Chapter 234: Domination of the World
Baocheng Pass.
The road to Shu is difficult, from the scattered water pass to the south, only one rice cang road can pass into Shu, the east and west are lofty mountains and mountains, and there are few people.
Go to Baocheng Pass, Wangnan is the Sword Pavilion, to the west is Wuping County, to the east is Zhounan County.
Baocheng Pass is surrounded by mountains, a water flows, the terrain is dangerous, it is the gate to control Zhounan County, and it is also the key point of Shu State.
Zhounan is only a county, but it is a place to benefit from the northern part of the state, and it is also a good place to garrison troops. Therefore, if the princes of Yizhou were wanted to be obtained in the past dynasties, they all took the control of Zhounan County as the first priority.
If you abandon Zhounan County and take Shu directly, then you will not only be blocked by the Sword Pavilion, but also be cut off from the back road, and the whole army will be in danger of being wiped out.
The sky was gray, Jin Xin stood on the high mountain, looking at the clouds in the distance, with the intention of killing.
"Did Liang Jun appear overnight?"
Between the mountains and fields in the distance, the fog is shrouded, but the rudiments of the camp can be faintly seen, the guard tower is erected, and the soldiers patrol.
Jin Xin's face was solemn, and yesterday evening the report turned around, and Liang Jun was still a hundred miles away. But overnight, they traveled hundreds of miles and set up a camp.
According to Jin Xin's knowledge, each general of the Liang army has its own strengths, but the army with this ability is afraid that only Zheng Da's Jianliu Battalion is the army.
"General, should we rush to their camp and test the truth."
Jin Xin nodded, whether it was Zheng Da or not, and whether Liang Jun was playing tricks or not, he must confirm it.
"Be careful, just test the real and the false, and don't fall in love."
"Yes, General!"
Baocheng Pass is not a walled-shaped Xiongguan, but a natural pass with more than ten miles of strategic buffer area in the east-west direction. There are mountains in the north and south of this place, and a water flows through and flows into Zhounan County. The Black Fly Army was stationed here, blocked by the mountains, resisted the water, and established a fortress. Even if the 100,000 Liang army attacked together, it was also helpless.
Jin Xin gave an order, and it didn't take long for Liao Cheng to come up. As the deputy of the chief general of the Black Fly Army, assist Jin Xin in taking charge of the Black Fly Army.
"Uncle Liao, what's wrong?"
"Zheng Da sent a letter of worship and invited you to get together."
Jin Xin smiled and waved his hand.
"Although I have an old friendship with him, after all, the camp is different at this time. Anyway, send a scout to find out his position first. ”
"Does the general suspect that this is Zheng Da's delaying tactic?"
"The two armies are at war, and the people's hearts are unpredictable."
Jin Nobunaga exhaled, and the cold air between the mountains and fields in the early morning was inhaled into his lungs, and he suddenly felt a chill, but his head was a little clearer.
"Uncle Liao, tell you to go down, and the whole army is ready. Zheng Da's Jianliu camp is good at guarding, and he must not let him gain a firm foothold here. After our army found out the truth, they immediately attacked the camp. ”
"My subordinates understand."
Liang army camp.
Arrows rain down and gallop like flying.
Outside the camp, the soldiers of the Black Fly Army were like fierce beasts, and as soon as the battle began, the Liang army suffered a loss, losing dozens of soldiers.
As a last resort, the commander of the Liang army had to order the whole army to avoid the camp and defend the enemy with arrows.
After only three moments of fighting, the Black Fly Army withdrew, but it left a deep impression on the soldiers of the Jianliu Battalion.
In the past, they were in the same camp, and the soldiers of the Liang army did not feel any different. Now that they are hostile, they finally know how powerful the Black Fly Army is.
"Is this the world's strongest army, the Black Fly Army?"
The commander of the Liang army was a little stunned, and unconsciously, a general with a medium stature and a somewhat gray beard walked over, looking at the black army in the distance, with some regret in his eyes.
"The predecessor of the Black Fly Army was the Golden Knife Battalion under Mu Duan Hui of Jingzhou back then. Duan Hui is so good, he is forced by Lord Wu in the east, and he is strong in the north, and he dares to compete with Chen Shi. With him in Jingzhou for a day, Yang Zhong didn't dare to look east. What a pity! Duan Hui was a hero, but he gave birth to an unsuccessful son, Duan Xiao, so that the foundation was taken by Cai Tong. But that's it, the Golden Knife Battalion still stayed in Nanyang. Later, due to fate, it was used by Jin Xiu. ”
"General!"
The white-bearded general is Zheng Da, the general of the Jianliu Battalion. Among the Liang army, no army was better at building fortifications than his Jianliu battalion. Huan Wu sent him here to stabilize his foothold and prepare for the arrival of the Liang army.
After all, the Shu Road is difficult, and there is almost no support from Sanshui Pass to here. The Liang army's grain road extended for more than 100 miles, which was extremely inconvenient.
"Jin Xiunai is a genius, he created his own Five Tigers, promoted the army, and created this powerful army in the world, the Black Fly Army, and was born in the environment surrounded by heroes, established a foothold in Nanyang County, and mistakenly destroyed Cai Tong's ambition to annex Nanyang. The Jin family has been operating for two generations, and it is deeply rooted in the black army and has a huge influence. When Jin Xiu surrendered, the lord treated him with princely courtesy, and despite everyone's opposition, he married Lord Huan Ying Weng to Jin Xin, which can be described as a very courteous treatment. ”
"But Jin Xin is the master after all, and he surrendered to Yang Xian."
When General Liang Jun said this, there was still some resentment in his words.
"Yes! I don't understand either. Among the generals of the younger generation, he is the one I am most optimistic about. Why did Jin Xin rebel? Why did you throw yourself at Yang Xian? Doesn't he know that the lord can tolerate any prince in the world, but he can't tolerate Yang Xian. I want an answer from him, because I know that he is not the kind of villain who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and forgets his righteousness. But after all, he still defended me and sent these soldiers to test me. ”
"The general has always been cautious, how can he fight an unprepared battle. The general sincerely invited, and Jin Xin spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. ”
Zheng Da sighed and said slowly: "Okay, this big battle is imminent. The lord ordered us to set up camp outside Baocheng Pass, and Yang Xian would not let us gain a firm foothold here. He was instructed to go down and intensify the construction of the camp to protect the water source. The 50,000-strong army in Sanshui Pass will join us in a few days. During this time, the camp must not be lost. ”
"The last will understand."
Zheng Dachang breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Baochengguan in the distance.
In fact, with Zheng Da's thoughts, Huan Wu didn't have to pay attention to Yang Xian at all, after all, there was a gap between them in six states. Huan Wu holds the Central Plains in his hands and has the best place in the world. As long as Huan Wu quietly waits for ten years, recuperates, and recovers the people's strength, then the gap between Liang and Shu will only get bigger and bigger.
Nanyang was defeated, and Liang Jun's situation was not good. In Zheng Da's heart, Liang Jun had to rest for at least three years before he could recover.
The road to Shu is difficult, this is true for the Liang army, and it is the same for the Shu army. Yang Xian wants to go north out of the Central Plains, but it is not easy.
The older generation of the Huan family is too obsessed with Yang Xian. Now in the entire Liang army, a group of generals with foreign surnames actually do not agree with the attack on Shu at this time. However, the generals of the Huan clan, like Huan Biao, Huan Zhong, Huan Gong and others, advocated doing their best to defeat Shu and dominate the world.
"If God bless Liang Jun, this time, I may get that answer! It's just my lord! Your trick is really too dangerous. ”
