The Three Kingdoms

"But Wu Guo is not a good stubble either!"

Ma Chao narrowed his eyes slightly.He said coldly: "Wei Guo forced us to withdraw from Guanzhong, and sooner or later we will enter Liangzhou, but Wu Guo wants to settle in Liangzhou, so I'm just afraid that we will eventually lead wolves into the house!"

"General. We can't stop a wolf, but if it's a wolf and a tiger, we may not be able to drive the wolf away!"

Meng Jian suggested with a smile: "Wu Guo and Wei Guo both want Liangzhou, why not let them talk about it later!"

"Wu Guo and Wei Guo are both shrewd people. It's so easy to drive away the wolves and tigers!"

Isn't Ma Chao a person who is complacent when he is hot, driving away wolves and tigers?Ordinary forces can be considered, but the two overlords of Wu and Wei are so smart that it is difficult to succeed: "I am afraid that before they fight, they will join hands to kill us, and at that time, the certain family will really be over! "

"General, at this point, do we have any other options?" Meng Jian shrugged and said lightly: "The general knows very well that if Wei Jun is allowed to sit firmly in Guanzhong, we will definitely not be their opponents, and we will be defeated sooner or later." They called in!"

"You're right, after all, you have to use Wu Guo to have a chance to block Wei Guo!"

Hearing this, Ma Chao's expression was a little bit, and finally he couldn't help but sighed.

After this battle, Liangzhou's vitality was greatly lost, and the remaining troops were less than [-]. The most important thing was that Liangzhou couldn't afford to support his troops, and his strength would only get weaker and weaker in the days to come.

Facing Wei Jun who is like a wolf like a tiger, and Wu Jun who is eyeing like a tiger, they can't stop them, so they might as well let them in and let them bite dogs.

"A certain military order was issued to let Ma Wan lead the army and withdraw from Taiyuan. As for Xihe County, give up several counties near Taiyuan to the east, but keep the county town away from Shicheng, and the upper county will not give up an inch. Also, let Ma Wan and Zhang Heng Lead the troops back, and Yang Qiu leads [-] troops to suppress Xihe, Shangjun, Bingzhou!"

"No!" Meng Jian nodded.

"If someone wants to counterattack, he must have a stable Liangzhou. Han Sui is already a lost dog, so he can't stay!"

Ma Chao resolutely said: "Gongwei, you must quickly organize the army, and you are going to destroy Han Sui!"

"Yes!"

Meng Jian thought for a while, his eyes moved, and he cupped his hands and said, "But General, the most important thing now is not to recover Jincheng. The General must inherit the throne of King Liang in order to be justified."

"That's true!"

Ma Chao's eyes lit up, and he said, "However, there is no conflict between regaining Jincheng and inheriting the throne of Liangzhou. Within three months, a certain person will take all of Liangzhou, and then ascend the throne in Ji County!"

——————————————————————————————————

Entering September, the chaotic situation in the world seemed to have calmed down a bit. With the end of the Battle of Guanzhong, and the end of the battle for Bingzhou, the west began to become quiet.

As for Jinling City, the atmosphere was surging like a wave.

The imperial examination was about to start, each and every student was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally this day came, a total of about [-] students became candidates for the first imperial examination.

On September [-]th, the bronze bell on Stone Mountain rang nine times in a row, the gate of the examination room opened, and students entered the examination room one by one. The three-day examination officially began.

On this day, in the palace, a small cabinet meeting was also held in a gloomy atmosphere.

Cabinet hall.

Sun Quan wore a brocade robe with dragon patterns and a jade crown on his head.Sitting cross-legged on the first seat, his back was straight, and his amber-like eyes swept across several cabinet ministers and ministers.

"What about Bingzhou, how did you discuss it?"

Bingzhou is not finished after it is defeated.The most important thing is to stabilize the situation. When the military's affairs are over, it is naturally the cabinet's turn to work hard.

However, because of Li Nie's intervention in the battle of Bingzhou, the Liang army gave up Taiyuan, and the cabinet was obviously caught off guard.

"Your Majesty, this matter is still under discussion!"

Chief Assistant Zhang Zhao shook his head and answered in a deep voice.

"No one, or can't find anyone?"

A sneer formed at the corner of Sun Quan's mouth: "The cabinet, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Household Affairs, are actually a little dissatisfied with the speed of doing things like this!"

"My lord, Bingzhou involves a lot!"

Gu Yong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood up and clasped his hands and explained: "After all, Bingzhou has experienced two generations of masters, high officials and Ma Chao, and their management of Bingzhou is insufficient. Therefore, the officials in Bingzhou are chaotic, and the Ministry of Officials needs some time to rectify!"

"Your Majesty, the economic recovery plan of Bingzhou is related to the development of Hetao. It will take time for the Ministry of Household Affairs to come up with a plan!" Zhou Yu added.

"After all, Gu's fault?"

"I dare not wait!"

All the ministers smiled wryly, accusing Sun Quan?They didn't mean it, but Sun Quan obviously misinterpreted it.

"Your Majesty, the matter of Bingzhou. From the county guard to the county magistrate, many things have to be changed, and Bingzhou is very poor, and the people are in difficulties. The Ministry of Households also needs to mobilize food and grass for support. These things cannot be completed in a short time!"

Zhang Zhao sighed, and explained.

Sun Quan's amber eyes flickered with displeasure: "Now that the Liang army has withdrawn from Taiyuan, Huang Zhong has submitted three urgent reports a day, and the military aircraft department is in dire straits. We must quickly dispatch officials to restore the management of Bingzhou, You are only here to make plans now, why did you go early!"

"My lord, we thought Bingzhou would fight for another month or two, but they ended the war too quickly, so they were caught off guard!" Lu Su smiled wryly and explained in a low voice.

"never mind!"

Sun Quan waved his hand: "You are all right, but it's useless to be reasonable. Just one word, within ten days, within ten days, the officials sent to Bingzhou must be in place, otherwise, you will do it yourself."

"promise!"

Everyone was helpless, since this was a deadly task assigned by Sun Quan, they could only work overtime.

"By the way, what Zhou Yu said just now is very good, we must pay attention to the land of Hetao!"

Sun Quan thought of the land of Hetao, his eyes were clear and bright: "If this develops well, maybe we will have an extra granary in Beidi in the future. With a granary to support, it can stimulate the economic development of Beidi!"

The land of Hetao, also known as Hetao Plain, is said to be on the south of the Yangtze River. It is at the junction of Liangzhou in Bingzhou and the Northwest Prairie.

There are abundant water resources and fertile land here, and there are many crops suitable for planting. If developed, it will become the largest cultivated land in the Northland.

"My lord, if we want to develop the land of Hetao, we have many plans. The problem is that Liangzhou, as well as foreigners, Xianbei Huns, will not sit still, and the barbarians in Hetao will also fight the autumn wind!"

Zhou Yu is a little worried about this. He is afraid that Wu Guo will invest a lot of resources to develop Hetao, which will become a place for others to fight: "They may not allow us to operate Hetao as a granary!"

"Humph!"

Sun Quan snorted coldly, and said: "You really regard our wolves and tigers as dead people. If we don't rob them, they should be laughing. They want to pick peaches on the cultivated land we reclaimed. Call him directly to his hometown."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that they don't want to confront us, but come to make trouble from time to time!" Zhou Yu said, "This is very troublesome."

This is an old trick of the nomads, using guerrilla warfare to beat the autumn wind.

"This is a worry, but it is not impossible to guard against. Zhou Yu, you should discuss with the Military Aircraft Department yourself. After the Youzhou Camp and the Northeast Camp have recovered the Karasuma clan, they have a certain foundation in the grassland.

Today's Bingzhou is in a state of chaos, rats, ants, snakes and insects have come out. If the Military Aircraft Department and the cabinet do not reach a consensus, Bingzhou will not be managed well! "
