In June and July, Zhang Baiqi took Hanzhong, and Zhang Lu went to Huanzhou to live in the Jiujiang and Bachuan areas for the time being.

It was completely beyond the expectations of Jiang Zhe, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You and others, and Zhang Baiqi, who originally thought that it would take more than a year to get out of the quagmire in Hanzhong, ended the war in June and July.

Hanzhong, vested Xishu!

Although Zhang Lu and Liu Yan's father Liu Yan had always been at odds, Liu Zhang later detained Zhang Lu's mother's family and used it to coerce Zhang Lu to guard and protect him, and Zhang Lu sometimes held a grudge.

As early as August and September of the second year of Jian'an, Zhang Lu used troops against Bashu as appropriate, intending to force Liu Jian to release his mother and family, but after Liu Zhang sent people to guard Jiameng Pass, Zhang Lu could not advance an inch.

If he wants to attack, he is worried that his mother in Xichuan will be killed by Liu Zhang; wants to withdraw the army, but there is unwillingness in my heart. After a difficult decision, Zhang Lu held on to Xichuan in Jiamengguan for half a year.

Around July, Zhang Baiqi wanted to take advantage of the battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to seize Cao Cao's land of Chongzhou and Yuzhou, but unfortunately he was blocked by Jiang Zhe outside the Bishui Pass and could not advance an inch.

frequently used tactics, but never took the Bishui Pass, but instead asked Jiang Zhe's people to burn their own grain land. Michi.

As a last resort, Zhang Baiqi had no choice but to withdraw his troops.

Leaving a few generals to hold Luoyang and other places. Zhang Bai then rode to Hanzhong with troops.

Hanzhong, also known as Dongchuan, is in a dangerous place, can attack, retreat can defend, and Dongchuan has enough money and food, and its people are rich, for this reason, it attracted Zhang Baiqi to snoop.

I have to say that Liu Zhang is actually not unthinking, at least when Zhang Bai rode to attack Hanzhong, Liu Zhang sent people out of Jiameng Pass, wanting to seize Dongchuan and other places.

It's a pity that compared to his father's curtain, Liu Zhang's vision is really narrow, and he never won Dongchuan Hanzhong, but on the contrary, he helped Zhang Baiqi a lot.

As early as when Liu Barrier intended to send troops, Wang Lei of Yizhou, Li Hui and others who joined the army repeatedly persuaded Liu Zhang. At this time, not only could not send troops to seize Hanzhong, but also sent people to help Zhang Lu.

Indeed, compared to Zhang Bai riding this hungry wolf, Zhang Lu is at best a gatekeeper.

First of all, in terms of ability, Zhang Lu is not as bold as Zhang Baiqi, and he has a handle in Xichuan's hands, what can he toss? You must know that Zhang Lu has used troops against Xichuan for nearly a year, but Xichuan only sent 8,000 soldiers to Jia Mengguan, which was enough to refuse Zhang Lu from the door.

The two sides have been holding each other for a long time, but the soldiers who died in the battle are only one or two thousand, why?

Zhang Lu didn't dare to coerce Xi too much, "He was just showing his dissatisfaction."

However, Zhang Baiqi is different, first of all, Xichuan has no idea about Zhang Baiqi's details, preferences, and personality, and secondly, Zhang Baiqi is an "outsider.!"

In recent years, Xichuan Wenwu has almost figured out Zhang Lu's character, and everyone just laughed at his threat to set foot in Xichuan, and reluctantly sent 8,000 soldiers to guard Jiameng Pass. It is also enough to make it difficult for Zhang Lu to move forward.

To tell the truth, the current Donggang Hanzhong is just a subsidiary of Xichuan Bashu, blocking the north for Bashu.

It's a pity that Wang Lei, Li Hui and others persuaded them. Liu Zhang didn't comply, because he still didn't understand why his father Liu Yan didn't take Dongchuan in the first place, so that Zhang Lu "raised tigers for trouble" and harassed Xichuan every time.

From time to time, I hear some people talking that Liu Zhang is far away from his father, maybe right now, Liu Zhang wants to make a career. Unfortunately, he chose the wrong time!

Waiting for the west "soldiers and horses out of Jiameng Pass, that Zhang Lu was fighting hard Zhang Baiqi, and finally blocked Zhang Baiqi with a yellow scarf, but suddenly heard that the Xichuan soldiers and horses in the rear were attacking, and couldn't help but be angry and anxious, and sent his brother Zhang Wei to lead 10,000 soldiers to resist.

Originally, the number of troops was insufficient, but after 10,000 people were transferred, Zhang Lu was even more stretched and took care of one or the other. In just four and five months, half of Hanzhong was lost, and Zhang Lu was defeated and retreated.

At this moment, even Liu Zhang saw that something was wrong, and remembered the persuasion of his advisers Wang Lei and Li Hui, and hurriedly ordered to stop the "movement of troops to the east", on the contrary, he sent troops to help Zhang Lu repel Zhang Baiqi.

It's a pity that it's too late, Zhang Baiqi is now in the sky.

On the other hand, Zhang Lu hated Liu Barrier and was very harsh to Xichuan soldiers and horses, the same. The soldiers of Xichuan looked down on the soldiers and horses of the Eastern "Hanzhong, saying that they were coalition forces, but in fact they were fighting on their own.

Within three months, when the number of troops was less than that of Dongchuan and Xichuan, Zhang Baicai defeated Zhang Lu and Liu Ji one by one and occupied the entire territory of Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu retreated to Yizhou. Liu Zhang guarded the Jiameng Pass.

On the other hand, Zhang Baiqi wantonly gathered grain and grass. The intention is unclear, perhaps there is the meaning of "going south to west". Perhaps, there is also the intention of regaining Yaozhou, and upon learning of this, Xiahou Yuan, the guard of Bishui Pass, immediately sent an urgent report to Cao Cao, and transferred Zhongmu and Changshe soldiers and horses to Bishui Pass, and waited for the battle.

However, what is surprising is that after Zhang Bai rode to Hanzhong, there was no news.

It's not that he cares about anything, but Zhang Baiqi is sick, and he is not lightly ill."

As the leader of the last Yellow Turban of the Great Han. is also stationed in Ma Chao, Pang De, Ma Dai and other peerless generals, I have to say that Zhang Baiqi is a hero.

It's a pity that just because he was born in a yellow scarf, how can the world's families respect their own family, how can they help him? Even if Zhang Baiqi supported the deposed emperor Liu Bian to succeed to the throne, it was the same, one day for the yellow scarf, and the whole life for the yellow scarf.

Without the help of any counsellors. Zhang Baiqi studied the one hand, and captured Hanzhong on the other. Among them, it is naturally indispensable to use the magic passed on by Zhang Jiao to help.

The Book of Heaven has three volumes and six volumes, and Zhang Baiqi has learned some of them, but he has never learned them all, even if he has not learned the subtleties.

Heavenly art, that is, demon art in the eyes of outsiders, even Jiang Zhe, Zhuge Liang and other people who hold the Heavenly Book in their hands use this technique, and they will lose their lives, not to mention Zhang Baiqi,"

It is said that the illness is not light, but in fact, I am afraid that Yangshou has been damaged too much.

"It's finally come to this, Master. When the apprentices take Xichuan again, they will have the strength to wave the army in the Central Plains."

"White riding, don't be strong

"Master

"Handsome?"

"Huh?" Suddenly came back to his senses, what Zhang Baiqi saw was Wang Dang's faintly worried gaze, rubbing his sour eyes, Zhang Baiqi asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Dang opened his mouth, but finally gave up, clasped his fists and whispered, "The three generals Ma Chao, Pang De, and Ma Dai have come to return to their lives!" ”

"Oh" Zhang Baiqi nodded, raised his hand and said, "Please let them in!" ”

"Yes!" Wang Dang responded with a fist, turned around and walked out of the tent, and in less than a moment, he led Ma Chao, Pang De, and Ma Dai inside.

I saw Ma Chao and the other three walking into the tent and subconsciously glanced at the main seat in the tent, and suddenly showed some doubt in their eyes, and glanced at Wang Dang inexplicably.

It seems that he saw the doubts in the hearts of the three people. Wang Dang coughed and whispered in an inexplicable tone. "Why don't the three generals worship when they see the marshal?"

Handsome? He was that

Ma Chao's face was shocked, and he looked at the person in the main seat in the tent in disbelief, only to see that the person was full of white hair and looked tired.

"That's it." Zhang Baiqi, who was on the main seat, waved his hand and said tiredly, "What are you waiting to tell me?" ”

Recalling Zhang Baiqi's very domineering words and deeds, Ma Chao was speechless for a while, hugged his fists, and said silently, "Half a year ago, the handsome commander called the last general to attack the important land in Hanzhong. Today, Hanzhong has been conquered. The last general will come to restore his life,"

"Oh, I see," Zhang Baiqi seemed to remember his head and said in a condensed voice, "thanks to Meng Qi, you and the other three of you asked for it in a roundabout attack on Hanzhong." So much so that Zhang Lu couldn't calm down and fight with me, so he should be credited! ”

"Don't dare" Ma Chao lowered his head again, and then, he looked up at the person in the seat with some hesitation, and his mind was a little indescribable for a while.

To tell the truth, Zhang Bai rode Ma Chao not only thinly, but also said to be extremely thick, not only to list Ma Chao as the history of Liangzhou Thorn, but also to ask him to hold a male soldier, such trust, even Ma Chao was a little flattered.

"Alright". Zhang Baiqi seemed to be a little tired, waved his hand and said indifferently, "Meng Qi, you go back and rest for the time being, and we will use troops against Xichuan as appropriate in the future." Hello Hello get ready! ”

"No!" Ma Chao clenched his fists, hesitantly glanced at Zhang Baiqi, but opened his mouth but finally said that he would wait and leave! ”

"Well, go ahead".

frowned and watched Ma Chao and the three of them walk out of the tent. Wang Dang said in a low voice, "Marshal, right now, we are going to use troops against Xichuan, and the soldiers and horses will naturally have to be rectified." It's better to call General Ma."

"No need" waved off Wang Dang's words, Zhang Baiqi smiled and said, "Wang Dang." Are you afraid of this person? ”

I saw that Wang Dang's face was stunned, and there was a faint shame in his eyes, and he said in a low voice, "The last general thinks that the handsome man treats the horse too thickly, and now the handsome is seriously ill, if this person makes something."

"You're too worried!" Zhang Baiqi said with a smile.

"This" is" bowed his head, Wang Dang said in a low voice, "Marshal, the last general heard that these days, there is something wrong in the army"

"Wrong?" Zhang Baiqi smiled, and Ye Yu said, "You said that because I am seriously ill, some guys in the army can't bear it?" Rushing to be the big boss? ”

"No, no, no, forgive them and don't dare to make a mistake, the last general is just worried, these days, the handsome man is seriously ill, if it is a small mess at this time, wouldn't it be bad? The last general thought that the military power in the hands of the generals should be reduced as appropriate, and the military power should be personally commanded by the commander, so that even if Xiaoxiao intends to make trouble. I can't figure it out."

"Excuse me, don't suspect in employing people, and now that the battle is imminent, reducing the general's military power is not conducive to the morale of the army" said, Zhang Baiqi smiled and patted Wang Dang's shoulder, his eyes were sharp, and he said sonorously, "Don't worry!" I'm not dead yet! ”

Feeling the domineering in Zhang Baiqi's words, Wang Dang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, lowered his head and said, "The handsome man is naturally healthy, but the last general is too worried." However, there is one thing that is not clear in the end, why does the marshal value Ma Mengqi so much? .

"Because he's a general, no, he's a handsome talent!" Zhang Baiqi chuckled, then paused. Zai Fu was stunned and said, "Besides, he is like me in the old days, don't worry, he has no reason to betray me."

"This, yes!"

"I'm a little tired, take a break, and stand down!"

"No". With a fist salute, Wang Dang respectfully withdrew from the tent.

"Alas". He let out a long sigh. Zhang Baiqi slowly stretched out his right hand, stared at it for a while, and muttered. "I can't just die like this, I still have a great cause to finish! Master, may you have a spirit in heaven. Help Bai Qi to ride,"

At the same time, Ma Chao and the three of them were walking in the camp, only to see Pang De looking left and right, and said in a low voice, "Meng Qi, I still can't believe it" Fang Cai is a handsome? How come?.

On the other side, Ma Dai also nodded again and again. I was very puzzled and said, "Brother, handsome age."

Reluctantly picking up a little smile, Ma Chao said hesitantly. "I guess I have used witchcraft a lot, our army can occupy Hanzhong so quickly, Dashuai, and the contribution is indispensable."

As Zhang Baiqi's confidant general, and often meets with Wang Dang, Ma Chao will know about this, and it is also common sense.

"Hex?" Ma Dai's eyes widened. As if recalling the scenes of the war, he said in amazement. "What my brother said, but the eight hundred fierce soldiers when he fought Baocheng at the beginning? A tireless, undead monster? I thought it was an elite soldier secretly hidden by the commander! ”

Yellow Turban Lux! Ma Chao nodded wordlessly.

Ma Dai, who still had a bit of a child's state of mind, said happily when he heard this, "I don't want the handsome man to understand such thaumaturgy." Mo said: "The world is also at your fingertips!" ”

"You don't know what's going on!" Ma Chao sighed when he heard this, looked up at the sky, and said lightly, "The so-called things that are beyond the reach of human beings will damage Yangshou, and the two of you only look at the appearance of today's handsome." I know it's dangerous,"

"How come," Ma Dai's face suddenly changed.

Pang De beside him looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "Meng Qi, I have a handsome face. It seems that time is running out, and God will help us to wait, and when he dies, I will wait."

"I know!" Ma Chao let out a low snort, attracting a sideways look from the nearby yellow scarves.

"Meng Qi?" Pound called out in confusion. But seeing Ma Chao exhaled slightly, he said tiredly. "Lao Lingming and the second brother will settle the soldiers under their command, I am a little tired, find a place to rest."

"Well! Pound seemed to see something, nodded, and pulled Ma Dai, who opened his mouth and wanted to say something, and left.

Leaning on the wooden fence of the camp, Ma Chao stared at one place in a daze.

Zhang Baiqi, is there not much time?

He glanced up at the fluttering "Zhang" in the camp. Word flag, white on yellow background,

When he first voted for the yellow scarf, Ma Chao thought. This "Zhang", the word must refer to Zhang Baiqi, but after he and Zhang Baiqi got along for a while. Ma Chao found that this "Zhang." The word flag, perhaps referring to Zhang Jiao,

Great teacher, Zhang Jiao!

I turned my head to look at another big flag, and saw that it read "The world is good." Four words, how can it not be the original Zhang Jiao threatened, "The year is in Jiazi and the world is auspicious." This?

"Stupid!" Ma Chao muttered two words, but his heart was a little heavy.

On July 3, Zhang Bai rode to reorganize his troops and horses. Inviting the generals of the army to discuss the war is actually just to discuss the future policy, whether or not to use troops against Xichuan immediately.

Ma Chao supported Zhang Baiqi to "use soldiers" for the west. Although Pang De has some opinions about this, he has never violated Ma Chao's intentions.

However, the generals led by Wang Dang advocated temporary cultivation and strong soldiers and horses for the future.

After all, Wang Dang thinks that if he continues to fight, he will really not be able to hold on to the marshal in the army, and a small number of people think that he should take advantage of the war between Cao Cao and Liu Bei and Jiangdong to seize Chongzhou, Yuzhou, and Bingzhou......

In short, there was chaos in the tent, and no one could convince anyone.

In the face of such a chaotic situation, Zhang Bai rode Gu to close his eyes and recuperate, and the generals in the tent quarreled, but he was thinking of countermeasures.

Cultivation must be the first to be ruled out, I have waited for so many years, how can I still wait?

Then the subsequent question is, whether to attack Cao Cao or Liu Zhang!

Attacking Liu Zhang's west, Zhang Baiqi thought that it would not be a problem, but if he attacked Cao Cao, there was one person under his account who was not easy to deal with!

Jiang Zhe, Jiang Shouyi!

It seems that the only way to avoid the strong is to take the weak,

After thinking about it, Zhang Baiqi slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that the generals in the tent were still arguing, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said lightly with a slight anger, "I told you to wait and think about countermeasures, not to ask you to wait for a quarrel." Is it too neglectful of me? ”

The general in the quarrel suddenly changed his complexion, just because Zhang Baiqi was not angry, the tent was almost silent, I have to say that in the Baibo Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Baiqi's prestige is incomparable.

"Smack!" Slammed the table, Zhang Baiqi snorted coldly, "I have made up my mind, take Xichuan!" ”

"No!" The generals in the tent looked at each other and responded with their fists clenched, but the king sighed secretly in his heart.

It's not that Zhang Baiqi doesn't know that Cao Cao is currently at war with Liu Bei and Sun Ce, and like Cao Cao, Zhang Baiqi doesn't want to ask him to intervene when he makes a move.

If you take Dongchuan and evil Zhang Lu, it is naturally needless to say that secondly, Bashu will not stop there. Dongchuan Hanzhong is the gateway of Xichuan Bashu, Zhang Baiqi has now taken Hanzhong, how can Bashu be called

Heart?

Bashu sent troops to regain Hanzhong, that is for sure, if Cao Cao was provoked at this time, and Cao Cao was asked to send Jiang Zhe to send troops, Zhang Baiqi did not want to see this situation.

To tell the truth, Zhang Baiqi didn't want to meet Jiang Zhe by himself, especially at this critical time, but well, if Cao Cao was defeated, Zhang Baiqi would still be happy to sit back and enjoy his success, and raise troops to take the annexation, Henan, Chong and other states, the premise is that Cao Cao is defeated, Jiang Zhe has no available soldiers!

Obviously, Zhang Bai rode the capable man of Bashu in the west, and within half a month, he was blocked from entering the Jiameng Pass!

The one who blocked Zhang Bai's riding in Jiameng Pass was just a tooth general and a county magistrate in the place.

Yajiang's surname is Yan Mingyan, and the word Heber; The surname of the county order is positive, and the word filial piety is straight"

It was these two people who led 10,000 Xichuan soldiers to firmly defend the Jiameng Pass, causing tens of thousands or even 100,000 white waves and yellow scarves to wander outside the pass.

At the same time, after Cao Cao received the battle report from Xiahou Yuan, he immediately ordered Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan to consolidate Jingzhou and Chongzhou to prevent Zhang Baiqi from taking the opportunity to attack.

However, more than ten days later, Cao Cao received a report from Xiahou Dun, saying that Zhang Baiqi used troops against Xichuan

After getting this report, Cao Cao did not dare to be careless; Jiang Zhe, Xun You, Jia Xu, Sima Yi, and Mi Heng were immediately summoned to discuss countermeasures, but Guo Jia had not yet arrived in Hanyang.

After reading and reading this report carefully, Xun Yu said in a condensed voice, "Lord, it seems that Zhang Baiqi doesn't want to fight with our army

"Hmm!" Cao Cao nodded and said solemnly. "However, Zhang Bai rode to take Xichuan, it is also extremely tricky, now he has a place in Hanzhong, bordering the two states of Xiliang and Sili that he occupies, if he is asked to take Xichuan again, I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with in the future!"

"What Cao Gong said is very true" Cao Cao spoke, Jia Xu arched his hand, smiled and said, "I thought in the next place." At present, relying on our army's water division, I am afraid it is not enough to deal with Jiangdong, if you train the water army here, send another army to block Zhang Bai from riding into Sichuan, and take Hanzhong, Yizhou and other places, this is the place where Gaozu started, the people are rich and full of food, and it is a pity not to take it! ”

Jia Xu's voice fell, but someone over there laughed and said, "I don't dare to agree with what Lord Jia said!" ”

Cao Cao, Jiang Zhe and the others turned their heads to look, it was Sima Yi, there was no doubt.

"Oh?" Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and said playfully, "In the next words, what's wrong with making Zhongda dare not agree?" ”

Somewhat weakly avoiding Jia Xu's gaze, Sima Yi secretly glanced at Cao Cao, who was paying attention to him. He said in a deep voice, "Gong Cao, I think it is below." Zhang Baiqi wants to take Xichuan, if he is not asked to take it, now that our army is confronting Jiangdong, how can he divide his troops and distract himself? ”

"Tell him to fetch it?" Cao Cao frowned. Secretly shook his head.

Indeed, if Zhang Bai is asked to ride Xichuan, then Xiliang, Hanzhong, and Bashu will be connected into a line. In the future, it is obviously extremely difficult to attack, so let him take Nishikawa. It's just a matter of raising tigers.

"Exactly!" It didn't seem to have seen Cao Cao's eyes, Sima Yi arched his hand and said to himself, "I heard that there are many portals in the Bashu family. Zhang Bai rider. Thieves too! This alone is enough for the Bashu family to help Liu Jiyu resist Zhang Baiqi"

Glancing at Sima Yi in surprise, Cao Cao put away a little contempt for Fang Cai, and said in a condensed voice, "What if Zhang Baiqi takes down Xichuan Bashu?" "Wouldn't that be better?" Sima Yi chuckled, and Zhengse said, "I just mentioned it below, there are many portals of the Shu family, and Zhang Bai can't ride a mere yellow turban thief, how can the Bashu family surrender their identity and help Zhang Baiqi?" Naturally, there are frequent disasters!

If Zhang Baiqi takes care of many families, Xichuan will not be worried, and Zhang Baiqi will be tired of coping; If Zhang Bai rides the family, the Bashu family will be furious. At that time, only Cao Gong will be under the banner of righteousness. "West" is naturally looking at the wind and descending

"Hey!" Before Sima Yi's words fell, Mi Heng sneered and said mockingly, "You say that we have a good reputation in the eyes of the family?" ”

"Huh?" Hearing Mi Heng's sneer, Mare Yi was immediately speechless, too, Cao Cao's reputation in the eyes of the family is not necessarily very good.

Seeing that Cao Cao seemed to be a little embarrassed, Xun You smiled and said, "Jia Changshi and Sima Changshi are both reasonable, and they are righteous, how can such talents not recommend them to the lord?"

It seemed that he saw Xun You's eyes, Jiang Zhe smiled dryly, but saw Cao Cao laughing at himself. "It's a brilliant idea, but for me. I'm afraid those families won't be welcome."

When Xun You heard this, he immediately interjected, "Lord, our notoriety is just that when I was in Xu Du earlier, I punished a little troubled family, so I was interpreted by the world's family as a family. The lord is heavy and cold, and the family is light, so there is a lot of resistance, and I think it is below. To take the world. There is no need for the family to help each other" Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly stopped.

Jiang Zhe naturally understood that Xun Yu took care of his own family. For fear of being misunderstood by Cao Cao, he said with a smile, "What Gongda said is extremely true!" ”

Originally, there were still some doubts about the purpose of Xun You's words. Seeing Jiang Zhe interject now, Cao Cao suddenly smiled at the suspicion in his heart, after all, for Xun Yu's matter, although Cao Cao said that he had a faint sense of guilt in his heart, but in general, he deliberately forgot and didn't want to mention it.

Why is the day table so cold? The light family, but I am afraid that the tail of the family will not fall off and affect the worried people. As for talents, where is there no talent in the world?

"That's it," waved his hand. Cao Cao Lang smiled and said, "Zhang Baiqi wants to take Xichuan, so he asked him to take it, and I will wait for the first weight." It's in Koto, but don't slack off because of this, if it's within this year. We failed to take Jiangdong, but Zhang Baiqi captured Xichuan, then our army will be attacked on both sides, and the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

After hesitating, Xun Yu arched his hand and said hesitantly, "I think that there are a lot of talented people in Bashu." Although Liu Jiyu is not enterprising enough, he has more than enough self-preservation. In the next opinion, Zhang Baiqi may not be able to take Xichuan. At that time, my army may have some trouble, if Zhang Baiqi cannot take the west, "he will turn around and attack our side, so that we will not be able to fight Jiangdong wholeheartedly." Lord, you must not be guarded! ”

"Well, Gongda has a point!" Cao Cao thought so, frowned and said, "But right now, Liu Bei's troops in Xiakou and Zhou Yu's troops in Sanjiangkou, our army's naval army has not been completed, how to take Jiangdong?" ”

"Why don't you take the summer pass by land? If Xiakou is obtained, Jiangxia is at your fingertips, although Jiangdong is a strong naval army, but our army is victorious in land warfare, why abandon the strong and follow the weak? Mi Heng on the side said lightly.

"By land?" Cao Cao, Jiang Zhe, and Xun You glanced at each other and realized something.

"But," glanced at Mi Heng in surprise, Jia Xu hesitated and said, "Jiangxia also has a navy. I'm afraid I won't be asked to cross the river so easily. Liu Bei has been defeated by our army several times, and he will not be negligent in the slightest about precautions. Crossing the river with an army. It will take a little time, and if Liu Bei and others find out their whereabouts and cut off their back roads, wouldn't it be self-defeating? ”

Seeing that it was Jia Xu who spoke, Mi Heng left a little respect in his mouth, stepped forward, spread the marching map on the table, pointed to one place and said, "We are waiting for the troops to be stationed in Hanyang, but we are crossing the river from the area south of Wulin, how can Liu Bei know our thoughts?" ”

Seeing this, Cao Heng continued, "Zhou Yu's troops are at the mouth of the Sanjiang River, far away from here, and the river is on guard, and at the moment it is Liu Bei patrolling with a small Jiangdong fleet, at that time, our army might as well call the Cai Mao fleet that turned its back on the enemy out of the water village and lined up on the river to attract the attention of Jiangdong and Liu Bei, at that time, only one soldier and horse will need to cross the Yangtze River lightly from the upstream section of the place, even if it is the area south of Wulin. and the river water army stormed Xiakou, so that. Xiakou is controlled on both sides, how can he resist my army? ”

"Brilliant plan!" Cao Cao stroked his palms and laughed, and said approvingly, "Jiangdong must not have imagined that while our army was training the navy, it secretly sent troops to force the Yangtze River and attack Xiakou in a roundabout way

"But it's extremely dangerous" Xun You frowned, shook his head and said, "Xiakou is a heavy place in Jiangxia, and there is no need to say that the defense is on guard, at that time." If the strong attack fails, this army will be surrounded by Jiangxia soldiers and horses. Our army can't rescue in time, isn't it ten dead and lifeless? ”

Everyone in the tent was stunned, but they saw Mi Heng sneering and said, "Although it is dangerous, if it is used skillfully, it is enough to be a hundred thousand sailors here, hum!" With such a water army, even if there are more than 100,000, what is Jiangdong afraid of? ”

"Zhengping, Hugh is presumptuous!" Jia Xu snorted heavily, and Mi Heng didn't dare to say any more, and then hurriedly said to Cao Cao, "This person is a madman." I hope that Cao Gong will not have the same knowledge as him."

"Rest assured." Cao Cao shook his head secretly, it seems that the one who knows himself best is still righteous. You see, he didn't say anything!

"People, although they are fanatics, but the plan is a clever plan, keep righteousness, according to your opinion, how sure is this plan?"

"Hold it" Jiang Zhe hesitated, shook his head and said, "I can't tell, but I also think." If you can deceive Liu Bei and Jiangdong soldiers. Maybe give it a try! ”

"Humph!" Looking at Mi Heng, Sima Yi pursed his lips and said, "This kind of plan is false and difficult to implement, in my opinion, it is already very good to be sure, first of all, in order to avoid startling the snake, I am afraid that there are only three or four thousand soldiers and horses crossing the river." At most, it is not more than 5,000, and if it is more, it will be difficult to hide the whereabouts, 5,000 soldiers and horses. It is necessary to take the summer mouth under the nose of Jiangxia. Ridiculous!

That madman, are you a decoration for tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jiangxia and Xiakou? Or are you a decoration for nearly 100,000 Jiangdong soldiers in Sanjiangkou and Wuchang? You have a plan, dare to ask you, do you dare to go? ”

"Why don't you dare?" Mi Heng said with a sneer. "Give me 5,000 soldiers and horses, and I'll take Xiakou to show you!"

"Haha, that's arrogant!" Sima Yi laughed angrily and said in a loud voice, "Okay, you go." I'll bet you won't get it back! ”

"Okay, where are you waiting for this? Hugh's presumptuousness! Finally, Jiang Zhe couldn't look at it anymore.

"It's okay," Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand. But he saw that the three disciples under Jiang Zhe, as well as Li Xian, who helped Cheng Yu deal with affairs in Xu Du, were not talents for a hundred miles, and Cao Cao had always been open to talents, especially these were still Jiang Zhe's disciples, even if Jiang Zhe was in front of him, Cao Cao would not be angry.

"It's a good plan, but it's not easy to deceive Liu Bei and Jiangdong

"It's a bit of a balancing.

"Humph!" With a sneer, Sima Yi stretched out his hand and pointed to the marching map, and Zhengse said, "If you want to attract the attention of Liu Bei and Jiangdong, it is not difficult to get there, why don't you take this place!" ”

"This is," Xun You glanced at. I secretly said in my heart.

"Shi Yang?" Cao Cao looked up at Sima Yi suspiciously, but saw Sima Yi nodding and said, "Exactly!" Cao Gong and look, Shiyang's important place, if I can wait for Shiyang, first, I can suppress Jiangxia and Xiakou, and second, Shiyang to the east, is the mouth of the three rivers, I can wait for a roundabout way, or attack Zhou Yu from the land, such an important place, Jiangdong will naturally not sit idly by. ”

"That's right" Jia Xu looked Sima Yi up and down, and the leader echoed and said to Cao Cao, "A few days ago, I found that Shiyang's troops were weak, so I suggested that Situ take Shiyang and use it to persecute Jiangxia and Xiakou, but I didn't want Jiangdong to send reinforcements early. ”

Hearing what Jia Xu said, Xun Yu frowned. Hesitantly said, "If you want to take Shiyang, you must use the water army, now on the river, the Jiangxia water army and part of the Jiangdong water army have joined forces to cross the river, if we have any rash moves, I am afraid that Liu Bei and Zhou Yu will not sit idly by, and the river will be a bitter battlefield at that time."

"What's the fear," Cao Cao shouted with a sneer. "Our army moves on three sides, and we don't worry about Jiangdong being immortal and Liu Bei not dying!"

"Meng De really wanted to send troops to cross the Yangtze River. A roundabout attack on Xiakou? Jiang Zhe still has some concerns. Not! Cao Cao nodded, and Zhengse said, "Relying on the navy alone is not enough to deal with Jiangdong. I'll wait for the waterway to go hand in hand, "Shouyi, but I have to borrow your three great talents to use it" Speaking of which, Cao Cao subconsciously caught a glimpse of Mi Heng. The words were stunned, after all, Mi Heng's impression in Cao Cao's heart, except for talent, was very poor!

"Where, where!"! Jia Xu, Sima Yi, and Mi Heng made a move, and Jia Xu hesitated. He stepped forward and said, "I am willing to send it from the Lord!" ”

Compared with Jia Xu, Sima Yi was happy in his heart. He had already taken the opportunity to show his talent to Cao Cao, and now that he had this opportunity, he had already stepped forward and bowed, "Sima Yi, I am willing to be sent from the lord!" ”

The rest of Mi Heng only bowed his hand with little interest and was perfunctory.

Everyone immediately deliberated for a while, and changed the strategy of Mi Heng slightly, from attacking the east and west to attacking from three sides and advancing by water.

First of all, Jiang Zhe led a small part of the naval army. and his headquarters soldiers and horses, crossing the river to attack Shiyang.

Secondly, Cao Cao personally commanded the naval army, blocking Liu Bei and Zhou Yu's naval army on the river, and buying time for Jiang Zhe.

Here, they are called Sima Yi and Mi Heng. He commanded 5,000 soldiers, and took advantage of the great battle in the north to forcibly cross the river from the area south of Wulin, conceal his whereabouts, and take the opportunity to take Xiakou.

If it happens. Jiang Zhetun soldiers in Shiyang, and used troops against Sanjiangkou by land to contain Zhou Yu; Sima Yi and Mi Heng occupied Xiakou and attacked Jiangxia together with the naval army personally commanded by Cao Cao. Defeat Liu Bei, Zhou Yu and others one by one.

If it succeeds again, Cao Jun will be able to gain a foothold in Jiangxia and use it as a springboard to enter Jiangdong by water.

I have to say that in the strategic phalanx, Cao Cao's side does not have a few flaws, if it is used properly, if it is this year's Ran, Jiangdong can be determined!

It's just that there are capable people in Jiangdong!

On July 19, Jiang Zhe led 20,000 lunge cavalry, as well as tigers and leopards and more than 100 large ships, intending to force a landing in the Shiyang area.

From a distance, I saw a fleet of ships slowly coming out of the Cao camp in Hanyang, patrolling with the Jiangxia ship general Wen Ping, and Zhou Yu's Jiang Qin, who immediately turned the bow of the ship and attacked Jiang Zhe's fleet.

At this time, in accordance with Cao Cao's order, Cai Mao led the navy out to block the ships of the Sun and Liu coalition armies for Jiang Zhe's fleet, and Jiang Zhe took advantage of this opportunity. Go to Shiyang and land.

After all the tigers and leopards landed, Jiang Zhe immediately sent Cao Chun and nearly 3,000 tigers and leopards to patrol around, but there were Jiangdong soldiers and horses.

Subsequently, Jiang Zhe called Zhang Yun, the deputy commander of the navy who sent his group, to unload the two rushing carts and twenty catapults and return, while Jiang Zhe himself led more than 20,000 Cao soldiers to Shiyang.

Now is the time to employ people, Jiang Zhe, who was originally full of talents, now only Zhao Yun, Cao Hong, and Cao Chun are available, and the rest of the generals have been given their respective tasks by Cao Cao.

Zhao Yun is the commander of Jiang Zhe's guards, and he is Cao Cao's fierce general who is in danger in the depths of Jiang Zhe, and he never leaves Jiang Zhe's side; Cao Hong is now a bare-bones commander, and his soldiers have all been merged into the navy, and his temper is too easy to be irritable. It's hard to be on your own, so it's so. became Jiang Zhe's pioneer general; Needless to say, Cao Chun is not to mention that as the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry, sometimes he is more like the commander of Jiang Zhe's guards than Zhao Yun.

With three thousand tigers and leopards riding on the wings, Jiang Zhe's soldiers and horses are looking at Shiyang in a mighty way, and they are not afraid of startling the snakes.

It's a pity that Shiyang is too guarded by Zai. It's precisely the type that doesn't know what's interesting.

Lu Xun, a young man who is only sixteen or seventeen years old, if he is interested, he will not drink back the envoys of the little overlord Sun Ce one after another, and almost have a bad relationship with Sun Ce.

And the other deputy general in Shiyang City is also an uninteresting type, Lu Meng, who is brave enough to be brave!

As early as when Jiang Zhe landed on the shore, he had already been discovered by the soldiers patrolling the riverside and reported back to Lu Xun. After all, don't say that Jiang Zhe doesn't want to hide his tracks. Even if you want to, more than 20,000 people, how to hide? It is better to be above board, and it can also be used to deter the Jiangdong soldiers in Shiyang City.

And Lu Xun, who had to ask about this, was taken aback.

"I didn't expect that my Shiyang would have to bother that adult to come in person, how can I Lu Xun do it."

"Huh?" Obviously, the scout who worshiped in front heard Lu Xun's words, and he was a little confused. Surprised.

"Could it be that I fought Cao Jun too hard in the last battle?" Lu Xun laughed, but saw Lu Meng, who was clinging to the wall with his hands folded, glanced up at him and sneered.

Lu Xun didn't think it was a pestle at all, looked at the soldier in front of him and smiled, "Well done, you go down!" ”

"No!" The scout clenched his fists, stood up and respectfully retreated.

got up and walked to the window, Lu Xun stroked the window sill, frowned and said, "I'm just Shiyang, but Lao Jiangzhe came in person, could it be that there is something else wrong with it?" ”

"What are you going to do?" Lu Meng, who was leaning against the wall, closed his eyes slightly and said lightly.

"How?" Lu Xun turned around and said with a smile, "Naturally, the soldiers came to cover the water and earth."

"Oh?" Lu Meng opened his eyes and glanced at Lu Xun.

Shiyang City was originally not far from the river bank, but although it was not far, it was also thirty miles away, for this reason. Jiang Zhe led Cao Hong to lead the infantry and siege equipment, Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to respond from Pance, and he only took a few hundred cavalry to Shiyang with Zhao Yun to check the movement in the city.

However, just looking at it from a distance, what he saw surprised Jiang Zhe.

I saw that on Shiyang City, the banners were everywhere, and countless Jiangdong soldiers patrolled the city, and the drums in the city were rumbling, and there was a scene of slaughter.

"It seems that the other party has learned of the arrival of our army!" Looking from afar, Jiang Zhe said lightly.

Frowning and looking at the scene on Shiyang City, Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Situ, I look at this city, although it is small but solid. I'm afraid it's not easy to attack."

"Hmm" Jiang Zhe nodded and said solemnly, "Only wait for Zilian's army to come!" ”

At the same time, on Shiyang City, Lu Xun and Lu Meng were also looking out of the city.

"Found it!" With a chuckle. Lu Xun pointed his finger and said with a smile, "That adult." I'm afraid it's just one of them

Frowning and glancing, Lu Meng said lightly. "What are you going to do?"

I saw Lu Xun chuckle and said eloquently. "There are friends from afar, and I don't want to say that since I am too guarded for this place, I should be hospitable, General Lu. I have three hundred soldiers with you, and you dare to lead your army out of the city. Defeat that Jiang Zhe for a while? "Are you crazy?. Lu Meng glanced at Lu Xun inexplicably, and said strangely, "The other party has hundreds of cavalry, you give me three hundred soldiers, and you still tell me to defeat Jiang Zhe for a while?" General Ben didn't hear me wrong, did he?

"Of course". Zhi Xun smiled slightly, and Zhengse said, "Three hundred soldiers, enough!" ”

Lu Meng opened his mouth, as if he remembered something, and frowned silently.

After a while, the general alert situation of Shiyang was discovered, and Jiang Zhe and the others were about to retreat temporarily, when suddenly they caught a glimpse of Shiyang's city gate wide open.

"What's going on?" Jiang Zhe Le Ma stopped at the original. Looking at Shiyang City suspiciously, he muttered, "What does Taishou want to do?" ”

Zhao Yun stared intently, but saw countless cavalry slowly moving away from Shiyang City, it seemed that there were thousands of people, he was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly shouted, "Situ, I'll retreat quickly!" ”

Heard

I saw that with the sound of drums, countless cavalry poured out of Shiyang City, roaring towards Jiang Zhe and the others.

How can the ear?!

Jiang Zhe was shocked in his heart, he originally thought that Shiyang was not a city, at best, seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses were enough, but just looking at the cavalry in front of him, there were no less than three or four thousand people. I am afraid that there are at least one or two thousand soldiers and horses in the city.

"Retreat! Withdraw! As soon as he pulled the reins of Jiang Zhe's war horse, which was a little sluggish, Zhao Yun immediately ordered a retreat.

If there is only one person here, Zhao Yunzi is not afraid of these three or four thousand cavalry, he will leave if he wants to go, and he will fight, depending on the situation, but the key is that Jiang Zhe is here!

He was chased by three or four thousand cavalry. Jiang Zhe and his group of hundreds of cavalry turned around and retreated, almost panicking.

After all, Jiang Zhe originally only planned to come to explore the situation in Shiyang, and only brought a few hundred cavalry. How is it an opponent of three or four thousand cavalry?

After fleeing in panic for half an hour, Jiang Zhe and his party got rid of the cavalry in Shiyang City.

Le Ma paused, Jiang Zhe said with a wry smile. "I didn't want to be just Shiyang, there were so many cavalry. After leading troops for several years, it is the first time that he has fled in such a hurry,"

Seeing this, Zhao Yun said with relief, "In the past. Situ always beat the enemy and fled, and when the two Cao generals arrived, the last general was willing to be the vanguard and take Shiyang for Situ! ”

"Heh, so it's up to Zilong." Jiang Zhe chuckled, then frowned and looked behind him. He hesitated and said, "The cavalry didn't chase after you?" ”

"No!" Zhao Yun shook his head, but saw Jiang Zhe frowning, and muttered in his mouth, "Strange, isn't it just for us to probe Shiyang and guard it, so why we sent troops to attack us?" ”

After that, Jiang Zhe thought for a moment and said intently. "Go back the way you came!"

"Huh?" Zhao Yun was stunned, a little at a loss, but when he saw Jiang Zhewang looking at the road, his face was contemplative.

I always feel that something is wrong.

"Go back the way you came!" "Yes!"

At the same time, on Shiyang City, Lu Xunzheng was overjoyed.

Glancing at Lu Xun lightly, Lu Meng sneered and said, "It's just that he deceived Jiang Zhe with some little tricks, so that he made you happy?" ”

Lu Xun waved his hand and said with a smile, "I have heard for a long time that Jiang Zhe is far-sighted and has no wrong insight, since I can deceive him twice, why can't I rejoice?" ”

"Humph!" Lu Meng closed his eyes and leaned against the wall. said lightly, "Maybe a little trick will not be easy in the war, but it will make Jiang Zhe raise his vigilance, do you really think that a little trick can make Jiang Zhe retreat without a fight?" ”

"Say no!" Lu Xun smiled.

Suddenly, the soldier beside him pointed in one direction and shouted, "My lord, those light horsemen are back again!" ”

"What?" In Lu Meng's sneer. Lu Xun stared intently at the outside of the city, only to see that in the distance outside the city, the hundreds of cavalry appeared in Lu Xun's eyes again.

"I just said it, Jiang Zhe can fight well, and he has experienced countless battles, how can you be scared away with just a little trick!" Sneered. Lu Meng opened his eyes slightly, and said mockingly, "Then Lu Taishou, but do you want to bluff Jiang Zhe again?" ”

"No need!" Lu Xun said lightly, looked at the outside of the city, and said calmly, "One time is enough, and many times will inevitably make Jiang Zhe see the flaws!" ”

"Hey!" Lu Meng chuckled.

When Lu Xun was talking to Lu Meng, Jiang Zhe once again set foot not far outside Shiyang City, looking around, he always felt that something was wrong.

"Strange" Zhao Yun was on guard for a long time, and finally didn't see any soldiers and horses coming out of the city, and said in surprise, "Just now I came to investigate, there are soldiers and horses in the city to pursue, why didn't you go out of the city to pursue us this time?" ”

"Who knows," Jiang Zhe said with a smile. Gaze intently at Shiyang City in front of him.

Jiangdong originally had more warships, fewer warhorses, and three thousand cavalry, but I am afraid that it would not be so easy to get together for a while, but in this small Shiyang City, there are three or four thousand soldiers and horses, which is too unbelievable!

Wait, this situation and this scene, as if I have encountered it somewhere,

That's right, Hanyang!

When pursuing Liu Bei in Hanyang!

Recalling the original scene, Jiang Zhe took out the piece of paper that he had never lost from his arms, and secretly pondered in his heart.

Listening to Zhong Da's words, the Book of Heaven is divided into three volumes and six volumes, and the upper volume of the Heavenly Book is obviously obtained by Zhuge Liang, as if it is called "Six Ding Liujia". And the next volume of the heavenly scroll "Qimen Dunjia" was written by me. The next volume of the earth volume "Hundred Battles and Strange Strategies" was obtained by Feng Xiao, so, there are also the next volume of the earth volume, and the upper and lower volumes of the human volume are unknown,,

Shiyang Taishou in front of him, I'm afraid that there is a good chance that he has one of these three volumes, but it is not which one.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhe immediately stepped forward and slowly walked towards Shiyang City.

"Situ?" Zhao Yun didn't know why, so he was shocked, and immediately turned his horse to catch up.

Standing a stone's throw outside Shiyang City, Jiang Zhe shouted loudly, "In Xia Jiang Zhe, dare to ask Shiyang Taishou to see him!" ”

"Huh?" Lu Xun, who was talking to Lu Meng in the city, was stunned, took a few steps forward and frowned, and then said with a smile, "It turned out to be Jiang Situ." Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! In Xia Lu Xun, he was ashamed to live in Shiyang Taishou, "Dare to ask Situ, I have repeatedly come to my Shiyang to test, do you have to use troops in this city?" ”

Lu Xun?!

It turned out to be him!

Jiang Zhe frowned, feeling anxious in his heart, and when he heard the words in the city, Zhengse said, "Exactly! However, in order to take care of the people in the city, I advised Lu Taishou to withdraw his troops as soon as possible, and I would not chase after him, and it would be dawn tomorrow. I should use troops against Shiyang, and I hope that Lu Tai will guard himself well, don't make mistakes! ”

"Oh?" Lu Xun smiled and said, "Could it be that Jiang Situ deceived me Shiyang soldiers."

"Exactly!" interrupted Lu Xun's words. Jiang Zhe shouted in a deep voice, "Do you dare to ask those three or four thousand cavalry to go out of the city and attack me?" ”

Suddenly, Lu Xun's face changed slightly, and Lu Meng beside him was also moved, and said in surprise, "Then Jiang Zhe actually saw through it at a glance?" ”

"It's not that you can see through it," he looked solemnly out of the city. Lu Xun frowned and said in a low voice, "But it's not a little different from seeing through, whether I send it or not, he will eventually understand that there are many cavalry, but it's just illusion" Tsk underestimated Jiang Zhe, but had he seen it once, so quickly let him see the flaws? ”

Just when the two of them were abandoning the discussion, Jiang Zhe under the city knew it in his heart, and secretly said that this was the case. Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "Let's go, Zilong, I'll go back and camp first." ”

"Yes!"

Looking at the more than 1,000 Cao soldiers outside the city, they left in a big way. Lu Xun's face gradually became solemn.

Tomorrow siege city,,

Fan: I'm so tired, but I've finally made up for it.

Everyone guessed well, it's almost over after writing Chibi, it's not that I'm dragging the plot, but burying the pit. 》《
