As Fazheng offered advice, Liu Bei chose to adopt it without hesitation.

It was decided that the entire army should first concentrate its forces and go north to deal with the Liu and Zhang coalition forces.

After all, Xiliang Jinmason is well-known and this person should not be underestimated!

Moreover, Jiameng Pass is currently still the base camp of our army in Yizhou, so there is no room for loss here!

Liu Bei naturally attached great importance to this.

After serious thought, even though the Luocheng defenders had lost the possibility of counterattack, he still appointed veteran general Huang Zhong to personally lead an army to stay here and continue to guard against Luocheng.

To avoid any mistakes.

The overall situation has not yet been decided. As the saying goes, there is no big mistake in being careful, so all the generals will naturally accept the order happily.

Wait for the generals to retreat one by one and go forward to prepare.

Counselor Fa Zheng deliberately walked at the back of the crowd, waiting until there was no one else in the tent before turning back again.

Seeing this, Liu Bei seemed to have already been in tune with Fa Zheng. He raised his head and said, "Xiao Zhi seems to have some clever strategies for defeating the enemy that he hasn't revealed yet, right?"

"My lord is wise!"

Hearing this, Fazheng bowed his hands and complimented him, then slowly sat down and said bluntly: "My lord, when Li Zhengfang and others surrendered to the city that day, Zheng had a vague feeling of foreboding in his heart."

"But I didn't expect that Shi Yuan and Vice Commander Zhao also guessed that Liu and Zhang would rebuild the alliance."

After a while, the words fell.

Fazheng pondered for a while and then said again: "Lord, although everything seems to be going well at the moment, once the main force of our army goes north to Jiameng to resist the coalition offensive."

"Then our army will be in a situation of being attacked from both sides."

"I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I hope that my lord will urgently issue an order to Jingzhou and recruit some troops to Sichuan again, in order to open the Yizhou defense line from the east."

At this point, Fa Zhong's expression became more and more cheerful, and he said: "Currently, the Yizhou Army has been basically locked up here by our army. If Zhuge Military Advisor is ordered to lead an army into Sichuan, it will be overwhelming and they will take Chengdu!

"

"At that time, when our army has defeated Liu and Zhang's coalition forces, Liu Zhang will naturally be gone, and the lord will definitely own the entire territory of Yizhou."

The words of Jiji fell one after another, and almost every word of Fazheng was full of temptation to Liu Bei's heart. Looking at his current expression, it seemed that he was already salivating!

Desperately wanting to take over Yizhou is certainly what Liu Bei dreams of!

Recalling that he had been wandering around for decades since he started the army, Longzhong had finally designed such a land of abundance for him as a foundation.

How could Liu Bei not long for it?

After hearing Fazheng's plan, Liu Bei fell into deep thought for a while and did not make a hasty decision.

For him, although he has longed to own Yizhou deep in his heart, Jingzhou's strategic position is still extremely important, and the issue of troop deployment should still be considered extremely carefully.

What he is thinking about now is also the issue of risk.

Is it appropriate to transfer a military force once again to put Jingzhou’s safety in danger?

After pondering for a long time, Liu Bei suddenly became determined and decided to mobilize troops to Sichuan.

Even if there is no Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu in Jingzhou, it won't be a big deal!

After Fa Zheng and Liu Bei reached a consensus on this matter, the troop deployment instructions were secretly sent to Jingzhou on the same day.

Wait until all departments are assembled.

Liu Bei and his generals personally raised the main force and quickly marched north.

As for Luocheng, only Huang Zhong's troops and Pang Tong's troops, who are in charge of the overall situation in Mianzhu, will remain.

This battle will also determine the ownership of Sichuan and Shu.

If they are unable to resist the combined forces of Liu and Zhang, leading to the destruction of Jiameng City, they may not wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Jingzhou, and may fall into defeat in an instant.

Defeating the coalition forces will naturally determine the overall situation.

…

Jiameng closes.

At this time, the Hanzhong army had not yet arrived.

However, more than 10,000 Yizhou troops led by Xiang Cun and Fu Jin had already arrived.

On the city wall, a middle-aged general wearing strong armor and a sharp sword hanging from his waist, with a somewhat stern expression on his face and a tense look in his eyes, was slowly inspecting the front line of the city wall.

This person is also the current Jiameng guard Huo Jun.

After patrolling for a week and seeing no loopholes in the defense, he just raised his head and looked down at the enemy barracks under the pass.

The worried look on his face became more serious.

There are more than ten thousand Yizhou troops under the pass, but he only has a few hundred troops under his command.

This battle is obviously a tough one.

"It is said that the Hanzhong Army is also approaching rapidly under the leadership of Ma Chao, but I don't know how long it will take for the reinforcements to arrive after the Lord receives the military report?"

However, as Huo Jun wanted to think about it, his left hand unconsciously tightened the hilt of the sword, with a hint of determination on his face.

He has already embraced death.

I swear to live and die with Guancheng!

"Woooo..."

After a long time, the sound of a trumpet sounded loudly.

Then I saw groups of Yizhou soldiers forming up to attack Guancheng.

Sword and shield formations, crossbowmen, and siege equipment such as ladder carts, siege engines, and wells all came to attack Guancheng.

only.

Jiameng is originally a dangerous pass dug out between two mountains. The terrain below the pass is dangerous, and the road becomes narrower as it gets closer to the pass.

This also resulted in that each wave of attacks by the siege party could only accommodate more than a few hundred people.

You can only add more people to attack the city in waves.

This also greatly reduces the defensive pressure on the defenders.

Seeing that the enemy had launched an attack, Huo Jun waved his hand to signal his subordinates to prepare for the attack.

However, when he raised his head and observed the enemy's formation, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted loudly and encouraged:

"Soldiers, the enemy army is just a bunch of rabble, don't worry!"

"As long as we work together, we can't defeat Jiameng even if we are outnumbered."

Huo Jun strictly enforces military discipline and lives with his soldiers, so this tribe is still a loyal team that has followed him for many years.

As soon as these words were spoken, the morale of the defenders on the front line of the city wall immediately became high. They were not afraid at all when facing the densely packed figures under the gate!

Because, not only Huo Jun was aware of it, but even ordinary sergeants also noticed the laxity among the Yizhou army.

Even if they organized an attack formation, they couldn't give people a sense of urgency.

The defenders couldn't even feel the slightest oppression after closing the gate.

"Fire arrows to kill the enemy."

However, contempt is contempt, and Huo Jun will not despise the enemy because of this. He stared closely at Guanxia, ​​gauging the distance.

The moment he saw the enemy troops step into shooting range, he issued the order without hesitation.

The order is passed down.

The soldiers on guard did not hesitate, they raised their crossbows and shot arrows downwards.

For a moment, arrows fell from the sky like a rain of arrows.

It fell directly into the Yizhou army formation.

"Ah, ah..."
Chapter completed!
