The strongest, the fastest update of the last Three Kingdoms 2: Xingwei latest chapter!

When Jiang Wei sent troops to Qiangzhong, he only brought 8,000 Shu troops, but after quelling the rebellion in Qiangzhong, Jiang Wei collected a lot of Qiang soldiers, and now Jiang Wei has more than 30,000 people under his command, which is also Jiang Wei's courage to wave his army in Hanzhong and have a long and short confidence with the Wei army.

Qiang is an ancient nation, far in the Xia and Shang eras, the Qiang people have been active in the west, Yin Shang, Qiang is one of the Fang countries, its leader holds an official position in the court, to the Qin and Han dynasties, the Qiang people and the Central Plains Dynasty of the war continues, forced by pressure, repeatedly moved west, to the end of the Han Dynasty Three Kingdoms period, has formed a fixed tribe.

There are many Qiang tribes, and the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Nanban Southwest Yilie" records: "Ran Shuyi, opened by Emperor Wu, thought Wenshan County in the sixth year of Yuan Ding...... Its mountains have six Yi, seven Qiang, and nine Yi, each with its own tribe." The Southwest Qiang is divided into many Qiang tribes, such as Yak Qiang, Baima Qiang, Tsing Yi Qiang, Shenwolf Qiang and Ranjun Qiang.

This Jiang Wei crusade is located in Yinping County and Wenshan County around the Baimaqiang, the Qiang people are fierce, good at fighting, the most famous Wudang Fei Army in the Shu army, is formed with Qingqiang as the team, this time Jiang Wei not only quelled the rebellion of Baimaqiang, but also recruited more than 20,000 Qiang soldiers, greatly enriched the combat effectiveness of the Shu army.

Jiang Wei's plan this time was to first base himself on Yang'an Pass, and Wang Ping, the governor of Hanzhong, who was sticking to the two cities of Hanle, to support each other, so that the Wei army was exhausted in the Hanzhong siege, and after the reinforcements from Fucheng arrived, they would launch a counteroffensive to cut off the back road of the Wei army and annihilate it in the Hanzhong Basin.

For the situation in Hanzhong, Jiang Wei has a deep understanding, when Zhuge Liang was alive, he had made overall arrangements for the defense system of Hanzhong, whether it belongs to the Hanzhong Plain in the Hancheng Lecheng, or in the periphery of Yang'ankou, Gold and other cities, there is an extremely strong defense system, even if the Wei army is to attack the Hanzhong Plain, only these important sieges are still in the hands of the Shu army, the situation in Hanzhong will not be too bad, or there is an opportunity to defend and counterattack.

But the fall of Yang'an Pass made Jiang Wei's plan completely fail.

What made Jiang Wei most angry was that the Wei army conquered Yang'an Pass, not by force, but by sneak attack.

However, in the end, Jiang Wei still suppressed the anger in his heart and calmly analyzed the current situation.

The 150,000 troops of the Wei army entered Hanzhong from Fu Luo Dao, and had broken through the eastern fortress Xing, entered the Hanzhong Plain, besieged Hancheng and Lecheng and launched siege operations, the fall of Yang'an Pass made the situation of Wang Ping and Liu Min stationed in the second city of Hanle more and more dangerous, and the reinforcements of Shu State would be blocked out of Yang'an Pass, unable to implement effective assistance to Wang Ping and Liu Min.

Therefore, recapturing Yang'an Pass is the key to this campaign, and only by reoccupying Yang'an Pass can this game of chess in Hanzhong be revitalized.

After inquiry, Jiang Wei learned that it was a cavalry unit of the Wei army that captured Yang'an Pass, and the number was not too many, only about six or seven hundred horsemen.

Six or seven hundred cavalry cavalry, it was easy to break through the Yang'an Pass guarded by more than 1,000 people, which made Jiang Wei suddenly depressed, the Shu army in the era of Zhuge Liang, has always had a tradition of defeating the strong with the weak, often can win more with less, and outnumbered the enemy, but now the situation has turned around, the Wei army of six or seven hundred people can beat thousands of Shu troops to the ground, and it is sitting on an extremely dangerous pass, what a pig teammate!

However, this obviously provides Jiang Wei with useful information, that is, at present, in Yang'an Pass, there is only such a cavalry team of the Wei army, and the real Wei army brigade has not arrived, if Jiang Wei's army launches a counterattack on Yang'an Pass at this moment, this force of the Wei army is weak, and Jiang Wei has every chance to counterattack and take Yang'an Pass.

Therefore, Jiang Wei ordered, and the army immediately set up camp and galloped away in the direction of Wangyang Anguan.

After capturing Yangping Pass, Shi Bao reported to Cao Liang that about eighty percent of the defenders were annihilated, and only Li Qiu, the guard of Yangping Pass, fled with the remnants of hundreds of defeated soldiers, and Shi Bao asked Cao Liang if he wanted to send troops to pursue.

Since the Wei army was all cavalry troops, if you wanted to chase and kill Li Qiu, it probably wouldn't take a few hours to catch up.

Cao Liang categorically rejected Shi Bao's idea of wanting to pursue, Li Qiu, just a mediocre material, it is not worth Cao Liang's mobilization to pursue him at all.

The most important thing now is that when the Wei reinforcements arrived to take over the defense, the Yue cavalry battalion made every effort to defend Yangping Pass, and there was no chance of losing it.

It can be expected that the fall of Yangping Pass, the Shu army will definitely jump over the wall in a hurry and launch a counteroffensive, defending the city is not the specialty of the Yue cavalry battalion, if the Shu army pours out a large army to attack, it will indeed give the Yue cavalry battalion great pressure.

So at this time, how could Cao Liang divide his troops to deal with a small and worthless Li Qiu, and now the most important task is to hold Yangping Pass and prevent the Shu army from succeeding in its counterattack.

Cao Liang personally landed at the head of the city west of Yangping Pass to arrange the matter of defending the city.

When Li Qiu guarded Yangping Pass, all defensive weapons were deployed at the east gate, and now the Wei army needs to move these weapons to the west gate, and this work alone is already very great.

Since it only took less than an hour for the Yue cavalry battalion to enter the city to control Yangping Pass, most of the defensive equipment and grain and grass materials in Yangping Pass fell into the hands of the Wei army, which was a very good thing for the Yue cavalry battalion that came from the light cavalry raid, which not only solved the problem of food, but also had the ordnance to defend Yangping Pass.

Deng Ai commanded the Wei soldiers to carry weapons and supplies, and was busy nervously, because no one knew when the Shu army would launch a counterattack, and the sooner these ordnance materials were in place, the sooner they could rest assured.

Those captured Shu soldiers were all Deng Ai to be a strong man, to help the Shu army to carry grain and grass materials, these Shu soldiers about two or three hundred people, after the Yue cavalry battalion entered the city, seeing that the situation was not good, after breaking through the hopeless, they took the initiative to disarm and surrender, at this time they used them to defend the city Deng Ai may not dare, but there is no problem in carrying grain and grass.

Yangping Pass was very busy, the scene was extremely warm but not chaotic, with Deng Ai's command and dispatch, everything was still in order.
