Ma Teng's entry into Xudu can be regarded as solving Cao Cao's worries about Liangzhou. Subsequently, tens of thousands of Cao Cao's troops went north, and Cao Cao, who was far away in Xiangyang, also received the message and immediately led his troops back to Xuchang.
At this time, Gao Jin's army of more than 100,000 people had already moved north. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the vanguards, breaking through and killing generals along the way. Yuan Shang's army was invincible.
Yuan Shang had just taken over Hebei, and Yuan Tan and Gao Gan led their troops to attack Yizhou. They had no choice but to lead their troops to resist. When they heard that Gao Jin had sent troops, they were shocked and turned to Shen Ping. Guo Tu and others said:
: "Now Yuan Tan and Gao Jin are attacking from the left and right, what should we do?"
Yuan Shang is indeed in a dilemma. Youzhou's troops and horses are temporarily unable to save the fire from far away. At this time, there are only 70,000 to 80,000 people in Yizhou. With Yuan Tan on one side and Gao Jin on the other, if the troops are divided, it may be difficult to resist, so they must give up.
All the way.
Shen Pei said: "My lord, Gao Jin is an outsider. Although he is fierce, the counties can resist it, but Yuan Tan is like a tiger. If the lord just sits idly by and ignores him, the governors of the counties will definitely turn to support Yuan Tan. At that time,
, then Hebei is no longer owned by the Lord."
The judge's words are correct. Gao Jin is an outsider and cannot gain the trust of the Hebei family and the governors and officials from various places. Therefore, they will naturally resist Gao Jin spontaneously. However, Yuan Tan is different. After all, he is also a descendant of the Yuan family.
, with this title, Yizhou will probably fall into the hands of Yuan Tan. Therefore, although Yuan Tan's military strength is weak, it poses the greatest threat to Yuan Shang.
Yuan Shangdao: "If I personally lead the army to resist Yuan Tan, who can resist Gao Jin for me?"
Shen Pei said: "We can ask General Zhang Jaw to lead 30,000 troops to fight Gao Jin."
Yuan Shang frowned: "This person has always been at odds with me, and I'm afraid he is not willing to die for me."
Yuan Shang's worries are quite reasonable. Zhang Zha has never been close to Yuan Shang. When it comes to the dispute over heirs, he also maintains an absolutely detached attitude and is impartial. In Yuan Shang's opinion, this person is not worthy of trust.
Shen Pei said: "Zhang Zha is a good general. If he leads the army, he may be able to protect Yizhou. If it is someone else, I cannot guarantee it."
Yuan Shang remained silent for a long time before saying: "Please come, General Zhang."
After about a moment, he came slowly with his jaw open and a suit of mail, and bowed respectfully to Yuan Shang: "My lord, what are you calling me for?"
Zhang Zha did not receive much importance in Hebei. He first joined Han Fu, then Han Fu was defeated and switched to Yuan Shao. He made many contributions in the battle with Gongsun Zan.
Yuan Shao captured Jizhou and Han Fu was defeated. Zhang He led his troops to join Yuan Shao and served as a lieutenant to fight against Gongsun Zan. Later, Gongsun Zan was defeated and Zhang He made great contributions and was promoted to Ningguo Zhonglang General.
Historically, the two armies of Cao and Yuan faced each other in Guandu. Yuan Shao sent Chun Yuqiong to lead more than 10,000 troops to escort the army supplies and station them in Wuchao. Cao Cao left his general to guard the camp and personally led his troops to attack Wuchao. Zhang He believed that Cao Cao's soldiers were elite and Chun Yuqiong would be defeated.
, should go to the rescue quickly, but Yuan Shao's counselor Guo Tu suggested attacking Cao Cao's base camp. Yuan Shao accepted Guo Tu's suggestion, Zhang He dissuaded him, but Yuan Shao refused to listen, and only sent light cavalry to rescue Wuchao, and sent heavy troops to attack Cao Cao's base camp.
, the result could not be captured. Soon, Wuchao was defeated. When the news came, Yuan Jun's army was shaken. After hearing the news, Guo Tu was greatly ashamed. In order to shirk responsibility, he falsely accused Zhang He of not fighting hard, and even made rude remarks after the failure. Zhang He's heart
Afraid, Cao Cao and his general Gao Lan angrily defected to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was very happy when he heard that Zhang He had come to surrender. He compared the incident to a Weizi going to Yin and Han Xin returning to Han. So he made Zhang He a partial general, made him the capital of Tinghou, and granted him troops.
Fighting with the army. From this, it can be seen that Zhang He is a very strategic general who knows military aircraft well, and he lives up to his reputation as a "clever change".
Zhang He then followed Cao Cao to conquer Yecheng and defeated Yuan Shang. The following year, he followed Cao Cao to eliminate Yuan Tan's forces in Nanpi.
Cao Cao went on an expedition against Wuhuan, with Zhang He and Zhang Liao serving as the vanguard. After the war, Zhang He was promoted to General Pingdi due to his meritorious service. Later, Zhang He participated in the campaigns against Guan Cheng, Chen Lan, Meicheng and others...
Ma Chao and Han Sui rebelled. Zhang He went out with Cao Cao and defeated the Central Army in Weinan. Then Zhang He led his army to besiege Anding and defeated Yang Qiu.
With the support of Zhang Lu, Ma Chao made a comeback. Zhang He followed Xia Houyuan to defeat Ma Chao and put down Song Jian's rebellion. Cao Cao personally led an army to attack Hanzhong, entering from Sanguan, and sent Zhang to lead 5,000 infantry to clear the way to Yangping. Zhang
Lu surrendered, and Cao Cao returned to his army, leaving Zhang He, Xia Houyuan, Xu Huang and others to guard Hanzhong to resist Liu Bei. In the same year, Zhang He led his troops south to attack Brazil County, hoping to move the local people to Hanzhong. Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei, the conscript general, as the governor of Brazil County.
, to fight Zhang He. Zhang He's army advanced to Yanqu and was defeated by Zhang Fei. This time Zhang He and Zhang Fei stalemate for more than fifty days. Later, Zhang Fei took advantage of the favorable terrain to cut off Zhang He's front and rear connections, leaving him isolated and helpless, and finally defeated him.
.Zhang He suffered heavy losses and fled with only a few dozen people.
Liu Bei attacked Hanzhong and stationed in Yangping. Xia Houyuan, Zhang He, Xu Huang and others led the army to meet the attack. Zhang He was responsible for the defense of Guangshi. Liu Bei personally led more than 10,000 elite troops, divided into ten groups, and stormed Zhang He at night. Zhang He personally led the troops to fight against the Shu army.
After fighting, Liu Bei could not conquer. The following year, the Wei army's commander Xia Houyuan died in the battle at Dingjun Mountain. Cao's army was defeated. Zhang He and the defeated army retreated to Yangping Guandong. Sima Guo Huai and the governor Du Xi gathered the scattered soldiers and elected Zhang He to succeed Xia Houyuan as the Wei army's commander.
Zhang He took charge. He commanded the soldiers, arranged the camp, and the morale of the army was stable. Liu Bei wanted to cross the Han River to attack, but saw the Wei army arrayed north of the Han River to meet him. Liu Bei gave up crossing the river and held a stalemate across the water. Soon, Cao Cao sent an envoy to order Zhang He to take a leave of absence.
Later, Cao Cao personally attacked Hanzhong but could not win, so he withdrew his troops from Hanzhong and ordered Zhang He to garrison troops in Chencang.
Cao Pi came to the throne, appointed Zhang He as General of the Left, and granted him the title of Duxiang Marquis. Soon after, Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, and granted Zhang He the title of Marquis of Marquis. He then ordered Zhang He to follow Cao Zhen in conquering the stable Hu Qiang, and then went to court with Cao Zhen to meet Zhang He.
Xia Houshang attacked Jiangling together. Zhang He supervised the troops across the river, captured Zhoushang Tunwu, and defeated Sun Sheng's main force of more than 10,000 people in Tunwu, which was another great achievement.
When Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming came to the throne, Zhang He was ordered to station troops in Jingzhou, and he and Sima Yi attacked Sun Quan's general Liu A and others, pursued them to Qi**, and defeated the Wu army.
Zhuge Liang, Prime Minister of Shu, made his first Northern Expedition, and the three counties of Nan'an, Tianshui, and Anding responded. Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui added Zhang He to the throne and made him supervise all the armies. He fought with Shu general Ma Di at Jieting. Ma Di defended Nanshan and refused to occupy the city, so he was defeated by Zhang He.
He cut off the water source and was defeated. Then, Zhang He suppressed the rebellion in the three counties. Emperor Wei Ming Cao Rui issued an edict to commend Zhang He and increase the number of households by 1,000 households, totaling 4,300 households. Sima Yi was training the navy in Jingzhou and wanted to follow the Mianjiang River.
When the Yangtze River entered the Yangtze River to attack Wu, Emperor Wei Ming Cao Rui ordered Zhang He to lead all the troops in Guanzhong to Jingzhou to receive dispatch. After Zhang He arrived in Jingzhou, it was winter and the water was shallow and large ships could not pass. So he returned to the army and garrisoned in Fangcheng. At the end of the same year, Zhuge Liang became the second
During the Northern Expedition, he left Sanguan and besieged Chencang. Emperor Wei Ming, Cao Rui, urgently summoned Zhang He to Beijing, gave him 30,000 soldiers to command, and sent Wu Wei, Huben and other bodyguards to protect Zhang He. Emperor Wei Ming also personally went to Henan City to buy wine for the prime minister.
Asked Zhang He whether he could rescue Chencang in time, Zhang He judged that Zhuge Liang's army had no food and grass and would not last long, so he replied that Zhuge Liang had already retreated by the time the reinforcements arrived. Zhang He led his army to Nanzheng overnight, and Zhuge Liang retreated as expected, so he was ordered to return to Nanzheng.
Kyoto, was worshiped as a cavalry general in the Western Conquest.
During Zhuge Liang's fourth Northern Expedition, Zhang He followed Sima Yi to resist him. Later, Zhuge Liang ran out of food and retreated. Zhang He pursued to Mumen and fought with Zhuge Liang's army. He was shot in the right knee by a flying arrow and died. He was posthumously named Zhuanghou and was succeeded by his son Zhang Xiong.
Because of Zhang He's meritorious service in the previous battles, Emperor Wei Ming divided Zhang He's food town, named Zhang He's four sons as marquises, and named his youngest son as the marquis of Guannei.
Zhang Jia can be said to be the person who experienced the most battles during the Three Kingdoms period. At that time, "Liu Bei was stationed at Yangping and planned to attack Hanzhong, and Zhang He was stationed at Guangshi. Liu Bei divided his troops into ten groups with more than 10,000 elite soldiers and rushed to attack He at night. He led his troops
Liu Bei cannot defeat him in a fight." Liu Bei came from Hebei and went north from Yuan Shao. He should have known about Zhang He. The Battle of Yangping and Guangshi may have caused a huge psychological shadow on him. After Xia Houyuan's defeat and death, "It should be
At that time, the newly lost marshal might be taken advantage of by Bei, and all three armies would be eclipsed. Yuan Sima Guo Huai said to everyone: "General Zhang is a famous general in the country, and Liu Bei is afraid of it. Today's matter is urgent, and it can't be settled except by General Zhang." He then pushed He.
As the leader of the army, Zhang He came out, gathered his troops and set up their formations, all the generals accepted He's control, and everyone's hearts were set." This prevented Liu Bei from taking advantage of him, which also shows Zhang He's prestige in the army...
Later, Cao Cao personally attacked Hanzhong but could not win, so he withdrew his troops from Hanzhong and ordered Zhang He to garrison troops in Chencang.
After that, Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi came to the throne, and Emperor Wen of Wei succeeded to the throne, with Zhang He as the left general. He "challenged He and Zhen to pacify Lu Shuihu and Dong Qiang, summoned Zhang He to join Xu Palace, and sent Nan and Xiahou Shang to attack Jiangling." In the early Wei Dynasty, Zhu
It was customary for Cao Xiahou to lead the army in battle, but it was generals with foreign surnames like Zhang He who actually fought on the front lines.
At that time, Cao Pi ordered Cao Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Zang Ba to go out of the cave, Cao Ren to go out from Ruxu, Cao Zhen, Xia Houshang, Zhang He, and Xu Huang to encircle Nanjun. Quan sent Lu Fan and others to supervise the five armies, and the boat army refused Xiu and others, Zhuge Jin, and Pan Zhang.
, Yang Can rescued Nanjun. In the spring and first month of the second year, Cao Zhen divided his army and occupied Zhongzhou in Jiangling." From the above, it can be seen that it was Zhang He who led the army to occupy Zhongzhou. "Wei sent Cao Zhen, Xia Houshang, Zhang He and others to attack Jiangling, and Emperor Wen of Wei lived in Wan
, for the reinforcements, they even garrisoned the city. Quan sent General Sun Sheng to supervise tens of thousands of people to prepare the prefecture and set up fortresses for external rescue. Hedu troops attacked Sheng, but Sheng could not refuse, so he immediately wanted to retreat, and He He occupied the prefecture and surrounded it.
We defended, but were cut off from China and foreign countries. Quan sent Pan Zhang, Yang Can and others to relieve the enemy, but the encirclement could not be relieved." This paragraph describes the process in detail.
This Jiangzhongzhou is of great military significance. For Cao Wei, it can block the rescue of the Jiangwu Army. For Soochow, it can be used as a base to attack Jiangling City at any time. In other words, occupying Jiangzhongzhou will control the entire Jiangzhongzhou.
The proactive nature of the war situation was actually due to the fact that the Wei army later occupied Jiangzhongzhou, leaving many supporting troops in Soochow helpless for a long time.
As for the status of Jiangzhongzhou, Soochow had a considerable understanding in advance, so they planned to "prepare tens of thousands of people on the state and set up a surrounding fort". Zhang He crossed the river to attack Sun Sheng, which was the biggest tough battle in the Battle of Jiangling.
"Wei general Xia Houshang and others surrounded Nanjun. He divided the front with 30,000 people to build a pontoon bridge and crossed Baili Island. Zhuge Jin and Yang Can joined forces to rescue them, but they did not know where they were coming from. However, Wei soldiers continued to cross day by day." Shan You
If the pontoon bridge is extended to a point on land, it is impossible to successfully seize the beach. Instead, the navy must cooperate, either to help eliminate the interference of the defenders on the pontoon bridge, or to contain and attract the troops of the defenders on the island from behind. The cooperation between the water and land parties is originally
It is quite difficult, and landing from the pontoon bridge exposes one's own front line to the enemy's side, so it is the most difficult and dangerous.
In the third year of Huangchu, Cao Pi arrived at Xingwan City to supervise the battle, and ordered Xiahou Shang to lead the army to surround Jiangling with Cao Zhen. Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin and Xiahou Shang's army to face the river, Jin crossed the river into Zhu, and divided the army in the middle of the river. Xia Hou Shang Shang held many oil ships at night, and more than 10,000 men on foot and cavalry sneaked across the river downstream to attack the Jin armies. They burned their boats across the Yangtze River and attacked them on both land and water to defeat them. "First, he sneaked across the river downstream to contain the naval forces, and then By ascending to Jiangzhongzhu by land, the effect of "attacking and defeating both land and water can be achieved".
"Cao Zhen, Xia Houshang and others surrounded Zhu Ran in Jiangling and divided Zhongzhou. Zhuge Jin sent a large number of soldiers to rescue him. Zhuge Jinjin was a gentle and generous person who reasoned and followed plans. He did not have the skills to rely on his soldiers and relied on them. The soldiers were puzzled for a long time. , Sun Quan looked at it from this, and when the spring water came out, Pan Zhang and others built a water city on the upper stream, Jin Jin attacked the pontoon bridge, and Zhen and others retreated. Although there was no great merit, it was still due to the whole army's protection of the territory."
In this battle on both land and water fronts, the biggest pressure brought by Wu from the front was the more than 10,000 people in Sun Sheng's camp. It was Zhang He who led the main force across the river in a fierce battle and finally defeated Sun Sheng's troops and occupied Jiangzhong.
Before and after Emperor Ming of Wei succeeded to the throne, the only remaining veterans since Cao Cao were Cao Zhen, Zhang He, Xu Huang and others. Sima Yi started around Cao Pi and rose rapidly in Wei during the era of Emperor Wen. The military center of Wei can be roughly attributed to Jianghan. In the two areas of Guanzhong, Zhang He followed Xiahou Yuan in Guanzhong to pacify the Qianghu and Wuhan Songjian. After Yuan's death, he commanded all the armies in Hanzhong. During the reign of Emperor Wen, "He and Zhen fought to pacify the Lushuihu and Dongqiang"; and later fought in the battle of Jiangling. Supervising all the armies to fight hard, "Emperor Ming ascended the throne and sent troops to the south to garrison Jingzhou. He and King Sima Xuan attacked Sun Quan's general Liu A and others, and pursued them to Qikou, where they fought and defeated them." All the armies in Jianghan and Guanzhong were commanded by Zhang He...
When Zhuge Liang first came out of Qishan, he raised his voice and took the post from the Xiegu Road, so that Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi were suspicious of the army. The order was issued, and the three counties of Nan'an, Tianshui and Anding rebelled against Wei Yingliang, and Guanzhong was shaken."
Emperor Wei Ming moved to the west of Chang'an and ordered Zhang He to reject Liang. He ordered Ma Di to supervise the troops one by one and fought with He in Jieting." The drastic changes in Guanzhong made Emperor Wei Ming uneasy and moved to the west of Chang'an to face Zhuge Liang from Qishan. The main force coming from this direction, the leading general sent by Emperor Wei Ming was Zhang He.
Zhang He started his career in the army, and at this time he was General Zuo and Hou Hou. Under the Cao Wei regime, this was the extreme limit for a general with a foreign surname. After all, Zhang He was neither a direct descendant of Cao Xiahou nor a close official of the emperors. Even if he served again later, he would be dismissed. Those in power tried to transfer the credit to their close relatives. Therefore, in the final years of Emperor Wen and the early years of Emperor Ming, although Zhang He had merit in several battles, he was not promoted. However, at this time, Emperor Ming's general Cao Zhen was restrained, and Sima Yi was in Jingzhou and could use Only Zhang He was left. Once defeated, Emperor Ming's own Chang'an would be exposed to the Shu army. At this time, Emperor Ming also put all his hopes on Zhang He with the mentality of taking a chance, so he was here An exceptional promotion to Zhang He at a critical moment.
Ma Di confronted Zhang Zha, and it was against the military law to "go up the mountain at the expense of the water and cause trouble by making mistakes." Under the advantageous situation, he led a large army to face the enemy but did not dare to fight hard in the city. He tried to go up the mountain to take advantage of the danger. Ma Su, who was "good at talking about military strategy", was "fearful" when faced with the situation. When he was frightened, he lost his mind and ignored military laws. This was in line with Liu Bei's words that "Ma Su exaggerated and could not be used to great effect". Ma Su's fault was not Intelligence lies in his ability. What made him fearful and abnormal was Zhang He's reputation. In this battle, Zhang He was indeed in line with his reputation. He easily used Ma Su's flaws to defeat his entire army. He remained calm in unfavorable situations. Adapt to the situation, and finally seize the opponent's flaw and break it, so that one's own disadvantage can be fully reversed. This may seem ordinary but is actually difficult. After this battle, all the good situations that Zhuge Liang had created with all his efforts were suddenly lost, and he had no choice but to Do not return to Hanzhong. Zhuge Liang's most successful trip out of Qishan ended with Zhang He's complete victory. Zhang He then led his army to defeat the three counties of Nan'an, Anding, and Tianshui who rebelled against Wei Yingshu.
In the Battle of Jieting, Zhang He actually defeated the main force of the Shu army with his own army. This result moved Emperor Wei Ming so much that he was promoted to a higher rank.
After the battle of Jieting, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the emptiness in Guanzhong to come back and attack Chencang. "The emperor's post horse summoned He to Kyoto. The emperor was lucky enough to have Henan City, bought wine to send He, 30,000 soldiers from the north and south, and dispatched armed guards, and Huben envoys to guard He."
As a general with a foreign surname, he was able to receive such treatment, which was absolutely unprecedented since the founding of Cao Wei. From this, we can see that Emperor Wei Ming had great trust in Zhang He. And subsequent facts also verified that Zhang He was familiar with military maneuvers: "Because
He asked He, "The general has arrived late, and the army has already captured Chencang!" He knew that the county army had no grain and could not attack for a long time. He said to him, "Before the ministers arrived, Liang had already left. It will take less than ten days to prepare the food."
'This is the legendary predicting the enemy thousands of miles away. Although Zhang He had already predicted the outcome of the Battle of Chencang, in order to reassure Emperor Ming, he marched morning and night. "He marched to Nanzheng in the morning and retreated at night."
Chencang was surrounded and Zhang He was summoned back to Kyoto, where he was called "General of Chariots and Cavalry in the Conquest of the West". He was second only to the Great Sima Cao Zhen and the Great General Sima Yi. This name should have mixed meanings. "Chariots and Cavalry" was given by General Zuo.
Promotion, this is a height that military generals with foreign surnames have never reached under the Cao Wei regime. "Conquer the West" is not only a military slogan, but also implies Zhang He's long-term support for the battles on the Western Front, especially the Jieting War.
The gratitude for the achievements made in the war. These complex emotions were mixed together, and an unprecedented and powerful bugle call "Zhengxi Chariot" was produced. So many years after the death of his contemporaries who once fought together, Zhang Hecai
reached his highest point.
A talent like Zhang Jaw should have been reused by Yuan Shao. In fact, in Hebei, although his bravery was slightly inferior to Yan Liangwen's ugly, he was far better than the two in leading troops. However, he never received much promotion, and
He didn't gain Yuan Shao's trust, but now, Yuan Shang suddenly gave Zhang Jia a chance.
Yuan Shang glanced at Zhang Jia and said, "General, can you resist Gao Jin for me?".
At this time, Zhang Jia did not expect that Yuan Shang would actually want to block Gao Jin. He naturally understood the current situation and pondered for a moment and said: "I am willing to go!"
