Chang'an has been defeated, which does not mean that Guanzhong has been defeated.

Although Zhang Fei's face showed joy, he didn't immediately pick up a few jars of wine and drink it dark.

Chang'an was taken, but because of Zhang He, it still held on for more than a month, and the vanguard reinforcements of the Wei army have come, and in the future, the large army of Wei reinforcements will also come.

How to defend the counterattack of Wei, hold Chang'an, and take Guanzhong is a problem in front of Zhang Fei.

Maybe taking Tongguan is the time to open champagne.

"How's the situation in the city?"

It's late at night.

Chang'an City in the middle of the night, after being captured by the Han army, showed a different kind of silence.

The moonlight shone on the crumbling walls, reflecting the blood stains and messy arrows.

The streets of the city were littered with embers of war, and occasionally a few faint fires flickered, as if those unextinguished lives were struggling tenaciously.

The air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke and blood, a smell that made people frown and feel a mixed emotion welling up in their hearts.

A few barking dogs were occasionally heard in the distance, adding to the desolation and desolation.

"The turmoil in the city has been stabilized, and the female dependents in the camp have been sent to various families, and those who are homeless are now temporarily placed in the Changle Palace, and they can be selected to be palace maids, and those who are not good can be selected for them."

Sun Qian had already basically figured out the situation in Chang'an City.

"This Zhang He, in order to defend Chang'an City, is really unscrupulous."

Zhang Fei sighed on the side.

In order to let the Wei army in Chang'an City defend Chang'an, they directly suffered the people of Chang'an.

Countless people have been ruined.

Most of the women who came to the camp to be prostitutes were also ruined.

The harm is evident.

"There are many people in Jingzhao Du and Jingzhao Wei who ask Zhang He to be killed to calm the people."

The Jingzhao Du clan in Chang'an City, the children of the Jingzhao Wei clan, were basically killed by Zhang He.

It must be known that those who are rated as officials in Chang'an City are basically the talented children of these two families.

It's a relatively capable one in the family.

Although there are a few guarantees for the rest, it is certain that the family's vitality will be damaged.

"Zhang He is still capable, how to deal with it, it is still up to His Majesty to do it."

Even if he wants to kill Zhang He, he can't kill him.

Killing Zhang He at this moment is undoubtedly a heart-warming move.

Although Zhang Fei looks rough, he is as careful as a hair.

He still knows in his heart what people's hearts can and can't receive.

"How much grain and grass is there in the city?"

Chang'an City is a huge city, the city is very huge, in recent years, the grain and grass in Guanzhong are basically gathered in Chang'an City.

"There is enough grain and grass in the city for 100,000 people to support one year."

"So little?"

With the current scale of the Han army, that is to say, these grains and grass are only enough for three months?

"The population of Guanzhong is not abundant, and there are many wars, so it is still the credit of the Wei official Zhong Xuan to save so much grain and grass."

Hearing this, Zhang Fei was noncommittal.

In the previous rebellion in Liangzhou, Cao Zhen sent troops to quell the chaos, and I am afraid that many grains and grasses were also transferred in Chang'an.

can save 100,000 people for a year's grain and grass, which can be regarded as Zhong Xuan's management of Guanzhongdao, and the Han army broke the city quickly, so the Wei army did not burn the Cangcheng in the city.

After all, the logistics line of the Han army is too long, and the problem of grain and grass is a big problem for the Han army to attack the pass.

"To stabilize Guanzhong, the general will send troops from Nanyang to attack Wuguan, and we will wait for Wuguan from Lantian to attack Wuguan, as long as this line is opened, Jingxiang's grain and grass can be continuously transported to Chang'an."

Chang'an was captured, and the capital of the Han Kingdom was naturally placed in Chang'an.

However, the population of Guanzhong is not abundant, and it is inevitable to move some people in.

Plus the nobles and the forbidden army.

At least in a year or two, it will be impossible for the grain and grass in Guanzhong to meet the needs of the Han capital.

It must be to transport grain and grass from place to place.

Once the population of Chang'an increases, with the size of the Guanzhong Plain, it will inevitably not be able to meet the requirements of Chang'an.

That's why

Wuguan is to be defeated.

"Do you have any armor blades left in your arsenal?" Zhang Fei continued to ask.

"There are thousands of sets of armor, and swords don't count." Sun Qian replied honestly.

There can be thousands of sets, which proves that there were enough armor in the Chang'an arsenal before.

After all, the Wei soldiers defending the city had already consumed a lot of armor.

"Is there any money left?"

"The treasury is empty, and the money and silk have been rewarded to those soldiers, although some have been collected, but the number is not much, and I am afraid that it will not be enough for the reward."

The money that is scattered is naturally consumed and hidden.

It is a difficult thing to take it all back.

"Sergeant's reward, wait until you win Guanzhong!"

The military general uses his life, so naturally it is impossible to work for nothing.

How can there be morale without rewards?

This is indeed a problem.

"The moat outside the city and the earth and rocks around Chang'an City must be removed as soon as possible."

There are too many earth and stones, and the Wei army is coming, isn't Chang'an a dangerous city?

"The doctor of the Academy of Sciences has already planned to build a chapter palace outside Chang'an City, and now it is used for the camp first."

Han Chang'an City, there are Weiyang Palace, Changle Palace in the city, and there is Jianzhang Palace outside the city.

Since Liu Bei is known as the Great Han, all the regulations are based on the Chang'an of the Han Dynasty.

Weiyang Palace, is the main palace of the Western Han Empire, the political center and national symbol of the Han Dynasty, commonly known as the West Palace, where the emperor also resides.

Changle Palace is the residence of the Queen Mother, also known as the East Palace.

Jianzhang Palace is a palace built by Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty in the first year of Taichu. In order to facilitate the passage of Emperor Wu, there is a flying pavilion road across the city, but it is not from the Yang Palace until the Jianzhang Palace.

Its scale is large, and it is known as "thousands of households".

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once met and governed the government here, and went straight to Shanglin Yuan.

Of course

The current Shanglin Yuan is already bare.

That's not a single tree left.

"Build a camp, that action must be fast, the Wei army is afraid that it will arrive in a few days." Zhang Fei's face was not without worry.

"Why do you need to let the Wei army come to Chang'an? Defend against the enemy outside the tomb! ”

The Han army's current troops in Guanzhong are no worse than those of the Wei army.

Why wait for them to attack, and directly confront them.

Especially after the Han State now got the war horses of Liangzhou, the disadvantage of the cavalry has been greatly smoothed out.

When there was no benefit of war horses before, Zhao Yun dared to fight with the Wei army.

Now that he has a war horse, are you still afraid of his tiger and leopard riding in Wei?

"Your Majesty should be asked to go to Chang'an as soon as possible and transfer it to all the counties in Guanzhong."

Now that Chang'an has been taken, it is time to integrate the forces of the counties in Guanzhong.

Even if the troops of the counties of Chang'an are not integrated, the people of the counties of Chang'an must be mobilized, with grain and grass.

These grains and grasses in Chang'an City are the best if they can be saved.

Who knows when this battle will end?

"Your Majesty's holy car has already set off from Maoling, and it will be Chang'an soon."

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "The hearts of the people in the city, as well as the Jingzhao Du clan, the hearts of the Jingzhao Wei clan still have to be enveloped, the thieves will not kill first, kill those who are fighting for the tiger, and hang their heads at the east gate to calm the hearts of the people!" ”

Zhang He did evil, naturally it was impossible for him to go out in person, he had minions.

Those officials and generals who won Zhang He's trust with the lives of Jingzhao Du and Jingzhao Weishi were good targets.

Coupled with those untamed Hu soldiers, killing them also made the people in the city vomit.

"In this way, Chang'an is stable!"

Chang'an is stable, but the Wei army outside Chang'an is always a threat.

"Zilong, you and Wen Chang go together to garrison Baling."

"No!"

Zhao Yun immediately took the order and left.

"Next, just wait for the situation to change."

Zhang Fei's frowning brows relaxed slightly.

He has not rested for many days since he went to war.

In the past, it was a big battle for a few days and nights, and the body would not be good.

But now that I'm old, my energy is not as good as it used to be.

Fortunately, there is a successor to the Han Dynasty.

His son Zhang Bao can be regarded as famous.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fei finally had a smile on his face.

Three days later.

The emperor has gone from Maoling to the outside of Chang'an City.

When the emperor traveled, the scene could only be described as vast.

Liu Bei rode the emperor Luanyu, escorted by more than 100 gold-armored guards, and at the back of the convoy, carrying all kinds of palace people, counting thousands of people, the scene was grand.

Next to the team, cavalrymen in fine armor escorted the patrol, and foot soldiers carried various flags to accompany them.

Knock knock~

Drums beat.

The sound of the Emperor's music.

Liu Bei traveled, in addition to the ceremonial guards, the entourage of hundreds of officials, plus the families of soldiers of various ethnic groups in Guanzhong, there were tens of thousands of troops, stretching for more than ten miles.

"This is Chang'an!" In the huge luanyu drawn by six white horses, an emperor dressed in a crimson crown robe sat in it.

Next to him, there stood two internal officials.

One is holding the Gaozu snake sword (Gao Fang), and the other is holding the heirloom jade seal (Gao Fang).

This man wearing the emperor's crown is naturally Liu Xuande, the emperor of the current Han Dynasty.

Liu Bei's spirit is not bad, there is a red light on his face at this moment, looking at the giant city of Chang'an, his eyes are shining.

The Chinese character flag on the head of the city fluttered, making Liu Bei's tears flow unconsciously.

"I have finally taken down the old capital of the Han Dynasty, and I will finally live up to the expectations of my ancestors."

How many years of thinking day and night, how many years of ups and downs.

Now the dream is finally about to be realized.

The excitement in Liu Bei's heart was indescribable.

"Your Majesty, Zhang He, is this person going to be killed?"

Fa Zheng rode a war horse and followed next to Luan Yu.

"Killing can make the people angry, and not killing can win the hearts of the generals of the Wei State."

The people of Chang'an are miserable for Zhang Hehuo.

But letting go of Zhang He can also play another role.

"What does Kong Ming think?"

On the other side of Luan's drive, Zhuge Liang said: "This person did not listen to the persuasion to surrender, and stubbornly defended Chang'an, so that the people's resentment boiled, and finally surrendered when the city was broken. ”

Zhang He's life does have a certain use value.

But dead, for the current Guanzhong, it is even more useful.

"That being the case, three days later, Zhang He and the people will be beheaded in Dongshi, and then an edict will be posted: exempt the people of Jingzhao Yin from paying taxes for one year!"

Liu Bei has already had experience in how to collect his heart.

Zhang He's life and death have now been sentenced in such a hurry.

Bone Lulu~

The wheels are rolling.

Luan drove close to Chang'an, outside Chang'an City, there were already people waiting for it, just to see the appearance of the Han Emperor.

Seeing that the emperor of the Han State relied on such a grand foundation, the people in Chang'an City suddenly had a sense of submission in their hearts, and they knelt down one after another, shouting:

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

At the gate of the city, Zhang Fei led the generals and subordinate officers in the army to kneel in front of the city gate early.

In the midst of the emperor's chariot, an internal official with an edict in his hand walked out, and he shouted loudly:

"The general of the chariot cavalry has a meritorious service in capturing Chang'an, and he is given the same ride on the emperor's chariot. All the soldiers have made meritorious contributions to the city, and Chang'an City has been drunk for three days, so as to work for the soldiers! ”

Zhang Fei immediately got up, stepped forward slowly, took the edict with both hands, and walked into the emperor's car.

When the surrounding generals heard this, they were all excited, and immediately shouted:

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

After using their lives in the army, they can't eat any meat for a year, and now they can eat meat and drink wine for three days, how can they not get excited?

In the midst of Luanyu, another internal official holding the edict came out, and I saw him open the edict in his hand and shouted loudly: "The people of Jingzhaoyin have suffered many disasters, I am worried about the people's livelihood, I am exempt from taxes for one year, and I will rest with the people!" ”

Hearing this, those Chang'an people became excited one by one.

Long live the voice.

Of course

Liu Bei is exempt from taxes, but he didn't say that he doesn't levy grain, these are two different things.

"The people's hearts are available! Guanzhong is the hinterland of my Han, Chang'an is the Xijing of my Han, and there are people's hearts to follow, so why worry about the uncertain world? ”

Liu Bei, who was among the emperors, was full of emotion.

Today, Liu Bei entered the city in such a big battle, and he was drunk for three days to stimulate the morale of the army, and exempt Jing Zhao Yin from paying taxes to the people of Chang'an.

Just these two tricks have already made the people of Guanzhong have a good impression of Liu Bei.

Now these people are thinking in their hearts:

Your Majesty's benevolence is indeed true.

What Wei State?

It's really unfamiliar.

We are the people of the big man!

Give your heart for Dahan!

Disloyal! Honest!

In the long live voice of the people's soldiers, Liu Beiluan drove slowly into Weiyang Palace.

Specifically, it is in the Chang'an Town Guard Mansion next to Weiyang Palace.

After all, the current Weiyang Palace is still in a state of ruins.

If you want to build it, you have to wait until the fighting stops.

Everything now is still for the sake of satisfying the war.

Although Chang'an has been defeated, the battle with Wei has only just begun.

In Chang'an City, the generals of the army, the famous men of the Guan sergeant clan, the officials of the Guanzhong family, and the hundred officials of the Han State were entertained.

Until late at night, Liu Bei was free.

Because of physical reasons, Liu Bei didn't drink a sip of wine, and his mind was very clear at the moment.

In front of him, Zhang Fei drank a lot of wine, and now he was sleepy-eyed, so he almost knelt and snored.

Like Fa Zheng, Zhuge Liang, Wu Yi, Du You, Chen Zhi and others, although their faces were slightly red, their thoughts were still clear.

"What's going on in Guanzhong?"

Fa Zheng immediately stepped forward and said: "Right Fufeng, Jingzhaoyin's counties have been attached, and the county orders of each county are either attached or killed by the local people. ”

There is the support of the local gentry.

In other words, it is the exchange of interests between the Han State and the local heroes in Guanzhong, and the speed at which Jingzhao Yin changed his flag can only be described as speed.

However, this is also normal, the local Haoqiangshi clan is not really loyal to the Wei State.

After all, the time for Wei to rule Guanzhong was still too short.

The local scholars may have had a greater sense of identification with the Han dynasty than with the Wei state.

Of course

Nor were they really loyal to the Han Kingdom.

Or in a word, whoever wins they help whom.

Chang'an was captured by the Han Kingdom, and those scholars who were still waiting and watching now know the situation in Guanzhong.

"What is the situation with Zuo Fengyi?"

"Zuo Feng Yi is too shou is Zheng Hun, who is favored by Cao Wei and still refuses to be attached."

Zheng Hun?

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment.

"His brother is Zheng Tai?"

Zheng Tai is rarely talented and heroic. Born in filial piety, he refused to participate in the bus expedition.

In the last years of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the general He Jin assisted the government, recruited as a scholar and a servant, and moved to serve the imperial history. Don't use the admonition, abandon the official and go.

Dong Zhuo's dictatorship, worship Lang. Together with He Hao and Xun You, they conspired to kill Dong Zhuo, escaped to Yuan Shu, and served as the assassin of Yangzhou.

"It's from the Zheng family in Xingyang, and my brother is Zheng Tai."

Du Yu said on the side.

"His brother is a loyal minister of the Han, but now he serves the Han thief? Order a messenger to go with my edict, and if he refuses to surrender, he will send troops to attack him! ”

There are three counties in Guanzhong.

The second of the three counties is already in the hands of the Han State.

If Zuo Fengyi returns to the Han Kingdom, he can close the door to Guanzhong.

"Your Majesty will arrange it."

When the law is right, it is commanded.

"Where are the Wei reinforcements?"

"The vanguard cavalry army is in Zheng County, under the command of Xiahou Shang, and there are only a few thousand cavalry. The infantry army has passed the Tong Pass and is under the command of Zhang Liao, with tens of thousands of people. ”

The cavalry is the vanguard, and Zhang Liao's department is the Chinese army.

It is necessary to defeat or repel Zhang Liao's part before he can eat this piece of fat in Guanzhong.

"In the direction of Yu Elk, Cao Zhen attacked several times, although they were all repelled by the hussar generals, but Yu Elk was broken through by the Wei army, I am afraid it will be a matter of time."

There are enemies behind you!

The good mood of winning Chang'an is slowly disappearing, and Liu Bei knows in his heart that Cao Zhen and Zhang Liao, and even Cao Pi behind Zhang Liao, will definitely not be able to eat Guanzhong if they don't repel them.

The Han Kingdom still needs a victory before it can stand firm in Guanzhong and eat Chang'an completely!
