Jiangyou, Zhangming, Mianzhou, Luojiang, Deyang......

In the past, Deng Ai braved the danger of the annihilation of the whole army and walked on the 700-mile Yinping trail with no people, and now it has been at the peak of the population early, and after the Dajian Mountain, it is the main official road connecting Shaanxi in Shuzhong. A big road leads to Chengdu -

Liu Rong thought of the current empty northern Sichuan, if the Taiping army was killed...... The tragic consequences were dripping with cold sweat. Lian issued a military order to Xiao Qinggao to go to Guangyuan, and it was necessary to ensure that Guangyuan was not lost. Then he ordered Zhu Guiqiu, who was stationed in Bayuguan and Qingshi Pass, and Xiangfa to attack Youfang Street, and the Qing army units in Xixiang, Dingyuan and Hanyin to attack the retreating Lan Zhou army and the Qiwang Liang Chengfu department.

But the heaviest task is still Liu Xian's department, for Liu Xian, who has received the documents of the Ministry of War and has become the chief soldier of Hanzhong Town, Liu Rong strictly ordered him to coordinate the Southern Zheng garrison, and must quickly attack the three armies of Lan Zhou and Taiping, and cut off the connection between his department and the main force of Chen Decai before.

Liu Xian, who watched this order, laughed!

Liu Rong said lightly, what about the other party's hundreds of thousands of troops, as well as Chen Decai's tail left on the edge of Nanzheng, they are all pinched in mud, can they be cut so easily?

Previously, the first battle of Xie Gongzhen was all the troops that Liu Xian could use, and Chenggu had to leave a part of the soldiers and horses to defend, deducting the volunteer battalion that coordinated the operation, and its troops were only 4,000 people.

Such a few people, even if they are covered in iron, how many nails can they pull out?

Without the favorable terrain of the Huangshui River, you can block the hundreds of thousands of troops like the mercury in the field?

And it is true that there are seven or eight thousand people in Nanzhengcheng, but can such a waste as Lu Youxiong be counted? Can Xiao Dongsheng, Luo Yuguang, and Huang Yaolong's Tiger Army, Hezi Battalion, Zhennan Army and other miscellaneous cards be counted? Subtract the Ding Zhuang newly recruited by Li Ying, these people are okay to defend the city, and they are pulled to the field outside the city purely to deliver food. After Mao Zhenshou went to work, he was not taken down by Zhang Shoudai, but fell into the third battalion of Yi Peishen's department in the hands of Liu Rong, and what Nan Zhengcheng could really rely on was the third battalion of Zhenbiao that continued to be in the hands of Chen Tianzhu.

Hanzhong Town, the three battalions of the town standard, the left and the right, the Jianing Shaanxi battalion, the Ningqiang battalion, the Yangping Guan battalion, the Luoyang battalion, the Liuba battalion, the Dingyuan battalion, the Xixiang battalion, the Huayang battalion, the Dongjiangkou battalion, the Hanzhong city guard battalion, the Hanfeng battalion, the Tieluchuan battalion, the Foping battalion and other thirteen battalions, a total of 16 battalions, full of more than 8,000 people. Now it is Ningqiang, Dingyuan, Xixiang, Huayang, Foping, Liuba six battalions are all wiped out, the rest of the battalions are all damaged, the strength of the loss of half of Tai, although the period has been supplemented several times, not counting Liu Xian's army at the moment is only 5,000 people.

There are also these people who have been fighting for many years [the war in Hanzhong has been two years younger], and their hearts are tired and their fighting spirit has shrunk. If it weren't for the strong Nanzheng City and the several victories of Liu Xian's army, the historical Nanzheng Mansion City was taken by the Taiping army half a year ago.

Last time, because King Liang Chengfu led tens of thousands of Taiping troops out of Ningqiang to cross Nanzheng and go to Xu, it caused a tragic battle. The two armies of Xiangguo and the center and right were all wiped out, the two general soldiers were almost spared, the corpses of the Qing army were piled up like mountains, the ditches were red, the new base of reinforcements became ashes, and the tragic scene frightened the defenders of Nanzheng almost collapsed.

After that battle, the spirit of the entire Nanzheng garrison was completely gone. Even if Liu Xian later returned to Hanzhong and won several battles, under the changes in the general situation, the situation in Hanzhong turned from dangerous to safe, and the morale of the Nanzheng defenders could not be boosted. Now they only have the ability to defend the city, and their enthusiasm for the war is not as good as that of the newly recruited Ding Zhuang, and they all rely on the thousands of people in the third battalion of the town to stabilize the situation. In this case, what is the difference between asking the Nanzheng defenders to send troops to intercept more than 100,000 troops and seeking skin with the tiger?

"You go to Fucheng and give this letter to Li Ying." Liu Xian couldn't make up his mind, should he turn a blind eye to Liu Rong's orders? He always felt that it was too explicit. recruited Fan Debang, first asked Wang Luying's father and brother about the situation under him, and was satisfied when he learned that it was 'almost'. Then he talked about what he was struggling with.

Van Debang also felt that not doing anything was too blatant. But he also explained that Liu Xian, who is covered by Duolong's figure, will not be a big deal even if he commits a 'taboo', at most he will be reprimanded. And the Taiping army is really about to enter Sichuan, Liu Rong will definitely have some nagging, plus the defeat of the last time, it is not impossible to lose the Futai throne that he just made!

As a wartime situation, it is not a good thing for Liu Xianjun to have a governor with a strong background, strong strength, and clever brains.

If you want to pry the 'threat', now is a great opportunity.

The unfamiliarity with the Manchu officialdom made it difficult for Liu Xian to make a decision. He wrote a letter to Li Ying, and the professional problem should be handed over to the experts to solve. Fan Debiao said: "Get the reply letter and return to Chenggu immediately, without delay." ”

After running errands repeatedly, Fan Debiao is going to become Liu Xianam's professional messenger.

Fan Debiao, who felt Liu Xian's eagerness, did not delay at all, took the letter out of the house, recruited the riders in the guard to escort him, and a group of seven or eight people rode their horses to Nanzheng and galloped.

At the same time, the prisoner camp of Chenggu Nanguan. There are thousands of captives in the encirclement inside, and a large number of people are carefully screening them.

All those who are a family and have relatives are recorded and assigned to the northern district of the prisoner camp. Southern. If there is a man in the family, they will be assigned to the North District Group, and if there is no man, whether they have children or not, how many or few children they have, they will all be assigned to the second group. The bare pole brothers, uncles and nephews, fathers and sons, etc., are all incorporated into the Southern District. If there are no family members, the men will be assigned to the eastern district and the female to the western district.

All four districts, men over 50 years old and women over 40 years old, are all specially marked.

These people will be regarded as Liu Xian's 'slaves' in the future, and Liu Xian must not only let them live well and work for themselves, but also take into account the reorganization and rebirth of male and female families. And men over 50 years old, women over 40 years old, in this era will definitely enter old age, whether they are willing to remarry and start a 'new life', Liu Xian also has to consider their meaning.

Of course, another important reason for careful screening in the prisoner camp is to see if there are any big fish mixed in it, and then appropriately pinch out some hardliners.

And the distribution of the four districts, disrupting the hidden connection between the captives, is the best opportunity and means to eliminate the hardliners and search for the big fish.

In the evening, it seemed that it was time for dinner. Huo Guangzheng, the old watch that Liu Xian values the most, came to him.

is two years younger than Liu Xian, and he has not read seriously, but he has a smart brain, and he can use the opportunity of being an apprentice in a pawnshop to read, write, and count. Before Liu Xian crossed over, Huo Guangzheng was definitely the most knowledgeable person among all their relatives.

After Liu Xian raised the army, he made him Fan Debang's deputy in the baggage camp. There is a certain amount of checks and balances in this, after all, the baggage battalion is in charge of all his money and wealth, but the other aspect is also to train Huo Guangzheng.

Liu Xian's ambition is grand, and it will take a long time to practice, and in such a long period of time, in the case of the increasingly large war system in modern times, how much does he need logistics talents?
