PS: Thanks for the tip from the big monster of the rat! At this time, there was no Yangpingguan in history, and this individual also knew about it.

Liu Xie slowly began his hellish life in Chang'an, although it may be an exaggeration, but for Liu Xie, it was really so. In fact, he also knew that Li Dao and Guo Yan would definitely not be good to themselves, and they would definitely not be as good as Wang Yun. But what he didn't expect was that they were not as good as the previous Dong thieves to themselves. Liu Xie really wants to cry without tears, being the emperor should be the first one in ancient times. After his death, what face do he have to meet the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, he is an unscrupulous descendant.

And after Li Dao and Guo Yan entered Chang'an City, they killed Wang Yunshi, Sun Rui and others, and Lu Bu had already withdrawn from Chang'an, as for Li Su, they also looked for him, but Li Su was nowhere to be found, and no one knew where he went. So since there is no one to be seen, they will give up and not look for it.

After that, several people forced Liu Xie to seal their high official positions, and the most reluctantly named Li Dao as the general of the chariot cavalry, the opening of the mansion, the commander of the school, the false festival, and the marquis of Chiyang. Guo Yan was the rear general and the Marquis of Meiyang. Fan Chou is the right general and the marquis of ten thousand years. As for Zhang Ji, he was named General of Zhendong and Marquis of Pingyang. However, Li Ji and the others let him go out to garrison Hongnong, so Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew had no choice but to leave Chang'an with their troops-

Li Dao and Guo Yan began the days of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", and as early as when they were preparing to attack Chang'an, Ma Chao in Longxian County had already sent troops to Hanzhong to attack Zhang Lu.

Because the opportunity has come, just two days have passed since Ma Chao returned to Longxian with the 50,000 soldiers collected from Niu Fu. Yizhou reported that Qianwei Taishou Ren Qi and the school captain Jia Long and Zhao Qian conspired to rebel against Liu Yan.

Ma Chaozhi said, at this time, Liu Yan still can't take too much care of himself, so at this time, the soldiers are very fast, and they must seize the opportunity to enter the army. So he hurriedly gathered everyone to discuss the entry of troops into Hanzhong.

"Everyone, there is news from Yizhou, at this time, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan and Liu Junlang are busy dealing with the rebellion in Yizhou, so this is a good time for our army to send troops!"

When everyone heard this, they were all gearing up. are ready to follow their lords to attack Hanzhong together. But everyone knows the way, it can't be that everyone goes, so everyone is you look at me, I look at you, and they all look at who is likely to be taken by their lord to attack Hanzhong.

Ma Chao looked at everyone's appearance like this. He should have been the last to announce who to go and who not to go, but everyone was so anxious when he saw it. Then there's nothing wrong with talking about it first. And he laughed.

"Yide, Zilong, Bozhan, Zifang, Guan Hai and Wei Ping, the six of you will go with me this time!"

"No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!"

The six of them hurriedly stood up and agreed. was named by his father-in-law, which shows that his father-in-law attaches great importance to himself. So they are also happy in their hearts, after all, it is also an honor to be valued by the lord.

"Don't be discouraged. Staying in Longxian County, you still need to contribute! Uncle and nephew, Longxian will be handed over to you! ”

"No! I will live up to the trust of the Lord! ”

Chen Zhi often says this, it can be seen that he is the one who is often left behind, but Chen Zhi is really good, hard work.

Ma Chao nodded with satisfaction, "Mr. Wenhe is also with Chao and goes out with the army!" ”

"No!"

And all this is in Jia Xu's expectations, especially after the last burning of Dangqiang, his lord has to take himself with him wherever he goes, for fear of suffering, Jia Xu knows this very well in his heart.

"That's right, Xuan Gao!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"After today, you go to Longxi, go to Ling Ming, and help train the soldiers, this is the task assigned to you, there must be no mistake!"

"No! The subordinates are determined to fulfill the order of the lord! ”

Zang Ba thought that his lord wanted to let him go to Hanzhong, but it turned out that he was going to Longxi. But if there is a task, he can't oppose it, and it's better to have something to do than nothing, isn't it?

Ma Chao only remembered at this time that his two younger brothers were going on a long trip, so at this time he had already started training people and horses to escort them away. However, it was still too tiring to rely on Pang De to train soldiers alone, so he found a helper for Pang De, with his Pang De Ling's name and his Zang Ba Zang Xuangao, with the ability of both of them, to train three hundred soldiers, there was no problem at all.

"Okay, let me talk about the deployment of this march, and you will also refer to it in detail. The so-called one person is short of wisdom, 'everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high'! Don't worry, just speak your mind! ”

"Everything obeys the orders of the Lord!" Everyone said in unison.

Ma Chao nodded, "Okay, then everyone come here!" ”

So everyone came forward and gathered around Ma Chao. After Ma Chao stood up, he pointed to the big map hanging next to him and said, "This time, we will send troops from Fu County, Wudu County, Liangzhou!" ”

Everyone looked at it and nodded, not bad. Because Wudu County is in the southernmost part of Liangzhou, and it is also adjacent to Hanzhong County, and Fu County is the closest county-level residence to Hanzhong. There are a total of seven cities in Wudu County, and the other six cities are Wudu Dao, Shanglu, Gudao, Hechi, Qiang Dao, and this frustration county.

His lord said that if he sent troops from there, then the army would have to go to Fu County first, and then in the army.

After glancing at everyone, Ma Chao continued: "There are two main roads for soldiers to enter Hanzhong, one of which everyone knows about the road, that is, to take the Bao Slope Road (Bao Slope Road is the Slope Valley Road, both of which are one place. So if you talk about the slope road in the future, everyone knows that this is the slope valley road), after the praise, the most Lu directly arrived at Nanzheng. But as you know, this road was blocked by Zhang Lu before, and although it is now unblocked, I will not let the army march from this road! ”

Everyone nodded, and they all understood what their lord meant. The plank road is a plank road, not a flat land, so it is not only dangerous, but also the army walks on the plank road. It's really a delay. Also, if you want to take the Bao Slope Road, you have to go far away, the Bao Slope Road Bao Slope Road, which is a plank road connecting the Bao Valley and the Slope Valley, and the Bao Valley is the southernmost one, in Hanzhong. But the valley is the northernmost one, but it's in Sili. Therefore, if you want to take the slope, you must first go to the slope valley, and then you can do it.

So if that's the case, let's go from Longxian to Xiegu first. How long has it been since I walked down the slope. Now Ma Chao finally caught such an opportunity that Liu Yan couldn't fully take care of him, if he passed from the Bao Slope Road, then "the daylily will be cold" by then. Another point, that is, if you take the ramp. It's a big loss. If Zhang Lu learned the news, he might have blocked the ramp again. And what should you do when the time comes. Whether to repair the plank road or go back, isn't this all a problem?

Don't say that you can't be discovered, if you walk dozens of people and hundreds of people, maybe you won't be discovered. Even a few thousand people may be lucky not to be discovered. But if you really want to go tens of thousands of people. It would be strange if it wasn't discovered. is such an important ramp, can Zhang Lu not send someone to stare at it like a stupid ×.

Ma Chao smiled, "Although this road is not passable, we can take the second way into Hanzhong." Of course. It's not easy! ”

Saying that, Ma Chao directly pointed his finger at Yangping Pass, and when everyone saw it, some people frowned. What kind of place is Yangping Pass, even if I haven't been there, but many of them know a little bit about it, it is the most important pass in the west of Hanzhong, and there is no one. The pass is indeed easier to defend and difficult to attack than the city, especially Yangping Pass.

"Yes, everyone also knows the road, this second road is that we set off from Fu County with troops, march southeast, arrive at Yangping Pass in Hanzhong, capture Yangping Pass, and then march eastward into Weiyang, and wait until we take Weiyang, our army can approach Nanzheng along the Han River! And if our army takes Yangping Pass and Chuyang, it is equivalent to taking one-third of Hanzhong County, and if we take Nanzheng, the seat of Hanzhong, it will be equivalent to taking half of Hanzhong! ”

When everyone heard this, it can indeed be said that although there are nine cities under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong County, but Yangping Pass and Nanzheng, the governing office, plus a very important Chuyang, if they are all taken by themselves, it can indeed be said that they have taken half of Hanzhong, and all the way to these three places, it can be said that the rest of Zhang Lu should not have much resistance.

"I don't know what you think!"

Everyone quickly agreed, because there was no other route to the army, so could it be like this? Yangpingguan - Chuyang - Nanzheng, this is it.

"If our army wants to capture Nanzheng City, it must fight at least three battles!"

Hearing what his lord said, everyone nodded. Zhang Lu is not a fool, he must send heavy troops to defend Yangping Pass, and after Yangping Pass is broken, in Weiyang, his own side will also be blocked, as for the combat power of the other party in Weiyang, it may not be. But after breaking Nanzheng in Chuyang, Zhang Lu and they are estimated to have to fight to the death.

Seeing that everyone had nothing else to see, Ma Chao immediately ordered troops and set off towards Fu County. To say that everyone has been preparing for a long time, the Lord of Zhilu Dao is going to send troops to Hanzhong, so this is always ready. So when Ma Chao ordered to march to Fu County, soon, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun and they all had their troops in order to set off with Ma Chao-

Ma Chao marched to Fuxian with an army of 70,000, and now his strength has increased again. Now the strength of the Liangzhou army is more than 120,000, not counting the county soldiers of other counties in Liangzhou, who defend the city.

How did this more than 120,000 come about, there were more than 60,000 people in Ma Chao's Liangzhou army before, and he himself had 5,000 private soldiers left by Ma Teng, which is not counted. When he set out to burn Dangqiang, he lost about 10,000 and 50,000 horses.

After that, Ma Chao went to Qingzhou and took away more than 51,000 people from Guanhai Cottage. took 20,000 to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and then the remaining 31,000 horses were brought back to Liangzhou by Guan Hai and Zang Ba. After fighting for so many days under Bishui Pass, he lost about 10,000 after the worst, and he brought 10,000 people back to Longxian, so there were more than 40,000 people in Guanhai Cottage.

The last part was the 50,000 horses that had been collected from Niu Fu before, but after Chen Zhi's reorganization, more than 30,000 people defected to Ma Chao's Liangzhou army, and the others sent them home.

Therefore, Ma Chao's Liangzhou army now has 50,000 plus 40,000 plus 30,000, a total of 120,000 men and horses, and the opportunity is only more than this, but it will never be less than this, in fact, it should be nearly 130,000 horses.

And 20,000 of them let the eighteenth son take it to Jincheng to defend against the Qiang people, Ma Chao was not too relieved, so he asked the eighteenth son to take away the 30,000 Liangzhou army. He thinks that the eighteen sons plus these horses plus the people and horses of Jincheng should be able to resist the Qiang people.

So there are more than 90,000 horses in Longxian, and Ma Chao directly took away 70,000 of them, and the remaining 20,000 people stayed in Longxian.

In this way, Ma Chao, Zhang Fei and others came to Fu County with an army of 70,000. (To be continued......)
