Langzhong recruits part-time jobs.

Zhang Fei has always been one of Liu Bei's most trusted generals from beginning to end. There is no problem of doing nothing.

From 2 17 to 2 19, Liu Bei and Cao Cao competed for Hanzhong, and the situation was very fierce. As a deep charge, Zhang Fei took part in the Hanzhong Campaign. 2 17 years, first argued with Ma Chao, Tong Lei and Ulan, and Cao Cao sent Cao Hong, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen to resist. In the 23rd year of Jian 'an (2 18), Zhang Fei stationed troops in Gushan, pretending to cut off the rear of Cao Hong, and was caught by Cao Xiu. At the suggestion of Cao Xiu, Cao Hong attacked Ulan before the Shu army assembled, and Tong Lei and Ulan were killed. When Zhang Fei and Ma Chao saw that the situation was unfavorable, they retreated.

Where did you retreat to? There is no explanation in the history books, but it is obvious that Zhang Fei and Ma Chao returned to Liu Bei's army. Because Liu Bei has decided to send troops to capture Hanzhong, Zhang Chao must have reinforced Liu Bei.

The battle of Hanzhong lasted for several years and ended with Liu Bei's total victory in 2 19. Liu Bei called the king of Hanzhong and named Zhang Fei the right general, so he had a holiday. Second only to Guan Yu. Ranked second among military commanders.

In 22 1 a.d., after Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor, he appointed Zhang Fei as general riding a chariot, a captain leading teachers and Hou Xixiang. Among the military commanders, he ranks first, and his title has surpassed that of the late Guan Yu. The position of an officer captain is even more remarkable. He can impeach officials. This is no joke. Later, Liu Bei died and Zhuge Liang ruled Shu. In addition to the position of prime minister, he also works part-time as a captain. This shows its importance.

In the same year, just as Liu Bei was preparing for a large-scale eastward expedition, he recruited Zhang Fei to lead the army, and Zhang Fei was suddenly assassinated.

Carefully comb Zhang Fei's resume. He has been trying to help Liu Bei conquer the world. How could he have been idle for seven years?

I have to say that Zhang Fei is idle, from 2 19 to 22 1 for more than two years, but not only Zhang Fei is idle in these two years, but the whole country of Shu is idle.

Due to the tragic battle in Hanzhong and the heavy losses caused by Sun Quan's sneak attack on Jingzhou, Shu Han needs time to recover, and needs enough time to recover.

So from 2 19 to 22 1, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei have been accumulating strength and preparing for revenge. Not at all idle.

As for Zhang Fei being stationed in Langzhong, it seems that he was abandoned.

In fact, Langzhong is a crucial strategic position.

Located in the northeast of Sichuan Basin, it is the north gate of Chengdu Plain. It reaches Jiange and Yangpingguan in the north, Chengdu in the south, Shang Yong County in the east and Jiangzhou and Jiangling in the southeast by waterway.

If Hanzhong rebelled or Wei occupied Hanzhong, the Han army in Langzhong could quickly reinforce Hanzhong, or directly stick to Yangpingguan and Jiange. You can also retreat to Chengdu.

If Liu Bei wants to crusade against Sun Quan, Zhang Fei can send troops from Langzhong and quickly meet Liu Bei in Jiangzhou.

Liu Bei put Zhang Fei in Langzhong with a deep intention that ordinary people can't understand.
