Chapter 3406 Businessman seeks profit(2/2)
Some were shouting that they would quickly send heavy troops to block the important roads while the Cavalry Army did not arrive, and to "stabilize the walls and clear the fields" in the junction of Youzhou and Jizhou, so as not to leave any manpower and wealth for the Cavalry Army...
That’s right, no matter which part of the Jizhou guys were, they didn’t mention the reinforcements. It seemed that as long as the world preserved peace in Jizhou, it didn’t matter what elsewhere was!
As a result, before Jizhou's men came to a final conclusion about Youzhou, they had problems themselves!
Shanggu Pass is a place where military strategists must fight for. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were already many wars and fierce competition. It is also one of the eight passes of Taihang. Logically speaking, this place should be very important and then the troops should be guarded. But in fact, this pass is a "constrained pass"...
The role played by Shanggu Pass in history has always been very embarrassing, not as glorious as people imagine. The adjective of "a man is invincible to the enemy" has never been related to it. The reason is very simple. There are mountains here, but the mountains are not dangerous, and there are rivers, but they are not very urgent. Although it is a pass, you must guard the mountain on the outside line. Otherwise, once the mountain is lost, Shanggu Pass will have no danger to defend, and you will be defeated without a fight.
After the guards of Shanggu Pass learned that Youzhou was in shock, they immediately burned down the simple wooden bridge originally built on the Juma River and were ready for battle. Sure enough, the troops from Bingzhou were led by Yan Rou until the front of the Pass. They wanted to build a floating bridge on the Juma River twice, but were discovered by the guards and destroyed it with rockets. The two sides were in a stalemate.
But what Liu Zhi, the commander of Shanggu Pass, did not expect that the alarm he sent did not welcome reinforcements, but visitors appeared...
Juhu.
Liu Zhi was originally a descendant of Julu Liu Zhi.
This Liu family son, who was supposed to be a founding hero of the Eastern Han Dynasty and should have enjoyed the rich returns brought by his ancestors' investment in Liu Xiu, was directly destitute from a first-class family to a poor family because of his involvement in the rebellion case of King Liu Ying of Chu.
Not everyone can accept such ups and downs in family situations...
The same is true for Ju Hu. He has no favoritism for the Cao family, Xiahou family.
Ju Hu believes that the current difficulties faced by his family, and even the entire Jizhou, are the crimes of the Cao family. If it weren't for Cao Cao, then his Ju family would at least be much better and more glorious now!
When Ju Hu met Liu Zhi, he said straight to the point that the people of Jizhou should fight for Jizhou!
