"Report——"
"Outside of Dawan Pass, the walled city built by the Shu people is not refined, and the troops stationed around the walled city are all old and weak."
"The military advisor of Western Shu, Dongfang Jing, has already dispatched his army and is heading south. There is plenty of food, grass and baggage. All along the way, there are slogans of 'avenging the green phoenix of Western Shu'."
…
Each piece of information kept surprising the sheepherder and Dongfang Jing. At this moment, the shepherd was finally convinced that the so-called construction of a walled city was really just a guise for lame people and had no effect.
What the lame man has to do is to intercept the little strategist's constant victory.
"Commander, how are you now?"
The shepherd rubbed his forehead and said, "There are not enough troops over at Dingdong Pass, and the lame man has also gone south. There is no need to worry about an attack on the city in the short term. To say the least, even if the lame man attacks the city in a roundabout way, we can still Rush back quickly and defend the level."
Shen Tu Guan nodded.
"General Shentu, what we need to pay attention to is the lame man's every move. If he wants to go south, we will go south. If he wants to attack a key point, we will return reinforcements."
"Wise words from the military advisor!"
…
"Chen Zhong, just watch. In this case, the best plan for the shepherd is to target me to death. I go south, and he goes south. I attack the key points, and he comes back to support me." There was no trace of emotion on Dongfang Jing's face. of panic.
"Then military advisor, if this is the case...if the sheepherders return reinforcements quickly, our attack on Dayuan Pass will be in vain."
"I've said it before, it's just to grab some time. If I'm not wrong, there are currently less than 20,000 defenders in Dawan Pass. Even if they have to be mobilized from other places, it will take a while. As for how to prevent the sheepherders from returning to help, I have already made arrangements."
"What arrangement?"
Dongfang Jing continued, "Don't forget that at the beginning of my life, I buried five battalions of Shu troops outside Dingdong Pass and asked them to pretend to be villagers and wait for opportunities. If the sheepherders followed my movements, I will find a way to drag him to the vicinity of the Shu soldiers. At that time, I will turn back to attack Dayuan Pass. When the sheepherders realize that something is wrong, they will return to help Dayuan Pass. Then, this Shu soldiers will be A roadblock."
"I also know that... it must be very difficult for ten thousand people to block fifty thousand people. But again, if we seize this round of time, the sheepherders will not be able to defend themselves in time, and we will have a chance."
Chen Zhong next to him looked excited when he heard this.
"Chen Zhong, do you know why I want you to leave the city together? Logically speaking, if you stay at Dingdong Pass, you will be more foolproof."
"Military advisor, why?"
Dongfang Jing smiled and said, "It's just a gesture. In Dayuan Pass, Shen Tuguan also followed the sheepherders, and the army left the city. Therefore, the current Dayuan Pass is the best time to attack. Furthermore, in Li There are many internal agents in the state, and if we join forces with them, we will get twice the result with half the effort."
Lizhou Neiying was a great gift from the old Confucian Chen Fang.
Dongfang started to admire him, "When Dayuan Pass is captured and Lizhou is conquered, one of my hands in Xishu will reach the hinterland of Beiyu."
In fact, there is one more thing that Dongfang Jing did not say. After next year, it won't be long before Cangwuzhou's sea-going ship is successfully built, and then with the hand extended by Lizhou, it is very likely that... Beiyu will be turned upside down.
Of course, there is another hidden gem. This secret is considered the biggest layout in Xishu.
…
"March with caution." The sheepherder, also sitting in the carriage, said in a solemn voice. He has always been a cautious person. If it were anyone else, he might not leave the city.
But now, those who are trapped in the south are always victorious. Furthermore, the lame man's posture clearly indicated that he was about to be surrounded and killed.
However, it was better to be cautious and the sheepherder did not head south rashly. Instead, they followed the Shu army and made camp step by step. At that time, if there is a sudden change, we can quickly return to Dawan Pass to help.
"Military advisor, don't worry. Huang Zhizhou's 30,000 Northern Route Army will be able to reach Dawan Pass in a few days."
Not only Huang Zhizhou, but also the people rushing to help his lord will also arrive soon.
"Scout!"
"Report, the Shu people's army is continuing to move south. In addition, the Shu people also discovered our Beiyu army and accelerated their march."
The sheepherder Xun Pingzi was constantly analyzing the scouts' intelligence. There is nothing wrong with Dongfang Jing's style. But for some reason, he always felt vaguely uneasy.
"Military advisor, you once said that Qingfeng of Western Shu is powerful. Look, haven't you died in the hands of Changsheng's little military advisor? These Shu people's counselors are nothing more than false reputations." Outside the carriage, a Beiyu general smiled. Open your mouth.
"shut up!"
But he never thought that as soon as he finished speaking, the sheepherder and Shen Tuguan shouted in unison, and they were so frightened that they almost fell off their horses.
"Military advisor, we are already almost thirty miles away from Dawan Pass." Shen Tuguan spoke in a solemn voice. Even though it was only thirty miles, the march took almost a day.
The snowy road is difficult, and you have to pay attention to the movements of lame people, which will naturally slow down your journey.
"Scout, where is the front?"
"Hongshan Ridge, there are many villages nearby."
The shepherd raised his head and looked at a large sloping ridge under the snow and fog, and there were many figures of ordinary people walking in the village.
"Cross the Red Mountain Ridge and keep an eye on the lame man."
…
"Hongshan Ridge is the ambush place for the five battalions of Shu soldiers." Dongfang Jing said calmly, "Chen Zhong, it's almost time. As soon as the sheepherders pass the Hongshan Ridge, we will immediately turn back and march at the fastest speed. Dawan Pass attacks the city. But before that, let brothers drink a bowl of spicy soup that you can bring with you to warm yourself up."
Chen Zhong looked solemn and earnestly cupped his hands and fists.
"By the way, military advisor, let me ask one more question, who is the commander of these five battalions?"
"General Xi Shu, Wei Liang." Dongfang Jing slowly closed his eyes.
He knew very well how arduous the task of Wei Liang, the leader of the fifth battalion, was this time. But there is no way. If we can't grab the time in this round, then all this layout will completely lose its meaning.
…
Hongshan Ridge, a snowy scene. Both the forest trees and the village roads were covered with a thick layer of snow.
At this time, in a hidden place, a dark army was waiting for an opportunity to move.
The leader was a middle-aged general with a solemn expression. The middle-aged general's eyes were fixed on the situation below the ridge.
His name was Wei Liang, and he had received a secret report from his little military advisor a day ago. Let him lead the people of the fifth battalion to block the 50,000 to 60,000 Beiyu army at all costs.
There are only ten thousand people in the five camps. The enemy is five or six times more powerful than me.
But Wei Liang's face showed an unbearable killing intent.
Beiyu's plan caused Mr. Qingfeng to die in Kezhou. And now, these people are the first to help Mr. Qingfeng take revenge!
