Chapter 502

Chapter 5 and Three: No Guard Comes to Help
In the Governor's Mansion in Chengdu, Zhuge Liang hosted a banquet to come from afar, and the Wudang guards who were about to go north to Jianshan for reinforcements would meet the wind. After drinking for three rounds, Deng Zhong put down the wine glass in his hand and asked Zhuge Liang: "Zhuge Governor, I Wudang Wei Feng went north to reinforce under the orders of the Great King and the General’s Dudufu. I don’t know what’s going on at the front line now? I’d like to ask Zhuge Inspector to explain in detail.”

Nanzhong Road is located in the south of Shuzhong Road, and the road is difficult, so the information is received slowly. Up to now, Deng Zhong still doesn't know the news that Jiameng Pass was lost and Tianwuwei retreated to Jianshan.

"Ah..." Zhuge Liang sighed, and said, "General Deng didn't know something. More than a month ago, with the help of the internal response, the Qin army, with the help of the internal response, cooperated with the internal and external, and stewed the Jiameng Pass without any effort. General Li Jing made a decisive decision and retreated to Jianshan, which restrained the offensive of the Qin army, and now our army is fighting fiercely with the Qin army at Jianshan."

"What! Is Jiameng pass lost?" Suddenly hearing that Jiameng pass was lost, Wudang guards lost their composure. They had heard of the dangers of Jiameng pass. Chang Yuchun had reached an agreement with the Qin army back then. Qin Jun was forced to give up, but such a grand pass was easily captured by Qin Jun.

Zhuge Liang nodded helplessly, and said: "Although this is a bit unacceptable, it is the truth. When I heard it at first, I couldn't believe it, but all this came from the mouth of General Li Jing. I can't tolerate it." The official doesn't believe it."

"This is a little troublesome. With the strength of our army, it is not difficult to defeat the Qin army, but it is not so easy to take back Jiameng Pass." Wudang Guard Master Su Yun said with a frown.

With the strength of Deng Jun, in a place like Bashu, even if he confronts the capable Qin Army, he can win the battle, but even if the Qin Army is defeated, he can still firmly control Jiameng Pass, which is easy to attack and difficult to attack. The defense is dangerous. The Qin army only needs a few thousand troops to resist the tens of thousands of Deng troops. If the Jiameng Pass of the gateway falls into the hands of the Qin army, there will be no peace in the middle of Shu.

"I don't know what's going on with the current battle at Jianshan? Can the Tianwu Guards hold on?" Deng Zhong asked again. Now that Jiameng Pass has been lost, how to get it back is a matter for the future, and the most important thing now. It is to defend the sword mountain and repel the Qin army.

Zhuge Liang said: "The Qin army stormed the Jianshan defense line for several days. Although it was very ferocious, under the desperate resistance of General Li Jing and the Tianwu Guards, they all returned without success. The current Jianshan defense line is still stable. In addition, the chief general of the Qin army is Bai Qi, the No. , and at the same time inform this officer, if General Deng and Wudangwei arrive, please go north quickly for reinforcements."

"The Qin army is so fierce, and the defense line of Jianshan is in danger. It seems that we can't stay in Chengdu any longer. I also ask Zhuge Inspector to prepare the necessary food and supplies for our army as soon as possible, so that our army can go north to Jianshan as soon as possible." Deng Zhong thought After thinking about it, he said, although Deng Zhong didn't have much contact with Li Jing, they were both the generals of the Sixteenth Guards, and they had arrogance with each other. It means that Jianshan's situation is very urgent, and there is a danger of collapse at any time, so Wudangwei can't stay in Chengdu any longer.

Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "That's natural. Since I received the imperial edict, I have gathered all the power of the middle way of Shu and hoarded a batch of food and supplies. With the background of governing the Middle Road of Shu for many years, the money and food hoarded in Chengdu is enough to support the army for several years, so please rest assured, the money and food will definitely not be a problem.”

Deng Guobie doesn't have much confidence, but he has the most confidence in money and food, and occupies the most extensive land in the world. Although the initial output is not as good as that of Hebei and the Central Plains occupied by Zhao Guo, after years of governance by Deng Guojun and his ministers, coupled with Deng From the various technologies obtained from the system, Jingxiang and Jiangdong, the core areas of Deng State, are no less prosperous than Hebei and Central Plains, and Bashu has been the granary since ancient times. The accumulation of Shu State for a hundred years has fallen into the hands of Deng State. There is so much food, even if Qin and Zhao add up, it is not enough for Deng Guo to fight. After all, Hebei, the Central Plains, and Guanzhong have been war-torn, especially the Central Plains. Most of the wars in the past 20 years have occurred in the Central Plains, and the Central Plains have been beaten It was riddled with holes.

"That's good!" Deng Zhong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that money and food were not a problem, and said, "In this case, the general will rest in Chengdu for two days, and then go north to Jianshan in two days. In addition, I also invite Zhuge The governor sent people to Jianshan to inform General Li Jing and Tianwuwei of the news, so as to stabilize the morale of the army."

Although the situation in Jianshan is very critical, it is not too late in the past two days. Wudang Weiyuan went north, and the soldiers were already exhausted. Decided to take a break in Chengdu before going north.

"Don't worry, General Deng, I know what to do." Zhuge Liang nodded and said.

Two days later, the whole army of Wudangwei set off from Chengdu and marched towards Jianshan Mountain, and Zhuge Liang saw him off in person.

At the same time, in Jianshan Deng Jun's camp, as the Qin army became more and more crazy to attack, it became more and more difficult for Tianwuwei to resist. In just a few days, there were more than [-] casualties. , Tianwuwei's [-] elites have already been wiped out by nearly half. Of course, the Qin army is not easy, but the strength of the Qin army is several times that of Tianwuwei, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, so Deng Jun gradually fell into a disadvantage up.

However, the news from Chengdu gave Tianwuwei a shot in the arm. In the large tent of the Chinese army, Li Jing smiled and said to the generals: "Everyone, the governor of Chengdu Zhuge sent a message that the Wudangwei of Nanzhong Road has arrived in Chengdu. We can go north for reinforcements in a few days, and as soon as Wudangwei arrives, the Jianshan line of defense will become even more impregnable."

"General, are you serious?" All the generals suddenly heard the good news, and they were all overjoyed. These days, they have been so miserable that they were forced to hold on, accepting the bombing attacks from the Qin army every day. If it weren't for these generals like them to take the lead in killing the enemy, Tianwuwei would have collapsed a long time ago. Now it's all right, Wudangwei is finally coming. With this [-] fresh troops, they are confident that they will completely reject the Qin army outside the door.

"General, when will Wudangwei arrive?" Jia Xu asked. It is indeed good news that Wudangwei is coming soon, but the question is when will Wudangwei arrive?
Li Jing said: "According to the news from Zhuge Inspector, Wudangwei is exhausted because of the journey northward, so he needs to rest in Chengdu for two days before sending troops to the north. According to the calculation of time, Wudangwei may have left Chengdu by this time. , is on the way to Jianshan, and then calculated according to the footsteps, it will take three days at least, and five days at most, and there will be no guards to arrive."

"Then don't worry." For three to five days, Tianwuwei could still hold on with his strength, which made the generals of Tianwuwei, whose hearts were hanging in the air, finally feel relieved.

"But everyone, don't take it lightly. As our army's reinforcements get closer, the Qin army's offensive will become more and more fierce. If you are not careful, you will fall short. So, you generals, you have to work hard. Don't let the other brother guards see the joke." Seeing that everyone was a little relaxed, Li Jing reminded them.

"Don't worry, the general, the last general will definitely put up all his energy and block the Qin army until the arrival of the Wudangwei!" Everyone stood up and clapped their hands in a loud reply.

In the next few days, the offensive of the Qin army was as expected by Li Jing, and it became more and more fierce. However, Tianwuwei, who was not far from the reinforcements, had no scruples and put all his strength on the table without any reservations. Sensing the changes in Tianwuwei, Bai Qi, who was supervising the battle in the rear, also frowned deeply.

"In the past few days, Deng Jun's resistance has become stronger and stronger. Looking at this posture, it seems that he has no reservations. What happened to make Deng Jun have such a change?" Bai Qi looked at the fierce battle on the sword mountain. Said the generals of the Deng and Qin armies.

"Maybe it's because Li Jing feels that the reinforcements are coming, so there is no need to hold back any more." Bai Chen thought for a while and said, Deng Jun's resistance in the past few days was all concealed, as long as he can block it, he will never It is easy to increase troops, after all, Deng Jun has limited strength, but these few days have been uncharacteristically, and all the troops have been used. Except that the reinforcements are coming, Bai Chen really can't think of any reason for Deng Jun to be like this .

"Impossible, Chang Yuchun's army has been stopped by Ma Sheng and others, how could it be possible to come to Jianshan in such a short time?" Bai Qi shook his head and said, as long as now, Bai Qi still firmly believes Ma Sheng and others will stop Chang Yuchun's army, so they don't believe that Deng's reinforcements are coming.

"The Taiwei doesn't know. It is said that Deng Guo also has a soldier named Wudangwei in Nanzhong. It was formed by Deng Guo when he destroyed the Yue Kingdom and pacified Shanyue. Although the road is difficult, but it has been so long, it should be here soon." Bai Chen replied, since he decided to conquer Bashu, Bai Chen began to investigate the distribution of Deng's troops, so there is no place for the guards. He also knows.

"So, Li Jing put all the troops on the ground without reservation because the No Guards were approaching?" Bai Qi said in a low voice.

Bai Chen nodded helplessly, and said, "Besides this, I really can't think of any other reason."

"Since this is the case, then the Taiwei will not be able to let Li Jing do what he wants. Pass on the order and strengthen the offensive. We must break through Jianshan before Wudangwei arrives!" Bai Qi said, Deng Guo's sixteen guards, each guard has With [-] elites, if Wudangwei arrives, with this [-] fresh troops, it will be even more difficult for the Qin army to break through Jianshan, so Bai Qi stepped up his attack immediately.

As soon as the Qin army stepped up its offensive, Deng Jun was in a difficult situation. Tianwuwei had already suppressed all the soldiers and horses, and there was no exciting force at all. Even Li Jing personally led troops to fight.

But even so, the Jianshan defense line was also crumbling and almost lost. Li Siwen came to Li Jing and said, "General, the Qin army's offensive is getting more and more fierce. Our army has suffered heavy casualties. If this continues , we can't last long."

Li Jing wiped the blood from his face, and said: "If you can't hold on, you have to hold on. Wudangwei will arrive in two days. As long as we hold on for two days, our army can turn the situation around and tell the soldiers that no matter what You have to stand up no matter what, and when the Qin army is repelled, I will personally write a letter to the king to ask for credit for them, and it will be no problem to seal my wife and son in the future."

"Here!" Li Siwen responded, and went to deliver Li Jing's order. With the temptation to enshrine his wife and son, the morale of Deng Jun's officers and men rose immediately, and the situation gradually stabilized.

After a day of fierce fighting, it was already dusk, but the Qin army did not intend to retreat, which made Li Jing very helpless. Although Li Jing repeatedly emphasized that Wudangwei is coming soon, when will Wudangwei arrive? It's also uncertain, but now that things are up, he can only say this, and he can't let the morale go down.

As night fell, the Qin army still had no intention of retreating. Not to mention the ordinary soldiers in Tianwuwei, even the generals like Li Jing gradually couldn't hold on. At this time, Jia Xu was wearing soft armor and holding a long sword. He stumbled all the way to Li Jing's side, held Li Jing's arms, and said excitedly: "General, Wudangwei has arrived!"

"What!" Li Jing, a little distracted, quickly grabbed Jia Xu and asked excitedly.

Jia Xu nodded fiercely, and said: "Yes, General, Wudangwei has already arrived outside Jianshan Mountain, and is rushing here now, and we will be there in less than half an hour. General, we have help." Already!"

"It's here, it's finally here!" Li Jing's tense nerves suddenly relaxed!
