The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 279 Reinforcement arrives
On this day, Liu Chan stayed on the small hillside. After watching the sunset, he took everyone down the mountain until the Polaris came out.

At this time, the camp had already been built in sevens and eighties, and some soldiers who had completed their tasks had already begun to eat.Liu Chan immediately sent someone to pass on Guan Xing, so that the troops could be taken back to the camp.

When Guan Xing returned to the camp and took a look, he was startled from ear to ear.Torches were lit everywhere in the entire camp, densely packed like stars in the sky.

One camp is connected to another camp, but it is completely different from the random setting up everywhere like before. They are all built in a row along a straight line, and a straight path is left between each camp to prevent continuous fire. camp.What is even more amazing is that a road that can accommodate five horses is deliberately set aside in the center of Dazhai!
This is no longer a camp, it is simply a town.

While Guan Xing was amazed, he had to admire Liu Chan's wisdom. He seemed to be able to calculate the size of each enemy in Dazhai so easily.This kind of wisdom is simply beyond my reach.

At noon the next day, Liao Hua's generals Gai Meng and Liao Sheng finally arrived with 1000 reinforcements, and the mighty team stretched for a mile.And the front of the team is all cavalry, at least [-] in number, this Liao Hua is very generous.

Because Liu Chan was very happy in his heart, he actually came to greet him outside the gate of the camp in person.Only then did he realize that this Liao Sheng he knew was Liao Hua's cousin.This man was quite courageous. When he was attacking the bandit stronghold in Fuyun Futianyuan, he led dozens of people to attack the bandits guarding the gate at night, so that Zhang Fei's army could enter the city smoothly and made a big victory. credit.

And it was the first time Liu Chan saw Gai Meng.However, it's a little ridiculous that although this person's name is Gai Meng, he doesn't look fierce at all.He was tall and thin, with a fair face, and wearing a white armor, he looked more like a scholar than a military general as Liao Huaxin mentioned.

Of course Liao Sheng remembered Liu Chan, seeing him coming out to greet him in person, he couldn't help being shocked, he hurriedly got off his horse and went forward to salute, "The last general, Liao Sheng, has met your son."

Liu Chan helped him up, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to see you in such a short time. Liao Sheng, you have become a lieutenant general. It's really amazing!"

Liao Sheng didn't seem restrained in front of Liu Chan, he also smiled and said: "How could Liao Sheng be able to be a lieutenant general with such a talent, that's what Guan Junhou and my elder brother value."

"You can't say that. If you don't have talent, how can General Liao Hua let you lead 5000 troops to support me?"

Liao Sheng's dark face suddenly turned red, and he said: "The general is ashamed. My lord, among the 5000 troops brought by the general this time, in addition to [-] infantry, the remaining [-] are cavalry. My elder brother said, His place is near the water, so he doesn't need many cavalry, so he asked the last general to bring most of the cavalry."

Two thousand cavalry!This is definitely the combat power that Liu Chan needs most now.Liu Chan was even happier in his heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, with your support army, our chances of winning this time will be even greater!" Then, Liu Chan stepped forward and patted Liao Sheng's arm as a reward.

Then, Liu Chan looked at Gai Meng and asked, "Then this one should be General Gai Meng, right?"

It was also the first time for Gai Meng to meet the crown prince Liu Chan, when he saw the crown prince talking to him, he took a step forward and saluted, "The last general Gai Meng pays homage to His Highness the crown prince." His terms were very formal.

After Liu Chan asked Gai Meng to excuse him, he asked, "Is this the first time I've seen General Gai Meng?"

Gai Meng hesitated for a moment, then said: "Exactly. The last general used to be under the command of General Jin."

Liu Chan immediately realized that this person was a general.However, Liao Hua seemed to trust him in being able to send this person to help in the battle.

Liu Chan immediately nodded and said: "So that's the case. Don't mention the previous things. Now that General Yu Jin is in Jiangling City, you have also become a general of our side. As long as you can do your best, I will definitely treat you equally. .”

When Gai Meng heard the words, he immediately thanked Liu Chan.

Liao Sheng said at this time: "My lord, the two thousand cavalry we have here is led by General Gai Meng, who is a master at using cavalry to fight."

Liu Chan's eyes suddenly brightened, he really needs the help of someone who is good at cavalry warfare now!He immediately laughed and said, "That's great! It seems that General Liao Hua is my Liu Chan's timely help. Whatever I need here, he will send me!"

When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter.

Then, Liu Chan introduced Guan Xing, Bao Sanniang and other generals to Liao Sheng and Gai Meng.In fact, Liao Sheng knew Guan Xing, after all, he had been in Jiangling City for quite a long time, if he hadn't seen the second son of Guan Yu's family, it was obviously a waste of time.

Then, Liu Chan said to Liao Sheng and Gai Meng: "Although I know that you have been exhausted on the way, but the military situation is urgent now, so you two need to go to the camp with me to discuss military affairs before you can go to the camp to rest. .Now you hand over the troops to my attendant Zhuge Qiao, and he will arrange them properly."

The two immediately took orders, and after passing on Liu Chan's order, they followed Liu Chan into the camp first.

But when Liao Sheng and Gai Meng entered Dazhai, they were stunned by the neat and orderly layout inside. The inside was so orderly, it was like entering a city.

Liao Sheng couldn't help sighing to Ma Liang: "Mr. Ma, I didn't expect you to build the camp so beautifully. How come the general hasn't seen it before?"

Ma Liang looked at Liu Chan who was walking in front, and said with a smile: "I didn't arrange all this, it was all planned by the prince. No matter how capable Liang is, he can't make such a camp!" It seems that even Ma Liang admired Liu Chan's big camp very much.

Liao Sheng and Gai Meng couldn't imagine that the eldest son Liu Chan had such a brilliant ability at such a young age, and they immediately admired Liu Chan in their hearts, and couldn't help but look at Liu Chan's back a few more times.

After everyone came to Liu Chan's handsome tent, they took their seats in sequence.Seeing that all the people in the hall were talented people, Liu Chan was even more happy, and immediately ordered someone to call Xiong Ping and Meng Xi.

Among Xiong Meng and Xiong Ping, Xiong Ping's official rank is higher, but now he is actually in command of a part of Liu Chan's Zuoying Army with a total of 1000 troops.So those who knew them couldn't help but wonder why Liu Chan specially called them two.

After Xiong and Meng entered the account, they saw that there were already a bunch of people sitting inside, from Ma Liang to Guan Xing to Bao Sanniang, etc., all of them had higher positions than them, and suddenly felt strange why Liu Chan asked them to come. .So after saluting to Liu Chan, he stood under the hall and dared not move.

Liu Chan smiled at the two of them and said, "You guys also find seats to sit down." Only then did Xiong and Meng take their seats at the bottom of Guan Xing's row.

Only then did Liu Chan look at the people below again, and said: "Today, my son is going to announce the strategy for the next battle. So don't be surprised why I let Xiong Ping and Meng Xi come in, because this strategy is fundamentally Speaking of which, it was Meng Xi who came up with it."

When everyone heard this, they almost all turned their heads to look at Meng Xi in different ways.Meng Xi blushed and lowered his head.

Liu Chan coughed and said, "Listen everyone, this is my arrangement. Our army will be divided into three parts. The first part is the frontal battlefield, which is the army that directly confronts Lu Jian's army. It will be led by General Guan Xing and I. The left battalion and the right battalion have two troops and 8000 cavalry, a total of [-] people."

Guan Xing immediately stood up and took the order.

Liu Chan went on to say: "Bao Sanniang, Wang Tao, and Wang Rui, three sisters-in-law, will lead the remaining 3000 troops from the right battalion, and [-] cavalry as the second line of troops. You must lie in ambush in the Linyishui mountainous area, and wait until four days later to face the battlefield Entering the decisive stage, they suddenly burst out from the flanks. This army can start in two days."

The three female generals took the order immediately.

Then, Liu Chan said: "The third group of troops is composed of [-] infantry from the Zhongying Army and [-] new cavalry. The task of this army is to pass through the mountainous area by the river and quietly go around to the camp of Lu Jianjun. Four days later, we will raid and occupy the enemy camp. Liao Sheng, Xiong Ping, and Meng Xi will be the main generals, and we can set off at noon tomorrow."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Xiong Meng and Xiong Meng again in disbelief. With their current official positions, they could stand side by side with Liao Sheng?There was some hesitation in his eyes.

Liu Chan naturally saw everyone's thoughts, and immediately said: "Everyone, don't just look at the size of the official positions. You must know that the task of the third army is actually the most difficult. After they occupy the enemy's camp, they must launch defenses on the north and south sides. Because At that time, the enemy troops in Anzhong City Fortress will definitely send troops to attack immediately, and when Lu Jian learns that the camp is lost, he will definitely retreat madly and try to retake Dazhai, because that is the only way to enter Anzhong."

Everyone seemed to understand the meaning of Liu Chan's words. He deliberately gave them more authority because the task was too difficult, and everyone's opinions were naturally much smaller.Only then did the three of Liao Sheng stand up and take orders.

Then, Liu Chan seemed to be a little worried, and he told Liao Sheng and the three of them: "This time you are going to battle, it is related to the entire battle situation, so the three of you must be united with sincerity, and you must discuss it together when you act. Liao Sheng and Xiong Ping, the two of you Humans are always brave in battle, but Meng Xi has strategies, you two can listen to Meng Xi's opinions more in everything."

The three looked at each other, and once again took orders at the same time.

Then, Liu Chan announced the last appointment, saying: "You can't march without a staff officer. Gai Meng is good at cavalry combat, so he can join the army as my cavalry. Mr. Ma Liang and Zhuge Qiao stay in Dazhai to take charge of daily affairs."

After Liu Chan assigned the tasks to everyone one by one in such a smooth manner, he finally calmed down a little.It was really not easy for him to say such big words in one breath.

But at this time, under the influence of Liu Chan, everyone couldn't help but start to imagine in their minds that they either led the army to ambush in the mountains, or led the army to attack the enemy's camp, or led the army to attack the enemy's majestic scene.

However, except for one person—Gai Meng, his face looked a little unhappy.
