"Cao Zhang, a yellow-mouthed boy, is nothing to worry about.

The lord can have Xiang Tiao stationed in Luocheng, echoing his uncle Zhiyuan. Cao Zhang is young and energetic, and if he can't attack for a long time, he will be discouraged and retreat. However, Cao Peng is the lord's innermost trouble. This man is cunning and full of scheming. Although he is far away from the northwest

It took two years, but his prestige in Liangzhou is truly unmatched by anyone.

Shi Tao, the governor of Hanzhong, came to Shuijing Villa with Liang.

Although this man is not good at military affairs, he should not be underestimated... He has been operating in Hanzhong for two years and has a very deep foundation. After Cao Cao occupied Hanzhong, although he stopped fighting, he has been making preparations to capture Xichuan.

Now Cao's army is in Xichuan and has plenty of food and grass.

There are nearly one million hu of dendrobium stored in Micangshan, which is enough to support an army of 100,000 men without having to worry about food and pay for two years.

If Cao Peng arrives, he will definitely attack with all his strength. By then, although Jiameng Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it will probably be difficult to resist. Liang is determined to go to Jiameng Pass and deny Cao Peng outside the pass. The Lord should stabilize the situation as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the more time it takes.

, Cao's army must be weak... Sun Quan will never sit idly by and will definitely send troops to help.

In this way, Cao's army will retreat, and the lord will be able to secure Chengdu and then slowly plan for it."

Zhuge Liang's plan was exactly what Liu Bei wanted.

Although Xichuan has been in chaos over the years, it still left a lot of wealth for Liu Bei. The Chengdu Treasury stored hundreds of thousands of dendrobium. At that time, Zhang Ren and others hurriedly withdrew and did not completely destroy it, which gave Liu Bei an advantage.

And Xichuan, known as the land of abundance, is rich in products and has sufficient food and grass.

Even if Zhang Ren burned the warehouses west of Fushui, it would be impossible to destroy them all. People like Huang Quan, Liu Ba, and Zheng Du were indeed influential, but Wu Yi and others also had their own teams, leaving a rich legacy for Liu Bei.

Wealth. In a short period of time, Liu Bei did not need to worry about food, grass and other supplies.

The first thing he has to do is to stabilize the situation.

As long as the situation stabilizes, there will be room for maneuver...

However, Liu Bei still had some concerns about Zhuge Liang going to Jiameng Pass to supervise the battle.

"The military advisor is going to Jiameng Pass. I don't object.

But if an accident happens, who should I discuss it with?"

Zhuge Liang thought for a while, smiled slightly and said: "This is the perfect time for the Lord to care for the scholars of Xichuan.

You can ask Fei Guan for internal affairs, and Wu Yi for foreign affairs.

If there is any doubt, you can send people to Jiameng Pass... As for Chengdu, the three generals can take over, and Liang only needs to lead Meng Huo, Yang Feng and others."

As for Zhuge Liang, he had never been convinced by Cao Peng.

In Zhuge Liang's opinion, the several major defeats were due to Cao Peng being too strong rather than Cao Peng's superior strategy.

In his heart, Zhuge Liang had always hoped to fight Cao Peng.

Now that the opportunity has come, Zhuge Liang will not let it go. After discussing with Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang led his troops and rushed to Jiameng Pass.

At this time, Cao Pengfang arrived in Lintao and was preparing to march into Hanzhong.

Cao Peng's trip was indeed a grand war.

Except for Pang Tong, Xiang Chong and Ma Su who stayed behind in Zhuojun, the rest of the Duhufu went with Cao Peng.

In addition, Cao Peng also transferred Huang Zhong from Hexi County.

At his suggestion, Wu Ban was appointed as the governor of Hexi County. In comparison, there was still a big gap between Wu Ban and his predecessors. In terms of ability and prestige, Wu Ban was not enough to take on the post of governor of Hexi.

But Wu Ban has an advantage that no one can match.

He was an old retainer of the Cao family. As early as the beginning of Jian'an, he had surrendered to Deng Ji. He followed Deng Ji to the north and south of the river, from Haixi to Bingzhou. In the blink of an eye, it had been more than fifteen years.

His loyalty is unparalleled by others. He has always followed Deng Ji in obscurity. Although his reputation is not obvious, he is highly valued.

This time there was a vacancy in Hexi County, so Deng Ji recommended Wu Ban.

Cao Peng also had a very good impression of Wu Ban, so he agreed...

After Wu Ban arrived in Hexi, he did not need to have outstanding abilities. Bu Zhao, Pang Tong and Huang Zhong had already laid a solid foundation for him. Hexi County is not as difficult and dangerous as it was at the beginning. It only requires Xiao Gui and Cao to follow.

, you can sit firmly in your seat. Besides, there is still Zhuge Jun in charge of daily affairs in Hexi County. So after Wu Ban arrives in Hexi County, he really won't be under too much pressure.

Cao Peng rested in Yedu for a month and transferred Huang Zhong and Han De to join him.

He ordered three thousand elite soldiers, still under the command of Zhao Yun. After settling down his family members, he led Fazheng Guo Huai, Deng Aisun Shao, Xu Gai, Zhang Hu and others in a mighty and mighty manner, and arrived at Lintao.

As soon as they arrived in Lintao, they received news that Zhuge Liang had taken over the defense of Jiameng Pass.
