Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 91 The Yellow Flower in the Battlefield Is Extraordinarily Fragrant ([-])
The so-called "Looking at the mountains and running dead horses" means that the march between the mountains can never be as simple as looking at the straight-line distance.

Gao Yanchou naturally understood this principle. He took Wang Luan and the others and climbed up a hill with empty vegetation.

At this time, the sun has reached the top of everyone's heads, and the light is at the best time. Looking east from here, the situation of the mountain pass there is clearly visible.

To the west of Huanghua Valley is the valley bottom with relatively gentle slopes on both sides of the avenue.

After the Qinling Mountains, the biggest difference between the north and the south is in winter. The mountains and rivers in the south are evergreen, even in winter, they are green, and the changes are not so big. The mountains in the north are different, and changing seasons means changing colors.

Gao Yancuo looked at it for a long time. The Yellow Flower Valley was like a funnel, but the slopes on both sides were not that steep. There were sparse villages on the hillside. There were many scattered and fragmented fields around, and some people were busy with the autumn harvest.

"Jesusai, let's go straight out." Wang Luan suggested looking east.

However, Gao Yanchuan shook his head, pointed to the commoners who were still working in the fields in the distance, and said, "Look at those commoners."

The soldiers looked into the distance, and it seemed that they were just ordinary people.

Then someone puzzled: "Is it Zhou Jun's meticulous work?"

No one thinks that a few people are amazing.

Gao Yan's face was solemn: "Now the autumn harvest, these people are safely harvesting grain here, what will happen to them if other troops?"

Wang Luan and the others thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid I'll be borrowed."

The so-called borrowing is robbing. This is the reason why the army likes autumn most when fighting. It is possible to rob the people of food along the way. Especially since the chaos in the world at the end of the Tang Dynasty, not robbing is not in line with the military style, and it is difficult to adapt to the trend of the times.

"The Yellow Flower Valley has long been occupied by the Zhou army, but the people can harvest safely in autumn. At least it shows that the Zhou army near the Huanghua Valley has strict discipline and is very popular with the people. Once we are exposed, it is very likely that the local people will tell the Zhou army." Say.

"Eat the dog things inside and out. They are also the people of our Shu Kingdom. An dare to do this! Someone led someone to kill them all!" Wang Luan next to him was furious.

"Calm down!" Gao Yanchou scolded, "That's not an exposure."

"How about that?"

"Wait, wait a little closer, the whole army walks through the mountains on the south side, don't take the road, try to get as close to Taniguchi as possible, and send a few shrewd scouts out to find out where the Zhou Army's barracks are.

Let's make a surprise attack, and we can't be discovered early in the morning. "Gao Yanyu said seriously.

He is not a mediocre player on the battlefield. He knows that they are in such a long-distance attack, and after detouring to the enemy's side, they are in an isolated and helpless place. The most important thing is to fight quickly. If they are trapped here, the whole army will be very dangerous.

"It's all based on the commander's orders!" Everyone got the order and started to execute.

Gao Yancuo is a very confident person. He fought beautiful battles in his early years, and he was the one who repelled the soldiers of the Later Han Dynasty when they entered the Dasan Pass.

He has great confidence in Li Yangui's deployment and his own abilities.

Therefore, he would rather leave hundreds of soldiers in the mountains to die, ignore the complaints and dissatisfaction of the soldiers, and take the difficult north road to seek a better opportunity.

He believes that he can hit the spot, and in this case, all the sacrifices and efforts will be worth it.

On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the Double Ninth Day, Gao Yanyu made all the preparations.

The scouts found out that the Zhou army's turnover camp was on a hillside two miles away from Huanghuagu. On the east bank of the Jialing River, there were hundreds of tents and more than 30 horses. If they wanted to quickly enter the camp, they had to cross Cross the Jialing River.

Fortunately, this section of the river is not wide, and there is a big or small bend in the middle. The water flow is gentle, and there are many alluvial sand dunes that can be used for the army to cross the river.

Gao Yan's wife ordered the soldiers to cut wood in the mountains and forests, tied the straight wood with the rattan, and made a lot of rafts.

And the army has moved from the woods on both sides of the valley to a place about five miles south of Huanghua Valley. As long as they launch an attack, they can directly take the camp where Zhou Jun's turnover of food and grass is in half an hour.

However, they did not dare to approach any more, and if they moved forward, Zhou Jun might discover his whereabouts.

On the morning of the ninth day of September, the morning fog in Huanghua Valley has not yet dissipated.

Gao Yancuo let the soldiers eat and drink in the forest stream early. Some of the grain cakes they carried were moldy on the surface, but they were better than nothing.

The cured meat is better preserved, but the taste of the meat is completely lost. It is similar to dry wood dipped in salt. It is better to stuff more stuff in your stomach than empty it, at least you will have the strength to work hard later.

Gao Yan's concubine convened the commanders and envoys to discuss matters temporarily. Everyone knelt down on the thick pile of rotten leaves and conducted the last pre-war mobilization in the forest.

"Everyone, the success or failure of this battle depends on today!

It is done, we can drive the Zhou army out of the Dasanguan, if it is not done, Hanzhong is in danger, Chengdu is in danger!In the state of Shu, all your wives, children and children will not be protected. "Gao Yanyu's face was solemn.

The commanders and generals also became serious.

"Don't worry, Jieshuai, I'll wait to know the seriousness of the matter." Wang Luan agreed, and everyone nodded.

Seeing this, Gao Yanchou didn't say any more, and put on a horse and led the team in person, and the troops marched through the fog and the bottom of the valley, and no longer concealed their whereabouts.

There is a lot of slippery moss at the bottom of the valley, and it is easy to slip on it, but with so many people walking, it is quickly ground into a thin layer of black mud.

Gao Yancuo and Wang Luan led five hundred cavalry in front of the formation to lead the way, and acted as the vanguard themselves.

The army in the rear followed like a tide, moving forward along the road and the fields on both sides.

Some wheat that had not been harvested on the roadside was trampled into the soil, and the roadside fields were trampled firmly.

On the mountainside in the distance, there are a few more courageous people looking carefully here, probably the farmers who got up early noticed the movement in the valley, but did not dare to approach.

Months of depression and patience finally broke out at this time, Gao Yanyu was so excited, and many soldiers held their breath.

Gao Yancuo personally led the army to the east. As long as he rushed out of Huanghua Valley, which is the Zhou army camp, he could cut off the Zhou army's grain route, and cut off the Zhou army's grain and grass under the front line Fengzhou City, and fell into a dead place!

In front of the Yellow Flower Valley, a small river with gentle water flows in the north, with gentle slopes on the left and right sides. The dense trees on the slope head block the morning light, and there are sparse beams of light passing through, directly illuminating the valley.

On both sides of the road, the mountains and wild grasses grow, with a depth of half a waist. There are many yellow wild chrysanthemums among the weeds, and the flowers are splendid and overwhelming.

The unique fragrance of wild chrysanthemum permeates the valley, wafting for miles.

The milky white mist is still there, the morning dew on the petals on the roadside has not yet dispersed, and the morning sun is trapped in it, making it crystal clear and colorful.

The whole valley road is like a fairyland on earth, a paradise, and even the soldiers of the Shu Kingdom have become much quieter. They deliberately avoided the yellow flowers on both sides of the road, for fear of breaking the ethereal charm.

"Someone knows why this place is called Yellow Flower Valley." Wang Luan said in a muffled voice.

There are yellow flowers all over the mountains, wild chrysanthemums in autumn, and an ancient road of yellow flowers, but Gao Yanyu thought of something else.
"When autumn comes on September [-]th, I will kill all the flowers in full bloom; the fragrance of the sky will penetrate Chang'an, and the city will be covered with golden armor."

Gao Yanyu rode on horseback, holding the reins, the beginning of the chaos in the world, how could these people not remember it fresh?
However, that was a distant past, and now there are only some details left for future generations to talk about, and few people can tell what happened at that time.

"Let's go quickly, Zhou Jun is in front."
