Chapter 349
It has to be said that Ling Bao does have two talents, her real force should be similar to that of Li Dian and Yu Jin, and she can be regarded as a general, and she is also very loyal to Liu Zhang, but she is only a fighting general, and her leading ability is worse than that of Li Dian and Yu Jin much.

Seeing that Deng Xian was killed, Ling Bao dared to step up to one-on-one with Ma Chao, which showed that he still had some confidence in his martial arts. Perhaps Ling Bao had never met a master who could defeat him when he was in Sichuan.

But this time Lingbao is very unfortunate. Although Ma Chao's current strength is not as good as Lu Bu's and a little bit worse than Zhao Yun's, he can definitely be ranked among the top five existences in the world today.

Yu Jin was defeated by Ma Chao in eight or nine rounds, Zhang Yun fought Ma Chao for [-] rounds and then ran away. Cao Hong fought Ma Chao for [-] rounds, but his strength was weak and his sword skills were scattered. picked.

After ten rounds of fighting with Ma Chao, Ling Bao realized that Ma Chao was really strong and she really couldn't beat her, so she wanted to run away.

Ma Chao finally waited for someone to come out to fight him, so how could he just let him go? Moreover, if a second-rate general fights a super-first-rate general, if he tries his best and holds the determination to die, he can still hold on for a while. up.But once you lose your fighting spirit and think about running away, unless you are very good at running when you can't fight, the end will be very miserable.

So, just as Ling Bao was about to turn her horse's head and run back, Ma Chao stabbed her in the chest, and then she dismounted from the horse.

Ma Chao beheaded the opponent's two generals, then pointed his spear, and led his soldiers to charge towards the opponent.

Liu Huan saw Ma Chao's bravery and no longer dared to brag about it. He was so frightened that he quickly retreated to Jiameng Pass and defended it.

The main generals all ran away, and the tens of thousands of Yizhou soldiers who still had the heart to meet the enemy ran towards the pass, while Ma Chao led his troops to chase and kill them, and wanted to take the opportunity to rush into the pass.

Fortunately, Fu Jin and Xiang Zuo ordered to shoot arrows on the wall to stop the pursuers, so that Liu Hui escaped smoothly.

Seeing that Ma Chao was about to rush into the pass, Fu Jin didn't care about the more than 2000 soldiers outside who hadn't had time to come in, so he quickly ordered to shoot arrows hard, no matter whether it was the enemy or his own people, they would all be shot to death.

Seeing the crowd of bows and crossbows, Ma Chao was blocked for a moment, and the other side took the opportunity to close the door.

Ma Chao felt great hatred. If Zhang Wei and Yang Bai had marched here early, they might be able to use this opportunity to seize Jiameng Pass today.

Seeing that the door was closed, Ma Chao knew that there was no chance, so he returned with his troops and captured more than 1000 Yizhou soldiers.

Later, Ma Chao sent people to report the victory to Zhang Wei, and urged Zhang Wei to march quickly, and attack the pass when the morale of the defenders was greatly damaged.

Seeing that Ma Chao had won the battle and beheaded two generals of the opponent, Zhang Wei didn't dare to delay the battle, otherwise if Ma Chao reported to Zhang Lu, maybe Zhang Lu would replace them.

Therefore, the Hanzhong army went straight to Jiameng Pass, and began to build weapons, preparing for a strong attack.

Liu Huan did not dare to go out to look for death this time. While ordering his soldiers to prepare various supplies for guarding the pass, he also sent someone to deliver a message to Liu Zhang, because he was really afraid of Ma Chao now.

After Liu Zhang received the news, he was so frightened that he couldn't sit still. Ma Chao of Xiliang really lived up to his reputation, and even killed two of his generals. Now the Hanzhong army is preparing to attack Jiameng Pass.

If Jiameng Pass is lost, the Hanzhong army can pass through Daba Mountain and enter Shuzhong, and it will be dangerous at that time.

This time Liu Zhang no longer listened to the advice of Huang Quan and his group, and made up his mind to ask Zhang Wu for help again.

Liu Zhang wanted to send Zhang Song to Jingzhou again, but Zhang Song directly refused.

"My lord, since it was Gongheng who invited the reinforcements last time, why not send him this time. If I let my subordinates go, I'm afraid they will suspect me of colluding with outsiders again."

"Ah? Here, Gongheng, why don't you go there again?" Liu Zhang had no choice but to ask Huang Quan.

Of course Huang Quan didn't want to go, but now that the front line has suffered a defeat, the situation is a bit critical. If Liu Hui can't defend Jiameng Pass and let Hanzhong soldiers enter Shuzhong, there will be chaos.

Moreover, it was Huang Quan who first spoke to dissuade Liu Zhang from asking Zhang Wu for help. If anything happened, Huang Quan would be responsible. Don't think that Liu Zhang is easy to bully because he is weak, and honest people will get angry.

Therefore, Huang Quan had no choice but to come to Xiangyang again and ask Zhang Wu for help. Before leaving, he suggested that Liu Zhang transfer Yang Huai and Gao Pei, the governors of Baishui, to guard the Fushui Pass. Block the enemy.

This time Liu Zhang followed Huang Quan's suggestion and ordered Yang Huai and Gao Pei to go to Fushui Pass, while the rest of the generals guarded the passes.

Why didn't Zhang Song go?
Because Zhang Wu made an appointment with Zhang Song a long time ago, until Zhang Wubing arrived at the city of Chengdu, he should not take the initiative to contact Jingzhou or contact people in Jingzhou, and try to keep a distance as if he did not know each other.

Zhang Wu knew very well that in order to give full play to the role of an undercover agent, he must not be exposed in advance. If Zhang Song had more contact with him, he would inevitably be suspicious of interested people, such as smart people like Huang Quan.

For Zhang Wu, Zhang Song has now completed the two most important things he explained. One is to insert Li Yan'an into Jiangzhou to lead the army and assist Yan Yan in guarding Jiangzhou. This will allow the Jingzhou navy to enter Chengdu along the Yangtze River Create conditions.

The second thing is to let Meng Da control the defense of the north gate of Chengdu. When the time comes, as long as the Jingzhou army can approach the city, Meng Da can open the city gate and let Zhang Wu enter the city.

As the second in command of Yizhou and the leader of the local faction, it is very easy to arrange these two things.Therefore, before that, Zhang Song and others must not be exposed, because once Zhang Song is suspected, his arrangements for the past two years will also be suspected.

Therefore, since Zhang Song separated from Zhang Wu, in more than two years, he has not contacted Zhang Wu on his own initiative once, and usually does not care about outside affairs, and only waits for Zhang Wu's arrival.

Of course, there is not no connection between Zhang Wu and Zhang Song. The steward in charge of the kitchen in Zhang Song's house was sent by Zhang Wu.

The current Zhang Wu is not the Zhang Wu of two years ago. Now he is the chariot general of the Han Dynasty, Jingzhou Mu and Yangzhou Mu, the overlord of the south of the Yangtze River, counselors like clouds, generals like rain, and more than 20 troops under his command.

Zhang Song was pleasantly surprised by Zhang Wu's development speed. It seems that his choice was right.

As soon as Huang Quan came, Zhang Wu knew that there was an excuse to send troops, and the plan to destroy Shu could begin.

This time Zhang Wu readily agreed to Huang Quan's request, but he made two points.

Yizhou still has to provide food and grass.

There are several major mountains between Jingzhou and Hanzhong, and it is impossible to directly send out a large army to attack Hanzhong, so this time we will enter the interior of Yizhou and join forces with the Yizhou army to deal with the Hanzhong army.

Regarding the first point, Huang Quan can readily agree. Yizhou, the land of abundance, has not had any major wars for so many years, and has accumulated countless food and grass.

But on the second point, Huang Quan was unwilling to agree, because once the Jingzhou army entered Yizhou, there would be some risks. What if you have other ideas?
Huang Quan is a representative of the Yizhou native faction, and he is naturally repelling foreign forces. If Liu Zhang hadn't forced him to do nothing, he would not have come to ask Zhang Wu for help. He was also very wary of Zhang Wu.
