Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 699 Casual Details
On the second day after Xu You cut off Chen Xi's grain road, Zhuge Liang went to report to Chen Xi about his recent work. Of course, there were no major events during this period other than building fortifications everywhere. Chen Xi never thought of fighting Xu You in the field. The goal is to hold the opponent.

As for why he knew that the other party was Xu You, I can only say that Chen Xi guessed it based on some information. Although he was also a little worried about why Xu You disappeared inexplicably, it didn't affect Chen Xi. All he has to do is build Linyi.

Now that Chen Xi has given up on bringing his wife to Linyi, and the all-out war has begun, Chen Xi is not sure that he will not be harmed in the slightest, so Chen Xi decisively put an end to Chen Lan's coming to Linyi. What he has to think about now is six Finish the war a month ago, and then return to my hometown to wait for the child to be born.

"Is there anything else for Kong Ming?" After listening to the report, Chen Xi continued to review the military affairs but found that Zhuge Liang hadn't left yet, raised his head and asked in confusion.

"Our army has a batch of grain and grass delivered every three days, but the grain and grass escort team that arrived today did not have the following grain and grass escort team to scout the next day." Zhuge Liang hesitated and said.

"Oh, the rations have arrived, but there are no scouts from the second escort team?" Chen Xi raised his head and asked solemnly.

"Has this arriving grain and grass escort team ever given a message to the next escort team?" Chen Xi asked with a relieved expression as he recalled what had happened before.

"Never." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, last time Chen Xi withdrew one of the gatekeepers, and even wrote a letter to warn the soldiers who escorted the food and grass behind, so who would dare to mess around.

"Oh, how many days of food and grass does our army have?" Chen Xi asked.

"Originally 45 days of grain and grass, this batch of grain and grass escort troops sent another three days of grain and grass, a total of 48 days of grain and grass." Zhuge Liang said, Chen Xi's order to the grain and grass transport team was very dissatisfied in Zhuge Liang's opinion. Reliable, whoever transports grain only transports three days' worth of grain

"Send detectives to go along the official road to investigate, in groups of three, send a group in half an hour, if there is no reply after ten groups, then be prepared for someone to come from behind us, and send someone to Licheng by Jishui " Chen Xi raised his head and said.

"Is it so serious?" Zhuge Liang said in disbelief.

"It's nothing more than precautionary measures. Besides, Licheng is the second food route I have prepared. As for the seriousness, how should I put it? If the ten groups of scouts do not reply, it is basically certain that there is a problem behind us. "Chen Xi said indifferently, anyway, what happened in the rear is not his responsibility, as long as he is fine, someone will naturally solve the latter.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang was still puzzled, Chen Xi said helplessly, "Kong Ming, think carefully about how many days it will take for the grain and grass escorted here from Feicheng to arrive."

Zhuge Liang was stunned, and then realized instantly, "So if none of the ten groups of scouts come back, then the opponent is probably only a day's journey away from us at most."

"One day? How could it be possible to have such a long journey, to catch up with the dispatched baggage team, and to catch up with the two-day journey, I am afraid that the opponents are all cavalry, plus the time wasted by scouting cavalry, the distance We only have three hours to attack at most." Chen Xi shrugged and said.

"It seems that you have been focusing on Miss Huang recently, and you are a little confused." Chen Xi said helplessly, saying that there are female doctors in the army, so when Huang Yueying said that she wanted to stay and study, Chen Xi looked After a glance at Zhuge Liang, he agreed.

Of course, the responsibility of protecting Huang Yueying was given to Zhuge Liang, and it was called to enhance feelings. In fact, Chen Xi just took a fancy to Huang Yueying's manufacturing ability against the sky. After a dozen strong crossbows, they were made abruptly.

Although there are still problems with accuracy and range, it is undeniable that this person is really a genius. Maybe her mechanical talent has surpassed ordinary people's imagination. As for the strength of the material, there is no problem. Chen Xi has already equipped her with a More than a dozen soldiers with internal energy are used to warm and nourish materials.

Zhuge Liang pouted, he was indeed a little absent-minded, but more because he had never been exposed to this kind of planning method.

Just like Guo Jia’s distribution of reconnaissance cavalry according to the degree, Chen Xi’s grain transportation time has already been ordered to die. In fact, Chen Xi’s camp is not very short of food. At the beginning of the month, 45 days of food will be delivered directly. Check once a month.

As for the transportation of grain every three days, Chen Xi just wanted to prevent someone from robbing his grain road.

From Feicheng to Chen Xi's Dazhai, it only takes three days for the cavalry with one man and one horse in the formation system, but it takes five days to escort the grain. Chen Xi's order to the Feicheng Military Supply is to send out a wave of grain every three days, and the second wave of grain will be sent out. On the way, you need to send a scout to the previous wave every day.

In this way, if someone steals his back route, Chen Xi can be prepared. After all, the reconnaissance cavalry is fast, and the luggage is slow. Just catch up.

In this way, the first wave of luggage team arrived, but the scouts did not arrive. There are only two possibilities. One is that the scouts are gone, and the other is that the luggage team is gone. After thinking about it, just get ready to fight, it's not a problem.

Having said that, after Zhuge Liang figured out what was going on, he felt that Chen Xi only transported food for three days at a time was purely for fun. Important, important arrive on time.

"However, should we just let the other party stay behind us and just stick to the camp?" Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Xi and suggested, after all, he is still a little too young now, and he really has no experience on the battlefield.

"I don't know the strength of the opponent. After all, half of Dongping is not ours. As for the rear, Wenhe and Wenru have waited for so long and made so many preparations. I really thought it was a joke, so just stay obediently. Anyway, our main task is to nail it here." Chen Xi said nonchalantly, that the opponent should be able to use whatever tricks he has.

"I don't doubt that you have plans, but I am worried about the Yellow River and Jishui. If they guard those two places, we may be crucified here." Zhuge Liang pointed to Chiping and Jishui ferry.

"In fact, I deployed two troops in Chiping. I didn't deploy the Jishui Ferry, but there are water thieves in Jishui. This is the hidden food road I prepared in advance, so I played with Yuan Shao and went to give me the Fa Xiao came here straight away." Chen Xi nodded, and then directly prepared for someone to outflank him.

　I don’t know what to say, I always feel that it’s not good to write something here for a long time
