Great Wei Nengchen

As soon as the cabin door was pushed open, Deng Ai rushed in, holding a letter bucket in his hand, with three feathers stuck on it, Xiao Yi hurriedly took it to watch, it really was good news, but bad news!

The good news is: Maliu's West Route Army conquered Baima Pass, beheaded the defending general Changyi, wiped out more than 1 enemy troops, and captured a lot of supplies. The entire Hanzhong Army was in turmoil!

In order to restore the situation on the western front, Zhang Lu mobilized 1 troops each from Nanzheng and Lecheng, and handed them over to his second brother Zhang Wei to guard Yangping Pass, which was the last line of defense to the west of Nanzheng City. The door is wide open!

Lecheng's terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are 7000 heavy troops guarding it. Xiao Yi led [-] people to sneak attack. He was not sure, but he didn't expect that half of the defenders would be transferred, and the chances of winning would be doubled. Maybe You can really change burning food into grabbing food!

The bad news is: the victory in the Battle of Baima Pass not only caused turmoil in the entire Hanzhong army, but also panicked people in Bashu. Liu Zhang, a cowardly guy, was bewitched by others to lure Liu Bei's army into Sichuan!

Since Xiao Yi's attack on Hanzhong, he was most worried about Liu Bei's army entering Sichuan. He didn't expect to be afraid of anything, so the situation in the southwest became more complicated, and the difficulty of pacifying it also increased several times.

The first move has been lost, and the annoyance is useless. I can only make a quick decision, take down Hanzhong County as soon as possible, and lead troops into the hinterland of Bashu before Liu Bei enters Chengdu. At least I must occupy Xiameng and Jiange to control the entry into Bashu Portal!

"I read what you wrote, the Golden Eagle's order:

First, let Hao Zhao and Wenpin from Jingzhou lead their troops to attack Jiangling City. They don't want to conquer the city, just guerrilla warfare from east to west and harassment day and night, so as to delay Liu Bei's entry into Sichuan and the strength of his troops!

Second, let Ma Liu attack Yangping Pass, and at the same time, separate a group of troops to infiltrate Xiameng and Jiange to find out the deployment of the Bashu defenders. It is best to instigate several defenders to pave the way for the army to enter Bashu!

Third, let Daniu and Gao Shun attack the Qinling defense line in the past few days, and firmly restrain Yang Ren and Yang Ang, so as not to divide their troops to rescue Lecheng and ruin our sneak attack plan! "

While Xiao Yi was dictating, Deng Ai took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and quickly wrote three orders. What he wrote was not the regular script popular in the late Han Dynasty, nor the official script, seal script, or bronze inscriptions, but a mess of ghostly drawn symbols, compared to Taoist symbols. Prophecy is even more difficult to understand!

This is a set of ciphers that Xiao Yi finally created based on ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign languages, and absorbed elements of religion, fantasy, and abstraction. Only his wife, son, apprentice, and a few confidant generals can write and read. Understand!

In addition, even if there are many wise men in the world, or there is another time traveler, it is impossible to understand the meaning. It is safe to use it to transmit military orders. Even if it falls into the hands of the enemy, the content will not be leaked at all!

"Doo-doo! - Chirp!"

…………

Deng Ai put the three secret orders into three small bamboo tubes, and whistled outside the cabin, summoning three golden eagles, tied the bamboo tubes to the golden eagles' thighs, covered them with feathers, and gave the order to take off. Order……

The three golden eagles spread their wings and soared into the sky, circled several times in the clouds, flew in different directions, and soon disappeared without a trace!

The terrain in Hanzhong is complicated, and the plank roads, mountain roads, and waterways are extremely difficult. If you use human power to convey military orders, it may not be delivered in ten days and a half months. It is easy to miss the military plane.

The golden eagle is the king of the air, known for its agility and strength, it can fly hundreds of miles in an hour, and no natural enemy can harm them, it is perfect for conveying military information, Xiao Yi can win every battle, and repeatedly seize the enemy's first place Machine, this is also one of the important reasons!

At the same time as the order was given, the fleet continued to sail upstream. At sunset, someone came to report: "We have arrived in Lecheng!"

Lecheng is located on the north bank of the Han River. It was originally a dead valley two or three miles from east to west and seven or eight miles from north to south. There are cliffs on three sides, which are difficult for smooth and steep apes to climb. There is no grass in the valley, and there are black rocks everywhere. Hanshui!

Because of the depth and width of the water, ships on the Han River often stop here to rest, sometimes dry their goods and trade with each other, gradually forming a trading market, and there are inns, restaurants, teahouses, brothels... The business is very good. !

After Zhang Lu took charge of Hanzhong, he invested a lot of manpower and material resources to build a city, warehouses, and a deep-water wharf here. First, he used the special geographical location to store various materials and supply the needs of the troops!

The second is to collect some tolls for the large and small ships that come and go, so as to enrich the treasury of Hanzhong, earn millions of dollars every year, and keep the traffic on the Han River, which can be said to serve multiple purposes!

"Damn it, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, unattainable, one side faces the water, there is a gate inside, there are many barriers inside, trenches, and [-] elite soldiers are stationed!

Whether it is a strong attack or a night attack, we probably don't have much chance of winning. No wonder Zhang Lu is so relieved that he hoarded hundreds of thousands of grain and grass here, but it is a good place for one man to guard the gate and ten thousand people not to open it! "

Taking advantage of the glow of the sunset, Xiao Yi carefully inspected the terrain of Le City, and couldn't help but frown. From a military point of view, Le City is well-defended and almost impeccable. Let alone 7000 people, even a [-]-strong army may not be able to break!

However, no matter how strong a city is, it still needs someone to defend it. Lecheng certainly has no flaws, but the defenders are hard to say... "Come on, please come over, Mr. Yang!"

"promise!"

Chapter 1482 Lecheng seizes food and grass ([-])

"The little one pays homage to Master Sima -- the meritorious deeds are so great that the world admires him!"

"Excuse me, tell me about the situation in Lecheng again, be sure to be detailed!"

"promise!"

Yang Bai was ordered to come, and he knelt down at the cabin door, and crawled in like a puppy, his head thumping against the board, his face full of obsequious smiles, once a person chooses to betray, there is no bottom line There is nothing to say!

After traveling this way, Yang Bai also figured it out. He was on Xiao Yi's "thief ship", and it was impossible to jump off. The way of the heavenly masters is to roll the nail board, put the oil pan, and Eviscerating bones and boiling oil... dealt with with ten torture methods.

Moreover, Xiao Yi had promised that as long as he sincerely surrendered, after Hanzhong was pacified, he would be rewarded with an official position as a servant, a luxurious mansion, and go to Xuchang to enjoy the glory and wealth... Comparing the two, a fool knows how to choose!

"Lecheng was originally a dead valley. Because it was close to the bank of the Han River, business travelers and boats kept coming and going, and gradually prospered. Ten years ago, Zhang Lu ordered the construction of the city, mobilized tens of thousands of people, and invited experts to design it. Woolen cloth!

First let the craftsmen excavate a large number of stone strips and stones in the valley to build the southern city wall. It is more than three feet high and one foot and two feet thick. , there is no dead angle at all!

There are three water gates below, leading the Han River to connect the inside and outside. Each gate has an internal and external gate, all of which are made of mixed iron and fine steel. The weight is more than seven or eight thousand catties.

The caves excavated in the valley are used as warehouses. They are extremely strong and have a suitable temperature. They are not afraid of fire, flooding, or insects and rats. The grain stored in them will not deteriorate for decades!

It's not that the villain is exaggerating, it's because Le City is as solid as a rock, and there are heavy troops stationed there. If Da Sima wants to lead the army in a surprise attack, the chances of winning are not great. It's better to retreat to Akasaka City, or make another good plan! "

…………

During the conversation, the Lou Fleet entered the port. There is a huge space inside. There are hundreds of ships moored, all of which are used to transport ordnance, food and grass. This place is under the jurisdiction of the Yang family brothers, so no one stepped forward to stop it. They all gave way to the waterway!

Taking this opportunity, Xiao Yi took a peek at the true face of Lecheng, and it turned out to be exactly as Yang Bai said, with iron walls and fortified defenses. There were groups of soldiers patrolling the walls, and the water gate was also guarded day and night, and there were hardly any loopholes!

"The one who guards Lecheng is Zhang Yu, tell me about this person's character, ability, and character!"

"promise!"

"There are three brothers in the Zhang family. Zhang Lu is calm and solid, Zhang Wei is strong and brave, and Zhang Gui is the youngest. He has been favored by his father and brothers since childhood, so it is inevitable that they are somewhat arrogant and self-willed. Think about the consequences!

This person's strategy, martial arts, and literary talents are mediocre, far inferior to the two elder brothers, but he has a wide range of hobbies, hunting, singing and dancing, fine wine, cockfighting... reading novels, almost all the nobles like, he likes almost all of them, and his energy is abnormal abundant.

In addition, the brothers of the Zhang family, the first-milk compatriots, have a very good relationship with each other. They never compete for power, but work together. Therefore, the internal affairs have been safe and sound for decades, which is very rare among the princes from all walks of life! "

Although Yang Bo is an idiot, he also has a little advantage, that is, he can read people's faces, figure out people's hearts, and has a hobby of spying on other people's whereabouts, so he knows the situation of all the people in Hanzhong like the back of his hand!

"You dude, you have an impatient personality. You can take advantage of this... Has Zhang Yu offended anyone in the Hanzhong Group?"

"some!"

"Just a few years ago, Zhang Gui had a conflict with General Yang Ren because of a Xiliang BMW. Finally, it was given to Yang Ren!

Afterwards, Zhang Hui was not convinced, and always looked for opportunities to provoke troubles. Yang Ren was also very hot-tempered, and he drew his sword at every turn. The two sides fought several times. The most serious one killed more than [-] people, injured more than [-] people, and burned down A street too!

One is a direct younger brother and the other is a general in the army. Zhang Lu has no way to mediate, so he has to separate the two to avoid further conflicts...Look at the port. Come to get the armaments and food! "

While speaking, Yang Bai pointed towards the port, and sure enough, a convoy came in. There were [-] or [-] high-rise ships. Such a large number of ships showed that the front line of the Qinling Mountains was fiercely fought, and the consumption of armaments, food and grass was very high.

After the fleet docked, a group of warriors came down immediately and asked about Yang Bai's whereabouts. It seemed that they were eager to receive armaments, food and grass, and returned to the front line of the Qinling Mountains earlier, otherwise the Hanzhong army was short of supplies and could not stop Cao's attack. !

"Go and deal with it for now, but remember, not a grain of food or a piece of ordnance is allowed to be given to Yang Ren's fleet. If they ask why, they will all be blamed on Zhang Yu. Do you understand?"

"The villain understands, it must be perfect, hehe!"
