The bald hair department has to solve their own food and housing problems in winter, and Xu Miao from Liangzhou also has to solve the food problem in Liangzhou.

Since he became governor of Liangzhou, he has not been able to settle down for a day.

As soon as he took office in Liangzhou in the first year, the army of Shu captives followed him into Longyou.

After the war, there was a severe drought.

With Xu Miao's ability in governing the people, as long as he can survive the first year, and then give him two or three years later, he will definitely be able to govern Liangzhou so that the state border is peaceful and the people return to their hearts.

What he didn't expect was that in the first year without getting in touch with the court, an unknown number of county magistrates and county magistrates were promised to go out.

Only then did they survive with the help of the food stored by the wealthy clan in Liangzhou.

Unexpectedly, in the second year, the Shu captives, who thought they would also have a severe drought in Longyou and would rest for two or three years after the war, were able to directly send troops to Jincheng.

Liangzhou lost less than half of its troops last year, but this year it managed to regain its vitality. This year, it lost half of its troops all of a sudden, and even lost two counties.

Even in the cold winter, Xu Miao could still feel that all parties in Liangzhou were about to move.

Under such circumstances, Xu Miao, who had no idea how to govern the people, had no choice but to sigh to the sky, and then had to ask the rich families of Liangzhou for help again.

In the first year, all parties in Liangzhou learned that Wei Guo had stationed more than 100,000 troops in Guanzhong.

Many people felt that Wei Guo still had a chance to take back Longyou, so they were willing to help after receiving promises and benefits.

It's just that they didn't expect that the food in Guanzhong had been emptied in advance by a certain Feng Langjun who didn't want to be named.

One hundred thousand elite soldiers without enough food and grass are also one hundred thousand soft-legged shrimps.

In the beginning of spring this year, after calming down An Ding, Cao Zhen wanted to try his hand at advancing Longyou from the direction of An Ding.

Unexpectedly, the Zhuge villager reacted very much, so he directly sent the general to lead the troops out of Hanzhong to Chencang.

The meaning of the threat is obvious, if you dare to touch my top, I will dare to touch your bottom.

Cao Zhen, who was not ready yet, could only be persuaded.

Now the situation in Longyou is becoming more and more obvious.

Many people in Liangzhou knew that the Han Kingdom might have already established a firm foothold in Longyou, otherwise they would not have been able to send troops to Jincheng.

After losing Jincheng and Xiping, Wei Guo's hope of returning to Liangzhou began to fade.

So this winter, the food stocks of each family are much less than last year:

Mr. Xu, last year we just borrowed food, so we should take it easy this year, right?

No one is a fool, even though they didn't expect to get back the food they borrowed.

But you can't throw it in vain!

Judging from the current situation, Liangzhou will fall into the hands of Han sooner or later.

Now lending food to the governor of Wei State, isn't it just throwing it away for nothing?

It's just that others don't have to borrow, but one family has to.

Xu Miao, governor of Liangzhou, had just driven away from the Zhang family. Zhang Hua, the younger brother of Zhang Gong, the captain of the Wuji school in the Western Regions, and the former prefect of Jincheng, personally closed the gate angrily.

Then he returned to the house where Zhang Gong rested, and couldn't help cursing angrily:

"This old man has repeatedly asked our family to provide food. Is our Zhang family so easy to bully?"

Zhang Gong, who was already old, had a sparse white beard hanging on his chest, and his eyebrows had also turned gray.

The deep wrinkles on his face, the bulging veins on his arms, and the ubiquitous black spots also showed that this famous figure in the Western Regions and even the Western Regions had entered his twilight years.

"If you don't want to borrow food, why don't you just borrow your head and use it?"

Zhang Gong was half lying on the couch, wrapped in a thick velvet quilt, without even raising his eyelids, he said something in a hoarse voice.

If it weren't for the unstable situation in Liangzhou, the Han people would want to attack the four counties of Liangzhou at any time, and with his own reputation, he would be able to help Xu Miao to appease the Liangzhou Qianghu.

I'm afraid Xu Miao may not be so easy to talk to, he just asked the Zhang family to lend food.

Zhang Hua is not too young, but in front of his elder brother, he is like an obedient child.

A word from Zhang Gong made her face flushed.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the house except his nephew Zhang Jiu.

"After the First World War in Jincheng, the three main roads to Liangzhou were all under the control of the Han people. As long as they wish, they can enter Liangzhou in three directions at any time."

Zhang Gong coughed a few times, "I miscalculated on this matter. I shouldn't have promised Xu Miao to let you guard Jincheng."

Seeing the adult coughing, Zhang quickly stepped forward to help stroke his back, with a look of guilt on his face:

"My lord, it's a child who is incompetent..."

Zhang Gong waved his hand, "It's none of your business. No one thought that after the battle of Longyou, the Han people would still have the strength to attack Jincheng after the severe drought in Longyou."

There was the loss of Jingzhou before, and the defeat of Yiling later, and the vitality of the people of Shu was almost exhausted.

Unexpectedly, after only a few years of silence, he will be able to send troops out of Longyou, and the military power will not be weaker than before.

Zhang Gong, who knows that the loess has been buried up to his neck, has experienced many things before he has today's reputation?

Back then, the thief put a weapon on his son's neck, but he couldn't make him yield.

But now he is starting to get confused. The people of Shu are so powerful, why didn't they directly attack Liangzhou after taking down Hanzhong?

It doesn't make sense at all!

Could it be... Liu Chan, Liu Bei's son, is so much stronger than Liu Bei?

Back then, besides Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, under Liu Bei's command, there were also many world-famous generals and advisers.

However, after Liu Bei died of illness, it is not an exaggeration for the Kingdom of Shu to say that it was almost destroyed.

At that time, the Great Wei also sent General Xian Yu to support the edict to go to Shu to appeal for the kindness of Mihao and persuade Zhuge Liang, who was in command of Shu, to open the door of Shu to surrender to Wei.

In the past few years from then to now, the only person whose reputation can spread to Shu is Feng Yong, whose reputation is half-reputed and half-destroyed.

The article is well written, the leader is also powerful, and there is a way to make money.

However, I heard that her character is flawed, she is said to be flattering, she likes women who have been engaged to her, her methods are cruel, her heart is vicious...

In the first battle of Jincheng, it was nothing more than the defeat of my younger brother and my son. In the end, I got the reputation of colluding with the Shu people, thanks to Feng Yong.

This child is indeed a character, but there is only such a person in Shu, which can better explain the decline of talents in Shu, how can it be compared with the prosperity of talents in Central Plains?

It just so happened that such a state not only supported the continuous use of troops by the Han people for two consecutive years.

He even guarded Longshan in the east and rejected tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Guanzhong.

Zhongfu Longyou, let the Qiang and Hu all return to their hearts.

Take the Jincheng Xiping from the west and threaten the four core counties of Liangzhou.

Zhang Gong felt that over the past few years, Wei Guo seemed to have made a serious mistake in judging Shu.

More importantly, even now, no one can figure out how these misjudgments occurred.

So, what is the problem?

Could it be that the Shu people have not only mountains of gold and seas of silver, but also the ability to grow food out of thin air, and to change their mouths?

"Dadou Bagu, the mountain should be covered by heavy snow by now, right?"

Zhang Gong asked suddenly.

Zhang Hua and Zhang looked at each other inexplicably, not understanding why Zhang Gong asked this question.

"My lord, the mountain has been closed for a long time."

If you don't understand, you don't understand, so Zhang replied respectfully.

"Don't worry, my lord. There are elite soldiers guarding Dadou Bagu. The Han people should not be able to make it through at this time."

Zhang Gong was exhausted, half lying down with his eyes closed, he sneered when he heard this, "The Han people can't make it through, what you say doesn't count, what the Han people say counts."

After the First World War in Jincheng, all interested people in Liangzhou recalled that as long as Longyou did not return to Wei State for a day, Han State would have the final say in Liangzhou sooner or later.

"grown ups……"

Zhang was almost at the age of 40, and his face was ashamed again when his adults said so.

"Next year it will be spring, if the Li family's caravan comes over, find a chance to follow them back and see what's going on in Longyou."

"It would be the best if we can enter the land of Shu and see clearly."

After Xiping County fell into the hands of the Han people, the caravan of the Li family in Longxi was finally able to try again to cross the Dadouba Valley and reach the four counties of Liangzhou.

They didn't need to continue going west at all, because the goods such as brown sugar, spirits, and wool had already been snapped up before leaving Zhangye.

The fine velvet quilt covering Zhang Gong's body was brought by the Li family's caravan.

"Yes, my lord. At that time, I will send the most capable people in the clan to follow..."

Zhang replied respectfully.

It's just that before he finished his sentence, Zhang Gong cursed, "Idiot, I asked you to go in person!"

"Remember, memorize everything you can see, come back and tell me."

Having said that, Zhang Gong finally opened his eyes, but there was no focal length in his eyes.

"Emperor Wu is good at using soldiers and has great talents. After the Battle of Chibi, he issued an order to seek talents and personally led the army into Guanzhong. At that time, I knew that Liangzhou must be in the pocket of the Wei people."

"However, after the Han people took Longyou, I thought at first that they just took advantage of Wei Guo's unpreparedness, so they would not be able to stay for long."

"Then they thought that even if they could barely hold on, they would not be able to go west."

"After all, the gap between the Han and Wei dynasties is there. It was a coincidence and cannot last for a long time. However, until now, the behavior of the Han people has been beyond the expectations of the world."

In two years, tens of thousands of Wei troops were stationed in Guanzhong, without any merit. They could not break through the Han people's Longshan defense line, nor could they go south and enter Hanzhong.

Although the Han people have gained a critical advantage, they must defend both Hanzhong and Longshan, and they still have spare energy to advance to Liangzhou.

The land of one state in the west can resist the land of ten states, but it can still do so many things. Is this world crazy?

If the land of Shu is really so powerful, then it should be Gongsun Shu, not Emperor Guangwu, who leveled the world.

Therefore, Zhang Gong urgently needs to understand the current Han state in order to make judgments for the future choices of the Zhang family.
