Chapter 124 The Land of the Three Counties
land of three counties
"Yide is so rude, let's listen to the military adviser." Liu Bei rolled his eyes at Zhang Fei; but Zhang Fei pulled his face down when he saw Liu Bei speak, and retreated to the previous position, without any intention of sophistry.

Zhuge Liang also shook his head. Although Zhang Fei already has the qualifications of a general, he is still as reckless as before.

"Since General Zhang has been waiting anxiously, let's make a long story short," Zhuge Liang said slowly, shaking his feather fan lightly.

After all, he stood up and pointed to the map of Yongzhou that had just been erected by the soldiers with his feather fan: "Qishan is already the border of the Han and Wei dynasties. In front of the army are Tianshui County and Nan'an County, but there are no high walls in Tianshui and Nan'an County; once the news of our entry into Yongzhou comes out, Liangzhou will definitely send reinforcements to confront our army, so we must take Tianshui again After Nan'an and Nan'an captured Longxi County, the throats of Yongzhou and Liangzhou could be strangled, so that Liangzhou cavalry could not penetrate into Yongzhou, so that we could continue to march east or west.

But once the news of our entry into Yongzhou spreads, Cao Zhen, the general of the Wei army, will inevitably march towards us; Cao Zhen has only two ways to fight our army from the east of Yongzhou to the west of Yongzhou. It's Guo Shuijun going north through the street pavilion and facing our army directly.

However, Cao Jun has many cavalry, and walking along the Weihe River will definitely slow down the marching speed of the army, so Cao Zhen must cross the street pavilion, and our army must protect the street pavilion; In Guanzhong, Yongzhou can be settled; if General Pingbei's surprise attack on Chang'an fails, our army will move west to attack Liangzhou to stabilize the rear, and then plan to move eastward. "Zhuge Liang pointed to the topographic map of Yongzhou hanging in the big tent and said.

When it came to the surprise attack on Chang'an, many generals took a deep breath. After all, this matter could only be done according to the destiny, but Wei Yan dared to attack the city in a humane way, but this courage made the generals in the account feel inferior. As for the results, only time will tell.

"Military teacher, don't worry! If it's someone else, I, Lao Zhang, can't guarantee it. If it's Bosong, that boy will definitely be able to take down Chang'an City." Zhang Fei couldn't help standing up when he heard about the surprise attack on Chang'an, but he didn't say a word to Wei Yan. It may also be due to Wei Yan's character.

As soon as Ma Chao heard 'Bosong', his mind spun quickly, and finally Zhuge Qiao appeared, but his eyes were also firmly supporting Zhuge Qiao just like Zhang Fei, because it was Zhuge Qiao who brought him the can in the first place. The expectation of revenge.

"Military division, the final general asks for orders to capture Longxi County and strangle Liangzhou iron cavalry;" Yuan Lin, the former general and Duting Hou, stood up full of ambition and asked for orders.

Regarding Yuan Lin, Zhuge Liang has nothing to say. Yuan Lin's ability to make Liu Bei a former general is definitely not weak, and she is a veteran who followed Liu Bei to fight the world earlier. Naturally, it will not be weak.

Without thinking about it, "Yuan Lin listens to the order" Zhuge Liang shouted with the arrow in his hand.

"The last general is here," Yuan Lin knelt on one knee and marched in salute.

"Let you lead ten thousand tiger infantry troops and ten thousand Ji Han troops, and set out tomorrow to capture Longxi and strictly guard Liangzhou's iron cavalry," Zhuge Liang said slowly, but his tone was extremely heavy. As for the gate of Yongzhou, Zhuge Liang could only put down [-] soldiers to guard Longxi .

"The last general takes orders." Yuan Lin stretched out her hand to take the command arrow, and retreated.

Seeing that Yuan Lin had already grasped the military exploits in his hands, the other generals also started to commotion. They seemed to be complaining that Yuan Lin acted too quickly. Even Zhang Fei was indignant, after all, he was the one who asked to capture Longxi first.

"The military division is so unfair. Obviously, my old Zhang proposed to attack Longxi first, but it was gone in a blink of an eye." Zhang Fei complained to Zhuge Liang.

"General Zhang, don't worry, as a chariot general, you have more important tasks to complete." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and smiled.

Zhang Fei's dejected face just now turned into a smiling face, and he smiled at Zhuge Liang, "I know the military master will not forget me, Lao Zhang."

"Military division, the general was in Yongliang in the first year, and he is quite familiar with the terrain in this area. The general wishes to lead the army to capture Tianshui and pave the way for the army." Ma Chao couldn't hold back, and stood up;

When Zhuge Liang saw Ma Chao standing up, he was also shocked. Although he knew that Ma Chao was eager to make contributions, it was not the time to use him. It needs Meng Qi to prepare, and only Meng Qi can complete this matter."

"Also ask the military adviser to show me?" Ma Chao asked curiously when he saw that Zhuge Liang had nothing to say.

"Let's discuss it later," Zhuge Liang said slowly, shaking his feather fan lightly.

"No," Ma Chao clasped his fists, but he was even more curious about what tasks Zhuge Liang would arrange for him to perform.

"The last general of the military division asks for orders, leading five thousand soldiers will definitely take Nan'an County." After Zhang Fei and Ma Chao failed to ask for orders, the later general and Anlehou Wu Ban stood up and continued to ask for orders.

When Zhuge Liang saw it was Wu Ban, Wu Ban was notoriously bold and forthright in a narrow sense, he also participated in the battle against Wu, and he was also quite prestigious in the army, and Wu Ban only needed [-] soldiers to capture Nan'an City. It is also in line with the current strength of the Shu Han.

"If the Nan'an prefect gathers the city to defend it, how can you break it?" Zhuge Liang asked sharply. Although Nan'an County is small, it is also a border county. It is difficult to attack with only [-] soldiers.

Without thinking about it, Wu Ban said casually, "If the prefect of Nan'an gathered in the city and defended it, I would surround three and miss one; Bindao County, where Nan'an is governed, is only a day's journey away from Xiangwu County, where Longxi is governed. You can borrow troops from the former general." Break Nan'an together."

Zhuge Liang nodded, and Wu Ban's explanation obviously made him feel relieved.

"Wu Ban listens to the order," Zhuge Liang shouted.

"The last general is here," Wu Ban replied with a serious face.

"I command you to lead an army of five thousand tiger infantry and set out tomorrow to capture Nan'an without any mistakes," Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice.

"The last general takes orders." Wu Ban reached out to take the command arrow.

In the land of the three counties, Longxi and Nan'an had already dispatched generals to capture them, but Zhuge Liang of the remaining Tianshui County did not plan to send any more troops.Because Yi County, the seat of Tianshui County, is next to the Weihe River, and the fastest route for the army to advance eastward is to go down the Weihe River, so Liu Bei has already ordered Zhuge Liang to lead the army to capture Tianshui County, and then wait for the news of Chang'an City in Yi County. Once there is news, the army can immediately sail eastward to the Guanzhong.

But Zhuge Liang couldn't make up his mind for a while at Jieting, a place that military strategists must contend for; Jieting is the main way to pass through Guanzhong, Longyou, and Bashu.It is located west of the Qinling Mountains, fifty miles east of Tianshui County, and is an important throat to Hanzhong.Although the street pavilion is small, it has a great relationship, but there is no city outline and no danger.
