Chapter 444: Hegemony has been achieved
Since the third year of Zhang Wu, Liu Bei died of illness in the White Emperor City, and Zhuge Liang ushered in the darkest moment of his life.
It is the new monarch who has just come of age to support him, and the court is a mixture of various factions with uneven hearts. And the one he wants to support is a small country that is tired at the bottom, and the army is scattered and about to perish.
At that time, the Shu Han regime was suffering from internal and external troubles, and the pressure on survival was huge. Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, who was in power at that time, was also depressed for a while, and felt that the future of the country was bleak.
He was conscientious and cautious with the broken ship of Shu Han, trying to find the last glimmer of hope in despair.
In fact, before the First Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang was rather pessimistic about the future. All he could do was follow the original deployment and try to hold the sky with one hand.
However, eight years have passed in a blink of an eye, and everything seems to be in front of Zhuge Liang's eyes. In the end, everything was frozen in the present, and the big red flag of the Han was fluttering at the head of Chang'an City.
"Hahaha...... There is hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty. ”
So, in the stunned eyes of everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhuge Liang, who has always been steady, laughed heartily regardless of his image. Either Ma Jian saw this scene, and he would inevitably find a way to find someone to draw it down and pass it on to history.
The name is called, Zhuge laughs!
"Prime Minister! The general has already led his troops to capture the outer city of Chang'an, and it is time for us to enter the city with the army! Yang Yi looked at Zhuge Liang and laughed for a long time, regardless of his image, and then reminded cautiously.
"Let me take a look at this scene......" Zhuge Liang slowly stopped smiling, but there was still endless joy in his eyes. At this moment, he was a little reluctant to blink, for fear that this scene would dissipate like a dream.
However, after a brief moment of closing his eyes and opening them again, the picture quickly changed. On the wall of Chang'an, the banner of the Han army was erected, telling Zhuge Liang that this was not a dream.
The Han army has regained Chang'an.
"That's it! Let's go into the city! We're just getting started! Zhuge Liang sat down on the four-wheeled bicycle again, his face calmed down again, and waved his hand lightly to Yang Yi.
"Even if we take Chang'an back, Kansai is in ruins, and we need to work under heavy pressure."
"But everyone remembers that the first achievement of this Northern Expedition is the general horse Youchang!"
…………

Zhuge Liang restabilized his mood, and with the team of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the ministers began to prepare to enter the city in an orderly manner.
At the same time, Ma Tan had already led the vanguard of the Han army to rush to the streets of Chang'an to confront the Wei army.
Although Chang'an is the old capital of the Western Han Dynasty, by now, this old city is far from being as prosperous as it used to be. Ma Tan led the Han soldiers to follow the defeated Wei army all the way to the inner city, and there were hardly any civilians to be seen along the way.
Although because of the war, many people should have gone into hiding. But just looking at the dilapidated houses, hole-ridden roofs, and pitted streets along the way, Ma Jian estimated that the population of the city should not be very large.
Eh, this street and the roof of the house look like something just smashed it.
Ma Tan followed all the way down and fought all the way to the inner city, only then did he encounter decent resistance from the Wei army. The Wei general Sima Fu led the Wei army of thousands to defend the city walls, trying to make a final resistance.
However, it was said to be resistance, but Sima Fu had always been in front of the battle in person, constantly shouting to the Han army that he wanted to see Zhuge Liang in person. If he couldn't see Zhuge Liang, he would take the Wei soldiers to fight to the last drop of blood.
Ma Jian was not accustomed to this at all, and personally led his soldiers to attack the city first. Then Sima Fu watched as Ma Jian climbed the city wall and crushed thousands of Wei troops in front of him.
In the end, Sima Fu, who really couldn't stand it, could only change his words, he didn't need to see Zhuge Liang, just come to someone who could speak.
"I'm the Great Han Cavalry General Ma Yan! Do you have any last words, hurry up, I'll hurry up! Ma Tan pointed the tip of his knife at Sima Fu, didn't bother to wipe the blood on his face, and said in an extremely rude manner.
"Under your feet is the West...... The great Han's Shenwei general Ma Youchang? Sima Fu was slightly stunned, and was suddenly a little speechless.
If you had known that Ma Jian was here in person, Sima Fu would have surrendered immediately, and he would not have been able to suffer this beating.
"I am the current head of the Sima family in Hanoi, and Sima Fu, the younger brother of Sima Yi, the pseudo-Wei Taiwei! Our family has been Hanchen for generations, and we eat Han ......" Sima Fu also planned to make a tirade to increase his bargaining chips for surrender, but Ma Jian came up directly and put the knife on his neck.
"Long story short, I don't have time to listen to you here! I'm going to chase after Sima Yi who escaped! ”
Sima Fu suddenly froze, and held back for a long time before he said dryly,
"I'm also Hanchen, but I'm just a thief...... I'm going to surrender to the big man! ”
"Now there are still 20,000 Guan sergeants and soldiers who are still resisting on the front line of Chang'an, and they all obey my orders! As long as the general is willing to surrender to us, I can order all the troops to lay down their arms and stop resisting! ”
"What is still insisting outside the city is the dog Sima Wang, and I can also make him surrender to the Han!"
"Excellent! You have enough value! Go and tell the prime minister! Ma Yan withdrew the blade expressionlessly, and there was a strong disdain in his eyes.
He is not a fool, he can see at a glance that this is just an investment by the Sima family. Sima Yi let his younger brother's family use the 20,000 Guan Zhongjun that they couldn't take away as bargaining chips, and prepared to invest in Shu Han.
This gang is not a good guy, and Ma Jian is very disgusted by this. However, he is not the hot-blooded young man who killed You Chu without saying a word, so he can't kill Sima Fu on the spot.
At the very least, he had to surrender Sima Fu's 20,000 Guanzhong troops before he could do it......
Sima Fu surrendered, and the Wei army in the entire Chang'an quickly surrendered. After entering the city, the Han army began to surrender all the way, and in just two hours, the Han army basically occupied the entire Chang'an.
At the same time, Sima Wang, who was outside the city, saw the Han army flag fluttering on Chang'an City, and immediately surrendered to Chen Shibu. However, Chen Shi was very unhappy about this, and he kept scolding when he was surrendered.
"Why do you have to stare at me! It's so bad that I don't have time to enter Chang'an City, who will compensate me for my military merits!! ”
At noon, the Han army captured Chang'an City, and Zhuge Liang led the Prime Minister's Mansion team into the inner city, marking the Shu Han ...... Ah no, it should be called Ji Han at this moment.
Since then, the Ji Han regime has officially conquered the entire Weinan, from Sanguan to Pubanjin, from Wuguan to Xiaoguan, and the entire Guanzhong land has been officially incorporated into the territory of Ji Han!
From the first year of Zhang Wu to the thirteenth year of Jianxing, the Ji Han regime went through two generations of monarchs. In thirteen years, by the struggle of the monarch Liu Chan, the prime minister Zhuge Liang, the general Ma Tan Wei Yan and others, the northern expedition from Hanzhong. Finally, in this year, the hegemony that the former emperors failed to do!
The Ji Han regime has ushered in a new era since then!
