Chapter 175: The Battle of Wuguan (1)

Wuguan, for the barrier of the south of Tianwu Prefecture, between the mountains and mountains, since a long time ago it is to be juxtaposed with the famous Xiongguan such as Ziyouguan, Tianyun Pass, Xiping Pass, etc., self-shaped natural danger, easy to defend and difficult to attack!

If the enemy comes from the south, he only needs to divide thousands of people to station in the east and west passes, and then garrison the south gate with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, with a general, and the enemy is million, unless the corpses are piled up, it is still difficult to enter an inch!

Wang Ba is the head of the Ten Tigers of Tianwu, the chief general under the command of Tianwu Assassin Shi Haojun, who was ordered to guard Wuguan, and heard that the scouts were coming, and the southern Xinjiang army attacked in a big way, and was busy summoning Yuan Shao, Lin Zhan, Chen Chai, Wu Rui, and Tang Wei to discuss matters.

"The previous battle in the wet forest mountain, the loss of the soldiers, the lord has been dissatisfied, this time the southern Xinjiang army poured out of the nest, wantonly attacked, the soldiers are brave, can not be defeated, only allowed to build high city walls, abandon the surrounding counties and county passes, and make every effort to defend the military pass, not to lose."

Wang Ba is worried, he has good force, but he rarely faces this situation, if you talk about the overall situation and strategy, it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance.

Lin Zhan was originally a general of Wuguan, one of the Ten Tigers of Tianwu, and his qualifications in the Tianwu Army were also very old, seeing that Yuan Shao and others were silent, he hugged his fists and said: "Tianhuangzhou is a vast land, and it has been governed by Wang Meng's trial and others, and now it is even more orderly, and the wealthy businessman Xiao Shi has taken refuge, and the money and food are sufficient.

The last general thought that General Yuan's fierce generals were like clouds, so it was better to let General Yuan go out of the customs and set up camp, and wait with us to form a horn, and not make him go all out to tackle the key problems. ”

Wu Rui was annoyed that Yuan Shao had repeatedly embarrassed himself before, and he also made a suggestion: "In the previous battle, the fierce generals under General Yuan were all brave and invincible, and the battle with Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei and others was also calm, this matter can be done." ”

Chen Chai and Tang Wei also didn't like Yuan Shao, and they also wanted Yuan Shao to go out of the city and set up a village, so they also came out and said: "General Lin has been stationed in Wuguan for many years and is familiar with the terrain here, so we agree with General Lin's proposal." ”

Wang Ba didn't have a good or bad feeling about Yuan Shao, but when he saw that the four brothers all supported letting Yuan Shao go out of the city and set up a village, he had no choice but to cast a questioning look at Yuan Shao.

Although Yuan Shao is the No. 2 person in Wuguan, there are only seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses in the headquarters, and most of them are veterans who are left in Changxing, and other soldiers and horses do not listen to his dispatch at all.

Today, when I heard the advice of Wang Ba and others, I sneered in my heart, but my face was silent, and I only clasped my fists and saluted: "The sin will be at your disposal." ”

Wang Baxi said: "That is the case, without further ado, General Yuan can lead the men and horses of the headquarters, plus 5,000 Chinese troops, a total of 13,000 soldiers and horses out of the east gate and turn to the southeast ten miles to set up a village, on the one hand cooperate with Lin Zhan to contain Jiang Wei's offensive, and on the other hand pay attention to Zhao Yun in the north, if there is a big battle, you can quickly help." ”

On the same day, Yuan Shao led 8,000 soldiers and horses from the headquarters and 5,000 soldiers and horses of the Chinese army, a total of 13,000 soldiers and horses, Tian Feng, Xu You, Feng Ji and other strategists, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw, Ju Yi, Chun Yuqiong and other generals went out of the east gate and traveled ten miles to the southeast to create a battalion and set up scouts.

That night, Yuan Shao summoned everyone to discuss the matter: "I and Chu Yi are not in the same day, I originally wanted to use the hand of Hao Jun to avenge Changxing, but I didn't think that Hao Jun had occupied Tianwu for many years, and the generals and ministers were all ordinary people, not as good as Chu Yi's strong generals, and the Tianwu Army was also called a strong army in vain, which was very different from the army in southern Xinjiang. This time, Chu Yi mobilized the army and made a big move, although the Hao army was in danger of Wuguan, but if Chu Yi insisted on taking it by force, the Hao army would definitely be defeated!

Although I want to establish a foundation in Tianwu, I didn't expect Hao Jun and his subordinates to be so cautious and careful with me, it is really difficult to succeed! is a success in one fell swoop, and Chu Yi is in the south, which is really unwilling! My father has an old relationship with Mu Xian, the general of the expedition to the north, and I have secretly ordered Han Meng and Lu Weihuang to pack up their belongings, money and food, and we will set off for Beitou Mu Xian on the same day. ”

Tian Feng saw that Yuan Shao had made up his mind, and he didn't say anything, just sighed lightly, Feng Ji and Xu Yu supported Yuan Shao's decision.

At the end of January in spring, the spring flowers bloom, the warm sun for several days, refreshing people's hearts, the road is gradually drying out, in addition to the cool breeze blowing from time to time, bringing a burst of cold, it is already through the cold to usher in a new life.

Zhao Yun with a large army of 55,000, from the east, where he passed, heard the wind and fell, the soldiers took the counties east of Wuguan without blood, Zhao Yun saw that Wuguan was heavily guarded, and he relied on the southeast city gate twenty miles down the camp.

In his spare time, he took Zhu Huan Huarong two generals and more than a dozen rode up a high mountain to look at Wuguan, seeing that Wuguan was so steep and majestic, standing majestically, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Wuguan is worthy of being one of the Xiongguan in the world, leaning on the high port of Juling in the east, and the evil water Xiongshan in the west, it is really not much inferior to Tianyun Pass, if it is not for the various siege equipment that the lord and the military division have studied and improved, I am afraid it is really difficult to capture." ”

Zhu Huan was originally stationed in Tianyun Pass, knowing the majesty of Tianyun Pass, and now after looking at Wuguan, he also nodded and said: "It's a pity that Wuguan is surrounded by mountains on both sides, although it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is impossible to deploy a large-scale offensive, but the south is an endless plain, although the city is dangerous, but our army is attacking the city, but it is bound to break!" ”

According to the report of the spies, Yuan Shao led a group of soldiers and horses out of the west gate and set up a village in the southwest of the mountain, intending to install a nail under our army, and when most of the Hao army arrived, they could also have a few more choices. Why don't we take advantage of the high morale and join forces with General Jiang Wei to break this village first. Hua Rong took the bow and held the gun, and suggested loudly.

"Wang Ba and the other Tianwu clans are all mediocre! There are a few capable people under Yuan Shao's command, and Yuan Shao is based on the mountain, I am afraid that he will not be able to attack it for a while, if Wang Ba leads troops to attack, it should not be the beginning and the end, but it is not appropriate. ”

Zhao Yun said: "We are the main office of the front wing, not to take risks, if it is for a little merit and affect the lord's plan, then there will be no redemption." We only need to challenge every day to maintain morale, and when the lord comes, we can win the martial arts in one go! ”

"Wu Fei, the general under the command of Boyo, was beheaded by Yan Liang under Yuan Shao, and Beyo is young and frivolous, I am afraid that he will be rash, Hua Rong, you will lead 5,000 troops out of the camp at night to ambush in the middle of Yuan Shaozhai and Wuguan, at that time I will lead the army to feign a feint to attack the city pass to attract attention, if Boyo attacks the village when Wang Ba goes to help, you will block it, don't let Wang Ba's reinforcements pass, so that Bo Yao is difficult to take care of."

Zhao Yun looked at Wuguan from afar and continued: "If Boyo doesn't attack the village, you can just act when you have the opportunity." ”

It is said that Jiang Wei came from the west, and it was also bloodless, until the west gate of Wuguan forced the city to go down, and when he heard that Yuan Shao was out of the city, he couldn't help but be angry, and summoned Lu Wenlong, Li Dian and Cao Zhen to discuss: "Yuan Shao harmed my general Wu Fei, today I will come prepared, and we should avenge it!" ”

Lu Wenlong and Wu Fei were good friends, and when he heard what Jiang Wei said, he hugged his fists and said: "Boyo is the commander of the first army, and he is willing to capture Yuan Shao's camp for Boyo!" Behead Yuan Shao Yanliang to comfort General Wu's soul in the sky! ”

When Cao Zhen first arrived, although he felt that it was inappropriate, he saw that Jiang and Lu were full of fighting spirit and did not want to offend, so he had to remind: "Yuan Shao is based on the mountain, and General Lu only needs to surround the mountain and cut off its water supply, and within ten days, it will be broken." However, General Boyo had to pay attention to the movements of Wuguan and Yuan Shao, and always be ready for battle. ”

"Yuan Shaobing is less than 10,000 soldiers, but several of the fierce generals under his command are first-class in the world, I will let Li Mancheng help you. I will lead 15,000 people with you to attack the village, and Zidan and I will garrison the camp and act when the opportunity arises. ”

Jiang Wei instructed: "I will ask General Zhao Yun for help again, let him put pressure on Wuguan, you two don't need to be impatient, Yuan Shao Dazhai will be broken!" ”
