Chapter 436: Loose Horse Hooves

Greed arose in Yan Tong's heart, and he must do his part for this credit.

"Zhang Bai, Kong Ming, you two are now in control of the Kingdom of Shu. You should dedicate the country to the Sima clan as soon as possible. This is a great achievement. I will definitely ask for credit for you when the time comes. All three of you and I are the humerus of the teaching."

Zhang Bai and Zhuge Liang are both veterans in politics. When they heard Yan Tong's words, they cursed in their hearts for being shameless. It was obvious that this guy wanted to take the credit.

The two of them remained calm and agreed with each other in a tacit understanding.

Zhuge Liang also took the opportunity to say: "Now that the Sima family has not seized the power of Cao Wei, it is impossible for the Shu Kingdom to surrender to one family of the Sima family. In that case, it will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction among the entire Shu kingdom, and it will be a waste of all previous efforts. This is the time! We still need to invite Dong It’s up to the prince to give you advice.”

When Yan Tong heard this, he realized that this was indeed true. How could a dignified Shu Han bypass Cao Wei and directly surrender to a family?

So nodding yes.

When Zhang Bai saw Zhuge Liang's cleverness, he immediately added: "Now that the rebellion in Nanzhong has not subsided, and neither Shu Han nor Sun Quan is obeyed, wouldn't it seem that we are at the end of the road when we seek refuge with Wei? Why don't we wait until we have eliminated the rebels? The scenery has returned, and this great contribution is not in vain."

When Yan Tong heard this, he agreed very much. This achievement was a rare good opportunity. He did not want to lose benefits because of the Nanzhong rebels.

"You two have thought carefully, I think it's okay, but how long will it take to wipe out the rebels in Nanzhong? It won't be beautiful as time goes by."

Zhang Bai and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and smiled.

Zhang Bai replied: "It has been arranged. The general attack will begin in September. The Shu Han has a total force of more than 3 troops and five spaceships. It is more than enough to deal with the more than [-] rebels in Nanzhong."

"Okay! That's it."

Zhang Bai settled the rear in Chengdu and hurried to the Irrawaddy River to convey the emperor's reward to Liu Ning and discuss war arrangements.

Seeing that there was another reward, Liu Ning also succeeded Zhang Bai's title of General Xingye.He was very happy to become a general again, feeling that his visit to the Han Dynasty was not in vain this time.

In excitement, he invited Zhang Bai to watch a new army he was training.

The two came to the riverside, and Zhang Bai saw a row of elephants, including males, females, and calves. There were hundreds of elephants.

There are more than 50 male elephants with tusks alone.

"Are you planning to join the Xiang Army?" Zhang Bai also became excited.

"It's a pity that there are still few bull elephants that can fight, so I was a little embarrassed to show you before." Although Liu Ning said it modestly, he was actually vaguely proud.

"No, this amount is enough." Zhang Bai suddenly said.

Liu Ning was stunned and replied: "Dozens of elephants charge together. Although it is huge, elephants are not easy to come by. One is damaged one after another. This number cannot be used as a normal attack."

But Zhang Bai said: "I have a strategy. In every battle, you only need to fight ten elephants to achieve miraculous results. General Liu, would you like to hear it?"

Liu Ning opened his eyes wide and immediately asked for advice.

The strategy Zhang Bai mentioned was to have a small number of elephants wear heavy armor and charge forward to resist the arrows. Behind the elephants were the rattan-armored bamboo infantrymen who formed a Roman tortoise-shell formation, while covering the elephants' flanks. While taking advantage of the situation, they attacked the local camp.

This method is actually the infant-tank coordination of later generations. Although it is not as powerful as a tank cluster charge, it is a very effective tactic when the number of tanks on our side is relatively small.

Liu Ning was shocked when she heard this, and she shouted: "Great idea!"

The two continued to discuss some specific details, and the infantry-elephant coordination strategy was finalized.

......

In September, the weather is still hot, but the cool breeze is starting to blow.

Outside Chengdu, Zhuge Liang swore an oath in public and set off with a high profile.

He was the main force along the way, with almost 2 horses, and was also equipped with a thousand "Pegasus" raised by Zhang Bai.

The whole army marched forward with drums beating, flags fluttering all the way, and their display of majesty was well known to everyone.

In the team, in addition to the commander-in-chief, Prime Minister Zhuge, there were also Yang Yi as the military advisor, Guan Xing as the forward, and Ma Di as the food and grass specialist.

Zhuge Liang's adopted son Zhuge Qiao is also on this journey, and he has been a little upset recently.

Zhuge Liang had a son, which was a big blow to Zhuge Qiao. It meant that Zhuge Liang's successor became Zhuge Zhan, and he was no longer himself.

Fortunately, friends such as Zhang Bai and Deng Liang have repeatedly comforted him and suggested that he get more military merit. After all, he is much older than Zhuge Zhan and can still influence political affairs with his merit.

Therefore, this time Zhuge Qiao was very active and invited himself to join Guan Xing's army. As a vanguard, he had to lead the way.

Zhuge Liang knows his thoughts. He is a time traveler. From movies and TV series, we can know all kinds of internal struggles in history.Zhuge Qiao's little thoughts seemed to him quite normal. He sympathized with Zhuge Qiao a little and agreed to his request on the spot.

Zhuge Qiao was overjoyed and felt that Zhuge Liang still valued him, so he happily came to Guan Xing's army and soon set off at the head.

This vanguard force has almost a thousand men and horses, all equipped with "Pegasus" and is highly maneuverable. Its mission is to detect the enemy as early as possible and clear out hidden dangers for the main force.

The other two groups, Ma Zhong and Deng Liang from Jiangzhou, also set off on time. Although the number of people on this group was small, the enemy troops were also weak and far away from the main battlefield. What was needed was to advance cautiously and win without making mistakes.

Only on Li Hui's route, because we were trapped in enemy territory, outnumbered and outnumbered, and it was a sneak attack, the future was unpredictable.

As for Zhang Bai, he started taking action early.

Ten days ago, the Sakir took off and has been patrolling near Dianchi Lake.The enemy's arrangements and various intelligences were continuously recorded and witnessed by Zhang Bai with his own eyes through the art of stars.

Near Dianchi Lake, once strong people from various tribes gather, there will be at least more than 3 people, but their distribution is uneven.

Half of them gathered near Dian Lake, while the other half was to the west of Dian Lake, hundreds of miles away.

Zhang Bai remembered historical records that after the Southern Expedition began, Yong Kai personally led troops to rescue Gaoding and confronted Zhuge Liang's main force, Jie Beishui.

Only then did Gao Ding and Yong Kai fight internally and Yong Kai was killed.

Therefore, he estimated that the people in the west might be from Yong Kai's group, and those near Dian Lake should be from Meng Huo's group.

According to the plan, Zhuge Liang's main force arrived at Beishui with a high profile, attracting Gaoding's main force and Yong Kai's troops, and then Zhang Bai and Li Hui attacked Meng Huo's troops from east to west and defeated Meng Huo's troops.

The East China Sea Fleet set off, and the names of these fleets were based on Zhang Bai's memory from his previous life.

In the fleet, there are five transport ships, four of which each carry more than 300 people, and a total of more than 1000 soldiers, all of whom are rattan infantry.

The other spaceship is dedicated to carrying food and fodder for logistics.

The fleet set off early and left Mi City earlier than Zhuge Liang left Chengdu.
