Yuan Shang's guess Liu Bei's intention was very accurate, if Liu Bei was here, he would definitely say that Yuan Shang was roundworm!

There is no way to do this, because in history, the ultimate goal of Liu Bei's Jingzhou group's strategic depth is Xichuan, and at this point, Yuan Shang belongs to the prophet and has opened a cheat.

Therefore, Yuan Shang reacted before Tian Feng, not because he was smarter than Tian Feng, but because Yuan Shang knew more than Tian Feng, and there was nothing to be proud of.

The terrain of Yizhou is dangerous, there are mountains and rivers, Liu Bei wants to go up the river in Jingzhou and seize Liu Zhang's foundation by force, to be honest, it is more difficult than asking him to make a pleasant goat on the toe of straw shoes.

What's more, Liu Zhang and he still belong to the same clan, and this relationship is only for everyone, and they have to take into account three points.

Therefore, according to Tian Feng's conception, if Liu Bei wants to develop his scheme, he will either go south to take Eastern Wu, or go north to Zhongzhou to take Cao Zhi.

Can be both. But Yuan Shang gave it all to it.

"Lord, you said that Liu Bei took Xichuan, Xichuan is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, far less flat and easy to attack than Eastern Wu and Zhongyuan, why do you insist on thinking so?"

Yuan Shang said with a smile: "Liu Bei's strategic goal is not unification for the time being, but separation!" Jingzhou four battles, not conducive to defense, Eastern Wu after three generations, and Jingzhou has always been evenly matched, Liu Bei may not be able to fight down, north to attack Cao Zhi, he will immediately face the situation of direct confrontation with us, these are not advisable for Liu Bei, his mind, only to seize Sichuan, dominate a corner, with the risk of self-protection, when the time is ripe in the future, and then follow the example of Gaozu, out of Qinchuan to win the world. ”

Tian Feng touched the beard on his chin, as if thinking about Yuan Shang's words.

"Do you have any credentials for what you're talking about?"

Yuan Shang gave him a blank look: "All the strategic movements of the enemy are all studied and guessed by us, where can I turn over the evidence for you?" ”

"And what do you want to do next?"

Yuan Shang lowered his head. Looking at the information that Gao Ran had recently given him about the resettlement of the newly relocated 100,000 residents of the Three Kings Tribe, he thought about it before he spoke.

"Here in Hebei, there are too many government affairs that need to settle foreign immigrants, if Liu Bei wants to enter Sichuan at this time, I don't have time to deal with him now, it is better to send an envoy to Guanzhong first, let Zhao Yun of Chang'an send troops south, first find a way to seize Hanzhong, and choke the throat of Xichuan, so as to come." In the future, when Liu Bei entered Xichuan, I sent troops from Hanzhong and directly killed him and Liu Zhang! ”

Tian Feng thought about it and nodded that it was feasible.

******************************

When he was alive, Zhao Yun, the first martial general under Yuan Shang of Hebei, was ordered to sit in Chang'an, the governor of Guanzhong, lead the troops of Yongzhou, and control Yan Xing in Liangzhou.

After Yuan Shang was appointed as the Great General of Sima. Nominally, with the responsibility of taking full charge of the Han Court's armaments, it will be easy to seal the military position.

As a result, Zhao Yun was justifiably canonized by Yuan Shang as the governor of Yongliang soldiers and horses, and controlled all military affairs in Guanzhong. Yuan Shang also played Liu Xie, the son of heaven. Request to canonize Zhao Yun as the Marquis of Maoling.

At this time, Zhao Yun commanded Yongliang, and there were more than 60,000 Yongzhou soldiers under his command as the cornerstone, and among them, there were 3,000 Wuji battalion cavalry specially assigned by Yuan Shang as the backbone of his personal guard. There are also Hao Zhao, Zhang Ji, Wen Hui, and Wang Ling under his command. Wen Ji, Sima Fu, Jia Kui, Gao Rou, Wang Xiong, and Du Ji were ten of his cronies and helped him manage Chang'an and state affairs.

Zhao Yun admired these ten talents, and jokingly said that these ten arms were his ten carved arrows.

Among these ten carved arrows, Hao Zhaonai was an excellent general who came to serve when Yuan Shang's first recruitment order was issued, and he was the best at defending the city, needless to say.

The rest:

Du Ji is the former Cao Cao appointed to protect the Qiang lieutenant, leading Xiping Taishou, after the Guanzhong was broken, he was recruited by Yuan Shang to surrender, good at judging cases, many political achievements, good diplomacy, and the government decree "is often the most in the world".

Zhang is a native of Feng Yi Gaoling, Mao Cai, in addition to the new Feng Ling, the performance of the three auxiliary first, when Zhong Xuan and Ma Chao went north and merged with the state, this person contributed a lot, and after the Guanzhong was broken, he saw the situation clearly and returned to Shun.

Wang Ling is the nephew of Situ Wang Yun in the past, after Wang Yun's death, he fled back to his hometown, and then should be Yuan Shang's recruitment list, and served as a partial general in the army.

Wen Huizi Manji, a native of Qi County, Taiyuan, originally intended to vote for Cao Cao in the past, but because of his friendship with Sima Lang in Hejian, he was dissuaded by him and recommended to Yuan Shang's account.

Wen Ji is Cao Cao's cavalry general, the battle of Guanzhong and Cheng Yu and others were captured alive, and then surrendered, Yuan Shang saw that he was quite brave, so he was assigned to Zhao Yun's account as a general.

Wang Xiong, the word Yuanbo, Langya Linyi people, good at governing the army, with a broad mind of soldiers, once participated in the fierce battle of Mobei, the meritorious service is not low, but the temperament is a little impatient, more emphasis on killing, now Zhao Yunzhong Army Zuo Zhonglang.

Sima Fu is Sima Yi's third brother, the word Shuda, quite virtuous, decent style, much stronger than his second brother, after Yuan Shang, was arranged in Guanzhong to assist Zhao Yun, manage the cultural and educational affairs of Guanzhong.

Jia Kui is a native of Hedong, for Yuan Shang to apply for the second recruitment order when the order was issued, political and military talents are outstanding, Zhao Yun praised his style of famous generals, in addition to himself, can be the best candidate for the general leadership.

Gao Rou was also a candidate for Yuan Shang's order to seek merit, and was good at the law, adjudicating and strategizing, and impartially enforcing the law.

At this time, Zhao Yun had strong troops, military advisers, good generals, internal assistants, and ten carved arrows with their own strengths.

Zhao Yundong made the Son of Heaven Liu Xie and Cao Zhi frightened, the west shocked the Qiang soldiers and the foreign domain, and the south frightened Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.

Compared with Lu Bu, who occupied Xuzhou back then, the current Zhao Yun has surpassed him in all aspects!

The princes of the Quartet, no one can help but look sideways at this tiger that is hovering in the pass.

However, since the occupation of Guanzhong, Zhao Yun has not fought a real major war except for dealing with internal affairs, pacifying the displaced people, cultivating tuntian, recruiting troops and horses, and training soldiers.

Zhao Yun was born as a military general, and since he entered the command of Yuan Shang, he has not been idle for a day in his crusade to the east and west. Even when he was recuperating for three years, he was also ordered to lead his troops out of the desert to fight Xianbei and resist the remaining thieves, and went to Liaodong to quell the bandits.

Now that it has become a force of its own, but it can't go into battle, Zhao Yun didn't say anything in his heart, but the palm of his hand kept itching.

Until today, Yuan Shang finally sent an order ordering Zhao Yun to go on the expedition.

The moment he received the order, Zhao Yun was so excited that he almost didn't turn over in place, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly summoned his ten carved arrows to come and discuss.

Letting everyone circulate the order sent by Yuan Shang, Zhao Yun said with a smile: "I have been sitting and lying in Guanzhong for nearly two years. Today I finally waited for the lord to issue a military order! The lord asked me to raise the troops in Guanzhong, go south to attack Zhang Lu, and seize Hanzhong, which was used as a throat to spy on Xichuan, what do you think? ”

Among them, Wang Xiong had a violent personality and was the most belligerent, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "Since it is the lord who issued the order, why should Governor Zhao ask me and others." Thinking that Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is just the leader of the Wudoumi Sect, why is it difficult to break it? Wang Xiong is not talented, and he is willing to ask for 20,000 elite soldiers. Attack Hanzhong! Open the throat of Shu for Zhao Dudu. ”

After Wang Xiong's words were finished, Wen Hui smiled.

Among the ten carved arrows, Wen Hui is the first think tank that Zhao Yun relies on the most.

"General Wang is brave and brave, but he doesn't know the world. In the opinion below, at this time, it is not appropriate to create a second army. ”

Zhao Yun turned his head and asked, "Why did Manji say this?" ”

Wen Hui said to Zhao Yun: "The Grand Governor." Everyone in the world says, the land of Guanzhong, fertile fields for thousands of miles, the country is rich and the people are strong, this is indeed true, but that is in the past, not now, today's Guanzhong, has long ceased to be the grand occasion of the year, since the death of the first emperor, Guanzhong has been destroyed and slaughtered by Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, and more than ten warlords of all sizes are fighting here, Cao Cao and the lord fought here again, the land of Guanzhong has been repeatedly chaotic, the people's livelihood is withered, and the people are seven or eight out of ten, and the governor has recruited troops and horses in Chang'an for two years, although the elite under his command, However, there are only more than 60,000 regular soldiers and horses in Chang'an, and Yongzhou has six counties and one country. ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he was silent in thought, and suddenly said: "You say this, what does it have to do with me sending troops to attack Hanzhong?" ”

Wen Hui hurriedly said: "Of course it has a lot to do with it!" One of the reasons for the correction is that there are too many wars, and the second is that because of the frequent wars, most of the displaced people have migrated to Hanzhong, enriching the population of Hanzhong, making its land quite strong, and the terrain of Hanzhong is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is not easy to requisition. ”

When Wang Xiong heard this, he said: "Alas, Wen joins the army, your words are too petty!" Yongzhou is empty of fertile fields for thousands of miles, but the land is vast and sparsely populated, since the rich households in Hanzhong are just captured and immigrated into the Guanzhong Tuntian rich households think that they are for their own use! The lord is in Hebei, didn't he also move a lot of foreign tuntian from Mobei? ”

Wen Hui smiled helplessly, and said in his heart, Is it so easy for you to be an immigrant? Just open your mouth? In order to move to the foreigners to enrich domestic demand, I don't know how much effort and years it took to do the road, you husband opened his mouth to come, it is so easy to say, you are an immigrant is a dog walker?

"General, the main thing is that there is no shortage of soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, the terrain is sinister, Zhang Lu is not incompetent, he is the leader of the Wudoumi Sect, he believes in Lao Tzu's non-action thought, Taoist pure philosophy, does not govern the army by force, but can firmly control Hanzhong for so many years, which shows that it is capable and not easy to be defeated."

Zhao Yun thought for a while, raised his hand and said: "It's okay, it's true that Zhang Lu occupies the dangerous terrain, but my Chang'an soldiers and horses are all elite, don't look at only 60,000, but after my practice, all of them are one as ten, not this governor boasts, my 60,000 armor soldiers, even in the face of 200,000 people, also have the power to fight, Zhang Lu has a good name, but he has no ability to lead the army, I will win this time!" ”

Wen Hui opened his mouth and wanted to persuade him, but saw Zhao Yun suddenly smile at him.

"Mankey, this governor knows that you have good intentions, but this battle can not be fought, I Zhao Yun is not the lord's descendant, the second is not a relative of the Yuan family, the third is not a Hebei wealthy family, in the past was just a general, and at the beginning of the surrender, I did not obey the lord, and he looked like a heart-to-heart, now I have become the lord's foreign vassal, sitting in Chang'an, controlling Yongliang Erzhou, those Hebei family ministers are afraid that they will have already slandered me Zhao Yun out of the bubble, this time if I disobey the lord's order to send troops, they will not let me go, will say that I Zhao Yun supports the army and respects himself, If you don't listen to orders, the lord just has the heart to protect me, in the face of such pressure, what do you let him do? ”
