Chapter 314: Jin Ma Chao, Return to the Northwest

This is the first time that Liu Chan has personally set foot on the Qishan Road.

It is also the prime minister of Zhuge in this life, and he went west out of Qishan for the first time.

After going through battles and battles, Liu Chan, who has been very resolute in his mind, still can't help but feel a little fluctuating when he really walks on this tortuous mountain road with Zhuge Liang.

This road, the prime minister of that lifetime has been walking for the rest of his life, until he died on the road, and he never reached his destination.

I hope that the changes I have brought this time can make this hard-working prime minister have a different ending, and let the people in the land of China suffer less......

"Since the Meridian Valley strategy has many shortcomings, is it too risky to still ask Wen Chang to lead his troops to attack according to his thoughts?" Lao Liu, who led the army west out of Yangping Pass and stepped into Qishan Road, still looked a little uneasy.

Liu Chan looked very calm: "Father, General Wen Chang is good at everything, but he is too stubborn." If you don't really lead the troops out of the Meridian Valley this time, your heart will inevitably be depressed, and if you disobey the order at that time, it will not be beautiful. ”

Although Lao Liu is still alive now, it is unlikely that Wei Yan will make his own claims, but once he really disobeys the order, the consequences will inevitably be serious.

It's better to let him go for it himself, it's not a bad thing to hit a wall and suppress arrogance.

Lao Liu still felt that something was wrong: "If there is a loss, wouldn't it be a loss of a general for nothing?" ”

"The Northern Expedition is a weak fight against the strong, and casualties are inevitable, and my father and I are still like this, so who is the exception." Liu Chan was still calm, but he explained again, "Not to mention that it is also useful to go out of the Meridian Valley." ”

Lao Liu remembered the plan that his son said that day, and his heart was a little relieved: "I just hope that Wen Chang will not act recklessly." ”

"Your Majesty can rest assured." Zhuge Liang on the other side said with a smile, "Although Wen Chang is arrogant and likes to be cunning, he knows a lot about the art of war. If this fails, the plane will definitely be withdrawn.

"The prince's serial plan will definitely make Chen Cang Zhang He in a dilemma, and at that time, whether he divides his troops to the west or strictly guards Guanzhong, our army will benefit."

Lao Liu heard the prime minister say the same, so he really settled down, but immediately asked again: "Wudu and Yinping two counties, Cao Cao moved the households on a large scale back then, and there are already ten rooms and nine emptiness. Do you really need to divide your forces and take it down? ”

At that time, Cao Cao was afraid that Liu Bei would continue the Northern Expedition offensive, and after taking Wudu, he used the Di people to threaten Guanzhong, and relocated 50,000 Di people to Fufeng and Tianshui at one time.

This made the already small population of Wudu and Yinping even more desolate.

Although Liu Chan's plan had already been explained at the previous meeting, and he agreed to it, he couldn't help but mention it at this time.

Regarding Lao Liu's gradual chatter, Liu Chan secretly complained in his heart that a few words are troublesome when people are old.

But after all, he is also 60 people, and this Northern Expedition stud gambled, and some ink is understandable.

So he still said patiently: "Wudu County's Xiabi and Hechi are located in a rare basin between the mountains, although this place is not very large, but it is enough to train troops and be self-sufficient in this tuntian.

"If there is a force here, it can directly threaten Cao Wei's passage into Hanzhong. And if Guanzhong cannot be captured in one fell swoop in this battle, grain can also be transported from here through the Western Han Dynasty to reduce the consumption of the Northern Expedition......"

As for Yinping, Liu Chan, who had foreseen the outcome of Ji Han's annihilation, would not forget Deng Ai's smuggling of Yinping......

Since he has been reborn so far, how can he let Yin Ping be occupied by Cao Wei, leaving such a back door that can go down and directly enter Yizhou for Cao Wei?

Lao Liu didn't know these things, when he was fighting Hanzhong, he also asked Zhang Feitun to distinguish between the soldiers and the martial arts, and when he asked repeatedly at this time, he was obviously a little confused.

"What's more...... Wudu produces horses! Liu Chan said excitedly.

One of Cao Wei's horse farms was in Wudu, which was something he didn't know before.

After returning from Nanzhong, although Liu Chan practiced martial arts and studied every day in Chengdu, he seemed to have no ears to what was going on outside the window.

But the shadow guards scattered out, and the Zhao family's business, which is becoming larger and larger, seem to be his tentacles and eyes.

The shadow guards are small in number, but they can spy on secrets, complete some special tasks, and be loyal and trustworthy.

Although the Zhao firm cannot obtain any confidential information, it can easily know the customs and customs of various places, and the terrain and roads.

Especially under Liu Chan's instructions, all caravans that rely on the business name to go south and north must record in detail their business routes and what they have seen along the way, and then hand in the summary.

Although many of the caravans below don't even know why they are doing this......

So the matter of Wudu having a good horse naturally attracted Liu Chan's attention.

He also understood that in history, Uncle Zhuge defeated Wudu Yinping during the Third Northern Expedition, not just "casually" taking a no-man's land, as some people say, just to be able to reinstate himself.

In addition to the strategic value in the geographical sense, he must have also learned that Wudu had good horses through the previous Northern Expedition, so he would make this decision.

It's a pity that the original Ji Han never completed his strategic vision, even if he had a good horse, it was useless.

……

On this side, Lao Liu, Liu Chan, Zhuge Liang and others led the army to continue to march towards Qishan Fort, and on the other side, at this time, two groups of people and horses had already divided their troops into Wudu and Yinping.

In the basin where Wudu County is located and Hechi, a group of people and horses came from the east.

The leader of the generals has ape arms and a bee waist, and a handsome face, although he is still charming in middle age, and the mature and cold taste on his body has a dangerous attraction.

He was wearing a strange style of Xuan armor, and each piece of armor had a bulge on it, a bit like a "shriveled man" on a human body.

This man has a tall horse in his crotch, although he is old and no longer youthful and energetic, but his majestic fitness is still not comparable to ordinary inferior horses.

The horse had three signature special throwing guns hanging from its flanks, and at this time it was carrying its owner in small steps, and it seemed that it was at ease, and it was obvious that it had not yet exerted its strength.

The general also had about a hundred horsemen with him, followed by thousands of foot soldiers who ran to follow.

The riders behind him held high two large flags, one with "Han" and the other with "Horse", fluttering in the wind.

This general is naturally the general of the Han Hussars, the leader of Liangzhou Mu, the Houma of the Township and the Chaoma Mengqi.

As soon as Hanzhong was fighting, he and Zhang Fei, Wu Lan, Lei Tong and other generals had troops here.

It's a pity that Cao Xiu, who was known as the "Cao Family's Thousand Miles of Horses" at that time, saw through the feint attack plan, Wu Lan and Lei Tong were defeated, and he had to lead troops back to Hanzhong with Zhang Fei.

This retreat lost Wudu, and also lost the Wudu County Diren tribe that could have been used for himself.

Now that he is leading his troops back to his hometown, new hatred and old hatred, he Ma Mengqi has to settle accounts with Cao Wei!

The troops entered the basin, and the terrain began to flatten and open.

Ma Chao raised his gun in his hand: "Not far to the west, it is the river pool!" If you want to make a contribution, start by capturing this place and march! ”

Xiliang Jin Ma Chao is back again!
