Chapter 2023 Is there any chance of a war
Fa Zheng ordered the army to be stationed on the necessary road to Langzhong.
Jiang Wei on Jianmen Mountain received the news and his face was immediately not very good.
A side general who followed him asked, "General Jiang's face is not good. Has he encountered something difficult to solve?"
This partial general is named Li Yan. Although his status is not high at this time, if history progresses according to the original process, he will become a loyal minister in Shu Han in a few years.
There was no general in Shu, and Liao Hua was the pioneer, which described the later decline of talents in Shu Han.
Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang as prime minister.
Zhuge Liang did a lot of things in Shu.
But he was also suppressing some truly talented people, so that the later Shu Han had no general available when the war came.
Those who can lead troops to fight are basically mediocre people.
Characters like Li Yan also gradually grew up in such an environment.
Of course, these are things that will happen according to normal historical processes.
Now Cao Shu's appearance has long changed history, and everything is no longer the same.
The Shu Han, who was not in decline, was pressing Cao Shu, and although there were still some talents, it was a time when he was too late to sustain!
"It's not just difficult to solve?" Jiang Wei glanced at Li Yan: "Fa Zheng stationed his army on the only way to Langzhong, but refused to send troops to attack Langzhong City. He was nothing more than trying to trap His Majesty to death. Liao Hua and I led a group of troops to station at Jianmen Mountain and Bashan. Although we were far away from Langzhong, we could never have the opportunity to send troops to help."
"The general means..." Li Yan also felt something was wrong and asked Jiang Wei: "Is it possible to watch this?"
"What other way is the general?" Jiang Wei asked him.
Li Yan was asked and didn't know how to respond, and his lips moved without saying a word.
"Fa Zheng's next step should be to send troops to collect food and grass around him." Jiang Wei said: "He will also sink ships on the waterway, so that the people in the city cannot withdraw from the waterway. It is indeed very dangerous for His Majesty to stay in Langzhong."
"He sent people to sink ships and plunder food and grass, and we also sent people to harass them." Li Yan said: "As long as the people can escape earlier, the food and grass they can collect must be extremely limited. As for ships, it is much better to send additional personnel to protect them than to stay here and wait and see!"
"General Li said!" Jiang Wei nodded first, then asked him: "If you see Xiahou Dun and others, do you dare to fight?"
Xiahou Dun and others are all powerful generals. Although they have never fought each other, Li Yan knew that he was not their opponent at all.
After swallowing, Li Yan made up his mind and said to Jiang Wei: "As a general of Shu Han, I have received a lot of favors from His Majesty. Now that Shu Han is in trouble, how can I ignore it? General Boyue ordered me to go."
"I brought not many soldiers, and even fewer can be assigned to you." Jiang Wei replied: "Don't pay attention to the enemy on the riverside. Although they try to sink the ship, they will not be able to reach the shore of Langzhong for a while. The general can lead a thousand men to harass the enemy who robbed the grain. You must remember that no matter who is leading the enemy who robbed the grain, don't fight. Just leave after fighting, and wait until they haven't come back to their senses, and then go and fight one."
"General Boyue wants me to harass the enemy?" Li Yan asked.
"It can also be said." Jiang Wei replied: "It's just that the enemy troops robbed food, and we recruited some looted civilians. Our army was insufficient. Although civilians could not play any role in the army, after all, one more head would be more powerful!"
"I understand!" Li Yan responded and said to Jiang Wei: "I'll do it now!"
When Li Yan left, Jiang Wei was still very optimistic about the future situation.
When Fa Zheng came to Langzhong, as long as he dared to attack Langzhong City, the Yizhou army could make corresponding countermeasures.
But he didn't do that, but instead just stayed on the necessary road to Langzhong.
When he was stationed, Liu Bei in the city could not get out, Jiang Wei and Liao Hua outside the city could not get in, so the situation on the battlefield was even more difficult to control.
Jiang Wei ordered Li Yan to lead a thousand men to harass Fa Zheng and send a team to grab grain.
Liao Hua from Daba Mountain is now more convened than him.
The enemy did not attack Langzhong, and all the plans were very different from what Jiang Wei Xiangqian said.
Liao Hua is also a skilled person, but he and Jiang Wei cannot compare with each other.
Many details of the questions he thought about could not be as thorough as Jiang Wei thought.
Standing on a stone on Daba Mountain, Liao Hua looked into the direction of Langzhong.
"The general has been standing here for a long time. Has something troublesome happened?" A voice came from behind.
Liao Hua looked back and saw a general who was about the early twenties.
This person's name is Zhang Yi, and he is also a general in Shu.
Like Li Yan, if he develops according to the historical process, Zhang Yi will be valued and become a general who will lead troops in the future.
But now, his status is not high.
Especially this time on the expedition, he became Liao Hua's deputy general only when Jiang Wei divided the troops.
"General Zhang!" Nodded to Zhang Yi, Liao Hua's eyes fell back to Langzhong City again: "Fa Zheng's army has arrived, but he seemed to have no intention of attacking Langzhong at all. Instead, he stationed on the necessary road some distance from Langzhong.
"If Fa Zheng doesn't attack Langzhong, His Majesty can be safe, wouldn't it be better?" Zhang Yi asked at all without understanding what Liao Hua had to worry about.
"How long can it take to be stable?" Liao Hua said: "Fa Zheng doesn't fight now, so he will fight sooner or later. When he attacks, he is afraid that the city will be short of food for a long time..."
"Didn't General Boyue say before that the enemy came from Hanzhong and they lacked food and grass." Zhang Yi said in confusion: "Is the food in Langzhong City not as good as the Fazheng Army?"
When Liao Hua said these words, he was also unsure.
After all, he didn't know what Fa Zheng planned.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, a scout ran over.
The scouts who ran up from the bottom of the mountain came to the side of the two and reported panting: "General Qi Zheng sent Ma Chao to lead a thousand men to nearby villages and towns to grab grain! The enemy robbed the grain when they saw it, and Ma Chao even did not restrict the soldiers, and many women were also humiliated."
