Chapter 157 Five Thousand Elite Soldiers
He hugged Zhu Rong with his left hand and Sun Shangxiang with his right hand. Xue Bing lay among the two girls, feeling very proud. He took so much saliva last night, and finally convinced the two girls, and the three of them were sleeping on the same bed.
But it's just a sleep, and it's impossible to do something.
But Xue Bing had no time to continue enjoying it. After having a warm relationship with the two women for a month, Brazilian defender Wang Ping immediately led 5,000 elite soldiers from Brazil to Chengdu after receiving the transfer order.
On the day Wang Ping arrived in Chengdu, he didn't even have time to take a break, so he was pulled over by Xue Bing and Zhao Yun to discuss the training.
Because Chengdu soldiers and horses were about to follow Liu Bei's actions, the three thousand elite soldiers proposed by Xue Bing need to be transferred from another place. According to Zhuge Liang's plan, soldiers and horses should be transferred from Hanzhong for training, and then they will be led by Xue Bing.
Therefore, there was another order in the transfer order to Wang Ping, which was to lead him to lead five thousand Hanzhong elite soldiers back to Chengdu together.
After receiving the order, Wang Ping immediately rushed to Hanzhong and asked Wei Yan to send troops. Wei Yan had already received the order. The five thousand troops had already been prepared, and Wang Ping came to deliver the troops.
At the same time, Wei Yan also handed a letter to Wang Ping.
Wang Ping looked puzzled, but he didn't know who gave him a letter. After he opened it, he realized that the letter was in Wei Yan's hands with a series of orders from Chengdu, and clearly stated that when Wang Ping arrived, he would give the letter to him.
Wei Yan received the order and was always thinking about this matter. He even carried the letter with him, for fear that Wang Ping would arrive, and the letter would not be there.
After reading this letter, Wang Ping realized that the letter was written by Xue Bing. However, when he led five thousand soldiers to look for Chengdu and returned, he had to hurry up and arrive in Chengdu in the shortest time.
And he had to take a dangerous mountain road along the way. If someone fell behind, he would immediately send him back to Hanzhong. Wang Pingguan finished his smile. He smiled bitterly and said to himself, "General Xue has asked for another trouble for himself."
Wei Yan was beside him. After seeing Wang Ping reading the letter, he asked, "What is the saying in the letter?" He was afraid that there would be another order, so he stood aside and asked after Wang Ping finished reading it.
When Wang Ping heard Wei Yan's question, he had to smile bitterly and answered, "What can I do? But General Xue found another chore for General Xu." As he said that, he handed the letter in his hand to Wei Yan.
Wei Yan took the letter and looked at it for a few seconds. Then he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. In the end, his whole face changed. Fortunately, he turned red, otherwise his face would have changed.
He patted Wang Ping on the shoulder with his hand. Wei Yan held back his laughter and said to him: "Take care all the way!" After that, he could no longer bear it. Haha burst into laughter.
Wang Ping shook his head and had to say with a bitter face: "Forget it, forgot, who told me to be the most familiar with the terrain of Hanzhong?"
Afterwards, Wang Ping ordered his troops and did not stop for much, and immediately led 5,000 soldiers to pick up the dangerous mountain road. He marched continuously along the way and finally arrived in Chengdu in the shortest time. The road took more than a month. No one fell behind.
This achievement made Wang Ping very satisfied, but he was tortured and covered in dust. His silver armor was covered with mud and gray, and he looked very embarrassed.
By the way, Xue Bing and Zhao Yun met Wang Pingshi outside Chengdu, and saw that the five thousand soldiers were all like this, each of them looked listless and had no energy at all. He immediately knew how much hardship these soldiers suffered. Xue Bing asked briefly.
Then he ordered: "All soldiers will return to the camp to rest for three days and start training in three days."
When these soldiers heard the news, they cheered together. But these days they have made them a little devastating.
You should know that Wang Ping knew very well about the terrain of Hanzhong area. It was the most difficult to walk and how to walk the most tormenting. He knew very well in his heart. And Xue Bing's order was to pick the most difficult path.
And he had to arrive in Chengdu in the shortest time, so Wang Ping naturally did not dare to neglect it.
At that time, these five thousand soldiers were led through the mountains in Hanzhong for a long time, and then through the mountains of Xichuan for a while. After arriving at the plains, they rushed to Chengdu day and night. The rest time was less than an hour every day.
After a month of continuous progress, even though these soldiers were elite soldiers of the main combat regiment, they felt unbearable.
The soldiers returned to the camp to rest, but Wang Ping was caught by Xue Bing and pulled him straight to his mansion, asking some questions all the way. Wang Ping had to endure the fatigue and answered one by one with all his energy.
After a few people arrived at Xue's mansion, Xue Bing immediately ordered the room to clean up, prepare bath water, prepare a banquet, and prepare a hospitality for Wang Ping.
Only then did Wang Ping realize that Xue Bing took him all the way back to the mansion to entertain him at his mansion. He was very grateful and thanked him endlessly.
After a while, the servant said that the hot water was ready, Xue Bing smiled and said to Wang Ping: "Zijun, let's wash the dust first. I will prepare wine and food in the hall to wait for you."
When Wang Ping heard this, he bowed again, and then he followed the people. After he left, Xue Bing said to Zhao Yun again: "Zilong, go to the back hall with me." Zhao Yun responded for a moment, and then followed Xue Bing to look at the back hall.
He has been here in the Xue Mansion many times, and he has already become familiar with it. He also knows that Xue Bing has the habit of entertaining friends in the inner hall of the backyard.
When you come to the backyard hall, the most conspicuous thing is the large table in the hall. This table is usually standing aside and will only be placed in the hall when you wait for meals.
Moreover, because everyone was kneeling in the Han Dynasty, the table was not high and it couldn't take up much space after standing up.
At this time, the big table had been arranged in the hall, and there were servants looking at the wine and food. Chicken, duck, fish and other things were common, and there were also several green vegetables.
Although Zhao Yun was not greedy for his mouth, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw this rich table of dishes.
In the late Han Dynasty, the people were displaced. Even wealthy families rarely saw fresh vegetables when they were eating. In comparison, chicken, fish and other meats were better solved.
Seeing that the servants had almost finished the food and food, Xue Bing said to Zhao Yun, "Please sit in Zilong!" Then he took the lead in the main seat. When Zhao Yun also sat down, he talked with him about the training of troops in a few days.
Not long after, Wang Ping arrived and Xue Bing invited him to sit together. He took out the wine left and right, and drank a glass with the two of them before saying, "I have arrived today. In a few days, we will start to train this army.
Zijun led this army for more than a month, what do you think?”
When Wang Ping heard this, he hurriedly put down his wine glass and replied, "I will lead these five thousand soldiers to travel through mountains and rivers, and specialize in steep lands. However, none of the five thousand soldiers fell behind. It can be seen that these soldiers are all elite soldiers in Hanzhong.
But I don’t know what kind of mission General Xue wants this team to perform? Why do you have to practice like this on the road?"
Wang Ping did not know the plan of Ziwu Valley. It should be said that no one under the King of Hanzhong, except for those who participated in the discussions over the past few days, knew the specific strategy of the Northern Expedition.
Even the Northern Expedition had not been mentioned to anyone. Most generals only vaguely noticed that a war was about to break out based on a series of orders issued by the King of Hanzhong these days.
For example, Wang Ping and Wei Yan led their troops outside to guard important towns.
They were all commanding soldiers. When the King of Hanzhong made a big move, how could these two people not know? Several orders came, and both of them guessed in their hearts that the King of Hanzhong was going to rectify the troops and lead the army north.
In this regard, both of them were waiting for the next instructions with anticipation. After all, for generals, the best way to achieve greater merit is to make contributions on the battlefield.
Moreover, the bigger the battle, the easier it is to make great contributions. Originally, Wei Yan and Wang Ping thought that their next task was to prepare their troops and horses. They were ready to wait for dispatch at any time. Unexpectedly, a sudden transfer order came, and Wang Ping led 5,000 troops back to Chengdu.
At that time, Wang Ping also thought about it secretly and finally concluded that the king of Hanzhong led a large army out, and he guarded Chengdu. Or maybe the troops in Sichuan were insufficient, so he took him to escort his troops and horses, and at the same time he followed the army in Sichuan.
But he received another letter from Xue Bing, and he trained soldiers like he did on the road.
As a result, Wang Ping was completely confused. He couldn't understand what the order was for, and he didn't even know what his next task was. Therefore, this question was asked at this time.
When Xue Bing heard Wang Ping's words, he looked at Zhao Yun for a while. Seeing him nodded, he then put all the left and right away, and then filled Wang Ping with a glass of wine. Then he said softly: "This time, all the tricks are coming. I have a heavy responsibility to entrust you."
Seeing Wang Ping listening intently, Xue Bing continued: "Zijun is familiar with the roads in Hanzhong. Can you tell me the roads in Ziwu Valley?"
When Wang Ping heard this, his face changed, and then he thought that Xue Bing had been traveling with poor mountains and rivers before. Could it be that it was because of this? He hurriedly asked: "General Xue's words mean that the king wanted to send an army out of Ziwu Valley to attack Chang'an?"
Xue Bing nodded and replied, "Yes!" Then he saw Wang Ping's face changing, and then continued, "And this army is led by the three of us."
Wang Ping looked at Xue Bing and then at Zhao Yun beside him. He was not very familiar with Zhao Yun, but he also knew Zhao Yun's status around the King of Hanzhong. There were two of the Five Tiger Generals in this army, so he could guess the importance of this army.
At that moment, I thought to myself: "The king valued this army so much that General Xue and General Zhao led this army together, and came to me again. I think it was because I was familiar with geography.
"I immediately understood my identity and immediately said to Xue Bing: "The last general has walked the Ziwu Valley path several times. The road is as dangerous as it is, and it is not suitable for a large army to go through. However, this is why it can be effective for a surprise attack.
Now the king has raised five thousand soldiers and horses... Please forgive the general for saying frankly that there are many five thousand soldiers and horses!"
Xue Bing nodded and replied with a smile: "I have been thinking about this matter for a long time. In my opinion, these five thousand people will only leave three thousand in the end.
The most important thing now is to allow these three thousand soldiers to adapt to the mountain marching as soon as possible, so that they can still maintain sufficient combat power after quickly passing through the Ziwu Valley Road!" However, he saw the five thousand soldiers today. Although he arrived in Chengdu quickly, he had no combat power at all.
If this army was in the Northern Expedition, it would still be like this. Even if it left Ziwu Valley, it would be impossible to seize Chang'an again.
