    Longxi was a place that the Silk Road must pass through during the Western Han Dynasty. It is located on the upper reaches of the Wei River. Its geographical location is very important and must be fought over by military strategists.  If Han Sui occupied Longxi County and blocked Liu Zhe's troops, Liangzhou would be very safe. Once lost, Liangzhou would be in great danger.

    Ma Teng really felt unbelievable. After Dong Zhuo died and Yongzhou fell into chaos, he and Han Sui jointly sent troops and captured many places. One-third of Yongzhou fell into their hands. Even Cao Ren could not do anything to them.  .

    Now that he suddenly heard that Liu Zhe's troops had occupied the place they had captured before and pushed their troops to the door of Han Sui's hometown, Ma Teng found it hard to believe anything he said.

    ¡°I learned from Ma Chao last night that Liu Zhe¡¯s troops had been sent for less than a month. In such a short period of time, they had taken back all the places they had captured before?

    Are you bragging?  In the end, Ma Teng could only think of this reason. He felt that Liu Zhe must be bragging. Did he really think that his soldiers and horses were heavenly soldiers and divine generals?

    "Yesreally?"

    After Ma Teng came to his senses, he smiled and said, "In that case, congratulations my lord."

    "What? Don't believe it?"

    Liu Zhe knew what Ma Teng was thinking when he saw Ma Teng's reaction.

    In fact, Liu Zhe didn¡¯t really believe it at first. After all, the distance from here to Longxi is more than a thousand miles, and the road is rugged. It would be too fast to go all the way.  But after reading the detailed battle report, Liu Zhe understood.

    Han Sui only left a large army to defend Qixian, and then dispersed the large army, hoping to swallow up Ma Teng's territory as soon as possible.  He thought that with Ma Chao blocking Guan Yu and Qixian's army, he could already block Guan Yu's army. When he captured Ma Teng's territory, his strength would increase dramatically and he would no longer be afraid of Guan Yu's army.

    However, what Han Sui did not expect was that Liu Zhe dared to send Guan Yu to bypass Yunyang County, bypass Ma Chao, and attack him directly.  Qixian County was captured, and Guan Yu did not encounter any strong resistance. By the time Han Sui reacted, Guan Yu had already led his troops to Longxi County and surrounded Xiangwu County, the seat of Longxi County.

    When Guan Yu sent back the message, he had already told Liu Zhe in the message that he would capture Xiangwu City in the near future, and it should have been captured by now.

    Even Liu Zhe was surprised by Guan Yu's speed, let alone Ma Teng who was unaware.

    "No, it's just, it's just"

    Ma Teng doesn¡¯t know what to say. From yesterday to now, Ma Teng has encountered too many situations where he has nothing to say.

    Ma Chao also wanted to ask for orders to go back to Liangzhou to deal with the old guy Han Sui, but he also heard what Liu Zhe said to Ma Teng and was equally shocked, so he gave up the idea.

    Liu Zhe said to Ma Teng: "Shoucheng, you are not young anymore. It is time to enjoy peace and happiness. Come back to Youzhou with me on this trip."

    Things here are over, and Liu Zhe is ready to return to Youzhou.

    "this¡­"

    Ma Teng was dumbfounded when he heard this. He knew that Liu Zhe wanted to use him as a hostage and detain him in Youzhou.

    Ma Teng was worried and wanted to refuse, but could he refuse?

    Liu Zhe asked him with a smile: "Why, Shoucheng doesn't want to?"

    Ma Teng looked up at Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe had a smile on his face, but there was murderous intent in his eyes.

    Ma Teng couldn't help but shudder. He understood that if he dared to say no today, Liu Zhe would not hesitate to find a reason to kill him in the future. Liu Zhe valued his son, not him.

    "No! No! No!" For the sake of his own life, Ma Teng could only lower his head and said: "My subordinate is willing"

    ?¡­

    In October of the third year of Jian'an, Liu Zhe withdrew his troops from Yongzhou and returned to Youzhou.

    From the dispatch of troops to the withdrawal of troops, the Battle of Yongzhou, which lasted for five or six months, came to an end.

    This battle shocked the princes of the world who knew about the incident. Cao Cao was defeated so completely. One hundred thousand troops were blocked outside the gate of Yongzhou. After numerous casualties, he finally had to give up Yongzhou and fled back to Xudu in embarrassment.

    You must know that Cao Cao defeated Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei at that time. He was unparalleled in the limelight and his strength was already the second in the world. Even many people under Cao Cao optimistically believed that Cao Cao's strength was almost the same as Liu Zhe's.

    However, in the battle of Yongzhou, Liu Zhe once again let the world know the gap between Cao Cao and him.

    And Liu Zhe captured Yongzhou, and Liangzhou was about to be taken into his hands. This news made everyone under Liu Zhe ecstatic.  Guanzhong, this is the Guanzhong that Liu Bang once relied on to win the world.

    ? ??ÖÐ refers to the places within the "Four Passes", including Chang'an, Chencang, Linjin and other places.

    The south of Guanzhong is surrounded by the Qinling Mountains, with the Wei River passing through it.  There are natural terrain barriers on all sides, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since the Warring States Period, there has been a saying of "a country with four fortresses".

    If Liu Zhe had not ordered Guan Yu to wait for an opportunity to cross the river and occupy Linjin, it would not have been so easy for him to conquer Yongzhou this time.  It was precisely because Yongzhou was full of loopholes that Cao Cao gave up Yongzhou easily.

    During the Warring States Period, Zhang Yi presented the plan of "Lian Heng" to King Hui of Qin, and praised Guanzhong for its "fertile fields, prosperous people, thousands of chariots, fighting for hundreds of trades, thousands of miles of fertile fields, and abundant reserves" and said, "This  The so-called Tianfu means the most powerful country in the world. This is because Guanzhong has become a geomantic treasure land rich in products and the capital of emperors since the Zhengguo Canal was built during the Warring States Period.

    After Liu Bang secretly seduced Chencang and captured Guanzhong, he had the capital to compete with Xiang Yu in the world. Later, he directly established the capital in Chang'an, which established the national destiny of the Western Han Dynasty for more than two hundred years.

    Liu Zhe occupies Guanzhong, does it mean destiny?

    Some of Liu Zhe's subordinates started to be jealous. Although they were jealous, they did not dare to talk nonsense. However, some people did not care about this. Some even suggested that someone go to the imperial court and confer Liu Zhe the title of King of Guanzhong to commend Liu Zhe's contribution.  .

    Anyway, Liu Zhe¡¯s surname is Liu, which does not violate Liu Bang¡¯s previous rule that no one without the surname Liu can be king.

    As soon as these words came out, many of Liu Zhe's subordinates became energetic. Yes, Liu Zhe must be rewarded with a title of king.

    However, the people below hope so, but the smart people don¡¯t think so.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
