Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1533 The Enemy of Hanshui
Li Hui and Zhang Yi were not the only ones who made money for the country, nor was it only the Han Dynasty. What's more, for Li Hui and Zhang Yi, this kind of behavior was not even a betrayal, because the Spring and Autumn Days stated that Is it not allowed to conduct business transactions with other princes?
So, and from another point of view, if you buy back the weapons you looked at, wouldn't it be equivalent to adding some soldiers to Liu Bei?

Of course, if Liu Bei can recruit private soldiers from various families...

As Fei Qian in Langzhong, he didn't have much energy to pay attention to Jiange at this time, because Liu Qi's troops in Badong seemed to have reached some agreement with Liu Bei after receiving the information from the scouts, and began to move along the Hanshui River. It threatened Nanchong and Langzhong.

As Fei Qian, who has experience in neutralizing Hanzhong, he naturally has his own way of dealing with the newly occupied areas. Military power must be given, otherwise it will easily cause disappointment and dissatisfaction among the newly surrendered generals, and it cannot be given too much. Otherwise, it is easy to produce various troubles.

Zhao Wei and Lei Tong were basically trapped in Langzhong by Fei Qian. On the one hand, they continued to offer rewards, and on the other hand, they called for every move every three days and every five days, brainwashing and appeasement, and Huang Quan took Zhao Wei and him. The two men, Huang Tong, met with big surnames from various places in Sichuan and Shu, and expressed that they would not touch the industries of Zhao Wei and Lei Tong. Even if you are anxious in your heart, there is nowhere to say that you are not coming.

However, since Lei Tong was in Langzhong and Nanchong had no guards now, Fei Qian could only let Xu Huang rush to Nanchong with [-] soldiers for the time being to defend.

On the banks of the Han River.

Liu Qi got out from the cabin, and stretched his waist facing the sun.

"I've seen you, son..." Kuai Qi had already got up, stood at the bow of the boat, and bowed to Liu Qi.Seeing Liu Qi's bleary-eyed look, Kuai Qi only felt a little funny in her heart.Kuai Qi is almost [-] this year, and has long passed the age of youth and lethargy, so she will not be like Liu Qi, who still yawns after waking up.

"I've lived on land for a long time, and it's my first time to board a ship. I'm somewhat uncomfortable..." Liu Qi yawned while covering his mouth, somewhat embarrassed.

Kuai Qi smiled, but she didn't expose Liu Qi's excuses.

Jingzhou has a navy, and the scale is not too small, but the problem is that Jingzhou's navy can't sail to Sichuan and Shu, and the ships that were near Yufu before are mostly scorpions, occasionally small boats, and the physique is not good enough. It's not as big as Jingzhou, and it's not bad as a transfer of food and grass for soldiers, but if it's a surface battle, it's somewhat choking.

But Kuai Qi has not been idle in Anhan Yufu these days. He used the Jingzhou soldiers to be familiar with the characteristics of the ships, let the artisans who accompanied the army take the lead, and recruited many Padang civilians. It is still feasible to modify and strengthen the ships, and temporarily build a fleet that still looks like it.

Of course, Kuai Qi didn't want to fight against any surface troops with Zhengxi soldiers. His plan was simple, but it was also very practical...

General Zhengxi Feiqian has no water army, let alone any surface ship troops, so why should he fight against General Zhengxi's soldiers on land?Along the Han River, you can invade Langzhong from the top, and attack Nanchong from the bottom. There are boats to transport the soldiers, and the soldiers will not be too tired. How much combat power is left after being dragged into a tired soldier?

Liu Qi also found Kuai Qi's strategy very attractive, so he followed along.In Liu Qi's mind, the winning rate this time should not be small, maybe he can gain some fame, and even if he goes back to Sichuan or back to Jingzhou, he can show off his achievements.

However, Kuai Qi still felt a little uneasy, so she emphasized again: "My lord, if the two armies are at war..."

"Understood, I understand," Liu Qi knew what Kuai Qi wanted to say when he heard it, "If the two armies are at war, I will stay in the ship and never disembark, and I can leave at any time!"

Kuai Qi smiled: "This is also for the safety of your son..."

"Don't worry..." Liu Qi took the hot soup handed over by the guard at the side, took a sip of it, and suddenly felt warmer on his body, "This battle, we are mostly intruding... If it is Liu Xuande's place..."

Kuai Qi also nodded, and looked into the distance, "If things cannot be violated, we can only temporarily retreat to Badong..." Kuai Qi also felt that Liu Bei could fight against General Zhengxi on the frontal battlefield. Some have no bottom.On the one hand, the main cavalry of Zhengxi is useless, and the pawns cannot be deployed in Sichuan. On the other hand, although Liu Bei controls Sichuan, he may not be able to completely command him when he first arrives, so each has its own problems. That's just a number of five or five.

Liu Qi muttered something vaguely, not quite clear, whether he was blaming Liu Bei, or expressing his dissatisfaction with the battle situation, and said after a while: "Are you almost in Nanchong?"

Kuai Qi nodded and said, "Exactly, after crossing this river bend, one has entered the realm of Nanchong..."

While the two were talking, suddenly a fast boat came from a distance, and several soldiers on the boat rowed vigorously, hitting layers of water splashes, "Report! The general of Nanchong is no longer Lei's family, but Xu's now!"

"Xu?" Liu Qi glanced at Kuai Qi.

Kuai Qi was also a little dazed.Under General Zhengxi, there is the Taishi family who is famous in Jizhou, there is the Zhao family who runs across Youbei, there is the Zhang family who specializes in raids, and there is the Wei family who is the general of Jinchuan. Where is this Xu family from?
After Xu Huang fought against Xianbei, he was basically in Longyou, so he didn't attract the attention of others. In addition, Liu Qi and others didn't pay as much attention to information sources as General Fei Qian of Zhengxi, so they should be listened to. It is said that after Nanchong changed the main general, he did not immediately form any concept...

"Young master, why don't you lead the front army and go to test it out..." Kuai Qi thought for a while, then said, "After finding out the truth of this person, we can make further calculations..."

Liu Qi thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Be careful."

Kuai Qi agreed, and then got off Liu Qi's boat, boarded the small boat, and then changed to the front boat, and then led the five boats ahead and the soldiers on the boat, and went forward.

Liu Qi watched Kuai Qi lead the soldiers away, and his little heart couldn't help beating.When I came here before, I didn't feel anything, but now I suddenly realized that the real battle was about to start, and my heart inevitably became nervous.

In Jingzhou, Liu Qi did not do well.

Many people say that Liu Qi is just an embroidered pillow, and that he can have the current status, not because Liu Qi is more capable, but because Liu Qi has a good father, and some people comment that Liu Qi's talent must be far inferior to his younger brother Liu Cong ...

"What's so great about being able to read a few scriptures..." Thinking of this matter, Liu Qi couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "Can reading be a living? Can you command an army? It's almost enough. How effective is it? Really..."

In fact, Liu Qi can't be completely blamed for this matter.

Not everyone is smart from an early age, able to resist all kinds of temptations, and then persevere to become a great person. Most people are ordinary, and what they grow up is mostly related to the environment.

When Liu Qi was still young, Liu Biao had not been a shepherd in Jingzhou, and he lived in the turbulent Luoyang. The incident failed to settle down for several years. As a Liu Biao without much foundation, he fluctuated up and down in the center of the storm, and finally took the route of Dong Zhuo, mixed up with the governor of Jingzhou, and then rode into Jingzhou alone. Consolidating the position, but also grasping military power, etc., how can there be time to take care of Liu Qi's education?

When Liu Biao felt that his career was relatively stable in a blink of an eye, he suddenly found out that his child had grown crookedly, what should he do?
scold.

If you can't scold me, just hit him.

Appreciation education?Encouraging culture?nonexistent.In the Han Dynasty, it was the right way to produce filial sons under the stick.

However, if Liu Qi is young, if he beats and scolds him, the child may be afraid of pain, so he will not dare to do some outrageous things, but the problem is that when Liu Biao starts to discipline Liu Qi, Liu Qi is already old and starts to have his own ideas , the skin is also thick, coupled with the pig raising strategy implemented by Cai's behind the scenes, what good effect can it have?

Ever since, when Liu Biao's beating and scolding effects were not good, Liu Qi became more and more disliked, but after all, he was his own kind... what, Old Wang next door, ahem, doesn't exist, so this time he went to Sichuan and Shu Come, more or less give Liu Qi the last chance to perform...

Liu Qi also had some beeps in his heart, so under Liu Bei's almost blatant betrayal, he still endured it, nothing more than he didn't want to return to Jingzhou in disgrace, and then become a foil for his younger brother Liu Cong.

This time, he went north with Kuai Qi and invaded Nanchong and Langzhong along the Han River. In fact, Liu Qi also had some expectations and dreams in his heart. After all, how can people have no dreams?
Although Liu Qi is the main general in name, in fact it was never Liu Qi who had an idea. More often than not, he nodded, nodded, and continued to nod. This time, it can be regarded as Liu Qi's first battle!
From the point of view of the strategic plan, Liu Qi can't find any faults in Kuai Qi's strategy. At present, all places are basically harvesting in autumn and invading the area of ​​Langzhong and Nanchong. Western troops exert pressure to create better opportunities for Liu Bei to attack, and it is convenient to advance and retreat. If it is not possible, you can also burn the Zhuanghe fields along the way, or even mountains and forests, to block the passage of the Western troops. It can be said that the initiative is all there. hands, and the safety factor is also very high.

This time, it will definitely succeed!

Liu Qi took a long breath, holding onto the side of the boat with both hands, full of confidence...

....................................

Xu Huang stood at the top of Nanchong City, somewhat angry.

Lei Tong had only left Nanchong for a few days, and these soldiers from Sichuan and Shu were already in disarray. If Xu Huang hadn't brought some elite troops to conquer the west, they might have been brought into Nanchong by Jingzhou soldiers!
And what makes Xu Huang even more dissatisfied is that the food convoy was attacked outside Nanchong before, and it was later found out that they came from the waterway. As a result, after so many days, the detection and defense of the waterway are almost the same. Equal to zero!
Block waterways?

No.

Set up a sentry tower?

Also no.

Xu Huang looked at the rolling hills in the distance, frowning in thought.Now that the traces of Jingzhou soldiers have been seen, it means that it is not far from the time when Jingzhou troops appear, but the problem is that there are no ships in Nanchong, or there are not enough ships that can be used to fight on the water.

Xu Huang only had some flat-bottomed boats that were usually used for ferrying people and carrying goods on hand. If the wind and waves were bigger, they would capsize, let alone fighting on the water.Then it is impossible to fight on the water, so we can only consider fighting on land.

Hanshui, in the Qin Dynasty, could pass directly to Hanzhong, but because of the earthquake, the terrain changed, and now, it is no longer as wide as it was in the Qin Dynasty, and the river has become a little winding, so slowly Huang began to cut down trees and build equipment to block the river at a bend of the Hanshui River near Nanchong.

For river blocking equipment, one method is like rejecting horses. It uses a thick wooden pile structure and nails it into the river bed. The bottom of the wooden pile is even nailed into the river bed for three meters. It is like a submerged reef, which is invisible on the water surface , when the boat passed by, it would either get stuck or crash into the bottom of the boat. Even if the other party wanted to destroy it, it would not be easy.This method is very sharp, but this method is time-consuming and requires high technical skills.

Another method is to block on the water surface, or use iron cables, or use tree branches, and it can be used after being placed down. It is easier to erect, but it is also easier to be cracked.

Because of time constraints, Xu Huang couldn't use a time-consuming method, so he could only ask his soldiers to cut down some big trees nearby, like barbed wire, and just get stuck at the bottom of the river.

Even though a relatively simple method is adopted, from cutting down trees, dragging them to the riverside, and then branching them, only keeping certain main branches, and then throwing them into the water, and preventing them from being directly swept away by the water flow, certain measures must be taken. The next one can only be erected after it is completely stuck on the river bed. It is not like the road surface at all, and you can ignore it if you drop it, so even if you speed up the progress, it cannot be completely completed immediately. Block waterways.

"If I had come to Nanchong a few days earlier, it wouldn't be so troublesome!" Xu Huang secretly sighed more than once, and became more and more dissatisfied with the soldiers from Sichuan and Shu who were originally in Nanchong, and even doubted whether these soldiers from Sichuan and Shu were in harmony with him. Why did the Jingzhou soldiers hook up, or why they were so passive and sabotage.

However, this is not the current focus now. Just when Xu Huang once again ordered the erection of the project to intercept the river, he saw the scouts who had been preset outside the city rushing towards him, "Report! General! There are soldiers from Jingzhou, take five The ship is coming! It has reached the rocky bend!"
