The governor of Hanzhong and the governor of Yong'an, the governor of Jiangzhou, and the governor of Jiangzhou are called the four major governors of Shu, and the governor of Yong'an is stationed in Yong'an, and the main object of defense is Dongwu, and the governor of Yuzhen is stationed in Nanzhong, and the main governance is the barbarian tribes in Nanzhong, and the governor of Jiangzhou is not permanent, governing Jiangzhou.

And because the governor of Hanzhong is fighting against the most powerful Cao Wei, his position has always been the most important, and he cannot be allowed to be a non-famous general.

The first governor of Hanzhong was Wei Yan, although Wei Yan was arrogant and arrogant, but it is undeniable that his ability was quite outstanding, in the seven years of his town in Hanzhong, outstanding political achievements, when Liu Bei unexpectedly let Wei Yan serve as the Taishou of Hanzhong, he had asked Wei Yan in front of the ministers, Wei Yan replied magnificently and heroically: "Cao Cao came from the world, please refuse for the king; If you want to send 100,000 people, please swallow them for the king. ”

Wei Yan has been in office for seven years, and he has indeed done a lot of practical things, building Zhuwei to keep the enemy out of the country, not only building the two major towns of Hancheng and Lecheng in the hinterland of Hanzhong, but also building many strongholds of Xingshi, Jin, and Yang'an Pass on the periphery of Hanzhong, forming a unique defense system scattered in Hanzhong.

Later, Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition set up the Prime Minister's Mansion in Hanzhong, and Wei Yan no longer served as the governor of Hanzhong, until after Zhuge Liang's death, Wei Yan and Yang Yi fought for power, and the army was defeated and died, and the governor of Hanzhong was served by Wu Yi.

Wu Yi is high-pitched and strong, and he is Liu Bei's eldest brother, who has a special status in Shu, although he has served as the governor of Hanzhong for several years, his reputation is not as prominent as Wei Yan, but he has done some practical things in a down-to-earth manner.

After Wu Yi's death, Wang Ping, who had been serving as the Taishou of Hanzhong, became the governor of Hanzhong.

Wang Ping has also been implementing the previous Wei Yan and Wu Yi's Hanzhong defense ideas, that is, to defend against foreign enemies in a large way, Wang Ping focused his defense on the prosperity and gold in the eastern part of the Hanzhong Basin.

Xingshiwei is located at the mouth of Fugu, which is the primary place to prevent the Wei army from attacking from the meridian road and the Fu Luo road, and the golden siege is the golden gorge located above the Han River, which is an important stronghold to prevent the Wei State from tracing the Han River from Shangyong Xicheng to attack Hanzhong.

According to the information brought back by the fine work of the Wei army and the comprehensive consideration of the terrain characteristics of Hanzhong, Wang Ping believed that the direction of the Wei army's attack must be Fu Luo Dao, so he took Xingshi Mountain as the first pass to guard against the Wei army.

As for Fu Yan's garrison at Huaishu Pass, it is just an outpost camp of the Shu army, with no walls and no villages, just a stronghold set up by virtue of the danger, and compared with the solid Xing Qiang, there is a world of difference.

What's more, Wang Ping never expected that the Shu army would be able to block the hundreds of thousands of male soldiers of the Wei State with this temporary station, and the so-called Huaishu Pass was just a stronghold for Wang Ping to send troops to defend the palace, just to serve as a warning for the army stationed in Xingshi.

Due to the complex terrain of Fu Luo Road and the deep canyon, if Wang Ping did not send people to guard Huaishu Pass, then it is very likely that the Wei army will come to the city and the Shu army will find out.

In order to avoid such a surprise, Wang Pingcai deliberately sent Fu Yi to lead a thousand soldiers and horses to garrison, so that the army stationed in Xingshi did not have to be in a hurry because the Wei army had already attacked the city.

Now that Fu Tong was defeated and fled back, Wang Ping not only reprimanded, but also took the initiative to comfort him, after all, Fu Tong was able to retreat under such a ferocious attack of Wei, which was already quite good, and his performance was remarkable.

Since the Wei army was already approaching the city, and the distance of dozens of miles would be almost instantaneous, Wang Ping immediately summoned the generals to discuss the defense plan.

Since last fall, the Hanzhong armies have been nervously preparing for war in an atmosphere of wolf-incoming, and there have been many warnings before, but it turned out to be nothing more than a false alarm.

But this time, the Wei army really came to the city, and the wolves really came.

How to defend Hanzhong, the generals of the Shu army form a sharp contrast, Du Zhen believes that the defenders of Hanzhong are only about 30,000, and this time the Wei army is coming, the army of 150,000 is five times that of the Shu army in terms of strength, and it is necessary to divide troops to garrison other key passes, so that the army in the state of prosperity can only be maintained at most about 15,000 people, and ten times the enemy to fight, the difficulty is conceivable.

Du Zhen suggested that the Shu army should temporarily avoid the edge of the Wei army, take the initiative to withdraw from the peripheral passes of Xingshi Gold, and concentrate all its forces on Seoul and Lecheng to hold on.

At the same time, immediately send people to ask for help from the Shu army in Fucheng, as long as the reinforcements from Fucheng arrive, the crisis in Hanzhong can be solved.

Du Zhen's words immediately aroused the approval of the generals, and it is true that even if it is a dangerous pass of prosperity, how can there be a chance of victory in the face of a tenfold Wei army? Taking advantage of the Wei army's pre-arrival opportunity, the Shu army took the initiative to concentrate its forces in the second city of Hanle, and resisted the danger in order to barely resist the Wei army's offensive.

And if you really want to repel the enemy army, you must rely on reinforcements from Fucheng.

Liu Min, who joined the army, also said: "Fucheng is more than 1,000 miles away from here, and it will take three or four days for the fast horse to send the message, even if Da Sima starts his troops immediately, it will take at least more than 20 days to reach here. ”

Wang Ping shook his head and said: "Xingshi Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, is the only barrier to prevent the Wei army from entering the Hanzhong Plain, if it is abandoned now, the entire Hanzhong is no longer in danger, the Wei army can go straight to the second city of Hanle, threatening Yangping Pass, if the Wei army takes Yangping Pass, it is equivalent to cutting off the connection between Hanzhong and Shu, even if the Fu soldiers come, they will be blocked in Yangping Pass." ”

"Will the plan be released?" The generals asked in unison.

Wang Ping said in a deep voice: "The only plan for today, the prosperity of the key must not be abandoned, can be shared with the golden siege as a horn, watch and help each other, if the Wei army attacks the momentum, then the golden army will be relieved, if the gold is attacked, the governor will go to the rescue." ”

Wang Ping's attitude is very clear, that is, we must not easily abandon the prosperity of the gold and retreat to Hanzhong, if I retreat, the enemy will inevitably follow, even if the two cities of Hanle are solid and sufficient, but if you want to hold on for a month, no one can guarantee that Hanzhong will not be lost.

"Yui." Since Wang Ping's military order has been issued, as Shu generals, even if they have reservations, they have to obey Wang Ping's general order at this time.
