It is difficult to go to Shu and it is difficult to go to the sky.

The ancient Shu Road, there is no direct wide passage, only a path in the mountains. Here, you can't ride a horse, and you can't use a wagon to transport goods. It was in this environment that the caravan was born, walking on the ancient tea horse road and transporting goods back and forth.

From Hanzhong Mansion to the south, it is Sichuan. The difficulty of transportation has been increased from level 1 to level 6, and large equipment cannot be transported at all, and the new army of heavy cavalry or heavy infantry is also very dangerous in this environment. It can be said that walking in such an environment, spear light infantry or rattan armor soldiers are more suitable.

Seriously, Zhang Hongbin didn't plan to send people south to the land of Bashu so soon.

At least, it should be next year.

But there is no way, Zhang Xianzhong's guy also took a fancy to this. And what made Zhang Hongbin very concerned was why no one won Sichuan when the lottery was drawn? Supposedly, such a mistake is impossible.

So, what is the reason why Sichuan did not store zài in the lottery box? At that time, Zhang Hongbin didn't understand, but now he understands it somewhat.

is located in Shaanxi, and the next step is either Shanxi or Sichuan, and Sichuan is very likely to be a buffer zone for Wang Jiayin to himself. The meaning is also very clear: Sichuan gives it to you, don't attack other places, you must know that other comrades are there!

Yes, Zhang Hongbin did not draw a lottery, but just strongly demanded Shaanxi, a place that had been abandoned by them. In fact, there was no Shaanxi in the lottery box at the beginning, Zhang Hongbin wanted Shaanxi, so as compensation, there was no Sichuan in the lottery box, which was originally promised to Zhang Hongbin.

After all, since ambition cannot be erased, then let's transfer! When everyone has a firm foothold in the local area, there is still a fight, if Zhang Hongbin attacks other places as soon as possible, they have no ability to defend at all. The price is nothing more than a Sichuan that is difficult to defeat, which is very cost-effective.

That's right, it's hard to beat down here.

Sichuan people are very united, especially here there is an old famous general, or an old female general, her name is Qin Liangyu.

The 5,000 white-pole soldiers under his command came and went in the mountainous terrain like flying, and the mountainous terrain of Sichuan was their advantageous battlefield. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Qin Liangyu's mother and son and the white pole soldiers under their command were also rare elite soldiers. However, the economy of the imperial court has been tight, and many soldiers who died on the battlefield have not been paid, and in the end, the old woman Qin paid for it herself, how long can such a day be supported? You know, although she loves Daming and can die on the battlefield for Daming, she can't help but think about her descendants and the families of the soldiers, right?

History may have really changed a lot, and Qin Liangyu, who was supposed to be active in the Battle of Dalinghe, was not in Liaodong at that time. Come to think of it, it was the fire gun drawings that were circulated that made Chongzhen gain great self-confidence. Besides, there is a Salvation Army in Shaanxi, and it is impossible to say that there is no one to guard Sichuan without it, so Qin Liangyu was not transferred over, right?

But this is also good, the white pole soldiers will not suffer heavy losses, and her son Ma Xianglin will not lose an eye because of this. There are also bad things, that is, the establishment of the white pole soldiers has not been disabled, and its combat effectiveness is at its peak. At most, there is a certain problem with the distribution of military salaries and grain and grass.

"According to the current information, Qin Liangyu's department has gone over to conquer Zhang Xianzhong's department who entered Shu. In other words, the chances of them coming north to intercept us are low. But what is certain is that there will not be such a probability at all. You must know that in such a mountainous terrain, even if the other party only has 3,000 people, it can be used as 30,000 people. "Cao Wenzhao was also a famous general, so he was naturally very familiar with Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers.

"What I'm worried about now is not how we're going to face Qin Liangyu and the white pole soldiers, it's how we're going to break through the pass ahead. In such an environment, we simply cannot use our manpower, and there is a lack of places where artillery can be erected, and relying solely on traditional siege warfare is too dangerous. Li Dingguo said worriedly.

"Speaking of which, didn't Deng Ai also fight Shu back then? At that time, Deng Ai took a detour to the Guannai to launch an attack and win, now we might as well look for which shortcut back then? "Hao Shaoqi, who went out with the army for the first time, arrived.

"You said that you read too many books, that is something in the romance, and I am afraid that there was no such path from the beginning at all." Cao Wenzhao sighed and said.

"If you don't look for it, how do you know?" Hao Shaoqi didn't intend to go against himself as a supervisor, but he was more insistent on his own construction.

"What do you think?" Cao Wenzhao did not reply, but only asked Li Dingguo, who was in a state of contemplation.

"I think we can try to send someone to look for it, or ask the local villagers. You know, according to our information, there is a small village not far ahead! Li Dingguo gave a different opinion.

"Okay...... I hope that this kind of village, which has enjoyed a lot of benefits around our territory, can be on our side. Cao Wenzhao replied.

In fact, many people know that the Qin State of Shaanxi is a country of paradise. As long as you come here, you can not only eat well, but also eat well. The Qin State not only silently contributed to itself, but also benefited the surrounding people, such as this small Sichuan village near Shaanxi.

"Everyone, but Qin Jun?" Not long after, three hundred Qin troops had already entered the village, and the old village chief quickly stepped forward to greet them.

"We are, uncle, we have something to ask you about, I don't know if it's convenient?" The leader is naturally Hao Shaoqi.

"It's okay, we just happened to be resting, don't hesitate to tell me if you have any questions." The old village chief had indeed received a lot of favors from the Qin State, so he was naturally enthusiastic.

"Our army is going to officially attack Sichuan and bring you a good life. But at present, the Ming army is guarding the front checkpoint, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to break through if it is frontal. So I'd love to ask if there are any other trails to cross. I heard that during the Three Kingdoms era, Deng Ai took a shortcut here. Hao Shaoqi tried his best to maintain a kind tone and said to the old village chief.

"That's just legend...... But similar trails are not unfounded. It was a road that I heard had been stopped for more than 300 years, and I still know the approximate direction, after all, we rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and if we don't know the mountain roads, how can we survive? That road had not been walked for nearly 300 years, and it was either dangerously rugged or ruined to the point of being impossible to walk. But there is one thing that the ancestors know from their ancestors, and that is that the road should be able to go around the back of the other party. After carefully recalling it, the old village chief said solemnly.

"Can you tell me where the hell is that road? No matter how difficult it is, as long as it allows us to conquer the level with fewer casualties, it's worth it! Hao Shaoqi said very strictly.

The old village chief didn't talk nonsense, and immediately led them to a place that was already overgrown with weeds and could no longer see the road.

I saw that the old village chief had harvested several weeds in the grass with a sickle, and only then did he reveal a road, or rather a road that looked like a road. As the old village chief said, it has fallen into disrepair and ruined. And the biggest trouble is that it still needs to be a little bit out of the way. "How's it going?" Cao Wenzhao pointed to the mountain road.

They are cavalry, and they will not dismount to fight, so this kind of mountain road that can only take infantry can naturally only be worried about by Li Dingguo.

"Let Hao Shaoqi divide a special team of five hundred people, and let them carefully bypass from there. It doesn't matter how it ends, I hope they can go to the other side of the level without any damage. Li Dingguo gave his opinion.

Hao Shaoqi, a newcomer, naturally had nothing to say, so he immediately set off with his people. The group started all the way up the mountain, and when the sun set, it was only three miles away, and God knows when they would be able to reach that side.

You can't do it without tidying up the weeds, and earlier when one stepped on the air, one of the soldiers walked casually without mowing the grass, but accidentally stepped on the air and fell down. Come to think of it, it's already unsaved. No one else had the time to bring his bones up.

Hao Shaoqi and his party rested on the mountain road.

However, the mountain road is very steep, and in many places only one person is allowed to move sideways. It is no wonder that such a mountain road will be abolished, and a big wind blowing may cause a living human life to leave like this.

The next day, the group continued to open the road, and after a short time, they finally found a stone tablet in an open field.

This is a stone tablet erected by Deng Ai, the general of Cao Wei, and it is a souvenir to celebrate his surprise attack on the Shu army. However, the existence of this stele also shows one thing, that is, Deng Ai did take this road back then, and attacked Shu Han and won the victory.

So, today, can these people also follow the level of the Ming Dynasty?

But they forgot it, since they knew this road, how could the army of the Ming Dynasty not know? In the blink of an eye, more than 3,000 soldiers armed with special ash pole spears surrounded them from all directions.

It can be seen that they are the legendary white pole soldiers. This also means that Qin Liangyu may be nearby, or her son Ma Xianglin will be. As for being at the same time, it was impossible, after all, Qin Liangyu also had to deal with the invading Zhang Xianzhong troops.

The only thing that is certain now is that when the enemy appears, it is necessary to enter the battle state as soon as possible.
