Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 348 Beiqu Camp
If a problem can't be solved for a while, put it on hold for a while.

This is Fei Qian's usual method in later generations. Although it seems to be evading, it is sometimes very effective.

Just like I often encounter that I can’t find something at home, the more I try to find it, the more I can’t find it, but if I sit down first, take a rest, drink a sip of water, have a meal, and then go to the toilet or something Yes, I flipped through it when I came back, and that thing appeared.

So Fei Qian couldn't understand why the Hedong Wei family had been targeting him all the time, so he put it down temporarily, because there were more important things waiting for him now.

Letting Du Yuan come to open up the camp first, although it is a little risky, but it is not too big, because Beiqu is already very close to Sansuke, so even if Qianghu comes, it is impossible to stay here for a long time, at most It's plundering and leaving, so if the action is fast enough, there is no problem.

Now it seems that Du Yuan has done a good job, and it is still quite good, especially the choice of the location of the Beiqu camp, it is simply wonderful.

Strictly speaking, Beiqu has not been reached here yet, and Feiqian doesn't know if the location of Beiqu County will be better than here, but for now, the location of this camp can really make the best of the location.

The Xinshui River flows through here, and it happens that there are remaining branches of the mountains above the river. The water flow is forced to go around the mountains, showing an "S" shape. The upper half of the "S" is relatively gentle, and the north Qu Camp is built in the upper half of the "S", because it is surrounded by water on three sides, so in fact there is only one direction for traffic.

From the perspective of the art of war, the Beiqu camp can truly be called a "majestic camp".The so-called "male camp" refers to the ones that have no weaknesses and are easy to defend but difficult to attack, while the opposite is the "female camp".

The river is turbulent, and because it flows around the mountain, it is quite difficult to attack from the side of the mountain. Only from the gentle side is a better way to attack, which limits the deployment of troops and makes the defenders Just focus on this aspect.

The wall of Beiqu Daying is made of local materials, using trees with a height of about four meters. After the branches and bark are scraped off, they are directly rammed deeply into the soil layer. River mud was pasted on it for fire prevention, and there was also a parapet on the wooden wall, and on the parapet, there were many sharpened wooden piles slanted outward...

Moreover, Du Yuan started digging trenches and building suspension bridges on this side of the camp, obviously preparing to divert water from the Xinshui River and add another protective measure to the camp. If this project is completed, it will probably make people Anyone leading an army loses most of their desire to force an attack.

Whether a camp is good or bad, in a small way, it will protect the soldiers from intrusion, and in a big way, it will even affect the victory or failure of the entire battle...

Du Yuan had already led some people to meet him, and stood respectfully on the left side of the road with his hands folded.

Fei Qian got off his horse, walked up to Du Yuan, and said, "Wen Zheng is suffering."

"For the lord to restore the great cause of Shangjun, Yuan'an dares to speak out." Du Yuan cupped his hands, and then saw Ma Yan beside Feiqian. Said, "...Could it be... Uncle Ma Shi?"

Ma Yan laughed, and said: "I heard your name when I was in the envoy's tent, but I didn't dare to confirm it. Now I look at it, it really is you! Haha, how is my brother from the Du family?"

Du Yuan's expression darkened, he greeted Ma Yan first, and then said in a low voice: "Xian Yan has passed away for many years..."

Ma Yan was stunned, then sighed, and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Fei Qian quickly changed the subject and asked Du Yuan, "How did Wenzheng choose this place? It's really wonderful."

Du Yuan's expression was gloomy again, and he cupped his hands and said: "When Xianyan was still alive, he had visited this place many times to investigate and wanted to build a dock here, but unfortunately, the county was in chaos at that time, and in the end it still couldn't be implemented..."

Fei Qian couldn't help being a little embarrassed, no matter how much he went around, he still couldn't get around, so he could only say: "Wen Zhengxiu is going to be sad, this move is in line with your father's wish, and he should be gratified."

Du Yuan nodded and thanked Fei Qian for his kindness.

Everyone was walking towards the camp, Ma Yan suddenly stopped, looked around, and frowned.

When Du Yuan saw it, he also stopped, and asked, "Uncle Shi, is there something wrong with the layout of the camp?"

Ma Yan said with a "hmm": "There is nothing wrong with Daying, but...my nephew...have you sent out scouts?"

Du Yuan's expression changed when he first came here. When he first came here, he still sent scouts to scout around. However, seeing that the construction of the camp was about to be completed in the past two days, most of his thoughts were put here. In order to have more manpower and speed up, Indeed, no scouts were sent...

When Ma Yan saw Du Yuan's expression, he understood. He hid his feet, turned around and went to arrange the scouts.

Du Yuan was very embarrassed, and was about to bow down to apologize immediately, but was held back by Fei Qian, who went to the big tent first.

No matter how you say it, Du Yuan worked very hard, and the manpower was not enough, so there is no reason to punish him without mentioning the merits.

After everyone entered the Chinese army camp, because of this unexpected episode, Fei Qian simply asked the soldiers to boil some water because of this unexpected episode, to quench their thirst and ease the awkward atmosphere.

In fact, Du Yuan's father is the Cong Cao of Shangjun, and he is not good at military affairs. Du Yuan is also young, and he probably has read some military books, but such trivial things are naturally not as good as Ma Yan's long-term People who are immersed in military affairs are old and spicy.

When the water was boiled, the soldiers stepped forward and poured it into bowls for everyone, and everyone drank it silently.

Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside the big tent, and everyone's hearts sank involuntarily.

"Report! 25 miles to the north of Daying, I met a Hu man scouting and cavalry!"

"Investigate again and report again!" Ma Yan was the first to react, and he is now the captain of Shangjun and one of the main responsible persons in the military, so he directly ordered.

The scouts went down.

"What?!" Du Yuan turned pale with shock, and broke out in cold sweat instantly, there really are barbarians!
The vast majority of Hu people are cavalry, so if you encounter Hu people scouting cavalry in 25 miles, it means that the Hu people have reached the range of attack!
"Chengyuan, Shuye, both of you, hurry up and deploy troops, reinforce the camp, and prepare to meet the enemy." Feiqian ordered immediately after a brief surprise.

Ma Yan and Huang Cheng solemnly took the order and left.

Du Yuan turned over and bowed down, and said in fear: "Yuan was negligent, please forgive me, my lord!"

"You have made merits in building the camp, but neglected to investigate the faults. This time, the merits and demerits will be equalized, but Wenzheng will not be so careless next time." Fei Qian stretched out his hand to support Du Yuan.

Du Yuan responded repeatedly, his entire back was already wet with sweat.

This can't be completely blamed on Du Yuan, after all, Du Yuan doesn't have enough troops, and the construction of the camp is relatively complicated. It's not bad that a person without much military experience can do this.

And even Fei Qian himself didn't expect the barbarians to come so fast, he couldn't help but rejoice that he arrived one step earlier, otherwise, relying on Du Yuan, the only few hundred people in the original, even if the camp site was selected again Well, under absolute power, there may be only one path left...

　Xuande fled to the mountains with his horse... Looking for a small road, he went to Xudu, but there was no food on the road, so he begged for food in the village.But everywhere, when they hear about Liu Yuzhou, they all kneel down and eat [coarse food]. [Suddenly went to stay at a house]... It was Liu An, the hunter... who couldn't find any wild game, so he killed his wife to eat it.Xuande said, "What kind of meat is this?" An said, "It's wolf meat."He stayed up all night until dawn, went to the backyard to fetch a horse, saw his wife killed under the kitchen, and cut off all the flesh on his arm.When Xuande asked, he knew it was his wife's flesh. He got on his horse and wanted to take Liu An away.An said: "My mother is here, so I can't travel far."... But Cao Jun also... said that he lost Peicheng, lost his second brother, and trapped the old and the young. Cao also shed tears.Not to mention the fact that Liu An killed his wife for food, so he ordered Sun Qian to give him a gift of a hundred taels of gold.
