Just as the Cao Wei Central Committee was busy dispatching troops to rescue Longyou, Yang Qing, who had been silent for a long time, finally led his troops to Xiangwu County, the county seat of Longxi County.

Longxi County was once the largest county in Longyou. At its peak, it led eleven counties including Didao, Lintao, Xiangwu, etc., but due to the institutional adjustment and the continuous Qiang chaos, there are only six counties left: Xiangwu, Zha, Lintao, Didao, Daxia and Heguan.

However, even so, the status of Longxi County is still very important. This place is adjacent to Nan'an in the east, Xiping in the west, Jincheng in the north, and Qiangzhong in the south. It is a must-pass way to Liangzhou in the Western Regions, and it is actually a must-fight for military strategists.

Today, the prefect of Longxi of Cao Wei is a native of Guzang, a native of Wuwei. He is both civil and military, has outstanding talents, and was once respected by Cao Cao. He has been an official in Longyou for more than ten years and is deeply loved by the local people.

At this moment, You Chu looked at the rigorous formation of the army under the city and the five or six thousand Han soldiers with excellent weapons frowned. When he saw the general flag hanging high in front of the Han army, his face was even more bitter. The general flag read General An Han, the Prime Minister joined the army to lead the Hanzhong prefect, and the Marquis of Linchangting Yang.

In recent years, Yang Qing made many strange plans in Shu, and his official position was suddenly promoted. His reputation may not be obvious in the Central Plains, but it is still quite famous in the Guanlong territory. Especially after Qingcha became popular among the upper class of Yongliang, his name can be widely known.

Yang Qing led his army to Xiangwu City after Nan'an County was recovered by Gao Xiang. Xiangwu City was adjacent to Fengdao County, the capital of Nan'an County, and the two places were separated by a Wei River. Therefore, it took only half a day after Yang Qing set out from Fengdao to cross the Wei River to arrive at Xiangwu City.

In order to shake the morale of the Xiangwu military and civilians, Yang Qing came here not only to bring 5,000 troops from the headquarters, but also brought the surrendered soldiers of Nan'an County, and asked them to show up and incite the military and civilians in the city to surrender.

"The elders and fellow villagers of Xiangwu, the Han Dynasty's King's Army has recovered Nan'an, Tianshui, Guangwei, Anding and the two prefectures of Yongliang will be returned to the Han Dynasty.

We were originally the people of the Han Dynasty. Only because Cao usurped the throne and the pseudo-Wei brutality had to surrender and follow the thief. Now the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and Prime Minister Zhuge love the people as their sons and implemented benevolent policies. Only then did we raise troops to rescue us north and be in a state of great heat.

We in Nan'an have already returned to Han anyway. Now as long as the villagers open the city gate to welcome the army, the royal army will definitely not violate the law and treat the people with kindness and righteousness!

The elders and fellow villagers of Xiangwu, the Han Dynasty's King's Army has recovered Nan'an, Tianshui, Guangwei..." dozens of Nan'an County soldiers, Yang Qing, kept shouting loudly.

"Mr. Do you want to send troops to fight and harass the Shu army? If the traitors in Nan'an continue to shout like this, the officials and people in the city will probably be bewitched by it." The chief ma Yong said to You Chu.

You Chu shook his head and said with a smile: "No, I believe in the military and civilians of Xiangwu."

Yang Qing rode on the horse, squinted his eyes and looked at the movements on the head of Xiangwu City, and found that the effect of shouting did not seem to be very big. Except for the moving look at the beginning, the defenders on the city were no longer moved.

"Hey, is the loyalty of the officials and people of Longxi County to Cao Wei so high?" Yang Qing secretly said in his heart.

What he didn't know was that You Chu had already made a move to relieve the people before the army arrived. The soldiers and people in the city were grateful for You Chu's past kindness, so everyone followed his orders and obeyed his orders.

It turned out that after the news of the fall of Tianshui, Nan'an and other places reached Longxi County, You Chu summoned the officials and civilians in the city and said to them: "I, the prefect, have no kindness to you. Now that the Shu army has reached Longyou, the officials and civilians of all counties have defected to respond to the Shu army. This is also the time for you to gain wealth. The prefect wants to stick to the county for the country, and righteousness will surely die. Please take my head to join the Shu army."

Everyone cried bitterly when they heard this, and said, "We should live and die together with the Ming Mansion, and have no two hearts."

You Chu said again: "If you don't want to kill me, I'll give you some advice. Now the two counties in the east have already defected to the Shu army. They will definitely lead the Shu army to invade Longxi. We can't stand it. When the reinforcements from the court arrive, the enemy will retreat.

At that time, we will be able to gain rewards for our county. If reinforcements from the court cannot get out and the Shu army is in a hurry to attack the city, you will tie me up and surrender to gain wealth. It will not be too late to this time."

Hearing what he said, the officials and civilians burst into tears and said that they would work together with the prefect.

Acropolis.

In this way, You Chu's precautionary measures strengthened the perseverance of the officials and people in the city and resolved Yang Qing's method of calling.

Yang Qing had no choice but to ask the county soldiers to stop shouting, and drove him forward, stopped outside the range of the Wei army's bow and arrow, shouting: "I am Yang Qing, the general of the Han Dynasty, and ask the Lord of Youfu to come out and speak."

"You are here, General Yang is polite." You Chuyizhuans the heart guard railing and replied.

Yang Qing bowed and said, "I heard that you are a noble man from Longxi. How lucky is Yang to see him today?"

"The general is too rewarded." You Chu replied lightly.

Yang Qing said: "You Fujun, there is no need for Yang to say much about the current situation in Longyou. The Duke also had the Han fortune and was a Han minister. Now the king's army went north to recover the lost territory. Why didn't the Duke open the city and surrender and return to the Han Dynasty?

In this way, it would be wonderful to not use weapons, not to fight, and to be free from public officials and ranks, and to be safeguarded and the people would be free of obstacles."

"General Yang's kindness, You're grateful. I won't say much about other silences. As long as you can cut off Long, the reinforcements from the east cannot go to Long. In a month, our Longxi officials will not attack and accept themselves. If you can't, you will be exhausted."

Yang Qing remained silent after hearing this, and then smiled and said, "You Fujun's words are true. But Yang thought that whether our army could cut off Long and recover Longxi County had nothing to do with the regaining of Longxi County. How could Yang lead the army to come and return empty-handed?"

Humph, You Chu had a good plan and wanted to delay time with this. Originally, he had really hit the point in history. After Jieting defeated Ji Han in the first northern expedition, the officials who surrendered to Han in Tianshui, Nan'an and Anding were all settled by Cao Wei Qiu Hou. Only You Chu was the only one who was awarded the title of Marquis for his contribution to defending the city. But now that he is here himself, how can he be satisfied?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Since that's the case, please go back, and you and I will see the real chapter." You Chu didn't expect that Yang Qing would not take him over. He thought that the general of Shu would be moved to leave after hearing this proposal, but unexpectedly, Yang Qing was so difficult to deal with.

Yang Qing's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "You Fujun, Yang thought about it carefully again. He felt that what the Gong said just now was indeed reasonable. It was just that someone came to attack Longxi under the order of Prime Minister Zhuge. Can't he just go back empty-handed, right?"

"Which is in accordance with the general's intention?" You Chu saw that Yang Qing seemed to be loose, and his tone was softer.

Yang Qing said: "I have a suggestion. As long as the Duke agrees, Yang will immediately lead the army to retreat."

"I wish to hear it carefully." You Chu was intrigued.

"Please write what you said just now into a document. You and I will sign your names on it, and then give Yang a batch of food and grass. In this way, the soldiers and civilians in Xiangwu will not be subject to military wars. Yang can also take the letter of appointment and food and grass back to work with the work. It is the best of both worlds. I wonder if You Guojun is willing?"

"this......"

You Chu didn't expect that Yang Qing had such a condition. He wrote the letter of invitation to leave a handle. The same is true for giving food and grass. In the future, the court would inevitably find it suspected of colluding with the enemy and supporting the enemy when asked about it.

He was a little reluctant to agree, but Yang Qing's proposal was reasonable. Many officials and soldiers in the city were moved and looked at him with bright eyes, hoping that he would respond to this matter.

You and Chu were embarrassed, so they had to use a delay and replied, "Please ask General Yang Rong to go back and discuss with everyone. This matter is not something that You can decide."

"Okay, Yang will wait for the Duke for one night, please reply tomorrow morning."
