Chapter 504 It’s snowing heavily in Liangzhou (please give me your monthly ticket!)

It snowed heavily overnight, shrouding Xudu in a blanket of silver.

In the Marquis of Linyi's mansion, Liu Guang was wearing a thick cotton robe and standing on the porch, motionless. At first glance, he seemed to be admiring the snow scene in the garden. But the servant knew that from yesterday to now, the Marquis of Linyi

It's always been like this.

"Master Marquis, the abbot is here!"

"welcome!"

Liu Guang suddenly woke up, said "Invite", and walked to the study.

It has been nearly two years since I was sent as an envoy to the Southern Xiongnu in the blink of an eye.

On the surface, his mission seemed useless and ended in failure. But in fact, with the murder of Hu Chuquan, Liu Bao, the Xian King of Zuo, rose rapidly, and Liu Guang's achievements were undeniable. However, these achievements were not there for a while.

It is impossible to see the clues. Because although Liu Bao established himself as the Chanyu of the Southern Xiongnu and sat in the Chanyu court, he did not surrender to Qubeiyou. The area controlled by the Southern Xiongnu was only three-fifths of the original. Moreover, Qubei was at the beginning of the year and

A Xianbei tribe coming out of Hexi has joined forces and has a vague tendency to control Mobei. All areas beyond the river are in the hands of these two people.

Liu Guang had reason to believe that the Xianbei tribe came from Cao Peng's arm.

They came from Hexi. Mingli said that they were attacked by the Han army and had to withdraw from Hexi. However, according to the news from the southern Xiongnu, this Xianbei tribe is well-equipped and has rich luggage, and its strength cannot be underestimated. The most terrifying thing is

They possess extremely sophisticated weapons. It is said that most of those weapons are equipment that were eliminated by Cao's army, making this Xianbei team very powerful in combat. At the same time, they also continuously transported supplies to Qubei.

Originally, with Liu Bao occupying Shan Yuting, Qubei was already at a disadvantage.

However, after acquiring a large amount of baggage, Qubei quickly regained its power and consciously reduced its troops, stationing them at the line between Tanhan Mountain and Shoujiang City. However, Shentuze, which Qubei originally occupied, was controlled by the Xianbei tribe.

As a result, Liu Bao had to be attacked on both sides.

Directly to the north, there are 100,000 troops from Xianbei to control the string; while to the west, there are nearly 50,000 troops from Xianbei, watching eagerly.

From having an absolute advantage to now being equal... Liu Bao's current situation is not very good, and he is even slightly at a disadvantage. Fortunately, the war in Hebei has come to an end. Although Gao Gan lost in Hedong, he did not receive too much

A big blow. On the contrary, with the help of Yuan Xi, he took the opportunity to annex Ke Zui's Wuwan tribe and suddenly grew stronger.

After joining forces with Yuan Xi, Gao Gan took the initiative to form an alliance with Liu Bao and provided a large amount of supplies to help Liu Bao gain a foothold.

As a result, the situation in the Southern Huns gradually stabilized. At least in the confrontation with Qubei, Liu Bao recovered the disadvantage. However, it would take time until Liu Bao could fully control the situation and form a helping hand. Liu Guang had an inexplicable feeling.

Sense of crisis. He didn't know how long he could hold on, or how long the Han Dynasty could hold on... Especially after the Liangzhou victory came, Liu Guang's sense of crisis became stronger and stronger, and he even felt faintly afraid!

Why is there no person like Cao Peng among my Han family members?

Liu Guang picked up the book but had no intention of reading it.

After Ma Teng died, Liu Bei was the only one left to sign the edict.

But Liu Bei is still unable to protect himself. He doesn't even have a place to stay, so he can only rely on others. Although Liu Bei fought against Cao's army several times in Xinye, he also won quite a few victories. But overall, his victories were just small fights.

.

Compared with Cao Peng's great victory in Liangzhou, Liu Bei's achievements seemed insignificant.

Cao Peng killed Ma Teng, and Cao Cao's troubles in the northwest will be reduced. Next, let's just see how Cao Cao quickly seizes Liangzhou and takes complete control of Liangzhou.

"Marquis of Linyi!"

Liu Guang suddenly woke up and looked up to see that Fu Wan had walked into the room.

He was wearing a black robe with fluttering sleeves, hiding his missing arms in the sleeves. He walked into the house, bowed and bowed to Liu Guang, "Marquis of Linyi, I called you for a long time, but there was no answer. Could it be that you have something on your mind?"

?"

Fu Wan was in good spirits, his face looked rosy, and he was much fatter than before.

After experiencing the difficulty of breaking his hand, Fu Wan gradually disappeared from the public eye in the court and became ascetic. He recited the Tao Te Ching at home every day and seemed very comfortable. But Liu Guang knew that Fu Wan never stopped moving.

.

Underneath his calm demeanor, there is a fiery heart hidden...

Fu Jun is dead!

Rang Fuwan's hatred for the Cao family became even stronger.

On the surface, he withdrew from the political stage, but privately, he was still working hard to recruit talents for the Han Emperor. This can be seen from the increasing number of guests in Fu Wan's family. In the past year, Fu Wan's family had more than a thousand diners.

Most of them are unlucky scholars. They talk loudly every day, criticize current affairs, and give advice on the country. They have become a common sight in Xudu. The result of these people is that there are many rumors in the streets of Xudu.

For example, Cao Cao wants to usurp the throne...

The farming method is too harsh!

Or some people directly say that the laws implemented by Cao Cao now have a strong flavor of violence against the Qin Dynasty and will inevitably bring disaster to the country.

However, this is just a rumor and the source cannot be traced.

Liu Guang waved his hand and said, "Prince of the State, please sit down."

Unexpectedly, Fu Wan frowned, looked at the furniture placed in the hall, and said in a deep voice: "The Marquis of Linyi is a servant of the imperial court and a relative of the emperor. He should abide by the etiquette. Why should he imitate others?

Are you planning these outrageous and cunning schemes?"

The strange and cunning tricks Fu Wan mentioned were the armchairs and writing desks in Liu Guang's study...

Liu Guang smiled and said, "Abbott, you have etiquette in your heart, why bother being rigid."

The etiquette of my ancestors is hidden in my heart, and I don't need to tell others. One sentence made Fu Wan smile immediately.

"I want to send someone to Guanzhong."

"Well?"

"Ma Teng was incompetent and was killed by that little thief.

Nowadays, the situation in Liangzhou has moved closer to Mr. Cao, and we cannot sit idly by. There are famous families in Guanzhong, and their interests are deeply involved. I am going to use the power of Guanzhong to help Wei Duan secure Liangzhou and make Mr. Cao

How about just having fun for nothing?"

Liu Guang was startled and tapped the desk with his fingers.

This was Cao Peng's habit, but for some reason Liu Guang learned it.

Fu Wan's meaning was very clear, that is, Cao Cao must not be allowed to completely control the Liangzhou area.

There are wealthy families in Guanzhong, and their interests in Liangzhou are very deep. For example, Wei Duan used the Liangzhou Pass to sell contraband to the Qiang and Di in order to make astonishing profits. This is just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, the wealthy families in Guanzhong are no less than those in the Central Plains.

.For example, the Pingling Dou family, the Jingzhao Wei family, and the Hongnong Yang family... there are many such families.

Although today's Guanzhong wealthy families are far less powerful than the Central Plains families, their heritage still exists and they are a force that cannot be underestimated.

The most important thing is that most of the wealthy families in Guanzhong are loyal to the Han Dynasty.

For example, the Hongnong Yang family, Linjing Huangfu and other families were loyal to the Han Dynasty.

Liu Guang couldn't help but nodded slightly!

This is probably Fu Wan's last resort to contain Cao Cao...

"Weiduan, are you willing to cooperate?"

"I have sent people to contact Wei Duan. At the same time, I am preparing to spread rumors in Xudu to create momentum for Wei Duan and help him obtain military power in Liangzhou."

The implication was that he wanted to make Wei Duan the shepherd of Liangzhou.

Although Wei Duan was the governor of Liangzhou, his position was still inferior to that of the governor of Liangzhou.

Liu Guang thought for a while, "Since the abbot has this intention, he must make proper arrangements. To create momentum for Wei Duan, he needs to be more careful to avoid being noticed by Cao Cao. On my side, I will try my best to clear the obstacles for the abbot and ask your majesty to propose

Court meeting."

"That's it, let's take our leave!"

Fu Wan is now doing things vigorously and resolutely.

Once the discussion is over, leave immediately.

Liu Guang was very satisfied with his behavior.

At least, he is a hundred times stronger than the general who was always hesitant about doing things and acted like a snake and a rat before he lost his hand.

Cao Youxue, our game is not over yet...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"My lord returns to Didao this time and needs to be more friendly with Governor Cao.

Now that Grand Administrator Cao has taken over three counties in a row, he is going to do it with great momentum. It is inevitable that he will be offended by his words. This is usually the case when young people succeed... If my lord wants to take back Longxi as soon as possible, he should keep his attitude low. Think about it, he won't be in trouble."

Yang Fu's instructions echoed in Wei Duan's ears.

As the war in Longxi subsided, it became urgent for him to return to Didao and regain the affairs of Longxi.

Longxi, we must get it back as soon as possible.

There is also Jincheng County, which must be retrieved as soon as possible. Wei Duan is very clear about the importance of Longxi and Jincheng. Only by controlling these two counties can we rest easy. But the question is, will Cao Peng willingly hand them back to him?

The wheels turned and made a squeaking sound.

The broken ice fragments flew out to both sides and scattered all over the ground.

Wei Duan had great trust in Yang Fu, an old subordinate.

But in his heart, he felt very unsettled and a little uncomfortable at the same time.

Ma Teng took away Longxi and drove Wei Duan from Longxi to Hanyang; but Cao Peng took back Longxi in a short period of time and even took Jincheng County away with him. This clearly means that Wei Duan is incompetent.

It was such a loud slap in the face that it made Wei Duan feel uncomfortable. You must know that he had lost Longxi after listening to Ma Teng's words.

After rubbing his face vigorously, Wei Duan suddenly lifted the car curtain.

"Yuan Jiang!"

"Father……"

Wei Kang heard Wei Duan's call and quickly rode forward, "Father, what's the matter?"
