Chapter 660: Zhang Song asks to see

Jia Xu bowed and said yes, after this change, Guo Da's influence in the Yuzhou army has become smaller, as the state pastor of a state, the power is very great, if you have an army, it will become a constraint on the imperial court, and the elite soldiers in the army enter the standing army, which means that Guo Da has lost his military power, after these soldiers enter the standing army, it is not a Guo Da can be mobilized, they will only be loyal to Jia Rong and Liangguo, not a party member.

"Zhao Yun, Guo Da and others have meritorious service, and they should be rewarded."

"Wenhe, it's okay to salute openly in the future, just meet as ordinary friends behind your back."

Jia Rong's words moved Jia Xu again, Jia Rong is now a saint, the honor of the Ninety-Five, and a courtier can reach such a status, this life is enough.

After the capture of Nanyang County, the Xiliang Army seemed to have no movement, which also reassured Guan Yu in Jiangling City and Wei Yan of Nanjun, the battle of Nanyang County that day quickly spread throughout Jingzhou, the strength of the Xiliang Army once again touched the Jingzhou family, the Cao Army was already very elite, and they seemed to be a little weak in front of the Xiliang Army, although this time the Xiliang Army was a little more bullied, but the real lone wolf soldiers, but to a certain extent, changed the situation of the battlefield, corpses were everywhere, blood flowed like a river, cruelty, These eight words cannot be described concretely.

The decisive battle between the two armies in the field is very cruel, and the real you die and die, with your own strength, there is no fancy.

After Zhuge Liang of Jingzhou put down the matter about Nanyang County, he began to plot the big thing of Yizhou, as expected, within a month, Liu Yan will be killed, and Liu Zhang has just inherited his father's business, not enough to serve the public, and Zhang Lu's own ability is good, under the encouragement of Yizhou officials and the family, there will definitely be a war, and Liu Zhang will also ask Liu Bei for help, and then it is the best time to capture Yizhou in one fell swoop.

Cao Jun attaches great importance to Dongjun, personally led an army of 30,000, moved closer to Dongjun, provoked the Xiliang army to retreat ten miles, set up camp, temporarily avoid the edge, Cao Cao has been fighting in the world for many years, and has won the art of war, and such an enemy, even the veteran Huang Zhong does not have enough confidence, so he has to temporarily avoid his edge, Jia Rong gave Huang Zhong an order, just to contain Cao Jun, so that they have no time to take care of Yuzhou, after Yuzhou is stable, it is the time for the Xiliang army to go all out to deal with Cao Cao.

The retreat of ten miles shocked the morale of the Cao army, after all, the Xiliang army did not launch any attacks outside the city of Dongjun, and there were fierce generals and strategists in the city who built Dongjun without leakage.

However, Cao Cao was not arrogant enough to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses to pursue to the point of the Xiliang army, and the 30,000 soldiers and horses led by Cao Cao were all elite.

In the eyes of the soldiers, the Xiliang sergeant is invincible, and it is common to take one as ten, even if Cao Cao leads 100,000 soldiers and horses, he should work hard to move forward, but Huang Zhong chose to retreat.

Ma Chao naturally has a lot of slander about this, so he can only vent in secret, if he says something in the open, he will inevitably be accused by Huang Zhong of shaking the morale of the army.

Nanyang County has settled down, but the undercurrent of Jingzhou is still not over, the majesty from the Xiliang Army is more than twice as strong as the Cao Army, many families in Jingzhou have also begun to wake up from the dream, thinking about their future, within half a month, there are not a few families who only visit the Cai family, for a while, the Cai family has become the most influential person in Jingzhou, who makes the family the imperial relatives of the Liang Kingdom, and Liu Bei also secretly ordered people to stare at the Cai family's every move, which is related to the safety of Jingzhou and has to be taken seriously.

"Qiqi Sheng, Yizhou envoy Zhang Song has arrived in the city and asked for an audience."

Jia Rong nodded slightly, it is reasonable for Zhang Song to come to Luoyang, even Liu Bei can get the news that Liu Yan is critically ill, how can he not know that Zhang Song came to Luoyang, it is nothing more than to find a way out, Jia Rong ceremoniously entertained Zhang Song in Chang'an that day, and did not discriminate because of the problem of appearance, presumably Zhang Song will have a surprise when he comes this time.

"Well, I already know about this matter, and I told Zhang Song to enter the palace tomorrow." Jia Rong said lightly.

Just like Jia Rong thought, and now the situation in Yizhou can be described by the word erosion, the land of Yizhou is prosperous, and there is no shortage of talents, but like the Central Plains, there are many families, and even grasp the power, Liu Yan is still able to suppress one or two, and when he leaves, Liu Zhangyan can convince the public, and Zhang Song is not reused in Liu Zhang, Yizhou officials are everywhere who judge people by appearance, Zhang Song has a strange appearance, and has become an insurmountable mountain on his way forward, but these cannot hide Zhang Song's talent, Whether it is eloquence or strategy, Zhang Song is good.

In the post station, Zhang Song couldn't sleep for a long time, touched the things that were close to his body, and felt a little relieved, this will be a stepping stone for him to enter the Xiliang Army, as for what Liu Yan and Liu Zhang of Yizhou, he will have nothing to do with himself, before coming, the affairs at home have been taken care of, I believe that at this time the family has rushed to Chang'an, with the protection of the Xiliang Army, the family is extremely safe, don't worry.

"Power, you must have power, so that all the Yizhou officials who laughed at themselves in the past can only admire themselves, and the Zhang family in Yizhou will become more glorious because of their status." Zhang Song said secretly.

With the geographical map of Xichuan and Dongchuan, Zhang Song was sealed with a small official position, temporarily living in Luoyang City, the fineness of the workmanship of the two maps, naturally not as detailed as the Xiliang army, but the victory is in the distribution of the defenders of the state, as well as the number of troops in each city, which has a vital role in the Xiliang army's capture of Yizhou.

"Take down Yizhou?" Jia Xu exclaimed: "Shengshang, Yizhou is the country of abundance, in the past, Han Gaozu was based on this place, fighting for hegemony in the world, Liu Yan also had such an idea, but the land of Yizhou is mostly passes, which is not conducive to the cavalry siege, and I hope that the saint will carefully consider it." ”

"Don't think about it, this matter will be handled by the Ministry of War, as soon as the grain and grass expenses are spent, apply to the Ministry of Households, and the soldiers and horses will be dispatched, you can do it yourself, and Zuihou will show it to me." Jia Rong waved his hand and motioned for Jia Xu to leave.

Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, and after saluting, he left the palace.

Jia Rong's order is too simple, whenever there was a war in the Xiliang army in the past, Jia Rong would participate in the specific planning, but I didn't expect that now he would hand over all the things to the officials of the court, so decentralized, it can be said that he is broad-minded, Jia Xu did not think that Jia Rong was lazy at all, when an official in the court was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, it means how much the saint values him, which is how many people can't ask for it.

The attack on Yizhou is a matter of great importance, not to mention that at this time, the Xiliang army has soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, and Liu Bei in Jingzhou is confronted, and there are horses and horses in Dongjun, and the Cao army is confronted.

Liu Yan of Yizhou, who died of illness on the bed half a month later, the Han clan who saw that Yizhou had the spirit of a son of heaven, finally failed to become the emperor as he wished, and he was not as good as Liu Biao, at least Liu Biao also participated in the battle against the Xiliang army, and Liu Yan always stuck to one place.

After mourning up and down in Yizhou, in accordance with Liu Yan's order, Liu Yan was respected as the new master of Yizhou, the king of Hanzhong, in fact, Liu Yan, the king of Hanzhong, did not have the idea of taking Hanzhong into the palm of his hand, but everything was complicated, and Liu Yan did not have the courage to cut through the chaos quickly, and he dragged it out again and again, and there was the current situation.

Yizhou is one of the three largest states and counties in the world, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as Yizhou is captured, it is equivalent to having a large base, when the Qin Emperor was able to unify the world, it was not without the credit of Yizhou.

Moreover, Liu Zhang has just succeeded to the throne, and it is difficult to win the trust of officials and courtiers in a short period of time, and intrigues abound, it is this opportunity that allows the Xiliang Army to enter Yizhou, otherwise it will be difficult to attack when Liu Zhang recovers.

At this time, Huang Zhong's situation in Dongjun was a little embarrassing, after all, there were 80,000 troops in the city, and he only had 40,000 people, although he dared to provoke Cao Jun, Cao Jun ignored it, and I will hold the city to see what you can do, but the consumption of 80,000 troops is not a small number, and there are many Xiliang cavalry in the rear, which is annoying.

In the end, Cao Cao decided to fight Huang Zhong in a decisive battle, and the two sides agreed on the location of the decisive battle and began to prepare for the battle.

After Huang Zhong received Cao Cao's war letter, he didn't feel strange, and agreed, the Xiliang army is not a soft egg that anyone can come forward to pinch, what's wrong with 80,000 people, it is 100,000 people, Huang Zhong also dares to fight, morale is high, orders are forbidden, and training is moderate, if such a soldier can't win, it is that Cao's army is too brave.

The weather was a little gloomy, and it seemed that the heavens also felt the fighting spirit of the armies on both sides, and the wind was constantly blowing, rolling up dust and leaves, and flying all over the sky.

Nothing can stop the will of the two armies to fight.

Huang Zhong dispatched 30,000 troops, Cao Jun dispatched 50,000 troops, and the battlefield of nearly 100,000 people can be described as earth-shattering.

The flag danced, and the Xiliang army marched forward with neat steps, with soldiers holding huge shields in the front, spears in their hands, ready to devour the enemy at any time.

The shield soldiers are followed by the archers, and the archers are the real backbone of the battle, yes, Huang Zhong is to defend with the shield soldiers, and then use the archers to intrude, and then use the heavy infantry to charge, and the cavalry that stays on the left and right flanks of the army is ready to fight, as long as there is a chance, immediately come forward to fight.

The flags were danced, the drums shook the sky, and the soldiers on both sides began to fight.

Elite weapons can certainly improve a soldier's chances of survival on the battlefield, but on the battlefield of nearly 100,000 people, the death of a soldier seems so insignificant, human life is as cheap as a dog, here, life is the most worthless thing, and it may be deprived at any time.
