"I said I would make sure these Xianbei cavalry never return."
Liu Wei sneered, "Since they've gone to Dunhuang, let General Xue wipe out these ten thousand Xianbei cavalry, and then chase them all the way to Dunhuang, hehe!"
While pursuing the Xianbei cavalry, they also took Dunhuang and Jiuquan.
The four prefectures of Hexi are Wuwei, Zhangye, Dunhuang, and Jiuquan.
Currently, Ding Yuan has mobilized troops from various locations to fight against the rebels in Wuwei, Anding, and Xiping.
Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang were short of troops; how could they possibly stop these ten thousand Xianbei cavalry?
Since Ding Yuan doesn't have time to manage it, let Liu Wei, the King of the Clouds, take charge.
Thinking of the assassination attempts sent by Empress He and Empress Dowager Dong a few days ago, I'll just consider collecting some interest in the three prefectures of Hexi.

"I never expected that Di Qing would take this step, which has broadened my horizons in Hexi and the Western Regions!"
While Liu Wei was conserving his strength, stockpiling grain, and building high walls, he took advantage of the Xianbei invasion to make great strides, not only capturing Juyan Lake but also about to extend his reach into the Hexi Corridor and the Western Regions. This was truly icing on the cake!
"Your Highness, Prefect Zhang of Yunzhong County has reported that he has obtained the 50,000 catties of salt and iron and the 1,000 sets of armor."

"The coarse salt is to be delivered to me for disposal. The iron ingots are to be sent to Guo Luo in Woye Town. As for the armor, Prefect Zhang can arrange it himself."
Liu Wei replied.
"Zhang Liao, the prefect of Shuofang Commandery, requested permission to attack Dongsheng and Guluo City."
"No, order Zhang Liao to train his troops on the spot and pay close attention to the movements of Beidi Commandery."
"......"
After Liu Wei handled several military matters, the official from Sima's residence also resigned.
With Xue Rengui absent, Liu Wei handled military affairs himself, while Yao Guangxiao made decisions on political matters, so Liu Wei was not bothered.
Liu Wei stretched lazily, looked at the location of the three counties in Hexi on the map, and nodded while stroking his chin.
At this moment, Wei Kai reported: "Cai Yong and his daughter have requested an audience with the Prince for the tenth time."
"Should we see them this time?"
