Chapter 17 The Prime Minister was surprised, Zhang Meng was troubled

Zhuge Liang laughed when he heard this, smiled very kindly, and commanded softly: "You can tell me what you say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, don't worry." ”

Zhang Meng said and said: "Prime Minister, the first time we fought, we defeated Cao Wei Yongliang's hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, but Cao Wei still didn't make a big move, and he still had the ability to continue to send troops to fight us."

However, this takes time.

The last general estimated that the next time Cao Bing came over, it should be two or three months later at the earliest.

Now, in two or three months, we should do this - not to rush to Guanzhong, but to sweep the periphery and consolidate the gains of our victory in the war.

The three counties of Tianshui, Nan'an, and Anding, north of Qishan, are all garrisoned by Cao soldiers, and if we march to Guanzhong now, the Cao soldiers in these three counties will be enough to cut off our supply of grain and grass.

From this point of view, our army should immediately start to capture the three counties of Tianshui and Nan'an, and arrange competent officials to manage them after success, so as to expand the rear base of our next attack on Guanzhong.

Zhang Meng went on to say that in addition, to prevent a sneak attack by Cao Bing, he arranged heavy guards in the street pavilion north of Qishan.

In order to prevent Cao's soldiers from taking a shortcut to attack and cut off our rear road, we should arrange in advance for heavy troops to ambush at the Keigu Pass, where there are several important crossings leading to Guanzhong, such as the Meridian Road, the Diagonal Praise Road, and the Chencang Road.

In this way, within three or four months, we have dealt with the peripheral affairs, concentrated our forces, and prepared to fight with Cao Bing who will appear next time. ”

Zhuge Liang listened to Zhang Meng's analysis at this time, opened the map, and asked Zhang Meng to point to the map to explain his strategic insights. Hearing this, Zhuge Liang nodded frequently and said to himself: "This kid is really a natural war wizard!" Hehe, talent is rare. No wonder Zhao Yun said that he got the blessing of Zhang Meng is emperor of the Han Dynasty, yes, it really makes sense. ”

Talking to himself at this point, Zhuge Liang got up and sat next to the case again, smiling and squinting at Zhang Meng, looked at it for a while, and asked, "Zhang Meng, is there anything else to add?" ”

When Zhang Meng saw it, he opened his mouth and replied: "Prime Minister, you captured Xiahou Mao alive this time, how do you plan to deal with him?" Kill him or let him go? ”

Zhuge Liang asked rhetorically: "What do you say?" What do you think is the best way to deal with it? ”

"Prime Minister, the last general thinks that Xiahou Nan is a rich second generation, and he can eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, but he can't do business! Therefore, it is useless to kill him, it is better to let it go, and order him to persuade the above three counties to surrender to us! ”

"Do you think he will let him go, and he will convince the three counties to surrender?"

"It's generally impossible, but letting him go to Anding will definitely be beneficial for us to seize the above three counties!"

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he was shocked: "This kid is so smart, and predicting big things coincides with my plan!" Thinking of this, he was overjoyed, got up and ordered: "Zhang Meng, not bad." The prediction makes a lot of sense. Well, so be it, you've been fighting for days, you must be tired, go ahead, get some rest, and get ready for the next battle. ”

Before watching Zhang Meng walk out of the big tent, Zhuge Liang instructed: "To deal with Xiahou Nan's affairs, Zhang Meng doesn't have to come over to ask for instructions, you can just watch and do it." ”

To deal with the matter of seized materials, Zhuge Liang made his own arrangements, and deliberately took a few days off to let Zhao Yun's 5,000 men and horses rest on the spot.

This Zhang Meng doesn't feel a little tired, except for sleeping at night, he just doesn't want to be idle at other times, besides, when he is idle, mainly when he sleeps, he can't sleep.

Why can't Zhang Meng sleep? I'm worried about Gao Ling's affairs.

Zhang Meng, who has regarded Gao Ling as his daughter-in-law since he was a child, has lived with Gao Ling for more than ten years. They all graduated from junior high school, and although they all know about adults, they are not old enough. Since crossing over to the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Meng has basically adapted to this time - the aliens have reshaped themselves into an invulnerable body, and his brain is not stupid, and he can predict that at this time, he is in the Shu barracks, so ah, Zhang Meng is not only adapted, but also very satisfied.

However, Gao Ling's appearance made him upset, can he not be upset? But what should I do?

Gao Ling is injured at this time, and she is recuperating in the deep mountains and dense forests, and she will definitely not be able to recover for two or three days! I don't know how the injury is going, Zhang Meng can steal some time to go over and take a look. But what should I do when Gao Ling's injury heals? Let her stay at Orion's house all the time, she is certainly unwilling, and she is not at ease; What reason was it for taking her in the barracks? Definitely not suitable.

Let's just say that it is suitable to take it in the barracks, and in what capacity does it appear? Be a female soldier? In the entire Shu soldier team, where is there a female soldier? Needless to say, in the Shu soldier team, even there are no female soldiers in the Cao soldier team, if there are female soldiers, Cao Cao still needs to sleep with Zhang Xiu's aunt?

If I show up in the army as my daughter-in-law, but I don't get married!

Appearing as a lover, hey, that's even worse, the generals and soldiers up and down must have scolded me Zhang Meng for being a······ What can I do?

So in the past few days, Zhang Meng has been so sad that he can't sleep, he scratches his scalp when he can't sleep, and it's useless to scratch his scalp, there is still no way.

"Well, it's good that Gao Ling didn't recognize herself that night, if she had recognized it at that time, she would have cried and screamed to go with me!"

Thinking like this, Zhang Meng relaxed his mood, "I didn't let Gao Ling recognize it, you can give me time to brew." There will definitely be a way when the time comes! Zhang Meng muttered to himself.

At this time, Zhang Meng was resting with the soldiers in the barracks, and the soldiers were really happy and excited, why? If you win the battle, can you not be happy? Not only did he win the battle, but he also captured Cao Nan, the governor of Cao Bing, alive, can you not be happy? Not only did they capture Cao Bing's governor alive, but they also captured a large number of strategic materials - 300,000 Cao soldiers' swords, guns, swords, and halberds were piled up, rice, white flour, cattle, mutton and pork were supplied in sufficient quantities······ Can all of this not be a delight?

The soldiers were happy, and Zhang Meng was also happy, but Zhang Meng had one more thought than everyone - being troubled by beautiful women, so after eating and drinking, he lay on his own bunk and couldn't sleep over and over again.

When the soldiers fought on the battlefield, Zhang Meng never bothered, just did it, but this little Gao Ling made Zhang Meng have no idea. Since you don't pay attention, you have to be patient, Zhang Meng thought, there will always be a way, so you can't delay the things in front of you - eat when you should eat, sleep when you should sleep, and lead the soldiers to practice if you can't eat well and sleep well.

However, these days, it is not only Gao Ling's affairs that make Zhang Meng upset, but there is also one point that is also very disturbing - there are too many wounded soldiers and too few military doctors.
