The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 548
Cao Cao stormed Hanzhong. Except for Nanzheng, the seat of Hanzhong, other places including Shangyong, Fangxian, and Xicheng were attacked by Xia Houyuan. In particular, Yangping Pass, an important pass in the west, was also captured. .

In Nanzheng, Zhang Lu used Wudoumi's status as a celestial master to call on the people to resist Cao Cao, so that the latter directly launched a bloody extermination of Wudoumi.

Cao Cao chose to give up the strong attack after several days of strong attack and felt that it was fruitless. First, he had Zhang Wei's head thrown on Nanzheng, and then as long as it was the backbone of the Five Dou Mijiao sent by Xia Houyuan, he would be executed under the city of Nanzheng. Put the head on the ground with a bamboo pole.

As time went by, the longer Cao Cao spent besieging Nanzheng, the more bamboo poles and human heads there were outside the city. When Zhang Lu saw that the backbone of his hard work for more than ten years was slaughtered one by one under his nose, the five buckets of rice were in his hands. When it was about to be burned, he couldn't bear the blackness in front of his eyes anymore and fell to the ground.

This is Cheng Yu's poisonous plan, the so-called "siege the city is the bottom, attack the heart is the top!" '

Since Zhang Lu used the identity of the Five Dou Rice Road to confuse the people, he would use the Five Dou Rice Road to break it. Cheng Yu expected that Zhang Lu had devoted his whole life to the Five Dou Rice Road. a person's beliefs.

In this way, Cheng Yu predicted that Zhang Lu would not live long. As long as Zhang Lu died, he would be like Zhang Jiao in the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
The facts were as Cheng Yu expected, when the core members of the Five Dou Rice Sect were killed one after another in front of Zhang Lu, the latter really couldn't hold on and fell ill.

Three months after Cao Cao served Nanzheng, Zhang Lu, the third-generation celestial master of Wudoumi Sect, died because his life's efforts were destroyed and spurted blood. The Nanzheng group without a backbone has no leader. Some have to stick to it, and some have to be a celestial master Those who seek revenge, those who are timid and afraid of death, in short, they have all kinds of ideas.

At the same time, the death of Zhang Lu poured a basin of cold water on all the people in Nanzheng. Except for the believers who had been fooled, most of the believers began to regain their senses. Even the Great Celestial Master died. What to give them?This question is in the minds of every believer in Wudou Mi Dao.

When the impulsive Taoist of Wudoumi led people and chose to fight recklessly with Cao Cao to avenge Zhang Lu, he directly led people to raid Cao Cao's camp, and was wiped out by Cao Cao's prepared army. These people were slaughtered by Cao Cao None left.

Because Cao Cao knew that these people were all addicted to the five buckets of rice, even if they stayed, it would be a disaster, it would be better to kill them with one knife.

So five days later, Yan Pu led people to open the city gate and surrender, and at the same time represented Cao Cao to take down the entire Hanzhong!
After entering Hanzhong, Cao Cao's first order was to massacre the core personnel of Wudou Mi Dao. In order to attack Wu Dou Mi Dao, Cao Cao obeyed Cheng Yu's suggestion and ordered Zhang Lu's corpse to be flogged, and then exposed to the sun for three months. Anyone who wanted to snatch the corpse would be killed without mercy. !

Not to mention this method, it is very effective in this era. In fact, several groups of people tried to seize the corpses, and hundreds of people were killed.

Since then, some survivors have been unable to overcome the big waves, and the five buckets of rice that have been passed down for three generations have perished.

When Cao Cao took Hanzhong, the two directions that had the greatest impact were of course Yizhou and Jingzhou!
Let's talk about Yizhou first. At the beginning of this year, Liu Zhang had just quelled Zhao Wei's rebellion. When he was just thinking about some peaceful days, he did not expect Cao Cao to dispatch an army to attack Hanzhong in an all-round way.

As the gateway to the north of Yizhou, the importance of Hanzhong is self-evident, but Liu Zhang thought it was acceptable to be occupied by Zhang Lu for many years.

Because Zhang Lu couldn't beat him, but now the holder of Hanzhong has changed to Cao Cao, who is fierce and fierce!
Liu Zhang, an honest boy, felt happy and scared at the same time!What a complicated mood!
I am happy because Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu have feuds. It's not that the former didn't think about sending troops to attack Zhang Lu, but they all failed. How happy someone can help him clean up Zhang Lu!

But the fear is, what if Zhang Lu can't beat Cao Cao, and after the latter occupies Hanzhong, he is only dissatisfied with eating Hanzhong, and wants to continue going south to eat him in Yizhou?
This made Liu Zhang very scared. Zhang Lu was just fighting with himself. What about the more powerful Cao Cao?
When the news came that Cao Cao had captured the entire Hanzhong and how he had massacred the Taoist priests with five measures of rice, Liu Zhang was trembling unconsciously!
This is Cao Cao, Cao Cao, one of the three great princes in the world!
Except for Liu Zhang who was trembling, all civil and military people in Yizhou were discussing this matter.

"My lord, if Cao Cao wins Hanzhong, he must be eyeing Yizhou. I have to be on guard!"

"Gongheng (Huang Quan's character is Gongheng), what's the best way?"

"The three generals Liu Gui, Zhang Ren, and Ling Bao can be stationed in Baishui, Jiameng, and Langzhong respectively."

"Okay, just listen to what Gong Heng says!"

"Here!" Liu Gui, Zhang Ren and Ling Bao received the order!
The Langzhong, Baishuiguan, and Jiamengguan mentioned by Huang Quan are important checkpoints on the Jinniu Road from Hanzhong to Shu.

From Hanzhong to Chengdu, besides the Jinniu Road, there is also the Micang Road. The latter road is actually from Bazhong to Shu.

And Jinniu Road starts from Yangping Pass to Baishui Pass, Jiameng Pass, Zitong, Fu County, Mianzhu, and Luo County. This route involves countless fortified cities!
For example, Fu County, where Pang Tong died in Huangquan, Luo County, where Liu Bei fought for a whole year, and Jiameng Pass, where Ma Chao could not survive, were all on this road.

And Baishui and Jiameng pass are the important passes in the north, someone wants to refute here, where is the Jianmen pass?Where did the Jiange where Zhang He died in battle go?

That’s right, Jianmen Pass is also on this road, between Jiameng Pass and Zitong, but Jianmen Pass hadn’t existed in 201, and Jianmen Pass was built only after Zhuge Liang discovered that the place was dangerous and unusual decades later!
And Langzhong is a branch of Jinniu Road, that is, Jiameng Pass does not go to Chengdu, but the first stop of the southeast detour. After that, it can pass through Anhan, Dianjiang, and Deyang to reach Chengdu. This road bypasses and starts from Jiange. A series of strong cities, of course, there is no Jiange now, which is Zitong's defense line.

So Huang Quan wants to send people to divide the troops to garrison Langzhong!

Now some people want to refute, especially some pseudo-Three Kingdoms fans will say that taking Deng Ai's road to smuggle to Yinping, go to Jiangyou, and cross Mianzhu will not be able to bypass the defense lines such as Jiange?

First of all, it is impossible to have this way in 201, because Yinping County does not belong to the Han people, but the place where the Di people gather is called the Guanghan Kingdom, and the leader is Dou Mao, one of the four kings of Di. At least Cao Cao is now There is no way to deal with him, because Ma Teng's forces are separated in the middle.

That's right, Deng Ai entered Shu from Liangzhou. Obviously, this is an impossible route for Cao Cao at present!
