Chapter 039: Summoning the Meng Family's Army!

"Harvest grain and grass for a total of five million stones!"

When these words came out, all the generals opened their mouths in surprise.

"Five million stones!"

"That's enough for a million army to eat for a month."

"Are these people crazy?"

Zao Wou-Ki said with a smile on his face: "Not only that. A number of cattle and sheep were also found in the tents. ”

"A few gold sore pills and poison removal pills!"

"They're extremely well prepared!"

On the side, Zhao Wu listened to these with envy.

Gold sore medicine and poison pills, they don't have these things in the Xiangguan garrison.

Nowadays, it is difficult to count the number of troops in the border army of Liyang.

Seeing that Su Mo did not react, Zao Wou-Ki took out another parchment scroll and read: "A total of three million bows, crossbows and arrows have been seized. More than 500,000 are in a state to be repaired. ”

Zhao Wen exclaimed directly.

"Three million arrows?"

"What do they want to do?"

The attack on Xiangguan has consumed a large number of bows and arrows, and now there are still 3 million left.

That's enough for an army of 500,000 to start another big war.

This is far from the Yangbian Army's plan is by no means as simple as a Xiangguan.

Zao Wou-Ki paused and continued to speak: "Spears, armor, etc. are enough for 100,000 soldiers. ”

"There are 50,000 other war horses and more than 100,000 pack horses."

Hearing the 50,000 war horses, Zheng Wen's eyes turned red.

50,000 horses!

He only had 8,000 cavalry in Xiangguan.

These 50,000 horses were enough for him to assemble a cavalry of tens of thousands of people!

Su Mo also nodded with satisfaction when he heard the news.

Fifty thousand horses is good news.

On the side, Zheng Wen smiled and said, "General, I have already ordered someone to prepare a banquet, how about you first pick up the wind and wash the dust for your brothers?" ”

Su Mo looked at him and nodded.

During the banquet, everyone was staggered, so it was not lively.

When they woke up the next day, everyone rushed to the county guard to discuss what to do next.

Zheng Wen led 70,000 defenders of Xiangguan to surrender, which was bound to cause the wrath of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

At that time, Xiao Wutian, the king of Ding'an, would naturally come to crusade.

At this time, how to choose is quite important.

One of the lieutenants proposed.

"What if we give up Xiangguan and move the people to Tai'an City?"

"At that time, you can also discuss with the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Zao Wou-Ki looked like a fool.

Migrate people?

Does the Great Zhou Dynasty want the people? What you want is the important geographical location of Xiangguan!

Looking at Zao Wou-ki's eyes, the deputy general also seemed to realize that his remarks were a little stupid.

He was embarrassed to apologize to everyone.

Su Mo waved his hand and said without mind.

"It's okay!"

"People are meant to speak freely."

"Just say what you think."

On the side, the two brothers Zhao Wen and Zhao Wu said tentatively.

"What if we defend Xiangguan?"

"With natural hazards, it's not easy for them to attack in."

His words attracted the approval of the generals of Xiangguan.

Everyone has guarded Xiangguan for many years.

I have a deep affection for this place for a long time.

If they are asked to give up Xiangguan, everyone will be quite reluctant in their hearts.

Zhao Wuji thought for a while and said, "Xiangguan can't be guarded!" We are already understaffed. ”

"Now there is one more city, and the battle line stretches for hundreds of miles! There's no way to keep it! ”

When they heard this, everyone was silent.

Zao Wou-Ki's words sound cruel, but they are all true.

The border army under Su Mo was only more than 300,000.

While defending the Jade Gate Pass, while defending the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Cavalry should also be reserved in the border to defend the Xiongnu invasion.

If it is based on Xiangguan, it means that it will also border the Liyang Dynasty.

At the same time, it borders the four major dynasties, and no one can afford it.

If Su Mo had a million troops under his command, none of this would be a problem.

But the most difficult thing now is that there is a shortage of manpower, and there is no way to defend Xiangguan.

With only 70,000 defenders, it was impossible to hold it.

The Liyang Dynasty could send troops to attack at any time.

The two brothers Zhao Wen and Zhao Wu said with some reluctance: "The geographical location of Xiangguan is extremely important!" It's no worse than the Jade Gate Pass. ”

"Not only can the Liyang Dynasty be contained here, but it can also involve the Huns!"

"Just give up?"

His words made everyone hesitate.

The geographical location of Xiangguan is indeed very important.

Once they occupy this natural danger, the people of their Tai'an City will also have a way out.

In addition, it can be attacked and defended here.

It is indeed an extremely important strategic location.

Just as everyone was discussing how to choose, a systematic voice sounded in Su Mo's mind again.

"Please make the following choices!"

"Option one, defend Xiangguan, don't give up an inch of land, and reward 80,000 Mengjia troops!"

"Option two, give up Xiangguan, defend Tai'an City, and reward the great grandmaster for cultivation!"

Listening to the voice in his head, Su Mo did not hesitate at all.

directly chose to defend Xiangguan!

Although the cultivation of the Great Grandmaster is tempting, it is a chicken rib for him.

On the one hand, he has a supreme chaos body, and his cultivation has improved extremely quickly.

On the one hand, the Ordinary Grand Master was no match for him at all.

As for the higher-level Heavenly and Human Realm.

It is estimated that by the time these people make a move, he has already cultivated to the realm of a great grandmaster.

As for the 80,000 Mengjia army, it has a great background.

The elite troops under the command of the two brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian.

These 80,000 can block ten with one.

If it is formed into a military formation, it is even more invincible.

Now it is extremely suitable to guard the Hunan Pass.

When Su Mo made a choice, the deputy generals still didn't discuss the result.

Zhao Wuji looked at Su Mo and said, "General, you can make a decision." ”

"Whether to keep it or abandon you to make a decision!"

On the side, Zheng Wen and the others looked at Su Mo expectantly.

They very much hoped that Su Mo would say the sentence of guarding Xiangguan.

But intellectually.

Giving up Xiangguan is the easiest and most suitable choice.

This will not only avoid an excessively long battle line, but also avoid the embarrassing situation of being attacked on three sides.

After weighing, everyone felt that Su Mo should give up Xiangguan.

On the side, Zao Wou-Ki spoke: "General, just give up Xiangguan." ”

"The brethren agreed."

On the side, Zheng Wen lowered his head helplessly.

He was tempted to refuse.

However, Su Mochi's aid to Xiangguan has been benevolent and righteous.

There was no reason for him to go to Su Mo to forcibly guard Xiangguan.

For the people in Xiangguan City.

With the army leaving Xiangguan is also the best choice.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had abandoned them.

Once the Liyang Dynasty strikes again.

The people in Xiangguan City will become fish and meat on the board.

At that time.

That kind of life will be worse than death.

The people of Xiangguan will also understand the decisions they make.

Looking at everyone, Su Mo did not speak.

He meditated in his heart.

"Summon the Meng Army!"

As his voice fell, a herald soon ran outside the tent.

He said with a nervous look on his face and a frightened expression.
