One kick to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 314
On the second day after Qin Yi arrived in Gaodu County, Cao Ren and Dian Wei led three thousand troops from Yanzhou to Gaodu County as scheduled.

Of the three thousand soldiers and horses, there are eight hundred cavalry and two thousand two thousand infantry.There is a shortage of cavalry in Yanzhou, and Cao Cao was able to dispatch [-] cavalry to support Qin Yi, which shows Cao Cao's deep friendship with Qin Yi.

On that day, Sima Su ordered people to kill pigs and sheep to reward Yanzhou soldiers and horses.This made both Cao Ren and Dian Wei very satisfied.

Yanzhou soldiers and horses set up a simple camp outside Gaodu County to rest for one night, and the next day they pulled out their camp and entered Tianjingguan.

In order to avoid ordering out many doors, Qin Yi deliberately transferred the Gaodu County soldiers who had been stationed at Tianjing Pass back to Gaodu County, leaving only one military marquis as an advisor to instruct Yanzhou soldiers to guard the pass.

As mentioned earlier, Tianjing Pass is not an independent pass. To the south of Tianjing Pass, there are three subsidiary passes belonging to Gaodu County.The distance between Tianjing Pass and its three subsidiary passes is very close. The four passes are arranged within a distance of more than ten miles, and there is a pass every three miles on average.

After discussing with Cao Ren, Qin Yi and Cao Ren divided the 3000 troops in Yanzhou into four and stationed in four passes including Tianjing Pass.

Among them, 500 soldiers were stationed at Xiaokou Pass at the southernmost point, guarded by Dianwei, and 100 soldiers were stationed at Xingzhen Post and Hengwang Pass in the middle.As Cao Ren's flag pass, Tianjing Pass has [-] troops stationed there.The remaining [-] people are for the scout team, responsible for forward exploration, communication and other work.

Although the troops were stationed at the four passes, the distance between these four passes was too close. As long as the southernmost small pass was attacked, the rest of the passes could send troops to help in a short time.

If the first three passes are breached, all the Yanzhou soldiers will withdraw to the main pass of Tianjing Pass. Relying on the terrain and its tall pass wall, it can also stop the attack of tens of thousands of troops.

Furthermore, the chances of Niu Fu choosing this route are extremely slim, so Qin Yi is very relieved about the Tianjingguan.

After staying at Tianjing Pass for one day, Qin Yi bid farewell to Cao Ren on the second day, and he was going to Xiangling County.

Cao Ren sent out Qin Yi, Xi Zhicai and others in person.At the time of parting, Qin Yi said to Cao Ren: "Brother Zixiao, although you are a guest army, you should be in charge of all the military affairs at Tianjing Pass. If Sima Su interferes with your command, you can blame him .If this person is stubborn, you can send someone to Xiangling to inform Yu X. X will settle the score with him."

"Thank you for your trust." Cao Ren cupped his hands towards Qin Yi, "Don't worry, my lord. After seeing the danger of Tianjing Pass, I have enough confidence to stop Niu Fujun's attack. He doesn't want to go to Tianjing Pass. If he chooses to go this way The road must make it difficult for him to advance."

"I'll leave everything to Brother Zixiao!"

"Your Majesty, let's go!"

………………

After leaving Gaodu County, Qin Yi and the others rushed to Xiangling County in only two days.

Before Qin Yi came, Yang Feng had followed Qin Yi's suggestion to clear the walls of Xiangling County and evacuate the people.

In fact, even if Yang Feng did not issue an order to strengthen the walls and clear the country, the people would flee on their own to avoid the war.

In the troubled times, the common people have also learned to be smart. Although they can't get the information of Niu Fujun, there are nearly [-] more troops in Xiangling County, and the common people know that there will be another war here.So, I immediately packed up my things and helped the old and the young go out to seek refuge.

Xiangling County originally belonged to Hedong County. When Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Chang'an, he forced millions of people from the surrounding counties and counties of Luoyang to move westward with the imperial court. Ling County.

Because Xiangling County is located in the north of Hedong County and borders Bingzhou, not many people were moved by Dong Zhuo.Although Yang Feng was born as a rebel, he was also a very capable person. After he occupied Xiangling County, he made a list to appease the people, and arranged all the families of his soldiers to live in the county and its suburbs.Xiangling County has regained its vitality.

However, because of the need to resist Niu Fu, after the walls of Xiangling County were strengthened and the wilderness was cleared, it became a state of no one living for a hundred miles.The county town has also been turned into a large military camp.

Qin Yi's three thousand soldiers and horses were stationed in the south city, while Yang Feng's troops were stationed on the other three sides.The coalition commander's mansion is located within the county government.

After Qin Yi arrived in Xiangling County, he had a hasty welcome banquet and started a military discussion with everyone.The discussion this time is mainly to establish the command system and readjust the garrison positions of the various ministries.

In fact, these things should have been done a long time ago, but Qin Yi never came to Xiangling County, so he has been delayed until now.Fortunately, Niu Fu had just arrived in Luoyang, and Xiangling was still more than 400 miles away from Luoyang. Even if Niu Fu immediately turned north from Luoyang, he would have to walk at least ten days to reach Xiangling County.Qin Yi and the others still had plenty of time to prepare.

"Everyone, although Xiangling County is currently guarded by soldiers and horses from our Shangdang County and Xihe County, it is no better than others. Without a smooth command, our army will inevitably be chaotic, and there will be no way to talk about a big victory. Therefore, Qin It is suggested that we first agree on a coach who will be responsible for the overall command."

After everyone was seated, Qin Yi spoke up first.

"There's no need to discuss it, I'll let you be the coach." Yang Feng waved his hand and said carelessly.

Seeing that Yang Feng was the first to support him as the coach, Qin Yi was a little surprised.

"Yang Shuai... No, Mr. Fu, there are only 3000 soldiers in Shangdang County, but our army has 5000. Normally, you should be the commander." An officer in Yang Feng's army said immediately.

Qin Yi frowned slightly.The officer who spoke was Yang Sui, a nephew of Yang Feng's family, but he was about the same age as Yang Feng.

Yang Feng glared at Yang Sui, and said: "Who is the commander-in-chief is not determined by the number of troops sent, but by the ability to command and fight."

Then, Yang Feng looked at Qin Yi and said, "Brother Qin, although you are younger than Yang, Yang admits that your fighting skills are much better than Yang's. Not to mention that you broke out when you were attacking Dong Zhuo. Those great reputations include the few battles you experienced after you came to Bingzhou, winning the eldest son county, Huguan county, Yuanzhan county, and defeating the Black Mountain Army twice. Even Yang was once defeated by you. In just half a year , You have experienced three battles, and you won them all easily. You will command the battle, Yang can rest assured."

Jian Yang Feng was so supportive of Qin Yi that the others stopped talking.

"What do you guys think?" Qin Yi looked at Li Le.Today, Li Le is Yang Feng's prefect and military adviser, and is the number two figure in Xihe County.

Li Le smiled slightly: "Although I really want my lord to be the coach, but since the lord supports Qin Fujun as the coach so much, it is enough to show Qin Fujun's ability. I also support Qin Fujun as the coach."

Qin Yi thought in his heart: Li Le is still able to speak, he not only expressed his loyalty to Yang Feng, but also did not offend me, and took care of his business.

Qin Yi's subordinates will naturally support Qin Yi.On the other side of Shangdang County, the No. [-] person Yang Feng and the No. [-] person Li Le both spoke out in support of Qin Yi, and the rest of the officers could hardly object.Thus, Qin Yi was elected as the coach.

Afterwards, Yang Feng abdicated Qin Yi to the main seat, and he took the first seat on the side seat.

"Commander, please issue a military order and appoint the generals." After Yang Feng took his seat, he cupped his fist at Qin Yi.He is supporting Qin Yi with practical actions.

Qin Yi nodded, and then said: "Then Qin will not be hypocritical."

"Where is Yang Feng?" Qin Yi asked solemnly.

"A certain Yang Feng obeys orders!" Yang Feng stood up and clasped his fists at Qin Yi again.

"This Commander ordered you to be the Sima of the coalition army, to assist the Commander in all military affairs."

"promise!"

"Where is Li Le?"

"A certain Li Le obeys orders."

"This commander ordered you to be the commander of the coalition army, in charge of government affairs in the army, and responsible for logistics support and military staff."

"promise!"

"Where is the talent for acting?"

"A certain drama will take orders."

"This Commander ordered you to sacrifice wine for the military division, lead the military staff, issue information, and accept intelligence exchanges."

"promise!"

"The rest of the generals, according to their duties, command the troops of the headquarters."

"No!" The rest of the people stood up and clasped their fists at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi's appointment fully took care of Yang Fengjun's face.He is the commander-in-chief, number one; Yang Feng, named Sima, is the deputy to the head coach, and number two; Li Le is the chief history, number three; Xi Zhicai is number four.The four of them formed the command center of the coalition forces.

"Everyone, please sit down!" Qin Yi waved to the crowd, and they sat down.

Afterwards, Qin Yi asked Yang Feng: "Yang Sima, is the map that Qin suggested to you to make before, is it ready?"

Yang Feng nodded and said: "Someone has ordered someone to control it." Afterwards, he pointed behind Qin Yi: "The map has been hung on the wall behind the commander."

After finishing speaking, Yang Feng got up, walked behind Qin Yi, and opened a curtain hanging on the wall.

Qin Yi looked back, and sure enough, he saw a large map hanging on the wall.

The area drawn on the map is the southern part of Bingzhou bordering Hanoi County and Hedong County.It extends to Changzi County and Haoshi County in the north, and to the central part of Hanoi County and Hedong County in the south.

Although the map has been enlarged, it is still very rough.Fortunately, major towns are marked, as are some large mountains, rivers, and major roads.

Qin Yi stared at the map for a while, then said: "Everyone, let's talk about how our army should station troops."

As soon as Qin Yi finished speaking, Li Le stood up and said, "Marshal, before you came, I had already discussed this matter with my lord and General Zhao and Xu of your county. We believe that Xiangling County The surrounding terrain is flat, which is very suitable for large armies to fight, but this also causes Xiangling City to be surrounded by enemies. Therefore, all our troops cannot be stationed within Xiangling City."

"Then your opinion is..." Qin Yi looked at Li Le.

Li Le got up, walked to the front of the map, and said while pointing to the map: "Xiangling County is a basin, high from east to west and low in the middle. There is Sheyang Mountain on the east side of the county seat, and Aunt Mountain on the west side. Both are easy to defend and difficult to attack. And these two mountains look down on Xiangling City. Therefore, we thought that we could send a thousand cavalry on each of the two mountains to guard Xiangling City."

Qin Yi stared at the map for a while. Although he found the names of the two mountains that Li Le mentioned, the map was too rough to see the specific mountain and land area.

"What do you think?" Qin Yi turned around and looked at Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai said: "This is a very good plan. If we deploy cavalry on the east and west highlands, we can harass the enemy at any time and distract their energy."

"Then let's do it like this." Qin Yi nodded, and then asked Yang Feng: "Brother Yang, who should be sent to guard these two mountains?"

Yang Fengdao: "Someone thinks that Zhao Yun can be sent to guard Sheyang Mountain, and Yang Sui can be sent to guard Aunt Mountain."

"Zhao Yun and Yang Sui obey orders." Qin Yi ordered immediately.

"A certain Zhao Yun (Yang Sui) is here!"

"Order you two to take a thousand cavalry each, leave the city in five days, and station in Sheyang Mountain and Aunt Mountain respectively."

"promise!"

Afterwards, Qin Yi distributed the soldiers and horses stationed in the city.Xu Huang led 2000 men to garrison the southern city, while the remaining [-] troops of Yang Feng's troops were stationed on the remaining three walls.
