Fengxiang was not far from Chencang, and Chen Xu led the Hujie army to march to Chencang in less than half a day. The whole army was encamped, prepared to rest for a few days, and waited for the military food and equipment to be mobilized in the rear, and then sent out the troops after they were ready.

He did not summon the generals, but first invited Yuan Jizhong to come to meet.

When he first arrived in Fengxiang, he asked Yuan Jizhong to be responsible for contacting the left-behind people who were disguised as goods dealers to learn about the recent situation of the Shu army since the beginning of this year.

Yuan Jizhong came to the courtyard where the Chinese army was temporarily rushed.

After a long time as a martial artist, Chen Xu revealed the straightforward style of a military general when he spoke and did things, and said straightforwardly: "What are the changes of the Shu army in Tangcang and other places?"

Yuan Jizhong hugged his fists and said: "The last general is in contact with Xizuo, it is said that since the first month of today, the Shu army has repeatedly increased troops in Tangcang Town and other places, and now there are about 6,000 troops in Tangcang Town, and I don't know how much food and grass we have."

Mobilizing a large army and transporting grain and grass like this, compared with the goods of the merchants, the movement is not small, and it is an official road, which naturally cannot be concealed, and falls in the eyes of those who have a heart.

"How is Xingzhou?" Chen Xu asked.

"The army of Shu from Xingzhou and other places came up from Qingniling, one after another, about 20,000 people passed by, as for the grain and grass, it was far away, and it was impossible to see the details up close, and it was not clear how much."

"Oh... Does the Shu army have to pass through Qingniling when entering Shu Road? Chen Xu couldn't help but ask.

Jing Niang said on the side: "I went to Shu in my early years, and spent the night in Qingniling Nunnery, which has a post house on Qingniling, which belongs to the official road. There are also some trails near Qingniling, but they are rugged, overgrown with grass and trees, all of which are smuggled by smugglers, and the surrounding area is rarely populated, which is not suitable for the army to march, and it is heavy to transport grain and grass. Therefore, it is impossible for the Shu army to take this kind of path, and the Shu army from Xingzhou can only pass through Qingniling for reinforcements. ”

Chen Xu glanced at Jing Niang with a slight surprise, it seems that she has done some homework these days.

Yuan Jizhong nodded: "It's indeed as Miss Zhao said."

Chen Xu pointed to the place marked with the word "Qingniling" on the map he drew and sorted out his thoughts.

If he leads a large army out of Sanguan, he must first end up the ten military villages blocking the road in the Shu Road, so that he can approach all the way to the mighty city, and at the same time, he must not prevent the threat of the army stationed in Tangcang Town to attack the grain road in the rear of the Hujie army, so as not to take the city and cut off the grain road, and the dilemma of being in a dilemma......

Thinking of this, my thoughts cleared the clouds and gradually became clear.

Chen Xu first asked a few people to retreat first, and then sent someone to notify the commanders under his command to come to see him.

In the establishment of the forbidden army, the position of commander is a position that connects the upper and lower levels. Generally speaking, the orders from the top are conveyed by the commander, and the top does not intervene in the affairs below the commander, so the commander is the direct leader of the middle and lower ranks.

He also led the commanders of the first and second armies of the left wing of the Hujie Army, with a total of twelve commanders under his command.

All the armies are Marquis Yu, the commanders, a total of fourteen generals, and then Chen Xu took He Meng, Suo Hu and other entourage generals into the conference hall, and the generals in the hall bent down to salute and said: "Meet Chen Du's envoy."

Chen Xu waved his hand, and then sat down on the chair on the upper seat, and the generals below were divided into two columns according to the order of their positions, and looked sideways at Chen Xu on the main seat in front of him.

Chen Xu's gaze swept over the faces of the generals under his command, and he said: "Three days later, the whole army of our army will leave Chencang and march in the direction of Sanguan."

"The goal of this battle is very clear, first defeat the ten military villages in front of the mighty city, and the troops will come to the mighty city. The defenders of the Shu army are unknown, but the Shu road is narrow, and it is impossible to garrison too much, so I decided to send two commanders in front and take turns to attack, and the main force of the army will be postponed and advanced in turn, striving for a good start in the first battle! ”

As soon as the words fell, the generals below coaxed and asked for battle.

In the eyes of everyone, this errand is a good thing to pick up military merits in vain. There are many countries, and Wei is not the only country in the world, and no one is convinced by anyone, but the Wei Dynasty is regarded as the Zhengshuo of the Central Plains by many countries, relying on nothing else, relying on strong force. Shu has not been in war for more than 30 years, and the lord of Shu who is on the throne of the emperor does not repair armaments, and loves beauty more than he loves the country.

The eight military fortresses deployed are just military strongholds arranged by the Shu army as a buffer and vigilance, with a small number of people and low difficulty, but this battle is the first battle, and it is also very prominent when discussing merit.

The generals also held this idea in their hearts, and suddenly someone shouted: "The last general is willing to be the forerunner!" Everyone wants to seize this opportunity and make a big fortune.

The scene seemed noisy and noisy, Chen Xu hurriedly waved his arm to stop it, and said loudly: "The first commander of the first army and the second commander are out of the ranks."

One commander has about 500 people, and two commanders have nearly 1,000 people.

Suddenly, two generals with happy faces stepped forward and clasped their fists, and said one after another: "The last general."

Chen Xu ordered: "Our army will deploy and march in sequence according to the order of troops, and the two of you will each lead your men and horses to attack the military village, take turns to attack, and gradually advance, such as the first commander to fight the first, the second commander to rest, and the second commander to fight the second, the first army will take advantage of the gap to rest and take turns to rest."

One of the black-faced men patted his chest and said, "The last general will definitely take the enemy's stronghold and give the envoy a good shot!"

"Very good!" Chen Xu praised.

Chen Xu then ordered: "Du Chong."

Hearing this, Du Chong walked out of the queue and responded, "The last will be."

"Ben will appoint you as the governor of the camp."

The camp supervisor is just a temporary position in wartime, Chen Xu personally led the army to fight for the first time, there are still a lot of things to learn in the deployment of camps, it just so happens that Du Chong is the first recognized general in the Hujie army, and he has been a general for so long, he is more familiar with these marching and camping affairs, so he was ordered to take this position, brush up military merits, and win people's hearts.

"The end will live up to all the high hopes." Du Chong commanded.

"Where is Yuan Jizhong?" Chen Xu asked.

"The end will be." Yuan Jizhong was removed from the rear queue.

"Ben will appoint you as a platoon."

Yuan Jizhong was still very young, his face showed excitement, and he hugged his fists and said: "The last general will be ordered!"

The platoon envoy is also a temporary position, not a forbidden military position, appointed during the war, and removed after the war. Yuan Jizhong has been put under his command, of course Chen Xu has to give him the opportunity to perform meritorious service, otherwise what will he use to attract others, he is now cultivating his wings and team.

Of course, he didn't forget his two sworn brothers.

An order was immediately given to draw 300 soldiers from the various commands to form a personal guard to protect the personal safety of the commander. He Meng was ordered to be the guard general, and Suo Hu was the deputy general, taking turns to be on duty.

Of course, Chen Xu dispatched soldiers to form a pro-guard army, of course, not only to protect his safety, but at the right time, he could let He Meng and Suo Hu lead these three hundred soldiers to fight against the enemy.

People are a little selfish, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Chen Xu looked fair and just, and said solemnly: "Our early battle objectives have been deployed, and you don't have to worry about the battle being robbed by others, and there will be no battle later." According to the scouts, Shu has mobilized 20,000 horses in Qinfeng Prefecture, and everyone works together to make contributions. Your performance will also be remembered in mind, he will return to the court every day, and he will definitely take credit, and never miss it! ”

Of course, Chen Xu will not hide the omissions, he knows that if he wants the horses to run, he must feed the horses.

The generals bowed one after another.
