Chapter 759: Another Unlucky Guy
The battle was soon over, and the reception of prisoners of war and the clearing of the battlefield were going on at the same time, which was not a difficult task for the well-trained Bingzhou army, and the Bingzhou cavalry had already left Bowl City and embarked on a journey westward.
Although a great victory was achieved, it did not mean that the war situation would become optimistic, after all, what the Bingzhou army defeated was only a partial division of the Sima army, even if the whole army was really wiped out, and it did not let the Sima army reach the point of breaking the muscles and bones.
According to the news from the front line, the fierce battle at Shimen Pass was in full swing, and in order to capture Shimen Pass as soon as possible, Sima Shi sent troops and horses to launch a fierce attack in turn, day and night, and the offensive did not stop, which also put Du Pre's shooting battalion under great pressure.
Although the shooting battalion occupies a geographical advantage, but compared with the Sima army in terms of troops, it is a big difference, Sima Shi can not attack, but also used his brains, he launched an attack day and night, just to use high-intensity attacks to drag down the shooting battalion.
The terrain is narrow, and the brigade cannot be used, but the Sima Division can adopt the method of wheel warfare, and constantly send the troops with strong physical strength and energy to launch round after round of attacks, while the shooting battalion has few troops, so it can only go all out to meet the battle, so if the axis is rotated, the physical strength and energy of the state army will be difficult to sustain, and the Shimen Pass will not be able to hold it sooner or later.
Although the victory in Wanzicheng greatly boosted the morale of the Bingzhou army, the fierce battle at Shimen Pass was still touching, Pei Xiu Luzhi and others once again suggested to Cao Liang, hoping to increase the troops at Shimen Pass, otherwise with the current situation, Du Yu is likely to not be able to hold out for three days.
However, Cao Liang was always indifferent, because he believed that Du Pre would properly handle the affairs of the front line, although Du Pre was still very young at this time, and had not yet been able to come up with a convincing record except for commanding the army and fighting a few battles with the Xiongnu Xianbei people.
But Cao Liang knew that Du Pre was a real famous general, and this small battle of Shimen Pass would definitely not be difficult for him, not to mention that Cao Liang gave him the task of holding on for three days, not always asking him to stick to it, after three days, no matter what the battle was, Du Pre could quit the battle and give up Shimen Pass.
That is to say, within these three days, Sima Jun can hold the Shimen Pass, no matter how ugly the battle situation is, it will not shake Du Yu's determination.
Cao Liang believed that Du Yu would make proper arrangements on his side, and there was no need for Cao Liang to worry about it, and after achieving a great victory in Bowl City, Cao Liang set his sights on the west again, looking for the next unlucky egg.
Obviously, Cao Liang set his sights on Sima Jun's Western Road Man, Ma Hu Zun's department.
Compared with Chen Tai and Hu Fen, these two young people who have just experienced the war, Hu Zun can be called a veteran, and has participated in the battle of Wu many times, when Gongsun Yuan rebelled against Liaodong, Sima Yi sent troops to conquer, Hu Zun was the general in front of the account, and the generals of Gongsun Yuan were Beiyan and Yang Zuo, and he made a lot of military achievements and was promoted to the general of the broken captives.
The Gaopingling Incident, Hu Zun unswervingly stood on Sima Yi's side, naturally got Sima Yi's reuse, was appointed as the general of the expedition to the north, the attack and the state, Sima Yi appointed Hu Zun to lead the West Road people, led the army to attack Yang'a, in order to respond to the action of the main army.
This time, Hu Zun and his son Hu Fen were both reused by Sima Yi, serving as the chief general of the Western Route Army and the deputy general of the Eastern Route Army respectively.
However, Hu Zun's troops have always been known for their stability, and he drove his troops straight to Yang'a, and did not get carried away and advance lightly, but was cautious and cautious, step by step, and did not dare to have any careless moves.
The deputy general Wang Jing disagreed, thinking that Hu Zun's caution was a little too much, such a rapid march, I am afraid that Sima Yi's army has reached Huguan, and they have not yet reached Yang'a, so won't it become a laughing stock for others?
This crusade and annexation, Sima Yi poured out 150,000 troops, such an absolute superiority of troops, coupled with Sima Yi, a legendary figure who has experienced a hundred battles, no one will doubt that this expedition will fail, Sima Yi sent Hu Zunwang through the West Route Army, Chen Tai Hu Fen for the East Route Army, which is clearly sending credit, as long as it can successfully capture and annex the state, then such a great merit will definitely not be able to run.
But if Hu Zun's marching speed is followed, let alone taking credit, I am afraid that he will have to lag behind the main army a lot, and no matter how great the credit is, I am afraid that he will have to pass by them.
Wang Jing is different from Hu Zun from a family in Longxi, he was born poor, is an authentic farmer, but very talented, won the appreciation of fellow villager Cui Lin, served as the county guard, and later dismissed the official because of the matter, ups and downs, in the years when Cao Shuang was in power, he has never been reused.
After Cao Shuang touched the nail, Wang Jing had to switch to Sima Yi and became a part of the Sima family coup, when Sima Zhao attacked the palace, Wang Jing has been following the left and right, but the Sima family's order is obeyed, naturally Sima Yi appreciated, became the deputy general of the Western Route Army.
Wang Jing came from a humble background, so he was more eager to make contributions through this move, so his performance was extremely urgent, seeing Hu Zun abide by the art of war and advance slowly, Wang Jing was a little anxious, and he couldn't wait to lead another division and go straight to Gaodu Huguan.
Hu Zun didn't listen to his plan, and still went his own way, advancing step by step.
Although Wang Jing was anxious, he was also helpless, after all, Hu Zun, as the chief general of the Western Route Army, had the right to make decisions on the spot, and he was a deputy general, how could he trespass, so although Wang Jing was anxious, he also had to obey Hu Zun's orders.
Yanghu sat on the right side, led the troops to guard Yang'a, and heard that Hu Zunwang Jing led 30,000 troops to take Yang'a, so he led the troops to fight and fought with Sima Jun in Qingyangpo.
With Hu Zun's original intention, he was not in a hurry to fight Yanghu, but was ready to set up a large camp on the west side of Qingyangpo to confront Yanghu.
Wang Jing was anxious when he heard it, Yanghu only led 5,000 men and horses to come, its number was far from the Sima army, such a huge disparity in troops, Hu Zun was still good at it, this approach was really puzzling, Wang Jing could only argue with reason, and finally persuaded Hu Zun to allocate 10,000 horses to him, so that he and Yanghu fought in Qingyangpo.
After Wang Jing took charge of the army, he immediately waved his army and drove straight in, taking advantage of Yanghu's distant arrival and unstable foothold, he launched an attack on it and killed Yanghu by surprise.
Yanghu was not able to fight the enemy, he left in a hurry, lost his armor, and threw the baggage all the way, Wang Jing saw this, and naturally pursued it relentlessly, but he didn't know that he had already fallen into Yanghu's plan to lure the enemy deeper.
