Chapter 562: Shrinking

"Incompetent, rubbish!"

The battle report was slammed on the table, and Wei Shou was furious.

This is the Sword Pavilion Tower, Wei Shou has been arranging his council hall here since the retreat from Mianzhu Pass, personally taking the lead in the front line, and ready to fight the enemy at any time, but to his disappointment, Pei Zilie obviously did not plan to attack, and the news from Cangxi Valley has always been bad news.

He Louzigan's whole army was wiped out, and it was just a matter of losing his division and humiliating the country, and now Wei Shou could not even contact the defenders of Cangxi Valley, although the enemy did not attack, but the enemy's scouts were extremely active, constantly intercepting and killing any scouts who tried to go to Cangxi Valley from the Sword Pavilion, and according to a few scouts who escaped with their lives, such an interception was not just one, there were too many ambushes on the road, especially when entering the mountains, the enemy's scouts seemed to be everywhere.

However, the most important thing on this road is the mountains.

After the last group of baggage troops came back with the news that He Louzigan's entire army was wiped out, now Wei Shou has not received any news related to the battle in Cangxi Valley, and the entire Cangxi Valley even said that the entire battle situation in Langzhong seems to have been shrouded by Li Xinchen, unless Wei Shou sends a large army to rescue, there is no way to get any contact with the defenders of Cangxi Valley.

The surrounding generals didn't dare to speak, everyone knew that if it wasn't in this mountain, but in Guanzhong, the Central Plains or any other place, Li Xinchen didn't know how many times he had died with this little force alone, but this is Bashu, and the layers of mountains and the Ba people who are active in it are undoubtedly Li Xinchen's greatest help.

Although the Northern Zhou army had a large number of troops, but these armies were concentrated together, once they were surrounded or trapped in any valley, it was undoubtedly a dead end, even if there were more soldiers and horses, it would not play much role, and the previous He Louzigan was the best example.

Wei Shou paced back and forth on the city, how did the entire Bashu battle situation evolve from the mighty advance of the army at the beginning to the current erosive appearance, Langzhong couldn't hold it, Shu County was lost early, and now the key points of Bashu have fallen into the hands of Li Xinchen.

Although Sword Pavilion and other places are easy to defend and difficult to attack, but this is also in the case of sufficient supplies of grain, grass and baggage, and you must know that these things can originally rely on Bashu, but now they can only be transported from Hanzhong through the plank road, after all, there is not much place near Sword Pavilion that can be used for reclamation, and this means that the number of defenders cannot be too much.

Therefore, Wei Shou is now worried not only about the battle situation in Cangxi Valley, but also about the direction of the entire Bashu battle situation in the future.

In this battle, Wei Xiaokuan and Wei Chi Yu fought side by side, but in the end they ended up with such a result, how can it not be embarrassing?

Another battle report sent from the Central Plains was placed on Wei Shou's table, Wang Liang in the direction of Huaibei played remarkably, and Gao Xi, Han Baohu and He Ruobi and others in the direction of Xiangyang also fought well, so that Xiao Maha had to retreat to the south bank of the water and take a stubborn posture.

But compared with these two battlefields, Bashu can only be described as "failure".

How will this affect the game in the court, Wei Shou doesn't want to care and care, what he is worried about is the future of the Wei family, no matter what the court is or what the battlefield is, the Wei family can't fall, and the Cangxi Valley must be opened.

"General, let's send troops to Mianzhu Pass, at least we can let Pei Zilie restrain a little!" An adjutant general couldn't help but speak, "Obviously, Pei Zilie's troops are not as good as ours, and there are many prisoners of war who have been trained in the whole train, but now he is showing off his power outside, and he has to teach him a lesson!" ”

"Yes, General, we can't just hold back and endure it!"

Several generals chimed in.

And Wei Shou glanced at them and said in a cold voice: "Why did we retreat from Mianzhu Pass, have you all forgotten?!" ”

The generals were all stunned, and subconsciously glanced at each other with solemn expressions.

Mianzhu Pass is still a rugged road away from the Sword Pavilion, in the absence of sufficient support and supplies, attacking Mianzhu Pass is tantamount to self-defeating, because it is easy to be counterattacked back by the enemy of Shu County, which is why Wei Shou decisively gave up Mianzhu Pass and retreated north, after all, once it was blocked by Pei Zilie, who was familiar with the terrain of Mianzhu Pass, then it would be really difficult to escape.

At least now Wei Shoutun Bing Sword Pavilion can still guard the flanks and entrances of Cangxi Valley, and it also avoids Li Xinchen's ill intentions towards the Sword Pavilion - others definitely don't have the courage to directly fight the Sword Pavilion, but now everyone knows that as long as others dare not do it, Li Xinchen will do it nine times out of ten.

"We should go to Cangxi Valley now, not Mianzhuguan." Wei Shou said decisively, "Cangxi Valley is the real battlefield. Cao Xiaoda can shrink, but we can't, pass the order down, the forward will rectify first, and set off after two hours, and the mountains and forests around these road checkpoints will be cleared! ”

The generals subconsciously glanced at each other, obviously Cangxi Valley was the decisive battle chosen by Li Xinchen, it stands to reason that they should not take the initiative to go to Cangxi Valley to fight Li Xinchen, but now they have no other choice, at least Wei Shou is on the north side, Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan are on the south side, Li Xinchen is sandwiched in the middle, how can it be so easy to win.

"How?" Wei Shou raised his eyebrows.

"No!" The generals hurriedly surrendered their hands.

——————————————-

A soft "snap" broke the strange silence in the tent.

Pei Zilie put down the brush in his hand, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, right in front of him, a map near the Sword Pavilion was hanging, Pei Zilie didn't know how many times he had looked at this map in the past few days, but the stalemate in front of him still made him a little helpless.

"General!" Xu Deyan stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the tent and strode over, with an excited look on his face, "Wei Shou moved." ”

Pei Zilie Huo Ran stood up and chuckled: "This Wang Ba has finally probed." ”

If Pei Zilie is most worried about anything these days, it must be the battle on the Sword Pavilion's side, because only by containing Wei Shou can he effectively support Li Xinchen. However, although Wei Shou did not want to send troops to Cangxi Valley, he also did not have the idea of going out of the city to compete with Pei Zilie.

Wei Shou just cowered in the city, and Pei Zilie could only stare outside the city, after all, what about the troops under his command Pei Zilie still had a little number in his heart, he was now just relying on the troops of Shu County to pull up a show, and the ones who could really fight were actually Chen Zhishen's subordinates and Pei Zilie's own command.

In addition, the grain, grass and baggage were not sufficient, but Pei Zilie actually did not have the capital to attack such a Xiongguan as the Sword Pavilion at all except for his bluff.

Of course, if Wei Shou insisted on going out of the city to fight, Pei Zilie would not be without this courage.
