Chencang Road, a road with parallel waterways, has become an important road from Shaanxi to Gansu in later generations. But at this time, he was still famous for his difficult journey and few people to travel.

Until modern times, there were not many records of this road in history. The only thing that made this road go out of the circle was the Battle of Jieting. Whether Zhang He walked out of Longshan was Chencang Nai Road or Guanlong Avenue, which was related to whether Jieting was located in Longcheng Town or Jieting Village in Maiji District.

Cao Ang has seen the steep mountains and rivers in the Qinling Mountains, and it is difficult to walk around. Even birds and apes are flying, it is still difficult, so Cao Ang did not want to walk through this narrow path of Chen Cang in a desperate situation.

However, Longguan cannot be accessed. Whether it is the Huizhong Road in the north or the Qishan Road in the south, the road is too far away, so if you want to enter the pass as soon as possible, you must follow this path.

The generals suggested that Cao Ang go to the southern Qishan Road and enter Chencang through the old road, but Cao Ang dared not go. The Qiang and Hu rebels had already occupied Chencang and would not block the San Pass. Once Cao Ang's troops encountered obstacles at San Pass, they would not be able to advance or retreat, which would be even more troublesome.

Although it is risky to walk the Chencang narrow path, there is a 99% chance that the Qiang and Hu rebels will not pay attention to it.

When Cao Ang enters the pass, the divine weapon will descend from the sky.

Cao Ang decided to walk on the narrow road of Chencang, and he was also fully prepared and strong will, but he could not rely solely on his spirit. Cao Ang and his party set out from Shangqie and advanced eastward for three days, and went forward for only dozens of miles. Moreover, the materials and food carried by the army were even more difficult to carry along the way, which was very difficult.

Cao Ang knew very well that this road was three or four hundred miles, and had not been developed on a large scale, and the further it was, the more difficult it would be. Such a march would seriously damage the morale and spirit of the soldiers.

But Cao Ang had no good idea either.

At this time, a general suggested that since the army was advancing along the Wei River, why not take the water route? But as soon as he said this, he was ridiculed by everyone.

The upper reaches of the Wei River are steep, with nine curves lingering, with many beaches and reefs. It is difficult to sail until the mouth of Chencang Gorge. Besides, the Han army has this courage, and there are neither ships nor sailors. It is simply a dream to transport thousands of soldiers to Guanzhong.

Everyone was laughing, and the person who proposed just now was also a little embarrassed.

However, Cao Ang frowned and thought about something carefully, but he had a plan in his mind.

So Cao Ang immediately said, "Qu Yi, now you will take all the brothers from the Xiongnu camp to cut wood into rows, rub zipper as ropes, and make a batch of large rafts for me. Remember, you must be big and strong, and you must be on top, like walking on flat ground."

Qu Yi was stunned and blurted out: "Supervisor, aren't we really going to go by the water, right?"

Qu Yi was surprised and looked bitter. He was from Jincheng and had never dealt with water too much. He was a little scared just when he thought of marching on a raft for hundreds of miles.

Cao Ang could see Qu Yi’s thoughts at a glance, and Cao Ang also knew that not only Qu Yi, most of the people in the army had this idea.

However, Cao Ang didn't say much, but just asked Qu Yi to cut the wood first.

Not long after Qu Yi left, Guo Jia and others rushed over. Everyone knew that Cao Ang was going to go on the water and came to persuade him.

Seeing that everyone was here, Cao Ang said without waiting for everyone to speak, "I have my own idea about this matter, so I don't need to persuade you anymore."

Ban Ying still said, "The waterway is hard to go. I have walked it once, and it's really a life-threatening death."

Cao Ang heard this and was delighted.

"Since Gong Yu has passed by, I will be responsible for you this time."

Seeing Ban Ying being stunned, Cao Ang smiled and said, "You think I don't know that the Wei River is not feasible. Not only that, I also know that ordinary people will be so dizzy that they can spit out their bile. When they arrive at Sanfu, they will be ten days and half a month old, so they will not be able to fight."

Everyone saw Cao Ang understand this truth, but they couldn't understand why he was still determined to act alone.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "This waterway is not about traveling to people, but about transporting things."

Seeing everyone's eyes lit up, Cao Ang explained: "You have also seen how difficult it is for the soldiers of the three armies to cross mountains and ridges, carrying weapons, armor, food and supplies, so that they are slow. But if they move forward with both hands, I believe that everyone will be more than twice as fast as this speed. So I am going to put all the supplies on the raft and go to the Sanfu on the water, while the soldiers of the three armies will simply follow the light chariots and enter Guanzhong by land."

Everyone nodded.

With this arrangement, everyone can accept it.

"Is it feasible to have such a rushing river just by relying on some rafts?"

Cao Ang smiled and said, "This is not an ordinary raft. I plan to put the raft three floors up and down, and it is huge and can be used in the water. As for sailors, there is no shortage of sailors. I have sent people to search around. The more difficult the road is, the more we have to rely on water transport. Therefore, there will inevitably be many people around the Wei River who are good at sailing. Moreover, I have gathered the entire army who are good at ducking water and follow the action. These people can also act as sailors and help the boats to run."

"Supervise the strange plan!"

After hearing Cao Ang’s arrangement, everyone sighed that he had done it carefully.

Cao Ang looked at Ban Ying and said, "In our army, only Zi Gang and the four of them have seen the rivers and seas and sailed on the boats, so they must follow and be helpers. However, the four of them have never seen the danger of the Wei River. You are the two positions of guide and command."

Ban Ying immediately said, "Ying obeys his order!"

Zhang Hong and the other four also received the orders.

As Cao Ang expected, the Han army found dozens of boatmen around. It was unrealistic to rely on these people to be sailors, but it was still okay to be the leader.

Qu Yi also made more than 30 large rafts, which were huge in size and placed in the water. No matter how big the wind and waves were, it would be difficult to overturn. Moreover, there were hemp ropes connected to each other to prevent them from getting lost.

The supplies transported on board were also firmly tied to the ship to prevent accidental falls into the water. For safety reasons, hundreds of ropes were even connected to the raft. If the soldiers who boarded the ship had nothing to do, they would tie their bodies with ropes.

Everything was ready, Ban Ying, with hundreds of men and the entire army, went downstream and embarked on a magical and adventurous journey.

The word "大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大�

Many years later, it is also unforgettable.

Cao Ang led the main force of the Han army after the reduction of the burden and continued to advance by land.

The mountains are high and birds are walking together, and the sky is very clear. When the clouds are swelling, they are facing the back, and the sound of water is sobbing like something. The wind and rain blow people's faces, and the stones with ice ridges block the horse's hooves. There is no other way to Qinchuan, but it is difficult to get lost by the cliffs and valleys.

Although the ladders and valleys were extremely hard, the army was indeed much lighter without the burden. After a few days, the army successfully arrived at the entrance of Chencangxia.

Ban Ying, Zhang Hong and his party, who had overcome all difficulties and experienced all difficulties, did not disappoint everyone's expectations, and brought the entire army's supplies to meet with Cao Ang's main force here.
