Tangcang Town discovered the grain of the Shu army garrison. After hearing the news, Guo Shao gave the command of the vanguard to Li Chuyun and personally rode his horse to Tangcang Town.

Halfway through the First Army Du Yuhou, he ordered him to lead four commanders to leave Huanghua Valley and return to Weiwu City.

To the southwest of Tangcang Town, with the back of the mountains facing the ancient road, there is a large camp of Shu Army, with many houses inside; at this time, all the officials and generals left behind had surrendered.

Guo Shao, Wang Zhang, Luo Yanhuan and others rode horses and waded straight through the river valley, and arrived at the granary where troops had been guarded.

Guo Shao couldn't wait and strode into a house, and saw seven or eight cylindrical stockpiles standing inside, surrounded by dense bamboo strips.

Guo Shao pulled out the obstacle knife, stabbed it from the middle with a casual knife, and then pulled it to the side.

Suddenly the bamboo strips were torn, revealing the sack inside, and the wheat flowed out. Guo Shao reached out to catch it, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and turned around and said: How much is this granary, how much grain is there in total.

An official from Shu hurriedly stepped forward and bent down and said, "If you go back to the general, Tangcang Town will store 20,000 hu of grain, which can be supplied to Tangcang's Zuojun and civilians for more than one month."

Guo Shao's eyes shone, his face turned red, and he couldn't help but feel excited... Just because there was a shortage of food, these foods were really a timely help!

The official hurriedly said: The guard general Wang Jian found that the Zhou army had entered the valley entrance and thought that the Tang Cang army had been defeated after leaving the mountain, so he ordered the low-level officer to burn the granary.The humble servant gave him a plan to earn him into the house and took the ambush, thus saving the food.

You did a good job.Guo Shao said casually.

Twenty thousand hu!

There is only such a number in his mind for the time being.

The Shu army in Tangcang Town had to supply rations for the army and the people, but Guo Shao would not consider supporting prisoners and Shu people... It was already a benevolence and righteousness without robbing soldiers and massacre.

The prisoners were escorted directly from the Qinling Mountains and threw the bags to Wang Jing.

Guo Shao only needs to consider the military's rations, so that the soldiers can continue to fight when they are full.

Since the Tang Dynasty, ten buckets of one hukou are equivalent to stones.Guo Shao had a slight plan in his mind that supplying 6,000 infantry could theoretically exceed one hundred days.

hey-hey.Guo Shao still laughed out loud.

Seeing this, Wang Zhang, Luo Yanhuan and others smiled. Guo Shao turned around and slapped Luo Yanhuan on the shoulder. He looked at Wang Zhang again: Send someone to guard him, let’s take a look at other granaries.

Guo Shao thought to himself: Please let me be intoxicated for a while, and then let me talk about the food in the warehouse full of food.

Now, in front of Shu officials and others, he shouted: Treat the surrendered Shu people well, and the captives will be sent to Fengxiang first.Zuo You, those who have made contributions have recorded it.

Guo Shao swept away the melancholy some time ago.

Although he was calm at that time, he was not at ease after all. Just like when he was studying abroad, his living expenses could only last for ten days, and he was always unable to feel at ease... That kind of panic should be even worse, because a large group of people would ask you what you want to eat, and they could not save it; if you owe the soldiers' belly, the soldiers would lack efforts in the battle formation.

There is no reason for the warriors to say, and everyone can't tell the truth, but they understand it very well.

For a moment, he walked swaying and his tone of speaking was different.There is no way, Guo Shao doesn’t like to pretend, and he doesn’t have to hold back his happiness.

When he returned to the outside of Weiwu City in the evening, Guo Shao was not panicked when he saw this city.

It doesn’t matter if the Shu army is huddled inside. Anyway, I have food to eat, so I can find a way slowly.

Due to the ups and downs of mood, he suddenly felt relieved from his worries. Guo Shao looked at Weiwu City and even swearing, cursing: Mother’s Wang Huan, let’s see how I can kill you!

Don’t say that sometimes it’s not bad to speak dirty words, but it feels like you’re exhaling bad breath when you say it, it’s light and refreshing.

After hearing this, the generals laughed loudly.

Guo Shao thought for a while and said: Send someone to report the victory to Wang Jieshuai, and then ask him to send troops to follow up.

……

There is no need for Guo Shao to send someone to report the victory, and Wang Jing will know the situation of the battle ahead within two days.The military generals and officials in Fengxiáng Town were all surprised and looked at each other in front of Wang Jing.

Ten days or ten days to win ten thousand?Could it be that the people ahead deliberately exaggerated and the report was untrue?The middle-aged aide who often follows Wang Jing with a puzzled look on his face. Is there such a battle?

The general said: More than 2,000 prisoners were sent back a few days ago. This time, he said that he would defeat 6,000 Shu troops in Huanghuagu and Tangcang Town, and wait for the prisoners to be sent back.There are more than 8,000 living people just seeing. What's wrong with one person winning a total of ten thousand people?

Wang Jing said calmly: The forward fights smoothly, and the entire Western Expedition Army has been relieved. This is not a bad thing.I thought that I could mobilize Fengxiáng Town troops to enter Chencang Road to reinforce, hand over Weiwu City and Fengzhou City to us, and ordered Guo Shao's troops to drive directly to Guzhen.

The staff suddenly said: As long as you possess Guzhen, you can threaten the throat of Qingniling and block the Shu army from going north to reinforce, and Qin and Feng become turtles in the jar!

Wang Jingdao: Since that's the case, I will immediately order.He went to the Kunshu Department to Sanguan Pass and walked to Qinling Road to reach Qinzhou.Part of the Fengxiáng Army followed the Wei River to Qinzhou; the other part went to Chencang Road, left Sanguan, and replaced the vanguard army to attack Weiwu City and Fengzhou.The vanguard of Guo Shao's troops entered Guzhen and quickly blocked the throat of the Shu army!The Western Expedition Army attacked the entire line and caught it off guard!

The generals admired him and sighed that Wang Jieshuai was planning and a battle between chatting and laughing.

...But the envoy of the Guest Province, Zan Jurun, did not think so. He now believes that the person who decided the battle was the forward Hu Jie Army Guo Shao. Although he was risky, he caught the fighter jets well and had no bad luck.

The vanguard swept the main forces of Fengzhou in ten days, and quickly seized 20,000 hu of food and grass, which fundamentally made up for the lack of poor food and grass preparation in the early stage of the Western Expedition Army.

Zan Jurun believed that he did not favor one side, but just reported in a proper manner.He wrote a memorial first, and then immediately prepared to set off and go to the front line to see it in person.

Zan Jurun paced back and forth a few steps in the house, feeling that the officials and the Privy Council would celebrate happily during this victory, but his memorial was too peaceful and had no prominent impact at all.

Of course, I hurried to the desk, picked up the brush and rewrite the end, using the lyrical and sighing technique of Taishi Gong, predicting that the Qin Dynasty would be regained like the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves, and the sun would be defeated!

Then he said that the emperor had a broad mind and found a breakthrough to unify the world; he also praised the Prime Minister of the Privy Council for his good planning and recommended talents appropriately.

There are wise rulers in the country and loyal and brave generals under it, which is beyond the present.

Zan Jurun finished writing quickly in one breath and read it himself, and he felt that his writing was brilliant and his words were bold.

It was very satisfied at the moment. While busy copying, I called my followers to come in and told me: When I finish writing the good news, I will immediately deliver it to Tokyo in a fast horse of 600 miles!
