In late May, a heavy rain finally fell in Guanzhong, temporarily driving away the sweltering heat.

The sky after the rain is blue and transparent, a soft rainbow floats in the east, and a few white clouds with gold edges float in the sky and dissipate...

The dust settled onto the damp ground, and a slightly damp smell filled the air.

The trees in the courtyard were covered with water drops, like strings of shining silver beads.

Secretary Zhang was sitting by the window, lying on the edge of the window with his hands folded, looking leisurely out of the window after the rain.

This heavy rain can be said to have relieved her worries for many days.

It is the time to resume production in Guanzhong. If there is another severe drought, it will really make people miserable.

Over the years, God's temper has become increasingly weird.

Sometimes there are severe floods, sometimes severe droughts, one year is warm and two years are cold, it is really unpredictable.

However, God took good care of Guanzhong this year, and it rained heavily just in time, so Secretary Zhang was in a good mood.

General Guan stood in front of the map with her hands behind her back, and could not clearly see the expression on her face.

Feng Junhou, who was sitting behind General Guan, threw the military report on the table with an ugly face, raised his head and closed his eyes.

At the same time, he untied his outer robe, pulled the hem of his clothes and fanned each other a few times, as if the moisture after the rain had not driven away any heat from his body.

"Send the Wudang Battalion over from the beginning, not the Engineering Battalion."

Feng Junhou slapped him a few times, opened his eyes again, and sighed.

Shangdang is a closed basin surrounded by mountains.

Wei Yan did not go directly over the mountain from Hedong County, but deliberately went around to Taiyuan County, intending to go down the Nirvana River.

I never thought that I still underestimated the difficulty of joining the Shangdang Party.

The various professional equipment of the engineering camp are difficult to transport on the rugged mountain roads of Shangdang.

Facing the dangerous pass leaning against the mountain, the equipment of the engineering battalion did not play the role expected.

Stone cannons can collapse city walls, but they cannot collapse mountains.

Wudang Camp is different.

If Modao Camp is a heavy infantry battalion, then Wudang Camp is a mid-mountain combat camp.

In an environment like Shangdang's, the Wudang camp played a far greater role than the engineering camp.

Feng Junhou spoke, but neither General Guan nor Secretary Zhang answered.

Secretary Zhang was still lying on the window sill and looking out the window with interest.

Shuangshuang and Ah Chong were happily playing in the water in the courtyard.

Ah Chong jumped in with both feet and water splashed everywhere.

The two people next to me splashed with water on their faces.

They both saw the opportunity and jumped vigorously onto another pool of water next to them.

"Bah!"

Ah Chong's face was also stained with water.

So he jumped harder than before...

Jumping and jumping, the two began to fight again.

Finally it rolled into the muddy water, like a mud monkey.

Ah Shun stood in the corridor, jumping with his feet from time to time, and kept applauding his sister and brother.

His eyes were full of envy and adoration.

He also wanted to go down and play in the water. It would be better if he could roll around.

It was just that the pain from my mother’s whip afterward was too painful, so after thinking about it, I decided to forget it and just stand on it and watch.

General Guan turned his back to the window, looking at the map intently, tilting his head slightly from time to time to compare it with the sand table next to him.

Shangdang has not yet recovered, so the terrain sand table has not been drawn yet.

The upper part of the map on the wall was made up with reference to previous maps. Not only is it rough, but its accuracy is questionable.

The two wives did not speak, but Feng Junhou himself was still talking:

"Wei Yan is an old man. If others don't understand, doesn't he understand too? How long has it been? I don't know if I'll send someone back to say something."

This military report is an observation military report sent back by the military staff.

I thought it would be difficult to recapture Shangdang, but after all, the number of thieves was only a few thousand.

After sending Wei Yan, a fierce general, and the engineering battalion to cooperate with the siege, there won't be any big problems.

However, judging from the current situation, although it cannot be said to be a capsize, it is indeed unexpected.

I thought it would be nothing more than a small to medium-sized battle, so most of the staff officers sent there were trainees.

But in Feng Junhou's view, those staff officers have no experience, and the old man Wei who has been fighting for a lifetime doesn't understand?

He actually stood there so stubbornly and didn't explain the situation to the rear.

Hearing what Feng Junhou said, Zhang Xiaosi finally turned around and rolled his eyes:

"You also know that he is an old man who has been fighting all his life? If he can't win over a small party with the troops he has at hand, then where can he put his face?"

"Now he is the general of Zhendong. He has led so many people, and yet he has to shamelessly come to you for help. Aren't you afraid that he will not be able to hold his head high in front of you in the future?"

Feng Junhou groaned.

Even if Wei Yan can be captured in the end, there is a difference in when he is captured and at what cost.

In the eyes of old man Wei, his own face was more important than the lives of his soldiers.

Think about it, how could you have done something like this in history, because you were ashamed and angry, you succumbed to Yang Yi and led the troops to start internal strife?

Secretary Zhang spoke, and General Guan tapped a certain location on the map and said:

"Based on the current speed, it may take a long time, and we may not be able to win it in the end."

When Feng Junhou heard this, he quickly stood up and approached: "What do you say?"

"Here." General Guan flexed his fingers and tapped Hanoi with his knuckle, "The main force of the Liangzhou Army is in the east of Hedong, so Jiang Ji may not dare to move for the time being."

"But if Shangdang delays for too long, he may not keep waiting."

One hundred thousand Wei troops were stationed in Luoyang, and 50,000 were stationed in Hanoi, across the river from Luoyang.

"Sima Yi is not a simple person. The total number of bandits in Henan and Hanoi is 150,000."

"It's not a big problem to transfer 20,000 to 30,000 people from Hanoi to Yecheng. We can't hope that the thieves will watch us eat the Shangdang and do nothing."

Shangdang cannot be defended. Not only did Feng Junhou think so, he believed that Sima Yi could see this too.

Therefore, from the beginning, Wei State may not have the confidence to defend it.

But if it drags on for too long and Shangdang is unable to attack for a long time, then Wei will definitely react.

It was really going to turn into a fuel war. At this juncture, Feng Junhou was really not sure that he could continue to use up his energy.

After all, heavy troops are stationed in Lantian (corresponding to the direction of Wuguan) and Tongguan.

Bingzhou and Jiuyuan will also send troops there.

In addition, Wei Yan and some of his troops were entangled by the Shangdang.

The main force of the Liangzhou Army has always stayed in Hedong.

He brought Hu Qiyi to join the army and has already returned to Liangzhou with the armored cavalry army.

After all, there is no major war now. If the Yi Congjun stays here, it will not only cause chaos, but also increase the logistical pressure.

The Hanzhong army sounds like a lot, but once they are divided like this, only the two brothers-in-law are left to lead the North and South armies as strategic mobile forces, and are also responsible for the task of defending Chang'an.

Because of this, Feng Junhou was extremely annoyed that Wei Yan could not capture Shangdang as planned and failed to explain the situation ahead in time.

"ordinary man!"

Feng Junhou cursed bitterly.

General Guan was much calmer. She shook her head:

"No matter how much we say now, it's useless. Even if we send the Wudang Battalion to support us, I'm afraid it won't be in time. I can only believe that General Wei can capture Shangdang even if it takes longer."

"Then what should we do? Can we just wait like this?"

Feng Junhou frowned and looked at the word Huguan on the map, feeling helpless.

"Alang, let's go to Hedong." General Guan suddenly said, "Go to Hedong for inspection."

"Um?"

Feng Junhou was a little stunned.

General Guan kept his eyes on the map and suddenly chuckled:
To be continued...
