Chapter 777 Closing Operation
Huju?
Isn't this a suicide attempt?
Wei San asked: "You read that right?"
"I'll wait and confirm again."
"What does this caravan sell?" Yan Yu asked with narrowed eyes.
"food."
"Let's see if there are many caravans going to Huju recently?" Yan Yu ordered.
"Got the order!"
Wei San instantly understood what she meant.
"Do you think the Xizhou Army will pretend to be a businessman and sneak in?"
"It's very possible." Yan Yu silently thought about the possible food transportation route of the Xizhou Army.
Caravans must be inspected all the way through the customs.
Documentary documents can be faked, but the goods that can be sold, namely food, cannot be faked.
It is impossible to have all the food. At least a small part of it must be real food, so that it can successfully pass the inspection at the borders of each city gate.
Such a team is either big or small. If it is too big, it will attract too much attention. Huju has been actively purchasing food. There is no big city in Guanzhou that is not short of food. If it is small, it will not be able to sneak in too many people and it will not be effective. .
Therefore, if the Xizhou response team enters Guanzhou in this way, the number of grain selling teams will definitely increase in recent days.
"Report! There are indeed many food caravans, either going to Yongning or to Huju."
"A grain transport convoy has at least a hundred people mixed in, as well as horses. It is inconspicuous to pull the cart, and it is easy to hide weapons." A glint flashed in Yan Yu's eyes: "Such a lot of effort, just for the sake of support Prince Qi’s concubine, mother and son?”
"They want to..." Wei San thought of a possibility.
“Bold assumptions and careful verification.”
Yan Yu took out the map.
Wei San quickly looked over.
Every time he saw Xiaoer's map, he couldn't help but sigh, it was so detailed!
"If you want to come to our Guanzhou from Xizhou, you can only pass through Huju, Gufeng, and Leshan Prefecture. It is impossible to enter from Huju. We are near Gufeng City now. We want to know if they suddenly appeared and asked people to go to Guanzhou. Just ask Feng County Government."
Yan Yu called Sitie to come and explain to him. Sitie nodded to express his understanding and immediately rode away.
"The most likely Leshan Prefecture is still under the prince's rule for a short period of time. He is still the same official as before. We only sent troops to suppress bandits and did not interfere with other things. Half of Leshan Prefecture is mountains, and our defense at the junction is not enough." Yan Yu I also understand that this is an unsolvable problem.
"Mountain roads are difficult to walk, especially for grain transport convoys. Walking is even more difficult and time-consuming," Wei San said.
"Not bad." Yan Yu's fingers traced from Xizhou to Gufeng where they are now.
"Divide into small teams and choose different routes, but what remains the same is that they will always gather at a certain point, and you can tell one or two things from the direction they are traveling."
Yan Yu took out the charcoal pen he had with him and drew lines directly on the map.
But Wei San was heartbroken.
But he knew the importance, and this was not the time to feel sorry for the map.
Yan Yu's team will not move forward for the time being and rest in place.
Messengers came and went.
Through continuous message aggregation.
The thin lines left by the charcoal on the map gradually converged towards a point.
"Are they really going to Huju?"
Sitie returned and brought a reply from the Yamen Master of Gufeng County.
Master is a meticulous person.
A detailed search was made of all the grain teams that had recently visited Gufeng.
What Yan Yu wants to know is which government seal these grain teams had before they passed through Gufeng City, or in other words, before entering Guanzhou.
In Linhai Prefecture, we need to check the port to stop the boat, so let it go first.
No more and no less from Leshan Prefecture.
Qishan Mansion!
Yan Yu was amused.
There was a drought in Qishan Prefecture last year, and it will be another drought this year. Will the food supply exceed Qishan Prefecture? Which grain merchant got kicked in the head by a donkey?
Yan Yu probably guessed that it was probably because the management of Qishan Mansion was more chaotic and difficult to verify.
"They all came from somewhere, and no convoy appeared out of thin air near Gufeng. This just shows that they entered the country from Leshan Prefecture."
Yan Yu drew another straight line on the map.
"Since the end point is Huju, starting from Xizhou, we must avoid these mountains that cannot be passed by the convoy. The only way we can take is these few roads, and we exclude the places where Gu Feng's city guards are stationed, and those who transported coal last winter. Those are the two places.”
"Wei San, send a message to Wei Si and Wei Liu, asking them to lead their troops to block here and here. If they encounter a convoy, whether it is transporting food or something else, they will capture it. If they resist, kill them!"
"Got the order!"
Yan Yu thought for a while and felt that he still needed to add one more sentence.
"You know how to clean a battlefield, right?"
Last hit and erase all traces.
"I know." Wei San said.
The people in Xiaoan Village are all fools of the Yan family.
Everything the Yan family does is good.
The outstanding achievements of General Yan and Little General Yan have been spread countless times.
Go to Xiaoanying and ask if anyone has heard of it.
Even the people who took refuge in Xizhou have more or less heard about the achievements of the Yan family's generals.
The Wei brothers were born as generals, and they were among the best in various training results in Xiao'an camp. When they were divided into teams, their performance was even more outstanding. The boy scouts had Yan Yu as the leader, and the others were not convinced at all, and they even shook her little foundation. .
Among them, the Wei brothers learned a lot about how to clean the battlefield.
"Let Wei Xiaoqi start. His five hundred people will have no problem eating the food team with Prince Qi's concubine, mother and son."
"Let's go here." Yan Yu pointed to a point on the map.
"I feel like there will be big fish here."
"Operation closing the net, begin!"
…
Ding Jiao personally led the team across the border.
There are many generals in Xizhou. He is young and has little experience. Why can he hold a high position and be valued by the prince?
It is because he and the prince grew up together!
It is because of the friendship between him and the prince when they were young.
Although some people suggest that the prince give up the prince and no longer be controlled by Guanzhou.
But Ding Jiao knows that in the prince's heart, the prince's status is much higher than other princes.
Not only is it the status of a legitimate son, the prince has been famous in Beijing for many years, and he is good at dancing with long sleeves. I don't know how many people he has helped the prince to win over secretly, making him a guest of honor, associating with dignitaries in the court, spending money like water, and supporting talented people...
The prince remembers every single thing.
Without the prince, there would be no good situation in Xizhou today.
How could the court not know about the private mining in Xizhou without the prince in Beijing to cover it up?
If no one had reported it...
Now it seems that after all these things, only Guanzhou has benefited, and the private mining must have been exposed by Guanzhou.
"How many people have arrived?" Ding Jiao asked.
He made the plan to coordinate with the army inside and outside.
To save the prince, and also to attack Guanzhou in a large-scale way and break through the Huju defense line.
After Huju is broken, enter Yongning, and the two border cities of Longxing and Fengming are out of reach.
Guanzhou will be completely controlled by Xizhou.
This battle will determine the northwest!
"General, more than 1,500 people."
"How can it be so few?" Ding Jiao was dissatisfied.
"Respect the general's order, 30% of the grain, 70% of the sand, the sand is very heavy, so..."
"Are they all stupid? Won't they throw away the sandbags after the grain is abundant?" Ding Jiao looked at him.
He knew that these wooden heads were inflexible and did such a stupid thing without a word of explanation.
