At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Wu Yi said this to Yang Huai.

Yang Huai thought it made sense, and he also suspected that this incident happened too suddenly and there were too many suspicious points.

So the two of them worked together and thought of a night attack method. They picked a group of soldiers who did not have night blindness at night to follow him, and quietly went out of the city to attack at night. They caught the opponent by surprise and set fire to their barracks. One vote, one question, both Wu Yi and Yang Huai felt cold.

Wei Jun is a fart!

It's Dongzhou soldiers!Or Dongzhou soldiers under Pang Xi's command!

This operation was instigated by Pang Xi, and there were only more than 5000 soldiers and horses participating from the beginning to the end. The reason why the number of soldiers and horses seemed large was that the torches held by each person were specially made. Take six torches, and in the dark night, the number of troops will be expanded six times in one fell swoop!

Thirty thousand more soldiers came out of thin air, and they shouted the battle cry of the Wei army together, which directly frightened Liu Zhang and other Shu soldiers.

Pang Xi saw Liu Zhang's nature as a cowardly son, and his operation was as fierce as a tiger, which directly frightened Liu Zhang. He lost Nanzheng City, lost everything, and fled back to Sichuan.

A big gamble, if you lose the bet, you will die without a place to die, if you win the bet, you will be in the whole of Hanzhong.

Pang Xi won the bet, and Liu Zhang was just a cowardly, cowardly and uninitiated son, with nothing to redeem him except for his extravagance.

Sooner or later he will be scared to death.

Wu Yi and Yang Huai looked at each other, looked at each other silently, and talked less, Wu Yi suddenly became violent and beheaded more than 200 captured Pang Xi's soldiers to vent his anger.

He has never been so angry in his life!I have never suffered such a crime!Never made such a mistake!

Pang Xi!Pang Xi! ! !

Wu Yi gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, and immediately sent someone to send a letter back to Shuzhong, telling Liu Zhang what happened here, and asking Liu Zhang for reinforcements.

He wants to retake Hanzhong!

At this moment, in Nanzheng, Pang Xi was smiling triumphantly.

He made a comeback, he survived PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, and he won the bet.

With only 4 soldiers and horses, he used the momentum and role of [-] people to successfully turn the tables, capture Hanzhong, and drive away Liu Zhang, the idiot who is a strong outsider and a dry man!

He bet that Liu Zhang didn't dare to stay in Hanzhong, and would definitely run back with all his heart, so as to drag down other generals who could react.

He won the bet!

Of course, Cheng Ji's help and Fazheng's planning were indispensable for him to win the bet.

Before the action, Pang Xi sent people to bribe the jailer, spent money, spent money vigorously, and exchanged the civet cat for the prince to replace Fazheng.

He replaced Fazheng in prison with someone else, thus gaining an all-important period of time.

Chapter 611 620 Fazheng despises Liu Zhang from the bottom of his heart

After Fazheng was released by Pang Xi, he learned that Liu Zhang wanted to kill Pang Xi.

After learning about this, Fazheng was very surprised, but he adjusted his mentality as quickly as possible, thinking that what Pang Xi did was right.

This was Pang Xi's only way out, if he wanted to survive, he had to do this.

Liu Zhang, that's really bad!

Fazheng despised Liu Zhang from the bottom of his heart.

So he urgently used his brain to plan some details for Pang Xi.

Such as the marching route, such as the transformation of the torches, such as the flag of the Wei army, such as calling the battle horn of the Wei army, etc., these are all Fazheng's plans.

Fazheng filled out the details for Pang Xi, and tried his best to match the fake with the real one. So when the official action was underway, Pang Xi's smooth operation scared Liu Zhang away and occupied Nanzheng.

Fearing the fierceness of the Wei army, a large number of Shu troops knelt down and begged for mercy, handed over their weapons and were guarded. After dawn, they found out that it was not the Wei army at all, but the soldiers and horses under Pang Xi's men.

It was only at this time that they wanted to resist, but they had no chance. Facing the crossbow, they were unarmed, and it was difficult for them to resist.

Then under the guidance of Fazheng, Pang Xi picked out all the officers and killed all the locals in Yizhou. A brighter future.

Afterwards, with the cooperation of the officers, the Dongzhou soldiers among the captives also fell to Pang Xi, and the local Yizhou soldiers were picked out and buried alive.

"Your thoughts are not pure, and you will not really serve me. There are still garrisons in Hanzhong counties, and I am afraid that they will change over time. At this critical moment, just cut the weeds and root them out! There will be no future troubles!"

Fazheng gritted his teeth and suggested so.

Pang Xi agreed, and kept on doing nothing, and buried them all alive. As a result, nearly [-] Yizhou local soldiers were driven to be buried alive.

Big pits were dug out one by one, and Yizhou soldiers were driven into the pits howling and screaming. They wanted to resist and ask for work, but they had no way to escape under the threat of bows and spears.

Dust finally covered all living beings, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and more than 8000 lives were buried in the ground like this, turning into organic nutrients to nourish the earth.

It is believed that this land will become very fertile in the future, and a lot of food will be grown.

No one would know that this was where soldiers were buried alive.

Of course, this is not the first time, nor will it be the last time.

After that, Fazheng assigned tasks to the generals of the army, went to attack the counties on the west side of Hanzhong, or persuaded them with benefits, and sent Pang Xi's son to lead the army into the Shu roads, especially the Luogu Road, to clean up the Shu army and open the passage. At the crossing, welcome Guo Peng's army to arrive.

Then it was necessary to ensure smooth flow along the route, and prepare the food and grass hoarded in Hanzhong prepared by Liu Zhang for the Northern Expedition along the way, and prepare to invite the uncles of Wei Jun to eat.

As long as the uncles of Wei Jun come over, they are guaranteed to be well served, eat and drink, and do whatever they want, as long as they come.

Pang Xi was afraid that they would not come, because Pang Xi had no way out.

Another son of Pang Xi led another 1000-strong army to pursue Liu Zhang early in the morning with a large number of torches and flags. Under the guidance of Fazheng, he just pursued Liu Zhang and did not engage in battle.

Putting up more flags during the day, lighting more torches at night, and chasing them all the way can basically guarantee that that idiot Liu Zhang will not dare to look back and run forward desperately.

Even if someone wanted to watch it, that coward Liu Zhang didn't dare to watch it. As long as Liu Zhang didn't dare to watch it and wanted to run away, the Shu army would surely flee.

Fazheng even felt that if he was lucky, even Liu Zhang would not even want Yangping Pass, and fled back to Shuzhong to stick to Baishui Pass, then Pang Xi would be completely safe.

Fazheng did not miscalculate Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang was indeed a scumbag, and indeed fled back to Shuzhong, but Liu Zhang's subordinates were not all scumbags.

Wu Yi still has some skills, and he insisted on staying at Yangping Pass, and discovered the clue, defeated the 1000-man army led by Pang Xi's son, figured out the tricks of Fa Zheng and Pang Xi, was very annoyed, and decided to lead the army to counterattack Nanzheng.

Because Yangping Pass is not in his hands, Hanzhong's defense is not complete. If Yangping Pass cannot be taken, it will be unsafe for Pang Xi, and Wu Yi can counterattack at any time.

After getting the news, in order to ensure the safety of Nanzheng and ensure that Pang Xi can be a good leader after Guo Peng arrives, Fazheng suggested that Pang Xi personally lead the army to guard Mianyang County, occupy Dingjun Mountain and Tiandang Mountain, guard both sides of Mian River, and take advantage Terrain, in order to deal with Wu Yi's counterattack that may come.

Pang Xi thought it was right to do so, so he followed what Fazheng said.

In fact it is.

Wu Yi didn't retreat, which meant that Wu Yi didn't believe that it was the Wei army who came. Wu Yi saw through their tricks, led the army to counterattack, and defeated Pang Xi's son. After learning everything, he was very annoyed, so he decided to continue the counterattack.

But when Wu Yi led his army down the river to Mianyang County, he encountered resistance from Pang Xi, who had already formed a defensive line here.

Wu Yi scolded Pang Xi for being a traitor to his master, while Pang Xi scolded Wu Yi for not caring about his comrades, and scolded Liu Zhang for treachery and conspiracy to kill him.

"It wasn't Pang Xi who betrayed Liu Jiyu, it was Liu Jiyu who betrayed Pang Xi! It was Liu Jiyu who wanted to kill me! You all conspired to kill me. Would I want to kill me without resistance?"

Pang Xi blushed and scolded Wu Yi and Pang Xi angrily.

Wu Yi was taken aback. He never expected that Pang Xi would find out about this news. This was completely beyond Wu Yi's expectation, but in this way, everything that happened will be straightened out.

Pang Xi didn't know how to get the news that Liu Zhang and him conspired to kill Pang Xi, and then decided to act first and rebel.

Faced with Pang Xi's questioning, Wu Yi was speechless, and directly led the army to attack. Pang Xi commanded the army to resist fiercely.

The two armies fought fiercely for a while, Wu Yi lacked soldiers and horses, and lacked the advantages of terrain, so he was defeated by Pang Xi, and had to retreat to Yangping Pass, waiting for reinforcements.

Wu Yi believed that Pang Xi only had this army and could not occupy Hanzhong for a long time, so as soon as the reinforcements arrived, Hanzhong could be taken back.

At this moment, neither Wu Yi nor Yang Huai thought that Pang Xi had already called Guo Peng's father to save him.

Pang Xi didn't want to be Zhang Lu at all. He knew Zhang Lu's end, he personally ended Zhang Lu's separatist regime, and knew that it was meaningless to separate Hanzhong, so he chose to hug his thigh.

Hug a thigh that is too thick to be thicker.

Elephant legs!

Compared with the territory that Guo Peng has mastered, Hanzhong is of course very small, but its position is really too important.

After taking control of Hanzhong, even if Yizhou is not captured, Guo Peng will have another way to cross Longdi to attack Liangzhou.

The terrain of Longdi is dangerous, and it is very difficult to attack. Emperor Guangwu crusades, and has not broken through for four years, but once Guo Peng occupies Hanzhong, he will have another choice.

Although it is not easy to go.

And speaking of it, once Hanzhong is captured, Yizhou will be a piece of meat in his mouth.

Liu Zhang was terrified by Guo Peng, and lost a lot of soldiers and horses in Hanzhong, as well as a lot of food and fodder. As long as Guo Peng came to Hanzhong to get these things, he would have the confidence to go south to Shuzhong.

Pang Xi and Fazheng, as excellent leading parties, had lived in the middle of Sichuan for a long time and were familiar with the roads in the middle of Shu. As long as Pang Xi and Fazheng led the way, Guo Peng's southern expedition would not have any problems.

Can Liu Zhang still jump?

Originally, Liu Zhang guarded Hanzhong, but Guo Peng had to go through a lot of tossing to eat Hanzhong. It was not so easy, because the road was indeed difficult.

But now that Hanzhong was actually taken by Pang Xi, and he wanted to offer it to Guo Peng. If Guo Peng didn't seize the opportunity for such a good thing, it would really be out of character for him.

Chapter 612. 620 General Yi Pang is willing to be a pioneer, fighting bloody battles for Wei Gong, nine deaths without regret (repair)

In fact it is.

Guo Peng had seen that Chang'an had stabilized, and already had the idea of ​​returning to Yecheng.

He thought about returning to Yecheng, summing up the gains and losses of this Western Expedition, summing up the experience and lessons, and then started to launch a public opinion war, paving the way for himself to become emperor.

Sun Ce is dead, and the biggest obstacle no longer exists. Jiangdong's own internal strife can kill him, and Guo Peng is no longer a threat.

Now start the public opinion war and make trouble for a while, the next thing will be very interesting.

But just as he was about to leave to arrange a retreat, news of a political struggle in Hanzhong suddenly came.

The spies lurking inside Hanzhong sent the news, letting Guo Peng know about the fierce political struggle between the Dongzhou faction and the Yizhou faction under Liu Zhang.

Guo Peng himself is a veteran of political struggles, and he is very interested in this. He wants to see if Liu Zhang's political struggles can leave some gaps for him to win Hanzhong.

After staying in Guanzhong for a while, it can be regarded as accumulating some food and fodder and restoring the combat effectiveness of some troops. The reconstruction of Guanzhong is also progressing steadily, and the situation tends to be stable.

Wei Jun already has the ability to fight again in a certain sense, but Guo Peng is not very willing.

But if the internal political struggle in Yizhou gives him the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole, this golden opportunity cannot be missed.

Guo Peng stopped in Chang'an for the time being, and while continuing to pay attention to the news in this regard, he handed over some government and military affairs to Guo Jin, and asked him to cultivate a tacit understanding between him and his subordinates.

While cultivating successors, while paying attention to changes in the situation, Guo Peng kept a close eye on Hanzhong. When the news of Sun Ce's death came, the news of Wang Shang's death also came.

Guo Peng immediately decided that the political struggle in Hanzhong was not over yet and would be pushed to another peak. There would be a huge rift between the Dongzhou faction and the Yizhou faction, and people might even die.

The enemy's civil strife is his opportunity.

Isn't this his opportunity to enter Hanzhong?

Guo Peng immediately ordered to reorganize an army of 5000 people, and ordered Zhao Yun, Zhang Ying, Zhu Ling, Gao Lan, and Yan Liang to lead an army of 5000 people each, and station troops in the south of Chang'an.

Order Xu Chu and Dian Wei to rectify the Tiger Guards.

Order Chen Gong, Xun You, Lu Su, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, and Cao Hong to accompany him.

Then he ordered Guo Jin, Lu Yi, Xia Houshang, and Cao Zhen to follow him as counselors.

Seeing Guo Peng's actions like this, all the officials and officers under his command immediately understood that Guo Peng was about to move again.

That's right, Guo Peng is indeed going to make another move, but he didn't explain the reason at the beginning. This was just preparation, and he never said that he would actually send troops. Once the situation changes, the order to go out will become an order to withdraw troops.

Let's go back to Yecheng together.

If there is no problem in Hanzhong, he doesn't have to waste time in Guanzhong, he needs to go back to Hebei to make preparations.

If there are changes in Hanzhong, he must seize this opportunity.

He waited and waited, waited and waited, let him wait for the opportunity.

On February [-]th of the sixth year of Xingping, the county magistrate of Lantian escorted a few unkempt men, who said they had jumped out from the Luogu crossing. Their identities were unknown, and they shouted to see Wei Gong when they saw anyone, saying they were General Pang's messengers. , I want to see Wei Gong.

The magistrate of Lantian County saw that the leader had a good conversation and did not dare to make mistakes, so he personally led people to escort these people to Chang'an and reported the news.

When Zhang Zhao heard about this, he reported it to Guo Peng. When Guo Peng heard about it, he thought about who General Pang was, and suddenly thought of Pang Xi. His heart was shocked, and he immediately sent someone to bring these people to him.

The Tiger Guards escorted a group of five people to Guo Peng. When the first person saw Guo Peng, he immediately took out a roll of bamboo slips from his arms and offered it to Guo Peng with both hands.
