Chapter 643: Turbid Water

And the state, Huguan.

Jiang Wei's army is stationed here, since the capture of Hanoi, Liu Yi's side has been quiet, until Li Yan came to start attacking Wei County, and the state side was because the main force was transferred, Jiang Wei invaded Hedong, he triumphed all the way, Shangdang, Jinyang, Leping County was captured successively, Jiang Wei was not in a hurry to continue to go north, to the north is Yanmen Pass, this place is not only a fortress, the most important thing is that this is the throat of the north, a careless, may let the Hu people outside the pass enter the pass, even if it can be captured, But Jiang Wei only has 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and he is not sure that he can fill the vacancy as soon as possible.

The attitude of the Han towards foreigners has always been very clear, and before he puts down the weapons in his hands and becomes his own people, the enemy cannot tolerate it in the slightest.

Even if he takes Yanmen County, if he lets Xianbei people enter the customs because of this, let alone what will happen in the court, he will not be able to pass this pass in his own heart.

And this season, it is the time when the Xianbei people go south most frequently, so after Jiang Wei captured Leping County, he was not radical, but took the initiative to move the army back to Huguan and stationed here, while accumulating strength, stabilizing the land of the four counties that had been captured, posting a list to calm the people, and restore order, but also to recuperate and wait for the opportunity.

Although there are still the armies of Pang De and Ma Dai in Yunzhou to contain the Xianbei people, the biggest difference between the Hu people and the Han people is that their system is destined to be unable to be as concentrated as the Han army, and the army will be quite loose, which is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing, Pang De and Ma Dai can play a certain deterrent role, but if the Yanmen Pass is really released, the Xianbei people will still go south.

It is already very good that 10,000 horses can capture the land of the four counties, so Jiang Wei decided to station his troops in Huguan first, even if Leping County is a buffer zone, it will not force the defenders of Yanmen County to mess up.

"Dudu, this is the turbid water, which can cross the Taihang Mountains and reach Yecheng!" Looking at Liu Yi, Jiang Wei couldn't help but say: "But there is no land route on this road, only a waterway, the narrowest point, only less than two zhang wide, if the logistics are transported from Huguan, it is quite laborious, why should the governor take risks?" ”

Liu Yi has always sought stability in wars, this is a well-known thing, he doesn't understand why Liu Yi gave up the main army this time and personally led a brigade to attack Yecheng, which is not in line with Liu Yi's style.

"The main force of the Wei army has been pinned down by Li Yan, and this moment is when Yecheng is the weakest." Liu Yi shook his head and said, "If this battle can break through Yecheng, then the Central Plains can be determined!" ”

Liu Yi sighed, he didn't want to take risks, but the current opportunity is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if it is a pit dug by Sima Yi, Liu Yi also wants to break through, not to mention, he doesn't believe that Sima Yi will take the national fortune of Great Wei to risk, he bets that Sima Yi has fallen into his own mindset, thinking that Liu Yi will never take risks, the empty door behind is not Sima Yi who took the initiative to leak out, but inadvertently leaked out, with Sima Yi's character, Yecheng must have protection, and it will not be too little, but what Liu Yi brought this time is the elite of the elite, And three thousand pairs of rattan armor!

With these horses, even if the siege fails, there are many chances to retreat.

There must be risks, but if it succeeds, it can directly determine the general trend of the world, and it was originally planned to spend three years to attack Wei, maybe it can be won in half the time, such an opportunity, can you not be moved?

Anyway, Liu Yi can't help but be moved, he has been a turtle all his life, this last battle has been arranged so much, what about one wave?

Jiang Wei said solemnly when he heard this: "I don't know if there is a place for the last general to serve?" ”

"Yes." Liu Yi nodded: "You lead 5,000 soldiers and horses as the backyard, I have checked the map of this area, along the way of this turbid Zhangshui, there is only one place in the Huangyao Yi, take it here, and then use this as the base, ready to respond, if I fail to break through Yecheng, whether I can come back safely is on you." ”

Jiang Wei suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier, this was a matter of Liu Yi's life and death, who knew that Liu Yi was playing so big this time?

However, as Liu Yi said, if this battle can be successful, not to mention the capture of Emperor Wei, even if Yecheng can be captured and Emperor Wei has to move the capital, it will definitely change the current general trend of the world, the entire Jizhou can be won at least half, and the Wei Dynasty will be divided into two with the Yellow River as the boundary, and then the imperial court will send another team of men and horses to attack Cao Shuang, then Cao Shuang will have to kneel even if he has three heads and six arms, no wonder Liu Yi, the thousand-year-old turtle, will be tempted.

"Don't worry, the last general will die, and the governor must be protected." Jiang Wei said solemnly.

"Don't say it's so serious, although it is a surprise attack, but since I came by myself, I naturally made all preparations, not only are the soldiers on this expedition the most elite Wudang Flying Army, except for the three thousand pairs of rattan armor, all weapons and armor are built by me personally." Liu Yi said with a smile.

What's more, his armor is also the latest, and it doesn't matter what the weapons are, but the armor is +69 extremely strong, and the materials are also the best, this kind of armor, you just have no problem walking in the opponent's arrow array, even the mask is made of soft steel made by Liu Yi himself, accompanied by strong and tough glass, and there is no place to accommodate the arrow clusters all over the body.

It's a pity that the cost is too expensive, and Liu Yi can't equip everyone, otherwise, it would be enough for such an army to appear on the battlefield, carry a knife and ignore the formation, and directly charge the enemy into the enemy formation.

"It's no easier to break through my armor than it is to break through a wall!" Liu Yi said confidently.

Jiang Wei: "......"

Of course, if you take a hammer to hammer, or if you fall into the water and no one saves you, then it's basically over, at least with the current technology in this world, there is no way to make armor that really defends against all attacks, even if the hammer can't break the helmet, but the concussive power alone can stun people.

However, in this year, the weapons are still mainly spears and swords, and there are not many heavy weapons.

"Governor, the ship has been built!" Ma Qiu came in and bowed to Liu Yi.

"I'll wait first, and then Boyo will capture the kiln, and I'll leave Udang to help you, he has a talent for building and can help you solve some problems." Liu Yi nodded and looked at Jiang Weidao.

"Don't worry!" Jiang Wei bowed and said.

It's just a small town, as far as he knows, it belonged to the Black Mountain Army, and was later occupied by Yuan Shao, after the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao unified the north, and the strategic significance here is gone, and now I am afraid that there is no garrison.

Occupation is not a problem, the most important thing is to prevent the people of the Mill Kiln Eup from spreading the news, so after occupying the Millet Kiln Eup, it is necessary to quickly cordon off the surroundings to prevent anyone from escaping.

The boat is made by Liu Yi these days, it is not big, and the big boat can't go in this kind of small ditch, about nine feet wide, and only one zhang long, if a boat even carries people and supplies, it can carry three people, and you have to sit and sleep at night, 8,000 people, about 3,000 boats, this kind of environment, don't expect any water fights, if you really encounter danger, you can jump ashore in one step.

Of course, the shore here is intermittent, and there is no connecting land route at all, so except for the more difficult conditions, there is no need to think too much about safety.

……

On the other side, after Sima Yi completely abandoned Liyang, he quickly retreated his army to Neihuang, which was the battlefield selected by Sima Yi, Neihuang was surrounded by water on three sides, no matter which side Li Yan wanted to attack from, he must cross the river, of course, the river was not wide, and Li Yan only needed to cross the river quickly as he had when he attacked Baimajin before.

However, this time, Sima Yi was obviously not as good at talking as the previous two times, and a lot of preparations were prepared here, and Ma Jun was sent away by Sima Yi earlier, so he came to prepare in advance.

"Father, if you want to use water, why bother to build so many things here?" Taking advantage of the fact that Wei Yan's army had not yet arrived, Sima Shi accompanied Sima Yi to inspect along the river, looking at the strangely shaped catapults erected, Sima Shi was a little curious.

These catapults are like waterwheels, some of them are also modeled after the hydraulic drive of the Han Dynasty, and they can send stones in a row, although they can launch some stone bricks, but the range is very long, which is something that Ma Jun has studied over the years, but it has not been used by Sima Yi as a hole card.

Sima Shi felt that it was a bit of a waste to use these chain catapults here.

"If not, how can you let that Li Yan be fooled?" Sima Yi shook his head and smiled: "Li Yan is quite talented, and the army is not inferior to me, it is not easy to deceive this person, if you don't do it realistically, it is easy for him to see the clues!" ”

Last time, he failed to deceive Liu Yi, but was deceived by Liu Yi, Sima Yi is not a person who will be depressed and depressed about the past, he has been studying how to improve since then, and can deceive the opponent, this time, in order to successfully lead Li Yan to the bait, he has made full preparations, not only gave up a large part of the city, but also personally defeated three battles and three defeats, defeated by Li Yan's men in a row, giving Li Yan enough confidence, in order to let Li Yan take the bait, such a strict plan, can not be seen through by Li Yan in this most critical place, if the previous efforts are abandoned again, Sima Yi can't accept it even if he is big-hearted.

Sima Shi nodded, looked at the disc-shaped catapults, and said with a smile: "That pseudo-man has Liu Yi, I don't think Ma Jun may lose to this person, after this battle, can I help Ma Jun seek the position of the craftsman general?" ”

Cao Wei's system is different from that of the Han Dynasty, and now the Han Dynasty attaches great importance to craftsmen, and can even be incorporated into the official system, but although Cao Wei has also begun to attach importance to craftsmen, it is not easy for craftsmen to enter the office, even if it is a talented craftsman like Ma Jun, now he can only be regarded as an official, and the officialdom has always maintained an attitude of rejection towards the entry of craftsmen.

"It's not easy." Sima Yi sighed, this kind of thing, he naturally thought, it is not easy for an excellent master like Ma Jun not to be attracted by a pseudo-man, if possible, Sima Yi also wants to help him ask for an official position, but it is not easy to do this thing.
