Chapter Seventy-Six: Heaven Has a Way, You Don't Go?

??? Two flowers bloomed, one for each table, Wen Chou's head in Jincheng broke the bloodstream, and when he couldn't advance or retreat, Yuan Shang led 80,000 horses and horses, marched westward, and entered the hinterland of the Hexi Corridor!

"Summoned General Yan Liang, the forward speed up, and went straight to Yumen Pass...... The rear team keeps up, and Zizhong can't be left behind! ”

In the valley, the Yuan army is also a 'long snake formation' marching, day and night, not daring to slack off, because of the full preparation, the soldiers did not suffer much, plus the heavens are beautiful, there are a few heavy rains, and the most difficult drinking water problem has also been solved!

However, the road was too narrow, 80,000 horses carried a large amount of grain and grass, and there were many vehicles with the army, so it was inconvenient to walk, and the degree of marching was extremely slow, which made the Yuan army very distressed!

"The third prince of Qiyu, the valley is narrow, the road is rugged, the army is difficult to march, I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up with the Yumen Pass in half a month, as the so-called late will change, once it is detected by Xiao Yi, 80,000 horses will die and there is no place to bury!

It is better to leave behind the heavy vehicles, the soldiers only bring their rations, day and night, and they can get out of the canyon within eight days, as long as they meet with General Jiang Qi, the big thing will be decided! ”

Feng Ji is a qualified strategist, seeing that the army is moving slowly, he immediately came up with a way to move forward lightly, which can not only speed up, but also stimulate morale, quite a 'break the cauldron and sink the boat, fight to the death' posture!

"The stakes are high, Rong Ben Gongzi thinks about it!" Looking at the slow-moving army, and looking at the bulky and unbearable Zizhong, Yuan Shang was in a dilemma!

On the one hand, what Feng Ji said is very reasonable, the key to a long-distance attack of the army is the word 'fast', if you miss the fighter plane, let Xiao Yi react, not to mention the previous efforts, it is impossible to retreat with all your might!

On the other hand, he was reluctant, these ordnance, grain and grass, he fought with his eldest brother Yuan Tan, and finally transported them from Yecheng to Xiliang, things were not easy to get, and he discarded the natural heartache, besides, discarding the grain and grass and moving forward lightly, the danger was too great, and he couldn't show that kind of courage!

Just when Yuan Shang was hesitating, a person walked out of the doorman team, no armor, no blade, golden crown, white robe to cover his body, indescribably chic and free--it was Sima Yi!

This expedition, Sima Yi also followed, named the messenger, actually a hostage, no matter where he went, there were Yuan soldiers around him to monitor, fortunately, he has been cautious in his words and deeds, there is no change, sometimes when the mountain road is difficult, take the initiative to help the soldiers push the cart, deep Yuan Jun up and down the praise!

"Grain and grass are heavy, the lifeblood of the army, how can you give it up lightly, if you are not talented, you are willing to bring a team of people and horses, supervise the vehicles, and will not make the army short of food and grass!" Sima Yi took the initiative to ask for help, and made a look of devotion and wanting to make meritorious contributions!

"Hehe, God-given talents, Zhongda is responsible for supervising the transportation of grain and grass, and my son is worry-free!"

Yuan Shang patted Sima Yi on the shoulder, such a genius to serve himself is gratifying, but he is not stupid enough to hand over the baggage to a 'newcomer', and the necessary surveillance cannot be missing!

"Pass the order, let Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan command 5,000 troops, and together with Mr. Zhongda, they will be responsible for escorting Zizhong, and the rest of the men and horses will advance lightly and go straight to Yumen Pass!"

"No!"

At the sound of an order, Yuan's army immediately took action, ordnance, grain and grass, gongs and drums, horns, tents, banners, and ...... All of them were thrown to the side of the road, and the soldiers went into battle lightly, the wind and smoke billowed out, and they went straight to Yumen Pass!

"The army of 80,000 went west, and after a few days, I don't know how many people survived?"

Looking at the lightly armed Yuan army, Sima Yi sneered, the Metropolitan Governor is as cunning as a fox, the best at cavalry raids, cutting off the enemy's rear road, Yuan Shang wants to attack Yumen Pass, I'm afraid he will go directly into the Ghost Gate Pass, right?

"Some people are sent to death, some people are trying to survive, no matter what the situation changes, I will sit firmly in the grain truck, go slowly, and maybe watch a good show......"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Without the drag of Zizhong, Yuan Jun kept going, day and night, advancing for as many as seventy or eighty miles a day, and did not encounter any resistance along the way, and passed through the dangerous area very smoothly, and was about to reach Yumen Pass!

On the sixth day, at dusk, Yuan Jun finally walked out of the canyon and came to an open land, where the terrain was flat, the sun was leeward, and the clear river flowed, but it was a good place to camp!

"Guide, what kind of place is here, where the feng shui is so good?" After holding back in the canyon for six or seven days, he suddenly came to an open field, and Yuan Shang felt a sense of relaxation and joy, indescribably comfortable!

"If you go back to the third prince, this place is the dry water river, a month ago, Xiao Yi and Ye Luosu fought a decisive battle here, more than 200,000 horses, fought for several days and nights, the corpses were like mountains, and the blood flowed like a river, comparable to Shura hell!"

Speaking of which, the guide officer looked up, a tall mound was not far away, the wind was gusting, and the evil spirit was rushing to the sky, it was the 'Jingguan' built by Xiao Yi, take a look, let the soul fly out of the sky!

"Since there is a clear spring flowing, why is it still called 'dry water river', it is too unlucky, and this place will be renamed 'good water river' in the future, so as to bless our army and go on a good journey!"

Hearing that this is the place where Xiao Yi defeated the soldiers and established great military exploits, Yuan Shang couldn't help but feel a chill, but in front of his subordinates, he couldn't lose face, so he simply changed the name of the place and replaced the feng shui, and also said that he was not afraid of Xiao Yi!

"The third prince has a high opinion, the name of the place is changed, the feng shui is broken, the enemy's sharp air is discharged, and the power of our army's courage is enhanced, and this battle will be won!"

"The ghost-faced Xiao Lang is brutal and unkind, he only knows how to kill blindly, and the hearts of the people are lost, how can he compare the benevolence of the third prince to the unparalleled love, and the world admires it!"

"I wish the third prince a victory, success, and the twelve counties of Xiliang, making great contributions, and succeeding in the hegemony!"

………………………………………………

There are bragging, there are patting horses, a group of doormen rushed up, around Yuan Shang vigorously advocated, it was really a wild show, the ground swelled golden lotus, and it was almost held to the sky, and the moon was eaten with the tengu!

"This place is dangerous, the army should not stay for a long time, it is better to urge people and horses to go, and when it is safe, it is not too late to set up camp again!"

There are villains who shoot horses, and there are also loyal and intelligent people, Feng Ji came to the front and bluntly admonished, just now he looked around, vaguely felt a burst of murderous aura, as if he was being peeped at by a vicious wolf, and his heart was very uneasy!

"What are you afraid of, this place is open, and there is a spring flowing, which is just suitable for camping, so that the soldiers can repair well, and after eating and drinking, the soldiers will enter the Yumen Pass and succeed in one fell swoop!"

The more people advise, the more rebellious Yuan Shang becomes, this is also easy to understand, young people have a good face, Xiao Yi is here to kill, build a view of Beijing, and show his majesty, don't you even dare to stay for a while?

Besides, soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, and there have been many battles throughout the ages, but in just one month, the matter of setting up an ambush in the same place has never been born, and no commander dares to use troops like this.

"Is this ...... Childe has a point! ”

Seeing Yuan Shang's displeasure, Feng Ji didn't dare to say more, the Yuan family has always been mean and unkind, and it is not a good thing to offend the third son, in addition, he also thinks that there will be no ambushes here, and there will be two ambushes in a month, isn't it a joke?

"Let's go, let's go and see the 'Jingguan' built by Xiao Lang, this person is bloodthirsty, miserable, this son will be captured sooner or later, put in an iron cage, and transported back to Hebei, let the world see, who is the number one general in the world!"

Looking at the mound in the distance, Yuan Shang was afraid in his heart, but he pretended not to care, and surrounded by many guests, he beat his horse and galloped over!

'Jingguan' is huge, with a radius of forty or fifty zhang, more than twenty zhang high, looking like a mound from afar, only to see its true face when you go closer:

The corpse was full of bones and horrors, and it was full of human remains, arms, thighs, ribs, shoulder blades, nails, ......, and even rotting skulls, with large mouths and black hole eyes, as if crying about their misfortunes......

"Hiss! …… Vomit! …… Wow! ”

Shocking, the doormen who bragged just now and patted the horse, some rolled their eyes, some trembled, some lay on the horseback and vomited wildly, almost vomiting the overnight meal, Yuan Shang's stomach also turned sour water, as long as it was for the sake of face, he swallowed it back, but his little face was as white as paper, war is not wind and snow, but you live and die!

"Three sons, look, there's a wooden sign there!" Vomited for a while, and the sharp-eyed doorman screamed, fingers high!

"Wooden Plaque...... Where is it? ”

Yuan Shang looked up, and sure enough, there was a white wooden plaque inserted on the 'Jingguan', which looked extremely lonely under the sunset, and there were ink stains on it. ”

"Not good...... There's an ambush here! ”
