Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun were so confused that they took control of Yangping Pass and didn't recover. They had led troops to fight for so many years, and they had never fought such a bizarre battle.

After fighting for three days, they failed to take down Yangping Pass. When they attacked at night, a herd of elk came to help and took it down. After the fight, they ran away, so that they couldn't find the deer even if they wanted to thank them.

Is the boundary of Hanzhong so magical?

In the past, I only heard that the people here believe in ghosts and gods. I didn’t expect that even the game in the mountains and forests, ah no, I didn’t expect that even the rare and exotic animals in the mountains and forests are so human. But here comes the problem. It is Hanzhong who believe in ghosts and gods People instead of them, why did those deer help them and not Zhang Wei?

Could it be that the deer in the Hanzhong forest had heard of their lord's virtue, and turned to the light to take the lead, representing the rare and exotic beasts in the Qinling forest to express their feelings first?

Hey, it's not impossible.

Cao Ren was full of strange ideas, it was too long to delay and something happened. He brought a large army to control Yangping Pass overnight, and the soldiers in the barracks had nowhere to escape and had to surrender. The next morning, he sent an order as soon as the fog cleared. The soldiers sent the news to Chang'an, and after arranging everything properly, they realized that Xiahou Dun disappeared after he called in.

what's the situation?

Cao Zixiao casually pulled a soldier to ask where Xiahou Dun was going, followed the guidance all the way to the side of the ravine, looked at Xiahou Dun standing on the edge of the cliff, and then looked at the busy soldiers in the ravine, wondering what they were doing, "Under Is there any gold?"

"There's no gold underneath." Xiahou Dun glanced back at him listlessly, and leaned against the vicissitudes of the tree trunk, and said, "There's Zhang Wei underneath."

Cao Ren: ? ? ?

"Zhang Wei ran away?"

Cao Zixiao subconsciously raised his voice. He rushed back to the camp yesterday to lead his troops. After returning, he immediately surrounded Zhang Wei's camp. Only those elks who fell from the sky and helped him were released. Zhang Wei is the enemy's commander. How did he get out?

Xiahou Dun squeezed his shoulders, and the expression on his face became even more vicissitudes, "The soldiers saw with their own eyes that Zhang Wei was chased by a herd of elk and ran out in a panic. The people were horrible, and I don’t know if it was a person or a corpse that was recovered.”

Cao Ren:  …

hiss!How miserable!

"So where did those deer come from, and how did they help us tackle the problem so, uh, so precisely?" Cao Zixiao asked cautiously, feeling that this place was a bit mysterious, not because he was timid, but because the deer were outrageously over the top.

In case he made a loud voice and was heard by the deer hiding in the dark and eavesdropping, wouldn't it be them who were charged tonight?

It's not right, Zi said respect ghosts and gods and keep them far away, ghosts are the spirits of ancestors, gods are the spirits of mountains and rivers, neither can offend, it's better not to offend either, God knows where those deer come from, he doesn't want to spend midnight It was horrible to be kicked and kicked and thrown down the valley to fend for itself.

Yangpingguan Mountain is high and the valley is deep. No one can tell which corner Zhang Wei was kicked to. Cao Ren looked down for a while, rubbed his arms and dragged Xiahou Dun away, "It's useless to stare here, hurry back to work, I just sent Someone sent a letter to Ma Chao, if they travel fast, they may be able to catch up with us to attack the city together."

Winning Yangping Pass was only the first battle. There are many cities in Hanzhong. Zhang Lu controls not only Hanzhong County, but also many counties to the west of Berkshire. Yizhou is no better than the Central Plains. On this side of the state, there are thousands of rocks and ravines, and there are many mountains and mountains. Zhang Lu took people to hide in the mountains.

If they attack the city early rather than late, Zhang Lu will be less likely to escape if they pass a day earlier. Compared with Zhang Lu, Zhang Wei's life or death is not important at all.

They are the vanguard. After taking Yangping Pass, they will continue to fight forward. The cleaning of the battlefield will be left to Cao Hong and Xia Houyuan behind. They can't let them do everything. Cao Zilian said every day that he is not prudent. It's not that he is unsteady, it's that the deer in the mountains are unsteady, the job of finding people is handed over to others, and they just go ahead and fight.

Cao Ren is now in the shadow of the valley, afraid that a herd of deer and wolves will come looking for him. If it is a rabbit, it will be fine, and they can be caught as food for the soldiers. Thousands of deer will come rushing to serve them as food. Not necessarily, if you want to replace the deer with a wolf, then it's over, just wash your neck and wait to die.

I hope that there are only spirits in the mountains in Hanzhong, and that this kind of thing will not happen again during the siege. Even if the kind god who came to help stood on their side, he would be afraid.

The advance troops who attacked Yangping Pass quickly took down the pass and continued to move forward. Anyway, Yangping Pass is surrounded by mountains, and there are no people living except for the soldiers stationed there. Cao Ren and the others left the soldiers to close the pass. Cao Hong and Xia Houyuan, who come early, have jobs that come early, and jobs that come late, no one will be idle.

Zhang Lu didn't have much hope for his younger brother, they are blood brothers, no one knows the other, Zhang Wei's ability is not bad in Hanzhong's opinion, he is not enough for the soldiers under Uehara Situ, let alone the opposite this time There are also more titans from Xiliang, and both sides send troops to Hanzhong at the same time. Even if his grandson is reborn, he may not be able to defend Hanzhong.

Zhang Wei's defeat was expected, but it's beyond imagination that that guy was kicked and kicked by a group of elk and flew into the valley when he was guarding the gate. Standing up abruptly, I couldn't believe my ears, "Are you sure it's the elk in the mountains? Isn't it the opponent's soldier?"

The soldier who sent the message nodded with certainty, "It is indeed the elk in the mountains. There are thousands of them. Many brothers saw it with their own eyes at that time. There is absolutely no fake."

Zhang Lu turned pale in shock and waved his hand to make people retreat, staggered back to the first seat, and muttered to himself in disbelief, "How could it be a deer in the mountains? What did that kid Zhang Wei do?"

When he started his career in the early years, he followed the same path as his ancestors. He became famous mainly by treating diseases for the common people. There are many medicinal herbs in the mountains of the Qinling Mountains, and many common diseases can be cured by herbal medicines. The herbal water he brewed was made by him. Of course, he knew that it was not spells but herbs that could really cure diseases.

Herbal medicine is needed to make medicine, and if you want it, you have to go to the mountains frequently. He has dealt with wild animals in the mountains in his early years. There are all kinds of roe deer, elk, rabbits and wild boars. There are few people in the mountains. Meat.

He had never seen a situation where thousands of elks broke out together, and he couldn't figure out why those elks went crazy and stormed the barracks. Zhang Wei couldn't station the camp in the place where the elks used to graze and have fun, right?

The mountain is so big, and there are only less than 3 people stationed at Yangping Pass. Even if it occupies a small part of the territory, it will not prevent them from eating. A group of animals are just so vengeful?

Zhang Lu beat his head and didn't know what to say, but even if he believed that Zhang Wei accidentally offended thousands of elk and caused the elk in the mountain to take revenge collectively in the middle of the night, he didn't want to believe that the other party had the help of the mountain god.

He is the only one who can communicate with heaven and earth in Hanzhong. If he really lets the people know that the gods in the mountains help others to beat them, should Wudou Mi Dao still have a foothold in Yizhou?

Zhang Lu was walking back and forth in the room. After a while, Yan Pu hurriedly begged to see him, and the first thing he said after entering was, "My lord, something is wrong."

There are rumors that the deer descended from the sky, saying that the deer descended to the earth to help Cao Jun break through the Yangping Pass. The people were anxious and panicked, thinking that they had offended the ghosts and gods, and now the ghosts and gods sent real sons of gods to come to replace them.

Zhang Lu: ...

I'm really afraid of what's coming.

"Zimao, do you think it's okay for us to surrender right now?" Zhang Lutuo sighed, knowing that the other party would not let the handle fly away. There are countless capable people under Yuan Situ's command, and he can think of attacking the other party I can definitely figure it out.

How terrible it is to disturb the hearts of the people after the war.

Yan Pu held his breath for a while, trying to persuade Zhang Lu who just wanted to surrender, "My lord, don't be impatient. If you surrender at this time, you will definitely be looked down upon by the opponent. Even if you surrender, the opponent may not necessarily save your life."

Zhang Lu thumped his forehead with a headache, "How long do you think we can resist?"

"It's not necessary to resist." Yan Pu shook his head. Surrendering directly may not save his family and life, but resisting with troops will definitely not save his family and life. The enemy is close at hand, and they have only one way to go. When the city enters the mountains, there are not a few mountain people who refuse to obey the imperial court's discipline, and we will unite with the mountain people, and Yuan Situ will definitely not do anything wrong when he sees this."

Since ancient times, the mountain people were not easy to get along with, let alone offend. Those people gathered together and lived in disobedience to the court. Taxation and service had nothing to do with them.

Entering the mountain is risky, and if you are not careful, you will die. Yuan Situ should not want to deal with those people at this time.

Zhang Lu pinched his chin and thought about it for a while, and felt that this idea was very good, "Okay, let's follow Zimao's plan."

Although he was a bit reluctant to part with the treasures, money, and food that he had accumulated over the years, compared with his life, he could put aside his belongings temporarily, and he could save money and food in the future. If he lost his life, he would really have nothing.

He is walking quickly now, Yuan Situ saw that he went into the mountain to contact the mountain people, maybe he would send someone to persuade him to surrender, he would be looked down upon if he voluntarily surrendered, and he would not be looked down upon if he surrendered after putting forward conditions.

Hurry up to pack up your things and leave, and wait for Yuan Situ to send someone to surrender. According to Yuan Situ's usual practice, he must be polite first and then soldier. As long as they can grasp that speed, they will be promoted.

Cao Renxiahoudun and Ma Chao headed straight for Nanzheng City, the headquarters of Hanning County, after meeting up with Ma Chao. Several people discussed several ways to attack the city on the way. Looking at Zhang Wei's resistance at Yangping Pass, he knew that Zhang Lu would not be captured without a fight. It's a real tough fight.

The cavalry and infantry who came from afar were ready to fight against the enemy, but when they arrived outside Nanzheng City, they found that there were no soldiers guarding the city at all. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Xiahou Dun sent several scouts to the city to inquire about the news. Be more vigilant up and down than when marching.

There were no soldiers and horses waiting outside the city gate, and they must all be in the city. Zhang Lu wanted to lure them into the city urn to catch turtles. Such a hasty strategy can be guessed without a brain.

The enemy opens the door and waits for them to enter the city, and the fool will enter directly.

The army set up camp outside the city, and Cao Ren and Ma Chao stood talking not far outside the city, feeling that there must be an ambush in the city.

"There are no guards, and the people go in and out as usual. Are these people played by Zhang Lu?" Cao Ren crossed his arms thoughtfully, "If Zhang Lu sent people to play these people on the road, wouldn't the scouts enter the city pretending to be refugees? You will be discovered just after entering?"

Ma Chao shook his head, and replied in a very firm tone, "It should not be an act. Look at the appearance of these people and their whereabouts. They should be farmers from villages outside the city who come to the city to sell things. If Zhang Lu finds them to act If you lie to us, it is impossible not to show it in your demeanor."

The two murmured for a while, and they didn't go back to the camp to rest until it was dark. The scouts would not come out until at least tomorrow. Zhang Lu would definitely do something else when he saw that they hadn't entered the city. He couldn't take it lightly tonight.

The guy who pretends to be a ghost is so full of loopholes in his tricks, hasn't he read military books?

The army stationed outside the city of Nanzheng did not take off their armor and took strict precautions, waiting for Zhang Lu's second wave of poor tactics. However, they were nervous all night, and the patrolling soldiers kept their eyes open until dawn, until the scouts who entered the city to inquire Returning did not wait for the raid they had imagined.

Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, and Ma Chao gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army, and looked at each other after listening to the scouts' report, especially Xiahoudun and Cao Ren, they felt that the deer descended from the sky was already very strange when they attacked Yangping Pass, but they didn't expect that something even more strange was yet to come.

Zhang Wei was thrown into the valley by the elk and has not been found yet. Zhang Lu directly led his cronies and soldiers to abandon the city and fled. They are embarrassed to fight even if they want to fight.

Ma Chaochang has never seen this scene at such a young age. He sneered when he heard that the deer descended from the sky helped Cao Ren and the others fight. He thought that after the battle, Cao Ren and the others made up the story of the deer descended from the sky to boost morale. , and make the other party's people no longer resist, why not do it?

This kind of nagging little story may not be easy to put in other places. In Hanzhong, people basically believe it when it is told. It is much more convenient to use words than to use knives.

He now believes that there may be a deer descended from heaven to help fight the war. Not only does he believe that there is a deer descended from heaven, but now he will not doubt that the elk was found by Zhang Lu through communication with heaven and earth. If he is really capable, he may not be unable to do such a thing.

After the scouts entered the city, they split up and searched the entire city of Nanzheng. The treasury and the prefect's mansion were all open. The people in the city were all believers in the five buckets of rice. I don't feel that I have sinned against ghosts and gods, so even if the doors of the treasury and the prefect's mansion are wide open, no one goes in to get things.

All the soldiers and guards disappeared, which was convenient for them to inquire about the news. After a day and a night of searching, they were sure that there was no place in the city where Xia Zhanglu's soldiers could hide.

Xiahoudun couldn't believe that good things would happen to them one after another. Looking at the wide open Nanzheng City, he made a cautious decision, "Don't go into the city first, send someone to pass the news to Chang'an, and wait for Zilian and Miao Just come over and talk."

If you don't have anything to show your courtesy, if you're not cheating or stealing, first ask their boss what they think, and then wait for the big troops to come and join them. They are still too few. When Cao Hong and Xia Houyuan come to Nanzheng, even if there is an ambush in the city not afraid.

God, a sudden shock can scare a person to death.
