    When Zhuge Liang occupied the entire city of Shanggui, he knew that Xia Houyuan still escaped.

    When Huang Zhong got the news, he was very sorry.

    ¡°It¡¯s such a pity that Xia Houyuan escaped!¡±

    "Han Sheng doesn't have to be like this! Although Xia Houyuan escaped, there is no longer any threat."

    Under the persuasion of Zhuge Liang on the side, Huang Zhong finally no longer regretted it.

    "Afterwards, Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said: "Although Xia Houyuan was able to escape to Shanggui, it may not be that simple to go back to see Cao Cao.

    The surrounding cities have long belonged to us, but I want to see where he can run to?  "

    "Prime Minister, I am willing to pursue Xia Houyuan and capture him alive and offer him to Your Majesty!"

    Zhang He heard what Zhuge Liang meant and immediately volunteered.

    Huang Zhong finally realized what he was doing and quickly volunteered.

    Looking at the performance of the two generals, Zhuge Liang smiled softly and said: "Since the two generals want to make contributions, I can't refuse.

    Zhang He, your 50,000-strong army and I will march westward to pursue Xiahou Yuan.  Even if Xia Houyuan cannot be captured, we must strive to capture the entire Longxi County!  "

    "Here!" Upon hearing this, Zhang He stepped forward to take the command arrow with excitement and kept it carefully.

    Huang Zhong looked regretful and envious when he saw Zhuge Liang handing over this task to Zhang He.

    Zhuge Liang naturally saw Huang Zhong¡¯s thoughts at a glance.

    He said with a smile: "Old General Huang, there is no need to be so sorry! There are opportunities to make great achievements, although I cannot pursue Xia Houyuan.

    But there is still a chance!  "

    Huang Zhong was a little excited at first, but then he dimmed.

    The biggest fish now is Xia Houyuan. If you can't catch Xia Houyuan, what's the point of other miscellaneous fish generals?

    So he couldn't help but complain: "The big fish have run away, what's the point of the trash fish?"

    "Hahahaha!" Zhuge Liang laughed when he heard this.

    "You, are you making fun of me, Huang Zhong?" Huang Zhong didn't receive the mission in the first place, but now that he was laughed at by Zhuge Liang, he was naturally a little emotional.

    After Zhuge Liang finished laughing, he waved his hand and said, "General Huang, don't get me wrong. That's not what I meant.

    The reason why I was laughing just now is because General Huang¡¯s vision is too narrow and he has been staring at this three-acre land in Shanggui.

    If Xia Houyuan is considered a big fish, I would like to ask General Huang, then who should Liu Bei be considered?  "

    When Huang Zhong heard this, he was instantly shocked, and then his face showed ecstasy.

    "According to Chencang, Liu Bei's main army has arrived in Hanzhong and will soon join Zhang Fei at Dasanguan.

    Started to launch a general attack on Dashan Pass.  Therefore, His Majesty ordered me to wait while the other party's attention is on Dasanguan.

    Go south as quickly as possible to seize Wudu County, then threaten Hanzhong from west to east and cut off the connection between Hanzhong and Dashan Pass.

    If this plan is successful, Liu Bei can be captured alive in one battle, but the disaster in Yizhou will be completely solved.

    ????????????????? I wonder if such merit is considered a meritorious service?  "

    "Forget it! Forget it! Thanks to the Prime Minister's clear words, I suddenly understood! If the Prime Minister has any orders, just give them!"

    Huang Zhong was finally convinced by Zhuge Liang, and then stated that he would fully implement it.

    Zhuge Liang was not polite and gave the order directly.

    "Huang Zhong listens to the order. I will also give you 50,000 troops and horses. We will set off southward today and enter Wudu County via Rongqiu.

    Occupy the entire Wudu County in the shortest possible time and cut off the connection between the old route and Hanzhong.  "

    "The last general takes command!"

    While Zhuge Liang was making next arrangements, Xia Houyuan on the other side had also fled westward in embarrassment.

    Finally, after traveling through the mountains and forests and passing through Shehu Valley, we discovered a problem that troubled the army as they continued to move forward.

    That means there is insufficient food and grass.

    Originally, when Xia Houyuan escaped from Shanggui City, he did not carry much food and grass.

    The consumption during this period has made the already small grain reserves even more stretched.

    "Father, there is only enough food left for our army for two days. This small amount of food is not enough to support our return to Jincheng!"

    Xia Houyuan waved his hand, indicating that he already knew.

    In fact, he is worried about this matter now.

    After the defeat at Shanggui, Xiahou Yuan no longer had the confidence to continue fighting, and just wanted to return to Jin Dynasty.?.

    However, the shortage of food and grass cast a shadow over this trip.

    "Father, we are going to be gathering together at home, why don't we go to the county town to borrow some food?"

    "Don't be impulsive. The reason why we have been taking small roads along the way is because the surrounding big cities have been occupied by the other side.

    ??Maybe this Luomenju is among them. Now that it has passed, wouldn't it be like falling into a trap?  "

    Xia Houyuan was already in a state of turmoil, and the trees and grass were all under attack.

    This is not to say that he is afraid, but that he does not want to cause trouble again.

    But Xiahou Ba always insisted and with constant lobbying, Xiahou Yuan had no choice but to agree to send him there.

    After Xiahouba led a hundred sergeants slowly to the gate of Luomenju City, he immediately shouted loudly: "Defenders on the city, open the city gate quickly!"

    After shouting three times, a figure appeared on the wall and looked down cautiously.

    Seeing this, Xiahou Ba said impatiently: "Don't look at it, I only have so many people, and I can't eat you!"

    After seeing this, the defender finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "May I ask who the general is? What do you mean by coming to our city?"

    "You don't have to worry about who I am, I have urgent military matters and I want to borrow 200 shi from you! Hurry up and get it ready!"

    Hearing this, the defenders quickly excused themselves from not being able to make the decision and went to ask the county magistrate.

    After a while, a middle-aged man arrived at the top of the city. It was Chen Zhong, the magistrate of Luomenju County.

    "However, although this man's name is Chen Zhong, he has no sense of loyalty at all.

    As soon as Liang Xu's army arrived, they opened the door and dedicated the city. Now they have surrendered to Liang Xu.

    It¡¯s just that Xiahou Ba didn¡¯t know it yet and mistakenly thought that the other party was still loyal to King Wei.

    So after seeing Chen Zhong, he immediately shouted loudly: "Chen Zhong, please donate two hundred shi of rice quickly, there will be an urgent task of 100,000 yuan!"

    Chen Zhong was about to refuse, but Liang Xu behind him whispered: "It seems that the other party is not aware of the changes here. Why not introduce him into the city and plan to capture him alive?"

    Therefore, Chen Zhong immediately put on a flattering posture and said: "It turns out to be a young general! I am disrespectful and disrespectful when I fail to respond far away.

    ??Hurry open the city gate and invite the young general to enter the city!  "

    "No!" Xiahou Ba waved his hand and refused: "I have military orders and it is difficult to enter the city. Please send all the rice as quickly as possible!"

    Chen Zhong said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Little general, this county is poor and the people are poor. We are not rich to begin with, so we can't afford so much at one time.

    How about asking the young general to wait for a while, and I can get together with a few wealthy households.

    But it takes such a long time. If the general keeps waiting outside the city, the subordinates will not be able to bear it, so they should go to the city to rest for a while!  "(Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
