Planning
Chen Xun's orders made Guanzhong mobilized. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info since the Battle of Xingyang, the strength of the Guanzhong soldiers has been greatly damaged, in order to have enough men to provide financial security for Guanzhong, Chen Xun controlled the number of troops at around 200,000, although there are only 200,000 soldiers and horses, there is no 400,000 troops in the Xingyang War, but these 200,000 soldiers are carefully selected, and their selection conditions are all in accordance with the Wei Wushu phalanx of the year, I have to say that the physical fitness of those alien races in Hexi is good, so that they have become the main members of the 200,000 army.
For those alien races, Chen Xun gradually let down his guard against them after naturalizing them, because now the alien races in Hexi have become the people of Guanzhong, Chen Xun has a good saying.
"If everyone has food and clothing, then who will rebel, and if there are still people who will rebel, then it can only be said that the brains of those in power are funny."
Back then, Wei Wushu could sweep the world with 50,000 soldiers, but now Chen Xun has 200,000 soldiers and horses. Of course, in addition to Chen Xun, the major princes have higher and higher requirements for their soldiers and horses, such as the Jingzhou soldiers, whose current equipment is even better than that of the Guanzhong soldiers, but what can be done about this, who calls them rich. The 200,000 elite soldiers did not make Chen Xun have a sense of superiority in his heart, on the contrary, Chen Xun was still very worried about the future, because his troops were advancing, and other people would never lag behind, this is a cycle, which can be said to be benign or vicious, the reason why it is said to be benign is because the quality of the army is increasing, but the increase in the quality of the army means that the enemy is more tenacious when attacking the city, and the casualties to be paid are greater.
Chen Xun mobilized the soldiers and horses of all parties to make a trend of wanting to fight, just to let Jingzhou's follow-up soldiers and horses in Xichuan no longer be transferred to the west, this time it was Chen Xun's test for Xiang Ji, Xiang Ji passed he could let Xiang Ji take over his class safely and steadily, if not, then that is to say, Ming Xiang Ji is still too tender, and it still needs to be sharpened, and the position of the lord of Guanzhong is still to be discussed, after all, Chen Xun also has a son, his favorite son.
.........
The marching speed of the soldiers in Guanzhong was very slow, and a full ten days had passed, and their soldiers and horses had not yet passed the Jiameng Pass, which made Liu Zhang very anxious. Emperor Xian's layout for many years made the Jingzhou soldiers successfully enter the land of Xichuan, that outbreak caught Liu Zhang off guard, and now Emperor Xian's soldiers and horses are outside Mianzhu Pass, although there is a general Zhang Ren stationed, but in the face of hundreds of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers, Liu Zhang's heart is still a little drummed, so no one can compare to him for the urgency of reinforcements in Guanzhong. Liu Zhang is the son of Liu Yan, and Liu Yan is the initiator of this list of princes, so in the face of the emperor, Liu Zhang is not afraid.
Xiang Ji slowly led the army to Xichuan, today, Xiang Ji's soldiers and horses finally arrived outside the Jiameng Pass, looking at the Xiongguan in front of him, Xiang Ji couldn't help but sigh.
"The terrain of Jiameng Pass is dangerous. It is the main road of Shu traffic, it can be said that the peak is connected to the jade base, the ground is connected to the Jincheng, the sword pavilion and the bay is cute, the Jialing and the pillow white water, the male of the Chengtian is also. ”
Looking at Xiang Ji who sighed, Lu Xun stepped forward and said: "Jiameng Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the gateway of Hanzhong, this place is a place that must be contested, and I ask Gongzi to consider it." ”
Hearing this, Xiang Ji nodded, obviously agreeing with Lu Xun's statement.
"Order the whole army to rest at Jiameng Pass tonight." Xiang Ji gave an order and made the whole army march towards Jiameng Pass.
The guard of Jiameng Pass is named Gao Pei, who is one of the best generals in Xichuan, with strong martial arts, and this time he was ordered to receive reinforcements from the Guanzhong, and at this moment Xiang Ji finally took the soldiers and horses to feel that he was overjoyed.
"Xiang Gongzi, it's polite." When Xiang Ji's soldiers and horses came to Jia Meng Pass, Gao Pei personally went down to greet him, looking at the Pingxi Hou Gongzi in front of him, Gao Pei's brows were furrowed, because the information he got was that Xiang Ji was a sick man who couldn't help but be weak, and Chen Xun sent him out this time just to not have much of his prestige, and now, how could the person in front of him have that feeling of being sick.
Xiang Ji is handsome and upright, and holding a spear in his hand makes him even more heroic.
"General Gao, it's polite." Xiang Ji's hand made Gao Pei wake up from his daze, Gao Pei hurriedly returned the salute, and then secretly vigilant in his heart.
On the same day, Gao Pei invited Xiang Ji to a banquet, and after the three rounds of wine and the guests dispersed, Gao Pei's face instantly became gloomy.
"Come, submit this letter to the lord, don't let the lord be deceived by Zhang Su again." Gao Pei handed the letter in his hand to his cronies, and he believed that Zhang Su deliberately said that Xiang Ji was so unbearable, so that Xichuan's soldiers and horses could relax their vigilance, and then profit from it.
Gao Pei's cronies wanted to get out of Jiameng Pass overnight, but Xiang Ji had already sent people to ambush outside Jiameng Pass and kill Gao Pei's cronies. This matter was very hidden, and the next day, another "Gao Pei's cronies rushed to Chengdu." ”
"What, looking at the letter in his hand, Zhang Su's face was full of disbelief, Xiang Ji he had seen, it definitely belonged to the straw bag level, but now Gao Pei's letter to Liu Zhang said that Xiang Ji had the demeanor of Chen Xun back then, which made Zhang Su not calm in an instant.
"Come on, go to Jiameng Pass to talk and check the intelligence of Xiang Ji, the commander of the Guanzhong Army."
When the spies returned to Zhang's mansion, Zhang Su's face was full of disbelief, because Xiang Ji was indeed as Gao Pei said.
Zhang Su was shocked and immediately wanted to go out of the house to meet Liu Zhang.
"Master Zhang, what do you want to do, you must know that it was my son-in-law who intercepted Gao Peishen's letter and handed it over to you, otherwise you would not be able to sit here so peacefully now.
"What do you want to do?" Zhang Su looked at the envoy from Guanzhong, his eyes were a little cold.
"I just don't know what I want Master Zhang to do." After the envoy of Guanzhong finished speaking, he turned and left.
In the past few days, Zhang Suyi has been by Liu Zhang's side, and he has also intercepted some of the documents handed to Liu Zhang. Looking at Gao Pei's letters, Zhang Su was very dissatisfied.
In order to cover up his dereliction of duty, Zhang Su kept Gao Pei's letters private, and then began to fan the flames against Liu Zhang, causing Gao Pei to lose Liu Zhang's trust. I have to say that Zhang Su's eloquence is still very good, under his persuasion, Gao Pei, a loyal general, gradually lost Liu Zhang's trust, in Liu Zhang's heart, Gao Pei has become the kind of brave and unscrupulous, and then likes to fan the flames, as if Liu Zhang doesn't know him.
