Zhang Lu unexpectedly defected to Cao Cao and reversed the situation of the Western Route Army. Hanzhong won Cao Cao, Chang'an had become an inner county. Chang'an Li Dian's army went to Anding to join the army of Xu Huang's army in total.
Cao Cao sent 50,000 Chang'an troops to join forces with Zhang Lu's troops to garrison the Han River, putting great pressure on the defense of the subordinates.
At this time, the forces in the northwest battlefield were 250,000 for 430,000 against Jin Xuan.
After Cao Cao's troops were dispatched, Xiahou Chun's troops sent 80,000 troops to Xiliang, Xu Huang's troops sent 150,000 troops to Anding, and the two groups of troops jointly attacked Tianshui.
After calm judgment, Zhou Yu asked Zhang Fei to lead his troops back to defend the lower army.With 150,000 troops from the Eighth Legion, we responded to Cao Cao's 230,000 army.
Shortly after Zhang Fei arrived at Xiabian, Zhang Lu's army had arrived at 130,000.
The offensive and defensive battles around Tianshui and Xiabian began from then on, but the winner was difficult to distinguish and they were in a sticky state.
The arrival of Huang Zhong and Xu Shu's army reversed the situation again.On the offensive and defensive battlefield between the two cities, the troops were invested in 450,000 to 360,000, and Cao Cao's troops were at a disadvantage.
After the unfavorable battle, Cao Cao decisively withdrew his troops.
However, Huang Zhong and Xu Shu led their troops north to Tianshui, intending to launch an attack on the Gucheng Xiliang.
Faced with the attack of Jin Xuan's 200,000 troops, Xiahou Chun, Xu Zijiang and others discussed strategies to retreat to the enemy.
Xu Zijiang said: The enemy army is now twice as powerful as our army, and the enemy's combat power and weapons and equipment are not weaker than our army.Zhou Yu and Xu Shu are both resourceful generals.The enemy is now leading the siege equipment, and it is intended to win.Xiliangcheng County is a rare person. Although the city is still strong, the food and grass can only be supplied for one month, and our army is in danger.It is better to abandon Xiliang and walk the small road outside the border to reach peace. Although the road is long and dangerous, my 100,000 soldiers will have no life.When our army reaches An Ding, the An Ding soldiers can reach 280,000, and advance can attack and retreat can defend.
Xiahou Chun said: However, the lord has no news. I will leave without a fight. Will the lord punish him?
Xu Zi will say: If the lord punishes him, I will be willing to replace him.
The generals were moved by it, and the army immediately retreated to Anding.
Huang Zhong and Xu Shu got Xiliang without bloodshed, entered the city to calm the people, and were stationed for the time being.
Jin Xuan received the news and ordered Huang Zhong and Xu Shu's troops, Zhang Fei, Lu Xun troops, Ma Teng and Zhou Yu's troops to establish the Western Route Army, with Huang Zhong as the chief general and Zhou Yu as the military advisor. The army attacked and defended, and they were all cut off.
Huang Zhong negotiated with Zhou Yu and decided to have a total of 250,000 troops stationed by the former Zhang Fei's troops and Ma Teng's troops; while Huang Zhong's troops stationed in Tianshui.
At the same time, the First Legion and Second Legion were merged into the Central Army, with Guan Yu as the main general and Pang Tong as the military advisor.
Because of the convenience of mobilization, the three armies did not disrupt the original legion. After the affiliation between the legion remained unchanged, Jin Xuan ordered the former prefect of Xiliang Li Hui and the garrison Liang Xing to take office immediately.
Zhou Feng was also appointed as the prefect of Tianshui and Luo Tong was the prefect of Tianshui.
At this point, this battle basically completed the strategic intentions envisioned before the war, and obtained the four counties of Jiangxia, Jiangling, Tianshui and Xiangyang. Among the four counties, Xiangyang and Tianshui have very important strategic significance. There are only six counties of Tianshui, Xiabian, Yong'an, Xiangyang, Jianye and Shouchun in the cash border counties. The other counties have become inner counties, and Tianshui, Xiabian, Yong'an and Jianye can all attack without considering the issue of defense.
The Jinxuan troops only need to station troops in these six counties to effectively protect the inner counties.
The militia plan originally designed by Jin Xuan played a key role in the defense of the inner county at this time. Each county had 30,000 militias. These militias were all young and middle-aged, who were trained in the slack farming period and worked as farmers during the busy farming period.
This move allowed the Jinxuan Nei County garrison to only 5,000, and could basically complete the defensive tasks, because once a war broke out in the inner county, these militia went to the warehouses of each county to collect weapons and armor and carry out military operations.
This move has also greatly alleviated the financial pressure.
This war transformed the strength of Jin Xuan and the coalition forces from absolute disadvantage to relative disadvantage, from 1.35 million to 1.8 million before the war, to 1.45 million to 1.61 million after the war.
Liu Biao became the biggest victim of this war, and his sphere of influence decreased from 360,000 troops in the original five counties to 200,000 troops in the current two counties. The control of Shangyong County was destroyed because of Yuan Shao's long-term garrison.
The second was Liu Bei. He reduced his troops from the original 240,000 troops to the current 170,000 troops. His main counselor Chen Gong was captured and general Han Zhong was killed.
Yuan Shao's losses this time were that Yan Liang and Feng Ji's troops stationed in Jiangling had a total of 80,000 people. Yan Liang and Feng Ji surrendered, and the entire army of soldiers was destroyed.
Cao Cao's losses in this war were Tianshui County and more than 20,000 soldiers, but due to Zhang Lu's surrender, his strength increased.
After this war, these princes no longer worked together as they did during the war, and they were intrigue and conflicts gradually emerged.
Liu Biao was most uncomfortable at this time. Although he was determined to take it back, he did not have enough troops to defend himself in front of Jin Xuan's army.
Finally, Liu Biao decided to surrender to Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei followed closely behind.
In this way, Yuan Shao's strength increased greatly, and he controlled the thirteen counties of Dai County, Nanpi, Jinyang, Pingyuan, Yecheng, Beiping, Xiangping, Xiapi, Beihai, Puyang, Xuzhou, Xinye and Shangyong. His troops reached 900,000 (some newly recruited soldiers) while Cao Cao controlled the ten counties of Chang'an, Xuchang, Wancheng, Luoyang, Hongnong, Chenliu, Qiaocheng, Anding, Hanzhong, Runan, and other ten counties also reached 800,000 (some newly recruited soldiers). After the new sphere of influence was divided, Yuan Shao's Shangyong and Xinye counties negotiated with Cao Cao because of the division with the eastern counties, and the above Yong and Xinye counties were exchanged for Runan and Qiaocheng counties.
After re-arrangement, the world has become a strong momentum.Under Cao Cao's instigation, the Han Emperor issued an edict to meet in Runan, and Jin Xuan, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao all led their troops to attend the meeting.
The emperor issued an edict, which agreed to take the area occupied by the three existing princes as the boundary and not to invade the territory without reason.
He also named Jin Xuan as the king of the Central Committee and Changsha as the capital.
Cao Cao was the King of the West and Xuchang was the capital.
Yuan Shao was the King of the East and Nanpi was the capital.
Jin Xuan and Zhuge Liang and others discussed the plan, and Zhuge Liang said: Now that the new policies of each county have not been implemented, the people are suffering and exhausted, it is not appropriate to continue using troops.When Cao Cao and Yuan Shao attacked him urgently, they would be in harmony. If they did not attack, they would be divided.Then let people get apart these two people, and make them fight to become enemies, and then they can be destroyed in one fell swoop.
The world has returned to peace, and Jin Xuan’s new policy has been implemented in various counties one after another.The military farming system was also learned by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.The country is gradually enriching money and food, and people's lives are reviving.
Cao Cao sent 50,000 Chang'an troops to join forces with Zhang Lu's troops to garrison the Han River, putting great pressure on the defense of the subordinates.
At this time, the forces in the northwest battlefield were 250,000 for 430,000 against Jin Xuan.
