The position of the Shu army is now a deep canyon, and looking up at the watershed from here is like a long sword straight into the sky, unattainable.

But fortunately, there is a steep path that can be reached to the top of the mountain, but Jiang Wei did not act rashly, and he would not attack rashly when the situation on the watershed was not explored.

The scouts sent out quickly returned, bringing back the information Jiang Wei needed.

As Jiang Wei judged, there was a Wei army stationed on the watershed, but the number was not too many, about five hundred.

It's normal to think about it, the watershed is a dangerous pass on the Fu Luo Road, and the Wei army will naturally garrison the army here in order to ensure the safety of the grain road.

However, the Fu Luo Road stretches for more than 400 miles, and there are countless dangers, and if the Wei army needs to be guarded against everywhere, the distribution of troops must be a big problem, so there are not too many troops stationed in the watershed, only 500 people, which is naturally reasonable.

If this song is in the plains, Jiang Wei doesn't have to think about it at all, and he can be destroyed in a few minutes by raising his hand, but under this dangerous terrain, Jiang Wei doesn't dare to act rashly.

The mountain road to the top is just that, only one person can pass through, as long as the Wei army holds the top of the mountain, even if the Shu army has more soldiers and horses, it is useless, as the so-called one man is the pass, ten thousand people are not open, want to attack the top of the mountain, it is not a simple and easy task.

However, the most beneficial thing for Jiang Wei now is that the Wei army stationed on the watershed does not seem to be aware of the danger coming, and has no defense, basking in the sun on the watershed, chatting, and looking extremely bored.

The barren mountains and mountains here, it is difficult to find people within a hundred miles, and stationing here is naturally the most boring thing.

The most important thing is that in the deepest part of Fu Luo Road here, there are garrison checkpoints in front and behind, and the Wei soldiers stationed in the watershed did not realize that they would become the target of the Shu army here, so their defense was extremely lax.

However, Jiang Wei did not dare to attack in broad daylight, once it was put into attack, it would startle the snake, the Wei army on the top of the mountain would be on guard, and the nearby Wei army would also hear the news and rush to reinforcements, if the Shu army could not succeed in one blow, it would fall into passivity, and even the operation fell short and failed.

Therefore, Jiang Wei did not rush to achieve success, but ordered all the Shu troops to hide and wait until night to act.

The night gave the Shu army the best cover, and when Zhao Guang led the death squad to quietly climb to the top of the mountain, the Wei army, except for a few sentinels, all slept like dead people.

And those sentries were also absent-minded, Zhao Guangdu had already quietly touched under their noses, and he didn't notice it.

Zhao Guang attacked quickly and ruthlessly, several Shu soldiers with strong martial arts shot at the same time, and the Wei sentries didn't even shout, and their throats were cut off and they died of anger.

The next action became much simpler, Zhao Guang led his troops into the camp tent of the Wei army, and the swords fell, and the sleeping Wei soldiers didn't even have a chance to wake up, so they went to Huangquan Prefecture to report to Lord Yan.

Occasionally, a few Wei soldiers who slept lightly seemed to notice movement, but before they could get up, their heads had been cut off.

In order to deal with the 500 people of the Wei army on the watershed, Jiang Wei deliberately ordered a death squad of 500 people, that is, after climbing the mountain, the Shu army faced the Wei army, basically one-on-one, and every Wei soldier who slept like a dead man was surrounded by a Shu soldier with a ring head knife waiting there, such an ending is naturally conceivable.

If it weren't for Jiang Wei's order, he deliberately left dozens of Shu soldiers alive, and the five hundred Wei troops would probably have been slaughtered cleanly, and there would be no one left.

Jiang Wei specially left dozens of living mouths, which were still useful, and when the military marquis who led the troops was escorted to Jiang Wei, he was still dazed, and he seemed to have a feeling that he was still in a dream.

Killing him didn't figure out where this Shu army came from, could it be that the Shu army really had wings and could fall from the sky?

The military marquis knelt at Jiang Wei's feet, trembling like chaff, his teeth chattering obviously, and he couldn't spit out a complete sentence for a long time.

Jiang Wei smiled and said: "The reason why you are spared a life is because you still have something to use, if you are willing to cooperate, this general can not only spare your life, but also reward you with cattle and horses and fields, so that you will have no worries for a lifetime." ”

The marquis thought that he fell into the hands of the Shu army and was destined to die, but he didn't expect the general of the Shu army to offer such a condition, and he was overjoyed, but he was also skeptical, after all, the other party was just talking, and if he killed the donkey in the future, he would have no choice.

"That's it...... Seriously? ”

Zhao Guang said with a disdainful face: "This is the Fuhan General Jiang Wei is also, General Jiang is such an identity, of course he is a man of his word, you are a little military marquis, do you still need to lie to you?" ”

The marquis's face was radiant, and he said in surprise: "You...... Is it really General Tianshui Jiang Boyo Jiang? ”

Jiang Wei did not hide his identity as a general of the Wei State, and bowed his head slightly: "Yes, it is Jiang." ”

The military marquis immediately said excitedly: "General Jiang, the villain is also from Tianshui Ji County, and he is only a few streets away from the general's house. ”

Jiang Wei shrugged slightly and said: "I didn't expect you to be from Ji County, and you have the friendship of fellow villagers, so get up and speak." "Jiang Wei has never been able to return to his hometown since he descended to Shu, and now he sees his fellow villagers here, although he can't talk about seeing his fellow villagers, his eyes are full of tears, but a sense of cordiality still arises spontaneously.

The military marquis stood up tremblingly, and after learning Jiang Wei's identity, he was a lot more relieved, at least Jiang Wei would not deceive him, this little life should be guaranteed.

"Since you are from Jicheng, do you know how your mother is doing?" Jiang Wei has been away from home for many years and can't see his mother again, which is an eternal sore spot in his heart.

The military marquis's face changed slightly, and he said cautiously: "Lingtang...... He died three years ago. ”

Jiang Wei didn't seem surprised by his mother's death, but his eyes still showed a sad look, and he sighed silently, half speechless.

Jiang Wei's father died early, he and his mother depended on each other, and the relationship was very deep, but after Jiang Wei descended to Shu, he never saw his mother again, and now Yin and Yang are separated, Jiang Wei has not been able to see his mother again after all.

If the Northern Expedition is successful or can enter Liangzhou, Jiang Wei still has hope to see his mother again, but it is a pity that in the past ten years, the Shu army has never hit Tianshui again, which has undoubtedly become a lingering pain in the heart of Jiang Wei, who dreams of returning to his hometown in fine clothes and doing his filial piety.
