Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 120 Set the battlefield

As one of the commanders-in-chief of Jiangdong Shanyue Zong who can leave his name in history, Zu Lang naturally did not earn his name in vain.

Although he created a force of [-] to [-] this time, he divided his troops very smartly. With the help of the Shanyue bandits' familiarity with the mountains, the Zulang Shanyue bandits can hide behind the mountains at any time after the division. In China, it appears in various villages at any time.

Although generally speaking, the direction of the Zulang Mountain Yue bandits is heading towards Lingyang County, but no one can tell whether the Shanyue bandits who occasionally appear in the sight of the big and small families in Lingyang County are Zu Lang's main army. Sure.

Therefore, the news that the Lu family, Qian family, Li family and other families in Lingyang County reached Zhu Wei seems to be a bit messy. It will be said that Zu Lang's army is still hundreds of miles away from Lingyang County. Hui also said that Zu Lang's army was only a day away from Lingyang County.

Zhu Wei felt that he could no longer get any useful information from these families, and the scouts Zhu Wei sent out seemed to be unable to get accurate information.

Although Zhu Wei could immediately see what they saw through the eyes of these scouts.

But Zulang’s Shanyue bandit soldiers were too numerous. One division of 6 to 2 people could form an army of several thousand people, or even an independent army of [-] to [-] people. If they could not break into the Shanyue bandits, Inside, how can one know whether the people inside are Zulang's main elite.

Fortunately, no matter how Zu Lang's army attacked, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan had already discussed countermeasures for this war.

After analyzing the terrain of Lingyang County and the surrounding Linxian County, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan felt that no matter where Zulang's bandits came to Lingyang County from, they could meet Zulang's attack at a place called Baicang River. Shan Yue Army.

Unless Zu Lang would really lead the army to go around the mountains for more than ten days, go around to the south of Lingyang County, and then pass through the territory of the Lu family, and even pass through the Wubao of the Lu family. Enter the hinterland of Lingyang County.

But if this is the case, as long as the Lu family sticks to Wubao for a day, Zhu Wei can lead troops to help.

Of course, in order to prevent this kind of accident from happening, Zhu Wei naturally put an eyeliner on Lu's side, so that Zhu Wei can also know the possible situation here at the first time.

However, Zhu Wei felt that even if Zu Lang sent people to sneak around in the mountains, he would not send the main army, at most one soldier and horse, to harass Lingyang County.

Although Zu Lang led the Shanyue bandit soldiers, which can be regarded as mountain troops, and they are better at marching among the mountains, but it is really not so easy to march in the barren mountains and mountains these days.

Imagine the ending of the Chinese Expeditionary Force crossing Savage Mountain during the Anti-Japanese War. 4 people entered the mountain, and only 8000 people came out in the end.

But now in the era of the Three Kingdoms, the barren mountains and wild ridges may not have the miasma of the Savage Mountains, but the roads in the mountains are also difficult to navigate, and with all kinds of beasts, even mountain people like Shanyue who live in the mountains all the year round are not really daring to come here. Walking in the mountains.

It can also be seen from the previous march of the Yue bandit soldiers in Zulang Mountain that they disappeared in some mountains for a day or two at most, and then appeared outside the mountains soon. It can be seen that they can't completely march in the mountains, they should walk It is also the mountain road they are familiar with.

You must know that Zu Lang's mountain bandit soldiers also need to eat and drink, and all kinds of supplies also need to be transported. The difficulty of logistics transport in the mountains is hundreds of times that of normal official roads.

Even if someone is unlucky, there will be a lot of loss on the road, and it is estimated that the unlucky person will eat a lot.

What's more, there are tens of thousands of Shanyue bandits now. If they want to march in the mountains for more than ten days, even if they carry dry food and hunt in the mountains, they will not be able to persist.

Therefore, Zhu Wei is not worried that Zu Lang will really take a detour in the mountains and wilderness, bypassing the Baicang River, the battlefield he and Wang Yuyan chose, but the Baicang River is also very long, so he still needs to find a way to attract Zu Lang's mountain bandit army to Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan. Choose the battlefield to fight.

For this reason, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan have already sent people to Baicang River to make some preparations. The [-] vanguard troops led by Ling Cao were also ordered to find Zulang's army.

It's a pity that finding Zu Lang's army still feels like luck.

However, it's up to man to plan, and God to make things happen. Anyway, after Ling Cao's two thousand vanguards set off, Zhu Wei also set off with the army to the chosen direction of the Baicanghe battlefield.

Except for the 1 vanguard led by Ling Cao who set out first, Zhu Wei's combined army also consisted of 5000 main soldiers, more than 1000 auxiliary soldiers, and more than [-] chariot soldiers. Okay, but I can't see the edge from the beginning to the end.

In addition to the people who were watching the flag sacrifice ceremony in Lingyang County, many people along the way also saw this army and knew that it was going to fight against Zu Lang's imperial army. The hearts of the people in Lingyang County were finally at ease. However, the people who originally planned to run away to the county to avoid misfortune had the intention of staying at home again.

But no one knows whether this young master Zhu Wei, who has been quite famous recently, will be able to repel Zu Lang's tens of thousands of bandit soldiers.

Well, no matter what the people of Lingyang County think, even Zhu Wei is commanding so many troops for the first time, and he feels a little emotional in his heart.

When the army moved, it covered the sky and covered the earth.

Zhu Wei really saw how large an army of nearly [-] was. As the commander-in-chief of the whole army, Zhu Wei felt a sense of superiority in his heart.

Now Zhu Wei couldn't help thinking about what it would be like in history when Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops marched northward to Jingzhou, would it feel like a moving city?

Anyway, now that Zhu Wei has nearly [-] soldiers and horses, he can't see the edge at a glance. This is a feeling that Zhu Wei could never experience in TV and movies before.

Of course, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan, as the commanders of the troops dispatched this time, are regarded as Confucian generals, so the two did not drive on horseback, but sat together in a carriage pulled by two war horses.

The walls around the carriage can be opened, and the seat inside the carriage is more than two meters high, like a small platform, allowing Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan to see the soldiers marching around from a distance.

On the left side of the carriage that Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan were riding in was Mu Lan riding a war horse and holding a long lance with a red tassel, surrounded by a thousand newly recruited personal guards.

Now Zhu Wei's army formation can be regarded as a few war horses. Zhu Wei really does not want his subordinates Mu Lan, Pang Yan, and Ling Cao to go on foot this time, so he deliberately asks for help from the powerful gentry in Lingyang County. I bought some war horses.

In addition to the generals assigned to Mulan, Pang Yan, and Ling Cao, these horses were also specially assigned to the messenger team, so that these soldiers who conveyed military orders back and forth could also ride on horses, so that military orders could be quickly conveyed to All departments of the army...
