Chapter Ninety-Three: The Transformation of the University (3)
"Son of Changshan Zhao Zilong! Zhao Guang, the goalkeeper of the big Han Ya, is here, and he who is not afraid of death will step forward! ”
It's a narrow rift. At the exit of this canyon, the whole ground was already red. On the crimson ground, there were layers of corpses. These corpses, looking at the clothes, there are many Shu Han soldiers in red armor, and more Cao Wei soldiers in black armor.
At the top of the exit of the canyon, a middle-aged general with silver armor all over his body that had been infected with blood armor stood alone at the mouth of the valley, looking at the corpses of no less than six or seven thousand enemy soldiers in the valley with pride, leaning on his spear in his right hand, and pausing with the Zhaozi banner in his hand with his left hand. He opened his mouth again and shouted: "Son of Changshan Zhao Zilong! Dahan tooth goalkeeper Zhao Guang is here, who dares to take a step forward! ”
Inside the valley, thousands of Cao Wei soldiers in black clothes and black armor looked at the lonely figure of Taniguchi with dull eyes, and their feelings were very complicated.
This was August 21, and it had been six full days since Jiang Wei made up his mind to leave a small number of troops to intercept Deng Ai's pursuers.
Zhao Guang, who was in charge of the broken end, led 3,000 Shu Han soldiers to block Deng Ai's 35,000 soldiers and horses for six days at the exit of a canyon.
On the first day, the chasing Lianhong didn't say anything, and reported to Deng Ai: Leader, someone is blocking the road. Complete.
The next day, Wang Ji, who was on rotation, was not so good-tempered: this master was Tianshui Taishou. As the chief official of Tianshui, his perception of Jiang Wei is: This guy is simply a shame of Tianshui. So after Wang Taishou arrived here, he pulled the troops up without saying a word - as a result, he returned in defeat.
Deng Ai was unhappy at this moment: Jiang Boyo, you can't do this. Although Lao Tzu wants to let you go back to Hanzhong to make trouble for Zhonghui's stinky boy (it seems that there is nothing wrong with a person in his sixties scolding a stinky boy in his thirties). But you're going to have to give me an account to my leader. So a few thousand people blocked me tens of thousands? It's just a day or two, and it's strange that the general doesn't mutter in private after a long time!
So on the third day, the main force of Deng Ai's army went up.
Hey? Not impressed? This must be an illusion. I'll come back when I get some sleep.
On the fourth day, it still didn't come down.
This TM must be in a bad state for me. I'll go back to the camp and have a party.
Day 5: Who is this Zhao Guang? It's so fierce! I haven't heard of any great feats he has made under Jiang Wei over the years!
Now, it's the sixth day. The army of the other party was finally left with only one person. But six days have passed! Six days! With Jiang Wei's ability, a hard attack can eat Zhuge Xu clean!
And look at these soldiers now, all of them are glazed over. As a good general who has commanded the army for many years, how could Deng Ai not know what his soldiers were thinking: Is this the country we are going to conquer this time? Such a small army, outnumbered and outnumbered, with 3,000 men killed, not a single one escaped. Is such a country really something we can conquer?
"Hehehehehe~~~ Son of Changshan Zhao Zilong! Dahanya goalkeeper Zhao Guang is here! Good head, who will take it! ”
"What a son of Nagasaka heroes!" With a sound of admiration, a sturdy figure urged the mount under him to leap out of the formation. After approaching Zhao Guang's side, the young knight bowed his hand: "The son of General Wei Zhengxi, the partial general Deng Zhong has seen General Zhao. ”
"You're polite." Having used all his strength to stand up straight, Zhao Guang smiled at Deng Zhong: "The little general has been hostile to my Han for many years, and he has many military exploits. He is a heroic man. Dying in the hands of the little general today is not an insult to me, Zhao Guang. ”
Seeing that Zhao Guang couldn't even lift the spear, Deng Zhong let out a long sigh and stuck the spear in his hand into the ground fiercely. Then he turned over and dismounted, and drew the long sword at his waist: "General Zhao, offended." ”
With this offended, Deng Zhong quickly plunged the long sword in his hand into Zhao Guang's chest.
"Hiss~~~" In a look full of relief and relief, Zhao Guang swallowed his last breath.
"Father, I didn't disgrace you for my performance today, did I?"
"Brother, Guowei, I'll go first. I'll leave the heavy lifting to you. Wait until the day when the Han Dynasty is restored and returned to the old capital. But be sure to tell me at my grave~~~"
On August 21 of the first year of Yanxing of the Shu Han Dynasty, in order to cover Jiang Wei's main force and Deng Ai's pursuers, he distanced himself. Zhao Guang, the goalkeeper of Shu Hanya, led less than one-tenth of the enemy's troops to intercept Deng Ai's main force for six days, killing more than 6,000 enemies in total. Heroic death!
……
At the same time, Jiang Wei's troops were only more than sixty miles away from the bridgehead.
"Report ~~~ General. The scouts in front have already confronted the enemy scouts. It has been proved that the enemy army of 30,000 people, with the bridgehead as the core, is all entrenched in the south of the Bailong River. ”
"Huh~~~ This Zhuge Xu, sure enough, did not go south to Baishui Pass. In this way, the situation of my big man is not too bad! ”
Looking back at his subordinates, and seeing Zhao Tong, who was obviously not in a high mood, Jiang Wei also sighed ashamedly: "Bozhi, Wei Zhen is ......"
"The general doesn't need to say anything more. This is a choice made by Brother Guang himself. No one forced him to do it. He just did his duty as a courtier of the Han Dynasty. ”
"Hey, Jiang Wei is ashamed of the Zhao family. If it weren't for the coveting of that season's grain and grass......"
"The general has no need to blame himself. Although the rear army has not yet received the news of Deng Ai's approach, no matter how capable Brother Guang is, it is impossible to block Deng Ai for a long time. Therefore, the top priority is how to break through Zhuge Xu stationed on the return road of our army as soon as possible. ”
"Huh? Break? This may not be. ”
……
On the other side, the bridgehead.
Since the beginning of August, the troops have advanced at high speed all the way and successfully occupied the bridgehead. Zhuge Xu has been waiting here for more than half a month.
"Report ~~~ Enlighten the history of assassination. Our scouts have spotted the enemy! ”
"Oh! What is the flag? Is it Jiang Wei? How many people are there? ”
"There is no doubt that the enemy's leading general is Jiang Wei, looking at its scale, there are about more than 30,000 people."
"Huh? So much? What is Deng Shizai doing?! This Jiang Wei came to the official unscathed! Didn't Deng Shizai fight with him? Have you ever found out if there are any of our allies behind Jiang Wei's army? ”
"Ugh. This, the subordinate scouts ventured past Jiang Weijun and traveled thirty miles west, but did not find any friendly troops! ”
"This, this, this...... What is this Deng Shizai doing to eat! Did he take the general's orders as a child's play? ”
It can be said that Zhuge Xu is very self-aware. He knew very well in his heart: first, the bridgehead was too small, and the 30,000 people on his side could not fit into it under any circumstances. So if you want to fight Jiang Wei, you can only fight in the field. Second, in the case of equal forces, he is definitely not Jiang Wei's opponent in a field battle.
But fortunately, he Zhuge Xu has not done nothing for most of the month. At least, he set up camp, fortified fortifications, and built all kinds of fortifications, which he did honestly.
"Herald! The whole army held the camp. Without the order of the officer, not a single soldier is allowed to go out of the camp to fight! ”
"Whoa!"
"Report ~~~~"
"What's the matter?"
"The latest report from the scouts ahead. After seeing the camp of our army, the enemy general Jiang Wei led the enemy army north. ”
"Going north?" Zhuge Xu thought for a moment and then jumped up violently: "It's not good, Jiang Wei is going to cut off the back road of our army!" ”
After he shouted these words, the surrounding staff and the representatives sent by the local family in Yizhou were all stunned: Big brother, are you crazy? All 30,000 of your Yongzhou army are here, and all the 200,000 stone grain has been transported here. Where else is there to protect? Jiang Wei will still take these 30,000 Shu troops to the Northern Expedition - all people are thinking about is how to return to Zitong and enter Hanzhong as soon as possible! As long as you stick here for a few days, and wait until Deng Ai arrives in the back, under the attack from both sides, Jiang Wei will be finished!
"No! Our army cannot afford to lose its way back. Herald! The whole army immediately set off for the north and returned! We must protect the back of our army! ”
"Thorn History! Envoy! ”
"Say no more! Leave for the north now. If there is anyone who dares to speak up, kill! ”
……
On August 25, Jiang Wei's army marched thirty miles north, after receiving the news that Zhuge Xu's army had set off for the north. Immediately the whole army moved south and quickly passed the bridgehead. After hearing the news, Zhuge Xu hurriedly led the army to turn back to the bridgehead again, and the time had come to August 26. A whole day has passed since Jiang Wei's army passed through the bridgehead!
"The general is really a miracle. How did you guess that Zhuge Xu would be so easily fooled? ”
"Hehehe, although Zhuge Xu is not a good general, such a simple plan can still be seen." Completely getting rid of the pursuers, the main force of the Shu Han Mobile Corps can finally advance smoothly towards Hanzhong, and Jiang Wei is also in a good mood at this moment: "Zhuge Xu is not unable to see through my plan to attack the west. But what if he saw through it? I don't know how far Deng Ai is from him, and our army is very neat, obviously not having experienced a big war. In such a situation, he did not dare to fight in the field with our army at all. So as soon as I went north, he immediately gave way very cooperatively - when the time came, he could have said that Deng Ai did not follow me closely and caused him to make a mistake in judgment. Although I'm not very good at this kind of bureaucracy, I still understand something. ”
"I see, Shogun Takami. Hey? There is an army in front, and the banner is Liao? ”
"Huhuhu~~~ Boyo, I finally see you. It's okay, it's okay, you haven't had an accident yet. ”
"Huh? Yuan Jian? Why are you here? ”
"Hey! It's a long story, Beryo. But the most important sentence is: Yang'an Pass, lost! ”
