The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 425
After a sleepless night, Zhang Fei kept thinking about Fazheng's suggestion. Although this move was too dangerous, what Fazheng said was not unreasonable.Looking at the location marked by Zitong on the map in front of him, Zhang Fei fell into deep thought again.

Zitong is adjacent to Zilin in the east and Tongshui in the west. Sima Xiangru in the Han Dynasty used to be an official here, so Zitong is also called Changqing.

After passing Zitong, the front is the Chengdu Plain of Yizhou Tianfu, which is fertile and thousands of miles away.Therefore, Zitong is the last place in Yizhou that can be defended by geographical advantages.

If Jiange is the throat of Yizhou, then Zitong is the gateway of Yizhou!

The Jiange is lost, and Yizhou is in danger!
Zitong is lost, and Yizhou is dead.

This shows the importance of Zitong, doesn't Liu Daer know the pros and cons of it?
Conspiracy or conspiracy?

Zhang Fei's brain started to function quickly, but such a question was really difficult for him.After a night of thinking, Zhang Fei, who had two panda eyes, still couldn't figure out the reason.

"Afraid of his mother! My lord once said, if there is no opening, then there will be opening!" Suddenly, Zhang Fei slapped his thigh and suddenly came to his senses.

"What about Yizhou, what about Liu Daer, this kid Fazheng is immoral, and he didn't speak clearly. Who did the Youzhou Army fear?"

Ma Chao, who had just entered the county office, was startled by such a loud voice.

"Brother Yide, what kind of anger is this?"

Hearing Ma Chao's voice, Zhang Fei turned around and stood for the whole night unknowingly, his movements somewhat stiff, especially with two dark circles under his eyes.

"Pfft. Hahaha."

Ma Chao looked at Zhang Fei's antics and his pair of panda eyes, he couldn't hold back, he covered his stomach and burst out laughing.

If someone else laughed, the consequences can be imagined, but facing Ma Chao, Zhang Fei was not at all annoyed.Who made himself owe the other party a favor!

Of course, this was just a small episode. After breakfast, Zhang Fei called everyone to discuss the matter of marching into Chengdu.

"Everyone, the door of Chengdu is wide open now, and there is no danger to defend after Zitong, and the front is a fertile plain thousands of miles away, which is suitable for Youzhou cavalry to fight!" Zhang Fei paused at this point, and secretly took a few glances at Do generals.

After the army broke through the Jiange Pass, Ma Teng led his troops back to Xiliang, leaving behind Ma Chao, Ma Dai and a small number of cavalry, symbolically serving as friendly support for the battle.

Everyone knew that Zhang Fei was the main general in the battle of Yizhou, so after listening to Ma Chao's suggestion, Ma Teng happily returned to Xiliang to prepare his daughter's dowry.

Who is Zhao Yun? He is one of the famous generals in Youzhou. If the dowry is missing, where will Ma Teng put his old face?All of this is not something that juniors should worry about.

"The last general, Ma Dai, is willing to be the vanguard!" Ma Dai still couldn't hold back, and was the first to jump out.

Although he won Zitong, he didn't take any action in this battle, and the defenders were persuaded by Fazheng to disperse.I have come all the way from afar, so I can't do nothing!

Zhang Fei turned his head to look at Ma Chao, for a moment he didn't move his thoughts, Zhang Fei couldn't help admiring his calm demeanor.Is this still Xiliang Brocade Horse Super League?The Lord can really torture people
"Report! The lord will order!"

Just when Zhang Fei was about to speak, a scout rushed in to report.

Since Zhang Fei dispatched troops, Huo Yu has never intervened. Why did the general order come this time?Everyone present was at a loss, even Fazheng frowned.

"Ah..." After reading the order, Zhang Fei subconsciously said, and then handed the letter to Fazheng.

"Xiaozhi, have you seen this thing before?"

"General, I have heard of this thing, but it is not easy to catch!"

Listening to the conversation between Zhang Fei and Fazheng, Ma Chao was at a loss, "This thing"? "It's not easy to catch"?
However, Huo Yu's general order did not affect the march into Chengdu.In the end, Zhang Fei ordered Ma Chao to be the chief general, and Ma Dai to lead all the cavalry to Fu County as the deputy general.

"Wang Ping!"

"The end is here!"

"I'll leave this to you!" Without saying a word, Zhang Fei stuffed the letter in his hand to Wang Ping, and hurried away with Fazheng, leaving only Wang Ping who was still in a daze with a puzzled expression on his face.

In a blink of an eye, a few days later!Zhang Fei led the army and walked slowly. Most of what he got in the past few days was the good news from Ma Chao in front. As Fazheng expected, the whole Yizhou was in chaos because of the loss of Zitong.

On the one hand, Liu Zhang was controlled and Yizhou was divided.On the other hand, it is the prestige of Youzhou's iron cavalry. Up to now, Daer Liu's army has never been out of Chengdu, and Liu Zhang has not issued a clear order for war or peace.

This move directly caused all the officials along the way to be at a loss.Even Yan Yan and Zhang Ren, the famous Yizhou generals, surrendered, and they couldn't win the battle, so it would be better to just leave.

This is really cheap for Ma Chao and Ma Dai, all the way west is like entering no one's land!
On the first day of the march, a scout in a hurry sent news from Fu County that Ma Chao and Ma Dai had conquered Fu County.

No, to be precise, Fu County was occupied. The city guards fled before the Youzhou cavalry appeared, and Ma Chao only left a small group of cavalry to defend Fu County. The rest of the cavalry continued to head towards Mianzhu without stopping!

"I can't wait any longer! The day lily will be cold if this continues!" Zhang Fei said hastily after hearing the scout's report.

On the one hand, Ma Chao's hurricane all the way, on the other hand, the follow-up pawns are at every step.If this continues, if the grain road is cut off, problems will arise sooner or later.At this time, Fazheng also began to regret. If Ma Chao's cavalry made a mistake, he would ruin his future.

The infantry of the Youzhou army was not just bragging. Although they did not move as fast as the cavalry, in Fazheng's eyes, they were many times stronger than the infantry of Yizhou.

Two days later, in Fu County!

Zhang Fei turned around and looked around the city.Like Zitong, the city is not big, and the city walls are fairly strong. If you stick to it, you can fight.

It's just that the people in Yizhou were panicked at this time, and because of the might of Youzhou's army, no one since Yan Yan and Zhang Ren dared to challenge.

Night falls!

An Yuwei's message was sent to Zhang Fei on time. It turned out that it wasn't that Liu Bei did nothing, but that An Yuwei intercepted and killed all the messengers from Chengdu in private.It wasn't until Ma Chao appeared under Mianzhu City that Liu Bei got the news.

"Ma Dai can have a good fight now!" After reading the information, Zhang Fei handed it to Fazheng.

When Fazheng looked at the information of An Yuwei in his hand, he was surprised and amazed by the stormy sea.

"Fortunately, I didn't become an enemy of the lord!" Fazheng sighed in his heart.

At this time, the city gates of Mianzhu had already been closed.The general defending the city is none other than Wei Yan!

A few days ago, Liu Bei noticed something strange, and then sent Wei Yanwang to visit Mianzhu.Who would have thought that Wei Yan had just entered the city at noon that day, and Ma Chao would come with an army in the afternoon.

"Brother, let's attack the city!" Ma Dai was eager to try, but now he found a chance to vent his anger.

"No! Mianzhu has obviously strengthened its defenses, and the cavalry attack is really the next step. We still have to wait for General Zhang to arrive."

"But" Ma Dai wanted to say something but Ma Chao gave him a hard look.

At the head of Mianyang city, a big flag with Wei characters flutters in the wind. This army is a mixed army of more than [-] people!Originally planned to rush into the city in one go, and attack Mianzhu in one fell swoop, but whoever thought that was repelled by a rain of arrows, and dozens of people were lost.
