Chang'an.
Cao Zhang once again gained the power to lead the army, but this time he was fighting for his brother Cao Pi.
He is more optimistic about his younger brother Cao Zhi, after all, he is more concerned about family ties than Cao Pi.
It is a pity that the person chosen by his father Cao Cao was Cao Pi in the end.
"King Rencheng, you and I are guarding Chang'an this time. It can be said that we shoulder a heavy responsibility."
Jia Xu was so sarcastic that he didn't like working with Cao Zhang.
Cao Pi inherited his father's political wisdom and ruthlessness.
Cao Zhi inherited Cao Cao's poetry, songs, and Jian'an style.
Cao Zhang, on the other hand, was different from his father. He only wanted to be a general who could pacify the frontier fortresses.
"Jia Wenhe, you don't have to say any polite words to me."
"If you can't defend Chang'an, I will definitely be questioned by my brother, but before that, I will definitely kill you!"
Cao Zhanghu opened his eyes slightly, he was definitely not joking.
"King Rencheng, don't worry. As long as General Chencang follows my advice and does not take the initiative to fight the enemy, he will definitely be able to strangle the Han army's offensive line and choke it like a knife in the throat!"
Jia Xu was extremely resourceful, and Cao Cao asked him for advice many times after his reincarnation.
It's a pity that Cao Zhang is different. Instead of believing in the literati's strategies, he believes in the spear in his hand.
When you are guarding Youzhou, the Hu people will not show mercy just because you are the son of Cao Cao.
Cao Zhang's martial arts skills were honed on the battlefield of life and death.
"Jia Wenhe, don't think that Chencang can stop the Han army."
"Just when Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others are setting things up, can't they?"
"Hurry up and order people to defend the city of Chang'an! Where is that old man Zhong Yao?"
The guard general of Chang'an has always been Zhong Yao. Even when Ma Chao led his army to attack, Zhong Yao still resisted the opponent and waited for Cao Cao's support.
"Lord Zhong Yao is patrolling the camp..."
"Jia Wenhe, if you don't go about your business and just wander around like a fly every day, are you bothered?"
Cao Zhang looked at Jia Xu coldly, with a playful look in his eyes.
"King Rencheng, I just want to tell you one thing."
"Chang'an is a matter of life and death for you and me. Now the two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope!"
"I hope King Rencheng can trust me and jointly resist the Han army!"
In this world, the last person who could give Jia Xu such attention was Xun Yu and Xun Lingjun.
It was Xun Yu's existence that made Jia Xu dare not appear in a low-key, stable and dignified manner since he entered Cao Ying.
Now facing Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu felt a little thorn in his back.
"Report! King Rencheng, Chencang has been lost!"
"Fei Yao and Dai Ling surrendered to the Han army, but Wei Ping only led 500 men to fight out!"
Oh shit!
Cao Zhang glared at Jia Xu and said coldly: "Just now, Jia Taiwei said with certainty that Chen Cang can make the Han army have a knife in its throat!"
this……
Jia Xu had trouble saying that he didn't need to think about it. It must have been Fei Yao and others who took the initiative to attack, and then the Han army took advantage of it.
Once Chencang is lost, the Han army's supply line will not be disturbed.
Attacking Chang'an will no longer have any worries.
"Forget it, I will learn from Emperor Wu and try to trust you, a villain!"
Cao Zhang walked into Jia Xu and picked him up, "I have never forgotten the hatred between brother Cao Ang and cousin Anmin!"
Jia Xu felt like he was being stared at by a male lion, and he couldn't help but sweat dripping down his back.
"Bring out all your strategies, I will defend Chang'an on behalf of Emperor Wu!"
After Cao Zhang finished speaking, he left, and Jia Xu continued to sneer.
"All the plots? Even if it takes your head, the prince?"
…
Chang'an, the capital in the west, and Luoyang, the capital in the east, can be said to be the symbol of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Bei never thought that one day he would be able to march to Chang'an.
Zhuge Liang did not let his soldiers attack the city directly, but chose to target the opponent's wheat fields.
"Military advisor, these wheat?"
Liu Bei felt a little sad when he saw that Zhuge Liang sent people to destroy the wheat fields.
Farmers have been working hard for a year, and the wheat is about to mature in one month.
At this juncture, war breaks out again between the two sides, and it will always be the innocent people who suffer.
"Your Majesty, Liang destroyed the wheat fields deliberately."
"If our army attacks Chang'an, we will probably suffer heavy losses."
"Now Liang wants Cao Zhang and Jia Xu to make a choice. Should they retreat to Chang'an and wait for food to be transported from the rear, or make a desperate move and come to fight our army."
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, and his move was considered as hitting the snake seven inches.
The Wei army was already short of food because of Liu Mang's economic war. Now they are buying on a large scale and even trying to rob the Hu people of food and grass.
At least the Chang'an army is waiting for the wheat fields to mature in a month so that they can harvest them to meet their urgent needs.
Now Zhuge Liang's troops were extremely fast and he defeated Chencang, targeting the Wei army's wheat fields.
"In this case, the military advisor will force Cao Zhang and Jia Xu to fight with our army?"
Liu Bei looked at the majestic Chang'an, which was once the capital of the Western Han Dynasty and where the great ancestor Liu Bang established his capital.
Now, his descendants are about to retake the city and continue the glory of the Han Dynasty.
"What my lord said is true. Liang thought that the Wei army would not be able to sit still!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wei general Guo Ang leading three thousand people to drive away the Han army.
In the past, Liu Bei would probably take it very seriously when facing three thousand people.
Nowadays, my family is big and my business is big, but I don’t care at all.
With just a wave of his hand, Ma Chao led the Xiliang cavalry to face the enemy!
Guo Ang held the meteor hammer in his hand and was about to smash it into Ma Chao's face, but saw that the other party took it easily.
"So-and-so is also good at meteor hammers! Hit me with one!"
Ma Chao swung it, and the meteor hammer hit Guo Ang's head. Even if he was wearing a bag, he would not be able to escape death!
Seeing Guo Ang's death, the Wei army was about to escape, but they didn't know that Pang De and Ma Dai were attacking from both sides.
The soldiers of the Wei army fought on their own. Those who were lucky enough to escape into the city survived, but those who were unlucky could only be killed by the Han army.
Cao Zhang was on top of the city tower and could see clearly that these three thousand people were his test of the Han army.
"The horse is here. Even if the king goes there in person, he may not be able to defeat him."
Cao Zhang was well aware of Ma Chao's martial arts.
"King Rencheng! How can you let soldiers go to war at will?"
"Once defeated, it will affect the morale of the defenders in the city."
Zhong Yao frowned. Now that Cao Cao is gone, who can subdue this lion?
"Old man, don't worry. If Liu Bei takes the initiative to attack the city, I will have a way to resist him."
"But now Zhuge Liang is making a fuss around the wheat fields."
"If I don't rescue them, I will let them damage the wheat fields!"
When Cao Zhang was depressed, he discovered that the Han army had changed its mind and no longer destroyed the wheat fields, but chose to protect them!
"King Rencheng, Zhuge Liang is trying to steal our fruit!"
"It's obviously our food, but he has to wait until a month later to finish harvesting it!"
"What a despicable Zhuge Kongming!"
Zhong Yao cursed loudly. He was diligent and loved the people. He knew better than anyone how valuable these wheat fields were.
Now Zhuge Liang is clearly telling Cao Ang, your food now belongs to me!
"Jia Wenhe, can't we go out to fight?"
Jia Xu remained silent and chuckled: "Sure enough, he is exactly the same as Liu Mang. If there is a disciple, there must be a teacher!"
