Chapter 0063: On the Eve of the Great War
Liu Chan and Zhang Bao Guan Ping had already slowly slid down the rope to descend Yanshan, while Du Jie and Wei Yan's five hundred personal soldiers were now gathering under the waterhole.
At the same time, the current Su Tianpeng received Liu Chan's order and had hurried towards the Hanzhong Pass.
At this time, it was noon, but there was no lazy appearance on the tower of Hanzhong Pass, and a team of soldiers were patrolling back and forth, and there were sentry posts less than five meters next to them, and the soldiers were all waiting for them.
"Stand! What are you doing! Su Tianpeng was stopped by a team of soldiers just before he came to the pass.
Su Tianpeng took out the palace card given to him by Liu Chan from his waist, handed it over and said, "I want to see General Wei Yan!" ”
The soldier took Su Tianpeng's palace card, although he didn't know the identity represented by this palace card, but looking at the palace card with the word "Han" written on it, he naturally knew that it must be extraordinary, because it was impossible for anyone to dare to write the country name casually on the palace card.
"You wait here." The soldier relieved himself and hurriedly took the palace card and walked towards the gate.
Downstairs is the military camp, and at this time, Wei Yan is in the temporary tent set up in the military camp, staring heavily at a map of the entire Hanzhong Pass defensive fortifications in front of him.
At this time, the guard holding the Liu Chan Palace card hurriedly ran in.
"General, someone took this and said they wanted to see you." The guard said and presented the palace card.
Wei Yan looked at the palace card handed by the guard, and exhaled slowly in his heart. Since I saw Liu Chan's palace card, it means that Liu Chan is fine.
"Let him in." Wei Yan clutched the palace card tightly and hurriedly commanded.
After a while, Su Tianpeng ran in under the leadership of the guards.
Seeing that Su Tianpeng came alone, Wei Yan frowned, he thought that Liu Chan had come to find him in person, but he didn't expect that only Su Tianpeng came alone.
"Let's all go down first." After Wei Yan gave orders to the guards, the guards slowly retreated, and now only Wei Yan and Su Tianpeng were left in the tent.
"The grass people meet General Wei Yan."
"No need to be polite, Childe, is he okay?" Wei Yan waved his hand and asked with concern.
Su Tianpeng got up and hurriedly said, "Childe is fine, he asked me to give you a message." ”
"Message?" Wei Yan looked at Su Tianpeng with a question on his face, "What message?" ”
"Childe said to let the general engage the Wei army as soon as possible!"
"What!" Wei Yan looked at Su Tianpeng in disbelief, now he was thinking about avoiding this war as much as possible, but Liu Chan asked him to fight as soon as possible, and Wei Yan was a little at a loss for a while.
"Yes, Gongzi did say so, and he has now descended from the foot of Luoyan Mountain to the bottom of the mountain stream, because below is the granary of the Wei army!"
Wei Yan's eyes flashed, his breathing was a little short, and he stared at Su Tianpeng in a daze: "The granary of the Wei army is just below the mountain stream of Luoyan Mountain?" ”
"Gongzi said so, and he also said that when we are engaged in a war with the Wei army, he will take your five hundred personal soldiers to personally attack the granary of the Wei army." Su Tianpeng didn't dare to hide it, and told Wei Yan everything he knew.
After taking Su Tianpeng to speak, Wei Yan stared at the map in front of him silently with his hands behind his back, and muttered to himself: "He actually went in person, but if he really makes a mistake, then how can I explain to the first emperor and everyone at that time!" ”
Wei Yan thought that Liu Chan himself actually led his troops to attack the granary, and he also had to cooperate with himself, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Is Gongzi going now?" Can you call him back again? ”
"This" Su Tianpeng hesitated for a moment, "When I left, Gongzi and Guan Ping and Zhang Bao had already gone down again, if I look for them again, I will not run down in person." ”
Wei Yan didn't know what to do for a while, looking at the palace card in his hand, he still didn't dare to make a decision, he felt that it was better to call Liu Chan back after all, he didn't want Liu Chan to take this risk.
Thinking of this, Wei Yan sighed, waved his hand and said: "I'm afraid I can't agree to Gongzi's request, let's still focus on defense, we must not take it lightly, Brother Tianpeng, please go again, call Gongzi and them back!" ”
Su Tianpeng also thought that the sneak attack on the granary now was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but General Wei Yan, who had heard that he was decisive and neat, hesitated in front of this excellent opportunity, and he couldn't figure it out for a while, but Wei Yan said this, he didn't want to say anything, as long as he responded.
"Then I'll go and get the sons and them back, and don't let them act rashly." Su Tianpeng saluted Wei Yan and planned to retreat.
Before Su Tianpeng could leave the camp, he suddenly remembered the rapid sound of war drums outside.
The sound of the drums was so rapid and earth-shattering that even Su Tianpeng couldn't help but be startled, while Wei Yan only frowned.
"Slow!" Wei Yan frowned and drank Su Tianpeng, who was about to go back, calmed down, sighed again, and said: "Now that the Wei army is about to attack, just do what Gongzi said!" ”
After Wei Yan finished speaking, he directly put on his battle robe and walked towards the Guan Tower.
The reason why Wei Yan said that he has changed his mind now is because the Wei army suddenly attacked, so the flaw in the sneak attack on the granary was still relatively small, if he wanted to take the initiative to attack now, but the side that was supposed to defend suddenly attacked, the Wei army would definitely hesitate, and now the Wei army took the initiative to attack and definitely dispelled this hesitation.
The second point is that he has confidence in Liu Chan, from meeting Liu Chan to the present, Liu Chan, who has only heard of the young prince before, has now been surprised by the emperor of the Han State more and more, and he is more and more Liu Chan is full of hope, this instinctive thing is something that he slowly changed after seeing Liu Chan, even Wei Yan himself didn't know that he had begun to trust Liu Chan.
Accompanied by the sound of compact war drums, not only Wei Yan, but also a pair of soldiers climbed to the gate tower at the same time, looking at the Wei army outside the pass.
Due to the relatively high level of the Guan Tower, the Wei army in front of the black pressure of the whole body black armor lined up in a group of military formations, in the eyes of the Han army on the Guan Tower, it looks like a piece of black cloth, but this black cloth is too big, and it can't be seen at a glance, and it is slowly surging towards the pass.
And in the rear of the Wei army stood a team of iron horsemen, the fat war horses neighed with the sound of war drums, especially the black war horse in the middle was even more arrogant, four hooves on the ground, bowing their heads and neighing.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a person sitting on it, I am afraid that this horse would have rushed to the battlefield with the roaring war drums.
The person sitting on the horse was also dressed in pitch-black armor, about forty years old, his face was a little thin, but his deep eyes looked at Hanzhong Pass in front of him, but he was not as contemptuous and disdainful as the soldiers on the horse next to him, but his face was calm, this person was Zhang He, the commander of this attack on Hanzhong Pass.
"Attack!"
After Zhang He lightly spit out these two words, he still calmly stared at Hanzhong Pass in front of him.
"Yes!"
The two soldiers on horseback next to him answered, and directly followed the sound of the drum to lead the horse to the direction of Hanzhong Pass, and the Wei army next to him also shouted a low slogan with the two soldiers on horseback, and marched neatly to Hanzhong Pass.
