Chapter 208: Mountain Path

"This is not a plan!" Zhang Xi immediately made a decision, denied Pang Tong's plan to die, and said, "Mr. Xiaozhi only traveled, he knew this way, Liu Xun is a city guard, and he has lived in Shu for a long time, how can he not know the geography here?!" There will be an ambush here. ”

What Zhang Xi said is not unreasonable, but Fa Zheng still has something to say.

"Yuan Chang doesn't know!" Fa Zheng stroked his beard, thought for a while, and then said, "This trail is a Chengdu trader, bypassing the checkpoint smuggling way, the government still doesn't know, Liu Xun Gongzi, he doesn't go out of Chengdu on weekdays, how do you know that there is such a trail." ”

Fa Zheng means that this road is actually a road for the wealthy families of Chengdu to bypass the tax collection checkpoint set up by Liu Zhang and smuggle goods to the south.

Liu Zhang doesn't know about smuggling, Liu Xun, a son-in-law, usually doesn't go out of Chengdu City, how can he know.

In this regard, Zhang Xi was slightly stunned, but immediately retorted, "Mr. Xiaozhi should not be careless. That Liu Xun, if he hadn't seen it in person, he would have known that he had such a ability to defend the city. Moreover, as a general, I don't know the time of the day, I don't know geography, how to defend the city?! Three, even if Liu Xun doesn't know, that Zhang Ren is also a famous general in Sichuan, doesn't even he know it?! ”

In this way, Fa Zheng is also a little vague.

The main reason is that Fa Zheng didn't find out that this Liu Xun actually had such the ability to defend the city.

It's not that you can defend the city by letting a brother come out, not to mention that he still blocked Liu Beijun's attack for a month.

Such a person, put it in any place, tout some, and call it "a famous general in Sichuan" is not too much.

So the question is, do such people really not even know the geography of their defensive areas?!

In this time and space, there is no "Zhang Song's picture", and Zhang Song has not even seen Liu Bei's face.

After all, Liu Bei was in Jiangxia when Zhang Song went to Jiangling to see Cao Cao, and when Liu Bei took the four counties of Jingnan, Zhou Yu was besieging Nanjun, Zhang Song had no chance to hook up with Liu Bei, and the two only exchanged a few letters at most, and Zhang Song would not send such an important map to Liu Bei by letter.

Therefore, Liu Bei himself is fighting away from home, and he relies on the help of Fa Zheng's humanoid map, can you expect the general who is good at guarding the opposite side to be less familiar with the local geography than you, the guest army?!

Not to mention Liu Xun and Zhang Ren to help.

Although Zhang Ren really stretched his hips in the first two battles, Zhang Ren, as Liu Zhang's confidant, has not been to guard anywhere over the years, even if his command ability is not good, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know that there is this way.

After Zhang Xi's three questions, Fa Zheng also flinched a little.

Although it is easy to use tricks, Fa Zheng is not an adventurer, and if the risk is too great, he will not stubbornly insist on his own opinions.

But Pang Tong was unwilling to back down.

"Yuan Chang is too worried!" Pang Tong stood up, shook his head and said, "We are waiting for a sneak attack, if the sneak attack fails, it will be retreated, and it will not be too damaging." If Liu Xun really knows this way, he must always divide his troops to guard, and we can also contain Liu Xun's troops from time to time, so that he will not dare to defend the north gate with all his might. If Liu Xun didn't know this way, wouldn't he be able to succeed in a battle?! ”

Pang Tong's meaning is to prepare with both hands.

If Liu Xun doesn't know this way, then let's rush over and raid the south gate of the city, and the battle will be successful.

If Liu Xun really knew this road, then he would definitely not be able to let this road be left empty, and he would definitely send someone to guard it, which would also achieve the purpose of dividing the troops.

If you have nothing to do to attack this trail, kill and injure Liu Xun's defenders, and force Liu Xun to continue to divide his troops to guard, then the attack on the north gate side can be smoother.

So, whether Liu Xun knows that there is this road or not, we must give it a try, maybe there will be an unexpected gain.

That's right, that's true. So you have to go to death?!

"But if Liu Xun secretly set up an ambush and ambushed us and other passing soldiers, what is it?!" Zhang Xi asked Pang Tong again and said.

Pang Tong was so surprised that he laughed.

After laughing, Pang Tong replied, "Yuan Chang, why do you say such unwise words?!" It is a sneak attack, and when it is done secretly, how can Liu Xun know when we will raise troops and when we will go to the trail, then Liu Xun will send troops to set up ambushes outside every day? ! ”

"But, it's a good job in the army."

Hawkers, forget it, don't talk about it.

Now that the two armies are fighting, I don't dare to say that there must be no detailed work, but at this time, the detailed work can only be mixed among the soldiers at most, knowing some things that the soldiers know, some real secrets, and the detailed work is also powerless.

To deceive the fine saku, it is actually very simple, you only need to act fast enough, and quickly enough, not to give the fine saku time to run back to report the news, and not to give the enemy time to react, it is enough.

There is no radio station in these years, and it is not that you can run back if you run, after all, the north gate is now a war zone, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at it, and if you want to go back to the city, you have to go over the mountains and detour, and go back from the east and west gates of the city, which is more time-consuming.

When these meticulous works really convey information to Liu Xun's ears, and when Liu Xun reacts again, I'm afraid that Liu Beijun will already be on that trail and mountain road, and he will still be in ambush.

Thinking about it this way, Zhang Xi really can't imagine how Pang Tong in Romance was shot into a hedgehog can't be such an important sneak attack mission, so that all the soldiers below know about it, not to mention, he is still procrastinating and slowly marching into the army, right? !

This ability to prevent espionage is inevitably too poor

Zhang Xi was speechless for a while, but the second thing to do was to ask Pang Tong not to take risks, even if he wanted to take risks, he didn't go by himself, there were generals in the army, why should he lead the troops in person with a strategist.

Then Pang Tong wondered, when did I say I was going to go by myself?!

What position and what to do, Pang Tong still doesn't feel that he has the ability to lead troops independently, even if Pang Tong thinks he has it, Liu Bei will not agree.

Pang Tong has never led troops alone, even if he wants to let someone who scheming and change power lead the troops, it should be Zhang Xi, a person who can be civil and martial, and has experience in leading troops, and he will not send Pang Tong at all.

So, this matter has to fall on Zhang Xi's head in the end.

Liu Bei asked Zhang Xi to lead 5,000 soldiers to explore the path of the trail, and if he was not prepared, Zhang Xi chose the opportunity to pass the trail and attack the south gate of the city.

But if you're on guard, don't fall in love with the war, just retreat quickly.

Zhang Xi suddenly became numb. Is this the rhythm that is going to make me shot like a hedgehog?!

But this is a military order, Liu Bei has already given the order, Zhang Xi has no choice, he must go.

Even Liu Bei, just in case, not only sent Kou Feng and the second general of the sect to Zhang Xi to use, but also lent Zhang Xi his mount, the BMW that Zhang Xi rode when he was welcoming his relatives, very intimately.

It is said that this horse has a good distance and runs fast, and if he really encounters an ambush, Zhang Xi can also escape quickly.

But Zhang Xi always felt that the entire buff was already stacked.

After repeated observation, it was confirmed that this horse had no tear troughs, and there was no difference between it and ordinary military horses, and it was not very much like a conspicuous target, so Zhang Xi was a little relieved.

Then, the deployment of troops began.

The 5,000 soldiers and horses are not a small number, and it is impossible not to attract the attention of the army when they are mobilized, so Zhang Xi must quickly complete the transfer of troops and then quickly hit the road, so as not to give the army time to react.

Fortunately, Liu Bei has already helped Zhang Xi solve this problem.

Kou Feng now has 5,000 soldiers and horses in his headquarters, all of which are transferred to Zhang Xi for use, and there is no need for Zhang Xi to gather people everywhere, and the back and forth transfer is noticeable.

As for Zhang Xi, he was not in a hurry to send troops immediately, but made some preparations first.

First of all, Zhang Xi asked Kou Feng's 5,000 soldiers and horses to go out of the camp three times in a row, not to march, but to cut down trees and build siege equipment.

On the one hand, it is to paralyze Liu Xun's meticulous work in Liu Beijun, and on the other hand, he also gets himself something to save his life by the way.

After that, I asked the old general Huang Zhong to give an order in the army led by him, saying that he would prepare, and that there would be a military order to convey it ten days later to attract Liu Xun's attention.

In the end, Zhang Xi once again dispatched Kou Feng's men and horses out of the camp in the name of cutting wood to build siege equipment, and after quickly assembling, he took his own life-saving tools and went straight to the mountain path that Fa Zheng said.

And then bar. Zhang Xi felt that Pang Tong's idea was really a bit of a trick.

Zhang Xi did not encounter any ambushes on the mountain trail, but encountered a camp under the road, as well as many arrow towers standing on the mountain rock cliffs.

Facts have proved that Liu Xun, as a qualified guard, does know that there is such a way, and he is indeed prepared.

But it is impossible for Liu Xun to know when Liu Beijun will discover this path, and it is impossible to arrange ambushes here at all times, so the easiest way is to set up a walled city and defend himself according to the road.

But Liu Xun is not strong enough after all, and the village is only a small camp according to the road, which can accommodate up to 500 people, but those arrow towers on the rocks on the surrounding mountain walls are more annoying.

These arrow towers are not large, each can accommodate up to five to ten people, but the arrow towers are relatively dense, and there is an arrow tower every one or two hundred steps.

These arrow towers are all at a high place, and there is no decent passage connection at all, it is all up to people to climb up and hold on, and there is no way to attack these arrow towers.

These arrow towers are basically only him shooting you, not you.

And if someone wants to go to the south gate of the city through this path, it is basically the same as the tower defense game in later generations, and they must first break through the arrow rain net.

After all, the mountain road is a small road, and it is impossible for the army to pass through the same way as the flat ground.

The mountain road is narrow, lined up along the mountain road, and only four or five people can pass side by side, so although the number of people stationed in this arrow rain net is not much, it is enough in this terrain.

Not to mention, people are still in the middle of the mountain road.

If you want to attack the south gate through the mountain road, you must first break through the arrow rain net, and then you have to break through the camp in the middle of the mountain road, otherwise you can't get through at all, you can only be passively blocked in the mountain road and suffer arrows, causing damage in vain.

This is much more useful than sending people to ambush.

Generally speaking, when encountering such a situation, Zhang Xi should have chosen to retreat immediately, but Zhang Xi took a closer look at the width of this mountain road, and then thought about the "life-saving artifact" he brought.

Of course, Zhang Xi didn't want to take the lead in the fight, after all, if his force value was put in the game, he might not even be forty, and it would be brainless to run and charge.

But didn't he bring 5,000 people, and more importantly, Zhang Xi also asked people to make a lot of "life-saving artifacts".

Therefore, on the one hand, Zhang Xi sent someone to report to the Liu Bei group in the rear, explained his current situation, and asked Liu Bei's military camp to make more "life-saving artifacts" and send them over, and on the other hand, he began to use the "life-saving artifact" to arm the five hundred soldiers of the front army.

This mountain road is not impossible to pass.
