Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, I revealed to Liu Bei that I was a time traveler

Chapter 309

"Cao Pi?"

Liu Bei looked at Xiao Yuan: "How can the prime minister conclude that this is Cao Pi's handiwork?"

"Do you remember that the minister and the king mentioned that Cao Pi implemented the "Nine Grades Zhongzheng System"?"

Xiao Yuan opened the topic and suddenly asked rhetorically.

Liu Bei's thoughts flipped over, and memories of the past surfaced in his mind.

He vaguely remembered that after Cao Pi inherited the throne of Cao Cao, in order to become emperor, he did not hesitate to implement the "Nine Products Zhongzheng System" in exchange for the support of the wealthy family.

It was this system that changed Cao Cao's national policy of suppressing the family, so that the wealthy family obtained the power to monopolize the high-grade official position from the legal point of view.

It was also this system that laid the root cause of the fall of Cao Wei and the replacement of the Sima clan.

"Of course the king remembers!"

Liu Bei nodded heavily.

"So the king should know that this Cao Pi is a person who has no bottom line to achieve his goals. "

"Only he can make a shameless move to help the Qiang people, not hesitating to cede land and call the Qiang chief a brother. "

Xiao Yuan broke the mystery.

Liu Bei suddenly realized, nodded and said: "The prime minister is reasonable, although Cao Cao is unscrupulous, he still has a bit of a bottom line, and he really can't do this kind of 013 thing, it must be Cao Pi's doing." "

"Since the king and the prime minister are both speculated that this is Cao Pi's handiwork, can Cao Cao agree?"

Pang Tong saw the clue and raised it.

Liu Bei looked at Xiao Yuan with a suspicious expression.

Xiao Yuan looked in the direction of Jincheng: "If the minister's speculation is correct, Cao Pi must have launched a mutiny and seized Cao Cao's military and political power, and now Jincheng should be Cao Pi in charge!"

Everyone looked shocked and slightly surprised.

"The prime minister's speculation should be correct, Cao Pi, this kid can actually kill his brother, and this kind of thing of killing soldiers and seizing power may not be impossible. "

Liu Bei was not surprised, and believed in Xiao Yuan's calculations.

"But we don't have to worry about who is in charge, father and son. "

"Whether it's Cao Cao or Cao Pi, no one can change the outcome of the Cao family's downfall. "

Xiao Yuan smiled coldly, and there was murderous intent in his tone.

Liu Bei then said: "That's right, since the Qiang soldiers have entered, let's take Jincheng directly with the army, and wipe out the Cao clan and the Qiang people!"

The generals of the Han army were all excited.

And at this time.

As soon as he rode the messenger, Pegasus entered the city and knelt in front of the church.

"King Qiqi, General Meng Qi is here to report!"

"Qiang chief Cheriji led more than 20,000 Qiang troops across the river and took the initiative to meet our vanguard army. "

General Meng Qi decided to lead the vanguard army and take advantage of the situation to break the Qiang army, and reported to the king. "

This urgent report made Xiao Yuan frown, and he suddenly realized something.

Liu Bei said curiously: "Cherrigi has such courage to dare to take the initiative to cross the river to meet our army?"

According to the pre-deduction, even if the Qin State received the help of the Qiang army, the number would only be 50,000 or 60,000.

The best strategy can only be to rely on Jincheng and rely on the Yellow River as a barrier to take a defensive position.

Cherry Ji dared to take the initiative to cross the river to fight, which disrupted Liu Bei's prediction in advance, which was quite unexpected.

"Ma Mengqi is among the Qiang people, and he has the prestige of General Shenweitian!"

"This Cherrigi is not afraid at all, and he is so fearless to cross the river to face the battle, could it be that there is fraud in it?"

Pang Tong also sensed that something was wrong.

"Cherrigi is rampant, dare to despise his brother, just let his brother break the Qiang army for the king!"

Ma Yunlu, who was standing behind Xiao Yuan, was extremely confident in his brother Ma Chao.

Her confident voice fell.

Xiao Yuan's eyes moved, and he hurriedly said: "Please send someone to Meng Qi to give an order immediately, ordering his army to camp on the spot, and not to fight with Cherrigie!"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Yunlu's face changed, and he looked at her husband with puzzled eyes.

"Prime Minister, Meng Qi's soldiers and horses are comparable to Cherrigi, and he should have a good chance of winning. "

"Why did the prime minister want him to set up camp in the village, this king didn't understand a little. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Liu Bei (AEAJ) was also quite puzzled by Xiao Yuan's advances.

"This Cheriji is so fearless and dares to cross the river to fight with Meng Qi because he has a strange army, called the Iron Cart!"

"Meng Qi doesn't know the truth and truth, if he fights with this iron chariot soldier, he will definitely lose!"

Xiao Yuan broke the reason.

Iron Riders!

This unheard-of legion shocked everyone present.

Even Ma Yunlu, who has lived in Xiliang for a long time, is at a loss.

"Husband, what kind of army is this iron chariot soldier, why have you never heard of it when the concubine was in Liangzhou?"

Ma Yunlu's eyes flashed with confusion.

"It should have been several years since your Ma clan descended to Cao, and it should have been several years since you left Liangzhou. "

"I suspect that it was during these years that Cherrigi took advantage of these years to build this iron chariot army and use it to dominate the Qianghu tribes. "

"So it's normal for you to be ignorant of the Qiang people. "

Xiao Yuan gave an explanation.

Ma Yunlu was skeptical.

Liu Bei said curiously: "Prime Minister, what is so magical about this iron chariot soldier, the Prime Minister actually thinks that Ma Mengqi must not be an opponent?"

"In fact, this iron chariot soldier is not a secret weapon, it is nothing more than a chariot born from my Han people. "

"In order to conquer the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu began to vigorously develop cavalry and abandoned the chariots with poor mobility. "

"Cherrigi probably picked up the leftover chariots we had left, improved them slightly, and supplemented them with Qiang cavalry, to create an army that was both offensive and defensive. "

"The Qianghu tribes have no experience in fighting chariots, which is equivalent to being hit by the Cherrigi dimensionality, so they will be annexed in just a few years. "

"Meng Qi's tactics are similar to those of the Qiang people, and suddenly facing this iron chariot soldier, how can he not make a big mistake. "

Xiao Yuan was unhurried, and gave Lao Liu the historical materials about the iron chariot soldiers in the historical materials of later generations.

Liu Bei suddenly realized.

Ma Yunlu was surprised: "Why does the husband know the origin of this iron chariot soldier so well?"

Xiao Yuan smiled and said nothing.

Liu Bei stroked his short hair, but he smiled knowingly.

Your husband, but a time-traveler from later generations, naturally knows everything in the world.

"So, the prime minister is the one who has no last resort..."

Liu Bei played a round for Xiao Yuan, and then shouted: "Come on, quickly send someone to spread the word to Ma Mengqi, so that he can set up camp and not fight with the Qiang soldiers!"

As soon as he rode the messenger, he immediately left Yuzhong and roared northwest.

And twenty miles away.

Ma Chao, who looked gloomy, was taking his remnants of the defeated army and silently retreating towards Yuzhong City.

The 20,000 vanguard army, with a loss of 5,000, can be described as a fiasco.

At this time, the messenger Pegasus came and presented Liu Bei's edict.

"Prime Minister Changsu, did you expect that I would lose to Na Cheriji?"

After Ma Chao read the edict, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
