My Ji Han Dynasty was prosperous in martial arts, but I have always convinced people with virtue

Chapter 25
Liangzhou, Jicheng.

After Ma Chao's defeat in Guanzhong, with the help of Zhang Lu, he quickly annexed the counties and counties in Longxi, and his troops pointed directly at Jicheng, the governor of Liangzhou.

Wei Kang, the governor of Liangzhou, gathered a large number of Liangzhou people and defended the city.

Wei Kang understood that Liangzhou's military strength alone could not defeat Ma Chao.

He pinned all his hopes on Xiahouyuan's reinforcements in Guanzhong.

However, there was no response there.

"Is the governor still waiting for reinforcements?"

On the top of the city, a man in Taoist uniform appeared, which surprised Wei Kang.

"you are not?"

Wei Kang had some impressions of this man. He followed the people from all over Liangzhou into Jicheng.

Compared with his handsome subordinate Zhao Ang, this man's simple face is quite impressive.

"Under Pang Tong, I met the governor."

"Phoenix chick!"

Wei Kang's face changed.

You know, he is Liu Bei's man!

"You came alone, aren't you afraid that I will escort you to Xuchang?"

"There's no need to worry about life and death. The lives of the people in Liangzhou, can the governor have the heart to ruin them at the hands of Xia Houyuan?"

Wei Kang scolded.

"Demon talk to confuse the public!"

But when Pang Tong took out the cyan jade pendant that Xun Yu handed over, Wei Kang's face changed.

"Liangzhou is full of Han people, why didn't Xia Houyuan save them?"

"Cao Cao wanted Duke Wei of the Jin Dynasty, but Lord Xunling did not approve. As Lord Xunling's confidant, everyone in Liangzhou is willing to serve as governor. Can Xia Houyuan save Liangzhou?"

Wei Kang gave a wry smile, and looked up at the night sky.

"I am loyal to the imperial court and the Han Dynasty, why did I end up like this!"

"The governor doesn't have to be like this. The matter has come to this point, the safety of Liangzhou is at the expense of the governor, and it should be judged early!"

Wei Kang looked at Pang Tong, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.

"Please sir teach me!"

"Liangzhou is short of food. Part of the food and grass for Ma Chao's trilogy and Zhang Lu's reinforcements is transferred from Hanzhong. My lord can send troops to cut off Zhang Lu's food road. Ma Chao's food shortage will not last long!"

Wei Kang bowed his hand.

"If Uncle Liu can save Liangzhou, everyone in Liangzhou is willing to follow the example of Uncle Liu."

Chengdu.

Yizhou Mufu Mansion.

"My lord, Emperor Liu has been in Shu for a long time and misses his wife, so I want to show my kindness to the lord and let Sun Shangxiang and Liu Chan enter Yizhou to reunite with my uncle."

Zhang Song clapped his hands.

"No!"

As soon as Zhang Song finished speaking, someone objected.

"Sun Shangxiang entered Sichuan with [-] soldiers and horses. If he is with Liu Bei, there will be trouble."

"Shut up! Uncle Liu Huang is the lord's brother, a relative of the Han family. Are you trying to drive a wedge between the lord and the emperor's brother?"

Zhang Song severely reprimanded.

Compared with his handsome elder brother Zhang Su, Zhang Song is short in stature, but at this moment, Zhang Song is full of momentum.

"At the beginning, Cao Cao was in trouble in Guanzhong and wanted to take Bashu. I suggested that the lord welcome the emperor's uncle into Sichuan, but you objected, saying that the emperor's uncle wanted to cause chaos. But now, will the emperor's uncle be sorry for the lord one day? Now the emperor's uncle just wants to reunite with his wife, and you say that the emperor's uncle wants to cause chaos? I really don't know if you are the lord's servants or Cao Cao's servants."

Together with Zhang Song's bitter words, the debate in the mansion became louder.

Liu Zhang waved his hand to stop the argument.

"Okay, it's only eight thousand soldiers, so there's nothing to argue about. It's human nature for Xuande to want to reunite with his wife. Tell Yan Yan to send Sun and Liu Chan north in person."

"My lord is wise!"

Zhang Song bowed his hands.

Liu Zhang left the proclamation room, and Zhang Ren, Liu Zhang's guard commander, followed.

"My lord, Zhang Song should be killed!"

Liu Zhang waved his hand and looked around, but there was no one there.

"Now is not the time to tear yourself apart with Liu Bei. He is at Jiameng Pass, and his gang of counselors and generals in Jingzhou dare not act rashly. It is better now that Liu Chan is here, and we have another bargaining chip in our hands."

"But Liu Bei is not peaceful in Jiameng Pass."

"Let him quarrel with Zhang Lu, it's best if the quarrel is dead."

Liu Zhang waved his sleeves, turned back to his living room, and went to paint.

Event point: Ma Chao surrendered, in progress,

Mission description: Obtain the allegiance of Ma Chao and his trilogy Three Thousand Xiliang Cavalry (Gold),
Mission success rate: 75%, mission success reward: 20 silver attribute points.

Event point: The Siege of Hanzhong, in progress,

Mission Description: Occupy Nanzheng before Cao Cao captures Hanzhong,

Mission success rate: 55%, mission success reward: 1 golden attribute point.

Progress in Liangzhou is going well.

First cut off Ma Chao's food and grass, and then look for opportunities to persuade Ma Chao to surrender. In this way, he can not only gain Ma Chao's strength, but also make Liangzhou good.

Next, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong will face the enemy.

Liu Bei didn't have enough troops at this time, so he found a reason and asked Sun Shangxiang to bring [-] soldiers to meet him.

In this way, Liu Zhang's worries can be eliminated, and his own goals can also be achieved.

By the way, you can buy time.

Liu Zhang really agreed.

Dozens of large ships departed from Jiangxia and headed for Jiangling City along the waterway.

When leaving, Liu Chan glanced back at Jiangxia City.

Compared with when we first arrived, the scale of Jiangxia City has expanded a lot.

There are many boats and boats, traveling on the river and going to various places, it is very lively.

Although these [-] soldiers were taken away, there are still [-] troops stationed in Jiangxia City, and the entire Jiangxia County has a total of [-] troops garrisoned.

At this time, the two armies of Wei and Wu were facing each other, and this force was more than self-defense, and it could even beat the autumn wind of Soochow and Cao Wei.

However, at this moment, Liu Beifang's war direction is still in the north of Jingzhou. Jiangxia County is a remote area, and the most important task is to contain it.

In addition to Sun Shangxiang, there were three generals, Lu Lingqi, Ma Xiu, and Ma Tie.

They led the cavalry and marched with the big ship by land and water, but within a few days, they had already reached Jiangling City.

Entering Sichuan from Jingzhou, the waterway is turbulent and difficult for large ships.

In Jiangling, I changed boats and continued westward, entering Yizhou.

White Emperor City.

This city is a key node to enter Yizhou, and it is connected with Baishuiguan and becomes the gate of blessing and disaster for Yizhou.

If there is a loss in the two directions, then Yizhou will be in crisis.

The location of Baidi City is quite dangerous. It was built on Baidi Mountain and surrounded by great rivers. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

When Liu Chan's ship docked at the port of Baidi City, the guards and soldiers warmly welcomed them.

From the looks of it, Old Liu did a pretty good job behind enemy lines.

Many soldiers in this city have been favored by Lao Liu and have become pro-Liu Bei faction.

Liu Chan received quite a lot of courtesy.

The guard of Baidi City even gave Liu Chan a bronze-level spirit beast.

Climbing Ape!

Liu Chan rode on the shoulders of the mountain-climbing ape, and as the mountain-climbing ape climbed among the mountains, he soon climbed to the tower on the top of the mountain.

Liu Chan had to sigh, Liu Zhang was weak, and his words were true.

Perhaps he is indeed a good monarch who keeps the land safe and the people safe, but unfortunately, in troubled times, the law of the jungle is practiced.

Compared with Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness, Liu Zhang's benevolence and righteousness cannot conquer the enemy from the outside, nor can it convince the soldiers inside.

After all, it's just food for others!
