Chapter 0745 Beheading and Censoring(1/2)
"Your Majesty, the situation has changed." When the sun turned to the west, the captain of the Dark Night Battalion came over to report the new situation, "It seems that Cao Cao is making some moves?"
Feng Yong was shocked, "Has he been discovered?"
"No. It's a new bandit army discovered in the west."
Feng Yong's heart tightened, "How many people are there?
"I don't know yet. The brothers in the camp are trying to find out. But it looks like there are many vehicles, cattle and horses inside, and it looks like they are escorting grain and grass."
At this time, Zhang Yuan, who had been staying on the top of the mountain to observe the enemy's situation, also ran down panting, still holding tightly in his hand the telescope that Feng Yong had temporarily asked him to keep.
"Captain, Cao Cao has sent a batch of food and supplies."
This is...the logistics force?
Feng Yong's mind immediately changed.
Coming from the west, they were either sent by Jincheng, or they came from the opposite side of the Yellow River and crossed the river from Jincheng.
Heading east, there is definitely only one destination: Yuzhong.
Therefore, this small camp is a transit station or a temporary foothold.
From the smooth road in the mountains, to the unguarded mountain pass, to the Wei army's large convoy appearing right before his eyes.
Feng Yong became more and more sure of one thing: Jiang Wei's conjecture was probably right. The Wei army in Jincheng never expected that he would come over the mountain.
Although I don’t know what Liu Hun and Chen Shi did to prevent the Wei army defenders in Hexi from notifying Jincheng.
Or maybe they have already been notified, but General Jincheng didn't pay attention at all.
But no matter what, this is an excellent opportunity.
Feng Yong thought for a while and asked someone to call Li Jian over.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
The turban that Li Jian originally wore has long since disappeared because it is easy to get caught on branches and weeds while walking in the mountains.
The robe on his body also had several tears.
Although this son of an aristocratic family did not seem to have suffered too much, he was able to grit his teeth and persevere all the way, which made Feng Yonggao look at him.
"Are many people aware of this road over the mountains from the south?"
Feng Yong asked.
"There should be quite a few. After all, the clan's caravan comes out of the mountains, so it can't be hidden from anyone."
Li Jian didn't understand why Feng Yong asked this question, and he pointed outside specifically.
"There used to be a small village on the flat land outside the valley. In fact, that was where the clan's caravans stayed for the night after coming out of the mountains."
Feng Yong immediately thought of that small camp, "But there are no small villages outside now, there is only a Cao thief's camp."
Li Jian smiled when he heard this.
"The Lord Hao Jiao learned that since the Northern Expedition of the Han Dynasty and the restoration of Longyou, many people in Yuzhong and near Jincheng have been moved to Hexi."
"Most of those who have not been relocated are in the city and around the outer city. How can there be any human habitation in other places?"
"So when the tribe's caravan came over the mountains for the last time last year, the small village was no longer there."
Li Jian felt sad when he thought of his family.
At that time, Didao was the only way to go to the Western Regions. Later, although everyone went from Jincheng, there was no problem for the family's caravan to take the old route.
They are all going to the Western Regions anyway!
Unexpectedly, over a hundred years of Qiang chaos, this passage was completely blocked.
Later, the family finally found a new road. Although it was not very convenient, it was better than nothing.
Who would have thought that they would encounter the Northern Expedition of the Han Army again, and this time they would not even be able to make it to Guanzhong.
Fortunately, I could still get some Shuzhong specialties from the Li family in Shuzhong, so I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Who would have expected that the war between Han and Wei in Longyou would stop, and the Qiang would cause chaos again in Longxi, and even Didao was almost occupied by the barbarians.
So sometimes Li Jian really doubted that there was something wrong with the feng shui of the Li family's ancestral tombs?
Otherwise, why has the fortune of the Li family in Longxi become weaker and weaker over the years?
Feng Yong naturally didn't know what Li Jian was thinking. When he heard Li Jian's words, he remembered that there were no people coming and going on the official road, and then he suddenly came to his senses.
At the same time, I was even more certain in my heart that General Jincheng Shou was totally unprepared for this side road.
"Go and call all three generals."
Feng Yong ordered Zhang Yuan.
Li Jian resigned wisely.
After learning the true situation outside, Jiang Wei became excited and was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity!"
"Food and grass are the foundation of an army. If Cao Cao's food and grass appear here, then Jincheng must have sent reinforcements to Yuzhong."
"As long as we cut off their food and grass from the rear, Cao's bandits will have no food in their army, and then Cao's bandits who went to rescue Yuzhong will collapse! This is much better than containing the Jincheng bandits!"
Well, this speech is very consistent with Jiang Wei's historical character.
Sometimes I like to use surprise troops and dangerous troops to either win a big victory or a big defeat.
Feng Yong looked at Zhang Ni and Jufu, but saw that they were also looking at him with eager eyes.
"Your Majesty, the enemy's food routes are often heavily guarded and carefully guarded. Opportunities like this are rare to find now, so don't miss it!"
Although Zhang Yi was more steady and suppressed his voice, his tone was urgent.
Feng Yong pondered, "These are just our guesses. How sure are you?"
Jiang Wei, Zhang Ni, and others looked at each other, and finally Zhang Ni spoke: "It's worth talking less."
That means there is still 30% danger?
Feng Junhou felt a little regretful. In fact, I wanted nine points... and left one point for God's will.
"Okay! Then we will rob this batch of food and grass."
Feng Yong nodded in agreement.
Now I know nothing about the situation in Jincheng and Yuzhong. If I can rob this batch of food and grass, I can at least get some information from the Cao thief, so I can make some countermeasures.
The captain of the Wei army stood outside the camp, constantly shouting at the auxiliary soldiers and civilians, asking them to place the grain carts and baggage inside the camp according to the rules.
At the same time, they were asked to place all kinds of livestock around the camp.
Some people were in such a hurry that the food and grass in the car suddenly fell out, causing the captain to curse loudly.
"Are you looking for death in a hurry?! This is the food and fodder for the army ahead. If something goes wrong, I'll see how many of you have your heads chopped off!"
The military prince guarding the camp led his people out to help, and all the food and grass had to be placed before the sun went down.
It was busy and chaotic inside and out.
"Captain Yang has been traveling all the way. He must have been tired and thirsty for a long time. The camp has already prepared some hot soup. Why don't we go in and rest for a while? I can leave matters outside to my subordinates."
The military marquis said to the leading captain.
The captain nodded, and just as he was about to turn around, a farmer who happened to be passing by carrying grain and grass suddenly shook his hand.
With a "peng" sound, the grain bag fell to the ground, the mouth opened, and the yellow millet spilled out, mixing with the dust on the ground.
"you wanna die!"
The captain was furious, strode forward, took the handle of the knife and hit the civilian husband hard on the head.
The civilian husband was knocked to the ground, and a stream of blood quickly flowed from his forehead.
He screamed and was about to cover his wound when suddenly a look of fear appeared in his eyes and he pointed his finger behind the captain.
At the same time, he opened his mouth and screamed, as if he wanted to speak desperately, but he couldn't say a word.
"Are you pretending to be dead? Why don't you get up and start working soon!"
The captain raised his foot and was about to step on it when his arm was suddenly pulled by someone: "Uncle...Uncle..."
Who do you call uncle?
The captain turned his head angrily, and his open mouth could no longer be closed.
Under the golden light of the sun in the west, countless Shu troops poured out of the valley, like a surging red tide, approaching this small camp.
"Captain Yang, what should we do?"
The military lord with less than 200 men guarding the camp was the first to react, his face extremely pale.
Before the captain could say anything, one of the busy civilians shouted: "The Han army is coming!"
So with the small camp as the center, there was a "boom", and many civilians suddenly fled in all directions like headless flies.
"boom!"
Huge stones hit the city wall, and even the Wei soldiers hiding inside the city gate felt the vibration of the city wall.
