Since Wang Dun and Xiong Yizhi withdrew halfway due to various reasons, Zhou Yu completely became a lone army.

Li Ban, Li Shou and others came to join one after another, set up camp near the gold, and formed a horn with Yang Hu. Zhou visited the army and attacked the gold, and there was no progress for seven or eight days, and then Yang Hu saw that the army was united, so he took advantage of the situation to open the base and kill, and Li Ban also sent his troops to cooperate with Leci, but he was counterattacked by Zhou Wan and returned with a big defeat - Leci died in the chaos.

In this way, neither the Hanzhong army nor the Cheng army dared to act rashly anymore, so they had to go deep and fortify themselves and take strict precautions in order to confront each other for a long time. Yang Hu invited Li Ban, Li Shou, Wang Da, etc. to defend the golden base, Li Bannai said: "Although the number of Zhou Shida's soldiers is small, it is very elite, even if our army occupies a favorable location, and it is twice as large as it, if it attacks from the base, it is difficult to have a chance of winning...... For today's plan, when the Jin army in Guanzhong and Jiangzhou has retreated, inform Zhou Shida, then his lone army will go deep, and it will be difficult to last long, or he will take the initiative to retreat, but he can surrender without a fight. ”

He personally wrote a letter and sent someone to Zhou to analyze the battle situation, saying that you obviously have no chance of winning, it is better to retreat, and it is better for the two families to secure their borders.

After reading the letter, Zhou Wan's face was solemn and he was silent for a long time.

He originally planned well, although he did not pin his hopes on Wang Dun, but he also hoped that the Jin army in Guanzhong could go south and help contain some of the enemy troops, but the development of the situation was greatly beyond his prediction. Of course, Cheng Jun was weaker than expected, which also surprised Zhou Wan.

Li Ban said, "Although the number of Zhou Shida's soldiers is small, it is very elite", in fact, Zhou Yu himself knows that the old generals of the department, as well as the natives of Jingzhou, are temporarily put together, and the training time is not long, once the boat lands, there is really not much combat effectiveness at all - all he relies on is the 800 elite infantry soldiers brought out by himself. He was mentally prepared and had to go through a hard battle, but in fact, the movements of the surrounding forces put much stronger pressure on him than on the frontal enemy.

The army is really weak, if it weren't for the geographical advantage, Zhou Yu would have been able to take advantage of the soldiers and horses of his headquarters - but it is also strange, Li Shou entered Padang, why did Yang Qian defeat them so quickly? This is weaker than the weak chicken, probably only the quail......

Because later in the "Book of Jin", Li Xiong was evaluated, and he first said a lot of good things about him, and he was a benevolent lord, and then the conversation changed, but he said: "Xiong has no prestige for the country, no official rank, no different class order, and no distinction between gentlemen and villains; There is no order for the march, there is no army for the army, the victory is not compromised, the defeat is not rescued, the siege of the city and the destruction of the city is the first to capture......" The first half of the sentence is to say that Li Xiong's Chengguo government is a grass platform team, and the structure is very loose, and the second half of the sentence says that the Chengguo army is the same, the organization is very poor, and the generals do not know how to cooperate with each other, which is almost not much different from the thieves and grass coles......

Zhou Shida is the left famous general of Jiang, since Tao Kan crossed to the north, it is estimated that he is the second, no one dares to call himself the first, naturally the vision is very high, and he is not very satisfied with his team, and then look at the opposite side - it is not as good as himself. If there is no convenient location, how can such an opponent stop his own house for a moment?

Therefore, although the retreat from Guanzhong and Jiangzhou caused a certain amount of psychological pressure on Zhou Wan, he really couldn't get to the point of being discouraged and disappointed. So he directly put Li Ban's letter on the fire and burned it, and then convened the generals to discuss, he said: "Face the thieves, leaning on the danger of the mountains, with gold as the hub, surrounding seven bases and twelve battalions, interlocking, responding to each other, it seems that it is not easy to break the ......."

Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled and said, "If they gather in the stone spring and arrange it like this, I will not be able to break the ......" Fortunately, the terrain near the gold is much smoother and simpler than the stone spring-"I have sent troops to attack many times before, but I can't overcome it, but it can be seen from this——"

looked around at the generals left and right, and said word by word: "Attack Yang Hu, Li Ban and others will go to the rescue; And I attacked the thief, but Yang Hu guarded the gold and did not dare to move. In this case, you can ignore the gold first, attack Zhudi one by one, destroy its camp first, and then break its base, and invade every day until the gold hangs alone, and you can overcome it in one fell swoop! ”

So he chose the one in the front of the enemy camp and attacked repeatedly, Li Ban sent him to the rescue, but he was defeated by Zhou Wan personally leading the troops to flank, attacked for three days, and finally broke the camp. Immediately Zhou visited and spent half a month, gradually invading, and capturing six camps before and after, Li Ban did not dare to camp in front of the enemy again, and ordered the camp to be moved to the rear, and only seven bases in front of it, and the corners of the golden base were coordinated.

The Jin army fought day after day, although it was tired, but it was high because of the winning streak, on the contrary, the morale of the Cheng army was generally low. Yang Hu said that this can't be done, it's better for all the armies to go out together, force the camp directly, and crush the other party with manpower advantage, Li Ban shook his head and said: "If it is on the plain, the monarch's plan may be feasible, but the mountains are dangerous and narrow, the army is difficult to deploy, and the people are in vain, so there is a chance of victory?" Yang Huxin said that it is still on the plain, if it is really on the plain, it is estimated that this golden base will not be able to hold for three days, and it will collapse.

Li Shou suggested that he personally lead a small army to climb the mountains to find a road, and after copying out the Jin army, in order to cut off the grain route for Zhou Visit, Li Ban thought that it was in danger and refused to accept it. Although Li Shou is a generation higher than Li Ban, and since the capture of Badong, his position has finally been on par with Li Ban, but Li Xiong has always loved Li Ban and appointed this nephew as the main general, so if he doesn't nod, Li Shou will not be able to act recklessly.

Therefore, he could only stomp his feet again and again, saying that this would not work, and that would not be allowed, could it be-"Shiwen still expects Zhou Shida to retreat by himself?" ”

Li Ban smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Wang Da, Wang Da bowed his head and said: "What Zhengdong said is true, I expect that it will not be more than half a month at most, and Zhou Shida will definitely retreat!" ”

——————————

Wang Da's estimation was based on intelligence gathering and situation analysis, and he had just received the news that after Wang Dun retreated to Jiangling, he landed in a boat and sent a group of soldiers and horses straight to Xiangyang......

Not long after Zhou Wan sent his troops westward, Wang Xuan, the assassin of Jingzhou stationed in Xinye, swaggered to take over Xiangyang City, but he expected that the four gates were closed, and Tao Zhan resolutely refused to let him in. Wang Xuan wrote a book and Tao Zhan, saying that I am a genuine Jingzhou thorn history, and Xiangyang is the governor of Jingzhou, then I settled in Xiangyang, and the name is justified, how dare you close the door? Don't you want to rebel?!

Tao Zhan replied honestly and unceremoniously, before my father-in-law left, he ordered me to guard Xiangyang, and did not say that he would welcome the envoy into the city. Since the envoy is a genuine Jingzhou assassin, and he is not an appointment he just accepted, why didn't you come when my father-in-law was here? I have to wait for the father-in-law to go, so that the king will come, I can't be the master. I immediately sent someone to inform my father-in-law and ask him to come back to greet the envoy......

Wang Xianxin said that if Zhou Wan came back, then I would only have to flee in embarrassment, where would I dare to block the gate of Xiangyang City?

Wang Xuan and Wang Shijiang were famous calligraphers, painters, writers and musicians in the world, and their literary and artistic talents were almost full, so they failed to leave a few points in governing the government and using soldiers. Thinking that Tao Kan was deceived by Wang Gong and was occasionally defeated, Wang Dun bombed him to Jiangbei, and changed Wang Xuan to Jingzhou Assassin Shi and Pingnan General, and led the troops to fight against Du Zeng and other thieves. Most of Tao Kan's old generals were not convinced, but conspired with Du Zeng and Du Tao's remnants to beat Wang Xuan like a dog - in the original history, he also folded the veteran Zhu Shi into it.

Wang Dun had no choice but to order Zhou Wan to take over the Jingzhou military. Zhou and Tao were originally in-laws, and relying on Tao Zhan's intermediary contact, Tao Kan's old generals defected to Zhou's command. Immediately, Pei Gai took Xiangyang City and killed Du Zeng, and Zhou Wan took the opportunity to wipe out the other thieves in one fell swoop.

But after the situation stabilized a little, Wang Dun broke his promise and did not let Zhou visit as the assassin of Jingzhou, but wanted to let his younger brother Wang Hui run back to pick fruits. Wang Hui took the opportunity to take revenge, Yu Lu killed Tao Kan's old general, and even executed the highly regarded soldier Huangfu Fanghui (the son of Huangfu Mi), who was highly regarded in Jingzhou. Therefore, Wang Shijiang was so afraid of Zhou Shida that Zhou visited and did not leave, and he did not dare to come to Xiangyang if he was killed.

It's just that although Zhou visited and Tao Zhan garrisoned Xiangyang, Wang Xianbing was a major general, and he didn't dare to attack, so he could only stay depressed with the city. waited until Wang Dun retreated back to Jiangling, and when he heard about this, he was very angry, so he wanted to personally lead a large army to reinforce Wang Xuan and capture Xiangyang City.

Shen Chong stopped him and said, "Ming Gong can't." Tao Zhan is the son of Tao Shixing, now Tao Shixing is in the north, deeply respected by Pei Da Sima, specializing in military affairs in Guanzhong, if he goes to attack Xiangyang, he will hate Tao Shixing, and even offend Pei Da Sima. And Xiangyang has no objection in the end, how can he attack without guilt? ”

Wang Dun asked, "Is there a good way to live in Shiju?" ”

Shen Chong nodded and replied: "The reason why Tao Zhan stuck to Xiangyang and refused to open the city was to ensure the back road for Zhou Shida and supply grain and straw. The Duke of Ming does not have to go in person, he can send an army to occupy the mountain capital, cut off the contact between the two sides, and seize the army lost by Tao Kan, then Zhou Shida will not continue to have food and straw, and he will inevitably be defeated, and Tao Zhan will see that it is useless to stay, or he will abandon the city. Even if Tao Zhan doesn't leave, Zhou Shida will be defeated and return, and Ming Gong can dispose of him at will. ”

Wang Dun really sent troops to occupy the county seat of Shandu and cut off the transportation of water. When the news reached the front line, Zhou Wan was so angry that his eyes were split, his halberd pointed to the east, and he cursed: "Langya Wang's family, only seeking personal gain, ignoring state affairs, shameless!" I will die, turn into a ghost, and I will also go to ask for the lives of Wang Chuzhong and Wang Shijiang! As he spoke, a mouthful of blood spurted out and fell backwards.

The generals were shocked and hurriedly came to take care of them, and then the news came that Zhou Wan was angry to death, and the Jin soldiers and generals were all wrapped in white and filial piety. Zhou Fu took over the command of the whole army from his father, and called on the generals to say: "Today's grain and straw will be exhausted, and there is no way back. "Go into battle in person and lead your troops to get the gold directly.

Li Ban, Yang Hu and others hurriedly went to the city to refuse, and the Jin army attacked fiercely for a day, all of them were as if they had taken medicine, and they forgot to die, killing the soldiers in Hanzhong, and finally held the camp. On the evening of the same day, Li Bantan heard the confirmation that Zhou Wan was dead, so he sent a letter to Zhou Fu, persuading him to surrender and promising to give Jiuqing a high position. Zhou Fu destroyed the book and beheaded the envoys, and launched another onslaught the next day, but again he was only one step away from returning in vain.

It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Li Ban, Yang Hu and the others had just gotten up when they heard that the Jin army had already retreated.

Squad Leader Li breathed a sigh of relief, and discussed with the generals whether to pursue or not. Yang Hu and Li Xiong both said that of course they would chase after them - "If you don't take the opportunity to kill more of them, how can you resist them when you wait for the east to send them in the future?" And Shiquan is still in the hands of the Jin people, and it is the gateway of Hanzhong, if you don't take the opportunity to recover it, and wait for the Jin people to stand firm, then the east gate of Hanzhong will never be closed! ”

Wang Da said that he was not in a hurry to catch up, it would be better to investigate the situation in detail, and Li Ban also agreed with this serious argument - in fact, he was already a little frightened by the Jingzhou soldiers.

After Yang Hu came down, he thought about it and felt very angry - I originally asked you to help me protect Hanzhong, but it almost didn't play any role, and it was until the Jin people were in chaos and Zhou was angry that they waited for the day when the enemy army retreated; And when the enemy has retreated, you dare not pursue ...... After you withdrew to Shuzhong, I have to watch Shiquan fall into the hands of the Jin people, and it is difficult to recover, so how bad am I, how will I live in the future?

So he didn't listen to the general's order, and led the elite of his headquarters to open the base and chase the Jin army.

Li Ban was shocked when he heard the news, and asked left and right: "General Yang went to chase Jin Kou, is it okay?" Do you want to send someone to chase him back? Li Xiong pursed his lips and said: "Zhou Shida is dead, his son is mediocre, but relying on the strength of the mourning soldiers, he forced me to build a base, but he couldn't resist it for two days, and he did his best, so he had to leave in a hurry." I expect General Yang to chase after him, and he will be able to recover Shiquan, so why call him back? ”

Wang Da twisted his beard and groaned, but refused to say another word.

As a result, half a day later, a sentinel reported that Yang Hu had been ambushed by the Jin people near Shiquan, and almost all the troops were wiped out.

Li Ban hurriedly ordered: "Quickly send troops to meet General Yang." ”

Li Xiong waved his hand and said, "Wait!" Since Yang Hu is defeated, we don't have to open the base and let him return, but can take the opportunity to take Nanzheng in the west, and take all of Hanzhong County! ”

Li Ban flicked his sleeves and said, "Where did my uncle come from?" General Yang is loyal to the country, and His Majesty has great hopes, how can he take away his inheritance because of occasional defeat? ”

Li Xiong said: "What Shiwen said is not good, Yang Hu seized Hanzhong, and he was not a pure minister of my family, but because of the situation, he had to ask Chengdu Shen Zhong and accept protons." If you don't take this great opportunity to seize Hanzhong as the northern barrier of the country, and the situation changes in the future, I am afraid that Yang Hu will rebel, and it will be too late to regret it! ”

Li Ban shook his head again and again, but he didn't allow it-"I will not betray my faith for this, and I will not let Your Majesty be tainted by immorality!" "Ordered to open the gate and let Yang Hu in.

But unexpectedly, as soon as the remnants of Yang Hu entered the gold, they immediately made a loud noise and set fire on all sides, and then countless Jin troops appeared in the distant mountain col...... Li Ban, Li Xiong and others were caught off guard, and the Cheng army was already loosely organized, so they were immediately defeated, and the two generals and Wang Da and others were all in a hurry to get on their horses and abandon the fortress and fled. The Jin army and the remnants of Yang Hu joined forces with each other, and in one fell swoop, they captured the key pass gold.

Immediately, the Jin soldiers and generals all untied the filial piety belt wrapped around their heads, abandoned it to the ground, surrounded by flags, and two soldiers supported a member of the golden armor general, and climbed the mountain with difficulty, and arrived in front of the golden base. Yang Hu knelt down in front of the base and bowed his hand: "The criminal officials live up to the trust of the Ming Gong, and today they will offer the gold, and tomorrow they should lift the whole Hanzhong, so that they belong to the Ming Gong!" ”
