Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 364 Zhang Junyi

"General, there is an urgent secret message from Chang'an."

Now, as soon as he heard that there was another letter, Zhang He felt that his scalp was numb and his head was buzzing.

"Put the letter down and go ahead."

For several days, Zhang He did not move his troops, only supporting the dispersal of the pass step by step, consuming Zhang Fei's supplies and manpower.

The Lei Gong Pao is indeed powerful, but Sanguan is not a bamboo fence. As long as he continues to persist, Zhang Fei will definitely return without success.

However... letters for help from Shanggui came one after another.

He could feel Guo Huai's urgency from the gradually changing tone of the letter.

According to Guo Huai, as long as Zhang He uses his cavalry to walk along the Guanlong Avenue, rush for reinforcements, and use the superiority of the cavalry to defeat the enemy in the field before Liu Chan can gain a foothold.

Then go all the way south, cooperate with Guo Huai, use the plain terrain in front of Shanggui's house to attack Liu Bei's army, and you will definitely be able to break it and win!

Although Liu Bei has a large number of troops, they are basically infantry. With Cao Wei's brave and skilled cavalry attacking in the plains, he will definitely be able to reproduce the story of Zhang Wenyuan and Fei defeating Sun Quan!

All in all, the core idea of ​​these letters for help is just one sentence.

As long as you, Zhang Junyi, launch an attack, everything will be fine.

To be honest, given the current situation, Zhang He actually didn't want to go to Longyou to wade into the muddy waters at all.

He had heard about Liu Chan's achievements. Different from other people's opinions, Zhang He actually believed that Liu Chan was truly capable.

No matter what, it is impossible for a fool who was promoted to be trapped in Jingzhou at the age of thirteen and then fight Guan Yu for thousands of miles and turn the situation around.

He had never met Liu Chan, let alone Liu Chan, but he knew Guan Yu, and he was not a master who would spoil a real idiot.

Since Liu Chan has led his troops northward, it is clear that he knows what you think!

Under this situation, Zhang He felt that Longyou was like a bloody mouth with fangs exposed, just waiting for him to plunge into it...

But although he wanted to give up the barren land of Longyou, he didn't dare to actually reply to the letter and refuse.

Guo Huai, who is Guo Huai?

That was a direct descendant of the Guo family in Taiyuan.

The great-grandfather of the clan, Guo Zun, was the governor of Yanzhou in the Han Dynasty. He once served as the official of Shouguanglu and was ordered to patrol the world.

His grandfather Guo Quan was a great farmer in the Han Dynasty.

His father, Guo Jian, was the prefect of Yanmen County in the late Han Dynasty.

The Guo family belongs to a high-ranking family in Taiyuan and has been officials for generations. It is an old-style noble family.

During the Battle of Hanzhong, Guo Huai was dissatisfied with Xia Houyuan's character and style and was sick for a long time. When Yuanzi died, Lao Guo immediately jumped out to clean up the mess.

But what about Zhang He? I can only endure Yuanzi's ubiquitous attempts to make things difficult for me, and stand firm in front to withstand Lao Liu's fierce attack...

Can someone else try to take the sick seat at this time? The late emperor immediately cured you, and you will never get sick again.

Even the new emperor Cao Pi and Lao Guo can still speak well.

When Cao Pi ascended the throne, Guo Huai was late to Beijing to congratulate him because he fell ill on the road.

When His Majesty questioned him, he once said: "In the past, when Yu the Great summoned the princes in Tushan, Fangfeng came late and was killed. But now the whole world is celebrating, but you are late. Why?"

Lao Guo said: "Because the Five Emperors used virtue to enlighten their subjects, the Xia Dynasty declined, so they used punishment. I was born during the prosperous period of Tang and Yu, so I know that I will not be killed like Fangfeng."

Zhang He admitted that Lao Guo was really good at flattering him.

Obviously he was trying to excuse himself, but in fact he was praising Cao Pi and his son for their ability to govern the country and recreate a prosperous age.

However, if it were Zhang He who was late to congratulate His Majesty on his accession to the throne, even if a word of the conversation did not change, he would not be exempted from punishment even if he was not killed.

Where is Lao Guo?

After hearing this, His Majesty was greatly pleased, and instead promoted him to be the governor of Yongzhou, and also made him the Marquis of Sheyang Pavilion...

This is the power of family.

Therefore, even if Zhang He no longer wanted to go, he would not dare to refuse openly... Even if Guo Huai were in his position, he might have decisively given up on himself. "Alas..." Zhang He sighed and finally opened the secret letter from Chang'an in his hand.

He always had an ominous premonition that Xia Houmao was planning to command him.

The bad news is that what the letter said was really commanding him, asking him to send troops to rescue Longyou.

The good news is that the person who pointed fingers at him was not Xia Houmao, but an unexpected person...Qi Gong Cao Rui.

Of course, it was not appropriate to call it a command. Xiahou Mao sent Cao Rui's letter intact, adding that he planned to act according to Cao Rui's plan.

Cao Rui's original text did not have any intention of overstepping his authority, but rather sincerely requested the garrison in Guanzhong to send troops to aid Longyou.

He also gave a concise explanation of the importance of Longyou and the terrible consequences if the Shu Han got Longyou.

"Rui knows well that it is inappropriate to get involved in military and political affairs, but in order to protect the country of Wei, why should he spare his life? All the princes in the court, Rui should tell him personally, so that the general will not be punished after the war.

"The war opportunity is fleeting. I hope that the general will put the country and the country of Wei as his top priority. If there is a thunderous wrath in the future, Rui Zi will shoulder the responsibility."

After reading this letter, Zhang He thought for a long time, and finally sighed again.

He has sighed more times recently than during the Battle of Hanzhong.

Everyone in the court knew that Cao Rui was the only candidate for the crown prince, but it was no secret that His Majesty did not like this talented son.

If you do what Cao Rui said, it will be easy for people to misunderstand his position. Zhang He doesn't want to be involved in something that is extremely easy to lose his head like Li Chu, but...

"People have to do something, and then they can do something..." Zhang He, who was born in the military but liked elegance, murmured, and finally made his final decision.

There are always times in a person's life when he wants to follow his heart more than calculating interests.

Zhang He believed that Cao Rui might have been like this when he wrote this letter.

For a moment, the corners of Zhang He's mouth rose, feeling as if a scholar would die for his confidant.

"Somebody come!"

"exist."

Zhang He stood up solemnly, flicked his sleeves, and strode out: "Instruct the knights in the army to prepare their troops and prepare to go out with me!"

"Yes!"

The left general Zhang He was so moved by Cao Rui's letter that he decided to put aside his distracting thoughts and fight with all his strength!

However, General Zhang, who was born in the military but liked elegance, and Qi Gong Cao Rui, who was brought up by Cao Cao... were destined not to have the same ideas.

……

Zhang He stationed 20,000 troops in Chencang, including 3,000 elite cavalry.

Moreover, it is a configuration of one rider and two horses. The cavalry are all equipped with fine leather armor, and there are even hundreds of mysterious knights.

The horse is a fine steed, and the man is a northern knight who grew up on a horse in his youth.

You can control the string while riding and shooting from a distance, and you can attack with a gun from a short distance.

In his early years, Cao Cao used his tiger and leopard cavalry to gallop around the world. Today, the tiger and leopard cavalry have long been scattered among the border troops and the elite cavalry of various armies.

Among Zhang He's cavalry, many were the sons of elite veterans of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Three thousand elite cavalry are a terrifying force that can completely determine the outcome of a major battle.

Zhang Wenyuan was able to defeat the 100,000 Wu army with 800 warriors, relying on the terrifying mobility and frontal field combat capabilities of the cavalry.

Having decided to send troops for rescue, Zhang He no longer hesitated and mobilized 3,000 elite cavalry!

"Liu Chan, let me learn from you in this battle. How capable you are!"
