Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 66 Yangmou

Now that there is a direction, and those who can fight and those who cannot fight have been sorted out, with Zhang Liao in place, Lu Bu's suppression of the Qiang rebellion began.

Because of the loss of control, for example, the Shui Shi clan supported Lv Bu in the crusade against the Qiang people today, so the first thing Lu Bu did was to take back the city occupied by the Qiang people. Zhang Liao and Hua Xiong divided their forces into three groups, creating the illusion that the army was leaving the city and attacking Luomenju to the west, attracting the Qiang people entrenched in Xixian County and Wangyuan to attack. Zhang Liao and Hua Xiong took the opportunity to wipe out the Qiang people, while Lu Bu Hit Luomenju directly, defeat the Qiang entrenched here, and dredge things.

Lu Bu's army was only 8,000, so he did not divide his troops to occupy the cities. After defeating the two cities of Xixian and Wangyuan, the two counties were no longer governed. magistrate.

After these days of running-in and testing, and the fact that Jiang Jiong has indeed been reused under Lu Bu's command, and Lu Bu has also shown his sincerity, the relationship between the two parties has also begun to warm up. Regarding Lu Bu's invitation, the Tianshui gentry did not refuse this time. People went to act as magistrates of the two counties temporarily, and sent some heroes of the clan to Lu Bu's command.

First, it can be regarded as a response to Lu Bu’s help during this period, and second, it is to use Lu Bu’s power to let the children of these families get some credit, so that they can enter official positions smoothly in the future. The difficulty will be much higher.

Lu Bu did not refuse the helpers sent by these families. There were indeed some talents among them. Jiang Xu, Liang Kuan, Zhao Qu, Yin Feng, and Yang Fu were the ones that Lu Bu valued more.

These six people are young talents with real talents, and they are not even a few years older than Jiang Jiong. They are just young and vigorous, and they want to make some achievements.

Lu Bu dispatched the five people according to their respective abilities, and the others were not left behind. Now that he is short of people, as long as the Tianshui gentry are willing to give, Lu Bu is willing to accept. He has a lifetime of experience as an emperor, and he can use as many people as possible to make the best use of them. It can also make those who work under him more comfortable in doing things. After all, most of what Lu Bu assigns is what these people are good at, so it is natural.

In this way, these people's favor towards Lu Bu was greatly increased. At this point, Lu Bu finally had the appearance of a powerful force. He had generals who were good at fighting, and capable officials who could coordinate the rear and stabilize the people. Go ahead without worry.

Until the end of August, the Qiang rebellion in Tianshui was basically pacified, and a large number of Qiang people were surrendered or driven to Longxi. Because Longxi refused to enter Lu Bu before, Lu Bu ignored the Qiang rebellion in Longxi.

Many of these Qiang people who were defeated by Lu Bu hated the Han army. They could not defeat Lu Bu, so they plundered everywhere in Longxi, making the whole of Longxi miserable. He could only have the cheek to send someone to Tianshui.

"Brother Yuan Shuo, we also obeyed others' orders before this, and we didn't intend to embarrass Marquis Ping Tao. I also hope that Brother Yuan Shuo can help to talk about it. If the Qiang chaos in Longxi is not dealt with, there will be endless troubles in the future!"

"I can't guarantee this, I can only try." Jiang Yuan nodded. At the beginning, they were not too different from Longxi's situation. The difference is that when the Qiang people were in chaos here, they also started to clean up together. , and the most important thing is that the Guanzhong gentry just came up with a plan, and they didn't care about anything in the future. Letting them handle it by themselves is tantamount to forcing them to Lu Bu's side.

In fact, Wang Yun really only hoped that the Longxi gentry would get rid of Lu Bu, but now Wang Yun is busy dealing with Dong Zhuo, although he is concerned about the Longxi affairs, it is not the main thing.

"It will be possible. Both Boyi and Zhong Yi have received great attention under Pingtaohou's command. Pingtaohou treats the Jiang family differently."

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan could only smile and deal with it. He felt a little complicated. As a father, he was naturally happy that his sons could be reused. Being able to receive preferential treatment from Lu Bu, more Jiang family members will be able to take a step forward in the future.

But the problem is also here, you have to follow Lu Bu to get these things, but for Lu Bu, Jiang Yuan is actually not too optimistic. Apart from being good at fighting, Lu Bu does not have many other advantages behind him. If the Jiang family really follows Lu Bu, the future will be How is hard to say.

What's more terrible is that Lu Bu obviously didn't do anything, and the Jiang family didn't do anything, but in the eyes of others, it seemed that the Jiang family had already established some kind of solid friendship with Lu Bu. I came directly to the Jiang family.

After seeing off the Longxi Pang family who came to ask for help, Jiang Yuan stood at the door for a long time, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "What a Ping Taohou, what a conspiracy!"

That's right, Lu Bu did nothing, but reused Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong brothers, and used Jiang's family according to their abilities. It seemed fair and just, but it always gave people a feeling that they were closer to the Jiang family. I noticed something was wrong, and I didn't know where it was wrong.

Jiang Yuan is sure that if he goes to talk to Lv Bu about this at this moment, Lv Bu will definitely agree, and he will agree very happily, because he was going to attack the Qiang people in Longxi, but now the nobles in Longxi are taking the initiative to show their favor, and he has no reason to refuse. The previous cold treatment was firstly to retaliate against Zhang Liao's bumping into walls before, and secondly, it also meant to beat him. Now he went to intercede by himself, and Lu Bu took advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, which gained both prestige and benefits.

But the Jiang family is even more convinced that they have taken refuge in Lu Bu. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, when Jiang Yuan mentioned it, Lu Bu immediately agreed.

Jiang Yuan didn't complain too much. In this day and age, who is not counted and who is not being counted?

Lu Bu can subconsciously make people feel this way. This method has proved that Lu Bu is not a general who only knows how to fight. He has extremely brilliant skills, but he has never heard of it before.

A person who has means, is good at fighting and knows how to endure, such a person may really become a great event in the future!

That's how people are. When you have only one choice left, you will naturally discover many advantages of the last choice, and you will have all the advantages that you could not discover before.

Naturally, Lu Bu is not very clear about these details. For him, he just did it casually. First of all, Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong are really good brothers. After Jiang Xu's arrival, Jiang Jiong obviously has a stronger drive. Transfer luck, there is a sense of wanting to compare with his elder brother, and was arranged by Lu Bu to lead the army alone, so that the two brothers would not fight.

Among the talents recruited by Tianshui this day, he is the only one who can lead an army alone. Although there are not many troops, this is also evidence of the close relationship between Lu Bu and the Jiang family.

Jiang Xiong didn't know that his actions indirectly forced the Jiang family into Lu Bu's arms. For him, Jiang Xu put too much pressure on him. He was the one he always wanted to surpass, and let the family know that he was no better than Jiang Xu. Poor, so as soon as Jiang Xu appeared, Jiang Jiong instinctively entered a state of defense, displaying his abilities almost crazily, and his words and deeds were full of aggression.

Lu Bu could feel the change in the Jiang family's attitude. When Jiang Yuan came to him this time, his attitude was much more humble, and there was a relationship between superiors and subordinates. Although he didn't know what happened, Lu Bu knew that he had succeeded. The family can now be counted as one of its own. After the first family is shaken, the rest of the family will be much easier.

For Jiang Yuan's request, Lu Bu directly agreed, and he wanted to take Longxi back.

However, in this campaign against the Qiang people in Longxi, Lu Bu took Zhang Liao as the vanguard, and Jiang Jiong was Zhang Liao's deputy general, not Song Xian or Cheng Lian.

Zhang Liao did not disappoint Lv Bu either, and joined forces with Jiang Jiong to take Xiangwu and Zhang County first, then moved eastward, took Pingxiang, and quickly captured Long County.

Lu Bu was not idle in the rear either. After taking Longxi and Tianshui, he might have to face Ma Teng and Han Sui. These two families were also the ultimate goal of Lu Bu's trip to Longxi. He wanted to completely occupy Xiliang with only 8,000 troops in his hand. It is okay to fight against the scattered Qiang people, but when it comes to Ma Teng and Han Sui's elite soldiers, 8,000 people are not enough.

Regardless of how Lu Bu dared to defeat the enemy with thousands of people in Tianshui, it was because the Qiang people had no rules and sneak attacks. In short, although Lu Bu's record from Luoyang to the present is brilliant, he often wins more with less. Behind it is that he leads basically the top elites in the world, while the opponents are all mobs.

The princes of the eight towns outside Hulao Pass, except for Gongsun Zan's Baima Yicong, were almost all recruits, and the same was true for Yuan Shao and others later on. Now facing the Qiang people in Xiliang, they are basically scattered soldiers gathered together. Without a subordinate, it is easy to be defeated by Lu Bu.

So far, the only record of fighting against the same elite army is Baima Yicong. Sun Jian's team is considered a sneak attack, which does not reflect the real combat power of Sun Jian's soldiers, so it is not counted.

But this time, after Lu Bu took Longxi, what he had to face was Han Sui and Ma Teng, whom Huangfusong, Dong Zhuo, and Zhang Wen could not do anything about. , so Lu Bu only did two things during Zhang Liao's conquest of Longxi, recruiting and training troops.

The defeated Qiang people and the strong men provided by the gentry clans, in short, Lu Bu had to have at least 10,000 soldiers and horses in addition to the 8,000 elite soldiers he brought before the end of the year.

According to the information obtained by Lu Bu, although Han Sui and Ma Teng were not as exaggerated as having an army of hundreds of thousands, they still had 30,000 to 50,000 troops.

But to hold the whole of Xiliang in his hands, this battle must be fought. In Lu Bu's plan, winning Longxi and Tianshui is the foundation. With these two counties, he can compete with Ma Teng and Han Sui Capital, and now he has basically obtained this capital, and the next focus will turn to the direction of Jincheng...
