Xue Ting lost more than 15,000 soldiers in the battle, and after the news of the retreat of the whole army reached Yangping Pass, the Bashu generals and Li Song's staff in the hall all had surprised expressions.

Li Song's face was even more pale, Xue Ting, as the general he valued the most, behaved so badly, he was simply slapping himself in the face, and he also gave his political enemies an opportunity to suppress.

Li Song looked at his chief of staff and asked, "Mr. Dong, what is the current battle situation, can you tell us about it."

This Mr. Dong is a local Confucian in Bashu, knowledgeable and long-term, he shook the feather fan in his hand lightly, and said calmly: "Now the battle situation is not optimistic for us, let's talk about the praise slope first, General Xue Ting has suffered repeated defeats, so that the puppet Tang King took the Tang army to Shimen and Baozhong, and is about to come to the south of Zheng City.

According to intelligence, there were nearly 140,000 Tang troops on this route, and the troops were divided into three routes to attack Xiabian, Xiucheng and Jialing. Now that the three armies are gathering in Jialing, the next direction of their attack should be Fuxian and Yangping Pass."

Li Song looked at everyone in the hall and said loudly, "Everyone knows, the current situation is very serious, we can't afford to be a little sloppy, since the pseudo-Tang King has appeared in Shimen, we can't take it lightly. Ben Shuai decided to personally raise the army to return to Shimen to deal with the Tang army of the puppet Tang King."

After listening to Mr. Dong's analysis, everyone in the hall already knew that Li Song had to send troops back to help.

I saw Li Song turn his head to look at Xiqi Shengxiong, and said in a stern tone: "General Xiqi, I will leave you 80,000 people here in Fuxian County and Yangping Pass, this is the most people I can leave for you, you must guard Yangping Pass for me."

Xiqi Shengxiong saluted and said: "The last general will live up to the generalissimo's trust, and will let the Tang army sink under the Yangping Pass."

Li Song let out a long sigh and said, "I hope so."

Li Song's movements were very fast, and he received the military information of Bao Shudao, and the next day, he returned to the division with 70,000 Bashu troops in Yangping Pass to rescue.

At this time, An Hao, Yang Maoming, and Pei Zongyan had already gathered troops in Jialing County. It is adjacent to Jialing Water, with Hechi County in the northwest, Xiucheng County in the west, and Fu County and Yangpingguan in the southeast.

At this time, the three military marshals sat in the Yazheng Hall of Jialing County, drinking tea and looking at the sand table in the hall, studying the current battle situation.

At this time, Cen Yu strode in and saluted the three military marshals, "I have seen three military marshals in my humble position."

When An Hao saw him, he said with a smile, "Cen Yuhou, since you are here, it means that there is news coming, right?"

Cen Yu nodded and said, "According to the news from the Fifth Sima, the king has led his troops to break through the Baochuan Road and is attacking the stone gate."

This piece of information made the eyes of the three military marshals suddenly light up, and they looked at the sand table at the same time, since King Tang had arrived at Shimen, that is to say, it was not far from Nanzheng.

Yang Maoming sighed: "The king is really powerful, he has broken through the praise slope in less than a month."

An Hao raised his head and asked Cen Yu, "Cen Yuhou, can you have information on the movements of the Bashu army in Yangping Pass."

Cen Yu nodded, took out a piece of information from his arms, handed it to An Hao, and said, "According to Chazi's report, Li Song, the generalissimo of the Bashu army, has returned to Nanzheng with 70,000 troops. Now there are 80,000 Bashu troops in Fuxian and Yangping Pass, and the main will be Xiqi Shengxiong."

Pei Zongyan said with a look of surprise, "This old guy is not dead yet? I remember that he fell from the city wall in Ji County, but he didn't fall to his death."

Cen Yu took over the conversation and said, "At that time, the city wall was full of corpses of the Bashu army, and the old general of Xiqi fell down, of course he couldn't die."

An Hao raised his hand and pressed his temple, and said with a headache: "80,000 people, guarding Fuxian and Yangping Pass, this battle is not easy to fight."

Yang Maoming and Pei Zongyan agreed and said, "Yes, we are only 150,000, even if we besiege, Yangping Pass is bordered by the Qinling Mountains in the north, Hanshui and Bashan in the south, and Dingjun Mountain and Tiandang Mountain in the south and north of Hanshui are at the corner of each other. The Bashu army built a fortress in the mountains, which was very disadvantageous to our army's attack."

Cen Yu said another piece of information at this time: "

The three are army commanders, the Eleventh Army of Cheng Zhifang and the Twelfth Army of Ling Ping's Army have passed through Yinping Road, have arrived at Jiang and Zitong, and are marching towards Baishui, Jiameng, and Jiange."

"What?!"

The three military marshals were all shocked by this news, this Cheng Zhifang and Ling Ping were really bold enough, such a difficult road was just for them to finish, and they appeared in Bashu unexpectedly.

When An Hao and the other three were surprised by Cheng Zhifang and Ling Ping's feats, Cheng Zhifang stood at the head of Jiangyou City and was complaining to Ling Ping: "Brother Ling, the two of us have suffered all kinds of hardships along the way, or go back with that great achievement, it is simply intolerable."

Ling Ping nodded and said: "Brother Cheng is worthy of being a famous general, along the way, you are the first soldier, climbing dangerous roads, personally participating in digging mountains and opening roads, repairing trestle bridges, and the 11th Army is even more strict in military discipline. When you arrived at Mage Mountain, there was no road ahead, so if you hadn't taken the lead, you would have rolled down the hill wrapped in felt. How can we appear in this rich Shu."

Cheng Zhifang laughed and said, "Where is it, Brother Ling, you won't come, this twelfth army let you train, it is very strong, if it weren't for your support in the back and give me your own military rations, our eleventh army would probably starve to death halfway before it reached Shuzhong."

The two greasy uncles blew each other on a meaty face, causing their respective generals to bow their heads and laugh. After stopping blowing each other, Ling Ping thought to himself: Fortunately, Wang Shang flew pigeons early and passed the book, so that I could prepare more grain, otherwise the hungry wolf cubs of the Eleventh Army could do such a thing as grabbing grain.

Cheng Zhifang thought to himself at this time: Fortunately, the king flew the pigeon early and passed the book, so I prepared more felt. Look at these unlucky children of the Twelfth Army, one by one, their noses are blue and their faces are swollen. Ha ha.

Ling Ping took the initiative to bow his hand and said, "Brother Cheng, before leaving, the king specially instructed the elder brother to lead the army north as soon as possible after entering Bashu, and backstabbed all the passes of Bashu, then don't pass it here."

Cheng Zhifang heard Ling Ping mention King Tang, and hurriedly said with a respectful face: "Since the king has given the order, then Brother Ling has to be cautious, according to the latest information, the king has already led troops to the vicinity of Nanzheng. Brother Ling led the troops to the north and gave Li Song a salary from the bottom of the kettle, which was a great achievement. Haha."

Ling Ping said with a smile: "What a great achievement, how can it be compared to Brother Cheng, leading the troops south to Jinguan City, capturing the puppet emperor alive, and destroying the Bashu court, this is the immortal achievement." Brother is here, I wish Brother Cheng a smooth journey and success!"

Cheng Zhifang laughed and said, "Okay! Good! Good! Borrowing Brother Ling's auspicious words, I will say goodbye here, and look forward to going out together next time."
