Chapter 531: Current Situation, Planning Maozhou
Shao Hongyuan waved his hand to stop the soldiers who came forward with their swords drawn!
"Zhang Yuanwai, are you sure he remembered it wrong?"
Shao Hongyuan asked calmly.
The old man surnamed Zhang nodded hurriedly, "Commander, I remembered it wrong, it is exactly ten thousand stones!"
At this moment, he had already seen the other people's numbers below, each of which had doubled exactly ten times! He immediately understood.
He and others thought that they could get rid of Shao Hongyuan with just a little effort, but he was obviously not satisfied.
But, can I say that I made a mistake at this moment?
Didn't you see that the blade was almost pressing against your neck?
With that said, he no longer hesitated and wrote his name directly behind the ten thousand stones and pressed his fingerprint!
Ten thousand stones of grain will indeed make one's body hurt, but compared to one's own life and death, it has to be like this.
Shao Hongyuan nodded, "I thought the clerk made a mistake. How could there be such a careless person under my command?
However, since Zhang Yuanwai made a mistake in remembering it, forget it..."
Zhang Yuanwai's mouth trembled. If he persisted, Na Dao would think that he was wrong.
It's a pity that he traveled all over the country and suffered a loss at the hands of this ruffian.
No wonder they say that a scholar meets a soldier, but it makes no sense...
Although the people behind did not know what happened, they immediately understood it when they saw the numbers on the paper.
However, at this moment they have no right to object, they can only grit their teeth and sign!
After a while, everyone signed and stamped their signatures. Shao Hongyuan waved his hand and said, "Zhang Qin, take the receipt and go get the food back!"
"Everyone, you must stay here today, otherwise, wouldn't it be that I am neglecting you?
However, I am busy with military affairs, so I will not accompany you."
Having said that, Shao Hongyuan was too lazy to continue talking to these people, so he stood up and left...
In fact, Shen Tang from Mianzhou has already guessed Shao Hongyuan's recent situation, but even Shen Tang is unable to directly rescue the Chengdu Mansion at this moment!
To the north of Chengdu, there are six state capitals.
In addition to Mianzhou that Shen Tang has occupied and Shiquan Army where Bian Xi and others are located, there are also Maozhou to the south of Shiquan Army that is occupied by the Qiang people, Hanzhou to the south of Mianzhou, Huai'an to the east of Hanzhou, and Hanzhou
Pengzhou in the south and Weizhou surrounded by Maozhou.
Mianzhou is basically under the control of Shen Tang. Judging from the news from Bian Xi and others, the key areas of Shiquan Army have also been controlled by them.
Hanzhou was plundered by the Tibetans and then retreated, so now Hanzhou is basically empty.
The Huai'an Army is stationed in Huai'an. Although the Huai'an Army only has 10,000 people, it is no match for the Tubo people.
However, fortunately, they had been operating in this land of Huai'an for many years, and after two battles with the Tubo, they suffered some damage to each other, so the Tubo people temporarily abandoned Huai'an.
Therefore, Huai'an was also under the control of the Song Dynasty.
As for Weizhou, although it is also an independent place, almost all of it is under the control of the Qiang people.
The rest is Pengzhou!
Pengzhou has a small terrain, slightly smaller than Weizhou, and is the smallest state capital in the entire Chengdu Fulu.
However, it is located on the north side of Chengdu Prefecture and is the northern gateway of Chengdu Prefecture! If you want to enter Chengdu Prefecture from the north, there are two ways to go.
The first is to take the Kunkou road to the south, enter Yongkang, and then head east from Daojiang River to Chengdu Prefecture.
The second is to take Jiulong County and enter Chengdu Prefecture.
However, both Fukou and Jiulong are within the territory of Pengzhou. Moreover, the two places are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are pass areas.
In comparison, not only is the distance closer to Jiulong, but the terrain of Jiulong is also much gentler than that of Horikochi.
Therefore, the simplest route is to go all the way south and enter Chengdu Prefecture through Jiulong.
Not long ago, Lu Feng had sent news that the Tubo troops were stationed in Jiulong with 50,000 troops.
Obviously, the purpose is to prevent Shen Tang from going south!
If this were just the case, if Shen Tang led the army and fought a fierce battle with the opponent, he might not be defeated.
However, in the land of Maozhou, there is still a Qiang tribe who is eyeing them.
Therefore, if Shen Tang wants to go south, he must deal with or recover the Qiang people.
Otherwise, when Shen Tang fights the Tubo people, he will be attacked from both sides.
Looking at the terrain map in front of him, Shen Tang had been pondering for a long time! It is not easy to deal with the Qiang people.
First of all, there are hundreds of thousands of Qiang tribesmen, and there are at least tens of thousands of warriors who are capable of fighting. They are not comparable to small tribes like the Poison Ivy Tribe or the Poisonous Insect Tribe.
If you want to deal with tens of thousands of Qiang troops, and the enemy is occupying the terrain, even if Shen Tang has an army of 100,000, he is not absolutely sure.
In addition, Maozhou has a very vast terrain, almost twice the size of Mianzhou where Shen Tang is located.
If you add Weizhou and other places controlled by the Qiang people, it will be even more difficult to detect! Therefore, if Shen Tang wants to capture the Qiang people, he must plan carefully.
"Where are Bian Xi and others now?"
In the hall, many generals gathered together!
Hearing Shen Tang's question, a tooth general stood up and said, "I received a military report from General Bian early this morning. They are now stationed in the Shenquan area and are preparing to cross the boundaries of the state capital to join us!"
Shen Tang nodded and his eyes fell on the terrain map in front of him again.
With the help of the Poison Insect Tribe and the Poison Ivy Tribe, as well as the information detected by Lu Feng, the terrain map in Shen Tang's hands is now extremely detailed.
The mountains, rivers, passes and important places are all marked on the map.
"Now Chengdu Prefecture is under siege by the Tubo people. I have received the news that there are nearly 100,000 Tibetans under siege! Fortunately, the walls of Chengdu Prefecture are strong, and General Shao can still deal with it for the time being. However, if anything happens, If the Tubo people continue their attack like this, it will only be a matter of time before Chengdu falls.
Therefore, we must rush to Chengdu Mansion as quickly as possible to join General Shao."
"The Tubo people united with some local tribes to form troops in the Jiulong area, waiting for our arrival.
And we have no choice but to fight them in Jiulong.
However, before that, we need to solve the problem of the Qiang people first.
Otherwise, the Qiang people are behind us, and we will be in trouble with enemies from both sides."
"Therefore, our next step is to march into Maozhou! Everyone can discuss how we can capture Maozhou at the minimum cost and get the Qiang people to join us."
As Shen Tang's words rang out, all the generals present looked at the terrain map and began to think deeply!
After a long while, Xin Qiji took the lead and said, "Commander, the situation in Maozhou is unclear now. It is better for me to lead the vanguard into Maozhou and break the current situation.
When all the arrangements of the Qiang people are revealed, the general can gather his troops for a decisive battle and defeat the Qiang people in one fell swoop."
