That night, the intelligence of the Shu army and even the border also reached the hands of the county commander of Chuankou County.

Fei Yan, a county commander over 50 years old, although he was born as a military general, his hands still trembled after receiving the information.

"40,000 Shu army, this attack is coming, how can I defend the county seat? This is not to kill the old man? No, hurry up and send people to the county to move rescue troops, if this fight continues, Chuankou County will fall into the right hand of the enemy in less than three days!" Fei Yan's face was pale, it was precisely because he was once a military general that he clearly knew what the meaning of 40,000 troops was!

Only scholars worship "lupine scarves, talking and laughing, and the ashes are gone", just as it is difficult for a person who has never earned a million yuan to truly understand the meaning of a billion yuan.

A gust of wind struck, which provoked Fei Yan to shudder, and the copper bells under the eaves of the county government hit each other, making a crisp sound, and as far as the eye could see, Ye Se was already covered in the night.

Fei Yan sighed, showed the information to his staff, and asked, "What is it like now?"

The staff looked at it, their faces turned pale, and after a while, one of the staff members said: "My lord, we have few shallow soldiers in Chuankou County, only 500 soldiers, how can we resist these 40,000 troops?"

Hearing this, another staff member couldn't help but say, "My lord, either hurry up and ask for help, or ......"

Speaking of this, he kept his mouth shut and carefully observed Fei Yan's expression.

Fei Yan didn't know what it meant, and there was another way to surrender, he was in a trance for a while, and his mind froze for a moment, and he said: "Yes, you have to go to the marshal for help first, and see what the marshal ............says, this tone immediately made the staff show joy, normal people will not have the mind of hundreds of 11,000 against 40,000 troops - that is to find death."

"My lord, someone has been sent from the county town!" At this moment, a servant suddenly came in from outside, and said in a report.

Fei Yan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Invite him in!"

Without him to invite, a few people strode in from outside.

The first person, about thirty years old, resolute and resolute, Fei Yan recognized it at first sight, it was Qian Qingfu's henchman and guard general Chengyuan.

Secretly complained in his heart, and hurriedly said: "This is not a lieutenant, I don't know if you are ...... here."

"The lord orders you to block the Shu army here with all your might, hold on for at least three days, and if you can't hold the county seat after three days, you can retreat to the county seat. Zou Chengyuan sat directly on the main seat and said to everyone present.

"All the grain that can be collected in the county town is concentrated in the county town. It was too late to transport, and before the city was broken, it was all destroyed. In short, the lord asked you to wait here for three days, and once the three days passed, it would be forgotten if you couldn't keep it. Zou Chengyuan had a long face, a pair of eye sockets were slightly sunken, and there was very little expression on his stern face, and when he said this, his muscles moved imperceptibly, and after speaking, his lips tightened again.

Fei Yan lowered his head and thought about it, pursed his lips for a moment, and said: "The grain in the county can be transferred, but now there is no one to transport it away, and you also know the situation in the city, there are only 500 soldiers in the county, how can this stop the 40,000 army of the Shu army for three days, and it is too difficult to divide the troops to transport grain......

Bu Chengyuan's eyes flashed: "Don't worry, the lord has expected your situation here, I came this time, not only to transport some grain and grass back, but also to bring you the second guard Jing Rui, these people will stay in the city today, under your command, together with the five hundred people in your county, the total is fifteen hundred, including this strong city, can always let you guard for three days, right?"

Bu Chengyuan said with a smile.

The hall was silent, Fei Yan thought about it, and took a deep breath: "Since this is the case, I will be ordered, but I must leave five days' rations, and if these five days of food are not left, this battle will not be able to be fought." , Ministry Chengyuan just tugged at the corners of his mouth, agreed, and then stopped staying, and immediately ordered to transport the grain and grass in the county to travel, busy in the middle of the night, and left Chuankou County overnight.

Fei Yan had no choice but to respond, and as soon as the others left, several staff members picked up: "My lord, what should I do?"

"Let's fight, most of these two guards are offended people, so they came here, but their net worth is in Fucheng, and it is impossible to surrender, let's fight first, hey!" Fei Yan said.

It was not only Fei Yan, the county commander of Chuankou County, who couldn't sleep for a long time that night, but also Wang Hongyi, the commander of the Shu army who was hundreds of miles away.

Standing on the city, looking at the black pressure in the distance, Wang Hongyi didn't know what he was thinking.

Beside him, dozens of heavily guarded tiger guards stood there without squinting, and even if an animal passed by, they could not escape their eyes.

The night breeze is a little cool, March chun, the temperature difference in the white night is a little big, only stood in the city for a while, Wang Hongyi turned around and went downstairs, as soon as he entered the room, there were people who sent supper to eat.

Drinking a few mouthfuls of hot porridge to warm his spleen and stomach, Wang Hongyi fell asleep, and woke up the next morning, accompanied by a few attendants, Xiao served him to dress and wash.

When they came to the tent, they would wait here for a while.

Wang Hongyi took his seat on the throne and glanced at the people in front of him.

However, at the moment, we are only attacking a county town, and there is no need for the whole army to advance, so we will send a single general to open up a road and capture the county seat of Chuankou. Who would like to go?

"Lord, please take this mission, jiao and the old man!" Without waiting for the general to react, one person strode out.

Wang Hongyi looked fixedly, and it was the general Du Gongzhen who came out of the ranks.

At this time, Du Gongzhen's hair was gray, his heroic posture did not retreat, he only stood in front of him, and immediately showed the bearing and demeanor of a general, presumably more than half a year has passed, and it is almost time.

Wang Hongyi didn't wait for others, and nodded: "Since you take the initiative to ask for help, it depends on you." Du Gong really listens to orders!"

"The last general!"

"You are the pioneer alone, and after the situation is discovered, the Thunderbolt battalion will cooperate with the action and capture the ship. The county must not disobey the order!"

"The last general obeys!"

"The rest of the generals, prepare for war in the city, and listen to Lone's orders at any time!"

"Yes!"

Du Gongzhen led a capital to Chuankou County in Yongchang County, which was a full establishment of 3,300 people, and he managed the army properly, and at the same time sent spies to inquire about the situation in front.

In less than half a day, the situation in Chuankou County in Yongchang County was found out by Du Gongzhen.

The county seat of Chuankou County is not xiao, the city is high and the ditch is deep, and it has always been a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This county is already located in the border area, and the guard is heavy, the Shu army is pressing, the city of Chuankou County has long been forbidden to the people to enter and exit, and the suspension bridge is hung high.

"Pass my order and march in the direction of Chuankou County!" After getting this news, Du Gongzhen didn't care and ordered the troops to advance.

When Du Gongzhen first descended, he changed from a vassal to a general, of course, he lost a lot, it can be said that if Wang Hongyi used him at that time, he did have some psychological pimples.

However, in the blink of an eye, it is more than half a year, people are very adaptable animals, and for most of the year, I have figured out everything, and he is also a smart person.

And Wang Hongyi unified Dongyizhou, and the momentum was not the same as before, Du Gongzhen gradually changed his mind and positioned himself as a courtier.

He is not a descendant of Wang Hongyi, Du Gongzhen understands political principles well and knows how to express loyalty to Wang Hongyi.

With such thoughts, Du Gongzhen no longer shrank at home, and was a pioneer.

This Chuankou County, 3,300 people can't attack hard, and there is also the Thunderbolt battalion, with this "Thunderbolt Car" to break through the city wall and capture the county in one go, it is not difficult for a general like him.

What he did was not to make meritorious contributions, but only to show his attitude to Wang Hongyi, which was to stand in line.

Of course, Wang Hongyi also knew that as soon as he saw him stand up, he immediately agreed.

The pioneer of Dongyizhou entered the territory of Yongchang County in this way.

In this attack on Yongchang County, the Du family also had their own cavalry, and in terms of number and status, of course, it could not be compared with the Yulin Army Jing Rui.

However, as a surrendered vassal commander, Wenyang kept a personal army of 200 horsemen.

Half a day later, when the army entered the territory of Chuankou County, there was little resistance, but when it entered Chuankou County, there was a fierce conflict with the sentry and encountered a few groups.

Killed a few people, and then caught a few people asked, it turned out that Yongchang County had already known that the Shu army was attacking, thinking that the dispersion of troops was not enough to resist the incoming army, so Suo Xing concentrated all the troops and material resources in the edge area in Chuankou County, and used Chuankou County as a major barrier, and tried to block the advance of the Shu army in turn.

When Du Gongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, just with a xiaoxiao county, he wanted to block this vast army, which was really a joke.

"Ask how many defenders there are in Chuankou County now. Du Gongzhen asked.

There had already been executions on the side, and they used means to pry out the news from the mouths of the captured enemy soldiers.

"General, in the county town ahead, there are only 1,500 defenders!" said to Du Gongzhen after the captain of the execution received the information.

"The old system of a soldier?" Du Gong really heard this, and sneered a few times, how could he not guess Qian Qingfu's plan?

"It seems that what is said to be a barrier here is just a bluff, presumably it is to use this county to estimate the strength of our army, but our army is upright, that is, to destroy the front in Zhengrui, the lord sent me to fight, which is also the meaning, since this is the case, there is no need to hesitate, this county is in the way, just open it and attack it!"

"Pass my order, release the crossbow arrows first, send the letters of persuasion one by one, and give a reply within an hour, and at the same time surround the county town of Chuankou, assemble the thunderbolt car, and prepare for battle!"

"Yes, General!" A row of archers stood under the city, followed by an order, hundreds of letters of persuasion, and under several she's blows, they were she's entered the city.

Du Gongzhen stood tall on the horse and looked at the county seat from afar.

At this time, 3,300 men, plus 200 cavalry, and a thunderbolt battalion, were arrayed outside the county seat, waiting for the county town's reply.

One hour is the time it takes to assemble the thunderbolt, which does not take any time at all.

At this time, it was early in the morning, and there was a gust of wind outside the city, blowing the big banner hunting, and there were 3,300 people, all of whom were Jingrui veterans of Wenyang Mansion, with a strict military formation and a strong military spirit. ！~！
