The Northern Route Army was blocked by the rogue methods of the Sima family under the Mianzhu Pass. It will be difficult to make progress for a while. And the same problem is now in front of the soldiers of the Southern Route Army.

Just when Xu Rong's army was approaching Mianzhu Pass, Tai Shici also led 80,000 troops to Wuyang City, one hundred and fifty miles south of Chengdu. Although the Southern Route Army was not equipped with the powerful Shenwu General Cannon, it still carried a lot of small Shenwu cannons. This thing also scared the Yizhou defenders half to death along the way, so Sima Yi still adopted the strategy of Mianzhu Pass when dealing with the Southern Route Army - kidnapping innocent people to use as a cover to protect Wuyang City!

The Southern Route Army was different from the Northern Route Army, and when they went south by boat, the powerful Shenwu General Cannon had not yet been developed, and even if it was successfully developed at that time, they could not be equipped. This thing is indeed powerful, but it is too bulky and huge to be transported in the southern part of Yizhou, where the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the roads are rugged.

When Tai Shi Ci saw the old and weak women and children crowded together on the earthen city that was temporarily built in front of Wuyang City, the anger in his heart was even worse than Xu Rong.

Tai Shici was born in a bitter cold family, and serving his old mother was even more filial. At the beginning, Zhao Xing was able to successfully recruit Tai Shici because Zhao Hu stepped forward to protect Tai Shici's old mother. The more a man like Tai Shici who was born from the grassroots, the more he knew the well-being and suffering of ordinary people, so when he saw that the Sima family did not hesitate to use the lives of ordinary people as a cover for Wuyang City, he had the urge to infiltrate Chengdu City single-handedly and slaughter Sima Yi.

Not to mention, if it was Tai Shici more than ten years ago, he would really be able to do such a heroic thing. And once anyone is targeted by Tai Shici, it is estimated that it will be difficult to escape his deadly arrow.

Actually, it's not just Tai Shici who is so angry. Guan Ping, Wang Lu and the others also looked at Wuyang City with itchy teeth. These generals who are deeply influenced by Zhao Xing have always taken protecting the peace of ordinary people as their first responsibility, and the people who are like fish belly among other generals are all food and clothing in their eyes, and they have never been slack.

Of course, the most angry is Gan Ning. This sturdy man born in Shuzhong, although he was a little dissolute when he was a teenager, he has never done this kind of devached devotion. Back then, Jinfan Ganning was in Shuzhong, but he just slaughtered the officials of several counties and counties, wiped out a few black gangs along the river, and made himself a bigger local "bully force", but he never let his brothers attack the poor people at the bottom.

Seeing that the fathers and villagers in Shuzhong were so badly abused by the Sima family who was born in Hedong County, Gan Ning did not scold, and did not cry on the spot, but came straight to Tai Shici to ask for his life, saying that he was going to take a few brothers to sneak into Wuyang City to kill all the defenders, so that he had this evil breath in his heart.

Tai Shici himself actually had such crazy thoughts, but after all, he was already a figure as a marshal, so he naturally had to patiently and meticulously persuade Gan Ning to dispel this idea. After more than a year of getting along, Tai Shici and Gan Ning, a man in Shu, got along very well, and Gan Ning also proved King Pingxi's vicious vision and his super value with practical actions. Tai Shi Ci didn't want to see that when he was done, he let his vanguard generals have an accident.

In his letter to Tai Shici, Zhao Xing had agreed in principle to the plan that Gan Ning would be the commander of the Yizhou Army in the future.

However, sometimes Gan Ning is stubborn, and it is difficult for the three cows to pull it back. This time, although he expressed silence in front of Tai Shici and Li Ru, it did not mean that he really dispelled this crazy idea in his heart.

The idea of infiltrating Wuyang City to assassinate the main general of the Yizhou garrison and create chaos in the city seems crazy, but it is not impossible to succeed. Compared with Wang Lu and Guan Ping, Gan Ning has an advantage that others can't match, that is, his authentic identity as a Shudi.

Although the people on the earthen dam outside Wuyang City did not wait to see the army attacking Yizhou, if Gan Ning pretended to be an anti-water soldier and touched the Tucheng and used a pure Shu dialect, he could definitely impress the sympathy of these ordinary people. As long as there are the people on the earth city as a cover, Gan Ning can smoothly sneak into Wuyang City. After entering Wuyang City, Gan Ning could find a way to get a set of Yizhou soldiers' clothing, and then wait for the opportunity to get close to the guard's side and kill people.

With Gan Ning's personal martial arts to chase Tai Shici directly, he was able to withstand his life-fighting blow to the generals of Shuzhong, except for Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, it was really difficult to find a third person.

Gan Ning did it when he thought about it. After the night fell, Gan Ning selected dozens of soldiers who had already been selected from the original Yizhou troops who had been incorporated into the South Route Army to attack Yizhou, who had already been determined to follow him. Some of the relatives of these soldiers are on top of Tucheng at this moment, and I believe that even if they want to rescue their relatives, they will not do anything to fight against the water.

Gan Ning gathered these brothers who had been transferred from the Yizhou army together, and then spoke out what was in his heart, which was unanimously supported by everyone at that time. Several soldiers who watched their parents and sisters suffer at the head of the city vowed with tears that even if they died in Wuyang City, they would kill the generals who defended the city to avenge their families.

These Yizhou soldiers who are now following Gan Ning are basically Gan Ning's fellow villagers, and some of them were even touched by Gan Ning when they were wearing open crotch pants. They were the first to throw down their weapons in the Lagu Valley of Nanshan and take the initiative to express their sincerity to Gan Ning. The name "Jinfan Ganning" was a silent call to them far more trustworthy than the pale promises of the Sima family.

Unifying everyone's thoughts, Gan Ning mobilized a batch of the most powerful gunpowder from the dragon army, as well as small individual weapons such as crossbows and daggers, and then took dozens of brothers to touch the bottom of the earth city in the middle of the night.

Under the Tucheng, the Yizhou soldiers whispered to the people at the head of the city, and soon received a warm response. They threw a rope up to the top of the city, and then they were dragged by the people of the earthen city, and in a short time they climbed up the earthen city.

These honest people, when they heard that the soldiers who went to Tucheng were all soldiers brought by Yan Yan to the south to quell the rebellion some time ago, they were naturally convinced. The pure Shu accents of these soldiers can't deceive people, not to mention that there are a few family members who are already on Tucheng.

Under the cover of the common people, Gan Ning smoothly slipped into Wuyang City. On the third watch, Gan Ning and dozens of his brothers had successfully killed a group of soldiers patrolling the city, and threw all the corpses of these soldiers into a deep well. Of course, the clothes worn by these unlucky Yizhou soldiers were stripped naked by Gan Ning and them.

Gan Ning, who was dressed as a Yizhou soldier in the city, soon found the place where the Wuyang guards Meng Da and Chen Shi and others lived, and a heroic assassination operation immediately began.
