Chapter 109: The Peacock's Last Period (2)
On November 1, the scouts sent by Zhuge Zhan returned to Fucheng. It brought a bad news and a "good" news to Zhuge Zhan.
The bad news: Deng Aijun has seized An Changting. There was no longer any obstacle for the Wei army to enter the CD Plain. The "good" news was that the Wei army was obviously underwhelmed, with only about 10,000 men. And there were no warhorses in sight.
"Hahaha, I'll just say, if Deng Ai wants to get out of such a difficult Jinggu Road, this force must not be too much. Otherwise, there will simply not be enough food! And because the road was too difficult, even the cavalry was not brought! Hum! Such an army, we can destroy it with one blow! ”
After all, Yan Yu was an old soldier who had followed Zhao Yun, he couldn't be as frivolous as Zhuge Zhan, and after listening to the scout's report, he asked again, "When did this Deng Ai arrive at Anchang Pavilion?" ”
"Well, my subordinates found the local people and asked, it was in the early morning of October 29."
"What?!" Hearing this answer, Yan Yu was very surprised: "You didn't hear it wrong? ”
"General Right, this matter is very important, how dare your subordinates lie?"
"Are you saying that the army of the puppet Wei took Jiangyou in the early morning of the 28th and arrived at Anchang Pavilion in the early morning of the 29th?"
"Uh, yes."
"You...... Hey, let me ask you again, what did the puppet Wei army do on the day they stayed in Anchangting? ”
"The subordinates got very close and did see something. Well, it seems that quite a few grain trucks entered the military camp of the puppet Wei from outside. ”
"Hiss~~~ Okay, you go down."
After watching the scout retreat with confusion, Yan Yu's forehead was already drenched in cold sweat, and after he took a few steps back, he sat weakly on the soft chair.
"Wenping? What are you? ”
"Elite, really elite! Our army is not as good as it! Sure enough, as Bozhong said, the people's hearts are not in me~~~"
"You mean?"
"Hey, my General Wei, didn't you hear me clearly? The army of the puppet Wei fought during the day, and that night they traveled more than 100 miles to seize Anchang Pavilion. Compared to our army? Fucheng is only a few dozen miles away from Anchang Pavilion, and it took three days for this group of scouts to go back and forth?! Even if you have to spend time digging for information, it won't be like this, right? Also, the frequent entry and exit of grain trucks in the barracks shows something? It shows that the Yizhou family is really supporting the army of the puppet Wei! ”
"Huh?!"
How so? Wasn't that the case when my father was alive? Wherever I went when I was a child, the local people and officials gave me a thumbs up desperately when they heard that I was the son of the prime minister! How can you do this! I'm the prime minister's son!
"Fortunately, there are not many troops in this Deng Ai. Our army is not yet in a desperate situation. There are three things that need to be done. ”
"Uh...... General Right, those three things? ”
Finally know that I am the right general, and the title is actually above you? Of course, at this time, Yan Yu didn't bother to worry about this with Zhuge Zhan: "First, immediately send a messenger to CD to inform the military of the urgency, and let CD immediately order the soldiers of Nanzhong and Fuling to come to the rescue." Second, send an envoy to the Sword Pavilion to inform the general of the urgent military situation here, and ask the general to draw a small number of troops and horses back to support. Third, there is no danger to defend around this Fucheng, and our army should quickly retreat to Mianzhu. Rely on the Chapan Mountain in the north of Mianzhu City to defend the danger and wait for rescue! ”
“…… Okay, just follow the right general. ”
……
At the same time, Anchangjeong.
"Come, come, generals, let's have a cup together. These days, if it weren't for Youran's great help, we would not have been able to receive 50,000 stone of grain and grass in just a few days. Come, quietly, please bow down to Deng Ai! ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, Ma Miao salutes the generals. Hey, it's not that I, Ma Miao, as a Shu minister, didn't fulfill my duties. It's true, it's really our Yizhou people for more than 40 years, no, counting from Liu Yan and his son, in the past 70 years, we have really been bullied too hard! ”
"The heart of tranquility, heaven and earth can be learned! It's not that Youran has lost Liu's, but Liu's has lost Youran and Yizhou people! Rest assured, after I wait for the destruction of Shu this time, according to the nine-product Zhongzheng system of the imperial court, the governance of Yizhou must be decided by the people of Yizhou! And those so-called Jingzhou people and Dongzhou people must migrate to Luoyang! ”
"In this way, even if I am infamous for eternity, I will die without regrets! Woo woo woo ~ ~~ "
"Oh, mourning. If we can destroy Shu this time, the Yizhou Ma family, where the secluded place is located, will definitely be the top grade of Yizhou Jiupin. The joy is yet to come. ”
"In this way, Miao would like to wish General Zhengxi a succession in battles and complete his achievements in Shu!"
"To get this merit, you can't do without Youran's help."
"Otherwise, as long as General Zhengxi asks, Miao knows everything."
"Good, quiet, I'll ask you. Today, our army has entered the CD Plain, and the scouts of the Shu army two days ago have also seen our army. Based on Yu Ran's calculations, how will Yan Wenping and Zhuge Siyuan, who are now in Fucheng, deal with it? ”
"Well, if Zhuge Siyuan was leading the troops alone, it is estimated that he would hesitate to lead the army to fight with our army. But Yan Yu is by no means a mediocre general, if he can take charge, he will definitely send people to CD and Sword Pavilion for help respectively, and quickly withdraw from the endless and dangerous Fucheng. ”
"Hiss~~~ This is difficult. To tell the truth, Deng didn't take the 18,000 Shu army in his eyes. However, if Jiang Wei's main force in the Sword Pavilion came back, it would be really difficult. ”
Yes, it's really hard to do. On the one hand, the individual combat effectiveness of the Shu Han Mobile Corps was stronger than Deng Ai's Longxi Corps. On the other hand, Jiang Wei's main force retreated from the Sword Pavilion, wouldn't that give Zhong Hui a chance? So why am I risking my life to take this difficult road? Is it hard work to make a wedding dress for Zhong Hui again?
"Hehehe, general, please rest assured. At this moment, after the general entered the plain, the entire Yizhou native scholars were all rejoicing. Miao dared to assure the general that Zhuge Zhan's envoy would not be able to enter the Sword Pavilion or enter the CD! ”
"But you also said that when Dong Chongliang was in Jiangyou, there was a way to use flying pigeons to transmit messages......"
"I've already thought of this. At present, the Pang family of the Yizhou clan, who has lived in Fucheng for a long time, has sent a large number of generals who are proficient in archery in the Fucheng wilderness. Moreover, Fucheng is extremely far away from CD and Sword Pavilion, and flying pigeons cannot arrive at one time. All the families in the north and south of Fucheng have received the news that in addition to intercepting the messenger, they will also intercept and kill the flying pigeons. Now, Zhuge Zhan's army is the guest army! ”
(Guan Yi: You think too much, I haven't had time to lay a pigeon station in Jiange and Fucheng)
"Good! Wonderful! So, what should our army do next? ”
"If Yan Wenping leads the army to retreat, he is most likely to retreat to Chapan Mountain in the north of Mianzhu City to block our army. Once this place is broken, the road to the CD behind is a smooth road, and there is no hindrance. ”
"Uh, quietly, I have a question."
"Shi Sima, please speak?"
"I remember when I was a child, I heard my elders say that when Liu Xuande entered Sichuan to attack Liu Jiyu, he was blocked in Luocheng for a whole year. This...... The city is between Mianzhu and CD. ”
"Hehehe, Shi Sima. This Liu Bei entered Sichuan, it was fifty years ago. Since Liu Bei entered Sichuan fifty years ago, due to the northern line of his power advanced to Hanzhong, whether it is Luocheng or Mianzhu, all of them have become the mainland. So in the past 50 years, these cities have not been repaired or strengthened at all. Not to mention that it is not comparable to the two fortified cities of Hancheng and Lecheng in Hanzhong, even with Jiangyou, which was guarded some time ago. Otherwise, why do I say that Yan Wenping is very likely to give up Fucheng and retreat to Chapan Mountain in the north of Mianzhu City? It's because the walls of Fucheng haven't been repaired for decades, so they can't hold on to it at all. ”
"I see. Taught. ”
"Report ~~~ to the generals, the scouts of our army have been discovered. Two days ago, the Shu army had all withdrawn from Fucheng and retreated to the south! ”
"Good, it seems that everything is as expected! Well, quietly, this tea tray mountain ......"
"General, if you compare your strength now, our army will not be able to catch up with the front of the Shu army. Why don't you wait for two more days, let the rear team of the major general come up and then set off together? As for this Chapan Mountain, the mountain is not too steep. But if the Shu army occupies it first, after all, it is condescending, and the casualties of our army ......"
"It doesn't matter! I, Deng Ai, never thought that this battle of Shu could be blindly tricked to the end. This is a tough battle, and you must not escape it when it is time to fight! Herald! The whole army began to prepare, and after the rear army and I converged, we immediately waved our army south to Mianzhu! ”
"Whoa! We will obey the general's orders! ”
