Although Zhang Song was executed, the situation of Cao's army would not change because of Zhang Song's death, so Liu Zhang appointed Zhang Ren as the general, Wu Yi, Leng Bao, Lei Tong, and Wu Lan as the deputy generals, and Huang Quan as the military advisor, leading an army of 40,000 to resist the Cao army.

Liu Zhang heard that the number of Cao Jun was not too many, and hoped that Zhang Ren and them could take advantage of the danger of the mountains and rivers in Yizhou to expel all the enemies who committed in the future.

After Zhang Ren received the order, he was afraid that Cao Jun would conquer the Sword Pavilion Pass, in that case, Yizhou would really be in no danger to defend. In a hurry, Zhang Ren led the army in a hurry, and finally rushed to the Sword Pavilion Pass before Cao Jun.

There were originally 5,000 defenders in Jiange Pass, and with Zhang Ren's reinforcements, the number of troops in the pass has now reached 45,000.

The news reached the ears of Gao Shun, the commander of the Cao army, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Although he had tried his best to speed up the march, the Yizhou Mountain Road was already difficult to travel, and Gao Shun finally arrived outside the Sword Pavilion Pass nearly a day late for Zhang Ren. The local soldiers in Yizhou were accustomed to marching between the mountain roads, and their speed was not hindered by the mountains and forests, but the Cao army, which was good at fighting on flat ground in the north, did not have that ability, although almost all of the 15,000 soldiers were 'elite'.

Although he captured Jiameng Pass with lightning speed, the number of defenders of Sword Pavilion Pass was three times that of Cao's army, and the Sword Pavilion Pass itself was dangerous, so it was impossible to capture Sword Pavilion Pass with his own horses.

In this regard, Sima Yi and Lu Xun, the two major thinkers in the Cao army, were also worried, and there was no good way to conquer the Sword Pavilion.

After all, this is too difficult, although the Sword Pavilion Pass is not as tall as the Tiger Prison Pass, but it is surrounded by mountains, the terrain is extremely steep, and the degree of easy defense and difficult to attack is definitely above the Tiger Prison Pass. More than 40,000 defenders are nested in the Sword Pavilion Pass, and without twice the strength, they will definitely not be able to attack.

But let alone twice as much, the strength in Gao Shun's hands is only one-third of that of the other party.

If you can't attack by force, then you can only outwit it, but it is said that Zhang Rennai, the current guard of the Sword Pavilion Pass, is a famous general in Shu, wise and brave, and the military advisor Huang Quan is calm and strategic, and it is extremely difficult to outwit the Sword Pavilion Pass.

Gao Shun was inevitably a little worried, could it be that he still regarded the difficulty of attacking Yizhou too low.

But no matter what, there is no room for retreat now, no matter how difficult it is, Yizhou must be captured!

"If you can't storm the Sword Pavilion, the 'Yin' will ...... flat"

Gao Shun remembered the deeds of Deng Ai stealing the 'yin' level and destroying Shu in one fell swoop.

Deng Ai only brought 3,000 soldiers, and then secretly passed the 'Yin' level successfully, and then made a surprise attack all the way to Chengdu, which frightened the queen Liu Chan to surrender immediately, thus cutting off the national glory of Shu Han in one fell swoop. Since there are lessons from the past, can I follow Deng Ai's example?

It's just that the 'Yin' flat trail is extremely dangerous and difficult to walk, and even Zhang Song's topographic map of Xishu is not clearly marked.

Deng Ai mentioned to Zhong Hui that he led the troops to steal the 'yin' level, and Zhong Hui praised Deng Ai on the surface that "this plan is very good", but as soon as Deng Ai left, he immediately told others that Deng Ai was a "mediocre talent" and disdained his scheme. It can be seen that the difficulty of stealing the 'yin' level is so great that even Zhong Hui thinks that it is impossible to achieve it.

If he fails, he will bury the soldier's 'sexual' life in vain, and he is very likely to die in that 'yin' flat path.

Heh, when did he become so timid, Gao Shun exhaled, and his gaze gradually became firm. He is now the general of Zhendong of the Han Dynasty, and he is a well-known general in the world! In terms of status, reputation, and ability, he will not be worse than Deng Ai at the end of the Three Kingdoms, how can he not do what he can do?

What's more, the strength of the 3,000 'elite' soldiers under his command is definitely stronger than Deng Ai's 3,000 soldiers. Deng Ai can take 3,000 soldiers to steal the 'Yin' level and destroy Shu in one fell swoop, and he can naturally do it with these 3,000 'elites' in battle!

"Everyone, I have a plan...... Gao Shun told everyone about his plan to steal the 'yin' level.

"It's not a good plan." Lu Xun was the first to express his opinion.

"It's too dangerous." Sima Yi added.

The rest of the generals, such as Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Zhang He, also shook their heads and expressed their disapproval.

"Although the 'Yin' level is dangerous, but the 40,000 troops of Yizhou are gathered in the Sword Pavilion, if I can't do it, how can I take Yizhou?" His plan was rejected, which was expected by Gao Shun, but Gao Shun insisted on his own opinion.

"Has the general ever thought about it? If someone set up an ambush of about 1,000 people in 'Yin' Ping, it would be enough to wipe out the general's entire army. Lu Xun persuaded.

If you can't capture Yizhou this time, it's a big deal to make a comeback next time. Even if he failed to win Yizhou, but he had the credit of conquering Hanzhong and Jiameng Pass, he would not be harsh on Gao Shun if he wanted to come to Cao's '', so why risk his life to steal the 'Yin' level?

With Hanzhong and Jia Mengguan, Cao Jun can fight Yizhou whenever he wants, but if his 'life' is gone, he will not be able to resurrect. In Lu Xun's view, the sneak attack on the 'yin' level is really a life of nine deaths, and there is no need.
