The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 505 Two Ways
"Mr. Ziming sent two groups of troops, which is the key to seizing Yizhou." Zhuge Liang had a confident face, because he really admired Chen Ziming.

When Huang Zhong heard this, he was shocked and said: "The prime minister also sent other troops to attack Yizhou, why haven't I heard of it?"

It stands to reason that there are other soldiers and horses attacking Yizhou. Huang Zhong, the commander of the army, should know that, after all, he is the main force to attack Yizhou.

"It's not a large army, counting people's ears." Zhuge Liang explained: "The Cheng believes in the middle saying, and sent Ma Chao and Midang out of Liangzhou to the west of Yizhou. If there is no accident, when we wait for the army to enter Yizhou, there should be The reinforcements are here."

"West of Yizhou?" Huang Zhong thought for a while, then said, "Di Clan?"

"Wonderful, if the Di tribe sends troops, they can directly attack the hinterland of Yizhou, and the dangerous pass of Yizhou will be destroyed without attack." Huang Zhong of the Di tribe knew that, like the Qiang tribe, they all lived in the northwestern region of the Han Dynasty, with a large population. Brave and fierce.

"Mr. Ziming's intention is to absorb the Di people in the same way as the Qiang people, so that their population and land will all belong to the Han." Chen Ziming didn't want to make any allies, what he needed was annexation, what he needed was a complete occupation.

"This..." Huang Zhong frowned and said, "The land of the Di tribe is in the barren land in the northwest. The land is vast and sparsely populated, so it's not easy to plant. If it weren't for this, it would have entered the land of the Han Dynasty."

After hearing this, Huang Zhong was very puzzled. Chen Ziming especially likes to expand outwards. Now Liu Bei's territory is less than half of the original Han's territory, but expanded. Now Chen Ziming is interested in the territory of the Di people. Huang Zhong thinks that kind of barren land , it's not much use.

"No, Mr. Ziming has a unique vision and long-term thinking, which is beyond calculation." Zhuge Liang is actually a little puzzled, but looking at Fuzhou, Yizhou, Jizhou and Heilongzhou today, which one has not brought great benefits to Liu Bei Group .

Fuzhou is rich in gold, Yizhou is good at farming, Jizhou and Heilongzhou are fertile, have a large population, and are rich in minerals. Especially in the case of the rapid development of Liu Bei's territory, these states provide countless resource support for the development of Liu Bei's territory.

As for what the Di tribe has, no one knows, maybe Chen Ziming, who is omnipotent, knows. Anyway, according to the information they have collected so far, the territory of the Di tribe is very large, and it can be called the second Yizhou, but the territory of the Di tribe is not as good as Yizhou. There is no suitable arable land in Yizhou, which is very barren.

Huang Zhong was speechless against Zhuge Liang's words. Facts have proved that what Chen Ziming has done is, so far, all correct, and they have all achieved great benefits in the end.

For example, when the Qiang people in the north entered the customs, they spent countless manpower and material resources, and consumed astronomical figures of food and grass, but only got a million people. Liu Bei's territory will not be without young and strong farming, and it will not be without conquest.

"If the Di people attack Yizhou, Liu Zhang may resist desperately. It will be difficult for us to enter Yizhou. If we are blocked from Yizhou, it will be easier for Sun Quan and Cao Cao." Huang Zhong expressed his concern that the Di people attacked Yizhou , It will definitely make Yizhou into chaos, and have no time to take care of Jiameng Pass, Jiange and other places, and give them a chance to break through the pass.

But now Sun Quan and Cao Cao's army has entered the hinterland of Yizhou smoothly, and when the Di tribe attacks, they will marry them.

"No." Zhuge Liang Yaoyao said: "Although the Di tribe will send troops, they will not attack the city of Yizhou. It is just to put pressure on Liu Zhang and create opportunities for us to break through."

"So that's the case, what about the second team?" Huang Zhong hurriedly asked, he seemed to sense that the second team was the key to their capture of Yizhou.

"The second group of people has already entered Yizhou. At this time, Mr. Ziming can make plans for us by writing a letter. Presumably, there will be news in the near future. "Zhuge Liang didn't say who the second group of people was, but he didn't know who they were, it was all the secret guards who were in touch.

However, Zhuge Liang believed that these people would surface soon, and whoever opened the gate of Yizhou for their army would be arranged by Chen Ziming.

Just when Huang Zhong was on his way to the expedition, a caravan passed through numerous checkpoints and arrived in Chengdu, the political center of Yizhou. There were many such caravans in Chengdu, some of which were close to merchants, and went back and forth within Yizhou.

And some are merchants from far away, out of Yizhou. Such caravans are organized by the big Yizhou family, with a very large background, and most people dare not offend them. Now the one who has entered the gate of Chengdu is the merchant of the Zhang family of Yizhou. Team.

Even as the gate guard of the capital, he did not dare to check too much. The Zhang family is very powerful in Yizhou, and there are members of the Zhang family from the doctor to the pawn.

The Zhang family caravan returned very smoothly to the Zhang family compound, which occupies a very large area in Chengdu, and handed over the goods to the family members. Everyone in the caravan went back to rest. It would take half a year for a business trip, and they were already exhausted. The body is tired and the heart is even more tired.

"Zhang An, go home and see your wife..."

"That's right, Zhang An, just newly married and running a business with you, leaving your lady alone in an empty room, how can I bear it..."

When they came back, everyone in the caravan made fun of Zhang An, who had a simple and honest face. Zhang An blushed and dared not answer. He ran home quickly, and a group of people laughed again. Home, missing the little lady at home, but he hasn't finished the handover yet, so he can't leave.

But the simple and honest Zhang An returned home, warmed up with the newly married woman who had been separated for a while, and at night, went out quietly, and quickly disappeared into the night.

On the second day, early in the morning, there was another morning court in the main hall of the Shu Han Dynasty. Liu Zhang was very active in the morning court these days. Unlike usual, he came whenever he wanted. Liu Zhang's good days are coming to an end.

"Report to Your Majesty." Li Hui, the important minister of Yizhou, was the first to stand up: "Sun Quan, the son of the rebel minister and traitor, has occupied half of Yizhou. He joined forces with the rebel Meng Huo to attack Wuyang. General Zhang Ren asked for reinforcements."

"Send reinforcements quickly, Wuyang must not be lost." Liu Zhang was anxious when he heard that Wuyang was the last barrier of Chengdu. If Wuyang was lost, Sun Quan's army would come to Chengdu.

"Your Majesty." Minister Deng Xian came out and said, "There are only [-] soldiers and horses around Chengdu, and they still need to guard Chengdu, Jiangyou and other important towns. They should not be moved lightly. There are no soldiers to move."

"Your Majesty." Zhang Song came out and said, "It's not that there are no soldiers at hand. There are tens of thousands of soldiers at Jiameng Pass, Yangping Pass, Baishui Pass, and Jiange Pass."

"It must not be done." Liu Ba heard Zhang Song's words, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Jiameng Pass and other checkpoints are for Liu Bei's defense, and they must not be moved lightly. Liu Bei sent troops to occupy Liangzhou and Hanzhong for profit. The state's heart is known to all the world, so it must be guarded against."
