At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted

According to Cheng Gongying's description, Liu Zhang guessed that Ma Chao and Fazheng probably forcibly escaped into the depths of the desert in order to avoid the predicament of being surrounded.

Liu Zhang didn't know the size of the desert in the Western Regions at this time, but he knew very well how terrifying the deserts in the Western Regions would be in later generations.

It was a nightmare zone big enough to accommodate several passes.

Once it goes too deep, Ma Chao and Fazheng, who have no experience, will immediately lose their way.

To get lost in the desert is almost a sentence of death.

The problem of water source alone is enough to kill 10,000 troops!

If you can't find an oasis in the desert, you will soon die of thirst!

Liu Zhang never thought of it, he just wanted to let Ma Chao and Fazheng have a good exercise, but he didn't expect to push them into hell with his own hands!

In history, Ma Chao still killed Cao Cao at any rate, cutting off his beard and robe, and Fazheng beheaded Xia Houyuan in the first battle of Hanzhong, which shocked the world.

Could it be that after following him, he will end up in the tragic death of the Western Regions?

It's a pity that Liu Zhang was completely at a loss what to do about the predicament that Ma Chao and Fazheng were going through.

Even if there is no Allied Forces of the Four Nations outside Yumen Pass, it is impossible to find it in the desert.

You, Bing, Ji, Qing, Yan, Yu, Xu, and Si eight prefectures combined may not be as large as the deserts of the Western Regions.

How did Liu Zhang find it?

One hundred thousand troops went in, but it was a drop in the bucket.

Millions of troops go in, and it is also like finding a needle in a haystack!

Ma Chao, whether Fazheng can live or not, except for the accident of God, can only depend on themselves.

Just when Liu Zhang was silent because of the sadness in his heart, Shang Shu Ling Jia Xu finally stood up.

"The battle between Qin Gong, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao is getting more and more fierce, and it is estimated that the winner will be determined soon."

"For the benefit of our state of Qin, Guanzhong must maintain a certain amount of military strength at all times."

"The old minister asks Qin Gong to think twice, and don't use weapons in a moment of anger."

Jia Xu is from Wuwei, and now the Guanlong family all follow Jia Xu's lead.

After Jia Xu made his statement, these officials immediately advised Liu Zhang.

"Mr. Qin, please think twice!"

Everyone in the court knew the current situation of Qin State, and they also knew that there was no time to send troops at all.

He didn't take the initiative to speak out, because he didn't want to bear Liu Zhang's anger.

Now that Jia Xu, Xun You, and the Guanlong faction have all persuaded them one after another, the Yizhou aristocratic family naturally cannot be willing to be inferior.

Under the leadership of Yang Hong and Zhang Su, everyone also asked Liu Zhang to think twice.

This step is indeed full, and Liu Zhang has no reason to continue holding it.

"Gu is not a self-willed person. Since everyone is against it, let's stop sending troops!"

"Order Lu Su, governor of Liangzhou, to mobilize Liangzhou soldiers and horses to support Yumen Pass, and make sure to stop the thieves outside the pass!"

"Duke Qin is wise!"

Seeing the unanimous bowing down and praise of all the ministers, Liu Zhang suddenly thought of a few words.

Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills!

"Pass orders to Cheng Gongying, tell him not to give up his search for Fazheng and Ma Chao, and report any news immediately!"

After discussing this matter, after discussing the crisis of Yumen Pass not being broken, it can only be revealed at this point.

As for the disappearance of Ma Chao and Fazheng, Liu Zhang was more helpless than worried.

Things have come to this, and I can only pray for them silently in my heart.

"Wenhe, what did you say about the Hebei battlefield?"

It was rare to gather so many civil and military ministers, and Liu Zhang discussed this matter without preparation.

This kind of court meeting is very similar to the previous court meeting in Liu Hong's period, and Liu Zhang also enjoyed this feeling very much.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, Yuan Shao's two side divisions are currently confronting Cao Cao's side division in Pingyuan County and Wei County respectively."

"The strength of Yuan Shao's division is twice that of Cao Cao's division, but Yuan Jun has been guarding the dangerous point and dare not fight Cao Jun at all."

"Yuan Shao personally led a 100,000 main force to confront Cao Cao's 100,000 main force near Handan. At present, Yuan Shao seems to have gained some advantage by relying on Wuhuan cavalry."

This situation was somewhat beyond Liu Zhang's expectations.

The side division with all the superiority in military strength could not shrink back, but Yuan Shao, who had no superiority in military strength, took the initiative.

When it comes to Wuhuan cavalry, Liu Zhang has to lament the power of the butterfly effect.

If he hadn't defeated the Xianbei army in the first battle and triggered a great internal struggle in Xianbei, how could Ta Dun dare to lead a heavy army south to help Yuan Shao?

Liu Zhang felt that if he was Yuan Shao, he must give himself a thank you!

"Wenhe, why did you say that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao will soon be victorious?"

"Could it be that you think Yuan Shao can defeat Cao Cao this time?"

If Yuan Shao wins, the fun will be great!

Although Cao Cao will not be completely wiped out, the land north of the Yellow River has to be given up obediently.

Maybe when Cao Cao completely took Hebei, he had to return to the wheel of history.

Liu Zhang was naturally happy to see this situation!

In this way, after five years, all the initiative will be in the hands of Liu Zhang.

Not to mention attacking Jingxiang, Liu Zhang can be more ruthless and advance in both ways!

The Eastern Army entered Jingzhou from the east, the Northern Army left Wuguan, Liu Zhang personally led the Chinese Army, and the Imperial Guards attacked the Central Plains!

The three roads advance together, and the three roads cooperate with each other, and the world may be determined by this one battle!

Especially the duel between Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang made Liu Zhang look forward to it.

The Eastern Army is the stage that Liu Zhang personally set up for Pang Tong!

"Reporting to Duke Qin, the veteran speculates that the final winner should be Cao Cao."

Just when Liu Zhang was full of thoughts, Jia Xu's voice came again.

"Oh? Didn't you say that Yuan Shao has the upper hand?"

Liu Zhang felt a little disappointed, even though he knew that Cao Cao's victory was the correct course.

"Yuan Shao is very happy with his achievements. Once he gains an advantage, he will fall into blind arrogance."

"Therefore, the old minister infers that the greater Yuan Shao's advantage at this time, the faster Yuan's army will be defeated."

Liu Zhang nodded helplessly. If Cao Cao wins, he really has no way to intervene.

You can't even beat a dog in the water, let alone Cao Cao who won the intervention?

"Wenhe, what's going on with Xu Huang? Has Cao Jun in Gucheng made any changes?"

Xu Huang has been acting for a long time, and he has successfully attracted a large number of Cao's main forces to go south.

Liu Zhang thought it was enough for Yuan Shao to give Zhen Mi to him in return.

After all, it was a lonely army going deep. If General Cao Jun reacted, then Xu Huang himself would still be in danger.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, Cao Jun is still stationed in Gucheng in Yin, Henan, and the commander is still Cao Hong."

"However, the old minister heard that Cao Cao has reactivated Sima Yi."

Liu Zhang was startled, and suddenly became nervous.

Perhaps the current Sima Yi is far from reaching the peak level because of his age, but it still makes Liu Zhang feel panicked.

This insidious and cunning person is too dangerous!

"Order Xu Huang to bluff, prepare to attack, and then withdraw overnight!"

"Let him move quickly, withdraw to Huayin and then rest!"

The ministers were a little puzzled, why did Liu Zhang change so quickly?

Even Xun You was surprised by Liu Zhang's nervousness.

Just a Sima Yi, as for that?

At this moment, soldiers outside the hall suddenly reported.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, there is a hundred and eight li in Yizhou to hurry up, and we are waiting outside the palace!"
