Chapter 586
Guan Yu said calmly: "Although the Goguryeo people are in civil strife, our army's situation is not very good. Although the newly added new army is very aggressive, it lacks training and has no experience in war. The logistics problem is not optimistic. The entire Liaodong is basically a ruin. It is impossible to provide us with any logistics supply within the time count. The supply of the army depends entirely on Bingzhou. Due to the long journey, the supplies sent by Bingzhou are only enough for us to use in our daily life in a short period of time. Now is not the time to attack, and we should follow the orders of the lord!"
Zhang Fei bulged his eyes and then felt like he was deflated. Zhang Fei was spinning around the hall with his hands on his back, and Guan Yu couldn't help feeling dizzy.
Suddenly, Zhang Fei stopped and looked at Guan Yu with excitement. Guan Yu immediately felt a bad premonition, and Zhang Fei said loudly: "I have a way! I remember when my elder brother talked about the Huns that day, he said that the Huns used the method of fighting to raise war!"
Guan Yu was shocked, "You want to follow the example of the Huns in those days and use the method of raising wars."
Zhang Fei nodded and went to the map rack to continue, "We will select 30,000 elite soldiers, carry seven days of food ration to attack Yinmeng Pass, then capture Liaoyang, and then take the Xuantu County Mansion directly! How about it?" Zhang Fei turned his head and looked at Guan Yu, looking at him with a complacent look.
Guan Yu looked at the map and thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, "This is a way! However, Yide had thought about what to do if he couldn't successfully capture Yin Mengguan?"
Zhang Fei was stunned and thought with a bitter face, "If you cannot successfully capture Yinmeng Pass, you can only withdraw your troops temporarily!"
Guan Yu said: "I think this is a risk worth taking! It's just whether it will disrupt the lord's established plan." Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei with inquiring expression.
Zhang Fei patted his chest and said with certainty: "It will definitely not disrupt my brother's plan! If my brother knew that we had taken Xuantu County, I wonder how happy it would be!"
Guan Yu frowned slightly and suggested: "It's better to send a letter to Feige to pass on the letter to coordinate all aspects of the action!"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "It takes one day to go back and forth, and there is no need for this! Besides, my elder brother himself said that he would not accept anything outside!"
Guan Yu felt that what Zhang Fei said was reasonable, so he nodded.
One hour later, Zhang Fei led 30,000 elite troops from the Second Legion to leave the Liaodong camp, including 5,000 light cavalry and 25,000 infantry. The elite Modao Army was not accompanied by, because they would fight in the mountains. It was difficult for the Modao Army, wearing 200 kilograms of armor, to show its due combat effectiveness in this terrain.
After Zhang Fei left, Guan Yu was in a state of uneasy. He was worried about the consequences of Zhang Fei's trip. Although the Goguryeo people were in civil strife, the Goguryeo people still had nearly 50,000 troops in Xuantu County, of which 20,000 were stationed in Yinmeng Pass. This Yinmeng Pass was sandwiched between two mountains and the terrain was extremely dangerous. Moreover, for many years, the Goguryeo people have been strengthening Yinmeng Pass. The Yinmeng Pass is now the "solidity of the Jincheng". The city wall is as high as four battles, all made of large bluestone bushings. The carts could not be hit at all. The city walls include various heavy equipment, including car crossbows, were equipped with all kinds of heavy equipment on the city walls.
Before nightfall, Zhang Fei and his 30,000 troops came to a forest more than ten miles from Yinmeng Pass. Zhang Fei ordered the army to hide on the spot and immediately sent a scout to find a horse.
At about the same time, Chen Chu received a letter from Guan Yu. After reading the content, Chen Chu was surprised.
Chen Chu raised his head and looked at Zhou Yu, who was staring at him, and said, "Chang Yun said that he and Yide felt that this was the time to send troops to Xuantu County. Yide had led 30,000 elite troops to open to Yinmeng Pass!"
Zhou Yu also showed a slightly surprised expression like Chen Chu, murmured: "At this time, there are still 50,000 Goguryeo troops stationed in Xuantu County, and Yinmeng Pass is even more solid!"
Chen Chu frowned and said anxiously: "I will immediately order Yide to withdraw!"
"Wait!" Zhou Yu clasped his fists at Chen Chu and said, "Although General Yide is a bit reckless, he is not lacking in wisdom and has a meticulous side!"
Chen Chu couldn't help but remember the situation where Zhang Fei led his army into Shu in later TV dramas, and nodded in agreement.
Zhou Yu continued: "Zhang Fei's trip is not going to be successful! If he can capture Xuantu County, our army's strategic situation in Liaodong will be very favorable and will have a greater impact on the situation in Goguryeo!"
Chen Chu thought for a moment, "Since that's the case, then I won't send any orders!"
Zhou Yu clasped his fists with a gentle smile: "Lord is wise!"
Chen Chu smiled and spread a scroll on one side of Guan Yu's letter delivery desk. Above this scroll was a beautiful palace, and the general style was no different from the current Luoyang Royal Palace.
Chen Chu sighed and shook his head, "Now the military expenditure is so tight, he actually has to spend money to decorate this Lao Shizi Palace! Damn it!"
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Lord's frugality is a blessing for me to conquer the Northern Army, and a blessing for the people of the world! However, this money is still needed! After all, the lord still needs to use the big flag of the Han Dynasty!"
Chen Chu nodded, rubbed his forehead and asked helplessly: "Can this expense be reduced?"
Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and replied: "It's the least!"
Chen Chu sighed, closed the scroll and handed it to Zhou Yu, and ordered: "Leave this matter to Chen Lin!" "Yes!" Zhou Yu held his fists and agreed.
Chen Chu asked: "When will this matter be completed?"
Zhou Yu thought for a while and replied: "It won't be later than October!"
Chen Chu thought for a moment and ordered: "Let's set the time for the emperor to return to Beijing in mid-November. You can decide the specific time!" "Yes!"
A sudden inspiration appeared in Chen Chu's mind, and his eyes lit up and showed an excited expression, "Gongjin, I suddenly thought of an idea!"
Zhou Yu clasped his fists and said, "Please make an announcement!"
Chen Chu touched his chin and thought, "We can hold a military parade on the day the emperor returns to Beijing! What do you think?" Chen Chu looked excited.
Zhou Yu was stunned and clasped his fists with shame and said, "Please forgive me for being ignorant, I don't know what the military parade is." Zhou Yu of course knew the meaning of the three words "military parade". He just didn't know what the military parade was. What is the purpose of the military parade.
Only then did Chen Chu realize that he had surpassed history again, so he narrated it according to the scenes of later generations.
Zhou Yu first showed a slightly surprised expression, then a thoughtful expression. After a moment, Zhou Yu clasped his fists at Chen Chu with excitement and said, "The lord's plan is really wonderful! It can not only boost morale, but also show the power of the Northern Army to the princes in the world, but also gather the hearts of the people under his jurisdiction and shock those who are ill-behaved!"
Chen Chu smiled, "Does Gongjin agree with my idea?"
Zhou Yu nodded with certainty, thought for a while, and added: "We can also send letters to the Western Regions and the Xianbei countries and invite them to come to Luoyang to attend the ceremony!"
Chen Chu's eyes lit up and he praised loudly: "Okay! Pay attention to this! I just don't know if the envoys from the countries in the Western Regions can arrive on time."
Zhou Yu thought, "If the ceremony is held in December, there will be no problem!"
Chen Chu immediately said, "This is easy! Let's postpone the time until December, and the specific time will be determined by you! In addition, don't forget to send invitations to the princes in the world!" "Yes!" Zhou Yu agreed with his fists.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Zhang Fei's army lurked in the woods, and Zhang Fei sat under a big pine tree and kept pouring water, looking impatient.
About half an hour later, the scout finally came back. The news he brought back made Zhang Fei feel very unhappy. It turned out that Yin Meng Pass was very strict in defense, and the defenders on the city wall were very vigilant.
Zhang Fei ordered his personal soldiers to set up a torch, spread the map on the spot, and asked the local guide beside him: "Is there any place nearby to bypass Yinmeng Pass?" The guide next to Zhang Fei was about 30 years old, with dark skin and wearing an animal leather jacket, giving people a very delicate feeling.
The guide shook his head and said, "If you want to pass, you have to go through Yinmeng Pass!"
Zhang Fei stared at the map with his eyes bulging, and suddenly stepped on the map and made a loud noise. The guide was shocked, and the generals under Zhang Fei had long been accustomed to it!
Zhang Fei paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and the generals watched Zhang Fei say anything.
Suddenly, Zhang Fei stopped and asked the guide: "Will the barbarian army on Yinmeng Pass come out of the pass and rob?"
The guide was stunned and nodded, "These barbarians always came out of seclusion and robbed!" Then he looked sad and angry, "One of my brothers died in their hands!"
Zhang Fei laughed, slapped the guide on the shoulder and shouted: "I will avenge you soon!"
