"You will continue your shift tomorrow."

After Zhuge Changshi left, Feng Da Sima pointed to Zhuge Staff who had listened to the entire conversation and gave instructions.

Zhuge Zhan was stunned, "Ah? Chief of the mountain, why?"

You can indeed learn a lot by following the mountain leader.

But after all, people are made of flesh, not made of iron.

Working as a staff officer is tiring.

Especially now that we are in the midst of a war, it is no exaggeration to say that the staff officers on duty sleep later than dogs and wake up earlier than chickens.

In addition to Taiyuan, there are also grassland, Shangdang, Hedong and other places. Battle reports on each front must be compiled and sorted according to priority and sent to the Da Sima case.

There is no small matter in the military situation. If you make a mistake, it will be the responsibility of delaying the military situation.

Although there are old people above to check it, and finally there is a mountain chief to check it out, so there won't be any big problems.

But if there is a problem in one's own area, it will definitely affect one's reputation.

Especially now, the Army Staff Group is on high alert at every moment of their shift.

Training for ten hours a day is not something Zhuge Zhan has never experienced before.

But Zhuge Zhan really felt that the shift during the war was very tiring, even more tiring than training for ten hours a day.

Most of the staff officers who have finished their shift will prefer to give up breakfast and sleep until noon when they have their rest the next day.

Thinking that not only would he not be able to make up for his sleep tomorrow, but he would even have to be on duty tomorrow, Zhuge Zhan felt that the sky was about to collapse.

Feng Da Sima sneered in his heart, isn't it reasonable for brothers to pay their debts to each other?

His face is as kind as that of an elder, and his skill in eloquence and seduction has long been superb:

"The current war is a God-given opportunity for young people like you to learn. Do you think such a good opportunity is within your reach?"

"Experiencing such a war is worth five years of normal life. If you miss such a war, some people may never encounter such an opportunity again in their lives."

The more Feng Da Sima spoke, the more serious his tone became. He stared at Zhuge Zhan and scolded:

"In this battle, even I have been careful and worked hard at night, not daring to slack off for fear of damaging His Majesty's wisdom. And you are the Prime Minister's son, and Madam has entrusted you to me to teach you on behalf of the Prime Minister."

"Look at what you look like now? Huh? This is a God-given opportunity. If others had the opportunity to let me take care of them personally and give them advice personally, they would be so grateful that they would burst into tears and not know what to say."

"What about you? You don't want to, but you still have the nerve to ask me why? If you learn it, it's not for yourself. Could it be for me?"

"You have taught me hard, but you have not become a talented person. In the future, I will have no face to worship the prime minister. Do you have the face to see your own mother?"

Zhuge Zhan was so scolded that he looked dumbfounded, then gradually became ashamed, and finally felt ashamed:

"Chief Shan, I was wrong."

"Get out!"

He didn't dare to scold Zhuge Changshi, but scolding Zhuge's staff was enough to make Feng Da Sima let out a bad breath. After scolding him, he felt refreshed and pointed at the door to tell people to get out.

The people who got out were actually grateful.

"return."

"Chief of the mountain?"

Zhuge Zhan was startled, turned around quickly, and subconsciously straightened his body.

"Let's make some arrangements. I will go to the mountain pass for inspection tomorrow."

"Here!"

Spring comes quietly and the snow melts very quickly.

Within ten days, all the snow on the Taihang Mountains, except the top of the mountain, had melted away without a trace.

The melted snow water gathers into a trickle, nourishing the Taihang Mountains and allowing all things to revive.

The awakened trees gradually faded away from the silence of winter, and new green shoots began to appear on the branches, as delicate as babies, but announcing the arrival of spring.

Occasionally, one or two early-blooming wild flowers are dotted here. Although they are inconspicuous, their unique color and fragrance add a bit of vividness and vitality to the early spring mountain forest.

Feng Da Sima led his men and horses from the mountain pass to the east along Jingxing.

The mountains are continuous and layer upon layer, and they look even more green under the sunshine of early spring.

There is also a gauze-like mist lingering between the mountains, like a shy girl lightly wearing a veil, adding a bit of mystery and fantasy.

The spring sunshine shines through the sparse clouds on the mountain trails. The light spots are intertwined with the newly emerged moss, making it appear particularly vivid and layered.

All this is like an exquisite ink painting, which makes people indulge in it and forget to leave.

Feng Dashima seemed to be very interested in admiring the beautiful scenery in the mountains. He even raised his telescope and looked at the mountains ahead.

The spring scenery in the Taihang Mountains is beautiful, but Feng Dasima knew that this beautiful scenery contained endless murderous intent.

With the help of the telescope, I saw a dock built in a dangerous place.

"How many thieves are there in that level?"

Feng Dashima asked.

This is the first Wei Wubao at the junction of Han and Wei on Jingxing Road.

I heard that it was left behind by Sima Yi when he fled from Taiyuan to Hebei.

It has to be said that Sima Yi not only had a good way of leading and running an army, but his methods and vision were actually also good - if he had not met the prime minister before, he would have met Feng later.

"The scouts have checked several times. There should be more than a hundred people in the fort, but no more than two hundred at most."

As the vanguard and deputy general of the army, Wang Ping was extremely familiar with this place. He could know the route with his eyes closed, and he could naturally answer the questions casually.

"How long will it take for the Wudang Army to break through this fort? How many casualties are expected?"

Wang Ping did not answer. This was a question that the unworthy military leader needed to answer.

However, this time in the battle of Hebei, the leader of the Wudang Army, Jufu, did not come because he still needed to guard Wuguan.

But guarding a Wuguan Pass does not require the entire Wudang Army.

In Nanyang now, apart from Wancheng and the Wei army's symbolic garrison, there are almost no defenses in other places - with the unhazardous terrain of the Nanyang Basin, there is no way to set up defenses.

Unless Han and Wu had a "tacit understanding" (alertness) with each other, neither would want to expose their flanks to the opponent's front.

Whether the Han army marched eastward from Wuguan or the Wu army crossed north from Xiangyang, they could easily annex the territory of Nanyang except Wancheng.

It is estimated that Wei also knew this and simply smashed the jar, or he may have used the whole of Nanyang as bait to lure Han and Wu into fighting, so most of them withdrew from the Nanyang Basin and concentrated on guarding Xuchang.

It is precisely because Wuguan does not have much defensive pressure that in this battle of Hebei, deputy general Meng Yan led half of the Wudang army to Taiyuan.

The predecessor of the Wudang Army was the Wudang Fei Army, and most of its soldiers came from the Shu region, especially the barbarian soldiers from Nanzhong.

Light and fierce, he is especially good at marching in the mountains. He can be said to be a mountain division during the Three Kingdoms era.

During Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, Feng Da Sima rushed to Longguan and led the Wudang Feijun.

Although the emperor of the Han Dynasty moved the capital, the military underwent major restructuring, but whether it was the Wudang Army or the Tiger Infantry Army, the old foundation was still there and more or less the characteristics of the past were retained.

Not to mention the Tiger Cavalry Army, except for the name change, almost nothing else has changed.

It was precisely because of this that Feng transferred some of the useless troops.

When it comes to attacking and defending in the mountains, among all the armies of the Han Dynasty, the strongest is the Wudang Army.

After hearing Feng Da Sima's question, Meng Yan quickly replied:

"Back to Da Sima, in my humble opinion, if we attack without an army, it will take as little as three days and as much as seven days to cause casualties..."

Meng Yan pondered for a moment, and at the end he said with a hint of shame, "I'm not sure, general."

As a surrendered general who participated in the rebellion, Meng Yan was able to become one of the deputy generals of the Eighth Army of Guanzhong. In addition to his own abilities, being cautious in his words and deeds was also the way to survive.

Hearing this, Feng Da Sima nodded without any displeasure.

Although Jingxing is said to be the best route among the eight routes in Taihang, most of the road can even be used by vehicles and horses.

However, most of the forts guarding the highway were built in dangerous locations, and the counterweight catapults could not play any role at all.

If you want to capture it, go head-to-head and take human lives to kill it, this is the best and only way.

Three to seven days is because even if the attack fails, we can still find ways to cut off the water source and force them to come out and surrender.

It was the idea to start hunting after the snow had completely melted.

But how could the Wei army, which had been able to hold on to Wubao and face the front line of the Han army, be ordinary soldiers?

Before testing the combat effectiveness of these Wei defenders, any speculation on the number of casualties is nonsense.

"Then let's try it."

Feng Dasima put down the telescope and said calmly:

"Start the attack tomorrow and strive to completely eradicate all the rebel strongholds on Jingxing within three months."

Taihang Baxing can be said to be the most important and last barrier in Hebei.

Here, the Han army could not exert all its advantages, but the Wei army could rely on the geographical advantage to bring the Han army to the same level as itself.
