Great Wei Nengchen

Fortunately, the soldiers were more vigilant and found these pretenders in time. After a bloody fight, they successfully protected Zhang Lu, but several important generals were killed, and the pretenders also retreated calmly... The leader was still a Little stammer!

"Tianshi don't need to be too sad, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, as long as we learn the lesson well, we can still regroup and fight Xiao Yi again!

The camp is burned out, let's build another one, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, let's continue to recruit, as for ordnance, food and grass, isn't there a transport team arriving today, it can relieve the urgent need!

The real worry is that in Chencang Road, Baoxie Road, and Yangping Pass, Cao Jun's offensive is extremely vigorous. If he doesn't think about ways to raise supplies and support troops, he may not be able to support it! "

Li Ru was also very depressed, walking back and forth on the ashes with his hands behind his back, his figure became much more hunched, the tactic of 'clumsiness defeats ingenuity' that he had painstakingly planned, he thought he would win without a doubt, but he was defeated by Xiao Yi again !

But he didn't blame Zhang Lu, nor did he blame the Hanzhong generals, but he blamed himself deeply. Through this fiasco, Li Ru also learned a lot:

No matter how ingenious a strategy is, it needs people to implement it. Therefore, the first factor that determines the outcome is people: if people's hearts go smoothly, everything will succeed, and if people's hearts go against it, everything will fail!

I only thought about fighting hard and defeated Xiao Yi with crowd tactics, but I ignored the feelings of Hanzhong soldiers. They are all flesh and blood people, not things to be consumed at will. If they lose their hearts, they lose this war!

When the Xiliang army entered Luoyang, if I persuaded Dong Zhuo, killed less innocent people, won more people's hearts, and treated the soldiers and the people a little better, great things may not be impossible--I regret it!I regret it!

Then again, although the Hanzhong Army lost for a while, there are still nearly [-] troops, and the command system is complete, and they can continue to fight!

Although Xiao Yi won for a while, there were only thousands of soldiers left, everyone was wounded, exhausted, trapped in the isolated city, it was the end of the battle!

Therefore, whether it wins or loses, as long as it continues to fight, Hanzhong Group will still win the final victory, as long as there is a little more time.

It's a pity that good fortune comes and misfortune never comes singly. When Li Ru, Zhang Lu and the generals were discussing how to regroup and attack Lecheng again, bad news came one after another:

"Report to Master Tianshi, something is wrong: a Cao army attacked our transport team, [-] soldiers were killed and injured, and all the supplies were burned!"

"What, no more food?"

"The big thing is bad: a Cao army even conquered important towns such as Shiquan and Gucheng, killed thousands of our defenders, and then crossed the Han River to the south and went straight to Nanzheng City!"

"What, do you want to keep the old nest?"

…………

As soon as two bad news were connected, it was like two bolts from the blue sky, hitting Zhang Lu fiercely. If the generals hadn't helped him, he would have almost fallen to the ground!

The generals are also full of bitterness. Without the supplement of ordnance, food and grass, the old nest-Nanzheng City is threatened again. How can this battle be fought? How did Cao Jun cross the Han River?

It turned out that when Xiao Yi and Zhang Lu fought across the Han River, Huang Zhong and his son who stayed in Akasaka City were not idle. They took advantage of the fact that the Hanzhong army attacked Lecheng and the rear was extremely empty, and led their troops across the Han River. Divide into two groups:

Huang Zhong led a team to intercept and kill the transportation team of the Hanzhong Army, burned its grain and grass, and demolished bridges and roads by the way, cutting off the material supply ahead!

Huang Xu was even more ruthless. He led another team to sweep up several cities on the south bank of the Han River, and then went straight to Nanzheng City.

"Report, something is wrong..."

It happened that the house was leaking in the rain all night, and the boat was broken and the wind was blowing. Before Zhang Lu and others could react, how to deal with the bad situation, another courier came running quickly, covered in blood, in a state of embarrassment...

"Report to Master Tianshi, something is wrong: Yangping Pass has fallen, and the [-] defenders have been destroyed!"

"What, Yangping Pass has fallen, what happened to my second brother?"

"Wounded and captured, life and death unknown!"

"It's over, it's all over... Puff, Master Tianshi, Master Tianshi, wake up!"

Yangping Pass is the last line of defense in the west, and now it has fallen into the hands of Cao Jun. Nanzheng City is in front of naked people. In addition, the death of his second brother Zhang Weiwei is unknown. Zhang Lu couldn't bear the huge blow. He foamed at the mouth and passed out. Call for help.

At this point, it is impossible to attack Lecheng. The whole army quickly retreated to Nanzheng City. Relying on the solid defense, they could barely struggle. Take refuge in the mountains!

Next, under the command of Li Ru, more than 5 remnants were defeated, threw away all the heavy things, and retreated across the board in a panic... But the seven or eight hundred ships on the south bank of the Han River remained intact!

"Dare to ask Mr. Jin, is there a team left behind?"

"No need, Xiao Yi is a smart man, he won't chase us down, get out!"

"promise!"

....................................

"Long live! Long live! --Long live Da Sima!"

"Report to Da Sima: The golden eagle sent news that the West Route Army captured Yangping Pass, the battle situation took a turn for the worse, and the enemy retreated in a hurry, leaving behind all the warships. Will our army cross the river and pursue it? Let's kill him. ?”

Seeing the retreat of the Hanzhong Army across the board, cheers erupted from the North Shore-Lecheng. After seven days and nights of bloody fighting, how many brothers died in battle, finally ushered in the dawn of victory!

Deng Ai, Dian Wei, and the Four Beasts of Hell all suggested that the whole army go across the Han River, and one of them beat the dog in the water. Even if Zhang Lu cannot be captured alive, he can still kill and injure more enemy troops!

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi shook his head and rejected such a good proposal. He just let the soldiers rest well, contacted the rest of the troops, gathered in the direction of Lecheng, and at the same time gathered the ships on the south bank. This was a signal of peace.

"The battle in Hanzhong has already been fought, there is no need to kill or injure lives anymore, after that there is a political game, asking prices all over the place, paying back the money at the end of the day, and finally taking a step back!"

The accuracy of Xiao Yi's guess was affected by the Battle of Hanshui, the battle had been stalemate for more than two months, and the winner was quickly determined:

On August 24, the defense line of Baoxie Road was lost. Fifteen thousand Hanzhong troops, half of them died in battle, and most of them surrendered. Nanzheng City!

On August 26, the Chencangdao line of defense, which was the most tenacious in resistance, also collapsed, and more than 1 defenders were completely destroyed. The guard Yang Ren had nowhere to escape, and was unwilling to be a prisoner, so he killed himself with a horizontal sword!

After Xiao Yi heard the news, he was grateful for Yang Renzhi's loyalty and bravery, and ordered to follow the etiquette in the army: "wrap the body in horse leather, and carry the coffin with a spear", and then he was buried in the earth. The cemetery is near Chencang Road.

On August 28th, the armies of the three routes marched hand in hand and joined forces in Lecheng. Xiao Yi jumped on his horse with a sword in hand, inspected all the soldiers in person, rewarded those who made great achievements in battle, and rewarded the soldiers with wine and meat. The cheers were earth-shattering!

At the same time, Xiao Yi warned all the officers and men that after entering the hinterland of Hanzhong, no one should disturb the people, and made three chapters:

Killing innocents - beheading!

Looters - chop hands!

Those who insult women - eunuchs!

When the order was issued, the whole army was in awe. Those soldiers who were eager to make a fortune in the war immediately put away their little thoughts, and threw away the sacks that were going to hold the money!

At the same time, I am also very curious. In the past, when Da Sima sacked cities and plundered land, he would inevitably plunder property. However, the level of looting was so high that no one in Cao Ying could match it. Meiyu, how did you change your gender this time?

On August 29th, two 10,000+ Cao troops crossed the Han River one after another, approached the vicinity of Nanzheng City, swept the surrounding towns, and formed a situation of encirclement on all sides, but did not attack on a large scale!

Instead, they built barriers, dug ditches, and surrounded Nanzheng City completely. As Xiao Yi said before, the military battle was over, and the political battle followed.

But on the second day of setting up camp, Jingzhou sent a message: "The army from Nanjun has gathered, and Liu Bei is about to enter Sichuan!"

Chapter 1494 Liu Bei Enters Sichuan ([-])

Yuan'an City is located in the west of Jingzhou-Nanjun. It is a small city with a radius of less than three miles and a population of just over 2000. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, the terrain is flat, and it is close to a tributary of the Yangtze River. It is very suitable for rice cultivation!

Because of its remote location and small population, this place has not been affected by the flames of war. Even when the Cao, Sun, and Liu families fought for Jingzhou, Yuan'an City was safe and sound, so the local people were very happy and called themselves My hometown is a blessed land!

But recently, Yuan'an City has become less peaceful. The reason is--there are bandits!
