Liangchuan County County City
The Liangchuan County Town is still very prosperous in August.
The main road located from Qinchuan to Shuzhong is a transportation area. The county town of Liangchuan County is well built, with four city gates in front, back, left and right. It is tall and sturdy. It is a circle of outer city walls, which are tall and thick. The stones used are specially transported from far away places. It is said that it is an ordinary stone trencher, which is difficult to break the city wall.
There is a wide river between the county town and the previous county town. The river water is turbulent. From August, the water level will rise during the flood season. Boats with good water properties need to be careful when crossing the river.
Although there are other roads leading here, most of them are commercial roads, and they do not lead to those nearby counties. If the nearby counties are inappropriate and want to send troops to attack Liangdu County, they need to go around a long circle to reach the city of the county city. It would be time-consuming and laborious, and it would not be worth the effort.
The county town belonging to Liangchuan County, separated by the other side of the river, has a lot of land, but it is not an important place in Liangchuan Capital. At an emergency, it will be lost. It is to find an opportunity to take it back.
There are many fields near Liangchuan County City, and the fertile fertile land nearby is enough to keep it here for a period of time.
In general, this is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. In terms of military advantages, it is not a little bit.
The peaceful climate and the location of a plain in the mountains make many merchants come and go here. Every year, caravans come here to trade one after another. There are many shops in the city, which are welcomed and sent every day, and the business is very good. After walking around the streets of the county town, you may encounter a few wealthy merchants out for a walk. No matter how bad it is, standing at the intersection of the most prosperous area, cars carrying carts passing by can be dazzled.
With these advantages, after Guo Wentong conquered four counties in a row, he finally stopped at Liangchuan County.
Not only is it because the four counties have been enough for Guo Wentong to digest for several years, but also because Liangchuan County is really a tough and hard bone to crack.
But such a county has no weaknesses.
"Is this news true?" At this time, a Taoist priest from the Taoist temple at the east end of the county city was asking in surprise.
After seeing his disciple who came to join him, he received amazing news.
Obviously, the news made his face look ugly.
The Taoist's original Taoist bone fairy style is like this. Without Taoist practice, you can fool ordinary people. What's more, there are some Taoist practices, and they haven't stayed in the local area for a long time, but they are also famous.
Therefore, the people in the Taoist temple were extremely polite to him.
He brought more than half of the incense in the view, and this kind of affection would not treat him badly.
But at this moment, a faint feeling of worry appeared on his face.
This Taoist's apprentice is not very old, about in his early 10 years old, but he is very clever. He is a man who has always been very clean, but now he looks very embarrassed.
He was wrapped in a dirty Taoist robe, and his hair was a little messy. If it weren't for some people, he would have almost been driven out as a beggar.
"Master, what the disciple said is true. Look at the disciple's arm. This was when he was fleeing, he was shot by a trampled arrow. It has not been done yet." The Taoist boy pulled up his sleeves aggrievedly and exposed his wounds to his master.
Although the medicine was almost gone, the scar was very conspicuous. "If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, how could my disciple say that?"
"So, Guo Wentong's next target is this county town? Oops! This is not as good as the small county town you went to before. The county town is really surrounded by a large army, and even a bird cannot fly out! No, this place can't be stayed anymore. Although the other party may not notice it, the weapons are blind and injured by someone while siegeing the city. That's not worth the loss." The Taoist's face changed and finally made up his mind: "Good disciple, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. You and I pack your luggage, and leave here quickly."
"What the master said is that even if the city cannot be captured for a while and being trapped in the ground is not an interesting thing." Taoist Tong Xian was frightened by the previous incident. After hearing what the master mentioned, he responded repeatedly.
The two of them had not much luggage, so they said they could walk around. Fortunately, the Taoist still had some kindness. Before leaving, they would tell the information they received to the master of this view.
After hearing Taoist You Fang’s advice, the master of the spectator just smiled faintly: “Senior brother is really worried. This city has been very stable over the past few decades and has never been captured by anyone. If you live here, what else can you worry about?”
"And it was August, and the river water on the other side was rising, and there were no navy here. As long as the ships and bridges along the way were destroyed, how could the army cross it? When the river water receded, we would have to wait for a month to attack the county town. Who can have such time to stay on the other side of the river? When they left, the prefect sent people to take back the lost land. That is, they came again, and there was such a tug-of-war. This place has always been so responsive to the enemy, why are you afraid of coming?"
The master and the disciple were speechless. They persuaded each other a few more times, but when they saw that the other party didn't care, they thought that this was just an ordinary Taoist temple. As long as they were like them, they would not cause danger.
The master and apprentice gave up and then said goodbye and left.
After they left, the senior executives of Liangchuan County also received news that Guo Wentong led his troops to invade.
Since it is already the flood season, the river water is rising, and it is easy to cross the river normally. The army crosses the river, which is simply a dream.
The prefect sent more people to guard the city and sent people to collect ships. The people in the city did not know that the shadow of war had approached here step by step.
"Master, what are you doing?" On the road a few distances from Liangchuan County, an ordinary carriage was heading towards Shu, either fast or slow.
The person who drove the car was a very ordinary Taoist, who was driven to pull the cart, and the horse was very obedient. The Taoist held the reins in one hand, and was holding two little kingfishers in his palm in the other hand.
The Taoist boy was sitting in the carriage before. When he heard the master muttering something in front of him, he stuck out his head curiously, and saw this scene.
"This thing is what our master sends message. Although the master is an outer disciple, he can do this hand." As he said that, he held up his hand, and the kingfisher spread his wings and left quickly.
"I have been using this item to send information back to the master's sect. This time, I will use it again." The Taoist priest said with some emotion.
"Go." He held his hand up suddenly, and the bird flew up immediately and flew into the distance.
"Master, since he is sending letters to the master, he uses two kingfishers? Instead of one?" The Taoist boy kept looking at it and asked at this time. He was a little active and had learned some martial arts. After all, he was a young man. He was patient and waited for his master to answer.
The Taoist whipped the horse in his hand and whipped it, and the speed of the car immediately became much faster.
The Taoist priest said: "There are two copies of the information sent to the master, one is sent back to the master's sect and submitted to the master's sect's seniors for reading. The other is for the two inner sect's senior brothers to know about it."
"Master, where are we going next?" The Taoist boy did not continue to ask, but instead asked where the two of them were going downstairs.
"The war is in chaos, and everyone is not at ease. Going to Shu, where it has just been settled by Shu. It should be no problem to live for a few years." As a disciple of the Hidden Sect Outer Sect who is traveling, Shu is the safest place.
"Shu..." As the carriages gradually drifted away, their voices gradually drifted away until they no longer came.
At this time, Wang Hongyi's 40,000 troops had surrounded Hanzhong City.
On the afternoon of the day when the camp was in full swing, the personnel from the Thirteenth Division of the army came to ask for a visit.
"Please ask him to get in." Wang Hongyi then summoned personnel from the Thirteenth Division.
From the staff of the Thirteenth Division, Wang Hongyi learned that Guo Wentong had sent troops to attack Liangchuan County.
After hearing the news, Wang Hongyi said nothing at first.
In this era, in ancient camps, the mountains were dark and dark not far away. Wang Hongyi took a long time to say: "The situation in Liangchuan County is related to the progress of our army in Hanzhong. You must pay attention to it at any time and report it to record it - this is a major policy, not an ordinary matter, you must pay attention."
The staff of the Thirteenth Division were a little stunned and quickly bowed to answer "Yes"!
Wang Hongyi ordered them to leave, and after a moment, he ordered: "Transfer the orphan order and use the thunder chariot to attack the city wall, and then slowly eliminate it. The army does not need to be with him!"
"promise."
The military order was like a mountain, and the thunder chariot was pushed forward and placed in front of the city. With a command, a huge rock was thrown out.
Listening to the rumbling sound in the distance, Wang Hongyi, who was in the camp, was distracted and turned to Jingzhou again.
"I wonder how things happened when Zhang Fanzhi and Xing Dahai led him to Jingzhou, and did Lu Suhai stand out?"
He was deeply impressed by Lu Suhai. This is a talent who can become a first-class general, but he is a little younger now and needs to be tempered.
At this time, a group of warships were slowly sailing upstream on the Yangtze River. The warship was filled with flames and traces of battle. After the deck was cleaned, blood was still vaguely seen everywhere.
Zhang Fanzhi and Xing Dahai stood on the top floor of the flagship, and the strong river breeze blew the flags.
Zhang Fanzhi's expression was filled with joy. This was the third time he had plundered a large amount of goods. As long as he went back, he could sell these goods to officials and businessmen in Shu. They were lower than those of regular businessmen, but half of them were rewarded.
This money is not just about pensions, but more about building new ships, recruiting soldiers, and arranging family members to expand the scale.
The upper limit of the fleet is now 10,000 people in Sandu, but now it is only 7,000 people in total.
And some people must be eliminated, and it is not easy to become water thieves. Now Jingzhou is encircled and suppressed in a hurry. Although the warships are now strong and thick, once they act as pirates, their weapons and waves are ruthless, they still lose some brothers.
Of course, this also trained the navy. Zhang Fanzhi was confident that these navy soldiers who had been trained and tested in practice could compete with the Jingzhou navy in the future.
Just as I was thinking, a general suddenly came up.
This will be wearing leather armor and full of heroism. If you look closely, you will see that it is not very old, it is Lu Suhai.
Lu Suhai was young and brave, dared to fight, and had good luck. He made many military achievements. Last time, he even killed a general who was the siege army alone. According to the Shu system, he was afraid he would be promoted.
可是这样年轻就当营正,再提拔不就是副卫将?
This is too fast, right?
