I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

"The final general thinks it is impossible." Zhang Ren, a general of the Sichuan Army, stood up, "Zhuge Liang, like Cao Xiong, was a hero at the time, and he had plans for Xishu. Berkshire also has Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two fierce generals. Please invite Jingzhou at this time. When the army enters Sichuan, I am afraid it is easier to ask the gods than to send them away."

Liu Zhang thought about it.Zhang Ren is a representative military general among the Bashu scholars, and he is also the inner pillar of the hermits in the Bashu land. Naturally, his heart is biased towards Zhang Ren.

Furthermore, even if the Western Shu surrendered to Zhuge Liang, Cao Xiong's army would still invade the Western Shu sooner or later, and the Western Shu would not be guaranteed after all.

Seeing everyone discussing, Liu Zhang sat in front of the case and said, "I have made up my mind, Xishu will regroup the army and horses, and prepare to fight Zhuge Liang."

Within a few days, Liu Zhang sent an additional [-] troops to Jiangzhou to defend Jiangzhou, and asked Yan Yan to stop Zhuge Liang's army under the city.

At the same time, Zhang Fei was ordered by Zhuge Liang to lead an army of [-] troops to the outside of Jiangzhou City, preparing to conquer Jiangzhou in the near future.

Zhang Fei came to Jiangzhou city to yell and scold him the first day, but no matter how much he yelled and scolded, Yan Yan just couldn't stand it.

"Old man Yan Yan!" Zhang Fei reined in his horse and cursed angrily under the city.

Yan Yan shot an arrow through Zhang Fei's helmet from the top of the city. Zhang Fei hated him and went back to the camp to curse. Immediately after the city was broken, he chopped off the old man's head.

Not long after, Zhang Fei came up with a plan, pretending to put down his banners and drums, and prepared to take a detour, but actually tricked Yan Yan into setting up an ambush in the small road outside the city.

Yan Yan went out from the small road outside the city that night, caught Zhang Fei's scheme, and was captured alive by Zhang Fei.Since then, the city of Jiangzhou was broken and fell into the hands of Zhuge Liang.

"General, Yan Yan is here!" The servant tied Yan Yan into a rice dumpling and pushed it in front of Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Zhang Fei raised his eyes, pointed at Yan Yan with his sword and said, "Old man Yan Yan! I finally caught you! Our army is approaching the city. If you don't surrender, how dare you fight our family?"

"You have unreasonably invaded my territory in Bashu. I only have generals who have lost their heads, and there are absolutely no generals who have surrendered!" Yan Yan bearded Zhang Fei angrily, trembling.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Zhang Fei raised his sword and was about to slash Yan Yan.

"If you surrender, you surrender, why be angry!" Yan Yan said to Zhang Fei with a blushing face.

The sword stopped in mid-air, and Zhang Fei was startled and angry by the heroic spirit of the veteran Yan Yan who refused to surrender.

Zhang Fei looked at the old general Yan Yibo Yuntian, and he had the demeanor of his second brother Guan Yu.It seems that this person is not Xiaoxiao's generation, it would be a pity to kill him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fei's black face immediately turned red, and he cut off the rope binding Yan Yan with a sword, and said, "We are just joking with you. The heroic spirit of the old general is admirable!"

Zhang Fei supported Yan Yan's arm, and immediately took him to the upper seat to be honored as a guest of honor, and said in a good voice, "My elder brother Liu Bei also focused on benevolence and righteousness, and was loyal to the Han Dynasty. The current military advisor Kong Ming is also in the name of loyalty. How about General Yan, think about it, how about joining our army and contributing to the peace of the world?"

Yan Yan knew that it was Zhang Fei who stepped him down, and he himself had admired Uncle Liu Huang for a long time. Now that Zhang Fei treats each other with courtesy, Zhuge Liang is indeed like a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and he is worth fighting for with his old bones.

Yan Yan was no longer polite, stood up and bowed to Zhang Fei, "Zhuge Liang has a kind heart, and he is also kind to the army, Yan Yan is willing to surrender!" Yan Yan stood up and bowed to Zhang Fei.

Chapter 1493

At this time, tens of thousands of surrendered troops from Jiangzhou were stuffed into the hands of Fan Qiang and Zhang Da.

In the evening, after dinner.Fan Da stood on the high platform, the winter wind was blowing, and he felt a little cold when he saw tens of thousands of soldiers queuing up to receive their meals.

"General Fan, General Zhang has an order, ordering you and General Zhang Da to go to see him immediately."

Can't hide!

In Zhang Fei's lobby, Fan Qiang saw Zhang Da who was half kneeling on the ground.

"General Zhang!" Fan Qiang said while kneeling and cupping his hands.

"You can't even make a filial piety! Do you want me to wait until my elder brother's bones are cold?" Zhang Fei cursed angrily.

"General Zhang, there are tens of thousands more surrendered soldiers in this city! The reserve is really insufficient!" Fan Qiang explained.

"Come here! Drag these two people out and give them fifty military whips!" Zhang Fei waved his hand, and Fan Qiang and Zhang Da were dragged out again.

"General Zhang, spare your life!" After a while, the screams of the two being whipped came from outside.

In the city of Chengdu, on Liu Zhang's table, there was news that Jiangzhou City was broken, and Yan Yan, the general guarding the city, had also surrendered to Zhuge Liang.

"Everyone, Zhuge Liang's army is about to approach Mianzhu Pass, who wants to lead troops to guard Mianzhu Pass?" Liu Zhang looked at Zhu Jun.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and discussed in detail for a while.

"I wish to go!" Li Yan stood up, looked at Liu Zhang again and begged for orders.

"Okay!" Liu Zhang looked at Li Yan and said excitedly, "I appoint you as the governor, and I will add another [-] troops to Mianzhu Pass. Please strictly abide by Mianzhu Pass!"

A few days later, Huang Quan came to Liu Zhang's case with the battle report, but bowed his head and remained silent.

"Huang Quan?" Liu Zhang looked at Huang Quan suspiciously, "What's the matter with you?"

"Master..." Huang Quan couldn't bear to look at him, "Mianzhuguan came to report, Li Yan led his troops to surrender Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang took Mianzhuguan without a single soldier. Now Mianzhu, Even the people and the city... are lost!"

Huang Quan handed over the battle report, and Liu Zhang opened it in horror, feeling that the blood in his veins was cold.

Zhuge Liang rewarded the three armies in the camp, preparing to rectify the army and attack Luocheng in a few days.

The Mianzhu army was defeated, Zhang Ren and Liu Guihe retreated to Luocheng, where they merged with Liu Xun, the son of Liu Zhang.

Zhuge Liang's army merged into one place and soon surrounded Luocheng.

Zhang Fei brought five thousand soldiers to the Jinyan Bridge, and Zhang Ren immediately threw his gun across the Jinyan Bridge.

"Zhang Yide! How dare you come and fight with me!" Zhang Ren pointed his gun at Zhang Fei and said.

"Why don't you dare!? Dude, watch me, Zhang Fei, poke some black holes in you!" After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he jumped onto the bridge and rushed towards Zhang Ren.

Zhang Ren was not afraid at all, and faced Zhang Fei with his horse on the bridge. He danced with a silver spear so well that Zhang Fei didn't make any money from fighting with him for dozens of rounds!

"Zhang Fei, look at my hundred birds facing the phoenix spear!" Zhang Renyi's silver spear seemed to point out several silver flowers, which made Zhang Fei overwhelmed.Taking advantage of Qiaoyou's unstable situation, Zhang Renxuan shot Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei quickly reined in his horse.

As expected, Zhang Ren was born in the same division as Zhao Yun. He is senior brother Zhao Yun, so he really has two talents.With the exquisite dance of a spear, this Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear is well-deserved of its reputation!

Zhang Fei couldn't stand fighting on the bridge, so he reined in his horse and returned to the shore.

"Mr. Zhang Ren, how dare you cross the bridge and fight another hundred rounds!" Zhang Fei's thunderous voice overwhelmed the sound of the river and reached the opposite bank.

"Zhang Yide! You practice for another 100 years, and come face to face with me again!" Zhang Ren laughed out loud, causing the three armies behind him to laugh.

Zhang Fei scolded but had no choice but to withdraw his troops angrily, and went back to report to Zhuge Liang.

"That guy Zhang Ren deceived my army that we couldn't cross the river, otherwise, I would have poked dozens of holes in him!" Zhang Fei was furious in Zhuge Liang's face.

Zhuge Liang gave Zhang Fei a toast with a feather fan and a towel with a smile, "General Zhang calm down, half of the expedition to Bashu fell into our hands. General Zhang is the first. The Jinyan Bridge is the natural danger of Bashu. It is the last throat of Chengdu and is not easy to attack. .Our next plan is Tianshui!"

Chapter 1494 Zhuge Liang scolds Wang Lang

An urgent report came from the Xiliang Army that Zhuge Liang had already sent troops to feint in the Tianshui area, guessing that he would take action against the cities around Tianshui in the near future.

Cao Cao sat at the table in the lobby and told everyone about it. He put down the bamboo slips and said, "I am going to send an army to help Ma Chao. Who do you think is suitable to lead the army?"

Everyone's first reaction is naturally that the eldest son Cao Xiong is the most suitable.Cao Xiong is well versed in the art of war, and recently defeated Zhuge Liang in Bajun and Jiangyang.For this expedition, Cao Xiong is the best candidate.

Just as everyone was discussing, Jia Xu paced out and said, "I think that Cao Xiong's army has just returned from the battle, and the rest is not over yet, so it is not appropriate to rush to go out again. Zhuge Liang is just sending out false soldiers at this time, pretending to move around, and did not Form a prairie fire. My suggestion is to worship Cao Zhen as the governor, Guo Huai as the deputy governor, and raise 20 troops to help Ma Chao."

At this time, the 70-year-old Wang Lang suddenly took a step forward. After paying homage to Cao Cao, he said loudly, "General Cao Zhen is a minister of the country and cannot refuse. Although the old minister is dull, he is willing to go with the general!"

"Wang Lang, you are 70 years old, can you still do it with this body?" Cao Cao asked suspiciously, "Then Zhuge Liang is known as Zhuge Yaodao. It may not be easy to fight against him."

Wang Lang lifted his sleeve and flicked it, "This old man came out on his own, and with just a few words, he taught that Zhuge Liang to surrender, and taught that Shu soldier to retreat without fighting!"

"Wang Jingxing's toughness is no less than that of Zhao Guolianpo in the Warring States Period. I worship you as the military advisor of the army and go out with the army!" Cao Cao was overjoyed and sent his army out of the west gate before returning.

Many days later, in front of Qi Shan's formation, Cao Jun and Han Army lined up to meet them!

After the three armies beat the drums, Wang Sima came out on horseback. On the right was the governor Cao Zhen, and on the left was the deputy governor Guo Huai.The vanguards of the two teams suppressed the corners of the formation, sent spies to the front of the army and shouted, "Please answer the general!"

Zhuge Liang's army split into two places in front of the formation, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao came out on the left and right respectively on horseback, and stood on both sides.Next to the door banner, a four-wheeled vehicle slowly drove out in the middle.

Zhuge Liang sat in the car, with a feather fan, a scarf, plain clothes and white strips, floating out like an immortal.Zhuge Liang looked up and saw an old man with white beard and hair in the middle of the opposite side. It was Cao Jun's military adviser-Situ Wanglang!

Zhuge Liang taught and guarded the army small school to send a message: "Zhuge Liang is talking to Wang Situ!"

Wang Lang rode out on his horse, Zhuge Liang clasped his hands and saluted in the car, Wang Lang bowed his body on the horse and answered the salute, and the salute was over.

Wang Lang said loudly: "I have heard Zhuge Liang's name for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet you today. Since you claim to know the destiny and the current affairs, why did you raise this unknown soldier? You can completely drop your troops, surrender with courtesy, and go up Wouldn't it be beautiful to be a Marquis and secure peace for the people?"

Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan with a smile and said, "I thought you, as a veteran official of the Han Dynasty, would have a high opinion when you came to the front of the three armies, but I didn't expect you to say such vulgar words! You hide your head and look for food and clothing. Why face to see the 24 emperors of the first dynasty? You quickly step back and let Cao Zhen come and fight with me!"

After hearing Zhuge Liang's yelling, Wang Lang screamed, "Ah!"He suddenly felt the back of his head, chest tightness and shortness of breath, and fell off the horse after vomiting a mouthful of blood.

"Wang Lang is dead! Everyone, follow me!" Zhang Bao shouted with a gun, and rushed up with the army, Cao Jun was defeated directly!

Cao Zhen retreated, and Tianshui City was soon occupied by Zhuge Liang.

In Tianshui City, Zhuge Liang met the unicorn son Jiang Wei.

Zhuge Liang visited Jiang Wei's mother before, and after meeting Jiang Wei in Tianshui City, he passed a letter to his mother.

Jiang Wei knelt down on the spot after reading the letter, regretting that he had served the Cao army before, but now he is willing to surrender to the Han army, and serve as a dog and horse behind Zhuge Liang's saddle.

At the same time, Li Yan also sent a message to Liu Chan, "Sir, the former master Liu Bei has always regarded himself as orthodox in the Han Dynasty. Now the time has come, you can announce to the world that you can call yourself Shu and posthumously posthumously the former master as Emperor Zhaolie!"

Chapter 1495 Cao Xiong's Loneliness

Yecheng, at night.

Cao Pi was drinking alone in the mansion, thinking about what happened in Wu Zhi's mansion.

Since Cao Xiong tricked him into putting on a cuckold, Guo Zhao disappeared.

Before Guo Zhao left, he left a cloth note for Cao Pi with only two words written on it, "Don't read it."

Cao Pi was very distressed after seeing the cloth strip left by Guo Zhao, and decided to ask Wu again.

He went to the prison, where Wu Zhi is now, and after questioning, he learned that the facts were not what he saw.

"I also fell asleep in the house in the middle of the night. After waking up for some reason, I saw Mrs. Bian and the young masters there. As for Mrs. Guo, I dare not think about it." Wu Zhi kowtowed and said.

Seeing Wu Zhi's frightened look, Cao Pi realized that he had misunderstood Guo Zhao.

After returning from prison, he missed Guo Zhao even more.

Cao Pi didn't go out of the house all day long. Now that his most trusted counselor Xun Yu died, Mrs. Bian didn't want to see him either.Cao Pi could only drink in the mansion all day long, making himself fascinated.

Cao Xiong has also encountered some troubles recently.

Zhuge Liang's actions in Tianshui soon spread to Yecheng and Cao Xiong's mansion.But Cao Xiong can't care about the war in the west now, because he's troubled by something that happened recently——Wan'er is missing!

Cao Xiong found Cao Ying, and Cao Ying said to him, "I only know that I saw Miss Wan'er go to a teahouse in the city to listen to stories."

Cao Xiong hurried to a storytelling teahouse in the city, and asked about the people inside. The little boy said, "Miss Wan'er often comes to our place to listen to books, just to know the situation of the war in Hanzhong as soon as possible. When she hears that Mr. Xiong has defeated the Shu army, the young lady will be happy; whenever she hears that Cao army has lost, she will show worry."

It was only then that Cao Xiong realized that Wan'er had always had her own in her heart.

Cao Xiong can't find Wan'er now, and he doesn't know whether Wan'er wants to see him or not.

At this time, news came from the mansion that Sun Shangxiang was going back to Soochow.

"What's the situation?" Cao Xiong asked the servants in the mansion.

"Miss received a letter from Soochow, saying that the news of Liu Chan's proclaiming emperor reached Soochow. Soochow's civil servants and military generals were also divided into two factions. One faction wanted Sun Quan to follow Liu Chan and establish himself as emperor, and make Sun Deng the crown prince. The other faction believes that Eastern Wu is weak and should surrender to Cao Wei in order to seek asylum."

Sun Shangxiang came to see Cao Xiong early and told Cao Xiong about this matter.

"Do you have something you want me to bring to my brother?" Sun Shangxiang asked Cao Xiong.

"Say hello to Wu Guotai for me, let your brother and the others be the masters of the military affairs." Cao Xiong said to Sun Shangxiang.

Cao Xiong decided to respect Sun Shangxiang's opinion and bid farewell to Sun Shangxiang. Sun Shangxiang immediately rushed to Soochow.

The relationship between Wu and Wei is of great importance, Cao Xiong's influence can't turn the tide for the time being, and Sun Shangxiang's return is only for the many people around Wu Guotai to relieve worries.

Lingju came to visit Cao Xiong at night, Cao Xiong sat at the table without saying a word because he missed Wan'er, Lingju came up and made him some tea that would help him sleep.

Seeing Cao Xiong's unhappy look, Lingju decided to help him find Wan'er.

The next day, when Cao Xiong woke up in the morning, he saw a letter next to his couch. He took the letter over and looked, and it turned out that Ma Yunlu had left it for him.

"My lord is awake." The servants brought him water to wash his face.

"When did you get this letter?" Cao Xiong asked the servant strangely.
