The numbers that Light Screen mentioned before are not intuitive to everyone.

But at this time, one by one was laid out, and everyone could see clearly: three rebellions in a year!

And once it happened in the center of power, both times it was forced to rebel by corvee!

Cao Cao, Cao Cao, how cruel were the taxes and corvees under his rule?

Liu Bei sighed in his heart, and at the same time he became more determined about his dream:

Such a thief like Cao Cao, such a thief like Sun Quan, what is the use of taking over the world?

[In 218, the twenty-third year of Jian'an, Hou Yin was the most regretful.

First of all, Hou Yin's location is the best, right behind Fancheng, where Cao Ren must send his troops to rescue.

Hou Yin's move was tantamount to Liu Bei marrying Xiangxiang - there was a fire in the backyard, Cao Ren Pangde quickly returned to help and surrounded Wancheng.

But there are two disadvantages. First, it was winter at that time, and the dry season was not the time for the navy to show its strength, so the second master could only lie dormant.

The second is that it was still a strategic stalemate at that time, or to put it more clearly, Liu Bei was still blocked at Yangping Pass by Xia Houyuan. 】

The generals looked back at the map behind them. Although Wancheng was indeed undefendable, its location was extremely important.

Guan Yu touched his beard and judged:

According to the habits of Cao Cao's thieves, most of the people of Wancheng were recruited in large numbers to repair Fancheng's city defenses. In this way, Hou Yin rebelled.

This name has been engraved in the second master's heart. Guang Yu also admired it after Guang Mu mentioned it so many times.

Hou Yin is the guard general of Wancheng. He could have acted as an aid to the tiger, but he chose to protect the people by beating stones with eggs. He is a righteous man and must be respected!

Liu Bei thought about it: Yangping Pass is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is a great pass in the world. I remember that it will take next year to break Yangping Pass... Oh no, 219 years, right?

The first month of the year 219! Huang Zhong learned to answer quickly. He remembered this time very clearly!

Zhang Fei curled his lips and said, forget it, I, Lao Zhang, will remember you right away, I don’t envy you.

When comparing the light curtain to Liu Bei's marriage, Liu Bei moved his lips and had only two words:

Nai Gong!

[This year, Cao Cao did not send troops as a deterrent. First of all, Cao Cao believed that Yangping Pass was difficult to break. This was something Cao Cao himself learned.

When he attacked Zhang Lu, he was able to conquer Yangping Pass entirely due to luck, but he was replaced by Xia Houyuan, who was more experienced in battles. Cao Cao did not believe that Liu Bei could make waves.

Secondly, Guan Yu gradually gained strength in Xiangfan, and Cao Cao himself did not believe that Cao Ren could hold it.

And we all know what happened later, which is why Dingjun Mountain is still talked about by people today:

Liu Bei led his people to play a big interlude, and then the seventy-year-old veteran formed a formation to kill the enemy commander. A plot that was not even dared to be written in the story happened.

With the death of the coach, Yangping Pass was no longer safe, and Cao Cao was forced to give up his deterrent posture and support Hanzhong. 】

The smile on Liu Bei's face slowly widened, and he had only one thought in his mind:

It turns out that Thief Cao, you broke through Yangping Pass because you were lucky!

It's a pity that if it weren't for Cao Cao's support, my eldest brother would have defeated Yangping Pass head-on! Breaking this majestic pass will shock the entire army! Zhang Fei is very discerning.

But it is indeed not bad. In an era when siege equipment was rudimentary, very few Xiongguan could be attacked head-on.

Thief Cao is indeed smart! Guan Yu commented plainly. The most powerful deterrent is to draw the army but not attack it, because you can either go to Hanzhong or Jingxiang, and both sides will have their hands tied.

Fortunately, the veteran defeated the enemy and forced Cao Cao to make a choice.

[And this is also the reason why it is a pity for Hou Yin. If he could delay the rebellion and respond to Guan Yu, he could also wait until Xia Houyuan died.

He could be the most critical nail in killing Cao Wei, but unfortunately Cao Ren had the same concerns, so he risked his life and attacked Wancheng, with Pang De's support.

Zizhi Tongjian records: In the spring of the first month, Cao Ren slaughtered Wan, beheaded Hou Yin, and restored Tunfan.

Cao Ren also knew that the critical moment of the decisive battle was coming, so in order to avoid future troubles, he ruthlessly and simply issued the order to Tuwan.

It's just a pity that Hou Yin did not go further at the moment of changing history. 】

So simple? Ma Liang was speechless, and then there was boundless anger in his heart.

He even visited Wancheng when he was a child. He was also a citizen of Jingxiang. The customs of Wancheng were the same as those of his hometown, and he could be called half a fellow villager. What did the city do wrong!

Are you going to be slaughtered just because you don't want to do corvee work? Ma Liang was filled with grief and anger.

Jiang Wan patted his back understandingly to comfort him.

Ma Liang raised his head and blinked twice: I hope my lord will save the people of Wancheng!

I will live up to Ji Chang's trust! Liu Bei accepted it solemnly.

Massacre of a city, is that something humans do?

Thieves like Cao and others are all the same! Zhang Fei cursed, fighting in battle to kill real heroes and slaughtering defenseless people is not a hero!

[We talked during the Battle of Hanzhong. After Cao Cao arrived in Hanzhong, he started to play the same old trick and forcibly relocated the people of Hanzhong.

This is also a matter of considering defeat before winning. It was difficult for Cao Cao to accept Liu Bei getting Hanzhong, and it was even harder to accept Liu Bei getting Hanzhong and Hanzhong's population!

Comparing the two, let’s just grab the person first!

So in March, Cao Cao sent troops to Hanzhong, and in May, he led the people of Hanzhong to withdraw from Hanzhong at the speed of light. 】

Although he had known this result for a long time, seeing it now still made Liu Bei itch with hatred. After all, it was not clear before that Cao Cao was planning to capture people and bring them back to farm for him.

The thief Cao! Liu Bei angrily drew his sword and cut off a corner of the table and said, When the thief Cao is defeated, he will be locked up in his farmland and then killed! This will comfort the people of Jingzhou!

No one could stand Cao Cao's habit of forcing evictions at every turn. Kong Ming frowned and said:

Forcibly moving to farmland, killing the people at every turn, and the corvée labor continues. They are called their people, but in reality they are their slaves!

Guan Yu looked around and then suddenly remembered that Lei Xu was not here, and couldn't help but secretly thought it was a pity.

If Lei Xu saw him here, he would probably feel better. At least compared to Cao Cao, the public security department is now a good destination for the people of Jianghuai.

But...looking up at the light curtain, there was even a police label on the map.

Is it just a safe place for the police?

[Hanzhong's retreat was to better control Jing Xiang's initiative. Cao Cao, who retreated to Chang'an, did not take it lightly.

On the one hand, Liu Bei has not retreated yet, and he wants to garrison here to prevent Liu Bei.

On the one hand, Guan Yu is already riding on his face!

The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records: In the 24th year of Jian'an, Taizu was in Chang'an and sent Cao Ren to attack Guan Yu in Fan.

History books are generally very accurate in recording locations, but adhering to the butt principle, you need to understand the meaning.

Cao Ren himself was defending Fancheng, so how could he talk about attacking Guan Yu in Fancheng? So there is only one answer: Guan Yu came after Cao Cao sent troops to Hanzhong!

And relying on the navy to lock the Han River, separate Xiangyang and attack Fancheng! 】

It should be May now! Huang Zhong once again showed his memory of this year.

In May...the dry season has ended. Zhang Fei suddenly realized: No wonder the second brother is so powerful!

It is very clear from the map that the two cities of Xiangfan separate the north and south sides of the Han River, and the ships representing Guan Yu roam the river unscrupulously.

Now that we have the Han River, we should attack Fancheng! Guan Yu's thinking was extremely clear: If Fancheng is defeated, Xiangyang will be destroyed without attacking it!

I’ll make up for it so that I can update the complete plot tomorrow.
