In two and a half days, the army led by Liu Xiu arrived at Tianhe valley.
The two armies have converged, with nearly 90000 troops.
Among them, Zhao Yun has 30000 troops and Liu Xiu has more than 30000 troops. In addition, he has captured nearly 30000 Hanzhong soldiers, so Liu Xiu's troops are already an extremely powerful force.
Thanks to the capture of Liu Zhang and the capture of Chengdu, Yizhou's granary can be replenished to ensure the adequacy of grain and grass.
In fact, compared with Jingzhou, Yizhou is the real granary.
Since the rise of Huang Jin, Dong Zhuo took charge of Luoyang, Yuan Cao in the North fought, Cao Cao calmed the north, and then Cao Cao went south to attack Jiaozhou. All over the Central Plains, regardless of the north and the south, there have been big and small wars.
Even Jingzhou, a strategic place, has gone through war.
During this period, Yizhou did not experience major wars.
Even if Zhang Lu split Yizhou, it did not cause much impact.
In addition, after Liu Yan took charge of Yizhou, he developed production and attached great importance to agriculture, which also gave Yizhou a relatively stable environment and made the people live and work in peace and contentment. Liu Zhang's son inherited his father's career. Although Liu Zhang was not talented and timid, he was not strict with the people. Therefore, Yizhou has accumulated enough food in recent years. This is also one of the reasons why Liu Bei was able to divide the whole world after he won Yizhou.
Chinese army big account!
Liu Xiu, Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, Lu Su, Huo Jun, Pang Tong, Jia Xu and others were all present.
Zhao Yun said: "Lord, Zhang Lu has been captured alive. Do you want to bring him up?"
Liu Xiu said, "bring it up!"
"No!"
Zhao Yun replied and immediately ordered him to go down.
Soon, Zhang Lu was brought up.
"Kneel down!"
The soldier yelled with a cold face and gave the order directly.
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "you don't have to kneel down, just stand."
When Zhang Lu heard the speech, his eyes showed a touch of gratitude. Anyway, he is also the leader of one side. Even if he is defeated in this war, he has the dignity of the leader of one side.
Liu Xiu's eyes fell on Zhang Lu and said, "is Shijun willing to submit to his official position?"
Zhang Lu said, "I'm willing to surrender!"
At this point, what else can Zhang Lu say? Naturally, it is to submit to Liu Xiu.
Especially through this war, Zhang Lu saw Liu Xiu's sophistication and ruthlessness. First, they formed an alliance, then framed Yang Song, and finally calculated him. Step by step plan, every step count him dead.
Under such circumstances, how can he be Liu Xiu's opponent?
Liu Xiu had a smile on his face and said, "good!"
After a pause, Liu Xiu said, "don't worry, Shijun. After our official calms Hanzhong, we will let Shijun and his family join. Then, Shijun and his family will be officials in Xiangyang. "
Zhang Lu said: "I will follow Liu Jingzhou's arrangement."
After losing to Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu couldn't let him stay in Hanzhong. He would definitely take him to Xiangyang.
Such results are expected.
Zhang Lu said: "Liu Jingzhou, I still have one more thing to ask for Liu Jingzhou's permission."
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "you say it!"
Zhang Lu said: "Yan Pu, a counselor under his command, is outstanding in learning. He is not only good at internal affairs, but also good at leading soldiers in war. He followed me before, so we can't give full play to it. Now I'm going back to Liu Jingzhou, and I'm going back to the fields. Therefore, I hope Liu Jingzhou can give him an opportunity, not just because he has followed me
When Zhang Lu thought of the desperate situation, Yan Pu said he was willing to die with him, so he felt that he could not fail Yan Pu.
Therefore, Zhang Lu put forward suggestions.
Liu Xiu said: "master, don't worry. I will arrange Yanpu properly."
Liu Xiu also knows something about Yan Pu. In history, Yan Pu followed Zhang Lu to surrender to Cao Cao and became a marquis. Later, Cao Pi succeeded to the throne and attached great importance to Yan Pu.
Liu Xiu will not miss such talents.
In fact, there are many talents under Liu Xiu's command.
Up to now, Liu Xiu's talent counselors include Pang Tong, Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Lu Su, Ma Su, Ma Liang, FA Zheng, Zhang song, Huo Jun, and his military generals include Huang Zhong, Huang Hu, Sha Moke, Zhao Yun, Wen pin, Wei Yan, Zhang Ren, Chen Zhi, Tai Shici, etc.
In addition, it does not include Pang Degong, Zhang Zhongjing and others.
Relatively speaking, there are a lot of talents.
However, Liu Xiu knew that compared with Cao Cao, his talents were far from enough. These talents are not enough to compete with and govern the world.
Liu Xiu dealt with Zhang Lu's affairs and asked people to take him down.
Zhao Yun took the initiative to say: "Lord, the battle of Yizhou is over. With Zhang Lu in hand, Hanzhong is certainly not a problem. Will the third army under the general continue to participate in this war? "
In Zhao Yun's view, it was not appropriate for the eight or nine thousand troops to rush to Hanzhong together.
This is a waste.Chen Dao also nodded slightly and said, "Lord, the last general agrees with General Zhao. Now that Zhang Lu is captured, there is an army of wenpin general in Hanzhong, and an army of Zhang Ren general in Nanyang County. Will the humble Sixth Army continue to fight? "
After listening to their suggestions, Liu Xiu also fell into thinking.
Pang Tong said: "my Lord, I agree with the suggestions of General Zhao and General Chen. At present, it is no longer necessary to lead tens of thousands of troops forward. We just need to dress lightly and go north to join wenpin. Zhang Lu alone is worth tens of thousands of troops. "
Jia Xu also said: "I also agree with you!"
They all nodded their heads.
Liu Xiu considered the opinions of the people and the current situation of the war. He really didn't need so many troops, so he nodded and said, "yes, Zhao Yun and Chen Dao will lead their troops back to the camp."
Lu Su said, "how can the Lord arrange the tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers?"
Lu Su was worried about tens of thousands of Hanzhong soldiers.
In case of mutiny, it would be dangerous.
Liu Xiu said with a smile: "first, I have Zhang Lu in my hand, and they dare not act rashly; second, Huang Hu and shamoko have their own troops in the town, even if the Hanzhong army has tens of thousands of prisoners, they are not afraid; third, they all know that Hanzhong has been attacked."
"Three reasons, no one dares to act rashly."
"So Zijing doesn't have to worry."
Liu Xiu had a smile and a confident look on his face.
Under the trend of the times, he did not believe that the soldiers of Hanzhong army dared to rebel.
Lu Su nodded: "my Lord is wise!"
Liu Xiu arranged other things, determined the situation of Zhao Yun and Chen Dao's respective armies, and finally said: "all the achievements and contributions of this war are recorded in the book. After the end of the war, I will give you a unified reward. At the same time, as the chief general, as the chief of an army, you can also carry out internal rewards. "
"No!"
When Zhao Yun and Chen Dao heard the speech, they were both happy.
For the soldiers in the army, on the one hand, they are willing to fight for training; on the other hand, only fighting can make contributions and gain benefits.
Half a day later, Liu Xiu sent Zhao Yun and Chen Dao away one after another.
The two men left with their respective armies, and then there were nearly 60000 fewer in the army.
Only Huang Hu, Sha Moke and Deng Zhan were left in the army. Liu Xiu asked the three men to select soldiers from the captives and add them to their respective troops to make up for their previous losses.
Then, about the prisoners in the army, Liu Xiu began to release them.
Among them, the unqualified soldiers were all given some money and food, and all the soldiers were released. After all this, except for Huang Hu, Sha Moke and Deng Zhan, only 3000 elite soldiers were left, and most of the other soldiers were released.
Liu Xiu led the army to continue to set out, heading for Hanzhong county.
At the end of June, the army led by Liu Xiu entered Baishui County, passing through baishuiguan, and went to Mianyang County, which is bordered by Hanzhong army and Guanghan county. As long as you arrive in Mianyang County, it's not far from Nanzheng County, Hanzhong county.
In early July, Liu Xiu and his party arrived in Mianyang county.
When the troops arrived, soldiers from the border came to meet them, who were distinguished by wenpin soldiers. When Liu Xiu inquired about the specific situation, he knew that wenpin had captured Nanzheng County, and in a short time, Hanzhong county was in his hands.
In this way, the whole Yizhou is under the control of Liu Xiu.
