After all, at that time, Wang Mi had just traveled through time and did not know much about the situation of this era. As for the weapons, they were only modified simple rockets. Neither muskets nor artillery had been developed yet.

It was a battle closest to the ancient cold weapon battle. Cui Yanyou's defection at the critical moment gave the Jin army a great boost.

Later, unlike many Beifu generals, Cui Yanyou, who was born in the north and had been serving in Diqin, stayed in the north and was not merged into Beifu.

The reason is naturally because he is originally from the north and is familiar with the local customs. Furthermore, he originally comes from the Qinghe Cui family. Although he has joined the army, the family's power is still very solid.

For a kid from a big family like him, naturally he still doesn't want to come to the south.

Moreover, Cui Yanyou had been in the military for many years, and his character was very smooth and thorny. Before Wang Mi mentioned this matter, he took the initiative to say that he would stay in the north and guard Xiangyang.

Later, of course, he was transferred to Hanzhong.

Cui Yanyou saw it very clearly. He was a northerner and a descendant of an aristocratic family. Although he was a little worse off now, his background would not change.

If people like him go to the south, they will definitely not be able to mix with the indigenous people and the children of the aristocratic families who have migrated south long ago, and they will not be able to urinate in the same pot.

They won't welcome him, and he doesn't feel comfortable staying with them, so he might as well stay in the north and serve as a guard.

Although he is far away from Wang Mi, which may have some impact on his personal development, he is comfortable.

The aristocratic families in the north and the south basically look down on each other. The wave of people from the south will think that some of the aristocratic families in the north like you are already impure by intermarrying with other races.

Nothing compares to our purity.

The aristocratic families in the north also had something to say, what do you deserters have to brag about?

In times of crisis, you can run faster than a rabbit. Aren’t many places in the north relying on us to survive?

How many of those poor refugees have been saved by us?

Where are you at this time?

Ah, yes, you are hiding.

From this point of view, once Wang Mi completes his grand hegemony and really pacifies the north, it will take a lot of effort on his part just to reunite these northern and southern families who were originally difficult to deal with.

This is no easy task.

Later, the Beifu soldiers fought successively and occupied more and more places, so Cui Yanyou came to Hanzhong to guard it.

It has only been more than a month since this city was handed over to him, but in the near future, he will have to shoulder a heavy responsibility.

Hanzhong, upstream of Mian River, faces Tianshui in the distance.

"If I were to go further, I would choose this place." He stood on the tower and murmured to himself.

When you come to Hanzhong, you have to make some achievements. This is Cui Yanyou's primary goal. Then, this place can be Tianshui.

It is also an important military town with a long history, so taking it down will give you face, and more importantly, it will be easier to take down.

Even if it is a war, even if our goal is to pacify the Central Plains and capture all these towns, there will still be a priority.

The most important thing is that everyone can tell which one is a soft persimmon and can be pinched.

Obviously, in the area that Hanzhong can take care of, there are two tribes, Di Qin and Yao Qiang. In comparison, Yao Qiang is more powerful.

Since the collapse of Di Qin, not only has there been only a tiny bit of land left, really only a tiny bit, but the morale of the soldiers has been very low, completely incomparable to when Di Qin was at its peak.

On the contrary, Yao Qiang is amazing.

Now they are entrenched in the city of Chang'an, occupying the best part of the Central Plains. They can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.

The most important thing is that their territory came from scratch. Although the current scope is completely incomparable with Di Qin, at that time, they were crawling at Fu Jian's feet to survive.

Even if the territory is large, it has nothing to do with them. Those territories all belong to the Di people.

But things are different now. Now this land truly belongs to me, and the geographical location is also perfect. If it is operated properly, maybe I can really make a breakthrough.

Therefore, comparing the two, it can be seen that the morale of Yao Qiang is much higher, and for them, their career is still on the rise.

The morale of such a team is still very strong, which is completely different from Di Qin.

Therefore, if you want to take a step forward, Tianshui, which is controlled by Di Qin, is actually a good choice.

Just because Tianshui is also a very dangerous place.

It was originally a strategic location and its geographical location was extremely important. At the same time, although it was controlled by Di Qin, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was only temporary.

Cui Yanyou has not taken action yet, and Tianshui is not peaceful either. It has been harassed by Yao Qiang many times. As for Di Qin, he has no better way to deal with Yao Qiang's approaching step by step and can only protect himself.

If Cui Yanyou intervenes again at this time, then there is no telling who this Tianshui will belong to.

However, who is currently stationed by Di Qin in Tianshui?

I haven't received any new messages for a long time, and I'm really worried about it.

I have to find someone to sneak into Tianshui City tomorrow to find out what's going on.

It was impossible for Di Qin to send incompetent people to garrison. The previous general was replaced because of unfavorable tactics and almost losing the city.

This time, even if he has to dig three feet into the ground, Di Qin will find someone with some skills.

For the current Di Qin, the gains and losses of one city and one pool are very important. After all, this is no longer the past, the territory is smaller, and there are not many cities left that can be taken advantage of.

If the existing ones cannot be maintained well, then the day when Di Qin will be completely destroyed will be in sight.

Their territory will be eroded bit by bit, their territory will become smaller and smaller, and their national power will become weaker and weaker.

When the weakness reached the end, it naturally fell apart without saying anything.

I believe that the Di people don't want to see such an ending, but can they keep Tianshui?

This is almost a fulcrum for leveraging Di Qin's current territory. Once Tianshui is lost, Di Qin's external defense line will completely collapse.

It stands to reason that Di Qin will definitely do his best to defend Tianshui. After all, the foundation here is still good.

Compared with some cities within the territory, the city walls are strong and the fortifications are complete. If you can't even defend such an ancient city, what hope do you have?

However, the performance of giving all his strength was like this, which inevitably gave people the feeling that Di Qin really had no one available.

So, what else can they do next?

For the Jin army, the situation seems a bit complicated.

Hanzhong, which was caught in the middle, saw an important town like Tianshui right in front of him. To be honest, Cui Yanyou felt very hungry.

However, he did not dare to take action rashly.

Because Yao Qiang must also be spying on the movements of the Jin army. If the Jin army starts fighting with Di Qin in advance, Cui Yanyou is not afraid that he will not be able to defeat the Di Qin army. He is afraid that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind.

If Yao Qiang took advantage of him, wouldn't it be worth the loss?

Therefore, after hesitating for a while, he still chose to stand still. He heard that the imperial court had already planned the Northern Expedition and would set off soon.

If most of Beifu can gather together, then there is no need to worry that Yao Qiang will buy the bottom later.

Isn’t it beautiful?

In order to achieve the wonderful goal, at this stage, we can only wait.

However, waiting is really a trying and arduous task.

Cui Yanyou walked down from the city tower and returned to the government office as usual, where wine and meat had already been prepared.

With the war approaching recently, he was very excited and often couldn't sleep, so he found a few close lieutenants to have a few drinks every night, brag and sleep better.

But this time, before he even stepped down from the tower, he saw his deputy, Wan Quan, running towards him.

When Wanquan saw him, he immediately shouted: "General, someone is coming from Tianshui!"

"Tianshui?"

"you sure?"

Cui Yanyou frowned. Could it be that what you expected will come to you?

Just now, he was still thinking about how to get Tianshui. Not long after, someone from Tianshui came?

How could it be such a coincidence?

Is it possible that something happened in Tianshui?

"Absolutely."

"The man also said that he is an important figure in Tianshui and must be seen by the general!"

It seems to be true.

"Take me there quickly."

Although I was a little hesitant in my heart, I did not stop for a moment, and soon I arrived at the government office.

Before Cui Yanyou arrived, the general who called himself Di Qin Tianshui had been waiting here for a long time.

But when I saw this man, he was not tall but very burly, and there was a deep "Sichuan" pattern between his eyebrows, running through it.

It makes him even more profound and serious.

Although this man claims to be a general, he does not wear armor. He does have a weapon, which is a long sword at his waist.

Under the candlelight, it shined brightly, and it looked like it had been used and polished frequently.

Looking at his temperament, he seems to be from a Lian family.
