The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 291 Crossing the Wei River
"Grumbling..."

Outside the camp of the Chinese army, a large pot was placed on the fire, and the sound of boiling water was quite loud, which seemed to be full of posture.

Dare Chen Qun couldn't help smiling when he saw this after entering Ma Teng's tent.

"With this pot, are you trying to cook me? Unexpectedly, the majestic Ma Shoucheng is such a cowardly person, and my lord even regards him as an opponent."

Smiling calmly, Chen Qun didn't say much at all, and strode out directly into the big tent of the Chinese army, making everyone who heard this look cold.

Originally, Ma Teng's battle made Xiliang soldiers quite novel and excited, so where is there left at this time?
In fact, Ma Teng's complexion at this time was also not good-looking, and Chen Qun's voice was not small, and it had already been introduced into the main account of the Chinese army.

"Ha ha……"

Slowly stepping into the large tent, Chen Qun chuckled again.

"I don't know if there are five hundred school swordsmen behind the account? If there are, please come and see."

Hearing Chen Qun's words, everyone's face darkened even more. It was Chen Qun laughing at Ma Tengjun.

Of course, Ma Teng would not arrange five hundred school swordsmen, Chen Qun was just a scribe, and he still came to envoy, that big pot was already a threat to him, so why do we need more arrangements?
"Chong!"

At this moment, Pang De suddenly drew his sword and shouted loudly.

"There are no school swordsmen, but a certain Pound has a knife. Do you want to see if a certain knife is sharp?"

The shining blade barely swayed in Chen Qun.

Although Chen Qun was not afraid, but he understood that what he said was already at the point, and it should not be more exciting, so he just smiled lightly, and instead of responding, he turned his head to look at Ma Teng, and said with a cupped hand .

"Chen Changwen met General Ma Teng."

"Ling Ming."

Although Ma Teng was annoyed in his heart, he still maintained his demeanor. He first let Pang De put away the long knife, and then looked at Chen Qun before speaking.

"Yingchuan Chen Changwen, I've heard of it, but I don't think you're also under that Wei Tao's command."

"A good bird chooses a tree to live in. My lord has great ambitions. I want to protect the balance of my great Han forever and not be invaded by foreign enemies. Although you are suppressing the Qiang people in Xiliang today, you have also given them a chance to rise and win. In this case, my lord Naturally, you have to act on behalf of the heavens, and come here at the order of the emperor, if the general knows the current affairs, how about asking the general to get out of the way?"

The Son of Heaven can represent the heaven and the earth, and Wei Tao does have the will of the Son of Heaven, so the words "on behalf of the heaven and the way" can also be said to be true.

But Ma Teng wants to compete with Wei Tao now, not for the Qiang people, but for his Ma family.

If Wei Tao were allowed to enter Xiliang, wouldn't the Ma family gradually decline?

This was intolerable to Ma Teng, so he immediately said it harshly.

"It seems that Chen Changwen not only wants to say that it is not good for me to have a sharp knife, but also wants to see if I have the guts to cook his meat!"

"Hahahaha... It's ridiculous that I have many heroes in Bingzhou, but Liangzhou has no warriors. The confrontation between the two armies is not in front of the battle, but they have to do this villain's way! It's really ridiculous!"

Facing Ma Teng's words, Chen Qun didn't have the slightest intention of retreating, but laughed out loud.

However, what Chen Qun said was measured, he didn't say anything aimlessly, it was just that what he said made the army of Xiliang mind and at the same time he didn't have anything to say.

Xiliang is located in the frontier, and the most important thing is a warrior. If Ma Teng was not suppressing him at this time, I am afraid that Ma Chao and others could not wait to fight Wei Tao.

"Huh! Are you a warrior? And you have fought against me. Last time in Sili, Wei Tao took advantage of the opportunity to defeat me in Xiliang. Now he is in our territory in Xiliang, and it is not so cheap. Just look at our army. How to overcome you!"

"Hehe...Since that's the case, it will be a battle at noon tomorrow. I still have to go to Han Sui's camp, so I won't stay longer. I hope the people of Xiliang can keep their word!"

Chen Qun's goal had already been achieved, so he naturally stopped talking and left with a big stride, letting everyone in the Xiliang army know.

Although it boosted his morale in this way, if he could win again at this time, then from now on, the Xiliang people would never dare to compete with Wei Tao again.

After leaving Ma Teng's camp, Chen Qun naturally rushed to Han Sui's camp without stopping.

That Han Sui was quite old and cunning, but he didn't play Ma Teng's murderous posture, instead he received him kindly, even if Chen Qun uttered wild words, he ignored them.

Obviously, Han Sui didn't want to be tough and hostile to Wei Tao from the beginning, but wanted to let Ma Teng fight Wei Tao like last time, and then take advantage of the opportunity.

Chen Qun naturally sneered at this. It is easy to say that it is easy to make money, but it is not that simple.

Although he couldn't provoke the general, he treated Chen Qun with enough gestures, at least the soldiers of Han Sui's army were also angry.

Back in the camp, Wei Tao had been waiting for Chen Qun's return, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

"My lord, I have done my best, and we will see what my lord is capable of. As long as my lord can set up a camp here, it will be enough to confront the two armies."

"Hehe...the long text depends on what I do."

Wei Tao smiled confidently.

The next day, Wei Tao went to the bank of the Wei River to take a look. Sure enough, although there was still a large open space on the other side of the river, he could faintly notice that there was a movement of soldiers and horses in the two camps, as if they were about to fight out at any time.

"Ha ha……"

With a chuckle, Wei Tao gave the order immediately.

"Send me an order to prepare to cross the river!"

The Weihe River is not very deep, but it is impossible for Wei Tao to force his soldiers to cross it physically, and if they are hit halfway by then, Wei Tao will suffer serious losses.

Even this is not a big deal, if there are really resourceful men in the Xiliang army, as long as they store water in advance and let it go when they cross the river, then not to mention forcing the river to cross, even if there are boats, they will capsize.

The other party that Wei Tao can think of can also think of, so Wei Tao naturally has to be fully prepared.

Following Wei Tao's order, the solicited boats were lined up, and then connected by iron cables.

That's right, what Wei Tao wants to do this time is Cao Cao's method of attacking Jiangdong, a series of warships, and Wei Tao has gone a step further, connecting the ship to the land, even if it is hit by a flood, the ship will not be able to move for a while. Get overwhelmed.

And what Wei Tao wants to do is also very simple, which is to forcibly connect to the opposite bank with a boat, and directly build a pontoon bridge.

Although it takes a lot of energy, Wei Tao only needs it for a while, so there is no need to make it so strong.

"Damn it! What a cunning Wei Ziyu!"

Seeing Wei Tao like this, Ma Teng cursed inwardly. It's not that he didn't think about sending someone to destroy it. Wei Tao's scheme, but just as soon as he charged forward, a rain of arrows rained down, which actually killed himself. few.

On the contrary, the open space in front of the shore became a trap for the Xiliang army, filling it with their own lives.

In fact, it was not only Ma Teng, but Han Sui also planned the same, but Han Sui was more cunning and let Ma Teng act first, but after seeing Wei Tao like this, Han Sui couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Hmph! Even if you are allowed to cross the river, don't you think it will be impossible to set up a camp here? Naturally, I will let you know how powerful our Xiliang army is!"

But to put it this way, it is impossible for Ma Teng and Han Sui to do anything at this time, and let Wei Tao order to act. After spending a day, Wei Tao finally built this temporary passage, which can Let the soldiers pass across the shore.

But at this moment, Han Sui still couldn't help but gave the order directly when Wei Tao was crossing the river.

"It's not that easy to cross the river easily!"

"boom……"

Following Han Sui's order, countless huge waves rushed down, and the torrential river water rushed down, coming straight from the upper reaches, and rushing down. Under the impact of this powerful current, mere manpower could not stop it.

Naturally, the wooden bridge that was barely boarded just now cannot be forcibly blocked, but Wei Tao has long been prepared for this. As long as a few links are cut off, the huge bridge can be dispersed into several boats again, and then as long as the soldiers on it If you work hard, you will not be swept away by the waves.

Then when the water wave was fixed, several boats sailed out on the Weihe River so that it would not be harmed.

But even so, dozens of people fell into the water, and when they were finally salvaged, there were still countless people who died. More importantly, even if they escaped from someone, everyone was shivering from the bone-piercing rivers and mountains. Many people directly With a serious illness, it is impossible to start a war.

However, Wei Tao had prepared early on, so it was only a few people who fell into the water in the end.

"If it wasn't for the foresight of the lord, I'm afraid our army will be in trouble at this time. But with what the lord has done, we can maintain our military strength to cross the Wei River!"

Tai Shici not only knew how to fight on horseback but also on water, just by looking at the current situation, he could understand that without Wei Tao's preparation, the loss this time would not be small.

Water and fire are ruthless, if they really fall into this trick, then Wei Tao's loss is not small.

More importantly, it will be a loss if there is no confrontation, which will greatly damage the morale of the army.

"Hehe... Ziyi doesn't have to be like this, and let me see how the Xiliang army can compete with our army after repairing the pontoon bridge."

Facing Tai Shici's boast, Wei Tao smiled indifferently, and then spoke immediately.

"As soon as possible, repair the pontoon bridge, and after loading the soil, immediately set up the camp. First use the earth and rocks as the cornerstone, and then pour water on it. The martial arts in the Xiliang camp must not know what I did. Wait until they react Come here, my camp is already protected by earthen walls, and if we rely on strong bows and crossbows, how can the mere army of Xiliang win me?"

"promise!"

Hearing Wei Tao's order, not only Tai Shici, but also other generals responded in unison, and immediately gave orders and acted quickly.
