Chapter 328 Retreat

Duke Xuande only entered Shu with thousands of people, and Lei Yuan took on the important task that echoed it. Such a heavy task should have belonged to generals from Guan and Zhang, and now it is handed over to Lei Yuan, which itself represents the absolute trust of Duke Xuande. Such a heavy task will never allow any mistakes, because if there is a slight disadvantage, it may cause a bad situation that cannot be borne.
Lei Yuan has been preparing for the past few days.
Preparation is nothing more than two aspects: one is to train soldiers, and the other is to rectify equipment. All of them are because the mission goal is a strong city and a big city. Even if you launch a surprise attack, it is not easy to make a complete preparation. In other words, even if you attack for a strong attack or even use your lives to pile up, you must complete the task.
However, at this critical moment, he really did not want to arouse doubts from local forces, and even more so that the work in these two aspects was not progressing fast enough. For this reason, although he looked leisurely, he was actually quite worried.
At this time, the entourages were cleaning up a clean area by the stream, and everyone sat down to rest.
Lei Cheng waded the water, came back with a thunderbolt, carried a water bag and handed it to Lei Yuan. Lei Yuan took it and took a few sips, tied it tightly, and hung it around his waist. Although his identity gradually became noble, he still worshipped himself and was still simple, and the water bag he used was just like the soldiers.
After sitting for a while, Lei Yuan couldn't help but get up and walked back and forth by the stream.
In the past few days, although he was thinking about doing it for the outside world, he really hoped to relax a little and gain some inspiration for his actions. But as time passed, he felt more and more difficult to relax.
At this moment, Li Zhen started to stare, and Lei Yuan's mind was filled with the questions he had repeatedly struggled over the past few days: Is this amount of troops currently enough? Even if it is not enough, if you have to fight, how should you fight?
Lei Yuan on the battlefield is a general who dares to make decisive decisions in the eyes of everyone, and is a decisive general who moves forward and retreat. However, outside the battlefield, he is still an ordinary person, he will hesitate, doubt, and be as helpless as he is now. But at this moment, there are some problems that no one can discuss at all.
Several thoughts were tossed and turned in his mind, and Lei Yuan overturned them one by one. He felt a headache, his neck was a little painful, and even his forehead began to get hot.
Although Lei Yuan did not want to show his worries in front of everyone, his entourage saw it.
The entourages were close friends around Lei Yuan, and they were all familiar with Lei Yuan's personality and habits. They knew that at this time, the general must have something important to do in his heart. So the atmosphere of everyone present gradually became serious. Lei Cheng waved his hand and let the soldiers of the army scatter their warnings and stand farther; and let everyone nearby not disturb Lei Yuan.
In a blink of an eye, half an hour passed.
Lei Yuan always walked back and forth by the stream.
Once he smiled and said to his entourages, "Everyone rests, no need to wait."
The entourages winked at each other and spread a little, but no one left.
Li Zhen suddenly rushed over and reported: "General, Mr. Dexin is asking for a meeting."
Mr. Dexin was Hu Du. Previously, Lei Yuan visited Hanchang and rectified the ministry in the local area, and rebuilt the important passes everywhere. Then Hu Du abandoned the official position of Hanchang and temporarily followed Lei Yuan back to Dangqu as the General Fenwei Chief. In the past period, Hu Du was actually responsible for the government affairs from Dangqu to Hanchang, while Deng Zhi, who represented Brazilian prefect Pang Xi, had actually been completely undermined.
Today, Lei Yuan went out for a trip and naturally knew Hu Du beforehand. But he didn't know what he wanted to see.
Lei Yuan said: "Please hurry up."
Then he took a deep breath, pressed his anxiety, sat down beside the gurgling stream, and posed in a leisurely posture.
When the footsteps came close, he turned around and yawned first, then laughed and said, "I was so greedy for the mountains and rivers that I was distracted. Dexin came quickly and sat and talked."
Hu Du was not polite, and sat down next to Lei Yuan.
"There is a problem here. I'd like to ask the general."
"Speaking."
Hu Du leaned his body slightly towards Lei Yuan and asked in a low voice: "Duke Xuande is ready to take action?"
Lei Yuan's heart was thrilled. He paid attention with his light. Not far from his side, Li Zhen pressed the handle of the knife.
At this moment, Hu Du was not the chief of Han Chang appointed by Liu Yizhou, but the subordinate of Xuande Gong, General Fenwei General Secretary. According to his position, he was very clear about abandoning Yizhou and supporting Jingzhou. But the method of Xuande Gong's plot against Yizhou was ultimately a secret. Lei Yuan himself also knew about the secret information conveyed by Jian Yong not long ago; even Gan Ning was still in the dark. How could Hu Du know?
Lei Yuan responded to the situation and made a fuss: "Duke Xuande has agreed with Liu Yizhou to cooperate in the future and will set off in Shu in the near future to form an alliance with Liu Yizhou. As for when to send troops to Hanzhong, it depends on the subsequent situation, and may not take action immediately."
Hu Du smiled: "General, you should know that I am not talking about this."
Lei Yuan stared at Hu Du and said nothing for a moment.
Hu Du sighed and sat down: "If the general thinks I am the chief minister, please be honest with each other. Otherwise, I will be my chief of Hanchang and I can at least protect the safety of the people."
Lei Yuan was still silent.
Li Zhen walked forward a few steps, and was already at the reach of Hu Du.
Hu Du sat in a very straight posture, as if he didn't mind Li Zhen's approaching at all. He stared at Lei Yuan with wide eyes, without even blinking. The fastest update is mobile::
Lei Yuan waved his hand and asked Li Zhen to retreat.
"Dixin, where did you see it?"
"In the past few days, the general seemed to be devoted to the barbarian tribes in the east of the county, and integrated troops, distributed equipment, and fodder to the grassroots troops, making an attitude of conquering the barbarians. However, he secretly sent people to survey the road to Jiangzhou. This road was passed by the general when he came to Brazil, and there were countless people who could serve as guides around the Dangqu, so why bother to re-survey? Even if the distance was required, why do you have to be so mysterious?"
Hu Du said: "So I guess this is a plan to build a plank road openly and cross Chen Cang secretly. The general was planning that once there was a change, he would suddenly attack Jiangzhou with his elite troops, echoing the actions of Xuandegong. Is it right? Thousands of people traveled day and night, raiding for a long distance, and the requirements for the road were naturally different... From this, it is inferred that Xuandegong's actions should be an arrow on the string."
Lei Yuan was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly: "I did send someone to check the way, and I did tell them not to make a statement... It seems that I couldn't hide it from anyone."
Hu Du bowed slightly: "After all, it is still easy to know something after hundreds of years of accumulation of local families."
"However, this is just a survey road." Lei Yuan said seriously: "Dexin, I told you that this time, Yizhou joined hands to fight against Cao to destroy the thieves. General Zuo's intentions can be seen. Even if there are any changes in the future, it must not be what General Zuo is willing to see."
At this time, Lei Yuan's tone was still not leaking at all, and Hu Du couldn't help but admire him a little.
He nodded and said, "Since that's the case, why do you have to plan to attack Jiangzhou for a long distance? You might as well say that the Cao army in Hanzhong has retreated, and the troops are outside, and they are exhausted from fighting for a long time. Isn't it great to lead the soldiers back to Jingzhou on this ground?
Lei Yuan was furious at first.
Then the thoughts of the mind turn, and anger turns into joy.
"Do you lead your troops back to Jingzhou in the name of a large army outside and exhausted long battles?"
Chapter completed!
