Chapter 742: Another village with dark willows and flowers (first update)

Kou Feng led 80,000 troops to attack Fuling and Ba County and go straight to Chengdu.

Of course, someone wants to block it.

Fuling is a well-deserved city. It guards the north and south and forms a junction with Ba County. It is the last barrier for Shu to resist the powerful army in the east.

It is also the hardest barrier.

Zhang Ren and Liu Xi led 30,000 elite troops to take charge of this city. Kou Feng had basically entered the territory of Fuling, so naturally a spy reported the news to Zhang Ren.

At this moment, the prefect's mansion in Fuling City is in the hall.

Zhang Ren, Liu Xun, Ling Bao, Deng Xian and others sat together. Among them, Zhang Ren made some contributions when he fought against Zhang Lu in the north.

Therefore, Tian is the head coach and sits in the upper head position.

After listening to the spy's report, Kou Feng had entered the Fuling territory, the atmosphere in the hall couldn't help but become solemn.

"The king is kind and kind, so Shu is the peace. These traitors are really hateful." Liu Xi couldn't help but curse.

Liu Xun was about fifty years old and was tall and burly, with a very general spirit. He was a powerful general left by Liu Yan, had some prestige in Yizhou and was also very loyal.

The rioters and traitors mentioned in the words were also those who surrendered when Kou Feng advanced westward.

Since receiving the news that Kou Feng attacked Kui Pass, Liu Xun began to reorganize his troops, widen the city and raise the city.

But the time was too short. The generals in front surrendered one after another, disrupting Liu Xu's deployment. Now the defensive power is still a bit lacking.

Zhang Ren sighed when he heard this. It was precisely because Liu Zhang was too kind that he lacked law and discipline. To put it simply, it was not majestic enough.

Therefore, those generals fell in front of the Chu army's strength.

"It's not the time to talk about these things now. Let's think of ways to deal with Kou Feng." Ling Bao said from the side. Ling Bao is relatively young and is a general promoted by Liu Zhang.

At this moment, when Shu was in danger, it was still loyal to follow Liu Xu to fight against the Chu army.

"You're right." Zhang Ren nodded, then shouted loudly: "Get the map."

With Zhang Ren's order, the left and right guards walked in with the screen embroidered with the map and placed them in the center of the hall.

The screen is a topographic map of Fuling and Bajun.

Fuling is located south and Bajun is located north, with a major road that runs from east to west. It is forked near Fuling and heading to Fuling and Bajun respectively.

There is another road between Fuling and Bajun, which can be accessed. In addition, there are mountains and forests around it. It is impossible for the army to pass through.

According to the spies' information, Kou Feng is currently stationed near the bifurcation. Kou Feng, Fuling and Bajun just form a triangle shape.

Zhang Ren stood up, walked to the front of the screen, and pointed to the fork in Kou Feng's army. He said in a deep voice: "There are two ways in front of Kou Feng. One is to attack our Fuling first and then Ba County."

As he said that, a sneer appeared on Zhang Ren's face and said, "But if he leads his troops to attack us, the veteran General Yan Yan will not stand by and leads his troops to rescue him. On the contrary, if Kou Feng attacks Ba County, we can also go directly to Ba County, support Ba County, and even intercept Kou Feng's retreat. As long as we are cautious, Kou Feng will not work."

"We have 80,000 elite soldiers. As long as we defend the city, we are enough to resist the enemy's fence." Liu Xu obviously agreed with Zhang Ren's point of view very much. He nodded and said.

"And the Shu Road is difficult. Although the Kou Fengdao Army can drive straight in, the baggage they brought is different, especially the food. If it is raining, hehe. His 80,000 army will not last long." Deng Xian on the other side smiled a little sinister.

"What you said makes sense." Zhang Ren nodded, then said: "However, it is rumored that Kou Feng's army is extremely arrogant. He can attack Jiangling and Xiangyang overnight. At this moment, he has broken through countless passes and cities and arrived here. He must be very morale. Before defending, it is necessary to first slash the spirit of the Chu army. Therefore, if Kou Feng attacks Fuling first, I plan to ambush here."

As he said that, Zhang Ren stretched out his hand and pointed to a sign on the map.

"Jinyan Bridge?" Liu Xun's eyes lit up and he blurted out.

"Yes, this is the only way for Kou Feng to enter Fuling. We just need to do some tricks on the bridge first. After Kou Feng's army is over halfway, Da Qiao collapses. It is enough to give Kou Feng a head-on attack." Zhang Ren's eyes were a little cunning and decisive. He usually couldn't see it, and he only thought that Zhang Ren was just a brave general. But Zhang Ren could also ambush, and there were generals.

"If we can kill him one or two thousand, or even ten thousand, we will win this war. Kou Feng will be scared and dare not peek at Shu." Deng Xian and Ling Bao, next to him, nodded constantly.

They are all very excited.

Now Liu Zhang has defeated Zhang Lu and is full of momentum, with a strong aura of taking Hanzhong as the northern barrier of Yizhou. He is also known as the Hou of Chu, if he defeats Kou Feng again.

Then his reputation was greatly enhanced and he could stand tall in troubled times. He would be invincible.

This is the cause of kings and domineering.

And then, those who have made meritorious soldiers can also be awarded a title for a general and a title. This is a great pleasure in life.

Seeing that these powerful generals were shining with their eyes and were eager to make achievements, Zhang Ren finally breathed a sigh of relief. There were still some loyal ministers and brave generals in Yizhou.

Whoever dares to underestimate Yizhou and attack it will definitely pay the price of bleeding. This time, I will first use the enemy to establish my authority to shock the world.

Zhang Ren was also angry.

"How many Wei swords do we have at present?" Zhang Ren asked Ling Bao next to him and said.

In addition to the powerful generals in the army, Ling Bao also served as a military officer.

"Since the news that Kou Feng's army had attacked Kui Pass, the emperor ordered the rush to speed up the system. He mobilized the Wei swords held by General Yang Huai from the north to move south. Currently, there are 8,000 Wei swords in the Fuling army. And the veteran General Yan Yan of Ba County also has 10,000." Ling Bao replied.

"It's enough to fight with you." Zhang Ren said with satisfaction again after hearing this.

"According to rumors, Cao Cao's Wei sword actually prevented and controlled the Chu sword. Today, I will use this Chu sword to prevent and control it, so that Kou Feng is always powerful and let him suffer the consequences." Zhang Ren said at the end.

"No." The generals all agreed and then scattered.

Someone needs to command the ambush, mobilize troops, and fight against Jinyan Bridge. In addition, Kou Feng's movements must be closely monitored.

Manpower is needed everywhere.

……………………………………………………

In the east, the Chu army camp, now the Chu army camp has been fully constructed. In a short period of time, it has a foothold.

At this moment, in the central army's tent.

Kou Feng sat alone on the coach. He had just discussed a plan to defeat the enemy with Pang Tong, Ma Su, Deng Ai and others. But there was no way.

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan were both loyal and brave generals, and had a good geographical advantage. The situation was not good for them.

"Zhang Ren, Yan Yan."

Kou Feng touched his chin, feeling a little worried.

Historically, it was easy for Liu Bei to enter Shu. Because Liu Bei had already been led by Liu Zhang into the house and entered Shu, and was in Xiameng Pass in the north. Moreover, Liu Zhang also sent additional soldiers to Liu Bei, which was equivalent to cutting off his own power to help increase Liu Bei's troops.

On the other hand, when Liu Bei attacked, Liu Zhang's army was basically divided into two parts of the north and south. Part of it was placed in the north of Chengdu, Fu.

Resisting Liu Bei's attack from the north. Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, the two only brave generals in Yizhou, were also separated. Only Yan Yan was left in the east.

Therefore, Zhang Fei easily invaded Ba County and captured Yan Yan alive.

Now, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are like huddling together, basically crowding in one place. There are 80,000 elite soldiers here, forming the barrier in front of Kou Feng now.

If it is on the plain, both sides will make a move. Kou Feng is confident and only needs to be given a half-discount, and then a half-discount. 20,000 elite soldiers will use the military camp as a sharp knife.

The eighty thousand elite soldiers of these two people were settled. It was not that Kou Feng looked down on Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, but that he was confident in his own Chu sword and the Chu crossbow soldiers.

But the other party was huddled in the city.

Kou Feng continued to touch his chin, still thinking about what to do to defeat the enemy.

At this moment, a guard came in and came to Kou Feng and handed over two notes. "Your Majesty, there are two news from Xiangyang."

"Oh." Kou Feng put away his calculations when he heard this and took the note from the guard.

The guard naturally said goodbye and left.

Kou Feng opened the memorial, looked at it for a while, his face changed, and he sighed and said, "I am smart, but others are not stupid."

The news came from Gongsun Kang.

Originally, Kou Feng and Gongsun Kang basically had a deal for a while, whether it was leather or war horses. They could get some back.

However, the officials who went there this time only brought back some leather from Gongsun Kang. There was not a single war horse. According to Gongsun Yuan's words, there was currently a shortage of horses in the north.

But in Kou Feng's view, this was just an excuse.

Will there be a shortage of horses in Liaodong? Who believes it? Kou Feng saw through Gongsun Kang's thoughts at a glance.

Now that he entered Shu, he had the momentum to unify the south. With the barriers of mountains and rivers, he was already a situation where he could retreat and defend and advance. If he was not careful, Cao Cao could not stop his attack and collapsed on the whole line.

Then the Gongsun clan in Liaodong will suffer.

Therefore, Gongsun Kang began to curb his number of war horses and then curb his number of cavalry.

Kou Feng was smart and opened up sea routes to exchange for horses with food with Gongsun Kang. But now, Gongsun Kang can see the situation clearly and no longer trade with Kou Feng.

This is you're smart and you're not stupid either.

Originally, Kou Feng planned to increase Zhao Yun's cavalry after entering Shu. After all, he was fighting for power with Cao Wei, and there were still too few 30,000 cavalrymen. Now it's ruined.

"There is no banquet that will last forever." However, Kou Feng also watched such things too much, and quickly put away his discomfort and sighed.

The first comment is somewhat discouraging. In addition, Kou Feng's process of entering Shu has been slightly hindered. Kou Feng's mood is somewhat unpleasant.

But when Kou Feng read the second memorial, he was overjoyed.
