The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

"So this matter needs a long-term plan!"

Hearing what Liu Zheng said, Himiko calmed down from the initial state of anxiety.

This matter is indeed as Liu Zheng said, how many people Liu Zheng has under his command, Himiko also knows how many people Liu Zheng has during these days with Liu Zheng.

However, there are only 3 to 3 people, even if some of Liu Zheng's personal guards are counted, it will not exceed [-] people.

It is still somewhat difficult for these people to take down the entire Fukuoka City directly.

"What should we do about this?"

Himiko took a step back, and began to ask Liu Zheng what to do.

Liu Zheng walked over and held Himiko's little hand.

"Queen, don't worry, I said I will help you with this matter, and I will definitely help you get Yamatai back. Don't worry so much, return to Kashima with me, and discuss this matter in the long term!"

Chapter 928 Liu Bei's Highlight Moment

Liu Zheng comforted Himiko.

Then continue to let his own army start to seize Yan Baihu's territory.

Liu Zheng actually had the strength to launch an attack on Fukuoka Castle at this time.

After all, in Liu Zheng's view, Gou Guzhi's 3 horses are nothing but a mob.

If Liu Zheng ordered Zhou Tai, Jiang Qinzulang and others to charge and attack Fukuoka Castle, there must still be a great chance to take down Fukuoka Castle.

However, after all, there were more than [-] enemy troops in Fukuoka City. Even if Liu Zheng could defeat them, he would definitely lose a lot of soldiers and horses.

Now Liu Zheng is on Kyushu Island, but there are only more than 3 people, and one death or injury will make Liu Zheng feel distressed.

These were the soldiers his subordinates recruited with great difficulty, and Liu Zheng was still hoping to bring them all back to the big man.

I don't want them all to die in this foreign country.

And if Liu Zheng recuperates for a while, he only needs to return to Ludao, and then occupy Yan Baihu's remnant territory, recruit Yan Baihu's remnant soldiers, and even continue to recruit some slave troops on Kyushu Island.

In this way, Liu Zheng can also have a group of cannon fodder soldiers here, and use the local cannon fodder to attack the local aborigines.

This is the correct way to invade other countries.

As everyone knows, the Manchu Qing with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can defeat the Ming Dynasty with a population of tens of millions.

What they rely on is not their own tens of thousands of cavalry, but the Ming rebels under them.

This is Liu Zheng's idea. After he has compiled the copy of Kumamoto and some slave troops from Kashima, he can recruit at least 2 horses.

Combined with Liu Zheng's current team, it would not be a problem to form a team of about [-] people.

In this way, fighting against Fukuoka City and Gou Guzhi's men again is the way that meets Liu Zheng's expectations.

In this way, the next Liu Zheng is annexing Yan Baihu's territory and preparing for the recruitment of new troops.

Time flies, and it's November.

While Liu Zheng was in full swing on the island of Kyushu to siege cities and loot villages, on the other side of the sea, on the land of Huaxia, something was also happening here.

Liu Zheng left China for more than two months.

In the past two months or so, the situation in the north has not changed much.

Although with the help of Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses, Yuan Shang's own background is not enough, and he is still somewhat incompetent if he wants to fight his second brother Yuan Xi.

Although Yuan Xi seemed harmless to humans and animals, Tian Feng was under his command as a counselor, and he also recruited the Karasuma troops in the north. His troops were once strong. Liu Zheng's troops could only help Yuan Shang regain Jizhou, but he wanted to continue advancing. It is indeed difficult to fight to Youzhou.

After all, Xu Huang, Tai Shici and the others were unwilling to let their troops die completely in the north.

In addition to the winter in November, the north has already entered winter, and the sky is freezing. Xu Huang and Tai Shici's soldiers, who have lived in the south for many years, can't bear this.

Marching and fighting in the winter were not easy for their men and horses.

Therefore, the soldiers Liu Zheng sent in the past did not help Yuan Shang lay down more territory.

The situation in the north has also temporarily settled down.

Yuan Xi himself was also because he didn't have enough troops, even if he wanted to capture Youzhou.But without the help of soldiers and horses sent by Liu Zheng's men, there was nothing he could do.

Although there are no new changes in the north.

However, Liu Bei, the newly appointed general, has made drastic reforms in the past two months.Re-emerged as the precarious Han Dynasty.Lived for a few more years.

The Xiliang rebels, led by Han Sui, had already reached Sanfu.

Even General Lu Zhi died of illness because he went to suppress the rebellion. Without Lu Zhi's Xiliang, those rebels became even worse.

The entire Xiliang fell into the hands of the rebels, and after there was no one who could restrain these rebels, the people in the court invited Liu Bei to be the new general and went to Luoyang to preside over the overall situation.

As Lu Zhi's disciple, Liu Bei naturally took over the duties of his teacher. The matter of Liu Zheng in the south should be put aside for the time being, and we will try our best to solve these rebels.

Liu Bei led his [-] elite troops to replace part of Lu Zhi's remnant army. In Chang'an City, he had [-] soldiers and horses to guard Chang'an. Intense confrontation.

However, Liu Bei personally sits in Chang'an, plus his second brother Guan Yu.

With another [-] troops sitting in the town, it is naturally impossible for Han Sui to defeat Liu Bei in Chang'an City.

But Han Sui, who has been operating in Xiliang for many years, has united with some Qiang people, and has more than [-] troops.

Although he failed to capture Chang'an City, it made his arrogance even more arrogant.

The soldiers and horses gradually began to spread to Bingzhou and conquered Xiliang, but he was not enough to want to seize a larger territory.Carve up the territory of the Han Dynasty.

No way, in order to find a way to deal with Han Sui, Liu Bei knew that it would be difficult to defeat Han Sui relying on external forces.

Because the current Liu Bei and even the current Han Dynasty do not have such abilities.

It is impossible to gather nearly [-] troops to fight Han Sui again in a short period of time.

So Liu Bei thought, since Han Sui could not be disintegrated from the outside, he should conquer Han Sui from the inside.

He first recruited some local people from Xiliang to find out why Han Sui's rebel army kept betraying the big man repeatedly.

After learning about some things about Han Sui, Liu Bei thought of an excellent solution.

In fact, Han Sui and others did not intend to rebel against the big man at first.

The reason why they did these things was completely forced by those Qiang people at the beginning.

The Qiang people wanted to break away from the Han and launched an uprising.

It's just that they learned from no one.So I found a few officials from Xiliang at that time.

And Han Sui is one of them.At the beginning, Han Sui was only coerced to join the uprising army, but later the scale of the uprising became bigger and bigger.Han Sui gradually replaced Bian Zhang and became the strongest Xiliang warlord.

Of course, Han Sui was not the actual power holder among these warlords.

The troops under Han Sui's command were formed by many different warlords.

Han Sui was only the leader elected by these people.

Ma Teng, Yang Qiu, Liang Xing and more than ten troops are under his command.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although on the surface they are of one mind and unanimous to the outside world, there are already cracks inside.

For example, here, the two most powerful people, Han Sui and Ma Teng.

Ma Teng was actually unwilling to rebel against the big man.

He can be said to be the most loyal person to the big man among all the people.

Ma Teng was born after Ma Yuan, General Fubo of the big man, and had a deep affection for the big man.

Chapter 929 Two Tigers Compete for Food

When Ma Teng rebelled against the big man at the beginning, he was actually forced, but after being appeased by Huangfusong's men, Ma Teng fell into the embrace of the big man again.

And held a relatively important position.

The days are passable.

Ma Teng is easily satisfied.

But later, Dong Zhuo, the shepherd of Liangzhou who was in charge of Xiliang, and Han Sui, the governor of Liangzhou, had a conflict.

Han Sui, the main reason these people rebelled against the big man was not because they had no feelings for the big man.

On the contrary, they have a deep affection for the big man.

But Dong Zhuo's existence contributed to Han Sui's feelings for the big man to wear off a little bit.

Dong Zhuo was ambitious. Step by step, he climbed to the position of Xiliang Mu. In his early years, he didn't have much ambition, but as the power of the Han Dynasty gradually weakened, the Central Plains gradually became a place of war.

The great Han has long been unable to control the princes from all over the country.

In Dong Zhuo's eyes, he didn't care much about the big guy anymore.

Dong Zhuo wanted to occupy Xiliao as his base first, and then seize larger territories step by step.

However, the first problem facing Dong Zhuo was Han Sui, the governor of Xiliang.

Although Dong Zhuo was the shepherd of Liangzhou in name, Han Sui was also a governor of this place.

There is not much difference in official positions between the two, and naturally their military strength is also similar.

If he could annex Han Sui's forces, then Dong Zhuo would definitely become the most powerful warlord in Xiliang and even the entire north in one fell swoop.

In this way, Dong Zhuo took the lead in attacking Han Sui on the grounds that Han Sui colluded with the Qiang people and wanted to rebel.

In such a big battle, Dong Zhuo deployed in advance, specifically targeting Han Sui, with the purpose of defeating Han Sui directly before Han Sui could react.

Killing Han Sui was caught off guard, but Dong Zhuo was obviously a little arrogant.Han Sui not only has tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers and horses, but also has a sworn brother Ma Teng.

Ma Chao, Ma Teng's eldest son, performed extremely bravely in this battle. Although he was only 16 years old, he killed Dong Zhuo's men and horses and fled in embarrassment. Even Dong Zhuo died in Ma Chao's hands.

As soon as Dong Zhuo died, Liangzhou fell into Han Sui's hands logically.

Originally, Han Sui still had a good impression of the big man, but after Dong Zhuo's incident, Han Sui knew that these Han people could not be trusted, and would come to beat them at any time. After all, Han Sui and others had stains on them.

After all, he had betrayed the big Han before and launched an uprising with the Qiang people.

Now Dong Zhuo came to trouble them again because of this matter.

Han Sui already believed in his heart that the court would always use this matter to hold them accountable.

He simply didn't wait for the court to trouble him, and simply rebelled again by himself.

Only when you are strong, the court will be afraid of it and dare not deal with you easily.

This is why Han Sui launched a rebellion again.

But Han Sui wanted to start a war, but the other men under him were not willing.

Ma Teng is one of them.

Originally, my petty official did a great job and lived a pretty good life.

However, some wars were launched again, making Ma Teng old and had to go to the battlefield again.

This is not what Ma Teng is willing to do.

Han Sui wanted to lead troops to attack Chang'an several times, but Ma Teng tried his best to dissuade him.

After this matter was known by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei immediately sent Cheng Yu, his adviser, to Ma Teng's account, trying to lobby Ma Teng.

Liu Bei is very smart.

On the one hand, they sent people to Ma Teng's barracks to lobby Ma Teng.

I want Ma Teng to return to the embrace of the court.

On the other hand, Liu Bei sent someone to inform Han Sui of the news that he had sent someone to Ma Teng's army tent to lobby Ma Teng.

In this way, regardless of whether Ma Teng is willing to join Liu Bei in the end.

There must be chaos among the Xiliang army.

If Ma Teng is willing to take refuge in himself, he will take the opportunity to launch an extermination campaign against Han Sui.With the help of Ma Teng and the troops under Ma Teng's command, Liu Bei had the strength to eliminate Han Sui.

If Ma Teng is unwilling to join him, then Liu Bei will send someone to tell Han Sui that Ma Teng and Liu Bei are in collusion.

It will also arouse Han Sui's suspicion of Ma Teng.
