Chapter 110
Zhongping five years, late August.

In the city of Wuyin.

On this day, after Mu Shan returned from the Nanyang military camp outside the city, he immediately summoned the chief generals and deputy generals of each battalion under his command to gather in the main hall of the central camp to discuss their upcoming battle deployment.

"Lord Captain ordered someone to lead his troops northward tomorrow morning, and attack Gepo Yellow Turban with the vanguard army!"

Mu Shan's voice sounded a little heavy.

The Nanyang army has been on standby in Guanyang. After so many days, they are finally going north to Gepo. Gepo is the old nest of Huangjinqu Shuai Gongdu. This battle is bound to be a bloody battle.

"Attack Ge Po?"

"So fast!"

"There are still some problems with our integration and the cooperation between the various battalions. Now that we are rashly starting a war, I am afraid that the previous efforts will be in vain!"

"..."

All the generals frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Under Mu Shan's command, there are seven battalions, including Guards Battalion, Cavalry Battalion, Pioneer Battalion, Crossbow Battalion, Heavy Armor Battalion, Pingshan Battalion, and Jingping Battalion. It will take at least one or two months to complete. It is not good news for them to start a war at this time.

"This is an action coordinated by the prefects of all parties. The Shangcai side started fighting yesterday. Yuan Yin, the prefect of Runan, personally led the army to attack Shangcai. Liu Pi defended Shangcai. The battle is in full swing. If we don't move here, we will It’s tantamount to letting Ge Po’s Yellow Turban Army reinforce Shangcai, and once Runan’s soldiers and horses are defeated, they will surely implicate us!”

Mu Shan said: "So in this battle, it must be done and cannot be done!"

"Marshal Mu, Gepo Yellow Turbans have more than [-] men, and the strength of our few battalions alone may not be sufficient!"

Zhou Cang cupped his hands and spoke.

"We are just the vanguard, mainly to open up the road to attack Ge Po. We have to remove the Yellow Turban camps on this road one by one to clear the barrier for the main force!"

Mu Shan said: "Lord Captain will lead his troops to march behind, it will be here soon!"

"Shouldn't the lieutenants and their troops fail to reinforce us in time, wouldn't we face Ge Po's more than [-] yellow scarves alone?"

Cheng Luo said in a low voice.

"Military orders must not be disobeyed!" Mu Shan said calmly, "We must trust Lord Captain!"

His strength is self-confidence. If Huang Meng dares to stab a knife in the back, he will open up the entire battlefield, and at worst, he will fight to the death.

"Master County Captain, what about our food and grass?"

Li Yan thought about it and asked.

It is a fact that they are now strong and strong, but the consumption of food and grass is also a big problem. The food and grass brought by Mu Jing has almost been consumed. Now the problem of food and grass has become a big problem.

"I've tried my best to ask the captain for it, but the captain only allocated half a month's worth of food and grass for 3000 of us!" Mu Shan replied: "The grain and grass in Nanyang are slow to be escorted, which is why the captain has not dared The reason for attacking Ge Po, but now he can't wait anymore, he didn't intend to delay our food!"

"It's still too little!"

"Not even half of it, it's easy to run out of food!"

"Once there is no food, how do we fight?"

The generals peek at each other.

In fact, the food and grass for 3000 people is almost the same. After all, Wuyin County soldiers only reported about [-] people for the register, but the recent expansion has been too great.

"How much food and grass are there in our camp?" Someone asked.

"Recently, we consume a lot of food and grass. Even if we are more restrained, we only have ten days of food and grass at most!"

Jiang Lu replied.

"Don't worry, I have ordered Wuyin to transport grain to the north, and now I am on the way, and I will arrive in a few days!" Mu Shan waved his hands and said in a deep voice.

He has always attached great importance to the issue of grain and grass, so long ago, he had written to Zhang Gu, asking him to escort a batch of grain and grass to the front.

It stands to reason that this battle was fought in the name of the Nanyang Prefect's Mansion, so he shouldn't have taken the initiative to prepare food and grass, but after all he was someone the Prefect's Mansion feared, and the only thing the Prefect's Mansion could do with him was food and grass.

He feels safe only when he has all the supplies in his hands.

"This is a lot of reassurance!"

The generals breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now I'm starting to deploy the mission!"

Mu Shan got up and pushed out a screen. On the screen was a map of the march, centered on Gepo Shangcai and other places, reflecting hundreds of miles around. The terrain is not very clear, but it can be seen.

Pointing to the terrain, he said: "Zhou Cang, the cavalry battalion must raid the Yellow Turban Barracks less than [-] miles northeast of our city within one day. The battle will be resolved quickly. After the raid, immediately leave to divert their attention. They lead out of the camp, but don't fight recklessly!"

"promise!"

"Li Yan, Cheng Luo!"

"exist!"

"The Bow and Crossbow Battalion and the Heavy Armor Battalion are heading north behind the Cavalry Battalion, get through this Yellow Turban Battalion as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Lieutenant Deng!"

"exist!"

"Can the Pingshan Camp take the lead in pulling out the camp?"

"Can!"

"Okay, after you break up the camp, go east immediately, detour to the north from the east, make a circle here, go behind them, outflank here, and after forming an outflank, you only need to be responsible for cutting off their way back, no We need to make a move, we just need to guard against the rear and cut off the reinforcements in the direction of Ge Po as much as possible!"

"Boss, as far as I know, there is a beacon tower set up five miles between Ge Po and this military camp. The news is transmitted very quickly, and it may be difficult to intercept it!"

Cheng Luo said.

"There is no need to intercept the news. After the fight starts, even if it is blocked, I can't stop it. I just need to block the support of the reinforcements and open up the route to attack Ge Po in the shortest time!"

"Yes!"

The generals nodded.

"Master, where is my vanguard camp?" Lei Hu frowned and asked in a low voice.

"The Pioneer Battalion and my Personal Guard Battalion join forces!"

Mu Shan said lightly.

"But isn't the responsibility of the Vanguard Battalion the first in every battle?" Lei Hu was a little unwilling.

"When your vanguard battalion can defeat my personal guard battalion, I will let you be the first in every battle!" Mu Shan squinted at him, and said coldly: "Marching and fighting is not a child's play. Army, I will leave the battalion number of the vanguard battalion to you for the time being, but if you fail to qualify for the vanguard battalion in the future, I will remove this battalion number!"

"promise!"

Lei Hu nodded heavily.

The Pioneer Battalion suffered a lot and suffered countless casualties. Now even if he offended several uncles, there are only more than 600 people, and the combat power is much weaker than before. If you want to fight in the vanguard, basically is impossible.

"Go back and prepare immediately, and complete the matters before pulling out the camp as soon as possible!"

"As ordered!"

The generals led the way.

"Father, then my mission in Jingpingying is to stay here in Guanyang as a reserve?" Mu Jing said with a smile.

After all, the Jingping Battalion was composed of Yellow Turban soldiers, and it would be somewhat bad if they were to attack Gong Du's troops immediately, so it was normal for Mushan to want the Jingping Battalion to avoid the Battle of Gepo.

"You think beautiful!"

Mu Shanhu's eyes were like lightning, he squinted at him, and said coldly: "Jingping Battalion does not need to participate in the battle of Gepo, but immediately go north, take Dingying County and Xiping County in the shortest time, and beware of Ruyang's attack." Huang Shao's department!"

In the north of Runan, Huang Shao, commander of the Yingchuan Qu, sits in the town. Huang Shao has defeated the Yingchuan soldiers, and his prestige is in full swing. It will cause chaos.

Mu Shan didn't want to be attacked by the enemy, so he had to set up a defense zone in the north, and Jingping Battalion was the most suitable.

"Go north?"

Mu Jing frowned, looked at the map carefully, and said, "Father, if I go north, who will defend your rear wings!"

"Why should I defend the rear wing?" Mu Shan was expressionless.

"You are not afraid of Huang Meng and the others stabbing you!"

"You have a lot of thoughts!" Mu Shan looked at him with some amusement.

"I'm worried about you!"

"Shut up your little thoughts!" Mu Shan shook his head: "When the birds are exhausted, a good bow will be hidden, but before the birds are exhausted, a good bow will not be hidden. After all, the soldiers of Nanyang are united in order to agree to this battle. I can't see through it, I believe there are people in his camp who can see through it!"

"Father, when will you be able to read the text!" Mu Jing was very curious.

"Little bastard, I must force you to use force against you!" Mu Shan was furious, looking as if he wanted to cut Mu Jing into pieces. Recently, he listened to Jiang Lu's advice. As a general, he must be ignorant , so he studied very hard, so he uttered a few words with connotation, but he didn't expect to be despised by his son, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he had the urge to kill his relatives righteously.

"Father, I'll go down and prepare for the camp!"

Mu Jing got up quickly, took Zhang Ning's little hand, and didn't care about Zhang Ning's blushing, and walked outside in twos and threes: "Vice General Zhang, Dad is going crazy, let's go!"

"Damn, this kid attacked the city so fast?"

Mu Shan was a little stunned: "I'm going to have a little grandson soon!"

"Master Mu, Mu Longtu is only 13 years old!" Jiang Lu put away some papers in his hand, and said angrily, "If you want to have a grandson, I'm afraid you have to wait!"

"When I was 13, I was ready to ask for a wife!"

Mu Shan spoke righteously.

"You cow!"

Jiang Lu was speechless.

"Sir, what was my deployment just now?" In front of Jiang Lu, Mu Shan was still very modest.

"I'm not worried about the Marshal's ability on the battlefield. There is no doubt that the Marshal can open up the way to attack Ge Po, but I'm a little worried that it's not that simple!"

"How do you say?" Mu Shan's face was serious.

"Recently the movement of the Yellow Turban Army, the Marshal has watched carefully!"

"It's very quiet!"

"It's just too quiet!" Jiang Ludao: "It's not that they don't know that Shangcai has been suppressed recently, but they are actually indifferent. Do you think they are just waiting to die?"

"No!" Mu Shan shook his head.

"That means they have absolute support!" Jiang Lu said.

"So, this battle is not easy!" Mu Shan's face became serious.

"The Marshal needs to be more careful!"

Jiang Ludao: "It is a good decision to place the Jingping Battalion in the north. With the Jingping Battalion defending in the north, the Shepherd can advance or retreat!"
