On the first day of June in the seventh year of Han Qianyou, Emperor Liu Chengyou officially issued an edict, Bai Xiangxun deployed the capital of the southwest camp, Wang Jing deployed the deputy capital, and Song Yanwu was the capital supervisor of the horse and the original Yongxing army, leading the army to attack Shu and attack Qin Feng.

Under the jurisdiction of the southwest camp, in addition to the original reorganization of 30,000 soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, the Privy Council also transferred a fleet of troops from the Xingjie, Wujie, Longqi, and Inner Temple armies in the two capitals to march westward, sending a total of 50,000 troops and fighting 50,000 troops. Due to the battle of Shu, the battle was mountainous and the horse army was not increased.

In the Guanzhong area, King Yong and the new political envoy Hu Yanke mobilized the people's strength and coordinated the preparation of military supplies for the front line. The transfer and supply of the pre-military baggage is fully responsible for Yan Jinqing and Zhang Mei, who is responsible for the transshipment.

The Great Scattered Pass, the main force of Shu, has been assembled, the camp in front of the pass is dense, the flags are dense, and the momentum is directly startling the birds. It was the height of summer, the weather was hot, and it was still very much in the Qinling Mountains in Longshang.

The Han army assembled in Sanguan was about 50,000 people, and in addition to the auxiliary soldiers and people, there were more than 30,000 elite soldiers. Since the time of receiving the edict, the Han army has been assembled here for more than ten days, and there is only one military order to the commander, strict military discipline, garrison and rest, and the rest do not see any action.

"I've been waiting for more than a month to come to the west, and Your Majesty has sent an edict to send troops, and it's been more than ten days! Xiang Dushuai, there is no action at all, and he does not raise his account to discuss the matter of entering the army, I don't know what to wait for! Entering the military tent, Han Chongyun took off his helmet, looked at Shi Shouxin, who was studying the map behind the case, and muttered.

With the attention of the Son of Heaven, Shi Shouxin is now the commander of the inner temple and the left wing, and this time he was ordered to lead his subordinates westward to participate in the felling of Shu. And Han Chongyun was transferred to the inner hall with merit, and he was the left lieutenant general of the left wing, under the command of Shi Shouxin.

Raising his eyes and seeing Han Chongyun's sweaty appearance, Shi Shouxin reached out and took the pot and bowl, poured a bowl of water, got up and handed it to him, and asked, "What is the result of the inspection?" ”

Han Chongyun took it, took a few sips, wiped his mouth, looked at Shi Shouxin, and replied: "You, General Shi, govern the army strictly, and whoever dares to violate military law will stay in the camp in peace." It's just that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it's too difficult, and the sergeants are inevitably impetuous! ”

"No matter how impetuous, you have to endure it. We are out to fight, and when we are facing the enemy, the rules are stricter than in Tokyo! Shi Shouxin admonished.

"The enemy is in Qinling Village, the enemy is in Weiwu City, what's the use of staying in Sanguan....." Han Chongyun muttered: "The troops have been stationed for a long time, and the morale of this soldier is going to be defeated. ”

"Xiang Dushuai and them, they have been preparing for the battle in Fengxiang for two years, Tuntian has been sharpening the soldiers, everyone has waited for them, we have only been here for more than a month, and we can't stand it?" Shi Shouxin smiled slightly.

Han Chongyun poured himself a bowl of water again, and said with a smile: "I also understand the reason, but I am disturbed by this climate!" ”

"You have also seen that the midsummer is hot, the art of war is cloudy, and the line drives hunger and thirst, so as to take the distance! This is probably the reason why Xiang Du Shuai did not advance! Shi Shouxin said.

"According to this, Du Shuai will not drag on until autumn!" Han Chongyun said.

"It shouldn't be, the weather is hot, and Du Shuai is more concerned about it, I'm afraid it's the mobilization of the Shu army!" Shi Shouxin said confidently.

The second general talked a little, and a communication soldier from the Chinese army came to give an order: "The commander has raised the account, please go to the customs to discuss matters!" ”

In the city, above the lobby, dozens of Han army generals and colonels gathered together, or sat and sit, orderly, and the atmosphere was solemn. In addition to Xiang Xun, there were also Wang Jing, who came from Longzhou to participate in the military conference, and Song Yanwu, the capital supervisor, who were present to listen.

Under them, are Wang Quanbin, Gao Huaide, Wang Renzhen, Li Yan, Shi Shouxin, Han Chongyun, Ma Renyu...... It can be described as a bright star.

"Generals, these days, you are quite impatient!" Xiang Xun's expression was calm, he looked around and asked.

"Du Shuai, the soldiers are stubborn and stubborn, they are here to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions and recover the country. The army is stationed here, the summer is scorching, and the heat is unbearable! Ma Renyu was young and vigorous, facing the training.

Ma Renyu has been sent to Fengxiang by Liu Chengyou for a long time, and Xiang Xun is very optimistic about this young general who is fierce and has a tough style.

At this time, when he heard his words, he smiled slightly: "The soldiers are warlike and worthy of praise." ”

immediately described it, and said sternly to Xun Xun: "But to make meritorious contributions and expand the territory, you have to rely on the sword in your hand, not your tongue." This time the edict was sent to Shu, and His Majesty paid the commander with a large army, and he felt a great responsibility, and he needed the soldiers to work together with one heart and one mind. When it comes to the time of death, I only hope that the generals will be able to forge ahead and spare no effort! ”

"Yes!"

After the general answered the order, Xiang Xun calmly said: "This increase is to discuss the matter of entering the army!" ”

When these words fell, the Han generals came to the spirit. However, Xiang Xun looked at Wang Jing first and said, "The prince is from Longzhou, but let's talk about the military situation in the direction of Qinzhou first!" ”

Wang Jing is a famous general, with armor on his body, he has a heroic spirit, although he is over the age of six, but his style is not procrastinated at all. Hearing this, he said directly: "Originally, Han Baozhen, the pseudo-Shu Xiongwu Festival, although it is difficult to call the commander of the hero, but after all, he has been painting the border for many years, is familiar with military affairs, and has been guarding Qinzhou for many years, and he is also quite familiar with military affairs. However, for some reason, the lord of Shu temporarily changed a person named Zhao Jizha as the chief general of Qinzhou.

I sent someone to inquire, and this person is ambitious and talented, and he has a false name, and can only talk wildly to confuse people. Hearing that I attacked the edict, I am now gathering troops and horses, and I am shrinking in the two cities of Chengji and Longcheng. ”

Wang Jing looked at Xiang Xun and said confidently: "This courageless person is not to be worried. The old man led the army to advance, which could be controlled, and Xiang Shuai used troops in Fengzhou without disturbance. As for the Tianshui Shu Army, I will pull it out by myself! ”

"Wang Gong's real general, with you in Longzhou, it is enough to ensure that my side is safe!" Xiang Xun Dynasty Wang Jingyi arched his hand: "The Shu army of Longzhou will be handed over to the prince!" ”

"Ordered!" Wang Jing met Xiang Xun's solemn eyes, and did not ask for a big sale, and responded calmly.

Turning his head, Xiang Xun instructed Murong Chengtai, who was the marching Sima beside him, to explain the situation of the Shu army in Fengzhou again.

Being able to make a report and explain at such a military meeting, Murong Chengtai seemed very excited, and he was full of spirits, compared to the map, and said: "Comprehensive sentinel cavalry and detailed observation, after I gather troops, the Shu army will move with it. Hanzhong and the Shu army of Cheng and Order, there were more than 20,000 people who went north to support Fengzhou.

At present, in the territory of Fengzhou, the Shu army of all walks of life, totaling about 50,000, is stationed in Guzhen, Liangquan, Weiwu Xiaocheng and Sanguan Daojian Lingzhai. When Wang Zhaoyuan, the privy envoy of Shu, went to patrol the border, he ordered the Shu army to build cattle and other eight villages between the ridges to prevent our army from marching, and the commander of the Shu army, Li Tingqi, has increased his troops by 3,000 to fight it! ”

When Murong Chengtai said this, he retreated. It was Xiang Xun's turn and said in a loud voice: "As far as Fengzhou is concerned, the strength of the Shu army is not weak, and half of the generals such as Li Tingqi and Gao Yanyu are the forbidden army of Mengshu. In terms of military preparation and training, the combat power of our Han soldiers is enough to despise the Shu army, but we should not despise the Shu army in this way! ”

"Obey the teachings of the commander!"

Walking to the map, Xiang Xun pointed around the original Donghe Village and said: "The Shu army built eight villages around, but it wanted to stop our army from outside Fengzhou. However, this Bazhai and the overall defense of the Shu army are incompatible and too forward. There are more than 10,000 defenders in Bazhai, and the steepness is not as good as the green mud and the road, and the old road is long, but it becomes the obstruction of the traffic of the Shu army.

This commander discussed, this time to cut down Shu, the first goal of our army, that is, to capture the cattle Bazhai! ”

After saying goodbye, this time he personally led 5,000 Longqi troops to the west to Gao Huaide, and immediately asked: "Du Shuai, the last general is willing to lead the Longqi army to seize Shu Village!" ”

Gao Huaide was full of heroism, and his face was firm. Since Gao Xingzhou's death, the Gao family's momentum has declined, and the burden of the Gao family has fallen on him by the way.

However, when he said nothing, Wang Quanbin followed closely and said: "Xingjie Army, I am also willing to attack, and I will take Shuzhai!" ”

Seeing that after the two, there were still generals who wanted to ask for battle, and Xiang Xun immediately stretched out his hand to stop the generals who were eager to try. Looking at Gao Huaide and Wang Quanbin, Xiang Xun said: "The Tokyo Forbidden Army came from afar, and it was difficult to be familiar with the terrain and climate for a while. ”

Gao Huaide responded calmly: "The forbidden army, all refined, attacking the city and pulling out the village, invincible, not afraid of the mountains. ”

"The general is a little safe, the Shu army in Fengzhou is full of 50,000, and the forbidden army has its own merits. This time, let's let the border army and our army open the way! "For Gao Huaide, Xiang Xun was kind words to appease, and he did not use military orders to force him.

And Gao Huaide is not an ignorant person, Xiang Xun said this, obviously the plan has been decided, and he will no longer force it. Seeing this, Wang Quanbin didn't say anything more.

Seeing this, Xiang Xun breathed a sigh of relief, the distinction between inside and outside is difficult to eliminate. Taking a deep breath, Xiang Xun immediately ordered: "Wang Renzhen and Li Yan, order the two of you to lead your own troops and horses to attack Shu Village, and before autumn, open up the passage for the army to advance south!" ”
