Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 455 Zhang Liao Pingxi

Unexpectedly, shortly after Liu Feng's order was issued, he just changed his clothes, supported Himiko, and walked towards the Bohai Ferry, ready to go to sea, when an urgent report came in a hurry.

"Good news from the plateau!"

"Your Majesty, General Zhang Liao has won a great victory!"

-

Time went back to March of the first year of Daye.

The grass was growing and the birds were flying, and the snow on the plateau had not yet melted. Forty thousand Han Chinese dressed like them drove into the village of Baima Qiang.

"Baima Qiang, Baimatou, with 18 people from his clan, pays homage to General Anxi."

As soon as he arrived here, Zhang Liao saw a white-haired leader leading a large group of people out of the village to meet him.

"How dare you bother the elder to greet him in person." Zhang Liao stretched out his hand to help him up.

Over the past few days, the Anxi Camp under his command has now expanded to 5 people.

There are [-] Baima Qiang, [-] Wuwei Qiang, and [-] Han Chinese.

Now they are all training on the edge of the plateau. What altitude sickness has been completely overcome at this moment, and the army has brought [-] copies of rhodiola, which is enough to deal with any altitude sickness.

"Headman, Zhang Liao is here to ask you for the elite Baima Qiang to fight."

"The general is going to go on an expedition, are you attacking Xizhou?" At this moment, Liu Feng designated the western plateau on the map as Xizhou, and it was also spread to the ears of the people all over the Han Dynasty. Regardless of the fact that the Baima Qiang is still located in the west of the Han Dynasty. Chui, but at this moment, there are not many strong and strong people in Baima Qiang Village. Among the 18 ethnic groups, there are a total of [-] to [-] people, all of whom are Han Chinese.

"According to His Majesty's edict, Zhang Liao has been training soldiers and horses at the foot of the mountain for more than a year. Now that he has overcome the altitude sickness, he should go out on behalf of His Majesty to crusade against the two major forces entrenched in the Western Province and solve the border troubles in the Western Frontier."

"I see."

The man with the head of the white horse pointed behind him, and a burly man with a full height of two meters came out holding a golden wheel Zen staff.

"This is my son Ulun Bator, the number one warrior of our Baima Qiang. This time, the old man sent [-] troops, and he will be under his command. He will go out with the general. I hope he will triumph as soon as possible."

"Nowadays there are [-] Western Qiang Iron Cavalry, and every time they die in battle, they will be replaced by strong men from the Qiang Village at the foot of the mountain, because the warriors on the plateau are the bravest. of."

"If we mobilize [-] elite troops in one go, will the clan still have the strength to defend?" Zhang Liao was worried that he would lead the army out on the front foot, and Baima Qiang's home would be ransacked on the back foot.

"Naturally there is."

"However, on the plateau, the news leaked out very quickly, because the major Qiang villages are all united together."

"If the general sends troops, I'm afraid that Tang Yan and Fa Qiang will join forces quickly. Their soldiers and horses will reach 3 by then. If they bite the bullet, they have traded with the Guishuang Empire in the early years and exchanged cattle and sheep fur. A lot of weapons, taken out at this moment, can equip [-] to [-] people, so the general must be prepared."

"Don't worry, the leader. This trip will destroy these two tribes. I have 30 Han people who are preparing at the foot of the mountain and can migrate up at any time. They have lived at the foot of the mountain with this general for more than a year before. West State is ready."

Zhang Liao felt like a bright mirror in his heart.

Tang Yan and Fa Qiang, the two major tribes, were able to occupy the plateau for many years like the Baima Qiang.

That is because they occupy the geographical advantage.

Whether it is Daqin or Dahan.

The reason why no troops were sent to conquer them was because the altitude sickness could not be solved.

At this moment, Liu Feng told the precautions and rationed a large number of herbs that can treat altitude sickness. Without altitude sickness, could these Qiang people be the opponents of the Han army?
In April, Zhang Liao directly raised the banner and collected more than 1 plateau war horses on the plateau. During his running, he sent Qiang and Tang Yan, and also received news.

"Baima Qiang has no shame. He betrayed the Qiang people and recruited an army of Han people into the plateau to conquer our people."

"I send Qiang."

"I'm Tang Yan."

"Let's form an alliance today, if we don't break the Han army, don't kill all the Baima Qiang traitors, we swear we won't withdraw our troops!"

At the end of April, the two major tribes mobilized 20 troops, claiming to be [-]. They marched out from the tribal territory and arrived at the flat land in the middle of the plateau. The place where the palace was built encountered the Han army.

"The front army assaults, chariots and cavalry charge forward, raise troops to protect the two wings, and Zhuge's crossbowmen advance with three-stage fire."

"Here."

In a wave of confrontation, Zhang Liao directly relied on Zhuge Liannu's flat push, beheaded [-] people and captured [-] people.

The remaining defeated troops, under the command of Manu Zanpu, withdrew to Tang Yan.

At the beginning of May, Tang Yan was destroyed.

More than 3 Yi people who resisted were beheaded by Zhang Liao in front of the cesspit outside the tribe.

Blood stained the plateau red.

When he arrived at the Faqiang tribe with his army in mid-May, Ehe burned the sword, and the ten-year-old Faqiang patriarch knelt down and begged for surrender.

"He burns the gun and is willing to surrender to the big man. From then on, he will become a vanguard under the general's command and charge for the general."

"Ehe Shaoge, this general can promote you to Pingqiang Zhonglang at this moment. Your clansmen, women and children stay on the plateau, and build a plateau road on the edge of Xizhou. When the plateau road is repaired, they you can go back.”

"In addition, this general will recruit [-] strong Qiang people on the plateau to serve as soldiers. Among them, Ulun Bator, the patriarch of Baima Qiang, is the general of Anqiang Zhonglang, who will command [-] Qiang soldiers. You will lead [-] Qiang soldiers to guard together with this general. Xizhou."

"Here."

When June came, the 30 Han Chinese resettled under the plateau had already begun to move northward on a large scale. In the first half of the mountainous area, there were still roads where they could take horse-drawn carriages, but in the second half they could only walk by human power.

Fortunately, Liangzhou sent a lot of poor horses. In mid-June, they finally arrived at Baima Qiang, and began to ride horses, slowly heading towards the plateau.

In addition, according to the imperial decree sent by Liu Feng last year, Zhang Liao began to expand Jiqu, the central city of the Xizhou Plateau, to build a state government that can accommodate 20 people.

"Ehe Shaoge, Ulunbaatar, tell your people that from now on in this western state, they will make a living selling medicinal herbs, cattle and sheep."

"The main herbs are saffron and cordyceps."

"Cows and sheep are mainly live cattle and sheep that can be sold and slaughtered. They also sell dried meat. After that, we will set up counties, and in each county, officials will come to teach you how to make roasted whole sheep."

"In the future, you can go to our Han people's land to open a shop and do business. When the Han people come to Xizhou to play, you can also make money with this thing."

After the Battle of Xizhou came to an end, Zhang Liao wrote in a note submitted to Liu Feng, "23 stone cities were captured, more than 100 tribal camps were captured, more than [-] Qiang people were captured, and more than [-] million cattle and sheep were captured. .”
