Chapter 179: Good and Bad
Among the warships, Kong Ming repeatedly observed the map, carefully deducing the marching plan, trying to find out the flaws.
After all, it is impossible for Gao Ding to be idle and play the tricks of the real and fake Monkey King, and he did this to a large extent to attract Zhuge Liang!
Attracting Zhuge Liang and letting Zhuge Liang stay here, it is definitely that he has other goals, and he deliberately involves himself and can't catch up!
Li Hui's troops of the Middle Route Army walked through the mountains and forests, the road was time-consuming and difficult, the number was only about 2,000 people, they were to deal with the reinforcements from Yizhou, on the other hand, it can also be said that their whereabouts were the most hidden, so to a large extent, the enemy's target should have little to do with them!
The Western Route Army is the main force of the Southern Expedition, with as many as 20,000 of them, and these are all elite soldiers, which are enough to confront all the rebels head-on. Therefore, due to the strength of the Western Route Army, the enemy army will not, or will, secretly target the Western Route Army.
After some analysis, Kong Ming seemed to be the East Route Army looking like he was being targeted.
The Eastern Route Army is the person who supervises Ma Zhong under the door, and there are also 5,000 new elite soldiers of the Shu Kingdom, and the combat power is not bad, so it should not be a problem to take Ji Ke!
In view of the worries in his heart, Kong Ming had to follow the march route of the Eastern Route Army to try repeatedly on the map, and finally there was a place to enter Kong Ming's field of vision, Ji Ke is surrounded by mountains, if you want to enter Ji Ke, there is only one way, but that road has to pass through a mountain stream, the mountain stream is very long, if it is controlled by people, it can not only ambush others, but also play the role of closing the door, and seal Ji Ke County! Therefore, this stream is also called a ghost stream!
"Someone!"
Discovering this mountain stream that had never been in view in the past, Kong Ming gradually had a surprising and bold idea in his mind.
Soon, soldiers trotted in.
"Hurry back to Chengdu by water, and tell Your Majesty! There is a change in the south, let His Majesty send troops to Yongchang to rescue! ”
"No!" The soldier was ordered to leave the tent immediately.
"Prime Minister, you said Yongchang would be dangerous? How is this possible? Even though the current garrison of Yongchang is less than 1,000, our army is moving south in three ways from the Yandao Road, and almost occupies the road to the south, and it is impossible for the rebels to bypass us and reach Yongchang! ”
Shaking his head slightly, Kong Ming said lightly: "It's not to bypass, but to face Ma Zhong's Eastern Route Army head-on, and then continue to go north, capture Yongchang, and then hold on, trapping our army in Nanzhong!" ”
Hearing this, Yang Yi seemed to have heard some joke: "Prime Minister, this is even more impossible, Ma Zhong has five thousand people, including three thousand elite soldiers, not to mention Zhu Bao's two or three thousand miscellaneous troops, even if it is several times more, I am afraid that it will not be able to withstand Ma Zhong's people!" ”
After being silent for a while, Kong Ming had no evidence to prove his remarks. But he said: "What if they have the strength to defeat the headquarters of Ma Zhongdong's route army? Then they will be able to take down Yongchang easily! For the southern expedition, many defenders of Yongchang also participated in the southern expedition, and the defense at this time was almost non-existent! ”
"If we can defeat Ma Zhong's troops......" Yang Yi muttered as he looked down at the map, startled after a moment.
"If you can defeat Ma Zhong's troops, you can go straight to Yongchang along the avenue, within five days, Yongchang will be lost, once Yongchang is lost, our army's return road will be broken, and it will be trapped in Nanzhong!" Yang Yi seemed to recognize the seriousness of the problem, and her face was full of worry.
"Anguo, you must ensure that the waterway is safe, it only takes twelve or three days for our army to reach the Yandao by going against the current, if the waterway is blocked, it will take nearly a month to cross the mountains and forests, and our second batch of grain and grass should be located in the Yandao at this time, if the waterway is blocked, then our army's grain and grass will be insufficient, and now there is only twenty days of need!"
"No! The last general will be able to lead the army up the river! ”
Chengdu City, Imperial Palace, Fanghua Palace.
The hall was filled with flowers, as if spring was earlier than outside.
This is the dormitory that Liu Chan gave to Concubine Lian Li Qingxiao, the scale is large enough, the location is also good, mainly close to the study, so occasionally, Liu Chan often comes to visit the door and tease Concubine Lian.
There are few people in the harem and there are also the advantages of fewer people, at least there are many empty palaces, choose at will, and give him which Liu Chan you like.
Concubine Lian is definitely the most talented woman in the harem, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I can't help it, and there is a feeling of anger in my previous life when she speaks, but it is not too obvious, which makes people feel pity.
In ancient times, the clothing patterns and even colors were relatively simple and simple, and I saw Concubine Lian wearing a red brocade robe, moving her steps, walking a few steps, and then turning around with a smile on her face.
"Looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color! Your Majesty, is that so? ”
Sitting casually in front of the desk, drinking the soup carefully boiled by Concubine Lian, Liu Chan glanced at it, and it was indeed a little charming for a moment, and then laughed and said: "That's almost the feeling!" ”
"Hmph, what do you mean by the same, how much is the difference, Your Majesty always fools people like this!"
Putting down the dishes and bowls containing the soup, Liu Chan smiled and said: "How can you fool the concubine, it's almost not much!" ”
"Your Majesty, you are always on the right foot! There is no color in the sixth palace, is Your Majesty planning to find some more sisters to enter the palace? ”
"It depends!"
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Lian snorted dissatisfiedly.
"No, no, no! See how it happens later! ”
In order to help her father stand firmly in Chengdu, Concubine Lian Li Qingxiao always took the initiative to be with Liu Chan in the more than a month that Kong Ming was not in Chengdu, so she deliberately chose Fanghua Palace, a dormitory close to the study.
Through this period of time, Concubine Lian found that His Majesty in front of her was indeed lustful, always bullying herself, and definitely had the potential to be a faint king, but she was more diligent than her father said before, and she could stay in the study for more than three hours a day! Perhaps because of this, I can always say some beautiful verses, and there are many things that I don't know in conversation.
At first, he thought that this was a show for others to see, so he went to the study a few times and walked around, and found that he was really studying seriously, so he didn't bother, she was also from Shu, although he entered the palace with a purpose, but it was only to help his father Li Yan, but it was not to bring down a dynasty like other concubines in ancient times.
Looking at Concubine Lian's eyes with tears in her eyes and extremely aggrieved, Liu Chan's heart instantly softened, took her hand, and said: "I can't guarantee that there will be no other people around me in the future, but I can guarantee that I will always have you in my heart, no matter what the situation!" ”
It seems like a good promise, but it also has a lot of loopholes.
While the two were talking, a man in black armor walked in, as if he didn't care about everyone's rules.
Seeing this, Liu Chan got up and walked over, and when he saw Liu Chan, the man immediately knelt on one knee, took out a secret letter from his arms, and handed it to Liu Chan.
