    Zhong Yao hid his troops and horses in the mountains and forests, and continued to send many scouts to investigate.  When it was getting dark, the scouts came back.

    "Report to your lord, the Han army came from Wuguan!"

    "My lord, the Han army came from Shangyong. There are about 40,000 people. The commander is Li Yan."

    "Reporting to your lord, General Zang Ba who was stationed at Wei Xing was killed in battle, and the entire garrison was wiped out!"

    "Report to your lord, Li Yan is leading an army to attack Tongguan!"

    These pieces of news directly knocked Zhong Yao down.  He only felt that his head was dizzy and he couldn't think straight.

    It took a long time to recover from the shock.

    "It's really a big deal to come out of Shangyong, conquer Wei Xing, seize Wuguan, and then take advantage of the situation to occupy Chang'an and Tongguan, and control the entire Sili, Jingzhaoyin, Guanzhong, and Yongzhou!" Zhong Yao murmured to himself.

    "Sir, what should we do?" the soldier commander asked, "our family members are all in the city!"

    "This" Zhong Yao was confused and didn't know what to do.

    The family members must have fallen into the hands of the Han army, but Zhong Yao was not very worried.  Under normal circumstances, the enemy will not harm the family members.

    What Zhong Yao is really worried about is Tongguan!

    Wu Dun led five thousand soldiers and horses to station at Tongguan. Although Tongguan was a natural danger, Li Yan's army came from the rear and was caught off guard. Wu Dun would definitely not be able to defend it.

    There are only more than a thousand defeated soldiers left under his command. Even if they go, they will not have any effect. Moreover, Tongguan may have been lost by this time.

    If Tongguan is lost, where will you go?

    "Reporting to your lord, there is a messenger claiming to be sent by Chang'an guard Wang Ping to deliver a letter to your lord!" At this time, a soldier ran over and handed over a letter.

    "This is from Wang Ping!" Zhong Yao took the letter and opened it slowly.

    After reading it, Zhong Yao suddenly felt so weak that he could hardly stand.

    "My lord, what does this letter say?" the soldier commander asked.

    "Donling Pass, Hulao Pass, Sishui Pass, and Tongguan were all occupied by the Han army. The two ferries of Mengjin and Xiaopingjin were also captured by Huang Zhong. The entire Yuzhou was occupied by Zhao Yun and Wei Yan. Our retreat was completely cut off."

    Zhong Yao knew clearly that at this time, the most important thing for Wei King Cao Cao was to station heavy troops along the Baima, Guandu, and Chenliu areas to defend Yanzhou, and he could not take care of Luoyang and Chang'an at all.

    "What about our family members in the city?" The commander of the personal soldiers was only concerned about his family members at this time.

    "General Wang Ping said that he sent soldiers to protect us, and no harm was done to us, so he advised us to surrender!"

    "Then let's"

    "Now we have no city, no food and grass, the Han army is in front, and the Hanzhong army is behind us. What other options do we have?" Zhong Yao sighed, "Of the 20,000 troops, there are only more than a thousand people left. I don't want to make any more."  He was killed. Liu Cong is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. After all, we are all one family, so we should surrender, right?"

    "No!" The commander of the soldiers seemed to be relieved.

    At Sishui Pass, Liu Cong was very happy after receiving the battle reports from all sides.

    It took a lot of effort to attack Sishui Pass and many soldiers and horses were lost.  Zhang He was worthy of being one of the four pillars of Hebei Province. Five thousand soldiers guarded Sishui Pass for ten days.  It wasn't until all the soldiers at the pass were dead and wounded and the reinforcements were blocked that they abandoned the pass and fled.

    Now, the entire strategic goal has been achieved.

    Yuzhou has been captured, and it is guarded by Wei Yan, Zhao Yun, Pang Tong, Tian Yu and others, so it can be said to be foolproof.  There is no problem with Jiang Wan being in charge of government affairs. He was one of the four prime ministers of the Shu Han Dynasty in history!

    Li Yan did not disappoint him. After taking Wei Xing and Wuguan, he used Guan Yu to occupy Chang'an without any bloodshed.  Then, they joined Tongguan, Mengjin, and Xiaopingjin, completely blocking Cao Cao in Guandong, forcing Xu Huang to shrink and abandon Hongnong and other places.

    More importantly, Zhong Yao surrendered to him.  With Zhong Yao, Chang'an will have no worries in the future.

    Although Guan Yu was still in the area of ??Chang'an and Gaoling, they did not have many troops and horses, and it was not easy to transport food and grass. They could not capture Chang'an to the east and Chencang to the west, so they were in a very embarrassing situation.

    But thinking that Zhuge Liang was still around Chang'an, Liu Cong still felt a little uneasy.  Anyone in later generations will admire Zhuge Liang's wisdom with admiration. This is the embodiment of human wisdom!

    "Xiao Zhi, Zhuge Liang is in Xianyang. Although he does not have many soldiers and horses, there are powerful generals like Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, which is a hidden danger after all. Should we take this opportunity to annihilate him or drive him back to Hanzhong?"

    "Main??, we are still allies with Liu Bei at this time. If we send troops, it will not be unfair!  Fazheng shook his head, "If we want to gain a foothold in Guanzhong, we must rely on Wuguan, Tongguan, Xiaoguan and Sanguan."  They didn't even occupy a single pass and couldn't gain a foothold at all!  "

    Liu Cong said no more, but judging from the expression on his face, he was still worried.

    "Don't worry, my lord, I think we will have a chance soon. By then, Liu Bei will be blamed for breaking the covenant." Fazheng smiled.

    "Oh? What's Xiaozhi's clever plan?" Liu Cong asked urgently.

    "The news of Li Yan's dispatch of troops will soon reach Hanzhong. Liu Bei is salivating over Shangyong!" Fazheng's smile became a little cunning, "But my lord, don't worry, Li Yan must be prepared, Liu Bei can't ask for it!"  Cheap!"

    "Ha" Liu Cong also laughed, very relaxed, "Leave Sishui Pass to Niu Jin. Let's go to Luoyang and be prepared."

    "No!"

    There are eight passes around Luoyang, among which Hangu Pass is now abandoned. Yique Pass, Dongling Pass, Hulao Pass, Sishui Pass, Mengjin, Xiaopingjin, and Tongguan were all occupied by the Han army. Huang Zhong's Feiyu Camp,  Deng Ai's Feitian Camp and Li Yan's Tiger Camp had a total of 50,000 troops stationed in Luoyang and Chang'an.

    The palaces in the city have been initially repaired, and Liu Cong asked Ma Liang to prepare to move the Zhennan General's Mansion and the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion to Luoyang.

    Luoyang is the imperial capital in the minds of all Han people. Jingzhou officials are very happy, and the merchants and aristocratic families are also very excited.  Luoyang was burned to the ground by Dong Zhuo. Now that it is being rebuilt, there is nothing left to be done!

    New aristocratic families and new wealthy families will rise again!  Every home will be filled with opportunities.  Now Xiangyang's commerce has become the center of the entire Han Dynasty, but it must be too far to the south. Luoyang's prosperity will definitely exceed Xiangyang's in the future.

    The Cai family, Kuai family, Ma family and other aristocratic families are rebuilding Luoyang City, and the enthusiasm of the heads of the three families is unprecedentedly high.  For such a major event, the state pastoral government provided funds, and they only contributed their efforts. Everyone can see that this is the state pastoral trust or respect for the three families.  Can Cai Xi, Kuai Liang, and Ma Jing not work hard?

    The standard is naturally based on the standards of the imperial palace. How can the imperial capital be inferior to Yecheng!  Moreover, everyone is discussing one thing. After the Zhou Mu Palace moves to Luoyang, it will no longer be called the Zhou Mu Palace, but will be called the Wang Palace!  In other words, Liu Zhoumu must be king.

    In the past, there was only Jingzhou, but now there are Yuzhou and Sili. It is no longer appropriate to call Jingzhou Mu.

    After Cao Cao and Liu Zhang became kings, the emperor in Yecheng had already lost his prestige.  In the hearts of Jingzhou officials and people, Liu Cong was the true destiny, and he was from the lineage of Emperor Guangwu. Not to mention proclaiming himself king, he was proclaiming emperor, and it was also a matter of destiny.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
