After two fierce battles, Yang Ren still did not hold Dingjun Mountain, and after dying in a bloody battle, the remaining less than 2,000 soldiers abandoned their weapons and surrendered on their knees.

Yang Yi's 10,000 troops were stationed on Dingjun Mountain, killing more than 8,000 soldiers, but killing more than 37,000 soldiers in Xu He and Sima Ju, and the tragic situation can be imagined.

When Xu He and Sima both came to Guo Jia's tent covered in blood and with broken weapons and armor, the two who had never closed their eyes did not look tired at all, and said to Guo Jia excitedly: "Lord, Dingjun Mountain, take it!" ”

"Good! Close the banquet and celebrate the achievements of the two generals! The two generals will go down first to rest for a while, and then I will personally toast the two generals. ”

Guo Jia, who was overjoyed, personally helped the two of them up, and then asked the two to go back first to take off their armor and wash off the dirt, and after the two left with a smile on their faces, Guo Jia turned around and walked towards the handsome position.

The corner of Xi Zhicai's mouth on the side showed a chuckle: Xu He, the diehard soldiers of the Yellow Turban under Sima Ju have now gone for most of them, and the supplementary soldiers are no longer as loyal to the two as before.

After kneeling down on the handsome seat again, Guo Jia put away his smile and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Yan, Zhang Liao." ”

The two generals came out of the ranks, Guo Jia immediately ordered: "Order the two of you to lead the soldiers under your command to go to Dingjun Mountain to set up an ambush immediately, and if there is no army coming in the direction of Hanzhong, you two will lead the army to take Hanzhong directly, and after capturing Hanzhong, no matter how much you surrender, Zhang Yan led 50,000 soldiers and horses to escort Hanzhong grain and grass back to Yangping Pass, and Zhang Liao sat in Hanzhong. ”

The two did not hesitate to hold their fists and receive their orders, and the other generals had no opinions, there was no need to say much about the importance of Hanzhong, and it was reasonable for Zhang Liao to sit in charge.

But Zhang Baiqi raised his eyes and looked at Guo Jia with deep meaning.

Zhang Yan commanded 100,000 soldiers, and when he came back from a trip to Hanzhong, there were 50,000 left......

Standing up from the handsome position again, Guo Jia came to Zhang Liao with a solemn expression, and said earnestly: "Wenyuan, Hanzhong is the throat of Yizhou, if I don't have Hanzhong, the capture of Yizhou is also a floating cloud, with you guarding Hanzhong, I don't have to worry about sleeping." ”

Zhang Liao was moved, this important task made him know that Guo Jia trusted and valued him, because guarding Hanzhong is not only to be loyal, but also to have wisdom and bravery, Zhang Liao immediately clasped his fists and said firmly: "Lord, I am in the hands of the lord." ”

The second general immediately led the army to Dingjun Mountain to set up an ambush, and Guo Jia held a banquet for Sima Ju and Xu He to celebrate their achievements at Yangping Pass.

From the loss of Yangping Pass to Zhang Lu from Hanzhong to rescue Dingjun Mountain, the exploration cavalry returned to Hanzhong from Yangping Pass, but Yang Bai's 15,000 army had to enter the Dingjun Mountain boundary in a half and a half, on this half of the gap, Yang Bai not only failed to rescue the Dingjun Mountain that had just been lost half a day ago, but also fell into the ambush of Zhang Liao and Zhang Yan at dusk, 15,000 soldiers and horses lost more than 8,000, and the remaining more than 6,000 fled back to Hanzhong with Yang Bai, and was chased and killed countless by Zhang Liao and Zhang Yan on the way, and when he entered Hanzhong City, Yang Bai was less than 3,000 remnants of soldiers around him.

Zhang Lu, who was worried in Hanzhong, saw Yang Bai leading the remnants to flee for his life, and in addition to being frightened, he also knew that the general trend had gone, and looked at Zhang Liao and Zhang Yan's 110,000 troops approaching the city, and Zhang Lu surrendered the city.

From the beginning of Guo Jia's entry into the boundary of Yizhou, it only took seven days to quickly capture Hanzhong, the grain and grass in the army were unsustainable, and it was less than three days of grain, and the victory of Yangping Pass and Hanzhong fell into the hands, so that Guo Jia wandered between life and death, and survived in a desperate situation, and had a foothold.

Two days later, Zhang Yan led an army of 50,000 to escort grain and grass back to Yangping Pass, which not only made Guo Jia's army have sufficient supplies of grain and grass, but also brought tens of thousands of sets of armor and weapons that Zhang Lu hoarded in Hanzhong to expand the army, so that after Guo Jia's army was armed, its combat strength would reach a new level.

Hanzhong was handed over to Zhang Liao, although most of the grain and grass were sent to Guo Jia, but as long as he endured for more than a month, as soon as the autumn harvest arrived, the grain and grass would be sufficient, and Zhang Liao's original army of 10,000 plus the 50,000 left by Zhang Yan, as well as more than 20,000 soldiers in Yangping Pass and Hanzhong City, Zhang Liao had nearly 100,000 people in the land of Hanzhong, and it was more than enough to stick to Hanzhong.

But Hanzhong will definitely not be able to raise an army of **10,000, Guo Jia also has other plans, as long as he takes Chengdu, he will send Hanzhong to lead the army from Zhang Liao to sweep the Wudu Yinping County in the west.

In the reply sent to Zhang Liao, Guo Jia simply ordered two things, first, after the army rested, cut off the road to the north, which was to prevent the wealthy families from fleeing Yizhou. Second, put Zhang Lu in the cabinet, if this person preaches and demagogues, he will be killed. Zhang Lu's old ministry can be gradually promoted, and those who have dissenting intentions or gain power and wealth will be killed.

After counting supplies and distributing military supplies, Guo Jia prepared to wave his army south after resting at Yangping Pass for three days.

This time, Guo Jia gave priority equipment to Gan Ning and others, at present, Gan Ning Gao Shun has 10,000 soldiers and horses each, Xu Chudian Wei Zhoutai has 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command, fully armed, plus 50,000 soldiers under Zhang Yan, 25,000 soldiers under Zhang Baiqi, Sima Ju and Xu He have a total of 25,000 soldiers, and Guo Jia led an army of nearly 150,000 to the south to point to Chengdu!

Guo Jia, who led the army to embark on the journey again, rode on a horse, looked into the south, which was the direction of Chengdu, and suddenly turned his head to Xi Zhicai on the side and said: "Zhicai, you are very eloquent, for me to give Liu Yan a battle table, if he surrenders without a fight, I will treat his family well, if he refuses to surrender and fight, when Chengdu is captured by me, I will not leave anyone in the Liu family." ”

Xi Zhicai, who was riding on a horse and swaying leisurely, nodded, this is a war, the king is defeated, and it is common sense to cut the grass and eradicate the root troubles, and there is no objection to this, but his face is sad, and he hesitated: "If you take the initiative to go to the battle table and alarm Liu Yan, it will not be good for the lord to go south." ”

Guo Jia smiled indifferently and said: "Since Zhang Lu sent troops to rescue Dingjun Mountain, he must also send people to Chengdu to move the rescue troops, Liu Yan should have learned the news that a large army has entered Yizhou at this moment." ”

Xi Zhicai thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement: "Since this is the case, it seems that if you want to enter Chengdu, it will take a lot of twists and turns." ”

Guo Jiashen thought so, and said indifferently: "If you take Yizhou, there is only one pass, one and one city left." ”

One level: Jia Meng Pass.

One: Sword Pavilion Road.

One city: Chengdu City.

Singing and dancing in the city of Chengdu, Liu Yan has been in charge of Yizhou for two years, since he secretly sent Zhang Lu to capture Hanzhong, Liu Yan's ambitions have been completely exposed, and the Kwantung Army has used the Son of Heaven honor guard, and the Kwantung Army attacked Dong, he is even more unheard of, although let the Kwantung heroes and Dong Zhuo fight to the death, he made great efforts in Yizhou to strengthen the army and horses, and then enter the world.

Liu Yan has ambition and ability, and his political achievements after entering Yizhou are a hundred times better than the previous inspection, but he lacks a sense of vigilance to be prepared for danger in times of peace.

Looking at the situation in the world, Dong Zhuo stole the dragon court and poisoned the dynasty, and became the public enemy of everyone in the world, the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, except for the southernmost desolate Jiaozhou and Yizhou, which is surrounded by lofty mountains and mountains, other states have princes to participate in the battle against Dong Zhuo, so Liu Yan sent Zhang Lu to capture Hanzhong to give himself an excuse to cut off the reading power, but he did not think about the possibility of preventing foreign enemies from attacking.

Although Liu Yan is in the twilight, he still has ambitions, but when the strength is enough, he will inevitably go out of Yizhou and attack Jingzhou or Guanzhong, and at present, he is firmly in Yizhou, dreaming of the Son of Heaven, because Nanhua Immortal Chang said that Yizhou can raise the spirit of the Son of Heaven.

When the battle watch written by Xi Zhicai was sent to Chengdu City and presented to Liu Yan, Liu Yan was furious after reading it, and directly threw the battle watch to the ground, pointing at the battle watch and roaring: "Guo Jia Xiaoer, rampant!" It's just nobody's in sight! I will crush you to ashes! ”

In the hall of the state governor's mansion, the ministers and generals stood on both sides with their hands down, and at this moment, they were already stunned when they didn't dare to breathe.

Liu Yansheng was furious, his face turned red, and he didn't notice that his white hair was messy.

Looking around at everyone, Liu Yan gritted his teeth and said: "Guo Jia claims to lead an army of 400,000 to Chengdu, what is your strategy for retreating from the enemy?" ”

As early as three days ago, they had already received the news of the fall of Hanzhong, and at that time they only thought that Zhang Lu had lost his territory carelessly, but they didn't expect Guo Jia to dare to come straight to Chengdu as soon as he captured Hanzhong, and claimed to be an army of 400,000.

Is it a bluff? No matter how bluffing, half of the 400,000 army will be split, and there will be 200,000 people, and then half of the army, at least 100,000 troops.

If he was not sure to attack Chengdu, how could Guo Jia rampantly get off a battle table?

Immediately, someone came out and whispered: "If the lord doesn't want to fight, then he will negotiate peace with Guo Jia, Guo Jia is from a humble background, and he is a prisoner of the imperial court, and the lord is a relative of the Han family. ”

The loss of Hanzhong is a sure thing, and now Chengdu is in an emergency, war and peace, two roads, war, Chengdu originally had 100,000 troops, half a year ago Zhang Lu took away 30,000, and now there are only 70,000 troops, how to resist Guo Jia's claim of 400,000 troops?

Liu Yan stared at the battle table that he threw to the ground with a gloomy expression, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered: "Send someone to negotiate peace with Guo Jia." Wu Yi, there are 20,000 defenders in Jiameng Pass, you will lead the army to guard the Sword Pavilion Road, be sure to block Guo Jia from going south, if he retreats to Hanzhong, if he insists on going south, the narrow road of the Sword Pavilion is where he is buried. ”

Wu Yi, the right-hand man who followed Liu Yan into Yizhou, came out of the column and hugged his fists to receive his life.

Guo Jia had just led the army into Zitong County, less than a hundred miles away from Jiameng Pass, and Liu Yan's envoy for peace had also arrived.

Looking at the letter written by Liu Yan brought by the messenger in his hand, Guo Jia laughed so hard that his teeth hurt, and he threw the letter in the messenger's face, his face suddenly changed, and he was full of anger.

"Is Liu Yan old and confused? Hanzhong is already mine! It's mine, and you want me to retire if you make me the Taishou of Hanzhong? Do I need him to seal it? Go back and tell Liu Yan that if he doesn't raise the city and surrender when our army arrives in Chengdu, he will bear the consequences! ”

The envoy was so frightened that he escaped from the tent, Xu Shu followed in, picked up Liu Yan's letter and shook his head after reading it, and then looked at Guo Jiashi with a solemn expression, and asked, "Lord, is this Liu Yan really sitting still?" ”

Guo Jia said solemnly: "Liu Yan's letter has two purposes, one is to let me withdraw from the army, and the condition is to help me correct my name. Second, show weakness to me, let me despise the enemy, thinking that he will not dare to go to war with me. If Liu Yan sends all the troops in Chengdu to defend Jiameng Pass and Jiange Dao, I'm afraid I can only retreat to Hanzhong. ”
