Chapter 121 Junhou is crazy! He can’t stop at all!
Lujiang.
The night before, Dian Wei entered the Lujiang Pass and walked around the land route. After entering from the mountains, as Jia Xu said, there was no ambush.
Knowing that there was no defense in Lujiang, or that Yuan Shu's troops had not arrived yet, he marched straight in, marching under the stars at night, breaking through three passes and occupying the road, and then returned to the ferry to surrender 500 troops.
Occupy all the boats at the ferry and use them to pick up the army behind.
Dian Wei's cavalry marched again and rushed to Wan County.
Breaking through three levels in one night and killing more than a thousand enemy troops, Dian Wei continued to make great achievements, and he gained great momentum in the battle. He had the momentum to win, and he believed in Jia Xu's words.
So after resting for two hours, he led the troops south to Wan County, preparing to rest again in Wan County.
At this time, Dian Wei seemed to have gone crazy and believed Jia Xu's words.
The prince has great ambitions, and few people know about it. It would be impossible for ordinary people to see the way. But the Lujiang River can be said to be the hub of the future, and it will definitely be the place where the prince can make a fortune... and even be the place where he can save his life after he achieves success.
Therefore, Dian Wei knew about this and was even more determined about this trip. He would never let the prince have any hidden dangers in the future.
In his mind, the truth is very simple.
If you treat me as a nobleman of the country, I will treat you as a nobleman of the country.
Not to mention the promise of "full stomach" back then, Xu Zhen secretly made many arrangements in Wancheng, and even went to Cao Chun in person to plead. It is said to be a plea. Dian Wei can also imagine such an arrogant and unwilling person to ask for help.
How embarrassed the king was.
He kept these friendships in his heart.
Now that Jia Xu has said this, Lujiang must be extremely important to the king's plans and must be captured.
"General, there is no need to be so anxious!"
Jia Xu followed on horseback, his face extremely pale. He really couldn't stand it anymore. Although he was not needed to charge into the battle, he was old after all, and he was not good at marching like this.
If I had known that Dian Wei would be so courageous and diligent, I would not have given him any advice.
Jia Xu knew in his heart that if he waited step by step for the king to arrive, he would actually have a chance to capture Wan County first.
After all, Sun Ce's march from Danyang had to go around the southern part of Shouchun, and he had to travel by land and water. Although the journey was short, it would still take about ten days.
And most of them are infantry and cavalry. After all, the cavalry in the south is not strong, and the terrain is not conducive to raising good horses on a large scale, so the infantry and navy are more outstanding.
This is their terrain.
That’s why Lujiang is important.
The Lujiang River is equivalent to the boundary between the land route and the water route. If the entire county is properly defended, it can be said to be easy to defend but difficult to attack. It can also support the navy and lead the infantry and cavalry southward.
At this moment, we passed by a bamboo forest. It was a time when the fog was majestic and the road was unclear. However, this place was also a quiet place, and it was probably not too far from Wan County.
Lujiang Water Town is a quiet place to live, with many residential houses vaguely visible around it.
In the bamboo forest, the quiet sound of the piano came from the bamboo forest.
The sound of the guqin was melodious, ethereal, and continuous. As soon as Jia Xu heard it, he felt extremely comfortable in his heart. It was as if many messy emotions were instantly smoothed away, and it was like the dust that had been raised settled on the ground again.
"General, did you hear that?"
Jia Xu immediately shouted with an intoxicated look on his face. It would be better to slow down the sound of the piano, stop the march slightly, and enter Wan County slowly, so that the soldiers can rest halfway.
Dian Wei shook his head and said, "It sounds awful, so hurry up and leave."
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about in broad daylight? Don't stay here. We must make contributions to the monarch as soon as possible and take down Wan County!"
"Left and right, go find out who is playing the piano, curse a few words, and tell them to stop playing!"
"Here!"
Dian Wei shouted several times angrily and signaled to the left and right to gallop their horses forward. The horses quickly jumped out and took the lead. The cavalry followed them in high spirits.
Jia Xu was dumbfounded and watched helplessly from behind as two cavalry guards came to someone's house and cursed a few times. The sound of the piano stopped immediately, and then an old man walked out on crutches and watched from a distance with his hands behind his back.
For a moment I was speechless.
Playing the piano to a cow is nothing more than that!
"Alas! March!"
Jia Xu walked with tears in his eyes, following Dian Wei. He felt that his hips were numb, and there were countless things churning in his stomach. He still couldn't figure out why he, a man of nearly sixty,
We must march here.
…
"Oh, Lord! Let's set up camp! Take a rest for a while, we won't be able to leave again!"
At this time, in the wilderness outside the Lujiang River, the army stopped beside a mountain forest near the river.
The rear army left by Dian Wei had just joined Xu Zhen, and came to report that Dian Wei had led his army to Wan County in advance, and the three passes on the front route had been captured, which could be used by Xu Zhen to garrison.
After hearing the news, Xu Zhen immediately marched again and chased Dian Wei.
When Zhuge Liang heard the news of continuing the march, he was almost crying.
Recently, I have been galloping wildly on horseback, chasing the road of the army. I have basically never rested, and my feet are almost useless.
"Why, at such an age, I have to bear so many burdens!"
"Heaven!"
Xu Zhen personally took Zhao Yun and Xu Chu to inspect the nearby terrain, and sent out sentries to know the distance to the pass, and immediately decided to march again.
"Kong Ming, catch up with the army first. Judging from Dian Wei's situation, he should go straight to Wan County."
"There must be enemy troops south of Wan County in Lujiang. He is so tired. Once he takes Wan County, he will definitely relax a little. Otherwise, the army will be exhausted and it will be impossible to continue the fierce battle."
"Therefore, you must not rest. Dian Wei left troops and horses at the pass along the way. After marching immediately, he replaced the current cavalry with the troops stationed at the pass. These soldiers and horses have already rested, so their physical strength will be slightly replenished. This will be convenient
You can continue marching to resist foreign enemies!"
Xu Zhen looked serious, causing all the civil and military officials around him to look at each other, but they did not dare to say anything, and were even shocked in their hearts.
After all, Xu Zhen doesn't rest.
Zhao Yun immediately sighed and said: "Your Majesty, Zilong will definitely follow you. There is no need to rest. We will catch up with General Dian Wei's cavalry in about two days on this journey."
"And the so-called foreign enemy is the Jiangdong Sun Bofu mentioned at the beginning."
"We will march day and night and we will surely catch up."
Xu Zhen and Zhao Yun looked at each other, each showing a happy smile.
Zhao Yun admired him more. Along the way, Xu Zhen had indeed led by example, and nothing he asked his soldiers to do was difficult.
Xu Zhen himself was even more stringent in his demands. He slept less than two hours a day and was even marching most of the time.
Whenever he stopped to rest for a while, Xu Zhen would straighten his back and patrol, personally lead the team to explore the road ahead, and often go ten miles away, then turn back and lead the army.
This is equivalent to having to work harder than everyone else.
One day later, Zhao Yun had already cheered up and followed Xu Zhen. Although he could advance and retreat with Xu Zhen, he was by his side in everything he did and never strayed far away.
But he found that he would feel tired, and sometimes feel dazed and slightly tired.
But Xu Zhen has always been in high spirits.
There is absolutely no such person in the world. How could he become more excited as he gets tired? And every time he takes a half-minute break, he smiles as if he has gained something.
In fact, he uses his words and deeds to inspire the soldiers under his command!
This charm is so admirable.
Zhao Yun suddenly realized that being so sincere and pure, taking the lead and working tirelessly, might be easier to convince people than benevolence and righteousness, and Xu Zhen also had benevolence and righteousness.
Not only in correcting the marching discipline, Xu Zhen's judgment of the situation is still very clear, which means that the fatigue has not made him depressed or confused.
For example, changing troops at the pass along the way can allow the current soldiers and horses to rest, and replace them with the resting sergeants left behind by Dian Wei.
"Let's go! Brothers, hold on, change troops and horses at the pass ahead and continue moving forward to catch up with Dian Wei!"
Xu Zhen turned around and shouted, got on his horse and continued to pat the horse, his eyes firm and slightly smiling.
[March nonstop for five hundred miles! Self-discipline +100]
[Extra command +1]
【Command: 86】
[Equestrian proficiency +2%]
[Equestrian: Mastery Level (67%)]
[Self-discipline value: 6710]
Whether he is marching, patrolling or exploring the terrain, he can gain self-discipline points. Not only that, Xu Zhen's constant consumption triggered a self-discipline task that he continued to adhere to.
If he continues to consume physical energy and continues to exercise every day, he will receive continuous rewards. The current progress is very smooth, and it will be settled soon.
According to past experience, this must be a brand-new feature. The more you pay, the more you will get!
"The way of heaven is what it is, let alone my blessing!"
