Zhuge was reborn, killed the old thief Sima

Chapter 522 Meng Zhang Fei, Coming to the Gate of the Western Regions (Fourth)
"This battlefield is supreme. Only by sitting in it personally can you understand its rapid changes."

Seizing every opportunity to teach Prince Wang, this is Zhuge Liang's current state.

After all, a lot of plans have been made, step by step, plan in groups, fight and rule, and migrate Qianghu.
Wait, wait, wait, these strategies that made Zhuge Liang turn several hairs gray are now useless for Zhang Fei.

The root of all this is actually that no one noticed Zhang Fei's existence.

Although he has been called a fierce general in recent years and is famous for fighting with Liu Bei all over the world, his record of losing more than winning and his reckless character do not make people feel that he is too much of a threat.

The world is no longer in the era of soldiers versus soldiers and generals.

Bravery is no longer the mainstream in this world, and the most important general, Zhang Fei, seems to have never been there.

Therefore, many powerful people in Liangzhou put all their forces and attention on Zhuge Liang. They felt that no matter how bad the situation in Jincheng County was.

It can take several months.

After they held Zhuge Liang in Wuwei County, Chang'an would naturally send troops to attack their rear after getting the news.

By then they will naturally be qualified to negotiate.

But the fact is that the news failed to reach Chang'an, and they became the souls of Zhang Fei's sword.

And Zhang Fei's sudden display of fast-hitting tactics shocked even Zhao Yun, Liu Bei's number one cavalry general.

I feel like Zhang Fei didn't suddenly become enlightened, but he was suddenly possessed by something.
Think about it again, I heard that when Zhang Fei was stationed in Hanzhong, he often stayed with a fortune teller named Zhou Qun.

Zhao Yun also specially sent the amulet given to him by his elder brother who died of illness for many years, and added a sentence.

"This talisman has a spirit. When worn close to the body, it can drive away ghosts and evil spirits."

Zhang Fei was also very moved after receiving the amulet, and then gave Guzang to Zhao Yun as a gift in return for him to be stationed.

Then tell him that they don't have to worry about the rest!

Although Liangzhou and Yongzhou have been struggling endlessly in these years, Liangzhou is gone and Yongzhou is gone.

After a while, this county merged with that county, and after a while, another county was split again.

But in Liu Bei's case, Liangzhou still only has the five counties of Jincheng, Wuwei, Jiuquan, Zhangye, Dunhuang, and Xihai.

After conquering all the key points, Zhang Fei did not give up.

Instead, he directly left soldiers and horses in each county, and asked Zhuge Liang to arrange officials and generals, and then he led his troops to charge out.

"There are groups of Xiaoyue clan stationed in Liangzhou living here, with more than twenty tribes, large and small."

"Rush over, or kill if you don't surrender!"

"There are Liangzhou barbarians gathered here, and the leader is named Baihu tribe"

"Rush over, or kill if you don't surrender!"

"There is Xiu Tu Hu who migrated here decades ago."

"Charge over, kill and move away!"

"Here is it"

"Sir, there's no need to say anything. Just tell Fei where they are and I'll kill them later!"

Zhang Fei increasingly felt that Cheng Gongying was the military advisor given to him by God. He was resourceful and knew the land of Liangzhou well.

Be it the Qiang people, Qunhu, Yueshi, Xiongnu, Xianbei... all the tribes that he couldn't find were all pointed out by him one by one.

And these people are far less brave than Zhang Fei, and their strategy cannot be compared with Cheng Gongying. With the two of them joining forces, there is almost no room for fighting back.The more than 20 Little Yuezhi tribes, as well as the Liangzhou Hu people known as the White Tigers, surrendered one after another. As for the Xiutu Hu people in Liangzhou who didn't know whether they were Huns or Qiang Hus, they were directly destroyed by Zhang Fei. leader.

Then they packed up more than a thousand clan members and took them away.

This precise strike once made Shi Tao and others behind them feel the pressure doubled.

Not only is the supply of food and grass almost exhausted, but also the officials who need to be dispatched are almost exhausted.

After all, not everyone has the surname Zhuge and can stand up to a government official.
Under this circumstance, Cheng Gongying once again recommended the real heroes of Liangzhou to Zhang Fei.

"Pang Yu, a member of the Jiuquan Biao family, has always been famous in Xizhou for his loyalty. When the powerful Huang Ang killed the county guard Xu Yi, only the heroic Yang Aruo was willing to recruit Qiang and Hu to avenge him.

Only Pang Qiao was willing to collect the body for him. Zhang Ji also wanted to conquer it, but had to withdraw before the trip could be completed.

Now he can be transferred out of Jiuquan and take up a post in another county. "

"Zhang Gong, the meritorious Cao of Dunhuang, was always virtuous. Although he was from a wealthy local family, he did not have any rebellious intentions. After Ma Ai, the governor of Dunhuang, died of illness, he was appointed to take charge of the place in danger.

He has been in contact with the court and worked hard to maintain local security and ensure stability.

His son Zhang Jiu was equally talented, and father and son were famous in Xizhou! "

In addition, Zhang Fei also appointed Wang Mi, who had been persuaded to surrender by Cheng Gongying, as his general to help him pacify Liangzhou.

With the joint efforts of everyone, Zhang Fei finally swept through the land of Liangzhou before the autumn of the 23rd year of Jian'an.

At the same time, Yangguan was captured again, and one step further would be the land of the Western Region.

But once they got here, they couldn't move anymore.

"This year can only end here. This Liangzhou is the western border of our Han Dynasty. On both sides are plateaus, which are difficult for ordinary people to cross.

People who are not from the local area will have trouble breathing and collapse on their own if they enter that high altitude.

On the other side is a vast sea of ​​sand. Not only is the water source scarce, it is unbearably hot during the day, but the water drops turn into ice at night.

As for this land in the Western Region, winter will soon begin, and it is beyond our ability to conquer."

"And I think this is just to alleviate the internal problems a little bit. The country of the Western Region is not something we can conquer now.

They have been away from the Han for many years. Not only is the road difficult to travel, but there are hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu among them.

Moreover, Kushan Anxi and other big countries already have strength that is no less than that of my big man, although they are not joining forces.

But if we were to send troops, the danger we would face would not be comparable to what we are facing now.

Now, we are not ready enough, so we can only try to do business and re-establish diplomatic relations.

As for the Western Region Protectorate, it can only be in name only. "

Zhang Fei, who was getting more and more excited by Cheng Gongying's words, could only sigh dejectedly, and reined in his horse at this Yangguan.

The sword on his waist was almost completely dyed red by the blood, and the eight-foot-long snake spear was shining brightly in the sun.

Above Yangguan, Zhang Fei could only snort as he looked at the flying sand outside and the barbarian cavalry that appeared from time to time.

"Sooner or later, this Western Region will still belong to me, the big man!"

Of course, it was not just Cheng Gongying's persuasion that made Zhang Fei so restrained, but the letter sent by Zhuge Liang.

"Chang'an has received the news, then Cao Hong has sent troops."
