The Guangyuan Western Army was temporarily in Dazhai, and the Western Army was busy treating the wounded, lightly missing the missing, rectifying the men and horses, and the main force of the Western Army retreating from the Jinniu Road to Shu had suffered heavy losses, which was enough to make Zhang Xianzhong unable to slow down within two years.

In this Hanzhong battle, the Western Army gathered 130,000 elites out of Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong's five guards and pro-army 50,000 people, and 80,000 elite troops under the four kings, but now less than 20,000 people have safely returned to Guangyuan, Zhang Nengqi, who fled south back to Qingshi Pass, and 5,000 defenders in Yangxian County, I am afraid that they are also more auspicious.

That is to say, after half a year of the Hanzhong War, the 130,000 elite soldiers gathered by the Western Army, costing countless money and grain in Shuzhong, originally wanted to occupy Hanzhong, and then enter the Guanzhong to compete with the Qing court for the world, but they lost eighty percent of the land at once, and also lost the land of Hanzhong, which can be described as a heavy defeat.

The Western Army lost nearly 100,000 horses in Hanzhong, of course, so many people, in addition to those who were killed, captured and surrendered, there must have been people who fled into the mountains and were separated from the main force, but these routs, the Western Army was very close to collect, because the grain in Hanzhong had already been robbed, and the road to Shu was basically blocked, and the Western Army that remained in Hanzhong was routed, and if they wanted to live, they had to surrender to the Qing soldiers in the end.

As a result, the Western Army actually lost 100,000 people, but Hauge was able to recover some of its strength with the help of surrendering troops and taking prisoners.

If you add the 50,000 Qing soldiers brought into Hanzhong by Wu Sangui and Aobai, as well as a large amount of grain and grass, the western army will not only be greatly damaged because of this defeat, but the situation in Sichuan and Shu will also deteriorate dramatically.

After the Western Army withdrew into Guangyuan, rested on the spot, the defeat made the morale of the army drop to the bottom, and the soldiers generally had no fighting spirit, especially the Shu soldiers, who suffered this catastrophe, and wanted to return to Chengdu, but the ancient saying "has to look at Shu", and now the Western Army has lost Hanzhong, and Shu is in danger.

Right now, in the Western Army, Zhang Dingguo is unconscious, Zhang Wenxiu is also injured, and the news of King Dingbei is unknown, and all the burden falls on Zhang Kewang.

Guangyuan City, the temporary presence of Emperor Zhang Xianzhong of Daxi, Zhang Kewang hurriedly came over to discuss the strategy of defending Shudi.

He was led to a lobby, Zhang Xianzhong had not arrived, but Wang Zhaoling, the left minister, and several ministers had already sat on both sides, and they saw Zhang Kewang come in and saluted one after another.

Zhang Kewang gave up his hands with everyone, but he treated Wang Zhaoling coldly, he snorted coldly, "Misleading the country and ministers, harming my 100,000 soldiers, and sitting in the hall with a face?" ”

The Western Army of Hanzhong was originally defended by danger, the enemy was outside Hanzhong, with 130,000 horses, holding the danger, the Qing army would definitely not be able to enter, the Western Army repelled the Qing soldiers, and occupied Hanzhong, which was a matter of nine out of ten, but Wang Zhaoling admonished Zhang Xianzhong, and lured the enemy into the depths, changed the previous strategy of the Western Army, and released the Qing soldiers into Hanzhong, so that Zhang Xianzhong took risks, and now the Western Army was defeated, Zhang Kewang naturally put the account on Wang Zhaoling's body.

Wang Zhaoling's face was blue for a while and white for a while, and he glared at Zhang Kewang angrily and said: "King Pingdong, the battle of Hanzhong is a decision made by Long Live Pingdong, is King Pingdong questioning Long Live again?" Benxiang is dedicated to Onishi, for the sake of long live, saying that Benxiang harmed 100,000 soldiers, it is better to say that the kings are not in a good fight, and they have failed the expectations of Benxiang and Banzai. ”

Hanzhong was defeated, lost his division and lost his land, such a big pot, Wang Zhaoling would not be able to carry it, he arched his hand upward, pulled up the banner of Zhang Xianzhong, and immediately made Zhang Kewang speechless, so he could only wave his sleeves, snort coldly, and sit down in his place.

The hall suddenly fell silent for a while, and after a while, Zhang Xianzhong arrived, and everyone saluted together to break the dullness.

"Hanzhong is the barrier of Shu, and now that I am defeated in Hanzhong, Shuzhong will inevitably be shaken, and the Qing court will also be eyeing it." After the ceremony, Zhang Xianzhong asked everyone to sit down, and then went straight to the topic, "Who has a strategy to help me fight inside and outside." ”

After Daxi entered Shu, under the auspices of Wang Zhaoling, the left minister, he continued to implement the strategy of attacking the gentry, and killed the big families and scholars in Shu.

As the old saying goes, "The gentry is the hope of a city, and the scholar is the head of the four people." "The gentry were the foundation of the ancient dynasty, they controlled the vast majority of resources and rights, and when Onishi attacked the gentry, he naturally did not get the support of the gentry.

Historically, Zhang Xianzhong fought on both sides of Shu, not only to deal with the Qing soldiers, but also to deal with the Ming army, as well as the rebellion of the gentry class, but now Daxi and the Ming Dynasty reached a tacit understanding, the Ming army in Chongqing Prefecture in eastern Sichuan did not attack Daxi, and the Ming Dynasty did not support the rebellion in Shuzhong.

Although Shu is calm on the surface, but Daxi has not been recognized by the gentry after all, the internal danger still exists, before Zhang Xianzhong's army was strong, he could deter Shuzhong, the gentry did not dare to have any ideas, but now that Hanzhong is defeated, it is inevitable that there will be unstable factors inside.

Moreover, after the victory of the Qing soldiers in Hanzhong, they must have plotted against the whole Sichuan, Haoge and Wu Sangui with a great victory, and it was inevitable to attack Shu, but now the Western Army is elite and weak, and the soldiers have no heart to fight, and the situation can be said to be dangerous.

Zhang Kewang had already thought about the situation, he got up and said: "Father, the son thinks that things are easy in Annei. As long as the Ming Dynasty formally concluded an alliance, and then promised benefits to the gentry, and finally the father and emperor sat in Xijing, Shu can be determined. Those who are worried about the ministers are especially anxious about the outside affairs. At present, although the northern section of the Jinniu Road has been burned, it will not take a few months for the Qing army to repair it. Other than that, what is the situation in Qingshiguan and Yangxian? We also don't know that if the Qing soldiers take the Micang Road, or take the Lychee Road to attack Shu, we can't help but take precautions. Erchen thought that he should transfer troops as soon as possible to guard these two dangers. ”

Zhang Xianzhong sat up straight, "Micang Road and Lychee Road are indeed very important, who will defend them now?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong entered Hanzhong for half a year, and the affairs of Shu were entrusted to Yan Ximing, the right minister, as well as Wang Guolin, Jiang Dingzhen, and Gong Wanjing.

"When the concubine laughs on the red dust, no one knows that it is a lychee." According to legend, Yang Yuhuan, a concubine during the Xuanzong period of the Tang Dynasty, was very fond of lychees. In order to meet the needs of his favorite concubine Yang Yuhuan who likes to eat lychees, Tang Xuanzong ordered a special post from Fuzhou, Sichuan Province to Chang'an, which is the origin of Lychee Road.

The origin of the Micang Road is relatively early, according to legend, it has existed in the ancient Shu Kingdom, and it is one of the earliest passages in Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province to cross the Micang Mountain into Shu.

The importance of these two passages is as important as the Golden Bull Road, and the loss of either one will threaten the safety of Shudi.

At this time, most of the ministers left behind were in Xijing, and only Jiangding Town came to Guangyuan, so he hurriedly got up and said: "Long live, there are 15,000 people led by Feng Shuangli, the governor of the rear army, and 15,000 people led by Zhang Hualong, the governor of the right army, who guarded Wanyuan in Lizhi Road, there should be no mistakes." ”

Zhang Xianzhong nodded, "The Qing family wrote an edict to me, telling Feng and Zhang Erjun that they must be cautious of danger. In addition, it is necessary to investigate the situation in Qingshiguan and Yangxian as soon as possible, and if they are still holding on, they can be ordered to withdraw to Shuzhong. As for the Golden Bull Road, it is expected to stay in the Sword Pavilion, and the rest of the people will return to Xijing with me on a certain day. ”

A few days later, the Western Army recuperated and regained some vitality, Zhang Dingguo also came to his senses, Zhang Xianzhong immediately prepared to fight against Xijing in the south, and then arranged for the minister to go to the Ming Dynasty to formally form an alliance.

However, at this moment, a thunderbolt on a sunny day suddenly came, after the defeat of the Western Army in the north of Baocheng, Yangxian County has become a lonely city, surrounded by the Qing army again, the guard Liu Jinzhong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he was the guide of the Qing court, took the Lychee Road through Xixiang, Zhenba, and arrived at Wanyuan, falsely claimed to withdraw from Hanzhong to Shuzhong, took the opportunity to defeat Wanyuan guard Zhang Hualong, and entered the northeast of Sichuan.
