Chapter 204: Critical

Zhang Lang walked into the hall quickly. Zhuge Liang, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang were already waiting here, clasping their fists and saluting.

Zhang Lang walked to the top and turned around. His eyes fell on Zhuge Liang's body: "Kong Ming, has the grain and grass arrived?" Zhuge Liang hugged his fists and said: "I just got the news that the grain and grass will arrive at Lujin Pass in three days." Zhang Lang nodded. Touching his chin and thinking: "At present, all the main forces of the Nanban have gathered near Kunming Lake, and as soon as the grain and grass arrive, they can calm the Nanban in one go!" ”

Zhuge Liang said: "I heard that the rattan armor soldiers of the Ugo country are invulnerable, and you have to be careful when you encounter them." In addition, the Wolf Poison Army is very good at sneak attacks and uses poisons, so they also need to be carefully handled. Zhang Lang said with a smile: "Wolf poison soldiers or something, don't worry, as for the rattan armor soldiers, if they are invulnerable, use fire to attack!" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "It seems that the general has already had a countermeasure." ”

Zhang Lang said in his stomach: I didn't learn from you in the TV series.

A herald hurriedly rushed up to the hall and knelt down and said, "General Qiyu, Shangyong City has been lost, and General Yan Yan has led the army to retreat into Hanzhong City." ”

The four were shocked. Zhang Lang frowned and said, "I didn't expect the worst thing to happen!" Xu Huang and Zhang Liao looked at each other. Zhuge Liang pondered: "We must return to help immediately, otherwise if the whole territory of Hanzhong is lost, things will be in trouble!" ”

……

Yu Yuancheng.

"Report!" A brute officer screamed and ran into the hall. At this moment, Meng Huo, Meng You, Zhu Rong, and Vulture Gu were sitting in the hall. The officer reported: "The king, the messenger of the Han people is here, and he wants to see the king!" ”

Meng Shu was surprised: "The envoy of the Han people? What are you here for? ”

The officer shook his head: "I don't know. ”

Meng You guessed: "Is it here to persuade you to surrender?" Meng Huo's eyebrows jumped, and he shouted, "Then I will kill this messenger and send his head back!" ”

Zhu Rong hurriedly stopped: "Don't be impulsive!" Listen to what the other person has to say before making a decision! Seeing Zhu Rong talking, Meng Yu sat back, nodded and said, "Okay, just listen to what he says." Then he said to the officer: "Bring people in!" The officer ran down as promised, and a moment later brought up a middle-aged man in a Confucian shirt.

The middle-aged man arched his hand towards Meng Shu, and said proudly: "General ...... Han Dynasty"

Meng Shu waved his hand impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, explain your intentions, what does that general of yours want to do?" If you want to persuade you to surrender, I advise you not to open your mouth, or I will kill you!" The middle-aged man smiled, "The king has misunderstood!" I am not here to persuade you to surrender, but for the well-being of the two families! ”

The four people present didn't understand and looked at each other. Zhu Rong asked, "What do you mean by this?" Is the General willing to live in peace with us? The middle-aged man bowed slightly, "Of course!" The general is willing to make a truce and strike with you and not invade each other! The four of them were surprised, and Meng You asked, "You mean, you won't call?" The middle-aged man shook his head: "No! As long as you agree! ”

Meng You hurriedly looked at Meng Shu: "Big brother, since the general is willing to suspend the army, is it ......?" ”

Meng Huo was a little undecided, and his inquiring eyes turned to Zhu Rong: "Queen, what do you think ......?" Zhu Rong said to the envoy: "Since the general is willing to suspend the army, we are naturally willing!" I only hope that the general will be true to his word, and don't break his word! The envoy smiled: "The general is naturally true to his word, the queen doesn't have to worry!" ”

……

After the envoy left, Zhu Rong said to everyone: "Someone must be attacking Lu Bu, otherwise he would never have retreated under the current situation!" The three of them suddenly realized, and Meng Shu said with some complaints: "In this case, why do you want to unify the truce?" Zhu Rong smiled and said, "It's very simple, we have to let Lu Bu deal with others with peace of mind!" The beautiful eyes glanced at Meng Shu: "In this way, there will be fewer Han troops in front of us!" ……”

Meng Huo's eyes lit up, and Meng Huo said excitedly: "As soon as they withdraw their troops, we will immediately attack Lujin Pass!" ”

"Nope! Wait! When Lu Bujun goes far away and starts a war with the other party, we will strike again! In this way, even if Lu Bu wants to return to help, he can't do it! ”

Meng Shu and the three nodded thoughtfully. Meng You said with admiration: "Her Majesty the Queen is really resourceful!" Zhu Rong smiled slightly.

……

On the wall of Lujin Pass, two soldiers are standing guard. The short soldier asked the tall soldier: "Brother, the general and the Tiger Wing Legion are gone, and the main force of our Leopard Tao Army is also gone!" What if the barbarians attacked at this time? The tall soldier shrugged his shoulders: "What do we bother with this kind of thing?" Just listen to the orders and fight! He glanced at the mountains and mountains outside the city, and said proudly: "Even if the barbarians come to attack, don't even think about gnawing this Lujin Pass!" ”

Eyes turned to Luoyang.

Huang Yueying hurried to the hall. The herald immediately clenched his fists and said, "My lord, I have sent an order. Then he took out a letter with a sealed clay in his arms and presented it to Huang Yueying with both hands.

Huang Yueying took the letter, picked it up, took out the letter, and read it carefully. Frowning and thinking for a moment, he said to the herald: "You immediately go back and tell the general that I will act according to the original plan immediately!" ”

The herald answered and hurried away.

Huang Yueying glanced at the letter in her hand and said loudly: "Call General Ma Chao!" ”

……

Zhang Lang led the 100,000 of the Tiger Wing Legion and the main force of the Leopard Tao Legion of 60,000 people, totaling 160,000 troops, and marched north into Hanzhong. As soon as he entered Hanzhong, he received information that Sun Jian's army of more than 300,000 troops was besieging Hanzhong City, and the surrounding counties of Hanzhong had been lost. Zhang Lang did not dare to delay, and immediately ordered the army to advance into Hanzhong at full speed.

And at about the same time, Sun Jian also received the news that Zhang Lang led his troops and horses to Hanzhong, and the offensive against Hanzhong became even more fierce! Hanzhong City is like a flat boat in the stormy waves! All day and night, the sky was obscured by flying stones and crossbow arrows, Sun Jianjun's shouts were endless, and the bloody battle on the city continued! Yan Yan and his Pingnan army are about to be unable to resist!

……

Night fell again. At this moment, the fierce battle continued, and Sun Jian did not seem to have the slightest intention of withdrawing his troops.

"Lord, don't you collect troops?" Zhou Yu asked.

Sun Jian held the hilt of his sword, stared at the tragic battlefield in front of him with his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Lu Bujiu is coming, there is no time!" They won't arrive as soon as tomorrow, and I'll be able to capture Hanzhong tonight!" Turning his head to the generals, he ordered: "Everyone obeys the order, go all out to attack the city, and those who dare to slack off and retreat will be killed!" The generals' hearts were in shock, and they hugged their fists and promised, and they all rode down to urge the soldiers under their command! The offensive has become more violent, and the city has been lost everywhere, after all, the Pingnan army is no better than other Lu Bu armies, and it has begun to break and flee!
