I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 648, Shu Zhong Clan Who Don't Know Good and Evil
After arranging the candidates for the end, Liu Bei immediately began to mobilize the army, preparing to withdraw from Hanzhong.

Now Liu Bei's army in Hanzhong is mainly composed of three parts, namely the surrendered soldiers in Hanzhong, the soldiers in Shuzhong, and the soldiers who came to Hanzhong from Jingzhou to support them. Among them, there are more than [-] soldiers in Jingzhou alone. Many battles have cost more than [-] people, but there are still [-] to [-] soldiers in Jingzhou.

And Liu Bei intends to lead [-] troops from Jingzhou to escape from Shuzhong, because he knows that even if the troops from Hanzhong and Yizhou are mobilized, they will be defeated because the morale of the army is exhausted. Combat power is more assured.

Liu Bei also knew that time was running out. After selecting the troops, he led the 5 troops to retreat towards Berkshire the next day.

Dagan Barracks in Hanzhong.

Xu Wei also got the news that Zhang Baiqi occupied Shuzhong after Liu Bei knew about the changes in Shuzhong.He immediately summoned the senior officials of Dagan, and then excitedly said to everyone: "Zhang Baiqi has captured Chengdu and captured Emperor Han. Central Shu has already belonged to Dagan!"

Wang Ge was pleasantly surprised when he heard the news: "Brother Zhang Baiqi conquered Shuzhong and captured Emperor Han! This time Liu Bei can't escape with his wings!"

The emperor has been captured, how can the morale of the Han army remain!
Fu Yun also laughed and said: "My current momentum is like a bright sun, unstoppable. Liu Bei is nothing more than a mantis arm to block the traffic. This time he will be crushed by us. Congratulations to the subordinates here, and finally can be unified. The world is over."

Now Liu Bei is the only enemy of Daqian, and now this enemy will also be defeated. Fuyun and the others think that there is no one to stop them from taking the world.The other senior generals of the main army were all very happy. After more than ten years of fighting, the world is finally about to be unified!

At this time, a soldier rushed in and shouted loudly: "Report, the ruling, there is a change in the camp of the Han army, and tens of thousands of troops are retreating towards the direction of Berkshire!"

Fu Yun laughed and said, "Liu Bei who is in power wants to escape!"

He thought it was impossible for Liu Bei to escape!

But Wang Ge immediately reacted and said: "Brother Zhang Baiqi has not yet entered Berkshire, Liu Bei has gone to Berkshire, and it is really possible to escape down the Yangtze River. Even if he escapes quickly, maybe It can also take away tens of thousands of troops, which is very unfavorable for Yang Feng to attack Jingzhou!"

It is very difficult to travel upstream from Berkshire to Central Sichuan, but it is very simple to travel downstream from the Yangtze River. You only have to avoid a few places with many undercurrents in the Yangtze River, and it is easy to travel a long distance with an army on board!

"We want to wipe out the main force of the big man in Hanzhong!" Xu Wei said irritably.

The endless war has made Xu Wei tired, Xu Wei does not want to continue wasting time, but prepares to completely eliminate the big man in one battle!
The situation at this time is very favorable to Daqian. As long as the main force of the Han army is wiped out in Hanzhong, the battle of Yangzhou and Jingzhou will almost certainly win Dagan.No matter how stubborn Liu Bei is, without soldiers, it is impossible for him to resist.

Wang Ge immediately said: "We will launch a full-scale attack so that Liu Bei can't escape even if he wants to. At the same time, we can spread the situation in Shuzhong among Hanzhong, so that the Han army's position in Shuzhong has been captured by us, and the morale of the big man will collapse. !"

Fu Yun also said: "The ruler can also notify Brother Zhang Baiqi to occupy Jiangzhou in advance and cut off Liu Bei's retreat!"

Xu Wei obeyed the opinions of the two men, first gave orders to Zhang Baiqi, and then mobilized an army of 17 troops in Hanzhong to attack the Han army's front on the Micang Mountain line with a radius of 300 miles. Shouted to the soldiers of the Han army: "Chengdu has been breached, your little emperor has been captured, and now Liu Bei has fled back to Jingzhou, don't waste your life for Liu Bei, think about your wife and children at home!"

Dagan's onslaught was already unstoppable, and the soldiers on the front line were panic-stricken when they heard such horrifying news. They asked their commanders whether Chengdu had been breached and where the general was!
Many people even thought that not long ago, tens of thousands of troops left the front line, did the general escape at this time!The soldiers of the Han army became more and more frightened as they thought about it. What they said was very likely to be true!
Liu Pan naturally strongly denied these rumors, but he couldn't invite Liu Bei to come forward. Although he tried his best to comfort these soldiers, this did not reassure the soldiers in Hanzhong at all.
On the contrary, because Liu Bei did not show up, the fear in these soldiers' hearts was exacerbated, especially when these soldiers found that many familiar Jingzhou Army soldiers had disappeared, which aggravated the rumor even more.

What the Dagan army said is true, the middle of Sichuan was really broken by them, the general has already taken the Jingzhou people to escape, leaving them to die on the front line!

This kind of persuasion spread throughout the Micangshan front, causing the morale of the Han army to plummet. Although there are nearly 10 soldiers left here, their combat effectiveness is completely gone.Faced with Dagan's attack, groups of soldiers began to surrender. The first to surrender were soldiers from Hanzhong. Hanzhong was their home, but now [-]% of the land in Hanzhong was occupied by Dagan. They I wanted to surrender a long time ago.

And this act of surrender made the Dagan army continue to break through the Micangshan front. Even if Liu Pan tried his best to command the army to block the progress of the Dagan army, the soldiers had no morale and their combat effectiveness was extremely low. Even led by Hanzhong soldiers, Shu The soldiers in the army also began to surrender to the Dagan army.

At this time, Zhang Baiqi's army had gradually entered the Yumeng Pass. He originally wanted to block Liu Bei at Baishui Pass, but he didn't expect Liu Bei to be so decisive and fled directly to Berkshire.Zhang Bai rode on horseback and ordered Guan Hai to lead an army of 5 troops to Jiangzhou to block Liu Bei's escape!
And he continued to lead the army to continue to advance towards Hanzhong.

Five days later, Zhang Baiqi's army occupied Baishuiguan, cutting off the back road and granary of the Hanzhong army.

The news spread to the camp of Micangshan. Facing Zhang Baiqi who came from the middle of Shu, the soldiers of the Han army could no longer deceive themselves. Everything the Dagan army said was true. The 10 troops in Micangshan Completely collapsed, their defense line was like paper, easily broken by Xu Wei, and 10 troops were captured.

Liu Pan, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and dozens of senior generals of the Han Dynasty were all captured by Xu Wei, and the Yizhou Army of the Han Dynasty completely disappeared in the long river of history!
After Zhang Baiqi and Xu Wei met, he explained the whole process of the Battle of Central Shu to Xu Wei, and even wanted to gather Han Xiandi and others to give Xu Wei a surrender ceremony. The emperor and all civil and military officials performed in person. only once a year.

But Xu Wei is not interested in such things. Emperor Xian is just a puppet. Such a person bowing his head to him does not make Xu Wei very excited. Liu Bei is not much different. After all, he was his idol back then. Playing the Three Kingdoms game for more than ten years, these are all memories of Xu Wei's youth!

And the other civil and military officials of the big man are just moths to Xu Wei, and there is nothing to see!Escort them to Ji County for trial later, let them reform for a few years, and repay the people's fat and people's ointment they owed!
Now that Zhang Baiqi has finished showing off, the results of this surprise attack are naturally extremely brilliant. Maybe hundreds of years later, the allusion of "fighting Hanzhong brightly, darkening the swamp" can be left behind.

But there are many problems left over from this battle, especially Zhang Baiqi's acceptance of the aristocratic family in central Shu.They were enemies in the past, so Xu Wei could naturally uproot them without mercy, and relegate them to the border of Dagan to guard the border.

But now they are considered their younger brothers, and they are barely considered their own people. It would be a bit too much to kill them all like this. Originally, Xu Wei wanted to transfer 50 people related to the aristocratic clan from central Sichuan to Xiliang, but now it is not easy to order This order is up!At the very least, I am ashamed to demote others to the frontier.

Xu Wei thought for a while, and ordered Zhang Baiqi to be the governor of Yizhou, and asked him to completely capture the entire counties and counties of Yizhou and restore the territory of the Han Dynasty. After that, it will be their land.At the same time, Zhang Baiqi was also ordered to find a way to get the elites in Sichuan to leave Chengdu. In short, Xu Wei could not accept that they would continue to stay in Yizhou.
And Xu Wei's later order directly made Zhang Baiqi embarrassed. He entered Shuzhong to take care of his younger brother, and now it's his turn to feel uncomfortable.

Regardless of these, Xu Wei left 3 elites for Zhang Baiqi, and then he occupied and disbanded a part of the army. He occupied and led 5 soldiers to pursue Liu Bei. Liu Bei caught!
At this time, Liu Bei's escape route was extremely difficult. The roads in the land of Bashu were rough and difficult, not to mention the land of Bashu is full of aristocratic families who want to use Liu Bei's head as a stepping stone. Soldiers harassed Liu Bei's army. It can be said that his journey was extremely difficult, and he marched dozens of miles a day.

When Liu Bei walked to Xuanhan County, the defeated soldiers in Hanzhong sent news that the entire Hanzhong army had been wiped out, which made Liu Bei speed up the pace of the march.

But after walking for less than 3 days, Liu Bei got another bad news. The Jiangzhou on their front line was occupied by Guan Hai of the main army, and now Guan Hai led an army of 5 to attack Liu Bei.

There is a strong enemy in front, and there are pursuers in the back. For a while, Liu Bei wants to die!The morale of the Jingzhou army also began to collapse, and a large number of deserters fled here every day, and even Liu Bei couldn't stop it.

In the end, it was Zhao Yun who proposed to divide the troops to stop the main army and buy time for them to withdraw from Berkshire!

Liu Bei listened to Zhao Yun's advice, and continued to divide his troops to stop Xu Wei's pursuit, and at the same time speed up to leave Berkshire. The defeated general couldn't resist Xu Wei's attack at all.

So when Liu Bei escaped from Yufu, there were only a few thousand soldiers and horses left around him. Compared with the 10 Jingzhou army that Liu Bei brought to the Han army, the Jingzhou army that entered Hanzhong was completely wiped out.

But even though Liu Bei is already in such a miserable state, his crisis is still not resolved. The Yuzhou Army led by Yang Feng has already begun to surround Fancheng and Xiangyang, and the defense of Xiangyang is imminent.

And Lei Gong in Yizhou didn't want to let Liu Bei go like this, but ordered Guan Hai to lead an army to attack Jingzhou and help Yang Feng completely capture Jingzhou!
Faced with such a crisis in Jingzhou, Liu Bei didn't even have time to grieve, so he managed to recruit some soldiers from Nanjun, and the Yufu City stationed there wanted to block Guan Hai's army in Yizhou!
The reason why Xu Wei didn't pursue Liu Bei was because there was turmoil in Yizhou, and he had to go to Chengdu to frighten the powerful and powerful families in Sichuan!

This matter has to be talked about separately from Zhang Baiqi and Xu Wei. At the beginning, Xu Wei gave Zhang Baiqi two tasks. One is to fully occupy the entire Yizhou. After Zhang Baiqi got the elite soldiers, he began to divide his troops , Occupying counties and counties in central Shu.

And with the help of the nobles in central Shu, this mission was accomplished very well. It can be said that the counties and counties in Central Shu surrendered when they saw the banner of Dagan. This road can only be regarded as taking over, and there is no war at all!

But something went wrong with the second thing. Zhang Baiqi summoned the aristocratic clans in central Shu and wanted them to move to Sili. Relegation to the border is a bit unhuman, but if you go to the center of the Sili world, you can't say that you are demoting them. This can be regarded as uprooting the power of their ancestors. If they go to Sili, they will be outsiders. The big families are broken up and separated, so that they can at most become affluent ordinary people, and there is no need for trouble. Moreover, Sili is still short of population, and their arrival has greatly prospered Sili's economy.

However, Zhang Baiqi’s approach was unacceptable to the nobles in central Shu. Their bottom line is that they can hand over the land (they also know that the land is the bottom line of Dagan!) The former students and officials can also take the imperial examination in the Dagan court again. (In this regard, they are still confident that they can beat the big dry mud legs!)
But they never expected that Dagan would actually want to drive them out of their hometown in central Sichuan. The aristocrats and nobles all looked like birds, relying on connecting with the local people to do their best.And if you go to a strange place, you will become a soft-legged shrimp, and there is a high probability that the family will be down.

Now the nobles in central Shu will stop doing it. They think they have meritorious service. Doing it like this is like killing a donkey. , Lei Gong is too disrespectful.

So the nobles in the middle of Shu planned to teach Lei Gong a lesson and let him see their strength. It happened that although Zhang Baiqi occupied the middle of Shu, the local officials had not had time to replace them with big officials, and their power was still there. exist.

As a result, resistance from the people began to appear in the entire Bashu land.This made Zhang Baiqi feel a little helpless. He could be merciless if he was asked to wipe out the powerful and noble families, but this time he faced resistance from the general public.

They also pay the most attention to public opinion when they work hard. It is impossible to kill these people as rioters like a big man. In this case, the turmoil in central Shu feels that it is getting worse. Zhang Baiqi feels that he has not suppressed enough, so he can only ask Xu Wei Call for help.
