Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 33 Backstab, I will stab first
Afterwards, Liu Chan talked with Shen Zhong alone for a long time, and told him the details of the deployment of Jiangling City, the situation of guards and guards at Fenghou and the changing of guards, the guards at the city gates, etc. that he had learned from Guan Ershu.

By the way, I hand-drawn a sketch of Jiangling city defense, and handed it to him together with the "Procedure for defending Jiangling" that I had prepared before coming to Jingzhou.

"Things are dead, but people are alive. Even if the process I wrote may not be completely consistent with what you see, you still need to observe the real situation in the city on weekdays, compare the two, and act cheaply."

"Yes!" After Shen Zhong said, seeing that there were only two of them, he finally couldn't help asking, "Gong Si, Li Er and Hu Li are smarter than me, such an important matter... I am not afraid of death, I just I'm afraid I'll miss your important event!"

In the middle of the speech, he himself became anxious, blushing and added something.

"Don't think too much." Liu Chan patted him on the shoulder, "The ruler is short and the inch is long. You have to trust me to see people. Since the task is entrusted to you, you only need to think about how to complete it."

Shen Zhong nodded and said yes, he may not be very confident at this time, but he absolutely believes in Liu Chan.

After explaining the matter of staying in Jiangling, Liu Chan should be ready to go.

"Officer Zhao, are the supplies for the ship ready?"

"Don't worry, young master, everything you need is ready. Based on what I saw last time, it is expected that the Soochow defenders will not find out."

Liu Chan nodded. Zhao Guanshi has always acted cautiously. Since he said so firmly, he should be foolproof.

In the afternoon, Liu Chan and the remaining 500 people boarded the ship in batches in civilian clothes, and scattered on the merchant ship of Manager Zhao to serve as husbands and guards.

As soon as Zhao Guanshi arrived in Jiangling, he contacted other companies that planned to go to Soochow for business, and made an appointment to go together today.

In this turbulent era, especially when there were a lot of bandits in Soochow, it was a dream for other merchants to be able to go with the Zhao family's firm with strong defense forces.

Liu Chan's armor and weapons were mixed in, and a large number of merchant ships covered him without knowing it.

As for the horses, they are a kind of goods, and they just need to pass the customs openly.

The so-called "crossing the river in white clothes" does not mean that everyone is dressed in white clothes and pretends to be an assassin like wearing sackcloth and filial piety.

In fact, Baiyi here almost means commoner, that is, let the elite men pretend to be businessmen.

With the standard answer in front of him, Liu Chan was naturally happy to copy his homework, so he played this trick first before Lu Meng.

Of course, there are still differences in strategic goals. I have no whimsy to rely on 500 people to capture Soochow City at this time.

Don't say it can't be done at all, even if it can be done, it is meaningless, it will only disrupt one's own strategic direction with one bad move.

"My lord, we can just enter Wu through Lukou. Baqiu and Lukou are both gates of Soochow Wu, but Baqiu is adjacent to Dongting Lake, which is an important place for Soochow to practice naval forces. The fleet rushed to many places." Something is wrong."

Liu Chan nodded: "You have already walked through it once, just arrange the route yourself."

"Yes."

At this time, Liu Chan was observing the land and water topography and routes, comparing them with his abstract map, and prepared to draw a more detailed topographic map himself after going through this experience.

Stepping on the spot and using the enemy-occupied area to train troops by the way is the goal of my operation this time.

……

In fact, crossing the river in white clothes this time went smoother than he expected.

At this time, the Sun and Liu families couldn't help doing business, and the companies were all old acquaintances, and the deals were quite generous. The goods on the merchant ship were only inspected by the Soochow defenders before they were released.

Old Zhao threw a few urns of good wine over, and the defenders laughed so hard that they almost saw their back molars...

After arriving at Lukou, the huge team parted ways.

Liu Chan and his party changed from traveling by boat to traveling by car and horse, and traveled all the way to the southwest.

Their route was to go to Luo County first, and then take a boat from Luo County to go south along the Xiangshui River, so that they could bypass Dongting Lake and go straight to Linxiang County, the seat of Changsha County.

Linxiang at this time is the Changsha City of later generations, but it is not in the same place as Linxiang of later generations.

Of course, the main purpose of this trip was to visit Dr. Zhang, not to attack the city.

But along the way, as long as they stay away from the city, Liu Chan's team will start to march according to wartime standards.

Of course, all kinds of flags were replaced with five-color flags without characteristics, and it was impossible to tell which army it was from the appearance.

With [-] regular troops as the backbone, play the role of mentoring and leading, and train recruits such as Hu Li.

This was the first formal march for Hu Li and others. Although they practiced hard on weekdays, it was only a month or so after all, and many details were still lacking compared to veterans.

"Hu Li! How many times have I said that the waist and the horse are one! Swing your hips up, and don't move your upper body!" Li Er followed Hu Li, patiently teaching the temporarily promoted village chief equestrian skills.

In fact, Hu Li has made great progress.

Equestrian skills cannot be achieved quickly, and other soldiers can only ride slowly in a month.

It will take at least several months to gallop wildly.

As for proficiency in fighting on horseback, and even guaranteeing a certain accuracy in riding and shooting, it must be calculated in years.

"You! As a super commander, you must always pay attention to the formation and military flags when marching. Once there are orders, you need to lead your subordinates to complete them in time. Don't always stare at your feet!"

"Yes!"

The army array is not just a square of [-] spearmen, a square of [-] archers...as simple as in the game.

Others' subordinates don't know, but at least Liu Chan's subordinates who have followed Zhuge's military master for many years and studied with great concentration are not like that.

Most of the time, a Shichang has both spearmen, sword shieldmen, and archers and crossbowmen under his command.

Each of the smallest combat units has both close-range and medium-range strike capabilities, and then changes to form larger arrays according to the needs of the battlefield.

Moreover, Liu Chan's soldiers, spears, knives, bows and crossbows will be trained to ensure that they can switch at any time.

Therefore, the requirements for every junior military officer are not low.

These also need practice to exercise.

Now Liu Chan is much more relaxed. At the beginning, he could only do these things by himself.

At this time, he continued to observe the terrain and landforms, and further improved the map based on reports from several scouts.

Ok?
The scouts in the east-north direction sent a warning signal.

"stop!"

As soon as the order is issued, it is immediately transmitted through the command system composed of officers and flags, and the army stops in response to the sound, and feeds this information back to the scout team.

After a while, the scouts in a group of three immediately reported one by one.

"Report! Major General, there are mountains in front of our team, there is smoke in the mountains, the birds are far away, and the sound of shouting can be faintly heard, it seems that there is a war!"

"Oh? Have you ever found out the truth?"

"The distance is still far away, and it cannot be detected."

"The team turned to the northeast and moved slowly, and then checked and reported again."

"Yes!"

Dare to move forward to make do with it, but also based on common sense and information.

The pressure on Soochow at this time comes from Uncle Guan to the west of the Xiangshui River, and Sun Quan's Happy City to the north of the Lujiang River-the Cao Wei Yuzhou Front Army on the Hefei side.

The massing of heavy troops is also based on these two aspects. If you enter Changsha County by yourself, you will not encounter a large number of Sun Wu troops.

In addition, what happened was in the mountains again.

There are many mountains in Wudi, and Shanyue is not a specific race, but a collective name for bandits in this area.

Some of them are exiles, some are wealthy families who were defeated in war, and some are ethnic minorities. These people refused to obey the constraints of Sun Wu's rule and went into the mountains to resist the government with arms.

According to my own memory, Sun Quan at this time should have followed Lu Xun's suggestion, and launched a vigorous anti-crime campaign internally like himself-suppressing bandits.

"Report! Major General, there is a bandit stronghold in the mountains, and the Wu army is pulling out the stronghold at this time."

really.

"Are there any back-ups and guards at the foot of Wu Jun's mountain, are there secret sentries and scouts?"

"No."

Liu Chan curled his lips secretly, he was so fucking unprofessional.

"Approximately how many Wu troops are attacking the village? How about their equipment?"

"There should be hundreds of people, but there are quite a few who wear armor." After the scout finished speaking, he added with a smile, "... Judging from his fighting style, he doesn't look like an elite."

If you have something to say, you'd better speak it straight, as it's easy to get internal injuries if you hold it back...

It seems to be something like county soldiers.

Liu Chan's eyes rolled, and he decisively decided to take a ginseng kick, but pride can't breed.

So he put on a straight face and said, "Although the Soochow Army... is a little weaker. But it is an official army after all, so don't underestimate the enemy."

"Yes, my subordinates are wrong."

After Liu Chan finished speaking, he waved his hands and said, "The whole army put on armor, lowered their flags and drums, and prepared to enter the mountain! After entering the mountain, follow my orders and wait for the opportunity to attack the Wu army."

Now that the weather is getting hotter, it is not like before. If you march in armor, you will be tired before you can fight.

This is why scouts need to be spread out to avoid ambushes while unarmored.

As soon as he finished speaking, several prompts popped up immediately under Liu Chan's vision.

[In enemy territory, trigger "survive from death"]

[All-terrain suitability improved to: excellent]

[Physical improvement to: Extraordinary Physique]

When the general ordered, the whole army immediately followed the order.

This is the benefit of private soldiers. No one questioned why they backstabbed their ally Wu Jun.

They only recognize Liu Chan, whoever Liu Chan says to fight, they will fight, who cares what kind of army he is!

In this way, Liu Chan's troops put away the general drum and the five-color flag, and the whole army quickly marched towards the northeast mountains...
