Chapter 31 The deviant division attacked Jiangyou urgently
In the Han military camp outside Chengdu.
"Your Highness, if today's sub-clans are all in the hands of the Wei army in Chengdu, His Royal Highness is the only clan, and he should be the commander of the Han army!" Jiang Wei persuaded him.
Liu Yao's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses joined Jiang Wei's 20,000 troops in Chengdu, and now there are more than 30,000 troops stationed outside Chengdu, and the commander of the leading army is also controversial.
In terms of identity, Liu Yao is the only surviving king of stability, and there is no one in the Han army whose status is more noble than him, and for the military position, Jiang Wei is a general, in charge of all the soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Yao knew how many catties and taels he had, and he had just heard about Jiang Wei's deception of the total annihilation of the Zhong Hui army at the Sword Pavilion Pass, so he didn't dare to hold it up, so he hurriedly excused himself and said:
"The soldiers and horses of the Han Dynasty are all under the command of the general, the general Xiaochang is military, and the little king can't reach it, so I am willing to listen to the general's dispatch."
Jiang Wei's prestige is incomparable to Liu Yao, not to mention that Zhang Yi, Liao Hua and other veterans in the army all look to Jiang Wei as the leader, and even in the hearts of Luo Xian and others, Jiang Wei is also the number one.
For Jiang Wei's loyalty, Liu Yao does not dare to doubt it now, and he can't doubt it, even if he forcibly pushes Jiang Wei to the main position in the army.
"In this way, the old man will reluctantly be the main general, and after rescuing the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, he will hand over the military power to the Son of Heaven!" Jiang Wei fell generously in the main position.
"I don't know what the general's arrangements are to take this Chengdu City?" Liu Yao only cared about when he could take Chengdu and force the Wei army away, as for who led the army, he didn't care very much.
Jiang Wei heard Liu Yao's inquiry, and frowned:
"Don't hide it from Your Highness, the old man has tentatively attacked Chengdu City three times, Deng Ai has never flinched, and there is nothing he can do about this Chengdu City at present!"
"Can we besiege Chengdu until we run out of food?" Liu Yao asked innocently again.
"Chengdu City has enough food and grass, enough for Deng Ai's army to hold on for a year and a half, and it is imminent to rescue the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials, how can it be besieged for a long time?" Jiang Wei shook his head and replied.
Zhuge Xu, who was under Jiang Wei's account, opened his mouth to speak at this time:
"Now Chengdu is surrounded by our legions, the Han army does not have much advantage in strength, and it must not be possible to attack strongly, once the Jiangyou Wei army knows that Deng Ai has been besieged, the Wei State must send a large army to send a steady stream of troops to rescue, and then the Han army will be attacked from both sides, and the situation will be critical?"
"According to General Zhuge Zhi, what should my Han army do?" Jiang Wei asked.
Zhuge Xu thought for a while, got up and stood up, and said:
"Deng Ai at this time is nothing more than relying on the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials in his hands, our Han army does not dare to attack strongly, and Chengdu City is strong, grain and grass are sufficient, Deng Ai can hold on and wait for the arrival of Wei reinforcements, our army can make a plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle and then encircle the point to send reinforcements, cut off Deng Ai's way back to China and Wei reinforcements!"
Jiang Wei had suffered a lot of losses in the hands of Zhuge Xu, and knew that Zhuge Xu was resourceful, so he must have figured out how to lay it out, so he asked:
"According to General Zhuge 's opinion, how should we surround the point and send reinforcements?"
"The last general thinks that the army will continue to besiege Chengdu City here, send a partial division to attack Jiangyou, and take Jiangyou City, as long as Jiangyou City is tightly held and Wei reinforcements are blocked, Deng Ai's army is isolated and helpless, and it will inevitably collapse without a fight!" Zhuge Xu replied.
Jiang Wei stroked his beard and pondered for a while, now that the main force of the Wei army has been annihilated by himself in the Sword Pavilion, it is impossible for the Wei State to organize a large-scale army in a short period of time, and there will not be too many Wei reinforcements facing Jiangyou.
Jiang Wei is a decisive person, and immediately asked:
"General Zhuge is feasible in this plan, I don't know which one is willing to lead the division to attack Jiangyou?"
Liu Yao didn't have a chance to speak at all under Jiang Wei's account, first, he couldn't go into battle to fight, and second, he couldn't give advice, he still wanted to lead the army alone, so he stood up and said:
"General! Xiao Wang is willing to lead a partial division to attack Jiangyou, if he does not defeat Jiangyou, he will be engaged in military law! ”
Jiang Wei looked at Liu Yao, this king of stability was a little uncomfortable staying here, although he was a general, it was not good for him to give orders, it was better for him to stand up and lead the army to leave, so he asked:
"Your Highness's courage is commendable! I don't know how many soldiers and horses His Highness needs? ”
"Guan Xiu's 2,000 Jianning troops, Sha Sigu's 3,000 barbarian soldiers, and Chen She's 800 personal guards are enough!" Liu Yao replied.
"Good! Your Highness can set off with all your troops and horses, remember to be cautious! Jiang Wei admonished again.
"Don't worry, General!" Liu Yao turned around and left, and Guan Xiu, Chen Shesha Sigu, also got up and left with Liu Yao.
Jiangyou City, Wei General Tian Zhang was guarding a report of defeat in the mansion at this time, very anxious, he was the vanguard under Deng Ai's account, in Jiangyou Lian broke the Shu Han army three ambushes, outstanding achievements, Jiangyou guard Ma Miao looked at the wind and surrendered.
Deng Ai later ordered Tian Zhang to lead the army of 3,000 to guard Jiangyou City, and later received the news that Deng Ai took Chengdu to capture the Shu Han Son of Heaven and 100 officials, Tian Zhang thought that Shu had been decided, and it was done, who knew that within a few days he received the defeat report of the annihilation of the Zhonghui army, and Deng Ai's army had no news, so Tian Zhang quickly whipped and ordered people to ask for help from Yang Xin, the assassin of Liangzhou in Wei State.
Tian Zhang was worried, sighed, and said to himself: "I don't know how far the form of Shuzhong has changed. ”
Suddenly, a Wei soldier strode towards the mansion.
"Report! General, no! ”
"What's the matter? Panicked. Tian Zhang raised his eyebrows and scolded this Wei soldier.
"General Qiyu, there are a large number of Han troops outside the city, not to mention five or six thousand!" The Wei soldier replied.
"What? Someone, give me armor! When Tian Zhang heard Wei Bing's words, his face changed, and he didn't dare to delay for a while, so he ordered someone to put on his armor and go to find out.
Under Jiangyou City, Liu Yao looked at this small Jiangyou city, the city was short, the moat had already dried up, it could be said that there was no danger to defend, Liu Yao couldn't help but sneer:
"This Jiangyou City is at your fingertips!"
Chen She hurriedly reminded beside him:
"Your Highness can't be careless, although Jiangyou City is easy to attack and difficult to defend, but the location here is stuck in the throat of Wei and Shuzhong, if Wei sends troops to Chengdu, it will inevitably pass through Jiangyou, and the guards left by Deng Ai will definitely not be ordinary people!"
Liu Yao couldn't help but feel a little lost, he still had a lot to learn about marching and fighting, but this time he wanted to prove himself, he was also a person who had been on the battlefield, and he couldn't listen to other people's opinions on everything, so he immediately ordered:
"Chen She! The order goes down, the whole army buries the pot and cooks to make the ladder, tonight, I will take advantage of the night to personally supervise the siege! ”
As soon as Chen She heard that Liu Yao was going to attack the city tonight, and it was still a strong attack, his face changed suddenly.
Now the soldiers are fast, fighting is time, it is correct not to take advantage of the night to attack, and the strong attack is also a last resort, but who does not test the enemy's situation, do not launch a feint to storm a city that does not know the details!
But Chen She still carried out Liu Yao's military orders, and the orders given by the chief general must be strictly implemented, which is Chen She's consistent style.
