To be honest, for Datang, a force that has just risen for about ten years, those people in Jiangzuo actually despise it from their hearts. After all, there is no background, especially those officials in the imperial court, and even Li Xin himself, who have no family history and prestige. As a result, the Tang Dynasty trampled Yan Guo like this, and many of them still felt that Li Xin would not dare to make a move against Jiang Zuo. Otherwise, why would he have withdrawn directly because of Huan Wen's intimidation a year ago!

It was only at this time that these people reacted, it turned out that Datang was not afraid of himself at all, and Li Xin did not put Jiang Zuo in his eyes at all.

Especially Huan Wen, who had always regarded Li Xin as an unpopular grass king, after getting the news that the Tang Army was moving south, he was so angry that he overturned the table in front of him, because he felt that Li Xin was despising himself.

"The erector is very deceitful! It's really no one in Jiangzuo! Someone came, and immediately issued an order, my father should personally lead an army of 100,000 to fight ~ Defeat Li Xin! Also, order the soldiers and horses in Xuchang, Suiyang, Jingzhou and other places to attack the Tang army immediately, and they must be driven back to Guanzhong! In a fit of rage, Huan Wen couldn't care about the reality anymore, and bluntly said that he would attack Datang like he had attacked Qianqin.

"Da Sima is angry, and please take a break from the wrath of thunder!" The surrounding strategists hurriedly persuaded them.

"Da Sima Mingjian, the only way to do this is to keep Yizhou first. As long as the land of Yizhou is in our hands, it will not be difficult for us to find a way to recover Liangzhou at that time! Xi Chao proposed.

"Yes, now that the war in Yizhou is going well, the traitor Sima Xun can't support it for long. As long as Sima Xun and other rebels are resolved, the army can take advantage of the situation to move north and resist the Tang army's southward advance. The Tang army has not yet taken Hanzhong, and it is still unknown whether they can go south smoothly! Wang Xun also echoed on the side.

After hearing these words, the anger in Huan Wen's heart finally calmed down a bit. What he was angry about was not that Liangzhou and other places were threatened by the Tang Army, but because he felt despised by Li Xin and had a feeling of being slapped in the face.

After all, in the past, he always had a sense of superiority over Li Xin in front of everyone. After all, whether it is his background or power, he is much higher than Li Xin, who was born at the grassroots.

However, now he suddenly found that it was such a person who was looked down on by himself, and before he knew it, he was already as tall as himself. Moreover, looking at himself head-on, he was not afraid to say anything, and dared to slap himself hard.

How could Huan Wen, who was proud in his heart, endure it, if Li Xin was from the same background as him, he might still admire it. Now, there is only one feeling left in my mind to be offended.

"It's Ben Gong's gaffe! First, immediately send an envoy to Chang'an to ask Li Xin about the invasion of his troops! Second, order Huan Huo, Huan Chong, Yuan Zhen and other soldiers and horses to immediately go all out on alert. At the same time, troops were sent to force the Tang army, thus forcing the Tang army to withdraw from Hanzhong as soon as possible! Third, mobilize 50,000 troops to gather in Xiangyang County, and Bengong will arrive later! After calming down a little, Huan Wen said in a deep voice.

With Huan Wen's order issued, Jiang Zuo quickly mobilized and prepared to vigorously support Liang Yi's land, so as not to fall into the hands of the Tang Dynasty.

However, due to the fact that the land of Guanzhong is very close to Hanzhong, especially when Li Xin has been preparing for a long time, Zhou Tong's actions are very smooth.

The people in Hanzhong County and other places have a very good impression of Datang, mainly because over the years, the relationship between Sima Xun and Datang is okay, so the exchanges between Hanzhong and Guanzhong are very frequent. Under such circumstances, the people of Hanzhong have a better understanding of the situation in Guanzhong.

Therefore, when the Tang Dynasty came over, the people did not have much disgust with the Tang Army, and even some people were quite welcome. And the rest of those who are interested in the Jin family are mainly some local gentry and big families, but these people were killed by Sima Xun before.

Therefore, today's Hanzhong actually has little strength to resist the Tang army's southward movement. In particular, Sima Xun thought that Li Xin was fully supporting him, so he moved his troops south, leaving only a small number of soldiers and horses to stick to the base camp of Hanzhong County. In this way, it provided favorable conditions for the Tang army to take Liangzhou.

Since Zhou Tong sent troops in early April, he went all the way south, and the three-way army basically had no obstacles, and directly killed the city of Nanzheng County to converge. In the end, when the entire Hanzhong Basin was occupied and taken, Jingzhou Duhuhuan, who had set out from Jingzhou to attack Nanzheng, had just arrived in Xicheng County of Weixi County.

This Xicheng County, is the vicinity of Ankang City in later generations, if you want to enter from Jingzhou to Hanzhong Nanzheng, from Jingzhou along the water that is, the Han River westward, this is the most suitable road. Originally, according to the original history, the soldiers and horses along the way were successfully killed under the city of Nanzheng, but that was because the former Qin at that time was flawless because of civil strife, so there was no army.

After the army led by Huan Zhen arrived in Xicheng County, it was about to continue to advance, but at this moment, the 20,000 army led by Deng Qiang had already arrived at Raofeng Pass south of Xingdao County through Meridian Road.

And if you go straight down from here to the southeast, it is only about two hundred miles away from Xicheng County. There is only an Ankang County between the two, and the most important thing is that if Huan Zhen wants to rush to Hanzhong County, he must pass near Raofeng Pass.

But with Deng Qiang and his 20,000 troops there, it was almost impossible.

With no choice, Huan Zhen had to lead the army to temporarily garrison in Xicheng County, ready to wait for follow-up orders. However, the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

At the beginning of May, Sima Xun, who was fighting with the Jin army outside Chengdu, was furious when he heard the news that the Tang army had attacked his base camp. Originally, the people around him persuaded him to lead the army back to Hanzhong immediately, so as to stick to his lair.

But where can Sima Xun, who saw Chengdu in front of him, swallow this breath, after all, compared to Nan Zheng, Chengdu is the real land of kings. As long as he takes this place, it means that he can quickly grasp the country of abundance.

At that time, he will be able to occupy this land and dominate like the original Shu Kingdom and the recent Cheng Han.

It's a pity that things didn't go as planned, and after Jiangxia Xiangxuan led the army to arrive, his side was defeated and retreated, and it was May as soon as it entered. Under the coordinated attack of Zhou Chu and Xuan Xu, the army completely collapsed, and the soldiers scattered and fled. Even he and a group of officials and subordinates were arrested.

After that, Sima Xun and the others were sent to Jiankang and handed over to Huan Wen.
