Cao Pi sent an army of 200,000, and also joined the 50,000 sailors of the Huaihe generation, supplying millions of people along the way, and the scale of the war was extremely grand.

Compared with him, Zhuge Liang's advance speed is much faster, he got the news in June, and in July, the 120,000 army has been pressed to the gate of Tianshui County, outside Chencang Road, Qinling Gap!

After all, while doing business, Zhuge Liang was also extra guarded against Wang Hou, after Liu Bei died in Jingzhou, Shu Han arranged in Wuling to guard against the Eastern Wu troops of 10,000 people, but the troops stationed in Hanzhong as many as 40,000, and later after the crusade against Nanzhong, the war was tight, and he was transferred back to the southern battlefield, but the war rarely improved, he mobilized 20,000 Hanzhong troops in the north back, and then recruited a large number of troops in Nanzhong, and a steady stream of barbarian soldiers stationed in Hanzhong, increasing the Hanzhong troops to 60,000.

Moreover, the trading post is located in Hanzhong, with a large amount of grain hoarding, and there is no need to carry any baggage equipment, Zhuge Liang directly led the main light army to set off from Chengdu and join the garrison in Hanzhong, so that he could gather into an army and launch an attack.

The Wei army in Guanzhong has not increased much in strength for so many years, and it is still the two major corps built by Wang Hou when he entered Guanzhong in order to control the two states, plus the third mixed brigade and cavalry regiment stationed here in Liaodong for a long time, a total of only 30,000 troops, but in three years, the local troops have more than tripled!

It has become an industry, and there are 8,000 to 12,000 Guanxi cavalry under Cao Pi for a long time, but Wang Hou can still mobilize more than 20,000 landlord knights and knights' elite soldiers.

The difference in strength is close to 2.5.

But there are only more than 23,000 people stationed at the Chencang Road Crossing, the Liangzhou Corps, more than 10,000 landlord cavalry, and even the mixed brigade and the knight regiment are not here, but no one thinks that Zhuge Liang's 12 armies are superior, and the morale of the entire army is extremely high.

In this expedition to Nanzhong, Zhuge Liang also added a lot of special troops to his army, wearing leather armor, exposing chest muscles, and extraordinarily strong muscles of the Nanban infantry, as well as a tall and majestic war elephant with leather armor and daggers tied to his teeth.

In the narrow valley of Chencang Road, the 50,000 troops as the vanguard were arranged in a slender and thick olive shape, and at the front of the battle array, twenty-six armored war elephants lined up in the front like a wild beast, carrying narrow leather chest guards on them, a large area of healthy skin was exposed, smeared with ochre-red markings, and the mahout witch was also touching the colorful mahout witch as if the troops in the game had actually picked out the reality, while beating the snare drum in hand, and at the same time grinning at the front fiercely.

The Southern Barbarian soldiers are still cannon fodder-level existences, behind the war elephants, the scattered Nanban infantry are carrying axes, wearing leather armor that is so thin that it can only protect the chest and the vital parts between the thighs.

A regiment of five or six hundred people, a total of more than a dozen regiments, behind these scattered infantry, the Shu infantry wearing iron and yellow leather armor, wearing helmets, holding guns and swords, neatly arranged in five rows, it seems that the formation is pressed, and the meaning of the supervision army is probably stronger.

The front row as cannon fodder, it is estimated that they are not very trusted barbarian soldiers, and then there are trusted, after the reorganization of the Shu army, Nanzhong Wudang Feijun, these people are wearing iron armor, wearing iron helmets, but there is nothing under the iron armor, and the arms and thighs are also unarmoured, directly exposed, so that on the one hand, in order to reduce weight, on the other hand, Nanzhong people are not resistant to extreme heat, which is conducive to cooling.

In his hand, he also held a Zhuge crossbow, carrying an axe at his waist, a very strange style, like an octopus leg turning upward, and a machete with extraordinarily wide and alien characteristics, arranged into two large horizontal teams to escort the middle of the Chinese army, and it is estimated that he was responsible for accepting the assault mission of the two wings after the war.

The Chinese army is the elite of Shuzhong trained by Zhuge Liang himself, it is estimated that the Hubu army is talking about them, similar to Wang Hou's Wei army, all of them are equipped with heavy armor, holding a gun in their left hand and a shield in their right hand, and the lineup is kept unusually neat, lined up with a hundred people per row, a total of four columns, a phalanx like iron blocks, with their pace, the earth can't help but make a dull sound.

However, Zhuge Liang did not have Wang Hou's financial resources, and the number of such well-trained elite infantry was only about 3,600 in nine phalanxes.

In the end, it is the fat and bloated rear army, Zhuge is particularly strict in commanding the army, there are some characteristics here, in addition to the wooden ox and horse heavy Zhuge crossbow cart I saw last time, there are also fifty additional Wang Hou crossed over behind it, Shu Han doesn't know where to get the structure, the imitation of the medium-sized return cannon, one by one like the arms of giants, swaying scattered with Sen Ran's killing machine.

In this medieval era, the Shu army was well-equipped and well-trained, but unfortunately, it was Wang Hou, a cheater, who was fighting, at the end of the canyon, a swarthy Wei character banner was proudly floating, and the front of the military formation was crouching on the ground, densely packed with more than 2,000 small tiger squat cannons, and behind were two Wang's crossbows.

Wang Hou's heavy infantry formation has been seen many times, and there is no need to repeat it, this time there is a new appearance on the battlefield, and there is also a Wei army fortress fort fixed on Taibai Mountain, facing the old road of Chen Cang.

Steel mixed with cement on the steep mountain to build a towering fortress, very Western medieval castle look, a towering garrison tower built against the mountain, three sides of the same towering wall, placed large and small 200 garrison guns, dense guns aimed at the narrow mountain old road to all corners.

Zhuge Liang's army was equivalent to the equipment of the early Crusades, while Wang Hou's army was equivalent to the equipment of the late Middle Ages and the late Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Zhuge Liang also wanted to imitate artillery, but Wang Hou set up this Eternal Fire Dao Regiment, and took the first step to bring out most of the alchemists in the country, and the power of the magic stick under his hands was revealed.

Looking at Prime Minister Zhuge who was pushed by someone with a small wheelchair and shook a feather fan with a special pretence, but his brows were tightly locked, and his handsome face was as worried as a bad artist who was banned in later generations, Wang Hou once again sat on the shoulders of eight people in the style of the governor of Dongchang, and greeted him arrogantly.

"I haven't seen you for three years, but Prime Minister Zhuge is still the same! But the prime minister's stubbornness is really the same! The prime minister is not in Chengdu to enjoy the leisurely landscape, so he has to come to my poor mountains and bad waters, and collide with this iron lump, why bother? ”

Sitting on the same high chair as Gonggong Cao in Dongchang, looking down at Zhuge Liang who was sitting in a wooden car, Wang Hou deliberately shook his head with a bitter face, but between the words, the ridicule was full, and Zhuge Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard it, and he shook the goose feather fan.

"A few days ago, Daxingtai encouraged a group of scholars to go west, and on the platform of Didao Station, a sentence is to make Zhuge someone remember deeply!"

also stood up, his eyes passed Wang Hou and the Tielin army behind him, and floated straight to the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, Zhuge Liang's originally handsome eyes gradually narrowed, becoming extremely sharp and greedy.

"Man! You have to have a dream, don't you? ”
