Yang Fu's words slowly trailed off.

The deputy in the center came to some understanding after pondering for a moment after his instructions.

"Sir, what you are saying is that although our current frontline battle situation is tense, we cannot be too hasty when sending envoys to Xiqiang, showing our eagerness and being exploited by the other party?"

"Um!"

As soon as he said this, the smile on Yang Fu's face grew thicker, he nodded in agreement, and responded: "That's true. If you show an eager attitude, it will make us inferior!"

"It will make the Xiqiang monarchs and ministers mistakenly think that we are asking for help from him, and will be restrained by him."

One word after another.

After Yang Fu told the story, the deputy at the table also looked extremely solemn and expressed his agreement.

…

And in the palace at this moment.

Prime Minister Yadan said goodbye to the inn and came straight with the crowd on horseback.

He stood waiting outside the palace gate and ordered the palace guards to go and inform King Qiang that he had something urgent to see.

It takes about two quarters of an hour to come and go.

Yadan just walked into the palace with his head held high.

Entering the palace, he was led into the side hall by the guards who looked like wolves and tigers, with tall bodies and swords.

Looking away, I saw that the Qiang King Cheliji was wearing a crown and wearing a banquet that looked like the uniform of the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains Dynasty.

He is about eight feet five in length, with eyes as sharp as an eagle, eyebrows as straight as a sword, a mustache, long cheeks, and gnarled muscles.

I saw that he imitated the princes and kings under the Han Dynasty and wore the same royal robes. He indeed had a unique flavor and a heroic appearance.

This move is also related to Prime Minister Yadan.

The tribe that Qiang King Cheliji originally belonged to was only a small part of the northwest area of ​​Shaodangji, and its power was low.

But he was brave and good at fighting, and he was extremely brave, and he successively recruited Yue Ji and other generals who were brave, powerful and proficient in military use.

Cheriji gradually used his tribe's power to wipe out the surrounding tribes.

In a short period of time, the territories in the northwest of Shaodang Qiang were unified.

When King Shaodang Qiang heard about this retribution, he became very angry and immediately mobilized all the tribesmen to attack him.

However, they were defeated one after another and the campaign ended in failure.

It is precisely because of this that Cheliji's power in the Qiang land gradually doubled.

As his reputation gradually grew, he also attracted many outstanding people under his command.

Prime Minister Yadan is naturally one of them.

And it is also because of Yadan's joining that Cheriji's power has experienced rapid development.

Under its layout, an eastward expansion road was planned.

Under such circumstances, Cheliji led his troops to march eastward. Taking advantage of the decline of the Han Dynasty and the rampant warlords in Liangzhou, who were separatist, they fought successively and conquered a large area of ​​land on the western border of Jincheng.

Fighting all the way out from the remote mountain tribes in the remote mountains.

They took the opportunity to seize a lot of Han territory on the border.

Although these sites are also dilapidated places for the always magnificent Central Plains.

But for the Qiang people who have never seen the world and live in the mountains, they are extremely wealthy.

Because they have captured a lot of territory in the west of Jincheng County.

At Yadan's suggestion, Linqiang, a place with excellent terrain, was chosen as the capital.

Therefore, Cheliji followed the example of the Han Dynasty and established himself as the Qiang King. He established the title of King and established the name of the country as Western Qiang Kingdom.

Because I listened to Yadan’s suggestions.

Regarding the establishment of the Western Qiang Kingdom, Cheriji almost imitated the Central Plains Dynasty and promulgated various systems and etiquette, etc., all of which he admired and learned from the Han Dynasty.

Even the official titles followed the Central Plains Dynasty.

Yadan was appointed prime minister, in charge of state affairs, and became an important minister of the country.

He also granted Yue Ji the title of general, in charge of all the troops in the country and in charge of the military affairs.

In terms of status, these two people are almost the pillars of the Western Qiang Kingdom.

As for the rest of the civil and military personnel, they should all be rewarded.

Officials were given according to their official names in Han Dynasty.

After Prime Minister Yadan took full responsibility for handling the government affairs of the country.

He also took full power to promote Chineseization within the country.

Organize ethnic groups to learn Chinese, study ancient Confucian classics, wear Han clothes, speak about Chinese culture, and intermarry with local Han people.

Not only that, even the laws mainly follow Han laws.

It was also under the leadership of Yadan.

Although there are many voices in the country that oppose Sinicization, they have been firmly implemented.

And under its excellent government affairs handling and governance methods.

Just now we have the scene of Linqiang, the capital of the country, with a dense population, flourishing commerce, and bustling traffic.

As well as imitations of the court uniforms of Han officials, and the Qiang King Cheliji all wore Han royal robes.

Almost all of these came from the hands of Prime Minister Yadan.

Looking at the Qiang King sitting on the throne from a distance, Prime Minister Yadanfang quickly raised his hands and saluted as he approached: "I am here to see you, Your Majesty."

"I have fulfilled my mission and have arranged for Ambassador Cao to rest at the post station. Now I have come to the palace specifically to resume my duties!"

As soon as this was said.

After hearing this, Cheriji, who was sitting on the mat quietly drinking a small drink, couldn't help but put down the wine glass in his hand in an instant, and quickly raised his head to look down.

Then he waved his hand and said: "No courtesy!"

Since Yadan surrendered to him, his forces have become stronger and stronger.

Cheridge maintained full trust in himself.

Now seeing him coming to report, a serious look appeared on his face.

"Prime Minister, how is the situation?"

"Cao Cao is here to help us, is it possible?"

In one word.

Yadan did not dare to neglect, and quickly told the truth about the debate he had just had with Yang Fu, as well as the causes and consequences.

After a long while.

After hearing this slowly, Cheriji seemed to have a thoughtful look on his face. He pondered for a while and then said, "Is this so?"

"It seems that the Cao family wants to connect with our country."

"But according to your opinion, Prime Minister, should we join forces with him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, after hearing his inquiry, Yadan's expression did not change. He continued to maintain a serious tone and responded with his hands raised:

"King Qiang, in accordance with the wishes of his ministers, naturally supports the establishment of good relations with the Cao family."

"It's just that during the debate just now, I underestimated the envoy and made some small mistakes in the middle, which allowed him to seize the opportunity."

"Therefore, the ministers did not express their intention to unite with him, but came to discuss various matters with King Qiang first."

As soon as he said this, he saw that the Prime Minister, whom he relied on as an important minister, had eyes so bright that he seemed to be showing a certain amount of confidence, and he spoke with great awe.

For a moment, Qiang King Cheliji couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, and asked in a deep voice: "I suggest an alliance, but I don't know what the prime minister has in mind. Can you tell me in detail?"

"The king has this order, and I don't dare to neglect it!"

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Yadan immediately went to the company to give a solemn salute, and then continued: "Your Majesty, although we have expanded eastward to Jincheng County, we have basically occupied all the Han land in the west."

"But the Cao family still enjoys the entire northern land, and its power is still the best in the world, and it is proud of all the heroes in the world."

"The majesty of its military is far beyond what our current military can match."

When the words came to this point, Yadan paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something in his heart. After a while, he continued to analyze: "From this point of view, we must not continue to expand eastward in the future."

"That will affect the core counties of Liangzhou."

"The Cao family will definitely not sit idly by and watch our attack. It will definitely cause our army a big trouble and dispatch the elite divisions stationed in Guanzhong to put down the rebellion."

"Prime Minister, is this really so serious?"

"According to the truth and facts carefully investigated, it turns out that the Shu army in the separatist state of Shu can only attack with a few thousand troops. Cao's side seems to be powerless, unable to drive them back, defeat them, and consolidate the border areas."

"Is Cao's army really so fearsome in combat?"
