The next day, early in the morning.

The rising sun has not yet fully risen into the sky, and in the city of Hanzhong, 150,000 Han troops are ready to go. The Han army in Yizhou this time totaled 200,000 people, in addition to the 20,000 tiger warriors taken away by Ma Chao and Wei Yan, there were 180,000 Han troops in Hanzhong City, and Ao Lie left 30,000 people to let Ma Dai temporarily garrison Hanzhong, so that the people who were now assembled and ready to go on the expedition were exactly 150,000 people.

There was no superfluous pre-war mobilization, Ao Lie believed that the officers and soldiers of the Han army under his command had already prepared for a big war, and after a little rectification, he issued the order to go out.

Hanzhong is not far from Jiameng Pass, here is the original Liu Zhang's first line of defense against Zhang Lu, and it is also the first line of Zhang Lu's attack on Liu Zhang, but now things have long been wrong, after the big waves, Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu have been eliminated by the times, Jiameng Pass, has become Ao Lie and Liu Bei, these two people who came into being and dominated by one side of the competition.

After most of the day's march, Ao Lie led 150,000 Han troops to a place twenty miles away from Jiameng Pass, and then set up camp and looked at Jiameng Pass from afar. This distance can already be said to be very close, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a fortress in Yicheng, this is also what Ao Lie deliberately did, he just wants to put pressure on Liu Bei, put pressure on all the Shu soldiers in Jiameng Pass, and tell them, I, Ao Lie, am here, with an army of 150,000.

Standing on the lookout platform in the camp, the outline of Jiameng Pass was already clearly visible, Ao Lie carefully inspected the nearby terrain, and began to deduce the upcoming battle plan in his heart.

Jiameng Pass is located between Guanzhong and Bashu, is the confluence of Jialing River and Bailong River, leads to Hanzhong by land, and goes down to Chengdu; The waterway goes down the Jiangling River to reach Langzhong, an important town in Brazil, which is the place where Liu Bei asked Zhang Fei to guard in history, which shows that the geographical location of Langzhong is very important. And Jiameng Pass connects these several places together, and the importance of geographical location goes without saying. Before and after the pass of Jiameng Pass, the mountains overlap, the dangerous rock cliffs, the trees are bleak, the steep and majestic, it is a dangerous pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Ao Lie once remembered that there were historical materials in later generations to describe Jiameng Pass: the peak is connected to the jade base, the ground is connected to the Jincheng, and the sword pavilion is with Jiameng. According to Jialing and pillow white water, the city is also the hero.

In later generations, Ao Lie also came to Jiameng Pass, but in later generations, the old site of Jiameng Pass, Guancheng, has long been gone, so Ao Lie in later generations, failed to appreciate the majestic style of Jiameng Pass, but did not expect to come to this world after the world, but instead witnessed the majesty of this Xiongguan. It can be regarded as making up for the regrets left by later generations.

However, Ao Lie doesn't have much mind to appreciate the majesty and precipitousness of Jiameng Pass now, the more majestic and precipitous Jiameng Pass is, the more dignified Ao Lie's mind becomes. Because this will bring greater difficulty to the soldiers of his subordinates, and the battle damage will naturally be unavoidable.

Behind Ao Lie, Zhuge Liang and Pang unified left and right. Lined up on both sides of Ao Lie. Zhuge Liang saw that Ao Lie's face was slightly solemn, and said: "Big brother, don't worry, even if Jia Mengguan is a danger. As long as we plan properly, it is not difficult to overcome the Jiameng Pass. ”

Pang Tong said: "That's right, that's right. The operational policy we have drawn up is extremely proper, and as long as there are no major mistakes in the concrete implementation, there will be no problem in winning the Jiameng Pass. ”

The solemn look on Ao Lie's face did not fade because of the persuasion of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, and he said in a low voice: "The plan is perfect, but it is only a plan, there is no plan in the world that is seamless, there is a certain degree of risk, we have indeed avoided the risk to the minimum, but it does not mean that all the potential risks have been eliminated, the grasp of the timing is particularly important, not a point faster, but it must not be a point slower, when the war starts tomorrow, you will stay in the Chinese army, the combat scale of our army, Get an accurate grasp. As for so-and-so, this time, so-and-so will go to the first front line and fight side by side with the soldiers besieging the city. ”

To this day, Ao Lie still retains a very distinct thinking of later generations, in this era, no monarch, especially the Son of Heaven, is willing to throw away everything, go to the front line to live and die with the soldiers who are fighting on the front line, only Ao Lie, is willing to do this, although he insists on refusing to be the emperor, but the regent and the Son of Heaven are not much different, no matter how noble the identity in this world, how high the status, Ao Lie has never forgotten that he is just a young man who is determined to make the world peaceful, his current achievements, has not yet reached the extent that it can be passed on by word of mouth in the world, so Ao Lie still maintains a calm and ordinary heart, and after achieving some achievements that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve like Liu Bei, he immediately cocked his tail to the sky, so that he successively abandoned Pang Tong and Zhang Fei who were talented in determining the country and securing the country.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are already very clear about Ao Lie's temper, and they know that the two of them can't change Ao Lie's decision, since Ao Lie said that he wants to fight side by side with the soldiers on the front line, he will definitely rush to the front line of the siege, and the nine cows can't pull it back, so Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong glanced at each other and didn't open their mouths to comfort Ao Lie. Of course, in the eyes of the two of them, Ao Lie's approach is not a bravery of a horseman, but a manifestation of compassion for the soldiers, and it is also a manifestation of Ao Lie's self-confidence, and it is also an encouragement to the soldiers.

Ao Lie led the Han army to set up a large camp close to Jiameng Pass, and naturally he couldn't hide the ears and eyes of the Shu soldiers in Jiameng Pass, so Liu Bei knew the movements of the Han army at the first time. At this moment, Liu Bei stood at the head of the city of Jiameng Pass, and the civil and military generals in Shu stood on his left and right sides, and the stars guarded Liu Bei in the middle.

Liu Bei was condescending and set his sights on the Han army camp twenty miles outside the pass. The five large camps in front and back, following the setting of the Five Elements Array, are strictly connected together, stretching for nearly ten miles before and after, and at the same time, there is a faint murderous aura. Liu Bei has been in battle for a long time, although he is far from being a famous general, but he still has a vision, he knows that this looming murderous aura is condensed by the high fighting spirit of the 150,000 soldiers of the Han army, which shows that the 150,000 Han troops brought by Ao Lie this time are full of belief in victory, which also makes Liu Bei's heart gradually sink down.

After watching for a long time, Liu Bei suddenly asked, "What if?" Although Liu Bei didn't turn his head, nor did he ask who he was asking by name, Fa Zheng knew that Liu Bei was asking himself what he thought of the Han army's camp.

Taking a step forward, Fa Zheng came to Liu Bei's side and said in a low voice: "The minister's view of the Yan army camp is orderly and orderly, it can be seen that the Yan army must be prepared, and it is unlikely to attack the camp at night. ”

Liu Bei nodded and said: "There will definitely be a fierce battle tomorrow, let the soldiers of the whole army prepare, and check the materials for defending the city later, and there must not be the slightest omission." After a pause, Liu Bei said again: "In addition, the pervasive mysterious assassination force under Ao Lie's command also has to be guarded against, and they must be prevented from making trouble in the pass when our army is fighting with Ao Lie, and it is necessary to send people to strengthen the patrol in the city." ”

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Zhang Song's eyes rolled, and he immediately stepped forward and said: "King, Song Bucai, I am willing to bring a group of soldiers and horses to conduct a detailed inspection of our army's materials, and I am also willing to take on the inspection task tomorrow to ensure that there will be no abnormal sound in the pass." ”

Liu Bei turned his head to look at Zhang Song, and saw that Zhang Song's face was solemn, obviously taking his words to heart, and after a little hesitation, he agreed to Zhang Song's request: "It's okay." Then Yongnian will be in charge of these two things, remember, there must be no mistakes. In Liu Bei's view, Zhang Song is one of the veterans who welcomed himself into Yizhou, and Fa Zheng is the same level of important ministers, not far away, went to Xiangyang to send himself the "Western Shu Topographic Map", his loyalty is naturally no problem, and Zhang Song is also a capable person, his talent is not much worse than Fa Zheng, by Zhang Song such a loyal and talented person to be responsible for the inspection, Liu Bei can also settle down.

After Zhang Song was appointed by Liu Bei, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed in his heart, but his face did not show the slightest abnormality, he still put on a serious and serious look, and replied loudly: "The minister will not disgrace his mission, please rest assured that the king!" Zhang Song's words are clearly showing his determination to live up to his trust, but who the "king" in his words refers to, only Zhang Song knows in his heart.

Maybe it's really the reincarnation of cause and effect, what kind of cause you plant, what kind of fruit you will get, Liu Bei is the best at acting in his life, tears are his most powerful weapon, he relied on his super acting skills, just from a small people in the market who sold straw shoes, all the way to the status of the king of Hanzhong, but he never thought that Zhang Song's acting skills were no worse than his own, Zhang Song won Liu Bei's trust with the same level of acting skills as Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei was relieved to hand over the heavy responsibility of inspection to Zhang Song. Liu Bei's decision laid a decisive foreshadowing for the most difficult trend of this war......

After coming down from the wall, Zhang Song seemingly randomly selected a team of 2,000 people in the army to be responsible for the inspection task that Liu Bei assigned him. This army, Zhang Song has long been ambushed, many of them were originally Zhang Song's disciples and old friends, this is Zhang Song's direct control of an armed force in his hands, is his killer weapon when he is ready to save his life, Zhang Song hides this army very deeply, they are usually scattered in different systems of troops, no one knows that they were originally a gang, even when Yizhou was sold to Liu Bei, Zhang Song did not expose the existence of this army, but now, at this juncture, Zhang Song finally decided to use this force, because he felt that if Yizhou was successfully sold to Ao Lie, no one would be able to shake Ao Lie's control of Yizhou, in other words, Yizhou would be in a stable state for a long time to come, so Zhang Song would do whatever it took to make a contribution to Ao Lie, so that Ao Lie would treat him differently in the future.
