The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 858 Powerful Strategy ([-])

After Liu Chan gave the order to continue the army to Wanling County, he handed over all the matters of organizing the army to set off to Yu Jin.

Now that the battles of the various armies have just finished, the teams are definitely scattered, and some may even be chasing the enemy. It is impossible to regroup them so quickly.The good thing is that Jin has a lot of experience, so entrusting him with full authority is of course more suitable than anyone else.

And in order to train the newcomers and make them more familiar with various affairs of the army, Liu Chan ordered Zhang Bao and Xiong Ping to stay and assist Yu Jin this time.Naturally, one person must stay on the side of the Shanyue people, and the other person can act as a representative of the allies and follow Liu Chan to leave here first.After You Tu and Peng Qi discussed for a while, it was Peng Qi who was finally retained.

Then Liu Chan himself, Zhang Fei, Shi Guangyuan, Gai Meng, and Peng Qi brought their own guards and Zhao Feng's white-eared guards. There were a total of more than 1000 people as guards, and they set off to the fortress together. Went to Wanling City.

As for the senior generals of the enemy army such as Zhuge Jin and Ling Tong who were captured in this battle, they were left behind together. Liu Chan did not take them away. They will be escorted to Wanling City together with Yu Jin's army. .

Wanling County is only twenty or thirty miles away from this battlefield at most, and the troops on Liu Chan's side soon arrived at the city.

Due to the sudden arrival of these people from Liu Chan's side, Deng Ai's men who guarded the city thought it was an enemy attack, and immediately sent out a signal for an enemy attack.

The top of the city suddenly became busy, and all the soldiers rushed to their respective posts as quickly as possible, and all kinds of equipment for defending the city were assumed.As for the city gate, this is a large battlefield ahead, and in order to prevent the Jiangdong army from deserting, the city gate has almost never been opened recently, and has been tightly closed all the time.

All of this was carried out quickly and orderly, Liu Chan who saw it immediately nodded secretly, this Deng Ai is indeed good at managing the army.And Meng Xi is not in Wanling at this time, and he is now in charge of the defense line formed by the two cities of Wuhu and Liyang.

Liu Chan turned his head and smiled at Shi Guangyuan: "If Deng Ai manages an army with such drive, it will be very reassuring." His appreciation is beyond words.

Deng Aina was Shi Guangyuan's favorite student, Liu Chan's praise of Deng Ai in this way was almost the same as praising him for his good teaching.Shi Guangyuan couldn't help but smiled, and said: "Shi Zai has been fighting in the army for more than a year, and he has also experienced such a dangerous siege of Gongan City, all kinds of affairs should have been done. more familiar."

Liu Chan nodded, and ordered Zhao Feng's white-eared guards to unfurl Liu Chan's banner.Then, another white-eared guard stepped forward to explain his identity to the city gate captain who was in charge of the city gate, and asked the other party to open the door quickly and let Liu Chan's troops enter the city.

The captain of the city gate was startled when he saw that the opponent had unfurled Liu Chan's banner.Then, he inquired with the Baier Imperial Guard again, and he could almost confirm that the identity of the other party was Liu Chan, the son of the Prince of Hanzhong, that is, their current highest commander came to Wanling City in person.

However, the city gate captain was still very cautious, and quickly asked Liu Chan to wait for a while, and he immediately sent someone to inform Deng Ai to come.In other words, the captain of the city gate had to wait until Deng Ai came to formally confirm his identity before opening the city gate to Liu Chan and the others.

After the white-eared guard came back and reported to Liu Chan, Zhang Fei immediately became furious and scolded: "That bastard dares to be presumptuous! Since we have already set up a banner here, how dare he not let us enter the city! See if I won't go!" Teach that bastard a lesson!"

Then, Zhang Fei called his captain of the guard over, and followed him with Zhang Fei's banner.Then, you have to take your own guards to go forward and teach people.

But Liu Chan immediately stopped Zhang Fei, told Zhang Fei not to be so impulsive, and persuaded him, "Third Uncle, don't be impulsive. Now Wanling City has not received the news that our army has defeated Sun Quan's army, so it is inevitable to act so cautiously." What's more, the position of the captain of the city gate is related to the safety of a city, the more cautious he acts, the more responsible he will be for the lives and property of the soldiers and civilians in the city, we should not blame him for the investigation."

But Zhang Fei said: "Nephew A Dou, you have already raised the flag here, but that bastard still wants us to wait for Deng Ai to come. This Deng Ai is really arrogant, how can there be such a reason!"

Liu Chan still smiled and said: "Deng Ai is one of my attendants, the captain of the city gate must have thought that Deng Ai must be able to confirm our identity. It can be seen that this person is actually very careful."

When Zhang Fei saw him say this, Liu Chan excused him, and couldn't help but shouted: "Nephew A Dou, you just have a too good temper, if you can't control such a bastard in the future, don't regret it! "

Liu Chan still did not change his smile, and said: "A good temper can lead to a long life, third uncle, please be safe and don't be impatient, I think Deng Ai will come soon, and then we can enter the city happily ah!"

When everyone heard Liu Chan say this, they all persuaded Zhang Fei to wait a little bit.Since Deng Ai was Shi Guangyuan's closed disciple, Shi Guangyuan had no choice but to persuade Zhang Fei with everyone.

Deng Ai got a report from the captain of the city gate, saying that a team of about a thousand people had come down from the city, and they first played the banner of the prince Liu Chan and wanted to enter the city.

How could Deng Ai dare to be negligent, he immediately stood up from his seat, and walked quickly towards the stables of the government office.

Halfway on the way, the second person sent by the captain of the city gate to report to Deng Ai also arrived, saying that among the pair of men and horses under the city, Zhang Fei's banner had just been raised again.

About a quarter of an hour later, Deng Ai finally boarded the top of the city, and sure enough, he saw the flags of Liu Chan and Zhang Fei flying among the pair of men and horses not far away, but he still couldn't see the heads clearly. .

Liu Chan knew that Deng Ai was very cautious by nature, so he turned his head and said to Zhao Feng behind him: "Zhao Feng, go up and tell Deng Ai to open the city gate quickly, and let us enter the city to rest."

Zhao Feng knew that Deng Ai was very familiar with him, so he was asked to let Deng Ai identify his identity, and after a promise, he rode his horse and galloped out.

When Zhao Feng came to the city and took off his helmet, Deng Ai saw that it was Zhao Feng.As Liu Chan's captain, Zhao Feng stayed by Liu Chan's side all year round.As soon as this person appeared, the prince Liu Chan must be in the team under the city.

Deng Ai didn't say anything more to Zhao Feng, he bowed his hands to Zhao Feng from a distance, and ordered the city gate captain to open the city gate.Then, he turned around and rushed down to the top of the city, stepped on his horse, and followed Zhao Feng to plead guilty to Liu Chan.

It is impossible for Liu Chan to care about these small things, and even thinks that Deng Ai has actually done a very good job in this regard.But Zhang Fei still felt uncomfortable. When Deng Ai bowed to him, he just snorted coldly, not wanting to see Deng Ai very much.

After Deng Ai greeted the generals and Shi Guangyuan, Liu Chan ordered the army to proceed. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it after entering the city.

When he came to the city gate, Liu Chan did not forget the loyal captain of the city gate, and ordered Deng Ai to reward him well.

After everyone came to the government office in Wanling City, the first thing Liu Chan had to do was not to ask Deng Ai to prepare the room, but to ask Deng Ai to quickly notify the troops in the city to prepare for the arrival of Yu Jin's army .Otherwise, if the preparations are too hasty, it may be difficult for little Wanling to cope with so many people.
