No. 319 The first news of Yan Yan
There were originally 10,000 Shu soldiers defending the city in Jinzhu Pass, but in the previous siege led by Wei Yan, they roughly lost 1,000 soldiers.
Originally, according to Wei Yan and Fa Zheng's estimates, using the strategy given by Jin Jue, it would be good to be able to recruit one or two thousand soldiers from the remaining less than nine thousand soldiers.
Shu is rich, and the promises and recruitment conditions given by Jin Jue are not too attractive in the eyes of the two of them.
Wei Yan and Fa Zheng couldn't see it, but Ju Qi knew that this little boy's strategy would definitely succeed.
Shu is rich, this is not wrong, but the real rich are the government, but the families and gentry in the counties and counties, and the large and medium-sized businessmen in the Bashu region. In the year of famine, even Shu County will inevitably have displaced people, let alone Sanba.
It can only be said that Liu Zhang was lucky, during his tenure as the assassin of Yizhou, the Bashu region was smooth almost every year, and there were few major natural disasters.
Naturally, the class contradictions were temporarily concealed.
Ju Qi knows very well that this is also in Shu County, if it is in Sanba, even if Jin Jue gives the local people a reward of ten acres of cultivated land, there will be a large number of people who take the initiative to join the army to serve him.
As a result, nature is far beyond Fazheng's imagination.
The twenty Jin Jue's personal guards who won the blank paper really recruited enough subordinates from the Jinzhu Pass defenders.
"That's good! That's good! After hearing this, Jin Jue was greatly relieved, in fact, although he was confident in his plan, he did not expect that his subordinates would be able to recruit enough people from Jinzhu Pass at one time.
On the one hand, the two armies have just clashed, and among the remaining Shu soldiers, there must be relatives who have died in battle, and hatred will prevent some from being loyal to them.
On the other hand, Jin Jue's prestige in the Bashu region was not established, and the Shu soldiers in the pass might not listen to the words of the guards and take the initiative to join the army.
Thankfully, it turned out to be good.
"Hahaha, Brother Xiaozhi, it seems that the reward of fifty acres of cultivated land offered by my son is still a bit high." Jin Jue said jokingly.
"Hehehe!" Fa Zheng looked at Jin Jue convincingly, nodded and replied, "Childe is very right. If it weren't for the son, you limited each guard to only 300 people, and all the Shu soldiers in the city would have to run away with them. ”
"Alas......! I don't know what the situation is in the Hanzhong Army, whether General Cheng Lian took the Dajian Pass? The roads in Hanzhong and Bashu are blocked, and it is too difficult to transmit information. At this time, Jin Jue suddenly sighed.
"Childe, the situation in Hanzhong County, the subordinates don't know, but the Dajian Pass is still in the hands of Liu Zhangjun, but the subordinates can be sure of this. Before, his subordinates learned from Yang Ping and Gao Ning that because a force in Hanzhong County suddenly attacked Dajian Pass, if it weren't for the defender Yan Yan desperately resisting, he would have almost lost it.
Therefore, Liu Zhang once sent Wu Ban, the younger brother of Wu Yi, the Taishou of Guanghan County, from Chengdu to lead 5,000 Shu soldiers to Dajian Pass to assist Yan Yan and garrison there. It happened about a month ago. When Fa Zheng heard the three words Dajian Pass, he remembered one thing and immediately reported it.
"Yan Yan?" When Jin Jue heard this name, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
Historically, when Liu Bei attacked Yizhou, Yan Yan was the general under Liu Zhang who was stationed in Jiangzhou County, Ba County, but he didn't expect that this famous general was now just a general of Dajian Pass.
For Shu County, for Chengdu, Dajian Pass is of course important. However, if there is no Jin Jue, sending anyone to garrison in the Great Sword Pass is enough to stop Zhang Lu, therefore, in Jin Jue's opinion, at this time, Liu Zhang's putting Yan Yan in the Great Sword Pass is indeed a bit petty.
"Since this is the case, it shows that General Cheng Lian's surprise attack on the battle of Dajian Pass ultimately failed. I just don't know what the casualties of our army were in this battle? Jin Jue muttered to himself.
……
Let's not mention the news of Jin Jue in the north, south and east of Jinzhu Pass.
Let's go back to the situation in Hanzhong County.
As Jin Jue expected when he led the army to leave.
The original guard of Yangping Pass had become a lone army when he finally got the news that Xinzheng County had been lost and that the lord Zhang Lu was missing.
Outside the pass, the '70,000 army' led by Fu Gan and Li Feng blocked the way for the defenders in the pass to get out. The Jin Jue army outside the pass could not enter the pass, and the defenders inside the pass were afraid of the huge strength of the Jin Jue army and did not dare to leave the pass at all.
Behind Yangping Pass, Jin Jue's army took Chuyang County, completely blocking the way for the defenders of Yangping Pass to send troops to the east to rescue Nanzheng County.
At this time, there were 30,000 troops in Yangping Pass, enough to eat food for three years, but they were forced by Jin Jue's army to be unable to advance or retreat.
The guard general and Yang Song, the supervisor sent by Zhang Lu later, discussed twice in succession, but the two were never able to reach an agreement.
The meaning of the guard is to leave 10,000 Hanzhong soldiers, and Yang Song is responsible for continuing to stay at Yangping Pass and block the Jin Jue army outside the pass. And he himself led 20,000 people out of the pass immediately, and there was no need to storm Chuyang County, but only to divide his troops to block the Jin Jue army that blocked the way out of Chuyang County, and the rest of the troops went straight to Nanzheng County.
However, Yang Song never agreed.
On the one hand, Yang Song was very self-aware, and he thought that if there were only 10,000 people left in Yangping Pass, he would not be able to hold the pass.
On the other hand, the retreat route was cut off, the news was blocked, and now, they don't know the situation of the entire Hanzhong Army counties, if the guards rashly lead 20,000 people out of the customs to fight, and the other counties and counties are all taken by the Jin Jue army, then these 20,000 people will become wandering ghosts, and they will not get food supplies, even if they reach Nanzheng County, it will be difficult to break through the county seat of Nancheng County.
But on the third day after the guard and Yang Song got the news, Yang Song suddenly changed his mind and agreed to the guard general's suggestion.
As a result, the defenders of Yangping Pass were divided into two groups.
What the unknown general didn't expect was that as soon as he led 20,000 soldiers and horses out of the pass, Yang Song ordered his subordinates to open the gate of Yangping Pass and let Jin Jue's army outside the pass enter the pass.
After Li Feng and Fu Gan got Jin Jue's handwriting, they confirmed that the other party did not cheat, and immediately led the army into the customs.
As mentioned above, the Jin Jue army outside the gate ostensibly has 70,000 people, but in fact, only 10,000 people can really participate in the battle.
After entering the customs and learning the specific situation, Fu Gan was also a master of art and bold, and he did not care about Yang Song and the remaining Hanzhong soldiers in Yangping Pass to learn about Jin Jue's reality and reality, and he immediately ordered Li Feng to lead all his troops out of the pass immediately, and followed the 20,000 Yangping Pass defenders who left the pass.
Once they arrived in Chuyang County, they immediately united with the defenders of Chuyang County and attacked the other side.
