. "

Unable to find a better solution, Chen Feng could only grope slowly, but he must never let go of the butcher knife in his hand. The Qiang people fear power and respect warriors. Chen Feng must also show his brave side.

"Then, what about after the battle? We will defeat or even wipe out those Qiang tribes who hate us, but after that, we have to find a way to solve the problem of Han and Qiang coexistence."

"Set up a market, send officials to take charge of this matter, what we did in Youzhou, we will do what we do here, temporarily classify the Qiang people as second-class people.

They are one level higher than the Huns, but lower than the Han people. Under my rule, they are not allowed to make trouble, otherwise, I will let them know my methods.

Wen You, don't think too much, the trouble of the Qiang people is actually the same as that of the Xiongnu and Xianbei, as long as we are strong enough, we can talk about everything else, move the laws from Youzhou here and enforce them. "

"law?"

"Yes, there is a law to follow in everything. It is the law. I will publish the list and find relevant talents. I will use the law to govern Xiliang well."

"This, this subordinate takes orders,,,,,,"

Chapter 506 Sweeping the Rear 2

After receiving Cao Cao's order, Cao Jun of Guangwei finally walked out of the city gate one by one. Although they were ridiculed and humiliated by the enemy, Cao Zhen and Cao Chun tried their best to restrain their emotions.

In the end, only about 7000 people were able to leave Guangwei alive. During the time they were trapped in Guangwei, they lacked food and clothing, let alone medicine.

Many wounded soldiers died in the torment of pain. If it wasn't for Ma Dai's lack of troops and the fact that his subordinates were mostly cavalry, Ma Dai might have taken the city of Guangwei long ago.

After sending this group of people away, in the land of Xiliang, for the time being, only the Hanzhong army is still making trouble.After tossing and tossing for a long time, Chen Feng finally wanted to calm down Xiliang.

"Report, my lord, General Xu Huang is here to report that our Ma Tie Department defeated the vanguard of the enemy army six days ago and beheaded the vanguard general of the enemy army. Yesterday General Ma Chao led his army to attack the enemy camp and killed thousands of enemies.

Now, the remaining soldiers and horses of the enemy army are huddled in the camp and dare not go out to fight, but it seems that there are still enemy troops coming from the direction of Hanzhong. "

The messenger conveyed the battle report from the front for the decision makers in the rear to discuss a solution. After repeated battles, Chang'an's supplies were also exhausted. At this time, it may be difficult to free up more manpower.

"Zhang Lu, he is really courageous. Cao Cao has retreated, but he still refuses to give up. After being defeated by our army, he still has the courage to increase his troops."

Hearing the reports from his subordinates, Chen Feng was annoyed. For a long time, in this troubled world, Zhang Lu was unknown, which also made Chen Feng look down on him.
