When Hu Du saw Ma Hong say this, he already understood what Ma Hong was going to do, so he walked quickly to Ma Hong's horse and took out a map from the belt on the horse's body—a detailed map of the terrain of Xichuan drawn by Zhang Song.

Hu Du picked up the map, nodded to Ma Yan, and the two opened the drawing, a detailed map of the terrain of Xichuan, and the military defense mark in the map was very clear. Wei Yan understood what Ma Hong meant, bent down and looked at the military layout map carefully, looking at the beads of sweat on his forehead, for a long time, Wei Yan was covered in sweat, like rain.

"Lord, Wei Yan is wrong, please punish the lord."

Wei Yan knelt down on one knee and said.

Ma Hong helped Wei Yan with both hands, then patted Wei Yan's shoulder and waved at the fox. Hu Du and Ma Jian immediately put away the drawings.

"But this Chengdu is a three-story city, and there are so many checkpoints and military deployments along the road, my trick won't work."

"Actually, Senior Brother Liu Ye and I have also thought about your trick, but when we saw this picture, we dispelled the idea."

Ma Hong said because he was afraid of Wei Yan's feelings, and he didn't want Wei Yan to be too uncomfortable, but in fact, he and Liu Ye had never made such a move. He and Liu Ye's original plan was to take Brazil County, take Badong County, and then march from Lintong to harass and encroach on Yizhou, but they didn't want to ascend to the sky in one step.

"Teacher, what should I do next?" Hu Du is a smart person, he knows what to do now, and if he asks Ma Hong what to do, he can not only alleviate Wei Yan's embarrassment if he proposes it now, but also set a strategy for the future.

Ma Hong pulled out his sword and pointed at Dianjiang, and said in a straight voice: "Take Dianjiang, prepare fire, trebuchet!" ”

"No!" Fox said.

"Ma Yan." Ma Hong Road.

"The last general!"

"Urge the craftsmen to build 100 small boats, once the Dianjiang River is taken, I will send an army along the confluence of the three rivers to Ba County, these three rivers are one, and then we will divide the army into three roads and point directly to Jiangzhou."

"No!" Ma Tan said.

"Wei Yan."

"The end will be." Wei Yanzheng said.

"Break through Dianjiang City!"

"Wei Yan takes the order!"

Wu Yi led the army to the vicinity of the Dianjiang River, ordered Zhang Ren to guard the Dianjiang River, Liu Xuan led the army to garrison Deyang, Deng Xian led the army to the west of the Hanshui to prevent Ma Hong's army from crossing the Hanshui, Ling Bao and Liu Xun led the army to garrison the east of the Qujiang River, Wu Yi led the main force, with Huang Quan as the military division to garrison the mouth of the three rivers after the Dianjiang River, and assisted all parties at any time. Wu Yi's cloth army was arranged in the shape of three rivers and rivers, like a sleeve, waiting for Ma Hong to attack, and when the time came, Ma Hong was trapped. [The four generals of Xichuan, Zhang Ren, Liu Xuan, Deng Xian, and Ling Bao appeared at the same time. 】

Ba County Taishou Yan Yan gathered his soldiers and went to Padang County to help defend the city.

Because the gate of the Dianjiang city is directly facing the confluence of the three rivers, the moat is extremely wide, and it is necessary to row a boat on the opposite bank to enter the city in order to enter the city, and the width of the river exceeds the range of the trebuchet. Wei Yan ordered the soldiers to dig up the soil and fill the water, but due to the rapid water of the river, the plan did not work, so in exchange for the plan, Ma Hong ordered the soldiers to take the raw materials used to make cement from the nearby mountains, and began to make cement on the river bank for days, wrapped in cloth bags.

Dianjiang, Zhang Ren stood on the city tower, watching Ma Hongjun busy on the opposite side of the riverbank, not knowing his intentions, beating drums and shouting on the city tower every day, making the soldiers shout and scold Ma Hongjun. I saw that Zhang Ren's back was straight, and his figure as beautiful as a poplar tree contained huge tenacious strength, with sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a nose and thin lips, and an obvious furrow in the middle of his chin.

Ma Hong ordered the soldiers to cut down the trees, then use the trunks as stakes, drive them into the water, and make two rows, one stake every two feet, and then throw the cement and sand wrapped in cloth bags between the stumps, the cement absorbs the water and swells, and in less than three days, the army built three roads between the rivers that are five meters wide and 15 meters long.

"General, do they want to build this road straight to our city gate?"

"How is that possible? Although his method is good, it is just that the river is deep, and the current in the middle is turbulent, and the wooden stakes will be washed away by the water if they are repaired. Zhang Ren replied.

So what's the point of them doing that? It doesn't make any sense, so why fix it? ”

Zhang Ren shook his head and said, "Let's take a look for the time being." ”

On the second day, Ma Hongjun continued to make cement and cut down trees to make pile foundations.

On the third day, Ma Hongjun continued to build the road.

On the fourth day, Ma Hongjun continued to make cement.

Until the seventh day, Zhang Ren looked at the water in the moat, and suddenly said in surprise: "It's not good, two of these three rivers come down from the direction of Brazil County, and they must have cut off two of the rivers, so the water in this moat has become less." ”

"General, how do you deal with that?" The adjutant asked.

"This Ma Hong really lives up to its name, it must be cut off the river, but it is not completely broken, put some water every day, so that we can't see the changes in this moat." Zhang Ren said.

"If it breaks all the rivers, the moat will not be dry."

"If they don't pave the road, even if there is less water in the river, there will be a lot of sludge at the bottom of the river, and they will have to wait for the sludge to dry before they can enter." Zhang Ren slammed towards the city wall.

"So what to do? Checkmate! The adjutant said.

Zhang Ren snorted and said, "You sent scouts to find out where they cut off the water source. ”

"No!"

"Then tell Ling Bao and Gongzi that they should lead the army to dig up the river at night, and then the blocked water will wash away the road they paved."

"The general is wise."

At night, Ma Hong now eats the rice bowl he made, making rice bowls in the barracks, a small fried pork rice bowl, which is okay and tastes okay. Ma Tan and Hu Du sat in a circle with Ma Hong, each with a small fried pork rice bowl in front of them.

When eating rice bowls, do you eat the vegetables or rice first, or do you take a bite of rice and add another bite before the rice is swallowed?

The way to eat Ma Tan is to eat a bite of rice first, and then a bite of food.

The way to eat it is to mix the food together and put it in the mouth with a spoon.

"Is the meat good?"

Ma Hong said to Hu Du and Ma Yan.

"It's delicious, and the teacher's craftsmanship is very good." Fox Du praised.

"Where's the rice? Is it tasty? ”

"It's delicious." The two said in unison.

Ma Hong smiled slightly and said: "If you only eat rice and don't eat vegetables, or only eat vegetables and don't eat rice, is it so delicious?" ”

The two thought for a moment and said, "It's not so delicious." ”

Ma Hong smiled and said: "Now this mat Jiangcheng is rice, and eating it can fill your stomach, and Zhang Ren is this appetizer." ”

"Does the teacher mean to eat the vegetables first?" Fox said.

Ma Hong put down his chopsticks. He rubbed his stomach and said, "I'm full." ”

Qujiang, Wakou, this is Ma Hongren made a retaining wall to cut off the water of Qujiang.

At night, Ling Bao led an army to sneak into Wakou, Brazil County, intending to break the wall and release water, and suddenly saw the torches in the woods above Wakou, Wei Yan led a Biao army out, followed by the sound of running water. Wei Yan ordered the soldiers in ambush to break through the retaining wall, and the river water that spewed out rushed towards the Lingbao army like thousands of galloping wild horses. It turned out that Ma Hong ordered the soldiers to change the direction of the water flow and store a large amount of river water, and once they found that the enemy army was coming to destroy the retaining wall, they would attack the enemy army with water.
