Chapter 1321

    After the news that Zhang Ying broke Xianbei, Bai Xiaowen was prompted to complete the "main task 2 of great unification: consolidating the north".


    Bai Xiaowen chooses to submit the task.


    Although the second unified main line is not as difficult as the first to defeat Cao Cao, it takes longer to delay.


    It took Bai Xiaowen more than ten days to defeat Ma Chao; It also took more than ten days to recruit Zhang Yan and recruit Hu people. In total, it was almost a month.


    Although so far, the unification process has been very smooth, and he has accumulated about 40 days of free exploration time, Bai Xiaowen still dare not slack off.


    After all, these two unified tasks are quite special.


    Cao Cao had the magnanimity of a hero and could afford to put it down. Knowing that he had no hope of seizing the world, he entrusted Bai Xiaowen with his ambition of unification. A last letter saved Bai Xiaowen a lot of time to clean up the mess. It was able to consolidate the rule of Henan states as soon as possible. It took only more than ten days to finish it.


    As for Ma Chao, Camille, a senior spy, can be defeated quickly.


    If such special circumstances do not occur, the combined time of these two unified tasks may not be less than two months.


    Bai Xiaowen convened the civil and military again to formulate national policies.


    Xun Yu was ill and did not attend. This is also a sign that Xun Yu gradually moved away from the ruling center of Bai Xiaowen.


    Bai Xiaowen cherished Xun Yu''s talent. After Xun Yu fell ill, he asked a famous doctor for treatment and rehabilitation. However, Bai Xiaowen can only do this. He can''t reverse Xun Yu''s thought and let him give advice for his becoming king and Emperor.


    So far, Xun Yu''s "Wang Zuo" Lord skill is still playing a role, and Bai Xiaowen is thankful.


    At this meeting, the advisers had a dispute over the next strategic goal.


    Some people say that we should attack Jingzhou first, go down to the south of the Yangtze River, and then map the East and West rivers (West Sichuan is Yizhou, East Sichuan is Hanzhong).


    The reason is that the terrain of Jingzhou is relatively simple and easy to fall. Hanzhong and Yizhou have complex terrain and rugged mountain roads, which are not conducive to the army. If they are forced to levy, they will get twice the result with half the effort.


    This statement is also reasonable.


    However, Tian Feng put forward the opposite opinion:


    "Yan Gong should take two rivers first for three reasons.


    "First, the temporary reconciliation between Jiangdong sun CE and Jingzhou Liu Cong must be due to the fear of our army going south. If our army makes an urgent attack, sun Liu will join forces, which is quite difficult; if our army slows down, sun Liu will inevitably change internally.


    "Second, the crusade against the enemy country depends not on whether the terrain is dangerous or whether the mountain road is rugged, but on whether the people and masters of the enemy country are wise and whether the monarchs and ministers are united. It is needless to say that Jiangdong sun CE also has the assistance of Liu Bei. They are wise masters and work together. Zhang Lu in the middle of Han Dynasty has few soldiers, and Liu Zhang in Yizhou is a weak and incompetent master, so it is not difficult to take it.


    "Third, Ma Chao, the general who subdued him, sharpened his knife and thought day and night, wanted to capture Hanzhong and ask Zhang Lu for guilt. Since Yan Gong has promised, he can''t break his promise; moreover, if he drives Ma Chao to swallow Zhang Lu, our army can reap profits regardless of victory or defeat."


    Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "Duke Tian''s words are really the theory of gold and stone. The solitary intention has been decided. Slow down the south of the Yangtze River and take the two rivers first."


    After Bai Xiaowen finished this sentence, a message came from the Lingjie rule prompt message:


    "The main task of great unification 3: win longwangshu, open."


    "Mission objective: to obtain the actual domination of Hanzhong and Yizhou."


    "You''ve got 30 days of free exploration."


    The actual ruling power refers not only to the apparent surrender of Liangchuan, but also to the real subordination, which is included in Bai Xiaowen''s imperial territory.


    Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes slightly. This unified main task 3 is so easy to trigger?


    In any case, Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu are not as good as Ma Chao, Hu people and bandits, nor as good as Cao''s group.


    But now that it''s triggered, Bai Xiaowen doesn''t think much.


    He immediately gave orders to general Chenglie, Ma Chao, to send 10000 elite soldiers as vanguards to Hanzhong. Ma Dai, Ma Xiu, Ma tie, Ma Yunlu and other children of Ma also went to war with the vanguard army.


    Bai Xiaowen led the army by himself, made some preparations, and set out for the expedition three days later.


    This time, Bai Xiaowen still didn''t lead too many troops, only 50000 elite soldiers. In addition, he sent two Lord level generals, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, to garrison Yuzhou and guard against the changes of sun and Liu in Jing and Yang.


    Ma Chao was pressed on the bench by Bai Xiaowen and sat on the bench for half a month. It can be said that he has been depressed for a long time.


    Now I finally had the chance to play. Naturally, I was impatient and ordered the whole army to go all the way to Hanzhong.


    ……


    Zhang Lu in Hanzhong was alarmed when he heard the news of the Imperial Army''s expedition, so he called his subordinates to discuss.


    Under Zhang Lu, there are Yan Pu and Yang Song as literary ministers, Yang ang and Yang Ren as military generals, with average strength. Only Yang Ren is a rare leader level military general.


    In addition, Zhang Lu has a younger brother, Zhang Wei, who also enjoys great prestige in Hanzhong. Many times, Zhang Lu has to consider Zhang Wei''s opinions when making decisions.


    After hearing that Bai Xiaowen was honored as the Duke of the state of Yan by the imperial court, he did not follow the trend of entering the court, praised and worshipped his name, and took his sword and shoes to the temple, Zhang Lu was worried and wondered how to protect the Han Dynasty.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Lu actually thought of establishing himself as the "king of Hanning" and sealing the military general of Wen Chen to compete with Bai Xiaowen.


    It can be seen that Zhang Lu is also a real man. He really thinks he is king. If he presses Bai Xiaowen on the title, he can beat Bai Xiaowen?


    Before Zhang Lu could stand on his own, his generals were startled first.


    Yan Pu, a scholar, urged Zhang Lu to find a way to annex Liu Zhang, occupy the land of two rivers, and then become king.


    Zhang Lu thought it was reasonable, so he put aside the idea of self-reliance for the time being.


    Yizhou, Liu Zhang, and Zhang Luna are enemies of extermination. In terms of territory, Liu Zhang''s territory is several times that of Zhang Lu! The reason why he has not been able to win Zhang Lu is that Liu Zhang is too weak and his civil and military thoughts are not uniform.


    However, the relationship between the two countries is still extremely bad.


    Both public and private, Zhang and Lu want to kill Liu Zhang.


    But Yizhou is easier to defend than attack, and Zhang Lu''s strength is not good, and the thunder and rain are small.


    Before Zhang Lu made any progress, new news came.


    Yuan Xi, the Duke of the state of Yan, calmed the northern Wuhuan and other tribes, incorporated Zhang Yan, and completely consolidated the whole territory of the north; He also appointed General Ma Chao as the vanguard to kill Hanzhong!


    Zhang Lu panicked and said, "why don''t we go down?"


    Yan Pu, the literary minister under Zhang Lu''s account, was silent. Yang Song nodded and said, "I''ve heard of the benevolence of Lord Yan for a long time, and I''ve always been kind to the generals. Lord, with the strength of one county, fighting against the army of Lord Yan is like a mantis in a cart. It''s better to fall early, and maybe I can get the position of marquis."


    Zhang Wei scolded, "you can surrender. My brother is the Lord of Hanzhong. How can you be compatible after surrendering to Yuan Xi? He will be killed. Don''t worry, brother. Hanzhong is very dangerous. My brother took two generals Yang ang and Yang Ren to guard Yangping pass. Even if Yuan Xi had a million troops, he would never leap over."
