Chapter 242: The Qiang people in Liangzhou are in a frenzy. Defeat the King of Chu! Loot Guanzhong!
Liang Bu Liu Qiang!!
boom! ~
These four words, like a thunderbolt, exploded in Ma Chao's heart.

Ma Chao was stunned for a while, and looked at Han Sui with a look of disbelief: "Liu Wu, he wants to..."

"He wants to kill all the Qiang people in Liangzhou!" Han Sui seemed to have thought of something he hated, and he almost gritted his teeth as he spoke: "Although my nephew's father and I killed many Qiang people, we relied on the Qiang people to get started."

"Everyone knows that I, Han Sui, have countless Qiang people under my command. Even the majority of the legitimate Qiang people in Liangzhou, whose warriors are capable of fighting, may not be as numerous as those under my command!"

"He Liu Zilie wants to [not keep the Qiang in Liang], what should I do with the Qiang people under my command? Shouldn't I keep them either?"

"The Qiang people are the foundation of my existence in Liangzhou. If I kill them all, where will I go? Do I really want to close the door of my home and live a comfortable life as a rich man?"

"Haha... it would be fine if I really wanted to be a rich man, but I'm afraid that by then, I won't be able to be a rich man, and I'm afraid I'll be the fish on Liu Zilie's chopping board first!"

Han Sui became more and more excited as he spoke. At this point, his face was filled with resentment: "Mengqi! You and I are both warriors from Liangzhou. We both rely on the Qiang people to survive. Liu Zilie wants to cut off our foundation..."

"If I don't come to join hands with you to survive, do I have to wait for death in Liu Zilie's camp?"

Han Sui finished speaking, but Ma Chao's mind was still in a mess...

Liu Zilie is crazy!

The Qiang rebellion in Liangzhou has been going on for a hundred years. The Han Dynasty court has almost exhausted half of its national strength to fight against Liangzhou and the Qiang people, but in the end, the Qiang people are still active in this land.

Where did Liu Zilie get the confidence to wipe out the Qiang people when he couldn't even accomplish this with the whole nation's strength?

"Liu Zilie is dreaming!" Ma Chao looked grim.

There was one thing that Han Sui said that was true, that is, the Qiang people in Liang Province were the foundation of these warriors. It was precisely because of the unrest among these Qiang people that these separatist warriors had the soil to dominate Liang Province.

If the Qiang people were gone, would there still be a need for the Liangzhou warriors to exist?

During his six years as governor of Longxi, Ma Yuan, the Fubo General, drove hundreds of thousands of Qiang people out of the Great Wall.

Now, Ma Fubao's descendants are standing on the same side as the Qiang people. Nothing in the world could be more absurd than this.

"If Liu Wu wants to come, then let him come!"

wow~
Ma Chao stood up suddenly. At this moment, he no longer cared about the grudge between him and Han Sui. He used to call Han Sui an old thief, but now he regarded him as an uncle again.

"To be honest with you, uncle, before you entered the city, I had already gathered all the major Qiang tribes around Longxi. As long as we join forces with the Qiang people, why should we be afraid of Liu Zilie in Longxi?!"

Han Sui shook his head: "Not enough."

not enough?

Ma Chao frowned and said, "I have already sent scouts to find out that Liu Wu's army in Liang Province is only about 50,000 to 60,000. Our coalition forces are much stronger than Liu Wu's army, and we are familiar with the terrain of Liang Province. What is there to fear from Liu Zilie?"

This is Liangzhou, not Guanzhong, let alone Jingxiang.

The Qiang people had the advantage of geographical location and people's support. No matter how you look at it, Liu Wu suffered more defeats than victories this time when he entered Liang Province. With the help of the Longxi Qiang people and other large tribes of Qiang people, how could it not be enough?

"Is Liu Zilie really fearless?" Han Sui suddenly asked.

Ma Chao was about to speak, but the scene outside Chang'an City subconsciously appeared in his mind again...

The halberd whistled and screamed, and pierced the horse under his crotch!

The huge banner was shaking, and soldiers like mountains and seas were pressing towards him who was alone!

Ma Chao finally opened his mouth and subconsciously skipped the question: "Then according to my uncle's opinion..."

Han Sui said, "My dear nephew, you have been a powerful figure in Liang Province for a long time. The Qiang people call you the "Godly General"! I am also well-known in Liang Province. If you and I join forces, who among the Qiang people in Liang Province dares not to obey?"

"Didn't Liu Zilie want to [keep the Qiang in Liang]? Then we should just follow his wishes and recruit most of the Qiang people in Liangzhou to form a coalition army..."

Liangzhou is vast, and there are nearly one million Qiang people!
There are at least hundreds of thousands of young and strong soldiers who can fight.

Even Ma Chao only wanted to gather the majority of the Qiang people near Longxi. If he wanted to gather the Qiang people from all over Liangzhou, the scene would be...

Han Sui's mouth curled up with a cold smile: "Not only the Qiang people in Liangzhou, but also the Southern Xiongnu in Bingzhou and the Xianbei on the grassland!"

"We can invite him to Liangzhou together to discuss great things." "Since Liu Zilie has come to Liangzhou, we should treat him well..."

"To deal with people like Liu Wu, there must be no hesitation. We must go all out!"

"The first battle is the decisive battle, and the outcome will be decided in one battle!"

……

Da da da! ~
"Drive! Drive!"

this day,
Dozens of yellow dust rushed out of the four gates of Longxi County City, and they rushed in all directions!

……

The Hehuang Valley is located between the Yellow River and the Huangshui River.

As far as the eye can see,
There is abundant grass and water, fertile land, and large areas of pasture suitable for grazing.

This was originally the land of the Han Dynasty, but after Emperor Wu, the Qiang people crossed the Huangshui River and migrated inland, where they quickly multiplied and grew stronger.

At this moment, there were constant quarrels in the Qiang settlement here.

They received a letter, a letter from Longxi.

"Han Sui and Ma Chao, these two strong men can't deal with the enemy. If we go there, what else can we do except die?"

"Stupid! This time it's not just us going. The letter said that the Qiang people from all over Liangzhou will arrive in Longxi. In Liangzhou, no one can be a match for the Qiang people!"

"What is there for the Han people to be afraid of? Even that damned Duan Xing died before us, didn't he?"

"There are at least hundreds of thousands of young and strong Qiang people gathered in Liangzhou. What battle can't we win?"

"Ma Chao and Han Sui promised in the letter that as long as we win this battle, we will have everything we want in Liang Province and Guanzhong!"

Although the Hehuang Valley is a beautiful place, it is too remote after all.

Guanzhong,
That was where the Emperor of the Han Dynasty once lived. Although the Emperor of the Han Dynasty has moved away now, Guanzhong must be much richer than Hehuang!

"Since the letter from Ma Chao and Han Sui appears in front of us, it must be the will of God..." A rough voice sounded, and all the Qiang leaders looked at him.

He was the greatest leader among the Qiang people in the Hehuang Valley.

He was in his prime, so how could he be willing to stay dormant in this small Hehuang Valley?
The ambitious look in his eyes could not be concealed at all: "Let all the men in the tribe prepare food and sharpen their weapons!"

"Go to Longxi, go to Guanzhong!!"

……

The Shaodang Qiang were the oldest and most powerful tribe of the Qiang people. During their most prosperous period, they attracted the attention of the Han imperial court.

Their ancestors fought a fierce battle with the Han court's army.

Then they fell into decline. Over the years, they have been very dutiful...

But today, cheers rang out in the tribe’s big tent.

"The opportunity has come! Our chance to become strong again has come!"

"As long as we defeat the King of Chu, we can go to Guanzhong and grab everything we need!"

"All Qiang people will participate in this battle. This is a battle that is destined to be a victory for the Qiang people!"

The tribal leader, holding a scroll of bamboo slips, stumbled out of the tent and said, "Gather all the young and strong men!"

“Go to Longxi! Go and obey the orders of [General Shenwei Tian]! Go and cut off the head of the King of Chu!!”
