Changan

Wei Yan, Guan Xing, Xiahou Ba and others will take Weishui, cross the enemy city, and approach Chang'an City not far away.

At this time, the army and the city called for battle.

"Guo Huai! Come out and surrender! The Shu soldiers had to shout.

Guo Huai and Zhong Yu in the city were watching down, Zhong Yu sighed, "The momentum is mighty, the morale is extremely strong, can this be kept?" ”

Guo Huai said confidently: "This can rest assured, with me here, and according to the fortified city of Chang'an, it is difficult for Shu thieves to attack." "The Shu army came from afar, and there was not much grain and grass, only one month, which was enough to be exhausted. At that time, I will lead the army into battle again, and cooperate with the soldiers and horses of the cities and counties in the rear, but I can defeat the enemy greatly. ”

Zhong Yu praised, "With the general's words, I don't worry." ”

Guo Huai didn't expect Zhong Yu either, if his father Zhong Yu was alive and well, he could rely on it.

The Shu army under the city called for battle, but the Wei soldiers did not respond, but only made a defensive posture.

"There are a lot of Wei soldiers in the city, besieged and besieged, and when the food and grass are exhausted, they will definitely go to war." Wei Yan ordered, knowing that it would be a disadvantageous move to storm Chang'an City, and if the other party did not come out, it would be besieged and consumed, and the enemy would naturally fight if he couldn't help it.

"General, I'm afraid we'll run out of food first." Xiahou Ba said. Wei Yan chased all the way down the river, he came too quickly, and the grain and grass were not replenished, and it was still the previous ones, which would last for a month at most.

Wei Yan: "What you are worried about, you will do it according to my orders, although you will do it." ”

Guan Xing: "Yes! "Directly lead the troops to the other gate to surround it, and Wu Ban also led the troops to leave. Xiahou Ba still stayed in place, although he wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say to be useful, sighed, and led his troops away.

The two people in the city saw what Wei Yan had done at a glance.

Zhong Yu said worriedly: "The Shu army does not plan to attack, but wants to besiege the city and trap us." ”

Guo Huai said calmly: "As relieved as possible, it's still the same sentence, the Shu army's grain and grass can't consume us." There are only two situations in the battle, one is that the food and grass will be exhausted, and the city will be attacked with all its might. The second is to retreat and leave. Either way, our army is a complete victory. ”

Zhong Yu asked again: "What if the Shu army brings food supplies?" ”

Guo Huai: "My spies have reported that the Shu army is in the area of Tianshui County, so the supply of grain and grass is a lot. But if you want to send it to the current Wei Yanjun, within a month, you must go by water. The Weishui county will be blocked by waterway and attacked by fire, even if the Shu army's grain ships will never pass. ”

Zhong Yu suddenly, "Wonderful strategy, Weishui comes all the way, the battle line is long, the Shu army can be blocked in one place, and it is sad to say a second time, and then the general only attacks the grain ship with fire, ignoring the warship." The Shu army must have a headache. ”

In the following days, the Shu army deployed defenses in all directions of Chang'an City, blocking all passages to here. At first, the people in Chang'an City panicked, but after the Zhong family pacified, everything calmed down as usual.

In the rear of the Shu army, the Wei army in the cities and counties of Fufeng County learned that Wei Yan had attacked under the city of Chang'an, and did not directly transfer troops to help. The main general Guo Huai did not write a letter to ask for troops, and secondly, once the army was transferred to leave the city, the Shu army in the west of Yongzhou would take advantage of the weakness to enter and capture the county seat. There are also those who fish in troubled waters, seeing that the situation in Wei is now unfavorable, they do not want to participate in the war, and they are still living and dying by the two phases.

Xiahou Ba has been besieging the city for these days, and he has been thinking about how to break through the city.

"These days, the defenders of the city are not as good as the first few days, and they are gradually slackening, and if they find a very weak point, they may attack it and open the city gates." Xiahou Ba said to himself.

Now that the situation is like this, it can only be like this, so I will look for Wei Yan. Discuss the matter.

"What does the general think?" Xiahou Ba asked.

Wei Yan: "It's hard to succeed, it will only damage my military strength, and continuing to defend is the right way." ”

Xiahouba: "General, time is running out. If it continues to be consumed, it may have to be withdrawn. ”

Wei Yan: "For the victory of the war, it is often in danger. ”

Xiahou Ba was speechless, he didn't want to talk about it anymore, whatever.

About a month later

"The Shu army withdrew the besiegers on all sides of Chang'an, and has now retreated away." The spies reported back to Guo Huai.

"Good! And so it was! Guo Huai was overjoyed, and the facts were as expected.

Zhong Yu asked: "It seems that the Shu army has no intention of storming the city, shouldn't it be stormed, and then leave if it is not broken?" ”

Guo Huai said with a smile: "At this time, the grain and grass will be exhausted, and the Shu soldiers will have no morale, and the strong attack will be broken." Wei Yan knew this and saved his strength so that he could leave. ”

Zhong Yu: "I see, what is the general going to do now?" ”

Guo Huai: "I have already said, when I come here, don't want to leave with my whole body." At this time, Wei Yanding wanted to borrow Weishui by boat. We led our army to attack the entrance of the ship, forcing it to take the land route. If you go back by land, the grain and grass will not be enough, and you will meet the Wei army of my book order on the way, and you will be surrounded by the front and back, and you will be defeated. ”

After that, Guo Huai immediately transferred troops.

Zhong Yu saw him leave and immediately went to find his father.

"Father, Guo Huai has transferred troops out of the city." Zhong Yu reports.

Zhong Xuan: "Send someone to find out who wins." ”

Zhong Hui, a young boy on the side, said, "Don't probe, Wei Yan must have won." ”

Zhong Miao asked with a smile: "Shi Ji, how do you say this." ”

Zhong Hui smiled and replied, "Feeling." ”

Zhong Yu was jealous of this younger brother. As a child, he is very intelligent and has hidden scheming. What kind of person will he be in the future? People who want to be such a prodigy since childhood, vaguely remember a very famous one, Cao Mengde's youngest son Cao Chong, but he died early.

If my younger brother dies early, it may be the luck of the Zhong family.

Zhong Yu replied, "Father, I'll send someone." ”

At this time, the Shu army, Wei Yanzheng led the troops to the previous landing port, preparing to return to Chencang by boat.

"Hurry up! When the Wei army learns the news, they will definitely come to stop it! Wu Ban shouted.

Xiahou Ba only felt inexplicable, he came from afar along the river, surrounded for a month, and did not achieve anything, so he would go back. It's better to follow the step-by-step process, slowly capture all parts of Fufeng City County, and then march here.

"Shu thief leave!" There was a shout from the rear, the dust was flying, and Guo Huai hurried to arrive. At this time, the Wei army was extremely vigorous, and they all knew the situation of the Shu army at this time, and the soldiers were so angry.

Xiahouba: "It's too late to board!" "Looking around at this situation, the rest of the grain and grass have not been transported.

Wei Yan shouted: "Fight!" ”

The Shu soldiers who were about to leave learned that they were going to fight, and in a hurry, they set up a formation to meet them.

"Kill!" The two armies killed each other, at the mouth of the waterfront.

The momentum of the Wei army completely overwhelmed the Shu army, and the state was far superior.

"Guo Huai, take your life!" Xiahou Ba drove his horse to kill, for Xiahou Ba, the rest can be indifferent, but Guo Huai wants to kill, and the revenge is to be avenged.

"Khooth!" Guo Huai had no choice but to fight, "Your army has been defeated, and you can't go back this time!" ”

Xiahou Ba shouted angrily: "So what, if I kill you, it doesn't matter whether I live or die." ”

Xiahou Ba is extremely powerful, and he attacks like a life. Guo Huai felt that something was wrong, he would win this battle, there was no need to fight with this impulsive guy, and then he shook a shot, Xiahou Ba defended and hidden, and when he came back to his senses, Guo Huai had joined the chaotic army.

"Guo Huaixiu is leaving!" Xiahou Ba shouted angrily and wanted to chase him, but the enemy blocked him and made it difficult to pursue.

The Wei soldiers were strong, the Shu soldiers were defeated, and the more they fought, the more unfavorable they became. Seeing the situation, Wu Ban shouted to Wei Yan: "General, the enemy is too strong, and if you continue to fight, it will be unfavorable!" ”

Wei Yan saw it and ordered to drink: "Withdraw the army!" ”

As soon as the military ordered, the Shu army abandoned the ship and left, took the grain and grass and baggage under the cover of Guan Xing and Wu Ban, and fled to the west.

Everything was as Guo Huai expected, and the goal was achieved, as long as the Shu army could not board the ship and retreated by land, the strategy would be successful.

Guo Huai: "It's okay, poor Kou Mo chase!" ”

Hurriedly ordered to stop the pursuit, it was no longer necessary, Guo Huai knew that at this time, the Shu army had no way to escape, and after the whole army rested, he would capture and kill them.
