Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 902 Wei County Meeting
Two days later, Xi Zhicai personally led the main force of the army, and the troops were divided into two groups, one into Zhuti City and the other into Hanyang.

More than a day later, the main force of the Dongzhou Army led by Huang Zhong and Zhang Ren, the Wuxi Barbarian Army, and the Zhanhu Camp, tens of thousands of main forces rushed back from Zangcang, successively occupied Yelang, Danzhi, and the main force entered Hanyang to meet Mujing .

Not long after, news came from Zhang Liao from the battlefield on the western front that Jingping's third army had occupied Yueyi Beishui.

At this time, the battle situation has become clear.

With Hanyang as the center, the [-] lions of the Mu army covered an arc, and the battle line was almost two thousand miles long. From east to west, they culled towards Yongchang County, Yizhou in an all-round way.

The fierce actions of Mu Jun made Yong Kai, Meng Huo, Gao Min and others very disturbed, and they rioted one after another.

The barbarians are increasing their troops.

Hundreds of thousands of barbarian youths are marching towards the battlefield.

The Yi tribe is also increasing their troops, and the tribe is young and strong, almost out of the nest.

And Yong Kai even did not hesitate to use military force to recruit young adults in Dianchi City, and even did not hesitate to tarnish his own reputation by violently recruiting young and middle-aged adults to join the army.

This shows their tough attitude.

Throughout Nanzhong, the wind was raging, and a war was imminent.

…………

Wei County, belonging to Yizhou County, is a small city between Yizhou and Qianwei, near the Jinsha River, and also a gateway to the north of Yizhou.

The quiet small town became chaotic because of the war.

When a military disaster comes, it will inevitably affect the innocent.

Many people began to flee the county, and the entire county seemed a little calm.

But in the past two days, it has become lively again. First, part of the main force led by the barbarian Meng Jie approached here, and then Yizhou County soldiers went north to camp outside the city.

Many people were surprised to find that at this time, the Mu army also quietly transported troops in, and set up camp in the northern suburbs of Wei County for ten miles.

The small Wei County has become a land of wind and cloud.

On the Jinsha River, the current is impatient.

A fleet headed south, led by three double-toothed warships, which were able to anchor safely in the impatient current. This new type of warship is definitely the most stable fighting ship at present. It is not as stable as a building ship, but it is far more stable than a fighting ship.

"My lord, this is the latest news that Yong Kai has been in Wei County, and the number of troops has increased by nearly [-]!"

Zhuge Xuan sent a report to the Jingwu Division: "The specific distribution of troops is still being checked, but the mountain roads of this generation are rugged. Compared with the barbarian army, some gods and ghosts have disappeared, and other soldiers and horses camped. The barbarian army has retained the main force, and I don't know where it is hiding in!"

"Didn't you say you want to talk!"

Mu Jing pinched the bridge of his nose and complained, "This Yong Kai is really dishonest!"

After saying something dissatisfied, he asked, "Is there any news about Lei Hu and Sha Moke?"

"Not yet!"

Zhuge Xuan began to complain about Mujing in his heart: You said it was a negotiation, didn't you have no sincerity?
It looked like a negotiation, but it was absolutely fruitless.

Because Mujing has already started to move.

The two main forces detoured into the hinterland, and Yizhou County was bound to be in chaos.

"My lord, I just went to inspect the terrain myself!" Huang Zhong stepped on the battleship with a burly body like a tiger, cupped his hands and said to Mu Jing, "The terrain around here is very complicated, with narrow trails, rugged mountain roads, nine twists and eighteen turns, and many twists and turns. It's easy to get dizzy after one turn, and if there is a fight, even if we have the upper hand, we may not be able to take advantage of it, but it will be easy to suffer!"

Originally, Mu Jing had planned to go south to Wei County to have a talk with Yong Kai, but Xi Zhicai sent Chen Dao to watch him closely and not let him take the risk of going south until Huang Zhong came back. With Huang Zhong personally accompanying him, Xi Zhicai was relieved.

Huang Zhong is one of the top three fierce generals in the world, but he can form an army with one person, and one of the ten thousand troops will go in and out three times. With him protecting Mu Jing, even if he is surrounded, he will not be in any serious trouble.

"My lord, I have also investigated the waterway ahead!"

Gan Ning also came up to report: "The next Menggui Beach, Hutou Bay, and Qizhuanlian Ferry are all easy to defend and difficult to attack. They can use weapons with long-range lethality to defend the terrain of the river. If they are blocked, Our fleet may encounter annihilation!"

"This Yong Kai is really thoughtful!"

Mu Jing narrowed his eyes: "Thousands of choices have been chosen, and this terrain has been chosen, so that we have the courage to negotiate with us!"

"My lord, does he mean that he is afraid of death?"

Xi Zhicai stayed in Hanyang and took charge of the main force of the army, while Chen Gong led the staff of the General Staff Division, moved the headquarters to the warship where Mu Jing was, and established an army with Mu Jing and Huang Zhong as the main generals Chen Gong. Front Command.

"It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I'm afraid of losing!"

Mu Jing said softly.

"Is there any difference?" Huang Zhong frowned.

"It's normal to be afraid of death, afraid of losing..." Mu Jing said flatly, "That's because he can't afford to lose!"

"I understand!"

Chen Gong's eyes lit up, and said: "In the current situation, the big families in Yizhou County are already nervous. If Yong Kai shows a little loss, it will inevitably cause a fire in the backyard, and then we will face us. With the attack and the instability in the backyard, he has no chance of winning at all, so no matter what he does, he must first maintain a situation where Yizhou will not lose, even if it is a sneak attack, it will not give us any chance!"

"Then let's fight first!" Gan Ning was full of fighting spirit. He lost the siege of Yizhou County soldiers in the previous ambush because he didn't think comprehensively. This made him always think about it. He wanted to find it himself.

"The distribution map of the soldiers in Yizhou County!"

Mu Jing let out a low snort.

"exist!"

Zhuge Xuan sent up a marching map, which was sent by Jing Wusi from the rear. Because of the rush of time, it was not very careful, but the distribution of troops in the terrain around Wei County for more than [-] miles still has a general direction. .

"Yizhou County has eight thousand soldiers, three thousand are in the county seat of Wei County, and the remaining five thousand are spread all over the east and south lines of the suburbs, and on the west line of Wei County are Mengjie's barbarian army, and the western suburbs are surrounded by water belts. The direction of the current strength of the barbarian army is not very clear, but Meng Jie's base camp should be here, Mount Hengtuo!"

Zhuge Xuan said carefully: "It's not far from our place, only about fifty miles away, and it can be arrived by surprise in half a day!"

"Meng Jie's military strength, have you checked it out?"

"There is no news for the time being, but at least no less than eight thousand!"

Zhuge Xuan said.

"No!" Mu Jing shook his head, "Meng Huo should be here!"

"what?"

Everyone was a little surprised.

Chen Gong asked: "Why?"

"Look at the deployment of their troops. This amount of troops is not enough to form their battlefield. If they don't have enough troops, they will definitely shrink their troops and will not lengthen the front. But now, from west to east, the front Aren't they afraid of being defeated by us after more than two hundred miles?"

Mu Jing said coldly: "So there must be troops, and Meng Huo is the only one who can control the troops in Nanzhong, except for Yong Kai. The most important thing is that in this negotiation, they Prepare for the worst, and if they fail to reach an agreement, what do you think they will do?"

"Ambush the lord?"

Chen Gong narrowed his eyes: "Do they have such courage?"

"You underestimate them too much. Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry. If people get in a hurry, no one can say what they will do!" Kill me here, and the crisis in Nanzhong will be solved!"

"I have to go and inspect the battlefield myself!"

Chen Gong stood up: "If they ambushed [-] to [-] troops, we should withdraw from Wei County as soon as possible, and perhaps let Hanyang and Zhu Ti's troops rush southward, so we can't take risks easily!"

"Not at all!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "It's good for you to survey the battlefield, but now is not the time for the army to move, either it will not move, or it will be defeated like a thunderbolt, we don't have so much time, and we don't have so many resources, waste it here! "

"My lord, I still want to enter Wei County and have peace talks with Yong Kai!"

"To talk!"

Mu Jing nodded: "Yong Kai wants to know himself and the enemy, and understand my mentality. I also want to delay for a while and give Lei Hu a cover. If he can successfully raid and enter Dianchi City, then the defense of Wei County , it is useless, we can directly surround Dianchi City with our troops!"

"It's too dangerous!"

"Where is it not dangerous!" Mu Jing said with a smile: "On the battlefield, the more afraid of death, the easier it is to die. I firmly believe that I will not die, and I will naturally not die. As for taking risks, as long as there are enough benefits, That's worth the risk!"

"If Xi Sima was here, he would definitely not allow it!"

"he's not here!"

Mu Jing said triumphantly.

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

Wei County.

"Is there any news?" Yong Kai was a little anxious. The Mu army kept suppressing Wei County. Wei County was already the best line of defense. If it was breached here, the entire Yizhou County would be reduced to a battlefield. At that time, regardless of success or failure, Yizhou County will be in ruins, and the chaos caused by war is the most damaging thing to the local economy.

"I have personally gone north to meet with people from Minghou's Mansion twice, and they just replied!"

Chief Shi Xu Min cupped his hands and said: "The Marquis of Ming has already gone south. Three days later, the suburb of Wei County, above Lu River!"

"On the water?"

Meng Huo sat beside him, and said coldly: "It seems that this Marquis Ming is also a man who covets life and fears death!"

"He didn't dare to enter the city, which is what I expected, but meeting on the water, it proves that they are very confident in their warships!" Yong Kai said: "It is rumored that there is a team of the Mu army that can fight against Jingzhou Jiangdong. The navy fighting for the front, it seems that this statement is true!"

"If I can guide them into the seven-turn chain ferry below, even if it is a powerful warship, I can wipe out their entire army!"

Meng Huo was full of confidence.

"Disaster!"

Yong Kai shook his head: "Don't they know how to assess the situation and the terrain, they must have checked the terrain, and know which places are the most dangerous, so they will not easily get involved!"

"Actually, I think that Marquis Ming has already arrived!"

Xu Min suddenly said: "If you send troops now, you may be able to catch them by surprise. If you can kill Minghou here, then the danger in Nanzhong will be solved!"

"You mean, Mulongtu is already in Wei County, but it can't be hidden?"

Yong Kai narrowed his eyes.

"Ok!"

Xu Min analyzed: "He is staring at us!"

"If we send troops now, can we kill them directly?" Yong Kai asked.

"Disaster!"

Meng Huo replied that he was not brave and foolhardy as written in the history books. He can be a hero because he has his own city. Meng Huo has his own analysis of the battlefield: "If they don't fight, they can retreat calmly, and There is an army behind them, we can't ask for any benefits!"

"It's not that there's no chance, it's just that it's too weak!" Meng Huo continued: "We are hiding soldiers, but they may also be hiding!"

"Then wait!"

Yong Kai's eyes became resolute: "I still hope to talk about it. If I can use my interests to force them to retreat, I don't want to fight with them. Mu Longtu is not Liu Junlang, this person is too strong!"

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

Three days later, on Lushui.

Lushui is the section where the Jinsha River goes south from Jiangyang to Dianchi Lake, so it is called Lushui.

A small boat, the two meet.

There are many arrays around.

"Minghou's Mansion, Mu Jing!" Mu Jing indifferently reported his family name.

"Prefect of Yizhou, Yong Kai!"

Yong Kai's eyes were sizing up the actual ruler of Yizhou. His first impression was that he was young, too young. Such a young hero is really rare.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk about?" Mu Jing was very straightforward.

"Minghou, our Nanzhong has no intention of being your enemy, but you directly set off a war and created civil strife in Yizhou. Aren't you afraid of letting outsiders take advantage of it!" Yong Kai looked at Mujing gloomyly.

As soon as Mu Jing opened his mouth, he put a lot of pressure on him. This kind of pressure was unprecedented. Even Liu Yan had never given him such a strong pressure back then, as if it could crush his waist.

"Not afraid!"

Mu Jing replied calmly: "Take care of the outside world first and settle down first. Yizhou does not allow the existence of second forces. Any force that does not submit to the Minghou Mansion will be killed without mercy!"

overbearing!

This is Yong Kai's second feeling.

"My Nanzhong four counties never said that we would rebel against Minghou's Mansion, and we never thought of being an enemy of Minghou's Mansion. Why should Minghou be aggressive and fight for a deadly situation!" Yong Kai said.

"The fish is dead and the net is broken?" The corners of Mu Jing's mouth slightly raised: "You think highly of you, the fish must die, but the net may not be broken!"

"It's a good thing for Marquis Ming to be confident, but don't underestimate us!"

Yong Kai said: "We have been operating in Nanzhong for many years, so what if we lose to you, at worst, we escape into the deep mountains and become enemies every year, so you can't wait for peace. I don't believe that your main force can stay here for a long time!"

"Said it right!"

Mu Jing shrugged: "If Meng Huo said this, it would be quite intimidating, but you, Yong Kai, are different. You belong to a wealthy family in Yizhou, and your family has lived in Dianchi City for many years. Among them, it is because the strength of the Yong family spreads all over the two counties of Yongchang in Yizhou, if you escape into the deep mountains, who will accompany you to endure hardships, those subordinates, the strength of the family's vassals, the tenants under their command, are still the family's soldiers!"

"Let me tell you, none of them know it. The Yong family who loses its deterrent power is worthless. If you escape into the mountains, you will not even have the qualifications to survive!"

Mujing sneered.

"You underestimate us too!" Yong Kai's face turned livid, not because of his anger, but because of his alleged weakness. Mu Jing is right, if Meng Huo still has a way out, then he has no choice but to defend Yizhou , or die in Yizhou, the Yong family has its roots in various counties in Yizhou, and without these counties, the Yong family is worthless.

"Whether I'm telling the truth or scaring you, you know it in your heart!"

Mu Jing lazily said: "What I can put in front of you, there are actually only two ways left, either surrender unconditionally and hand over the two counties of Yizhou and Yongchang, or go to war and fight one to bleed into rivers. There is no third way." road!"

"I can drop!"

Yong Kai said after a while, "But..."

"Listen clearly, surrender unconditionally!"

Mujing repeated it once.

"Minghou, don't bully people too much!" Yong Kai clenched his fists: "I may really not be able to die, but there are [-] troops behind me. If we die, we will surely bring tens of thousands of herdsmen to be buried with us! "

"threaten me?"

Mu Jing smiled and said: "Then there is nothing to talk about!"

"Minghou really doesn't want peace to be the most important thing!"

Yong Kai frowned.

Mu Jing didn't play cards according to the routine, which made him a little stunned.

"Peace is the most important thing!" Mu Jing said in a deep voice, "I think so too, but the premise is that Yizhou must be unified, and there is no need to negotiate the territory. Your Yong family really thinks that I am Liu Yan, Liu Yan. How can you be allowed to separatize Nanzhong in the name of surrender, but how did you deal with him in the end? When you fought in Jingzhou, you sent troops but did not contribute, and you stationed troops on the frontier without moving. Am I going to let it happen to me!"

He stood up, looking like a tiger, facing Yong Kai, and said coldly: "I am willing to talk to you today because I want you to know my determination. In this battle, my herdsmen almost came out with all their strength. Zhongsi County surrenders unconditionally, hand over all your control rights, or turn Nanzhong into ruins, no matter what, I will never allow someone to stab me in the back!"

Yong Kai's face was slightly pale.

He originally thought that he had looked up to this young man, but in the end he still underestimated him a little. Liu Yan could never express such arrogance in front of him. This kind of arrogance is not something that ordinary princes can say come out.

Thus, he also saw Mujing's determination.

"Since Marquis Ming is so determined, let's see each other on the battlefield!"

Yong Kai is Yong Kai after all, he can't surrender without a fight, and if he handed over the four counties of Nanzhong, the Yong family would have no room to survive, and if they were forced to this point, there was no way out, he stood slowly Get up, facing Mujing, said coldly: "But today, you, Minghou Mujing, may not be able to walk out!"

"Scare me!"

The corner of Mujing's mouth raised a devilish smile: "Yong Kai, if I dare to come, I can leave, or you can try it and see who can survive!"
