"After I defeated the Wuhuan people, I took their strength and repaired the Grand Canal for our Liang Kingdom. As long as the canal runs through the north and south, it will not be a problem to establish the capital of Youbeiping. I have decided on this matter. You don't have to discuss it anymore." Zhang Xiu took a breath and said seriously and in a deep voice.

Zhang Xiu was the founding king and had much greater power than the usual king. There was only one person who could stop Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu himself.

The civil servants did not dare to resist Zhang Xiu. They looked at each other for a moment, but had to agree to it, "No."

Everyone quickly left the hall. Fa Zheng said to his colleagues: "Everyone. Although there is floor heating and a kang, it is not difficult to bear the winter in Youbeiping at night, but it is also difficult to bear the day."

"Let's talk about it then. Maybe Your Majesty is just a mess for a while? You said too. You are not hard to endure winter in Youbeiping and difficult to endure during the day. Your Majesty may have been staying for a few days, so he can't stand the weather and migrate the capital back to Luoyang?"

Ju Su looked back at Fa Zheng and said.

"Oh." Fa Zheng sighed and nodded in a depressed manner. He has been in poor health since childhood. When he thought that he would be an official in Youbeiping in the future, he would have nightmares at night.

As Zhang Xiu's edict went down, the troops between Hanoi and Bingzhou began to be mobilized. They were stationed in Henei County. Hu Cheer, who was controlled by Taishici, 30,000 Han, Qiang, and Hu cavalrymen headed north, and Zhang Yan and Hu Zhen led 20,000 infantry to lower the defense south.

Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and others from Jizhou did not take the opportunity to take action, but watched coldly and watched Zhang Xiu's troops mobilization completed.

It's spring.

The land of Liang State was from south to north, and countless people began to reclaim fields and were in full swing. At the beginning of the year, it was in spring.

Zhuge Liang, the Diannong School Captain of Hedong County, has been working for a year. He has accumulated a lot of work experience and has done much more this year than last year.

The newly appointed Bingzhou Governor Zhuge Jin faced Chunfen for the first time and did a little worse than his younger brother. He was a little busy.

Although Bingzhou is ruined, as long as there is no further war, it will surely prosper.

Liangzhou.

Wuwei City, in the Western Regions Protectorate.

Yan Xing was wearing a thin dress and playing with a spear. Every move was vigorous and powerful, just like a tiger going down the mountain. After a set of spear techniques, he warmed up his body. He came to the stone lock next to him again, bent down and grabbed the stone lock and started exercising.

Since he was in charge of Wuwei and became the vassal of the Western Regions, he has not led his troops to fight. On several occasions, he has just sent his subordinates to fight.

However, his martial arts did not fall apart. Not only did he practice spears, but he also practiced his bow and horses frequently.

He knew a truth deeply. Liangzhou is a border area. Although there is no war now, perhaps one day the war will suddenly break out.

It is necessary to repair spears, polish armor, exercise martial arts, and train troops.

"Da da da da da da da da!!!" A sound of horse hooves sounded, and then a soldier rushed to Yan Xing panting.

Yan Xing looked at the soldier with a very frightened expression and asked, "What happened?"

"Report to the General. The Xianbei Grand Chanyu Bu Dugen, and the Grand General Kebien led the army of Kongxian to 200,000, which was not far from Liangzhou."

The soldier wiped the sweat from his face and reported it.

The personal soldiers around him all changed their faces, and even Yan Xing's face shook slightly. Two hundred thousand hollow strings? Even if most of the Xianbei were light cavalry and there were no siege equipment, this number was scary enough.

"I ordered Li Cheng to lead 5,000 troops to guard Zhangye, and Wu Feng to lead 5,000 troops to guard Xijun. I led 10,000 people to guard Wuwei. I asked the officials to send people out to move all the people into the city immediately. In addition, I sent people to ask for help from the Qiang-guarding Captain Li Li, General Jiang Jie, and General Qu Yi."

Yan Xing took a deep breath, and after the initial fright, he returned to calmness and issued an order with great clarity in his oral language.

"promise."

The personal soldiers took notes one by one and went down to pass the order.

Yan Xing exhaled, returned to his study room and sat down. After writing a letter, he sent people to Bingzhou.

After putting down his pen, he lowered his head and pondered.

From the perspective of farming, Bu Dugen, Kebineng's invasion of the south this time is extremely disgusting and will delay the spring plowing of a state.

However, Liangzhou has a vast land and sparse population, and it cannot produce much grain. If there is no spring plowing, there will be no spring plowing. Because the land is vast and sparse population, the people can quickly migrate into the city to defend.

He has 20,000 elite soldiers here, and he is divided into three counties.

The governor of Qinzhou and the governor of Liangzhou each had some troops, so there was no problem in defending the city. There were also 40,000 people including Qu Yi, Li Li, Jiang Jie and others between Qinzhou and Liangzhou.

"General Pang De has gone to Bingzhou, otherwise we will be more at ease." Yan Xing sighed and said.

Outside the city.

Countless people brought their families into Wuwei City.

"Hurry, hurry!!! If you don't hurry up, the Xianbei people will come." The officials urged.

"Wow wow wow wow!!!" The doll was crying. The old man and the young man were struggling, but the young and strong were fierce, almost everyone was equipped with bows and swords. After entering Wuwei, they took the initiative to go to the Protectorate's Mansion to report and ask for the garrison.

Yan Xing ordered all these young and strong men to be included.

Not only Wuwei, Zhangye, and Xijun are the same.

Three days later.

morning.

According to the Ma Ma report, the Xianbei 200,000 Kongxian was only about ten miles away from Wuwei City. Yan Xing ordered the city gate to be closed, but he was wearing neat armor and walked up to the northern city gate with a spear in his hand, watching outside the city.

The ground began to tremble first. A black dot appeared in the north, and then the black gang of light cavalry rolled up dust in the sky and brought countless cattle and sheep.

"There are really 200,000 people, it's not a false statement." Yan Xing's face became more and more serious after he let out a breath.

"Don't be afraid. There are many food and grass in the city. They don't have siege equipment, so it will be no problem for us to stay for two years."

Yan Xing turned his head, swept his solemnity, showed a hearty smile, and said with a laugh.

"Oh oh oh!!!" The soldiers were very motivated and waved their weapons to respond to Yan Xing.

Two hundred thousand Xianbei cavalry stopped, and the white air emitted by the war horses and people formed a terrifying white mist. On average, they each had three or four horses with tents, jerky meat, blankets, weapons, etc.

Among the army, there are two big men.

The Great Shanyu Bu Dugen, and the Grand Marshal Ke Bineng. They were both born into Xianbei nobles.

The Xianbei tribe was originally just a tribe living in the northeast of the Han Dynasty and was enslaved by the Huns. The Huns often plundered the Xianbei wives and daughters as slaves, and the Xianbei people lived a humble life.

Later, the Huns were defeated by the Han people. The Northern Huns fled, and the Southern Huns arrived in the Hetao area and became the lackeys of the Han people.

This huge grassland was occupied by the Xianbei people.

The title of the Great Shanyu came from the Huns. However, the Xianbei tribe did not have any left wise kings or right wise kings, only the commanders of each tribe, and it was a tribal alliance.

The Great Shanyu Budugen is the leader of the tribal alliance, while the Grand Marshal Kebineng is the leader of another powerful Xianbei tribe.

"Brother, the people of Liang are wary. And I heard that Yan Xing, the protector of the Western Regions of Liang, is brave and good at fighting, and is brave enough to be a thousand men. He is now weak in military force and dare not go out of the city to fight with us. But if we attack the city, we will definitely be bleeding."

Bu Dugen looked up at Wuwei City in front of him, sootheed the restless black war horse, and turned to Kebi Neng.

He is 32 years old this year, when he was young and strong, with a large saber saber hanging around his waist. His clothes are all dressed as grassland people, leather clothes and leather hats.

"Yes. We took Yuan Shao's benefits to harass Liangzhou. There is no need to let our warriors bleed in vain under such a strong city."

Ke Bineng nodded and agreed.

He was one year older than Bu Dugen. He had a square face and wide mouth, which was extremely majestic, which made him a long-handled big sword. His martial arts skills came from the Han people.

The two of them were both powerful people in the Xianbei area and also Xianbei warriors famous for their bravery, known as the "Xianbei two heroes".

"But although you can't attack, you can also coerce and lure Yan Xing. Maybe it can do it?" Ke Bi Neng touched his chin, showing a treacherous look, and said.

"Brother, are you talking?" Bu Dugen's eyes lit up, and he narrowed his eyes.

Not long after, a Xianbei envoy who knew Chinese was riding a horse, broke away from the Xianbei formation, and came to the city of Wuwei.

"Brothers in the city, don't shoot arrows, I am an envoy. I want to see you General Yan Xing." The Xianbei envoy shouted at the city while riding his horse.

Under the flag of "Yan", Yan Xing leaned over and looked at it, waved his right hand, and ordered: "Let him in."

"promise."

The personal soldiers agreed and went down. Soon after, the heavy city gate was pushed open by two strong teams of soldiers. The Xianbei envoy walked in and the city gate was closed immediately.

The Xianbei envoy turned over and dismounted, followed a personal soldier up the city wall, entered the city gate tower, and saw Yan Xing sitting upright on the upper seat.

"General Yan. I am hereby the order of the Great Shanyu to discuss alliance with you." The Xianbei envoy bent down and saluted politely, saying in a deep voice.

"Alliance?!" Yan Xing's face showed surprise. He picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, and said, "Tell me, let me see."

"Now you Han people are fighting in a mess. Four parts of the world. General, you are brave and good at fighting. You have tens of thousands of elite soldiers under your command. Why don't you take the opportunity to seize Liangzhou? Our Grand Chanyu is willing to use 200,000 Kongxian as your backing." The Xianbei envoy said sincerely.

"In front of the two armies, I thought Bu Dugen sent an envoy over and had any wonderful remarks, but I didn't expect it to be such dirty words." Yan Xing sneered and stood up suddenly. Then he turned around and bowed to Dongfang, turned around and said to the Xianbei envoy: "I, Yan Xing, have been favored by the emperor, how could I bewitched by a villain like Bu Dugen? The person came. He dug him out of his ears and noses and drove him out of the city."

"promise."

Several personal soldiers standing in the city gate tower responded and rushed forward. The Xianbei envoy's face changed drastically, and he shouted in fear: "General Yan, General Yan. The two armies will not beheaded."

Yan Xing sneered when he heard this: "I am a dignified beam, when will I communicate with you Xianbei barbarians and envoys? Besides, I didn't kill you."

One of the personal soldiers pulled out a sharp knife and immediately cut off the man's ears and nose without waiting for the Xianbei envoy to speak.

The Xianbei envoy screamed and blew blood.

Two personal soldiers dragged out the miserable Xianbei envoys and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate and sent the man and horse outside the city.

"Get out." A personal soldier cursed and returned to the city, and the city gate closed.

The Xianbei envoy's face was distorted in pain. He glanced at Wuwei City with resentment, turned over with a trembling horse, and returned to the Xianbei formation.

"Da Shanyu, you want to make the decision for me. This is all done by the man Yan Xing. Look, look." The Xianbei envoy pointed at his lost nose and ears, crying heart-wrenchingly.

Bu Dugen, Ke Bineng's face was not good-looking. Bu Dugen looked at this person and cursed: "A real man. Without his ears and nose, what else do you have to live between heaven and earth? Come on, kill this person."
