Just when war clouds were gathering in Jingyang and other places and a storm was approaching, Longyou was experiencing peace and tranquility.

After the efforts of Yang Qing and others in the past two months, the counties in Longyou are not only prosperous, but all their industries have been restored. Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants all perform their duties and are in peace. The wounds of the war at the beginning of the year have been healed, and all the people are paying attention to

Ji Han's benevolent government, discipline, science and education all came to his heart.

On this day, Yang Qing had just finished his inspection of Guangwei County and returned to Shanggui, when he found an old friend from Shuzhong waiting for him in the lobby of the Governor's Mansion.

"Wen Wei, you are finally here."

The person who came was none other than Fei Yi. He was talking to Yang Xi. When he saw Yang Qing coming back, he stood up and greeted him: "Yi has met the envoy."

"Haha, no need to be polite, when did you arrive?"

Fei Yi replied: "We just arrived yesterday. Yi Zheng and Yang Biejia were guessing when the envoy would come back. They didn't want to see him today."

After the three of them sat down again, Yang Qing asked: "Where is the Prime Minister now?"

"The Prime Minister returned to Hanzhong eight days ago, and he asked me to bring a letter to the envoy." With that said, Fei Yi took out a wooden box sealed with a mud seal from his arms and handed it to Yang Qing.

Yang Qing took it and didn't intend to open it now. He handed it to Qin Kuang at the side and asked him to put it away first and look at it later when he returned to the study.

"As soon as Wen Wei arrives, great things will begin. I will send someone to invite General Wen Chang here later, and we can have a good discussion."

Fei Yi cupped his hands and responded: "It should be like this, it all depends on the envoy's arrangement."

Previously, Fei Yi asked Yang Qing to transfer him to Longyou. Although Yang Qing agreed, there was no suitable position for Fei Yi under his Yongzhou administration. In those days, Yang Qing was in a dilemma.

, finally got an idea.

When Zhuge Liang later approached Yang Qing to discuss matters in Liangzhou, he took the opportunity to propose that Fei Yi serve as an envoy from the imperial court to assist Wei Yan in pacifying the officials and people in Liangzhou. In this way, Wei Yan would be the main attacker, and Fei Yi would be the main caregiver.

achievement.

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and concluded that Fei Yi was indeed suitable as an envoy to appease the emperor. First of all, he was both an attendant of the emperor and a member of the prime minister's government, and he could fully demonstrate the sincerity of both the palace and the government.

Secondly, he had been sent to Soochow as an envoy. He was eloquent and experienced, and was indeed an excellent diplomatic candidate. Therefore, Zhuge Liang agreed to Yang Qing's proposal.

In this way, Yang Qing had an explanation for Fei Yi. After all, going to Liangzhou to recruit the common people was also going to the north to establish his achievements, which was enough for him to have a head start. As expected, Fei Yi was quite satisfied after knowing it.

Yang Qing was very grateful.

Half an hour later, Wei Yan arrived at the Governor's Mansion from the military camp outside the city. The three of them each greeted each other and took their seats with tea.

Yang Qing put down his tea cup and was the first to speak: "Wen Wei, since General Wen Chang has arrived, please announce the prime minister's order."

"yes."

Fei Yi cupped his hands, looked at the two men and said loudly: "The Prime Minister has ordered that a war between Wu and Wei is about to break out. This is a good opportunity for our Han Dynasty to regain Liangzhou, so the Prime Minister ordered the two princes to immediately prepare for the attack on Liang."

After a pause, he looked at Wei Yan and said: "General Wenchang, the Prime Minister ordered you to lead your troops to Nan'an County to garrison immediately. Now General Chen Shi's troops in Nan'an are also at the command of the general. The general can threaten Liangzhou nearby.

"

With that said, he took out a sealed roll of silk cloth from his arms and handed it over: "This is the Prime Minister's order."

Wei Yan took it and immediately opened it and looked at it. After a moment, he nodded slightly and asked: "There are only 5,000 troops under a certain command. Even if Chen Shi's troops are included, the number is only close to 10,000. Does the Prime Minister want a certain person to do this?"

Order troops and horses to capture the seven counties of Liangzhou?"

"Haha, of course not." Fei Yi said with a smile: "General Wen Chang, don't worry, the prime minister will soon transfer the five thousand former troops who returned to Hanzhong to rest under the general's command.

By then the army attacking Liang will number 14,000, plus the Qiang and Hu internal forces recruited by General Ma Dai, and the Yongzhou soldiers and horses from Commander Yang as backup, there will be no problem for the general to regain Liangzhou."

"I see, the prime minister's arrangements are indeed complete!" Wei Yan finally felt relieved after hearing that Zhuge Liang had so many backup plans.

"Does the Prime Minister have a clear order on when to send troops?"

Fei Yi replied: "The Prime Minister said that the day when the war between Wu and Wei begins is when our Han Dynasty regains Liangzhou. Within one or two months, the general must make an offensive posture and try his best to intimidate Xu Miao and other Wei officials to surrender. In addition, the lower officials also

I will follow the general to Nan'an to summon the officials and people of Liangzhou to surrender with the emperor's edict."

"I see, I understand." Wei Yan nodded.

Fei Yi raised his hand to Yang Qing again and said: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister said that as soon as the grain, grass and military supplies are supplied, they will be supplied by Yongzhou. In addition, the Prime Minister also asked your Majesty to pay close attention to the enemies in the east and be careful not to detour from the grassland to reinforce Xu Miao.

"

"This is Yang's responsibility, and he should do his best."

Yang Qing agreed with a smile, and then asked: "By the way, Wen Wei, will the Prime Minister come to Longyou to supervise the battle?"

"The Prime Minister said that the attack on Liang will be completely entrusted to Shi Jun and General Wenchang. He will sit in Hanzhong and have an overview of the overall situation.

This time Wu and Wei are fighting. Although most of Cao Wei's troops will be transferred to the east front, there is no guarantee that Cao Zhen in Guanzhong will not invade, so the prime minister has to keep an eye on the Wei army in Guanzhong in Hanzhong." Fei Yi replied.

Yang Qing smiled and said: "Are you just keeping an eye on Cao Zhen? I'm afraid the Prime Minister also wants to take advantage of the opportunity to make progress in Guanzhong, right?"

In the original history, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the war between Soochow and Cao Wei in the east to launch the second Northern Expedition. He first tried to attack Chencang, then attacked east and west and sent Chen Shi to attack Wudu and Yinping counties, and then took a direct attack in a roundabout way.

Guo Huai's reinforcements.

It was also Guo Huai who saw the opportunity quickly and led his army to retreat in time, so that Zhuge Liang was not blocked in Jianwei. Otherwise, he would not just lose Wudu. The two counties of Yinping were so cheap. If one of them was not good, the Wei army in Longyou would most likely be defeated.

will be severely damaged.

Of course, in this life, with Yang Qing as a butterfly flapping its wings hard, the situation in Kansai is very different from the original history.

With Longyou, the Han army has already taken the initiative in the war. This time Zhuge Liang is afraid that he will make more fierce moves.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It is clear to you that the Prime Minister does have this intention. After all, the Lord of Wu, Sun Quan, also sent an envoy to the court to ask the Han Dynasty to fulfill the alliance and send troops north to contain the Wei army. However, the Prime Minister

He just mentioned it to me, so I don’t know the more detailed information.”

Yang Qing smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then lowered his head to think. He wanted to think about what else he could do in Guanzhong besides assisting Wei Yan in capturing Liangzhou.

At this time, Wei Yanhu said, "In my opinion, it will not be easy for the Prime Minister to seize Guanzhong this time."

"Oh? How can you see it?" Yang Qing asked.

Wei Yandao: "The puppet Wei Dynasty has just been defeated miserably at the hands of our great Han Dynasty. Even though it is about to fight Soochow in the east, it will never relax its vigilance on the western front.

Moreover, Cao Zhen, Zhang He, and Guo Huai are all good generals in the world, and with them guarding Guanzhong, it is probably impossible for the Prime Minister to capture Guanzhong with only 40,000 to 50,000 troops in Hanzhong."

"That makes sense."

Yang Qing praised him and secretly said that Wei Yan was indeed one of the most powerful generals in the Han Dynasty, and his vision was indeed accurate.

If it hadn't been for this person's reminder, he would not have come to his senses yet. He would have just thought about his own advantages and even forgotten that in this life, due to the changes in the situation in Yongliang, Cao Wei would pay more attention to the battlefield on the Western Front, and it is very likely that he would fight against the Han army in the future.

There are more Wei troops than in history.

"However, the Prime Minister only intends to go north, and does not necessarily want to eat up Guanzhong. The decision on how to use troops must be based on the future situation." Fei Yi interjected.

Yang Qing nodded and said: "That's true. The Prime Minister can make his own judgment on how to use the army. We don't have to worry about it here. The successful recovery of Liangzhou is the top priority for the three of us right now."

"You're right, Liangzhou is where I should worry about."
