However, it is also strange to say that Guan Ping and Zhang Ren have been fighting for many days, but not a single soldier has been captured.

It's because Guan Ping's strategy is to fight if you can, and if you can't hit us, you will harass us, and if you don't shoot, you will definitely succeed, and if you don't shoot, you will inevitably howl.

roared to kill, but did not see the soldiers killed, and the other party was disgraced.

So it was not easy to catch the soldiers under Guan Ping's command.

The so-called Pingtou Valley is indeed the place where Guan Ping is located in five places where grain is stored, and it is the place where Guan Ping is located.

The soldier who fought Yan Yan this time was Li Le. Li Le saw his soldiers being captured with his own eyes, so he hurriedly retreated and sent someone to ride a short horse to Pingtou Valley to report the news.

The pony is a horse that specializes in crossing mountains and mountains, and it is a native horse in Yizhou, which is produced in Nanzhong and walks very fast on mountain roads, so Guan Ping soon received the news.

In the Pingtou Valley cottage, there are granaries, chariots and horses, and the personal soldiers of the two armies led by Guan Ping himself. When the news came, Guan Pingzheng was eating and drinking alone, and he had just finished exercising martial arts, and he was hungry. When Guan Ping heard this, he asked the person who reported the news to go down to rest first, and then called Pang Tong.

After Pang Tong came, Guan Ping told him the news. Guan Ping wanted to be a demon, so he said: "Yan Yan has about 10,000 people, and he needs to leave people and horses to guard the baggage." Shi Yuan, do you think I asked my own soldiers to wear armor and ambush him on the mountain road? If Yan Yan can be eaten, the situation will change immediately. ”

Pang Tong shook his head and said, "At present, we only need to delay time, and we can't make extraneous branches." It must be known that although the ironclad soldiers are elite, they are easy to fight and extremely difficult to retreat. If Yan Yan cannot be defeated, then Yan Yan's rear army will come, and it will inevitably be defeated. If they are defeated, the brutes will probably change. ”

The ironclad soldiers are very advantageous when they fight, but when they retreat, it is not the same thing.

At present, most of the Guan family's troops are stationed in Jingzhou, confronting Cao's army, and Hanzhong's strength is actually very weak. Guan Ping's attack on the barbarian king is already very risky.

Threatening the brutes with their families now is not a long-term solution. If Guan Ping is defeated for a while, the barbarians will rebel.

Pang Tong didn't want to make extraneous branches.

"Okay, come on, withdraw the troops and go to the mountain valley." Guan Ping nodded and summoned Zhou Xiong to deal with it. Zhou Xiong mobilized his soldiers, put grain on horses, and carried it out.

But it's such a place, and you can't even get into the car. Guan Ping mobilized many horses and donkeys in Hanzhong for pack transportation, and as for the mountain valley, it was only about five miles.

But it is very hidden, and outsiders rarely know about it.

You can carry grain back and forth, and before Yan Yan comes, the grain will be completely moved to the mountain valley. Yan Yan would not risk sending troops to look for him in the mountains again.

Guan Ping, Pang Tong and others went first, Guan Ping thought for a while, asked the soldiers to take a jar of Mi's wine, and then left the big tent of the Chinese army and put the Mi's wine in the big tent.

Guan Ping took out the silk cloth and wrote a line of words.

"General Yan is hard, please drink the general."

After writing this line, Guan Ping left.

And the fifty-mile mountain road is nothing to Yan Yan. Before dark, Yan Yan rushed to Pingtou Valley, but all he saw was an empty valley and a big tent.

"It's a step too late." Yan Yan sighed, and then entered the big tent, and saw the wine jar and the silk cloth left by Guan Ping. Picking it up and looking at it, Yan Yan opened the Mishi wine, tasted it first, and felt that it should not be poisonous, so he swallowed it and said, "Good wine." ”

The pro-soldier next to him wanted to stop it, but he thought, what if it is poisonous?

"General. Do you want to search around, Guan Ping will definitely not go far to carry grain and grass. Yan Yan's battalion Sima hurriedly walked in from outside and asked.

"No need, deep mountains and old forests, how to find it? Even if he finds it, Guan Ping can burn the grain and grass and retreat calmly, and there are five places where he stores grain, five places. ”

Yan Yan shook his head.

is the so-called cunning rabbit three holes, Guan Ping this guy, there are five places to store grain. If Yuan Shao was about Ping's cleverness back then, why would he be put on fire by Cao Mengde.

said that Yan Yan came to end the Guanping granary, not to settle the situation in one fell swoop.

After all, there are five places where grain is stored, and it doesn't make much sense to end one place. Yan Yan's purpose is just to vent his anger, fuck, he's been playing with us for more than a month.

I haven't even fought.

When Guan Ping was in Langzhong, he led 10,000 troops to fight me, what about the courage?

Eaten by a dog?

Immediately, Yan Yan sent someone to tell Wu Ban, who was already on the way to reinforcements, and sent someone to report to Zhang Ren of the Chinese army.

Regarding Zhang Ren, Yan Yan also put forward his own opinion, there is no way to fight this battle.

However, after Zhang Ren got the news, he immediately ordered Yan Yan, Wu Ban retreated, and the army retreated near Zhang Ren, and the army began to assemble.

After the camps were encamped, Zhang Ren sent someone to summon Yan Yan, and Wu Ban came to see him.

The valley where Zhang Ren's Chinese army is located, the barracks, and the Chinese army's big tent. Yan Yan was the last to arrive, he turned over and dismounted, and walked in from outside the account.

Zhang Ren, Wu Ban, Huang Quan, Ling Bao, Deng Xian and other generals are already there.

"General Zhang." Yan Yan hugged his fist to Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren returned the salute and asked Yan Yan to sit down. When everyone arrived, Zhang Ren said, "I discussed it with Master Huang. Under such circumstances, it is completely impossible for us to walk through the rice barrage road before the rainy season arrives. Once the rainy season arrives, it will be difficult to transport grain. Advance and retreat, I'm afraid it will be taken advantage of by Guan Ping. But in this way, I am unwilling to retreat. We plan to build four mountain castles on Yonekura-do that we occupy. ”

"Mountain City?!" Yan Yan, Ling Bao, Deng Xian, Wu Ban and others looked moved.

Immediately, Zhang Ren took out the map, summoned the generals over, and said, "Now we have walked half of the rice cang road, although it is a nest." But Guan Ping told us that the terrain of the mountain road here is very favorable. Guan Ping can rely on the terrain to attack us. If we build four mountain castles on the rice cang road, plus arrange checkpoints and passes, we can not only attack and harass, but also garrison. ”

After Zhang Ren finished speaking, he pointed to the four places on the map, which were three mountains and a valley.

"We built mountain cities in three places, stationed 10,000 troops each, and stored food. These three mountain towns are cone-shaped, holding on to dangerous points. Then build a strong city in this valley, as a support, 20,000 soldiers. In this way, we can block Guan Ping out of Daba Mountain. If Guan Ping enters Bazhong, I really don't know how to defend it. ”

Zhang Ren said again.

The generals nodded their heads, Guan Ping's fight, once the army is more, as many as 50,000, once it enters Bazhong from Micang Road, the terrain in Bazhong is flat, and the two sides will fight, it will definitely not be as good as Guan Ping.

But it is much better to keep the enemy out of the country.

However, if 50,000 troops are stationed on Daba Mountain, there is still a serious problem, grain and grass, and baggage. It needs to be transported from Shuzhong

Because after the battle of Guanping and Pangxi, the prosperity of Bazhong is not as good as before, and the food supply will be very difficult. In addition, the three counties of Padang, Brazil, and Ba County also need to be garrisoned.

Grain must be supplied by Shuzhong, the truth is hundreds of thousands of miles, and over the mountains and mountains, in the long run, it will inevitably be a heavy burden.

But there is no other way.

Zhang Ren talked to the generals for a while, after building the mountain city as a line of defense. He also said: "I have also analyzed with Master Huang that although there is constant news coming from Jingzhou, it may be extremely difficult for Cao Cao to stay in Jingzhou for a long time. The worst plan is that the Guan family will get Jingzhou. At that time, when the Guan family entered Bashu, they could also take the land route, through Badong, by water, and directly to Ba County. General Wu, you lead your troops back to Padang immediately and build passes and cities. General Yan, you also immediately withdraw your troops and go back to Ba County, and our lord will give you more troops. You build warships and train sailors. to do what you need. As for the four generals in Nanzhong, they should not stay here for a long time, and if they stay for a long time, something will happen in Nanzhong. ”

Yan Yan, Wu Ban and the others understood, and immediately agreed and said goodbye.

After the generals left, Huang Quan and Zhang Ren began to divide their troops to the four predetermined places to build the city.

We also built four mountain cities, layered on top of each other, and began to arm them.

Everyone will be from the mountains in the future, and no one will want to bully anyone.

After sending troops, Zhang Ren began to write letters, asking Liu Zhang to act according to the plan. The most important thing is to increase Yan Yan, as well as Zhang Ren's own troops.

Zhang Ren oversaw 50,000 troops on the rice cang road.

Yan Yan led 15,000 elite soldiers to settle in Jiangzhou, including 10,000 sailors.

Wu Ban led 10,000 elite soldiers and stationed in Padang City.

Pang Xi was still the Taishou of Brazil County, leading 10,000 troops to defend Brazil.

The total number of troops is as high as 85,000, and the waterways, land routes, and mountain roads are all guarded, layer upon layer. Strictly guarded.

This is Zhang Ren, Huang Quan's strategy, Jinniu Road has Jiameng Pass, Baishui Pass, don't worry too much, only Bazhong is worried.

Crazy Burst Mode, begun.

Zhang Rendu began to retreat and build a mountain city. Naturally, the news quickly reached Guan Ping's ears.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Guan Pingben and Pang Tong bragged.

Pang Tong is a big mouth, good at talking, everyone is blowing nonsense, and there is nothing to do anyway. After the news came, Guan Ping and Pang Tong looked at each other.

Is the so-called only the state officials allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps?

Guan Ping annexed hundreds of thousands of Ba people on Ba Mountain, the advantage is to increase the population, the disadvantage, the disadvantage, now Zhang Ren is also squeezed in.

"Huang Quan is strategic, Zhang Ren is loyal and brave. When these two people get together, nothing good happens. I guess Huang Quan also made arrangements in the Patong area. This time it was miscalculated. General Ming, the next time you enter Bashu, it won't be so easy. Pang Tong touched his beard, and he was also a little worried.

Although it is said that the first strike is strong, and hundreds of thousands of barbarians have been annexed, Guan Ping entered Bashu this time and took a great advantage, but there are gains and losses.

"Actually, it doesn't matter, if Liu Zhang really has tens of thousands of troops on Bashan, it will be a long grain road from Shuzhong to Micang Road. How many people do you need to deliver food? How much do you need to eat on the way? Bashu is bound to be poor, and in the long run, maybe there will be problems within Bashu first. The people are not to be fooled. ”

Guan Ping was immediately relieved.

Let's talk about things in the future, during the Battle of Jingzhou, I successfully defended against Liu Zhang's attack, and I also got a big benefit, which is already good.

You can't be too greedy.
