Han Dao world

Tian Feng took a picture of the case and was furious. "Why is this? Is there anything I, Jizhou, owes the court? The court has always failed me, Jizhou. Jizhou has endured and endured, but ended up like this."

Gao Lan frowned and said nothing.

Although he didn't speak, he sympathized with Tian Feng's anger.

It was the imperial court that failed Jizhou, not Jizhou that failed the imperial court.

Among them, the ones who have gone too far are the people from the Central Plains.

"It's just tied up, it's just for the knife and I for the fish." Tian Feng let out a breath and gradually regained his composure. "If you want to be respected by others, you must let him know that I, Jizhou people, cannot be bullied."

Tian Feng paused, and said again: "Just like Liangzhou people."

Gao Lan frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He understood what Tian Feng meant.

This method is dangerous and difficult, but there are successful precedents.

From Liangzhou.

I have to say that Tian Feng is Tian Feng.Even at this time, he did not give up hope easily, but still fought hard to win in danger.

This is their only chance.

"What you said is very true, and I would like to listen to what you have to say." Gao Lan bowed his hands and saluted, sincerely convinced.

"The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the cold water knows the hero. Bo Zhan, don't miss this opportunity. The emperor wants to go on an expedition. Instead of disarming and returning to the fields, it is better to hurt them and let them know that I also have famous generals in Jizhou. Isn't Hebei Sitingzhu Celebrities from the Central Plains are just flaunting each other."

Gao Lan understood and bowed to worship.

-

Tian Feng stayed in the Gaolan Camp for two days, meeting with the generals, resolving their doubts and boosting their morale.

He repeatedly explained the current situation to Gao Lan and others, proving that although the emperor used troops in Jizhou, his biggest enemy was not the people of Jizhou, but the gentry of the Central Plains.

Jizhou is nothing more than a knife, and the emperor conquered Jizhou to kill people with a knife and deter the gentry in the Central Plains.

This is the reason why the emperor has not marched for a long time.

That being the case, the people of Jizhou cannot live up to the expectations of the emperor.Not only to fight, but also to show prestige, let the emperor know that the world's elite are not only secluded and cool, but Jizhou is not inferior.

Only by hurting the gentry in the Central Plains, making them bleed in Yecheng, and knowing that Jizhou people cannot be bullied, can they take the initiative to ask for peace, instead of using the corpses of Jizhou people as a way to advance.

At that time, even if the emperor blames the Jizhou people for not surrendering, they will not kill them all.

On the contrary, he will give Jizhou people a chance to make up for their mistakes.With the strength of Jizhou people, Jizhou can rise again in less than one or two generations.

Most of the soldiers in the army are illiterate, and less than ten of them have read books.In front of such well-spoken celebrities like Tian Feng, they didn't have much courage to question, so they quickly accepted Tian Feng's words, and the crowd was excited, vowing to fight to the death.

What's more, he wrote a blood letter to his wife and children who stayed in the city, expressing that he would use his blood to buy them a future that would not be let down.

When the news reached the judge's ears, the judge was overjoyed, and the worries that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time were swept away, and he regained his strength and prepared for war.

Zhang Xi also received the news very soon, and rushed to Gao Lan's camp in person. In addition to picking up Tian Feng to pass the camp, he also discussed with Gao Lan, hoping that when Zhang Fei came to attack, Gao Lan would provide reinforcements.

Gao Lan readily agreed, and asked Tian Feng to plan a way for them to fight.

Tian Feng readily agreed.

He said to Zhang He and Gao Lan: "It's not difficult to defeat Zhang Fei, but it can't solve the fundamental problem. It's better to cut off one finger if you hurt his ten fingers. It's better to kill Chen Deng than to defeat Zhang Fei. Last time I failed to cut the grass and roots, leaving Hidden dangers have been eliminated. We cannot make this mistake again this time.”

Chapter 896

Zhang Fei held the rein and looked at the ranger on the other side, frowning with thick eyebrows.

Everywhere he went, Rangers would appear opposite him.It can be seen that Zhang Yun is very defensive and does not intend to give him any chance to take advantage of it.

This made him very helpless.

With the big river ahead, how to cross it safely became a problem he had to solve.

Of course he can wait.When Youyan Duhufu and the Northern Army besieged the city, Zhang He must retreat to Yecheng, and then he could cross the river calmly.It's just that in that way, his idea of ​​revenge will be defeated, and when facing Guan Yu in the future, he will inevitably be ridiculed by Guan Yu.

Liu Bei was laughed at by Guan Yu when he entered Beijing to participate in the parade. At that time, Guan Yu had not yet become one of the eight schools of the Northern Army.

Thinking of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei felt a little complicated.

He has always respected Guan Yu and treated Guan Yu like an elder brother, but Guan Yu did not treat him as a brother.After much deliberation, he felt that there was only one reason: he was too weak, and Guan Yu looked down on him.

To win Guan Yu's respect, there is only one way, strength.

Just like Xu Huang.

"General, if you want to cross the river, I'm afraid you need the help of the Wutang Hall." Mi Fang came over, pointed to Huang Yi and others in the distance, and reminded.

"How can they help?" Zhang Fei was a little anxious and his voice was a little loud.

Huang Yi brought dozens of students from the martial arts hall to practice.Most of these people are soldiers with certain military experience. After relevant training, they are indeed much better than ordinary generals.But Zhang Fei didn't think they could solve the problem of crossing the river that he couldn't solve, nor did he think that they were better than him.

"If the technicians in the martial arts hall can quickly erect the pontoon bridge, let us cross the river as quickly as possible, without giving Zhang He a chance to attack halfway through, wouldn't that be all right?"

Zhang Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt that there was some truth.

He and Zhang Yun are equal in strength, and he even has some advantages in fighting after the battle.The biggest trouble was the Zhangshui in front of him. He was most afraid of being hit halfway by his opponent, and what he had been thinking about was how to cross the Zhangshui without alarming Zhang Yun.

If the technicians in the martial arts hall can quickly erect the pontoon bridge, allowing him to send enough soldiers to the opposite bank to stand up before Zhang He reacts, then there is no need to consider hiding from Zhang He.

At most, it is to set up more suspicious soldiers, so that Zhang Yun can't figure out the exact place where he crossed the river.

"Ask him to come."

With permission, Mi Fang went over in person and invited Huang Yi over.After hearing Zhang Fei's thoughts, Huang Yi pondered for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.

"General, with all due respect, now is not the best time to attack."

Upon hearing Huang Yi's words, Zhang Fei's face darkened, and his tone became stiff. "Why?"

Huang Yi raised his hand and pointed his whip at both sides of the river. "It's Shengxia right now. The weather is hot. Soldiers are prone to heatstroke when they wear armor to fight. The general knows this, so I won't say more. Zhangshui is the main stream of Jizhou, and the water is extremely strong. It's the rainy season. Once it rains, The water level will skyrocket, and at that time, within a hundred steps of both sides of the bank, there is a possibility that it will be covered by the water."

When Zhang Fei heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

If he lined up with his back to the water, he would not be too far from the river.If the Zhangshui rises so much, it is indeed possible to impact the formation.

"It's just a rain, how can the water rise so much?" Zhang Fei was skeptical.

"I've asked many local people, and it's undeniable." Huang Yi said.

He didn't mention his experience in flood control in Luoyang, for fear of provoking Zhang Fei.In fact, flood control made him realize the power of water, which is more useful than reading military books.

Standing on the turbulent embankment of the river, watching the turbid river rushing away, I naturally understand the meaning of the words "shuihuoruqing".Good use of water and fire can achieve the effect of defeating the strong with the weak and defeating the many with the few.

As a general who has led the army for many years, Zhang Fei should understand this, and he doesn't need to remind him.

He only needs to inform Zhang Fei of the unique flood situation in Zhangshui.

"If you build a bridge, what kind of bridge can you build, and how long will it take to transport 2000 people to stand up?"

Seeing that Zhang Fei avoided talking about his question and insisted on crossing the river, Huang Yi secretly sighed.

"If the general needs it, we can build a raft first, then push it into the river to form a pontoon bridge, transport two to three thousand infantry within half an hour, and establish a position on the opposite bank. It is difficult for cavalry, and it takes a certain amount of time for the horses to walk on the pontoon bridge. Of course, the biggest difficulty is choosing the timing, if it rains suddenly, the river widens and the pontoon bridge is not wide enough, it is not easy to cross the river, but it is even more troublesome to retreat after crossing the river.”

Zhang Fei nodded and thought for a moment. "I will proceed with caution, please ask Huang Changshi to prepare the pontoon for me."

Huang Yi turned to look at Mi Fang.

Mi Fang also cupped her hands and said, "It's safe to be prepared, I'm going to trouble Chang Shi."

Huang Yi had no choice but to agree, and ordered the technicians to prepare to instruct Zhang Fei's craftsmen to make the pontoon bridge.While discussing tactics with the students in the martial arts hall, he sent people back to Liu Bei's army to find Zhuge Jin and report the relevant situation, hoping that Zhuge Jin could come forward and let Liu Bei stop Zhang Fei.

In his view, now is definitely not a good time to take the initiative.

-

After hesitating for a long time, Zhuge Jin walked into Liu Bei's Chinese army tent.

Liu Bei and Fazheng enjoyed the singing and dancing while drinking.Seeing Zhuge Jin coming in, he smiled and waved. "Ziyu, you came just in time, take your seat quickly, and have a taste of the delicious wine that just arrived."

Zhuge Jin took his seat, drank two glasses of wine, exchanged some pleasantries, and then told the news he had just received.After Liu Bei listened, he laughed, turned his head and said to Fazheng:

"Yide is so eager to make contributions that he can't hold back anymore."

Fazheng raised his wine glass and nodded. "The method is a good one, but it's a bit dangerous, and it needs to be considered in the long run."

When Zhuge Jin heard this, she became a little anxious.Huang Yi was extremely pessimistic about this battle, so he risked Zhang Fei's displeasure by asking him to inform Liu Bei.But listening to Fazheng's meaning, it seems that he doesn't intend to stop Zhang Fei, and wants to fight.

"Emissary, military advisor..."

"Ziyu, don't be nervous." Liu Bei laughed. "Youyan Duhu attacked Hejian, and Beihai attacked Bohai. The clansmen of Zhang He and Gao Lan were either captured or surrendered. They had no fighting spirit for a long time. The army is about to encircle Yecheng, and there is nothing wrong with us taking the first step. Really wait for the weather It's getting colder, and several armies are advancing side by side, so where is the chance for us to make meritorious deeds?"

Zhuge Jin reminded: "Although this is the case, Zhang He is good at fighting and will not surrender easily..."

Liu Bei interrupted Zhuge Jin. "Do you know Xing Ziang?"

"I've heard that Xing Ziang is a man of virtue and is a famous scholar in Hejian."

"That's right, he originally went to see him, and wanted to dissuade Du Tian, ​​but now he has changed his attitude and is going to become an official." Liu Bei chuckled. "Before Xing Ziang went to Xingzai, he had been to Zhang He's camp. Before him, there was a man named Bei Zhan who had a better relationship with Zhang He. Now he is making sacrificial wine in Yinfang, Jizhou. Although Yecheng is not yet under control, the people of Jizhou are still alive." He has already surrendered to the imperial court, how can Zhang Yun be an exception. At this time, he is fighting our army desperately, he is afraid that he is sick."

Zhuge Jin frowned and looked at Fazheng.

He felt that Liu Bei was too optimistic, and hoped that Fazheng could persuade Liu Bei.

In the entire big camp right now, the one Liu Bei trusts the most is Fazheng.Fazheng is also a military advisor sent by the emperor, so he must not be so frivolous.

Fazheng smiled. "Ziyu don't need to worry, Shijun won't let General Zhang face Zhang Xi alone. By the way, how is Chen Yuanlong resting, can he go into battle?"

"I'm afraid there are still some problems."

"Then let him guard the rear camp." Fazheng said: "The envoy will go into battle in person, defeat Zhang He, and avenge his shame."

Chapter 897 Add fuel to the fire

Zhuge Jin not only failed to persuade Liu Bei, but also failed to persuade Chen Deng.

As soon as he heard that Liu Bei was going to personally lead the main force to reinforce Zhang Fei and fight Zhang He in a decisive battle, Chen Deng was impatient and refused immediately.

With such a good opportunity, how could Zhang Fei be able to do his best alone.

Zhang Fei wanted revenge, and he wanted revenge too.

After being humiliated by Yuan Shu, he also paid attention to the training of the armies, and had some exchanges with Huang Yi, realizing that although Yuan Shu was shameless, he did not tell lies.

His subordinates are indeed weaker among the armies, not only cannot be compared with the imperial army, even Liu Bei's central army is slightly better than him.

Once the army encircles Yecheng, he will inevitably become a spectator, and his chances of making meritorious service are very limited.

Chen Deng immediately rushed to the Chinese army and asked Liu Bei for orders.

Although his subordinates lost a lot, they didn't hurt the root.As the main force, it may be difficult to directly attack Zhang He, but it is no problem to support Zhang Fei, provide Zhang Fei with flank protection, or act as a suspect to disperse Zhang He's forces.

Liu Bei hesitated at first, but at Chen Deng's insistence, he agreed.

When Chen Deng went out excitedly, Fazheng came out from the inner tent and smiled slightly.

Liu Bei smacked his lips. "Xiaozhi, isn't it wrong to do this?"

Fazheng took his seat and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Chen Yuanlong is a hero with a bright future, but he considers himself a scholar-bureaucrat and refuses to serve as a servant. If he is the prefect of a county, it's no problem, he can rule by lying down. If you can't share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, how can you gain the strength of the soldiers?"

Liu Bei stroked his chin and nodded.

When he was in Luoyang, he had many exchanges with Guan Yu, and Guan Yu emphasized this point.

The foundation of the emperor's military training method is to cherish soldiers.Not only caring about life, but also respecting spiritually.Only by treating the soldiers as confidantes, cherishing them, valuing their accumulated experience in battle, and refining them, can we be united and invincible.

If you act like you love soldiers just to make use of them, but don't respect them in your heart, and don't take their advice seriously, you won't be able to realize your soldiers' true potential.

Chen Deng came from a family, and in this regard, he did not do enough.High and low are like a chasm.He can cherish the soldiers and let them have no worries about food and clothing, but it is difficult to respect them psychologically and regard them as soldiers like himself.

Chen Deng does not agree with the view that all people are scholars.Even if you recognize it, it's just lip service, without really taking it into your heart, and it's even more impossible to implement it in action.

Even Zhang Fei, who has a hot temper and often whips his soldiers, is better than him.

It might be a good thing if he could take this opportunity to see the shortcomings in the training methods and make corrections.

He didn't want Chen Deng to bring this kind of habit of the children of the aristocratic family to overseas expeditions.

In order to prevent accidents, Liu Bei discussed with Fazheng, and the Chinese army moved forward, ready to rush to help Zhang Fei and Chen Deng, especially the latter.

Zhang Yun's most lethal force is the cavalry, but Chen Deng does not have many cavalry.To make up for this shortcoming, only Liu Bei will go out in person.

-

After receiving Zhuge Jin's reply, Huang Yi was very upset when he learned that not only did Liu Bei not intend to stop Zhang Fei, but the whole army was pressing forward, ready to face Zhang He in a decisive battle.
