Cao Peng's senses for Meng Da have always been not very good. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
What to say about this person?
The rat's head is capricious. Maybe he does have some ability, but in comparison, his character is too poor. In history, he first opposed Liu Zhang, then Liu Bei, and finally Cao Wei, but was killed by Sima Yi. And in this time and space, Meng Da's performance also made Cao Peng feel dissatisfied.
After Liu Zhang's death, Shi Tao discussed with him and asked Meng Da to give up Baishui Pass.
But Meng Da didn't know what the consideration was at that time, so he rejected Shi Tao's proposal and delayed it with 'not yet the time'.
In general, Cao Peng can understand Meng Da's thoughts.
It's just that he wants to get greater benefits, so he refuses to get things up.
But if he had an incident at that time, Shi Tao could take the opportunity to occupy Baishui Pass and set up a fulcrum for Cao Peng's expedition to Xichuan.
But Munda didn't do that......
Now, Zhuge Liang personally sits in Jiameng Pass, and I am afraid that this Baishui Pass will inevitably have a vicious battle.
"Filial piety, this is not your fault, Shizi does not know the sky, but he missed the opportunity, so he is in danger today.
Once Kong Ming arrives at Jiameng Pass, he will definitely attack Zidu.
Even if you and I send troops, we won't be able to save the fire...... Now the only way to do this is to complete the reorganization of the troops and horses as soon as possible, and he will capture Xichuan one day, kill Zhuge Kongming, and avenge Zidu. Don't be too sad for you, I've asked Guangyuan to try to remind Zidu...... If Zidu is smart, there is no chance of life. ”
Fa Zheng also knew that there was no other choice at this time.
It's just that when I thought that Meng Da would encounter danger, I was in a trance after all.
He had a very good relationship with Munda . When they defected to Liu Zhang from Guanzhong together, if it weren't for Meng Da's care, they would have starved to death this morning. Fa Zheng also knew that there were some problems with Meng Da's character, so when he learned that Meng Da refused to let go of Baishui Pass, he was also very angry, and he couldn't wait to appear in front of Meng Da immediately and persuade Meng Da to cause trouble. However, due to various reasons, Fa Zheng was unable to get in touch with Meng Da.
I hope that Zidu can get through this hurdle.
So far, Fa Zheng doesn't have much to do, because Meng Da's life is now in Zhuge Liang's hands.
He can only hope that Zhuge Liang did not find the flaw too quickly, so there is still room for redemption.
But once Zhuge Liang sensed Meng Da's movements......
Fa Zheng didn't dare to think about it further!
The northwest has changed a lot.
When Cao Peng left two years ago, I couldn't help but be the environment, and the most important thing was the change of personnel.
Chen Qun is still the captain of the school, and there is no change. But Guanzhong Jing Zhaoyin has become Xu Shu.
Zhang Liao took over the five armies and protected the government, making the governor of Youzhou vacant.
Cao Chun represented Zhang Liao and was in charge of the governor of Youzhou. The original Jingzhao Yin Xu Huang returned to Yedu and was appointed separately.
As a result, Longxi is too vacant.
Meng Jian took over the position of Xu Shu and temporarily led Longxi Taishou.
However, this is only a transitional position, mainly arranged to cooperate with Cao Peng's expedition to Yizhou.
After the Battle of Yizhou was over, Meng Jian would serve as the Taishou of Goguryeo County and garrison the domestic city.
Long before Cao Peng became the general of the expedition to the west, Cao Cao had already explained it clearly, and Meng Jian had no opinion on this.
Cao Xiu, now the Taishou of Jincheng, plus the governor of the west, and the commander-in-chief of Qiangqi affairs.
Cao Cao intends to set up a Daxing Mansion in Jincheng this year, and the capital is Qiang. And the candidate for the governor of the Jincheng Mansion is Cao Xiu. The reason why no arrangements have been made is more out of consideration for the war in Yizhou.
There are many personnel changes like this, such as Su Ze's transfer to Yedu, as the Taishou of Wei County, and the captain of Yecheng......
In two years, the entire Liangzhou has changed so much that Cao Peng is also a little dizzy.
Fortunately, his foundation is still there, and he doesn't need to worry too much.
On the second day of Cao Peng's arrival in Lintao, Wudu guarded Jia Xing too much. There are also Hao Zhao, the southern governor, and Zhang He, the deputy lieutenant general of the army, who came to report to Cao Peng. After some discussion, Cao Peng took Zhang He and Hao Zhao as the vanguard, each led 30,000 horses, divided the troops into two routes, and stationed in Hanzhong. Cao Peng personally led 40,000 soldiers as the Chinese army, and after converging the 3,000 Wudang Fei troops of Shamoke Wang Ping's department who rushed from Wuling, he advanced to Hanzhong. In addition, there are still 50,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Wudu to ensure the smooth flow of grain roads.
After everything was arranged, Cao's army officially started and marched towards Hanzhong.
On February 2, the 17th year of Shi Jian'an, on the same day that Cao's army was launched, Shitao, the Taishou of Hanzhong, received a letter from Mengda in Baishuiguan.
Meng Da agreed, gave up Baishui Pass, and officially surrendered to Cao Cao.
As soon as the news came, Shi Tao was very excited.
He quickly ordered Xu Yi to open from Chuyang and go to Baishui Pass to hand over.
But they didn't want to, when Dian Wei and Xu Yi arrived at Baishui Pass, they were ambushed by the Shu army. Dian Wei Xu Yi fought desperately, and finally broke out of the encirclement from the chaotic army and walked away in embarrassment. The Shu army immediately laid a defensive line at Baishui Pass and waited for the Cao army to come. The atmosphere of the war is getting stronger and stronger, as if it is about to break out.
"The Mengda dog thief is capricious, and he is tired of the defeat of General Dian and General Xu."
By the time Cao Peng arrived in Nanzheng, Cao's army had already stabilized its position.
In the first battle of Baishui Pass, although Cao's army suffered heavy losses, it was not fundamentally injured. After the defeat of Xu Yi in Chuyang, he prepared his army and horses and held out. Shi Tao took the blame and reported the battle situation to Cao Peng.
Cao Peng and Fa Zheng glanced at each other and sighed in unison.
"I'm afraid that this battle is not Meng Da's repetition, but a plan set up by Zhuge Liang.
At this time, Meng Da was afraid that he would become a prisoner, and he might even be killed by Zhuge Liang...... It's a pity that Zidu didn't make a decision early, and he was so tired that he was in a different place. Guangyuan, this battle is not your fault, it is indeed my negligence! ”
Munda must have been slain.
Even if he is not dead, I am afraid that he will be a prisoner, and he will not escape death sooner or later.
Cao Peng couldn't help frowning and fell into deep thought.
After a short period of distraction, Fa Zheng immediately returned to normal, suppressed the sorrow in his heart, and carefully inquired about the battle situation ahead.
"You mean, Zhuge Liang's soldiers and horses are invulnerable?"
If there is a different person, he will be suspected of bad intentions and deliberately spread rumors to shake the morale of the army.
But Shi Tao is different, although he is not the first person to follow Cao Peng, he is a veteran staff member under Cao Peng. Shi Tao's loyalty to Cao Peng does not need to be repeated. Moreover, Fa Zheng has also had contact with Shi Tao, and he also knows Shi Tao very well. This is a sincere person, one thing and one thing, and he will never be untargeted......
But in this world, how can anyone be invulnerable?
Shi Tao said: "General Yuande sent someone to report that the Shu army was strangely equipped, invulnerable, and difficult to resist.
With the ability of General Yuande, it is quite difficult to kill the opponent.
Moreover, these people are good at using short crossbows and poisonous arrows, walking like flying, and they are extremely difficult to deal with. General Xu also sent someone to say that the other party could cross the white water without borrowing the power of the boat, which was very strange, and asked the general to decide. ”
Short crossbow poison arrows?
Fa Zheng blurted out: "Isn't it a barbarian soldier in Nanzhong? ”
And Cao Peng raised his head and looked at Shi Tao, as if he was talking to himself: "Vine armor soldiers? Could it be that there are really rattan armor soldiers in this world? ”
Although it has been a long time, the memory is very deep.
Cao Peng still remembers that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Zhuge Liang captured Meng Shu seven times, Meng Huo invited the vulture bone, the lord of the Ugo Kingdom, to lead the vine armor soldiers to participate in the battle, causing huge casualties to the Shu army. In the end, it was Zhuge Liang who used the technique of fire attack to eliminate the other party, and only then did he achieve the eternal story of seven captures of Meng Shu. However, in the official history, there is no record of the rattan armor soldiers. So when Shi Tao told about the battle, Cao Peng didn't think about it at first...... But what Shi Tao said was clearly the appearance of a rattan armor soldier.
And the barbarian soldiers in Nanzhong mentioned by Fa Zheng confirmed Cao Peng's idea.
Could it be that it's really a vine armor soldier?
Fa Zheng has lived in Yizhou for a while, so he also has some understanding of the barbarians in Nanzhong.
When he first heard Cao Pengyan's words 'rattan armor soldier', Fa Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and said: "The three words rattan armor soldier are also appropriate." When I was in Yizhou, I heard people say that Nanzhong is a kind of wild vine that is extremely tough after a hundred years of growth. There are local people who pick wild rattan to support the armor, and use special means to make it, and the armor is light and strong, good at preventing arrows, and can be stabbed by knives and guns, and it does not sink when it encounters water.
But I've only heard about it, and I've never seen it.
According to Guangyuan, its combat method must be from the barbarians in Nanzhong.
Could it be that Liu Bei has been in Nanzhong for two years, and he actually found this barbarian? If so, it's troublesome! ”
Cao Peng heard this, but smiled slightly.
"Don't worry about the rattan armor soldiers, I have my own way to break them.
The key is that Zhuge Liang will send troops to Jiameng Pass this time and invite the barbarians from Nanzhong, which will indeed cause a lot of trouble.
Guangyuan, you immediately send someone to Chuyang, tell my two brothers, and ask them to hold on and wait for me to watch the battle. Also, be sure to inquire clearly, the situation of Zhuge Liang's barbarian army...... I don't want to have a situation like the vine armor soldier when I fight him, so it's the right way to prepare early. ”
Cao Peng remembered that when Zhuge Liang attacked Nanzhong, he encountered a lot of trouble.
Of course, this time Cao Peng doesn't have to worry about encountering the extremely special terrain and landforms of Nanzhong, but some necessary understanding still needs to be detective. For example, in this barbarian army, is there any elephant soldier in the battle?
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.
Cao Peng is facing Zhuge Liang this time, Zhuge Kongming, who is known as the demon by the world two thousand years later.
Although he knew that Kong Ming in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was exaggerated.
But when it comes to fighting with it, Cao Peng is still very careful.
Fa Zheng couldn't help but say: "But in this way, the progress of the army will inevitably slow down." ”
Cao Peng laughed, "Zhuge Liang thought I was in a hurry to march, so he sent heavy troops to Jiameng Pass, and personally supervised the battle." Actually, I'm not in a hurry at all. Before I left Goguryeo, someone told me that when the water is full, it overflows, and it is too much. He also told me that if the fighting in Yizhou broke out, there was no need to push too fast. At the very least, I can't be the first to enter Chengdu...... So, I don't mind, under this Jia Meng Pass, I have a round of dealing with Zhuge Kongming. Pass my order, Zhang He of the left army, Hao Zhao of the right army, stand by and not act rashly. Ordered Huang Zhong to be the vanguard, Guo Huai to join the army, set off first, and rushed to Weiyang.
I then went to oversee the army in person, and I was about to meet for a while, what is the power of the legendary barbarian soldiers in the south. ”

Recently, my life has been chaotic, my work and rest have been chaotic, and my thinking has been chaotic......
