Chapter 951: Five hundred thousand army leaves Qinchuan (second update)

"Swoosh."

Just under Kou Feng's expectant gaze, a sharp whistling sound, a crossbow arrow the size of a spear flew out from the crossbow bed.

In just a blink of an eye, the target in front of him was approaching.

With a loud bang, a whole crossbow arrow actually penetrated through the target and stared at the wall behind.

Kou Feng's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, which was really a killing weapon. If they were close, even soldiers wearing high-quality armor would be pierced.

Is this what is called a ten times more powerful than a continuous crossbow?

"Shi Yuan, this Northern Expedition, Gu has a 90% chance of winning in his heart." Kou Feng smiled and turned around and said to Pang Tong.

"In fact, this crossbow bed is not without weaknesses. It is really bulky and difficult to transport. Unless it is used to defend the city, it is difficult to be useful. Unless the enemy's cavalry directly attacks our headquarters." Pang Tong said.

"Shi Yuan forgot. He predicted that the enemy would fight first and then fight. Therefore, he would do everything in every battle. The ace in his hand was just one of them. The most important thing was the character and temper of the enemy general. Whether it was Ma Chao or Cao Hong, they were not very calm. They were extremely brave, but they rushed forward. Therefore, they would automatically send it."

Kou Feng said to Pang Tong with a smile.

"Ma Chao is full of energy, and Cao Hong is impatient." Pang Tong was silent for a moment when he heard this, and nodded.

"Haha. I have done everything I should do. I don't want to do it anymore. I'll take a good rest for two days and continue on the road the day after tomorrow." Kou Feng smiled, spread his arms and said.

Immediately, Kou Feng let Pang Tong go down to do things, and he himself went back to the prefect's mansion where he was temporarily staying for a rest.

Two days later, in Nanzheng City, in the hall of the prefect's mansion.

Kou Feng sat in the top position, on the left were the left general Pang Tong, the leader Fa Zheng, the lieutenant general Zhao Yun, the latter general Zhang Fei, the army general Chen Da, the guard general Kou Shui, the general Wu Yi, and the general Yuan Yue.

On the right are Shizhong Zhang Song, Shizhong Lu Su, Yan Pu, etc.

Except for Yan Pu who wanted to continue to guard Hanzhong and had enough soldiers and food in the rear, the rest of the people, including Zhang Song, who was a civil servant, and Lu Su, had to set out.

Kou Feng's expression was quite serious. After glanced at everyone, he said, "There is official news coming from the north. Han Sui set up a 100,000 army to join Ma Teng in Xianyang, and Cao Hong, who was responsible for guarding Tongguan, also set up a 50,000 cavalry and infantry to support him."

Only Kou Feng and Yan Pu know about this news at present.

Therefore, when Kou Feng spoke out, the civil and military officials present changed slightly. However, they were also elites of Chu, but their expressions changed slightly without losing their composure.

"Your Majesty, with the current situation, our hundreds of thousands of troops are piled up together and leaving Qinchuan from the slim valley, which is no longer suitable. If you are targeted by the enemy's cavalry as soon as you go out, you will suffer heavy losses." Fa Zheng, the leader of the Chinese army, immediately advised.

According to the plan, he came out of the slanting valley, used huge troops to attack steadily, and carried out a slow invasion. At the same time, he did not expect that Cao Hong would actually participate in the exhibition directly. According to their calculations, Cao Hong should have participated in the war after the war began.

"It is reasonable to speak filial piety and frankly, and we must divide the troops." Pang Tong nodded in agreement.

"Divid the troops?" Kou Feng's face showed a solemn look, and he looked up and said, "Come here, get the map."

"No." With Kou Feng's order, several guards immediately walked in with huge screens, with detailed Qinchuan maps drawn on the screen.

The so-called Qinchuan was named after the Qin State during the Warring States Period. From Shu*** Qinchuan, there are three roads to enter Yongliang. One is the Xigu, the other is the Ziwu Valley, and the other is the Shanggu.

Among them, Xigu and Ziwugu are roads that must be passed through Hanzhong. You can attack Jixian and Chang'an to the north, and continue to attack Xianyang.

Shangfanggu directly attacked Jicheng, Longxi and Jincheng.

Of course, when dividing troops, we did not go from the division of troops to Ziwu Valley. Instead, we divided troops to the Shangfang Valley and directly attacked Han Sui's old nest Jincheng, forcing Han Sui to return to the rescue.

To reduce the pressure on the enemy to enthrone the army.

However, Kou Feng still wondered which side of the main attack was, which side was a feint. Or both sides were the main attack.

"What do the general and the Central Leader have? Tell me directly?" Kou Feng said to Pang Tong and Fa Zheng.

"Assisted by cavalry, tens of thousands of infantry, came out of Dingjun Mountain, passed Wudu, went down to the upper valley, and then bypassed Jicheng, Longxi, Beiyuan, and headed straight to Jincheng, forcing Han Sui to return to the rescue." Pang Tong said, and said, he paused and said, "Your Majesty personally led the army out of the Xigu and entered the north. Attacked Ji County, after the capture, stabilized the situation, strengthened the city wall, and then slowly advanced."

"Is this trying to use Zhao Yun's ability to destroy Han Sui?" Kou Feng said with a graceful thought when he heard the sound. His eyes lit up.

"Yes, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry has a high reputation. If news of General Zhao Yun leading 50,000 cavalry deep into the north to attack Jincheng spread, Han Sui would definitely lead 70,000 cavalry to return to the rescue. In this way, as long as our infantry ambushed on the road that must be passed, they can use the power of the continuous crossbow and the continuous crossbow bed to destroy Han Sui."

Pang Tong nodded.

"Okay." Kou Feng exclaimed when he heard this. This method is good. Those in the north are all impulsive people, only Han Sui and Ma Teng are considered old foxes.

If it was possible to defeat Han Sui first and deal with Ma Chao, it would be easier for Cao Hong and others to do so.

"Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, Chen Da obeyed the order." After deciding the direction of the march, Kou Feng ordered.

"The last general is here." Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, and Chen Da immediately stood up and came to Kou Feng, and bowed down.

"Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun led his troops to attack according to the way the general said. He also brought another 1,500 crossbow beds. Chen Da, you divided 5,000 crossbow soldiers and Fa Zheng, and let them take them together."

Kou Feng ordered.

"No." Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, and Chen Da took the order and immediately turned around and walked out.

After the army was separated, Kou Feng fell into deep thought. Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun and Chen Da's half of the crossbow soldiers were the 105,000 cavalry and infantry soldiers.

With Fa Zheng as the main general and Zhao Yun as a powerful general, Kou Feng was no longer worried about that journey. The problem was the rest of the journey.

Among the remaining routes, there are 40,000 Pang Tong's men, 13,000 Chen Da's men, and 20,000 Zhang Fei's men. Currently, there are 20,000 troops of Deng Ai who is in charge of Dingjun Mountain. In addition, there are 40,000 troops of Yuan Yue.

There are 133,000 people in total.

Yuan Yue was one of the leaders of the three ethnic minorities when Kou Feng pacified Hanzhong. Only when those three leaders were quickly surrendered and quickly surrendered, could they save their lives.

Kou Feng ordered him to lead 40,000 strong men from ethnic minorities to station in Hanzhong. It has been more than a year now, but his combat effectiveness can only be said to be average.

Even half of the weapons were Chu Dao.

There are 133,000 people, and they can only be regarded as 120,000 people.

120,000. It was really challenging to directly attack Ji County and then besiege Xianyang, the old nest of Qin State.

"Send the order and order Deng Ai to set up 20,000 troops in Dingjun Mountain, exit from Xigu, and attack Ji County. The rest of the people followed Deng Ai's direction and went out of Xigu, and peeked at Yongliang." Kou Feng stood up slowly and ordered.

"No." The generals agreed.

Then they all turned around and left. Not long after, more than 100,000 troops led by Kou Feng personally set out for Dingjun Mountain.

Dingjun Mountain.

Since ancient times, it has been a place that must be fought for by military strategists. In history, Huang Zhong killed Xiahou Yuan, the general of Cao Wei here, which was the consolidation of Hanzhong. Therefore, after Kou Feng obtained Hanzhong, he sent Deng Ai to guard Dingjun Mountain.

However, Kou Feng knew that Ma Teng and Han Sui was unlikely to lead his troops south. The main reason for letting Deng Ai guard Dingjun Mountain was the attack, that is, to explore Xiabian and Wudu.

Although there have been no large-scale wars in these eleven months since Kou Fengxingba ascended the throne on January 1st of the first year of the year of Kou Fengxingba, small wars have continued.

Deng Ai also successfully captured Xiabian, and Wudu expanded the territory of Chu.

About two months ago, after Deng Ai captured Wudu, he also stationed Dingjun Mountain. He was able to cultivate and rest, waiting for the arrival of October of the first year of Xingba.

On this day, Deng Ai led some of his personal soldiers to look out to the north on the top of Dingjun Mountain. During these days, Deng Ai had to look out like this almost every day.

Because he knew that Kou Feng's army had left Shuzhong in October and entered Hanzhong. The day before yesterday, news came that it had entered Nanzheng.

The days to leave Qinchuan are not far away.

"A real man makes achievements and achievement is now." Deng Ai looked up to the north, and said in his heart.

Deng Ai is taciturn and seems to be cold and ruthless. But in fact, he is a person with a temperament and his heart is no less passionate than anyone else. Back then, Kou Feng chose Deng Ai and trained Deng Ai for so many years.

Deng Ai has always been in the military and made contributions on the battlefield. On the one hand, it is to repay Kou Feng's kindness for his understanding, and on the other hand, Deng Ai is also a proud and arrogant person.

The desire to achieve success can be said to be a person born to be a general.

"General, Your Majesty's edict has arrived. You are ordered to leave Dingjun Mountain and go straight to Xigu to attack Ji County." At this moment, a person with a personal soldier climbed up from below, holding a document in his hand and said to Deng Ai.

"Send troops." Deng Ai suddenly turned his head and said that he would send troops. His aura immediately changed, becoming fierce and fierce.

"No." The personal soldiers agreed and surrounded Deng Ai and went down Dingjun Mountain.

Not long after, Deng Ai personally led an army of 20,000 out of Dingjun Mountain to attack Ji County as a vanguard.

In November of the first year of Xingba, Kou Feng took Deng Ai as his vanguard in Hanzhong and raised 133,000 troops. He was known as a 500,000 army and went north to Qinchuan.

On the other hand, Fa Zheng led the cavalry of Zhao Yun and some of the crossbow soldiers. A total of 105,000 troops went out of the upper valley to attack Jincheng.

Xigu is not just a valley. There is also a road composed of a plank road. The full name of this road is Xigu Road. In history, Zhuge Liang made several northern expeditions, and this road attacked Yongliang for the last time.

At this moment, Kou Feng made a northern expedition. Deng Ai, as the vanguard, led his army to walk on this slanting valley road.

On the slanting valley road, Deng Ai, as a general, rode his horse in the middle. There were intact Chu soldiers in front and behind.

"General, in a while, it will be the slanting valley." Suddenly, a soldier came over in front and reported.

"Yeah." Deng Ai nodded, and his heart was filled with passion, because after leaving the silence valley, it was Yongliang.
