Chapter 218 **** Rong Zhi takes Yangping Pass
Who is Frustrated? That was the oldest subordinate under Han Jun's command, and his status was also extremely high. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAnd who is Huang Zhong? To put it mildly, it's just a general who has just surrendered, if it weren't for Han Jun's introduction, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to talk to Fu Zhi.
And Huang Zhong is the one who knows how to advance and retreat best, so he hurriedly replied: "The lord praises falsely, the gentleman praises falsely, and I dare not be loyal and ashamed!" ”
Xu Huang stared at Huang Zhong for a long time before finally nodding and sighing: "Brother Han Sheng has a bee's waist, thick hands and feet, a steady and powerful step, and restrained eyes, he must be a master!" ”
Huang Zhong smiled humbly, "This must be General Xu Huangxu who defended Anyi and defeated the Great Han Army's God Emperor Fu Song, right?" Compared to you, I'm just a glow of fire. ”
"Okay, don't be modest, none of my Han Jun's people are not dragons and phoenixes among people!"
Han Jun laughed and interrupted: "The last time I came to Chang'an, it was still a ruin, and there was no half-point king. Today, when I revisit the old place, I finally understand that Emperor Gaozu set the capital here, and it was really far-sighted! ”
Fu Zhu nodded and agreed: "Guanzhong is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can overlook the world, it is indeed a treasure land of Longxing." ”
"Bullshit!"
Guo Jia pouted disdainfully and said: "In this world, there is a dragon among people, but there is no dragon in the earth." If Guanzhong is a treasure land, how can Qinchuan be burned to white land by Xiang Yu for eight hundred miles? How could Chang'an be destroyed by the hands of the red eyebrows? ”
Han Jun and Fu Zhu smiled at each other, and neither of them continued to debate with Guo Jia. The art of Feng Shui is already mysterious and mysterious, and if it can be explained clearly, it will lose the necessity of existence.
The Weiyang Palace of the Han Dynasty, once the main hall of the Western Han Empire, the symbol of Wei Wei's imperial power, always fell first in the war. When he first came to Chang'an, Weiyang Palace, which had been ravaged by the Xiliang military disaster, had long since lost its previous weather and was reduced to an overgrown ruin.
After two years of renovation, the dilapidated Weiyang Palace has finally regained its vitality, although it is a little less imperial than before, but it has added a bit of grace and luxury. Walking on the cobblestone-paved road, Han Jun's mood was quite complicated. I think that back then, it was in Chang'an that he met Cai Yan and Tang Ji, and it was here that he became a great general.
It can be said that Chang'an is a blessed land that changed his fate, so this time Cong Youyan trekked here, as if he was going home, he felt very cordial.
Once, only the two Han emperors could sit in a position, and Han Jun sat on it so unceremoniously. Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, the cumbersome and space-occupying dragon chair had already been carried away by the frustrated order.
"Please be seated!"
Han Jun waved his hand vigorously, as if the world was in his arms, "This southward journey is aimed at the two places of Hanchuan, if you can get Longzhishu, then the world has already won two-thirds, and there is a condescending trend from north to south, from west to east, eliminating the separation, and sweeping the world will no longer be a luxury!" ”
After a slight pause, Han Jun turned his head to look at Fu Zhu and asked, "I wonder how Guanzhong is preparing?" ”
Fu Zhu Zhengse replied: "After receiving the order of the Lord Gong's army, General Gongming and I did not dare to relax a little, and we were all ready to prepare for war!" ”
Han Jun nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have always been relieved to do things with Mr. Gong." There was news from Yizhou that Liu Zhang had agreed to provide food and salary for our army in the south. Therefore, Guanzhong only needs to prepare the army's food for a month. ”
Frustrated his lips and hesitated to persuade: "Although Guanzhong was almost destroyed in the Xiliang military disaster a few years ago, after all, the foundation is still there, and in the past few years, it has encouraged cultivation and recuperation, and there have been earth-shaking changes compared to before. Therefore, I dare to guarantee that there will be no problem in stockpiling grain in Guanzhong Prefecture and supplying the army for food in March. Yizhou, Hanzhong, the mountains are complex, the ground is narrow and the road is narrow, the grain transfer is difficult, the situation is on the battlefield, the wind and clouds are unpredictable, in case of emergency, the subordinates dare to suggest that the lord should bring enough food for March with the army, so as to ensure that this battle is foolproof! ”
Han Jun sighed and said: "How can I not worry that the war will not go well and fall into a stalemate, it will not be difficult to advance and retreat when the time comes, and I know that Liu Zhang is not trustworthy." But it is not easy to have such a stable and peaceful scene in Guanzhong today, and I really can't bear to break this peace because of the war, so that those who can't live a stable life will be affected! ”
Fu Zhu replied confidently: "I dare to make a military order, if there is a trace of turmoil in the pass, the lord can only ask!" ”
"Really?"
Han Jun took a deep breath and asked with a fixed stare at Fu Zhi.
"It's true!"
Frustrated and arched his hand: "In the name of the lord's benevolence and righteousness, Guanzhong is all grateful. Moreover, in the past two years, seven or eight out of ten displaced people who settled in Guanzhong were from Hanzhong, and because they could not bear the poison of Zhang Lu and Wudou Midao, they had to abandon their families and businesses and flee from Hanzhong over the mountains and mountains. And in the hearts of these people, they are always looking forward to Wang Shi's southern expedition! ”
Han Jun nodded heavily, clenched his fists and said fiercely, "I will not let them down!" ”
20,000 secluded and elite soldiers, 20,000 Guanzhong soldiers, a total of 40,000 troops in the southern expedition, in the early autumn of the first year of Taiping, the general Han Jun, the military division Guo Jia, the general Xu Huang, Zhang Xiu, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong and others, outside the Anmen Gate in the south of Chang'an, set up an altar to worship the sky, and swore to go out!
Xun Yu, Xun Chen, and Xun You's uncle and nephew are respectively located in Hebei, You, and Sanzhou. Zhao Yun sat in Liyang to defend against Cao Cao. Xu Rong, Zhang Jaw, and Zhang Liao were stationed in Liaodong, Xuzhou, and Hanoi respectively to ensure that the rear was stable, and Han Jun would have no distractions on the front line.
All the way to Fufeng, martial arts, through the Chencang Ancient Road, around Taibai Mountain into the territory of Hanzhong, but still did not encounter a single soldier of the enemy, Han Jun couldn't help but be vigilant about this, Guo Jia was disapproving, sitting in a comfortable carriage tasting the best Biluochun, looking extremely leisurely and sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that I have been in Youzhou for a long time and have been a little bored, and I want to come out to relax, this trip to Hanzhong, in fact, there is no need for the lord to levy it himself, and he can return with a meritorious service by sending a general casually." Not to mention the narrow soldiers in Hanzhong, over the years, they have been tormented by Zhang Lu's anger and resentment, and the person who relies on it is only Yangping Pass. As long as Yangping Pass is broken, Hanzhong will no longer be in danger to defend, and it will take Nanzheng directly, but it will be as easy as turning over! ”
Over the years, Han Jun's body has become stronger and stronger, and his equestrian skills are getting better and better, so he doesn't like to stay in the carriage for a long time. But there was no way, Guo Jia was weak and couldn't stand the bumps, so the army had to be equipped with a carriage, and Han Jun could only endure his impatience to stay in the car to accompany him.
Listening to the sound of Xiao Xiao's horse chirping outside the window, Han Jun was already upset enough, and after listening to Guo Jia's crazy words, he was even more furious, and glared at him fiercely, "I warn you, it was you who insisted on Jinrong being the pioneer at the beginning, if something goes wrong with him, I will only ask!" ”
The pioneer candidate, Han Jun originally liked Huang Zhong, firstly, because he had just served under his command and suddenly ascended to a high position, so he was afraid that others would be dissatisfied, so he needed to create opportunities for him to work; Second, Huang Zhong's cautious and unconservative character is also very suitable for building bridges for the army to open roads and rivers in the mountains. However, Guo Jia strongly recommended Zhang Xiu as a pioneer, on the grounds that he was young and vigorous, and he would definitely go straight to the heart of Hanzhong with the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying.
Because of the incident with the Zou family, Han Jun always felt a trace of guilt for Zhang Xiu in his heart. Although Zhang Xiu didn't think so on the surface, Han Jun knew that this incident would definitely plant a nail in his heart. Therefore, it is not good to openly refuse Guo Jia's proposal, for fear of making Zhang Xiu even more unhappy.
Agreeing is agreeing, but Han Jun's heart is still not at ease. It is true that Zhang Xiu is a powerful general, but it is precisely because of this that Han Jun is worried that he will fall into the trap of the Hanzhong army. In history, when Cao Cao conquered Hanzhong in the south, a combination of famous generals like Zhang Jaw and Xiahou Yuan suffered losses in front of the Hanzhong army. Zhang Xiu, can he?
is also because of the Zou family, Zhang Xiu's identity under Han Jun's account is slightly embarrassing. Therefore, in order to avoid being ridiculed by others for relying on a woman's nepotism, Zhang Xiu's mood of being anxious to make contributions is more urgent than anyone else. But it was precisely because of this urgency that he quickly suffered.
And Zhang Xiu didn't know that all this was expected by Guo Jia.
Lazily stretched his waist and changed to a more comfortable position to lie down, Guo Jia said leisurely: "If Zhang Xiu is not defeated first, how can he capture Yangping Pass in the shortest possible time?" ”
"What?"
Han Jun was stunned, looking at Guo Jia with complicated eyes, and he couldn't beat Guo Jia, who couldn't be scolded.
Guo Jia smiled, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, my lord, Zhang Xiu will be fine." How to say that he is also a famous general in Xiliang, and he always has the ability to protect himself. ”
Han Jun gritted his teeth and said, "What about the soldiers who died in vain? What did they do wrong? We can design a deception, so why do we have to sacrifice the blood of our soldiers for your strategy? ”
Han Jun's face was not good, but Guo Jia had a calm face, and after pondering for a moment, he said slowly: "The lord is the lord, so he should be benevolent. And I am a strategist, if my heart is not ruthless and not vicious, how can I assist the lord to achieve great things? I only know that although there are many wine bags and rice bags in Hanzhong, there are still some differences between true defeat and fraudulent defeat. And if you want to conquer Yangping Pass once you are detected by the enemy, you will have to shed several times or even dozens of times more blood! ”
Han Jun was silent, he was not a stupid person, let alone a stubborn person, so he quickly accepted Guo Jia's statement. But in his heart, he was still as uncomfortable as a knife. Probably, this is the same as being reluctant to let the child catch the wolf.
Zhang Xiu commanded 5,000 elites, rushed all the way, invincible, and soon came to Yangping Pass.
