Chapter 492: Falling Phoenix Slope
Xiao Shilian had also spoken, and Cao Zhong and the others also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. They were worried about whether Li Xinchen would be blamed, but now it seems that Li Xinchen has obviously expected Wei Chichen's arrangement.
Li Xinchen turned to look at Li Xun: "Be sure to find out Wei Xiaokuan's movements clearly." ”
"No!" Li Xun hurriedly agreed.
Stretching out his hand and clicking on the map, Li Xinchen said in a deep voice: "The movement of a certain person is not only on the Cangxi side, but also on the front line of Sword Pavilion and Jiameng Pass, Wei Xiaokuan has more than 30,000 elite soldiers and horses who have not yet participated in the battle, even if he comes to support Wei Chi Yuan, it is impossible for the whole army to press. In addition, now Tuas is also moving on the Mianzhu side, so it is not small that Wei Xiaokuan may divide his troops. ”
"Division?" Cao Zhong and the others were a little surprised.
Li Xinchen bowed slightly: "The line from Mianzhu to Shu County focuses on defense, so Wei Xiaokuan only needs to leave more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to support the battle." Of course, whether they can break through the defense of Tuas and Chen Zhishen is another matter. After all, now the key places of Mianzhu and Shu County are still in the hands of the Zhou people, as long as the connection between them is opened, the siege of Shu County will naturally be solved. ”
"We can't reach the whip in Mianzhu and Shu County, but Tuas will definitely take care of it." Xiao Shilian said in a deep voice.
"Contact more Ba tribes," Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and nodded in both the direction of Sword Pavilion and the direction of Xichong, "Try to intercept the communication between the enemies." ”
Li Xun and Du Qi hurriedly responded, this must be their task. And Li Xinchen's purpose in doing this is also very clear, as if he wants to make it difficult for Wei Xiaokuan to grasp the actual situation in the direction of Mianzhu, so as to cut off the communication between the enemy's various armies, and it is basically impossible to fight on the plains, and the scouts on both sides have always bitten fiercely, but it is difficult to really completely occupy the overwhelming advantage.
But in the mountainous region of Bashu, it is not impossible to achieve.
The communication of news between various parts of Bashu is mainly through the large and small roads that pass through the mountains, and the Ba people who have been in the mountains for a long time are naturally familiar with these roads. If Li Xinchen really wants to block the news, it's not that he can't do it.
"Scatter the scouts and probe back and forth along the two directions of Cangxi and Sunjiamen," Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "Don't dwell on the enemy's scouts, you have to know what Wei Chi Yuan is thinking now." ”
Wei Chi Yuan's soldiers were divided into two roads, one way to seize Cangxi, and the other road has been cowering in the rice cang mountain, without thinking about it, he knows that his current grain and grass is insufficient, and he can only rely on the rice cang mountain path to send forward little by little, so the grain and grass sent in this way is of course not enough for such a large army to consume day and night, so Wei Chi Hui must have some movement, otherwise he will sit and wait to die.
And the biggest possibility is to meet Wei Xiaokuan along Micang Mountain.
Looking at the look on Li Xinchen's face, Xiao Shilian couldn't help but speak lightly: "Shizhong, you don't plan to take the initiative at this time, right?" ”
Li Xinchen seemed to expect Xiao Shilian to have this problem, and said with a smile: "Sometimes attack is the best defense, and you can't pin all your hopes on Panlong County City and Tiangongyuan Mountain, after all, this city and mountain are fixed, and there is no way to change the tomb, even if the city defense is strengthened, it will be in the calculation and expectation of Wei Chi Yuan and Wei Xiaokuan." ”
There was a bit of coldness in his eyes, and Li Xinchen's smile didn't look so friendly: "Since these two old guys are coming to attack, it means that they have already calculated the situation nine times out of ten, whether it is Panlong County City or Tiangong Courtyard Mountain, there is no way to really stop them from advancing, so a certain must make a contingency." ”
Cao Zhong, Du Qi and others gave up their hands at the same time, and they now know a little bit about Li Xinchen's always unrestrained and bold behavior, so they don't refute it.
Everyone is already in the Jedi, if Li Xinchen is so tossed, it is not a good thing to be able to break this net.
And Xiao Shilian just rubbed his chin lightly, looking at Li Xinchen with blazing eyes.
This guy is sometimes cautious and cautious, sometimes bold, and he is lucky to meet such a companion in this life.

Falling phoenix slope, the place where the phoenix chick fell.
Luofeng Slope is located in front of the side of Mianzhu Pass, the hillside guards the road through the north and south of Mianzhu Pass, is the remaining vein of Lutou Mountain, but the hillside is steep, the mountain is wooded, it is a natural ambush place.
Three hundred years ago, he and Zhuge Kongming, who were called "dragons and phoenixes", were attacked and killed at the foot of this mountainside.
Three hundred years later, Zheng Kaiyuan is leading the soldiers on the mountain path. Because of the previous snowfall, there are still many places in the shade of the mountain where the snow has just melted, so the ground is very muddy. In addition, I don't know how many years of dead branches and leaves have accumulated, and if you are not careful, you may step into the mud with one foot.
Zheng Kaiyuan didn't understand Pei Zilie's order very well, but after getting along with Pei Zilie for so long, he already knew very well that this young Nanchen general had always paid attention to winning in stability and knew it well.
"Be careful!" One of the generals suddenly let out a low roar, "What person?!" ”
Immediately, the sword flashed, and Zheng Kaiyuan waved his hand almost subconsciously: "There is an enemy!" ”
Several Northern Zhou scouts found that their whereabouts were exposed, and they did not mean to directly meet the enemy, but turned around and fled in some embarrassment.
"Don't chase it!" Zheng Kaiyuan waved his hand, "Just send two scouts to follow, see where they are going, and if there are any other roads." ”
These scouts don't need to think that they are also sent by the defenders, all of them are thin and small, and they know at a glance that they are locals in the Bashu Mountains, and they act back and forth in this mountain, relying on their knowledge of the terrain.
Zheng Kaiyuan has not stayed in Bashu for a short time, especially guarding Diaoyu Mountain City all the year round, and knows the mountains of Bashu.
Several scouts walked quickly, and Zheng Kaiyuan walked straight forward again. The soldiers around him are not all his original subordinates - Zheng Kaiyuan said that he was a demoted general, and most of his subordinates were disorganized and reorganized, after all, many of them were old and weak and unsuitable for the battlefield at all.
What's more, even if all the soldiers and horses in Diaoyu City were in the prime of life at that time, whether it was Li Xinchen or Pei Zilie, it was impossible for one to descend to take them all. Zheng Kaiyuan has no objection to this, as a demoted general, it is already good to be reused, and the consciousness that should be there must be.
He was a contented man.
At this time, those soldiers who came from different places and did not have much contact with Zheng Kaiyuan saw that their master was so calm, and their hearts were also relieved.
"General, there's a small enemy camp ahead." A general walked briskly.
Zheng Kaiyuan raised his eyebrows: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look!" ”
