Chapter 976

After hundreds of years of development, the eight paths of Taihang had not been the case in the spring and autumn and Warring States periods. Today's Fukou pass is not the same as it was hundreds of years ago. Especially around Wu'an County, a large number of fields have been developed, which is enough for tens of thousands of people to live. If Lu Bu sent troops to occupy Wu'an, it would be a disaster for Wei Jun, which means that Wei Jun was always under the front of Lu Bu's army.

Fortunately, today's Lu Bujun has only controlled the Dongyangguan pass on the road to the east of Lu county. No, it should be said that Lu Bujun had already left Dongyangguan several times and entered the territory involving the country, only to find that the eastern section of Fukang has always been under the control of Huangfu Chaobo, and the current relationship between the two families is not bad, so he retreated back, stuck to Dongyangguan, and did not go further east.

However, Huangfu Chaobo knew that the good relationship between his family and LV Bujun might not last long. In this way, the defense of Hu caliber must be upgraded to the specifications of Baijing and Taihang in the south.

This time, Huangfu Chaobo made an inspection tour in the city. He continued to go out of the city to the west, walked several miles westward along the Fukang line, crossed the Qingzhang River, and entered the Taihang Wuzhishan area. After carefully examining the surrounding terrain, Huangfu Chaobo said to Zhu Hao and Zhao Yun, "build a pass here, and set the first defense line of Fukang line here."

Guo Jia nodded again and again and said, "it's feasible. It's really a good place for defense. With the defense here, the East and Wu'an at least don't have to face the enemy coming from the West."

"It's true that two thousand soldiers of fukouguan will be stationed here, and five thousand soldiers of the country will be able to resist Lu Bu's army for a few months without worrying about the occupation of the two cities of Wu'an." Pang Tong also nodded in agreement.

"I'll take orders!"

"The end will take orders!"

Zhu Hao and Zhao Yun bowed to their orders and said,

"please name Guan!" Zhu Hao said again,

"just call Wuzhishan pass!"

"No, please rest assured, the small pass will be built before March next year, and it will be expanded into a medium pass within one year!"

"I will believe that you will live up to the trust of someone!" Huangfu Chaobo patted Zhu Hao on the shoulder and said, "OK, everyone, go back to Yecheng!"

With that, the party turned over and mounted their horses and headed for fukouguan. Two days later, the army escorted Huangfu Chaobo and his party back to Yecheng.

In Yecheng, ten thousand cavalry trod into the city with snowflakes in the sky, but the sky was still gloomy, as if there were black clouds.

In the prefect's mansion in the city, Guo Jia looked at the sky and said to Huangfu Chaobo: "Lord, it seems that there is no sign that the snow is going to stop, and there is a trend that the snow is going to fall more and more. According to a certain calculation, it is estimated that the snow will fall for two days. It seems that the Lord's inspection must be suspended, and it's better to return to Luoyang immediately. If what Jia expected is not bad, the river will probably freeze after the snow. ”

Huangfu Chaobo also looked at the sky with some worry and said: "only in this way, when he planned to complete the inspection of three counties in Hebei Province a year ago, he only completed the inspection of Wei county."

"It doesn't matter. The most important thing in this tour of Hebei is Wei county. It would be very good if we could finish the tour of Wei county a year ago and arrange all the defense." Pang Tong, who was green and red with cold, kept rubbing his hands and shivering;

there were only Huangfu Chaobo, several military strategists and Zhu Haozhao Yun in the house. Everyone knew the plan of sending troops next year, so Pang Tong didn't have so much scruples and said directly;

everyone nodded and agreed, and Huangfu Chaobo knew that he wanted to finish the inspection in Hanoi next year I can't do it. Now it's mid December. If it snows for a few more days, it's likely to freeze as Guo Jia said. At that time, it's difficult for anyone who wants to return to Luoyang.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo said: "Zilong, in your opinion, is the strength of the Dragon camp enough? Of course, if things are going well, the baotao camp can also be called in to support them. " With that, he turned to Pang Tong and said, "you should also consider the arrangement of troops and horses in Wei Prefecture of Hanoi, and how to make the best arrangement."

For a long time, Pang Tong said: "actually, he thought that the current military strength should be enough."

Then he went to the front of the map and talked about his arrangement.

According to the requirements of Huangfu Chaobo, several of the eight passes of Taihang trail, including Fujing, Baijing and Taihang trail, must be garrisoned to prevent Lu Bu's army from sending troops from Shangdang. Therefore, there are four passes to be garrisoned. Facing Lu Bu's division of tiger and wolf, ordinary garrisons must not be able to do so.

Among them, the newly built Wuzhishan pass is ready to garrison 2000 soldiers. Fukou pass is close to Handan, and it's better to have a barracks garrison. In Pang Tong's view, although Handan has one barracks and two garrisons, with a total of 15000 troops, in fact, the defense capability is not enough. So his plan is to garrison another 3000 soldiers in Fukou pass, and Fukou pass will just garrison one school of soldiers, which is the same as Handan Dan supports each other. Mengmengmen pass and tianjingguan have a school garrison, so there is no need to make adjustments.

Huangfu Chaobo thought that there were only four infantry schools in Longxiang camp. If this arrangement was made, there would be three schools stationed in other places, and there would be only one Infantry School in the county and city, which would lead to the shortage of troops in Yecheng camp.Pang Tong thinks that there are three schools of soldiers and soldiers and one school of Xiliang cavalry in Hanoi. It seems too wasteful for these soldiers and horses to be stationed in huaixian county. Therefore, his opinion is that huaixian county is in the hinterland. If tianjingguan and mengmengmengmen pass are not lost, huaixian county can be protected. In this way, Dong Xun, deputy general of baotao camp, will lead the first school of soldiers in huaixian county to coordinate the two passes, while Hua Xiong, the chief general, will lead Xiliang cavalry and two schools of soldiers When you enter dangyin, you can help Wei county to the East and help Hanoi to the west, killing two birds with one stone.

Pang Tong's words brightened everyone's eyes. Huangfu Chaobo also thought that this strategy was feasible, so he agreed to his plan, and immediately decided to stay after the Chinese New Year and ordered it to be implemented. As for the defense and material situation of Yecheng, he was completely relieved that Zhao Yun and Zhu Hao only spent half a day inspecting the barracks and meeting with the officers and soldiers in the army. Then he received a group of officials from a county at the prefect's residence, so that he could return to liyanggang early the next morning and return to Luoyang by water.

Three days later, Huangfu Chaobo's fleet finally arrived at the South Gate wharf of Luoyang. As Guo Jia had expected, the Sizhou section of the river had begun to freeze. Fortunately, although Huangfu Chaobo asked the county leaders and the battalion leaders to arrange all things as soon as possible after receiving the message from Luoyang, they returned to Luoyang in advance.

After returning to Luoyang, Huangfu Chaobo decided to have a rest for a few days and then gather people for discussion.
