The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 98: Zhong Hui's Luck ([-])
"Yang'anguan is lost? It's lost... It's lost." After listening to Liao Hua's narration, Jiang Wei felt dizzy.After a while, he quickly grabbed Liao Hua's neck, shaking like crazy: "What is the court doing? Didn't I already write to His Majesty asking CD to send reinforcements to strengthen the defense of Yang'an Pass in March this year? Yuan Jian, are you here again?" What are you doing? Why do you start from CD when the enemy army has entered Hanzhong?!"

"General, stop!" Liu Min, Lai Zhong and the others saw an old man in his 60s shaking a man in his 90s frantically.The 90-year-old man's complexion had begun to turn pale, and he was almost out of breath.

Liao Hua, who finally let out a sigh of relief, glanced at Jiang Wei with lingering fear: "Bo Yue, I can understand your feelings. But what can we do? If His Majesty doesn't order, we won't be able to mobilize a single soldier in CD! Just old man The supporting army led by Zhang Pushe (Zhang Shao) was the only one who got His Majesty’s approval after following the Queen’s path... Huang Hao’s eunuch deceived the Holy Spirit, His Majesty didn’t even know that the situation had become so dangerous!”

"Pfft!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Jiang Wei's body shook for a while, and he fell backwards on his back.

"Great General!" "Bo Yue!" Under the rescue of everyone, Jiang Wei woke up leisurely. After recovering his mind, Jiang Wei cried out: "Wei Fu Han 30 years, the Northern Expedition has not achieved an inch. It's nothing. Lost Hanzhong too... I don't know when the prime minister's last wish to revive the Han Dynasty will be fulfilled... So, what face do I have to see the prime minister!"

"The general must not do this! At this moment, the country is in dire straits, and we still need the general to lead us to turn the tide!"

"Yes, Bo Yue. Although the old man was dissatisfied with your repeated military campaigns before. But at this moment, the country still needs your support. Bo Yue, please rest assured. From the old man down, Bo Gong (Zhang Yi), Gong Xi (Dong Xi) Jue) I follow your command!"

"Bo Gong? Gong Xi?"

"Yeah, CD sent 5000 reinforcements this time through the Queen's relationship. The original plan was that the old man would lead 5000 people to defend the bridge and wait for you to return to the division. Bo Gong led [-] people into Yang'an Pass to assist Zilian in defending the bridge... Needless to say, fortunately Zhuge Xu was timid and did not rush into Baishuiguan and Jiange. After arriving at Baishuiguan, the old man dared not go any further, so he could only send scouts to monitor Zhugexu at the bridgehead from a distance until he heard that you were going north Prepare to sneak attack on Zhugexu's retreat, the old man knew you were coming back... and Bo Gong failed to save Yang'an Pass along the way... After hearing the news of the fall of Yang'an Pass, Bo Gong had already sent Jiange Withdrew. Dong Gongxi has mobilized five thousand Zitong civilians to reinforce the pass in Jiange..."

"...Fortunately, there are still some of you in the big man." After listening to Liao Hua's introduction, Jiang Wei let out a long sigh of relief: "Yuan Jian, what I mean is to abandon Baishui Pass and enter the Jiange with the whole army."

"Well, Boyue's opinion coincides with mine."

Why give up Baishui Pass and defend Yujiange with the whole army?There are two main reasons.

The first is the issue of geographical location.Baishuiguan is in the northwest, mainly facing 6 people from Deng Ai and Zhugexu. Zhonghui's army coming from the north can completely ignore Baishuiguan.And the location of Jiange is in the middle.Whether it is Deng Ai's army or Zhong Hui's army, as long as they want to go south to CD, Jiange is almost the only way to go.Therefore, instead of dividing troops to resist the opponent, it is better to join forces: although the enemy can also join forces, the defender will definitely have an advantage.

And with the loss of Yang'an Pass, the entire upper reaches of the Jialing River Basin has been opened wide.If Zhonghui is ruthless enough, he can build a ship in Guangyuan and enter Brazil County along the Jialing River eastwards. If Jiang Wei and others divide their troops to defend Baishuiguan, then when Zhonghui goes east along the waterway and enters Brazil County, Baishuiguan The army will be beyond reach.It's different when the main force of the Shu Han gathers in the Jiange - next to the Jiange is Hanshou, which is a large wharf in the upper reaches of the Jialing River.As long as Zhong Hui dares to go crazy and go eastward along the river, Jiang Wei can happily annihilate Zhong Hui's entire army.

The second is that the process of the loss of Yang'an Pass really chilled Jiang Wei, Liao Hua and others: the local family in Yizhou was not satisfied with the Shu Han regime.In recent years, with the corruption of Shu Han officials, even the people in Yizhou are dissatisfied with this regime.The credibility of those troops composed purely of Yizhou locals has to be marked with a big question mark.

Now Jiang Wei, Liao Hua, Zhang Yi, Dong Jue and others join forces, with a total force of nearly 4.Among them, the Habayashi Army brought out by Liao Hua and Zhang Yi from CD, and the Zitong County soldiers in Dong Jue's hands, most of them are natives of Yizhou.But Jiang Wei's mobile corps is different: they are all descendants of the Jingzhou soldiers that Liu Bei brought from Jingzhou to Yizhou.In the current situation, only by joining forces and relying on the suppression of the Mobile Corps can the soldiers in Yizhou also fight hard.

After deciding on the strategy for the next step, Jiang Wei regained his sobriety: "Yuan Jian, after I arrive at Jiange, I should jointly write a letter to His Majesty to report the danger of the current situation. I want His Majesty to dispatch Yong'an and Nanzhong as soon as possible." , Fuling's troops concentrated on CD. At the same time, they asked Soochow for help!"

"Okay! When I see this matter, I will trouble Dong Gongxi to go there personally, otherwise it's hard to say what kind of moth that eunuch Huang Hao is going to do!"

"Hey, Wei just didn't want to take that step back then. Otherwise, the eunuch would have been killed! The eunuch didn't know what he was thinking. Isn't it all thanks to His Majesty that he can do his best now? If His Majesty becomes A prisoner, how could he end well?"

……

When the news that Yang'an Pass had been captured reached Zhong Hui's ears, Zhong Hui was worshiping Zhuge Liang's tomb in Dingjun Mountain.

In fact, speaking of Dingjun Mountain, this is the pinnacle of Huang Zhong’s achievements in his life, and it has nothing to do with Zhuge Liang himself—when Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, Fazheng was with the military division, and Zhuge Liang was only responsible for providing food and grass in CD.But because this place is far enough away from CD, it is remote enough.So Liu Chan set Zhuge Liang's tomb and temple here-everyone wants to offer sacrifices to the prime minister and express your condolences to the prime minister.Only here yo.It is illegal in other places-this shows how much Liu Chan resents Zhuge Liang, a powerful minister.

However, this master's status in Shu Han was too lofty after all, so high that Boss Liu couldn't express his dissatisfaction publicly.Therefore, Zhong Hui came here to pay homage, in the current words: this tomb has important political significance.

When worshiping Zhuge Liang, Zhong Hui was in a very depressed mood: Speaking of which, Zhong Hui had already gone deep into Hanzhong.The land he stepped on was a place that Cao Zhen, Sima Yi and others could not set foot on in their entire lives. Perhaps such an achievement can be proud of?
Unfortunately, it's useless.Because since the 12 troops entered the Hanzhong Basin, they have not had any impressive records at all.Not even a beheaded capital!Is it really a beheading capital?
"Hey, it's been almost a month since the troops were dispatched. If you keep sitting down like this, the general will get impatient in Luoyang, right? Could it be that this time he's going to return without success? It's fine to return without success. The Great General's way to usurp the throne has been interrupted, will this anger come out on me? That's for sure!"

"Report~~~Good news! General Zhenxi! Good news!"

"Ok?"

"General Zhenxi, the guards sent someone to send a good news. Our army has captured Yang'an Pass!"

"Oh~~~What? You mean Yang'an Pass?" After figuring out that the messenger was talking about Yang'an Pass, Zhong Hui's first feeling was: lying!But he reacted quickly: Hu Lie absolutely did not have the guts to joke about this issue.So deep in his heart, the panic just now was quickly filled with unlimited ecstasy, which was about to explode!
After he carefully read the battle report sent by Hu Lie, he was even more grinning from ear to ear: Since Yang'an Pass was captured quickly, Hu Lie, in addition to getting Yang'an Pass, the Hanzhong Basin Outside the South Gate, they also got a whole [-] shi of grain hoarded here by the Shu Han government in Guancheng!One hundred thousand stones!If you save some food, it will be enough to support Zhonghui's army for a month-and, this is ready-made food.You know, if you want to transfer [-] shi of grain from Chang'an to here, the loss on the road will be at least [-] shi!
"Hehehehehe~~~~ In the past, the Taizu Emperor Wu (Cao Cao) attacked Hanzhong and was stopped by Zhang Wei at Yangping Pass. The Taizu had no choice but to prepare to retreat. Who would have thought that Zhang Weijun would withdraw his troops on the night of the Taizu? Suddenly I was in a mess... I never thought that Zhonghui would have such luck as Taizu!"

When Zhong Hui said this, he immediately realized that he had made a slip of the tongue.He looked around nervously, then straightened his expression: "The orderly soldier!"

"I'm waiting for the general's order!"

"Order, Xun Kai led an army of [-] to surround Seoul. Li Fu led an army of [-] to surround Lecheng. Liu Qin led an army of [-] to surround the Golden City. The rest of the army should all move closer to Yang'an Pass. Reorganize the establishment Afterwards, the whole army marches towards Zitong County!"

"promise!"

"Give the surrender general Jiang Shuquan the position of general, and the official appointment document will be appointed after the general reports to the general. Yang'an Guanyuan Xishu defenders, whoever surrenders, will be treated kindly. Well, let's give each person [-] yuan first!"

"As ordered!"

"Fu Qian, the general of Shu, was loyal to his duty. The two generations of father and son were all loyal men. Hu Lie, the guard, treated his corpse kindly and buried him generously!"

"promise!"

"Send envoys to report victory to the general! Our army has conquered Hanzhong. We are marching towards Zitong County in Western Shu!"

"As ordered!"

After Zhong Hui gave these orders, a faint sigh suddenly sounded in the air: "Hey, Han Zuo is about to end, and the fate cannot be violated. However, the people in the two rivers suffered from the military revolution, and I am sincerely pitiful. After you enter the country, don't be foolish." Kill the soul."

"Who is it?" Hearing this voice in the dark, the pores of Zhong Hui's body instantly stood up.But after inspecting the surroundings repeatedly, he found that the voice was so ethereal, not human-like at all.

"Is it Zhuge Wuhou who is admonishing this general? Please rest assured, Wuhou, the boy only wants to calm down Xichuan, and has no intention of harming the people!"
