Chapter 2o7 The water is rising

Since Guo Rong ascended the throne as the head of the camp on the southwest road and the king of Jin, he abolished the official positions of the Fengxiang Jiedu envoy and other official positions in Guanzhong. And now Feng Xiang's guard is Feng Xiang's assassin Guo Changling, this person's name is not obvious, he is indeed from the white-clothed army with Miao Hong, and he followed Guo Rong and Zhao Kuangyin to fight the battle of Mayi! It can be regarded as a battle-hardened battle, at least this person is not afraid of war!

But in the past two days, Guo Changling's life has not been very good. Why? The Chu army attacked. originally thought that the Chu army that was present in Xingyuan Mansion was a trick and a trick of the Shu State, but who knew that before he could confirm whether the news was true, Baoji City would be lost. Of course, the current Baoji County cannot be compared with the time of Wang Jingchong's rebellion, at that time there were many Han troops in Guanzhong, and the small Baoji City could be stationed with 5ooo people. It is difficult to move an inch to be able to be a Shu army. But now it can't be done, the number of troops in Guanzhong has decreased, and it is mainly concentrated in Shangzhou to defend against Chu. In the entire Fengxiang Prefecture, there are only 15,000 people in the five counties of one state (the remaining two counties are the back of Fengxiang, not to mention).

Regarding the 10,000 5ooo men, Guo Changling's garrison plan has also been repeatedly scrutinized. He stationed his main army of 10,000 men in Tianxing, while the rest of his men and horses were scattered in the other five county towns. Why did he arrange his army like this? On the one hand, because the military strength of the Shu army faced by Fengxiang is weak, even Baoji, which is the brunt of it, does not need to garrison a large army; On the other hand, because Tianxing is between Baoji and Yixian, even if the Shu army takes Baoji, the target of its next attack must be Tianxing City, not Yixian? Why? If the Zhou army of Tianxing City went south, wouldn't it become a closed door and a dog?

But now, what made Guo Changling unstable was the actions of the Chu army. It took only one day for the Chu army to break through Baoji City. Moreover, the Chu army also pressed towards Yixian non-stop. How many Chu troops were in Baoji City, the spies of the Zhou army could not accurately determine, but the men and horses of the Chu army attacking Yixian County could basically be determined, about 30,000 people.

Combined with the fact that a few days ago, the Chu soldiers and horses who passed through Xingyuan Mansion were also about 30,000. Guo Changling had reason to believe that the Chu army's brigade had already pressed towards Yixian. However, isn't the Chu army afraid that I will send troops to Baoji and cut off their back road? It is true that the number of his own army is inferior to that of the Chu army. However, 1ooo people guarding the city and 1oooo people guarding the city are two completely different concepts. Moreover, the mountains around Fengxiang are steep, if Guo Changling really recaptures Baoji, then his 30,000-strong Chu army can still fly away?

has his own 1ooooo men and horses in Tianxing, why does his Chu army have such courage to dare to attack Yixian? Chu Jun's cards were not played according to the rules, which made Guo Changling very entangled. He wanted to send troops and close the return route of the Chu army with lightning speed. However, he was afraid that Chu Jun was deliberately setting a trap by doing this. Its purpose is to frame itself from Fengxiang City, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

So, Guo Changling waited for a day. However, the military report he received was that Yixian County was also lost, and the Chu army divided into two roads and went south along the Wei River!

"Smack". Guo Changling took the case. He was a little angry, Chu Jun's group of bastards didn't take him seriously at all. Are these people crazy? They are not afraid that they will cut off their way back, and General Gao will lead the army from Chang'an, and when the time comes, they will get the Chu army to a situation where there is a blockade in front and a chasing army in the back, so they are not afraid of being attacked on their backs?

"Here comes the map!" Guo Changling shouted loudly and scolded his pro-army. It is precisely because of his background in the white-clothed army that Gao Huaide does not say anything to him, and does not hide many things from him. The good fighting of the Chu army and the cunning of the generals of the Chu army, Guo Changling has also heard a lot. He couldn't believe that the other person was crazy, so he could only convince himself to try to imagine the other person's train of thought.

Facing the map of Fengxiang, Guo Changling couldn't figure it out, but when he looked away from Fengxiang, he was Huo Ran cheerful in front of him, damn, could it be... Could it be that Chu Jun is so desperate, in fact, it is not for me Fengxiang, but for Guanzhong, is it Meridian Valley and Xunshui City? This Meridian Valley was originally a key road for Shu to go north to Guanzhong, but the last time the Shu army was defeated, and even most of the fortresses around the Meridian Valley were lost, otherwise, the Chu army could go out of the Meridian Valley from Jinzhou. If the Chu army was not heading for Chang'an City, but towards the Meridian Valley, under the combined attack of the inside and outside, would it allow the Chu army to regain control of this important road? If the Chu army controls the Meridian Valley, it will also pose a threat to the Guanzhong region. Xunshui City is located in the northeast of Jinzhou, it is built in the Qinling Mountains, and it is also the main road from Jinzhou to Guanzhong. In other words, last year, the two armies had a big battle in Jinzhou and Junzhou, and the state of Chu seemed to have won Jinzhou, but in fact it did not realize his real strategic intentions, and he did not get the way into Guanzhong.

"Could it be that this time the Chu army sent troops from Fengzhou, and it wanted to go straight to Qinling and engage in this internal and external cooperation?" Guo Changling pondered and said, in this way, his Fengxiang is safe, but if the Chu army succeeds, then the entire Guanzhong will be dangerous! After all, in Guanzhong, the number of the Zhou army is smaller than the number of the Chu army!

Guo Changling pressed his beard desperately, rubbing it back and forth, and finally, he turned his head and shouted: "Someone, the general is here!" This kid is not very literate, he asked the military commander to write a letter to Gao Huaide, the head of the camp on the southwest road, instead of him, analyzing a consideration of his actions of the Chu army, and finally said that he was ready to lead his men and horses out of the city and seize Yixian, and followed behind the Chu army, put pressure on the Chu army, and asked Gao Huaide to lead the army to intercept the Chu army in the Meridian Valley, and use force to completely defeat the Chu army in Guanzhong!

After writing it, Guo Changling beat the drum to gather the generals and assign tasks. He only had hundreds of soldiers to defend the city, and he led 1oooo men and horses to the south and went straight to Yixian. This Guo Changling can be regarded as a responsible person, he doesn't have much capital in his own hands, since he wants to be small and big, he can only use his best. If you leave a few thousand men and horses to guard Tianxing City. With the enemy outnumbered, how can he deal with the Chu army. If Chu Jun turned around, wouldn't he have eaten him!

Guo Changling urged the army to go straight to Yixian all the way. Along the way, he also sent a lot of scouts to reconnoiter the situation along the way. It's just that in the territory of Fengxiang, the Qinling Mountains and Longshan meet, although there is no towering mountain, but there are many mountain buns, and these scouts are nothing more than reconnaissance along the road, it is difficult, and it is impossible to search all the valleys!

He sent troops in the starry night, relying on the bright moonlight of the bright moon in the sky, and marched towards Yixian, but for an hour, he heard the sound of flowing water in front of him, which is different from Baoji, Baoji is north of Weishui, and Yixian is in the south of Weishui. To attack Yixian, the only way to attack is to cross the river first. Although Weishui is a major tributary of the Yellow River, the rivers in the north are very different from those in the south, where there is less rainfall and less runoff.

Guo Changling has been in Fengxiang for a long time, so he naturally knows where the Wei River is shallow enough to cross the river. At that moment, he led the army towards the shallow water. When he arrived at the river, Guo Changling looked at the water potential and asked his own soldiers a little strangely: "I remember that there was a heavy rain half a month ago, why is the Wei River so shallow today?" ”

"General, this rain fell half a month ago, and the surging river has not subsided, so it has become shallow." The pro-soldiers stayed by his side all day, and the contact with the outside was the pro-soldiers of some big people. These people basically have no understanding of the rise and fall of Weishui.

"Well... Let the army cross the river! Guo Changling was a little puzzled in his heart, but the night was blank, and it was quiet in private, only the lights of Yixian County occasionally flickered in the distance, and the third watch of the army ran for nearly a hundred miles in the middle of the night, how could he go back because of such inexplicable doubts!

The "whooshing" people entered the river, and the sound of the water was even louder. The water here is indeed a little shallower, and the sergeant in front has already reached the river, but the river water is only up to the thighs, which is much shallower than in previous years!

"Whoa~~~~"

Guo Changling was a little hesitant, but he looked at the sergeant who had already landed on the other side, and he still didn't speak.

"Be careful, the current is fast." A sergeant reminded loudly.

"What?" Guo Changling's heart moved, and his eyes stared at Weishui without moving for a moment.

With a "poof", a sergeant accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the water, and in the blink of an eye, he had already been washed away.

"The river is rising!" A sergeant said. The sergeants who went down to the river saw that the situation was not good, and they crowded towards the riverbank, but the sergeants on the riverbank did not know the situation. This time. The water is even more urgent, and even the shore just now has been hidden by the water.

The sergeants were not stupid either, and soon the situation was revealed, and the sergeants leaning against the river bank shouted "The embankment has burst, retreat!" They squeezed even more desperately to the back!

"The army pauses!" Guo Changling said loudly. But by this time, there were not many sergeants willing to listen to his command.

Just when Guo Changling was trying to control the army, he could only hear the sound of gongs and drums around him, and the entire Wei River was suddenly plunged into a shouting and killing sound! I saw that in the valleys on both sides of the river, the lanterns and torches were as bright as day at this time, and I didn't know how many people and horses came from the other side, so I saw dozens of teams scattered in dozens of valleys on both sides of the strait, forming dozens of huge fire dragons, swarming towards the Zhou army.
