Cao Liang set up his camp in Ji County, and all the generals advised him to return to Luoyang or Chang'an. After all, the conditions in Longxi area were too difficult. How could Cao Liang, as the 195th master, endure such hardship?

As for the conquest of Liangzhou, several major governors can be presided over.

However, Cao Liang smiled and disagreed. Although he became the emperor, Cao Liang never had the airs of an emperor. He was still in the military camp, eating and living with ordinary soldiers, sharing hello and woe, and not enjoying any special treatment.

Therefore, Cao Liang did not plan to go back to Luoyang for the time being. Although the five counties in Longxi were taken down, the subsequent resettlement of refugees was still a relatively serious problem.

When Jiang Wei retreated, he set up a plan to move people into Shu, trying to move most of the population of the four counties in Longxi to Shu. However, due to the rapid loss of Jieting, the plan could only end up being miscarriage. Jiang Wei only moved a small part of the population, and most of the people were stranded in various parts of Longxi and became refugees.

The main reason for becoming a refugee is that when the Shu army retreated, in order to drive away the people who were forced to move and unwilling to leave the country, they either burned or scattered the houses of the people in various cities. The people of Longxi had no place to live, and could only follow the trend.

However, due to the lightning of the Wei army, the Shu army fled in a hurry, leaving most of these refugees behind, and even used the refugee wave to stop the Wei army's pursuit. The Wei army could not attack the unarmed Longxi refugees, so the Shu army took this opportunity to escape.

The Shu army retreated, but only the Wei army was left with a mess. Countless hungry refugees were stranded in the Wei River area. They were hungry and cold and were on the verge of despair. There were countless refugees who died of cold and starvation every day, and countless people were struggling on the line of life and death.

Life is greater than the sky. Cao Liang ordered all battalions and divisions of the Wei army to stop pursuing the Shu army and immediately began to rescue these hungry and cold refugees, provide them with tents and rations, and help them build and repair houses to survive this harsh cold winter.

People are the most important, the country is the next, and the king is the least. Many people think that the words of ancient saints may be nonsense, but Cao Liang, who became emperor, has a deep understanding. After all, this is what the monarch and emperor said. Without the people and the common people, how can we talk about the country? Without the country, being an emperor is just a lonely person.

The Shu army can pursue, but it is not in a hurry. Destroying Shu is a strategic plan by Cao Liang, which requires a relatively long preparation. The people of Longxi cannot wait. If you save one day earlier, you can save more lives.

The Wei army took out their military rations and supplies to temporarily save the people from water and fire. Then Cao Liang planned to move these refugees back to their hometowns, pioneer and cultivate land, and gradually restore the people's livelihood and economy in Longxi.

In fact, the people's survival resilience is very great. As long as they are given a piece of land and have temporary shelter and food and clothing, they will soon be self-sufficient.

The land of Longxi is relatively abundant. This is the most important horse-raising base for the Wei State. At least half of the war horses used by the Wei army are from Longxi. In the future, Cao Liang will attack Shu Kingdom, and Longxi will become the most important forward base. If the people in Longxi live in seclusion and the fields are deserted, how can we provide support to the Wei army preparing to go to the expedition?

Therefore, rebuilding Longxi and restoring people's livelihood was the top priority before Cao Liang. He ordered all units of the Wei army to spare no effort to appease and rescue refugees. Even if the military's material difficulties were difficult, they should give priority to solving the needs of refugees.

As for Liangzhou, Cao Liang has no idea of ​​attacking yet. At least this winter will not be considered by Cao Liang. If he uses troops to Liangzhou, at least he will be mentioned on the agenda when spring is in full bloom.

But not attacking does not mean that Cao Liang knew nothing about the situation in Liangzhou. On the contrary, Cao Liang sent people from the Military Affairs Office to conduct large-scale infiltration and reconnaissance of Liangzhou in order to understand the situation in Liangzhou in a timely manner.

The news of the turmoil that occurred in Liangzhou quickly reached Ji County. Even Cao Liang was deeply surprised that the Wei army had not yet attacked, and Liangzhou had already killed each other. It seemed that God really wanted to destroy it, so he would make it crazy first.

Both Fu Ju, the governor of Liangzhou, were killed. Although Sima Yan and Guo Tong temporarily controlled Liangzhou, they also suffered heavy losses and had little strength. They had no strength to compete with the Wei army.

Deng Ai proposed to take this opportunity to launch a large-scale attack and easily defeat Liangzhou in one battle, but Cao Liang did not agree, believing that the Wei army has been busy relieving refugees for this period of time, and the military supplies and food were exhausted. However, the expedition to Liangzhou was a journey that required a thousand miles. Without sufficient logistical supply support capabilities, it was not enough to support such long-distance combat.

Even if the Jin army is now defeated, the centipede will die without being stagnant. If the Wei army is really ready to attack Liangzhou, it must be fully prepared.

Now Longxi is experiencing the most difficult moment. Although the Wei State is not short of food, grass and supplies, the long-lasting roads are difficult to transfer, which is the biggest bottleneck restricting the Wei army.

Only when the Chunnuan River opens and the Yellow River and the Wei River are frozen and unblocked, so that all the materials and food can be transported to Longxi by water, which can greatly alleviate the current dilemma of the Wei army.

Since ancient times, land transportation costs have been huge, so there is a saying that there is no grain transport for thousands of miles. The transportation of military rations has always sought water transportation, so that the sufficient supply of grain and grass materials can be ensured to the greatest extent.

This is also an important reason why Cao Liang insisted on taking down Chen Cang. As long as he took down Chen Cang, he could open the waterway passage into Longxi and continuously transport the source of grain and grass resources to Longxi and Liangzhou.

Therefore, before the Yellow River and Wei River thawed, the Wei army's food supply was basically in a state of scarcity. Even though the grain transport team from Guanzhong to Longxi was running around day and night, Longxi had a population of hundreds of thousands, and such a speed of grain transport was still a drop in the bucket. The Wei army did not have the logistics ability to launch an attack on Liangzhou at this time.

Although the current situation in Liangzhou is very conducive to the Wei army taking advantage of the situation, Cao Liang still did not choose to take risks. Only after the waterway is clear and the food and food resources are continuously transported to Longxi will Cao Liangliang consider the march to Liangzhou.

But the situation in Liangzhou was a long time. After the defeat of Fu Yu and his son, the Xianbei people Tufashuji took advantage of the situation to move south and swept across the Wuwei, Jincheng and Xiping counties in Liangzhou. Sima Yan and Guo Tong led their troops west to Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang, and the situation in Liangzhou was changed again.
