"Cao's army has withdrawn!"

At the moment when the large array in the city opened, Cao Cao ordered the withdrawal of the army, and ordered Xu Chu and Cao Hong to recall the troops attacking the mountain.

Only then did Pang De and Xu Huang withdraw and lead the army to retreat, and the clouds and mist that permeated the battlefield slowly dispersed.

The generals on the mountain all breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the corpses all over the mountain, and all of them had palpitations.

Yang Ren wiped the blood on his face and said, "The big array suddenly opened, it should be that something happened in the city...... Cao Cao probably sent a school officer to assassinate him, hoping that there would be no trouble on Meng Xijiu's side......"

Zhang Wei said: "Since the formation is open as usual, the assassins in the city should all be dead. Quick, send someone back to the city to have a look. ”

"Yes."

Yang Ren immediately ordered someone to return to the city to learn the details.

The guards at each key node of the ten-mile camp began to order their men to clean up the battlefield.

Zhang Qiying, Xingdu, and Wang Shuang took the soldiers and 5,000 men and horses to defend Nanshan, close to Yangping Pass; Ma Chao led the Baishi Assassin Regiment and 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend Beishan; Yang Bai and Yang Ren originally resisted Xu Huang, and they were under Zhang Wei, but at this time, together with Chang Xi, they appeared in Zhang Wei's camp to discuss with him the follow-up countermeasures to resist Cao's attack.

The Yang family is the leading family in Hanzhong, in order to stabilize the rule, Zhang Lu promised generous benefits to Yang Song and Yang Bai brothers, the former is the chief strategist, the head of the civil official, the latter is the chief general, the head of the military attaché, all of them have given the honorary "Great Sacrifice Wine" status, which is the two most respected under the Heavenly Master and the Heavenly Master.

At this time, Yang Bai didn't know Yang Song's situation - after all, Tou Cheng was carried out secretly, if the school government assassination was successful, then Cao Cao would have the eyes of Yangping Guan, and Yang Song would have no problem on the bright side, anyway, outsiders didn't know the content of the transaction, so they went with the flow, and they could be rewarded afterwards, and besides, Yang Bai was too close to Zhang Wei, in case he found out that there would be a catastrophe!

Therefore, Yang Bai did not know about Yang Song's collaboration with the enemy.

But he soon found out......

"Report!"

Suddenly, a Heavenly Master Dao disciple wearing a gray Dao robe hurriedly ran into the big tent, Zhang Wei and the others immediately recognized him as Meng Fan's personal ghost, knowing that it was news from the city, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and said, "Don't panic, is it Meng Xijiu who has something for you to convey." ”

"Yes."

The disciple took out a silk silk from his bosom and presented it to Zhang Wei, and whispered, "Lord Sacrificial Wine ordered me to present it to the heir, please check it alone." ”

Everyone in the tent was stunned.

What does Meng Fan mean by this?

At this time, there are only three in the account: Yang Bai, Yang Ren, and Changxi, what can't you say directly?

Zhang Wei frowned, he wanted him to read it directly, but thinking that Lu Jing was also in the city now, this order might have been given by Lu Jingti, so he took the silk silk and looked at it carefully, it didn't matter, his face was instantly gloomy as water, and the thunder around him exploded, and the skill of the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Formula" exploded instantly, and he shouted angrily:

"Bastard !!"

The thunder was rolling, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and both inside and outside the big tent were shocked.

Yang Bai said: "Heir, what happened......

Zhang Wei waved his hand, didn't look at Yang Bai, walked back to the handsome case and wrote a few lines, and instructed Yang Ren to bring this letter to Nanshan to Lu Jing (Zhang Qiying), Yang Ren saw that the situation was serious, and rushed out of the big tent with light skills, Zhang Wei turned around and said with a cold face: "General Ma Chao, please!" ”

"Yes."

Another soldier rushed to the North Mountain.

The atmosphere in the tent became more and more depressing.

Only Yang Bai and Chang Xi were left looking at each other, and some couldn't understand what news made Zhang Wei so angry.

The ghost soldier knelt in the center of the tent, bowed his head and did not speak.

Soon, Zhang Qiying, who had the face of the landing scene, entered the camp, and Ma Chao followed closely behind, and also arrived in the big tent.

Everyone looked at Zhang Wei neatly.

Zhang Wei closed his eyes, took a deep breath, looked at Yang Bai, and said lightly: "Does the general know what this letter says?" ”

Yang Bai was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "The last general doesn't know ......"

Zhang Wei directly threw the silk silk to Yang Bai, Yang Bai was puzzled, picked it up and looked at it, his face suddenly turned pale - this letter was actually Cao Cao's handwritten letter to Yang Song, with Cao Cao's Wei Gong seal on it, and what was even more terrifying was that under Cao Cao's seal, there was Yang Song's seal and autograph - this is the covenant! Yang Song promised Cao Cao an appointment to assist the assassins of the school government to assassinate Meng Fan!

"This, this, this ......"

Yang Bai's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly said: "Framed!" Heir, this is a false accusation! My eldest brother will never conspire with Cao Cao! ”

"Really?"

Zhang Wei sneered: "Is that a mistake in the seal, or is there a mistake in the handwriting?" ”

"This!"

Cold sweat broke out on Yang Bai's forehead, his own brother, Yang Bai knows Yang Song's temperament best, and this letter is true......

The problem is that it is a felony to communicate with foreign enemies, and the entire Yang clan in Hanzhong will be subjected to Zhulian!

Yang Bai broke out in a cold sweat on his back, peeking around, Zhang Wei, Ma Chao, Lu Jing, Chang Xi and Yang Ren with a confused face - Yang Ren is just a side branch, and he has little to do with it, and the only one closest to Yang Song is himself, Yang Song is likely to have been arrested, and he will be next......

Yang Bai was in a dilemma, his heart was in turmoil, and he subconsciously retreated.

"Catch him!"

Zhang Wei had an attitude of not letting go of mistakes, and directly ordered everyone to start!

Zhang Qiying immediately threw out the [Xiaodu Gong Seal], Ma Chao raised his gun and stabbed flatly, Zhang Wei's figure flickered, everyone went up, Yang Bai was hit hard, and he was about to be captured, the ghost pawn who was half-kneeling on the ground smiled slightly, took out a [Yuanrong Crossbow] from his arms that specialized in breaking the martial artist's body protection and qi, and aimed at Zhang Wei who attacked Yang Bai with his palm!

Meanwhile.

Cao Jun took advantage of the civil strife in Zhang Wei's army and made a comeback to fight and shook the sky.

Xiahou Yuan, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Pang De, and Cao Hong went out to attack the mountain and kill Zhang Wei's camp!

……

Underground Vault.

Lu Jing manipulated Zhang He with a puppet silk and confronted Guo Huai to prevent this person from sneaking up.

Meng Fan hid behind Lu Jing and controlled the entire "Five Elements Flower Tree Array", strengthening the tens of thousands of protective thorns in the direction of the city gate.

The three of them went their own way, and they were very quiet.

After being bored, Guo Huai suddenly smiled and looked at Lu Jingdao: "You are the descendant of the Heavenly Master and the Daoist, a person who cultivates the Dao, don't you understand what it means to 'irreversibly overturn the general trend and the inviolability of the Great Dao'?" What's the point of being so stubborn? ”

Lu Jing said casually: "It doesn't make any sense, it's just in his position, eating his luck, and seeking his government, that's all." ”

Guo Huai was stunned: "It's that simple?" ”

"It's as simple as that."

Lu Jing sighed and looked at the top of his head: "What's more, I can only do this step......"

Guo Huai thought for a while, but also understood, his eyes softened, and he didn't say anything more.

Cao Jun has one less Guo Huai, which is harmless, but if the Heavenly Master Dao has one less Lu Jing, then the problem will be big. This is not to say that Lu Jing is stronger than Guo Huai, but the difference in the weight of the two, Cao Cao has many more strategists and generals than Zhang Wei's side, and there are many tricks and tricks, Zhang Wei may not be able to stop it...... The big array can't be broken, but it may not be able to catch people......

Soon, half an hour passed.

Meng Fan, who was connected to the big array, suddenly changed his face drastically, and Lu Jing saw it in his eyes and guessed that the general trend had gone.

"Heir...... Caught ......"

……

Nam Zheng.

Ferris Ridge.

Zhang Lu, Fan Xuan, Zhang Yulan and others were handling government affairs in the Daoqi Eternal Preservation Palace, and suddenly received a talisman from Meng Fan.

Fan Xuan pinched his fingers and sighed in his heart.

Zhang Yulan also guessed one or two when she looked at his face, and looked back at this mansion where she had lived for thirty years, a little stunned.

Zhang Lu also had a hunch, since he knew that Cao Cao's personal expedition and the army arrived at Yangping Pass, he knew that it was very likely that he would not be able to hold it, but sooner or later.

He adjusted his mentality, and with a wave of his sleeves, his vitality condensed in the air, revealing handwriting.

——In the sixteenth year of Jian'an, on August 19, the fog was filled. Cao Cao feinted to attack the camps on the mountain and retreated, taking advantage of Zhang Weijun's slackness, with a letter of Yang Song's appointment to make the former generals Zhang Wei and Yang Bai turn against him, Zhang Wei mobilized the elite of the Heavenly Master Dao to arrest him, but Cao Jun seized the opportunity, took advantage of the unpreparedness in his camp, made a comeback, and attacked the mountain in a big way!

The school officer's Yingyang Captain 'Thousand-Faced Fox' killed Yang Bai and severely injured Zhang Wei with [Yuanrong Crossbow] and [Demon Talisman].

The covenant was poisonous, Zhang Wei was poisoned and wounded and captured, and then the battalion was captured, and the army was defeated!

Cao Cao arrested Zhang Wei to negotiate in front of Yangping Pass, and promised that as long as Zhang Luken surrendered, he would not only return Zhang Wei, but also take Zhengyi as the state religion of Wei, take Zhang Lu as the national teacher of Wei, and worship General Zhennan, seal Langzhong Marquis, eat 10,000 households, and all five sons are liehous!

Zhang Lu looked at it, not only disappointed, but also satisfied, Cao Cao's handwriting was much bigger than he expected.

——Just the two national religions of Wei and the national teachers of Wei are what he can't refuse, which is a great convenience!

At this time, everyone knew that Cao Cao intended to be king, and the Han family was declining, and the world would be Wei sooner or later.

The two halos of the State Religion of Wei and the National Teacher of Wei will become more and more prominent with the passage of time!

The stairs were given, and the benefits came.

Zhang Lu was no longer reserved.

In the sixteenth year of Jian'an, on August 20, Zhang Lu arrived at Yangping Pass with all the high-level officials of the Heavenly Master Dao, and personally asked Cao Cao to surrender and presented the [Flower and Tree Order].

"The so-called chaos must be governed for a long time, suffering from more than 20 years of war, all the states in the world are ten rooms and nine empty, the people's livelihood is withering, and everyone is determined. Looking at today's world, the person who can return the sky to the sky is none other than Wei Gong. The ancestors and fathers took heaven and earth as their hearts and living beings as their thoughts, traveled around the world, eliminated harm for the people, and established a great religion. Those who teach me are not sincere, there is no way to be virtuous, there is no way to be loyal, there is no way to be a king, and there is no filial piety.

Lu Bucai, following Hanzhong Taishou for more than ten years, governing the government with doctrine, fortunately recognized by the people, all the people are happy, happy to settle down, and then divide one side, after all, it is not my will, now I am willing to entrust the land of Hanzhong to the Duke of Wei, please send another virtuous person to succeed Hanzhong Taishou, Lu wants to put aside vulgar thoughts, Ning Xinyizhi, preside over teaching affairs, preach my way in Shenzhou, keep the right and dispel evil, to Kuang Dao! ”

After Zhang Lu finished speaking, he bowed down as a courtier.

Yan Pu, Fan Xuan, Zhang Yulan, Meng Fan, Lu Jing and others bowed down.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, personally helped Zhang Lu up, gave the national teacher, and took his hand into the Yangping Pass.

Feng Zhang Wei was the general of Zhaoyi and the marquis of Lanxiang.

Feng Yanpu is the general of Jianjie, the marquis of Pingle.

Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan were both not interested in being officials and refused Cao Cao's canonization.

Then there are Zhang Lu's five sons, all of whom are pavilions and important positions.

Then, it was Lu Jing's turn.

In this battle, Lu Jing shined, first defeated the Xiahou Yuan pioneer battalion, and then repeatedly saw through the assassination of the school office, and even borrowed Zhang He to stabilize Guo Huai at the critical juncture, and fought for Meng Fan to fight for the opportunity, if it weren't for this, Yangping Pass would have already fallen!

His martial arts, wit and character were vividly displayed, and Cao Cao greatly appreciated it.

Treating this kind of eye-catching young talent, Cao Cao has always been generous, with a wave of his hand, sealing Lu Jing as the Marquis of Lou Ting, touching the captain of Jin, and sitting on an equal footing with Yang An in one fell swoop, envying others.

- In fact, Cao Cao wanted to canonize him as the captain of Yingyang, but he had no choice but to hold this position as a guard, and ordinary generals could not hold it.

Even if Lu Jing is loyal to Heavenly Master Dao and Fan Xuan, and has a tough heart, it will take time to prove that he is also loyal to Wei and him. Captain Touch's search for treasures and intelligence, while staying away from the center, is a perfect place to cultivate a sense of belonging.

At this point, Cao Cao took Hanzhong and ordered each county to set up a guard, put the capital captain, and reward the soldiers!

Sima Yijin, the chief bookkeeper, said: "Liu Bei besieged Chengdu at this time, and now the lord has won Hanzhong, Yizhou is shaken, and he can quickly advance to attack it, and it is bound to collapse." The wise man is more valuable than the time, and the opportunity cannot be lost. ”

But at this moment, the news came that Liu Bei led his army to capture Chengdu and Liu Zhang surrendered.

At the same time, there is also news that Sun Quan in the south attacked Hefei and the rebellion of Xudu, and there is news that the "rebellious ministers" conspired to rescue the Son of Heaven.

God is operating with Cao.

Sun Quan's attack in the south and the fire in the backyard were carried out at the same time, which was to help Liu Bei buy time!

Cao Cao couldn't stay in Hanzhong for a long time, so he left Xiahou Yuan to guard the mountain pass of the Dingjun army, and Zhang He to guard the Mengtouyan pass, and began to lead the army back.

The Han Dynasty has been a monk for 400 years, and there are old people. These people are secretly arching the fire and pumping cold to deal with Cao Cao!

Cao Cao knew that he had to be the king as soon as possible, get rid of the Han Dynasty, and now Hanzhong has been obtained, Zhang Lu bowed his head, the great merit is in hand, the road to the king has been unstoppable, Shu Road is difficult, at this time it took a long time to attack Liu Bei, the abdomen and back were affected by the enemy, and it was more difficult, and so on Sun Quan and Xuchang rebellion, first called the king system, and completely cut off from the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao led his army back to Yecheng.

The high-level of the Heavenly Master Dao and the 80,000 disciples were also willing to follow.

"Finally leaving ......"

Lu Jing glanced back at Hanzhong one last time, and then rode his horse towards the wider world.

Behind him, Wang Shuang, Hu Cong, Zhang Qiying, Yan Ling and others who were also running fast, and a new world was also welcoming them......
