Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 504

Regardless of the situation in Nanpi.

The Jiangdong water army that went up the river has also reached Jiangxia and fought with the Han army guarding Jiangxia. Both sides fought very aggressively and refused to give in to each other.

Although the Jingzhou Navy only has [-] troops, it is no less than the [-] Jiangdong Navy.

You come and I go, each has casualties.

For a while, it was difficult to tell the winner.

Zhou Yu wanted to lead a hundred thousand Jiangdong navy to break through Jiangxia and enter Jingzhou.

But Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Jia Xu, Fazheng and others didn't just want to keep Jiang Xia.

After all, according to Liu Qi's order, as long as Jiang Xia is around, they can do whatever they want for the rest.

and so.

With their abilities, how could they wait for the Jiangdong navy's attack with peace of mind, only defense, and only offense is the best defense, not to mention, they also want to make contributions.

Seeing the battles in Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou, as well as the contributions made by their colleagues, they are also a little envious.

And in Jiaozhou.

Liu Cong also led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to meet the Wu army who invaded Jiaozhou and was led by Huang Gai.

The two sides also camped five miles apart.

Afterwards, there were various battles.

Liu Cong borrowed Zhang Liao and Chen Gong from Lu Bu, and he also had Jiang Wan as his assistant, not only because of Huang Gai, but also had a faint advantage.

With the advice of Chen Gong and Jiang Wan, it was also possible to stop the [-] Wu army and let them lose their soldiers and generals.

Although the tens of thousands of Wu troops led by Huang Gai were not completely defeated, Huang Gai did not have any advantage, and he wanted to evacuate the rear for more than ten miles.

If you retreat again, you will withdraw from the boundary of Jiaozhou.

In the end, Huang Gai also stabilized the situation. Although he lost the opportunity, he still stabilized. He was in a stalemate with the soldiers and horses led by Liu Cong, and was not driven out of Jiaozhou.

But the advantage is on the side of the Han army.

As for the 30 Wei army led by Cao Cao himself, although they have not yet reached Fushui Pass, they have already passed Qishan Mountain and will arrive soon.

After all, the 30 Wei troops departed from Chang'an, bypassed Chencang, entered Yizhou via Qishan, and rushed to Fushuiguan. It also took time, and the marching speed was fast but not the fastest, slow but not slow.

It can only be said to be an average speed.

And Zhang Ren, who led [-] soldiers and horses to guard Fushui Pass, had already made all preparations. No matter when the Wei army arrived, he would be able to defend immediately.

Keep 30 Wei troops out.

Although the 30 soldiers and horses seemed a bit weak in the face of the [-] Wei army, they did not lose their fighting spirit and waited for the battle to come.

Hanzhong.

After Liu Qi captured Yizhou, the two brothers Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei also joined Liu Qi's command.

Zhang Lu was still in charge of Hanzhong's government affairs as the prefect of Hanzhong, while Zhang Wei was in charge of Hanzhong's soldiers and horses. Together, the brothers also managed Hanzhong very well.

At least there was no situation that Liu Qi didn't want.

In fact, Liu Qi also knew that Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei were not the most suitable candidates to guard Hanzhong.

However, when Hanzhong was first captured.

There is no suitable candidate to be stationed in Hanzhong, and the two brothers Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei originally managed Hanzhong, and no one is more familiar with them than them.

After finally settling down.

Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei did not make any mistakes, and managed the land of Hanzhong according to the regulations issued by Liu Qi, and they did not intend to betray him.

Liu Qi would not do something like cross the river and tear down the bridge, which would make the people under his command feel chilled.

The two brothers Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei were allowed to continue to manage the land of Hanzhong.

It's just that Zhang Lu was not allowed to touch the military power, but Zhang Wei was allowed to take over the military power. Zhang Lu only needs to manage the affairs of Hanzhong with peace of mind.

Because Zhang Wei is much more reliable than Zhang Lu.

And now in Hanzhong.

Zhang Wei also summoned the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, assembled in Hanzhong, and were ready to go.

He had received an order to lead the army to Jiange when Wei Junbing surrounded Fushui Pass, to increase the pressure on Wei Jun and relieve the pressure on Fushui Pass.

if it is possible.

It can support Fushui Pass and assist Zhang Ren in guarding Fushui Pass.

As long as the Wei army is kept outside the Fushui Pass and persists until the army returns to help, the crisis can be eliminated.

Zhang Wei also obeyed Liu Qi's order, while mobilizing soldiers and horses, while mobilizing food and grass, and on the other hand, he also sent out scouts to keep an eye on the situation of the 30 Wei army.

Once Wei Junbing surrounded Fushui Pass.

He will immediately wave his troops to Jiange, looking for opportunities.

And he is also very clear that if the Fushui Pass is breached, the 30 Wei army will be able to sweep across the land of Yizhou, and will no longer be able to stop the Wei army's offensive.

not to mention.

After joining Liu Qi's command, after these years, he has long since lost any thoughts in his heart.

Moreover, since Liu Qi took over the land of Yizhou, the lives of the people in Yizhou have changed a lot. Not to mention how rich they are, but they still have surplus food.

What's more, although the two brothers were descended from the army, Liu Qi didn't treat them differently. Even if he didn't fully trust them at the beginning, he gradually changed later.

It also allowed the two brothers to blend in.

faced with these situations.

How could he still have any ideas, and he also wanted to guard the land of Yizhou.

however.

Without Zhang Wei's knowledge.

However, a group of uninvited guests came to Hanzhong City.

And it was his elder brother Zhang Lu who sent someone to welcome him in.

After all, the people in Yizhou were all focused on the 30 army led by Cao Cao himself from Qishan. No one noticed that when Cao Cao raised his troops from Chang'an.

There were [-] Wei troops, divided into two groups, and left secretly without attracting any attention. They left Xiegu Pass and came to the territory of Hanzhong.

Keep walking along the path, avoiding crowded places.

Even the scouts everywhere didn't find it.

It is also the [-] elite Wei army led by Sima Yi as the coach.

The group of uninvited guests who entered the city of Hanzhong were also dozens of people including Sima Yi, Yu Jin, and Le Jin.

It seems that some kind of agreement has been reached with Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu also sent people to welcome Sima Yi and others into the city, and also entered the prefect's mansion.

This happened.

It didn't attract any attention. It should be said that no one knew that a group of Wei troops had arrived near Hanzhong City.

As the prefect of Hanzhong, Zhang Lu also welcomed the Wei army who now wanted to attack the land of Yizhou into Hanzhong City.

Zhang Wei was also kept from it.

in the military camp.

Zhang Wei is checking everywhere. After all, the war will come soon, and he also needs to make sure that there will be no problems.

After checking.

Just want to go back to the mansion.

Then he saw his elder brother Zhang Lu's cronies approaching.

"General, my lord prefect invites the general to come to the mansion!" said the confidant.
