Chapter 125 The Southern Barbarian Reinforcement

However, Zhuge Liang planned to make a decision and led the army to look for Luzhou. When he arrived at Luzhou, Xue Bing led three thousand soldiers and horses, with Ma Zhong as his deputy general, left the brigade and looked straight to the east of Huichuan.

Xue Bing held the map in his hand, looking at the mountains, rivers and roads while walking, comparing it to the drawing on the picture.

I saw that although there are differences in this picture, it is not too big. All the mountains, rivers, roads and roads are marked. Wherever you can walk and where you can’t walk, there are annotations next to you.

After a while, Xue Bing called Ma Zhong and asked, "Di Xin knows how long it will take to go before he can reach the designated place of the military advisor?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhong took the map and looked at it for a while, and replied, "At the speed of the current marching, I can't get here in about two days." As he said, he pointed at a place on the map. At the same time, he returned the map to Xue Bing.

Xue Bing took the picture and looked at where Ma Zhong pointed. But here, surrounded by mountains, there was only a small path leading to the Lushui River. However, from this picture, it was dangerous. You only need to lead a soldier to block the road. No matter how many troops and horses are in the barbarian army, you can't even break through.

After looking at it for a while, he said to Ma Zhong again: "Dexin thinks, where will our army be elected to establish a village?"

Ma Zhong said: "Just establish a camp at a dangerous intersection, and the barbarians will not pass by."

Xue Bing looked at the formation, but saw that the terrain drawn on the map could only be like this. Originally, he meant that he was hiring the crossbowman on the flank and then erecting a village on the road.

The left and right crossbow troops came forward slightly and formed a pocket-like defensive formation. However, I don’t know if the terrain here meets what Xue Bing thought.

We kept walking for several days.

The army had reached its designated place. Xue Bing rode his horse back and forth for a while, and even abandoned his horse and observed it at a high place. But he saw that the mountains next to the intersection were extremely steep.

It was not suitable to garrison troops at the top, so I had to abandon my original idea and, as Ma Zhong said, erecting Dazhai at the intersection.

However, Xue Bing still commanded the soldiers to build more fortifications such as arrow towers, but he really played the Three Kingdoms version of the Empire Age.

Looking back, this was the first time he had fought a blocking battle in the wild, and it was also the first time he had built such a large-scale fortification. It was also thanks to Ma Zhong who was by his side.

Otherwise, Xue Bing, who did not know how to arrange fortifications such as the Arrow Tower, really had the urge to build a densely packed defense tower when playing games in the past.

While constantly building the arrow tower, Xue Bing was also causing people to cut wood everywhere and then made some simple arrow branches to store. In Xue Bing's words, "If the barbarians don't come, they will stop. If they come, they will ask them to taste the flying arrows in the sky."

Xue Bing was busy here, but news from Zhuge Liang was also constantly coming.

Since Xue Bing led the army out of the brigade, Zhuge Liang personally led the army to Huichuan. The vanguard Zhang He had fought with Meng Huo several times. The two sides won and lost each other, and the confrontation began under the city of Huichuan. However, in general.

But Zhang He suffered a small loss. After all, his few soldiers were defeated by Meng Huo for a while, and after defeating Meng Huo for a while, he was trapped by Dong Tuna, the cave owner of Meng Huo for a while, and his troops retreated ten miles.

Fortunately, Yu Jin led his army out and rescued Zhang He, so he did not let the barbarians take advantage of the situation to defeat the Han army. However, as a result, the barbarian army became more powerful and had more soldiers. He even fought with Zhang He and Yu Jin for several formations without any disadvantage.

After Zhuge Liang learned that Zhang He had been unable to stop fighting the barbarian army, he personally led the army to camp outside Huichuan. He used the plan to defeat Meng Huo for a while.

However, since Meng Huo was captured by Zhuge Liang once, he became a little alert. Since he was defeated, he could not defend himself. Either the army would leave the city and fight hard, otherwise he would station a large army in the city.

Seeing Meng Huo's tactics, Zhuge Liang had no good plans for a moment, so he had to ask his generals to take turns to fight. While investigating the terrain near Huichuan, he was looking for a way to break the enemy.

During the past few messages, Xue Bing had been garrisoning here for more than a month. The village had been built like a fortress.

Moreover, after Xue Bing's suggestion, in addition to those arrow towers, hidden fortifications were laid out everywhere in Dazhai. Perhaps a very ordinary stone pestle was inside the crossbowman arranged by Xue Bing.

However, after staying for a long time, he never saw the attack of the barbarians. Xue Bing felt very bored and sat in the big tent every day and chatted with Ma Zhong.

But Ma Zhong also had to inspect the village every day, so where did he get so much time to chat with Xue Bing? So most of the time, Xue Bing could only sit in the big tent and couldn't stay, so it was convenient for him to walk around the village.

He wanted to go out of the village to go shopping on the mountain next to him, but as soon as he mentioned the village, the soldiers of the Feiyu Army did not agree or say it, and Ma Zhong repeatedly advised him. He did not say anything else, but said: "Now the military advisor asked the general to guard this place, because he knew the danger here.

If the barbarian army passes from now on, the military advisors will be in danger. But when will the barbarian army arrive, how can the general leave the camp without authorization?"

When Xue Bing heard Ma Zhong's words, she gave up the idea of ​​leaving the village to relax.

Although he wanted to say to Ma Zhong, "I have sent Feiyu's soldiers to investigate twenty miles forward. If a barbarian army comes, I will know early that there is no need to worry about the enemy coming and the general is not present.

"But thinking about it, the war is coming soon, and I left the village to play, which is a bit outrageous, so I stopped thinking about this. Instead, I thought to myself: "No matter which barbarian general leads his troops, lead the army quickly!"

However, Meng Huotun's army in Huichuan was stalemate with Zhuge Liang for a long time, and his heart became more and more proud. At this time, he had heard Gao Ding's description of Zhuge Liang and knew that this person was the number one think tank under the King of Hanzhong and had counted and defeated Cao Cao's army.

Now, the first military advisor under the King of Hanzhong has no choice but to do anything to him. Doesn’t it mean that he is also one of the few generals in the world?

Thinking of this, I felt even more proud. I also thought that Zhuge Liang's army was stationed under Huichuan. If the strange army he contacted first arrived, he would not only defeat all the Han army, but also take advantage of the opportunity to capture several counties and advance to Xichuan.

No way, I can lead the army straight into Xichuan and compete with the King of Hanzhong. "Let's see if he is powerful in Hanzhong, or is my Southern King powerful!" He chuckled, picked up the big bowl in front of him and drank it.

The masters from the left and right caves were happy when they saw the king, so they raised their bowls to drink together. These days, they had a victory or defeat with the Han army, which made the masters of the caves even more respectful to the new king Menghou.

I just said that with Meng Huo, there will be countless glory in the future. There will be as many women as you want, and as much as you want, as much as you want, as it is now.

These people were eating and drinking, but Meng Huo put down his big bowl and said to the cave owner: "I will send someone to mobilize reinforcements first, will there be any news coming back?"

There is a cave master named Ah Huinan below. Hearing Menghuo's words, he hurriedly replied: "Return to the king, I sent people to recruit reinforcements first, and have returned it."

Meng Huo kept tearing off a piece of delicious barbecue from his hand and murmured to Ah Hui: "However, what news is coming back? Have the troops and food I want been prepared?"

Ah Huinan endured the urge to tear a piece of fragrant meat and chewed it heavily, and replied: "The food and grass are already transported, but they are passing through Yunnan, running south of Lushui, then crossing the Lushui River, and transporting it to Huichuan. As for the troops and horses mentioned by the king, they have also set off."

Upon hearing this, Meng Huo put the food at hand aside and asked, "How many soldiers have been recruited, who will lead it? How long will it take to arrive?"

Ah Hui replied: "There was a temporary recruitment, and many remote soldiers and horses were not yet recruited. Therefore, only 30,000 soldiers and horses were transferred.

Now, the army, following the king's deployment, passed Jianning, walked through Shakou, and then crossed the Lu River, rushed from east to Huichuan, and took the Han army directly to the side." At this point, Ah Hui murmured for a moment, took a peek at Meng Huo and said, "This leading general is Zhurong.

”

As soon as this said, Meng Huo's face froze. Ah Huimang saw Meng Huo's expression and said to himself: "I heard that the king had asked Zhu Rong for marriage, but he had eaten it. I think this matter is true.

"When thinking about this, he stopped talking and just silently retreated back to his seat.

Meng Huo's face changed several times, and after a moment of time he returned to normal, he said to the master of the cave: "With Zhurong leading the army, he can defeat the Han army for a while and then achieve great things." After that, he laughed loudly, as if there was nothing to do.

But he said in his heart: "After that humiliation of me, Zhurong had no news, but why did he lead the army now?"

It turned out that Meng Huo ascended the throne that day and met Zhu Rong behind the tent.

With the alcohol, Meng Huo immediately mentioned his marriage to Zhurong and said, "I am the only hero in the south. You once said that you only wish to make a great hero. Now that I have become the king of the south, I am unparalleled. Why not just follow me!"

But Zhu Rong glanced at him with a squinted eyes and said disdainfully: "But becoming the King of the South is so arrogant. It's not too late to come again when you are famous all over the world!" After that, he didn't even give Meng Huo one, so he went there.

Only Meng Huo's eyes widened behind him, and he didn't believe that he was rejected so simply...

Meng Huo laughed, but said in his heart: "When I take all the land in the south, then the troops enter Xichuan. At that time, he led the army into the Central Plains and created the glory of our clan.

Everyone in the world knows that I, Nanzhong Menghuo, at that time, I thought you would still say that I am not a hero?”

Besides, Xue Bing has been stationed in the east of Huichuan for nearly two months. In addition to practicing martial arts every day, he also inspected Dazhai. His life was very boring.

Until this day, a Feiyu soldier rushed back and reported, "I found a large group of barbarians thirty miles ahead!" Xue Bing was not surprised and happy when he heard the news, and said lightly, "It's up. I've been idle for two months, but I'm about to fade out of the birds."

"After saying that, he ordered his left and right: "The whole army prepares for war, and call General Ma Zhong to discuss the enemy's plan with me." After the order was finished, he remembered and asked the Feiyu soldier: "How many troops are there in the barbarian army, who are leading the army? Have you ever explored it?"

The Feiyu Soldier replied, "I only saw the barbarians from afar on the mountain wall. Looking at their formation, the troops should be about 30,000. The general who led the army had never been able to explore it!"
