Chapter Four Hundred and Ninety Two: The Quartet Saves Shu

Chapter 492: All directions to save Shu

Although the Tianwu Guard, who guarded Shuzhong Road, was not as strong as the Qin army in terms of combat power, with Li Jing, and the dangerous terrain of Bashu, as long as it was not broken by the Qin army at the beginning, there was no problem to defend it. However, the 200,000 Qin troops still made Deng Sheng a little worried, so he asked Yue Fei: "Yue Qing, how long can reinforcements from all walks of life arrive at Shuzhong Road as fast as possible?"

Yue Fei thought carefully in his mind and said, "Return to the king, the Longwu Guard can arrive in Shu by land, and it can arrive within fifteen days at the earliest. The Jinwu Guard enters Shu by water, because he has to wait for the support of the Noori Guard, so it will take as fast as twenty days. As for Wudang Guard, because he is far away in Nanzhong, Wancheng's orders are transmitted to Nanzhong, even if it is a fast horse and a rush, it will take ten days to reach Wudang Guard. Even if Wudang Guard sends troops at the fastest speed, it will take more than twenty days to arrive at the front line."

The fastest Dragon Martial Guard will take fifteen days, which made Deng Sheng feel a little cold. On the fifteenth day, there is too much variables in Shuzhong Dao. If you get news before the Qin army sent troops, with the terrain of Shuzhong Dao, 50,000 Tianwu Guards will defend with all their might. Not to mention fifteen days, even fifteen months will not be a problem. But now, Deng Sheng can only hope that Li Jing can block the first wave of Qin's offensive. As long as the first wave is blocked, it will be much easier to fight later.

"Yue Qing, the General General's Office immediately issued an order, ordering Longwu Guards, Jinwu Guards, and Wudang Guards to enter Shu as quickly as possible to rescue them. At the same time, ordering General Chang Yuchun of the Cavalry to enter Shu to coordinate the overall situation, and also transfer the Shenwu Guards to Shangyong and Yongping Guards to take over the defense of Wuguan. However, considering that Longwu Guards had to set out into Shu as soon as possible to receive the military order, they had no time to hand over with Yongping Guards. They ordered the General Qin Lie of Longxiang Guards to lead Longxiang Guards to rush to Wuguan as quickly as possible and temporarily take over Wuguan until Yongping Guards arrive!" Deng Sheng nodded, said, and then issued an order.

In addition to mobilizing troops, Deng Sheng also sent Chang Yuchun to Sichuan to coordinate the overall situation. After all, both Li Jing, Li Xiucheng, Deng Qiang and Deng Zhong are equal in status. Except for Deng Zhong, a junior, who may have a low voice, it is not appropriate for anyone to appoint any major general. Therefore, Deng Sheng needs to send one person to coordinate the overall situation. There are only three people in the entire Deng State who are qualified. One is the general of the dynasty, Yue Fei, and the other is Chang Yuchun and Yang Yanzhao, second only to Yue Fei. The other is Han Qing, who is as famous as Yue Fei, is already old, and the other is that as a surrendered general of Qi State, he has a low prestige and cannot be suppressed.

As for why it is Chang Yuchun instead of Yue Fei or Yang Yanzhao, it is very simple. Yue Fei needs to stay in Wancheng and go to the north to take charge of the overall situation at any time. For the arrogant soldiers and generals in the north, no one can control them except Yue Fei. Even Chang Yuchun and Yang Yanzhao cannot do it. Only Yue Fei can. Yang Yanzhao has always been positioned as a guardian. In addition, Yang Yanzhao has a good temper. If there is a conflict between the guards, it will be difficult for Yang Yanzhao to suppress them, so it can only be Chang Yuchun. Although from the data point of view, Chang Yuchun is not as good as Bai Qi, some things cannot be explained by the data, and the gap between the two is not particularly large. Even if they can't win head-on, Chang Yuchun can still defend them. Besides, there is also a Li Jing in Shuzhong Road.

"Here! But king, do you need to send someone to Shu to pass the order to Li Jing?" Yue Fei responded first, and Chang Yuchun, who was beside him, nodded, but then Yue Fei asked if it was necessary to send someone to Shu to talk to Li Jing now, although there was no time at all.

Deng Sheng thought for a while and said, "According to the time of the secret report, the Qin army has gathered in Hanzhong at this moment and will launch an attack on Jiameng Pass at any time. I am afraid that the messenger of Wancheng has already launched an attack before he set foot on the land of Shuzhong Road. However, it is better to send someone to see Li Jing and tell Li Jing about the rescue plan of the court to stabilize the morale of the army. In addition, tell Li Jing not to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, focus on preserving strength. As long as the Qin army's offensive can be curbed, some unnecessary places can be given up. As long as he can hold on until the reinforcements arrive, it will be a great achievement."

"Here!" Yue Fei nodded and responded. It is true that it is unrealistic to expect Li Jing to be able to use his weak forces to defend all places when the Qin army was unexpectedly. Giving up some unnecessary places and protecting his strength and dealing with the Qin army is the best way to do it.

After deciding the plan to seek help, the generals of the General Governor's Office, headed by Yue Fei, returned to the official office as soon as possible. Soon, Wancheng sent messengers everywhere and sent orders to all directions. The one who went to Wuguan to send orders to Longwu Guard was not the messenger, but the 50,000 Longxiang Guards led by Qin Lie. As soon as he received the military order, Qin Lie assembled the entire army and rushed to Wuguan without stopping, and arrived at Wuguan in less than a day.

General Li Xiucheng, the general of the Longwu Guard in Wu Pass, was very surprised to see the sudden appearance of the Longxiang Guard. The Longxiang Guard is one of the only two elite cavalry guards in Deng State, and it is also the longest-standing and most elite cavalry guard. Generally speaking, if it were not for a war, they would not be dispatched. Now that they suddenly came to Wu Pass, would Deng State have any major moves? But why can't they hear any sound in advance?

With a lot of questions, Li Xiucheng came to Qin Lie and asked Qin Lie: "General Qin, you suddenly led the Longxiang Guard to here, but what's the point?"

Qin Lie nodded, then sighed, and said, "General Li doesn't know anything. The Qin army raided Shuzhong Road. In order to rescue Shuzhong Road as quickly as possible, the General General Governor's Office ordered General Li's Longwu Guard to immediately enter Shu to support him. In addition, he ordered him to lead the Longxiang Guard to temporarily take over the defense of Wuguan and wait for Yongping Guard to hand over. This is the military order signed by General Yue Fei himself. General Li is asked to take a look." After that, he handed the military order from General General General brought from Wancheng to Li Xiucheng.

Li Xiucheng took the military order and opened it. It was indeed the military order of the General Governor's Office, with Yue Fei's official seal and autograph. Now Li Xiucheng's question was finally relieved, but his heart was soon ignited with blood. Damn, he can finally do a good job. Since he fought for the tiger's mouth to seize food, the Longwu Guard has been staying in Wuguan and has never been to the battlefield again. After so many years, Li Xiucheng feels that he is about to rust. Now that he is ready, he can finally do a big game and vent some of the depression he has suffered over the years.

"Come, come and play drums and gather generals!" Li Xiucheng put away his military orders, then ordered the drums and gather generals, and then said to Qin Lie: "The military orders of the General's General's Office have been received. The Longwu Guard will soon enter Shu. Now please ask General Qin to follow him to the Central Army tent and hand over the defense."

"Okay, General Li!" Qin Lie nodded and said, because the situation was serious and time was tight. Qin Lie didn't say much nonsense.

"Dong!Dong!Dong!" The drums of the Dragon Martial Guard gathered together sounded, and the sound of the drums instantly spread throughout the entire military camp. The generals of the Dragon Martial Guard, who were busy with their own affairs, rushed to the Central Army's tent as fast as possible. When they arrived at the Central Army's tent, they found that not only Li Xiucheng, but also Qin Lie and Longxiang Guard generals were inside, which made them feel very strange.

Murong Jun, one of the four generals of Longwu Guard, asked in confusion: "General, why are you playing drums and gathering generals?" Everyone else looked at Li Xiucheng with confusion.

Li Xiucheng calmly signaled everyone to sit down, and then said, "A few days ago, the imperial court received a secret report that the Qin army gathered in Hanzhong on a large scale, trying to plot against our Shuzhong Road. The General Governor's Office had an order to order our Longwu Guard to enter Shu to reinforce and resist the Qin army. As for the Longxiang Guard, it was coming to take over the defense of Wuguan."

"Really!" Murong Jun, Gao Shun, Huang Deng, and Dian Wei all showed their eyes, except for their strong fighting spirit. After all, the Long Wu Guard had not been dispatched for so many years, and they had already been suffocated. Now they can finally move, and the powerful Qin army finally had a place to use their skills.

Only the military advisor Kuai Li looked solemn. Shuzhongdao has 50,000 Tianwu Guards guarded the city all year round. If the Qin army attacked the side troops, the Tianwu Guards themselves could solve it themselves. There was no need to mobilize troops from other places. Now Wancheng actually brought the Longwu Guards who guarded Wu Pass for many years into Shu for rescue. I am afraid that the Qin army will have many people coming this time.

"General, is the Qin army very disturbing this time?" Kuai Li said with a frown.

Li Xiucheng looked at Qin Lie with a bitter face and said, "It's not just a big deal. The Qin army dispatched nearly 200,000 troops this time. According to General Yue Fei's inference, the chief general of the Qin army was Bai Qi, the number one general of Qin, so this time it was a tough battle and it was not easy to fight." Li Xiucheng was also a little upset. Although he was eager to go to the battlefield, his mood was different from Bai Qi. As the saying goes, the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, Bai Qi's reputation was too great. Moreover, Li Xiucheng had heard Yue Fei say that even if he was not very sure of Bai Qi, Li Xiucheng did not think he had Yue Fei's strong position.

"The Qin army has 200,000 people? And the commander is Bai Qi? Then this time we should have more than our Longwu Guards." Kuai Li said. Since the Qin army has 200,000, and under Bai Qi's leadership, it is difficult to stop it with the Longwu Guard and the Tianwu Guard. There should be other troops entering Shu together.

Li Xiucheng nodded and said, "That's right, according to the news brought by General Qin from Wancheng, in addition to our Longwu Guard, there are also Jinwu Guards in Jingnan Road and Wudang Guards in Nanzhong Road. However, our Longwu Guards first entered Shu. In addition, the commander of the army who entered Shu this time was Chang Yuchun, the cavalry general, and all the actions of the army were coordinated by General Chang."

"Then General, I wonder when our army will set off?" After solving the doubts in his heart, Kuai Li asked when he would set off.

"Immediately, after Longxiang Guard took over the defense of Wuguan, our army immediately set out into Shu. The generals immediately gathered their troops. Two hours later, the army set out into Shu!" Li Xiucheng said, time was tight, and the military orders of the General's Office were to set out as soon as possible, so Li Xiucheng did not dare to delay for a moment. He directly used two hours to hand over the defense and gathered troops, and then set out directly in two hours.
