Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 226 Winning the Jiameng Pass

The appearance of a cavalry made both sides of the war tense.

The defenders on the city wall were the first to see the cavalry that appeared, and the first to know which side was coming.

Standing tall and looking far is an advantage.

However, when they saw it clearly, the generals defending the city wall would rather not have this advantage, because they saw the cavalry rushing towards them, and the flags flying were also black flags representing Jingzhou, and the leader, It was the Jingzhou general who had come to fight before——Tai Shici.

What this represents, one can know after thinking about it.

On the other hand, the Jingzhou army and Zhao Yun who attacked Jiameng Pass under the city all showed joy. The appearance of their own cavalry proved that the soldiers who pursued Jiameng Pass had been wiped out.

In this way, capturing Jiameng Pass is no longer a problem.

"Kill!" Zhao Yun shouted.

At this time, he didn't have the intention to get off his horse and command the Jingzhou army to attack the city wall.

Seeing the arrival of their own reinforcements, the Jingzhou army's morale increased greatly, and they fought harder to attack the city wall, and they were about to attack the city wall.

"You wait for the general to die, quickly open the door and surrender, to avoid death!"

Tai Shici led [-] cavalrymen to the city wall, held up Yang Bai's death-stricken head, and drank loudly.

The guards of Jiameng Pass, who had already been terrified when they saw the reinforcements from the Jingzhou Army, were now ashamed when they saw Yang Bai's head.

The [-] troops were all wiped out. How could they stop the Jingzhou army's attack with such a small number of troops.

The expectations in the hearts of the generals defending the city were broken, and they collapsed directly on the city wall with a look of despair, muttering incessantly: "How is it possible, how is it possible?"

Totally can't believe this is true.

The soldiers guarding the city, seeing the situation of the generals guarding the city, and the head of Yang Bai held in the hands of Tai Shici below the city, looked around, and someone threw down their weapons and ran down the city wall. No longer defend the city.

There was a soldier who opened the head like this, and the soldiers who didn't want to lose their lives also dropped their weapons one after another, gave up defending the city, and ran for their lives.

The escape of some city defenders also relieved the pressure on the Jingzhou army to attack the city.

quickly
The city defenders who were still resisting could not stop the Jingzhou army from climbing the city wall and began to fight on the city wall.

As more and more Jingzhou troops ascended the city wall, the defenders who were still resisting had no choice but to know that Jiameng Pass could no longer be defended.

Moreover, not wanting to lose their lives, some of the guards who fled down the city wall ran to open the gate of Jiameng Pass and let in the Jingzhou army outside.

Jiamengguan also fell.

With the Jingzhou Army entering Jiameng Pass.

The defenders who were still struggling to resist on the city wall also dropped their weapons and surrendered, except for some diehards.

But those diehard loyalists were soon wiped out, and the flags hanging on the city wall representing Zhang Lu were also pulled out by the Jingzhou army one after another, thrown down the city wall, and the black flag representing Jingzhou was planted on the city wall. Fly with the wind.

In Jiameng Pass, the forces that wanted to resist were also suppressed by Zhao Yun and Tai Shici who entered Jiameng Pass together, and controlled Jiameng Pass.

Take the Jiameng pass.

Zhao Yun also made a list to reassure the people and not let the soldiers harass the people. After all, if they win the hearts of the people, they can truly control a city. Otherwise, even if it is captured, accidents will happen.

In addition to organizing soldiers to take prisoners and clean the battlefield, they also sent patrol soldiers to patrol Jiameng Pass to prevent any accidents from happening.

The people in Jiameng Pass didn't have any objection to the Jingzhou Army taking over Jiameng Pass, and those were beyond their reach.

However, the Jingzhou army did nothing against them, so the people's sense of the Jingzhou army is still very good. ,

Moreover, under Zhang Lu's rule, the common people didn't have a good opinion of Zhang Lu. You must know that Zhang Lu was an ambitious person, and he often oppressed ordinary people like them.

Many officials under Zhang Lu's command are also greedy and often oppress them. They just dare not speak out, but the people also know the situation in Jingzhou. If they can bring them a good life, they don't mind Zhang Lu being killed Instead, accept the rule of Jingzhou.

When Zhao Yun and Tai Shici disposed of some officials in Jiameng Pass and arranged everything.

Jia Xu and Li Ru also led the soldiers and escorted the surrendered troops from another battlefield to Jiameng Pass, where they joined Zhao Yun and Tai Shici.

Have enough soldiers and horses.

Zhao Yun also ordered the people to move around in Jiameng Pass, so that even if there was any resistance, they could be forcibly suppressed.

Of course, there will still be patrolling soldiers on the streets, just to prevent some Xiaoxiao from doing something while in Jiameng Pass and causing panic.

Zhao Yun and Tai Shici handed over the management of Jiameng Pass to Jia Xu and Li Ru, and went to recruit troops.

Although this battle was a big victory, the [-] Jingzhou army also had a very large reduction in personnel. Excluding the casualties in this battle, there were only more than [-] soldiers who could participate in the battle.

And those surrendered troops are the source of their increased vitality. There are tens of thousands of surrendered troops. As long as they are subdued, they can continue to attack Hanzhong, take the land of Hanzhong, and then attack the land of Xichuan. In the round of the city, he attacked Chengdu and conquered the entire land of Yizhou.

Without soldiers and horses, it is simply impossible.

As for the management of the city, even Zhao Yun, who is brave and resourceful, is not as familiar as Jia Xu and Li Ru. After all, the management of the city is the specialty of Li Ru and Jia Xu.

Didn’t you see that Jingzhou and Jiaozhou were all governed by Jia Xu, Li Ru, Guo Jia and others, so that they have the current state? The gap is not a star and a half.

In terms of planning, they are not comparable, but leading troops to fight is the specialty of Zhao Yun and Tai Shici.

Moreover, the army always subdues the masses with strength, and subduing these tens of thousands of surrendered troops is also a very important thing, and it is worse than not managing a city.

In this era, if you have soldiers, you are the boss.

While Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Jia Xu, Li Ru and others were busy with the affairs of Jiameng Pass.

Leading [-] soldiers and horses to leave, Wei Yan, Wenpin, Zhuge Liang and others who rushed to Yangping Pass also came to the border of Yangping Pass, captured Yangping Pass, and then led the army to Hanzhong, and attacked Hanzhong with Zhao Yun and others. their goals.

However, the premise is to win Yangping Pass.

As they slowly approached the boundary of Yangping Pass, they also sent out scouts in advance to inquire about the situation at Yangping Pass, knowing themselves and the enemy, and only then would they win.

If you don't even know the enemy's situation, you attack rashly, which is no different from sending you to death.
