The military situation in Nanzheng was tense and there was no need to delay. Therefore, after discussing the plan, Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan set off immediately, and there was no delay at all along the way.
Therefore, it didn't take long to reach Nanzheng.
However, not long after that, several homing pigeons had already flown into the Jin army camp in Yangping Pass!
"What a leader, he actually sent Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan back to Nanzheng!" Li Jing pinched the small piece of paper he took out from the confidence pigeon and said with a soft smile.
However, only those who are familiar with Li Jing may be able to hear the worry hidden in this laughter, as well as the murderous intent like an iron horse.
Li Jing could probably guess that even if Lianyan's five thousand troops could get out of Ziwu Valley, there would definitely not be many left. This road is really extremely dangerous. Li Jing is not naive enough to get out of this road without paying enough casualties.
Now that Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan are gone, Geng Yan and the others are really in danger.
In fact, several carrier pigeons like these have been received before.
However, the people in the floating house were not 100% sure of the whereabouts of Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan before. They only discovered some clues and reported them.
After all, when the law was here, how could Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan not cover it up for them when they left? Even if you can't cheat for a lifetime, you can still cheat for a while. Many times, there is actually no need to cheat one life. Being able to cheat one time is actually enough.
But after Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan arrived in Nanzheng, their whereabouts could no longer be concealed. At this time, the exact news came.
"How is it possible that the Shu army returned to Nanzheng so quickly?" Wang Meng put the tea in his hand aside, paced back and forth a few times, and then said with a frown.
"Deputy Governor, the intelligence only mentions Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan, but not the Shu army. Maybe only Yang Jian and..." As he was talking, Feng Yi seemed to have thought of something in the middle, and said dryly. The ground stopped itself just like that.
"It's indeed wrong!" After a moment, Feng Yi said solemnly, but the sadness on his face became more and more gloomy.
"Don't worry, Gongsun. If General Feng Mao makes any mistakes, after I defeat Shu, I will take Yang Jian's family and bury him with my Jin army son!" Li Jing knew what Feng Yi was worried about, so he could only promise him.
To be fair, Feng Yi's sacrifice for the Jin army was indeed great enough. Of the four brothers, two are gone, and now the youngest, Feng Mao, is also in danger. The whole family is loyal and loyal, nothing more than that. Among the governors and deputy governors, Feng Yi was the only one.
Meng Tian, Yue Fei, Xue Rengui, Li Jing, Bai Qi, Chang Yuchun, Wei Qing, Su Dingfang, Li Keyong, Yang Xuangan, among these first-level governors and deputy governors, which one has lost so many brothers in a row like Feng Yi!
Therefore, Li Jing made such a promise, or in other words, made such a promise on behalf of Li Xiang.
The ministers have sacrificed themselves so much for the monarch, how can the monarch not treat his ministers favorably? Otherwise, how can this team continue to lead the team if it upsets people's hearts?
However, within the scope of Li Jing's rights, he could only promise so much. The rest is not something Li Jing is qualified to promise, it is Li Xiang's business.
Feng Yi is also a talented general. Otherwise, he would not have become the deputy governor of a state. Although he was one step slower than Li Jing and Wang Meng, he also discovered some of the problems.
Even they don't know how many troops there are in Geng Yan's army now, and it's even less likely that Shuzhong knows. In Shuzhong, they just rely on guesswork.
As a result, with the little strength of the Shu army in Nanzheng, they simply did not dare to send out troops to deal with Geng Yan. Otherwise, if there is a bad move, Nanzheng, as the administrative seat of Hanzhong, will definitely be at risk of falling. This risk is absolutely unaffordable given the current situation in Hanzhong.
Therefore, it is very likely that Yang Jian and others brought troops to support Nanzheng.
Li Jing, Wang Meng, and Feng Yi knew very well that the men under Tuo Tuo were infantry, and with the speed of infantry, it was absolutely impossible to support Yang Jian and the others to support Nanzheng so quickly.
It is impossible for infantry to reach Nanzheng in such a short time, but it is possible for cavalry to do so.
After conquering the Southern Barbarians, Liu Che finally had his own source of war horses. After all, Yunnan horses are horses too! Therefore, Liu Che had an organized cavalry unit.
However, the main cavalry units under Liu Che were basically concentrated in Jiaozhou. After all, before this, the relationship between Liu Che and Zhu Yuanzhang had been in tension and conflict. Placing the cavalry in Jiaozhou could better play their role.
If Yang Jian really led his troops back to support at this time, and if they were cavalry, wouldn't it mean that some or even all of Liu Che's cavalry in Jiaozhou had already returned to Yizhou to support Yizhou?
This is definitely not good news for the Jin army!
Liu Che's cavalry may have returned to Yizhou or even reached Hanzhong. But they didn't receive any news. What does this mean? This shows that the other party is holding back some evil!
Maybe, this cavalry unit is hiding somewhere now, deliberately trying to plot against them!
Of course, for Li Jing and others, the most critical issue now is the safety of Geng Yan's troops. For them, the most uncomfortable thing is that they already know that the troops will be in great danger, but neither Li Jing's side nor Wang Jian's side can give them strong support now.
If the obstacles in front of them are not removed, their troops will not be able to get in there at all.
However, Li Jing was really not sure whether Geng Yan and the others could solve this crisis!
"Send the order, the army will continue to advance, and we must defeat the enemy in the shortest possible time!" Li Jing raised his hand and said decisively.
The only way for the troops to rescue Geng Yan is to attack by force and remove the obstacle in front of them. If this stumbling block is gone, it is equivalent to Hanzhong falling directly into their hands.
By that time, Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan may no longer have the intention to deal with Geng Yan and the others.
Although it is difficult to do this, it is indeed the only way at present. No matter how difficult it is, you still have to try. If they don't try, then Geng Yan and the others may have to rely on themselves this time.
