Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 507 Fushui Pass

Zhang Lu used means.

After taking over Hanzhong City, the city gates were also closed tightly, and no one was allowed to enter or leave the city, so as to prevent the news from leaking out and let other places receive the news.

And then affect the following things.

Take over the soldiers and horses from Zhang Lu, and add the closed city gates.

The people in the city also felt that something was going to happen, and it was not an ordinary thing.

to the back.

Zhang Lu opened the city gate and put Wei Jun into the city, which proved that Hanzhong was about to change.

The spies in the city also noticed this situation, and anxiously wanted to leave the city, but facing the closed city gate, they had no choice but to be anxious.

And the defenses everywhere have also been strengthened a lot.

It is very difficult to get out of the city, and it is impossible to pass the news out.

Although the flag on the city wall has not been replaced, everyone knows that Zhang Lu, the prefect of Hanzhong, has betrayed Liu Qi and surrendered to Cao Cao.

After a day.

The soldiers and horses composed of [-] Wei troops and tens of thousands of original Hanzhong defenders left Hanzhong City and marched towards Fushui Pass.

However, there are still some soldiers and horses left in Hanzhong City, led by Zhang Lu's cronies, under martial law, but the guard has not been lifted, and the gates of the city are also closed tightly, and no one is allowed to enter or exit.

Fushui Pass.

One after another, black flags were planted on the city wall and fluttered in the wind; many soldiers also held spears, standing upright by the city wall, looking into the distance.

As the general guarding Fushui Pass.

Zhang Ren was also inspecting various places on the city wall. After all, there was not much time before the 30 troops arrived. He also needed to inspect the defense situation of various places to ensure that there would be no mistakes in the end.

At last.

Zhang Ren was also holding his saber, standing on the edge of the city wall, frowning, looking at the distance outside the pass.

He also knew that this time it was a critical moment. According to reports, the 30 Wei army could arrive at the evening at most, and it might be earlier.

But in Guanzhong, there are only 30 soldiers and horses. Facing the [-] Wei army, he has no idea.

Even though he knew that Liu Qi had secret arrangements, he was still worried.

It can be blocked for a while, and how long it can be blocked, and it will cost a lot. I don't know if it will be able to hold on until Liu Qi leads his troops back to help.

but.

He also doesn't express what's in his heart. You must know that he is the chief general. If the chief general doesn't have confidence, how can he make the soldiers under his command have confidence.

Once the soldiers lose their morale, they are not far from defeat.

"Report!"

At this time.

A soldier quickly walked up the city wall and rushed over here.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Ren also recovered from his contemplation, looked at the soldiers running over, and asked.

The soldier came in front of Zhang Ren, cupped his hands and said: "General, there is a troop five miles away from the pass, flying our army's flag, and the leader seems to be the prefect of Hanzhong!"

heard.

Zhang Ren frowned, and said under his command: "Go down!"

"promise!"

The soldier didn't say much, he put his hand on his sword, turned around and left.

Wait for the soldiers to leave.

Zhang Ren also frowned, feeling a little puzzled.

He knew that Zhang Wei should not be in charge of the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, but Zhang Wei. If Zhang Wei led the army to come, he would not be puzzled.

Moreover, leading troops directly to Fushui Pass for support was somewhat different from the plan.

But he didn't think too much about it. When Zhang Lu came with his troops, it would be clear. What's more, he didn't know what happened in Hanzhong, and he didn't have a spy report, so he didn't know much.

The most important thing is.

No one found out that there was a Wei army secretly coming out from Xiegu Pass and going straight to Hanzhong.

That's why it didn't attract anyone's attention.

With Cao Cao personally leading an army of 30 from Qishan, it also attracted attention. Who would have thought that Cao Cao had secret arrangements.

I got the news that Zhang Lu led his troops to come.

Originally, Zhang Ren wanted to check the city wall and wanted to leave, so he stopped going back to Guanzhong, but stood on the city wall and waited. After all, when he returned to Guanzhong, he still had to come when Zhang Lu led his army to arrive. once.

Slowly time passed.

From above the city wall, one can also see a black line appearing in the distance, heading towards Fushui Pass.

soon.

That black line also came into the eyes of the defenders of the city wall.

It was a troop in black clothes and black armor, densely packed, with tens of thousands of people, and there were black flags fluttering in the wind.

And Zhang Lu, who was the leader in military uniform, also caught Zhang Ren's eyes.

from time to time.

Zhang Lu led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to the Fushui Pass, stopped and looked at the Fushui Pass.

Immediately, he rode out, went under the city wall, looked at the city wall, and said, "Is General Zhang Ren on the city?"

Obviously also noticed the existence of Zhang Ren.

After all, he and Zhang Ren are also old acquaintances. When he was fighting with Liu Zhang, he also had many fights with Zhang Ren, so it is not surprising that he can recognize him.

"Exactly!" Zhang Ren replied, "I don't know why Zhang Taishou came here?"

"According to the command of the lord, I led the soldiers from Hanzhong to help General Zhang. My second brother was suddenly sick in bed, so I had to stay in Hanzhong and I led the troops to come!" Zhang Lu said.

Without waiting for Zhang Ren to ask, he has already explained, after all, he is in charge of government affairs, and Zhang Wei is in charge of military power. This is also a well-known fact, and Zhang Ren will also ask.

But the excuse was prepared early in the morning.

"That's it!" Zhang Ren said.

He didn't have any doubts. After all, he didn't have a spy report, so there wouldn't be any problems, and it might be like what Zhang Lu said.

however.

Among the soldiers in the rear that Zhang Ren didn't pay attention to, there are several people, but they have been paying attention to the situation on the city wall.

"General Zhang, now that the Wei army is about to arrive, can we let our army enter the city first, and then we can talk?" Zhang Lu said.

As soon as this word comes out.

The eyes of several people who were staring at the situation on the city wall at the rear also flashed.

"Yes!" Zhang Ren said, "Open the city gate!"

After confirming Zhang Lu's identity, and Zhang Lu led his troops here with Liu Qi's order, it is impossible for him to let Zhang Lu lead his troops to stay outside the city.

What's more, the force is only tens of thousands of people, and facing 30 Wei troops outside the city, it is just hitting a stone with an egg, and it will definitely be swallowed by the Wei army.

As a colleague, he would not do such a thing.

He also asked the soldiers to open the city gate and prepare to let Zhang Lu and others enter the city.

"Thank you General Zhang!"

Zhang Lu bowed his hands to Zhang Ren on horseback, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, waiting for the city gate to open.

Moreover, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses behind Zhang Lu also had some changes, but they did not attract attention.

squeak~~
There was a small sound.

There was also a gap in the city gate.

Immediately, it slowly opened towards the left and right sides, and the gap became wider and wider.

Sitting on the horseback, Zhang Lu looked at the city gate slowly opening in front of him, and held the hand holding the rein tightly, with blue veins showing on the back of his hand.
