Chapter 1567

At the same time, Pang De led three thousand Xianbei cavalry to Chang'an, and Pang De also handed over his power in Danhan Mountain to the officials of Bingzhou. Danhan Mountain had become a city for the Han people, but he wanted to lead the cavalry of aliens to fight on the battlefield.

Just like the cavalry in the surrendered city, among the three thousand cavalry, there were many Wuhuan people and Xiongnu people, but the Xianbei cavalry was still the main one. Pang De did not stop these cavalry during the daily battles, but during the war, if the cavalry from the three sides dared to violate the slightest, the consequences of disobeying the military order can be imagined.

When Pang De learned that Lu Bu was going to launch troops in Liangzhou, he was a little excited. He had been in Liangzhou for many years and had a deep understanding of the current situation of the people in Liangzhou. The Qiang people were not as kind as the Xianbei people on the grassland. The Han people in the hands of the Qiang people lived in extremely miserable conditions. When Pang De followed Ma Chao to fight against the Qiang people, he had a considerable prestige among the Qiang people.

After receiving the order in Jizhou, Zhang He led the eleventh serpentine soldiers and 10,000 Jizhou troops to Chang'an. The troops in Qingzhou were not mobilized. Qingzhou had just settled for less than a year and needed stability and rest.

Bingzhou also mobilized 20,000 troops to Chang'an.

The Chang'an army, which had been silent for less than a year, began to fight again. The mobilization of troops under Lu Bu's rule reached the ears of the princes, and the most worried ones were Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

During the war last year, Lu Bu escaped from the war quickly, but Cao Cao had been stalemate with the Jingzhou army for too long. If Lu Bu sent troops to seize other places in Sili at this time, Cao's army would be involved in the war again.

Like Qingzhou, Cao's army needed to rest. Liu Bei was also worried that Lu Bu would send troops to attack Yizhou and ordered many soldiers to station on the important roads into Sichuan to guard against Lu Bu's army. The envoys of the three princes also rushed to Chang'an again. They wanted to find out what Lu Bu wanted to do behind the movement of troops.

The most exciting thing is the envoys of Jiangdong. Now they are in an alliance with Lu Bu, and the relationship between this alliance is much stronger than that of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. If Lu Bu attacks Cao Cao, Jiangdong can seize Jingzhou and strengthen its own strength.

However, Cao Cao had some speculations about the goal of mobilizing troops under Lu Bu's rule. Since Lu Bu became king, Chang'an had hoarded a large amount of food and grass. However, Lu Bu's hoarding of food and grass was not something that the princes could stop. The aristocratic families were crazy for the sake of profit and would not consider what consequences would have happened after transporting rice and grain to Chang'an. At this time, Lu Bu had Jizhou, Hanzhong and Bingzhou as support, and in terms of food and grass, it was not as scarce as they imagined.

When selling weapons, Lu Bu gained greater benefits. When the princes exchanged for the weapons of steel, they used all rice and grain. However, in the face of this situation, the princes could only grit their teeth and admit that they had too much difference in building weapons compared to Lu Bu.

Of course, in this case, what is caused is to conduct a crazily investigation of the situation of Baibogu craftsman workshop. As long as you can obtain these methods of forging weapons, it means that you can gain more initiative in future wars.

Lu Bu attached great importance to the defense of Baibo Valley, especially when his army fought against the princes, if things in Baibo Valley were spread, it would not only greatly damage one's interests, but also improve the strength of the princes' army.

The princes sent detailed works to the craftsman workshops, which can be described as one after another. As long as they can get the things in the craftsman workshops, their strength can improve in a short period of time. If they get some methods of making things, they will gain huge benefits.

"Lord, now it seems that the King of Jin is planning to send troops to pacify Liangzhou." Cheng Yu said.

Cao Cao sneered: "Feng Xian's move is obviously overestimating his ability. I believe Feng Xian is very clear about what the situation in Liangzhou is like. Chang'an's army may be strong, but it is extremely difficult to pacify the Qiang people who have suffered from Liangzhou for many years. If Chang'an's troops are mobilized, it will be an opportunity for our army to seize Jingzhou in one fell swoop."

"Lord, the Jiangdong Army has arranged a large number of troops in Jingzhou. If we lead troops to attack Jingzhou, wouldn't it make the King of Jin do what he wants?" Xun Yu said.

In Xun Yu's view, Lu Bu is the biggest obstacle to the unity of the world. Only by destroying Lu Bu can we deal with other princes. When the princes first united, they did this very well. However, as time went by, the princes had forgotten the ease of the alliance at that time and even fought for their own interests. If they continued to develop according to this situation, it might be Lu Bu who won the final victory.

In Xun Yu's opinion, anyone who became kings was a rebellion of the Han Dynasty. After the White Horse Alliance, any kings with different surnames among the princes would cause a total attack by the princes. On this point, the princes had a common understanding, but it was Lu Bu who took the lead in breaking the rules left by the ancestors.

At that time, Lu Bu had no respect for the Han Dynasty. When the imperial envoys went to Chang'an, they not only could not receive courtesy, but they had to worry about being criticized. The imperial envoys could no longer show the majesty of the Han Dynasty. In the long run, the image of the Han Dynasty in the hearts of the princes would be even more destroyed. Xun Yu had deep feelings for the Han Dynasty, so he naturally did not want the situation of the Han Dynasty to continue like this.

Now Cao Cao has an absolute advantage in the great sense. As long as Cao Cao is willing to take out the imperial seal, it will inevitably make the Xu Du court orthodox court become orthodox. The imperial seal represents the destiny of heaven. Now it is not only the advisers under Cao Cao who believe that other princes outside Lu Bu also understand this way. After the attack on Shouchun, how could Cao Cao give up the jade seal? Cao Cao always kept silent about this matter, and even after the court moved the capital to Xu Du, he still had no intention of taking out the jade seal.

This made the officials under their command a little dissatisfied with the officials who tried to revitalize the Han Dynasty. The reason why they assisted Cao Cao in achieving great achievements was not to make the Cao family dominant, but to restore the world to a stable situation and control the jade seal could only make the Han Dynasty's influence weaker and weaker among the princes.

Cao Cao said: "Do you think that if Fengxian leads troops to attack Liangzhou, you will be unprepared in Chang'an? At that time, the coalition of princes gathered more than 200,000 troops, but they could not defeat Chang'an and Huguan. What's more, now, Yuan Shao has been destroyed, Liu Bei is huddled in Yizhou, and even dangerous checkpoints like Jiameng Pass have fallen into Lu Bu's hands. The possibility of sending troops from Yizhou no longer exists. You have to always worry about the troops from Hanzhong entering Yizhou. With our army, can Chang'an be defeated?"
