Chapter 69: Sending Troops

"General Wei Yan didn't know, the first two **** took the military division and caught a person outside Pujia Pass, and after detailed inquiry, I knew that this person was a scout sent by the enemy army in Hanzhong, who came here to monitor our army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" said General Ma Chao on the side.

"Strategist, we can send troops to capture the enemy scouts outside Pujia Pass, so that we can ensure that our army will not be detected by the enemy when they leave the pass." General Ma Chao continued.

Shi Yuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, just according to General Ma Chao's words." In addition, General Wei Yan and General Zhang Ren, you two led your soldiers to constantly sneak attack the enemy's camps and facilities in Hanzhong, but remember one thing, when encountering a large force of the enemy, try to dodge. Gong Heng, when the three generals go out, the defense and other matters in Pujia Pass will be handed over to you. ”

After receiving their orders, the generals went to their respective barracks to prepare for their departure. Three days later, Shi Yuan received a reply from General Ma Chao, saying that the scouts outside the pass had almost been all clear, and he came to ask when the military division would be able to leave the customs. In the next period of time, General Ma Chao would go out of the pass every once in a while, and every time he could gain something, it seemed that the enemy scouts outside the pass were indeed gone. The two generals Zhang Ren and Wei Yan also gained a lot during this period of time, and successively invaded many camps of the enemy army in Hanzhong, because the two generals have been taking the strategy of attacking and harassing, and the enemy army has nothing to do about it for the time being, so it is naturally itchy with anger.

Hanzhong Nanzheng, inside the hall.

"General Xiahou, Ma Chao is really too deceitful, most of the scouts we sent out to monitor Pujia Pass some time ago have been arrested, so that our army now knows nothing about the enemy's actions! We don't know when Ma Chao will leave the customs and where he will go, and when we get the news of Ma Chao, he has already returned to Pujia Pass. General Zhang Jaw said angrily at this time.

"General Zhangjaw, how could the scouts of our army be arrested by Ma Chao so easily, you must know that the scouts are all the elite of the army, and they are all very good at disguise, I have never heard of this kind of thing before!" General Xu Huang on the other side asked.

"Yes, I also felt very strange when I heard the news, and then I asked the scouts who came back from outside Pujia Pass, and I was also angry after knowing the specific reason. This scout told me that Ma Chao was outside Pujia Pass, and as soon as he saw someone, he asked people to say a few words, and you all know that the people of the Central Plains speak completely different from their Yizhou people, so naturally they will know whether this person is from Yizhou or Hanzhong when they hear it, and it is because almost all of the scouts of our army have been arrested, and these scouts who have fled back naturally cannot continue to be sent to Pujia Pass, otherwise they will definitely be arrested. General Zhang Jaw said.

This strategy to identify the enemy based on the voice of the speaker was naturally told by General Ma Chao of Shi Yuan, as a person who crossed over from the later generations, Shi Yuan must know the difference between the voice of the SC people and the people of the Central Plains. Sure enough, according to the strategy that Shi Yuan said, General Ma Chao captured almost all the enemy scouts outside Pujia Pass.

"General Zhangjaw, you have to find some local people as soon as possible, and then train these people to be scouts for our army, we must have some understanding of the enemy." Xiahou Yuan, who was in the center of the hall, said with doubts on his face at this time.

"Yes, General."

At this time, General Xu Huang on the side stood up, arched his hand towards General Xiahou Yuan, and said with an angry face:

"General Xiahou, in the recent period of time, the two generals Zhang Ren and Wei Yan in Pujia Pass have been leading soldiers to invade our army's camps and other facilities in Hanzhong, and after destroying some facilities, they left immediately, and each time they stayed for a short time, and when our army arrived, the people had already left, and our army just wanted to fight with the enemy and could not find anyone.

Moreover, when we first came to Hanzhong, many of the local people in Hanzhong did not want to see us, and our move to other places made the local people even more disgusted with us. We are now very unfamiliar with the roads in the mountains around Hanzhong, so we need to ask the local people, but there are many times when the local people tell us the wrong route, which is good, we were quite close to the enemy, but because of the wrong route guided, we are even farther away from the enemy, so we can't find the enemy at all.

General Xiahou, I implore the general to send troops to attack Pujia Pass, we must take the initiative to attack now, and we can't always be so passive and defensive. ”

General Zhang Jaw also hurriedly stood up at this time and said:

"I agree with General Xu Huang. Now General Ma Chao has frequently attacked and rescued many people, so if it continues, it will not only have an impact on the morale of our army, but also affect the plan of the lord to move out of Hanzhong, so for today's plan, we must send troops to attack Pujia Pass, and turn the passive into the active. ”

All the generals in the hall also echoed at this time. Xiahou Yuan in the center of the hall was also full of sorrow at this time, the lord left and took away all the strategists, and the rest were all some generals, these generals could still fight, but if it was much worse to make a plan, and the lord also said to himself when he left, he could not take the initiative to attack, but now all the generals suggested taking the initiative, and what he said was very reasonable, and Xiahou Yuan didn't know what to do for a while.

"What the generals said also has a certain amount of truth, but when the lord left, he said that our army should not take the initiative to attack, just need to defend Hanzhong." Xiahou Yuan said.

After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, the generals in the hall suddenly had no one to speak. The lord of his own house himself is very clear, since General Xiahou Yuan has moved out of the lord at this time, it is estimated that it is impossible to send troops to attack.

In the following period of time, the generals in the Pujia Pass went out more and more frequently, and the time they stayed outside the pass became longer and longer, and the damage caused to the enemy's various facilities was also increasing. However, General Ma Chao has not gained much in the recent period, not because General Ma Chao has not been out long enough and the number of times is not frequent enough, but because the enemy's team of people moving from inside and outside is getting smaller and smaller during this period of time, and it is difficult for General Ma Chao to find a team to escort the people at this time.

Xiahou Yuan has been annoyed by all kinds of bad news for a period of time, and yes, since Cao Cao left Hanzhong, Xiahou Yuan has not received a good news, the most important thing is that because Ma Chao's activities are very rampant during this period of time, the number of people who have moved out is getting smaller and smaller, and there are more and more troops willing to do this work.

One day a month after Cao Cao left Hanzhong, Xiahou Yuan gathered all the generals in Hanzhong and then issued an order to send troops.
