Chapter 112: Plans can't keep up with changes

"Bo Yan, General Zhao has a letter, he has occupied Jiangyou, cut off the grain route of the Yizhou army, and wants us to move to Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass, and take these two passes!" In the Hanzhong army camp under Langzhong City, Zhu Ran took the flying pigeon book he had just received, and said to Lu Xun excitedly.

"Great, everything is going well with General Zhao, it seems that we can act according to the plan and go to capture Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass!" Hearing this, Chen Shi, He Qi and the others were all elated. Lu Xun was about to speak, and it happened that there was a report from Tanmalai at this time.

"What, what about the reinforcement of the defenders in Langzhong?" Lu Xun was also taken aback when he heard this, but he heard this person say in detail: "The villain has found out clearly, and it was said that Zhang Ren sent the general Wu Ban to lead an army of 20,000 to reinforce Langzhong, and now it is in Langzhong!" ”

"You go down first!" Lu Xun waved his hand to signal this person to go down, and the atmosphere in the barracks was a little dull. Originally, there were almost 20,000 defenders in Langzhong, but now there are 20,000 additional troops, and the enemy army wants to take the opportunity to break through their own group first. Once he divides his troops to take Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass according to the previous plan, then there are only 20,000 people left in the big battalion, and in the face of Yan Yan, who may come at any time, he will be quite passive. But once he didn't deal with Zhao Feng, then the 10,000 people he broke into Xichuan would become a complete lone army. Unless it is a big explosion of character, it is definitely a fool's dream to take down Xichuan by relying on this person.

After being silent for a long time, He Qi finally spoke: "Now that the enemy has increased its troops, I think it is safe to withdraw the troops and retreat to Nanjiang City first, and then follow the plan to respond to General Zhao to take Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass." Otherwise, the army will stay here, and once it is entangled by Yan Yan and cannot get out, it will be passive. "This plan is relatively stable, and everyone thinks it is safer.

"Although some people are not heart-wrenching, I still want to break through Yan Yan's army in one fell swoop!" Lu Xun was silent for a long time and then said in an astonishing manner, ignoring the stunned faces of everyone, Lu Xun said again: "Gong Miao, Yifeng, you each lead 10,000 horses to assist General Zhao in attacking Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass, and I will stay here to deal with Yan Yan!" ”

"Bo Yan, don't be reckless, as soon as we leave, you will only have less than 20,000 horses here. With such a few people, how can you be able to defeat Yan Yan? He Qi was extremely unimpressed by Lu Xun's proposal, and hurriedly persuaded him not to take too risks. Not only He Qi, but even Zhu Ran and Chen Shi felt that Lu Xun's proposal was too risky, and they used less than 20,000 troops to deal with the nearly 40,000 defenders in the fortified city, and this battle had no need to fight.

"Gong Miao, I have my own measure. At present, it is imperative to deal with General Zhao, you two will lead the army to Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass first, and I will stay here to deal with Yan Yan! Lu Xun said in a deep voice. He Qi and Zhu Ran glanced at each other, and were about to persuade again. Lu Xun said again: "Before General Zhao leaves, he will hand over the army to me, and all affairs will be decided by me, so you can do your own thing!" After finishing speaking, his left hand was pressed on the sword mark on the handsome case, intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing him talking like this, He Qi and Zhu Ran couldn't persuade him anymore, so they immediately lit their military horses and went to Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass.

"Gong Miao, Bo Yan is young and vigorous, he is too underestimated to be the enemy, if more than 10,000 people are here, he will suffer heavy losses!" After Zhu Ran walked out of the military tent, he also sighed.

"Now, we can only wait and see what happens. As long as I wait for the morning to take Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass, the Sichuan army will be frightened, and Bo Yan will be able to turn the crisis into safety here! He Qi comforted, and after the two divided their troops, they each led their men and horses to the two passes.

"Old general, the Hanzhong army has withdrawn two roads of men and horses today, and now the army is already understaffed, should I take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing?" In Langzhong City, Wu Ban asked the veteran Yan Yan.

"First send someone to find out the truth of the Hanzhong army, maybe this is Zhao Botao's plan to lure the enemy!" Yan Yan said in a deep voice, and then sent spies to investigate the reality of the Hanzhong Army in many ways.

"General Lu, do we want to put up more banners to confuse the enemy army?" As soon as He Qi and Zhu Ran left, Chen Shi was left to discuss the military situation with Lu Xun. In his opinion, now that his own troops are short and there is no danger to defend, he can only bluff and fool the enemy army, and try to drag it out until Zhao Feng and them capture Xichuan, which is already a success. It must be said that on the premise of not directly withdrawing troops, Chen's strategy is relatively steady.

"Captain Chen, in your opinion, should we withdraw our troops?" Lu Xun did not answer Chen's question, but asked him another question.

"You should be!" Chen Shi didn't want to directly affirm Lu Xun's proposal. As soon as the words came out, I felt very strange, why Lu Xun remembered to withdraw the army. After thinking about it, could it be that he was embarrassed to give in in front of Zhu Ran and other acquaintances before, and when they left, he pulled down his face and withdrew the army. Thinking of this, Chen Shi also despised Lu Xun a little.

"It stands to reason that we should withdraw our troops. But once we withdraw our troops, Yan Yan will take advantage of the situation to chase and kill. He now has sufficient troops, and it is not appropriate for us to withdraw to Padang or Hanzhong. Therefore, I think that I will lead the army south along the pad river and go to Deyang! Lu Xun pointed to the map.

"Deyang?" Chen Shi felt that this decision was a bit too unbelievable, Deyang had just been captured by Zhang Fei, what did he do there? However, there is a way to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and if you can join Zhang Fei with this little bit of people, it will be much safer.

"We are currently short of troops, and if we want to break through the strict face, we need to rely on external forces. The so-called external force is nothing more than ruthless fire and water. I want to make this pad river the burial place of the Sichuan army! Lu Xun said word by word, while ordering people to act separately, he ordered to strictly guard Dazhai and beware of Yan Yan's attack.

Zhao Feng naturally didn't know all this in Langzhong. Now he has just used Lai Min and the unconscious Yang Huai to take down Fushui Pass. Entering this precipitous city, Zhao Feng was also secretly happy. In history, Liu Bei captured Fushui Pass very easily, purely because Yang Huai and Gao Pei wanted to plot against him, but after being recognized by Pang Tong, the two were captured in one fell swoop, and then Liu Bei took Fushui Pass without blood. Now although he doesn't have the character of Liu Bei to the extreme, he actually won this dangerous pass by relying on Laimin's fraudulent city.

Looking at Lai Min in front of him, Zhao Feng also had to sigh that he could leave a name in history, and he was by no means an ordinary figure. When the right person was in the city, Lai Min was not nervous, and all the questions and answers were in accordance with the agreed dupon. Although Gao Pei's IQ is not necessarily too high, it is indeed not easy to be able to act to this point. However, this Xichuan people seem to surrender a little too easily, if Meng Da of the Dongzhou faction surrenders easily, it is understandable, and now that Lai Min is a local, he has thrown himself into the role of a traitor so quickly, which makes people have to despise their loyalty.

However, when Liu Chan surrendered in history, there were still 30,000 troops in the city, which was not so much defeated by Deng Ai as self-destruction. The current Liu Zhang, this should be the case. Zhao Feng thought vaguely in his mind, and it wasn't until Yang Ren and Lai Min walked in that he came back to his senses.

"General, Gao Pei was besieged and killed by me and Zijun, and in addition to more than 4,000 surrendered troops, now we can have a little more troops!" Yang Ren said with some excitement. No matter how Zhao Feng smuggled into the city, he couldn't scatter beans into soldiers, although the combat effectiveness of these Sichuan troops was far inferior to the Hanzhong army, but now it would be good to have more help.

"In addition, dozens of grain and grass carts have just been found in Fushui Pass, and according to the confession of the descendant, they are to be transported to Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass." Lai Min said again at this time. Zhao Feng thought about it and called Wang Ping to give a few orders, and the latter left with a strange face after listening to the order.

"Come to the county order, I will leave a thousand men and horses here to help you guard Fushui Pass, and I will lead the army to Mianzhu to persuade Bingbo to surrender. If there is any hostile situation, feel free to report it! Zhao Feng finally admonished.

"Don't worry, general, everything is with me!" Lai Min replied respectfully. He knew very well in his heart that these thousand people were helping him defend the city, and to put it bluntly, they were spying on him, if Zhao Feng really trusted him, he would not let Niu Jin garrison Jiangyou. However, Lai Min is now already opening the bow and has no turning back, Jiang You's surrender and fraudulent opening of Fushui Pass are aimed at such a crime, if he falls into the hands of Liu Zhang, it will be a death.

Not to mention what happened to Lai Min at this time, Zhao Feng and Yang Ren led five thousand mixed men and horses to drive all the way to Mianzhu. At the same time, Wang Ping led 500 soldiers, changed into the clothes of the Sichuan army, and then carried the processed grain and grass, and the soldiers were divided into two routes to Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass.

"General, just probed the Malay report, the three generals and Zhuge Junshi have captured Ba County, and Zhang Ren led the army to retreat to Luocheng." At this time, Ma Jian hurried over.

"So fast?" Zhao Feng was a little surprised that Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang came so quickly, but thinking that Zhang Fei could capture Ba County alone, it would only be easier to add Zhuge Liang. Although Zhang Ren seems to be a little stronger than Yan Yan, I believe that Zhuge Liang will make Zhang Fei stronger than a little bit.

It's just that now the problem is here, Zhang Ren retreated to Luocheng, even if he took Mianzhu, it would be impossible to kill Chengdu directly. With Zhang Ren here, he will definitely have to take some setbacks. As for whether Lu Xun in the north can go south to help him after solving Yan Yan, it seems that it can only depend on his character.

Putting aside those messy ideas, Zhao Feng led the army to advance towards Mianzhu with all his might. This time, Zhao Feng didn't mean to hide it at all, and made it clear that he would rush to Mianzhu with great fanfare. When there were still dozens of miles away from Mianzhu, Feiguan, the general of Mianzhu, knew that Zhao Feng was coming, and this surprise was really extraordinary.

"Why is General Zhao here, could it be that Jiameng Pass and Jianmen Pass have been lost?" In Mianzhu City, Fei Guan couldn't help but be at a loss and muttered to himself. At this time, the sentry came to report, saying that Zhao Feng had arrived in the city, and asked him to come out and speak. Fei Guan had no choice but to go and socialize with Zhao Feng first.

"Bingbo, why don't you open the city gate when the old man is visiting?" Under Mianzhu City, Zhao Feng greeted loudly with a relaxed face, and he was full of spirit and even had a feeling of being untouchable. Looking at such an arrogant Zhao Feng, Fei Guan swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and still asked his strangest question: "General Zhao, why are you here?" ”
