The Land of the Three Counties

"Yide is rude, and listen to the military teacher" Liu Bei gave Zhang Fei a roll of his eyes; And Zhang Fei pulled his face down when he saw Liu Bei speak, and retreated to his previous position, without the intention of quibbling.

Zhuge Liang also shook his head, although Zhang Fei already had the qualifications of a general, he was still as reckless as before.

"Since General Zhang is already in a hurry, let's make a long story short," Zhuge Liang said slowly, shaking the feather fan.

After that, he stood up and pointed to the map of Yongzhou that had just been erected by the soldiers with a feather fan: "Qishan is already the border of Han and Wei, and the spies of the Wei army must have detected our traces, but Cao Zhen has not yet received the news; After Qishan, Tianshui County and Nan'an County were placed in front of the army, but there were no high walls in Tianshui and Nan'an County; Once the news of our entry into Yongzhou comes out, Liangzhou will inevitably send reinforcements to fight our army, so we must take Tianshui and Nan'an again and capture Longxi County, so that Yongzhou and Liangzhou can not penetrate the throat, so that the Liangzhou iron cavalry can not penetrate Yongzhou, and we can continue to march to the east or west.

But once the news of our entry into Yongzhou spreads, Cao Zhen, the general of the Wei army, will inevitably march towards us with a large army; Cao Zhen entered the western part of Yongzhou from the east of Yongzhou and fought with our army, but there were only two ways, one was to take a boat to Yanwei River and go upstream, and the other was to go north through the Jieting and directly face our army.

However, Cao's army has many cavalry, and taking the Wei River will definitely drag down the speed of the army's march, so Cao Zhen must cross the street pavilion, and our army must protect the street pavilion; If Wei Yanqi, the governor of Pingbei, succeeded in attacking Chang'an, he would wave a large army to go down the Wei River and take the land of Guanzhong, and Yongzhou could be determined; If General Pingbei's surprise attack on Chang'an fails, our army will wave its army to the west to first attack Liangzhou to stabilize the rear, and then try to move the division eastward. Zhuge Liang pointed to the topographic map of Yongzhou hanging in the big tent and said.

At the mention of the surprise attack on Chang'an, many generals took a breath of cold air, after all, this matter can only be done to obey the destiny of heaven, but Wei Yan actually dared to do his best to attack the city, but this courage is beyond the reach of the generals in the account, as for the result, only time can be verified.

"Strategist, don't worry! If other people and I don't dare to guarantee it, if it is Bo Song, that kid will definitely be able to take Chang'an City" Zhang Fei couldn't help but stand up as soon as he heard the surprise attack on Chang'an, and didn't say a word to Wei Yan, maybe it was also due to Wei Yan's character.

As soon as Ma Chao heard 'Bo Song', his mind spun rapidly, and finally Zhuge Qiao's appearance appeared, but his eyes were as firmly supporting Zhuge Qiao as Zhang Fei, because it was Zhuge Qiao who originally brought him the hope that he could avenge the blood sea.

"Military division, the last general asks for orders to capture Longxi County and strangle the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry;" Yuan Lin, the former general and Du Tinghou, stood up with great ambition and asked for his life.

For Yuan Lin, Zhuge Liang has nothing to say, Yuan Lin's ability to make Liu Bei a former general is definitely not weak, and he is an old qualification who followed Liu Bei to fight the world earlier, and he can survive after half a lifetime of defeat, and his force will naturally not be weak.

Without thinking, "Yuan Lin listens to the order," Zhuge Liang shouted with an arrow in his hand.

"The last general," Yuan Lin knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"Let you lead 10,000 tiger infantry troops, 10,000 Ji Han troops, tomorrow out of the division, capture Longxi, and strictly guard the Liangzhou iron cavalry" Zhuge Liang said slowly, but the tone was extremely heavy, for the gate of Yongzhou, Zhuge Liang only put down 20,000 soldiers to guard Longxi.

"The last general commands" Yuan Lin stretched out his hand to take the arrow and retreated.

Seeing that Yuan Lin had already held the battle exploits in his hands, the other generals also began to commotion, and they seemed to be complaining that Yuan Lin was too fast, and even Zhang Fei was indignant, after all, he was the first to ask for the capture of Longxi.

"The military advisor is so unfair, obviously my old Zhang first proposed to attack Longxi, but in a blink of an eye, it was gone" Zhang Fei complained to Zhuge Liang.

"General Zhang, don't worry, as a general of the chariot cavalry, there are more important tasks behind you that you need to complete," Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said with a smile.

Zhang Fei's face, which was still depressed just now, suddenly turned into a smiling face, and smiled at Zhuge Liang, "I know that the military advisor will not forget my old Zhang."

"Military division, the last general was in the land of Yongliang in the first year, and he is quite familiar with the terrain in this area, and the last general is willing to lead the army to capture Tianshui and pave the way for the army" Ma Chao didn't hold back and stood up;

When Zhuge Liang saw Ma Chao stand up, he was also shocked in his heart, although he knew that Ma Chao was eager to make meritorious contributions, but it was not time to use it for him, "Meng Qi is not in a hurry, the little Tianshui County does not need Meng Qi to go, but there is still one thing at the moment, which needs to be prepared by Meng Qi, and this matter can only be completed by Meng Qi."

"Please also ask the military advisor to show me" Ma Chao saw that Zhuge Liang had no follow-up, and asked curiously.

"Let's talk about it later," Zhuge Liang said slowly, shaking the feather fan.

"No" Ma Chao hugged his fists, but he was even more curious about what tasks Zhuge Liang would arrange for him to perform.

"The last general of the military division will ask for orders, and leading 5,000 sergeants will inevitably take Nan'an County" After Zhang Fei and Ma Chao failed to ask for orders in the same order, General Hou and Anle Hou Wu Ban stood up and continued to ask for orders.

Zhuge Liang saw that it was Wu Ban, Wu Ban was notoriously bold and narrow-minded, and he also participated in the battle of Wu, and he was also quite prestigious in the army, and Wu Ban only needed 5,000 soldiers to capture Nan'an City, which is also in line with the current strength of Shu Han.

"If Nan'an is too guarded to defend the city, how should you break it" Zhuge Liang asked keenly, although Nan'an County is small, it is also a border county, plus the county soldiers in this county have about more than 3,000 soldiers, once the city is defended, it is difficult to capture it with only 5,000 soldiers.

Wu Ban didn't think about it, and said casually, "If Nan'an is too guarded to gather in the city, I will surround the three and lack one; Nan'an Zhidao County is only one day's trip from Xiangwu County, Longxi Zhizhi, and it is possible to borrow troops from the former general to break Nan'an. ”

Zhuge Liang nodded, and Wu Ban's explanation obviously relieved him.

"Wu Ban listens to the order," Zhuge Liang shouted.

"The last general," Wu Ban replied with a serious face.

"Let you lead 5,000 tiger infantry troops, set out tomorrow, and capture Nan'an, there must be no mistake" Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice.

"The last general commands" Wu Ban stretched out his hand to take the arrow.

In the land of the three counties, Longxi and Nan'an have already sent generals to capture them, but Zhuge Liang of the remaining Tianshui County does not plan to send any more troops. Because the Yixian County of Tianshui County is next to the Wei River, and the fastest route for the army to advance eastward is down the Wei River, so Liu Bei has already instructed Zhuge Liang that he will personally lead the army to capture Tianshui County, and then wait for the news of Chang'an City in Yixian County.

It's just a street pavilion where soldiers must fight, but Zhuge Liang can't get an idea for a while; The street pavilion is the main road to clear the customs, Longyou and Bashu. It is located in the west of the Qinling Mountains, fifty miles east of Tianshui County, and is the throat of Hanzhong. Although the street pavilion is small, it is very related, but there is no city outline, and there is no danger.
