Liangzhou Guzang.
The drought is also spreading to the Hexi Corridor. Although it is not as serious as Guanzhong and Guandong, it still makes Fu Ya very anxious.
Because the decrees of his "King of Western Qin" could not leave Guzang City.
In the past, local governments only dared to obey and disobey, but now they directly refuse to implement it openly. No matter how wise Fu Ya's decree is, it cannot be carried out.
The local counties and counties went their own way, and some eunuchs, with the support of local nobles and powerful men, were preparing to make moves.
In addition to the local powerful people who disobeyed orders, the Xianbei, Lu Shuihu, Xiongnu, and Qiang people were also restless, attacking and annexing each other.
Fu Jian destroyed the Zhang family in Liangzhou, but the local powerful were not convinced. They were frightened by the strength of the Qin army at that time and had no choice but to lie dormant. Now that Di Qin has been destroyed, Fu Ya's 20,000-strong army cannot suppress the local snakes in Liangzhou. .
However, there were many things that troubled Fu Ya. The scouts rushed to report, "Your Highness... the Gaoping Qiang people are causing trouble!"
This is the fifth Qiang rebellion since the beginning of winter.
The first four incidents were all put down by Fu Ya with lightning speed.
But this time it was different. Gaoping was on the border of Longshang to the east of the Yellow River, close to Yao Chang's Nan'an County. Fu Ya immediately smelled danger.
"The last general will lead his troops to defeat him!" Mao Sheng pressed his hand on the handle of the knife.
"No, Gaoping is sandwiched between Fu Luo and Yao Chang. The rebellion here was obviously deliberately provoked by someone. Don't fall into the trap." Fu Ya fought in the north and south, and was always a good general. He could tell at a glance that there was something special behind this rebellion. .
Now Yao Chang has returned from Yongcheng and is eyeing Liangzhou.
Fu Luo in the north is also preparing his troops.
There are also various forces within Liangzhou that are also waiting for an opportunity.
The place where Qiang people gather is not only Longyou, there are also many Qiang tribes in Liangzhou.
The most indispensable thing in this era is ambitious people.
"Is Gao Ping just giving up to others like this?" Wang Tong, the general said.
Fu Ya stood up and stared at the cowhide map. The lines on it were crooked and not standard in many places, but they were enough to see the current situation in Kansai. "If our army moves, it will give up Liangzhou to others."
Everyone was speechless for a while.
Yao Chang is cunning and aggressive, and the secret war between the two sides has already begun.
Many powerful people in Liangzhou secretly took refuge, making the situation even more dangerous.
If Fu Ya is not careful, he will lose everything.
If you fall into the hands of Daliang, you can still become a rich man. If you fall into the hands of Yao Chang, you may die without a burial place...
The army staying in Guzang can at least maintain the current situation.
"Your Highness, the Jia, Yin, Suo, Song, Qu and other wealthy families advocate continuing to respect the Jin Dynasty." At this time, Sima Gouchang came into the hall to report.
"They are pushing me to roast me, and they are also demonstrating." Fu Ya could see through the thoughts of the powerful people at a glance, but she didn't look too nervous, as if she had already figured it out.
When Zhang Zuo usurped the throne, he arrogated the title of emperor, established an ancestral temple, danced the Eight-Yuan Dance, and appointed hundreds of officials, which already caused a falling out with the Jin Dynasty.
In recent years, the Jin Dynasty has been based on the left side of the Yangtze River and lacked interest in matters in the north. Its legitimacy has also been declining, and it was gradually replaced by the Liang Kingdom.
At this time, if the banner of respecting the Jin Dynasty is used, Fu Ya will immediately become the target of attack by the barbarians in Liangzhou.
Still not welcome by Liang Guo...
And the fact that these powerful nobles came together to advocate for the Jin Dynasty was also a hint to Fu Ya that they had reached an agreement and were colluding together...
"With your highness' talents, you can conquer Pingliang Province in ten days. Why should you be so afraid of them?" Mao Sheng did not have such a good temper as Fu Ya.
"If I send troops to attack the enemy, I will help Yao Chang!" Fu Ya said calmly.
Yao Chang's attack on Yongcheng was equivalent to his first strike, and his ambition was clearly revealed.
Now Longyou is also suffering from drought and locust plagues. The Qiang people's eyes are red with hunger, and the only people around them who can rob are Liangzhou...
"Then we can only ask Fu Luo for help." Gou Chang said with cupped hands.
"We can continue to fight without asking for help. Once we ask for help, Fu Luo may attack us first." Fu Ya knew this nephew very well. He always believed in his bravery and was known as an enemy of ten thousand people. His ambition was not inferior to that of Yao Chang.
How can he hold back this piece of fat in Liangzhou?
Mao Sheng said unwillingly: "Are you just waiting to die?"
If you send troops, you will die. If you don't send troops, you will die. If you wait until Liang Jun marches westward, you will die...
This drought greatly affected the world structure.
"Has the person who went to Luoyang to inquire about the situation come back?" Fu Ya stretched.
"I just returned this morning." Gou Chang said with cupped hands.
"How is the situation?" Fu Ya was extremely concerned about this matter.
"Each family... was given mansions and fields to support themselves. The prince and the younger generation were recruited into some kind of martial arts hall. It was said that it was a place where Liang Guo cultivated talents. Li Yuechang personally taught him a lesson. The prince... became the crown prince of Liang Guo. Read along..."
In fact, what should be known has been introduced to Liangzhou through various channels.
"Shangwu Hall, I've heard its name for a long time, that's enough, that's enough, that's enough." Fu Ya said "that's enough" three times in a row, her expression became more relaxed, and most of the fatigue on her face was gone, "Send the order, go to the King of Western Qin He was demoted to the rank of governor of Liangzhou and general of Zhenxi, and sent people to Yecheng to request surrender."
"How can your Highness return to the enemy's country?" Mao Sheng's name was correct. He had a beard and hair all over his face, and when he was angry, he was like a tiger.
Fu Ya glanced at him sideways, "If I can pacify the powerful internally, resist the Qiang externally, and repel Daliang's Western Expedition in the future, I will let you be the king of Western Qin."
"This..." Mao Sheng looks rough, but he is not a fool.
After a quick glance, Gou Chang and Wang Tong both glared at him angrily. As long as he dared to nod, he would be dead and dismembered immediately.
The reason why Liangzhou is still stable is entirely due to Fu Ya's prestige. Once he abdicates, not to mention Liangzhou's powerful people, even the Di people will be in chaos.
Mao Sheng knew how much he had, and he was barely a good player when charging into battle. If he was allowed to take charge, he would be forcing others to do something difficult.
"The drought and locust plague in Guandong has subsided. It can be seen that God's will is on Liang. Now that I have returned to Liangzhou, I can also find a long-term future for Fu, Mao and Gou in China. In the current situation, the only way to have a chance of survival is to return to Liang!" "
The situation in the world has become clear. Fu Jian's Di Qin can't stop him, let alone the land of Liangzhou?
Moreover, the powerful nobles in Liangzhou may not be willing to fight to the death with Liang Guo.
Yao Chang dared to rebel because he had the Longyou Qiang people as his base, and the Fu family's family fortune was all in Guanzhong. By joining Daliang, the powerful Liangzhou gentry could feel at ease.
The more bordering the place, the more centripetal force it has towards the orthodoxy of the Central Plains.
Mao Sheng took a long breath and said, "That's all. The Fu family cannot be single-minded. How can they resist others? The sooner you defect to Daliang, the sooner you save trouble... But if the soldiers don't obey..."
Fu Ya looked determined, "The destruction of the Qin Dynasty was caused by heaven's destruction, not war. The unification of China is the general trend. Anyone who does not follow will be killed!"
He doesn't want to stand out from the crowd. There are some things that he doesn't care much about, but there are some things that he cares about very much.
