Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 876 The Joke of History

Liwei was isolated and completely forgotten.

One month later, the good news came: the Three Kingdoms had been settled, the kingdom was destroyed, and the three Sima brothers became the sheriffs.However, under the deliberate operation of Sima Wang and others, the Xianbei knights suffered huge losses, which was already difficult to achieve; because the Three Kingdoms were destroyed by the Xianbei people, the people hated the Xianbei people and were grateful to the Han people who rescued them, and were willing to be ruled by them.

Desert Khan is still nowhere to be seen.

Sima Yi finally let go of his heart, ordered the start of farmland, and encouraged Han people to intermarry with local people, so that all their children would have Chinese surnames and be registered as Chinese.

Sima Zhao sent his confidant school lieutenant Cheng Ji to lead an army to surround Liwei Mansion and cut him off from food and drink.Li Wei climbed trees to fetch bird eggs, and dug in the ground to dig rat holes, only hoping that Desert Khan would return.Ten days later, he was starved to death in the mansion.

Sima Yi declared to the public that the former Xianbei Shanyu and the king of the Western Regions Tuoba Liwei were saddened by the death of their two sons. They were ashamed and missed the missing eldest son Tuoba Desert Khan. They died in Gancheng and were buried with royal rites.Many Xianbei people came to watch, and Sima Yi couldn't help it. Everyone saw that Liwei was unharmed and showed no signs of poisoning, but only looked haggard.Only then did Sima Yi issue an announcement that those who found Desert Khan would be rewarded with a thousand gold coins, and those who had news of him would be rewarded with a hundred gold coins.

The pitiful generation of Tuoba overlords, who stood side by side with the Xianbei tribe in the middle and east, were defeated by Zhou Cang and moved westward, and were deceived by his subordinates to drive away the eldest son.And the Xianbei clan fell apart, and it came to an end.

Zhang Gong didn't see Zhang He, but only saw Qu'a with a sad face. The general Zhang He went out to fight in Tianshui and was lured by Kuai Jun, and died in Qishan's wooden doorway!
Sima Yi fled to the west, and Qu A asked Zhang He to attack Chang'an. Zhang He thought that Qu A's tribe had just galloped back and forth between Xiping and Jincheng, and Ma Dai took Longyou again. .

Passing the street pavilion, Zhang He surveyed the terrain himself, and couldn't help sighing: Jiang Wei and Ma Di are both talented generals, but Ma Di didn't choose the right place well, and he will inevitably be defeated if he tries his best; You are brave, and you have learned from the past.

When Kuai Jun learned of the arrival of Zhang He's troops in Ji County, he was secretly happy. Sima Yi's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain was completed. He was worried that the road to Chang'an in the east had been cut off by the Han army, so he withdrew from Ji County and went south to Xi County. Stop, if Zhang Yun comes to rush, he will take the Qishan Road to Wudu and rush to Hanzhong.He hoped that Sima Yi would come from behind, but he didn't know that Sima Yi was stirring up troubles in the far western regions at this time.

Zhang Yun took Ji County without stopping, so Ma Xiu continued to pursue Kuai Jun.Kuai Jun was pleased with the penetration of the Han army, so he abandoned Xi County and entered Qishan Road.Ma Xiu won the Qishan camp, and he didn't know what to do, but Zhang Yun became greedy: Yongzhou has not many troops, and it is not a problem to attack Chang'an with Qu'a's ability and force. If he can enter Hanzhong from Qishan Road, he can fight with Yi The states are connected, and Cao Wei is completely surrounded in the heart.

Due to the impassable road, the latest news in Zhang Yun’s hands is that Zhou Xin sent troops to Yizhou a few months ago. He was eager to seize Hanzhong and also intended to relieve Zhou Xin and put pressure on Liu Xun. He also had no idea that Yizhou had been taken by Zhou Xin at this time. .

So Zhang Yun ordered Ma Xiu to continue to chase, and he led the army behind, while Sun Li's Xuanjia cavalry was not conducive to the mountain road, so they stayed behind in Tianshui.

Seeing that Zhang He was chasing after him, Kuai Jun was both happy and angry, so he made a poisonous plan: use 3000 people behind as bait, and because the Han army was chasing him, 3000 people pretended to be a large army and fled in front, and led 4000 people to prepare arrows The arrow is lying in ambush at the wooden doorway.

The wooden doorway, commonly known as Xiamen, is said to be the road that the locals must pass through when they transport the timber they cut into the city. The Qiang people built wooden gates, which were twenty steps wide and forty miles long, so they were also called wooden gates.On the east and west sides of the ancient road, there are majestic mountains facing each other, with thousands of feet standing on the wall. The road is one mile long and more than fifty steps wide. It looks like a natural gateway.

After three thousand breaks, the soldiers were defeated by Ma Xiu with a single drum, Ma Xiu entered the wooden doorway, and Kuai Jun was as stable as Mount Tai.As the sky was getting dark, Zhang He's soldiers arrived. Seeing that Ma Xiu's former army had passed safely, there was no doubt that there was an ambush. He waved back, and the Han army entered the wooden doorway.

Kuai Jun could clearly see it hidden among the vegetation on the top of the mountain. He thought to himself that he should be a general of the Han army, so he ordered to beat the drums.There was loud drumming on the top of the mountain, torches were lit, boulders and trees rolled down, thousands of crossbows and arrows were fired, the Han army was in chaos, and there was nowhere to hide in the narrow space. Zhang He wanted to get off his horse but it was too late.

Stirrups are good for galloping, riding and shooting, but dismounting is not as smooth as without stirrups, only a little bit worse.After all, Zhang Xi is 66 years old, although his legs and feet are still nimble, they are not as light as a swallow when he was young.If Zhou Cang knew that Zhang He was delayed in dismounting because of the stirrup, it was only a split second, and he didn't know how sad and annoyed he would be.

Kuai's father and son created a miracle. Kuai Yue proposed to Huang Zu to shoot Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong, and Kuai Jun designed to shoot the veteran Zhang Yun. The two famous generals died so aggrieved.

Hejian Zhang He followed Zhou Cang at the age of 25, and laid a solid foundation for Zhou Cang's rise. And he was shot to death in the wooden doorway as in history, but the opponent was not Zhuge Liang, but Kuai Jun. Could it be that history made another joke for Zhou Cang?
The Han army rushed to snatch Zhang Yun's body, and the former army Ma Xiu learned that there was a change in the rear and ran back to the wooden doorway.

Wei Jun shot all the arrows, Kuai Jun saw the Han army rushing back, his own soldiers did not dare to stay any longer, so he ordered to withdraw to Wudu.He lured Zhang Yun into a trap at the cost of sacrificing 3000 people, and he forbeared to let Ma Xiu of the former army go.On the way back to the army, Kuai Jun was ecstatic when he learned that he had shot and killed the general Zhang Yun. He only had to wait for Sima Yi to arrive in Liangzhou, but he could only wait in Wudu.

Ma Xiu retreated to Qishan camp and sent someone to report to Qu'e.Qu A was extremely shocked, he couldn't believe that Zhang He would die, and after Yu Jin, another big governor of the Han Dynasty was killed in battle!

Zhang He's prestige in the army was very high, and the Han camp was full of grief. The generals asked to go to Hanzhong to kill Kuai Jun to avenge Zhang He.Reason told Qu'e that it is time to attack Chang'an, seize Tongguan, and encircle Sizhou.Qu'a could only appease the anger in the camp. Because Ma Dai was familiar with Hanzhong, he ordered Ma Dai to go to Qishan to replace Ma Xiu, and ordered Ma Xiu and Sun Li to attack Fufeng eastward.Since leading the army and Ma Tie and others to attack the Northland.

According to the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, Pang Shanmin withdrew from the north and returned to Chang'an.Pang Shanmin is also a wise man, Qu A feared that he would have a plan, so he ordered Ma Tie to capture Feng Yi steadily, leaving only Jingzhao as the third assistant.

Qu'a was about to encircle Jingzhao and seize Chang'an, when Sima Yi's emissary Zhang Gong arrived.
