Chapter 162: Liu Zhang is a little flustered
"Lord, Wu Shun just occupied Hanzhong. Taking advantage of his unstable foothold, it is a great opportunity to send troops to attack and unify the entire Yizhou!"
Hanzhong is the gateway to Xichuan, so it was fine if Zhang Lu used to occupy it. Zhang Lu was useless and only knew how to tinker with the Five Doks of Rice Sect. It was not a threat to Xichuan.
Now that Wu Shun is coming, the generals in Shu have already smelled the breath of iron and blood. Zhang Ren first advised Liu Zhang and proposed to attack Hanzhong, which is in chaos.
If Wu Shun can be driven away, the entire Yizhou area will be returned to Liu Zhang. There are only benefits, no harm!
The dangerous passes of Xichuan are all in the hands of the Sichuan army. You can attack and retreat or defend! There is no need to worry about Wu Shun's counterattack.
"Lord, even if you don't send troops to Hanzhong, you should add troops from Yangping Pass, Jianjia Pass, Baishui Pass, Jiange and other passes to prevent the Wuling Army!"
The general of the Sichuan Army, Wu Ban, was brave and resourceful. He could see Liu Zhang's struggles. So he settled for the second best. First, ensure the territory of Xichuan. As long as these passes are firmly guarded, no matter how powerful the Wuling Army is, it is impossible for him to fly over.
"What do you think about Koji?"
Regarding the opinions of these generals, Liu Zhang even wanted to know the opinions of a certain master Fazheng and Zhang Song.
"Lord, the Wuling Army has just finished fighting with Zhang Lu, and is not able to start a war with our Xichuan for the time being. The north is almost in my hands, so there is no need to worry. The threat from Hanzhong is not great. Instead, Meng Huo, the southern barbarian, repeatedly crossed the border and violated our prefectures and counties, and must be severely punished!"
Wu Shun took Hanzhong like lightning, allowing Fa Zheng to see hope. He felt that only by following Wu Shun could he have a day when he would be famous in history.
Regarding Liu Zhang's inquiry, he tried his best to exaggerate the threat from the Southern Barbarians to divert Xichuan's attention from Wu Shun.
According to the information from the Black-Clothed Guard, the Wuling Army suffered almost no losses in the battle of Hanzhong. It only takes some time to repair and stabilize the situation in Hanzhong. It doesn’t take too long to go south to capture Xichuan.
"Lord, my subordinates agree with Xiaozhi's view!"
Liu Zhang was about to ask Zhang Song, but unexpectedly got such an answer.
The generals advocated the confrontation with Wu Shun in Hanzhong, but the strategists advocated targeting Meng Huo in the south. If the fight starts, the south and the north will be two battlefields, which makes Liu Zhang have a headache.
The disasters of the Southern Barbarians have always existed, because of the steep mountains and difficult roads, and Liu Zhang has never had any good way to curb Meng Huo.
But Liu Zhang still knew something about Wu Shun. This man himself was quite strategic and had many powerful generals under his command. He was a powerful person. If he captured Hanzhong, he must have fallen in love with his Xichuan.
Although Liu Zhang was not enterprising, who would not be angry if his things were coveted? Liu Zhang knew that Wu Shun was attacking Hanzhong, so he wanted to send troops to attack Wu Shun. Unfortunately, Fa Zheng and Zhang Song persuaded him.
The reason for these two people to persuade Liu Zhang was very sufficient. It was said that Wu Shun was rushing to attack for a long distance, so he would definitely choose to fight and decide quickly, while Zhang Lu would definitely choose to stick to it. They suggested that Liu Zhang wait and see if Wu Shun and Zhang Lu fought hard, and the army would go north to Jianjia Pass and wipe out Wu Shun and Zhang Lu.
This is the mantis stalking the cicada, and the oriole is behind!
Unfortunately, Wu Shun's movements were so fast that Liu Zhang didn't react. Zhang Lu threw Hanzhong away. That was Liu Zhang's father's territory, and it was now occupied by Wu Shun. To be honest, Liu Zhang was a little panicked.
"Increase troops and send them to the northern passes, these passes cannot be missed! Which general is willing to go to the north of the Governor of Jiange?"
After this period of pacification and suppression, the situation in Hanzhong has basically been pacified. The Wuling Army has also been repaired. Only Wei Yan trains cavalry every day.
Wei Yan cherishes the opportunity to lead the army alone very much. Therefore, he wants to repay Wu Shun with his military achievements. Cavalry is the king of troops in the cold weapon era, with a strong impact and huge lethality. Whether it is frontal impact or roundabout combat, cavalry is the best choice!
The soldiers of the Qinglong Camp who had just surrendered had completely returned to their hearts after receiving the same treatment as the soldiers of the Wuling Army. After the Wuling Army soldiers continued to instill the benefits and benefits of the Wuling Army, the surrendered soldiers wanted to attack Xichuan immediately, so that they could earn some military merits and get promoted and make money!
Among the surrendered soldiers, some people who had a grudge against the Wuling Army wanted to incite Yang Song to rebel. However, after repeated consideration, Yang Song personally killed those who incited him and then apologized to Wu Shun.
For the sake of Hanzhong's stability, Wu Shun did not blame Yang Song, but asked him to continue to all the Hanzhong Legion.
Wu Shun didn't say anything, but Yang Song himself carried out a round of cleaning in the legion.
Once a person feels that he is trusted, he will be willing to do a lot of things for the trust of him.
