After Tian Feng accepted Wang Can's appointment, he stayed for two days, then said goodbye to Wang Can and went to Baocheng County to take up his post. Although Tian Feng did not want to see Wang Can, he reluctantly did so after his wife Tian's persuasion.
Wang Can, and then left Hanzhong.
Tian Feng went to take office, and his family members also left.
Wang Can did not detain Tian Feng's family members, which made Tian Feng feel a little better about Wang Can.
According to Tian Feng's thoughts, Wang Can would definitely move his family to Chengdu, or leave his family in Hanzhong as hostages, but Wang Can asked his family to accompany him, which surprised Tian Feng.
Such a bold move is not something ordinary people would dare to do.
No matter what, Tian Feng was very happy to be able to take his family away.
In fact, Tian Feng never thought that with his ability, it would be impossible to leave Yizhou.
Baocheng is located in the northwest of Nanzheng County. To the east is the vast area of Hanzhong; to the north is the hinterland of Guanzhong, and is heavily guarded in the Ziwu Valley. If you want to go to Guanzhong, you must pass through the Ziwu Valley; to the west are the rolling mountains, which are difficult to reach.
Walking; to the south is Chengdu, the base camp of Yizhou, and it is impossible to leave.
Therefore, as long as Tian Feng goes to Baocheng to take up his post, he will be under Wang Can's control. Wang Can is of course relieved.
After Tian Feng left, Wang Can's heart dropped.
At this time, the only ones attacking Yizhou were the armies of Yuan Shu, Lu Bu and Liu Bei outside Shangyong City.
Shangyong City is located at the border of Jingzhou and Yizhou, with rolling mountains to the north. Because Wuguan was controlled by Wang Can, the connection between the north and the south was cut off, so the news could not be transmitted temporarily.
Liu Bei, Lu Bu and Yuan Shu wanted to get news, and the only way was to send news from their own jurisdictions.
However, the jurisdiction of the three people is too far away from the north, so it is impossible to get the news directly.
In this way, we have to wait for Cao Cao to return with his troops, and the news of the withdrawal spreads from Yanzhou, so that the officials in the three jurisdictions can get the news, and then pass the news through the soldiers in their respective jurisdictions. In this way, it will take a long time.
It takes time to get the news, so Yuan Shu and others don't know the situation in the north yet.
In the county hall, Wang Can summoned his civil servants and generals.
Xu Shu, Lu Meng, and Gan Ning sat on the left side of the hall, and Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, and Pang De sat on the right side of the hall.
Pound's family had already moved to Chengdu and lived in Chengdu.
Although Pang De had some complaints about Wang Can's arrogant behavior, it was a done deal. He was already a general under Wang Can's command, so he could only serve Wang Can. As for Zhang Liao, he was left by Lu Bu to stop Wang Can's army, and he was already loyal to Lu Bu.
Now Zhang Liao has surrendered to Wang Can and is a general under Wang Can's command.
Wang Can glanced at everyone and said: "There is news from the north that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have withdrawn their troops and returned to their own jurisdiction. The situation in the north has stabilized. We can also use our best to deal with Yuan Shu and others' army at once.
."
After the words fell, Pang De and others were excited.
Wang Can is going to attack Shangyong City again, which means that he will use weapons in a big way.
The last time we were in Shangyong City, we focused on defense. The only time we sent out troops was to attract Lu Bu and Yuan Shu to advance, and there was no real fight. This time Wang Can will defeat the armies of Yuan Shu, Lu Bu and Liu Bei, which is their chance.
.Everyone was gearing up, but Zhang Liao was expressionless and his eyes were a little uncertain.
Seeing this, Wang Can understood Zhang Liao's thoughts.
Just like when Pang De and Gao Shun surrendered to him, neither of them wanted to fight with the forces they were originally loyal to. Although Lu Bu gave up on Zhang Liao and regarded Zhang Liao as an abandoned son, Zhang Liao was unwilling to face Lu Bu or fight with Lu Bu on the battlefield.
Swordsmen are facing each other, that's why he has such an expression.
Wang Can ordered: "Wenyuan, you don't need to participate in this battle, stay in Hanzhong."
"promise!"
When Zhang Liao heard this, he immediately agreed.
He looked at Wang Can gratefully and smiled happily. Zhang Liao was deeply touched that Wang Can could think of him. After all, he had a lord who cared about his subordinates, and he had chosen a suitable lord.
Lu Meng cupped his fists and said, "My lord, you agreed to let the last general serve as the vanguard, but you have to keep it in mind!"
Wang Can smiled and said: "Okay, you will be the vanguard and lead the vanguard to Shangyong City."
"Thank you, lord!"
Lu Meng responded with clasped fists, a cheerful smile on his face.
Wang Can nodded and said, "The rest of you, follow me and send troops to Shangyong City."
"promise!"
Xu Shu and others answered with clasped fists and agreed.
…
Outside Shangyong City, the armies of Lu Bu, Yuan Shu and Liu Bei were combined and stationed in the camp. However, the three forces were not mixed together and were clearly distinct from each other. Among the armies, Liu Bei's army was the main force. He came from Runan
They brought more than 20,000 soldiers here, plus the troops that Yuan Shu and Lu Bu continued to gather, there were about 30,000 people.
An army of 30,000 is quite a powerful force.
Historically, when Liu Bei and Sun Quan allied to resist Cao Cao, the two sides fought in Chibi. Liu Bei's troops only had more than 20,000 soldiers. Now, there are more than 30,000 soldiers just stationed outside Shangyong City. Their strength is not weak.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, Yuan Shu sat in the main seat.
Below, Lu Bu and Chen Gong sit on the left, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei sit on the right.
Yuan Shu looked at Liu Bei and said: "Brother Xuande, we have been stationing troops outside Shangyong City for more than five days. Why don't we attack Shangyong City and continue to stagnate?"
According to Yuan Shu's idea, Liu Bei's army should be allowed to attack Shangyong City.
After all, this team is dominated by Liu Bei's army. Even if the army is crippled, Liu Bei will be the hardest hit.
Liu Bei's heart was as bright as a mirror, and of course he would not let Yuan Shu succeed. The purpose of his trip was not to conquer Shangyong City, but to use Wang Can's sword to kill Lu Bu and conquer Chen Gong. The troops in Shangyong City are not strong now.
, and the defenders of Shangyong City could not get out. Liu Bei had no way to borrow a sword to kill people, and it was impossible for him to agree to Yuan Shu sending troops.
If Lu Bu can be killed, Liu Bei will definitely be willing to send troops.
The military power is in the hands of Liu Bei. He sends troops as soon as he asks. Yuan Shu and Lu Bu can only act in a hurry.
Liu Bei looked at Yuan Shu and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, after our armies gathered together, they also went to fight outside the city, but the defenders of Shangyong City could not get out, so there was nothing we could do. Alas, I finally got it.
Runan, I only have these few soldiers under my command. If I can't capture Shangyong City by force, wouldn't my army die in vain? Once all the soldiers are used up, Yuzhou will be in chaos!"
After a pause, Liu Bei said again: "To take Shangyong City, try to outwit it, rather than attack by force!"
Liu Bei's words were the final word.
Lu Bu said: "Xuande, the defenders of Shangyong City cannot get out, and we have no other way. Now there is no other way but to attack Shangyong City by force. If you want to outwit Shangyong City, you must have a strategy to implement it."
ah!"
Liu Bei looked at Chen Gong and said: "How to lure the enemy, please Mr. Chen to think of a way."
One sentence brought the topic to Chen Gong again.
Chen Gong spread his hands and said helplessly: "Although the guard of Shangyong City is young, he has mastered the essence of military art. Gong can't think of any way at the moment." Chen Gong expressed his thoughts, making the atmosphere tense.
There was no way to outsmart him, and Liu Bei was unwilling to attack by force, so the meeting could not continue discussing at all.
Yuan Shu sighed and looked at Liu Bei again, with a helpless look in his eyes.
Lu Bu stared at Liu Bei, who was sitting upright, with a stern look in his eyes.
Ps: The fourth update is completed, it’s time to call it a day and take a break.
