    Jiang You, Liu Qi looked at the brocade-clad guards in front of him with a gloomy expression, forcing himself to suppress the shock on his face.  "My subordinate's words are absolutely true. The goal of Yizhou is not to drive the lord out of Yizhou, but to take advantage of the lord's presence in Yizhou to invade Jingzhou on a large scale. This time, in addition to Liu Zhang's 200,000 troops  , and there are two groups of soldiers and horses. These two groups of soldiers and horses are Liu Zhang's real goals, and the commanders of these two groups of soldiers and horses are Yan Yan and Zhang Ren. " "What a Liu Zhang, I didn't expect him to be so secretive.  "Have you ever found out the person behind Liu Zhang?" Liu Qi chuckled a few times. He thought it would be easier to capture Yizhou, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to have such a method. However, Liu Qi was not surprised, but he was somewhat surprised.  However, at this time, he was even more convinced that the recent changes in Yizhou must be caused by Liu Zhang's advice.  "A few days ago, a person suddenly appeared next to Liu Zhang. He claimed that Zheng Du was appointed as a state official by Liu Zhang as soon as he appeared. Now he has a very high status under Liu Zhang. It should be this person." "Zheng Du?" Liu Qi frowned.  Then I remembered this person. Isn't this Zheng Du the person who captured Liu Bei alive for Liu Zhang?  This person actually worked for Liu Zhang so early and gained Liu Zhang's trust.  "Quickly tell Jingzhou this news. Jingzhou must be careful. If something unexpected happens, Pang Shiyuan will be in charge of Jingzhou's military affairs. There must be no loss." Liu Qi thought for a moment and said. It had been nearly ten days since the war started. Liu Zhang was going to sneak attack on Jingzhou.  , the army should have been dispatched long ago.  "No." After the Jinyi guards left, Huang Zhong stepped in. He first saluted Liu Qi and then said: "My lord, Gan Ning's army will be able to arrive here in the evening in a few days, and there will also be soldiers and horses from Hanzhong."  We are about to arrive here." "Let them go directly to Mianyang without rushing here, and let him lead the army to Mianyang." Liu Qi shook his head.  Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, then bowed in response. Although he didn't understand why Liu Qi was acting like this, it was clear from the look on Liu Qi's face that something big had happened.  Ignoring Huang Zhong's doubts, Liu Qi continued: "Pack up and rush to Mianyang in an hour." "No." Huang Zhong was shocked and hurriedly got up and went to prepare.  Before, Liu Qi would definitely have chosen to wait until the army was assembled before rushing to Mianyang for a decisive battle with Yizhou. But now that he knew that the 200,000 troops were not Liu Zhang's trump card, Liu Qi naturally could not delay here. Once Liu Zhang made a sneak attack  If Jingzhou succeeds, these 200,000 troops will inevitably swarm forward. By then, Yizhou's morale will be strong, and it will be difficult to resist.  What Liu Qi has to do is to fight Yizhou's troops and horses before Yizhou's sneak attack on Jingzhou. As long as Yizhou's troops and horses are defeated before, the troops and horses in Jingzhou's sneak attack will naturally be nothing to worry about.  However, there are no more than 100,000 soldiers and horses that can be gathered here. It is really difficult to defeat Yizhou's 200,000 soldiers and horses.  But even so, Liu Qi had to do this.  Liu Zhang was cowardly and incompetent before, and had no way to deal with Jingzhou's attack. At this time, Liu Zhang suddenly got help from Zheng Du, and it was impossible for Jingzhou to defend against such a big situation. At this time, Jingzhou had fallen into Zheng Du's plan, and the only way to get out of this situation was  Only then can Zheng Du's plot be broken.  An hour later, the army was assembled. Except for the three thousand soldiers and horses left behind, the rest followed Liu Qi and rushed to Mianyang.  At the same time, Liu Qi's orders were also conveyed to all directions.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­. On the official road dozens of miles away from Jiangyou, Gan Ning was leading tens of thousands of people under his command.  The troops and horses were galloping. At this time, Gan Ning had not only the 20,000 troops and horses he had when he attacked Wudu County, but also the 15,000 troops and horses that Huang Zhong had left behind.  Nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses marched along the official road, forming a long ribbon on the official road, which kept swinging.  Driving  The sound of horseshoe sounded, and the two soldiers in black costumes approached the army quickly.  In front of the army, Gan Ning noticed the two black soldiers as soon as they appeared. He just frowned and ignored them, allowing them to approach quickly.  After months of fierce fighting, Gan Ning became increasingly calm as a mountain.  "My lord has an order, General Gan can lead his subordinates to Mianyang." After the soldier in black finished speaking, he saluted Gan Ning and turned around and left quickly without waiting for Gan Ning's reply.  Gan Ning's expression changed, and then his eyes became full of fighting spirit, and he murmured: "A decisive battle?" Immediately, the army's marching speed suddenly increased, and when it was about to approach Jiangyou, it suddenly changed direction, which was the direction of Mianyang City.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ Zitong, followingWith the arrival of the Jiangzhou army, a depressing atmosphere permeated the entire Zitong. Whether it was the people in the city or the soldiers in the city, there was an unspeakable feeling of depression.  Yizhou's troops who came to attack Zitong this time actually numbered 50,000, while Jingzhou's troops and horses in the entire Zitong City only had 10,000. But even so, Zhuge Liang still handled affairs as usual every day, seemingly not paying attention.  The arrival of Yizhou soldiers and horses.  Drive, drive, drive Two soldiers dressed in black rode into the city on fast horses, and came to Zhuge Liang unimpeded: "My lord has an order, the military advisor will quickly lead his army to Mianyang." Zhuge Liang.  He was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise: "But what big thing happened?" One of the soldiers in black was slightly startled, with a look of respect in his eyes: "My lord, Liu Zhang has sent his generals Yan Yan and Zhang Ren to sneak attack Jingzhou."  As he spoke, he handed a bamboo slip in his hand to Zhuge Liang. This was the news that the Jinyi guards had recently found out in Yizhou.  "That's it." Zhuge Liang was stunned after taking a look at the bamboo slips, and then nodded and said: "Report to my lord, it means that the army will definitely arrive at Mianyang by this time tomorrow." "Promise." The soldier in black bowed and saluted, turned and left.  The rapid sound of war drums sounded, and all the soldiers in Zitong City put down what they were doing and gathered towards the school field.  In just a moment, these soldiers dispersed. Half an hour later, all the soldiers in Zitong City gathered together, leaving 3,000 people to guard Zitong County. Zhuge Liang led 10,000 soldiers and horses out of the city to meet the Yizhou army.  OK.  Twenty miles outside Zitong City, 50,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses were stationed here. Originally, according to Lei Tong's plan, he ordered an attack as soon as he arrived outside Zitong City, but he was persuaded by the casual Li Yan to stop.  Although Lei Tong didn't have a good impression of Li Yan, even he had to treat Li Yan with caution as he was appointed by Liu Zhang to oversee the army.  "General Li, there are 10,000 Jingzhou troops in Zitong City, and there are no generals to guard it. Attacking the city directly is the best option. Why should we station here in vain to give Jingzhou a chance to breathe?" In the big tent,  Lei Tong looked at Li Yan with a gloomy look, and even his voice was slightly cold. In just a few months after arriving in Yizhou, Li Yan was promoted from a commoner to the position of military supervisor, just like Zheng Du.  The celebrity around Liu Zhang.  Lei Tong was somewhat unhappy with Zheng Du and Li Yan. Whether it was because they were in a relationship of mutual contempt between civil servants and military generals, or he was jealous of Zheng Du and Li Yan being favored by Liu Zhang.  Li Yan didn't have the slightest favorable impression of him, so the two of them had no social interaction except discussing military affairs along the way.  "The person guarding this place is Zhuge Liang, a famous scholar from Jingzhou. He is extremely talented in the Jingxiang area, and his strategic and military skills are extraordinary. The last time Jiangdong mobilized all the troops from Jiangdong to attack Jingzhou, it was because of this talent that he stayed in Jiangxia and led to Jiangdong's defeat.  Let's go back. Although we have a lot of troops this time, we have to be cautious." Li Yan said, seeing the impatience on Lei Tong's face, and smiled bitterly in his heart.  "We are waiting for an army of 50,000 to attack Zitong. If it had been anyone else, they would have been heavily guarded. However, Zitong acted as if he did not know that we were coming. He neither sent out a large number of scouts to investigate nor prepared his troops for war.  "Isn't the general surprised?" "Huh, this is just Zhuge Liang's suspicion. Being so worried will only miss the opportunity. I think Zhuge Liang did this because of his guilty conscience. The purpose is to prevent us from attacking Zitong.  ." Lei Tong snorted, dismissing Li Yan's explanation.  Li Yan gave a bitter smile, and when he was about to say something, he frowned and looked outside the tent. Lei Tong on the side also raised his head and looked at the door of the tent.  ¡°Deng, Deng, Deng¡± There was a sound of footsteps, and a scout walked in quickly.  "I'm reporting to the two generals that the army in Zitong City has moved. The army in the city came out of the city and rushed here." "What?" Li Yan and Lei Tong both shouted softly.  Li Yan had a look of astonishment on his face and couldn't figure out what Zhuge Liang was going to do, while Lei Tong on the side had a confused look in his eyes, as if he wasn't sure whether Zhuge Liang was coming for them. Hearing what Li Yan just said, he couldn't help but feel shocked.  , does Zhuge Liang really have a way to deal with himself?  "Come here, beat the drums and go out to fight." Lei Tong made up his mind with a look in his eyes.  "Wait a minute." Li Yan said in a deep voice: "Now that Jingzhou's intention is undecided, sending troops hastily will only lead to loss of troops. I think it is better to wait and see what happens." "Huh, since he doesn't know the intention, it is his intention to go to Jingzhou.  "According to what General Li said, we can only guard the gate of the village at this time. How can we know Jingzhou's intentions if we are so passive?" Lei Tong said with a gloomy expression, not showing any concern in front of the scouts.Give Li Yan face.  Seeing the tit-for-tat confrontation between Li Yan and Lei Tong, the scout smiled bitterly in his heart. At this time, he also knew that he should obey the orders. No matter who he obeyed, it was extremely disadvantageous for him, so he could only bow and remain silent.  .  "Even if it is just to send a pair of soldiers and horses to test, why is there such a big fanfare? Since Zhuge Liang dares to lead troops here, he must have a certain degree of confidence. Doesn't the general's recklessness fall into his plan?" Li Yan looked as usual.  , but the voice became colder and colder, and he was no longer as polite to Thunder Copper as before.  Hearing the sarcasm in Li Yan's words, Lei Tong was furious. This Li Yan, a mere scholar, dared to speak to him like this. He immediately became angry and glared at Li Yan with his bell-like eyes, a cold light in his eyes.  Shooting out in all directions, faintly carrying murderous intent.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ I just came back from a dinner party, there will be another chapter later, thank you sukang fang for your monthly pass.
