Chapter 86 Xiangyang Car Accident
Start from Yingchuan County and go south through Nanyang County to reach Xiangyang.
??Yes, Yuan Shu is in Nanyang County now, but Fei Qian did not visit Yuan Shu, mainly because Fei Qian felt it was meaningless. Moreover, it is said that when Yuan Shu first came here, he went out to do activities, inspecting people''s livelihood, repairing roads, inspecting military camps, etc. to make his presence felt. However, unfortunately, he fell off his horse during an activity and was injured. He is still recovering from his injuries in Yuan''s Mansion. …
??Although Fei Qian expressed limited doubts about this rumor, after all, it would be fine if ordinary people had never ridden a horse. And Yuan Shu, the direct son of the Yuan family, could be said to have been exposed to horses since he was a child. How could he be so easily injured?
Although this possibility cannot be ruled out, Mo Feiqian still thinks that another thing may be more reliable, that is, he heard that Yuan Shu and Nanyang Prefect Zhang Zi did not get along and had several conflicts, so Yuan Shu simply stayed there It’s in Yuan’s Mansion…
Which one is true and which one is false, Fei Qian cannot completely confirm. However, Fei Qian couldn''t care about these matters, so he simply didn''t go to see Yuan Shu, since he didn''t have much friendship anyway.
?So he didn’t stop and went straight through Nanyang County.
If there are some mountainous areas from Luoyang to Yingchuan, then from Nanyang to Xiangyang it is simply a flat plain. Except for a few rivers, you can simply run all the way to the end. Therefore, in fact, there are no obstacles on the way to Xiangyang. .
From Nanyang to Xiangyang, the entire terrain is like a huge cornucopia. Many water sources and rivers gather together, bringing abundant irrigation capabilities. Therefore, this place is rich in products and has a large population. It is one of the rare treasures.
But the location of Xiangyang is destined to be a strategic location that must be fought over by all countries during the period of division.
?If you don’t see Xiangyang in person and understand the terrain along the way, Fei Qian really can’t understand the importance of this place.
A strategic location in ancient times was nothing more than a transportation fortress, a place that was rich and rich in products, or a place with dangerous terrain and mountains and rivers that could serve as a barrier.
Xiangyang, on the other hand, was unlucky enough to have all these factors.
? Fei Qian has roughly summarized the Xiangyang area along the way:
Transportation in Xiangyang - Nanyang is to the north, Yingchuan is to the northeast, and Luoyang is to the northwest. It is basically a flat river, and you can get there at dawn...
Not to mention the products of Xiangyang, it is simply a land of fish and rice. It was also a famous grain-producing area until later generations...
The terrain of Xiangyang - there are Dabie Mountains and Tongbai Mountains to the east, the Huaihe River to the east, the Qinling Mountains to the west, and the Xichuan Mountains to the west. They are all natural barriers, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
More importantly, if you want to avoid these natural mountains and go south or north, Xiangyang is the best choice. Because Xiangyang is located on the basin plain, which is a large gap between the Dabie Mountains, Tongbai Mountains and Qinling Mountains, whoever occupies it will have an advantage, and Xiangyang is located at the intersection of Tang River and Baihe River, where the two rivers merge. Then it flows into the Han River. Xiangyang City is built on the confluence of these three rivers. It is blocked by the river in front and supported by Xian Mountain, Hutou Mountain and many other small mountains in the back. In the entire Xiangyang area, only Xiangyang City is the only attack point.
?In this way, whoever occupies this place will have a chokehold on the territory.
In later generations, Fei Qian always thought that Xiangyang was just a city. Why was it fought over and over, why couldn''t it be bypassed and some leap-frog tactics were used. Now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that it was not the ancients who were stupid, but the ancients. It’s really unavoidable…
At the beginning, Zhuge Liang''s idea was to attack Wei in two ways. One way was the old routine. I will not talk about the six or seven attempts without success. Let''s just talk about the Xiangyang route. If you start from Xiangyang, you only need to conquer Wancheng and Fancheng, and then go to Xiangyang. Point to the north is Xuchang, and there is no fortress to stop it. It is equivalent to kicking open the gate of the Central Plains, and stabbing Cao Cao directly in the throat with a sharp knife...
??If Cao Cao deploys heavy troops to defend here, then Xiliang will definitely be finished...
But what Zhuge Liang didn''t expect was that he only thought about how to deal with Cao Cao. He didn''t expect that Xiangyang was equally important to Soochow. If he started from Xiangyang and went south along the Han River, he could directly attack Soochow''s home base. What do you think of Sun Quan? With Liu Bei''s neck stuck every day, can I sleep peacefully in Jiangdong? How can we make an alliance if you are holding someone else''s neck? So Soochow could give up the good situation and stab Guan Yu in the back...
You must know that after Guan Yu captured Fancheng, Cao Cao''s first reaction was to move the capital and run away...
How can such a piece of land not be missed?
??No wonder the Wei, Shu and Wu of the Three Kingdoms fought over this piece of fat. They pulled out the face, kicked the crotch, stabbed the waist, and dared to use any tricks...
Fei Qian looked at the towering city gate of Xiangyang from a distance and couldn''t help but feel a little bit. Guan Yu really succeeded in Xiangyang and failed in Xiangyang. At that time, the floods flooded the seven armies and the power of China was really unheard of. It''s a pity that this life is ups and downs too fast. Some…
Along the way, Fei Qian encountered some ill-intentioned people who secretly looked at Fei Qian and his party, but when he saw that Zhang Zhao and others were protected by regular soldiers, he seemed to have considered it a little and realized that there was so much meat on the road. There is no need to chew on Fei Qian''s fleshy bone, so it can be considered a near miss and a safe arrival.
So now that he has arrived in Xiangyang, Zhang Zhao''s mission has been completed, so when he was approaching Xiangyang City, he said goodbye to Fei Qian, took a carriage and his soldiers, turned a corner, and headed to the military camp in the west outside Xiangyang City. Go and exchange official documents for delivery.
?So Fei Qian and Uncle Fu drove their carriage slowly towards Xiangyang City.
Not long after Fei Qian and Uncle Fu paid the city gate tax and entered the city, they heard a commotion outside the city. In the distance, they saw dust flying in the direction of Nanyang, and a group of defeated soldiers who looked like refugees, running away without their helmets and armor. Come over.
There was also a panic on the top of Xiangyang City. Apparently the defenders on the Xiangyang side did not know whether they were friends or foes, so they directly ordered the drawbridge to be closed and the city gate to be closed.
?At this time, the startled people became even more panicked. Those who were still at the city gate hurriedly entered the city, and those who were closer to the city gate also crowded crazily into the city.
A carriage was just at the gate of the city. It seemed to be leaving the city, but when it turned out that the momentum was wrong, the driver was about to turn around and come back. However, the crazy crowd rushed towards the city regardless of looking at the city. How could there be any space or place for the carriage to turn around? The coachman could only shout loudly and pull the reins hard...
I don’t know if it was hit by something or how it irritated the horse pulling the cart. The horse was suddenly frightened, neighed and ran out diagonally. After knocking down several people in a row, they didn’t know it was because of the wheel. Something happened, and one wheel of the entire carriage flew into the air. It turned sideways and hit the carriage driven by Fei Qian and Uncle Fu...
Fei Qian only had time to have a thought flash through his mind. He didn’t expect that there would also be a car accident in the Eastern Han Dynasty...
Traffic safety comes first...drink without driving, and drive without drinking... The author Jundu thinks this book is really educational, so please vote for it and save it... Haha...
