Chapter 527 Luo Gu
If you win Linjin City, you will get half of Guanzhong.

Chen Tai gathered rout troops in Puban, built deep ditches and high fortifications, as if to turn the entire west bank into an iron wall.

Yang Zheng looked at Hexi and couldn't help smiling wryly. Feng Yi's battle had already left Kanto with a huge psychological shadow.

This battle can be said to be the battle of the founding of the country.

Within five years, Kanto can only defend.

Within ten years, it may be possible to recover.

This is on the premise that the cool army has no other actions.

Although Chang'an and Chen Cang are still holding on, this kind of local and tactical persistence cannot reverse the overall trend in Kansai.

These two cities cannot last long.

Zhang Te has led [-] government soldiers to besiege.

Above the sand table, the Yellow River, the west of Tongguan, and the north of the Qinling Mountains belong to Liangzhou.

Yang Zheng's gaze shifted to the south of the Qinling Mountains - Hanzhong.

Zhonghui's 12 army is too conspicuous.

It is also the biggest threat in Guanzhong.

Of course, as long as Zhong Hui is not rabies, at this time, he will not come to fight himself to the death.

But the biggest threat to Yang Zheng was Jiang Wei's surrender to Zhonghui, just like in history.

In this way, Zhong Hui would eat half of the bonus that he had made when he defeated Sima Zhao in Guanzhong.

As long as Zhong Hui is not stupid, he will gather 12 troops into Shuzhong, block Jiange, and live his life in Chengdu.

The Zhonghui in history was even wilder than the current Zhonghui, and his mind was even bigger. They didn’t want to occupy the Shu Kingdom, but to gather the army of the Shu Kingdom, and let Jiang Wei lead tens of thousands of Shu troops out of Xiegu. Leading tens of thousands of troops followed closely behind, from Chencang down the Wei River, and went straight to Chang'an, killed Sima Zhao, and then divided into two groups, the infantry continued to go down the Wei River, the cavalry drove straight in, and went straight to Luoyang within five days. Take over the whole world...

Today's Zhonghui has a greater advantage than the Zhonghui in history.

The Twelve Armies are at least now under control.

Without Wei Guan, without Hu Lie, and without the constraints of Sima Zhao, he can do whatever he wants.

This guy is like entering the middle of Shu, just like a mouse entering the oil tank.

"I entrust the affairs west of Chang'an to Zichan, and the affairs east of Chang'an are entrusted to you!" Yang Zheng said to Meng Guan.

Meng Guan accepted the order generously.

Linjin, Tongguan, and Wuguan only took Linjin, but it was not a big problem. Sima Zhao would not have the strength to go west in a few years.

He has more problems to solve than himself.

As long as Huayin and Lantian are taken down, the most fertile land in Guanzhong is in his hands.

And also blocked Zhong Hui.

Sima Zhao didn't even defend Linjin, so naturally he couldn't defend Huayin and Lantian.

Meng Guanbing won the second place without bloodshed.

At this point, Guanzhong was really blocked.

No matter how strong Chang'an and Chencang are, they are still in jeopardy.

Yang Zheng didn't mind if they continued to guard.

Anyway, there are no common people in the city, and there will always be a day when the food will run out.

Yang Zheng rode [-] steps southward, crossed Chang'an directly, entered Luogu, and settled in Yaling.

While in spite of the changes in central Shu, he trained his soldiers while watching Chang'an.

Revisiting the old place again, I feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

It was here that I dreamed of going back to the Three Kingdoms.

There are countless lonely graves in Luogu, and there are still uncontained bones on the ground, which have already turned dark brown.

With the arrival of early spring, the northern land is expected to be cold and cold, and the light green in Luogu is already ready to move.

Qingshan is still there, but the world has already changed.

Unknowingly, 16 years passed with a flick of a finger.

No wonder the sage also feels sorry for the dead...

The [-]-step rider is only the first wave of troops, and the subsequent army will arrive one after another after resting in Huayin.

In a few days, Zhang Te led soldiers from Longyou prefectures, Jincheng, and Anding Prefecture to come, and they surrendered wherever they went.

Only Chen Cang and Chang'an are left.

Yang Zheng didn't talk nonsense, he wrote a letter directly, and he didn't open the city to surrender, and he didn't leave any chickens or dogs behind.

Chang'an has already been breached once, and they are familiar with the way, so this time is not bad.

The three or four thousand defenders in the city had long been frightened. After Yang Zheng promised to protect his wealth, the defender Sun Qian opened the city and surrendered.

Chen Cangcheng is still holding on.

The beating of gongs and drums every day seemed to deliberately attract Yang Zheng's attention.

But after the surrender of Chang'an, Chen Cangcheng has no meaning at all.

Yang Zheng ignored it.

Order Zhang Te to lead five thousand soldiers into Chang'an, and the rest of the army will come to Luogu to meet up.

If you take Chang'an this time, you won't leave again.

Yang Zheng resisted the desire to return to Chang'an, and stayed in Luogu with his soldiers.

All kinds of materials from Longyou and Hehuang were sent in one after another.

The livestock carcasses on Feng Yi's battlefield were slaughtered, pickled, and brought in truck by truck.

If you eat too much meat, food and vegetables will become more expensive.

This time Lu Zhi did not persuade Yang Zheng to stop the army, but encouraged him to complete his meritorious service.

The big and powerful in the four counties of Hexi also generously helped, sending food, soldiers, and equipment, especially Huangfu, Suo, and Zhang.

Yang Zheng was amazed at the richness of the things, and felt that these guys were richer than himself.

The Li family in Longxi is relatively poor, but they are willing to do their best, and they are extremely eager for military achievements.

Luo Gu's army gathered more and more, and there were already [-] people.

The tribes in Yongliang are like cats smelling fishy, ​​one by one with horses, food, bows and knives, and they take the initiative to serve as righteous followers.

There is no doubt that Yang Zheng's weight in their hearts is no less than that of Sima Zhao.

This is also one of the bonuses of war.

The pro-army is still recovering, but the Fubing and Yi Cong have high fighting spirit.

However, before the scouts and secret agents came back, Zhong Hui's letter came again.

The righteousness is, Brother Yang is now in Guanzhong, so don’t be greedy, it’s time to rest, everyone regards peace as the most important thing, and it’s enough to hand over the Kingdom of Shu to him. In the future, the two families will continue to be good brothers, and Zhong Hui is even willing to pay [-] horses a year Shu Brocade.

Yang Zheng naturally wouldn't be fooled.

Zhong Hui took over the Kingdom of Shu, without a doubt, the first thing he wanted to do was himself.

Maybe we can join forces with Sima Zhao...

Yang Zheng ignored Zhong Hui, but Zhong Hui came to tease him again, this time the scale was even bigger, he didn't even want Hanzhong, he gave it with both hands, as long as Shuzhong was given to him.

He is generous, but the problem is that Hanzhong is not in his hands at all.

Huangjinwei, Han, Le, and Yang'an, he only won Yang'an Pass.

This is tantamount to asking Yang Zheng to fight the other three places.

Besides, can Hanzhong be compared with Shuzhong?
The population, money and food of the Kingdom of Shu are all in Shuzhong, and even the talents are in Chengdu. Hanzhong is just an empty shell...

But then again, the 12 troops in Zhong Hui's hands really made Yang Zheng very afraid.

If there is a decisive battle in Hanzhong, the benefits of the Liangzhou cavalry will not be able to expand.

How to kill the clock will become quite a headache.

This guy's fighting ability is average, but he has a lot of thoughts, so he won't make the same mistakes as Sima Zhao.

In fact, wars are often not based on how strong or powerful one side is, but on who makes mistakes first.

In the same era and under the same productivity, the combat effectiveness of the army does not have an overwhelming advantage.

The cavalry of Liangzhou is formidable, but Chen Tai can come up with Wugang chariots to defeat the enemy...

The cavalry is also restricted by the terrain, and fighting head-on with the infantry will suffer instead.

Ten days later, Huayin and Lantian's relatives rushed over one after another, and a [-]-step cavalry was assembled in front of them.

The pro-military is still exhausted, and the impact of the war is not only physical, but also psychological.

But the situation in Central Shu has reached a critical point.

An important piece of information came from the secret service, that Zhong Hui was already reducing the food supply.

It has been more than half a year since the 12 Chinese troops entered Shu, and food shortages are inevitable.

In other words, Zhong Hui and Jiang Wei may collapse at any time.
