Chapter 234 Wuzhangyuan Camp

It is now the end of April, but Guanzhong, which suffered a bloody blow last year, has become strangely quiet.

Sitting in Hanzhong Mansion, Pang Tong put down the military briefing in his hand and slipped into the courtyard to do a set of movements to stretch his body.

Knowing so many heroes who died of illness and sudden death from the light curtain, Pang Tong now cherishes his own life even more.

As for Luofengpo in Jingzhou, it seems that we are destined to be destined to have no separation in this life.

When Pang Tongyi finished a set of stretching movements, he realized that little Jiang Wei had been watching from the side.

And still imitating swayingly, Pang Tong laughed and squatted down to explain the essentials of the movements one by one.

"Master, what is this?"

"It's called Wuqinxi, and it's said to have the effect of prolonging life."

"Isn't that a magical skill? Master, can you teach me Aweng?"

Pang Tong smiled and said: "Why not? The great sage who created this set of exercises said that he hopes everyone can learn it."

As he spoke, he lowered his left hand and asked Jiang Wei to bend his left leg and extend his right leg. After lowering his center of gravity, his breath sank to his Dantian, and he motioned his hands to slowly press down with claws, in the shape of a tiger.

Xiao Jiang Wei was very curious:

"Then where is this great sage now? Aweng has learned to accept kindness from others, and as a son of man, he should repay the kindness."

Pang Tong hesitated for a few seconds and said vaguely:

"The great sage is a man among gods and immortals. He travels on a crane and has no trace of his whereabouts."

Not looking at the longing and curiosity on Xiao Jiang Wei's face, Pang Tong sighed quietly in his heart.

After being reminded of the usefulness of medicine by the light curtain, Kong Ming has been sending people to inquire about the whereabouts of another good doctor:

The miracle doctor who cured Chen Yuanlong, Hua Yuanhua.

But it was a pity that because he was unwilling to serve Cao's thieves, he was imprisoned for deceiving the emperor and failing to conquer, and was tortured to death.

After Hua Yuanhua died unjustly, his disciples Wu Pu, Fan A, Li Dang and others fled to Jiangdong, and were later recruited to Jingzhou by Kong Ming.

The news of Hua Yuanhua's death was dictated by these disciples. They also brought some medical works left by their master, and Wu Qin Xi was one of them.

Kong Ming lamented for a long time, and so did Pang Tong.

After touching little Jiang Wei's head and putting all his worries aside, Pang Tong knelt down and continued to teach Wu Qin Xi step by step.

A child's attention changes very quickly. After fantasizing about which one looks better, riding a crane or riding a wild goose, little Jiang Wei remembered another thing:

"Master, I saw the red-faced general leading the army north yesterday. Is there going to be another war?"

Pang Tong said without raising his head:

"Don't call him that in person, remember to call him General Wei."

After seeing little Jiang Wei nod in agreement, Pang Tong continued leisurely:

"General Huo has led his troops to build defenses first. General Wei is here to support us."

"But the two generals went out to avoid war."

Isn’t the purpose of going to the army just to fight? How can we not fight? Little Jiang Wei didn't understand.

Xiao Jiang Wei didn't understand, but Wei Yan saw it very clearly.

After leading the elite troops out of the Baoxian Road, they suddenly saw the Guanzhong Plain and felt suddenly enlightened.

What is particularly eye-catching is a camp rising from the ground on the Wuzhang Plain on the left.

Upon hearing Wei Yan's arrival, Huo Jun came out of the camp to greet him.

After meeting, before Huo Jun could say anything, Wei Yan said politely:

"I have long heard that Zhongmiao is a good defender. Now I see that the camp is lush and the soldiers are in order. It is true that it is well-deserved."

Huo Jun said politely:

"Wuzhang is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It can advance and retreat freely. However, it is nothing more than a thief's plan. How dare you call it a name?"

"A fortified stronghold also needs elite soldiers to guard it. When the chief comes, I have nothing to worry about."

The two exchanged a few words and then moved into the Chinese military tent. Wei Yan said seriously:

"We are leading four thousand soldiers on this trip, and I am also listening to Zhong Miao's move."

Huo Jun immediately felt the great responsibility.

Due to his contribution to Yizhou and his contribution to bypassing Yangping Pass, Huo Jun is now awarded the title of General Pi.

After Cheng Gongying visited Hanzhong, Pang Tong briefly discussed with Fazheng and ordered Huo Jun to take Baoxie Road, give full play to his strengths, and build barriers at the entrance of Baoxie Road.

After all, if Xia Houyuan secretly united with Han Sui, they would attack Longyou and attack Ma Chao.

After Hanzhong heard the news, it was obviously too late to send troops again. This move was also intended to coordinate Ma Chao and divide the battlefield.

After all, what Pang Tong needs is for Ma Chao to be beaten half to death, but not to death accidentally.

But now that the new grain has not been harvested, Huo Jun's 3,000 soldiers, plus Wei Yan's 4,000 soldiers, are already the limit of Hanzhong's support.

As for Guan Ping, who came from Jingzhou to help, and Zhang Fei, who was about to turn back, Pang Tong had other uses.

"Now it has been confirmed that Xiahou Dun in Chang'an will have about 40,000 soldiers, numbered 50,000."

Huo Jun was cheerful, Wei Yan's support greatly relieved his pressure:

"There are about five thousand troops stationed in Yi County out of Chang'an, which is not enough to worry about."

Wei Yan suddenly remembered what he saw in the light curtain. More than twenty years later, Prime Minister Zhuge led his troops here to confront Sima Yi across the martial arts river.

Unable to fight, he finally lamented how weak the sky was.

So Wei Yan stood up almost immediately and suggested:

"Shall I bring in new troops and take advantage of their unpreparedness to attack Xi County and defeat the enemy?"

Huo Jun immediately shook his head:

"No!"

"Between offense and defense, we only rely on food and grass."

"Now that Guanzhong is in ruins, Xiahou Yuan's 40,000 soldiers have to leave Hebei to eat their horses and chew them."

"Grain and grass are transported a long way by water. If there are only two or three out of ten, it will not be long. Cao's army must be eager to fight."

"Wen Chang defeats the enemy, but cuts his mouth to eat food and grass. Although it is effective, it is useless for attack and defense."

Watching Huo Jun talk eloquently, Wei Yan also sighed at the wonder of fate. The two sides who wanted to fight and refused to fight were actually reversed.

"If Xia Houyuan is impatient and the whole army attacks..."

Then Wei Yan answered himself:

"We are only 7,000 people. If we lead the troops to retreat into Baoxiadao, we will not be afraid even if we face an army of 100,000."

After all, Baoxiadao is only so wide. Even if you have 200,000 troops, they will be useless if you can't deploy them.

Huo Jun nodded:

"In Jingzhou, Zhuge Military Advisor pretended to be a sage and told us about guerrilla warfare.

"Now, when the enemy advances, we retreat. When the enemy stays, we harass, and wait for the enemy to collapse."

And as expected by the two, even though the garrison in Mei County had seen that Wuzhangyuan had reinforcements, they still shouted and knocked on the door the next day to ask for a fight.

Standing on the watchtower in the camp, Wei Yan squinted his eyes and looked at the shouting enemy general in front of the battle, turned his head and asked:

"Zhong Miao, do you know who is the commander of Mei County?"

Huo Jun frowned and thought for a while, and finally affirmed:

"It should be Xu Huang, Xu Gongming. "

Wei Yan immediately thought of the flooding of the seven armies in the light curtain. It was this person who lured General Guan to reminisce about the past in front of the battle line, and then attacked him at the critical moment.

Therefore, the killing intention suddenly rose in his heart, but was immediately suppressed by the thought of putting the overall situation first, and said regretfully:

"Let's save this beast's life first. "

But the killing intention had already arisen, so Wei Yan said a few words to Huo Jun and went down the lookout.

Huo Jun, who stayed on the lookout, could see clearly that Wei Wenchang would ride out on his horse as long as the main gate of the camp was opened a little.

The enemy general who was cursing had no time to turn his horse and flee at this time, and was knocked off his horse cleanly by a spear.

Then Wei Yan led his horse back calmly, and the morale of the Wuzhangyuan camp was boosted.

After the Cao army was in chaos for a while, someone shouted and led the troops to approach.

But to the disappointment of the Cao army generals, the red-faced young general closed the door again after entering the camp and never opened it again.

So the Cao army could only retreat unwillingly after cursing for a while.

"Wenchang is brave!" Huo Jun congratulated.

Wei Yan said modestly: "It saves food and grass for the Cao army. "

Then Wei Yan looked far to the southeast, wondering how General Guan was doing now?

...

After Liu Bei came to Chengdu, the scale of Chengdu has been slowly expanding.

On the one hand, it was because refugees kept coming to surrender.

Yizhou was isolated from the outside world, so Liu Bei's reputation was not known.

But the word of mouth of the people in Chengdu could not be false, and now Liu Bei's notice has been posted in various counties in Yizhou.

And the content is also very simple and plain: divide the land, teach the craftsmanship, and the government can build a new house for you on credit!

On the other hand, it is also the renovation of Chengdu. The roads are replanned, the inland rivers are dredged, and some poor families who live in Chengdu have moved to the surrounding areas. With the help of the superior named Sun Gan, they carefully calculated their financial resources and built houses to shelter from the wind and rain.

So the local people in Chengdu suddenly found that our Chengdu city seemed to be It has become much bigger.

The one who is quite satisfied among them is Li Gong of Zigui.

When they fled from the north to the south, the two sons had quite a lot of complaints. After settling down in Zigui, the two sons were thinking about getting a wife, and someone came to propose marriage to his young mother.

Unexpectedly, their father waved his cane and said: Go to Chengdu!

The big house in Zigui became a small house in Chengdu, and the respected Li Gong of Zigui was also downgraded to Li Laozhang.

Although the two sons did not dare to disobey their father's wishes, they still showed their dissatisfaction in their words.

Fortunately, before Li Laozhang could find a reason to teach him a lesson, the changes in Chengdu had already made the two sons obedient.

Just like this dinner, after drinking a small cup of wine and knocking on the pottery bowl with chopsticks, the little head of the family began to test his sons' daily performance.

"How is Dalang's sugar factory? ”

The elder son, who looked kind, quickly put down his bowl, put his hands together and said politely:

“The manager praised my diligence today and said that if I can make enough sugar this month, I will give him a lot of money.”

Li Laozhang nodded slightly. This elder son was not a troublesome person and was always diligent in his work.

When he was in Zigui, there were always matchmakers who wanted to be matchmakers, but he looked down on the vulgar children of Zigui.

Now that he has arrived in Chengdu, Dalang’s job is going well and it seems that he can finally find a good match.

When his eyes turned to the other side, Li Laozhang had a headache.

Before he could ask, the second son, with a black eye, couldn’t wait to say:

“Today, someone in the paper mill teased the widow Qian who made paper pulp. I couldn’t stand it, so I beat the idler.”

“The manager fined the idler two days’ money and told me that I must go to him first if I encounter this kind of thing again, but he still remembered my fifteen yuan reward. "

Mr. Li wanted to hit the rebellious son on the head with his cane:

If the wound medicine is included, these fifteen cents are not enough!

"Oh, right."

The second son of the Li family, whose eyes were rolling around, suddenly remembered another thing:

"The widow Qian asked me if I was married, and I said no."

"She said she would come to thank me in two days."

Mr. Li covered his face with his hands, and was already thinking about whether to find a new job for this son.

At this time, the little sister of the Li family, who was sitting at the end of the table, also raised her hand weakly:

"I... I took the test of the weaver today, and Jin Guan said I passed."

The little sister of the Li family said weakly:

"But Jin Guan said that I am still young, so I might as well go to the Little Imperial College for two years."

"What do you think, Dad?"

"Read!"

Mr. Li immediately threw the second son behind his mind, and said firmly:

"Don't think about the weaver, as long as the Little Imperial College doesn't drive us away, we will keep reading! "

Then Mr. Li even felt a little sorry that he had a child too early, otherwise he would have stuffed the eldest and second sons in together.
