Chapter 976

Chengdu.

The capital of the king of Shu.

Liu Zhang, the king of Hanzhong, established the Kingdom of Shu and was also known as the King of Shu.

However, since Liu Zhang became the queen of Shu, he has basically not lived a good life. In the past, it was Liu Bei who didn't listen to the tune and did not listen to the propaganda, and created his own system in Hanzhong to hinder him, but now he and Yuan Tan are together to hinder him.

After the defeat of Hanzhong, the people of Shu began to murmur that there was the king of Shu, the rat king.

this day.

In his palace hall, Liu Zhang called a group of ministers to discuss the matter of resisting Yuan Tan's entry into Shu.

Only after passing the Jiange can he really enter Shu. Yuan Tan has already stationed troops outside the Jiange.

"I think that we should immediately mobilize heavy troops and send them to Jiange. Wu Lan's 30,000 people cannot defend Yuan Tan in Jiange." Huang Quan, the Prime Minister of Shu, came out and said.

At this time, Jiange guard Wu Lan came back.

Liu Zhang was taken aback, "Why are you back?"

After Wu Lan knelt down, she began to cry. He also didn't want to go back to Chengdu. He described Liu Bei's defense of the Jiange now, and the soldiers and horses of the Jiange were also restrained by him.

Liu Zhang was at a loss as always.

Huang Quan was very angry, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Bei said that 'the general will not accept the orders of the emperor outside'..., the heart of disobedience is clearly revealed, Your Majesty, Your Majesty immediately issued an edict to remove him from all official positions and regain the military power."

The waiter Zhang Song hurried out, he was Liu Bei's secret player here, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, you must know that Liu Bei has no objection at all, and he is fighting for the Kingdom of Shu. He is so desperate, his flaws can't hide his strengths, if he is punished As for him, who is willing to move forward in the future? Why not wait a little longer, the Jiange is majestic, and see if he can stop Yuan Tan."

Although Liu Zhang hated Liu Bei's disobedience, he also knew that he was desperately resisting Yuan Tan.

If it can be blocked, it will still be the watchdog of the Shu Kingdom.

Liu Zhang still knew this truth.

Choose to endure one more hand.

Liu Zhang and his father Liu Yan have been in Xichuan for more than 20 years, and they have also accumulated a lot of military strength and family wealth, which is not inferior to Liu Biao's Jingzhou.

After losing 50,000 troops successively, there are still 150,000 troops.

then,

Another 50,000 troops were dispatched to Zhang Ren to guard Luocheng, the last fortress before Chengdu.

He was very "magnanimous" and sent 20,000 reinforcements to Liu Bei.

Huang Quan gave Zhang Song a cold look, "My lord, what if Liu Bei loses again?"

Liu Zhang also showed the aura of a king at this moment, stood up and said coldly: "Liu Bei will not listen to orders, if he loses again, all his titles will be cut off, he will be reduced to a commoner, and he will be thrown into the prison."

Zhang Song lowered his head, what else could he say, he had already done his best for Liu Bei.

...

on the other hand.

At Jiange Pass.

Jiange is also called Jianmen, Jianmen Pass.

It is on Jianshan, where the Guancheng is built.

The cliffs on both sides go straight into the sky, and the peaks lean against the sky like swords. The cliff is separated, and the two walls are facing each other. It looks like a door, so it is called Jianmen.

It enjoys the reputation of "Jianmen World Risk".

Jianmen Pass was formed in the Cretaceous period. It is a rare Danxia landscape of city wall-like conglomerate cliffs in the world. It has a vertical height of nearly 300 meters and a natural pass of only 50 meters at the narrowest point at the bottom. It is the first natural pass in the world.

Since ancient times, Jiange has never been breached.

It belongs to the kind that with 300 Spartans, it can equal 400,000 Persian warriors. At that time, Thermopylae Pass in Sparta was not as dangerous as Jiange.

So after Liu Bei entered Jiange, he was able to relax a little.

At this moment, he was discussing the military situation with the mastermind Fazheng on Guancheng.

Liu Bei walked to the battlements, looked at the densely packed Shence Army camp in the distance, and couldn't help worrying, and said: "Zhao Yun joined Yuan Tan's sequence from Micang Mountain, and the size of the Shence Army has exceeded 150,000. Zhang Lu also formed a moral army of 50,000 Taoist priests from Tianshi Dao. Now Yuan Tan's total strength has exceeded 200,000."

He added: "It seems that Yuan Tan waited for a large amount of food and grass to arrive before going to war."

Fazheng still agrees with Liu Bei's point of view. The road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult for people to come, and it is even more difficult to transport food. It seems that Yuan Tan is very calm, this is accumulating strength, a battle will determine the world.

Dao: "Now Yinping County has surrendered to Yuan Tan. Before Guanghan County, there is no danger to defend except Jiange."

Guanghan County, which is the county where Chengdu is located. There is also Zitong County between Jiange and Jiange, but Zitong County is in a plain area and there is no danger to defend.

If Liu Bei fails again, he can only abandon the defense all the way, and then retreat to Luocheng.

Now Liu Zhang ordered Zhang Ren to lead 50,000 troops to defend Luocheng.

If Liu Bei retreats in defeat, he will definitely be sanctioned by Liu Zhang.

At this time, Ma Su came.

Liu Bei looked disgusted.

Ma Di also knew his own weight, and he still needed to study hard, waiting for the next opportunity, and said: "My lord, the Jiange is built on the mountain, and the terrain is dangerous. However, in the north of the mountain, there is a place called Motianling, which can allow the army to Overcoming, you must guard against it."

Fazheng was startled, and took out the topographic map of Xichuan, but found no place called Motianling.

Ma Di: ⊙︿⊙, with an unfazed expression, said: "My lord, military advisor, this is the result of my careful inspection of the surrounding terrain these days, and I have already conducted field investigations. The mountain people there are called Motianling."

Liu Bei frowned, "Is there anything special about this place?"

Ma Su ╰_╯, don’t you understand? So he explained, "The enemy can cross Motianling from Yinping, which is equivalent to crossing the Jiange, and the Jiange will be destroyed without attack."

Liu Bei: ⊙﹏⊙∥∣°

I understand this time.

Ma Di said again: "However, we can also cross Yinping from Motianling and attack Hanzhong."

Liu Bei: ヾ(?｀Д′?)

Immediately shocked, excited, boiling. Looking at Ma Di with surprised eyes, this young man has done a great service after realizing his shame.

Ma Di: ⊙⌒⊙, I seem to understand, and said: "The subordinates believe that our army can go over mountains and mountains, and return to Hanzhong by surprise.... Yuan Tan's army came to attack Jiange from afar, and the rear was empty, and the army also changed. It is quite difficult. As long as we send out surprise troops to defeat Hanzhong and cut off their retreat, we can turn the world around and conquer the world with one battle."

Liu Bei thought about it carefully, and immediately became more excited, and said: "Good strategy, really good strategy."

Ma Di looked indifferent.

This made Liu Bei very sorry. During this period of time, this young military adviser was neglected. He has potential. He patted his shoulder and said, "Young Chang, this period of time is not intended to neglect you, but to let you calm down. , Examine the future. Now it seems that you have lived up to my hopes."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he didn't want to wait for a moment, "Chang Yide came to discuss with Yun immediately."

Shaoqing.

In the chamber.

The atmosphere is completely different from before.

After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard the plan, they were quite excited, and they finally saw the hope of turning defeat into victory.

Fazheng said: "But we also have to be prepared. If Hanzhong City cannot be taken down, we should not attack by force. Instead, we should destroy the villages outside and cut off the enemy's food roads. Has Xiaochang already done this?"

"What the military adviser said is true." Ma Di seemed to have matured a lot. I didn't feel disgusted because my strategy was greatly supplemented by others.

Zhang Fei said: "Yes, we destroyed all the grain in the field, leaving the enemy without food."

Fazheng waved his hands hastily when he heard the words: "No, no, third general, you and the second general traveled across mountains and rivers, and couldn't carry food and grass. My lord also couldn't transport food and grass for you. You also need food, so it's better to collect food and supply it to the expeditionary army. "

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhang Fei nodded embarrassingly, forgetting that his own people also had to eat and drink.

They robbed Hanzhong of food and grass, resulting in hundreds of thousands of hungry people, cutting off Yuan Tan's food roads and refusing to give them. In this case, there is no need to capture Hanzhong City, but it can also achieve an extremely perfect effect.

Then Yuan Tan's army would starve to death.

This is two-handed preparation.

Ma Su suddenly felt that there was still a big gap between himself and Fazheng, the mastermind, but his expression gradually became proud.

The rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty will begin when Guan Yu and Zhang Fei sneak across Yinping Motianling, and this place was discovered by him, and it must be recorded in history.

"Because Yuan Tan didn't know about it, and the troops were piled up outside the pass, let's mobilize our army quickly..." Liu Bei said urgently.
