"The Taoist Master...has left."

For some reason, Yang Ling felt a little melancholy.

Finally, Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly. You are both a gift and a calamity!

Mmm, so wet, so wet!

Yang Ling coughed lightly and asked,

"Did you just say that there was news from Chang'an?"

"good."

Zhao Yun came back to his senses and immediately said,

"General Wenyuan sent a messenger back, saying that Liu Bei has raised troops and is attacking Hanzhong!"

After supporting Cao Zhi to ascend the throne as emperor, in order to stabilize the local situation, Yang Ling also sent Zhang Liao, Guan Yu and others to Youzhou, Silizhou, Yangzhou and other places respectively to serve as generals of the Four Expeditions.

Zhang Liao was the general who conquered the west, and was in charge of the affairs of Liangzhou and Silizhou, and was responsible for taking charge of Chang'an.

Yang Ling took the letter from Zhao Yun, read it carefully, and couldn't help but sneer.

"This Liu Bei really knows how to seize opportunities!"

After defecting to Liu Zhang, Liu Bei successfully captured Yizhou with the help of Fazheng and others, just like in history.

Hearing that Cao Wei had changed, Liu Bei chose to send troops to Hanzhong without hesitation, intending to counterattack Cao Wei!

"Brother, how should we deal with it?"

Zhao Yun asked.

Yang Ling pondered for a moment and then ordered,

"Go to the emperor immediately and ask him to issue an order to attack Liu Bei."

"After we move the capital to Luoyang, we will immediately move westward!"

At the time of Cao Pi, Cao Wei intended to move its capital.

After all, Xudu is too small, and its geographical environment is far inferior to Luoyang.

Before Cao Pi was deposed, Luoyang City had been completely renovated and was waiting for Cao Pi to move the capital.

Yang Ling also agreed with the move of the capital to Luoyang.

As long as we move there, we can weaken the powerful nobles who attack the surrounding areas of Xudu. Why not do it?

"Little brother, take the order!"

Zhao Yun clasped his fists and immediately turned around and left without hesitation.

…

Yizhou.

Berkshire.

Liu Bei stood on the hillside, looking at the mighty troops and horses at his feet, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

Just a few months ago, after some discussions with Fazheng and others, Zhuge Liang deliberately sent someone to inform Liu Zhang that Liu Bei was planning to rebel.

Liu Zhang was indeed gullible and immediately sent troops to capture Liu Bei.

Under Zhuge Liang's persuasion, Liu Bei had no choice but to launch an army to resist.

Fortunately, Fazheng and others had already arranged everything, and with the help of internal and external cooperation, Liu Bei successfully attacked Chengdu!

Seeing that the situation was over, Liu Zhang reluctantly chose to surrender.

Various factions in Yizhou were originally quite dissatisfied with Liu Zhang.

In addition, Liu Bei was assisted by Zhuge Liang, who used various means to divide and win over.

In the end, nothing happened, and Liu Bei successfully replaced Liu Zhang and became the shepherd of Yizhou.

After several months of steady development, the situation in Yizhou has stabilized.

At this time, Liu Bei also received news that Yang Ling had been imprisoned by Cao Pi, and that Cao Wei was in turmoil.

So he, Zhuge Liang and others planned to take advantage of this opportunity to use troops against Hanzhong!

Hanzhong has a dangerous terrain and is actually a place for military strategists.

If it can be swallowed, it will not only greatly enhance Liu Bei's strength, but also allow him to go north to plot Guanzhong and go east to attack Jingzhou!

Liu Bei quickly gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses, with Zhuge Liang stationed at the rear, while he led Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Deng Zhi, Ma Di and others to attack Hanzhong.

"Mr. Takanao, I wonder if Mr. Xianhe has set off?"

Liu Bei asked with a smile.

"Reporting to my lord, Mr. Xianhe has already gone."

Fa Zheng Gongshou Dao.

Although he was ready for war, Liu Bei still hoped to persuade Zhang Lu to surrender if possible.

So he sent

"That's good!"

Liu Bei nodded.

"It's best if Zhang Lu agrees. If he doesn't agree, I will definitely poke 10,000 transparent holes in him when Hanzhong is captured!"

Zhang Fei snorted angrily.

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

At this moment.

Hanzhong City.

Zhang Lu, who was wearing Taoist robes, looked at Jian Yong in front of him expressionlessly.

"What do you mean, if I don't surrender, Liu Bei will attack me?"

"Master, what you said is wrong. My lord has always been kind-hearted and does not want to start a war rashly. I hope Master will think again."

Jian Yong said with a smile.

"What a kind-hearted person who doesn't want to start a fight!"

Zhang Lu, who was the teacher of Five Pecks of Rice, suddenly sneered,

"Even Liu Zhang couldn't conquer Hanzhong. Who does Liu Bei think he dares to threaten me?"

"The two armies are fighting. If you don't kill the envoy, I will spare your life today!"

"Go back and tell Liu Bei that if he dares to invade Hanzhong, I will make sure he never comes back!"

Although Zhang Lu only had one county in Hanzhong, you must know that he governed the place according to Taoism.

Almost all the people in Hanzhong are members of the Five Dou Rice Sect, and they can be said to be of the same mind.

In addition, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, wars and wars continued, and many people fled to Hanzhong for refuge.

For example, when Han Sui and Ma Teng fought with Cao Cao, tens of thousands of people fled to Hanzhong.

Even though Hanzhong is a small place, it has a large population.

This is why Zhang Lu had the confidence to stir up trouble with Liu Bei!

Seeing Zhang Lu's tough attitude, the smile on Jian Yong's face froze.

Before he could speak any more, Zhang Lu ordered people to drive him out.

After Jian Yong left, Zhang Lu's expression darkened.

"Someone is coming!"

"Master, please give me your instructions!"

Counselor Yan Pu, generals Yang Song, Yang Bai, Yang Ang and others responded in unison.

"Order your troops and horses immediately and follow me to Yangping Pass."

Zhang Lu ordered in a deep voice.

"We take the order!"

As soon as he gave the order, everyone took action immediately.

In just half a day, a large number of soldiers and horses went to support Yangping Pass.

…

The army led by Liu Bei had just marched ten miles away from Yangping Pass when they encountered Jian Yong who had returned.

Looking at Jian Yong with a bruised nose and swollen face, Liu Bei was shocked and said quickly,

"Mr. Xianhe, you...what's wrong with you?"
