Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 496
Chapter 497: Qin Army Division
Deng Jun built fortifications in Jianshan wantonly, and put on a posture of defending, which made Bai Qi very embarrassed. Don't look at Bai Qi's disdain for Li Jing, but in his heart, he didn't mean to despise Li Jing at all. After all, there are many famous generals in the country of Deng, and it is definitely not easy for Li Jing to be one of the sixteen generals in the country where famous generals gather. Even if he is not as good as Yue Fei, Chang Yuchun, and Yang Yanzhao, he is definitely not as good as Murong Ke, Zhang Liao, People like Xue Rengui are far behind.

Bai Qi stayed alone in the big tent of the Chinese army, thinking hard about the countermeasures. At this time, Bai Chen came in from outside the tent and said to Bai Qi: "Taiwei, according to the report from the spies, the Jinwuwei and Longwuwei of the Deng Kingdom have been killed. They left the station and came west, presumably to reinforce Bashu, and according to the report from lurking in Wancheng, Deng Guo Hussar General Chang Yuchun has left Wancheng and went south to Jiangling."

"I didn't expect Deng Guo to move so fast. It seems that there is not much time left for us. We must take down Jianshan as soon as possible and enter the Chengdu Plain." Knowing that Deng Guo has sent reinforcements to Shu, Bai Qi frowned. Although the road in Shu is difficult, from Wancheng to Shu, it is Deng's territory all the way. Deng Jun will not encounter any resistance at all. No matter how slow it is, it will definitely be there in ten and a half months, which means In ten days and a half months, the Qin army not only had to conquer Jianshan, but at least had to reach the city of Chengdu. Not necessarily fruitful.

"Call all the generals and discuss matters in the big tent!" Bai Qi said.

"Here!" Bai Chen responded.

Soon, all the generals of the Qin army gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army, and Bai Qi said to everyone: "Everyone, the spies report that Deng Jun's reinforcements have already arrived in Shu, and they will arrive within a month, and our army is still there." Stop here at Jianshan, if Deng Jun arrives, then this entry into Shu will be a failure."

It doesn't take Bai Qi to tell everyone what it means when Deng Jun's reinforcements arrive, but now that Deng Jun is guarding Jianshan, with a posture of defending, no matter how conceited Qin Jun is, he can't guarantee that he can get it within a month. Let alone hit the city of Chengdu.

"Taiwei, but Li Jing and his Tianwu Guards are still guarding Jianshan Mountain. This is the biggest resistance for our army's southward advance. It is not easy to conquer Jianshan Mountain." Ma Sheng said with a sigh, conquering Jianshan Mountain, all this Everyone knows it, but Deng Jun has tens of thousands of people there, so you can't just go there if you want to.

Bai Qi said: "Of course this captain knows about it, but since we have already arrived, no matter how difficult it is, we have to get over it. We can't sit still, so our army must take action at this time."

"Then I don't know what the Taiwei's countermeasures are?" Bai Chen asked.

Bai Qi walked to the map, which was drawn by relying on the dictation of the Bashu people and the survey of the scouts after the Qin army entered Shu. It is not perfect, but it is already very good for the Qin army at this time. Bai Qi pointed at the crude map and said: "The biggest obstacle for our army now is Li Jing who is stationed in Jianshan, but we don't know the strength of Li Jing and his Tianwuwei. Given the favorable location, a rash attack will definitely not work, so in order to find out the reality of Jianshan Deng's army, this Taiwei plans to send a troop to Jianshan, and Meng Tong and Meng Li obey orders!"

"The last general is here!" Brothers Meng Tong and Meng Li heard Bai Qi calling out to them, and hurriedly stepped out and clapped their hands in response.

"Ben Taiwei ordered you two to lead [-] elites to attack Jianshan Mountain, but remember not to underestimate the enemy and rush forward. Li Jing is not a simple person. Don't be rash. After arriving at Jianshan Mountain, you can test Jianshan Mountain, but don't attack it by force. , if something cannot be done, we should preserve our strength and withdraw first." Bai Qi said.

"Here!" Meng Tong and Meng Li led the order, and then they left the tent of the Chinese army, summoned troops and horses to prepare to set off.

After Meng Tong and Meng Li left, Bai Qi said again: "The sword mountain is steep. If Deng Jun is determined to defend it, it will be difficult to take it in a short time, so we must delay the arrival of Deng Jun's reinforcements. Ma Sheng, Huang Xing, Zhang Fu listens to the order!"

"The last general is here!" Ma Sheng, Huang Xing, and Zhang Fu came out to respond.

"When Deng Jun enters Shu, whether it is by water or land, Yu Fucheng is the only way to go. Ben Taiwei ordered you to wait for three people to lead [-] elites to the east, and take Yu Fucheng before Deng Jun arrives. If Deng Jun has already arrived before you arrive, then the next best thing for you is to occupy Quren City to the west of Yufu City and block Deng Jun for at least a month, is that clear?" Bai Qi said.

After listening to Bai Qi's words, Ma Sheng, Huang Xing, and Zhang Fu all showed troubled expressions on their faces. After Bai Qi noticed it, he asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

The three of them looked at each other, and finally Ma Cheng said hesitantly: "Taiwei, both Yufu City and Quren City are hundreds of miles away from here, and there are rugged and difficult mountain roads along the way. If we fight all the way to the city guarded by the army, there is no way to arrive before Deng Jun, but if we bypass the city and take the trails in the mountains, it will be more difficult to march, and more importantly, our army is not familiar with Bashu. It is very difficult to reach Deng Jun ahead of Deng Jun."

It is really difficult to complete Bai Qi's mission. Deng Jun came from Jingxiang, no matter how difficult it is to walk, he will definitely reach Yufu City within half a month, but what about Qin Jun?Not only did he have to march hundreds of miles, but he also had to cross Deng Jun's territory, and Qin Jun was not familiar with the roads in Bashu at all. How could he arrive at Yufu City before Deng Jun?

Bai Qi also knew that this was a bit embarrassing for Ma Cheng, Huang Xing, and Zhang Fu, but now, he had no choice but to break through Jiameng Pass and enter Bashu with great difficulty. He couldn't be like this Going back in despair, not to mention that this time it is related to his political career, it is even more impossible to give up.

So Bai Qi said with a serious face: "Three generals, you need to know what entering Shu this time means to me, Daqin? Ben Taiwei also knows that this is too difficult for you, but in order to complete Daqin's Weiye also hopes that the three generals can overcome all difficulties. As for the difficulty of marching, the Taiwei has carefully selected some guides. These people are caravans that travel to and from Bashu and Jingxiang all the year round. Captain Ben believes that with them around, it won't be a big problem."

"Since the Taiwei has already made arrangements, he will definitely do his best, but are these Bashu caravans trustworthy?" Hearing that Bai Qi did not fail to consider their marching difficulties, Ma Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief, but Another question arises, are those caravans from Bashu trustworthy?You must know that they are the people of Deng Guo, what if they secretly put Qin Jun together?
"Don't worry, the three generals, the family members of these caravans have long been controlled by the Taiwei, and they will never dare to have half-hearted dissent." Bai Qi said.

Now Ma Cheng and the others felt relieved. Although difficulties still exist, with a guide, it is not impossible to reach Yufu City or Quren City before Deng Jun. So the three of them clasped their hands together and said: " Here!"

After seeing Ma Cheng and the others go down to order soldiers, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief. He had already done everything he could, and now everything depends on God's will.

After Ma Sheng and the others left, Bai Chen said to Bai Qi with a sad face: "Taiwei, the three generals Ma Sheng, Huang Xing, and Zhang Fu led 3 people away, so the strength of our army has been greatly weakened. It is even more difficult to conquer Jianshan, which is stationed by nearly 5 people." The 15 soldiers of the Qin army are already very reluctant to face Jianshan, which is stationed by tens of thousands of Deng troops, and now they have to allocate 3 people. Going to seize important places to stop Deng Guo's reinforcements, isn't this just adding difficulty to yourself?
Bai Qi smiled and said: "It's okay, I will send people back to Hanzhong, and order Li Jin and others to send [-] elite soldiers to the south to help in the battle. In addition, I will send a message to Chang'an, asking the king to send elites to Hanzhong. Everything is in the hands of the Taiwei. Under control, General Bai need not worry."

"Since the Taiwei is confident, the general can rest assured." Now that Bai Qi is so confident, what else can Bai Chen say?

On the other hand, brothers Meng Tong and Meng Li led [-] elite Qin troops and finally arrived outside Jianshan Mountain after a one-day march. The two saw that the Deng army was waiting in full force, and the Qin army had marched all the way, exhausted their physical strength. When he was young, he set up camp five miles away from Jianshan Mountain, planning to launch an attack tomorrow, but Deng Jun from Jianshan Mountain did not attack.

At this time, at the Jianshan Deng Army camp, Li Jing and others had just received the messenger from Wancheng. The messenger conveyed Deng Sheng's order to them, asking them to focus on preserving their strength, and said that the reinforcements were already entering. Shu is on the way, let them hold on until the arrival of reinforcements no matter what, now Li Jing and others are relieved, entering Shu from Wancheng, no matter how slow the reinforcements are, they will definitely arrive within a month. This relieved their pressure a lot, but soon someone came to report that a large number of Qin troops had arrived outside Jianshan Mountain and had already set up camp. Li Jing hurriedly sent all the generals to prepare for the battle.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, only Li Jing and Jia Xu were left. Jia Xu said to Li Jing, "General, since the reinforcements are on the way, I think that we can give up the plan we have made before. Just defend Jianshan and wait for the reinforcements to arrive. What's more, the roads in Jianshan are narrow. Even if the Qin army comes in, it will be difficult to wipe out the Qin army if it is ambushed by our army, and before that, our army will have to pay a huge amount. The casualties attracted the Qin army, which is contrary to the instructions of the king to let us preserve our strength."

Jia Xu is a person who is very good at saving his life. Although he is loyal to Deng Guo and is willing to fight to the death for Deng Guo, it does not mean that Jia Xu wants to die. The reason why he agreed with Li Jing's crazy approach before is because he did not know the reinforcements When will it arrive, that's why I chose this method of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred, but now the reinforcements can arrive within a month, so there is no need for this, just stick to the sword mountain. No matter how weak the Tianwu Guard is, it is still one of the elite of the Sixteen Guards of the Deng Kingdom. With tens of thousands of soldiers and horses and the steepness of the sword mountain, it is not a big problem to block the Qin army for a month.

Li Jing nodded. He is also a very cautious person. He would not choose to do such crazy things unless he had to. Now that the biggest pressure has been lifted, as long as he can bear it for a month, he can turn defeat into victory. Then Naturally, he would not do such desperate things, so he nodded and said: "What the military adviser said is true. If this is the case, then guard the Jianshan Fortress and wait for the reinforcements to arrive. I will take a look, I will Standing here to the death, what can Bai Qi do to me? If the Qin army wants Jianshan, it is absolutely impossible not to throw away half of the corpses!"

"The general is wise!" Jia Xu was also very happy to see that Li Jing was doing good.
