Yangping Pass, in the middle of the city.

At the theater headquarters, in the lobby, Mu Jing was wearing a brocade robe, carrying his hands behind his back, standing in front of the huge sand table, with a pair of eyes like electricity, staring at every place on the sand table, this will become a battlefield.

"You still have to go to the battlefield in person to see it more clearly!" Mu Jing is a general who has been killed on the battlefield, and he is more familiar with the feeling on the battlefield.

"Lord, don't think about it, being able to enter Yangping Pass is already the limit, and no one can afford it, and you will personally go to the battlefield!"

Jiang Wan stood next to him and said admonishingly.

"I'll just nag, who said to go to war!"

Mu Jing pouted.

As the lord, his status is expensive, and for the Minghou Mansion, it involves the lives of countless people, and it is already the limit to be able to reach the command headquarters of the front line and participate in the battle in person, and it is impossible to go directly to the battlefield.

After all, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, even if it is as strong as Huang Zhong, he does not dare to say that he will definitely survive from the battlefield.

So he can only analyze the situation on the battlefield here.

"Lord, Jingwu Si sent a message, reporting that Chang'an City has closed the city gates, and the situation of the Xiliang Army is strange, some news in the city cannot be delivered, and I don't understand Xiliang's movements for the time being!" A Jingwusi spy walked in quickly and said.

"Let Jing Wuji continue to inquire!"

"No!"

The spy took the order and turned to leave.

The corners of Mu Jing's mouth raised a faint smile: "It seems that Chang'an is going to be chaotic, and the city gates are closed, which means that Xiliang can't control the situation a little, this is good, the more chaotic they are, the greater our chance!" ”

"Lord, even if Chang'an is in chaos, with the strength of Xiliang now, it should still be able to suppress it, I suspect that Xiliang should have other purposes, so the city gate will be closed!"

Huangfu Yin stood respectfully beside him and said with his hand.

He is a staff general of the theater command, and it is naturally normal for him to appear here.

"This is just the beginning, the Son of Heaven will not give up so easily, Chang'an must be chaotic, but to what extent, then look at the ability of the Son of Heaven, now there is only one person left in Chang'an Xiliang to preside over the overall situation, and there is still a chance to be anti-guest-oriented!"

Mu Jing smiled, not very concerned.

He has done what he should have done.

As the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Zhong has been killed, the news of the Son of Heaven at this time is closed, the more this is the case, the more impatient he will be, the greater Xi Liang's movements, the more uneasy he will be, and sooner or later he will fight back.

However, the most important thing for the pastoral army now is not to pay attention to the news of Chang'an, but to break through the defense of Guanzhong first.

Mu Jing pondered for a moment, and then asked Huangfu Yin, "Huangfu, now that Zhang Wenyuan has led his troops to attack Chencang for more than three days, do you think you can suppress Ma Teng's troops in Chencang?" ”

"Can't!"

Huangfu Yin pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Chen Cang, as the main road in Guanzhong, is easy to defend and difficult to attack, four hundred years ago, Gaozu Ming repaired the plank road to darken Chen Cang's battle deployment is too exciting, these hundreds of years, Chen Cang has become a target, and the defense has been strengthened many times!" ”

"If General Zhang Zhonglang wants to suppress Ma Teng's forces in Chencang, it will be a bit of a loss, and I suspect that Ma Teng doesn't even have too many troops in Chencang!"

"As for where Ma Teng's troops are, I don't have a clue!"

Huangfu Yin analyzed it carefully, and his eyes never left the sand table, for this kind of sand table made by the pastoral army, it was simply an intuitive control of the battlefield, much better than looking at the marching map, and he liked it very much.

"Then why do you say Zhang Liao is still attacking?" Mu Jing asked the emperor Fu Yin.

Even if Huangfu Yin is not as good as Huangfu Song, he is also a descendant of the Huangfu family, the son of Huangfu Gui back then, how much there are a few brushes, and the Huangfu family is a famous family of scholars who have been handed down from generation to generation in military affairs, and the children of the family, most of whom are proficient in military strategy.

"I don't know!" When Huangfu Yin heard this, he thought for a while, but shook his head and said: "I heard that Zhang Wenyuan is a general of the pastoral army, good at layout, and more proficient in on-the-spot play on the battlefield, the day I went north was too short, I never got along, I never understood, and in my feelings, this kind of person's mind is difficult to guess, especially their mind on the battlefield, imaginative, only he can't think of it, no one they can't do!" ”

"Just like Huangfu Song?" Mu Jing smiled.

Huangfu Song, as the number one fierce general today, is definitely the target of countless generals.

"There is only one Huangfu Song, it is difficult for outsiders to imitate!"

Huangfu Yin sighed and said: "His attainments in military strategy are the only one of my Huangfu clan for hundreds of years, if I put a little more thought, my Huangfu family really won't fall into such a situation, from the day he entered the tiger prison, he was destined to not live, and even put our Huangfu clan in, I don't know if he is smart or stupid!" ”

"The smarter you are, the more stupid you are!"

Mu Jingdao: "I just got a news, Huangfu Song has led his troops to break through from the Tiger Prison Pass, the direction is unknown, with your understanding of Huangfu Song, you will guess, where did Huangfu Song go?" ”

"Don't guess!"

Huangfu Yin sneered and said, "He will definitely return to Guanzhong!" ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because he has no way to go at all, he summoned the world's heroes to conquer Xiliang, earned enough fame, and achieved his life of being loyal to the Han Dynasty, but it also made the world unable to tolerate him, and if he didn't fight, he would die, so even if he died, he would die in Guanzhong!" Huangfuyin replied: "It's a pity that if you meet a son of heaven with extraordinary courage, you may be able to save her, but in the current situation, he is already dead!" ”

"You don't believe in the Son of Heaven!" Mu Jing agrees with Huangfu Yin's analysis, but anyone with a little ambition, even if they are also loyal to the Han family, can't tolerate Huangfu Song, because he has been sanctified, can only stay in history, can't survive, and is so supported by him, they are all a group of disobedient people, who can stand it.

"I used to think that this son of heaven dared to go against the power of the government and the opposition in such a bad situation as Luoyang, and pulled his brother off the horse and became the emperor, even if the means were a little ruthless, he should be a young hero, and he could be the monarch of the Zhongxing Han family, but I met him twice with Huangfu Song, and I felt ......"

Huangfu Yin said: "This person is too feminine, lacks integrity, wants to do great things, but he is extremely desperate, and it is difficult to become a great tool!" ”

At the beginning, he followed Huangfu Song and went to see the Son of Heaven twice, and his hope for the Son of Heaven had already collapsed.

"I once suggested that Yizhen should take control of Nanyang, if he is willing to listen to me, why is it a disaster today!"

Huangfu Yin shook his head: "He still believes in the Son of Heaven, perhaps, he still believes that the Han family has a future, such a smart person can never see this, he is destined to have no future!" ”

"Among the two sons of Emperor Ling, Liu Wei is capable, but he lacks the city government, in fact, I am still quite optimistic about Liu Xie!"

Mu Jing said lightly: "It's just a pity, he was not born to fate, if he violates the prosperous times, he should be the master of the success, but in the troubled times, it is difficult to make a difference, even if there are means, there are cities, there are scheming, tired of the Han Dynasty, it is difficult to have the courage to move forward, and it is destined to be unable to turn the tide!" ”

Unless there is a person from the Liu clan, it is possible to save the Han family and the country, and it will be possible to save the Han family, but unfortunately, Liu Xie is not such a person, no matter how much he calculates, there is a shortcoming after all.

He regarded the Han family as too important, perhaps he regarded this model of the imperial court as too important.

If Mu Jing is him, Mu Jing will choose to give up the throne, give up Guanzhong, go away, and start over, so that there is a possibility of killing back, and he will become a target from the beginning, and no one will give him any chance at all.

"The Han family should have collapsed a long time ago!"

Huangfu Yin said coldly.

Because of the Han family, the Huangfu family has almost extinct the bloodline, and this hatred is in the Huangfu Song, in Xiliang, and in the Han family, which is the root of the cause.

"My lord, General Zhang Liaozhonglang, has withdrawn his troops from Chencang!"

In the afternoon, a soldier ran in and gave his hand to report.

"Let him come to me quickly!"

"No!"

The soldiers took the order and left.

In less than two hours, next to the sunset light in the evening, Zhang Liao just took more than ten of the six pro-soldiers around him, quickly stepped up, and went south from the Dasan Pass in the north, and directly entered the Yangping Pass.

He didn't remove his armor, so he came directly to see Mu Jing.

"The last general, Zhang Liao, meet the lord!" The armor on his body was heavy, and every joint was stuck, making it extremely difficult for him to salute.

"No need to be polite on the battlefield!"

Mu Jing waved his hand directly and said, "Let's talk about it, suddenly hit Chen Cang, did you think of any plan to break the pass!" ”

"Not really!"

Zhang Liao shook his head and replied, "Fighting Chen Cang is just a temptation!" ”

"Tempting what?"

"Test Ma Teng's troop deployment!"

"And the result!"

"Defeat on the battlefield!"

Zhang Liao said: "Chen Cang's defense is much more meticulous than I imagined, and the main general is not Ma Teng, but a young general!" “

"Who?"

Mu Jing squinted.

"Pound!"

"Pound?" Mu Jing has a slight impression of this person, no, it should be said that he has a good impression of this person in history, especially in the first battle of Jingzhou, he carried the coffin and fought, that kind of courage, that kind of bearing, very people can have.

"This person used 5,000 troops to block one of my army, a whole three days of attack, not a drop of water, no lure, no strong attack, no surprise in the night attack, so young, with this calm, it's really amazing!"

Zhang Liao squinted his eyes: "In the future, he will be a confidant and a great enemy!" ”

"That's also for the future, and now the problem is here!"

Mu Jing said: "Defeat on the battlefield, but what about your strategic intentions?" ”

"Get what I want!"

Zhang Liao said: "Ma Teng is definitely not in Chencang!" ”

"Where did Ma Teng go, don't say that he guards the Meridian Road and the Slope Valley Road, I don't believe it!" Mu Jing said.

"I'm guessing, too, that's why I'm fighting this fight!"

Zhang Liao said: "Before we deployed, with the Chencang Meridian Road as a guide, to reopen the road to the west of Guanzhong, we had already let Huang Shao lead the elite of the Yellow Turban from Wudu to cross Qishan, from Qishan to the north, cross the street pavilion, enter Fufeng, enter Guanzhong along the river, and break through the defense of Chencang from the eastern front, but Ma Teng is suddenly not here, will they have already guessed our minds!" ”

Once bitten by a snake for ten years, I was afraid of the well rope.

He was afraid that the strategic deployment would be leaked or understood again.

"If Ma Shoucheng really has this ability, can see the future, and can do anything, he doesn't have to live under Dong Zhuo now, and he is not even as good as Han Sui!" Mu Jing shook his head, he walked back and forth a few steps, and then lay on the border of the sand table, looking at a small handful of terrain on the sand table with a pair of eyes: "It is a fact that he is not in Chencang, and even if he is the main force of the Ma family's army, he is not in Chencang, maybe there is a possibility!" ”

"What is possible?"

Everyone's eyes hurriedly looked at Mu Jing and asked in unison.

"His hometown was copied, and he was unwilling, so he led the main force, broke away from Guanzhong, met Xiliang's hometown, and turned the tide!" Mu Jing gritted his teeth and said, "If that's the case, then it makes sense!" ”

"It's cool back to the west, is it possible?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Xu Shu, who had been silent, asked the question that everyone wanted to ask.

"Although General Huang Zhong's attack on Liangzhou is smooth now, he will definitely not be able to eat the entire Liangzhou for a while, even if he takes Longxi, there are Jincheng, Wuwei, Anding, Hanyang, and Beidi, how can it be so easy to take the entire Liangzhou!"

Huangfuyin analyzed: "The Western Liang Army started in Liangzhou, and it is deeply rooted in Liangzhou, and Liangzhou is even more fierce among the people, as long as someone stands up, it is possible for the whole people to borrow troops!" ”

"Ma Teng, as the general of Xiliang, he won't fail to think of this!"

"Will he give up Guanzhong and withdraw his troops from Liangzhou at the risk of being punished by Dong Zhuo?"

"I think it's unlikely!"

The emperor's seal is categorical.

"You are from Guanzhong, Guanzhong will be like a desert Liangzhou is important, that's a sure thing, but what about the people of Liangzhou, will they have your thoughtful and multi-party comparison, and then make a decision!"

Mu Jing asked rhetorically: "Don't underestimate a person's selfishness, sometimes bad things are bad above selfishness!" ”

"Why don't I attack the noon road?" Zhang Liao said.

"No!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "We don't have time to do so many temptations, the soldiers are very fast, we must change the current strategic deployment as soon as possible!" ”

On the battlefield, it is unpredictable.

Strategic deployment will also change with changes, and it is not static.

"How to change?"

Huangfu Yin asked.

"Wenyuan, what do you say!" Mu Jing asked Zhang Liao, he valued Zhang Liao very much, and he was devoted to the cultivation of a general.

"If the lord's guess is true, then ......"

Zhang Liao's eyes suddenly burst out with a sharp essence: "We can try to besiege and kill the entire Ma family army, Ma Teng's march, it takes time, we fight a time difference, we can block him in Hanyang, as long as Ma Teng is annihilated, Guanzhong is equivalent to opening the door for us!" ”

"Someone!"

"In!"

"Where is the person in charge of Jingwu Division, summon him immediately!"

"No!"

Without half a ring, Zhao Xin stepped in.

"You're back?" When Mu Jing saw Zhao Xin, he was a little surprised.

The previous task was carried out by Zhao Xin himself, and he thought that Zhao Xin would not rush back to Hanzhong so quickly.

"As soon as I came back, I heard that the lord had summoned me, so I immediately came to meet the lord!"

Zhao Xin bowed.

"Are things going well?" Mu Jing asked.

Let Zhao Xin besiege Zhao Zhong is a relatively severe test, he does this business, a test that must be faced, only after this pass, can he really grow up and become the king of the night.

"Zhao Zhong is dead!"

Zhao Xin said in a low voice, even now, his mood is still a little low, Zhao Zhong is not only his father-in-law, but also his blood relative, he almost personally sent him a trade route.

"I know this, the battle report has come back a long time ago!" Mu Jing said: "I asked, is the whole operation going well? ”

"Something didn't go well!" Zhao Xindao: "Most of them were besieged and killed, but escaped one, at present, Shi A is still in pursuit, this person used to be my fellow student, and his ability is good, I can only use all my strength to block him from entering Chang'an to report the news, but if I want to kill him, it is a little difficult, Shi A has no news now, that is, he has never succeeded, this person is alive, it is a hidden danger!" ”

"Don't be too persistent, I'm not afraid that this matter will be exposed, as soon as Zhao Zhong dies, it will be enough for us, so that we can cut off the news network around the Son of Heaven, as for who did this in the heart of the Son of Heaven, it doesn't matter at all, even if someone will report and say that we did it, he will also have great doubts about Xiliang, this is just a fuse, it will burn up, it will not be extinguished, he will do it sooner or later!"

"This person is Zhao Zhong's confidant, he may be trusted by the Son of Heaven, if the Son of Heaven is suspicious of us, it will not be good after all!" Zhao Xindao.

"Even if I don't tell him, he will doubt me, not by pouring some dirty water on himself, he can eliminate his suspicions, this God, more suspicious than anyone else!"

Mu Jing waved his hand: "Don't talk about this, the task is completed well, you can just look at the arrangement by yourself, this time, this time, I summoned you to come here, it is to give you a task!" ”

"Please command, my lord!"

"Find out Ma Teng's whereabouts now!"

Mu Jing said: "A certain suspect Ma Teng has already left the customs and returned to Liangzhou!" ”

"What, it's impossible, I'll check it myself!"

Zhao Xin took the order and left.

"I believe in Zhao Xin's ability, he can give us news in a short time, but we can't wait!" Mu Jing turned around, looked at Zhang Liao, and said, "You make a decision now, I fully support you!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Liao was a little moved in his heart, Mu Jing's unconditional trust, what a love for him, he took a deep breath, looked at the roundabout terrain on the sand table, and said: "Immediately give up the first line of Chencang Meridian Road, the whole army will cross Qishan, and then go to Hanyang, on the one hand, besiege and kill Ma Teng, on the other hand, even if Ma Teng does not return to Liangzhou, we can also change the line of operation, and even join General Huang Zhong and join forces to enter Guanzhong from Hanyang!" ”

On the battlefield, there is no room for procrastination.

Whether it is right or wrong is only known after it happens.

Until then, it must be decisive.

Zhang Liao made a decisive decision.

"Pass on the order of the Marquis of Ming, all the soldiers and horses in the theater of the war, move, the soldiers are noble and fast, there must be no objections, if there are different opinions, after this battle, besides, anyone who does not respect the military order now will be dealt with by military law immediately!" Mu Jing was more direct, regardless of the reason, and fully supported Zhang Liao's military orders, making his military orders more convincing and making the people below move faster.

"Yes!"

The entire theater of operations on the Northern Front quickly moved.
