Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 222 The key is the street booth

On Qishan Avenue, an army of tens of thousands of people is winding forward.There were [-] cavalry in the front army, and [-] infantry followed behind.This is the entire army that Zhao Feng sent out of Qishan, passed through Wudu County controlled by the Di people from Qishan Avenue, then defeated Cao Jun's Qishan camp, and then entered Tianshui County.

"Tomorrow our army will arrive at Qishan Camp. Once Qishan Camp is captured, we can enter Tianshui County. Jicheng in Tianshui County is where Cao Wei's Liangzhou government is located. Right now, Cao Wei's Governor of Liangzhou, Wei Kang, is leading the army. [-] guards are difficult to break through easily. The only plan for now is to divide the troops into three groups. Meng Qi, you and Zilong Xiaozhi will lead the army to attack Longxi together, and Yifeng will lead an army of [-] to go north and capture Linwei County, so as to cut off the entry from the Wei River. For the road in Longxi, I will lead the rest of the troops to besiege Jicheng and guard the street pavilions!" That night, Zhao Feng explained his final plan in his camp.

"That's good!" Ma Chao nodded and looked at the people in the tent. Ma Chao suddenly bowed in groups and said, "Thank you for your help in recapturing Xiliang today. , if you need me for anything, just let me know, and Ma Chao will do his best to help!"

"Meng Qi is serious!" Everyone replied, but Zhao Feng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said to Ma Chao: "To be honest, the generals of Gong and Miao are in Nanzhong to guard against the Nanman, but the generals I am marching this time are Insufficient, when the siege of Jicheng still needs generals, I don't know if Meng Qi can cut off his love and lend me Lingdi or Lingming?"

"A matter of duty!" Ma Chao immediately agreed when he heard the words, and then said to Pang De: "Ling Ming, you can go to General Zhao's orders for the time being!"

"No!" Pound responded repeatedly, and Zhao Feng quickly thanked him.After discussing for a few more times, Ma Chao and the others left, and finally, in the empty tent, only Ma Di was left besides Zhao Feng.

"Youchang, what's the matter?" Zhao Feng looked at Ma Di who was hesitating to speak, and asked a little strangely.

"General, do you mean that you are going to lead the army to guard the street pavilion?" Ma Di hesitated for a while, but still asked.

"Yes, the street pavilion is an important place, which is related to the success or failure of this march, so I will naturally guard it!" Zhao Feng said as a matter of course.Hearing this, Ma Su frowned and said, "The general is the commander of the three armies, and he is in charge of the center. Why do you want to guard such a small place as Jieting? I think the general is going to attack Jicheng, and I will defend Jieting!"

"Pfft!" Zhao Feng spit out another sip of tea when he heard the words, ignored Ma Di's surprise, and watched him several times from beginning to end, until he was about to look at Ma Di, then he said with some difficulty: "You said you want Go to the Jieting Pavilion?"

"Yeah, let me guard the small street pavilion!" Ma Di said as a matter of course, and immediately found something wrong as soon as the words came out, because Zhao Feng looked at him very seriously, and couldn't help being stunned.

Seeing that Ma Di was a little nervous, Zhao Feng sighed and said, "Youchang, although Xiahouyuan's army is currently restrained in Weinan by Gongyi, once we enter Tianshui County, the defenders will definitely send someone to inform him. Once he gets the news, He will send his troops to rescue. Xia Houyuan is the number one general under Cao Cao. He marches so fast, and his combat bravery is the best in the world. Apart from me and Gongyi, I am afraid that none of the generals in Yizhou can resist You can stop him! You are young after all, you still can't stop him!"

"The general is worrying too much. Although Xia Houyuan is brave, I am only a guard after all. I am not fighting him one-on-one. How can I be afraid of him? A certain man has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and guarding a small street pavilion is no problem!" Ma Su clapped Pack your ticket with your chest in your chest.Zhao Feng looked at the confident Ma Su in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a while.

In history, Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan six times, and it is recognized that the closest to victory is the first time.At that time, after Zhuge Liang sent Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi to attract the Wei army to defend in Xiegu, he led his army out of Qishan, and the three counties of Tianshui surrendered.Just when the situation was very good, because Ma Di lost the street pavilion, he was forced to return to the army.On the contrary, it was through this battle that the Wei army had figured out Zhuge Liang's marching strategy, so the subsequent Northern Expeditions were to sit on the sidelines and wait for a rabbit, dragging Zhuge Liang to death abruptly.

Now that Ma Di is full of confidence and volunteers to guard the street pavilion again, can he trust him?Although after the training at Yinping Pass, Ma Su has made great progress, but Zhao Feng can't guarantee that he won't make that kind of mistake again, after all, he can't bear this responsibility.But if he refuses like this, maybe it will leave some psychological shadow on Ma Di, which also makes Zhao Feng quite a headache.

After much deliberation, Zhao Feng finally said: "Youchang, since you want to guard the street pavilion, it's okay, just go with me!"

"General, we are all going to guard the street pavilion. What about Jicheng?" Ma Di suddenly thought of this question and asked quickly.

"I will send Ling Ming to take Jicheng, you and Zijun will guard the street pavilion with me!" Zhao Feng said lightly.Ma Su looked at the calm Zhao Feng in front of him, hesitated for a moment and then sighed: "The attack on Jicheng is a matter of success or failure this time. Pang Lingming is the general of the Ma family. Did the general send the generals under the lord's command to go?"

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious when employing people. Apart from me and Gongyi, there is also Zilong among the generals of the Sichuan army. I'm afraid no one can catch up with Ling Ming!" Zhao Feng was not lying.Ma Di looked at Zhao Feng, but finally sighed and said: "The general may not know something. The day before yesterday I talked about the general with brother Kong Ming. Both of us admire the general very much, but there is still a word of advice. If the general is not strange Ma Di presumptuously, I will speak out!"

"But it's okay to say it!" Zhao Feng signaled Ma Di to say it anyway, joking about Zhuge Liang's evaluation of himself, Zhao Feng was still very interested in knowing.

"It is true that a gentleman is magnanimous, but he must guard against others!" Ma Di said meaningfully.Zhao Feng looked at Ma Su, and knew that he definitely didn't say what he said, it was probably Zhuge Liang who said it.The so-called defense against others is indispensable. It is worth pondering who it is to guard against.

In the evening of the next day, the army marched to the Wei army camp in Qishan.It is said to be a large camp, but in fact there are only more than 5 defenders.At this time, Tanma had found out the news. Xia Houyuan led [-] troops to confront Zhang Ren and Lu Xun in the Weishui River. The Qishan camp had only a few thousand defenders, and even the [-] defenders in Jicheng were mostly prefectures. Soldiers with limited combat power.Xia Houyuan only thought that the Sichuan army was bluffing this time, but he didn't expect Zhao Fengfeng to make a fuss in Longxi.

"Kill!" Just as the defenders of the Qishan camp were cooking smoke and preparing to cook dinner, there was a sudden cry of killing, and then a weird army wearing leather armor, with oil paint on their faces and disheveled hair like savages suddenly Coming out from the back of the Qishan camp, the defenders were caught off guard, and dozens of people were already dead on the spot in an instant.

"Don't panic, fight, fight!" Under the command of the captain guarding the village, the defenders finally resisted.But this unprecedented flying army is the elite trump card in Zhao Feng's hands. Under the leadership of Wang Ping and Zhu Ran, they climbed up the back mountain and suddenly attacked the Qishan camp.The hasty resistance of the defenders was in front of them, which was almost symbolic.In addition to this non-mainstream attire, the timid defenders only thought it was a ghost coming, and they were almost scared out of their wits on the spot, so how could they organize an effective counterattack.

In just one cup of tea, hundreds of defenders had already been killed, and the rest surrendered one after another seeing that they were going wrong.When Zhao Feng, Ma Chao and others came to the front of the village from the main road, the gate of the village had already been opened, and Wang Ping was cleaning the battlefield.

"The Unprecedented Flying Army is really amazing. It killed more than [-] enemies, and its own casualties were less than [-]." These are the words of Zhao Yun, who has been on the battlefield for a long time.Of course, if he saw how this army fought the enemy, I'm afraid he would be even more surprised.

Spears, single swords, darts, javelins, all kinds of weapons, all kinds of killing methods, this army is simply a precise killing machine.These tough-tempered Nanmans take killing people like killing chickens.However, Zhu Ran once led the Wudang Flying Army, and even led the Shanyue Army, fully aware of the combat effectiveness of ethnic minorities, and has become accustomed to it.

"Meng Qi, rest in this village tonight. I will divide the troops tomorrow, and you can go to Xiliang. If there is any change, please report anytime!" Before going to sleep, Zhao Feng told Ma Chao.

"Thank you Bo Tao!" Ma Chao said with emotion, and finally sighed: "It's a pity that I only have one girl, otherwise I will definitely marry another girl for you to help me so much!"

"Thank you very much!" Zhao Feng had no choice but to smile wryly towards this extremely nervous Ma Chao.According to Ma Chao's own estimate, if he returned to Xiliang and then contacted the Baqiang tribe who was at odds with Han Sui, as well as some of Ma Teng's old tribes, and then defeated Han Sui, it would take a month at most.When he was done, he led people to Jieting to help him defeat Xiahouyuan.In other words, I have to stick to the street pavilion for a month.Excluding the time when Xia Houyuan arrived after hearing the news, he had to guarantee at least 20 days that the street pavilion would not be lost.

In the early morning of the next day, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Ma Dai and Fazheng led their troops to Xiliang, Zhao Feng led his troops across Wudu County, and went straight to Tianshui County.With the help of Ma Chao's prestige, the Sichuan army easily passed some tribes of the Di people, and along the way Pang De also gathered more than 5000 Di people to help in the battle.And when the army entered the border of Tianshui County, Wei Kang, the governor of Liangzhou who was in Jicheng, finally got the news.

"What, the Sichuan Army came from Qishan Avenue via Wudu County, why is there no news from Qishan Camp?" Yang Fu, the prefect of Tianshui, was shocked when he heard the words, and Jiang Xu, who was at the side, was a little calmer than him, just sighed He took a deep breath and said: "I think the Qishan camp has already fallen, but what should I do now, please make a decision as soon as possible, Lord Inspector!"

"How many people are there in the Sichuan Army?" Wei Kang calmed down a little, and asked the detail in front of him.

"The number of people is extremely large, at least fifty thousand!" Xi Zuo replied.As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall gasped. "Such a large number of troops is beyond our ability to match. In my opinion, first stick to the city, and at the same time send someone to report to General Xiahou, so that he can lead the army to rescue the siege as soon as possible!" Wei Kang said slowly.

"That's great!" Yang Fu and Jiang Xu agreed with Wei Kang's proposal.With only this little force on hand, no one would be arrogant enough to go to a decisive battle with tens of thousands of Sichuan troops.At that moment, Wei Kang issued several emergency documents in a row, and led his army to defend Jicheng.

What Wei Kang didn't know was that Xia Houyuan was sulking in Wugong City right now.There is no other reason, but because the Sichuan army on the other side of the river was so arrogant that they repeatedly scolded him and asked him to fight by name.
