Chapter 869 Dangerous old road, Bank of China camp
Ning Feng knew without even thinking that if the items transported by Wan San Qian were exposed this time, ten heads would not be enough for him to chop off.
"Don't worry, brother, I will never let my work go in vain. Afterwards, I will definitely give you three thousand taels of gold as a thank you!"
After hearing the three thousand taels of gold, Ning Zhi's eyes suddenly opened up.
But Ning Feng almost fainted. Although he loved money, he was not as greedy as his brother. All he was greedy for was sex!
At this time, the more benefits Wan Sanqian gives, the more it proves that this matter is definitely a big deal.
But, can he refuse?
"Just this once!"
"Also, the news about this matter has leaked, so don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ning Feng could only pinch his nose and admit defeat.
"Okay, thank you very much, brother!"
Seeing that Wan Sanqian had achieved his goal, he immediately stopped disturbing Ning Feng's spring night and took Ning Zhi out to continue drinking.
Ning Feng, who was inside the room, gritted his teeth in anger as he watched Wan Sanqian leave.
But looking at the charming figure on the bed, a touch of fiery color disappeared in a flash.
And some things, once they start, they never end.
Not even a few days had passed before Wan Sanqian came to visit me again.
This time, Wan Sanqian asked Ning Feng to detain a message from him.
Just like what Wang Yu and Zhang Bin encountered, due to the population density within the seven dynasties, it was not as easy to hide their whereabouts during the troop attack as it was in Beidi.
Moreover, Zhang Liao's group was on the run, and speed was all that mattered. Of course, there was no time to clear away the traces left by their march along the way.
In the process of collecting herbs, a herb collector accidentally saw the traces left after Zhang Liao's military campaign.
Originally, a low-level citizen might have seen these traces but would not think much of them. However, when he treated these things as a casual chat after dinner, he was overheard by the government officials.
The common people won't think anything of it, but those in the government don't mean they won't be wary.
The county magistrate did not dare to neglect after receiving the news. He had not received any news recently that troops and horses were passing through their county office. Besides, short distances are good, but if troops and horses are mobilized over long distances, troop carriers should be used.
At that time, troop carriers were used.
Therefore, the county magistrate immediately sent someone to report to the county government office. While further checking with the county government office whether they were soldiers of his own, he also conveniently reported these matters to his superiors.
What Wan Sanqian asked this time was for Ning Feng to suppress this news.
And it is difficult to suppress this kind of thing for a long time. Once something goes wrong, it will be a real big deal.
Of course, Ning Feng was unwilling to agree. In fact, when Wan Sanqian made this request, he immediately slapped the table and fell out.
However, when Wan Sanqian revealed what the last batch of goods he delivered was, Ning Feng suddenly died this time, and fell limply on the big chair behind him as if he had lost all his strength.
If anyone knew about any of the things Wan Sanqian had transported last time, it would be enough to behead him.
Although Ning Feng was extremely angry that Wan Sanqian dared to threaten him again and again, and wanted to cut Wan Sanqian into pieces, but firstly, he couldn't do this. Secondly, after boarding this ship
, if you want to go on, it will be really difficult!
And with Ning Feng helping them suppress this news for the time being, they finally bought Zhang Liaoduo some time. After Shanyang Road received the news that an unknown man had killed Shanyang Road, that
At that time, Zhang Liao had already reached the Zhonghang Mountains.
The most important passage of the Zhongxing Mountains, because the Zhongxing Mountains are not the frontier of Da Cang, but are located on the back of Shanyin. Therefore, Da Cang did not use the terrain to build any difficult and dangerous checkpoints on this passage.
Just like the Tianqi Mountains, a large camp was built here according to the terrain.
These camps are not as strong as the defenses of the checkpoints, but they do not require a lot of manpower and material resources to build like the checkpoints. Moreover, the quality is not enough, so quantity is needed.
If it is really necessary, we only need to set up camps on this long mountain road and according to the difficult terrain. If the continuous camps are united, the defense strength is by no means comparable to that of a single level.
.
As the Zhonghang Mountains are the center of the Zhenbei Army, there is no need to station heavy troops here. Therefore, a fortress was built here according to the terrain, and three thousand troops were stationed.
However, three thousand soldiers and horses may not sound like a lot, but they are stationed in a dangerous place. Even if more soldiers and horses attack, if they persist for a few days, there will basically not be any big problems.
And if something unexpected happens here, it will probably take half a day for nearby reinforcements to arrive.
If the Zhongxing Mountains are accessible through other trails, it will naturally take several months. Even if everything goes well and there is no wind or rain, it will be considered fast if it can be walked down in two or three months.
However, there is a track for troop carriers on this road that the Cang people have spent decades and a lot of manpower and material resources carving out and connecting.
"This is the old story!"
Zhang Liao raised his head and looked at the terrain of the old road, and praised: "This place has high mountains and deep valleys, steep cliffs, and abrupt peaks. It is really a rare place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. With this place, it can be said that one man can guard the pass.
No one can stop it."
"It is said that more than a thousand years ago, Emperor Shenwu led 20,000 people across the old road. It took him three months and half of his troops were reduced on the way before he raided the southern gate of Jiuze Kingdom!" Chu Qingtian sighed.
Zhang Liao's next task here was very heavy. Since his troops could not continue to lean, Wang Yu could only lean more on the generals. Not only did he send out Chu Qingtian, a high-level god-level general, but he also
The four powerful generals Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were temporarily commanded by Zhang Liao.
"General Wen Chou, please go and retrieve the grain, grass and various materials hidden in these mountains."
This batch of supplies, which have been hidden for a long time, is the most important for the upcoming battle.
If something went wrong with this batch of supplies, there would be no need to fight the next battle at all. Therefore, the first thing Zhang Liao did after arriving at the Zhonghang Mountains was to let General Wen Chou lead a thousand soldiers and horses to put all these things under control.
under their care.
After this, came the surprise attack on Zhongxingshan Dazhai.
