July. Liu Bei's army, which entered Yizhou, trekked through mountains and rivers, and finally arrived at Jiange Pass. Prepare to defend against Zhang Lu.

At this time, the Sword Pavilion Pass had been abandoned and occupied by Zhang Lujun. General Yang Ren, according to the guard, is very tight.

As the lord of Yizhou, Liu Zhang trusted Liu Bei very much, and he personally went to the front line, talked with Liu Bei, and discussed the plan to counterattack the Sword Pavilion.

However, the generals of the Yizhou army were very jealous of Liu Bei, and the general Zhang Ren led an army of 30,000 to come with Liu Zhang, called the guard, which was actually vigilant against Liu Bei.

Once Liu Bei made a move, these 30,000 troops were the main force to resist Liu Bei. The two armies fought fiercely for several days in front of the Sword Pavilion Pass.

Liu Bei, as the vanguard of the siege, fought very fiercely, and Zhang Lu's army was defeated in successive battles. The Sword Pavilion Pass, which is known as a one-man pass, is about to be broken in only three days.

At this juncture, Zhang Lujun suddenly withdrew. Maybe he was scared by Liu Bei? Or maybe Zhang Lu retreated?

The reason doesn't matter. The important thing is that the Sword Pavilion Pass became an empty city, Liu Zhang took advantage of the situation to recover the checkpoint, Liu Bei held his own duty, always camped outside the city, and did not bring the army into the city, which was to show Liu Zhang that he had no intention of seizing the city.

You must know that Jiange Pass is a dangerous pass, and it is also the west gate of Yizhou, occupying here, it has a very high strategic position, but Liu Bei gave it to Liu Zhang like this, which shows sincerity.

Zhang Lujun was repulsed, but Liu Bei did not take the initiative to leave. And Liu Zhang was embarrassed to drive people away.

The two armies stayed in the Sword Pavilion for a few days, and the military salary originally promised to Liu Bei changed from tens of thousands of stones at the beginning to 10,000 stones, thousands of stones, and now even the basic use of the army cannot be guaranteed.

Liu Beijun complained. this day. Liu Bei went to resign to Liu Zhang and wanted to return to Jingzhou. Because Zhang Lu has been defeated, he has no reason to stay here anymore, even if he wants to attack Yizhou psychologically, but he is unknown.

Once he betrays his promise, even if he obtains Yizhou, he will lose his foundation. Liu Bei thinks it's not cost-effective, it's better to go back to Jingzhou, and think about it in the long run, anyway, Zhang Lu is beating Liu Zhang every year, not this time, and next time, next time, there will always be an opportunity to crusade against Liu Zhang.

In this way, Liu Bei led the army to prepare to leave Yizhou. No one thought ... Yizhou didn't drive Zhang Song and Fa Zheng, they seemed to see through Liu Bei's thoughts, they went to find Yizhou General Zhang Ren, instigated him, and led the army to ambush Liu Bei and get rid of future troubles.

Zhang Ren had seen Liu Bei's power in the Sword Pavilion Pass, and felt that it was indeed a trouble to keep Liu Bei. Thereupon.

Before he could report to Liu Zhang, he personally led 10,000 troops and set up a heavy ambush south of Los Angeles. When Liu Bei's army passed, ten thousand arrows were fired.

Guan Yu's son Guan Ping and Liu Bei's righteous son Liu Feng, as the left and right pioneers, died on the spot! Liu Bei was also hit by two swords, but fortunately he wore protective armor, but he suffered skin injuries.

"Lord, lord..." Huang Zhong came over with shield soldiers and escorted Liu Bei back to retreat.

When they reached a safe place, the whole army was on standby in a defensive formation. The former army sent the news of the death of Guan Ping and Liu Feng.

Liu Bei was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood, but he forcibly got up, climbed on his war horse, and roared angrily: "Soldiers, Liu Zhang treacherously attacked the front of our army. Wait for me to kill! ”

"Kill..." The remaining more than 10,000 soldiers all roared angrily.

"Take L.A." Liu Bei raised his double-strand sword and took the lead in rushing towards the valley just now. Liu Beijun is already extremely combative, and he is even more fearless of death at this moment.

They followed Liu Bei, braved the arrows in the sky, rushed through the valley, and then took Luocheng, fifty miles away.

Los Angeles is the east gate of Yizhou and the way back to Jingzhou. If you want to fight Liu Zhang, this city must be occupied, and only by occupying it can you get Zhuge Liang's support.

It can be seen that Liu Bei had already planned to attack Yizhou, and made the decision to capture Los Angeles in just a few breaths.

This is also the most important step in eliminating Liu Zhang. ........... Within a few days, the news returned to Jingnan.

Guan Yu trembled with anger, hated Liu Zhang to the bone, and threatened: "The hatred of killing the son, do not share the sky, do not destroy Liu Zhang, and swear not to be a man!" "Under Zhuge Liang's dispatch.

Guan Yu was appointed as the main general, Zhang Fei was the vanguard, Chen Zhi and Zhang Mad were the followers, and 30,000 horses and infantry troops were sent to Yizhou to help in the war.

These 30,000 troops are all the elites of Jingnan. It is also Liu Bei's savings for half of his life. As soon as this army left, Jingnan was completely empty.

The regular army was less than two thousand. The general did not have one. All the local armies combined, less than 15,000, need to guard against four large counties, which is really dangerous.

Whether it is Xu Huang and Zhang Liao in Xiangyang, or Sun Quan in Jiangdong, as long as a force is sent over, Jingnan will be lost.

But with Zhuge Liang guarding here, plus Cao Cao and Sun Quan didn't know how many troops Liu Bei had, it was still relatively safe.

Xuchang. Cao Cao was worried about this matter.

"Originally, Liu Bei was about to withdraw to Jingnan, but Zhang Ren, the general of Yizhou, led the army to ambush and shot Liu Bei's righteous son Liu Feng, Guan Yu's son Guan Ping, and then... Liu Bei captured Los Angeles. Cheng Yu reported.

"Luocheng is the main road to Jingnan, Liu Bei occupies there, can be attacked, retreated can be defended." Cao Cao said.

"Yes. The minister has received a secret report that tens of thousands of troops are heading from Jingnan to Los Angeles. Cheng Yu said.

"Go and call Wenhe and Zhongda, I have something to discuss with them." Cao Cao commanded.

"No." Jia Xu and Sima Yi received a message from Cheng Yu and hurried to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Cao Cao told them the general situation and asked, "Do you think it's better for me to send troops to Jingnan?" Or is it better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight? ”

"Go to Jingnan!" Jia Xu and Sima Yi replied almost at the same time. Cao Cao hesitated: "The last time we attacked Jingnan, we had an army of 100,000, but Zhuge Liang only had 10,000 or 20,000 weak brigades, but he could inflict heavy losses on me." Although Jingnan is empty this time, but... Sima Yi walked up to Cao Cao, knelt down and said: "Please give me 20,000 troops, within a month, if you can't capture Jingnan, capture Zhuge Liang alive, and be willing to accept military law!" ”

"Zhongda, why are you so confident?" Cao Cao did not agree.

"Prime Minister, Zhuge Liang is a clever plan, but he doesn't have soldiers and horses in his hands, how can he compete with me? I only need 20,000 troops to make a contribution! Sima Yi said.

"Wenhe, what do you think?" Cao Cao asked Jia Xu. Jia Xu said: "The minister thinks... Zhongda's heart to serve the country is very strong, and he has made contributions in Wancheng, so it is perfect for him to fight. Maybe... Zhong Da can really defeat Zhuge Liang, and it is unknown. ”

"Let me think about it..." Cao Cao was a suspicious man, he knew that Sima Yi was versatile and ambitious, and if he was given military power, would it fuel Sima Yi's ambitions.

Once Sima Yi rebelled, the imperial court would be plunged into a civil strife. Originally, Cao Cao only planned to keep Sima Yi by his side and serve as a full-time military advisor.

But now... Cao Cao thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Okay, you go to Xiangyang immediately." I will send an order to Xu Huang to mobilize 50,000 Jingzhou troops to fight in Jingnan. Xu Huang is the main general, and you are the military advisor. If you can make meritorious contributions, I will play the Son of Heaven and give you an official rank. ”

"The minister obeys..." Sima Yi is such a smart person, he can see through Cao Cao's mind at once.

He said in his heart: "The prime minister doesn't trust me. "The latest chapter of the Super Imperial Beast System of the Three Kingdoms, Chapter 447, Liu Zhang's perfidy website:
