Meridian Valley is the rightmost of the four roads into Shu.

From the south of Chang'an, it enters the lofty mountains and mountains, and goes all the way south to Hanzhong. In peacetime, it was the closest mountain road between Guanzhong and Hanzhong.

In wartime, however, this path was generally not considered as a priority. Because the road is so narrow, the nearest place can only accommodate one horse. Many of them are artificially constructed wooden plank roads, which are prone to problems.

Moreover, the entrance to the exit of Meridian Valley is full of mountains and dangerous peaks, and only a small part of the troops is needed to block the road.

Because of this, Zhuge Liang was not worried that Wei Yan would lead 5,000 troops to fight Chang'an. Let's assume that there is no problem with you going to the Meridian Valley, and Chang'an can be defeated, but the Shu army can't defeat the Wei army on the Guanzhong Plain at all.

What's more, Cao Wei has more than 100,000 troops in Guanzhong, and there is no difference between 5,000 people going to Chang'an to attack the fortifications and sending them. Even if Zhuge Liang didn't feel sorry for the five thousand soldiers, he had to consider whether Shu Han could lose Wei Yan.

But now, Ma Jian doesn't have this worry, because Zhuge Liang doesn't know about it at all.

"Even if the Meridian Valley is the shortest Shu Road, the total length is more than 600 li, and it takes about ten days for the infantry to march to pass. If there is any accident, half a month is enough to reach Guanzhong. ”

"At that time, the prime minister has just received the news, and it will definitely be too late to send someone to arrest me. That way, I'll have at least a month's free time to die in Guanzhong......"

Ma Jian was very shrewd in his calculations, and he had already made a plan after making the troops out of Meridian Valley.

It took at least ten days for the news from Hanzhong to reach Chengdu. When the prime minister knew about it, he basically finished the Meridian Valley.

After that, the people who came to capture him marched and came, and they had to walk for half a month, and then chase him from the Meridian Valley for another month.

In this way, he can also make trouble in Guanzhong for a month. In this month, there were nearly 2,000 soldiers and horses with the headquarters and the Hanzhong cavalry that had been gathered, and it was still easy to kill a wave.

Plan to pass! This time I even saw my grandmother waving to me!

Jiang Wei and Liu Yin are not very clear about Ma Yan's thoughts. However, they were very unconvinced by their general's arrangement.

Because Ma Jian arranged all of them to the second echelon, he was responsible for commanding the follow-up 3,000 Hanzhong receiving troops to guard the Meridian Valley Pass. Ma Tan personally led the cavalry out to play a trick, and if the battle was unfavorable, he immediately retreated to the Meridian Valley.

This makes these two generals who want to make war exploits basically unable to touch any war exploits.

Anyway, I'm also a great talent that you personally recognized as a general, so why do you use me like this? Anyway, we have to act as a vanguard and behead General Cao Wei, right?

…………

When the soldiers and horses of Hanzhong passed through the Meridian Valley all the way and began to travel north on a narrow mountain road. At the same time, the Wei army in the direction of Chang'an also began to act, and the commander Cao Zhen personally commanded this time.

The dangers of the mountains and rivers of Shu Han blocked many things, and in addition to the enemy army, there was also an outflow of intelligence.

The scouts that Cao Zhen arranged in Shu often found it difficult to send information back. Even if it is sent back, it is usually more than half a year ago.

At this moment, Cao Zhen didn't know that the rebellion in Shu was gone, and the troublesome scholars had already voted. He still followed the original plan and started the largest expedition since the founding of Cao Wei.

The Liangzhou army was 40,000, led by Sima Yi, the hussar general of Liangzhou, and united with Qianghu to attack Anding County in an all-round way. Shu Han was defended by Wei Yan, the general of Zhenbei, and the armies of both sides quickly fought on the front line of the Yellow River.

In the direction of Yongzhou, there are slightly more soldiers and horses, with 100,000 elite soldiers and horses. The entire Guanzhong Legion united with Yongzhou almost poured out of the nest and rushed straight to Chencang.

This is directly responsible for the Yongzhou assassin Shi Fei Yi, and the troops of Yongzhou are sent to help. At the same time, Fei Yi also quickly wrote a letter back to Chengdu to ask the central government for help.

In the direction of Huainan, Cao Xiu also led 80,000 troops east to Nanyang, and launched an offensive towards Shangyong Prefectures.

At this moment, Zhao Yun and Zhang He are in charge, and the two famous generals in the late Eastern Han Dynasty also carried out all-out defense in the face of this junior who tried to bully the less.

Only a few months before the Battle of Wu, Cao Wei launched an all-out attack on Shu Han, which was in the limelight.

However, in addition to this, Cao Zhen arranged an additional surprise soldier. In other words, this strange soldier is the key to the victory of the battle of Shu.

Cao Zhen selected 30,000 elites early in Chang'an, and practiced mountain combat day and night.

At this moment, Cao Zhen also scattered this part, preparing to complete a reverse Meridian Valley conspiracy.

According to Cao Zhen's plan, Longyou encountered a counterattack by the main force of the Wei army, and he would definitely deploy the troops of Hanzhong to aid Longyou. Hanzhong will be empty because of this, and the defense will not be as tight as before.

This elite 30,000 raided Hanzhong along the Meridian Valley and quickly took down Nanzheng, the transportation hub in the middle. Then he quickly took control of Hanzhong and cut off the connection between Longyou and Shuzhong.

As a result, Longyou and Shangyong have become isolated cities, and it is not certain whether they can block the offensive of the Wei army. And the Wei army only needs to protect the Meridian Valley and ensure the smooth flow of the grain route, so that they can recover all the lost territory without much effort.

The idea is very beautiful, very chicken thief, in order to prevent accidents, Cao Zhen also personally led the troops there, and brought the clan general Xiahou Ba, who had just debuted, as the vanguard.

It can be said that everything is ready, and the advantage is mine!

However, Cao Zhen didn't know that the Chengdu court at this moment was indeed jumping with chickens and dogs. But the specific reason is not because of Cao Wei's four-way army to attack Shu, but ......

"What do you say! Where did that kid go? Zhuge Liang almost fell from his position, and his face changed suddenly.

And the rest of the Prime Minister's Mansion, such as Jiang Wan and others, were shocked.

"General Fuguo personally led the troops to the Meridian Valley, saying that he would personally lead the troops to Chang'an to explore the great cause of the Northern Expedition!" The messenger in Hanzhong trembled, too timid to raise his head.

At this moment, he could feel that the momentum of the great prime minister above had changed.

"And in order to ensure that we are not discovered in advance by the pseudo-Wei, the envoy does not allow us to spread the ......"

"This ...... Is the child already so indulgent? Zhuge Liang's face darkened, and the anger in his eyes finally couldn't be hidden.

For a long time, Ma Jian has at most been a thorny image who is reckless and does not obey military orders. But in general, I still care more about the overall situation, and I can still listen to orders.

Because of this, after subduing the counterattack of the localists, Zhuge Liang sent Ma Jian to Hanzhong. There was a need for horses to guard it, and a large number of Northern Expeditionary soldiers needed to be trained in command.

No one expected that Ma Tan would be unconvinced and go to the Northern Expedition to Chang'an!

If you don't pay attention to that place, Ma Yanke will die without a place to be buried!

"Order Wu Ban to immediately lead his troops to Hanzhong to take over Nanzheng, and then immediately ...... Forget it, I will go to Hanzhong in person, and I must arrest Ma Jian and ask me for the crime! ”
