In the Chencangcheng County Magistrate¡¯s Mansion, Hao Zhao looked worried and was restless.
Since Chang'an was occupied by the Han army, all the grain and grass in Chencang were supplied by Zhao Yanlai in Tianshui.
When Jiang Jun first destroyed the city, he sealed up all the food and grass in the city and did not burn it. This made Cao Wei's generals very grateful.
According to time, the food and grass should have been delivered long ago, but there was no news. Moreover, Zhu Ling, who was separated from the country, did not receive food and grass. Hao Zhao had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that something happened to Tianshui?
Tianshui is the gateway from Xiliang to Guanzhong. Ma Chao wants to retake it, Han Sui wants to occupy it, Cheng Yin, Yang Qiu and others are also eyeing it. They may send troops to attack at any time. As soon as the war starts, Chencang's grain and grass will not be available. Supply on time.
"General, a letter of arrows has been sent from outside the city!" At this time, a soldier came in holding a letter to report.
"Send it over!"
"No!" The soldier handed over the letter.
Hao Zhao took it with a wry smile. He had already guessed the content of the letter without reading it. It must be Liu Cong who persuaded him to surrender. During this period, Liu Cong did not send troops to attack. His purpose was to defeat the enemy without fighting.
But when he read the letter, he was still shocked.
"The Han army actually captured Tianshui, this"
Hao Zhao originally thought that if there was a war in Tianshui, with the ability of Zhao Yan and Du Xi, there would be no problem in guarding Jieting and Tianshui, but he could no longer transport food to himself. But I didn't expect that both Tianshui and Jieting were lost.
"It's Deng Ai again, crossing Xiaoguan, bypassing Beidi County, and raiding the street pavilions. It's really bold"
The last time Deng Ai climbed over Feihu Mountain, he turned the entire Yuzhou upside down, and almost all the generals of Cao Wei remembered his name.
Hao Zhao suddenly thought that to make such a big circle, he must have started the march a month ago. In other words, when Liu Cong confronted Zhuge Liang at Wuzhangyuan, he had already dispatched Deng Ai's extraordinary force.
The battle for Xicheng has not yet begun, but the next step of planning has already begun. How much confidence does this require?
"It seems that Chencang City has long been regarded as a treasure by Liu Zhoumu!" Hao Zhao put down the letter and shook his head feebly, "Come here, pass on Su Ze!"
"No!"
After a while, deputy general Su Ze came to the county magistrate's house wearing armor.
"General, the general has arrived. What are your orders?"
"Master Wen, Tianshui has been lost!"
"What, Tianshui has been lost? Who took it?" Su Ze was shocked. The road to the east has been cut off. Tianshui is now their only support! "Ma Chao or Han Sui?"
"None of them!" Hao Zhao shook his head, "Deng Ai sent out a surprise force, bypassed Xiaoguan and Beidi County, and attacked Jieting and Tianshui. The two generals Zhao Yan and Du were killed in the battle!"
"This" Su Ze was shocked just now, but now he was stunned.
"Our food and grass are about to run out. It is estimated that General Zhu Ling who has left the customs is in a similar situation to us. Master Wen, what can you do?"
"Ithis" Su Ze's mind was in confusion at this time, what could he do?
"I have decided to surrender to the Han army!" Hao Zhao stared at Su Ze's eyes and said word for word, "Without food and grass, the soldiers will mutiny and the people in the city will suffer. I don't want to see all this!"
"This this alas" Su Ze thought for a moment and sighed, "Without food and grass, and without reinforcements, we have done our utmost to be benevolent and righteous for the King of Wei!"
"Well, send a message to Liu Zhoumu immediately and leave the city and surrender!"
"No!"
After being surrounded by the Han army for more than twenty days, Chencang City finally fell to the ground like a ripe peach.
The city gate opened, and five thousand soldiers and horses exited the city gate in an orderly manner, and then lined up neatly outside the city. Hao Zhao and Su were in armor, without any weapons, holding their helmets in their left hands, at the front of the entire team.
The five thousand troops of the Han army were already waiting here. Liu Cong, Liu Hu, Huang Zhong, and Fazheng were all on horseback. Li Yan had already led his army to Tianshui.
Hao Zhao and Su Ze slowly came to Liu Cong's horse, and then knelt down.
"The surrendered general Hao Zhao (Su Ze) meets with the lord!"
Liu Cong turned over and dismounted, and gave the two men a little help, "Bo Dao, Master Literary, please get up quickly! I have won the two of you, and I am very happy to win Chencang City!"
"Thank you, Lord!" Hao Zhao and Su Ze felt moved in their hearts.
Even in the Wei army, the two of them were only slightly famous, and their lord Liu Cong was able to dismount his horse and help them.It shows that he attaches great importance to it. And when they said this sentence, they could deeply feel the sincerity in their tone. People say that Liu Cong is the wise master of the world, and now the two of them completely believe it.
Liu Hu, Huang Zhong and Fazheng also dismounted and greeted Hao Zhao and Su Ze one by one.
"Bo Dao and Wen Shi are both great talents. If our retreat is not cut off and we have enough food and grass, not to mention that I only have 40,000 troops. Even if I have 100,000, it will be very difficult to capture Chencang!" Liu Cong remembered. He felt very lucky that in previous history, Zhuge Liang's 150,000 troops did not capture Chencang.
"My lord is so flattering!"
"Bo Dao, Zhu Ling is also a great talent. Now that Sanguan's food and grass have been cut off, it has become a dead place. The soldiers in Guanguan are also my subjects. I really can't bear to destroy them. I wonder if I can persuade them to surrender?"
"My lord is kind, and the last general is willing to go to Sanguan, and he will definitely be able to persuade General Zhu Ling to surrender!"
"Okay, then there's Roberto!"
After Hao Zhao went to Sanguan, he finally persuaded Zhu Ling to surrender. At this point, the entire Guanzhong area completely belonged to Liu Cong.
Those officials in Cao Wei will remain in office for the time being. Liu Cong asked Hao Zhao to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to station in Xicheng to prevent Hanzhong soldiers from leaving the Xie Valley. Chencang and Sangguan did not need to station troops and horses for the time being, and then led the rest of the army towards Tianshui.
Five days later, we arrived in Tianshui.
After discussing with Fazheng, it was decided to immediately divide the troops into three groups and march to Xiliang.
On the left, with Deng Ai as commander and Liao Hua, Zhou Cang and Yang Fu as generals, they marched towards Wudu.
On the middle road, Liu Cong personally served as the commander, Fa Zheng served as the military advisor, and Huang Zhong served as the general, marching into Jincheng.
On the right, Li Yan is the commander, Zhu Ling and Su Ze are the generals, and they march towards Wuwei and Zhangye.
Jiang Xu guarded Tianshui and was responsible for escorting grain.
There are 20,000 troops on the middle road and 10,000 troops on the left and right roads. They will set out after three days of repair.
"My Lord, there is a child who wants to see you!" The night before the army set off, Liu Cong was reading in the study of the Tianshui Prefecture, and Liu Hu came in to report.
"Child? Who is he? Why do you want to see me?" Liu Cong put down the book.
"My lord, that boy refuses to say anything, so he wants to see you. He looks smart and smart."
"how old?"
"About thirteen or fourteen years old! If the master is busy, I will chase him away!"
"Since he wants to see me, let him come in!"
"No!"
After a while, Liu Hu led the child to the study room.
"My lord, please see me!" The child's voice was crisp but sonorous, and his salute to Liu Cong was also standard.
"Ha" Liu Cong was amused by him and stared straight at him. This little guy was about the same age as when he first met Deng Ai, but Deng Ai seemed much older than him at that time, and he showed more of a shrewdness.
"May I have your name?"
