Wei Yan was ordered to set off to Wudu to pick up Zhang Fei and Ma Chao's retreat, shouting that he only needed to bring the five hundred warriors. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hmph, I didn't know that you had itchy hands, and you were going to take those 500 people with you, and you still had to find a chance to fight with Cao Jun? Ge Liang didn't stop it, aren't these specially trained mountain fighters just to fight in this kind of terrain? Just specially advised, don't be greedy for merit, make the tail too big, and be bitten by others, and ask Liu Bei to instruct Ma Chao and Zhang Fei to try their best to move the local people who are willing to move to Hanzhong, anyway, now Zhang Lu, Yang Ang, Yang Bai They have all run away, a lot of arable land can be distributed, and those who are willing to come will be issued with farm tools and exempted from paying taxes for five years.

Liu Bei also assigned Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Chen Shi to lead the army forward for dozens of miles, and chose several terrains to set up ambushes, preparing to meet the pursuit of Cao Cao's army.

Zhang Fei and Ma Chao led the army to confront Xiahou Yuan in Wudu for a month, and there was no major battle at all.

Xiahou Yuan was originally preparing to destroy Song Jian, who had been the king of Caohan for 30 years, but Cao Cao heard the news that Liu Bei was plotting to capture Hanzhong, and hurriedly sent Zhang He and Zhu Ling and others to lead an army to help him pacify Wudu and Yinping first, and then he led a large army to come later and fight with Liu Bei for Hanzhong.

Xiahou Yuan fought bravely, and with the help of so many generals, he quickly pacified several kings in Wudu, took away 100,000 grains, and then insisted on arguing.

Seeing that the battle was going smoothly and the army was sufficient, Zhang He suggested taking the opportunity to continue the march and seize Hanzhong before Liu Bei.

Xiahou Yuan shook his head violently: "Didn't you say that Zhang Fei and Ma Chao had already come to Wudu through frustration?" The army advanced lightly, and when it came, it was copied by others, and the military rations were gone, and the people could not come back. "Determined to hold on and wait for Cao Cao's army to arrive.

Wait, wait, Cao Cao hasn't come yet, but he waited for Zhang Fei and Ma Chao first.

Here Zhang He advocates actively facing the battle, Xiahou Yuan resolutely refuses to allow it, he has fought with Ma Chao, he knows that guy is very powerful, and it is easy to suffer losses when he fights easily, why not make full use of the good terrain, and let them rush to attack and die, isn't it better?

What's more, now the enemy commander will be Zhang Fei, this damn guy! I don't know if my hard-working niece is doing well, although I received one or two letters saying that it was quite good, who knows if it was written under duress? But since Zhang Fei married her as his wife, it shouldn't be too bad, right?

Ma Chao here is also hateful, and he just wants to defeat Xiahou Yuan again to avenge the loss of Liangzhou, but he is a newly returned foreign general, although his official position is similar to Zhang Fei, but he knows that Zhang Fei's status in Liu Bei's heart cannot be compared, not to mention that at least this time the army is the main general? So if you have grievances, you should endure them first.

Zhang Fei, like Xiahou Yuan, was too moved by this "old man's" feat of abandoning his parents and children to support his deceased brother and orphan daughter. Anyway, this time Liu Bei originally assigned him the task of stopping Xiahou Yuan from helping Zhang Lu, and he didn't bring many people to come, since people don't move, then I won't move.

The stalemate between the two sides did not last long before Wei Yan came over and told them that they could withdraw their troops and go to Hanzhong.

Zhang Fei was so happy that he quickly ended this embarrassing situation, and immediately asked Ma Chao to persuade the local people to follow, and then withdrew his troops and retreated.

Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He were deeply surprised when they heard that Zhang Fei had withdrawn from the army, could it be that those two guys were really afraid of Lao Tzu?

The next day, they got the news that Liu Bei had taken Hanzhong, and the two of them were even more surprised, so soon, could it be that Zhang Lu took the initiative to surrender?

After a few more days, Cao Cao led the army to finally come slowly, and when he heard the news, he was full of remorse, because he had sent someone to negotiate with Zhang Lu before, knowing that he was facing Liu Bei's threat, and he had the intention of submitting to him Cao Cao, but he had not yet made up his final decision, and he originally wanted him to taste the bitterness first, and then persuade him to surrender when he and Liu Bei were about to fight, and let him follow him with all his heart, but he didn't expect Liu Bei to drive Zhang Lu away almost in the blink of an eye, and the fat meat in his mouth flew away like this?

Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He were still asking for instructions on when to march into the army, and Cao Cao, who was full of hatred, was determined to recover this loss and immediately ordered the army to march.

As the army gradually approached Hanzhong, Cao Cao looked at the towering mountains and steep cliffs around him, as well as the bottomless deep stream under his feet, and that passion was slowly blown away in the wind.

Along the way, it was almost deserted, Cao Cao kept beating drums in his heart, forget it, it's better to go back, this kind of ghost place looks unlucky.

However, the army is mighty, so far away, before leaving, he told the generals to take Hanzhong effortlessly, and now if he didn't even hit Liu Beijun's face, he just went back, how could he have a face to see people, and how would he serve the public in the future?

Zhang He led the vanguard army, but the faster he chased, the more he chased the braver, because he knew that Zhang Fei and they swept away many residents of Wudu this time, and most of those people dragged their families and brought all their belongings with them, and they must be moving slowly, even if they can't break Zhang Fei and snatch those people back, it can be regarded as a great achievement.

At the beginning, Liu Bei of Jingzhou crossed the river with the people, didn't Cao Gong also send tigers and leopards to chase after him overnight?

Chasing and chasing, all kinds of rocks and crossbars began to block the road, Zhang He was full of joy, which shows that the enemy has noticed that there are pursuers and is trying his best to block it, that is to say, the enemy is not far from here!

However, he has always paid attention to the terrain with his troops, seeing that the road is difficult and dangerous, and he often can't see the follow-up team behind him when he turns a corner, this kind of terrain is too suitable for ambushes, so he quickly and cautiously sent a large number of sentinels, paying attention to the slopes and valleys on both sides, and strictly preventing the enemy from ambushing.

He didn't forget that time he chased in a hurry, and in the end, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang occupied the favorable terrain and set a trap, causing heavy casualties to the tiger and leopard riders.

The sentry returned to report that there appeared to be a suspicious person on the cliff ahead.

"How many are there?" Zhang He hurriedly asked.

The sergeant held out three fingers: "Three people." ”

"It's just three, and no one else is in ambush? You didn't go up there to check? "Zhang He is very cautious.

The sergeant replied: "General, the cliff is a bit high, it is not easy to go up, it is difficult to come down, and the place above is small, and there are not many people in ambush, at most it is to release arrows and throw stones." ”

"If you don't rush down and slash and kill, can't you kill you by throwing arrows and smashing stones?" Zhang He felt that this guy's head was broken.

The sergeant hurriedly replied clearly: "General, those three woodcutters are dressed as woodcutters, and they are sitting on the edge of the cliff, and they are not hidden. ”

Zhang He shook his head and said: "That's not right, when the ordinary people saw the army coming, they hurriedly hid away." Who are they, you must find out, have you asked them? ”

"I asked, but they didn't answer, they just asked us if it was Zhang He who came." When the sergeant said this, he quickly knelt down. (To be continued.) )
