"Oh, that's fine. Liu Shengzhi seemed to think about it, and finally nodded.

That Chen Zong breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't know whether what Liu Shengzhi said just now was true or false, but he wouldn't be so stupid to really sit in Hanzhong.

He is a surrendered general, and he has just submitted Liu Shengzhi. Loyalty has not passed the test of time, even if Liu Shengzhi believes in him. But the army below will definitely be worried.

Moreover, even he himself did not dare to guarantee it. If his own family is in Hanzhong, will he take it seriously, seize Hanzhong by himself at once, and then cut off Liu Shengzhi's back road......

The human heart is inherently fragile, and there are often countless thoughts in an instant, and no one knows how they will choose until the end of the day!

Therefore, the way of the emperor is not to believe that his subordinates will not rebel, but not to let them produce opportunities and thoughts of rebellion.

Liu Shengzhi just said it casually, and his family reacted immediately. At this time, he didn't gamble everything, and believed in other people's capital.

Even if Chen Zong has a ninety percent chance and will not be opposed, as long as there is a one-percent chance, Liu Shengzhi will fall into a situation similar to that of Mao Xuan now.

Why bother to do this kind of thing? It's not like there is no other choice?

On the second day, in the continuous rainy weather, Chen Zong led 5,000 men and horses towards the Golden Bull Road.

It's autumn and winter now, but it's so rainy and rainy, it's even colder. I'm afraid that in another month or two, it will not be easy to mobilize troops.

However, thinking that Mao Xuan was trapped under the Sword Pavilion, it should be even more difficult to live in the future.

Mao Xuan's life at this time was indeed not very easy, after he found himself being attacked from front to back. He finally made his choice. did not return to the division to attack Wang Zhenxi's army, which had cut off his own back road, but attacked the Sword Pavilion like crazy.

Even trebuchets are no longer used to attack. Instead, they chose the most heavily lost ant-attached siege city.

Let his subordinates climb towards the city wall like ants, but then they will be rained with stones and arrows. Even boiling oil and hot water were poured down.

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the defenders in the Sword Pavilion suddenly seemed to have changed. It became a morale boost, although the entire Sword Pavilion was already shaky and crumbling. But the defenders defended it again.

After attacking the city for three days in a row, not to mention that the Sword Pavilion was not defeated, more than 3,000 people had been killed and wounded, and the morale could be said to have fallen to the extreme.

In the era of cold weapons, three days of hard work. More than 3,000 people were killed and wounded, and half of them were killed and wounded, and how serious the blow to the morale of this army that was flanked before and after can be imagined!

At this time, Mao Xuan's confidence was finally shaken. began to turn around, turned around and killed the Golden Bull Road.

But at this time, Wang Zhenwei set a fire and burned all the plank roads near the Sword Pavilion.

When he saw the fire, Mao Xuan's face turned pale. Know you've been fooled. However, at this time, there was nothing to be done, so he could only order the forward troops to repair the plank road.

It's just that the so-called plank road is on the cliff of almost 90 degrees, digging holes one by one. Then the wood is inserted into the inside, and then the wooden planks are laid. It is like a bridge in the sky.

This kind of plank road, if you are a little timid. It's just that the legs are weak. Not to mention that if you want to fix it, it will be even more difficult. At least not in three or five days!

And now. What's worse is that Mao Xuan's army has begun to run out of food.

This is sinicization.。 Mao Xuan was annoyed to death. If he had directly chosen the army to return to the division to strike, with his sharp spirit at that time, he would naturally be able to defeat Wang Zhenevil's 300 men and horses.

Even if he burned the plank road, he also had enough time to repair it.

However, now they are caught in a dilemma.

It rains continuously, and in autumn and winter, it becomes more and more clammy and cold. The army has already begun to run out of food, and it will be delayed for a few more days. His army was about to be completely trapped......

At such a time, the rainy weather also had a great impact on Liu Jinling's cavalry. The roads are muddy, and the wet clothes and shoes almost freeze people in less than half a day.

Even if Liu Jinling was mentally prepared, the difficulty of this march was vaguely beyond his expectations.

It is not easy to enter Shu, all the way to the mountain road. Therefore, there were not many cavalry brought by Liu Jinling, and now there were only more than 300 cavalry, plus a few hundred infantry, which was enough for a thousand, almost all of them were like clay figures, and they rushed to Chuyang.

But I saw that the city of Chuyang had been surrounded by thousands of men and horses, and it was attacking the city.

The so-called siege is just a joke in Liu Jinling's eyes.

It's nothing more than beating gongs and drums under the city, throwing a few stones at the city, and making a noise.

In fact, these besieging people were just peasants with farm tools in their hands.

However, I saw Liu Jinling's army coming. Someone immediately came to contact him, bowed down in front of the horse, and said: "Xiaomin is a member of the Li clan of Weiyang, and he is now being ordered to besiege the ...... of Weiyang."

"Yes, very well done!" Liu Jinling laughed, although it was a joke in his eyes.

But these people can play such a big role, which is far beyond Liu Jinling's imagination.

"Who asked you to attack this city?" asked the guide beside Liu Jinling.

"At the Heavenly Master Stage, there are 300,000 stones of grain and grass, and we are now desperately transferring and delaying time. So it's just a bluff and not let the city find out......"

"What, how much?" Liu Jinling almost fell off his horse.

"300,000 stones of grain and grass, only a few more ......," the Li disciple named Li Ji said proudly.

300,000 stones! How many do you have to pile up?

Liu Jinling remembered that Huan Xuan crossed the river to seize Jiankang, but he only raised 300,000 stones, grain and grass.

However, Huan Xuan's subordinates have several states. Half of Liangzhou, half of Jiangzhou, plus the whole of Jingzhou. I'm afraid that dozens of counties and millions of people have just raised so much grain to cross the river......

Of course, this is just the first batch. But think about it, this is just Hanzhong, the land of five counties. So much grain and grass were requisitioned. That Mao Xuan is really crazy to the extreme......

If you don't die, you won't die!

Especially thinking that so much grain and grass actually fell into his own hands, Liu Jinling almost looked up to the sky and laughed.

The large county of Nayang, known as the county order, has a population of tens of thousands. A few days ago, I learned that there were bandits at Yangping Pass, and I heard some vague news from the direction of Hanzhong.

In short, after a few days of anxiety, seeing that no one paid attention to this Yang City, he gradually became aware of it, and prepared to send someone to inquire about the news and see what was going on at Yangping Pass. (To be continued......)
