Chapter 237: The Horn Momentum
Outside Baocheng Pass, Liang military camp.
In Zheng Da's camp, the generals of the Liang army who attacked Shu this time were among them. Just like Rong Can, Di Sheng, Huan Zilu and other generals, there are more than a dozen people.
Zheng Da looked at the map hanging next to the handsome case, and was frowning.
In the camp before and after, there were 70,000 Liang troops. In the past few days, the 70,000 Liang army and the black fly army have fought several battles, each with its own victory and defeat.
At this time, Jin Xin had already taken the Black Fly Army to stick to Yangping Pass and no longer go out to fight.
Although Liang Jun had already established himself outside this Baocheng Pass, he did not achieve his strategic goals.
The Black Fly Army is brave, as it is in attack, and it is also true in defense. It is precisely because of the characteristics of the Black Fly Army that it is called the strongest army in the world.
But knowing this, Zheng Da still had an anxiety in his heart.
Although the Liang army outside Baocheng Pass is now the main force, in the strategic preset, it is to cooperate with the 100,000 troops of Huan Biao from Quegu, and the two join forces to destroy the Shu army.
Now that the camp has been established and the grain route has been stabilized, I don't know when I will enter Zhounan County?
Yang Xian was not in a hurry to fight a decisive battle with the Liang army, because at this time, a large amount of grain and grass had been hoarded in Miancheng, Nanzhong, and Gucheng. The military rations of Baochengguan only need to be transferred from Miancheng, and the grain route is only more than ten miles.
However, the grain and grass in the Liang army camp were transported from the scattered water pass hundreds of miles away, and they had to pass through the Shu Road for hundreds of miles, which was not comparable to the Shu army at all.
For every point of food consumed by Yang Xian's Black Bug Army, the Liang Army needed to consume five or six points. The longer the time dragged on, the greater the losses of the Liang army. Yongzhou is rich, but it can't withstand such consumption.
"Generals, General Huan Biao has sent a letter, asking us to enter Baocheng Pass as soon as possible and contain the forces of Shu General Yang Ping. What are your plans? ”
As soon as Zheng Da's words fell, all the Liang generals shook their heads.
"Baocheng Pass is the Xiongguan Pass in the world, and Yang Xian sent the Black Fly Army to garrison it. If Jin Xin wants to defend to the death, he will take the lives of our 70,000 soldiers, and I am afraid that he will not be able to break through his defense. ”
Dickson spoke. Although these words were a bit imposing to others, the generals of the Huan clan in the camp were not disgusted.
Huan Zilu arched his hand and said: "General Disheng is right, there is only one way to die by storming. ”
Huan Zilu is among the young generals of the Huan family, although he is not as famous as Huan Youji and Huan Zishan, but he is also a talented general.
"I have a plan, I hope General Zheng can adopt it."
Huan Zilu walked to the map, beside Zheng Da, and pointed to a path next to Baocheng Pass.
"The last general can lead a force of soldiers and horses to attack on this road, bypass Baocheng Pass, and enter Zhounan County. At this time, most of the Shu army's military strength was concentrated in the area of Baocheng Pass and Nanzhong. If I lead the army to the Leishi Mountain and defend it from a high position, I will be able to cut off the connection between Baocheng Pass and Nanzhong. Then it will definitely be able to cause chaos in the Shu army. ”
Zheng Da groaned, his brows gradually stretched, but he was still furrowed.
"Leishi Mountain is in the south of Miancheng, and there is no shortage of water on it. However, if we are to succeed, we must maintain a grain route from our camp to the rocky mountain. This plan is too dangerous, once the grain route is cut off, then Zilu you will be besieged by the Shu army, and we will not be able to rescue at that time. ”
Huan Zilu arched his hand and said: "It is actually not difficult to maintain the grain road. This trail is east-west, with mountains in the north and south, leading to the rocky mountain. The Shu army of Baochengguan is here, and the number will not be too much. As long as the elite soldiers and horses are selected, it is enough to maintain. ”
"Ke Zilu, have you forgotten? Two years ago, in order to maintain the Yongshui waterway and purge the demon clans on both sides of the strait, Yang Xian used a barbarian beast. In the mountains, brutes are not easy to deal with! ”
As soon as Zheng Da said this, all the generals groaned. There was a sudden sound outside the tent, and Lu Qingfei's figure walked out from outside.
"Rest assured, generals, I have come this time and brought more than a dozen monks from Jiuhua Mountain who are proficient in the art of domestication, which is enough to compete with Yang Xian's brute beasts."
As soon as Lu Qingfei said this, Zheng Da's brows finally stopped wrinkling.
In this way, as long as Zilu can gain a firm foothold on Leishi Mountain, Jin Xin will not be able to sit in Baocheng Pass. At that time, the Shu army will definitely attack this large camp. Without further ado, Zilu, you set off immediately, and you must occupy the Fortress Mountain before the Shu army finds out our intentions. ”
When Zheng Da said this, he hesitated slightly, and then repaired: "Di Sheng, you also lead a group of soldiers and horses, go with Zilu, and occupy Jirong Mountain." If the two mountains are obtained, they can become horns and can contain a large number of troops of the Shu army. When the time comes, General Huan Biao will come out of Quegu, and it will definitely be smoother. Jin Xin's Black Fly Army and Yang Ping's Changce Army were not subordinate to each other. We took advantage of this opportunity to plunge a sharp knife into the hinterland of the Shu army. ”
"The last general obeys!"
Watching Di Sheng and Huan Zilu leave, Zheng Da took a slight breath. He understood that opening up the situation was only the first step, and in Zhounan County, there was still that old monster Yang Chun to face.
That's the real enemy!
South Central.
Separated by a river, Yang Ping rode a horse to inspect, followed by more than ten generals.
Exploring the Malay report, Liang General Huan Biao led an army of 100,000 from Haojing and arrived at the north entrance of Quegu. In recent days, Liang Jun's visit to the school has been a Quegu crossing, with frequent activities.
Yang Ping concentrated his forces and wanted to fight Huan Biao. Therefore, he had to look for favorable terrain.
A gallop in the distance, speeding away.
"General Yang Ping, there is an urgent report from the front, 10,000 Liang troops have bypassed Baocheng Pass and want to enter the two mountains of Baoshi and Jirong. When General Jin Xin found out, it was too late, and he ordered 5,000 Black Fly troops to occupy Jirong Mountain, opposite the Liang army. ”
"What!"
Yang Ping was shocked, he knew very well the importance of these two mountains. If the Liang army had occupied those two mountains, they would have fallen into an extremely passive state.
Fortunately, at this time, the Liang army only occupied one.
"What did General Jin Xin say?"
"General Jin Xin wanted to cut off the grain route of the Liang army, but his troops were insufficient. General Jin Xin sent an urgent letter asking the general to send troops to help. ”
Yang Ping's complexion became very bad, although Jin Xin's remedy was timely, but the Liang army was strong, and it would definitely contain a large number of troops.
Despite this, Yang Ping also had to be saved.
Just as he was about to give the order to send troops, an eagle roared in the sky.
"That's the lord's letter eagle!"
Yang Ping took the bamboo tube tied to the letter eagle and unfolded it to see that his gloomy face was soothed.
"General, what did the lord say?"
"The lord said that he had his own way to deal with the matter of the rocky mountain. Let me concentrate on this place and deal with the Huan Biao army. ”
The generals were a little surprised, they didn't know where Yang Xian was at this time. But they also knew that this information was sent from Jin Xin's camp. And Yang Xian actually knew faster than them, and even made corresponding arrangements.
Could it be that he was also in the rocky mountains at this time?
