After a few days, Liu Ke finally had time. He took his family to Dongyang Villa outside the city to play, and occasionally went hunting.
It¡¯s fun.
It¡¯s just that Jia Xu¡¯s arrival broke the tranquility.
"Cao Cao's strategy of using all the people as an army is nothing more than fishing from the lake." Liu Kedao.
Fighting in a war has never been about just having a large number of people. Our ancestors have been fighting for thousands of years before summing up the experience of "fine soldiers and strong generals".
"Cao Cao's army is said to be one million, but they are just a bunch of showmen.
Without Liu Ke's attack, the economy will completely collapse over time.
If the people's livelihood is not guaranteed, how can the soldiers fight seriously?
Not to mention paying for it with your life.
Jia Xu obviously saw through this, so his purpose this time was not simply to report the matter.
"My lord, it seems unjustifiable that we do nothing for such a big change in the imperial court."
"Wenhe, what are you going to do?"
"Due to Cao Cao's reforms, the four states ruled by the imperial court are in turmoil. We might as well add a fire."
After listening to Jia Xu¡¯s words, Liu Ke fell into deep thought.
"Are you planning to incite the Qiang people to rebel?"
"As expected of my lord, I guessed right."
Liu Ke nodded. In fact, it was not difficult to guess.
The resistance among the four states was the most intense in Liangzhou, among which the Qiang people were unruly.
Jia Xu is a native of Liangzhou and is very concerned about what happens in Liangzhou.
"General Ma Chao's prestige still exists among the Qiang people. Under Cao Cao's tyranny, the Qiang people miss their former mighty general even more."
¡°I agree with the matter of inciting the Qiang people to rebel, but we are not allowed to use Ma Chao¡¯s name.¡±
Jia Xu wisely did not ask why.
"Leave this matter to me!"
"Um."

In summer and autumn, the fields outside Jincheng County are covered with golden ears of wheat.
Some of the soldiers responsible for farming were waving sickles to harvest grain and complained.
In the past, they only had to work for a while during busy farming periods. It's different now, you still have to go through brutal training.
After the training, I was exhausted and had to harvest food.
When will this damn life end?
On a grassland farther away, there are herds of cattle, sheep and horses. The herdsmen have fed their livestock and returned home with loads.
The autumn wind is getting colder, but the number of children working in the fields is gradually increasing.
The adults all joined the army, and the young ones had to stand up.
They shuttled through the cornfield, breaking off the ripe corns one by one.
Although this year¡¯s harvest is not good, it is still enough to feed people for a year.
It¡¯s just that most of the food must be handed over.
So people¡¯s mood is very heavy.
No matter how hard you work to cultivate and harvest, the results are not yours.
If you don¡¯t work, you will be whipped or arrested by the officers and soldiers.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Suddenly, several people riding tall horses galloped past the field path, breaking the peaceful harvest atmosphere.
Most of the children didn't pay attention, thinking that they were just people going out for hunting, or officers and soldiers in the city, or from wealthy families.
But the soldiers in the field had uneasy looks on their faces. They could see clearly that these people were all Qiang people!
At this sensitive moment, how could the Qiang people appear here?
Immediately afterwards, a series of changes occurred in Jincheng County.
clang clang clang!
The alarm bell at the city gate rang loudly.
The number of garrison troops on the city tower increased several times, and their expressions were solemn.
"Back to the city!"
"Back to the city!"
A messenger rode out on horseback and kept beating the gong to call on the people who were leaving the city.
Everyone in the streets is spreading the news that the Qiang people are trying to rebel and will attack here soon.
The soldiers responsible for the harvest suddenly woke up. The few Qiang people who ran over seemed to be scouts!
By the time they reported it, people from the city were sent to pursue him, but they could no longer find him.
The next day, Jincheng County closed the city gate and prohibited anyone from going out.
By noon,The army discovered that many small black spots vaguely appeared on the endless plain in the distance.
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves shook the ground, and the outlines of a large group of cavalry gradually became clear.
"The rebels are coming! The rebels are coming!"
The defenders panicked and immediately reported the situation to the general.
When the guard general hurriedly climbed onto the city wall and looked from a distance, the scene in front of him made him take a breath of cold air.
The dark Qiang soldiers and horses swarmed into the city like a tide!
Tens of thousands of people stretched from heaven to earth.
And these Qiang people are all dressed in the same clothes - no pockets and fur as armor.
In order to restrict the Qiang people, Cao Cao introduced many measures, such as the forced acquisition of war horses.
The imperial court purchased war horses from the Qiang tribe at a fair price.
But when it came to the governors of Liangzhou, the policy changed.
In order to purchase Qiang war horses with limited funds, the prefects of various counties kept the prices of war horses very low, which also led to dissatisfaction among the Qiang people.
Although the Liangzhou government was prepared for the rebellion, the Qiang soldiers' strength in besieging Jincheng County exceeded everyone's expectations.
There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses!
Among the ten thousand Qiang soldiers, half are cavalry and half are infantry, which can be said to be very shabby.
But how could two thousand trembling officers and soldiers resist more than ten thousand brave and warlike Qiang people?
The Qiang tribe lived a miserable life. In order to prevent them from rebelling, Cao Cao separated many tribes of 10,000 people, euphemistically saying that they refused to fight.
¡° It¡¯s already good to have two thousand Qiang soldiers in Jincheng County.
But this time, directly dispatching tens of thousands of soldiers and horses it is not unusual at all.
This is an organized and premeditated riot!
It may even affect the entire county!
After a battle without any suspense, Jincheng County was captured.
The county captains and magistrates were killed one after another, more than half of the two thousand soldiers were lost, and the rest all fled.
Subsequently, the Qiang people began lawless plunder and massacre.
The imperial court robbed them of their things, and they took it back themselves!
The Qiang people frantically plundered food, money and women, and then burned the county seat of Jincheng County.
"As long as women, children and children resisted even a little, they would be picked up, thrown into the fire, and burned alive.
They are venting their anger!
There were cries and screams in the city one after another, which were so shrill that it was terrifying.
In the thick smoke, the smell of burnt flesh is nauseating.
In an instant, Jincheng County turned into a hell on earth.
¡¡
boom!
Cao Cao was furious.
"Why can the Qiang people still launch a rebellion on such a scale? Tell me, why?"
The civil servants all lowered their heads, even Sima Yi remained silent. This was not his business.
Sima Yi¡¯s focus has always been on Yangzhou, and he doesn¡¯t care much about the rear affairs.
Therefore, Sima Yi can only take care of himself. If he can't handle this small problem, Cao Cao will not be worthy of allegiance.
"My lord, give me five thousand soldiers and horses, and I will put down the rebellion!" Cao Hong stood up and said.
"Five thousand soldiers and horses? When you get to Liangzhou and Jincheng County, the Qiang people can gather at least 30,000 to 50,000 people!" Cao Cao roared.
"My lord, you are so merciful and soft-hearted. If the Qiang people still have strong men to rebel, then you will arrest them all and banish them to the army." Yu Jin said with murderous intent.
The court was in chaos. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
