Great Wei Nengchen

From the 15th year of Jian'an to the first day of July, Xiao Yi led 660 athletes into the plank road of Ziwu Valley, preparing to go deep [-] miles alone, surprise attacking Nanzheng City, the old nest of the enemy, and breaking the myth of "Qinling four roads, Ziwu is king" !

But if you make up your mind, things will be difficult. Under the ruthless erosion of the years, the original wooden plank road has decayed, and there are only some stone holes, stone pillars, and stone piles left. People and horses cannot walk at all. There are countermeasures.

[-] Danyang soldiers were the vanguard. Besides the materials for the long-distance march, they also brought a lot of wooden stakes, planks, ropes, iron nails... and various construction tools. They used the leftover stone holes and pillars to re-lay a road. The plank road is used for the walking of the army.

The Danyang soldiers are all descendants of the mountains, and they are best at fighting in the mountains and jungles. They really climb mountains and ridges, like walking on flat ground, climbing trees, comparable to apes, and cliffs tens of feet high. They can climb up with bare hands and build a plank road. Of course it's not a problem!

Some people must ask, Ziwu Valley is 660 miles long, and how much paving materials can a mere [-] Danyang soldiers carry? Is it possible to cut down trees and lay plank roads at the same time, so when and what month can they reach the city of Nanzheng?

This is not a problem. Every time a section of plank road is laid, after the brigade passes, the people behind will dismantle the wooden piles and boards and pass them to the front for continued use. This repeated cycle will continue until they walk out of Meridian Valley. Although the process is a bit cumbersome , but it is the best way at present.

Some people must still ask, recycling paving materials, the problem of advancing has been solved, what about the matter of retreating, once the attack on Nanzheng City is not enough, wouldn't the 8000 troops have nowhere to retreat?

I'm sorry, Xiao Yi didn't think about the way out when the surprise army marched into Meridian Valley this time, either he succeeded in sneak attacking Nanzheng City and pacified the land of Hanzhong in one fell swoop, or he died on the battlefield and buried himself in the Qinling Mountains!

This method of self-cutting the back road can also stimulate the morale of the soldiers, fight bravely, and fight ten against one. War is a crazy thing. If it is not crazy, it is earth-shattering. How to win more with less and restrain a strong enemy?

Then again, although Xiao Yi is not afraid of life and death, he is also a little selfish, so he secretly left a way out, not for himself, but for his sons!

Before entering Meridian Valley, Xiao Yi privately confessed to Lang Zuo and Lang You that once he was defeated in Hanzhong, let them protect the four brothers Xiao Xuan, retreat into the Qinling Mountains, and then return to the camp of Meiwu, where they would also Arrangements were made accordingly.

The brothers of the wolf family grew up in a pack of wolves. Going deep into the mountains is like returning to their hometown. No one in the world can match their field combat skills. Even if thousands of troops pursue them, they can calmly deal with them. Comeback!

"Ah...Little Mingzi fell down, her body was smashed to pieces, it's so miserable, I'm afraid the corpse will be fed to wild beasts, woohoo!"

"Another one fell to his death. Everyone, be careful where you step. If you stumble, you will be hated forever, and you will never see your parents and wives again!"

"I have been fighting north and south for more than ten years, and I have never walked this kind of plank road. Is this also called a road? It is simply a bridge of Naihe!"

…………

Gossip less, the book is back to the main story. Although a lot of preparations have been made in advance, it is too dangerous to walk on the plank road. On the first day of entering Meridian Valley, there were several casualties:

Some soldiers had poor mental quality. Walking on the cliff, they felt dizzy, their hands and feet were weak, and they fell to pieces when they stumbled!

Some soldiers were unlucky and were blown away by a sudden strong wind, or were hit by falling rocks from the mountains, and their lives would return to hell!

There are also soldiers who were bitten by poisonous snakes and insects when they were resting on the way. Some of them were treated in time to save their lives, while others were helpless.

On the first day, the army advanced for more than 58 miles, and [-] soldiers were killed or injured, more than [-] mules and horses, and some supplies were lost!

The next day, the mountain became more and more steep, and they only advanced less than 32 miles. Fortunately, the soldiers raised their vigilance, and only [-] people were killed or injured.

On the third day, my luck turned a little better. I encountered a long section of Shiya Road. Although it was also rugged, it was still passable for people and horses, and I pushed forward for more than forty miles in one go.

…………

On the eighth day, the good luck seemed to be exhausted. It rained heavily day and night, and the soldiers were exhausted after continuous forced marches. Xiao Yi could only order to rest and wait for the rain to clear before marching!

"Long! -Long! -Long!"

"Crack! -crack! -crack!"

……

The sky was as black as the bottom of a cauldron, and lightning bolts shuttled back and forth, like dragons baring their teeth and claws. The sound of scorched thunder spread into the valley, and was amplified several times by the echo. The earth seemed to shake violently!

The bean-sized raindrops hit the stone wall, and quickly gathered into torrents, which swooped down from the top of the mountain into the gully, mixed with gravel, branches, dead leaves... and the corpses of some birds and animals, and disappeared after a few rolls.

The [-] soldiers are all hiding on a rocky road, and they work together to resist the divine power issued by the sky. In fact, they are no different from those shivering birds and beasts hiding under the cliff. Who is not afraid of the power of the sky?

The so-called Shiya Road was originally a natural ravine on the cliff. The ancients used the method of "fire and water attack" to forcibly carve out a road. It's also much safer!

"Be good, Cabbage, after the battle in the Southwest, the elder brother will choose a group of new concubines for you. The Shu horse and the Dian horse are petite, but they have great endurance. They must suit your taste!"

"Damn God, are you sincerely not letting me go to Ziwu Valley? I just want to go against the sky... Wei Wenchang, you are so lucky!"

Sitting cross-legged on the rocky road, Xiao Yi stretched out a middle finger to God, in exchange for a few rumbles of Jiao Lei, but there was no fear on his face, instead he aroused a competitive heart--I am the boss, and the sky is the second!

Deng Ai, Sun Shao, and the other members of the Xiao family hid under the stone edge on the left, wrapped in thick oilcloths, all trembling with fright, Zhao Yu and Dao Xiang carefully comforted them, their pretty faces were also pale, it can be seen They were also uneasy.

'Cabbage' lay on the right side of the stone path, neighing anxiously from time to time. It likes to gallop on the prairie, but it is not used to the bad weather in the southwest. Xiao Yi took out a wine gourd and fed it a few mouthfuls, and stroked its thick mane. Only then slowly quieted down.

"Da Sima is such a hero, he dared to stretch out his hand to scold the sky. To be honest, I want to scold the sky too. The weather is really terrible!"

"Da Sima is the reincarnation of the Greedy Wolf star king. He has countless blessings, and he is not stained with karma. It's okay to scold God a few times. How lucky you are, aren't you afraid of thunder?"

"It's true, he is the favorite of the emperor of heaven, and I am an ordinary person, how can we compare it with each other, but Da Sima mentioned Wei Yan just now, and said he is a blessed person, what does this mean?

For Xiao Yi's act of scolding the sky, the soldiers were all in admiration. People in this era enshrine the destiny of heaven, even the emperor calls himself the son of heaven, and only kowtows to pay tribute, he doesn't have the guts to point fingers at the sky and scold him!

However, the next two sentences made everyone puzzled. Wei Yan is Liu Bei's general. I heard that his martial arts and strategy are quite good, but what does it have to do with Ziwu Valley? Xiao Yi couldn't explain it, he could only sigh silently ...

In the original history, every time the Shu Han regime sent troops to the Northern Expedition, Wei Yan would propose to Zhuge Liang that he would lead 1 people to the Meridian Valley, of which [-] elite men and [-] would carry grain and grass, and they could reach the city of Chang'an in ten days, killing the Wei army by surprise. , the Guanzhong area will be swept away!

Facts have proved that with such roads, environment, and weather, let alone ten days, I am afraid that he will not be able to go out in a month. If Wei Yan implements the Meridian Valley plan and only takes ten days of food and grass to go to the expedition, Chang'an City has not seen it. Will the whole army be wiped out?

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang was cautious by nature, and he did not agree with Wei Yan's plan, which was tantamount to saving [-] soldiers and Wei Yan's life in disguise, so Xiao Yi said he was very lucky!

However, the failure of Wei Yan's Ziwu Valley strategy does not mean that Ziwu Valley cannot be reached. Xiao Yi wants to go against the sky and create a military miracle. The road is not for viewing, but for stepping on!

It rained heavily all night, but there was still no sign of stopping. Instead, it was getting bigger and bigger. Fortunately, the soldiers were well prepared, with dry food, drinking water, and oilcloths in place, so they didn't have to suffer from cold and hunger!

However, the space in Shiya Road is small, and it is very boring to sit in it. The bad weather around makes people feel depressed. Therefore, many people choose a game when they have nothing to do—play chess!

"Stinky chess players, who dares to fight a game with the young master?"

"If you kill a game, you can kill a game. I'm still afraid that you won't succeed, but you have to let me have a car!"

"Take the lead, jump the horse... to the pawn!"

Ever since Xiao Yi invented chess, this kind of game has spread. From the emperors and generals to the common people, everyone likes to fight a few rounds after dinner, fight wits and bravery on the chessboard, and enjoy the fun of commanding thousands of troops!

This is especially true for the generals in the army, who are 100% obsessed with chess, and some people carry chess pieces with them. It is said that there is a great way to use soldiers in it. If anyone can understand it thoroughly, he can become a famous general in the world!

Now there is no way to go up to the sky, no way to go down to the ground, and sitting on the stone path is boring, many soldiers took out the chessboard and chess pieces to play games to pass the time and relieve the pressure in their hearts, two people played chess, seven or eight people watched, Now everyone has something to do!

Some recruits didn’t have this kind of preparation. Xiao Xuan and Xiao Huang, the four little guys, were very jealous when they saw other people playing chess, and wanted to play a few games to relieve the pressure. Unfortunately, they didn’t bring chess pieces, and they didn’t mind borrowing chess pieces from others. Appropriate, after all, there are many people and few chess games, everyone is very boring...

However, there is a saying in Xiao's family: do it yourself, have enough food and clothing, be skilled, and don't ask for help in everything. A few children found a piece of wood from there, pulled out the small dagger at their waist, and began to carve chess pieces.

Chariots, horses, elephants, soldiers... The children of Xiao's family were very dexterous, and soon formed chess pieces one by one, but when they were about to finish their work, a big hand suddenly reached out and snatched their chess pieces away!

"Where did you find this piece of wood?"

A piece of hemlock is held in Xiao Yi's hands. This is one of the special trees in the Qinling Mountains. It grows relatively slowly, but its lifespan is extremely long. It can reach a height of more than fifteen feet. Five or six people hug each other. tall and straight!
