Chapter 268: Three-Way Attack

Zhang Song presented the map, and Ming Jian was immediately overjoyed.

Since ancient times, the road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult to go to the sky, this sentence is to exhaust how difficult the road into Sichuan is, more difficult than climbing to the sky, how terrifying do you say?

But with Zhang Song's map, Ming Jian can find the right direction.

"Yongnian was worried about the people of Yizhou, and I was very pleased to present a map of Yizhou. Why don't you stay by my side and be a staff officer with the army, what do you think? Ming Jian said with a smile.

Zhang Song said: "Your Majesty, if Liu Zhang knew that the minister had taken refuge in His Majesty, he would definitely attack the minister's family, so I also asked Your Majesty for permission to let the minister return to Yizhou and be the internal response of the army." And there are like-minded people in Yizhou, Fufeng people have both filial piety and civil and military skills, and they have long been fascinated by His Majesty, and after the minister went back, he persuaded him to serve His Majesty, with the strength of the two of us, for His Majesty's internal response, then the city will become Your Majesty's land sooner or later! ”

Zhang Song was sincere, but Ming Jian knew that if Zhang Song went back, he might repeat the mistakes of the past, and then he would be told by his brother and then beheaded by Liu Zhang.

"Yongnian, since you insist on this, I can't force you to stay, but you have to be careful in everything, don't get drunk, confide in your confidants, even your loved ones, don't talk nonsense."

Ming Jian told Zhang Song.

Zhang Song said gratefully: "Your Majesty's loving heart, it is difficult to repay the minister's death!" ”

Zhang Song then took his leave, and Ming Jian immediately called a meeting of the civil and military forces to prepare to attack Yizhou.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Liu Zhang of Yizhou did not obey the orders of the imperial court, and refused to send troops to attack Wuju in Jiaozhou, and I plan to conquer Yizhou in person, what is your good plan for Aiqing?"

After Ming Jian finished speaking, everyone began to discuss.

Guo Jia, as the number one military division, was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, the road in Shuzhong is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the imperial court enters Sichuan, you need to have a map, so that even if our army can't conquer Shuzhong, you can return safely." ”

Ming Jian said with a smile: "I have been prepared for this matter a long time ago, and today Jinyiwei has sent a map of Yizhou, which shows the geographical distribution and military equipment of each county in Yizhou. ”

Guo Jia was overjoyed and said: "In this way, you can quickly reorganize the army and wave Yizhou." The minister suggested attacking from two roads, all the way up the Yangtze River, attacking Ba County, if Ba County went down, the city was shocked, Liu Zhang must come to ask for guilt, His Majesty can take the opportunity to take it, so as to pacify Shuzhong. Another way, the decree let Zhang Lu lead the army from Hanzhong to attack Shuzhong, with the action of the imperial army, Zhang Lu is also a typical bully of the soft and afraid of the hard, with the support of the imperial court, he will definitely cooperate, and Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang have hatred, Zhang Lu's mother was a concubine of Liu Zhang's father, but she did not get any name, after Liu Zhang's father died, he was driven out of the Liu family, so Zhang Lu will also cooperate with the court in order to avenge his mother's humiliation. ”

After listening to Guo Jia's words, Ming Jian was overjoyed and said: "Feng Xiao's words are very agreeable. However, I plan to give Dong Zhuo one less fire this time, and Feng Xiao will lead the army on the waterway, and all the generals will obey your orders. Then he sent Xiahou Yuan as the commander to lead the army to Hanzhong to assist Zhang Lu in the battle. I personally led the army and attacked Guanzhong. Once Guanzhong is captured, Yizhou will be under my control. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Everyone said in unison.

Then the generals were ordered, and Ming Jian transferred all the generals to Guo Jia and Xiahou Yuan, and he only took Wang Yanzhang and Lin Chong as two generals.

After leading the army of 20,000, Ming Jian set off, he released a Tyrannosaurus rex, and rode in front of the army, majestic. Xiahou Yuan also accompanied him, he was going to Hanzhong, and Mingjian could have a way, and when the time came, he would enter Hanzhong, and Mingjian would enter Nanyang.

When he arrived at the junction of Nanyang and Hanzhong, Zhang Lu personally led his subordinates to meet him, which was beyond Ming Jian's expectations.

Look at Zhang Lu, he looks like a Taoist priest, there is nothing to see.

"Chen Hanzhong guards Zhang Lu, meet Your Majesty!"

Zhang Lu is very rich in etiquette, and his subordinates and others also bowed to Ming Jian. It is estimated that they have already seen the Tyrannosaurus Rex ridden by Ming Jian, and they all worship Ming Jian like a god.

Ming Jian smiled: "Zhang is too guarded, let's be even." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Lu and the others got up at this time, and then invited Ming Jian into the city to rest.

Ming Jian said: "Zhang Taishou, if I want to attack the fortification quickly, I won't go to you, but I sent General Xiahou Yuan to lead 30,000 troops to assist you in attacking Shuzhong, you can rest easy." If you make meritorious deeds, I will reward you for your meritorious deeds, and it is not difficult to enter the pilgrimage and be crowned a marquis, do you understand? ”

Zhang Lu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty rules the world with benevolence and righteousness, Liu Zhang does not want to repay the emperor's kindness, he really deserves to die, the minister will definitely do his best to conquer the city capital as soon as possible, and dedicate Liu Zhang's head to His Majesty." ”

"Haha, in this way, I will be at ease, then don't pass by, I hope that you and I can gather in the same hall in the future, and talk about today's feelings!"

After Ming Jian finished speaking, he slapped the Tyrannosaurus rex and headed towards Nanyang.

Zhang Lu here also politely went to Hanzhong with Xiahou Yuan, along the way, Zhang Lu kept asking about the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Xiahou Yuan used the divine beast from the sky as an explanation, which made Zhang Lu's loyalty to the court improve a lot.

And after Ming Jian entered Nanyang here, he found that the situation here was recovering in an orderly manner.

After a short rest, Ming Jian led the army straight to Wuguan.

Wuguan and Hangu Pass, Xiao Pass, and Dasan Pass are collectively known as the four major fortresses in Guanzhong, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.

It itself is built on high ground and backed by mountains, which is indeed a rare majestic pass in the world. After the war at the end of Qin, this pass was mostly damaged, the two Han Dynasty periods have rebuilt this pass, and now after Dong Zhuo seized Guanzhong, a lot of construction has been carried out on this pass, Dong Zhuo does not want anyone to break through Chang'an City from here.

The city has already received the news of the arrival of the imperial army, the city gate is closed, the defenders of the city are in full array, and people have been sent to Chang'an City to report the news.

Ming Jian ordered someone to come forward and shout, Wang Yanzhang slapped his horse and rushed out, shouting at the city: "Listen to the rebels in the city, the Son of Heaven is here, quickly surrender, if you don't obey, break the city tower, you will die and have no place to be buried!" ”

Wang Yanzhang had a loud voice, but what the city responded to him was a cold arrow.

Wang Yanzhang was furious, swept the cold arrow away with one shot, and shouted: "What kind of hero is a dark arrow hurting people, there is a kind of one who comes out to fight with this general!" ”

A person popped up in the city and said with a smile: "Joke, you will only be brave, why do we have to fight with you when the Xiliang army has such a strong pass?" ”

Wang Yanzhang shouted: "Don't you dare? Wang Yanzhang, a captain of the Han Dynasty, often heard that only Lu Bu can be called a famous general under the traitor Dong Zhuo, and the rest are just rice buckets, when I saw it today, it was really so, since I didn't dare to come out to fight, why don't you go home to your mother to breastfeed? ”

Wang Yanzhang made sarcastic remarks, and the general in the city really couldn't stand it, he roared loudly: "Let your mother's fart, a certain Zhang Ji, I will capture and kill you arrogant people today!" ”

After saying that, he gave a loud order to open the door to meet the enemy.
