Let’s not talk about the problem of frostbite in the army. Just thinking about wearing such bulky clothes in winter and wearing armor outside is very beautiful.

How to wield the weapon is a problem.

It would be unimaginable if the defenders poured water from the top of the city again.

My dear, there will be more after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue. There will be more exciting things to come!

Even if you have stone cannons, a powerful siege weapon, you must also have stone bullets. In the ice and snow, just digging through the snow to find stones is a laborious task.

It's not impossible to melt snow and then re-condensate ice bullets, but it's just not powerful enough.

Therefore, what Feng Da Sima asked was to surround Wen County, not to besiege it.

As for why it is Wen County, it is because Wen County is the hometown of the Sima family.

As luck would have it, it's not far from a big river.

Crossing the river from Mengjin to the north, the first county town we encountered was Wen County.

Seeing that Da Sima finally mentioned the war, Jiang Wei became energetic, and then became a little worried:

"Da Sima, the food and grass in Luoyang are not sufficient. If the army crosses the river and goes north to fight, it can only last for a month and a half at most."

It is indeed not easy to transport grain from Chang'an to Luoyang, but crossing the river from Luoyang to the north is much easier than crossing the Taihang Mountains.

This is what Jiang Wei doesn't understand:

Why did Da Sima seem to rather attack the Taihang Mountain Pass this time than send troops from Luoyang?

"One and a half months is enough."

Feng Da Sima nodded and looked at Jiang Wei, "When Bo Yue goes back, be prepared and obey orders at any time to cross the river and go north."

"Wen County is the best if we can win it. It doesn't matter if we can't win it. Anyway, we just want to force Sima Yi."

"Of course, I will also ask the Hedong side to cooperate and see if we can take advantage of the opportunity to capture one or two Xingdao."

At the same time, he also ordered:

"If the war is unfavorable, don't be reluctant to fight. The best thing is to return to Luoyang in time."

When Jiang Wei heard this, he understood immediately and was a little disappointed at the same time.

It seems that this time, Da Sima really did not think about attacking from Luoyang.

"Da Sima, the Taihang Mountains are steep. If we attack the pass by force, I am afraid there will be many casualties among the soldiers."

"If you are marching and fighting, there will be no casualties. Compassion will not lead the troops." Da Sima seemed to have read Jiang Wei's thoughts, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

"This time in the Hebei War, the main task for Luoyang is to force Hanoi so that Sima Yi cannot concentrate on defending the Taihang Mountains."

After a pause, he made another promise to Jiang Wei:

"You are General Zhennan. Don't always focus on the north. The south is what you should pay attention to. For example, Xuchang is what you need to consider."

"The general understands!"

Jiang Wei immediately stood up with a happy face, cupped his fists and saluted.
