  Chapter 1459 Battle Situation

Langzhong.

  Qin Mi, acting as a temporary agent for military and political affairs, didn't feel the comfort of being in power at all. Instead, she was worried day and night, couldn't sleep well, and didn't even bother to wave her most beloved gold-painted fan.

  From the day Zhang Ren led his troops to Hanchang, Qin Mi fell into involuntary panic.

  The battle situation in front of him left Qin Mi at a loss...

  Qin Mi is a counselor. From the day he joined the Liu Yan Group, Qin Mi has been a counselor. Although he has also handled government affairs and managed the county, the situation is completely different from today.

Even if there were wars in Liu Yan's era, it was basically just some armed fights between the barbarians in Sichuan and Shu. Sometimes when the soldiers from the counties and counties arrived, the two sides would fight fifty big boards each. There was nothing too much at all. War chaos.

   And now...

  It’s okay if Zhang Ren can succeed, but if he can’t, what should he do?

   What if Nanchong's soldiers from the west come over?

  The soldiers, rations and supplies are cut off, where are we going to prepare?

  A series of questions lingered in Qin Mi's mind, disturbing him for a moment.

Originally in the state of a counselor, Qin Mi only needed to come up with an idea. Anyway, it was someone else who made the decision. If the idea was not good, at most it would be a sentence of lack of knowledge, lack of thoughtfulness, demotion or salary reduction, etc. It's over, who hasn't made a mistake?

   But now, if you make a mistake again, you will die!

She wanted to make up her own mind, and she had to make up her own mind. This invisibly increased pressure made Qin Mi wish she couldn't get used to it. In the beginning, she even issued two or three contradictory orders, which led to these orders in Langzhong. The local officials looked at Qin Mi with even more suspicion and scrutiny...

  This situation further increased Qin Mi's psychological burden, and finally dragged down the entire Langzhong affairs arrangement. With the mentality of not seeking merit but seeking no faults, Qin Mi is now guarding Langzhong tremblingly, praying for Zhang Ren to win, and also praying that Nanchong's troops to conquer the west will not come north to attack.

   As for what attacked Nanchong?

  Let’s talk about this kind of thing after General Zhang Ren Zhang returns...

  Qin Mi was worried.

  Xu Shu was also worried.

   However, some people showed a look of no worries.

When Xu Shu was worried about Wei Yan's situation, Wei Yan was actually also worried about his own battle situation, but unlike Xu Shu, Xu Shu was worried and was still making progress steadily, while Wei Yan expressed his worry by passing it on Going out, he couldn't see it at all on the surface, and Du Hu was somewhat helpless with his smile.

"You're a lunatic!" Du Hu muttered dissatisfiedly in front of Wei Yan. He had said this sentence three times, but he still couldn't help saying it again, "Nanchong is not stable yet, march into Guanghan! Crazy, crazy It's crazy!"

   "Hahaha!" Wei Yan didn't care about Duhu's disrespectful words, but said with a smile, "I'm crazy, don't I still have you by my side?"

   "I'm crazy too!" Du Hu said angrily, "I happen to know the guard of Nanchong, so it's pretty good without fighting with weapons, but... but I don't know who the guard of Guanghan is!"

  Du Hu looked left and right, lowered his voice and said: "General Wei, I'm not talking about being discouraged. Look at us. We don't have much food and grass, and we don't carry siege equipment. Just go to Guanghan like this...General, think twice..."

"Well, you haven't read the art of war..." Wei Yan said with a smile, "In the art of war, the most important thing is not any equipment or food, but surprise! Do you know? What is surprise? Just don't wait for others to be prepared. Come on, how troublesome is that? Isn’t it? It’s boring to be beaten for a long time without any fart? It’s just to take advantage of others’ unpreparedness, just take advantage of this knife... and it’s over, isn’t it easier?”

  Du Hu was stunned for a moment, and said: "There is nothing wrong with saying that, but if you can't die with a single blow...wouldn't we be in trouble?"

  Wei Yan laughed loudly and said, "How could it be impossible to kill? Why don't you call someone to see whether I can kill or not? Don't worry, you think we are taking risks, and the people of Guanghan must not think of it..."

Duhu sighed, feeling that he couldn't convince Wei Yan, so he could only shake his head, then sighed again, ended the argument with Wei Yan, and went to the side to mutter some slang words, probably 80% Not a nice word either.

Wei Yan smiled, and didn't care what Du Hu said, just regularized the march of the army, running back and forth from time to time, seeing some soldiers who didn't do well, either laughed and scolded or raised their scabbards to beat, the soldiers under his command didn't I think this is a harsh punishment, but sometimes I will boo...

Wei Yan originally started as a non-commissioned officer at the lowest level. Although he is now a general, he doesn't have much airs of a general. This makes ordinary soldiers feel very friendly, and it is precisely because of this that the long and boring mountain road seems not so difficult. Suffering, the speed of soldiers marching can be maintained.

  Actually, Wei Yan didn’t know what Du Hu said?

   Not necessarily.

  In Wei Yan's heart, he considered much more than Duhu. Although Wei Yan said it was unexpected and seemed to be very relaxed, the pressure in Wei Yan's heart would not be much less than that of Du Hu.

  Nanchong was taken down, but Langzhong was still there, and attacking Langzhong, which was heavily defended, basically meant a strong attack, relying only on Wei Yan and Duhu's current deployment of troops, such a thing is thankless.

  However, staying in Nanchong and waiting for help seems to be a good choice, but Wei Yan knows, people, as long as you are free, you must have distracting thoughts!

   What's more, Wei Yan's current state is almost like a lonely army going deep. If there are some complicated rumors among the soldiers during the period of defense, Wei Yan will be severely injured even if he suppresses it forcibly with the marching method.

  If such a situation really happened, the general Lei Tong would still cooperate obediently, without the slightest idea?

So Wei Yan dared to blow the cowhide to the maximum, as if he didn't fortify Lei Tong at all, he still appointed Lei Tong as the acting magistrate of Nanchong, and made arrangements after General Zhengxi came later, and then said that he wanted to fight with Du Hu Continue to advance into the hinterland of Sichuan and Shu!

   Wei Yan was so decisive that he really bluffed Lei Tong, making Lei Tong dare not even think about it. In Lei Tong's cognition, according to the normal inference, Wei Yan's performance is so strong, there must be follow-up soldiers to follow up, presumably the army of conquering the west has probably arrived in Langzhong, and will come to Nanchong soon...

  So Lei Tong not only patted his chest to show his loyalty, but also deliberately handed over the supplies, grain and grass that were originally to be transported to Langzhong, and asked Wei Yan to carry them to Guanghan.

This is one aspect, but on the other hand, Wei Yan did not go to Guanghan to solve the problem like he said to Duhu, because Wei Yan also knew that he did not carry some heavy siege weapons. Even if the equipment is temporarily assembled under the city of Guanghan, it can't solve any problems, so if you can't take Guanghan lightly, then a strong attack is meaningless.

  However, from another point of view, if the Guanghan defenders saw Wei Yan's leading troops appear, what would they think? Would they know that Wei Yan was actually incapable of storming Guanghan County?

  So, even if Wei Yan can't defeat Guanghan, it will inevitably make Guanghan's defenders dare not attack Nanchong easily, which in disguise has won more time for defending Nanchong.

  Wei Yan looked at Duhu who was feeling a bit depressed at the side, laughed twice, and ordered loudly: "Go ahead! When you arrive at the front mountain, bury the pot and cook, and rest for a while!"

  The soldiers agreed one after another and quickened their pace.

   Wei Yan gazed into the distance, Guanghan, Guanghan, I don’t know what is going on in Guanghan now, and how will they welcome us?

  In Guanghan City, Zhao Wei was also very troubled by the battle situation before him.

   Liu Zhang seemed to be insane, and he was going to attack Zhao Wei regardless of his commanding troops. This not only surprised Zhao Wei, but also made Zhao Wei fall into a passive state.

   Zhao Wei didn't want to fight against Liu Zhang, his main target was Pang Xi.

  When Liu Yan entered Sichuan, Zhao Wei, who was the magistrate of Taicang at the time, resigned resolutely and followed Liu Yan to Sichuan, in order to be able to make contributions in his hometown and expand his family power. Zhao Wei is a Brazilian, so he naturally hoped that his family would not only grow to a higher level within the Brazilian County, but even extend to the entire Sichuan and Shu territories. However, this ideal went smoothly at first, until Liu Yan fell ill and died...

Zhao Wei is more inclined towards military affairs, so most of the time he is busy with recruiting, deploying, training and other affairs of soldiers. Therefore, the time spent with Liu Zhang is naturally not as long as that of Pang Xi, and Liu Zhang, a silly boy, He actually listened to Pang Xi's slander and reduced Zhao Wei's scope of authority step by step, which made Zhao Wei unacceptable, so he had to take extreme measures, relying on his original accumulation in the army to fight against Pang Xi.

   Really rebel? Then dominate Sichuan and Shu?

  Zhao Wei didn't think about it this way, he just hoped to overthrow Pang Xi, or at least restore it to what it was like when Liu Yan was there.

  However, all these thoughts were disrupted by Liu Zhang's reckless dispatch of troops.

hit?

  Zhao Wei is about to confront Liu Zhang's army head-on, but also needs to pay attention to whether there will be some voices loyal to Liu Zhang in his backyard...

After all, Liu Yan's achievements in the stability of Sichuan and Shu cannot be ignored. This is especially recognized by the older generation of Sichuan and Shu gentry. Yan's tolerant policy is implemented, most of these people will still feel that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and will not support Zhao Wei to replace Liu Zhang and break the original pattern of benefit distribution.

Do not hit?

  If you surrender, it will not only mean that your previous efforts will be in vain, but more importantly, your family will inevitably suffer extremely huge losses! This kind of loss means that his family may not be able to turn around in the next ten years, or even decades. Such a result is also unacceptable to Zhao Wei.

  The most important thing is that Brazil County is not stable now, and Hanchang has been lost. Zhao Wei not only has to face Liu Zhang, but also beware of the forces of Zhengxi...

What troubled Zhao Wei the most was that, whether it was because of Pang Xi's obstruction or Liu Zhang's intention, all the envoys sent to prepare for peace talks with Liu Zhang were sent back with their heads beheaded. The anger couldn't help rising, and he was going to teach Liu Zhang a good lesson in Guanghan.

  If you want to make a brat know how to listen to people, beat him up first and then reason, which is far easier for the brat to remember than dry reasoning!

   Let's have a beating before we talk!

After Zhao Wei made a decision, he immediately began to make arrangements. He had reached an agreement with the big households in Guanghan in advance, and promised a considerable amount of benefits. , Show off your muscles.

   At this time, Liu Zhang also held back his energy. He imitated the actions of Liu Yan in his memory, and accompanied his Chinese troops in the barracks, posing as a respectful and worthy corporal, sharing joys and sorrows. Of course, these Chinese army guards who belonged to Liu Yan also understood Liu Zhang's intentions, and cooperated with them to make a grateful appearance, and they almost cried, yelled, knelt and sang conquer.

I don't know whether Liu Zhang saw it or not, but at least Liu Zhang was quite satisfied with his performance. However, the heroic airs he showed outside disappeared completely when he returned to the big tent, and he collapsed after taking off his armor. Falling down on the bed, panting for a while with a huge belly, it was considered to be relieved.

Liu Zhang used to be able to comfort himself. He was not called fat, but strong. Now that he really entered the barracks, Liu Zhang had to admit that he was indeed too fat. Among other things, he had to prepare more for his war horse. two horses...

   No way, after beating Zhao Wei, I won’t fight a second time no matter what!

  Liu Zhang gritted his teeth fiercely, made up his mind, sat up, and let the guards beside him fetch the food. It's all **** Zhao Wei! If it wasn't for Zhao Wei being so tyrannical, how could he have made himself so hard?

"Tomorrow, we will assemble our forces and start attacking the city..." Liu Zhang grunted while eating, smacking his lips, humming twice, and muttering. It's like a child complaining, "From today on, I will no longer be friends", full of cuteness.

   "My lord..." The guard on the side blinked and said, not quite sure, "Then I'm going to deliver the order?"

  Liu Zhang raised his head from the food, with some grains of rice still in the corner of his mouth, his eyes gradually converged from the divergence, and began to have a sharp feeling: "Yes! Go to pass the order! Repair today, and start the war tomorrow!"

  The guard also seemed to be encouraged, puffed up his chest, answered loudly, and then turned around and left.

Liu Zhang watched the guards go away, his original sharp eyes fell back on the food in front of him, and became a little divergent again. He couldn't help but sighed deeply, and muttered in a low voice, "Early start and end early... such a meal, Such a bed... I really don't want to stay for a day longer..."
