When Liu Bei and Sima Yi heard the news that Nan Zheng was defeated and Zhang Lu was killed, they were shocked. Sima Yi advised: "Lord, there is a shortage of food and grass in Fushui Pass. If we only guard Fushui Pass, our 60,000 troops would probably be cut off in less than half a month. For the current plan, we can move our troops to Zitong City and then send a general to guard Jiameng Pass and Fushui Pass. This will not only allow us to worry about military rations, but also have a place to move. Jiameng Pass is more than 300 miles from Fushui Pass, and there are more than 500,000 people in it. We can force all young and strong men to use it for me. In this way, we can obtain 100,000 troops and we can temporarily defend this place."

"It is not a benevolent act!" Liu Xuande still had a poker face that was not indifferent to his emotions.

"At present, you and I are in desperate situations, and I can still care about benevolence and righteousness!" Sima Yi sighed: "My lord, please be honest, because Lu Bu controls public opinion in the world, under the slander of his gang, you have become a hypocrite with false benevolence and righteousness. Everyone in Yizhou believes that you harmed Tao Qian at the beginning. They all thought you would harm Liu Zhang in Yizhou. The people are so kind. But lord, you have been in Yizhou for a short time, so how can you win the trust of the people? If that is the case, why should you compassionate with these naughty people who fear power but do not have virtue?"

"How can the Shu army with 60,000 unstable morale, and the 100,000 straw-woven civilians compete with Lu Bu's powerful generals and warriors?" Liu Bei was still a little self-aware of himself.

"Lord, we only need to defend temporarily, and then we send people to the Southern Barbarians, Qian Qiang, and bribe tribal leaders to send troops to attack Lu Bu's rear. Lu Bu divided his troops to resist, so we can take advantage of the opportunity!" Sima Yi suddenly remembered another point: "I heard that Lu Bu was determined to be emperor, and Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and other generals of the Han Dynasty were loyal to the Han Dynasty. If we send people to persuade them to rebel and attack Luoyang, there would be a great chaos in Lu Bu's territory, and we would have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos."

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this and asked again: "With Zhongda's intention, who should I send to guard the two passes?"

"Liu Zhang is dead, and all the military generals under Liu Zhang surrender to Lu Bu, and they all have a lot of money and titles. I am worried that Liu Qian, Deng Xian, Yang Huai, and Zhuo Ying, all Shu generals have the idea of ​​surrendering to the enemy. The lord can only send General Guan Yu to guard Fushui Pass to be the main force of Lu Bu. General Zhang Fei is sent to guard Jiameng Pass to be the main force of Huang Zhong. The lord sits in Zitong and rescues in time." Sima Yi said Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he was worried. The lord's two brothers are brave enough. But each has his own shortcomings. I am afraid that Lu Bu will take advantage of their shortcomings and quickly break through these two passes. However, now he is a dead horse as a living horse, so he can only send them two.

"Who should I send to bribe the Southern Barbarians and Qiang, who should I send to convince Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun?" Liu Bei asked again.

"Chen Qunfeng is handsome and has the style of a famous scholar. He will definitely be respected by the barbarians. If he goes there, he will achieve twice the result with half the effort and will definitely be able to complete the task. Yi Ji is eloquent. You can go to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun." Sima Yi sighed inwardly, the talents under the lord's tent were withered, which was far worse than Lu Bu.

Zhang was left behind in Nanzheng and was responsible for the mobilization of military funds. Huang Zhong, Zhuge Liang, Zhang He, Ma Chao, and Pang De led the troops to Jiameng Pass.

Zhuge Liang pointed to Jiameng Pass and sighed: "Jiameng Pass Peak connects to Yulei. The ground connects to Jincheng, tied the Jian Pavilion and brought Jiameng, and sat in Jiameng and pillowed with Baishui. It is truly the heroic establishment of heaven."

Zhang He said: "What the army said is that Jiameng Pass is the main transportation route of Qin and Shu. The Jialing River and Bailong River meet. It connects Hanzhong by land, goes to Chengdu and goes down the Jialing River to reach Langzhong, an important town in Brazil. The geographical location is very important. Obtaining this pass can choke Liu Bei's throat. However, in front and behind this pass, the mountains overlap, the dangerous rocks and cliffs, the trees are bleak, and the steep and majestic. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. I am afraid that the difficulty of attacking is no less than that of Yangping Pass."

Zhuge Liang sighed: "In the fifth year of King Shen of Zhou, King Ba and King Shu fought against each other because of hatred. King Hui of Qin took the opportunity to send Zhang Yi and Sima Cuo to attack Shu. The Qin army traveled southwest of Xianyang, passed Qipan Pass and entered Sichuan, and passed through Chaotianyi to Jianmen Pass. It was blocked. A fierce battle occurred at Jiameng Pass. The situation was very fierce. I think Sima Yi should leave an arrangement here." Zhuge Liang looked down on Sima Yi very much, but since Yangping Pass, he began to regard this stray dog ​​as his real opponent.

Not long after, Deputy General Huang Quan arrived and brought the latest news from the Military Information Department: "Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei to lead 20,000 troops."

"Zhang Fei? A reckless man!" Zhang He had met Zhang Fei several times in his early years and looked down on this brave but unscrupulous man.

Zhuge Liang shook his head gently and said, "General Junyi, don't underestimate Zhang Fei. This person has been following Liu Bei for a long time and has suffered many defeats. The hardships make people grow up. Now he occasionally learns military books with Sima Yi, and his personality is much calmer. Once a reckless man becomes smart, he should not be underestimated."

Huang Zhong agreed with Zhuge Liang's view that he used to be a brave but not a resourceful man. Since following his lord, he often participated in the lord's on-the-scenes training organization. The military literacy training conducted by the lord and his military advisors in combination with the examples of the war, which made Huang Zhong improve quickly, and he gradually changed from a general to a handsome man.

Ma Chao chuckled and said, "Kong Ming, do you say this a little bit more ambitions and ruin your own might?"

Zhuge Liang looked serious: "Brother Meng Qi, do you still remember that your adoptive father once told us that when facing the enemy, you must fully estimate the enemy's advantages and disadvantages, and do not underestimate the enemy's advantages, and do not overestimate the enemy's disadvantages."

"I still remember to underestimate the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically..." Ma Chao said with a smile: "Aren't we discussing strategic issues now?"

Pang De smiled and said, "Meng Qi, what we are discussing now seems to be how to attack Jiameng Pass. This is a tactical issue." Since Pang De no longer calls Ma Chao the Young Master, their friendship has become much more sincere than before.

"Whether Zhang Fei is stupid or smart now, we must attack Jiameng Pass." Ma Chao didn't understand why he had to waste time discussing Zhang Fei's IQ.

"From the dangers of Jiameng Pass and Zhang Fei's experience in the army, we can only be smart and not capable of attacking." Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Meng Qi obeys the order, you first lead 5,000 cavalry to the front of the pass to meet Zhang Fei. This person is very confident in his martial arts. Meng Qi, try his skills first!"

"Good!" Ma Chao is not a person who likes to speak. He prefers to use actions instead of speech instead of thoughts. This is why Lu Bu is still not at ease to let him stand alone.

Ma Chao led three thousand cavalry to Jiameng Pass. When Zhang Fei looked at the closing, Ma Chao was leaping on the horse with a spear, a white horse, a silver spear, a lion helmet and a beast belt, with outstanding talents, and a armored radiant. Zhang Fei looked at himself black again, and felt a little ashamed of himself. This feeling made Zhang Fei very angry. If it was possible that he wanted to kill all the handsome guys in the world who were more handsome than him, of course there was a little guy who had no chance or courage to kill in his life. That was Lu Bu Lu Fengxian. He couldn't kill Lu Bu. Can I kill this little guy?

When Zhang Fei saw that Ma Chao had only 3,000 troops and all of them were cavalry, he seemed to be trying to fight him one-on-one, just like Ma Chao verbally abused: "The ring-eyed thief, the eunuch Zhang, I heard that you have good shooting skills. I will meet you very much. If you can stab you to death with one shot, it will save you the trouble of siege."

Zhang Fei was thick outside and thin inside, and he left deputy general Liu Yan to lead troops to defend the city. He brought 6,000 troops out of the city, because he could see that Ma Chao's 3,000 troops were all elite soldiers, and most of the troops he led were temporary strong men. If he fought in a mess later, if he brought 3,000 troops, he would definitely not be his opponent.

Zhang Fei waved his spear and mobilized the black horse under his crotch, and came to the front of the formation: "Ma Chao, Ma Mengqi, find a cheap father, come here to show off his power!" Zhang Fei was mocking Ma Chao's behavior of recognizing Lu Bu as his adoptive father.

Ma Chao was furious: "You are a meat seller, and you dare to laugh at me, let me learn about your eighteen ways to kill pigs!"

Zhang Feixiang came from his background, so he worked hard to learn calligraphy and painting, and learned the way the children of aristocratic families were just to make others not despise him because of his background. In fact, everything he did did not arouse much respect from the children of aristocratic families, at least Liu Ba did not take him seriously.

When Zhang Fei heard Ma Chao tell him about his background, he was furious and waved his snake spear to fight with Ma Chao's tiger-headed gold gun.

The two fought together for more than fifty rounds, and Ma Chao could see that if he had not been mentioned by his adoptive father, he would have fought with Zhang Fei endlessly.

Ma Chao wanted to cheer up and assassinate Zhang Fei, but this would take at least two hundred rounds away.

Huang Zhong stood on the high ground several miles away, picked up the Qianli Mile Mile to watch everything on the battlefield in front of him. He nodded slightly and smiled: "Meng Qi's shooting skills are more exquisite, his physical strength is stronger, and his momentum is no less than that of Zhang Fei. This battle will definitely win!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, shook his head slightly and said, "This battle is invincible. After a hundred rounds, the gold must be called to withdraw the troops."

Huang Zhong was stunned: "Why is this?"

"If we want to attack Jiameng Pass, we must do this to make Zhang Fei proud. After Zhang Fei is proud, we will not be so calm. Only then can we have the opportunity to take advantage of it and let him stay away from Jiameng Pass."

After a hundred rounds, a loud gong sounded from the Central Army. Although Ma Chao was determined to fight for dozens of rounds and stab Zhang Fei to death, his military orders were as good as a mountain. He could only sweep a shot and jump out of the circle.

Zhang Fei knew that his mission was to defend Jiameng Pass. When he saw Ma Chao go back, he did not pursue him.

Ma Chao had a full lunch, discussed with Zhuge Liang, Huang Quan, Huang Zhong, Zhang He and others, and agreed to act according to Zhuge Liang's plan.

In the afternoon, Ma Chao went to fight again and said wildly: "Isn't Zhuge joining the army just now? He joined the army with great trouble. After fifty rounds, I will stab you down on the horse. The ring-eyed thief, the eunuch Zhang, dare to come down and die again?"

Zhang Fei was furious and felt that the helmet was too heavy and it affected his performance. He simply threw away the helmet and wrapped it in a headscarf. He dressed up like he did when he was selling meat, and went out to fight with Ma Chao.

Seeing Zhang Fei's outfit, Ma Chao sneered loudly: "Ring-eyed thief, you are really a mountain villager who kills pigs and sells meat. He is vulgar and low-level. You might as well take off your armor and fight with your master bare hands!"

Zhang Fei roared angrily: "Shameless child, sharp-tongued, I will teach you a good lesson for your father Ma Teng!"
