Chapter 196: Half-crossing and Attacking Inside and Outside
Sima Yi looked at Xiahou Xuan and said with a smile: "Tai Chu, what do you think?" ”
Xiahou Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Half-crossing? The last general believed that the Wu people were most likely to set up an ambush in Anfengdu in Huaishui. ”
Sima Yi neither denied nor affirmed, but smiled slightly: "How can you see it?" ”
Xiahou Xuan pointed to the map and said: "The north of Huaishui is the hinterland of our Great Wei, and the Wu people dare not easily cross the river, so the Wu people can set up an ambush in the section of dozens of miles from Anfeng to Anfeng City. The Huaishui near Anfengdu is wide, if the Wu people set up an ambush on the south bank, and when our army crosses halfway, the lineup is not in order, and they take advantage of the chaos to attack, our army will definitely be difficult to take care of, and the situation is worrying. ”
When Sima Yi heard this, he stroked his palms and laughed: "Tai Chu's opinion is slightly the same as that of a certain one, and a certain person also thinks that the Wu army is the most likely to set up an ambush in Anfengdu. ”
Hu Zundao: "In this case, how should our army break it?" ”
Sima Yi said: "This matter is easy to hear, the Wu people set up an ambush on the south bank of Anfengdu, and when our army crosses halfway, our army can be calculated, and most of them continue to cross the river from Anfeng according to the original plan, and send elite soldiers all the way, cross the river from Yiyang and other places, go around to the back of the Wu army, and when the Wu army comes out, cover it from behind, and join the army that crosses the river to break the Wu army. ”
Hu Zunzan said: "The Metropolitan Governor really has a clever plan, the Wu people want to attack halfway, but the Metropolitan Governor gives him a two-sided attack, and the Wu people suffer from the enemy on the back, so they can not be defeated." But I don't know who the Metropolitan Governor will send to go around the back of An Fengdu? ”
Before Sima Yi could speak, Xiahou Xuan preemptively said, "The last general is willing to lead his troops to go." ”
Although Niu Jin was a step later than Xiahou Xuan, he quickly stepped forward and said, "The last general is also willing to go." ”
Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but change color slightly, this was the first battle with Wu Jun, Xiahou Xuan was eager to make meritorious contributions, so he preemptively asked for his life, and the others did not fight, but Niu Jin, who had always been more straightforward and reckless, refused to give in, and wanted to come to grab business.
Niu Jin grinned and said: "General Xiahou, this is the first time you have gone to the battlefield, this sneak attack behind is a difficult job, but it is not suitable for you scholars to do, let me come to Lao Niu." ”
Xiahou Xuan was also anxious, and said: "Although General Niu has made outstanding achievements, it is a meticulous matter to sneak attack the Wu army, General Niu is too impatient, I am afraid that he is not suitable for this position, right?" ”
Niu Jin was about to refute, but Sima Yi said: "Niu Hujun has other arrangements for this battle, so let's retire for the time being." ”
Niu Jin had no choice but to retreat, Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but secretly rejoice, it seems that no one is competing with him for this task anymore, this task is none other than him.
Sima Yi looked at Xiahou Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "What Niu Hujun said also has a certain truth, Taichu, you are leading the troops for the first time, and it may be inconvenient to take such a heavy task, it is better to send others to the matter of sneaking up on the Wu army, and Taichu should cross the river with the army." ”
Xiahou Xuan hurriedly said: "The master is too worried, although the last general is leading the troops for the first time, he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and he knows the way to advance and retreat from the virtual and the real. ”
Sima Yi nodded, but he still said with a hint of worry: "This task is very important, and it is related to whether our army can break through the Huaishui defense line of the Wu people. ”
Xiahou Xuan's face was flushed, and he said hurriedly: "The last general is willing to make a military order, and if he can't win, he should be punished by military law." ”
This is a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds, how could Xiahou Xuan let it slip away in vain, so in a hurry, he simply said that he wanted to establish a military order.
Sima Yi said: "Military order? Excuse me, irrelevant things, it hurts to talk about military orders. Since Tai Chu is resolute, then the sneak attack will be handled by Tai Chu. However, you need to know that this matter is very important, and whether our army can cross the river and defeat the enemy army is all due to Taichu, and the enemy must not be underestimated. ”
Xiahou Xuan arched his hand and said: "Only, the last general will definitely go all out and live up to the hopes of the Taifu." ”
Next, Sima Yi discussed many details of the battle with the generals, and agreed with Xiahou Xuan that the time to cross the river and attack was at noon the day after tomorrow.
After the discussion, the generals each gave their hands and left, leaving Sima Yi alone in the Chinese military tent.
Sima Yi was sorting out the case, and he didn't know that Sima Shi had already quietly come to his side, and said faintly: "Since my father has insight into the tricks of the Wu people, why should he leave the opportunity to make contributions to Xiahou Xuan?" ”
Sima Shi is just a member of the army, so naturally he is not qualified to participate in such a high-level general meeting, but not being able to participate does not mean that Sima Shi does not know, in fact, he has already heard it clearly outside the account.
The grudge between him and Xiahou Xuan itself is very deep, he was imprisoned last year, not thanks to Xiahou Xuan, although he was lucky not to die, but the prison of Tingwei's Mansion is easy to get in and out, Sima Shi has suffered enough, originally had a little apology for Xiahou Xuan, this time it is gone, Sima Shi secretly swore that the suffering he suffered must be repaid by his enemies.
His enemy, of course, is not only Xiahou Xuan, but also Cao Liang.
The hatred of killing his father, the hatred of taking his wife, this is probably the most difficult grudge in life to resolve, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not a common day, Sima Shi suffered the greatest shame in life, this revenge is not avenged, and he swears to be a man.
In Luoyang, maybe Sima Shi really didn't have many opportunities, but this time, it was by mistake, Xiahou Xuan and Cao Liang were both in the southern army, and he Sima Shi also became his father Sima Yi's army and took the last train of the southern expedition.
The commander of the army is his father is Sima Yi, which undoubtedly adds a lot of opportunities for Sima Shi's revenge, in this army, killing people is like grass mustard, as long as a simple crime is fabricated, Sima Yi, who has the power to kill anyone first.
Sima Shi was eager to take Cao Liang's life as soon as he left Luoyang, but after Sima Yi learned about it, he reprimanded Sima Shi a few words, killing a little Cao Liang was not a problem, but the real problem was how to explain to Cao Shuang and the courtiers when he returned to Beijing in the future.
With Sima Yi's current status, no matter what he does, there are countless pairs of eyes staring, once he makes a mistake, it will be a catastrophe, so Sima Yi is scheming, so naturally he can't think the same thing as Sima Shi.
Sima Shi was very helpless, it seemed that this matter had to be discussed in the long run, but today he overheard it outside the tent, and the credit was just going to be robbed by Xiahou Xuan, he was very unwilling, and saw that there was no one else in the account, so he had to ask Sima Yi to understand.
