When King Feng Gui conquered Jincheng, he tricked Zhang's uncle and nephew who were from one of the largest families in Liangzhou. It was really hard to tell.

Xu Miao may not have known that Zhang's uncle and nephew actually fell into a big hole dug by Lao Feng.

But does he have a choice?

Failure to punish is not enough to calm people's hearts.

If the punishment is too severe, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of Liangzhou's wealthy families.

So he had no choice at all.

In fact, if that's all it is, then that's it.

Because at most Feng Gui Wang wanted to trick the Zhang family's uncle and nephew, and at the same time lay a trap between Xu Miao and the Dunhuang Zhang family, that's about it.

But I can't stand the fact that there is a female middle school Zhuge behind him.

This woman's surname is Zhang, her first name is Xingyi, and her given name is Xiaosi.

It was the time when the Ghost Queen, ahem, wrong, it was around the time when the Feng family's wife gave birth and Zhang Xingyi officially took over the internal affairs of the Xiaowei Mansion.

After being severely beaten by King Feng Gui, Liangzhou completely reduced its military strength, and Xu Miao was even prepared to die for his country.

Unexpectedly, the Shu people retreated contentedly after taking over the surrounding areas of Liangzhou, and did not take advantage of the victory to pursue them.

It was indeed beyond Xu Miao's expectation.

Of course, it’s not like the Shu people didn’t take any follow-up actions.

For example, he frantically dumped goods to Liangzhou, simply not treating Xu Miao as a human being.

But even if Xu Miao knew that the other party didn't regard him as a human being, there was nothing he could do about it.

Because everyone in Liangzhou, from the rich to the miscellaneous, is very welcoming to things from the Shu people. They all gave thumbs up and praised "Yakexi":

"This brown sugar is sweet, this wine is delicious, this wool is warm..."

There is no way, we are a bunch of country bumpkins, we have never seen much of the world, how do you tell us to refuse this damn sweetness?

If Xu Miao really dares to cut off the trade with Longyou, there is no doubt that the Shu people have not attacked yet, and there are righteous people in Liangzhou who are preparing to pack food and ride horses to meet the king's army.

After Longyou fell into the hands of the Shu people, the Liangzhou wealthy family has been swinging between two directions. In addition to wanting to get more benefits from the Shu people, there is another key:

In the eyes of the world, the Wei State is still powerful enough, and no one knows whether the Wei State will regain Longyou.

Until the last moment, with the urinary temperament of the wealthy family, it is naturally impossible to make a bet easily, or to bet on both sides.

What's more, after Longyou fell into the hands of the Shu people, Xu Miao finally re-established the communication channel between Liangzhou and Guanzhong through various details in the caravan.

As the Han Dynasty continued to penetrate and divide Liangzhou, it resulted in a strange situation where Liangzhou and Longyou were obviously hostile, but their commercial exchanges were increasingly prosperous.

However, under this situation, the Dunhuang Zhang family, who was buried by Feng Guiwang, soon exploded.

The Zhang family sent Zhang to Longyou!

This made Xu Miao, who was already wary of Liangzhou's wealthy families, even more distrustful.

There is no way, more and more caravans are coming between Longyou and Liangzhou. Who knows how many connections those wealthy families have with the Shu people?

It was also after Zhang Ju arrived in Longyou that Zhang Xiaosi had a heart-to-heart talk with King Feng Gui on the couch one night, "Yue people said Tianmu" and so on.

Of course, during heart-to-heart talks, chatting about ghosts and gods, etc., they naturally also talked about Zhang Jiu's coming to Longyou, so Zhang Xiaosi got a promise from Feng Guiwang that he could appropriately allocate resources.

With Zhang Xiaosi's intervention, everything will become complicated. Otherwise, would the female middle school student Zhuge's name be in vain?

Therefore, the original young master of the Bald Tribe, Tufa Kheli, originally wanted to lead his people eastward to seek refuge with King Feng Gui and imitate Liu Hun, the Xiongnu son, in order to gain a better background.

Unexpectedly, he was so humiliated by King Feng Gui in the end that he ran to Liangzhou to join the Wei people in anger.

There are strong enemies outside, and there is turmoil among the wealthy families inside. However, Xu Miao, who is short of manpower, unexpectedly gets this elite barbarian cavalry. Is there any reason not to be overjoyed?

Of course, he is not stupid, and it is not for no reason that he can believe in the bald man.

After all, Hao Zhao had recruited the Bald Tribe many times during his lifetime, and even sent five thousand elite cavalry from his tribe to support Longyou during the Battle of Longyou.

Moreover, in the early years of Taihe, Qu Ying of Xiping rebelled, and the rest of his troops fled to the West Sea. It was Bald-faced Khotan who beheaded the leader of the thieves and sent them to the Western Capital in person.

Therefore, in Xu Miao's eyes, the Bald Ministry has always been relatively deferential to Wei.

The relationship between the Bald Hair Department and the Shu people is not very good.

When the Qiang were in chaos in Longxi, the Tufa tribe went south and snatched a large number of livestock and people from those Qiang and Hu, and finally took advantage of Feng Yong.

I heard that even Shao Jun, who had bald hair, was forced to kneel in front of Feng Yong's house for a long time.

After the Wei Dynasty lost Xiping, most of the Qiang and Hu people in the Huangshui Valley turned against the Shu people. Only the Tufa tribe still guarded the West Sea, unwilling to fully obey the orders of the Shu people.

In Xu Miao's opinion, the Bald Hair Tribe is much more trustworthy than the local wealthy families in Liangzhou.

Of course all this would be true if Feng Guiwang had no friendship with the Bald Hair Department.

But let alone Xu Miao, even within the Han Dynasty, no one knew about the great friendship between Feng Yong and the Bald Hair Ministry in the early years, except for Zhao Guangguan Ji and others who were the first to follow Feng Yong.

And when Feng Yong makes things difficult for Bald Hair, he is actually trying to tame the wolf.

So Xu Miao never thought that the one he was using to guard the door was a wild wolf that had been tamed by King Feng Gui and then deliberately released.

This wolf still has some wild nature in his bones, and might still bite people in the absence of King Feng Gui.

But as long as Feng Ghost King is still there, it will only listen to Feng Ghost King's words.

Now Feng Guiwang lets him guard the door for others... of course he will do it obediently!

Anyway, while it can get funding from King Feng Gui, other people also offer it a hefty salary.

Everyone likes doing one job and getting two wages.

"The news came from the captain's mansion. I heard that Liu Han... well, Liu Liang also went to Liangzhou after the beginning of spring..."

When Zhao Yun heard this, he glanced at Feng Yong strangely again and said, "That's fine. Just arrange it at your own pace."

"Spring has just begun. The snow in Liangzhou has just melted, and the caravans have not fully resumed their travels."

"The news of the Battle of Xiaoguan has not spread widely in Liangzhou yet. So we have to wait."

"wait?"

"That's right, just wait."

As Zhao Yun spoke, he found a place to sit down, knocked on the table gently, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"In another two or three months, the news of the Battle of Xiaoguan should have spread to every corner of Liangzhou. At that time, it will be a good time to send troops."

Speaking of this, Zhao Yun sneered:

"At that time, not to mention those families who secretly have dealings with Long You, even Xu Miao himself will be beaten to the point of losing all his spirit."

When Feng Yong heard Zhao Yun's words, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The old man... is indeed old and spicy.

Twenty thousand to one hundred thousand, and Cao Dasima, the highest-ranking member of the Wei army, personally led the army.

This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the morale of Wei's military and civilians.

Figures like Cao Cao had to take a series of measures to stabilize their internal affairs after the Battle of Chibi.

What's more, Xu Miao had just been appointed governor of Liangzhou during the Battle of Longyou.

Not only did he not have the opportunity to be kind to Liangzhou like in the original history, he even had to take precautions against the wealthy people in Liangzhou.

When Liangzhou is completely sure of the news and all kinds of emotions are fully fermented, it is possible that he will collapse.

"And in more than two months, it will be the time to harvest wheat."

Zhao Yun looked at Feng Yong and said something meaningful again.

Damn it!

Old man, looking at your thick eyebrows and big eyes, I never thought that you are not a kind person!

This was all if he didn't take action. Once he did, he never thought of giving Xu Miao a chance.

After talking to Zhao Yun about the matter and arranging the well-fed students outside, Feng Yong returned to his courtyard in Jicheng. The sky was already darkening.

Under the dim light from the courtyard, a woman was standing at the door of the courtyard holding a lantern, waiting for her husband's return.

Looking at this familiar scene in front of him, Feng Yong actually felt a little dazed.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Xingyi looked at Feng Yong standing not far in front of her, and for some reason, he suddenly stopped and took a few steps forward with a lantern in hand.

The bright light of the lantern reflected the deep thought on Feng Yong's face, and Zhang Xingyi couldn't help but ask.

Feng Yong woke up from his brief memories and looked at the woman in front of him. He took the lantern from her hand, held her hand at the same time, and walked towards the yard with her:

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered the past."

"before?"

"Well, three years ago. At that time, you were standing at the gate of the yard like this..."

After hearing this and thinking of her previous entanglement with him, Zhang Xingyi felt surrounded by a layer of slightly sad sweetness, and she subconsciously held Feng Yong's hand.
