The military situation in Nanzheng was tense and there was no need to delay. Therefore, after discussing the plan, Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan set off immediately, and there was no delay at all along the way.
Therefore, it didn't take long to reach Nanzheng.
However, not long after that, several homing pigeons flew into the Jin army camp in Yangping Pass!
"What a leader, he actually sent Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan back to Nanzheng!" Li Jing pinched the small piece of paper he took out from the confidence pigeon and said with a soft smile.
However, only those who are familiar with Li Jing may be able to hear the worry hidden in this laughter, as well as the murderous intent like an iron horse.
Li Jing could probably guess that even if Lianyan's 5,000 troops could get out of the Ziwu Valley, there would definitely not be many left. This road was really dangerous to the extreme, and even if they didn't pay enough casualties, they would not be able to get out of the Ziwu Valley. In this regard, Li Jing is not that naive yet.
Now that Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan are gone, Geng Yan and the others are really in danger.
In fact, several carrier pigeons like these have been received before.
However, the people in the floating house were not 100% sure of the whereabouts of Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan before. They only discovered some clues and reported them.
After all, if there is a law, how can you not help Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan cover up their departure? Even if you can't deceive them for a lifetime, you can still deceive them for a while. In many cases, you don't actually need to deceive for a lifetime. You can deceive for a moment. In fact, That's enough.
But after Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan arrived in Nanzheng, their whereabouts could no longer be concealed. At this time, the definite news came.
"How is it possible that the Shu army returned to Nanzheng so quickly?" Wang Meng put the tea in his hand aside, walked back and forth several times, and then said with a frown.
"Deputy Governor, the intelligence only mentioned Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan, but not the Shu army. Maybe only Yang Jian and..." As he was speaking, Feng Yi seemed to have thought of something in the middle, and said dryly. The ground just stopped itself abruptly.
"It's indeed wrong!" After a moment, Feng Yi said solemnly, but the sadness on his face became more and more gloomy.
"Don't worry, Gongsun. If General Feng Mao makes any mistakes, after I defeat Shu, I will take Yang Jian's family and bury him with my Jin army son!" Li Jing knew what Feng Yi was worried about, so he could only promise him.
To be fair, Feng Yi's sacrifice for the Jin army was indeed great enough. Two of the four brothers were gone, and now the youngest Feng Mao was also in danger. The family was full of loyalties, nothing more than that. Between the governor and the deputy governor Among level one, Feng Yi is unique.
Meng Tian, Yue Fei, Xue Rengui, Li Jing, Bai Qi, Chang Yuchun, Wei Qing, Su Dingfang, Li Keyong, Yang Xuangan, among these first-level governors and deputy governors, which one has lost so many brothers in a row like Feng Yi!
Therefore, Li Jing made such a promise, or in other words, made such a promise on behalf of Li Xiang.
The ministers have sacrificed themselves so much for the monarch, how can the monarch not treat the ministers kindly? Otherwise, how can the team continue to lead this team if it depresses people's hearts.
However, within the scope of Li Jing's rights, he could only promise so much. The rest was not what Li Jing was qualified to promise, and that was Li Xiang's business.
Feng Yi was also a talented general. Otherwise, he would not have become the deputy governor of a state. Although he was a step behind Li Jing and Wang Meng, he also discovered some of the problems.
Even they don't know how many troops Geng Yan still has, and it's even less likely that they know how many troops there are in Shuzhong. In Shuzhong, they can only rely on guesswork.
In this way, with the small strength of the Shu army in Nanzheng, they simply did not dare to send out troops to deal with Geng Yan. Otherwise, if there is a bad move, Nanzheng, which is the seat of Hanzhong governance, will definitely risk falling.
. This risk is absolutely unaffordable given the current situation in Hanzhong.
Therefore, it is very possible that Yang Jian and others brought their troops to support Nanzheng.
Li Jing, Wang Meng, and Feng Yi knew very well that the men under Tuo Tuo were infantry, and with the speed of the infantry, they would never be able to support Yang Jian and others to support Nanzheng in such a short time.
It is impossible for infantry to reach Nanzheng in such a short time, but it is possible for cavalry to do so.
After conquering the Southern Barbarians, Liu Che had his own source of war horses. After all, Yunnan horses are horses too! Therefore, Liu Che had an organized cavalry unit.
However, the main cavalry units under Liu Che were basically concentrated in Jiaozhou. After all, before this, the relationship between Liu Che and Zhu Yuanzhang had been in tension and conflict. Placing the cavalry in Jiaozhou could better play their role.
If Yang Jian really led his troops back to aid at this time, and if they were cavalry, wouldn't it mean that some or even all of Liu Che's cavalry in Jiaozhou had already returned to Yizhou to aid?
This is definitely not good news for the Jin army!
Liu Che's cavalry has probably returned to Yizhou and even reached Hanzhong. But they have not received any news. What does this mean? This means that the other party is holding back bad news!
Maybe, this cavalry unit is hiding somewhere now, deliberately trying to plot against them!
Of course, for Li Jing and others, the most critical issue now is the safety of Geng Yan's troops. For them, the most uncomfortable thing is that they already know that the troops will be in great danger, but...
Neither Li Jing's side nor Wang Jian's side can provide them with strong support now.
If the roadblocks in front of them are not removed, their soldiers and horses will not be able to get in there at all.
However, Li Jing was really not sure whether Geng Yan and the others could solve this crisis!
"Send the order, the army will continue to advance, and we must defeat the enemy in the shortest possible time!" Li Jing raised his hand and said decisively.
The only way for the troops to rescue Geng Yan was to attack by force and remove the obstacle in front of them. If the obstacle was gone, it would be equivalent to Hanzhong falling directly into their hands.
By that time, Yang Jian and Shen Luoyan may no longer have the intention to deal with Geng Yan and the others.
Although it is difficult to do this, it is indeed the only way at present. Even if it is difficult, we still have to try. If we don't try, then Geng Yan and the others may have to rely on themselves this time. .
