Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 684 Great, Wei Wenchang
Uh~ Liu Bei looked at Fazheng, and sent troops?Zhuge Liang was selling iron in Chengdu, so he was short of trousers. If he sent troops at this time, it was not to force Zhuge Liang to hang himself.

Fazheng coughed twice, "General, our army has been fighting for two years. The soldiers are exhausted and need to rest urgently. This is not the time to avenge General Guan. Moreover, Hanzhong still needs troops to garrison, and Jingzhou is also insufficient." Liu Bei's men are not There were no deserters, and there were 2000 deserters and sick patients. Fazheng originally wanted Liu Bei to keep Zhang Fei in Hanzhong.

Zhang Fei is not unreasonable, and cupped his hands: "Okay, I will rush back to Brazil, recruit soldiers, buy horses, accumulate grass and grain, and train soldiers. The day my brother goes out, I will be the vanguard."

Finally, Zhang Fei was stabilized first.Liu Bei sighed secretly, Yun Chang, why did you lose Jingzhou? If Jingzhou is still there, and all the southwest is in my hands, why should I be afraid of Cao Cao and Sun Quan?
Zhang Fei didn't want to be the prefect of Hanzhong, so he rushed back to Brazil.Everyone thought that Liu Bei would use Ma Chao or Zhao Yun as the prefect of Hanzhong, but Liu Bei unexpectedly appointed Wei Yan, the rebel general, as the prefect of Hanzhong.

"Wen Chang, is 3 horses enough?"

"Thirty thousand is enough! If Xia Houshang and others lead an army of [-] to attack, I will swallow it for my lord! If Cao Cao personally leads an army of [-] to attack, I will reject it for my lord!"

"Excellent!" Liu Bei was overjoyed.

Liu Bei didn't use Ma Chao, of course he wanted Ma Chao to resist the Qiang people, the fundamental reason was that Liu Bei didn't dare to use it!Most of Ma Chao's body is the blood of the Qiang people. It can be said that he is audacious and treats human life like nothing.He dared to send troops to Guanzhong when Ma Teng was in Yedu, and he dared to turn against Han Sui when Cao Cao's troops were overwhelming the border, which shows that he is cruel and cold-faced.Giving Hanzhong and 3 horses to Ma Chao, Liu Bei couldn't guarantee what Ma Chao could do.If it is light, it will support soldiers to stand on its own, and if it is serious, it will plot Bashu.

Liu Bei didn't use Zhao Yun. Although Zhao Yun was brave, he used troops well. The fundamental reason was that Zhao Yun couldn't understand Liu Bei's intentions.Occupying Jingnan Guiyang, the prefect Zhao Fan surrendered and wanted to marry Zhao Yun. Liu Bei thought it was a good thing, but was rejected by Zhao Yun. There will be no grievances. If there is such a relationship as in-laws, Zhao Fan will not surrender so quickly.Occupying Sichuan, in order to enable Jingzhou people to settle here with peace of mind, and to balance the Jingzhou gentry and Yizhou gentry, Liu Bei planned to reward Jingzhou with luxury houses and fertile land, but was discouraged by Zhao Yun.Can't keep up with his own ideas, don't know how to make expedients, and hand over Hanzhong to Zhao Yun, Liu Bei is worried.

On the other hand, Wei Yan was very pleased with Liu Bei.First of all, when Liu Bei was defeated in Xinye, it was Wei Yan who opened the gate of Xiangyang to welcome Liu Bei. Although Liu Bei did not dare to enter the city, he was deeply impressed by Wei Yan.Secondly, Liu Bei captured Jingnan, and it was Wei Yan who beheaded the prefect Han Xuanxian Changsha, so that Liu Bei took advantage of the opportunity when Zhou Yu sent troops to Jiang Ling to quickly occupy Jingnan.Furthermore, Wei Yan solved the Wuxi Man almost perfectly without a single soldier. The barbarian king Samoke attached himself to Liu Bei and made Liu Bei gain a firm foothold. Even if Jiangdong occupied Jingzhou, Samoke still did not deviate.In the end, when Liu Bei had nothing to do, Wei Yan presented the Micang Mountain conspiracy, attacked Dingjun Mountain by surprise, beheaded Xiahouyuan, and established the victory in Hanzhong.The only shortcoming is that the relationship between Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan is not harmonious. Wei Yan happened to be placed in Hanzhong, and the two were out of sight and out of mind.And Wei Yan is capable of both literary and military skills, and has a strategy in mind, so he is competent.

Wei Yan boasted to Haikou, and naturally some people were not convinced. "If Xia Houshang and his like lead an army of [-] to attack, the lord will swallow it! If Cao Cao personally leads an army of [-] to attack, the lord will reject it!" What a big tone!Is Wei Yan going to be Guan Yu's second?

Wei Yan saw that some people were dissatisfied, so he cupped his hands and said: "Hanzhong is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the roads are narrow and dangerous. Although we have few soldiers, we only need to build more fortresses in the dangerous places, and station them in the fortresses. One man guards the gate and ten thousand men don't open it." .If you encounter those who underestimate the enemy and venture forward, you can lure them to go deep, use surprise soldiers to intersperse their way back, encircle and annihilate them!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed, with Lei Tong, Chen Shi, and Gao Xiang as his lieutenants, [-] troops were stationed in Hanzhong, and Fazheng, Zhao Yun and other troops returned to Chengdu.

Wei Yan ordered Lei Tong and Chen Shi to organize garrison fields. He and Gao Xiang surveyed the terrain and landforms, and sent people to the mountains to recruit refugees. They took in about [-] refugees in just one month.

Wang Ping, a native of Dangqu, Brazil, is familiar with the geography of Hanzhong. He was raised by his grandfather He's family when he was a child, so he was called He Ping again. Later, his surname returned to the original Wang surname.Because of the war in Hanzhong, he led his tribe to flee to the mountains. Hearing that Liu Bei had captured Hanzhong, he led hundreds of tribesmen and hundreds of vehicles with luggage to defect.Wei Yan talked with him and thought that Wang Ping was a simple man with a strategy of a general, so he recommended him as Yamen general.

With Wang Ping's live map, Wei Yan saved a lot of trouble, and ordered Wang Ping's shadow graphics to mark dangerous places everywhere, and Gao Xiang led people to build fortress barriers.And Wang Ping ordered the villagers to search for refugees and refugees, spreading that Liu Bei is the king of benevolence and righteousness, so more people came out of the mountains. some popularity.

Cao Cao returned to Chendu, and Cao Pi reported to Zhang Liao that he accepted the truce from Zhoucang, and released Xu Huang and the others on the condition of Shouchun and Wanwan. With the arrival of the rainy season, the plague was finally contained.Although many people criticized Zhang Liao's actions, Cao Pi supported Zhang Liao, thinking that Zhang Liao's handling was a rare talent for a general, and he should be rewarded.Cao Cao thought so, and added Zhang Liao as the general of Pingdong, the governor of Huainan, Zhong Yu as Sima, and [-] people from Hanzhong moved to Huainan.The two were ordered to do a good job in the post-disaster reconstruction of Huainan, with the full assistance of Lu Qian, the prefect of Qiao County, and Li Dian, the general, and Zhang Liao was clearly ordered not to go to Hefei without authorization.Although Cao Cao learned that Lu Meng, the governor of Jiangdong, had died of illness, he still believed that it was time to win over Sun Quan, and the time to win Hefei had not yet come.

After continuous battles, Cao Cao's team was somewhat exhausted. In order to plan for the Battle of Huainan and supply the Battle of Hanzhong, the food and grass accumulated in the past few years was almost exhausted. Cao Cao urgently needed to recuperate and accumulate strength.He transferred Cao Zhen back from the front to train with Pang De, Xia Houba and others.

Grand Tutor Yang Biao was heartbroken and terrified because his beloved son was killed, so he resigned and returned to his hometown on the grounds of being old and sick. Cao Cao agreed to his resignation, but he was not allowed to return to his hometown and stay in Xudu to recuperate from his illness. Zhong Yao took over the post of Grand Tutor .

Cao Pi also told Cao Cao the good news that Zhou Cang's chief counselor, Zhou Wen, died of illness, and three generals Wu Anguo, Hao Zhao, and Niu Gai were dismissed. Not only that, Zhou Cang hadn't shown up since returning to Xuzhou, suspected to be ill.This news made Cao Cao very happy. He was the one who could understand the pain of losing the feeling of being the chief adviser and losing the generals one after another. A real illness, not another conspiracy.
