Seeing some changes in his son, Lan Tian was happy from the bottom of his heart. The one he was most worried about was Lan Ji. Countless stories told Lan Tian that "a sharp knife is easy to break". Over the years, he had been polishing Lan Ji's character.

Huben Wutang asked the youth camp to go out for assessment, Guangzhou Medical College also transferred hundreds of students, and dozens of doctors went north. No matter whether Cao Pi knew how to use Sun Quan's poisonous plan, the battlefield would never rely on doctors less, and Lantian's characteristics

Just prepare for a rainy day.

"In this battle against Wu, the tens of thousands of county soldiers are just a support. The main breakthrough point is still in the trapped army. Should I send you to Guiyang now? The war may not have started in Boyang yet." Lan Tian deliberately joked.

"Hehe, I listen to Uncle Gao, I will never suffer any loss if I follow you..." Lan Ji smiled mysteriously.

Song Chen laughed in his heart when he heard this, and said to himself that General Gao really understood his husband. There are no brave generals in Changsha. Lan Er's exaggerated martial arts skills inevitably gave him the opportunity to go into battle with his husband. Instead, he went to Guiyang to join the trapped army. Lan Yuan may not have

Willing to let brothers take risks.

After Lantian dealt with Jiaozhi's troubles, he contacted Hu Ke one after another and set up a situation to let Jiangdong provoke the war. It was much easier to take the initiative than to be passively beaten.

Dealing with Jiangdong is different from dealing with the Jiaozhi gentry. The political structure of Jiaozhou was relatively simple under Lantian's rule. Lantian also needed this stable rear area as a foundation. While Jiangdong was nominally headed by Sun Quan, in reality it was the Jiangdong gentry who controlled the resources.

He can conquer his opponents through war and killing, but Lantian will not be as direct as Sun Ce.

Destroying the Huaisi group that 'invaded' Jiangdong would not necessarily bring disgrace to the Jiangdong gentry. Therefore, Lantian's opponent was not the Jiangdong gentry from the beginning, but the Sun family and the Huaisi sect entrenched in Jiangdong.

Sun Quan made a desperate move and still wanted to backstab. In addition to his deep-rooted backstab spirit, he was also mainly inspired by Lan Tian's deception.

The war in Jingbei was well known to the world. After the trapped troops returned to Guangzhou from Jiaozhi, Lantian secretly ordered the trapped troops to board the ship fully armed and threatened to go north to Xiangfan to help Guan Yu fight against Cao Cao. The people at Panyu Pier all saw it, and some people were carrying drinks.

Send melons and fruits.

The fleet docked at Quanling Pier and transferred the goods at night. The Jiaozhou transport ship that had been waiting there had taken over as a substitute. Each ship had several armored "soldiers" on guard. The fleet continued to set off the next day, crossing the Xiang River.

Linxiang, Dongting and other places, and finally took advantage of Jiangling to bypass the Han River, and sent doctors from Guangzhou Medical College, military supplies and other supplies to Xiangyang.

The transport team was like "crossing the river in white clothes". In the eyes of passing merchant ships, they were the trapped troops. The news of the trapped troops going north was then sent to various places in Jiangdong via land and water.

All members of the True Entrapment Army disembarked at Quanling. They pushed the improved tiger-shooting carts and unloaded their armor and walked. According to the route Lantian and Gan Ning took from Guiyang to Lingling, they went straight south along the deep water, and then along the Jiuyi Mountain

The southern foot enters the territory of Guiyang.

When Lan Tian went to Linwu from Quanling for an inspection, he took a few kids there once. Lanyuan and Gaoling still remembered the scene of Gan Ning killing a tiger.

General Lan Yuan stationed the main force of the trapped army in Linwu, but he went to Chen County to guard Guiyang for Xi Zhen. All this was hidden from the spies in Luling.

The road to Guiyang to exit Xiaopu Pass and attack Guangzhou was both short and wide. The only way to transport grain was through this road. Lan Tian calculated that Lu Dai would divide his troops into two groups, and the main force from Luling would go to Guiyang along the way to cover the supply team.

Going south, the other group led a small number of troops, carrying rations with them out of Longchuan, and plundered supplies from the people along the way. Finally, the two armies returned to the city of Guangzhou.

Lantian placed the trapped troops in Guiyang with the purpose of defeating Luling Lu Dai's main force. The Longchuan direction also left a surprise for the opponent. Guangzhou's troops were indeed weak at the moment, but with Pingnan General Gao Shun in charge, Lantian did not go out much.

Worry.

This is Lan Yuan's first independent battle. Neither Lan Tian nor Gao Shun had any guidance before the battle, which can be regarded as a major test for him.

After Lan Yuan arrived in Guiyang, he immediately asked Chu Qing to release the reconnaissance camp. Intelligence was the highest priority in the war. He had repeatedly heard Lan Tian and Gao Shun mention this, and it was now a habitual order.

Later, Lan Yuan divided the small number of trapped troops into three groups, including a thousand-strong crossbow battalion stationed at Xiaopu Pass. He was not prepared to send a single Jiangdong soldier south, so Gaoling led three thousand soldiers to station in Hanwei County, northwest of Shenyang County.

, Lan Yuan led 6,000 main troops to deploy in Linwu.

Linwu is far away from Xiaopu Pass, and Shenyang is in a valley between two mountains. The trapped troops are wearing heavy armor and cannot pursue them from behind. However, Linwu County has transport ships left by Gan Ning. Transport ships are the main link between counties.

Transportation, Lan Yuan, etc. were all recruited for military use after arriving in Guiyang. The new owner of Deng Village, Li Yang, took the initiative to arrange for the villagers to repair it. Everything was under intensive preparation.

In early July, Lu Dai ordered Ding Feng, Dai Liang, and Chen Shi to lead 20,000 troops out of Nanye to contain the defenders of Xizhen in Guiyang, capture Xiaopu Pass as quickly as possible, and establish a grain road to Guangzhou.

Dai Ze and He Qi took a detour to Longchuan.

Because Ding Feng had entered Guiyang Road twice and was familiar with it, he was appointed as the vanguard by Lu Dai before setting off. Dai Liang followed closely as the commander-in-chief and led his troops, and Chen Shizhe escorted the grain team at the end.

Detouring from the western end of Dayu Ridge, the main force of Luling arrived in front of Qujiang, an important town in the south of Guiyang, where Ding Feng was blocked by Lan Yuan and returned.

Dai Liang was thinking about whether to attack the city, while Ding Feng personally returned to his horse and suggested a detour.

General Dai Liang asked puzzledly: "Excuse me, how many troops can be stationed in this remote and small county? What is there to fear even if Xi Zhen comes in person? Chengyuan (Ding Feng), don't forget that we have an army of 20,000."

Ding Feng clasped his fists and explained: "General Dai should have participated in the Chaisang Collegium. The Marquis of Nanchang in the four counties of Jingnan will make arrangements. Our task is to invade Guangzhou and control Jiaozhou. Wouldn't it be a waste if we attack the city as soon as we see it? Furthermore, the terrain of Qujiang is relatively opposite.

It is wide open and it is best not to use weapons if you can go around. General Chen is guarding the grain team at the rear, so there is no need to worry even if there is an attack from the defenders."

"But that will slow down the advance of the army..." Dai Liang frowned.

Ding Feng replied: "After Qujiang, there are Shenyang and Xiaopu Pass to the south. It won't be too late for us to capture Xiaopu Pass and then go back to Qujiang. The terrain of Xiaopu Pass must first be easy to defend but difficult to attack. If Xi Zhen knows

If we are prepared with intention, it will be difficult to attack Guangzhou by surprise."

"Soldiers are valuable and quick, as Cheng Yuan said. When General Zi Heng (Lü Fan) attacked Guiyang from the South China Sea, he was blocked at Xiaopu Pass for a long time..." Dai Liang nodded in confirmation and ordered the entire army to follow

On the east side of the mountain, they bypassed Qujiang, but were not blocked by the Qujiang defenders in the process.

Twenty miles to the south from Qujiang, the army stationed horses by the river to rest and regroup. Just as Chen Shi was escorting the grain team to catch up, Ding Feng sent a sentry scout from the front and encountered bandits five miles to the south. Three of them

The sentry was killed on the spot.

The bandit gang was Wang Jin, Ding Feng's "old acquaintance". Ding Feng, who was resting by the roadside, was furious when he heard this, so he clasped his fists and asked Dai Liang for a tassel: "This beast has a big enmity with the last general, please allow me to go first."
