With the Famous Name of the Three Kingdoms

When Qin Xiaobai was in Bingzhou, fighting vigorously in the propaganda war, Cao Mengde, the general who conquered the west, also led his three million soldiers to the battlefield, Xiliang.

Qin Xiaobai knew that Cao Cao had never been to Xiliang, so he might not know much about the situation in Xiliang, so he had already informed Xu Rong, who was guarding Chang'an, and asked them to send scouts from Xiliang to investigate the current situation in Liangzhou. Some intelligence help from Cao Mengde.

As expected, the Xiliang people are all from Xiliang, and they know Liangzhou well. Before Cao Cao arrived in Liangzhou, he had already informed him of the general situation in Xiliang.

Therefore, after Cao Cao led his army to Xiliang, he directly led his army to find Han Suimateng, and then beat him without saying a word.

Speaking of it, Han Suimateng was wronged, at least they felt so.

Originally, they nested in Xiliang and called themselves kings, but after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, they received an invitation letter from Dong Zhuo, asking them to come to the imperial capital to conspire with each other.

Although Han Suimateng ruled the roost in Xiliang for a while, the imperial army could not do anything to them, but they knew that after all, they were born as rebels. If they did not get official approval from the imperial court, they would not last long. The collusion that Dong Zhuo promised to do has the meaning of jointly controlling the government and ruling the world.

Therefore, they couldn't bear the temptation, and immediately rushed out, and the coalition forces came to Sili.

As a result, when they were halfway there, they heard that Dong Zhuo had been defeated and Qin Xiaobai was now in charge of the government.

The employer is dead, so it would be meaningless for them to go again, but they finally ran all the way here, and they were about to enter Sili, and they didn't get anything, so how could they just go back so easily.

And they heard that Qin Xiaobai, who is now in charge of the government, implements the system of enfeoffment and governs the world with the princes, which makes Han Suimateng's mind active again. Don't they just want to become a full-time leader without losing their territory? Qin Xiaobai's policy is exactly what they want.

So they continued to advance towards Sili, preparing to go straight to Luoyang to ask Qin Xiaobai for an official. Give them an autonomous Liangzhou or something.

And when they think about it, Qin Xiaobai will definitely reward them greatly when he sees that they take the initiative to vote, and they will definitely get more benefits by then.

As a result, on the way here, they ran into Cao Cao's troops. No one in the world knew that Cao Cao was with Qin Xiaobai, so Han Suimateng was going to ask Cao Cao to send a message to Qin Xiaobai for them.

But who knows, Cao Cao, who obviously has far fewer troops than theirs, immediately killed them without saying a word when he saw them.

This caught them off guard, and they retreated thousands of miles before stopping.

Fortunately, their Xiliang army has been battle-tested for a long time, and all soldiers are riding, so the loss is not big.

But the current situation. But Han Suimateng was a little confused, who is the traitor this special meow, and why they didn't make a move, and the opposite party didn't care what happened.

Although being attacked by Cao Cao made Han Suimateng suffocate, and wanted to kill this short-sighted guy, but it still depends on the owner to beat the dog.

After all, Qin Xiaobai is now the number one prince in the world and represents the central court. If possible, they still don't want to have an armed conflict with Qin Xiaobai.

So Han Suimateng immediately sent someone to Cao Jun's camp to shout and negotiate.

Facing the emissary of Han Suimateng, he shouted. As if Cao Cao didn't hear it at all, he sat in the commander's tent and gave orders continuously, ordering the three armies to prepare to continue attacking the Korean-Macao coalition forces.

This made Cao Cao's military advisor Xi Zhicai ask suspiciously: "My lord, didn't the prime minister say that it is enough to let Han Suimateng recognize the central government? Now Han Suimateng seems to have the intention of negotiating with our army. Why don't we talk to them about it."

Cao Mengde shook his head and said: "Brother Xiaobai once told me before I set out that Han Suimateng is not like other princes. They belong to the rebel army. They are rebellious and do not listen to the tune or the propaganda. They ask for a lot. The ditch is difficult to fill.

Even if this trip does not completely subdue them, it is necessary to let them see the strength of the central court, so that they can show both kindness and power, and let them truly recognize the authority of the central court. "

In history, Han Suimateng came to Chang'an City after Dong Zhuo's death. At that time, Li urged Guo Si, who inherited Dong Zhuo's power, to win them over, adding various officials and ranks to the site, but Han Suimateng was not satisfied. Constantly urging Guo Si to ask Li for it.

In the end, Li urged Guo Si to fall out with Han Suimateng, and the two sides even had a big fight.

If you don't show the strength of the central court to Han Suimateng, you will inevitably repeat the same mistakes.

Then Cao Cao smiled and said: "And, according to Brother Xiaobai, he will divide Xiliang into two and set aside a Yongzhou for me to govern. For Han Suimateng, if this kind of ceding the land, Let them know how powerful we are, how can they easily agree."

Qin Xiaobai will not treat Cao Liu and Sun more favorably than others. Since Liu Bei and Sun Jian are divided into Qingzhou and Jiaozhou, Cao Cao will naturally be given a state.

Although Qingzhou, Jiaozhou, and Yongzhou are not good places, they are all chaotic, poor mountains and rivers, barren and barren...

But the role of these three states is very important.

Qingzhou, Jiaozhou, Yongzhou, plus Sili and Bingzhou directly controlled by Qin Xiaobai himself, formed a five-finger on the Chinese territory, which can exert influence on any prince, and Qin Xiaobai consolidated the authority of the central government. To ensure that in the future, in the face of the five random Chinese and eight-nation allied forces, the entire Chinese power can be mobilized.

However, Qingzhou and Jiaozhou are not only barren, but also unable to communicate with Sili. For Qin Xiaobai, they are enclaves that are difficult to intervene. If the central court wants to directly control it, the cost will be huge.

Therefore, letting Liu Bei and Sun Jian occupy the governance is the most cost-effective way to control the territory.

As for Yongzhou, although it is close to Sili, it is also closely connected to the Qiang people in the north. In the future, when China is in chaos, it will become a barrier for Sili, preventing the Qiang people from directly choleraing Sili. , the central core of culture.

"It turns out that the prime minister, the picture is so big."

Xi Zhicai nodded when he heard the words, and then said: "Then, isn't it enough for us to beat them back thousands of miles?"

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "This is a sneak attack. The victory is not military. They will definitely not accept it. They must fight again and defeat them head-on."

Now that Cao Cao had just won a small surprise attack, which weakened the morale of the South Korean and Horse allied forces, if he wanted to fight head-on, this was undoubtedly the best time.

Of course, in fact, there has been a sneak attack once, and it is impossible to sneak attack again.

Xi Zhicai suddenly realized when he heard the words, so he immediately assisted Cao Cao in preparing for the war and formally declared war on the Korean-Macao coalition forces.

...

As a result, when the frontal battle began, Cao Cao found that the Korean-Macao coalition forces were not so easy to deal with.

Han Suimateng's army can add up to 10 million people, which is more than three times that of Cao Cao's army, although it had the upper hand at the beginning.

But gradually when they came back to their senses and began to counterattack, Cao Cao only felt that his pressure had doubled, and if this continued, he might not be suppressed by others.

After finally waiting for Cao Cao to survive the day, after the two sides suspended their troops temporarily, Cao Cao immediately returned to the camp to ask Xi Zhicai for advice.

Xi Zhicai was usually resourceful and resourceful, but at this moment he was helpless. After all, there was too much difference between the soldiers and horses of the two sides. Han Suimateng was still fighting at home, and Xiliang's iron cavalry was rampant on the plain. How could their infantry be able to resist.

Just as the master and minister were staring at each other, Cao Cao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he remembered something: "By the way, Brother Xiaobai gave me a kit." (To be continued.)
