Fa Zheng led his army into Yizhou, and the first thing they had to do was to cross Micang Mountain.

Micang Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, and it is very difficult to walk on the mountains.

Most of the soldiers in Cao Shuo's army grew in plains and hilly areas. Even if there are mountains in their hometown, they will not affect their living places.

The soldiers were not skilled in climbing the hills.

Leading a large army into Micang Mountain, Fa Zheng soon discovered that this army, which was invincible in the plains, was as confused as a group of underage children after entering the forest.

The army entered the mountains and forests, and soon news came that someone in the back team was left behind and disappeared.

Fa Zheng asked the soldiers who reported the news: "How many people have been lost?"

"About thirty or fifty," the soldier replied.

"Do you want to send someone to find him?" Yang Xiu asked next to him.

Fa Zheng shook his head: "The mountains are vast, where can I find the thirty or fifty people lost?"

"Can you watch them lose?" Yang Xiu asked in confusion.

"Let someone light up the wolf smoke." Fa Zheng ordered: "Although it is in the mountains and forests, the wolf smoke can be seen from a distance. When the lost person sees the wolf smoke, he should catch up."

When Yang Xiu and the generals heard that he said, they couldn't help but feel admiration.

Although the mountains are endless, the wolf smoke rises into the air. As long as the lost soldiers are careful, they can really follow the signs of the wolf smoke.

"Send the order and the army will be stationed on the spot." Fa Zheng ordered: "We will only wait for two days. In two days, if they have not caught up, we will leave!"

Military orders were issued, and the soldiers stationed in the mountains and forests.

Soon, a few wolf smokes were lit in the military camp.

The rolling smoke rose up, passed through the treetops, twisting into a thick smoke column in the air, like a giant dragon flying and hovering in the air!

Staying in the mountains and forests, the gap between trees is too small to set up a tent.

Fa Zheng sat on the soft fallen leaves, watching the soldiers looking for a resting place.

When they set off, the soldiers were all active and entered the forest, but they were depressed and sat or lying on the ground one by one, as if they were too lazy to do it even if they moved.

"Duke Fa, how big is Micang Mountain?" Yang Xiu approached him and asked, "Why did he walk for so long, but there was still no sign of going out?"

"Micang Mountain is too big." Fa Zheng replied: "Most of the soldiers in Shu grew up in the mountains. They understand the mountains. Even if they get lost in the mountains, I will never be worried at all. But the soldiers who grew up in the plains do not understand the mountains at all. Not to mention Micang Mountain, even if they are given a small hill, they will probably lose their direction."

Yang Xiu nodded: "Since it will take a long time to get out, is there any way for the Fagong to prevent the soldiers from getting lost?"

"Please find some ropes." Fa Zheng said: "The soldiers tied each other with ropes to their waists. If anyone can't keep up, the others will help more. We are not good at mountain combat. Once the enemy arrives early, they will definitely suffer a great loss!"

"I'll make arrangements now." Yang Xiu replied: "Fortunately, I followed Fagong to enter Micang Mountain, otherwise I wouldn't know how many soldiers would be lost in the mountains."

"If the lost soldiers were in groups of three or five, maybe some could come back." Fa Zheng frowned: "If they didn't get together, they might not be able to come back!"

Yang Xiu, who was about to leave, looked at Fazheng in surprise: "What does Fagong mean to say this?"

"Although you can find food everywhere in the mountains and forests, there are many things that look good, but they are poisonous after eating them." Fa Zheng replied: "In addition, there are wolves, insects, tigers and leopards in the mountains. The army is moving, and wild beasts dare not approach them. If one or two people walk, I am afraid they will be attacked by wild beasts all the way. After all, there are only a few who can fight wild beasts."

After Fa Zheng said this, Yang Xiu suddenly felt his heart tightening.

He thought that relying on mountains would increase the possibility of survival, after all, the military books also said that he would die by carrying mountains and carrying water.

But Fazheng's statement made him wonder all this.

There are crises everywhere in the mountains and forests, and I am afraid there is more death than life...

"I will arrange what the Fa Gong ordered first." Yang Xiu retreated and then left.

Fifty thousand soldiers walked in the mountains for two or three days, but it was not many that could only lose thirty or fifty people.

Looking at the soldiers lying scattered on the soft leaves, Fa Zheng still felt uneasy.

Most of the soldiers in the army were brought from Hanzhong, some of which were similar to those of the local sergeants, and they grew up in the mountains and forests since childhood.

But these people are only a few after all, and more soldiers have been living in plains.

When they enter the mountains, they just open their eyes. Once the enemy uses the help of the mountains, they may have been dealt with without even seeing their opponents...

Liu Bei killed his whole family and was eager to take revenge. He asked Cao Shu to lead his troops to attack Yizhou.

The warriors he brought from Luoyang were all warriors who Cao Shu regarded as treasures. Even the soldiers who took over from Hanzhong had experienced wars and knew how to protect themselves on the battlefield.

No matter when, veterans are the most precious wealth in the military.

If these people were lost, he really didn't know how to explain to Cao Shu.

Fire in the mountains and forests is different from on plains.

There are trees and fallen leaves everywhere here, and a tiny of sparks may form a prairie fire.

The lit brazier is guarded by a dedicated person.

The soldiers guarding the brazier must not only ensure that it is burning, but also that no Mars splashes outside. Even if Mars splashes out, they must be extinguished immediately. The flames must not form a climate.

In addition, whenever the wolf manure in the brazier is about to burn out, they will take out another piece and throw it in.

Wolf dung can smoke. Whenever you march, in order to convey information to your own people and horses in the distance, there will be some in the army.

Because the rising smoke is very heavy, you can see it from a distance.

Fa Zheng made people lit up wolf smoke, which was used to guide the lost soldiers to the road and prevent them from running around in the mountains and forests.

Fa Zheng led his army into Micang Mountain, and Liu Bei also led his troops out of Chengdu.

He had already discovered the path chosen by Fazheng. Liu Bei was urging the soldiers to speed up the journey, intending to block Fazheng in the mountains before he crossed Micang Mountain.

As long as Fa Zheng and the others are not allowed to successfully cross Micang Mountain, Yizhou will most likely be safe.

As the main general, Jiang Wei certainly knew Liu Bei’s thoughts.

But he did not think that Fa Zheng could stop him from climbing over the mountains and ridges. He was considering where to use the terrain to effectively block Fa Zheng and the army he brought!

"Boyue!" Liu Bei greeted Jiang Wei by horse and walked in front of the team.

Jiang Wei stepped forward: "What are your Majesty's instructions?"
