Chapter 580: The Battle of the Trapped Beasts
Wei Yanjun failed to board the ship and withdraw the army, and it was difficult to travel by water, so he retreated by land, and the troops went to the direction of Huaili.
Guo Huai took advantage of the momentum to pursue, slowly approaching, and the fast horse spy and the city and county generals in Huaili behind the book guarded, intercepted and blocked, and captured and killed the Shu army.
Wei Military Division
"Report! , the Shu army retreated to the west of the avenue! "Scout returns.
"The avenue?" Guo Huai was puzzled, the other party should take the mountain road now, hide people's eyes and ears, avoid the probes, and bypass the county town. But taking the main road means that the enemy army knows what is going on.
Guo Huai sneered: "Are you at the end of the road?" It is faster to take the highway, for you do not have much food and grass now, and if there is no one to stop you from the marching road, you can leave the dangerous place before the food and grass are exhausted. ”
"Rise up! Chase it down! The Shu army is at the end of the road! Guo Huai urged, and after the army rested, they pursued day and night.
Shu Military Department
"Ahead is Huaili, where the Wei army is guarded. It is most appropriate for the general to change the mountain road and march. Xiahou Ba admonished.
Wei Yan glanced at the direction behind him and Guo Huai was chasing, and said in a deep voice: "Only take the avenue, not the mountain road." ”
Xiahouba: "Walking the avenue is fast, but dangerous, now that there is an enemy situation in front of you, the avenue will be attacked by the enemy." Guo Huai in the rear is pursuing day and night at this moment, and if our army is stopped by the enemy once, Guo Huai will immediately catch up, and there will be nowhere to escape at that time. Even if you escape, you will fight in it, lose food and grass, and stay for a long time, but you will still be dead. ”
Wei Yan praised: "You think very comprehensively, and you are really talented." ”
Xiahouba: "Praise falsely, general, change lanes." ”
Wei Yan smiled and said, "Let's go, Dadao." ”
Xiahouba: "......"
The march was not far away, and General Huaili Wei in front had already set up a formation to lead the army and block the road to blockade the avenue.
General Wei drank: "Shu thief, I already know the situation of your army." Dismount and surrender quickly, and don't kill those who surrender! ”
"Kill!" Wei Yan made a gesture and signaled to the generals, Guan Xing and Xiahou Ba rushed forward with him, and rushed to kill.
The three of them led their troops to rush straight to the Wei army leader, the general was afraid, and ordered to stop it, Wei Yan: "Cover me!" ”
Guan Xing and Xiahou Ba were killed left and right, very brave, the Wei soldiers who came to block were all killed and retreated, Wei Yan slashed all the way to the front of the Wei general, "Dismount!" ”
With a miserable shout, then Wei will be cut down. The Wei army lost its leading general, was attacked by the Shu army, and the formation gradually became chaotic and vulnerable.
The Shu army won a great victory, killed the enemy, and continued to retreat from Huaili.
When Guo Huai arrived, he saw a mess, and asked the surviving deputy general to know the situation, "It's still so brave to kill the enemy and break the formation, but you can be brave for a long time, chase!" ”
Wei Yan's army, still retreating from the avenue, the avenue enemy was difficult to ambush, so he had to face the battle head-on, and the army that came to meet the battle, Wei generals were not comparable to Wei Yan, Guan Xing, and Xiahouba.
"Just got the report, Guo Huaijun is behind, and it is closer. If he is stopped again, he will catch up immediately. Xiahouba said.
Wei Yan: "If you don't retreat next, the front is martial arts, and you will be stationed there and fight to the death." ”
"Huh?" Xiahouba was even more puzzled, he was still stationed in the village, and the grain and grass were not enough, so how could he be stationed in the village. "General, it's not enough to fight to the death."
Wei Yan smiled but said nothing.
Martial arts
Guo Huai learned that the Shu army was stationed there. "Stationed in the village? Running out of food? Ready to fight to the death? ”
The general said: "There are also our army defenders in that place, I am afraid that it will be warned, and it will be difficult to enter the army, so I have to be stationed in the village." ”
Guo Huai urged even more and led the army to rush there. The troops were stationed far away from the Shu army, and spies were sent out to explore the war.
The spies reported that Guo Huai knew his situation and was very satisfied. "Don't be in a hurry, it will take a few days, and then they will run out of food and grass." Guo Huai ordered that it was known that the other party was restrained by grain, so it was better to wait for it to run out.
After six days, the Shu army was still stationed. General Wei asked, "General, you can go to war at this time." The morale of the Shu army must be exhausted now, and the army is completely empty. If you don't fight, the other side will have a wave of hungry tigers and sheep, and the end of the road is a death fight. At that time, even if our army was victorious, it would be a great loss. ”
Guo Huai naturally knew that the other party would have a wave of counterattack in the final desperate situation, and before the other party decided to do so, he could easily win by extinguishing the fire.
"Calculating the time, even if there is more food and grass than imagined, it should be exhausted at this time, presumably the army has already been in civil strife because of this, and the army's spirit is unstable, so it can go to war. Notify the generals of the martial arts city in the rear to block the rear road of Wei Yanbing. ”
"Raise the army!"
Shu military village
Guo Huai led the army outside, ordered the soldiers to shout, and the Shu soldiers surrendered.
Wei Yan and Guan Xing went to the front of the village, which made people scold back. Defend and meet the battle at any time.
"It's good." Guo Huai saw the enemy's situation and smiled lightly, but he only felt that it was a pretentious gesture, but in fact, he was already exhausted.
"Attack the village!" With an order, the Wei soldiers clashed forward, strong crossbows and sharp blades, attacking and defending.
"Kill!" Attacked until sunset, the Shu military village was still unbreakable, and it did not leak.
Guo Huai was surprised, the morale of the Shu army was sharp, and it was not at all like he thought. The Wei army on the attacking side suffered heavy losses, and Guo Huai was unable to do so, so he had to withdraw his troops. The soldiers returned to the military village.
Wei Junzhai
"How did Wei Yan solve the problem of grain and grass, and why is the Shu army still so strong. The Last Trap? Guo Huai was puzzled.
The general said: "Our army will delay for a few more days, and see." ”
Guo Huai suddenly felt that something was wrong, "I can't drag it out, immediately raise the army, retreat back, stay away from the Shu army, and enter the mountain!" ”
The generals will not know why the Lord is so panicked.
Guo Huai: "He took the road of the avenue, that is, in order to fight easily, our army is also stationed in the avenue, now the enemy is in full swing, our army is lured by it to attack, greatly damage the momentum of the troops, if he comes to attack at this time, he will not be able to resist." If our army is defeated, it will not be able to pursue, and Wei Yan can fight all the way back to Chencang. ”
"Now withdraw the troops and station them in a safe place, and if it takes a few more days, he will run out of food."
When the generals heard the order, they immediately gave the order to abandon the village and return to the mountain road.
Wei Yan and Guan Xing led the army to kill, Wei Yan and the soldiers said, the next battle, the final decisive battle, will defeat the Wei army, capture and kill Guo Huai. The soldiers believed in it, and their morale was very strong.
When the Shu army arrived, Guo Huai was withdrawing his troops.
"Guo Huai, where to go!" Wei Yan shouted.
Although Guo Huai was angry, he couldn't, the other party was unstoppable at the moment, it was better to stay away first, and after a few days, the situation reversed. "Don't fight, just retreat into the mountains!"
The Shu soldiers chased and killed the Wei soldiers, killing a lot.
Wei Yan: "Chasing, going into the mountains, during the Guo Huai period, there was no way." ”
Guo Huai led the men and horses all the way into the mountains, ran the mountain road, and gradually felt at ease. knew that the Shu army would not be able to catch up.
Guo Huai asked the generals to count the weight of the men and horses, "It's still successful, it's enough to fight." ”
The soldiers marched together, and the crossbowmen who were ambushed left and right in the dark places of the mountains came out together, and ten thousand arrows were fired, severely hitting the frightened Wei soldiers.
Guo Huai was suddenly affected by this, and he did not expect it, so he hurriedly commanded.
The Wei soldiers were in chaos for a while, and at the turn of the mountain road, Xiahou Ba led his troops to kill, "Guo Huai, take your life!" ”。
Guo Huai was angry, and since there were Shu soldiers in ambush on the mountain retreat, he completely forgot to be on guard. Previously, Wei Yan had been taking the avenue retreat, and there were no scouts sent on this side of the mountain road. And he didn't expect that he would be defeated and retreat into the mountains to hide from the enemy. Wei Yan retreated from the Great Dao, leaving Xiahou Ba to ambush here, which is today.
Guo Huai: "Break through with me!" The last order was to go on the killing.
