Chapter 407 Grab the time! Grab the second level!

After dealing with the Yu Ji incident, Yuan Fang's eyes quickly moved to Hanzhong.

In order to force Zhang Wei, who was trapped in Yangping Pass, to surrender, Yuan Fang set out west the next day and approached Yangping Pass along the Mianshui.

When I passed by Cheng County, I had already received news that Nan Zheng had fallen and Zhang Lu surrendered. When facing Yuan Fang's army passed, I was all surrendered in a hurry.

Yuan Fang passed through the counties but did not enter, so he sent people to appease these local officials and took over the key areas. The army rushed straight to Yangping Pass without stopping.

A few days later, the army arrived in Yangping. At this time, the number of Qi troops gathered on the east and west wings of Yangping Pass had reached more than 100,000.

Although Zhang Wei was desperate, he was unwilling to give up, but his will to resist collapsed. Under the threat of Yuan Fang's powerful military force, he had no choice but to choose to turn on and surrender.

Yangping Pass, then defeated.

This first victory in Hanzhong means that Yuan Fang's troops and food and grass can be successfully transported to Hanzhong without having to walk the three rugged valley roads.

Although Yuan Fang has a powerful transportation tool like Muliuqiuliuma, the transportation energy vehicle of Muliuqiuliuma is still much inferior to the ordinary transportation on Chencang Avenue.

That night, Yuan Fang's army entered Yangping Pass and met with the 60,000 troops of Zhuge Liang's troops.

In Guancheng Mansion Hall, Yuan Fang held a big banquet to celebrate the official conquest of Hanzhong.

"A Liang, you fought beautifully in this battle. If you hadn't been successful in the surprise attack on Yangping Pass, Zhang Lu would not have divided Han Sui's troops into western support. How could my main force easily kill Han Sui and seize the Xiegu? This glass of wine will be toasted to you."

Yuan Fang raised his apprentice with no stinginess and gladly raised his glass.

Zhuge Liang smiled and raised his glass and said, "If it weren't for the Master's explanation in advance, how could Liang have thought of going to attack Dingjun Mountain in surprise? When it comes to credit, it should be the Master's."

Yuan Fang laughed and drank with Zhuge Liang for fun.

After drinking for several tours, Zhuge Liang said, "Now Yangping Pass has been brought down, Hanzhong has been obtained by our Great Qi. Master only needs to station troops in Nanzheng. After pacifying the hearts of the people, he can go south and compete with Cao Cao for Yizhou."

Yuan Fang nodded slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Gao Shun hurried in with a serious expression.

"Report to the king. Xichuan carefully wrote the emergency military information that had just been heard. A few days ago, Cao Cao had captured Chengdu and Liu Zhang was destroyed. All the counties in Xichuan were looking forward to the wind to descend to Cao."

Gao Shun's information made the entire lobby quiet in an instant, and all the civil and military officials of the Daqi present expressed surprise.

Yuan Fang's eyebrows slightly condensed, took the information, looked carefully for a while, and sighed, "We are still one step slower."

"Isn't Chengdu known as a strong city? Didn't Liu Zhang still have tens of thousands of soldiers in the city and have enough food and supplies for several years? Why did he break through Cao Cao so quickly?" Ma Chao questioned, very disbelief.

"You can see it yourself." Yuan Fang told everyone the information.

When Ma Chao and other generals saw it, they suddenly realized it.

It turned out that the city of Chengdu was not forcibly captured by Cao Cao, but that Zhang Song, the other leader of Liu Zhang in the city, secretly surrendered to Cao Cao, instigated the soldiers guarding the city to secretly open the city gate and surrender Cao Cao. Only then could Cao Cao's army successfully enter Chengdu.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Liu Zhang had to submit a seal and surrendered to Cao Cao helplessly.

As soon as Chengdu was destroyed, Liu Zhang surrendered, and Mianzhu's general Li Yan, Liu Zhang's general Zhang Ren, and the previously captured veteran Yan Yan and others all surrendered to Cao Cao one after another.

The country of Yizhou Tianfu, which had been run by the Liu family and his son for decades, collapsed and all of them surrendered to Cao.

"Cao Cao has already obtained Yizhou, and our army has newly acquired Hanzhong. People have not attached themselves to it. It seems a bit too hasty to force the south to move south. Master, should I push this plan to move south again?"

Zhuge Gao's proposal seemed to be in line with the way of using troops, and several generals agreed.

Yuan Fang pondered for a moment, but said decisively: "I am a new Hanzhong, and Cao Cao is also a new Xichuan. They are also unattached by people and have not yet established a foothold. What should I be afraid of? This Xichuan, I insist on fighting with him."

Yuan Fang's madness and heroic spirit changed Zhuge Liang's expression, and the generals in the hall were immediately inspired by him to be proud.

Yuan Fang was not just crazy, but had his own judgment.

He was familiar with history and remembered that Cao Cao in history did not take advantage of Liu Bei's foothold and went south to compete for Yizhou, but gave Liu Bei a chance to take advantage of his position in Yizhou. Instead, he went north to attack Hanzhong and killed Cao Cao.

How could Yuan Fang repeat the mistakes of history?

Furthermore, there is another thing that also made Yuan Fang feel a bad premonition, prompting him to speed up the pace of unification of the world.

"The king is right. It is better to use troops to Cao Cao at this time than to wait for him to settle in Yizhou before using troops."

Fa Zheng was the first to stand up and support Yuan Fang's decision.

He jumped up and pointed to the map and said, "Please look, from Hanzhong to take Xichuan, the most important thing is the Jiange and Jiameng Pass. If these two passes are all controlled by Cao Cao, it will be very difficult for our army to go south again."

After a pause, Fa Zheng said confidently: "Although Liu Zhang surrenders now, he may not have time to control Zhucheng north of Chengdu. The generals in these places must be still in a state of uncertainty. For the current plan, the king immediately led the light army south to seize these two passes before Cao Cao's direct troops came to take over. Even if he couldn't grab Jiange, he would at least grab Jiameng Pass."

Jiameng Pass!

Yuan Fangying's eyes condensed, and his eyes were like blades, and suddenly shot towards the map, locking onto the word Jiameng.

"Fa Zheng is right. Even if I only seized Jiameng Pass, I still have a chance to go south. If Cao Cao has occupied two dangerous passes, it will be difficult to go south again..."

Thoughts flew around and pondered for a moment. Yuan Fang slammed the case with a bang and said proudly: "Follow Xiaozhi's plan, I will lead the light army south now to grab the second pass. Cao Cao, I want to see which of us moves faster!"

...

Chengdu City.

In the magnificent prefecture, Cao Cao was enjoying fine wine, embracing beauty, and enjoying everything that originally belonged to Liu Zhang.

"A old thief Liu Yan built his prefecture so magnificently, just like the imperial palace in Luoyang back then. No wonder there was a rumor at that time that Liu Yan wanted to proclaim himself emperor. It seems that this is true...

A sarcastic sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Cao Cao drank the wine in the glass in one sip, and then forced a kiss on the beauty in her arms.

The beauty was named Wu, and she was the sister of Liu Zhang's general Wu Yi, and also Liu Zhang's widowed sister-in-law.

Cao Cao's good wife, after he captured Chengdu, was very proud and sent someone to privately search for the beautiful women in the city to come.

Zhang Song, who surrendered in Xiancheng and made great contributions, agreed to his preferences and secretly advised Cao Cao, saying that Liu Zhang's widowed sister-in-law Wu had a beautiful appearance and was extremely charming.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, so he ordered Dian Wei to lead his personal army to forcibly break into Liu's mansion, and to capture the Wu family, forcibly come and have a happy life.

The Wu family was a woman who dared to resist, but she could only force herself to smile and let Cao Cao mercy.

"The daughter in Sichuan is the most beautiful and affectionate. Who doesn't admire a hero like Cao Gong? If Cao Gong still has the intention, Song will know several beautiful women."

At the bottom of the steps, only Zhang Song, who was drinking, made a comment to Cao Cao with a smile.

Cao Cao laughed loudly and did not answer positively, but only said four words: "The more you have, the better."

"Song understands." Zhang Song immediately understood, and a wicked smile rose from the corner of his mouth.

The two ministers were just having a good time when they were drinking, the personal soldiers outside the hall came to report that they were military advisors and generals Pang Tong, who had urgent matters to ask for a visit.

"Chengdu has been gone, and that boy Yuan Fang is still dragged by Zhang Lu. What urgent matters can there be..."

Cao Cao was disturbed by his "Ya Xing" and showed some displeasure, but he still invited Pang Tong to join.

When Cao Cao was defeated by Yuan Fang and fled to Jingzhou, it was Pang Tong who took the initiative to surrender and offered his advice to him to seize Sichuan.

This time, it was thanks to Pang Tong's plan. Although Cao Cao was unhappy with Pang Tong's disturbance, he had to see him.

A moment later, Pang Tong entered, Feng Cao Cao was so drunk that he looked like a beauty, and he couldn't help but frown.

"Shi Yuan, you came just right. This time, you have made great contributions to Shi Yuan. I have not had time to thank you. Come, let's drink them today." Cao Cao said with a smile.

Pang Tong said seriously: "Lord, we are just now in Xichuan. People are not attached to each other and have not yet established a foothold. There is still Yuan Fang staring at him in the north. Tong thought that it is not the time for the lord to drink and celebrate."

When Pang Tong said something, Cao Cao was so scented, and the alcoholic face immediately felt a little unhappy.

"Shi Yuanyan is so serious. Yuan Fang is still dragged by Zhang Lu. He first pacified the hearts of the people of Xichuan, and then took advantage of the old city of Yuan Fang to lead his troops to the north to defeat him, and then seize Hanzhong in one fell swoop. Isn't this the strategy we set in advance?" Cao Cao asked back in a depressed manner.

"I'm afraid our strategy has to be changed."

Pang Tong's expression suddenly became solemn, his voice increased by eight degrees, and he said in a deep voice: "Tong just received the latest information sent back by Zhongxiu. A few days ago, Yuan Fang had killed Han Sui, and Zhang Lu surrendered without a fight. All the important places in Hanzhong, including Nanzheng and Yangping Pass, have been obtained by Yuan Fang."

"What!"

Cao Cao screamed, pushed Wu's arms aside, jumped up, and his face was filled with alcohol, and the smoke disappeared instantly.

"Hanzhong has the solidity of Yangping Pass and the danger of Qinling Mountains. Even if that boy Yuan Fang has the ability to dominate the sky, how could he capture Hanzhong so quickly? How could this be possible?"

Cao Cao asked excitedly, and his incredible feelings seemed to be unable to believe that this was true.

Pang Tong said calmly: "Then Yuan Fang somehow actually built a grain transport tool called wooden ox and horse, and he overcame the inconvenience of transporting grain and grass on the Qinling Valley Road. Tong really didn't expect that he had such a skill."

Wooden ox and horse?

Listening to this unheard of things, Cao Cao was stunned and confused. At this moment, he suddenly felt a little at a loss on his originally energetic face.
