Chapter 416: Lu Meng vs. Zhang Liao

The whole Jingzhou began to have an undercurrent surging, and Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan had been teaching Liu Mang not to sell any grain and grass in the entire Jingzhou, but Liu Mang wanted to win over the people he could to buy grain and grass.

and Liu Mang fought with the little turkey in Jingzhou, but the Linhuai generation in Yangzhou is really clear about the situation, and now Zhang Liao has to face an army of 50,000 in front, plus 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city on the way, that is 70,000 horses!

Zhang Liao's scouts were sent out early, and it can be said that almost the entire direction of the way near the water's edge was sent scouts, waiting for the arrival of Sun Quan's soldiers and horses.

Sure enough, Zhang Liao didn't have to wait long, and soon a scout appeared with columns of soldiers and horses galloping in the direction of the way, although they were only infantry, but they were extremely fast.

"General, after this dense forest, we are about to enter the territory on the way!" Ling hugged his fist at Lu Meng.

"Well," Lu Meng nodded, he and Ling can be regarded as friends, and the two have played since childhood, so the cooperation between the two is very close, but Ling has always been based on military orders, and when he enters the army, he directly calls Lu Meng a general, and Lu Meng can't change it.

As long as you pass through this forest, you will be on the way to the territory, and after the disaster, you can be horns with the city on the way.

"Zigan, let the army stop, the whole army enters the dense forest, camps and rests?!" Lu Meng said to his partner Ling.

"Into the dense forest and set up camp?!" Lu Meng's words stunned Ling on the spot.

What does Lu Meng want to do? After this dense forest, it is the city on the way, and the order they got is to arrive at the city on the way, and resist Liu Mang's army together with the defenders on the way, until the arrival of the large army, if they camp in this dense forest1, isn't this delaying the warplane! You must know that this is far away from the city on the way, and there is a range of dozens of miles.

There is also a low-level mistake made by Lu Meng. Military law has a cloud and do not enter the forest, because there may not only be ambushes in the forest, but also the strategy of being burned by people.

"Huh! it, it! I'm sure you've seen the map along the way. On the way, the city belongs to Yangzhou. Although Yangzhou and our Jiangdong generally have many waters, they are not as dense as Jiangdong. So beyond this dense forest, it's a plain! On the plains, do you have a way to directly face the Xiliang Iron Horse?! Lu Meng chuckled and looked at Ling and said. Moreover, our army has traveled a long way, and the journey is tired, if the enemy attack directly through the dense forest. There is no way to resist at all, and in the end we can only return in a rout, could it be that we have forgotten what the military advisor told us before leaving?! ”

Ling nodded, he knew what Lu Su said when he left, and he told them to be careful all the way. You can travel long distances, but before you arrive on the way, you must have a good rest and don't be turned around. Yi Yi waited for labor to be caught off guard, "Then we can't set up camp again!" "Ling still doesn't understand, it's dozens of miles away from here, if you want to rest, just sit on the ground, the army has dry food on them, eat dry food and drink some water, you can go on the road again, instead of now Lu Meng wants to let the whole army enter a state of rest, and camp in the camp, do you want to stay here and not leave? Or do you want to stay there for a long time?

"There's no difference between setting up camp here and camping under the city on the way!" Lu Meng shook his head and explained to Ling, "Zigan, you see that this dense forest is dozens of miles away from the way, but once you cross this dense forest, it is a plain, on the plain, the cavalry can pass quickly, and we can also run quickly, if this Liu Mang's army attacks the city on the way, he only has 10,000 horses, including 5,000 heavy armored cavalry, even if the defenders in the city on the way are pigs, he can also have four crotch ones!" If the general of Liu Mang's army prepares to attack the whole army and let the Xiliang Iron Cavalry also join the siege, then we will directly attack quickly, the distance of dozens of miles, it is a plain, we can arrive in half a day, and then Liu Mang's army is busy attacking the city, and no one will stop it, so he can attack the defenders in the city on the way, inside and outside, and he will definitely let Liu Mang's army not eat and walk! "Staying in this dense forest is more threatening than appearing directly outside the city on the way!

"But don't enter the forest!" Ling still has a deep sense of military law.

"In the middle of the woods, there may be ambushes! But you see, in this dense forest, the sound of birds and birds is noisy! It's hard to lurk in it! "If there were people in the dense forest, they might have startled these birds a long time ago, and the whole dense forest should be silent" Yes, there must be no ambush in this forest! ”

"And what Zigan is worried about is nothing more than fire attack! Hehe! Zigan, I also said before, this Yangzhou has many waters, located in the south of the Yangtze River, lush forests, rain and dew, ordinary fires can't burn at all! "Forest fires are usually born in those dry dense forests in the north, those dead branches and leaves are exposed to direct sunlight, the temperature rises, and finally leads to fires, and even if someone is committed to fire prevention, it is very easy, just light a handful! Therefore, in the military law, it is said that the jungle must be entered.

And these clouds of military law, but are written by the people of the north, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, this area south of the Yangtze River really became a place full of people, before the Han Dynasty, even in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Jiangdong was completely barbaric, even if this Yangzhou is similar to Jiangdong, only exiled people were reached here!

Therefore, it is difficult for military law to investigate the situation in this Huainan area, Huainan has a lot of rain, the land is moist, and there are many rivers, it is difficult to burn at all, how can those dead branches and leaves appear! Once it falls on the ground, it is corroded by the damp air and eventually becomes fertilizer.

Lu Meng also specially took a branch for Ling to see, it was so wet that it was difficult to burn at all.

"Camp in the middle of the jungle, this jungle is our natural barrier! No matter how rampant his Xiliang Iron Horse was, he didn't dare to rush into the forest! If he dares to come, hehe, I will thank him for the exploits he sent! Lu Meng's words made Ling's heart finally settle down, "So go down and prepare!" ”

"Report, report to the general! Enemy scouts are ahead! A herald ran over to Lu Meng and said.

"It's coming, huh?!" Lu Meng nodded,

"Does the general want me to send someone to clean them up?!" Ling asked on the side, kill the scout to hide his whereabouts! After all, no one likes to be watched.

"Why clean up! Show them, show them generously! No one is allowed to move unless they are within 100 steps of the camp! : Lu Meng waved his hand and ordered! He just wants to tell the enemy that he Lu Meng is here, and he is looking at you in this dense forest~
