Seeing that he could not capture Deng Ai in his haste, Yang Ren suddenly ordered the rear troops to charge into the formation when he was returning to the formation. Then the hundreds of Hanzhong cavalry moved like a torrent in the mountains.
There was no chance of winning in a single fight, but Yang Ren didn't think there was anything wrong with using the superiority of the total force to suppress them.
Deng Ai didn't panic when he saw this. He took the lead and waved his spear to block the front, and attacked with the cavalry behind him. The sound of fighting instantly sounded in the valley.
The mountain road between Yangping Pass and Jiameng Pass was dug along the mountain stream and river valley. Due to the very narrow road and the restricted fighting area, the cavalry of both sides could not set up their positions at all, so although Yang Ren had slightly more troops , but it cannot take advantage.
The cavalry from both sides were jammed together, and only a dozen people at the front could fight, as if there was a traffic jam on a one-way road in the countryside.
"How would General Pang handle this situation?" Song Chen, who was watching the battle, asked curiously.
Pang De didn't take it seriously and said: "Why should we be afraid of a few hundred people? If we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. Pang will definitely fight and drive away the opponent."
Song Chen said to himself: "I don't know what Shizai will plan. Although his military bravery is pretty good, it is still far behind generals such as General Guan, General Zhang, and even General Gan..."
At this time, the fire leader in charge of the suspected soldiers blew his whistle, and dozens of flags on the hillside suddenly fluttered in the wind. The sound of shouting and shouting echoed in the valley, as if thousands of troops were coming.
The sudden change caused some commotion in Hanzhong's team at the foot of the mountain, and the calm reaction of Deng Ai's cavalry was in sharp contrast to the other party.
"You've fallen into the trap, retreat quickly..." Yang Ren grabbed the horse's reins and turned around to retreat.
"Follow me." Deng Ai shouted.
The 'blockage' in the valley immediately started to move like opening a floodgate to release water because one party changed direction. Deng Ai's cavalry pursuit was also limited by the terrain and could not cause much damage to Yang Ren's troops.
The aimless pursuit of Pound before turned into an escape towards Yangping Pass. The Hanzhong cavalry felt that the horses were actually running faster.
Deng Ai's pursuit came to an abrupt end when it reached an obstacle. Yang Ren did not have time to clear the rocks on the road. As a result, the horses tripped due to the crowding while running. More than thirty unlucky ones were thrown to the ground, which completely blocked Deng Ai's pursuit. path of.
Easily repelling the pursuing Yang Ren, Deng Ai cleared the battlefield and led the army back. Song Chen, Pang De and the suspected soldiers were waiting at the foot of the mountain.
"Thank you two generals for holding the battle for me." Deng Ai cupped his fists and politely thanked him.
Song Chen and Pang De looked at each other and smiled, then clasped their fists and returned the greeting: "Shi Zai is brave and resourceful. He is worthy of being your disciple. He will be pleased to know this."
"Ashamed, ashamed. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. We'd better set off first..." Deng Ai nodded.
"Very good." Song Chen and Pang De replied at the same time.
Afterwards, everyone had an unobstructed journey. They met Huo Jun's reinforcements on the way south to Jiameng Pass, and those Xiliang soldiers finally felt that they were out of the sea of suffering.
From the time they fled at Shangyuan night to the time they finally arrived at Jiameng Pass, the Xiliang soldiers were too exhausted to move due to lack of rest.
According to Lan Tian's wishes, Deng Ai warmly entertained the Xiliang soldiers who had escaped from Hanzhong. Many of the new Dengzhuang farmers who entered Shu learned good cooking skills. Pang Rou and Pang De had delicious meals here. , Thinking of what happened in Hanzhong is like heaven and earth.
While Pang De and others were resting in Jiameng Pass, Huo Jun, the governor of Zitong, sent a letter to Chengdu on flying horses to decide whether to send the Xiliang cavalry to Chengdu or to Ma Chao. Neither Huo Jun nor Deng Ai dared to make any decisions.
After Liu Bei occupied Yizhou, he reused Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Pang Tong, Huang Quan, Li Yan and other people from Jingzhou and Yizhou. Because the interests were distributed more reasonably and these people had outstanding abilities and sound governance, the overall situation in Shu was stable and improving. development trend.
The situation in Yizhou at this time was similar to that of Liu Zhang's period. Liu Bei's main control area was still the central part of Yizhou, and the Hanzhong area in the north and the barbarian area in the south were still not under actual control.
The mountains in Hanzhong in the north are high and dangerous, which is the only way out of the Central Plains in the north. The mountains in the south are sparsely populated and difficult to navigate. It will take time to completely complete the unification of Yizhou.
Fazheng, Pang Tong, and Huang Quan all suggested the use of military means, but the transportation of grain and grass to the two places was a big problem. Yizhou was currently developing stably and resuming production, and was not suitable for large-scale foreign operations. Zhuge Liang thought that it was better to attack the enemy with troops. For the best.
In the first month of the first month, when the chill in Chengdu was still lingering, Liu Bei cooked meat in a pot at General Zuo's Mansion and discussed government affairs in various places with important officials in Jingzhou and Yizhou. Lantian's drastic reforms in Jiaozhou aroused great interest from everyone, and even dissatisfaction from some people.
Lantian set up a Montessori school in Jiaozhou and appointed a large number of children from poor families in Guizhou as officials. Although these official positions were not important, they were inconsistent with the current inspection and filial piety. Liu Ba was under great pressure to advise Liu Bei, hoping that he could Curb Lantian's crazy behavior, otherwise it will shake the laws of the ancestors.
Liu Ba was from Haoyang, Lingling County. He came from a family of officials. His grandfather Liu Yao had been the prefect of Cangwu. However, these two places were now under the rule of Lantian, so he had a great prejudice against Lantian.
Although Liu Ba's advice was mainly selfish, he was erudite, simple and aloof, and had no personal relationships. This kind of arrogant character destined to have few friends.
This time kE*ns om Zhang Si. In the Han Dynasty, it was very elegant to sleep with friends, and it was a symbol of the close relationship between the two. Zhang Fei admired his talent and invited Liu Ba to sleep on the same bed with him, but Liu Ba declined politely without saying a word.
"Military advisor, what do you think?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.
All the ministers in the palace came from aristocratic families, and would have originally opposed Lan Tian because of the interests of the nobles. However, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and Lan Tian had an unusual relationship. Fazheng, Huang Quan and others got along with Liu Bei on weekdays, and knew that Lan Tian had a high importance in their hearts, so Even if I object in my heart, I won't say it out loud.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I think Zi Chu's words are serious. What you are talking about was done in the prosperous times. It is understandable to use some heavy codes in the troubled times. Besides, if it weren't for Ziyu's plan, Jiaozhou would have fallen into the hands of Sun Quan, and Jingnan would have fallen into the hands of Sun Quan." The four counties may have lost a lot. In order to develop Lingnan, Liang thinks it is reasonable to take some new measures..."
Liu Ba argued: "General Lan has made great contributions to the establishment, but how can the merits and demerits be balanced? Furthermore, he built a new city in Panyu, which is not at all an attitude of recuperating with the people, and it is said that the city of Guangzhou is larger than Chang'an, so The trespassing of the lord must be investigated..."
Control the big one and control the owl. Liu Bei replied calmly: "Ziyu has learned a lot, and what he thinks is beyond the reach of others. The Yangtze River Newspaper and Military Workshop he set up in Quanling are all new things that have not been seen in our ancestors. I think they have more advantages than disadvantages. Why should Zichu worry about the small elementary school? In addition, I have already known that the Wuxi barbarians from Samoko participated in the construction of Guangzhou City, and there was no recruitment of civilians to affect production. "
"Building schools wantonly will be frowned upon by the world's noble families, and will be of no use to the lord's progress in the world. Although Guangzhou City has not drafted civilians, the food and clothing expenses will also consume the state and county's financial resources. General Lan is really not suitable for such enjoyment..." Liu Tomoe still didn't give up.
