Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 314

Mianchi, the ferry of the Yellow River.

Carts full of grain and grass were transported to Hebei, then loaded on ships, and then transported to Henan.On a soil slope at the ferry crossing, Cheng Wu, who was in charge of transporting grain and grass, looked at the bustling crowd and urged the grain to be transported as soon as possible.

"Joining the army, why are you in such a hurry? You should know that now we have iron chains chaining the Yellow River upstream and downstream, and those damned Jingxiang sailors will not be able to come!" Seeing Cheng Wu yelling in such a hurry, he took charge together with him. Xia Houmao, captain of the Xiaoqi school who was transporting food and grass, also laughed.

Cheng Wu is the son of Cheng Yu, and Xia Houmao is the eldest son of Xia Houyuan, who can be regarded as the official second generation of the authentic Cao Wei Group.Now that Cao Hong's army is fighting in Henan, these juniors either go out with the army, or are busy making soy sauce and transporting grain and grass behind.Although Cheng Wu is not as intelligent as his father, he is very similar to Cheng Yu in one thing, that is, he has an extremely keen sense of crisis.

"That being said, the sooner the grain and grass arrive at the front, the soldiers will feel more at ease!" Cheng Wu said cautiously.At this moment, the soldiers on the shore exclaimed.Cheng Wu was taken aback, and quickly climbed up to see what happened.It didn't matter, Cheng Wu was stunned.

But seeing dozens of small boats floating down the upper reaches of the Yellow River, these small boats are very strange, all of which are stacked with large cabinets.But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the sailors on the ship, all armor is vermilion: authentic Liu Beijun equipment.

"Is it the Jingxiang navy?" Xia Houmao, who followed, saw these boats and became anxious.Awakened by Xia Houmao's duck-like cry, Cheng Wu was also shocked, and then asked in wonder: "Why did the Jingxiang navy come here? Aren't there iron chains and hidden reefs upstream?"

No one could answer him, but Cheng Wu soon knew the answer.After bumping into the iron chains on the river bank, the soldiers of the navy immediately moved the large cabinet on the ship to the bow against the chains, and then ignited the large cabinet.I don't know what these cabinets are made of, but the fire is burning so vigorously.

"This is?" Under Cheng Wu's and Xia Houmao's unbelievable eyes, the iron chain was burned red and then broke.Since this section is a ferry, there are only iron chains and no hidden reefs.As a result, after the iron chain was burned, the warship following behind rushed towards the unsuspecting grain carrier like a dragon out of the water.

"Quickly, quickly withdraw!" Xia Houmao was really anxious, he didn't want to come too fast, although he had already withdrawn just now, there were still more than ten grain transport ships that hadn't had time to withdraw, and were finally hit and sunk In the Yellow River, all the grain on the boat was soaked.

"General Cheng Zi, General Hengbo of the Great Han Navy, everyone, we will meet later!" From the bow of the ship, an arrogant voice came ashore.Xia Houmao was so angry that he almost didn't jump into the water. Cheng Wu looked at the Jingxiang navy who was gradually going away, and his heart suddenly became clear: nine times out of ten, the iron chains upstream were also cleared by them in this way.Then I thought, now the Jingxiang navy can come and go freely in the Yellow River again.

"Wait, doesn't this mean that the hundreds of thousands of troops have been completely divided in the land of Henan?" As soon as this idea came up, Cheng Wu suddenly felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet to his forehead, and he almost collapsed on the spot on the ground.After compose himself, Cheng Wu still decided to report to the imperial court in Yecheng first. With his own ability, he couldn't come up with any good ideas for a while.

What Cheng Wu didn't know was that this was just the beginning.At this time in Didao, Longxi, Zhang Fei took a roll of paper from the leg of a carrier pigeon, unfolded it, and immediately grinned: "The matter over the Yellow River has been settled, and I can send troops later." !"

"Okay!" After hearing Zhang Fei's words, Zhao Feng and others cheered.They have been stationed in Longxi for more than half a month, Zhao Feng is calm and calm, but Zhang Fei has been waiting for a while.Now that I receive the news to attack Hebei, I can't help but feel relieved.

"This time, Zilong and Meng Qi led the army to attack Youzhou; Bo Tao and I led the army to attack Bingzhou. Tian Yu, the guard of Yanmen Pass in Bingzhou, is an old friend of His Majesty, so if he can be persuaded to surrender, Yanmen Pass It can be done in one fell swoop." Zhang Fei finally arranged, and everyone nodded in agreement.

The next day, 15 troops left Longxi, then went out of Xiaoguan and then beyond the Great Wall, and marched eastward until they reached the remote state.The composition of this 15 army is extremely complicated, of which 10 are Xiliang cavalry under Ma Chao's command, and the remaining 2, of which about [-] are cavalry, formed after Liu Bei occupied Guanzhong and captured Sima Yi's Guanzhong cavalry .From Cao Cao to Xiahouyuan and then to Liu Bei, there are only more than [-] cavalry left, and they have always been led by Zhang Fei.The remaining approximately [-] infantry are a mixed force formed by the [-] Sichuan Army and the [-] Guanzhong Army.It is precisely because the composition of this army is extremely complicated that Liu Bei sent so many generals to jointly lead this army with complex composition and structure.

According to the intelligence gathered by Zhuge Liang and others, Cao Jun has basically gone south now, and the number of left-behind troops in Youzhou and Bingzhou will not exceed tens of thousands.With the bravery of Zhang Fei and others, it is definitely easy and enjoyable to flatten these two states, and even if it is not good, it can mess up the hinterland. After the 15 troops left Xiaoguan, they marched to Bingzhou and Youzhou.Facing such a large-scale army, even if the barbarian tribe on the grassland wants to take advantage of the fire, they have to weigh their own weight.

Facts have proved that there are still people who don't have long eyes.After leaving Xiaoguan, after marching for two days, Zhang Ren from the rear came to report that several carts of food and grass had just been snatched by hundreds of cavalry.

"Can you see what tribe the visitor is from?" Ma Chao asked, Zhang Ren shook his head, he had not lived outside the fortress for a long time, and the visitor ran away without even saying hello, of course he didn't know.At this time Zhang Fei rushed over to ask, and when he found out that there were only a few carts of grain and grass, he curled his lips and said, "It's only a few carts of grain and grass, Yiyi, I'll send some cavalry to take care of the grain and grass for you right away, just be careful in the future." Zhang Ren promised not to mention it.

"Third general, these barbarians are really hateful. How about this, you go to attack Youzhou and Bingzhou, how about I lead a group of people here to play with them?" Zhao Feng was a little uncomfortable seeing that Zhang Fei wanted to let it go.For these prairie bandits, Zhao Feng has always been indifferent.It's just that his suggestion at this time is really shocking.

"Bo Tao, my top priority right now is to attack Bingzhou and Youzhou. It won't be too late to clean up these little bastards in the future!" Zhang Fei was a little surprised that Zhao Feng would be so uninterested in the plan to surprise Bingzhou and Youzhou. He didn't know Yes, as a time traveler, I don't have any self-reliance ambitions. Naturally, my greatest interest is to expand the territory.Zhao Feng didn't want to spend his whole life fighting in civil wars.That's why he worked so hard last time when he fought the Vietnamese.

Now Bingzhou and Youzhou have Zhang Fei and the others going to attack, even if they don't make a move, they will definitely be able to win.That being the case, why don't I stay here and compete with these savages?Seeing that Zhao Feng's expression was still eager to try, Zhang Fei knew that he would not give up easily, so he could only explain: "Now we are waiting to enter Youzhou, if we stay here to compete with these barbarians with you, if we stay longer, we will attack Youzhou Bing is short of troops, and you can't win if you stay less, you should wait until Youzhou and Bingzhou are pacified before making plans!"

"Forget it, let them be arrogant for a few more days!" Zhao Feng said unwillingly.At this time, Ma Dai smiled and said: "If Lord Zhao is not reconciled, how about I wait tonight and clean up this little bastard who just came to provoke us without knowing what to do?"

"Zhonghua, it's important. I'll go to Bingzhou first to talk about it!" Ma Chao saw that his younger brother was also in such high spirits, and quickly reprimanded him.Ma Dai didn't want to, but continued: "Brother, this is the territory of the Huns. If you want to come, some small tribe of the Huns will come to mess with us. Brother only needs [-] cavalry. Tonight, when everyone is sleeping, go and destroy him in one fell swoop. Can!"

"A thousand iron cavalry?" Zhang Fei was stunned when he heard the words, but Ma Dai continued to explain: "When the Huns cavalry enter, they are the people, and when they fight, they are soldiers. Just now General Gongyi said that hundreds of them came to rob food and grass. It would be almost impossible for the entire tribe to come here." That's all for these soldiers. Tonight, I only need a thousand cavalry to raid the base camp of these people at night and wipe them all out!"

"That's it!" Zhang Fei was a little bit moved when he heard the words, if the other party was really just a handful of thieves, it would be fine to kill them easily.Seeing that no one objected, Zhang Fei agreed, "Since this is the case, and it is getting late today, we will set up camp here and follow you with two thousand cavalry. Whether we can find it or not, we must come back early tomorrow morning to meet you." Let's meet up. If the other party has a lot of people, don't go head-to-head, you know?"

"Young general understands!" Ma Dai replied with a smile, then turned to Zhao Feng and said, "Prince Zhao, let's go together?"

"Let's go together!" Zhao Feng quickly agreed, joking about such an interesting thing as murder and arson, how could he not go?It's just that this answer is really a bit spoof, and it reminds him of the revolutionaries described by a certain writer in his previous life.

"Grandma, why is this kid so interested in murder and arson?" Looking at Zhao Feng who happily followed Ma Dai away, Zhang Fei also muttered, but he thought of his son telling him what Zhao Feng was like in Jiaozhou "Cruel".Zhang Fei didn't believe it before, but now he does.

"Zhong Hua, do you know where these guys went?" Zhao Feng asked with some uncertainty.He and Ma Dai led [-] iron cavalry to go there, and naturally Ma Dai led the way to follow them.It's just that those hundreds of people ran away after grabbing the food. Who knows where they have gone?

"Don't worry, my lord, these people are gone, but the horseshoe prints on the ground are still there. I guess I can catch up in a few hours at most." Ma Dai said confidently.

"It doesn't take long, it's already here!" Zhao Feng suddenly said, Ma Dai also saw it.On the horizon ahead, a group of tent tops appeared, surrounded by a circle of wooden fences, which seemed to be the tribe where the Hu people lived.

After walking a few steps closer, I found that there were still a dozen or so carts being pushed into the tribe.That big cart looked very familiar, it was obviously his own supply cart.

"Everyone has stolen goods, there is nothing to say, give it to me!" Following Zhao Feng's order, two thousand cavalry rushed towards the tribe.The opponent had discovered this troop just now, and even though something happened hastily, they still rushed forward to fight.
