Da Wei Chun

Chapter 542 Ming Xiu the plank road, secretly crossing Chencang

Dawn was breaking, and it was getting brighter outside the window.

Just after breakfast, Yuan Li lighted the lamp and carefully wiped the milk beads on her beard.

There was a sound of beetle leaves shaking outside the house, as if a general was rushing towards him.Yuan Li acted as if she had never heard of it, and her hand still did not stop.

The cronies in the room took two quick steps to welcome him out, and after a while, they went back again.

"Your Highness, it's time to fight!"

"So fast?"

Yuan Li frowned, as if she couldn't believe it, "Changyi is a dead man, how could Li Chengzhi cross the Weishui so easily?"

"It's not the Southern Army and the officers and soldiers, but the Southern Army and Hu Qi. It seems that there was a conflict because of rushing to the road. In a moment of urgency, they fought..."

"Hahaha……"

Yuan Li took pleasure in misfortune, "Did you see that? If it's a war, we can still have a bit of unity, but if we retreat, the ground will crumble into a mess, just like now..."

The confidant praised sincerely: "Your Highness has a wonderful plan, and I will admire it in the end!"

When the troops retreated from the Qianyuan City yesterday, Yuan Li asserted:

The three armies can win the commander, and the general can win the heart... Changyi's retreat is too hasty, and everyone knows his intention to stop fighting.
Therefore, the tens of thousands of troops were already in a state of defeat. From top to bottom, they all wished that they would have two more legs, for fear that they would run too slowly.

It's even more likely that before Li Chengzhi caught up, his own people would start fighting among themselves.

And after only one night, it actually came true...

"This is human nature, but anyone who has studied the art of war can understand it at a glance. Chang Yizhi is just forced by the situation and has to do so!"

Yuan Li sighed, "What did Li Chengzhi do, dare to call it a 'magic fortune'?"

I don't know where the news got out, and as of yesterday night, there were rumors in the camp that Li Chengzhi sent an envoy to threaten him with a secret, so that the Marquis of Chang County had to retreat.

Others called it ridiculous, but Yuan Li couldn't laugh at all, and even believed it was true.

If it wasn't for this reason, why did Changyi's soul tremble, not even daring to stay longer?

Guessing secretly, Yuan Li got up again with a thought, "Follow me to the city to have a look!"

The cronies promised repeatedly, and not long after, dozens of armored guards escorted Yuan Li out of the ear room and climbed onto the city wall.

Chencang is not only a county seat, but also a pass city, and Dashan Pass is under the rule of Liangzhou.

Guancheng is more than three miles wide and was built on the sunny slope of the valley road.The height of the city is nearly four feet, and there is a large slope of nearly two feet from the base of the city to the valley, which is extremely steep, so it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

And along the Chencang Road, about [-] miles to the southwest at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, is the equally famous Dasan Pass.

Liu Bang secretly pacified the Three Qin Dynasties, Cao Cao left the pass to conquer Zhanglu, and Kong Ming entered the pass to conquer the Central Plains. They all sent troops through this route, or fought fiercely at these two passes.

Since Yuan Wei captured Guanzhong, Chencang and Dashan Pass have been under the rule of Wei Jing, and Chen Yu has been heavily armed all the year round.For more than 100 years, it was the first time that the Confederate Army had set foot on this pass.

One misstep will cause eternal hatred... If you are dead, how will you see the ancestors of the Tuoba clan?
A tinge of regret arose in Yuan Li's heart, she sighed slightly, and leaned on the railing to look south.

There is what the subordinates call the internal conflict between the Southern Army and Hu Qi.

It should be that both sides had important generals arriving, so the fight came to an end, the soldiers were separated, and the vehicles blocking the road were all removed.

Yuan Li looked at it carefully, and a sly smile could not help but appear on the corner of her mouth.

After discussing with the county government last night, he went to look for Fuluo in a grand manner, and offered all the food, grass, soldiers and horses left in Guancheng.

Regardless of the rest, in the past few months, the two prefectures of Qin and Liang have been violently expropriated, almost scraping the land by three feet.Therefore, there are more than ten thousand stones in the grain and grass accumulated in Guanzhong. How can Fu Luo not be tempted?
Therefore, whenever Yuanli opened her mouth, Fu Luo responded to her request.Hao even said that after returning to Shudun City, he would make suggestions to Khan Fu Lianchou and give Yuan Li the title of Prince.

Yuan Li could only feel the indescribable irony: He is the prince, if he is only for a mere title, why would he oppose it?
Sending all these food, grass and luggage to Fu Luo is just a plan to deceive people's eyes and ears, to build plank roads, and to sneak through old warehouses.

In addition, one is that he does not want to take advantage of Chang Yizhi, an old thief, and the other is that he hopes to make the two parties feel suspicious and cause internal strife.

as predicted!

After staring at it for a while, Yuan Li was a little disappointed again: It seemed that both sides were very restrained and did not use weapons, but only relied on fists and kicks, so there were no casualties?
Pity……

He sighed secretly, and then asked in a deep voice: "How much has the grain, grass, luggage, etc. sent to Fu Luo been transported?"

How dare you say it?
The confidant blinked his eyelids: "Hu Qi's grain truck was stopped by the southern army just after passing through the pass city, and disputes arose after that, so even a single truck was not transported away..."

Haha ...

It's just that Changyi can tolerate what ordinary people can't, and it's not because of the quarrel between Fuluo and Fuluo.But the valley road is only so wide, and Fuluo has hundreds of carts of grain and grass alone.

If Hu Jun goes first, don't tell me it's the day. I'm afraid that if it takes two more days, the capital of Changyi will not be able to move.

This has to be because the weather is beautiful, it has been sunny for several days, and Hu Jun's grain trucks must not be damaged in the middle of the road, and the valley road cannot be blocked because of this.

If there is a slight mistake, I'm afraid it will be delayed for another day or two.

How can Li Chengzhi ignore this good opportunity, and Chang Yizhi dare to sit and wait for death?

There is a good show to watch...

Yuan Li smiled sinisterly, and waved her big sleeve: "It has been given to Fu Luo, so it has nothing to do with us, so just ignore it! Hmm... How about the north of the city, is there any movement of the officers and soldiers?"

The confidant glanced around and lowered his voice: "Since the midnight of last night, the Southern Army has demolished the pontoon bridge and blocked the river course, saying that the order of the Marquis of Fengchang County: In order to prevent spies from mixing in, no one is allowed to approach the river bank... so the subordinates also I don't know the military situation on the north bank."

Isn't it too late to make up for a dead sheep?

Chang Yizhi was obviously guarding against him, but Yuan Li didn't care: "It's okay, Chang Yizhi just doubts why I confronted him everywhere, so he just took precautions. And what should be done has already been done. If Li Chengzhi believes in me , there must be a response today..."

Will Li Chengzhi believe it? The cronies are very skeptical.

It is true that King Jiyin is famous and notorious, like a mouse crossing the street...

Just as he was thinking like this, several muffled sounds suddenly sounded in his ears, as if a war drum was beating somewhere.

The confidant was terrified, and when he turned his head, he saw the mighty West City, with nearly ten thousand riders heading west along the south bank of the Wei River.

Are they all Hu Qi?

Yuan Li narrowed her eyes slightly.

Could it be that Fu Luo knew that he couldn't compete with Changyi, so if he wanted to change his route to the west, pass through Qinzhou, cross Longshan and enter Songpan?

But now that Qinzhou has entered the hands of the army, there is no guarantee that Li Chengzhi will not give Longshan a rest by Chen Chongbing...

Yuan Li lowered her eyes and meditated, and several horsemen came galloping in the distance, until they reached the Guancheng.

"Your Highness, the leader Yu sent his confidants here, claiming that he has a message for His Highness!"

What does Yu Zhong want to do?
Yuan Li frowned: "Speak!"

"At five o'clock in the morning, scouts by the river came to report that there seemed to be a cavalry army dispatched from the Wei camp in the north of the bank.

After dawn, the scouts found out that Wei Jun had more than [-] light cavalry, and headed west along the north bank.And they marched very fast, in just one hour, they marched for nearly forty miles... The scouts also said that the leading general should be Yuan Zhi, and the Cui character flag was set up, which should be Cui Zuchi, the prefect of Longxi..."

Just listening to the first half of the sentence, Yuan Li was still a little puzzled, but when she heard Cui Zuzhi, she felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and Yuan Li felt dark in front of her eyes, and almost fell to the city.

More than ten thousand Qingqi rushed to the west?
Cui Zuchi, the prefect of Longxi?
Li Chengzhi clearly wanted to run to Longshan Road, cross the Jialing River from Liangquan County, and then detour to the southern foot of Qinling Mountains, blocking Changyizhi in Chencang Road.

The reason why there is Cui Zuzhi, the prefect of Longxi, is to persuade the guards of Wudu and Baima to surrender.

And even if Yu Zhong coaxed himself, he replaced the guard of Wudu with Gongsun Zhi, who was loyal to him.But with the power of thunder, how long can the generals and guards under Gongsun Zhi last?
No wonder Hu Jun was so anxious?
If Li Chengzhi occupies Wudu and Baima, it will block Fu Luoxi's way to advance.He had no choice but to flee to Hanzhong with Changyizhi, and then to Tuyuhun via Chengdu.

This person is more than a thousand miles away?
The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky.Volomo said that he would take away more than ten thousand stones, grain and grass, and most of the nearly thirty thousand horses would be used as rations for soldiers...

What Yuan Li was angry with was not that her plan to sow dissension was ruined, but that Li Chengzhi turned a deaf ear to her in-laws who were so close at hand, and did not hesitate to run for hundreds of miles. ?

Even a fool can guess: it's just because Li Chengzhi can't trust him, Yuan Li.

Good thief, bullying too much!

For a moment, Yuan Li felt that all thoughts were lost.

"Boom!"

There was another tremor next to my ear, this time it was very close, as if it was right under the city.

Yuan Li was furious: "It won't work, Wuling'an dared to beat the drum, dragged down and chopped..."

The confidant hurriedly argued: "Your Highness, it seems that it is not our army..."

"When grandpa was deaf... If it wasn't for drumming nearby, why would the city tremble?"

"Your Highness, this is not the sound of drums...it seems... like thunder, so although it is far away, it is very powerful..."

The confidant looked up at the bright and sunny sky as if he had seen a ghost.

Yuan Li was taken aback.

thunder……

Haha... Ray?

Li Chengzhi responded?
Good thief, which one is true and which one is false?

He gritted his teeth fiercely, his face full of ferocity: "Listen carefully to me, let's see how many times the thunder will ring..."

……

Li Chengzhi stood calmly in the watchtower, looking at the Southern Army camp on the opposite bank.

Chang Yizhi, that is, you judge that I want to build plank roads in the clear, and pass through Chencang secretly, but how do you know where is bright and where is dark?
Not to mention, I'm doing both...

A cannon sounded like thunder.Li Chengzhi sighed secretly and looked away.

On the north bank, Li Zhangzheng commanded the artillerymen to throw mines on the opposite bank.

It should have been prepared for a long time, the southern army was hundreds of feet away from the river bank, so it didn't hurt it at all.Instead, several holes were blasted into the mud on the shore.

After throwing it for a while, it seemed that it was too much work, so Wei Jun simply gave up.

Only Yuan Li, who has a heart, counted the number of people: the thunder was not too much, just nine times.

"It's Chen Shizheng (eight o'clock in the morning), nine hours later, it will be five o'clock three o'clock (about four o'clock in Lingchen). If Yuan Li is true to her words, she must be an internal response. At that time, our army will build a bridge When crossing the river..."

Li Chengzhi seems to be full of confidence, but Li Liang is very worried: "Forgive me to say bluntly: Yuan Li has a bad reputation and is erratic, it is hard to guarantee that it is not a counter-measure!"

"Anyway, it's easier said than done? It's a time when the moon is dark and the wind is high, and you can't see your fingers. If there is a slight alarm, it will be the Xiaobian Company Battalion. What's more, when the enemy's grass and trees are full of soldiers, and the snakes are shadows, you have to pretend to fight in the camp? If I For the sake of Changyi, even if Yuan Li is sure of everything, he definitely shouldn't..."

Li Chengzhi laughed softly, "Furthermore, sooner or later this bridge will be built, and this river will be crossed sooner or later. Therefore, Yuan Li should not do it. It’s just some firearms. But if it’s done, it’s an unworldly feat, so why not do it?”

Li Liang's heart beat wildly when he heard the four words of unrivaled merit.

On the other side is Changyizhi, the leader of the famous generals of Nanliang.If he can be beheaded or captured alive, how dare the world dare to say that Jun Jun is "suddenly expensive because of a sycophant"?
He took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down a bit: "This servant is suspicious of what Yuan Liyu said in the letter: only because he does not want to surrender to the Han, he is angry and rebels. And because he does not want to surrender, he wants to abandon the dark and turn to the light... ...It's like a child's play to repeat the rebellion, and there is such a shameless person in the world?"

Li Chengzhi couldn't help laughing: What is this?
In the past 5000 years, I fought against the army before the battle. There were not a thousand, but at least eight hundred soldiers, and there were many famous generals among them.

Not to mention far away, it is like Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Laozhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Hou Jing who has not yet been weaned and once proclaimed himself the general of the universe.

Compared to shameless repetition, these few people can be Yuan Li's ancestors...

"You and I are not Yuanli, how do you know what Yuanli wants in her heart? And like him, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the emperors of the Yuan and Wei dynasties who forced the Yuan people to practice Chinese customs, wear Hanfu, and speak Chinese... so I thought it was Yuan Li's heartfelt words."

This cannot be resolved at this stage, and there is no way to reconcile the contradiction, otherwise there will be no subsequent chaos in the Six Towns.

"That's the case, Yuan Li defected to Tuyuhun, why did she re-rebel and wanted to put Changyi to death?"

"The world knows that Yuan Li is cunning by nature and has no tolerance for others. Xu was furious because of being humiliated, so she wanted to put Changyi to death and hurry up... But in my opinion, it should be a plan to fight between the snipe and the clam." No, Yuan Li is even more unwilling to take advantage of Nanliang, so she will not stop doing one thing, and then re...rebel..."

What Li Chengzhi said was a little vague, but Li Liang understood it instantly.

For Yuanli, clams are naturally Nanliang and Tuyuhun, while snipe is Rouran.

As for Yuan Wei, of course it was that fish.

Yuan Li originally wanted to wait for the snipe and the clam to compete, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman.It's a pity that things backfired. The most powerful snipe was shot to death by the fish that turned into a Kun as soon as it came out of the nest.

And ask yourself, no matter how bad Yuan Li is, she is also a descendant of Tuoba after the clan.How could Yuan Li be reconciled to seeing the Southern Dynasty, whom he hated the most and which was regarded as the orthodox Han Dynasty, was about to gain?

This kind of mentality is very similar to Cui Zuzhi who wanted to join Nanliang brazenly, but didn't want Hu Qi to ravage Guanzhong and harm the people of the Han family, so he returned instead.

It is exactly the same as Lang Jun's set of words "even if the meat is rotten, at least it is still in the pot"...
