I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

Guan Xing held his fists but raised his head, looking at Jiang Wan in surprise.

"What about the rations?"

Jiang Wan blinked slightly, "The military adviser didn't mention the rations. Now that the army is short of rations, it would be very lucky for the major general to bring the rations back to the division."

"I'll lead the cavalry, escort the rations, and return to Tianshui!"

After Guan Xing finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

"Don't worry, Major General!" Jiang Wan hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "May I ask how many cavalry the Major General has?"

"Five thousand!"

"Five thousand cavalry..." Jiang Wan frowned.

Five thousand cavalry, I'm afraid it's dangerous!

"What are you worried about, sir?" Guan Xing saw that Jiang Wan hesitated.

"I'm afraid the major general doesn't know that out of the ten people you sent back to deliver the letter, only nine returned to Zhongtianshui with serious injuries!"

"I'm afraid Cao Jun already knew about the fact that you are going to ambush Cao Xiong!"

"What?" Guan Xing looked at him in disbelief.

"Where's General Zhang Bao?" Jiang Wan asked.

"Hey!" Guan Xing said, "General Zhang is returning from a long trek along the mountain trail with less than [-] infantry."

"Less than ten thousand?" Jiang Wan looked at Guan Xing bewilderedly, "Did you fall into an ambush by Cao Jun?"

Guan Xing looked at Jiang Wan, gritted his teeth and said.

"We failed to ambush Cao Jun! Now we just returned from defeat?"

"Ma Canjun asked me to bring the iron cavalry back first, and escort the army rations first, and he will come and finish!"

Jiang Wan looked at Guan Xing's frustrated look!

Sure enough, as Zhuge Liang expected, Zhang Bao and Guan Xing were tricked by Cao Xiong.

Who is Cao Xiong?

It's okay to let Ma Di instruct the two to intercept the military rations.

The Jizhou army who really ambushed Chang'an, isn't that courting death?

Eggs hit rocks!

Touch it to pieces!

Chapter 1650 Three Ways to Escort the Army Food!

Jiang Wan rolled his eyes, and after thinking for a while, he felt that military rations were still important.

After all, the Longxi army is stationed in the border town, and the army rations cannot be delayed for a day!

"Young general, you lead the troops to escort the rations and leave first. I have a plan to ensure that the rations can be escorted to the Longxi army!"

"Sir, ask for instructions!"

Jiang Wan said to Guan Xing, "Young General, there are three ways to return Fufeng to Tianshui and Longxi."

"The first road is to follow the Wei River, go up the river, walk by the river, and return to Tianshui!"

"The second way is to go through the middle of Moyang, go to Tianshui North Road, cross the Weishui River in the south, and return to Tianshui!"

"The third way is to go west to Moyang, detour through Qinchuan, and go straight to Longxi. The general's rations will be delivered directly to General Zhang Fei!"

Jiang Wan instructed Guan Xing, "The general only needs to divide the general's rations into three groups, and the [-] soldiers he brought along and those who stayed behind in the central army's tent should also be divided into three groups to guard the rations separately. It can be shipped to our army."

"Furthermore, the ration soldiers escorting the detour to Qinchuan must change into Wei Jun's clothes until they return to Longxi."

"This method sounds good!" Guan Xing seemed to be caught in a torrent and grabbed a straw, "Thank you, Mr. Guan Xing."

"Major General, hurry up and order!" Jiang Wan saluted Guan Xing, "Major General and I will go all the way together, let's go immediately!"

Guan Xing seemed to be hesitant, so he looked at Jiang Wan and asked, "What about Zhang Bao and Ma Di?"

"Nowadays, there is a shortage of food and generals in the army, and none of them can be lost! Army food can't be lost."

"General Zhang and Ma Su may encounter pursuers on the way back to Tianshui with the army, but it is no problem to bring the remnant army back to Tianshui!"

"There is no need to hesitate, the general, and immediately order the division of troops to bring food back to the division!"

"Yes!"

Guan Xing looked at Jiang Wan firmly, then turned around and went out of the tent to give orders.

Seeing Guan Xing leaving, Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief!

He thought to himself that Guan Xing was easy to talk to.

Since he was able to stay calm in the face of danger and listen to the teachings with an open mind, then the military rations should be able to be sent back.

In Fufeng Mountain.

Ma Su chased Zhang Bao with several thousand remnants of his army. After chasing Zhang Bao for a day, until midnight, he finally caught up with Zhang Bao's remnants.

From time to time, birds and beasts chirped in the dark mountains.

The Chinese army all lit bonfires and ate the dry food accompanying the army.

Zhang Bao and Ma Di ate a cake each, and ate it with cold water.

"Sir, we still have a few days before we can retreat to Wuzhangyuan."

"Two days." Ma Di chewed the hard pancake and said, "Young General, let me join the army. You don't have to call me Mr., let alone call me Mr. Zhuge in front of the military division."

"No! Sir!" Zhang Bao looked at Ma Su in the dark and said, "You are my husband for a day, and you will be my husband for the rest of your life."

"The defeat this time was not due to the wrong strategy of the master, but because the support from the Chang'an Army was too fast..."

Zhang Bao wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything.

"I'm too conceited." Ma Di shook his head and said, "Cao's army is well prepared, I shouldn't provoke Cao Xiong's army on my own."

"Cao Xiong is well versed in the art of war. He is better than me in directing soldiers in battle. This time, I am the one who lost."

Ma Su ate the pancakes in frustration, "When I return to Tianshui City, I will truthfully plead guilty to Army Master Zhuge."

"I also apologize!" Zhang Bao was angrily, "I am the general of the army, and it is my fault to lose troops and generals."

"The general doesn't need to be overly upset. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after the army returns to Tianshui safely."

Ma Di poured himself a sip of water, "Fortunately, the main army is not lost, and there is no shortage of generals."

"Right now, I just hope that General Guan Xing can safely escort the military rations back to Longxi."

Chapter 1651 Don't try to fool me Ma Yunlu!

The evening wind blows through the autumn grass, there is not a single black cloud in the sky, and the stars hang brightly in the sky, their folds glow.

The danger in the valley has been removed.

Cao Xiong's [-] troops also passed through safely.

"My son, in the tens of miles ahead, after crossing the Weishui River, you will arrive at Fufeng County!"

Dianman said to Cao Xiong outside the carriage.

The army is resting and eating by lighting a fire.

Cao Xiong was also in the temporary tent, looking at the map of Xiliang.

"Dianman!"

Cao Xiong is used to marching troops and doing things called Dianman.

Moreover, Dianman seems to be by his side at any time, and he will come whenever he calls!

"Sir!"

Sure enough, Dianman lifted the curtain and walked in from the outside.

"Dianman, five hundred miles ahead is Chencang!"

Cao Xiong pointed to the map and said to Dianman, "Chencang is the only way for the army to go to Tianshui, and the terrain here is low-lying and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Zhuge Liang will definitely send heavy troops to guard it!"

Cao Xiong rested his hands on the edge of the board, "There is a small town fifty miles west of Fufeng, named Hanxing, let Zhao Yun send troops to garrison first, as our front army to take down Chencang."

"In any case, let him persist until the Chinese army arrives!"

"Yes!" Dianman went to deliver the order.

Now, Fufeng has fallen, and he has divided his troops to collect Xinping and Hanping.

The next step is how to capture Chencang and Wuzhangyuan.

This will be the first step for Cao Xiong to win Xiliang!

However, he also knew that Zhuge Liang would never let himself win these places easily.

Zhuge Liang sent his troops out of the mountains, captured Chen Cang, and then captured Tianshui all the way, that is, he detoured from Xiegu and sent troops from Wuzhangyuan.

These two places are the main way for Zhuge Liang's army in Longxi to really connect with the army in Jiangyang.

Sima Yi has already cut off the connection between Jiang Yang and Zhuge Liang at the south of Xiegu.

If Cao Xiong takes Wuzhangyuan again, Zhuge Liang will be completely trapped in Longxi.

Cao Xiong looked at the terrain and almost saw the day of Zhuge Liang's demise.

At this time, Cao Xiong suddenly seemed to remember something.

Ma Yunlu came to Xiliang early.

At that time, the war in Xiliang was not going well, so she came to help her brother Ma Chao.

Now, Ma Yunlu doesn't know what's going on?

The next day, at noon, the sun was shining directly, making people feel tired.

To the south of Qinchuan, on a small road next to the mountain.

A cavalry and soldiers wearing Cao Jun's clothes are escorting a group of army rations to the west.

Ma Yunlu was lying in ambush behind a mountain, watching the grain transport army ahead.

She has been waiting for this army of food for a long time!

It wasn't until some time ago that her scouts finally discovered the enemy's food army, which came out from Fufeng County to the north.

However, by changing into Cao Jun's clothes, he wanted to fool Ma Yunlu.

That Zhuge Liang underestimated her too!

"Hmph! It's these people who starve our army and people in Anding City!"

Ma Yunlu said angrily.

She led the troops to follow the grain transporters all the way.

It wasn't until the grain transporters left Fufeng and became a lone army that Ma Yunlu led his troops to follow slowly.

Her round black eyes stared at the food transport army without blinking.

"When will we rush up and intercept all the rations?"

"Don't worry!" Ma Yunlu glared at Ma Dai and said, "Did you see the turning point ahead?"

Ma Dai followed her gaze to the west and saw the bend in the mountain road.

"You mean, wait for Zhuge Liang's grain transport army to turn around halfway, and then go to intercept the grain?"

"That's right!" Ma Yunlu looked at the troops in front of him, "We must not miss this opportunity, this is a great opportunity for us to regain our military rations and have enough to eat!"
