Chapter 301: The Fierce Battle of Wancheng on the Third Front (6)
Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei and others gathered in one place to discuss the military situation.
The sentinel came to report that tens of thousands of Cao troops had suddenly rushed into Liu Biao's military camp, and at this time, Liu Biao's military camp had become a 'chaotic' mess, and he was afraid that it would be defeated. \\
"Strategist, do you want to send troops to the rescue?" When Liu Bei heard the news, he was also anxious.
Although Liu Bei's army was subordinate to the Jingzhou army and attacked the city together during the day, Liu Bei did not station his troops with the Jingzhou army at night. Between Liu Beijun's military camp and Cai Maojun's military camp, there is a distance of almost five miles.
Liu Bei's partial stationing was Zhuge Liang's plan, in order to let Cai Mao accept the suggestion of stationing in the camp, Zhuge Liang's reason was that in case of an accident, the two sides could echo each other. Cai Mao was very disdainful of the words "in case of an accident", but Liu Biaojun's military advisor Kuai Yue agreed with Zhuge Liang's proposition, and the sub-camp stationed had no effect on Cai Mao, and there was no need to be a villain to oppose it, so he just let them go.
In this attack on Wancheng, the Jingzhou army dispatched a total of 70,000, of which 20,000 were Liu Bei's troops.
The siege battle, which lasted for several days, caused Liu Bei to lose 20,000 people, and the number of troops under Liu Bei's command was about 15,000 at present.
However, just now, Zhuge Liang once said to Liu Bei that no matter what happens in Liu Biaojun's military camp tonight, these 15,000 people should not act rashly.
And now, seeing Cai Mao's army in crisis, Liu Bei also felt faintly uneasy.
If he didn't lead the army to rescue Cai Mao, wouldn't he be in danger if the whole army was wiped out? You need to know that under the nest, there are no eggs?
Zhuge Liang's expression can be seen, but he is not in a hurry at all, and it can even be said that he doesn't seem to care about the success or failure of Cai Mao's side.
To be honest, if his 15,000 men suddenly enter the battlefield, it is very likely that the situation of the war will be saved. Cai Mao didn't expect Xu Huang to lead a large army to attack, and similarly, Xu Huang didn't expect that there would suddenly be a force 'chaotic' into the battlefield.
If you rush with your troops, you will likely be caught off guard and achieve rich results.
But looking at Zhuge Liang's face, he knew that he had no intention of rescuing Cai Mao at all.
Liu Bei expected that his military advisor would have a plan in mind, but he couldn't guess the other party's mind at all.
"If you go to rescue Cai Mao, you can indeed turn defeat into victory...... But that's not what I thought. Zhuge Liang faced the night wind, slowly shook the feather fan a few times, and said, "The goal I seek is bigger!" ”
With that, Zhuge Liang stretched out his right hand and pointed the feather fan to the distance hidden in the darkness.
Looking in the direction of the feather fan, Liu Bei was stunned, and then suddenly realized something.
"Wancheng!?" Could it be that what Zhuge Liang is seeking is to conquer Wancheng?
"Yes, it's Wancheng." Zhuge Liang had a smile on his face and said confidently, as if Wancheng was already in his pocket.
———————————————————————————————— Wancheng guarded the mansion, Guo Jia sat on the couch and slept on the desk.
It stands to reason that he stayed in the city as a military advisor, and he should wait until Xu Huang and the others returned victoriously, and then carry out a grand celebration banquet.
However, although Guo Jia's current physique is much better than his original historical self, he also has a 'problem' that he can't stay up at night, especially in the second half of the night, he will inevitably be drowsy and 'desire' to sleep. Guo Jia also wanted to wait for the news from outside the city to come back, but now that it was too late, he was really tired, and he couldn't hold on while waiting, so he fell asleep on the desk.
When the 'waiter' saw this, he could not bear to wake him up, so he took the quilt and put it on his body so that he would not catch a cold.
As long as Xu Huang succeeds, then after tonight, the siege of Wancheng will no longer exist. Guo Jia believed that there would be no mistakes in his plan, and there was nothing to worry about at all, so he slept very peacefully, and even faintly could hear snoring.
And just as Guo Jia was sleeping, a soldier suddenly ran in in a panic and shouted: "Strategist, it's not good!" Big things are wrong! ”
The soldiers shouted loudly, and Guo Jia was suddenly awakened by the soldiers' shouts.
"What's the big deal?" Seeing the soldier's terrified expression, Guo Jia also felt a sigh in his heart, and hurriedly asked.
"Yes, there are enemy troops attacking the city!" The soldier shouted.
What the? Guo Jia looked incredulous when he heard it.
Enemy siege? How could there be an enemy siege? Where did the enemy army come from to attack the city!
You must know that although your own arrangement is not leaky, it is also extremely clever, at least with those strategists in the Jingzhou army, it is absolutely impossible to see through your own strategy!
Xu Shu, Chen Gong, and Kuai Yue are resourceful, but they want to see through their own minds, and they still lack some courage to dare to think out of the box and break the convention.
In this case, who could see through his plan in advance, and strike back hard, taking advantage of the emptiness of the soldiers in Wancheng, to attack the city at night.
If, as the soldier had said, an army was attacking Wancheng, the situation would have been terrible.
Xu Huang went out of the city and took away most of the troops, and now the number of defenders in Wancheng is less than five thousand!
Although he didn't know the size of the army that came to attack the city, Guo Jia guessed that the number of people would not be small. How should this city be defended!? [Serialized, stay tuned...] This book consists of (.) Genuine provide, please support genuine]
