Chapter 589: Key Point White Horse Pass! (below)

The soldiers of the Shu Han army were paralyzed on the head of the city, surrounded by blood and water and the corpses of soldiers on both sides, and many people's expressions looked very numb.

Yan Yan walked on the head of the city, his brows furrowed, and at this time, Leng Bao hurriedly came to Yan Yan's face.

Leng Bao was the guard of Baima Pass, and when the captain found him last night, he was enjoying himself on the pretty widow's bed, unaware of what the Wei army had killed in front of him.

"General, in today's battle, our army suffered nearly 2,000 casualties!" Leng Baocha reported.

Yan Yan frowned, and said, "Collect the corpse and burn it immediately, so as not to cause a plague!" ”

Leng Bao said: "The last general has already ordered someone to do this!" ”

Yan Yan nodded: "What is the situation of the Wei army's casualties?" ”

Yan Yan asked, and Leng Bao replied: "It is estimated that it is about three thousand, and most of them were shot by our army's bed crossbow!" ”

"Is there enough crossbow arrows in the bed?"

"Arrows are not a problem!"

Yan Yan nodded, and said, "Order all departments to be on strict guard and not slack off!" ”

"Yes!" Leng Bud promised and retreated.

Yan Yan stood on the edge of the battlement and looked at the Wei army camp outside the city, and there was a heavy pressure in his heart, Baima Pass looked like it was constantly blocking the attack of the Wei army, but in fact it was just a short day!

On this day, the number of people in Baima Pass dropped from 5,000 to 3,000, not to mention, the army of nearly 200,000 was wiped out, and Xichuan at this moment really didn't know that there were not enough troops to resist the attack of the Wei army.

If Baima Pass, the western gateway to Xichuan, is breached, then the fate of Xichuan is no different from Jingzhou, which has lost the barrier of the Yangtze River. The sorrow and annoyance on Yan Yan's face became even more obvious.

In the following two days, Xu Huang urged all departments under the eagle to storm Baima Pass. At the same time, Liu Zhang, who was far away in Yizhou, received the news that the army had been destroyed and the Wei army had attacked Baima Pass.

As soon as Liu Zhang learned that the 200,000-strong army had been destroyed in Jingzhou. I almost fainted on the spot.

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel worried when they saw Liu Zhang's face being extremely ugly.

"Your Majesty. I wonder what happened? A scribe with a stern temperament came out and asked, this person is Fazheng.

Liu Zhang glanced at Fa Zheng and said tremblingly: "The front line has reported that the 200,000 troops led by General Yan Yan have been wiped out in Jingzhou!" ”

Liu Zhang's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, everyone present was stunned and pale, 200,000 troops, that is Xichuan's old book!

The thought of the annihilation of the 200,000-strong army left many people's minds in confusion, and they did not know what to do. The silence in the hall was as if it were death.

After a long time, Prime Minister Zhang Song stubbornly came out and asked, "I don't know what is the movement of the Wei army now?" ”

Zhang Song changed the topic well, although the annihilation of the whole army was bad news, but the Wei army, which was close at hand, was even more important, and everyone came back to their senses and looked at Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang said worriedly: "The general of the Wei army, Xu Huang's department, is now rushing to attack Baima Pass!" General Yan sent a message saying that if there were no reinforcements. It can only resist for four days at most! If it is less, it may even be breached in a day or two! ”

The palace suddenly exploded, and many people were shocked and misguided, and the 200,000 army was destroyed. The Wei army approached Baima Pass, although there were no troops in the city, but it was enough to make most of the Shu Han courtiers panic. In the midst of the discussions, the voice of the peace talks reappeared.

But there was the Lord and the Pie. Obviously, there are still the main battle faction, or the so-called main battle faction, who understand that Cao Cao simply cannot negotiate peace like last time. Instead, he avenged the heart of destroying Shu Han, and had to fight the main battle, and the main and main faction quarreled again in the main hall. The quarrel between the two factions made Liu Zhang's irritable brows furrow, and after adding that series of bad news, he finally couldn't bear to slap the case, and the huge sound made His Royal Highness and everyone startled, and quickly closed their mouths.

Liu Zhang glanced at the people in the hall, and added some angry and frightened reprimands with dissatisfaction: "What kind of system do you have to become a minister when you become a minister, but you are so frightened in the palace!!! ”

The crowd is submissive.

After venting for a while, Liu Zhang asked Zhang Song, who was standing in the hall, with a nervous expression: "Prime Minister, now that the Wei army is in Baima Pass, I don't know what good solution the Prime Minister can have?" Liu Zhang's face was expectant.

Zhang Song came out and said: "Your Majesty, all the troops in Sichuan still have 100,000 people, and my Sichuan is a land of four stops, and there are dangerous and desperate areas on all sides, so we can still resist the attack of the Wei army!" ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone's expressions were a little better, whether it was true or not, at least it sounded like Wei Jun was unlikely to be easy to get in, no, people have the characteristic of self-deception.

At this time, Zhang Song said again: "The current top priority is to send reinforcements to Baima Pass!" ”

Liu Zhang was shocked and said urgently: "Yes, yes, what the prime minister said is right, come on!" ”

The Yulin sergeant who was waiting outside the main hall immediately entered, hugged his fists and said, "See Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

"Immediately order all the garrisons of Wuyang, Jialing, Zhuti, Jiangyang, and Ba County, not a single soldier will be left behind by me, and all of them will immediately send me to the aid of Baima Pass!"

Sergeant Yulin was stunned for a moment, but then clenched his fists and withdrew from the main hall.

Liu Zhang sat on the main seat and muttered, "I hope Yan Yan can hold out until the reinforcements arrive!" ”

Seeing that his younger brother was still highly valued by Liu Zhang under such circumstances, Zhang Song's brother Zhang Su didn't know if it was because of jealousy or the psychology of wanting to be in the limelight, and said: "Weichen has a performance!" ”

"Aiqing, please speak!" Liu Zhang looked at the prime minister's eldest brother, and his heart moved, thinking that he also wanted to give himself some good plan, so he agreed with a happy face.

Zhang Su said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the general Yan Yan, is highly valued by Your Majesty, and commands the 200,000 army of my Han Dynasty, but Yan Yan has the grace of the saint, and the defeat of the army led to the destruction of the 200,000 army of Qin, this crime must be asked!" Or, the people in the army are unstable! Now that the Wei army is approaching Baima Pass, this is the autumn of the survival of my Han Dynasty, but at this time, Yan Yan must be executed to deter the three armies, so that the three sergeants dare not commit this crime again! ”

Liu Zhang frowned, thinking of the family members of the 200,000 soldiers, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed with Yan Yan, the old general, at this time, Fa Zheng hurriedly came out and said urgently: "Your Majesty, although the general is guilty of defeat, but the current situation is extremely critical, how can you deal with the general at this time!" ”

Zhang Su said disapprerovingly: "This is a bad word! It must be known that the most important thing in the army is that the rewards and punishments are clear, and now Yan Yan has caused the entire army to be annihilated, how can it not lead to its crimes? ”

Fa Zhengdao: "Nothing is absolute, and how to do it must be based on the actual situation!" Today, the army is newly defeated, the army's morale is unstable, and if the general is severely punished, it will definitely cause turmoil in the army's heart! ”

Immediately, Fa Zheng said to Liu Zhang: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that you must not dispose of the generals in the army at this time!" ”

Liu Zhang felt that what the two of them said was reasonable, and he didn't know how to decide, so he turned his head to look at Zhang Song and asked, "Prime Minister, what do you see?" (To be continued......)
