Lantian side is the Weishui tributary Bashui, mentioning Bashui, you have to get up Tsukaling Mountain, its periphery, and Guanju Mountain and other mountains and rivers are connected together, Lantian is established at the foot of this continuous mountain, similarly, Danshui, also originated here.

Qingni Pass, since Xu Huang led the troops south, because most of the troops in Guanzhong were taken away, only more than 30,000 people were left in the pass, and they could only defend themselves, plus after Xu Huang went, there was no general in charge, in the face of such a situation, Xun You could only ask Zhuge Jin for help on the one hand, and strengthen the pass on the other hand, in order to resist the attack that might come at any time.
Three months later, Xun You's office welcomed Guo Huai and Xue Zong, who were transferred here, and at the same time, Lantian Kuailiang, who had been training for more than three months, had gradually taken on the appearance of an army, with a scale of nearly 100,000 people, which suddenly gave Kuailiang confidence again. At this time, Sima Yi listened to Cao Cao's words and retreated the army again, Kuailiang's more than 100,000 people were quickly transferred by Sima Yi, and Sima Yi was on top of him in the north, and Kuailiang didn't care much about whether Zhuge Jin could attack Chang'an, anyway, his family members had already been sent to Yizhou by him, and it was a big deal to cross the Qinling Mountains and hide in Hanzhong.
At the beginning of September, when Zhuge Jin and Cao Cao confronted each other, and Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi combined their swords, Xun Yu left Guo Huai to guard the pass, and he and Xue Zong commanded an army of 20,000, approaching Lantian again, intending to break the deadlock and threaten Chang'an.
At the same time, confronting Sun Ce, Zhao Yun listened to Pang Tong's strategy, and attacked the west with the sound of the east, and wantonly transferred troops to attack Xiangyang's plan, but the army turned to the west of Xiangyang Longzhong and successfully crossed the river, and then the army went straight to Jingshan, and before Sun Ce had time to react, he captured Zhonglu, and Fancheng was attacked in the south and north, and looked at Xiangyang.
In mid-September, a piece of news came out, so that Sun Cejun, who was holding Xiangyang, quickly disintegrated the will to defend, and a generation of Jie Zhou Yu was ambushed outside Zhengyang City in Runan and died on the Death Festival.
But it turned out that after shrinking the army to Pingyu, the pressure on Zhou Yu did not decrease much at all, but as time went by, his situation became more and more difficult. First, Li Dian, Ma Dai, and Jiang Qi led the troops to march forward step by step, and the scope of their activities was tightly compressed to the south of Pingyu, and then, Xu Huang was on his guard, with the help of sailors, and attacked Xincai, more than 100 miles south of Pingyu, and cut off Zhou Yu's waist in Runan.
Zhou Yu died, really want to get up, it was really an accident, it can only be, his luck is a little worse, in Pingyu City, Zhou Yu has a large army in his hands, with more than 100,000 people, Li Dian, Xu Huang, and Zhao Zhao Although the three roads blocked Zhou Yu's road to move troops in three directions, they did not completely block its road to the south, Pingyu, Yichun, Ancheng, Shenyang, Zhengyang, Anyang and other places are still in the hands of Zhou Yu, and the road to the south is a smooth road.
At the end of August 215 AD, Zhou Yu left Zhang Xun to command 30,000 troops to stay in Pingyu, he and Sun Jing, Zhu Huan, Chen Wu and others quietly went south, with an army of 70,000, plus the people who escorted grain and grass materials, a total of more than 100,000 troops, there were really not many secrets to speak of, on the third day of Zhou Yu's departure, the news reached the ears of Li Dian, the closest to Pingyu.
Man Cheng and Zhou Yu withdrew their troops, this is a great opportunity to recover Runan, such a good opportunity, it must not be missed. As soon as he learned the news, Tian Chou hurriedly found Li Dian's place to live, and his face couldn't help but show joy.
Mr. Zitai, a good opportunity, I'm afraid it's not just that! Compared with Yu Tian Chou, at this time, Li Dian seemed to have become a person who made suggestions, with a calm look on his face, so that Tian Chou couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, and then laughed at himself, and found a place to sit down next to Li Dian.
Hahaha, it's true, fast, you have to notify a few other people as quickly as possible, if it is properly arranged, it will not be too much of a problem to leave Zhou Yu in Runan. It was just a moment, Tian Chou's face had just faded from excitement and covered his face again, and just as he opened his mouth to shout, a flush suddenly appeared on Li Dian's face.
Sir, don't worry, I have sent someone to inform Ma Dai and Jiang Qi, presumably they should also know the news at this time. For Tian Chou's excitement, why wouldn't Li Dian be the same in his heart? Zhou Yu occupies most of Runan, Li Dian has been thinking about driving him out of Runan all the time since he came here, but the troops in his hands are limited, and he has been facing each other for several months, and there is not much progress, who thinks, with Xu Huang and the move, the situation has taken a sharp turn, forcing Zhou Yu to lead the troops to retreat, but now Li Dian is no longer the reckless young man he was back then, under the influence of Zhuge Jin, Li Dian is now nearly forty years old, and a calm general is exuding, and he is a smart person, He had a keener grasp of the fighter plane, because when Tian Chou was excited because of the availability of Runan, his eyes were already fixed on Zhou Yu.
Soon, Li Dian's army moved, and soon after, the entire northern defense line followed and pressed southward, but at this time, Zhou Yu had already crossed the Ru River and marched to the city of Ancheng. It stands to reason that with Zhou Yu's marching speed, he should not be caught up by Li Dian and others, you must know that in Pingyu, there are still Zhang Xun's 30,000 troops.
This matter, not only Li Dian did not expect, even Zhou Yu also did not expect that in Ancheng City, more than 100,000 people rested for a day, the army set off again, naturally, when they went on the road again, the team grew again, and the number gradually reached 140,000 people, and the marching speed of the army was greatly reduced, and it could only travel more than ten miles a day.
Three days later, passing through Shenyang, but this time, he had already sensed that the marching speed was too slow Zhou Yu, but he did not leave any more time for the army to rest, and even did not enter the city, so the army continued to move south, and when he saw the Zhengyang city from a distance, Li Dian's army rumbled and chased up. In Li Dian's hands, there were originally less than 30,000 soldiers, and after meeting with Ma Dai and Jiang Qi, he sent 10,000 people to his account from the two of them, and then left two people to besiege Zhang Xun in Pingyu, and he followed all the way with the army.
Quick, speed up, order the rear army, and form a formation on the spot. While Zhou Yu gave the order, he and Chen Wu rushed to the rear army, while Sun Jing and Zhu Huan quickly organized people to bring the tent soldiers into the city.
In the rear army, when Zhou Yu arrived, the 12,000-strong army formation had already begun to appear, and at this moment, Li Dianjun, who was at the front, had already rushed to the front, without pause or organization, and rushed up like this.
Kill \u2026\u2026 Li Dian's horse was fast, his arm shook rapidly, and the spear in his hand suddenly turned into a shadow of a spear in the sky, penetrating the soldiers in front of him one by one, the horses passed, and a rain of blood flew down, and then the soldiers, along with Li Dian, rushed through the gap, quickly killed in, and kept impacting and fighting, the soldiers on both sides continued to wear away, and the gap expanded little by little.
The governor is leaving, I will stop them from delaying time, this place cannot be held, and I ask the governor to organize another army formation as soon as possible to block it. In just a quarter of an hour, even Zhou Yu didn't expect that the soldiers he had trained would be so vulnerable. Chen Wu couldn't remember how many times he had killed, but he just waved the big knife in his hand mechanically, rolled the blade, and grabbed a handful in the enemy's hands to continue, but his strength alone was limited after all, and he was defeated, inadvertently, it had been formed, no matter how he shouted, he couldn't stop it, so he had no choice but to run to Zhou Yu's side and shout at him.
Zhou Yu was not hypocritical, and after raising his eyes and glancing at Chen Wu, he turned around and left with more than 100 guards around him.
If things come here, at most, Zhou Yu is not very lucky, not a little back, just when the more than 100 of them retreated, and when they were about to rush back to the large army, a force of about 1,000 soldiers burst out of the oblique thorn, each wearing Jing Guo armor, carrying a half-man tall bow, Zhou Yu couldn't help but be happy when he saw them, stepped forward, and shouted at them, who was obviously a small leader: Which general's subordinates are you? Who is the commander here? The enemy is already approaching, so bring your men over and line up to stop the enemy.
No one opened their mouths to reply to Zhou Yu, only the more than 1,000 people took off their longbows at the same time, and more than 1,000 people quickly formed five teams in front of Zhou Yu, with 100 people in a row, each team had two rows of soldiers, and the movements were uniform, and when Zhou Yu's face just showed joy, suddenly Zhang Gong shot at more than 100 people of Zhou Yu on the opposite side.
Kill \u2026\u2026 A late shout suddenly sounded, but it was a pity, but Zhou Yu didn't have time to regret it, just in an instant, he was covered by the rain of arrows coming from his face, and his body twitched a few times, and he was cut off.
The governor \u2026\u2026 A rain of arrows, because most of them were directed at Zhou Yu, it was the more than 100 people behind him, under the dense rain of arrows, nearly half of them still survived, but after looking at Zhou Yu, only a miserable cry remained in his throat, and he was immediately poured down again and shot into a hedgehog.
