Chapter 799: Interlocking

Jiameng Pass, Shuzhong Portal, the terrain is steep according to the mountains, the city wall is six zhang high, the whole body of the mountain stone is built extremely solid, stretching also has more than three miles long, if it is a single talk about the majestic degree of the city, here is slightly inferior to the Tiger Prison, Hangu, Yangping, but the terrain in front of the pass is narrow and is the momentum of the feint, so the difficulty of attacking the fortification, I am afraid that it will be above the previous number. Although Liu Zhang, the assassin of Yizhou, is weak, greedy for peace and well-being, and is not well prepared, but with this in hand, Zhang Lu, who is in Hanzhong, is helpless, otherwise how could he join forces with Han Sui to touch Liu Yi's Sizhou land?

It is precisely because of this pass's unique immortal enemy and key position, since Liu Yan entered Shu has been by the henchmen to sit in charge, in Hanzhong Zhang Lu since the town of the town is more strengthened in the army, originally stationed on the pass of 15,000 elite Shu army, guarded by General Lei Tong here, a month ago Zhang Ren Yan Yan was defeated in the hands of Cao Mengde in the battle of Brazil, after several tosses and turns, he went to Jiameng Pass under the response of Lei Tong, although it was nearly 20,000 more soldiers at once, but Yizhou has always been the country of abundance, and the grain is extremely abundant, This is especially true in this critical place, at this time, the supply of more than 30,000 Shu troops with the grain in Jiameng Pass can still support more than a year, which can be described as comprehensive.

After arriving here, the defeated army led by Zhang Ren and Yan Yan was a little at ease, although the Jiameng Pass was not as strong as the outside, but it could also be called easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the soldiers were complete and there were generals in charge, compared with the previous strength has increased unabated. But the change of the situation in Shuzhong has affected the mood of everyone in the army, the soldiers who stick to the city pass are worried about their families, and the morale of the defeated Shu army is also a little low, fortunately, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are both famous generals in Shu, and the army also has a very high prestige and deterrence to temporarily ensure that the morale of the army is not lost!

The two of them can still maintain a calm state in front of ordinary soldiers, but they are still worried about each other alone, both Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are well aware of the ability of the lord Liu Zhang, and they have lost their own guard opponent and the elite of Yanzhou led by Cao Mengde, and the chaos of Yizhou is the tiger of the thieves, the situation is self-evident! Although Liu Jiyu is weak but not useless, he is still courteous to the second general in this army, and this battle of Brazil can maintain trust under Xun Yu's counter-strategy, which makes the second general more grateful in his heart, but the Qin family in Shu has always been a thief, and this time he turned against each other when the war was tight, causing Brazil to hate!

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are both loyal and upright people, and their loyalty to Liu Zhang is undoubted, and they have also made up their minds to die for him, but at this time, most of the 30,000 soldiers with unstable military morale in their hands are still newly defeated, and if they go to support desperately, it will definitely be a moth to the fire! Although he was worried about the danger of the main public security, Zhang Ren was still able to make a judgment very calmly, as long as he could hold the gate of Shuzhong, Cao Cao would take Yizhou and not treat Liu Zhang for the time being, and their existence was his greatest guarantee.

Although Zhang Ren is ten years older, Yan Yan has always admired his ability to lead the army and the vision of the enemy's situation, and this time Zhang Ren was able to entangle with the inferior troops under the enemy army in the battle of Brazil, and fully showed his military talent without letting it go, and even the opponent Cao Cao also called it no less than Wen Ze's great general's talent! He is very convinced by this judgment in front of him, and when the battle is brought to this point, both of them know that the situation in Shuzhong is difficult to overturn, and what they can do is to ensure the safety of the lord Liu Zhang's family, and at the same time, they also hold the last hope that someone can support Shuzhong, and this person is not other Liu Yi, the king of Yan who is in the land of six states!

In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Liu Langsheng's three brothers raised troops in Pingqiu to fight for the thief Anbang, Liu Yan, who was the pastor of Youzhou at the time, greatly appreciated it, and always regarded it as a nephew, Liu Yi also respected it, and then Liu Yan was seriously ill and difficult to govern, and a place in Shuzhong also became intricate, and there were not a few people who coveted the position of assassination history, and the Qin family was the biggest opposition force under the support of Zhang Lu! The old lord was aware of everything, and resolutely asked Liu Zhang to go to Beiping to ask Liu Yi for help at that time, who was still a hussar general, and Liu Yi also showed strong support for the Liu family father and son on this matter.

Therefore, for Liu Yi, the king of Yan, Liu Zhang, who has a clan relative, has always been grateful, and his attitude of not coercing the kindness of the disciples also makes the people in Shu admire, but Liu Jiyu still lacks decision in the end, and did not deal too much blow to it under the welcome of the Qin family and other families to change their attitudes, so that raising tigers is a disaster to have today's defeat! During the war in Yizhou, King Yan was still extremely concerned about being thousands of miles away, and there were many letters to teach Liu Zhang how to hold on to help, and promised that as long as Shuzhong could hold on for more than a year, he would send troops to help, which was extremely obvious!

At this time, in the eyes of Zhang Ren Yan Yan and the two generals, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is the biggest obstacle, if this place is in the hands of Liu Yi, the virtue of the king of Yan to treat the lord is afraid that the outcome of this battle will be different, although the Yanzhou army is strong, but the elite of the Yan army is also known to the world, Liu Yi has the name of being invincible in a hundred battles, and his martial arts can also win the respect of the two generals who are warriors, limited to the terrain Liu Yi can not send troops to support Shuzhong, but they can only hold on to Jiameng Pass to wait for the change of the world, as long as the life of the lord is not lost, Once King Yan makes a move on Cao Thief, he will still have something to do!

It is precisely because of this mentality that when they heard that Zhang Niujiao, the deputy commander of the Yellow Shirt Army, the envoy of the King of Yan, came to the two of them were extremely happy, in fact, they also learned the news that Zhang Hu arrived in Hanzhong, and the purpose of Zhang Zicai's coming here is extremely obvious in the current situation, King Yan must have the intention of taking Hanzhong, if it can really be so Shuzhong, it will be strengthened, but the two generals are happy at the same time, there is also a hidden worry, although Liu Yi is famous, but he is also a hero, at this time Liu Zhang's army is about to be defeated in his hands has no strength at all, What kind of attitude will King Yan have towards his lord? Will he continue to support him as always, or will he just want to contain his rival Cao Cao?

Although there are quite a few gains and losses, but Zhang Ren Yan Yan and the second general still expressed a very high courtesy and respect for the arrival of Zhang Niujiao, and his words said that the King of Yan was also heartbroken about the matter in Shuzhong, and Liu Tingshi was the brother of the Yan Dynasty, how could he not read it? However, there was a rebellion in Sizhou before, and it was impossible to send troops to contain it for a while, resulting in today's situation is really uneasy, the two generals are loyal people who admire in their hearts, but they hope to be able to guard Xiongguan and wait for the situation in Hanzhong to be slightly determined to use troops against Cao Cao, and as long as Liu Zhang is still in Shuzhong, King Yan will definitely take him as the lord of Sichuan, and as long as Zhang Yaner will strictly guard Xiongguan and King Yan will be responsible for it, even if the army is defeated Liu Zhang can save his life.

Although the terrain of Jiameng Pass is dangerous, but the soldiers of Shu Zhong have experienced a bloody battle and lost a lot of military morale, so they specially ordered Zhang Ren's younger brother, Yan Army Chang'an Battalion Commander General Zhang Xiu led the army to help, in order to show the heart of the King of Yan, Zhang Commander will not only support the military resources and grass, but also will only be stationed outside the pass, and when the situation arrives, it will show the world to understand the truth of Liu Zhang.

When Liu Yi supported Xuzhou in the Beihai Sea and led the army back, Yuan Shao moved to remove it in his own territory to remove the heart of the troubles, purely in terms of strength Liu Yi is at an absolute disadvantage, and the location is also on the enemy's side, it can be said that the situation is critical, and the reason why he was able to fight out of the encirclement is that in addition to Yuan Benchu's heart is not firm enough, Montenegro Zhang Yan's army containment played a key role, and the person who went to the mountains to persuade Zhang Yan was the Yellow Turban general Zhang Niujiao, this person has extraordinary martial arts and courage, but he does not lose his tongue. Plus Liu Yi and Guo Jia mentioned points to have this effect.

Now ten years have passed, Zhang Niujiao as the deputy general of the Yellow Shirt Army is more calm and capable, entrusted by Zhang Junshi, he has shown enough respect for Zhang Ren Yan Yan and the second general, and also put all the thoughts of King Yan and the military advisor, it can be said that Jia Meng is very compatible with the three generals for a while, Zhang Niujiao's words and deeds also made the two generals feel good, and also dispelled their concerns to a large extent.

Gun King Tong Yuan only accepted three disciples in his life, the three of them are not only strong in martial arts but also have a high reputation among the generals in the late Han Dynasty, these three people are Zhang Ren in Shuzhong, Zhang Xiu in the Tiger Prison and now Zhao Yun, the general of Jizhou Assassin History! Although the three of them are difficult to see each other everywhere, the kindness of the master is a long memory, Zhang Ren and the little junior brother Zhao Yunsu have never met, but Zilong is the highest among the three, regardless of martial arts status, the master is also very appreciative of his martial arts and Liu Yi, the king of Yan! Jiyuan has also been friends for a long time in his heart, and he is more familiar with Zhang Xiu, who is about to lead the army in Zhang Niujiao's mouth, and the two have been together for a while under the guidance of the master, and the feelings between the brothers are very deep, and Zhang Hu, the king of Yan, is extremely satisfied with Zhang Ren in his heart.

All this has been arranged long before Zhang Hu came to Hanzhong, the reason why Zhang Niujiao came instead of coming in person is that he still has important things to do at this time, and through this period of time, he has to find ways to be more determined Zhang Lu's intention to serve the king of Yan, and the province has the heart to repeat! Come to Hanzhong to persuade Zhang Lu, and then let Zhang Niujiao rush to Jiameng Pass, and transfer Zhang Xiu's Chang'an camp to come as soon as possible, Zhang Hu's plan can be said to be interlocking and extremely comprehensive, it can be seen that Zicai is indeed a good strategy in the chest and abdomen, and the performance of Zhang Ren Yan Yan and the second general is also in his expectation, Liu Zhang This person is a great bargaining chip for Liu Yi to deal with Cao Cao in Shuzhong in the future, and Liu Jiyu's character will let him continue to sit in the land of Sichuan will not damage the great cause of King Yan, and Cao Cao will never dare to harm it at this time, Otherwise, it will definitely make the people chaotic, and above the knowledge here, Zhang Hu, Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others are better than Zhang Ren Yan Yan and the two generals!
