Ma Chao and Xu Shu led 15,000 soldiers to take the Qishan Avenue and arrived in Tianshui. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It seems that Ge Lianglian released three suspicious soldiers, which still played a great role, making Cao Jun guess and guess with great effort, and relaxed his vigilance in the direction of Longyou, which was far away from Guanzhong.

Ma Chao and the others marched quickly, and without encountering any resistance along the way, they arrived at Qishan.

Because when Liu Bei captured Hanzhong before, relying on Ge Liang's rapid attack, he quickly took Hanzhong almost without suffering losses, after Cao Cao had no choice but to withdraw his troops, he also deeply felt that Wudu County was too remote and would be attacked by Liu Bei at any time, so he moved many local people to Guanzhong and Tianshui, and only sent Yang Fu to take up his post there to serve too much, symbolically driving jurisdiction, and even did not send a few soldiers and horses.

Liu Bei's last expedition to the west, although he was blocked by Chen Cang, but on the way back, he easily took down Wudu County.

Yang Fu knew that it was difficult to protect the martial arts, so he returned to Tianshui before Liu Bei arrived.

Cao Cao learned that Yang Fu's military capital was too guarded to be too strong, so he transferred him to serve in the imperial court.

Ma Chao came this time, and he felt deeply regretful, he wanted to find Yang Fu for revenge.

A few years ago, he had attacked for eight months in a row, and finally conquered Jicheng, and he wanted to proclaim himself Liangzhou Mu, and since then he has been separating Liangzhou, which can be regarded as a prince.

Although he killed Shi Weikang, the assassin of Liangzhou, he praised the courage of Yang Fu, a general who resisted desperately, and left them by his side.

I didn't expect this to appreciate people but not appreciate it, this guy, on the surface, was obedient on the surface, but secretly he used tricks, colluded with several old officials of Tianshui, deliberately let his brother Jiang Xu rebel in Licheng, and then persuaded himself to personally lead troops to conquer.

Then as soon as he came out of Jicheng, Yang Fu closed the city gate, causing him to fight Jicheng for eight months, and he was deceived back by a few words.

From then on, he lost his base, cut off his backup, and continued to have food and grass and military resources, and soon he could only flee to Hanzhong in defeat.

After that, he also borrowed troops from Zhang Lu to fight back to Tianshui, but after all, the troops were weak, and he could only return in vain.

Now, he is already a hussar general under Liu Bei, the new Han Emperor, leading the Liangzhou pastor, and this time he will come back, and he will be ashamed of his blood!

Although Yang Fu is no longer here, he can really avenge his family by taking Tianshui and other Liangzhou counties, unifying Liangzhou, making himself the official position of Liangzhou pastor, and then marching into Luoyang and killing all the Cao father and son.

Just when he was thinking about it and his heart was surging, the sergeant at the front came to report: "General, someone claimed to be ordered by Da Sima to report the military situation at the front to the general. ”

"Send him to see him!" Ma Chao came back to his senses from his emotion.

This time the troops were not completely at their disposal.

The person who came was brought to the horse and reported to Ma Chao: "General, there are only a few Wei soldiers stationed in Qishan, and they are not able to resist the army at all, and it is purely a warning role, and Shangqi is also not a lot of garrisons, so the general can quickly march and take it as soon as possible." ”

Ma Chao nodded, he already knew.

In the past two years, in addition to Ge Liang himself constantly sending people to infiltrate Tianshui, he also asked Ma Chao, Chen Yin, and Hou Xuan to send their own cronies to inquire about the military situation in Longyou counties under various names, contact Qiang, Di and other people in various places who have the heart of returning to the Han Dynasty, and secretly hoard grain, grass and ordnance, just waiting for their expedition.

After many defeats, Ma Chao also thought bitterly that although he was able to charge into battle, when it came to strategizing, he really couldn't take the table, otherwise, he would not have fallen into Cao Cao and Yang Fu's tricks many times, so he was defeated again and again, and fled to Shuzhong alone.

At the same time, he also knew his actual status in Liu Bei's heart, and he didn't have much chance to make mistakes.

Moreover, the big Sima who commanded this march also seemed to be quite godly in the use of soldiers, and he had to admire it.

In Hanzhong, in just a few days, he took Nanzheng directly; In Jingzhou, he counterattacked Sun Quan by surprise, and in a few days, tens of thousands of enemies were annihilated.

He believes that this time, there must be a lot of unexpected tricks, and this link is linked, but he can't make a mistake in his own place.

What's more, people also arranged a Xu Shu by their side, isn't it just to remind themselves not to be impulsive?

"My lord, then let's hurry up and march into the army, take the enemy camp in Qishan, and then you guard Qishan, and I will attack Shangqi?" Ma Chao simply asked Xu Shu first.

Xu Shu hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "I will obey the general's orders." ”

In fact, this was all discussed in advance, and Ma Chao didn't say anything more, and immediately marched with his army and went straight to the enemy camp in Qishan.

The Wei soldiers guarding the Qishan barracks, there were only a few hundred people, and they were stationed here, really just to play the role of a warning message, or to prevent a small group of mobs from making trouble, at this time they had learned that a large number of Shu troops were approaching, and they were far away from the county seat, they were not opponents at all, and there was no point in holding on, and before Ma Chao they arrived, they had abandoned the camp.

Ma Chao occupied the empty camp, and immediately left Xu Shu, Chen Yin, Hou Xuan and others to step up the expansion and consolidation of the camp, while he and his younger brother Ma Dai led the army straight to Shangqi.

Xu Shu really began to talk a lot at this time, and reminded: "General, if the enemy is not prepared, quickly take Shangqi; If the enemy is very well guarded and it is difficult to attack for a while, it is hoped that the general will not attack forcibly, but can bluff and turn to Jicheng, or go to other places to expand the momentum. ”

"My lord, please rest assured, Ma Chao naturally remembers Da Sima's previous instructions, and will never be impulsive and ruin the plan." Ma Chao suppressed his impatience, hugged his fist at Xu Shu, and led the troops away.

In Shangtai City, the officials and defenders had heard that the Shu army had advanced in three directions and was plotting to pass the Guanzhong, but they did not expect that the enemy would march from Qishan Avenue to attack the Longyou counties.

Because, they all know that Liu Bei's ambition is to attack the Central Plains and restore the Han dynasty, and after having Yizhou and Jingzhou bases to self-finance, they will naturally keep their eyes on Chang'an and Luoyang, and they will not look down on these remote places such as Longyou Counties at all.

They didn't even go down the river to attack on the Jiangdong side.

And now, Liu Bei personally led the main force to attack Xiangfan in Jingzhou, leaving much less troops on the Western Front than last time, and they were even guessing that this time the enemy dared to divide his troops into three ways, which was simply a joke.

In their opinion, these three roads are only suspicious soldiers, purely to build momentum, contain Cao Pi's military deployment in Jingzhou, and reduce the pressure on that side, and it is impossible to really attack Guanzhong.

As for the counties of Longyou, people are too lazy to take care of it.

But at this moment, there was news that the Shu Han army had arrived in Qishan and was rushing towards Shangqicheng.

Everyone panicked all of a sudden, what can I do?

In the counties of Longyou, to be honest, except for rebellions in peacetime, the imperial court will send a large army to suppress it. In peacetime, there were no imperial troops stationed at all, just some county soldiers, and it was only to protect the officials of the counties and counties, and to show the jurisdiction of the imperial court over various places, where could they withstand the attacks of the long-trained army.
