Lethe Valley.
It's a big canyon.
How big is it? It can accommodate 100,000 people passing through at the same time. In Gu Guan's impression, this canyon is three miles long. After passing this canyon, we will begin to enter the most difficult stage of the mountain. Wild beasts appear, and poisonous swamps are everywhere.
Liu Zheng stopped.
Because he doesn't want to move forward.
From a military perspective, this canyon is the most suitable for an ambush. Yes, there is nothing more suitable than this canyon. The opponent can kill these 100,000 people without spending almost a single soldier!
Give the order and set up camp!
As a result, these 100,000 people blocked the entrance to the canyon. For a time, these prisoners were very happy when they heard that they would rest here for a few days. They knew what this canyon meant. Once they walked in, they had no idea what was waiting for them in front!
"Sir...are we really not leaving?"
Gu Guan was dumbfounded.
Liu Zheng ordered, stay where you are!
Liu Zheng laughed: "Brother Gu, are you really sure you've walked half the distance?"
Gu Guandao: "Half a month has passed. I remember that it only took a month to walk to Wangchuan with Master. Moreover, the subsequent road is even more difficult, which means that we have actually walked more than half of the way. It’s done!”
Halfway through the journey, there are two ways to say it.
One is mileage and the other is time.
What Gu Guan was talking about at this time was of course mileage.
"More than half..."
Liu Zheng chuckled and nodded.
On this trip, he finally achieved his goal.
First, we need to find out what kind of things are playing tricks in this mountain. The pigs are actually just a bunch of people, there is nothing to be afraid of. He can even use them!
Second, he figured out how big the mountain was and how much explosives he needed...
Third, looking at the current terrain of Wangchuan, Liaodong County will not put too many troops in this mountain. No more than 100,000! Because in this kind of mountain and forest warfare, if the number exceeds 100,000, the numerical advantage will become less and less important.
Why would he let these 100,000 people take risks at this time?
A letter passed by a flying pigeon was thrown out.
The homing pigeons flew in the direction of Taixi Village.
…
"General, general, they are coming!"
"They've reached the canyon!"
Several subordinates hurried over, looking happy.
Ji Yong was extremely excited and stood up: "One hundred thousand prisoners?"
The subordinate nodded: "At least one hundred thousand! It is being repaired outside the canyon. It is estimated that it will enter the canyon in a few days!"
"good!"
A sinister look flashed across Ji Yong's face, and then he looked at Pei Qianyun in the cage and said with a smile: "General Pei, this time, let's see where your Minister Liu is escaping!"
Pei Qianyun shouted angrily again, and the cage shook violently.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Ji Yong smiled lightly and said: "Do you think I don't know what Liu Shilang wants to do when he goes into the mountain? Want to see how many people are here? Is that right? Then I might as well tell you that outside the canyon, there are basically no people watching. Those who can't come out... He wants to find out how many soldiers there are, and they have to come in at least one mile!"
"But as long as he dares to come in..."
"He will die!"
"Fuck you!"
When Pei Qianyun heard this, his eyes were about to burst.
Ji Yong continued to laugh wildly.
At this time, he was standing above the canyon, inside the attic he built. He sat down slowly. The tea on the tea table next to him was already warm. He picked it up and took a sip.
He felt that this time, he was already sure of victory.
At this time, there are 50,000 of his elite soldiers in the Wangchuan Valley!
There are still 30,000 wolves for him to dispatch!
No matter how many people come to Liu Shilang's side, he can eat them all!
…
Taixi Village.
At this time, it has been more than half a month since Liu Zheng entered Wangchuan!
Today, the entire Taixi Village was in a row.
"No, is this Mr. Liu okay?"
"Yes, after entering, not a single news came out! It couldn't have been..."
"Will it work or not? If not, we will take a detour!"
At this time, the people gathered in Taixi Village were all rich and powerful people from Longyan. Although he is also very optimistic about Liu Shilang's reputation. But they have been here for half a month! What is the purpose of staying in this remote place in the snow and ice, all the way away, with all your wealth?
"That's right, come out quickly and give us an explanation!"
"Don't risk your own life by developing the Great Northern Wilderness!"
"Where is King Wei? Come out and say something!"
Xie Fang also came over at this time. How could he not join in the excitement?
He laughed loudly: "From my perspective, it's better to set off early and go around it!"
Everyone booed.
But some people stood up and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you can go around, but this Liaodong plan was proposed by Liu Shilang... Now, Liu Shilang's life and death are unknown. When the time comes, we will pass by, but Liu Shilang has disappeared. ,This is how to do?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone echoed.
King Wei had a cold face and said loudly: "Everyone, there is no news about Minister Liu, so something must have delayed him! Please wait a little longer..."
"Still waiting? The day lilies are already cold!"
"We just can't wait any longer! If this continues, we will have to go back. Maybe we can catch up with the Chinese New Year!"
"right!"
King Wei suddenly became anxious.
King Yong also looked solemn. It doesn't matter whether these people go or not...but they came with a lot of money this time! The money in Liu Zheng's hands now cannot support the development of Liaodong alone. So he repeatedly asked King Wei and King Yong to calm the emotions of these people. Without them, Liaodong would not be developed!
"Everyone..."
"You have to believe Liu Shilang!"
"There's nothing to be afraid of in this Wangchuan!"
"We are already preparing..."
But with two people, it obviously has no effect at this time! Many people are already shaking their heads and leaving. Many merchants are already packing their luggage, and one carriage after another is planning to leave here.
at this time.
Suddenly a person hurriedly ran out from the crowd.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is a letter!"
"There's a letter from Wangchuan!"
"It belongs to Minister Liu!"
King Wei and King Yong were excited: "Coming?"
Xie Fang and others' expressions changed slightly.
The whole place was in an uproar.
Sir Liu, are you still alive?
The people who were planning to leave also stopped again.
"Quick, take it apart and read it!"
The king of Wei was impatient.
King Yong took it.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
The messenger opened the letter and said with great joy: "Wangchuan, you can enter!"
"good!"
"Everyone go back and prepare for departure tomorrow!"
The faces of Xie Fang and others turned dark instantly.
