As Little Dog Fu said, in just two days, as the sunshine became stronger and stronger, the snow melted more and more. Even under Dawan Pass, it was already wet.
At this time, Xu Mu, Dongfang Jing, and Xiao Xiaofu were all on top of the city, looking out of the city. Following Xiaoqiaofu's suggestion, Chao Yi will arrive soon after they are ready as a surprise trooper out of the city.
"Judging from the steady vigor, my lord still needs a hook. This hook will ignite the offensive momentum of the Beiyu people." Dongfang Jing said in a serious tone.
"I, Dongfang Jing, will announce the next hook for the master."
Xu Mu nodded calmly, and just when he was about to continue talking, he suddenly heard the noise under the city gate. After hanging their heads, they realized that hundreds of fleeing people had gathered at the gate of the city. Many people knelt down and kowtowed, begging to enter the city.
War is about to break out, and no matter where it is, people will eventually escape the scourge of war.
"These days, the number of Lizhou people who have entered the city has reached nearly 30,000." Dongfang Jing frowned, "With his ever-victorious temper, he will take advantage of this opportunity to continue to make arrangements. But I, Xishu, are This is the way of the people. There is no reason to reject what the people want. When the time comes, if there are no problems, they will move outside Dingbeiguan and open up wasteland to form a village."
"That's all."
In troubled times, the common people are the foundation of everything. For example, in the case of land reclamation outside Dingzhou, the more people who escaped, the better.
"Long Gong, go do this yourself and try your best to find out the person who did it carefully."
Gonggo clasped his fists and walked quietly to the gate of the city.
At the foot of Dawan Pass, the city gate slowly opened. The hundreds of fleeing people couldn't help but look anxious. No matter whether you are bringing a family with you or you are alone, as long as you enter Dawan Pass, you can successfully avoid the disaster of war.
A city gate captain in Western Shu carefully directed the troops and arranged for the refugees outside the city to enter the customs.
"Women, children, old and young, go to the left, young men and women, go to the right!"
The captain's face was serious, he raised his head and looked at the young men gathered on the right. According to past methods, Beiyu is very likely to take advantage of the opportunity and arrange for Xiaozuo to sneak into Qingzhuang.
After all, women, children, the old and the weak, no matter how you look at it, are all poor people.
"Mei Niang, let's go, let's go." Among the women and children on the left, an anxious aunt spoke to the woman next to her.
The girl named Mei Niang was ordinary-looking, with frost scars on her face. She was wearing a thin robe and was shaking a little.
Listening to the words of her companions, the woman also ran forward tremblingly.
Several soldiers from Xishu raised their heads and glanced at her a few times. They were not embarrassed and allowed her to enter Dayuan Pass along with the long procession of women, children, old and weak people.
"Mei Niang, you have to follow closely. If you are a few days late, you might not be able to escape."
A happy smile appeared on the woman's face after the disaster. But no one noticed that when she turned her head, a strange luster began to flash in her eyes.
She finally stepped into Dawan Pass.
The next thing to do is to gather the people from the secret sentry and reconnaissance battalion, and cooperate with the small military adviser on the other side of Dayuan Pass to capture the entire Lizhou.
…
tread.
There is about a hundred miles outside Dawan Pass. The Beiyu cavalry army, numbering more than 20,000, all stopped. The leader is obviously a victor.
This round, in order to recapture Lizhou, when the war was about to start, he deliberately left the camp to check the terrain.
"Military advisor, the scouts from the front are here to report that Jiang Xian, disguised as a village woman, entered Dawan Pass yesterday."
"Very good." Chang Sheng, who was riding on the horse, breathed a rare sigh of relief.
As long as Anzi can enter the pass, he can unite with Beiyu's old troops to form an internal response army. Although there are not many of them, if used well, they might become a killer.
After a moment of silence, Chang Sheng wanted to move forward, but was stopped by Yan Pi next to him.
"Military strategist, if we go further, we will reach the outside of Luoyan City and enter the defense range of the Shu people. If not, the little strategist can immediately send troops to attack Luoyan City in a surprise attack."
"The time has not come yet." Chang Sheng listened and shook his head.
The entire Lizhou must be taken back by some means. Otherwise, the hand extended by Xishu will cause trouble to the whole of Beiyu in the future.
"The snow is about to melt." Chang Sheng raised his head and looked at the wetness all over the world, not knowing what he was thinking.
The best plan, just like his previous strategy, turned Luoyan City into a chopping block in the hands of the butcher, constantly draining Xi Shu's energy and soldiers. In this way, if it doesn't last long and the foundation is not enough, Xishu will slowly wither.
Of course, he also thought clearly. The lame man will definitely be on guard against this. How to turn Luoyan City into a magnet to attract the Western Shu army requires more means.
"Yan Pi, have you ever killed a snake?"
"Little strategist, could it be that... you want one shot and two snakes again?" Yan Pi, who was standing next to him, looked shocked.
"No." Chang Sheng's voice was solemn, "This time, I am fighting a long snake. Just like the army of Western Shu, it is like a long snake, but I will find a way to prevent its head and tail from seeing each other. I know that a lame man will definitely It will be in the seven inches of the snake, but in other parts of the snake body, if it is cut into sections, then the lame man will not be able to take care of it. In this way, without the lame man sitting in charge, whether it is a soldier or a general, we Beiyu has the upper hand and will win a great victory."
"Military advisor, I heard that King Xu Shu is also here."
"In view of the last time he was trapped in the Snake Road, King Xu Shu will not go out in person. Even if he wants to go out, he will not be stopped by the generals and staff of Western Shu. This time, it is still a battle between me and the lame man."
"The green phoenix of Western Shu is dead, and the lame man is really alone. To put it bluntly, in the whole of Western Shu...except for the lame man, there is probably no one who can take the stage."
"There are some, so don't be careless." Chang Sheng shook his head, "The cavalry general Chao Yi will definitely come, as well as Shu shield Chen Zhong, Chai Zong of Beiguan... In addition, the young generals of Western Shu should not be underestimated either. .”
After listening to the second half of the sentence, behind Chang Sheng, Yuchi Ding's face suddenly turned angry. That young general from Xishu had made him lose a lot of face.
"As for the top counselors in Western Shu, as you said, after Qingfeng's death, apart from the lame man, there are no other great talents. And I, Beiyu, still have an experienced counselor like Xun Pingzi."
"When the time comes, the lame man and I will bite the snake seven inches apart, and we will cut off the other snake segments. It is impossible to say that we will win consecutively."
"Little strategist, when will we take action?"
"In the past two days, I have checked the terrain of Lizhou. It is very likely that the lame man will abandon Luoyan City. When the time comes, Luoyan City is captured. The thirteen grain roads I have laid out will continue to accumulate the grain and grass in the rear. Go to Luoyan City and lure lame people to attack, until it slowly turns into a big battle."
"What if the lame man doesn't give up?" Yan Pi was silent for a while and then asked one more question.
Chang Sheng smiled and turned his head, "Luoyan City is easy to attack but difficult to defend, and Xishu already has Dayuan Pass. Instead of defending such a flat city, it is better to focus on other places. In this kind of war, A lame person’s mind is always sober.”
