Chapter 184: Closing the Internet

Xue Bing walked in front and didn't look at whether Xin Xianying was following behind. In fact, with his current hearing, as long as Xin Xianying followed behind, he could naturally hear footsteps.

Therefore, he didn't have to look back to know whether he was following behind. He left the general office and then turned to the northwest. After a while, the two of them moved to a house.

When he arrived outside the door, Xue Bing turned his head and looked at Xin Xianying. Seeing that he looked anxious, he kept laughing in his heart. In fact, it only takes a short walk to get from the General Office to the house where Xin Chang lives.

But Xue Bing took Xin Xianying around for a long time before she came here. "Let you help your brother do something to mess with me!"

I felt a little happy, but my face looked serious and said to Xin Xianying: "Mr. Xin will live here. Miss Xin, please follow me in the future."

Turning his head, he couldn't help but smile on his face. However, although Xin Xianying looked calm, the anxiety revealed in his eyes could be seen between his eyebrows and the anxiety that was revealed in his eyes as long as he was not a blind man.

After greeting the guards standing outside the door, Xue Bing led Xin Xianying to Xin Chang's residence. This is a small courtyard, and there is a small house in the courtyard, which is Xin Chang's resting room.

But he is not in the house now, but is walking back and forth in the yard.

Because Xue Bing did not allow him to go out casually, his range of activities was limited to this small courtyard. On this day, when he was moving his body, he suddenly saw Xue Bing coming in, and thought to himself that Xue Bing was looking for him again.

Just as he was about to salute, he suddenly saw someone following him.

After a closer look, who was not his sister? He changed his face and bowed to Xue Bing, and asked anxiously: "What's the matter with the general coming here to find a gall? Why did he bring my sister here?" But he said in his heart that Xue Bing refused to keep his promise and captured his sister, wanting to take care of her together.

He was thinking about it. He thought to himself that if Xue Bing really had difficulty with his sister, he would never answer half of the question. He was thinking, but Xue Bing said, "Ms. Xin was worried about his situation, so he went to find me and wanted to meet him.

This general then led Miss Xin to visit Mr. "

As Xue Bing was talking, she saw Xin Xianying walking forward for several steps, standing in front of Xin Chang and looking carefully, seeing that she was full of energy. Her clothes were neat and her face was very clean, and she didn't look like someone who had suffered any crime.

Only then did I realize that what Xue Bing said before was not false, so I turned to Xue Bing and said, "Thank you, General, for treating my brother well."

He waved his hand and didn't reply, because Xue Bing knew that even if he said something, he probably wouldn't listen. And as if he was confirming how correct his guess was, Xin Xianying said something politely.

He immediately turned his head and said something to Xin Chang, throwing Xue Bing aside completely.

With his hands touching his jaw, Xue Bing even wondered if his charm had declined. Why did this Miss Xin ignore him again and again?

Although Xin Xianying's attitude towards Xue Bing is not cold on the surface, Xue Bing is not a young boy. He can see clearly the coldness in the lady's eyes.

I think if Xin Chang hadn't been in his hands, it would be difficult for this lady from the Xin family to come to him on his own initiative.

He shook his head and threw these messy things out of his mind. He went to see the Xin brothers and sisters again, and the two had already run to the corner of the yard to chat. As for what to talk about.

Xue Bing was not interested in knowing that anyway, there were only a bunch of old, weak, women and children left in Xin's house, and the strong men had long been arrested for their uniform care. And these women and children were also under the supervision of elite soldiers.

Like Xin Xianying went out of the mansion to find him today, there was a soldier behind him. Anyway, Zhang Ren brought most of his troops into the city, and his troops were no longer as difficult as before, so he was not afraid that they would cause any trouble.

Standing there stupidly, Xue Bing only felt bored enough.

Now he thought about the military dispatch in a few days, but Xin Xianying came over and bowed to him again and said, "The general does not hold past grudges. I forgive my sins for Xin's family. En Xianying must remember this. Now that I know that my brother is safe, Xianying said goodbye."

Xue Bing was still looking at the sky and wondering about sending troops. Suddenly, he heard Xin Xianying's words and quickly replied. Then he said, "Miss Xin wants to do it. I will give you a ride."

Unexpectedly, Xin Xianying smiled and said, "It's okay for the general to send him off!" After saying that, he said again: "Xianying doesn't want to walk for a long time."

It turned out that when Xin Xianying came with Xue Bing first, she was worried about his brother's safety, so she didn't notice that Xue Bing deliberately took a detour. When she saw that his brother was safe, she naturally calmed down.

In addition, she has lived in Chang'an for a long time and has long discovered that this place is not far from the General Office. She has walked for so long before, so naturally Xue Bing deliberately tricked her.

When Xue Bing saw Xin Xianying notice it, she didn't care. She just smiled and said, "Since that's the case, Miss Xin will go."

Xin Xianying nodded and left straight. Behind him, there were naturally soldiers of that kind of soldiers following him.

Seeing that Xin Xianying had gone far away, Xue Bing turned around and saw Xin Chang standing beside her. She suddenly thought to herself: "Xin Chang has lived in Yongzhou for a long time, and I don't know if he can bring this person with me, so I think he is the guide."

"But then I thought about it, it was too dangerous to bring such a guy who might have done something wrong in the army at any time, so I gave up this idea, said goodbye to Xin Chang, and went back to rest...

The next morning, Xue Bing had just finished her meal, and he heard from him say to him: "General Zhang Ren is asking for a meeting."

Xue Bing was confused when she heard this and said to herself, "What's wrong with Zhang Ren?" So she went out with her left and right to pick up Zhang Ren. As soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw Zhang Ren's face was tired and looked exhausted.

This made Xue Bing startled and asked, "What's wrong with General Zhang?"

When Zhang Ren heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that General Xue is still hurting the land. The general threw so many books to the General yesterday. The General had been seeing this since yesterday, and then he had just finished reading it."

After hearing this, Xue Bing realized that Zhang Ren had just arrived in Chang'an and had taken a day and night to sort out the pile of things. He had not yet rested. Then he said, "Since that's the case, General Zhang did not go to rest, but came to find someone. What's the point?"

Zhang Ren said: "It's just that when the general checked the defense near Chang'an, he found that the general did not deploy enough troops at the junction of Weishui and the Yellow River. According to the general's words yesterday.

The importance here is likely to be related to the war situation in Yongzhou, so why didn’t the general camp a group of troops here?”

Xue Bing laughed and said, "It's not because someone doesn't want to camp, but because our troops are insufficient.

Most of the troops and horses have been sent around Chang'an and the important areas of Tongguan. In addition, the general and General Zhao also have to lead some troops from east to west to directly take Xu Huang's army, echoing the main force of the king.

It can be said that all the troops who can use the land are used this time.”

While speaking, he led Zhang Ren into the hall and poured a bowl of water himself. Then he continued: "While Feng Sa's place is small, it is essential to have fewer soldiers. If more troops are placed, the Chang'an line will be unable to support the king's main force.

In this way, it just keeps the current situation of the battle and continues to be stalemate."

After hearing this, Zhang Ren saw Xue Bing looking at him again.

Then he nodded, indicating that he understood, and then Xue Bing said, "The general means that if the general cannot lead enough troops out of Chang'an, it will be difficult to break the balance of the battlefield on the Western Front. So.

The general is preparing to temporarily let the holes in the ground here, first defeat Xu Huang's army in the west, and then turn back to deal with this problem?"

Xue Bing nodded and continued, "No," Although our army's combat power is higher than that of Cao's army, its military strength is not as large as that of Cao's army. Even if it is elite, if the number is too small, it is not enough to completely defeat Cao's army.

Now the Kings and Army stationed in the west is at most in a state of equal strength with the Cao army. The task of our army is to break this balance and completely put the Cao army in a state of collapse.

After saying that, he looked at the loophole again and said lightly: "The only hope now is that I will sweep the road from Chang'an to Qinchuan, and General Zhao can return to block the road, Cao Cao's Central Army did not react."...

A few days later, Zhao Yun and Xue Ze returned to Chang'an. Xue Bing immediately ordered the troops and took Deng Zhi as the deputy general. The troops rushed straight to Xianyang.

At the same time, Zhao Yun was asked to lead three thousand troops. With Xue Ze as the deputy general, the light cavalry advanced rapidly. He took Fufeng straight, then turned to the northeast and advanced to Wugong at the same time with Xue Bing's army.

Zhao Yun rushed back from Tongguan. Before he had time to rest for a day, he immediately ordered his troops and hurried out of the city with Xue Ze. But it was because the road he was going to travel was even further than Xue Bing's.

Before arriving in martial arts, Zhao Yun's army had to take troops and horses into a small circle. Fortunately, the places where Zhao Yun's army had to pass along the way had been included in the rule of the King of Hanzhong, and there was no danger before attacking Fufeng.

However, when Xue Bing proposed this plan, Zhao Yun didn't even ask, but just smiled and said, "Don't worry, Yun will definitely complete the task of Zihan's place. "

Xue Bing smiled and said nothing more, just said, "Zilong, take care of yourself!" Then she sat quietly on the horse, watching Zhao Yun lead the three thousand troops to gradually move away until she could no longer see clearly.

At this time, Deng Zhi rode his horse to Xue Bing and whispered: "General, it's time for us to set off."

Xue Bing nodded, turned around and looked behind him. He saw that the soldiers behind him were full of energy, bright helmets and armor, and clear-cut flags. Moreover, the seven thousand people naturally exuded a murderous aura when they stood.

Some people with some eyes can see that these seven thousand soldiers are elite soldiers.

Xue Bing was also very satisfied with his seven thousand soldiers. After looking at it, he passed by, and waved the blood dragon halberd in his hand, lifted it backwards in his hand, waved his left hand forward suddenly, and shouted: "Go away!"

As soon as he urged the red rabbit horse under his crotch, he slowly walked forward. The seven thousand soldiers behind him, after receiving the order, immediately arranged in ten columns according to their location and their own organization, followed Xue Bing and headed towards the northwest.

But I was preparing to cross the Wei River directly and then seize Xianyang...

In 215 AD, the 20th year of Jian'an, early summer.

However, after Lu Xun led his troops to capture Wu Pass and Qingni Pass, he handed over the two passes to Wang Fu and Deng Ai to guard them separately. He quickly rushed to Guan Yu's original formation and returned.

As for those two passes, he was actually not worried. Because as long as Guan Yu's army was still stationed under Wancheng, the Cao army would not dare to send most of the troops to attack these two passes. If he sent a small group of troops.

As for the dangers of those two passes, you only need to defend according to the danger, and the small group of Cao soldiers are not worthy of fear.

Moreover, Wang Fu was cautious and quite wise in these two guards. Although Deng Ai was young, his ability had long been recognized by Guan Yu. Otherwise, he would not have been sent by Guan Yu to inspect the places in Jingzhou.

Moreover, when he seized the pass, Deng Ai also showed his bravery. He was the second son of the Guan family, so the soldiers were very respectful to him and were not afraid that any soldiers would not obey his orders.

It can be said that Lu Xun calculated all these locks and realized that there was no danger in these two places, so he left with confidence. He rushed to the meeting.

But he was so anxious to go back because he received a letter from Xue Bing to Piao Tianwen.

After reading this letter, Lu Xun immediately understood Xue Bing's meaning. But all the troops and horses had already taken their place. What they had to do next was to close the net and wipe out all the Cao troops besieged inside.

Of course, these are what Yongliang should do. The next step for the army in Jingzhou is to fight several major battles with the Cao army in Wancheng, attracting Cao's army's attention, and then suddenly turn to the southeast to attack the southern part of Yuzhou.

However, the specific implementation method is not explained. Moreover, if Guan Yu's army turns directly to the southeast, it is very likely to be attacked by Cao's army. Therefore, the next action will require Guan Yu and the people around him to plan.

As for why this order came from Xue Bing, it is because the key point of this Northern Expedition is in Chang'an. At the same time, because of Chang'an's geographical location, Xue Bing got this right.

It was when he thought everything was mature that he immediately sent a general attack signal to the main force of the King of Hanzhong and the Guan Yu army in Jingzhou.

The attack signal to Jingzhou was actually one or two days a morning when Zhang Ren arrived in Chang'an. This was when Xue Bing decided to go to the ground considering the traffic issues at this time, the speed of information transmission, and the role of Jingzhou in Cao's army and the role of Jingzhou in separating the Cao army.

The signal to Liu Bei's main force was that it was not until after Zhang Ren arrived and arranged all the defenses in Tongguan that the fast horses rushed towards Tianshui.

At that time, Xue Bing complained more than once: "It's too hard. If our army had a pigeon available at this time, I can guarantee that we could definitely make Cao Jun play around and unable to understand the direction of our army's main attack."

Unfortunately, he only got the pigeon. It may take one to two years to form a complete communication system. Therefore, Xue Bing could only complain while arranging a quick horse to send letters to various places.

As for when Lu Xun received this order, what he was thinking about was no longer the battle situation in Yongzhou and the defense issues at the two passes. Instead, how should Guan Yu's main force in Jingzhou fight against Cao's army in Wancheng? How many battles should he fight with Cao's army in Wancheng?

How far is the fight? Then there is the opportunity to withdraw troops and turn around, as well as the precautions against Cao's army when withdrawing troops.

He ran all the way, and when Lu Xun rushed from Qingni Pass to Guanyu's village below Wancheng, he had a rough idea.

But Guan Yu was planning to discuss the next siege with Xu Shu in the tent, and was also talking about the situation in other places.

Xu Shu said: "Now the Hanzhong King's army confronted Xu Huang's main force in Yongzhou for several months, and General Xue's surprise troops have seized Chang'an and Tongguan and other places. Bo Yan has also seized Qingni Pass.

Now the east gate of Yongzhou has been closed, just waiting for General Wei’s Hanzhong soldiers to leave the valley. I think the king will order the Cao army in Yongzhou to siege and kill.

Guan Yu closed his eyes, but gradually smiled and said to Xu Shu: "In this way, Yongzhou will be the King of Hanzhong!"
