The confusion of Guan Yu and others is not in military affairs. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others are all generals, and they are also supported by an excellent military advisor like Huang Yueying. They are fearless in military issues.
However, now we are not going to run away after fighting, but to occupy Hanzhong. In addition to military issues, there are still many civil issues, local issues, etc.
Guan Yu and the others could not ignore this trivial matter. The thousand-mile dike was destroyed by an ant hole. Any small matter, if not handled properly, could cause a huge disaster.
Therefore, to conquer a place, one must stabilize a place. This is the primary priority. Although it is quite tedious to appease the hearts of local people and rectify local officials. But for the well-trained Guan Yu army, that is not
What a big problem? What's more, Zhang Lu is accompanied by Guan Yu's army. With Zhang Lu's prestige in Hanzhong, it would be easy to appease the people of Hanzhong.
However, the land of Bashu, where Han and Yi live together, Hanzhong is no exception. Previously, whether it was the original Zhang Lu or Zhuge Liang who later usurped Hanzhong, they adopted lenient and favorable policies for these ethnic minorities.
Governance with a pacification strategy and let it be self-governed. It is called "the people and the barbarians enjoy themselves."
However, this strategy is incompatible with Youzhou's strategy of treating foreign tribes. Youzhou advocates: "Hanyi family." Although treating ethnic minorities equally, they will never treat preferential treatment, let alone let them rule themselves. This is like
It is a few children in a family, and parents should treat them fairly. They should not turn one off or go to another. They should not control and educate a child just because he is rebellious, but instead allow him to develop.
But now the confusion is here. Nowadays, the barbarians of all ethnic groups in Hanzhong have been in power due to the decline of the Han Dynasty regime. The princes are in charge of their own affairs. Zhang Lu, Zhuge Liang and others do not want to cause trouble. This causes dissatisfaction and confrontation among these barbarians. These barbarians are like
They were spoiled children, wild horses that had never brought reins. They simply ignored the rules that were promoted by the king. They ignored them.
If the king's law cannot be implemented from the beginning, and the agreement becomes a custom in the future, it will be even more unsupported. If the Youzhou Army follows the past countermeasures, the army should suppress it.
Compulsive, direct.
But now that Hanzhong is not stable, Sun Quan's troops have not yet completely retreated. It is really difficult to cause trouble. Moreover, the number of barbarians in Hanzhong is quite large. It is easy to cause disputes and fight. It is also easy to cause dissatisfaction among the locals.
Zhuge Liang took the opportunity to provoke trouble. Now for Guan Yu and others, occupying Hanzhong, opening up the established channels, and completing the strategic deployment of the unification of the world is the fundamental goal of Guan Yu and others in this trip.
Therefore, this dilemma made Guan Yu and others quite confused.
Just when Guan Yu and the others were confused by the barbarians in Hanzhong and were disobeyed by Wang Hua, the war report came. The Wu army, who had retreated to Bazhong, retreated again, and retreated directly to Jiange.
Guan Yu and others were stunned. Why did Zhuge Liang, who had always been very interested in fighting, retreated this time without fighting? And he retreated so far.
Only Zhang Fei and Huang Yueying laughed. However, Huang Yueying was laughing without saying anything. She was determined to be in her heart. Zhang Fei laughed wildly.
Guan Yu knew Zhang Fei's temperament and ignored him. But Yan Liang asked in discomfort: "The third general, the Zhuge Villageman, retreated without fighting, and his intention was unclear. Our army was plagued by trivial matters at this time.
It’s not convenient to pursue. Why did the third general laugh?”
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "That Zhuge Villageman is so popular with my elder brother. It is even more powerful in the rumors. Now he can't help but fight. After losing a few battles, he was scared away by us. He doesn't care about us.
Is there time to beat him? Why don’t you laugh like such a timid person?"
Yan Liang was a little surprised. Did Zhang Fei say the truth about Zhuge Liang?
Guan Yu was also laughed a little by Zhang Fei. However, Guan Yu still held back and didn't laugh. He kept his image as the head coach. Guan Yu ignored Zhang Fei and asked Huang Yueying directly: "Military advisor. Look at that
What does Zhuge Liang mean when he leads his troops to retreat to Hanzhong?”
Huang Yueying smiled and said, "Return to the general, Zhuge Liang led the army to meet Jiange. It is the place where his wise men are located. Although Bazhong has city defense, it is only a small city. It is not as many troops as Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang fought with our army in a field and took his own life.
Destruction. Zhuge Liang was able to use Zhang Ren's generals to be so talented. It can be seen that his army is not low. He will definitely know this point. The Jiange has high mountains and dangerous obstacles, which is no different from the Qishan Pass and Yangping Pass. It is even better.
Moreover, surrounded by mountains in Shu, except for Jiange, there is only a small road in Shu. The plank road is not convenient for the army to pass through. Therefore, this Jiange has become our only throat road to Shu. Now, Zhuge Liang
Leading the army to retreat to Jiange, it can be seen that Zhuge Liang is preparing to use the geographical advantage to compete with us."
Guan Yu and others felt it was beneficial after hearing this. Even Zhang Fei smirked awkwardly, which was considered to be acknowledging Huang Yueying's inference.
Guan Yu asked Huang Yueying again and said, "Military advisor, since that's the case, how should our army do you mean?"
"This battle in Hanzhong is an unplanned war. Moreover, the military rations in Hanzhong have been burned down, and it is all dependent on the supply of military rations in Liangzhou. The military rations stored in Liangzhou are not very abundant, and they still need to
Bingzhou and Jizhou provide support. Therefore, I think our army is easy to defend, stabilize, and then slowly advance. Anyway, the initiative of the war is at this time, so we can arrange it calmly. Moreover, those barbarians are still unwilling to accept the king's transformation at this time.
We also made a vacant army and horses to subdue one by one, once and for all, and avoid our confidants." Huang Yueying said calmly.
"The Wuliang Heavenly Lord. No, no. The places where the barbarians live are all poor mountains and rivers and dense forests. If the army suppresses them, they will not win at least. If there are too many, the barbarians will move and hide in the deep mountains, and work hard but fail to make a contribution.
Among the mountains, let alone the hundreds of thousands of troops we have now. Even a million troops will not be able to fill it. They can only lead them to the nose. It is better to comfort them. The military advisors are three or four."
Before Guan Yu could think of Huang Yueying's advice, Zhang Lu, who was familiar with the local situation, had already raised specific difficulties. Obviously, Zhang Lu also suffered losses in this regard, so he was so deeply touched.
Huang Yueying made a lot of sense, and Youzhou has always done this. Youzhou has always pursued the strategy of assimilating foreign races by "Han and Yi family." It is impossible to set a precedent for some small ethnic groups. But Zhang
All Lu said is true. Among the mountains that stretched thousands of miles, the Youzhou Army’s hundreds of thousands of troops were nothing. And it was even more impossible to waste so much troops and not to unify the world, but instead go.
To wipe out several small clans. But although these barbarian tribes are small, if they cannot be controlled, when the army and the Wu army are fighting in the future, these clans will be tempted by the enemy and start to make trouble inside, which is also a sword in their stomachs.
A nail in the meat.
For a moment, Guan Yu turned back to his previous confusion.
Seeing that Guan Yu could not make a decision for a long time, Zhang Lu suggested again: "Wuliang Tianzun, General Guan, and the land of Bayi, they transformed into the people outside the country, and were headed by Du Bian, Pu Hu, Yuan Yue and others. These people were Su
He has a good friendship with me. If the general is gentle, he will speak out from it. He will protect these people without two hearts."
Guan Yu inspected Huang Yueying with his eyes. Huang Yueying nodded and said in agreement: "There is a true man Zhang to talk about the situation. This matter is also feasible. If those barbarians are reasonable, they should know that the Han and the Chinese are one, and the kings and laws are equal. As long as they respect our laws and regulations.
, and naturally, they will know the benefits in the future. Everyone will be safe and sound. Otherwise, they will comfort them first, and when we know where they are hiding, we can capture them in one fell swoop."
Seeing that Huang Yueying also agreed with this, Guan Yu nodded and told Zhang Lu to invite Du Bian, Park Hu, and Yuan to come for an interview. Afterwards, Guan Yu ordered Yan Liang to lead 50,000 troops to take over in Bazhong. Although Zhuge Liang was still in charge, he ordered him to lead 50,000 troops to take over.
No, but Guan Yu couldn't let it go. Moreover, it was a front outpost to Jiange. Now Zhuge Liang led the army to retreat, but he couldn't let Zhuge Liang go in and out at will. If Zhuge Liang came out of Jiange again,
It is also a problem to sneak into other places in Hanzhong.
Two days later, Zhang Lu sent a letter to make an appointment with Du Fu, Park Hu, Yuan Yue and others. Not to mention, Du Fu, Park Hu, Yuan Yue and others trusted Zhang Lu very much, and there were many of them.
Here comes. Each of these people brought 100 or 20 guards and 100 or 200 relatives. Thousands of people gathered in Hanning, which surprised Guan Yu. These people were not showing off,
It can still bring so many relatives, which shows that the potential of these barbarians is still very strong. In short, these barbarians will have no less than 50,000 or 60,000 troops. If there are more,
One hundred and two hundred thousand is also very likely.
After everyone gathered together, Guan Yu took the lead and said, "Everyone, Guan Yu, Guan Yun, was ordered by the Grandmaster to expel the bandits and rescue Hanzhong. Then, we need more support from you."
"Where, where? General Guan is polite. We will rely on General Guan for taking care of him in the future." A group of old fried dough sticks, haha, and flattering voices, immediately rose up.
However, in such a flattering voice, a sarcastic voice seemed particularly harsh. "We all ethnic groups live here for generations. Before you Han people came, our ancestors were already here. Without you, what
The thief who came. What is the point of rescuing?”
