Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1265

Although the battlefield at Jishi Mountain has subsided, the entire battle in the northwest has just begun.

The Northern Army is already under siege.

But it's not hopeless.

The Mu army is currently preparing to encircle on three sides, but it is still unknown whether they can keep the Northern Army and whether they can behead Zhang Xiu.

On the boundary line between Shaodang Qiang and Baima Qiang.

The main force of the Mu army is ready to go, sharpening their knives, as long as there is an order, they will immediately rush in, go straight to the main camp of the Northern Army, and kill a blood flow.

But Zhang Liao was still holding on.

He is still waiting.

He won't act easily if he doesn't wait for the news he wants. Now that the Northern Army is already in the cage, there is little chance of rushing out.

"General!"

A lieutenant came in a hurry: "Jing Wusi sent a message from Jishi Mountain!"

"When?"

"A quarter of an hour ago!"

Zhang Liao quickly opened the message.

"Password?" Zhang Liao frowned.

Jingwu Division's transmission of news is a must in the army, not only fast, but also the safest, which has a lot to do with Jingwu Division's channels and methods.

Jing Wusi built secret stations all over the world, the purpose is to deliver news quickly.

Many of these dark stations are covered by shops.

After spending countless money and time, Tan Zong built the entire dark web, even if it is only from north to south, generally speaking, within three days, it will definitely be delivered.

If it is an urgent channel, it can be done in a day and a half.

This is Jing Wusi's advantage. In the whole world, no one can compare with Jing Wusi in this respect.

And the so-called way.

Inspired by Mujing, Tan Zong collaborated with people from the Hongdu School of Learning Yi to create a set of encryption methods to ensure that when the message is transmitted, even if it is captured, the secret will not be leaked.

"Decipher it immediately!" Zhang Liao said to a general beside him.

This is the general in charge of the news.

"Yes!"

The general compared it with the codebook given by Jing Wusi, and it was not difficult to decipher it.

In this day and age, even though Mujing has given Tan Zong a lot of inspiration, the encryption method is still very simple, nothing more than a combination of numbers and words, as long as there is a codebook, it can be easily deciphered.

Of course, because of the backwardness of the times, even such a method is the best in the world, and it is endowed with a layer of mystery, adding a lot of prestige to Jing Wusi.

"General, we have deciphered it!" Within a quarter of an hour, the general sent the translation to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao glanced at it, and his eyes lit up slightly.

"it is good!"

He didn't expect Min Wu to give himself such a big surprise.

Originally, he was supposed to put all his main force into the Jishishan battlefield, and then turn his troops around after the Jishishan battle was over, but the changing situation caused him to deviate from his plan.

In particular, the appearance of the Northern Army restrained his main force.

What Min Wu can use is only the Shenlang Battalion in his hand, and the Cavalry Battalion he reinforces at critical times.

With only two battalions of troops, the entire Xiqiang tribe was taken down.

This is something that is in the plan, something that I dare not even think about. After all, it is the ancient and secluded Xiqiang tribe. If hundreds of tribes work together, hundreds of thousands of elites can be produced in an instant.

The shepherd army even had to come out in full force to be able to fight.

Otherwise, the Qiang people were hard to deal with. For hundreds of years, they fought and fought, no matter how many times they surrendered, the flames of war on this frontier never stopped.

This has already explained the strength of the Qiang people.

But now...

There is an old saying, but it is appropriate for the occasion. The strongest fortress can always be broken from the inside.

Zhang Liao suddenly understood Mu Jing.

Why did you recruit Menghuo Shamoke and the others, and why did you value Min Wu so much? These people's abilities may not be the best, but their identities determine their effectiveness.

"Come on!"

"exist!"

"Order the chief generals and deputy generals of the two battalions of Zhanhu and Wuxi to go to our camp immediately to participate in the military situation meeting!"

"promise!"

In less than half an hour, most of the chief generals above the rank of Marquis of the two battalions, except those who had to stay behind, had rushed to Zhang Liao's main tent.

"Everyone!"

Zhang Liao cut to the chase: "The opportunity has come, we are going to attack!"

"now?"

Lei Hu's eyes were hunting, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"Ok!"

Zhang Liao nodded and asked, "The soldiers of your two battalions also suffered a lot of injuries in the previous battle. How has their fighting strength recovered?"

"More than [-]% of it has been recovered!"

"Fight without fear!"

The two captains clapped their hands and answered.

"That's good!"

Zhang Liao pointed at the sand table and said, "Our mission is not to fight the Northern Army, nor is our goal Zhang Xiu!"

"why?"

Lei Hu was puzzled.

"There are people in Zhangxiu who will deal with them. We have our task!" Zhang Liao responded calmly. He pointed to the sand table and went up slowly along the northwest, all the way to a line in Longqi City: "Our task is to start from here. Go all the way north, fight up!"

"Is this all the Shaodang tribe?"

Everyone's eyes are shining.

"Correct!"

Zhang Liao said, "We're going to destroy the burning department!"

"Destroy one part?"

All the generals couldn't help but gasped.

The Shaodang tribe is located in Xiqiang, and it is also a large tribe. Although it has a tendency to decline, it still has a strong foundation. If all the people are soldiers, there are dozens of sub-tribes under its command, and there are tens of thousands of people.

The expedition is insufficient, but the defense is still capable.

"Don't worry, it's not just us!" Zhang Liao said, "Shenlang Battalion, Cavalry Battalion, and Qiang soldiers, at least [-] main forces, are already preparing to go north from Jishi Mountain. We will fight from the northeast, and they will go from south to west." Sweep, as soon as possible, sweep away the burn!"

Burning is the only reliance of the Northern Army.

Once the Burning Department is wiped out, the Northern Army can only fight desperately. If they want to seize it, they may not be able to escape.

"This battle is about the ownership of the Northwest and the loyalty of the Qiang people to the Minghou Mansion. I am determined to win!" Zhang Liao said angrily: "From now on, the order is prohibited!"

"Yes!"

The generals suddenly became solemn, waiting for the military order.

"Thunder Tiger!"

"exist!"

"You personally lead the first, second, third, and third parts of the Zhanhu Battalion. As the vanguard, you will pull out the camp overnight and march fifty miles a night. Go north from here, follow this road, and fight all the way. After dawn, you must Attack these two tribes and pull out the portal tribes on these two frontiers!"

"Leader!"

Lei Hu nodded.

"Samoke!"

"exist!"

"You and I lead the main force, wait for Leihu to pull out these two nails, and immediately drive straight in, without giving the Burning Ministry any chance, we must take down this territory, more than ten tribes!"

Zhang Liao said firmly.

"promise!"

The military order was issued, and the action was quickly mobilized.

....................................

Burn Dang Qiang.

big elm.

Burn the lair of the Ministry.

Surrounded by good pastures for sheep herding, there are at least seven or eight tribes here, and no less than tens of thousands of Shaodang tribesmen survive.

Shaodang was only a small tribe from the generation of Dayun Valley on the north bank of the Yellow River. Until the rise of Dianliang, the leader of the Shaodang tribe, he united more than ten tribes, defeated the original Xianlingwang tribe, and seized the middle of Dayu.

This is the hundreds of years of brilliance that has burned the Ministry.

If the Xianling tribe is the tribe with the deepest history of the Western Qiang court, then the Shaodang tribe is the fastest rising tribe.

In the 200 years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were nine Qiang kings.

From Dianliang to Beigong Boyu.

The Shaodang tribe is also the tribe that fought the most fiercely with the Han people. The 200 years of war have strengthened the strength of the Shaodang tribe.

If it hadn't been for the defeat of Beigong Boyu back then, which led to the disastrous defeat of Shaodang elite in Liangzhou, today's Xiqiang tribe would have no place for other tribes to speak.

You know, Yue Hu, Lang Xiao, the strong men in these tribes were all subordinates of Beigong Boyu.

Although in recent years, due to the lack of strength of Tadu, the strength of Shaodang's department has been declining day by day, especially after Tadu lost to Yuehu, the morale of Shaodang has been even lower.

But this does not mean that the burning department has no strength.

Aggressiveness may not be enough.

But there are still guards.

Tadu took away tens of thousands of the most elite warriors in the tribe, but the tribe still has tens of thousands of troops in reserve. These are the most elite warriors defending the tribe, and they are stationed in Dayu.

Apart from Tadu, there are also several leaders who can talk in the burning department.

One of them is named Mafeng.

He is the leader inherited from the lineage of Manu, King of Burning Qiang in the past, and he was also a general under the command of Beigong Boyu in the past.

Ma Feng is receiving a Han Chinese.

"Li Wenyou, Dong Zhuo has already been defeated, you still dare to enter my camp, are you not afraid that I will kill you?" Ma Feng stared at Li Ru with a pair of dead fish eyes.

He is no stranger to Li Ru.

At the beginning, many tribes cooperated with Dong Zhuo. Otherwise, Dong Zhuo would not be so stable in Xiliang, and he would still have the strength to attack the Central Plains. Without the support of the tribes, he would not even have the ability to walk out of Xiliang.

Of course, these tribes simply cooperated with Dong Zhuo, and each took what they needed, which was not as good as the relationship between the White Horse Department and Dong Zhuo, which also led to the rapid rise of the White Horse Department among the various ministries.

"Leader Mafeng, I have no hostility. I'm here to save you and burn the party!" Li Ru smiled lightly, and he had a way of fooling the people of the Central Plains. If he can't be persuaded, he is not worthy to be the number one strategist under the old action.

"What do you mean?" Ma Feng was really fooled.

"Leader Mafeng, do you know that the leader of Tadu went to Jishi Mountain here, but he never returned. Minghou, a Han Chinese, had already set his sights on Jishi Mountain. If the Wolf Department leads the herdsmen into Jishi Mountain, Tadu will definitely die!"

"impossible?"

Ma Feng said coldly: "Who dares to betray the tribe in front of the gods, isn't he afraid of being punished by the gods?"

Qiang people have a respectful attitude towards gods.

"Maybe it's impossible. In fact, Chief Mafeng knows best in his heart!"

"Even so, it is impossible for him, Min Wu, to become the King of Qiang. Not to mention the various tribes, even the White Horse tribe will not accept him!"

"Leader Mafeng, you underestimate the Han people. The White Horse Department may have already been bought by the Han Minghou!" Li Ru said coldly, "Otherwise, how could they give up Baima Mountain so easily!"

"No way!"

At this moment, Ma Feng had no choice but to doubt.

"If that's the case alone, I wouldn't bother with Chief Mafeng, but there is one more thing that may not be clear to the Chief, so I'll let the Chief know!"

Li Ru smiled lightly and said: "Not only will the pagodas die in Jishi Mountain, I am afraid that the Han Minghou will not let go of the fire department. Now the main force of the herding army under the command of the Han Minghou has already fought with the Xiliang rebel Ma's. Ma Chao got in touch, they are encircling the north and the south, attacking the Burning Ministry, and the leader should make preparations!"

"What you said is true!"

This time, Ma Feng was absolutely unable to sit still.

"Is it true, the scouts of your tribe will find out if they check it out!" Li Ru's words were half-truth, half-false, he had taken out the Beidi army, so the goal of the Mu army was already obvious.

"impossible!"

Ma Feng took a deep breath.

Although he didn't quite believe Li Ru's words, he still summoned the leaders of various ministries to discuss countermeasures in the camp for the sake of caution...

And while they were still discussing countermeasures, news came back from the frontier tribes.

from the northeast direction.

Several tribes of Didao near Longxi brought back a piece of news.

Ma Chao, a Han Chinese, led his army to cross the border, and had already crossed the border, from Didao in Longxi to Shaodangbu all the way in, advancing more than a hundred li.

This news was a blow to the head, and the leaders of the burning department had no choice but to believe Li Ru's words.

The tribe is between life and death.

The fighting spirit suddenly surged.

The Qiang people are rebellious, the more oppressed they are, the more they rise up. Many years ago, their ancestors relied on fighting the Han people to make the tribe rise.

Headed by the Shaodang Manu tribe, around Dayu, with a radius of more than a hundred miles, the fifteen scattered tribes of Shaodang quickly linked up, integrating [-] elites.

........................

Burning on the northern line.

The Northland Army is stationed.

Zhang Xiu paced back and forth. He believed that Li Ru could mobilize the troops of the burning army to come for reinforcements, but there was a problem with the timing, because the scouts had just reported that Ma Chao's main force was less than 150 miles away from them.

"It seems that if you don't fight, you won't be able to escape!"

Zhang Xiu raised his head and looked at the heavens. This time, he made a wrong choice, but he was somewhat regretful. Burning the current department was obviously not a good ally, and the first zero department also disappointed him a little.

In the northwest, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold.

"General, Longxi Pioneer, is within eighty miles of us!" The scout captain came to report again.

"Who will be the general?"

"Ma Chao!"

"He personally led the vanguard?" Zhang Xiu narrowed his eyes.

"Our scouts won't be mistaken, this person is Ma Chao!" The scout captain said, "I went to see it personally. His vanguard has less than [-] troops, but the speed is moderate and not weakened!"

"So confident!"

Zhang Xiu said coldly: "In that case, I will meet him for a while!"

"Come on!"

"exist!"

"Immediately send my military order, five thousand vanguard soldiers, assemble!"

"promise!"

The beating drum sounded quickly.

The [-] Northern Land Army assembled and left the camp with a bang.

Another three hours later, between a mountain stream, a small river confronted each other, and the Northern Army and the Longxi Army faced each other on the banks of the river, swaying against each other.

The fighting spirit gradually rose.

The war is about to start.

The two main generals had flames lit in their eyes.
