Three Kingdoms: The rebellious son of the Cao family married the queen at the beginning

"Kill, kill!"

With Wei Yan yelling, all Liu Bei's soldiers and horses were killed. Before leaving, he did not forget to set fire to Jiameng Pass to prevent the enemy from attacking back and forth.

The white-eared elite soldiers rode their horses in front, followed by ordinary soldiers, and more than 2 troops rushed straight into Zhang Ren's army.

Zhang Ren frowned, why did Liu Bei abandon Jiameng Pass at this time?
Even if they attack from both sides, they may not be able to attack.

"Report, General Zhang, Jiange was attacked by General Liu Bei Guan Yu, General Meng Da asked for help."

Zhang Ren was horrified, Guan Yu actually came here?
What a Liu Bei, it's fine to give up Jiamengguan, but he dared to set fire to him, really think I'm easy to bully?
"Come here, inform General Meng Da, let him use all the fire starters in the pass, and burn the Jiange to me."

"promise!"

Zhang Ren also planned to give Liu Bei a surprise. This bastard turned out to be immoral and set fire to the gate.

Seeing the blazing Jiange, Guan Yu asked his soldiers to retreat quickly.

Zhang Ren and Liu Bei launched a life-and-death contest between Jiange and Jiameng Pass, and the soldiers on both sides refused to give up an inch.

The two armies fought for nearly two hours. Zhang Ren saw that his soldiers were rapidly decreasing, so he let Liu Bei pass.

The two sides fought for more than ten days. Zhang Ren lost nearly [-] troops, and Liu Bei lost nearly [-] troops. As a result, the two sides changed their defensive positions back and forth twice.

Jiange still belongs to Liu Bei, and Jiameng Pass still belongs to Zhang Ren. The only difference is that both passes were burned this time.

Zhang Ren ordered his soldiers to build a large camp outside Jiameng Pass. Taking advantage of Liu Bei's army's temporary inability to attack, he ordered his soldiers to quickly repair Jiameng Pass.

Zhang Ren, Huang Quan, and Qiao Zhou joined forces, and their soldiers were only more than 5. It is still unknown whether such a small number of people can stop Liu Bei's white-eared elite soldiers.

Zhang Ren looked at Qiao Zhou and said, "Lord Sikong, please return to Chengdu as soon as possible."

"The general must be careful, and never allow Liu Bei to capture Jiameng Pass again."

Zhang Ren nodded, and after sending Qiao Zhou away, he ordered Meng Da to garrison Gangdi Road to the west of Zitong to prevent Liu Bei from attacking Zitong from there again.

Zhang Song said with a sad face: "General, Liu Bei's white-eared elite soldiers don't want to come up with countermeasures. The next time they attack again, we really may not be able to defend."

"The opponent's armor is too hard, bows and arrows can't penetrate it at all, and our swords don't do much damage to them. The only way to deal with them is to use fire or traps."

When Zhang Ren was worrying, Mi Zhu led a caravan from Wuling to the city of Chengdu in Shu.

The moment Liu Zhang saw Mi Zhu, it was like seeing his own father. He regarded Mi Zhu as a guest of honor and treated him with good wine and meat.

Because Mi Zhu brought him [-] sets of Wei army equipment, which were exactly the same as those of Liu Bei and Liu Cong. If they had this equipment, they would have nothing to worry about.

"How much is this equipment worth? The most important thing in our Shu Kingdom is money and food."

Liu Zhang looked at Mi Zhu generously, and Mi Zhu shook his head.

There was no shortage of money and food for them. Even if he wanted it, he had to find a way to get it back to Jingzhou. With so much money and food, he couldn't guarantee that it would be safe.

"Then what does your envoy need?"

Before he came, Cao Shuo had already explained that he didn't want any money or food, only land.

"Our army is not short of money and food. We want several counties in the south of Yizhou."

Want territory?
Liu Zhang became vigilant.

I thought to myself, if you are not short of money and food, are you short of land?

The current area of ​​Wei State covers nearly ten prefectures of Dahan, and you still want territory?

Besides, Yizhou and Cao Shuo don't border at all, so what's the use of our territory?

"Could it be that your army has the means to manage such a distant place?"

"I heard that several counties in the south of Yizhou are in the hands of the Nanmans. All we want is an opportunity to attack. As long as we capture them, these counties will be ours."

Sikong Qiao asked with a frightened face on Zhou Zhou: "Have you hidden soldiers and horses in Jiaozhou?"

How could Mi Zhu tell them this, it was their secret.

If Liu Zhang knew that Jiaozhou was already their territory, then Liu Zhang would never give them the counties in the south.

"Our army has captured Yangzhou and is about to attack Jingzhou on a large scale. The four counties in Jingnan are relatively close to the south of Yizhou. Although the road is rough and difficult, we can also get a small number of soldiers to get there. Our goods will be sold to Nanman .”

Liu Zhang and all the ministers were stunned. The business was so terrible that it even covered the Nanman.

Exchanging a few counties for [-] sets of equipment may seem uneconomical, but to Liu Zhang, it is like giving away for nothing.

Cang County, Yizhou County, Yongchang County, and Jian are vassal states. These four counties are all in the hands of the Nanmans. He sent Li Yan to conquer for two years, but they still haven't captured them.

In his opinion, these counties are useless at all. The land in the south is barren, the mountain roads are rugged, and there are many miasmas, which are a burden to them.

Liu Zhang thought for a while and said, "Yongchang County and Cang County can be given to you, but Yizhou County and Jian are vassal states, and we will not give them away."

Li Yan's army is right at the border of Jianwei's vassal state. If Li Yan were to lay down the key to become a vassal state, wouldn't he want to make a wedding dress for Cao Shuo?

He also had another purpose. There was Yizhou County between Zangcang County and Yongchang County. If Cao Shuo wanted to connect the two counties, he had to take down Yizhou County.

But the choice is in his hands, and Yizhou County will never give it to Cao Shuo. Although the seat of his Shu Kingdom is in Shu County, Yizhou County is the symbol of Yizhou. He is in charge of several counties in the south of Yizhou center.

Mi Zhu was overjoyed, he thought it would be a good idea to exchange so much equipment for one county, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to be so generous and directly gave away the offensive rights of two counties.

"Two counties are two counties!"

After Liu Zhang got the [-] sets of equipment, he sent people to deliver [-] sets to Yan Yan and Zhang Ren each.

Mi Zhu asked someone to bring up a long spear and said, "Zhang Ren, the great general of your country, is from the same school as Zhao Yunnai, the great general of our Wei state. Before coming to Yizhou, General Zhao ordered me to bring a long spear. , give it to General Zhang Ren, this long spear can easily pierce through these equipments, and can help General Zhang fight the enemy bravely on the battlefield."

Liu Zhang looked depressed. Zhang Ren's face was even greater than that of his monarch. He wanted to withhold the weapon that General Wei personally gave him.

But for the long-term development of the Shu Kingdom, Zhang Ren still plays a very important role, and he cannot be deceived for the sake of immediate interests.

"Thank you for the long spear presented by the general of your country. I believe that the future transactions between our two countries will reach a higher level."
