Chapter 167.com

Xue Bing held the horse and looked at her body as hard as possible to lean towards one side of the mountain wall, while on the other side was a cliff that fell down and could not even find the body.

Looking around, I felt dizzy in my head. Gu Qishen couldn't see the bottom at first glance. After touching his forehead, Xue Bing was still a little uncomfortable walking on this terrain.

The plank road under his feet is only two wide, but when he really walks, he can only walk one by one, and fighting horses is even more troublesome.

The war horse was afraid and did not dare to walk the plank road. Xue Bing could not do so, so he had to order people to use materials locally and make a simple eye mask to block both sides of the war horse's eyes, so that it could only see the small scene in front of him.

Looking back, the winding plank road was endless on the mountain, and there was no end to see it in front and behind. On the plank road, there were many soldiers lined up in a long row and moving forward. But the soldiers were far apart.

Because Xue Bing was afraid that the plank road would not be able to withstand the pressure of so many people together, it collapsed.

I looked around and saw that although the plank road looked scary, it seemed to be very sturdy now, so there was no need to worry about an accident like collapse.

Turning back, Xue Bing walked a little more solidly and said to Wang Ping, who was leading the way, "How long will it take to walk this plank road?"

Wang Ping led the way in front and replied after hearing this: "Go back to General, the Ziwu Valley is 660 miles in front and behind. Although it is not very long, the mountain walls are steep and the plank roads are crisscrossing. Especially these plank roads are the most difficult to walk, and the army cannot pass together, so it is quite time-consuming. According to the estimates of the last general, I think that the army can reach a flat and wide place until tomorrow, and then I need to continue walking a section of the plank road to speed up.

”

When Xue Bing heard this, she felt her head full, so she asked, "How many days will it take to walk on the back of the plank road?"

Wang Ping replied again: "The difficult part of that plank road is not below the one in front. If one person walks, he can pass quickly. If the army wants to cross this road, it is probably going to last more than a day and a night."

When Xue Bing heard this, she stroked her forehead with her hand, but remembered the plank road she had been walking on the previous two days ago.

Two days ago, the plank road that Xue Bing's army was extremely narrow and was built on extremely high cliffs. Ordinary people felt dizzy when walking, and the passing of the army at this time made people feel even more stressed.

I was afraid that the plank road would collapse suddenly, so everyone was cautious when walking. In this way, the marching speed would not be fast even if it wanted to be fast.

Xue Bing thought about the scene of the marching these days, and then silently calculated the time he had spent in his heart: "The army began to trek on countless plank roads within two days after entering the valley.

The elders walk for two or three days, the shortest ones go down half a day, and the tallest ones go down thousands of feet. Look up from the top, not to mention the bottom of the valley. Even the lower ones can’t be seen below the mountain, and the lower ones can be hundreds of feet. The plank roads are different in width, and the wide ones can accommodate several people. The narrow ones.

I was very frightened when I walked alone.

Seeing all this, after walking in the valley for nearly ten days, Xue Bing finally understood why many people wanted to go this way to attack the other party, but no one succeeded.

Wei Yan had wanted to lead ten thousand people to pass Ziwu Valley for ten days, but now it seems that it is unlikely to succeed. He only led five thousand people to go, but now he has been going down for seven or eight days, and there are still many roads not to go. And Wei Yan wanted to lead ten thousand people.

The march speed would only be slower, and at the same time he said that the tenth day of the valley... Xue Bing looked at the mountain wall next to the mountain and the plank road at his feet. "Ten days, I wonder if he can walk halfway..."

But after doing this, Xue Bing didn't know if the 15th Sunrise Valley he had set could be completed, so he asked Wang Ping again: "Zi Jun thinks how long does it take for our army to leave this valley?"

While paying attention to his feet, Wang Ping estimated in his heart until Xue Bing and others were a little impatient. Then he said: "Go back to the general. According to the last general's estimate, it will take ten days before the army can leave the valley at the earliest."

Xue Bing heard this.

His eyebrows frowned and said to his heart: "Ten days? Including the eight days of land has been spent, it will take 18 days in total? After leaving the valley, there are only less than two days left. How can we get to the city of Chang'an?" He said to his left and right: "If this continues, we must speed up the marching speed.

"He asked Wang Ping again: "Zijun is just talking, is there a spacious place in front?"

Wang Ping said: "Yes, there is a spacious place in front of you for the army to stay. But should the general let the army camp here?"

Xue Bing thought in his heart: "Sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood. We must hurry up in the next few days, and let the army rest for half a day first, and then we have the strength to rush.

"Then nodded and said to Wang Ping: "Get the army to rest here for half a day, and then hurry up and hurry up. Don't stop. You must leave Ziwu Valley within eight days." After that, he added another sentence: "Stop, wait until you arrive in Chang'an!"...

Spring of the 20th year of Jian'an.

On the one hand, Guan Yu took Zhao Lei as the governor of grain, responsible for the transportation of grain and grass. Within a few days, Xiangyang's grain and grass arrived. Guan Yu personally led the army northward, conquered several places in succession, and headed straight to Wancheng.

On the one hand, Xiahou Dun first led 30,000 troops to help the battle. Guan Yu was about to arrive soon, but he didn't want to stay for a few days. Before Guan Yu arrived, Cao Cao sent his son Cao Zhang to lead 50,000 troops to Wancheng to resist Guan Yu's army.

In mid-January of the Spring, Cao Cao sent two armies to set up defenses in Wancheng, and Guan Yu's army began to reach the bottom of Wancheng. At first, Guan Yu called out the battle outside the city, and Xiahou Dun and Cao Zhang went out of the city to fight one after another, but were both defeated by Guan Yu.

In this way, Xiahou Dun did not come back and resisted Guan Yu with the strength of Wancheng. Although Guan Yu led his troops to attack for a while, he did not fight to the death.

This was Xu Shu who was supervising him later, but when Guan Yu attacked fiercely, he immediately called the gold and stopped the troops, and then advised him to rest for a few days before he let him go again and called a war.

After attacking for a month in a row, Guan Yu was very frustrated, and Xiahou Dun finally breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, although Guan Yu's offensive was fierce, he had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at the strongest city of Wan, and Guan Yu had no choice but to do anything to him for a while.

On this day, Guan Yu led his troops to attack for another time. In the evening, Xu Shu hurriedly called out the gold to withdraw his troops. When Guan Yu led his troops back, he rushed to recruit generals to discuss matters in the tent.

Guan Yu said, "The King of Hanzhong ordered me first, and led me to trap the Cao soldiers in Wancheng. When February arrived, he sent someone to take Wuguan and Qingni Pass." After that, he looked around and asked, "Who is willing to go?"

The generals in the tent glanced at each other and saw Lu Xun coming out and said, "These days, all the generals have fought with Cao Bing. If one of them suddenly disappeared, it will inevitably make Cao Bing suspicious.

Xun hid in the camp all day long, and Cao Bing didn't know that Lu Xun's people would be better off doing Xun's behavior this time!"

Xu Shu also nodded and said, "What Bo Yan said is very much. Whether General Guan Ping or General Liao Hua, they fought with Cao's troops for several formations, and the enemy generals knew him. If he suddenly disappeared, it would inevitably make the enemy suspicious.

If Bo Yan leaves, he will be spared this worry.”

Guan Yu also nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I will send 5,000 soldiers to you and go to the country to help you."

But before he finished speaking, he heard one person in the account leave work and said, "I am willing to walk with you!"

Everyone looked at it, but it was Guan Yu's second son Deng Ai.

Guan Yu was overjoyed and said, "My son is willing to go with him, it's best!" So he asked Deng Ai to be the deputy general of Lu Xun. The two of them led their troops together, and Wang Fu suppressed them. They took advantage of the night to protect him. Cao's army did not investigate and secretly rushed to Wuguan.

At the same time, Liu Bei's main force in the Sichuan confronted Xu Huang from Tianshui to the south of the Yellow River. At the same time, he also caused Ma Chao, his companion Ma Dai and veteran Huang Zhong to lead 10,000 troops and 5,000 Qiang cavalry to go straight to the northwest. Wherever the troops pointed, Cao's soldiers fled in a hurry.

After more than ten days of advancing, he captured several places without a fight.

On this day, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong led their troops to occupy another land. Ma Chao smiled and said to Huang Zhong: "Now, Longyou is all in our army. Just take down Wuwei again, and Liangzhou will be fully obtained! This time, it will be another success!"

Huang Zhong also laughed and said, "Everyone relies on Meng Qi's reputation for this, and even Cao's soldiers heard the sound and fled! Since ancient times, Meng Qi is the only one who has taken the land of the whole province without fighting!" After the two of them said that, they laughed loudly.

At that time, the spy came to report that Cao Hong, the commander of Anding, sent all his troops and horses to come along the Great Wall, heading straight here to rescue Wuwei.

Ma Chao received the report and just smiled and said, "This person is seeking death, so we must not blame me for waiting! I heard that his brother had called Guan Gong's eldest son Guan Ping in Fancheng, so I will send him to reunite with him."

Huang Zhongze said: "This time I went north, the land in Longyou was taken by General Ma, and I have not made any contribution yet. It would be better than Cao Hong to leave it to me to deal with it, and I will not return empty-handed."

Seeing Huang Zhong's words, Ma Chao smiled and said, "Since the old general said so, Cao Hong would give the enemy to the old general. I will lead my army to Tuxi County, and then you and I can attack Wuwei with a great victory."

Huang Zhong also said: "Great kindness!" At this moment, the two agreed to a plan and immediately allocated troops, horses, food and grass. The next morning, they led their troops separately...

However, Huang Zhong led five thousand soldiers and horses straight to the Great Wall, intending to intercept Cao Hong's troops on the way. After a few days of travel, he came to the horse and reported, "Forty miles ahead, I found the Cao army's village!"

Huang Zhong was stunned and said to himself: "Cao Hong has explored my movements in advance? Otherwise, why did he set up a big village to wait for me?" He was suspicious at the moment and did not dare to lead troops to attack Cao Hong's village. He led the soldiers to get down to the camp nearby and sent more horses to check.

He waited until the camp was established and the horses were explored to return the message: "I didn't see any other military horses on both sides, but I saw Cao Hong's camp there." When Huang Zhong heard this, he felt relieved and said to himself: "I think it's because Cao's soldiers are tired from afar, so I'm resting here.

But I was just about to catch up with me." Thinking of this, I was secretly annoyed in my heart. I didn't take the opportunity to advance, otherwise I would have called Cao Hong's body and head different from each other.

At this time, in the Cao army camp opposite, Cao Hong was talking to the man opposite, and heard Cao Hong say, "Prince Cheng asked me to lead the army here and stop to get the Sichuan army to arrive.

The Imakawa army has arrived, and you still need to repay the prefect. I only say that the Chuan army has divided the troops. Ma Chao and may have gone to Tuxi County by themselves. I hope that the prefect will make preparations early.”

The man replied respectfully: "Prince Cheng had given a command, so he only asked the general to entangle the Sichuan soldiers here, and Lord Cheng had his own plan to break the enemy."

Cao Hong nodded and said, "I just hope that the prefect can really defeat the Sichuan soldiers by becoming the prefect." After that, he looked down at the map.
