The shock of Zhang Xiu in Hanzhong appeared on Duan Xuan again, the huge siege tower completely made Duan Xuan useless, and the defenders of Hangu Pass were afraid, Duan Xuan chose to give up Hangu Pass. On the tall wall of Hangu Pass, Chen Lin and Jia Xu stood together, looking at Duan Xuan and his four thousand soldiers and horses who were rushing and fleeing from the west. Chen Lin looked back at the gradually disappearing shouts of killing in the pass, Chen Lin smiled, and said to Jia Xu: "Wenhe, you said that if there was such a thing at that time, could Bishui Pass be captured by the allies?" Jia Xu didn't answer, but said something else: "My lord, there is no moat in Hangu Pass. ”

Chen Lin lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Wuying came back and said, Wentai is also gone, Wenhe, I'll go back to Hanzhong later, I've been away from home for too long." Chen Lin's sudden words made Jia Xu unable to adapt for a while, and Chen Lin also gave up? But it is true that this is what Chen Lin said, the battle of Hangu Pass, although it scared Duan Xuan away, but at least no less than four thousand of the six thousand recruits died. Chen Lin suddenly wanted to return to Hanzhong with the remaining three thousand old troops, it's time to end it, a Chen Lin will never be able to beat Chang'an, Sun Jian was persuaded by Lou Gui after the defeat, what does Chen Lin want.

Jia Xu lowered his head and thought for a while: "Lord, continue to fight, we will return to Hanzhong from Wuguan." Chen Lin raised his head suddenly, Wuguan? There are also Zhang Ji's nearly 10,000 troops there. Chen Lin looked at Jia Xu in shock, hoping that Jia Xu could speak in detail. Jia Xu spread out the map, pointed and said to Chen Lin: "Lord, look, this is Wuguan, this is Hangu Pass, this is the Lu family, our army immediately sent troops to the Lu family, presumably the Lu family still doesn't know that our army has captured Hangu Pass." Our army left Hangu Pass to Liu Xuande, if Liu Xuande wants to gain a foothold in the south of Hongnong River, Hangu Pass is an excellent natural danger to the west of Liu Xuande, and Liu Xuande will not give up Hangu Pass easily. The whole army of our army went south and took the Lu clan by surprise, and the Lu clan was in the hands of our army, and Zhang Shidu of Wuguan became a lone army, unless he dared to cross the mountains from the Qingni Pass back to Lantian and then back to Chang'an. If he dares, 10,000 troops will pass through, and it would be good if there were still half of them who could return to Chang'an. ”

Chen Lin looked at the map seriously, the county seat of the Lu family, Hongnong, is located in the gorge between Hangu Pass and Wuguan, as long as the Lu family is defeated, it is equivalent to cutting off the route of Zhang Ji to Tongguan, and Zhang Ji of Wuguan will become a lonely army. The west of Wuguan is the endless mountain, there is a place called Qingni Pass can also pass through, enter Lantian, return to Hanzhong, but the army enters the mountain, there are many dangers, and everyone will take such a risk. Chen Lin said: "Wenhe, if our army defeats the Lu clan, and Wuguan Zhang Shidu leads his troops to attack the Lu clan, our army may be able to resist it?" ”

Jia Xu: "My lord, Wuguan Zhang Shidu's 10,000 army has 4,000 cavalry, which shows that Zhang Shidu can't go to the Qingni Pass, and the cavalry is not good at attacking the city, our army has at least four or five thousand soldiers and horses to the Lu family, and because Hangu Pass is in the east, it is impossible to send troops to the south to attack our Lu family, so it is impossible to capture the Lu family that our army is defending by virtue of Zhang Shidu's Wuguan people and horses. ”

Chen Lin: "In this way, wouldn't Zhang Shidu* be put into a Jedi, and there would be no benefit to our army at that time, and the trapped beast would still fight Ah Wenhe." ”

Jia Xu: "My lord, when the Lu clan is captured, I am willing to take a trip to Wuguan and say that Zhang Shidu will be surrendered." Jia Xu's words were not shocking, Chen Lin was also startled, and hurriedly said: "Nonsense Wenhe, how can you let Wenhe go to that dangerous place, you can't do it." "Go to Wuguan to persuade Zhang Ji, this risk can be calculated, Jia Xu's proposal scared Chen Lin enough.

Jia Xu looked back at the busy Hanzhong soldiers and horses in the Guan, as well as Liu Beijun, smiled, looked up and said to Chen Lin: "Lord, Xu is just an unsatisfactory scholar in Xiliang, if you don't have to meet the lord, how can you have today's demeanor, this is the time to serve the lord, how can you not do your best." Besides, Xu is a timid person, if he is not sure, he will never take risks, our army defeated the Lu clan, Zhang Ji will have no way out, and Xu will just give him a clear way. ”

Chen Lin looked at Jia Xu's serious expression, and was moved in his heart, and at the same time, Chen Lin also hoped that Jia Xu could succeed, so he said: "Okay, I want Zhou Cang and Huang Yan to go with Wen He, Wen He can't refuse." After the two finished speaking, Chen Lin happened to see Liu Bei coming over, and whispered to Jia Xu: "You can't cheapen Xuande for nothing, you have to pay for it." Jia Xu lowered his head and smiled: "Lord, I heard that Liu Xuande got a hundred good horses the day before yesterday, why don't you ask for this, the lord must not let Liu Xuande know the intentions of our army, otherwise he will not want our army to leave." ”

Chen Lin laughed and greeted Liu Bei: "Xuande, Xuande has helped a certain one in this battle." Liu Bei didn't dare in a hurry, now Liu Bei has obtained several counties east of Henan and Hangu Pass, and he has a faint majesty, but for Chen Lin, Liu Bei doesn't dare to hold it up. Although Chen Lin has only more than 4,000 soldiers and horses now, if he really turns his face with Liu Bei, there is no good fruit for Liu Bei to eat. The two talked about some key things, and sometimes laughed, Chen Lin: "Xuande, I want Xuande to garrison Hangu Pass, I don't know if Xuande is willing?" Liu Bei was really overjoyed, Hangu Pass was Liu Bei's heart disease, seeing Liu Bei, a person who rarely showed his mood, he couldn't help but be happy, Chen Lin said again: "Xuande, a certain will not stay in Hangu Pass, just leave now, fight with Dong thief, Dong Jun has many cavalry, I heard that Xuande has nearly 100 good horses, I don't know if Xuande is willing to borrow a certain to fight against Dong Jun." ”

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and was extremely reluctant in his heart, this hundred good horses were sent by a wealthy businessman from Zhuo County to support Liu Bei, this, Liu Bei gritted his teeth in his heart, Chen Lin was no one else, the entire Hongnong was given to Liu Bei by Chen Lin, it can almost be said that Liu Bei, so Liu Bei couldn't refuse. Chen Lin calculated that Liu Bei would not say no, and at the same time, all the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong went west to Hanguguan, so it was absolutely impossible for Liu Bei to send troops to follow Chen Lin in order to garrison such an important place as Hanguguan. In this way, when Chen Lin returns to Hanzhong from Wuguan in the future, he will not have to face Liu Bei's pleas, and whether Liu Bei can hold Hongnong and Luoyang depends on his ability.

The Hanzhong army was stunned, just captured the Hangu Pass, and wanted to enter the army, but now three thousand of the four thousand army are the old Hanzhong department, and they have never hesitated to Chen Lin's order. Liu Bei was on the wall of Hangu Pass, watching Chen Lin's army slowly drive out, Jian Yong said: "Lord, what is Chen Taishou going to do, four thousand soldiers and horses dare to go to Tongguan, the siege tower can no longer take Tongguan, the enemy army must be prepared." ”

Liu Bei glanced back and said, "Bo Zhi is going back to Hanzhong." After speaking, regardless of the horror and incomprehension of Jian Yong and others, he walked down the city wall, and in the future, this will be his Liu Xuande's alone, a hundred horses, even if it is Liu Xuande's gratitude to Chen Bozhi, Liu Bei thought.

It was impossible to rush to the Lu clan that day, but Chen Lin did not let the army rest, but ordered the whole army to march quickly. As a result, in the middle of the night, the Hanzhong army arrived at a place three miles outside the city of Lu, Chen Lin saw it, and ordered the whole army to rest in place, the horses did not leave the saddle, the people did not take off their armor, and an hour later attacked the city in the dark night.

As Jia Xu said, the Lu defenders were defenseless, and even Duan Xuan, who had escaped from Hangu Pass, could not have imagined that Chen Lin would attack so quickly, and the direction turned out to be the Lu clan. The 4,000 Hanzhong army instantly attacked the Lu family, except for more than 1,000 county soldiers, there were only hundreds of soldiers in the city, and Chen Lin captured the Lu family without any suspense. At dawn, Chen Lin's movements stunned Duan Xuan in Tongguan and frightened Zhang Ji in Wuguan even more. In order to witness the rumors, Zhang Ji's nephew personally brought 2,000 cavalry to come to Lu's at noon, and Chen Linhan's army had completely mastered Lu's county at this time. Zhang Xiubiao is a martial artist, and he has good marksmanship, and he has the title of the king of guns in the north many years ago, and he is now Chinese New Year's Eve two years old.

Zhang Xiu saw that the Lu clan had changed to the banner of Hanzhong, and knew that the Lu clan was really captured by Chen Lin, but Zhang Xiu was conceited and brave, and there were 2,000 cavalry on the side, so he ran to the city and shouted to invite the battle: "Zhang Xiu and Zhang Wenwu are here, who will send them to death?" Zhang Ba and the others in the city were so angry that they croaked, and Chen Lin hurriedly drank it. turned back to Jia Xu and said: "Wenhe, this person is Zhang Shidu's nephew, his father died early, and he has always been with Zhang Shidu, like father and son. Jia Xu: "Yes, it is said that this person is the king of guns in the north, under the tutelage of Master Tong Yuan, with outstanding marksmanship, not to be underestimated, I am afraid that no one in our army is his opponent." ”

Chen Lin and Jia Xu have been talking about how Zhang Xiu is good, and they said that the general of the Hanzhong Dynasty was red-faced, only to see that the two of them only cared about praising Zhang Xiu, and Huang Zhong shouted: "Lord, military advisor, why do you underestimate me and wait, see that Zhong captured that little child." After speaking, regardless of Chen Lin's opposition or not, Dong Dong ran down to the city, leading hundreds of people from the headquarters out of the city. Chen Lin and Jia Xu looked at each other and laughed, please don't be as excited as a general. At this time, the generals in the city were eager for Huang Zhong to take down that person in one round, and he was hateful.

Huang Zhong is white beard, Zhang Xiu saw Huang Zhong, and said that Huang Zhong is an old man, laughing, contemptuous in his heart, Huang Zhong is upright and in his prime, where can he stand such treatment, Chen Lin Jia Xu's words have made Huang Zhong hold back his belly, and now Zhang Xiu's eyes make Huang Zhong have an urge to run wild. Screaming and hitting the horse rushed over, Zhang Xiu didn't care, and casually raised the gun to block, but Huang Zhongjin's back knife was resolute and powerful, and Zhang Xiu was smashed hard, if it wasn't for Zhang Xiu's riding skills, he would have fallen off the horse. At this time, Zhang Xiu's heart was horrified, and he suddenly became concentrating, and turned around to fight with Huang Zhong. suddenly remembered the matter of the three heroes vs. two heroes that was circulated before, isn't this person that Nanyang Huang Hansheng. Zhang Xiu was panicked and timid, and his marksmanship couldn't help but be messy, and he was about to be cut down by Huang Zhong when he saw it. Suddenly, Zhang Xiu made a mistake and rushed straight back to the cavalry formation, never daring to turn back.

Huang Zhong turned around and saw the two thousand cavalry rushing around, raised his eyebrows and shouted three times, just put away his sword and returned to the city.

I don't know what will happen to Zhang Ji's lonely army trapped in Wuguan, Jia Xu can really say that Zhang Ji will be lowered, who knows.
