In the fifth year of Zhongping, late August.

In the city of Dancing Yin.

On this day, after Mushan returned from the Nanyang military camp outside the city, he immediately summoned the main generals and deputy generals of the battalions under his command to gather in the main hall of the middle camp to discuss their upcoming battle deployment.

"Lord Commander ordered so-and-so, tomorrow morning, lead his troops to the north, and attack Gepo Yellow Turban with a vanguard army!"

Makiyama's voice sounded a little heavy.

The Nanyang army has been on standby in Guanyang, and after so many days, it is finally going north to Gepo, Gepo is the lair of Gong Du, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, and this battle is bound to be a bloody battle.

"Attack Gepo?"

"So fast!"

"There are still some problems with our integration, as well as the cooperation between the battalions, and now that we are rushing to war, I am afraid that some of the previous efforts have been wasted!"

“……”

When the generals heard this, they frowned slightly.

Under the command of Mushan, the guard battalion, the cavalry battalion, the vanguard battalion, the bow and crossbow battalion, the heavy armor battalion, the Pingshan battalion, the Jingping battalion, there are seven battalions, and the strength has exceeded 10,000.

"This is the action under the coordination of the Taishou of all parties, Shangcai has begun to fight yesterday, Runan Taishou Yuan Yin personally led the army to attack Shangcai, Liu Bi defended Shangcai, the war is in full swing, if we don't move here, it is equivalent to letting Ge Po's Yellow Turban Army reinforce Shangcai, then once the soldiers and horses of Runan are defeated, the lips and teeth are cold, it will inevitably affect us!"

Makiyama said: "So this battle must be done not but must be done!" ”

"Mu Shuai, Ge Po Yellow Turban has more than 100,000 troops, and the strength of our few battalions alone, I'm afraid the strength is insufficient!"

Zhou Cang arched his hand and spoke.

"We are just the vanguard, the main thing is to open the way to attack Gepo, and we must uproot the Yellow Turban battalion on this road one by one to clear the barrier for the main force of soldiers and horses!"

Mushan said: "Lord Du Wei led the troops to march behind, and it will be soon!" ”

"In case the Captain and their troops don't reinforce us in time, won't we face Ge Po's more than 100,000 Yellow Turbans alone?"

Cheng Luo said in a low voice.

"Military orders cannot be violated!" Mushan said calmly: "We have to believe in Lord Duwei!" ”

His strength is self-confidence, if Huang Meng dares to stab him in the back, he will open the entire battlefield, and if it's a big deal, he will fight to the death.

"Lord County Lieutenant, what about our grain and grass?"

Li Yan thought for a moment and asked.

It is a fact that they are now strong and strong, but the consumption of grain and grass is also a big problem, Mu Jing escorted the grain and grass, which has been almost consumed, and now the problem of grain and grass has become a big problem.

"I've tried my best to ask for it, but Lord Captain has only allocated half a month's worth of grain and grass for our three thousand people!" Mushan replied: "Nanyang's grain and grass escort is slow, which is also the reason why Lord Duwei did not dare to attack Ge Po, but now he can't wait, he doesn't have the intention to drag our grain and grass!" ”

"It's still too little!"

"It's not even half of it, it's easy to run out of food!"

"Once the food is out of food, how to fight?"

The generals looked at each other.

In fact, the grain and grass for 3,000 people is almost the same, after all, there are only about 3,000 soldiers in Wuyin County, but the recent expansion is too powerful, and the Pingshan Battalion and the Jingping Battalion add up to seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses.

"How much grain and grass do we have in our camp?" Someone asked.

"Recently, we have been consuming a lot of grain and grass, even if we are modest, we only have ten days of grain and grass at most!"

Jiang Lu replied.

"Don't worry, you have already ordered Wuyin to transport grain to the north, and now you can be on the road, and you can arrive in a few days!" Mushan waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

He has always attached great importance to the issue of grain and grass, so long ago, he had sent a letter to Zhang Gu and asked him to escort a batch of grain and grass forward.

It stands to reason that this battle was fought in the name of Nanyang Taishoufu, and he should not have taken the initiative to prepare grain and grass, but he was a person who was feared by Taishoufu after all, and the only thing that Taishoufu could do to him was grain and grass.

Only by holding all the grain in his hands can he feel safe.

"It's a lot more reassuring!"

The generals breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now I'll start deploying the mission!"

Mushan got up and launched a screen, on the screen is the map of the march, with Gepo Shangcai and other places as the center, reflecting a radius of hundreds of miles, the terrain is not very clear, but you can also see the past.

He pointed to the terrain and said: "Zhou Cang, the cavalry battalion must raid the Yellow Turban military camp less than fifty miles northeast of our city within one day, and fight quickly. ”

"No!"

"Li Yan, Cheng Luo!"

"In!"

"The bow battalion and the heavy armor battalion are going north behind the cavalry battalion, and this Yellow Turban battalion will be opened as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"County Lieutenant Deng!"

"In!"

"Can the Pingshan camp take the lead in pulling out the camp?"

"Yes!"

"Okay, after you pull out the camp, immediately go east, take a detour to the east to the north, make a circle here, go behind them, outflank here, and after forming an outflanking, you only need to be responsible for cutting off their way back, you don't need to make a move, you just need to guard the back, and cut off the reinforcements in the direction of Gepo as much as possible!"

"Big boss, as far as I know, a beacon tower will be built five miles apart between Ge Po and this military camp, and the news will be transmitted very quickly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to intercept!"

Cheng Luo said.

"There is no need to intercept the news, after the fight, even if it is stopped, I just need to block the support of the reinforcements, and in the shortest possible time, open up the route to attack Gepo!"

"Yes!"

The generals nodded.

"Boss, where's my pioneer battalion?" Lei Hu frowned and asked in a low voice.

"The Pioneer Battalion and my Guards Battalion join forces!"

Makiyama said lightly.

"But isn't the responsibility of the Pioneer Battalion to come first in every battle?" Lei Hu was a little unwilling.

"When your vanguard battalion can win against my personal guard battalion, I will let you fight first!" Mu Shan glanced at him and said coldly: "Marching and fighting, it is not child's play, capable can be the vanguard of the army, I will leave the battalion number of the pioneer battalion to you for the time being, but if in the future, you cannot achieve the qualification of the pioneer battalion, I will remove this battalion number!" ”

"No!"

Lei Hu nodded heavily.

The pioneer battalion suffered great setbacks, with countless casualties, and now even if he offends several uncles, there are only more than 600 people, and the combat effectiveness is still a lot weaker than before, and it is basically impossible to fight in the vanguard.

"Let's go back and prepare immediately, and complete the matters before the camp as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

The generals took the orders and left.

"Dad, then the mission of my Jingping Battalion is to stay here in Guanyang as a reserve?" Mu Jing said with a smile.

After all, the Jingping camp was composed of the Yellow Turban troops, and if they were to attack the Gongdu Department immediately, it would be somewhat bad, so it was normal for Mushan to want the Jingping camp to avoid the Battle of Gepo.

"You want to be beautiful!"

Mushan Tiger's eyes were like lightning, he glanced at him, and said coldly: "Jingping Camp doesn't need to participate in the Battle of Gepo, but immediately go north, and in the shortest possible time, take Dingying County and Xiping County, and beware of the Huang Shao Department in Ruyang!" ”

In the north of Runan, it is the Yingchuan Canal Marshal Huang Shao's department to sit in town, Huang Shao defeated the Yingchuan soldiers, the prestige is flourishing, has won several cities in succession, is currently growing the prestige, the army is also strong, if he goes south to Cai, it will inevitably cause chaos.

Mushan didn't want to be attacked on his back, so he had to arrange a defense area in the north, and Jingping Camp was the most suitable.

"Going north?"

Mu Jing frowned, looked at the map carefully, and said, "Dad, if I go north, who will defend you in the rear!" ”

"Why should I defend the rear wing?" Makiyama's face was expressionless.

"You're not afraid of Huang Meng, they will stab you!"

"You've got a lot of thoughts!" Makiyama looked at him with some amusement.

"I'm worried about you!"

"Put away your thoughts!" Mu Shan shook his head: "The birds are all gone, the good bow is hidden, but the birds are not finished, the good bow will not be hidden, the Nanyang soldiers are united in their hearts and minds before they can agree to this battle, even if Huang Meng can't see through it, I believe that there are people in his camp who can see through it!" ”

"Dad, when will you drag the text!" Mu Jing was very curious.

"Little rabbit cub, I have to force you to use force against you!" Mu Shan was furious, looking like he was going to cut Mu Jing with a thousand knives, recently he listened to Jiang Lu's advice, as the main general, he must not be without knowledge, so he studied very hard, so he would burst out one or two words with connotation, but he didn't expect to be despised by his son, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he had the urge to kill his relatives in righteousness.

"Dad, I'll go down first to prepare for the camp!"

Mu Jing hurriedly got up, took Zhang Ning's little hand, and didn't care about Zhang Ning's red face, he walked outside in three or two: "Deputy General Zhang, Daddy is crazy, let's go quickly!" ”

"Damn, this kid conquered the city so quickly?"

Mu Shan was a little dumbfounded: "Am I going to have a little grandson soon!" ”

"Mu Shuai, Mu Longtu is only thirteen years old!" Jiang Lu put away some of the papers in his hand, and said angrily: "If you want to hold your grandson, I'm afraid you have to wait!" ”

"When I was thirteen years old, I was ready to ask for a daughter-in-law!"

Makiyama's righteous words.

"You cow!"

Jiang Lu was speechless.

"Sir, how did I just deploy?" In front of Jiang Lu, Mushan was still very modest.

"I'm not worried about the ability of the marshal on the battlefield, the marshal can open the way to attack Gepo, there is no doubt that I am a little worried that this matter is not so simple!"

"How?" Makiyama's face is straight.

"The recent movements of the Yellow Turban Army, Mu Shuai can take a closer look!"

"It's quiet!"

"It's just so quiet!" Jiang Lu said: "It's not that they don't know that Shangcai has been suppressed here recently, but they are actually indifferent, do you think they are sitting still?" ”

"No!" Makiyama shook his head.

"That's what they have to rely on!" Jiang Ludao.

"So, this battle is not easy to fight!" Makiyama's face became solemn.

"The shepherd needs to be careful!"

Jiang Lu said: "It is a good decision to put the Jingping camp in the north, with the Jingping camp in the north for defense, the shepherd can advance and retreat!" ”
