Chapter 1003: Outlaw Kabasaka
The battle of Pusaka City was not as smooth as imagined, although there were only more than 1,000 people defending Pusaka City, but the guards were specially appointed by Sima Yi, that is to say, Sima Yi had deployed the next move in Pusaka in advance and seemed to be idle chess, but it left a way back for the retreat of the army.
Luo Ning, the famous general of Puban City, was originally a domestic slave in Sima's mansion, and later because of his outstanding martial arts and courage, he was brought to the army by Sima Yi and was repeatedly promoted to captain because of his merits.
Since he was born in the Sima family, Luo Ning is of course the descendant of Sima Yi's lineage, and there is no problem with his loyalty to the Sima family.
As the first choke point between Qin and Jin, Pubanjin's position is quite important, but at this time, it can't attract anyone's attention, because whether it is Yongzhou west of the Yellow River or Hedong County east of the Yellow River, they are all under the control of the Sima clan, so as long as the ferry is kept unblocked, there is no need to send heavy troops to garrison it.
What's more, Sima Yi led an army of 170,000 to conquer in person, plus the original soldiers and horses in Hedong County, all the troops added up to 220,000 people, and Sima Yi would lose the battle in this battle? It is estimated that anyone who asks this question in advance will be considered by others to have a water in their brain.
But it is Sima Yi's nature to take precautions, and with Sima Yi's cautious and suspicious character, it is not surprising to arrange Luo Ning to Pubanjin, and now it seems that this step was considered superfluous by Sima Shi at that time It became a life-saving straw.
After Luo Ning arrived at Pubancheng, in accordance with Sima Yi's order, he strengthened the defense of Pubancheng, and was always on alert, this time the state army sent two thousand men and horses from the Xiaocai battalion and the Yue cavalry battalion to sneak attack, wanting to repeat the trick of taking Pingyang and Anyi, but Luo Ning did not give them any chance at all, the defense of the entire Pubancheng was not leaky, and the state army could only look at the city and sigh, helpless.
The cavalry was not good at attacking the city, Wen Qin and Deng Ai sent 2,000 men and horses, just to use the advantage of cavalry speed to rush to Pusaka first, surprise it, attack it unprepared, take Pusaka first, cut off the way forward of Sima's army, but now people are very well guarded, they have no chance to take advantage of it, so Pusaka City has no chance to take it at all.
And at this moment, the Sima army is speeding all the way, looking at Pusaka, Sima Shi is not entangled with the Bingzhou army at all, from Anyi to Puban, the distance of eighty miles, almost a day, no matter how fierce the attack of the Bingzhou army is, most of the Sima army will pay a little casualties, as long as the main force is ensured, no matter how much the loss Sima Division can bear.
The Xiao cavalry battalion and the Yue cavalry battalion have done their best to attack, but Sima Shi is determined to go, and the state army is really difficult to keep him, on this road, Sima Jun is corpses all over the field, blood flows into a river, Xiao cavalry battalion is like entering no man's land, wanton slashing, the arrows of the Yue cavalry battalion are almost shot out, Sima Jun in order to escape, the price paid is also real, on this way, if the corpse of Sima Bing who died in the battle is connected head and foot, it can be placed from Anyi to the bank of the Yellow River.
But the army of more than 100,000 people, in the case of unhindered front, is so unscrupulous to kill, that can't be killed.
Wen Qin and Deng Ai tried to send a part of the cavalry to intercept the Sima army, but the effect was very small, at this moment the Sima army in order to escape for his life, completely killed the red eye, the torrent of tens of thousands of people, the impact, comparable to the roaring flood that just burst the embankment, unstoppable, even if the cavalry combat effectiveness is strong, can not resist this torrent.
Unless there is a dangerous terrain or a natural barrier such as a river swamp in front of you, you will have a chance to stop this huge crowd, but from Anyi to Pusaka, it is a completely flat plain, open as a river, and there is no danger to defend at all.
Unless the Bingzhou army can turn the first camp at this moment and use the flat box car to build a defensive line, so that there is a chance to block the retreat of the Sima army.
However, the flat box truck is heavy and slow, and if you want to intercept Sima Jun, you must make arrangements in advance.
Wen Qin and Deng Ai saw that they couldn't stop the torrent of Sima Jun, so they could only give up the idea of total annihilation, send all their troops, and go all out to attack Sima Jun from the back and flanks, killing as much as they wanted.
The front of Sima Jun has become a death forbidden zone at this moment, and any army that wants to stop in front of them is a mantis arm as a car, and it will be easily swallowed by this torrent.
However, attacking the Huaima army from the back and flanks was extremely easy, and the fleeing Sima army had no ability to resist these attacks at all.
The scene is as if entering the African savannah, where hundreds of thousands of antelopes and wildebeest gallop across the vast savannah, and the mighty lions and ferocious sideburns do not dare to stand in the way, they can only hunt around the sheep and horses, constantly hunting and killing the lonely.
Although the Bingzhou cavalry is stronger than lions and sideburns, they will not stop chasing because they hunt a prey, but their attack, for the Sima army of 100,000 people, is still a little less, and the inability to intercept means that they cannot be completely annihilated, and what they do is only to help Sima Jun lose weight.
When the front of the Sima army arrived at Pusaka, the lengthy line did look a lot slimmer, and Sima Shi didn't have time to count how many people died on the way, only knowing that this journey was completely made of corpses and paved with blood, and if there were not so many Sima soldiers to cover them, Sima Shi would not have had a chance to reach Pubanjin at all.
At this time, the siege of Puban City was fruitless, and the state army had retreated, and when they saw Sima's army coming overwhelmingly, in order to avoid being surrounded, they could only choose to retreat, and Sima Shi rushed to Puban, and did not enter the city, but led the army straight to the Yellow River crossing.
There is no point in entering Pusaka City, only by crossing the Yellow River can you really get rid of the pursuit of the Bingzhou army, if the Bingzhou army does its best to attack, Pusaka is a lonely city, and it can't be held at all.
What's more, Kasaka is just a small city, and there is no problem with stationing a few thousand people, but if tens of thousands of people pour in, it will be overcrowded and it will be difficult to move an inch.
Fortunately, Luo Ning was sent to Pubanjin, not only to guard Pubancheng, but also Sima Yi asked him to prepare a considerable number of ferries in case of emergency.
Luo Ning carried out Sima Yi's order to the letter, and dozens of ferries had already been ready to stop, and they had never sailed on the ferry, and at this moment, it just came in handy.
