Gan Ning obtained the imperial seal and returned victoriously to the water village.
When Gan Ning obtained the jade seal, the confrontation between Zhang Lu and Wang Can also began in Hanzhong.
After Zhang Lu led the army to replenish food and grass in Nanjiang County, he continued to lead the army towards Hanzhong. During this period, Zhang Lu continued to convene the army's generals to talk and win over most of the army's generals, making the entire army penetrate Zhang Lu's will
.Those generals who were unwilling to be used by Zhang Lu had their rights emptied by Zhang Lu and became generals without real power.
Although Zhang Xiu was Zhang Lu's lieutenant, through Zhang Lu's coercion and suppression, Zhang Xiu's power was almost completely controlled by Zhang Lu and he became a bare commander.
Entering Hanzhong, Yan Pu suggested that Zhang Lu march quickly, hoping to catch Wang Can by surprise, kill Wang Can in one fell swoop, and separatize Hanzhong.
Therefore, Zhang Lu led the army and rushed on the road without stopping.
The small counties in Hanzhong also directly bypassed them and went straight to Nanzheng County, the capital of Hanzhong County, hoping to get to Nanzheng as soon as possible to get rid of Wang Can and complete his great cause.
Zhang Lu was riding on a war horse, inspecting the soldiers back and forth, with a proud look on his face.
When the army headed towards Nanzheng, they encountered no resistance from the Hanzhong soldiers, which made Zhang Lu relax his vigilance and thought that Wang Can's appearance was false and not worthy of his name.
Looking at the majestic soldiers, he couldn't help but ask: "Zimao, how far is it from Nanzheng?"
Yan Pu heard this and said: "Master, the scouts reported that it will take two days to reach Nanzheng."
"There are only two days left!" Zhang Lu showed joy on his face and laughed: "Okay, okay, order the army to speed up. We must reach Nanzheng within one day and eliminate Wang Can."
Yan Pu did not carry out Zhang Lu's order, but raised his hands and said: "Master Shi, the army has entered the border of Hanzhong, but it has not encountered Hanzhong soldiers yet. Pu thinks that Wang Can is shrinking his troops and concentrating all the forces of Hanzhong in the south."
Zheng County, when Shijun leads the army to Nanzheng, we will fight with Shijun."
Zhang Lu nodded repeatedly and said in a deep voice: "Zimao's words are very reasonable. If Wang Can is waiting for me in Nanzheng, he should speed up and reach Nanzheng as soon as possible."
Yan Pu shook his head and persuaded: "Shijun, although the army can reach Nanzheng in a short time by speeding up, it will definitely make the soldiers mentally exhausted and lack of physical strength. If they fight Wang Can immediately, it will be very detrimental to Shijun. Shijun
Jun led the army to travel long distances and was exhausted; while Wang Can's soldiers gathered in Nanzheng, ready for battle, and were full of energy. Once the two armies fought, our army would inevitably be affected. Therefore, Pu suggested that Shijun slow down the march and allow the soldiers to maintain their pace.
Have enough energy to wait for the army to arrive in Nanzheng, give Wang Can a fatal blow, and completely defeat Wang Can."
After hearing this, Zhang Lu smiled and said: "What Zi Mao said is very reasonable. If Zi Mao hadn't reminded me, I would have almost fallen into Wang Can's trick. I have Zi Mao, so I have nothing to worry about!" After a pause, Zhang Lu ordered:
"Send the order, the army slows down and strives to reach Nanzheng within two days for a decisive battle with Wang Can."
After the order was issued, Zhang Lu inspected the soldiers on horseback and encouraged them.
Yan Pu looked at Zhang Lu's back and frowned slightly.
At this moment, Yan Pu's face no longer looked calm and calm, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes. The army was flowing smoothly, although according to his inference, it would be reasonable to say that Wang Can and Zhang Lu went to Nanzheng to fight to the death. But Yan Pu felt that things were not right.
Maybe it's so simple, Wang Can won't sit still and wait for death.
However, Yan Pu couldn't figure out what Wang Can's intention was, so he could only adapt to the changes and wait for Wang Can's reaction.
The army moved forward slowly, heading in the direction of Nanzheng.
"Da da!……"
The sound of horse hooves came from far away, and a scout galloped towards Zhang Lu.
"Report!"
The scouts shouted loudly and seemed very anxious.
The soldiers blocking the way of the scouts all moved out of the way. It was a major military matter, and no soldier dared to stand there and block the way of the scouts. The scouts ran to Zhang Lu, got off their horses, bowed their hands to Zhang Lu, and gasped.
He said with a rough breath: "Go back...back...back to your lord, ahead..."
Zhang Lu frowned slightly and shouted: "Take a breath and wait until your breathing stabilizes."
The scout looked at Zhang Lu gratefully, calmed down the turbulent breath in his chest, and said loudly: "Sir, we saw the Hanzhong army galloping five miles ahead."
Zou Shan came to Yanpu on horseback and asked: "How many people are there in the Hanzhong Army? Have you found out clearly?"
The scout replied: "It is estimated that there are about a thousand people!"
After Zhang Lu heard this, his tense expression suddenly relaxed. He thought Wang Can's army was coming, but he didn't expect it was a soldier who was going to die. Zhang Lu laughed loudly and said loudly: "Wang Can is arrogant and arrogant.
, do you want to defeat this general with just a thousand soldiers? Well, this general led an army of 30,000 people and had 6,000 elite soldiers. He could easily wipe out a thousand Hanzhong Army. The army speeded up and waited until the Hanzhong Army was defeated.
Slow down."
"promise!"
The scout responded and turned around to deliver the order.
At a distance of five miles, two armies heading towards each other and rushing on their way can encounter each other in a short time.
For a quarter of an hour, the two armies lined up and prepared for battle.
Zhang Lu held a sword and stood at the front of the military formation on horseback.
He looked at the general opposite and saw that the general was extremely strong and strong, exuding an unruly wildness, which surprised Zhang Lu. However, Zhang Lu recovered quickly and looked at the general with a ferocious face and a complexion as dark as black coal.
The general shouted loudly: "Wu Nai, tell me your name!"
After the words fell, Yan Pu stretched out his head and leaned next to Zhang Lu, and whispered: "Master, this person's name is Pei Yuanshao, and he is a general under Wang Can's command."
After Zhang Lu heard this, he shouted loudly: "Pei Heitan, surrender quickly, I will spare your life."
Pei Yuanshao felt very uncomfortable when he saw Zhang Lu's arrogance. He thought that Pei Yuanshao was a famous man and had experienced hundreds of battles. He had never taken the lead and killed the enemy bravely.
However, this time he had to take the initiative to defeat the battle, which made Pei Yuanshao very unhappy.
Pei Yuanshao stared at Zhang Lu with eyes like daggers, and shouted loudly: "Zhang Lu, son, you are not overestimating your own capabilities. Who will give you the guts to attack Hanzhong? I think you have eaten the guts of an ambitious leopard. You must be tired of living!"
Seeing that you look like a dog, if you voluntarily give up your weapons and surrender, I promise to put in a good word for you in front of the lord and save your life. Not only that, I will also let you serve as a centurion. What do you think?
?”
Human and dog-like!
Centurion!
Damn it!
A series of words were all directed at Zhang Lu. After hearing Pei Yuanshao's words of solicitation, Zhang Lu turned pale with anger and trembled all over. Zhang Lu looked at Pei Yuanshao bitterly and shouted: "Where is Yang Bai?"
When Yang Bai heard this, he immediately rode out of the queue and said loudly: "Master, the last general is here."
Yang Bai is extremely handsome, with a white face and eyebrows at the temples. He is wearing a black armor and has an iron spear in his hand. He is riding on a war horse. He is carrying a heroic spirit that is admirable. He holds the spear across his chest and looks at it.
Pei Yuanshao stood opposite the military formation, showing a strong fighting spirit.
Zhang Lu shouted: "Pei Yuanshao is arrogant and arrogant, are you sure that he can kill this guy?"
Yang Bai clasped his hands into fists and shouted: "My lord, wait for the good news."
After saying that, Yang Bai galloped towards Pei Yuanshao.
Yang Bai was also very measured in his words. Zhang Lu asked him if he was sure of killing Pei Yuanshao. If Yang Bo replied that he was not sure of killing Pei Yuanshao, he would definitely be scolded by Zhang Lu; however, if he answered that he could kill Pei Yuanshao, he failed in the end.
, it definitely seems that he is incompetent.
Therefore, Yang Bai's answer of "waiting for good news" is undoubtedly the most appropriate way of saying it.
Yang Bai held a spear in his hand and shouted: "Pei Yuanshao, take your life."
