Chapter Ninety-Nine: Burning

In this way, it is already easy to pacify Hanzhong.

"Brother Ling, no matter what, you have to block Mao Xuan in the Golden Bull Road!" Liu Shengzhi said to Liu Jinling.

Although he didn't know that Wang Zhen had taken so much grain and grass, Liu Shengzhi knew that as long as Mao Xuan could be blocked in the Golden Bull Road, this Hanzhong County would be taken down.

"Don't worry about the assassination!" Liu Jinling's face did not move when he heard this, this way into Shu, there was no place for him at all, and he had already suffocated him half to death.

Seeing that whether it is the general who connived at the indulgence or the joining of the army by Wang Zhenxi, they have made great contributions.

Where else can he do it? Immediately he ordered the five hundred cavalry of his headquarters and headed towards the Golden Bull Road.

Although Shuzhong is sinister, the interior of this Hanzhong is flat, but it can be galloped on horseback.

Seeing Liu Jinling set off, Liu Sheng's heart was a little calm, and he immediately sent troops to attack other cities in Hanzhong County.

Hanzhong County originally had seven counties under its command, but now Fangling and Yunxian have been abandoned. There are also five counties of Nanzheng, Chenggu, Baozhong, Chuyang and Nanxiang. The population of the county is probably hundreds of thousands!

As long as this Hanzhong County is subdued, plus the hundreds of thousands of displaced people and mountain barbarians along the way into Hanzhong, there will be almost a million more people.

Connected to Xiangyang, it already has a population of nearly two million and a solid base. In addition, there are means of blast furnace steelmaking, and gunpowder bronze cannons. It is not difficult to seize Shu at all.

And then recuperate for a few years, with sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, these big killers. At most, two years will be enough to feed the soldiers.

When the time comes, whether it is the river going down the river, it will go straight down the left side of the river. Or take the plane out of Longnan. Enter the sky and find a way to capture Guanzhong. It's all a no-brainer!

But it's good to think about it. But looking at the drizzle in the sky, it was still drizzling. made Liu Shengzhi think that near Chengdu in Shuzhong, there was still a big trouble waiting for him......

Ma Hou with three thousand men. rushed towards Nanxiang County. According to the intelligence, there are not many defenders in Nanxiang County, and the expansion of Liu Shengzhi's men is too fast, and there is a shortage of manpower.

This Nanxiang County is one of the seven counties under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong County, in fact, the county jurisdiction of the Qin and Han dynasties was very large. It is much larger than the Hereafter.

Just like the land under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong County, it also includes Yun County and Fangling where Liu Sheng passed by. It's almost close to Wudang County.

This small county in Nanxiang is deep in the mountains. But on the side of the Danshui, it is not a Tongdu Dayi.

This Ma Hou is not a bad thing, with this 3,000 army, it is not a problem to take Nanxiang.

However, not long after the army camped in the winding mountain road at night, they heard the sound of rustling outside.

Such a sound makes people's hearts furry when they listen to it. That Ma Hou was strange in his heart, and he couldn't help but let people go out to check.

However. After a while, there was already a screaming voice: "Snake, there are so many poisonous snakes......"

Mahou was taken aback and walked out of his tent to check. As soon as I opened the tent door, I felt a cold and slippery feeling on my hands.

This made Ma Hou taken aback, and he subconsciously shook his hand and let go. The light of the fire reflected in the tent was a black viper. fell to the ground, and at this moment a snake formation was coiled. He hissed and looked at him.

Ma Hou was furious, and he was born as a homeless. What hasn't been eaten?

When I was hungry at that time, I was able to find a poisonous snake to cushion my stomach but I didn't know how happy it was.

He kicked out and kicked the snake away. The foot was so heavy that the snake flew out, stiff, but unable to move.

However, in the camp, there were screams one after another.

"Snakes, poisonous snakes...... A lot of poisonous snakes......"

The hairs on the back of the thick hemp also stood up, but when I saw the poisonous snake that kicked away, I don't know when, more poisonous snakes appeared, and the flowers were entangled together, making people's scalp tingle.

"What are you afraid of, it's just some poisonous snakes, and it's not that you haven't eaten it!" Ma Hou shouted: "Give me a fire to burn!"

He knows that his abilities are limited, if it weren't for the fact that Liu Shengzhi values the old relationship, where would he reuse him?

Now if he leads an army of 3,000 and is scared by poisonous snakes, then he doesn't have to be a man. I couldn't help but shout angrily!

So saying, he took out two torches from the tent, one in each hand, and burned the snake when he saw it.

In the midst of Ma Hou's roar, the exile army quickly calmed down.

Indeed, when they were in Luoyang, they had nothing. If you see such an edible poisonous snake, you don't know how kind it is.

At this moment, the brave heart of the whole life suddenly shouted, or with weapons or torches, to kill those poisonous snakes.

"Burn, burn me, set all the tents on fire......"

However, I didn't expect that there were more and more poisonous snakes, surging from everywhere. It is not known how many soldiers have been bitten by poisonous snakes.

Fortunately, some of these venomous snakes are highly venomous, and some are light. These armies of displaced people are not afraid of life and death. It's resistant.

However, the thick of the hemp was bitten by a poisonous snake a few times, and his body was faintly numb. For a while, his heart was shocked and angry, and he ordered loudly.

Flames burned in the darkness, and Ma Hou and his men retreated in panic.

In just three days, three counties of the five counties in Hanzhong have been taken down. There are still two places in Nanzheng and Nanxiang that have not been taken down, while the other three counties have all entered Liu Shengzhi's arms, and the situation is very good.

At this time, Liu Shengzhi was only worried about one thing, but he was rushed out of the Golden Bull Road by the army of Mao Xuan.

However, there has been no news of Taurus Road in the past few days. For Liu Shengzhi, no news is the best news!

Occupying a county town has a lot of things to deal with. At this time, Liu Shengzhi began to feel more and more that his subordinates were insufficient, especially the lack of internal affairs talents.

In the final analysis, Liu Shengzhi's rise is too fast, and in the land of Xiangyang, most of the talents have already come out of the Huan family.

For Liu Shengzhi's current big stall, the talents under his command can be said to be stretched.

Especially after leaving some of them in Xiangyang and other places. For example, Liu Yu sat in Xiangyang, but Wang Yao also stayed in Xiangyang to deal with internal affairs.

And Bu Pengpeng and Gu Xin stayed in Wudang County. It was almost Liu Shengzhi's secret base there, where blast furnaces and artillery were secretly produced. If Shuzhong was not completely pacified, Liu Shengzhi would not have relocated them to Shu no matter what. (To be continued......)
