Wei Ba led the cavalry to gallop, and three days later, he rushed to Longguan and met Zhao Guang. Although he had the help of stirrups, he still suffered a lot from the gallop for several days, the skin and flesh on the inner thighs were worn out, drenched in blood, and he looked miserable, and he even had to be supported to walk.

Zhao Guang personally helped him into the inner city.

Wei Ba sat down grinning, his movements pulling the wound, and the pain made him breathe. Zhao Guang looked distressed and funny: "What are you doing in such a hurry?" If something happens, won't I even have time to send out the beacon? ”

Wei Ba smiled bitterly and shook his head. There is a beacon fire system in Guanzhong, if there is a change in Longshan, the beacon fire can be transmitted to Chang'an overnight, which is the fastest information highway at this time, faster than six hundred miles of expedited.

"If I don't come, do I have to let Master himself come? The gentleman had something to do, and the disciple obeyed him, so I had to hold on. ”

Zhao Guang's face stiffened, and his expression was a little unnatural: "My father...... Let you come? ”

Wei Ba slowly sat down against the desk, stretched out his legs, and when he saw Zhao Guang like this, he nodded, and said, "Not only your father, but also my father, of course, and General Deng Bomiao." Zhang He arrived in Longyou, and they were all worried. ”

Zhao Guang sighed, this is more natural. Zhao Yun trained cavalry for Wei Ba, which was after he left Chang'an, but he knew. As soon as he saw these cavalry coming with Wei Ba, he estimated that Wei Ba had brought all the cavalry. Guanzhong does not produce horses, Wei Ba can organize more than 2,000 cavalry in such a long time, which is already the limit, and it is impossible for him to have a cavalry battalion of this size in addition to the 2,000 cavalry formed by Zhao Yun.

He originally thought that Wei Ba took the initiative to come over, but now when he heard it, it was actually Zhao Yun who was coming to support Longyou, and at the same time that a stone fell to the ground in his heart, another stone hung again.

Zhao Yun wants to support Longyou, doesn't he break the tacit understanding with Wei Ba? Now I hear that Wei Yan is the same. The same is true for Deng Zhi, and although Wei Ba is a little helpless, he has no anger. I felt a little calmer.

"Ziyu, then you brought these cavalry to support the prime minister?" Zhao Guang asked tentatively.

"With these recruits, what can you support the prime minister?" Wei Ba smiled. He pointed his finger and pointed to his nose: "Actually, I am the one who really comes to support the prime minister, and they are all protecting me." ”

Zhao Guang's eyes rolled. He smiled puzzledly: "Ziyu, I know you are brave, but you can solve the situation of Longyou alone?" ”

"Of course not." Wei Ba slowly put away his smile, a little gloomy. "What use can I be alone, I represent the entire Guanzhong."

Zhao Guang was silent, he understood what Wei Ba meant. No matter how powerful Zhang He is, as long as Zhuge Liang is willing to retreat to Guanzhong. Zhang He can't take the Shu army in the short term. After Zhuge Liang retreated to Guanzhong, he could not only defend according to the danger, but also use the fields in Guanzhong to fight and fight, and also have enough troops to defend the passes. Cao Wei has millions of soldiers, and if he wants to break through the barrier, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort. In this way, the dilemma of insufficient troops in Guanzhong was also solved.

It can be said that it is not a good thing to do two evils, and Shu Han can firmly occupy Guanzhong.

But in this way, Wei Ba's original Jihua who wanted to dominate Guanzhong alone would be bankrupt, and when Zhuge Liang entered Guanzhong, he would have to take a back seat, and it would be impossible to do whatever he wanted like he did some time ago.

Zhuge Liang entered Guanzhong, and for the entire Shu Han, the occupation of Guanzhong was a great victory. For Wei Ba, it was a setback. Of course, this can't be said to be a complete failure, just with Wei Ba's current strength, it is not easy for him to hold Guanzhong. His father Wei Yan, his father Zhao Yun, and Deng Zhi of the Central Supervision Army, the three of them have the same opinion, which is enough to prove that Wei Ba does not have the foundation to dominate Guanzhong at present.

On this basis, Wei Ba took the initiative to give in and personally rushed to Longyou, asking Zhuge Liang to move to Guanzhong, which was also a wise decision.

However, Zhao Guang knew that Wei Ba must be uncomfortable in his heart. He wanted to persuade Wei Ba two sentences, but he didn't know where to start. As a member of the Shu Han Army, of course he hoped that Wei Ba and Zhuge Liang could maintain a good cooperative relationship, but as a close friend, from Wei Ba's point of view, after being regarded as an abandoned son by Zhuge Liang, he had to take the initiative to bow to Zhuge Liang, which was obviously not a very happy thing. Wei Ba has a sense of the overall situation, after all, he is still a young man who has just been weakly crowned.

"Ziyu, no matter what, you will be the first contributor to this Northern Expedition."

Wei Ba smiled and didn't answer Zhao Guang's words. He was very grateful to Zhao Guang for his comfort, but he was not as disappointed as Zhao Guang imagined. Inviting Zhuge Liang into the customs is not entirely a bad thing, there may be temporary grievances, in the long run, after all, the benefits still outweigh the disadvantages. If Zhuge Liang's main force loses too much, he will not be able to hold Guanzhong.

"Zhongde, is there any news from Longyou?"

"Nope." Speaking of the war, Zhao Guang was also a little puzzled. "About ten days ago, Zhang He went south along the Changli River and went straight to Shangqi. I originally thought that he would fight with the prime minister in Shangtai and relieve the siege of Guo Huai first. But these days have passed, and there has been no news, but it is suspiciously quiet. ”

"Storm Shangtai?" Wei Ba shook his head and said without thinking, "That's definitely not going to happen." ”

"What if you don't attack Shangqi?" Zhao Guang asked in surprise.

Wei Ba looked at Zhao Guang and sighed secretly in his heart. No wonder Zhao Yun said that although his two sons are not bad, they are not good enough. Judging from Zhao Guang's character, they inherited Zhao Yun's calmness, but they did not have Zhao Yun's sharpness hidden under his calmness. More than steady, not enough alert. Such a person can keep it, but he can't open it up.

"Zhang He is a cavalryman, and the strength of cavalry is that it is fast, erratic, and leaves with one blow. Attacking the prime minister in Shangqi, isn't that sacrificing one's own strengths and using one's own shortcomings? Zhang He uses soldiers, he is clever and changeable, he will not do such a stupid thing. ”

Zhao Guang thought for a moment and smiled dumbly: "Then what will he do?" ”

"Of course, it's looking for fighters in motion." Wei Ba scratched his head: "I don't know what Zhang He will do now, but I think he will definitely keep moving, so that you can't find him at all." And the prime minister is cautious, he probably won't chase the cavalry with foot soldiers, and he will be led by Zhang He's nose. If you want to say that there is a chance, maybe Ma Jian may leave some opportunities for Zhang He. ”

"You mean, Zhang He will ambush Ma Yan?"

"It's possible." Wei Ba sighed: "I haven't figured it out until now, Prime Minister Weishenme didn't conquer Shangqi, so he sent Ma Jian to attack Yuzhong first?" The soldiers are divided into two roads, thousands of miles apart, which is a big violation of the common sense of soldiers. If they joined forces and stormed Shangqi, why did they end up in this field? ”

Zhao Guang didn't say anything. No one thought this was a problem at first, after all, after the loss of Guanzhong, the strength of the Wei army in Longyou was Guo Huai in Shangqi and Hao Zhao and others in Yuzhong, Zhuge Liang and Ma Jian had absolute advantages, enough to trap them. It's better to trap them in the city than to let them raid everywhere. Zhuge Liang's idea is not wrong, the fault is that he didn't expect to be trapped for a few months and failed to break the city, but he waited for Zhang He's support soldiers.

Of course, Zhang He's coming to help was an accident, and no one thought of it, but as the general who commanded the army, Zhuge Liang did not make due preparations for this, so that he is so passive now, of course, he has to bear the main responsibility.

It's just that it's useless to say that now.

"It's come to this, and it's useless to say more. Ziyu, what should we do now? ”

Wei Ba touched his knees and glanced at Zhao Guang with his head tilted: "I originally wanted to rush to Shangqi immediately." But looking at these two legs, I probably won't be able to move for a while. Let's wait and see, maybe, the situation is not as bad as we thought, although Zhang He is powerful, after all, there are only 10,000 people, and it is a long-distance attack, and his own situation is also very dangerous. Although the clouds are strange, they should also be correct. The prime minister is so cautious, there may not be many flaws that will fall into his hands. Both sides have their own strengths and weaknesses, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer. ”

"Then we'll watch?" Zhao Guang was very surprised: "Is this enough?" ”

"Whether it's enough or not, I don't know. But I know that before the outcome is decided, the prime minister may not be willing to give up Longyou and retreat to Guanzhong. He laughed twice and didn't continue. Zhao Guang pondered for a moment, understood what Wei Ba meant, and nodded in agreement. Wei Ba is now willing to bow his head and let Zhuge Liang enter Guanzhong, but whether Zhuge Liang is willing to enter Guanzhong or not, it is not up to Wei Ba to decide.

In the case of undecided, who can guarantee that Zhuge Liang will not be able to defeat Zhang He? No one dares to say that there is no last resort to the battlefield, after all, Zhang He came from afar, although it is strange, the risk is not small. If he can't catch Zhuge Liang's flaws in a short period of time, the difficulties he faces may not be smaller than Zhuge Liang's.

From Zhuge Liang's point of view, this may be his great opportunity, at this time Wei Ba ran over and said, Prime Minister, come to Guanzhong, Zhuge Liang will not only not see his love, I am afraid that he will also doubt his IQ.

From Wei Ba's point of view, Zhuge Liang won, of course it's not bad, if he really loses, the loss is certainly not small, but as long as he rescues in time, it won't be unbearable. In cold weapon warfare, the greatest loss is not in the battle death, but in the loss and casualties of the rout. As long as the morale of the army can be stabilized in time, the rout can be gathered, and the wounded can be treated, the losses can be reduced to a minimum. With Zhang He's current strength, even if he wins, the loss is not small, and it is simply unrealistic to eat Zhuge Liang's tens of thousands of troops. When they are both defeated, he will come out again to clean up the mess, which is obviously better than coming forward now.

History has changed, Zhuge Liang, who was cautious all his life, led the Northern Expedition of the army for the first time, and met Zhang He, a famous general who had experienced a hundred battles and was known for his changes. Wei Ba was very curious, so he stayed in Longguan and sent a large number of scouts to inquire about the news in the direction of Xiangshang.

Wei Ba didn't know that when he was waiting to see the two famous generals fight, Zhang He had already attacked the grain and grass in Mumen, grabbed the initiative of the battlefield in his hands, and was ready to use these grains and grasses as bait to lure Zhuge Liang to leave Shangqi.
