Chapter 270: The Southern Barbarian King is treacherous, Tao Gongzu sends generals to resist Cao

King Duosi received Meng Shu and invited Meng Huo and his party into the cave, and then asked, "Why did the barbarian king come this time?" ”

After that, Meng Shu will talk in detail about the battle with Liu Bei and King Duosi. And when King Doth learned of this, he was furious, and then said indignantly:

The king was relieved. If Liu Bei doesn't come, it's okay, if Liu Bei dares to lead the army to come here, I dare to ask him to ride back into Sangguan! It is even more called Liu Bei's death without a place to be buried! ”

Suddenly overjoyed, he hurriedly asked, "It's so wonderful, I don't know what the king has to do?" ”

King Duosi did not hide it: "If you want to go north through this cave, there are only two roads, one from the northeast to the north, this road is flat, the soil is thick and the water is sweet, and it is feasible for people and horses."

But the road is narrow, and there are high mountains on both sides, and if the entrance of the cave is broken by wood and stone, although there are millions of people, they cannot enter;

There is also a road for marching from northwest to north, the mountains are treacherous, most of them are small roads, not easy to pass, and there are many poisonous snakes and poisonous insects in the mountains, and those who are not familiar with it must have difficulty marching;

And at dusk, the miasma of smoke rises greatly, and does not dissipate until the hour of the hour and the noon, and the energy of this valley is intended to pass through the three hours of Wei, Shen, and You; And the water in the mountains is not drinkable, and it contains poisonous smoke and miasma.

There are four poisonous springs here: a dumb spring, whose water is so sweet that if one drinks it, one cannot speak, but one will die in ten days;

The second is to extinguish the spring, this water is no different from the soup, if a person bathes, the skin and flesh are rotten, and the bones will die;

The three are called black springs, the water is slightly clear, if people splash on their bodies, their hands and feet are black and die;

Fourth, the soft spring, its water is like ice, if a person drinks it, there is no heating in the throat, and the body is weak like cotton and dies.

There are no insects or birds here, but General Han Fubo has arrived; Since then, no one has been here.

In this way, we can lead the army to the north, and block the northeast road with mountains and rocks and giant trees, so Liu Bei will have no choice but to pass through the northwest road to the north to attack the hinterland of the south!

The path is quite long, and when Liu Beijun has no water, he must take these four springs to drink, so even if Liu Bei has a million troops, he will inevitably die here!

And we led the army to lurk at the exit of the northwest valley, if Liu Bei ordered a big escape from the valley, we waited in ambush and annihilated! ”

Meng Shu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then sighed: "Such a great kindness, I, Meng Shu, can also avenge the previous two fiascos!" ”

So he and King Duosi ordered 50,000 troops, and practiced day and night. At the same time, scouts were sent to observe Liu Bei day and night!

Later, Meng learned that Liu Bei really did not send troops, but waited in Sangguan, but said to Mrs. Zhurong:

"I don't think Liu Bei is more than Erer, I just say a lie, and he actually believes it!"

So, since then, Meng Huo and Meng You have been singing and dancing with King Duosi all day long!

………

Let's say that after Guan Yu dealt with the affairs of the vulture bone and the Ugo country, he did not rush into the army, but there were three main reasons:

First, there was a one-month agreement with Meng Huo, even though he knew that Meng Huo would inevitably not be trustworthy, but Liu Bei needed to separate Meng Huo and the vultures;

Second, after a series of battles, the soldiers who came all the way from Jiaozhou and Yizhou were quite tired, and many soldiers were injured, and Liu Bei's soldiers were greatly reduced, and if necessary, these wounded will be allowed to return to the army after recovery!

Third, Liu Bei did not have detailed information about Meng Shu's next step, and Nanzhong was a dangerous place, so Liu Bei did not enter the army in a cautious and cautious manner!

On this day, Liu Bei was training soldiers with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others, and suddenly reported the news of Meng Huo, and then, Liu Bei and Xun You, Xu Jing and Xi Zhong listened to Meng Huo's information and learned that Meng Huo went to King Duosi to ask for troops!

After Xun You listened, he said: "Lord, it seems that the total amount of Meng Huo is not dead, and now there is detailed information about Meng Huo, does the lord lead the army to fight against Meng Huo?" ”

Liu Bei shook his head when he heard this: "No, this matter needs to be considered in the long run!" ”

For King Duosi, how can Liu Bei, who is familiar with history and familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, not familiar with it, but Liu Bei can't be sure whether the four poisonous springs under the command of King Duosi really exist, and the problem of sending troops to attack King Duosi!

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Bei said to the three of them: "We don't know much about this Bald Dragon Cave, if we want to attack the King of Duosi, we can only send scouts to explore the geography of the Bald Dragon Cave first, and then make plans!" ”

A few days later, the scouts reported that King Doth and Meng Shu had migrated all the people in the Bald Dragon Cave to the north! At the same time, King Doth's army of 50,000 also withdrew north!

When Xi Zhong heard this, he thought about it and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, presumably this Meng Shu is not going to fulfill his promise!" And its whole army is going north, it seems that there is some certainty of victory! Therefore, the lord has to guard against it! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled and said: "I already know about this matter, and when the time comes, the place will be the place to enter the army!"

However, Meng Huo has no faith, but we can't be unrighteous, since I promised Meng Huo to wait for a month, I will wait here for a month in Sangguan, and then I can send troops! ”

In this way, for the first time since Liu Bei's attack, there was no war in the entire southern part of the country within a month.

However, the entire Han world was not peaceful, and most of the Yizhou soldiers who were defeated by Liu Bei in Jinsang Pass were captured by Liu Bei, but still some of them fled back to Yizhou County!

The defeated soldiers who returned to Yizhou County told Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang in detail the details of the battle of Jinsangguan. Liu Zhang's subordinate military ministers came to the conclusion in three days that the Southern Barbarian King Meng Shu would inevitably be unable to resist Liu Bei!

Therefore, Liu Zhang ordered to prepare for Liu Bei, and at the same time sent envoys to Jingzhou and Yangzhou to inform Liu Biao and Yuan Shu that Liu Bei sent troops to enter Nanzhong in Yizhou!

Because of the urgency of the situation, it took less than ten days for the envoys from Chengdu to arrive in Nanhai County and Yulin County in Jiaozhou.

After Yuan Shu learned that Liu Bei had attacked Yizhou Nanzhong, he only showed surprise, but because he didn't border Liu Bei at all, he was helpless!

But he also promised that if Liu Biao attacked Liu Bei with all his might, he Yuan Shu would definitely not attack Liu Biao!

And Liu Biao was surprised when he learned that Liu Bei was attacking Yizhou Nanzhong, because from the elaboration of the envoy, Liu Biao knew that Liu Bei had nearly 200,000 troops in Nanzhong, and at the same time stationed 100,000 troops in Jiaozhi County, so Liu Bei had a full 300,000 troops in Jiaozhi County!

At this time, although Liu Biao stationed 250,000 troops in Yulin County and Hepu County, due to the dispersion of troops, it was impossible to effectively suppress the 100,000 army of Jiaozhi County with only 100,000 troops!

However, after learning that Yuan Shu would not attack Yulin County and Liu Zhang would not attack Jingzhou, Liu Biao once again recruited 20,000 young men from Yulin County, and Zhu Fu's troops totaling 40,000 troops were stationed in the east of Yulin County, symbolically guarding against Yuan Shu!

And the 50,000 Jingzhou elites who were originally guarding against Yuan Shu in the east were dispatched to the west, preparing to attack Liu Bei's Jiaozhi County!

As a result, the entire Cochin County was once again shrouded in the haze of war! As long as 50,000 reinforcements arrive, they will attack Cochin County!!

The war between Yanzhou and Xuzhou also entered a white heat, because the previous time Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou. Even slaughtered the city, therefore, this time Cao Cao threatened that if the city where the army arrives does not open the city gate within five days, then when the city is broken, both old and young will be slaughtered!

So, before Tao Qian could react, Cao Cao occupied the Peicheng State in Xuzhou. At this point, Tao Qian ordered Tao Shang and Cao Bao and Sun Qian to lead 100,000 troops in Donghai County to resist Cao Cao!
