Also on August 9, Hanzhong County, Shuhan, Lecheng. A military conference is being held in an extremely heavy atmosphere.

Present at the meeting were Wang Han, the supervisor of the Hanzhong Legion, Jiang Bin, the protector of the Hanzhong Legion, Liu Yin, the golden governor of Hanzhong, Fu Yan, the governor of Yang'anguan, Jiang Shu, the governor of Wu'an, and more than 60 officers above the rank of captain and captain of other major strongholds of the Hanzhong Legion.

Since the death of Hu Ji, the commander of the Hanzhong Army, last year, no new commander of the Hanzhong Army has been appointed, as the Shu Han court was busy cutting Jiang Wei's military power.

According to the idea of the courtiers of Shu Han, after taking Jiang Wei, the mobile corps was dismantled to strengthen the defense of Hanzhong. From then on, he was mainly defensive against Cao Wei for ten years. And the new general is automatically the commander of the Hanzhong Corps - Liu Chan and Huang Hao are scheduled to be Yan Yu.

Unfortunately, due to Jiang Wei's resistance, the plan to split the mobile corps could not be implemented for the time being. The Shu Han court was afraid that Jiang Wei would be forced too quickly and cause Jiang Wei to rebel, so it adopted the method of killing people with a soft knife: the backbone officers of the mobile corps were transferred to serve in Hanzhong - Liu Yin, Fu Yan, and Jiang Shu were all from the mobile corps.

Since there was no commander, the meeting was presided over by Wang Han, the supervisor of the Hanzhong Legion.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the information that came from Fuxing Trading Company some time ago has been verified by Si Wencao. The puppet Wei did come from the nest this time, and marched in three ways, with a total of 180,000 troops. Among them, there were 120,000 enemy troops in the direction of our Hanzhong. ”

The meeting room was quiet, and everyone knew that. There's nothing to marvel at - besides, Cao Wei's first two attacks were not much less powerful than this one.

"According to the new Hanzhong defense strategy formulated by the imperial court two years ago. If the puppet Wei attack in a big way, our army will give up the exits of each valley and let the other side enter the Hanzhong Basin. After that, the walls were cleared in various places, relying on the city defenses in various places. The General's Mobile Corps will swim in the basin...... When the enemy division is exhausted, the cities will fight together and cooperate with the mobile corps to encircle and annihilate the enemy army......"

"Let's first check the wheat harvest near the walled cities. Well, Ben will come first. Lecheng, which will be seated, I believe you have seen it on the way here, and all the wheat fields have been harvested. Xinmai has been fully stocked. The people of the wilderness have also entered the city. With Lecheng as the center, within a radius of twenty miles, the puppet Wei army will not be able to collect a grain of grain and catch a single person......"

The area of Hanzhong County is not small, but the area of Hanzhong Basin is not large. Ninety-nine percent of the population controlled by the Hanzhong County government is concentrated in the Hanzhong Basin. So the population is actually relatively simple. As long as the city guards in Hanzhong use a little dim sum, they can basically let the Wei army enter the Hanzhong Basin, and they can't even find a person to lead the way.

"Seoul, where the official is seated, has also completed the harvest of new wheat and put it into storage, and all the surrounding people have entered the city."

"The same is true of Yang'an Guancheng, where the lower officials are seated."

"The Golden City where the old man sits has also completed the above affairs."

"Uh...... Wuxing City, where the lower officials sit, uh, has basically completed the above affairs. ”

"Bang!" Wang Han slapped the table fiercely on the main seat: "Jiang Zichang! Speak well! What is basic? Done is done, and unfinished is unfinished. The official's ears don't want to hear the vague basic words! ”

"The prison army forgives the sins....... the lower officials....... the lower officials ......."

"Forget it, sit down for me! Is the vice president of Wuxingcheng coming? ”

"See the supervising army, Wang Peng, the deputy general of Wuxingcheng, is here."

"How are you doing these things in Wuxing City?"

Hearing Wang Han's words, Wang Peng lowered his head and was silent for a while.

"What's wrong? Dumb? Speak! ”

Wang Peng first glanced at Jiang Shu helplessly, and then gritted his teeth: "Forgive the prison army, Wuxingcheng has not yet started the above affairs." ”

"What?" At this moment, not only Wang Han, but also the other officers in the conference room exclaimed in unison.

Wang Han stood up suddenly, ran to Jiang Shu's position, and kicked Jiang Shu fiercely: "What are you doing?" In late July, the official had already written to the cities, saying that it was likely that the puppet Wei would attack on a large scale this year. Therefore, as soon as the wheat fields around the cities were ripe, the people were immediately organized to harvest them. Your Wuxing City is a little further north than Yang'an Pass, and the wheat has already ripened, why hasn't it been harvested until now? What are you doing in the field with wheat? Do you want to be an enemy? ”

"Forgive the prison army, please allow the officials to ......"

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense! Because it's too late for anything at this time! Protector, I want to remove Wuxing Governor from his post and investigate, what do you mean? ”

"Agreed!"

"Well, the people will obey the order! Jiang Shuwu was dismissed from the post of governor of Xingcheng. Wang Peng, the deputy general of Wuxingcheng, temporarily acted as the governor of Wuxing. After Vice President Wang returned to the city, he immediately burned all the wheat fields near Wuxing City. The army and people of Wuxing City all entered Yang'an Pass and strengthened the defense of Yang'an Pass! ”

"Whoa!"

"As for Jiang Zichang, well, you will go to Lecheng ......"

"Prison army, the subordinate officer has a word."

"Huh? What does Zilian (Fu Yan) say? ”

"Supervising the army, Xia Guan and Brother Zichang cooperated for a long time in the mobile corps in the early years. We are familiar with each other. Since the supervising army let the soldiers and civilians of Wuxing City enter Yang'an Pass, which is guarded by Xiaguan, it is better to let Brother Zichang also serve in Yang'an Pass. In this way, the army and people of Wuxing City are also convenient to arrange. ”

"Hmm~~~ Okay. Jiang Zichang, when you go to Yang'an Pass, you have to do things well. If there is a repeat offense, this official will not tolerate mercy! ”

"Whoa! Thank you for your mercy. ”

"Well, that's the end of it. Ladies and gentlemen, I now move on to the next item. Arrange the specific defense of each city. Left and right, on the map. ”

The four soldiers walked into the conference room with a large map, and after unfolding it, the entire center of the conference hall was completely occupied.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the map made by Guan Zifeng, the Taishou of Fuling County, for our Hanzhong Legion. It's really much clearer than the map we used before. ”

"Now the total strength of my Hanzhong Corps is only 12,000 people. Inability to fight the enemy in the field. If 10,000 people are scattered in more than ten strongholds, it is impossible to escape the fate of being defeated by the enemy because the defense forces are too scattered. Therefore, after discussing with the Protector (Jiang Bin) and the Golden Governor (Liu Yin). The following arrangements were made for the strength of our army. ”

More than 60 officers all stood up and bowed their hands: "I will wait for the orders of the prison guards." ”

"The two cities of Hancheng and Lecheng are the two largest cities in the Hanzhong Basin, and the people and grain and grass stored in them are the largest, so these two cities are divided into 2,500 people each. Then we recruited another 2,500 men from the veterans and young men in the city. In this way, the two cities each had 5,000 troops to defend. ”

"The Golden City." Wang Han pointed his finger to the far point on the east side of Seoul and Lecheng: "This is the first line of defense for the enemy's Weixing County soldiers to enter my Hanzhong, even if we let go of the valley now to let it in, but for the future." We can't give up here, we have to stick to it. So the garrison here is 2,000 people, and Huran (Liu Yin) is in charge of defense. ”

"The old man takes the order!"

"The remaining 5,000 people have all entered Yang'an Pass." When Wang Han said this, he said to Fu Yan with a solemn expression: "Zilian." I guess the commander of the puppet Wei will not be so stupid and will capture the cities in Hanzhong one by one. His main goal was to break through Yang'an Pass as soon as possible in order to enter Zitong County before the general returned to help. So I and the Protectors, Huran and I have been surrounded for a long time at most, and it is you who really have to go through a hard battle! Yang'an Pass is the bottom of the bag in Hanzhong, if the bag is broken, the general's strategy of luring the enemy deep and annihilating it while his soldiers are exhausted will be completely bankrupt. Therefore, all kinds of heavy tasks have to be borne by Lao Zilian! ”

"Please rest assured that Fu Yiding and Yang'an Guan will live and die together. If you are there, then the city is there! ”

……

The meeting was dismissed, and Fu Tong and Jiang Shu rode out of Lecheng in parallel.

"Brother Jiang, what's going on over there in Wuxingcheng? With Brother Jiang's talent, how could he not complete the harvest of the wheat field and the gathering of the people for so long? ”

"Alas, Zilian, you don't know. In the fields around Wuxing City, there are seven CDs that are the fields of the former Hu Hussar (commander of the Shu Han Hanzhong Legion, right hussar general Hu Ji)! There are less than 2,000 people under the jurisdiction of Wuxing City, but the Hu family has more than 2,000 tenants near Wuxing...... The Hu family doesn't let the harvest, what can be done for the brother? ”

"What? Hu Hu has been riding in Hanzhong for all these years, and he has accumulated such a large family property? Is...... It's really ....... then why didn't Brother Jiang make it clear at the venue? ”

"Brother Xian, how can such a thing be said in the venue? Hu Huqi is dead, but his younger brother Hu Bo is still serving as a secretary of the CD. That's when you can see Your Majesty regularly. ”

"So what? How can such a military event be child's play? Brother Jiang should still explain to the prison and guard troops at the meeting. ”

- Humph! Fu Yan, back then, Liu Bei's big-eared thief was burned in Yiling, and there was no way to go to the sky and no way to go to the ground, and your father Fu Tong died in a heroic battle to cover the big-eared thief's escape. From now on, you can walk sideways in this small country of Xishu - with the halo of the son of a martyr, no one dares to do anything to you. But I, Jiang Shu, am different, I am a native of Yizhou and come from a poor background. Once you offend the Jingzhou boss, you will die if you are not careful. How dare I expose the Hu family's affairs at a meeting attended by so many people? Don't I want to live anymore?

Seeing that Jiang Shu was silent, Fu Tong smiled heartily: "Brother Jiang, it's okay." This time the puppet Wei came to attack in a big way, and it was the time for my generation to make contributions. When the time comes, our brothers will work together to let that bell meet in Yang'an Pass, and Brother Jiang will naturally be reinstated. Oh, no, maybe another one. ”

"Huh." Jiang Shu barely squeezed out a smile: "Then you have to be more partial to Brother Lao." ”
