It was midsummer in the eighteenth year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty (213).

Luocheng is already north, about thirty miles away, and a large army with bright armor and numerous banners is currently stationed here. At a glance, there are countless soldiers forming a neat battle formation. There seem to be tens of thousands of soldiers.

The momentum of the army.

There are two roads ahead.

In the main formation, I saw a man wearing a brocade robe, with a slightly strange appearance, with eye-catching big ears on both sides, and waving arms. The man in his fifties suddenly pulled out the sharp sword from his waist and said loudly:

"Tong Zhao listens to the order. I am ordering you to lead the troops to protect the safety of the military advisors. You must protect them thoroughly and make sure no mistakes are made!"

"Here!"

Upon hearing this, the young general on one side immediately galloped over and quickly accepted the order.

I saw that this young man was more than eight feet tall, with a handsome face and bright eyes. He exuded an elegant atmosphere and had a gentle and elegant demeanor.

This is Zhao Tong, the eldest son of Zhao Yun.

But this Zhao Tong is not the other Zhao Tong. As early as three years ago, he had been possessed from later generations.

In an instant, he received the order from his master Liu Bei. His face was filled with joy and he was even gearing up...

Just ahead is the important town of Luocheng.

The city has high walls and thick walls. It is built near mountains and rivers, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Standing in front of Mianzhu City, it is the gateway to Chengdu and a strategic location. Its geographical location is extremely important.

At this moment, there are two roads leading to Luocheng. The one directly ahead is the main road, which is wide and flat, suitable for large armies to march, and can reach directly to the foot of Luocheng.

The other is a remote mountain road, narrow and dangerous.

It is precisely because of the fact that Luocheng is "easy to defend but difficult to attack" that military advisor Pang Tong just made suggestions here, asking Liu Bei to continue to lead the main force to attack Luocheng along the road, and he would send a partial army to drive along the mountain road to bypass it.

After arriving at the side of Luocheng, in order to achieve an unexpected effect.

Although Liu Bei decided to lead his troops to make a surprise attack on the mountain road, he could not resist the arguments of military adviser Pang Tong, and in the end he could only lead a partial army.

This also led to the scene where Zhao Tong was ordered to accompany the army to protect him.

The army then divided up and moved forward separately.

…

While marching on the mountain road, Zhao Tong deliberately placed his elite troops on both sides of Pang Tong so that he could be protected as soon as possible after an accident occurred.

While ordering him to protect him this time, Liu Bei also allocated more than 200 elite Bai'er soldiers from the guard camp for him to dispatch.

It should be noted that the White-Er elite soldiers have followed Liu Bei in the north and south for many years. Almost all of them are elites in hundreds of battles. However, due to the continuous battles, they only number around a thousand.

This time, they only brought more than 500 people to Sichuan, while the rest stayed in Jingzhou, led by Zhao Yun, who was in charge of the inner government.

Taking out about two hundred white-eared soldiers at once was enough to show that they attached great importance to Pang Tong's safety.

But since this time he was ordered to protect Pang Tong's safety, after arranging for the close protection of Bai'er elite soldiers, Zhao Tong asked Ying to lead the way first.

Probably because he has foresight and knows that his side is now in a crisis.

Not far ahead is the famous "Luofengpo."

In original history, this place was the place where Feng Chu Pang Tong died.

If nothing else, I am afraid that there are already ambushes all over the front, just waiting for those who are destined to go there...

Zhao Tong knew very well that if his side continued to proceed according to the original plan, then Pang Tong's outcome might not change.

And this time he was assigned this mission because his master Liu Bei meant to train him.

If this mission cannot be completed well.

I am afraid that any further opportunities to join the military and perform meritorious service will be far away from him.

Now that we have come to this troubled time and become the descendants of the Five Tigers of Shu Han in the future, how can we not cherish fame and fortune?

The future is still extremely important.

He understood that being able to follow Liu Bei to Sichuan was a place his father worked hard to win for himself.

In the past few years since I traveled back in time, because I was still young, I had few opportunities to participate in wars.

And this time Liu Bei ordered him to protect Pang Tong Zhouquan, which was also an opportunity.

Zhao Tong thought to himself that this was also a good opportunity for him to stand out.

If you perform well, everyone will naturally be happy.

If there is any discrepancy, it may be a different matter.

After sorting out these things, Zhao Tong suddenly took a deep breath and his expression gradually became serious.

"It can only be said that there will definitely be an ambush ahead. If we want to protect our military advisors, we can only try to thwart the enemy's ambush so that it cannot set up an ambush."

However, thinking about this, Zhao Tong couldn't help but shake his head and muttered to himself: "Thwarting an ambush may be easy to say, but I'm afraid it's not that easy to implement."

After all, this ambush was personally led by Zhang Ren, a famous general in Shu.

It's not easy to defeat him.

What's more, in this surprise attack on the trail, our side is still in the light and the enemy is in the dark, so it will be even more difficult to operate.

After pondering for a long time, a smile appeared on Zhao Tong's lips, as if he was confident.

As time went by, this infantry army of nearly 5,000 soldiers gradually moved closer to "Luofeng Slope".

The further we went, we saw that the mountain road, which was not wide in the first place, seemed to be getting narrower, and the mountains on both sides were undulating and becoming more and more steep.

Even so, all the ministries still formed formations as ordered.

There was no sign of retreat or timidity among the troops.

It can be seen that the military quality of this army is also surprisingly excellent.

Just after noon.

It's mid-to-late May, the sky is clear today, and the temperature is extremely hot.

Each group had been marching for an hour or two, and they were already sweating profusely.

Zhao Tong had just led the vanguard to reach the foot of Luofeng Slope, and then ordered his subordinates to take a short rest before continuing to move forward again.

Later, Pang Tongcai led the Chinese army to arrive!

When they reached the entrance, they saw a middle-aged man who was riding a white horse, thin and dark-skinned, no more than seven feet tall, and couldn't help but slowly asked the guard beside him:

"Where is this place?"

Hearing this, a local sergeant seemed to have listened and responded:

"For the information to the military advisor, this place is called Luofengpo!"

"Luofengpo?"

As soon as these words came out, the man's brows were slightly focused, and he felt inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, so he muttered to himself: "My Taoist name is Feng Chu, and the name of this place is not good for me!"

But when the conversation changed, he looked at the mountains and other terrain on both sides, with a look of indifference on his face, and then he showed a slight smile and said:

"However, my name is Feng Chu. Even if I get over this, the enemy will not be able to predict it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand and shouted:

"The whole army camped on the spot to rest and recuperate."

The order was passed down, and although the generals in each department looked puzzled, the military orders were overwhelming and they had no choice but to obey.

Immediately, except for Zhao Tong who led the vanguard through the Luofengpo crossing, all the other troops camped here to rest.
Chapter completed!
