Chapter 338 Immortal Map
A new pass city was built about a hundred steps in front of Dashan Pass. The area of ​​the new pass city is larger than that of Dashan Pass.

There were [-] gold soldiers stationed in Xinguan City, no tents were set up, and all the barracks were built of bricks and stones. Wanyan Wushu recruited [-] craftsmen, and it took half a year to build this Guancheng.

From the day when Xinguan City was built, Jin Bing launched a repressive attack on Dashanguan. Gunpowder arrows and long-distance trebuchets attacked Dashanguan almost every day, regardless of day and night.

After more than a month of uninterrupted blows, the general morale of the Song army was low, and their confidence in holding the pass was lost.

In the commander's tent, Wu Jie was pacing back and forth distractedly. Liu Zan, the guard of Beixianren Pass, sent a letter asking for help from the eagle ten days ago, but there was no more news.

Wu Jie hurriedly asked Zhu Shengfei for instructions to send troops to support Beixianrenguan, but he waited six full days before getting Zhu Shengfei's approval. I didn't have any hope, and after six days of delay, my hope had long since been shattered.

Wu Jie was really helpless. Zhu Shengfei firmly controlled the military power, and any transfer of more than [-] people had to be consulted with him. Zhu Shengfei built a military intelligence office in Dashanguan, and his confidant and aide Fu Jingyi was in charge.

Fu Jingyi was not only a liaison officer, but also a former military supervisor, monitoring Wu Jie's every move. If Wu Jie and others complained, Fu Jingyi would complain to Zhu Shengfei, saying that Wu Jie was dissatisfied with the court and had too much ambition.

In fact, the root cause is that Fu Jingyi asked Wu Jie for bribes many times but was rejected. He harbored hatred for Wu Jie's brothers.

In fact, Wu Jie was entrusted by Emperor Zhao Gou as the Jiedu Envoy of the Yongxing Army. According to the regulations of the court, the Jiedu Envoy can have an army of his own and is not subject to civil restraint. Due to the severe situation, a compromise had to be made, allowing Jiedushi to recruit troops to fight against the Jin soldiers, and Wu Jie could also recruit an army to fight against the Jin soldiers.

Zhang Jun, the former Xuan Fu envoy, took a flexible approach. After entering the wartime, he temporarily authorized Wu Jie to take full responsibility for fighting the Jin soldiers. Zhang Jun himself retreated to Chengdu and only cared about logistical support.

But Zhu Shengfei did not follow the rules, completely deprived Wu Jie of the power to command the army, and destroyed the original intention of the court to confer Wu Jie as the governor of the Yongxing Army. Although Zhang Jun raised this issue with the emperor Zhao Gou several times, Zhu Shengfei's backer It was the queen mother, and with the queen mother supporting Zhu Shengfei, Zhao Gou had no choice but to acquiesce in Zhu Shengfei's illegal behavior.

Of course, this also has something to do with Wu Jie's own weakness. If he can be as tough as Chen Qing and ignore Zhu Shengfei's tricks, Zhu Shengfei will not be able to take away his military power.

Wu Jie lost his military power, and many of his subordinates were dissatisfied with him. Wu Jie was in a very awkward situation. He had to appease his subordinates and at the same time carry out Zhu Shengfei's various unreasonable orders. In just half a year, half of his beard and hair were gray.

At this time, some soldiers reported outside, "Little Wu Du is back."

Xiao Wu Dutong is Wu Ling, and Wu Jie is waiting for his news!

"Let him in!"

After a while, Wu Ling walked into the big tent quickly, and Wu Jie quickly asked, "How is Immortal Pass?"

"I didn't go there. I met Liu Zan who was seriously injured in Hechi County and rescued him."

"What about the pass?"

"It's already lost. Commander Pan Yue led his army to surrender Wanyan Wushu and sacrificed the pass."

"Bang!" Wu Jie slammed his fist on the table and said angrily, "I told him that Fu Xuan's people cannot be appointed as lieutenants, but he didn't listen, and said that I was jealous of the virtuous and capable. Now that I see it, the Northern Immortal is lost." , sooner or later we won’t be able to keep our big clearance.”

The man Wu Jie mentioned was Zhu Shengfei, the envoy of Xuanfu. A month ago, Zhu Shengfei appointed eight new commanders, six of whom were generals recommended by Fu Xuan, and Pan Yue was one of them.

Pan Yue was appointed as the deputy chief of Beixian Renguan and became Liu Zan's deputy general. Who would have thought that Pan Yue surrendered to the golden soldiers in just one month.

The entire Qinling pass is an interlocking defense system, and the failure of a pass will trigger a series of chain reactions.

The North Immortal Pass that has just been lost has been walking two hundred miles southwest to Hechi County, and from Hechi County to the southeast for about a hundred miles is the South Immortal Pass. This is a zigzag road, also called Qishan road.

The key point is Nanxianrenguan. Nanxianrenguan can go southeast to Nanzheng County, and also leads to Xingzhou. Xingzhou is the starting point of the west line of Jinniu Road, and you can enter Bashu directly along the west line of Jinniu Road. .

Obviously, Jin Bing had figured out the entire defense system of the Qinling Mountains, and Wu Jie was extremely suspicious that Fu Xuan had given the map to Wanyan Wushu.

Wu Jie asked anxiously again: "Have you sent troops to stay in Hechi County?"

Wu Ling nodded, "I sent Yang Zheng to lead [-] troops to guard Hechi County."

Hechi County is also a strategically important place, leading to Nanxianren Pass in the south, and leading to the back of Dashan Pass in the northeast through the old road.

If Yang Zheng can hold on to Hechi County, Dasan Pass will be safe for the time being, and Nanxianren Pass will be safe for the time being.

But what if Yang Zheng can't keep it?
Wu Jie was extremely worried, and he wanted to rush to Hanzhong immediately to report this serious incident to Zhu Shengfei in person.

Wanyan Wushu recently got a treasure given to him by Fu Xuan, "Eight Hundred Miles of Qinchuan-Shu Road Map".

This is not the old map in the Ministry of War of the Song Dynasty, but the military map of the passes made by Zhu Shengfei just a month ago. The number of people, garrison food, the situation of the main general, etc., are clearly marked, and even Fu Bing also marked his confidantes in each pass, so that the pass can be directly captured through his confidantes.

Wanyan Wushu is like a treasure. He did an experiment in Beixianren Pass not long ago, and ordered Wan Fuchang Han Chang to lead [-] troops to go to the West Valley to Beixianren Pass. This extremely dangerous pass was occupied with minimal cost.

Wanyan Wushu called this map the Immortal Map.

In the spacious and bright room, Wanyan Wushu was standing at the table studying his fairy map. Advisor Fan Gong pointed to Hechi County in the southwest of Beixianren Pass and said with a smile, "Why didn't the Marshal take down this county? Take it down, If you go north, you can attack the back of Dashan Pass, and if you go south, you can capture Nanxianren Pass. Once you capture Nanxianren Pass, you don’t even need to go to Hanzhong. You can go directly to Xingzhou and enter the west line of Jinniu Road. New Year in Chengdu."

Wanyan Wushu smiled and said: "This is the second time sir has reminded me, but I still stick to the original plan."

"The marshal is still in trouble?"

"Of course, if I don't capture the Dasan Pass and completely defeat Wu Jie, how can I get rid of the shame of my previous fiasco? This time I am not in a hurry at all, take my time and take my time step by step."

"When does the marshal plan to attack Dasanguan? I feel that the time is ripe."

"Wait a minute!"

Wan Yanwu said with a trace of helplessness in his expression: "I just received a quick letter from the wolf lord, saying that he was sent to take the blame and meritorious deeds. The wolf lord has already appointed him as the deputy marshal vanguard, hey! It's just that he doesn't want me to take all the credit for it." Full."

"This is the meaning of the Superintendent's Army! I heard that he wanted to enter Shu from the east in Jingxiang, but he was defeated by Chen Qing. Only he has a heart for the marshal, but Lord Wolf listens to him."

"You're wrong. Lord Wolf sent Talan to sit in Jingxiang. After I invaded Bashu, Jingxiang and Bashu were joined together. I said before that Liu Yu's army was unreliable, but Talan believed in the Qi army. How could the Qi army be Chen Qing's opponent, and the result was not the same defeat?"

"This Chen Qing is haunted! Everywhere the Supervisory Army goes, they meet him."

Wanyan Wushu sneered and said, "This is Tarlan shooting himself in the foot. If he hadn't made a small move behind the scenes to transfer Chen Qing from Shaanxi as a condition for negotiation, how could Chen Qing be transferred to Huguang?" ? To be honest, I really hope that Chen Qing will also be in the big break this time, so that he can have a good taste of my iron fist!"
