Chapter 493 Destiny
The embankment of a thousand miles collapses in the hearts of the people.

Yang'an Pass was breached, and the situation changed.

The Wei army had a foothold and divided the Kingdom of Shu into three parts, blocking Jiange in the south, separating Hanzhong in the east and west, and cutting off Jiang Wei and Liao Hua in the west.

Tazhong and Yinping have no meaning.

The large amount of food and supplies hoarded in Yang'an Pass solved Zhong Hui's urgent need.

The situation in Shu was jittery.

I don't know when, the nursery rhyme of the country's subjugation began to be recited all over the country of Shu again.

The sun is scorching hot, the willows are green, don't chase the horses of the eastern mountains, but follow the clouds of the western mountains.

Hanshou, who stood in front of the Jiange, was hit the hardest. Hu Ji, the governor of Hanzhong, was terrified and led the defenders to retreat into the Jiange.

Shu Lord Liu Chan sent Zhang Yi and Dong Jue to lead another [-] Chengdu elites to rescue Yang'an Pass.

During the crash, Jiang Wei's expression was terribly gloomy.

The least problematic places are the first to have problems.

Fu Qian and Jiang Shu are both his confidantes, who have followed him for more than ten years and have always been loyal. No matter how clever Jiang Wei was, he would never have imagined that the hearts of the people could not be guarded.

Overcast clouds swept across the sky, and the cold wind kept whimpering.

"General!"

Outside the hall, dozens of loyal and brave generals Zuo Ban knelt on the ground.

The entire barracks was eerily quiet, and the soldiers were panicked.

The strongest Yang'an Pass in Hanzhong can be breached, what else can't be breached?

For decades, this is the first time that Wei Jun has made such great progress.

The Shu army generally became suspicious of the strategy of gathering troops and gathering valleys.

There was a lot of discussion in private. If Wei Yan's strategy of defending the siege was still followed, there would be no such matter.

But when Jiang Wei stood in front of the crowd, all the panic and rumors suddenly dissipated.

"It's just a Yang'an pass, and it's just a matter of taking it back. Don't you all want to be loyal to me as a great man?" Jiang Wei is still the same Jiang Wei, the cold wind caressing the wrinkles on his face. Although the hero is late, his ambition is still strong Not subtracted.

The soul of the Shu army lies in Jiang Wei, and the survival of the Shu Kingdom actually lies in Jiang Wei.

If he wavered, the Shu army would collapse immediately.

"How dare you! We are about to follow the general in a bloody battle and take back Yang'an Pass!" the generals clasped their hands together.

"Take back Yang'an Pass!" In the barracks, more than ten thousand soldiers raised their swords and spears and stabbed at the drowsy sky, shouting hissingly.

They are the only ones left in the inheritance of the great man.

Jiang Wei bowed his hands and saluted the generals.

After a while, flames rose in the camp, and the thick smoke was blown away by the cold wind.

Yang'anguan is lost, and Dazhong has no meaning.

The fate is not in the big man, how can manpower be able to reverse it?
Zhuge Wuhou can't turn things around, so what can Jiang Wei do?
Jiang Wei looked back in the direction of Liangzhou in the northwest, and the gloom in his heart deepened, "Yang Zheng, let's see how you make a move!"

The Shu army in Tazhong was exhausted, joined forces with Liao Hua, abandoned Tazhong and Yinping, gathered all the horses, young and strong, gathered an army of more than [-], and withdrew to Baishui, just in time with Dong who rushed to Hanshou. Jue and Zhang Yi converge.

Zhong Huichang drove straight in, and the fighting spirit of more than [-] troops was high.

The more than [-] Shu troops could not resist, and retreated into the Jiange to hold on.

The road to Shu is as difficult as going up to the blue sky. The road from Dajian to Xiaojian Pass is [-] miles long. At the stand, leaning against the cliff and laying stones as the gate, there is a pavilion guard,

Natural danger is not enough to describe this place.

But such natural dangers have never really kept a corner of Sichuan.

At the foot of Dajian Mountain, Wei Jun's tents are like clouds in the sky, scattered among the green mountains and green waters.

If it weren't for the overwhelming killing spirit, it would be a wonderful sight.

"When the wind blows, the clouds fly, Vega comes back home, and the warriors guard the four directions!"

Zhong Hui is dressed in white, holding his sword in front of the army and singing, with his long sleeves stretched out, his sword light flickering, sometimes as fast as thunder returning to the clouds, sometimes as slow as weeds floating on the water.

The Yitian sword turned into bursts of cold light.

Those who can be famous for their calligraphy will naturally not be too bad at swordsmanship.

All the generals applauded.

Jiang Shu was invited to be the seat on the right, before all the Wei generals.

"The ambition of a man in life is to carry a three-foot sword, attract hundreds of thousands of people, defeat the enemy and conquer the enemy, expand the territory, and achieve immortal fame. Now that Yang'an Pass has fallen, Hanzhong will be mys. Hurry up!" Zhong Hui said. Withdrawing the sword heartily, picked up a bottle of wine, and handed it to Jiang Shu personally, "The first credit goes to General Jiang!"

Jiang Shu hurriedly bowed down, "It's Shu Sansheng's luck to meet the governor!"

Zhong Hui had a great heart, helped Jiang Shu up and said with a smile, "Haha, it is God's will that you and I meet today."

"Huang Hao is in trouble now, and the scholars of Jingzhou and Yizhou are fighting outside. Your Majesty... the Lord of Shu is dark and weak, and it is true that the kingdom of Shu has fallen from heaven. This subordinate is willing to lead an army as the vanguard, break through Jiange, and attack Chengdu!" After receiving the courteous reception from Zhong Hui, Jiang Shu's hatred for the Kingdom of Shu became more intense. Only by destroying the Kingdom of Shu and turning more people into traitors can he prove that he is right.

Wang Jun also cupped his hands and said, "That's exactly the case. Now that the people of Shu are in panic and morale is low, it's the right time to destroy Shu in World War I."

Zhong Hui shook his head, "There was Jiange Jiang Wei in the front, and Yang Zheng in the back. Although Yang'an has been captured today, the two cities of Han and Le are still there. Don't be reckless. Hanzhong is enough."

When Yang Zheng was mentioned, both of them had nothing to say.

From now on, the world situation will be in this battle, how can Liangzhou stand by and watch.

"Yang thief enters Hanzhong, the cavalry is useless, and the governor will destroy it when he comes! If he enters Guanzhong, Chang'an is as solid as gold and cannot be attacked, then a partial division of our army can go north from Chencang to attack Xiaoguan and cut off the grain road for the western thieves. The governor's trick!" In Wang Jun's eyes, no matter how hard Yang Zheng struggled, he would die.

Such a fiery flatterer, but Zhong Hui was unmoved, "In a few years, Yang Xingyun was able to rise from a poor place and sweep Yongliang, how can he be a man who has earned his name? The key to this battle is the It depends on how he makes a move, our army has Yang An Guan in hand, just rest and recuperate."

After taking down Yang'an Pass, Zhonghui is already invincible.

The Jiange is very dangerous, and there are Jiang Wei, Zhang Yi and other famous generals in Shu, and tens of thousands of Shu troops are defending, so there is really no need for Zhong Hui to fight them to the death.

Moreover, the Wei army was blocked in Hanzhong for several months, and it was also exhausted. To attack the more dangerous Jiange would be tantamount to seeking a dead end.

But there is still the way it should be.

Zhong Hui ordered the generals to send out troops in turn, advance with clamor and bluff, and build camps in front of the Jiange, sometimes feinting to attack, sometimes defending.

The Shu army fought many times, intending to recapture Yang'an Pass, but was blocked by the Wei army.

The situation in Hanzhong gradually fell into a confrontation.

But this confrontation is obviously beneficial to the Wei army.

Every day that passes, the situation in Hanzhong gets worse.

Moreover, there have been rumors in recent days that Sima Zhao will raise an army that will pour the country, and come straight to Chang'an.

The Kingdom of Shu fought against the entire Central Plains in Hanzhong with the strength of one state. The longer the time dragged on, the weaker the country became.

Zhong Hui secretly kept correspondence with Jiang Bin, Wang Han and others.

As always, I will not mention the persuasion to surrender, but only talk about what I have seen and heard from the north and the south, and the old affairs of the previous dynasties.

He also ordered Fu Qian to be buried at the foot of Dingjun Mountain, and a monument was erected to show his loyalty, and to restrain the soldiers of the Shu army who died in Yang'an Pass.

The morale of the Shu army was taken away, and even the fighting spirit of the frontline soldiers continued to weaken.
