Chapter 1030 Withdrawal of Xichuan Zhong

"Your Majesty, our army was in chaos just now, and the drums were ringing everywhere. General Ma didn't hear you for help for a while. How can it be blamed? What's more, I am now an ally with Uncle Liu. General Ma is his general. In the past, he repeatedly saved you from danger, and the slave family was saved by him, so he had to save his life. General Ma and I are very kind. How can you treat each other like this!? Moreover, where does the matter of seizing the throne start!?

Meng Huo listened, and his face was so dark that it was about to drip water. Now he has no real evidence to prove that Mrs. Zhu Rong has an adulterous relationship with Ma Chao. If he says it at this time, how will Mrs. Zhu Rong admit it? At that time, Mrs. Zhu Rong could not bear the humiliation and turned against him. With the prestige of the Zhu Rong tribe in the southern barbarians, the southern barbarians would inevitably be divided, but it was putting the cart before the horse. Meng Huo's brain turned around, suppressed his anger, and snorted coldly, but he didn't answer. He turned around and left. Seeing this, Mrs. Zhu Rong was so angry that she shouted loudly, but Meng Huo ignored it.

This matter came to an end. Meng Huo was ambushed, and he was thinking about how to deal with Mrs. Zhu Rong and Ma Chao, the adulterous husband and wife. How was he in the mood to chase the soldiers and horses in the northwest again? That night, Meng Huo finished his army and led his army back to Zitong City.

It is said that Zhao Yun saw Meng Huo withdrawing, so he led the troops to the army and reported to Wen Han. Wen Han heard that Ma Chao couldn't save Meng Huo. He couldn't help but doubt and asked Li You. Li You pondered for a while and grinned.

"Haha. It's a good way to kill people with a knife. Presumably, this must be taught by Huang Gongheng. After our army withdrew, Meng Huo was bound to ask the big-eared thief for Brazil. Huang Gongheng prepared for the rain and wanted to kill Meng Huo with the help of General Zhao. If so, the barbarian army will be in chaos. At that time, the big-eared thief will have the opportunity to break the barbarian army and take the opportunity to recover Zitong. Humph. This Huang Gongheng is really insidious. Fortunately, General Zhao stopped in time, otherwise it would be cheaper!!"

Wen Han was also shocked when he heard this. He was about to have a fierce battle between Liu Bei and Meng Huo, so that he could have the opportunity to take advantage of it. If Zhao Yun killed Meng Huo, Liu Bei would not be able to recover Zitong, stabilize Yizhou, and build a foundation to compete for the world. Wen Han's face turned hard, and now he repeatedly praised Zhao Yun for being cautious and careful.

At the same time, in Yulong City. Guan Yu received a letter from Wen Han and hurriedly opened it to watch it. However, he saw that in Wen Han's letter, he actually wanted to withdraw from Brazil with Xu Huang and join his soldiers and horses in the Qimengguan, thus ending the Xichuan war. Guan Yu's eyebrows were deep and his face was deep. When Xu Huang saw it, he knew that there must be a big deal in the letter, so he asked Guan Yu. Guan Yu sighed unwillingly and handed the letter to Xu Huang. Xu Huang looked at it with faith, and his face changed continuously. After ponding for a while, he said to Guan Yu angrily.

"Listen to what the third brother said in the letter, most of the big-eared thieves are allied with the southern barbarians. What a false benevolence and false traitor. For his own self-interest, he is actually a traitor with a foreign race. It really makes me angry!!!"

Hearing this, Guan Yu snorted coldly, and Danfeng's eyes burst into a burst of murderous spirit. Although Guan Yu is proud, he has always been obedient to Wen Han's words. At the moment, there is a saying in Wen Han's letter that most of the sergeants are homesick and disgusted, so they don't want to fight for a long time, so they will withdraw for the time being. When Nanman and Liu Bei are the two counties of Zitong and Brazil, they will tear their faces, and then plan the afterth of the story. Guan Yu thought that it was also reasonable, so he quickly ordered Xu Huang, ordered the troops to rest for a night, pack up, and immediately withdraw to the dragonfly gate tomorrow. Xu Huang took the order and ordered the troops.

Nothing happened overnight. The next morning, the 30,000 troops in the northwest withdrew from Yulong City, hoping to leave. Liu Jun explored carefully, and the soldiers and horses in the northwest withdrew, did not stop overnight, and rushed back to Guanzhong to return. Hearing this, Liu Bei led the army to withdraw. He was overjoyed and quickly called Zhuge Liang to see him. When he was young, Zhuge Liang entered the hall and worshipped. Liu Bei said the information, and Zhuge Liang listened and said with a smile.

"When Guan Yunchang retreated, the Brazilian county became the master's bag. The lord does not need to be in a hurry, and march slowly to stabilize Brazil first.

Liu Bei listened, frowned, and asked doubtfully.

"The army withdrew, and the spirit was blunt. Why don't you send an army to pursue it?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head gently.

"It's not necessary. Wen Butfan ordered Guan Yunchang to withdraw to Zitong, which was self-destruction. The barbaric army is strong, with 100,000 soldiers and horses. In the near future, there will be a fierce battle in Zitong City. Although the Northwest Army is famous for its elite, it has continued to fight in Sichuan in recent years. Presumably all the soldiers under its command are homesick and tired of war. Wait, as long as our army marches from Brazil, echoes with the barbarian army, and attacks back and forth, how can Zitong be broken? However, as soon as Zitong was broken, the northwest army was defeated. Meng Huo, the barbarian king, must ask the lord for the two counties of Brazil and Zitong. These two counties are my imperial territory of the Han Dynasty. The previous cession is just a stopgap measure. At that time, there will be a fierce battle between our army and the barbarians. The so-called quail and clams compete with each other to make profits. In this case, why don't the lord first let the Northwest Army fight against the barbarians for a long time, wait for both of them to be injured, wait for leisure, first work together with the Barbarians to break through the Northwest Army, and then drive away the barbarians?

Hearing this, Liu Bei's face changed slightly, and he thought of a letter from Huang Quan not long ago. Yan Ma Chao once saved Mrs. Zhu Rong in the chaotic army. Mrs. Zhu Rong had great prestige in the south. Meng Huo was able to ascend the throne in the past, so the women complemented each other. And Mrs. Zhu Rong seems to be emotional about this beautiful man. Huang Quan thought that he could make use of it, so he taught Ma Chao to secretly communicate with him. The meaning of Huang Quan's letter is self-evident. After reading it, Liu Bei felt that there was a feasible reason for this beauty plan, so he sent a message to teach Ma Chao to act according to the plan.

Liu Bei has never told Zhuge Liang about this matter, all because Liu Bei knew that Zhuge Liang acted openly and righteously, and he had always disdained such insidious tricks. He was afraid that after knowing it, it would damage his benevolence and righteous image and he was unhappy. When Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei suddenly fell down, he couldn't help frowning and asked Liu Bei.

"The lord seems to have some concerns. Do you think it's impossible to make a bright plan?"

Liu Bei suddenly came to his senses, laughed, and quickly covered up and said.

"Hahahaha. Kong Mingzhi beats demons. This plan is very good. How can it be unreasonable?

Seeing this, Zhuge Liang's heart tightened and felt that there was something wrong, but he didn't realize what was wrong for a moment. When Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang looking closely, he quickly ordered Tai Zhangfei, Tai Shici, Hua Xiong and other generals. A few days ago, Zhang Fei took the road to the west city and rushed to Sichuan. Soon, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Hua Xiong and other generals entered the palace one after another. Liu Bei quickly ordered the three of them to lead a soldier and horse each to seize the rest of the cities and counties of Brazil and pactate Brazil. The three generals took the order and set off on the same day.

Five or six days later, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici and Hua Xiong came with good news one after another. At this time, Brazil, except for a few small cities, almost all of them fell into the hands of Liu Bei. At this moment, a soldier came to report in a hurry.

"Report!! Wen Bofan withdrew Zitong's soldiers and horses to the Zaimeng Pass half a month ago, and nearly 100,000 people accompanied him, and most of them sent Zitong's money to the grain. Meng Huo, the barbarian king, took Zitong City with no effort, but only got an empty city.

Zhuge Liang listened to the words, his face changed slightly, meditated for a while, and then sighed. Hearing this, Liu Bei's face changed dramatically, and he hurriedly asked.

"How could this extraordinary suddenly withdraw Zitong? He tried his best to lose so many troops before he seized Zitong. How could he give up!!? Could it be that all the changes in Hedong forced him to withdraw?

When Zhuge Liang heard the words, his face was slightly stunned, and he said secretly in his heart.

"Is it true that Mr. Cao, the thief really listens to me and sent troops to fight against Hedong!"

Zhuge Liang thought about it and didn't dare to be sure. He asked the soldiers that Zitong had a vision recently.

When the soldier heard this, he suddenly reported that a few months ago, Wen Han held a banquet in the city and promised the sergeant that he would end the war and return to the northwest in the near future. Liu Bei also learned about this matter, but he thought it was a fraud, so he didn't pay attention to it. Zhuge Liang didn't know about this. After hearing this, he seemed to think about it and praised it.

"It seems that Wen Bufan also noticed that his soldiers and horses have been fighting for a long time, and they are all homesick and tired of war. This person can be considerate to the sergeant, and it should be broken. This time, Zitong is abandoned, and Brazil is more like a strong man with a broken arm. In this way, this person does not hesitate to be the king of a generation!"

Liu Bei listened, his face was calm, and he hurriedly asked.

"If so. Now Meng Huo is in Zitong, with 100,000 soldiers. If our army wants to take back Zitong, it will undoubtedly be difficult to reach the sky. According to Kong Ming's opinion, what should he do?

Zhuge Liang frowned, gently shook the goose feather fan, and said without panic.

"Master, you don't have to worry too much. The barbarians and thieves only have the spirit of blood and courage. Why do they all need to be resourceless!? Now wait for the extraordinary class teacher to come back, and I will make a plan later.

Liu Bei saw that Zhuge Liang looked confident, but he hoped to calm down Yizhou and stabilize the situation as soon as possible. Liu Bei's brain turned around and suddenly thought of a plan. Then Liu Bei discussed with Zhuge Liang for a while. When Zhuge Liang retreated, Liu Bei immediately wrote a letter and called a general to pass it to Zitong.

Let's say that not long after Wen Han withdrew to the Weimeng Pass, Guan Yu and Xu Huang arrived with 30,000 soldiers and horses a few days later. When Wen Han heard that the brothers Guan Yu and Xu Huang came, he was overjoyed and quickly led the generals out of the customs to welcome them. Wen Han looked at it from afar. Where the wind and dust rose, Guan Yu and Xu Huang's familiar majestic and heroic posture hurriedly drove the horse to meet him. When Guan Yu and Xu Huang saw that it was Wen Han, they quickly got off the horse to greet each other. After that, the soldiers also disoed one after another and worshipped one after another. The three brothers and three brothers get together in front of Guan, and naturally they have to show their feelings. Subsequently, Wen Han led everyone into the customs and held a banquet to reward the troops. After several rounds of drinking, Guan Yu got drunk and suddenly asked.

"The third brother originally won Zitong and Brazil to establish a foundation in Yizhou. In less than a few years, he can seize the land and become the foundation of the emperor. Why do you waste it halfway and waste so much soldiers, horses and huge grain!!"

Guan Yu came to Sichuan for the first time. He didn't know that the sergeant had been fighting for a long time and worked hard to miss his hometown. When the generals at the banquet heard this, they all looked guilty. Xu Shu, who was in the banquet, heard Guan Yu's question, shook his head slightly and sighed. Wen Han, who was sitting in the high hall, listened to the words, and his face darkened, and he said slowly.

"The second brother doesn't know that our soldiers have been fighting in this Sichuan for nearly several years, and they are all looking forward to returning home. What's more, there are repeated fierce battles and soldiers are working hard. In addition, the barbarians are powerful and come with hatred. Zhuge Kongming hid the sky and crossed the sea and led troops into the river. The big-eared thief fought against the barbarian alliance. If I insist on it, I will definitely lose, so I will withdraw it.
