Chapter 276: The Battle of Guanzhong (1)

"Ahem...... General Jiao's body...... How is today? ”

"Back to General Jiang's words, General Jiao woke up for a while this morning, but the high fever flared up quickly, so ......"

"Hey, what is King Langya thinking? Do we have to be willing to take action after the 30,000 defenders of Hefei are wiped out? How can they be so ruthless? ”

(Sima Ling: I have been transferred back to the imperial court, why do you still say that I am ruthless?) )

"General, if you want the last general to say, we might as well learn from Zhang Te."

The so-called learning from Zhang Te, its original intention was to delay the army. But the meaning here is not a delaying tactic, but a real surrender.

"Well, it's all here, it's good. Then I'll be ugly first. Oh, by the way, Shi Zaigong, the next battle that the kid is going to launch is a bit arrogant, and he asked Shi Zaigong to be the boy's staff officer. ”

Deng Ai glanced at Guan Yi very quietly and indifferently, and didn't say anything.

"Okay, you ignore me, and I'll see if your jaw is still there when I'm done later." Taking a deep breath, Guan Yi pulled open the curtain behind the main seat.

This is a large topographic map with a strong traverser-style style.

"About five hundred and twenty years ago, the two countries of Qin and Zhao broke out in Changping, where the state is today, and a decisive battle broke out that decided the fate of the two countries, nay, the fate of the seven countries. Regarding this battle, Taishi Gong spoke very briefly, just saying that Zhao general Zhao Kuo was ambushed, and the 400,000 Zhao army was surrounded by 600,000 Qin troops, and finally ran out of ammunition and food to break through. 400,000 Zhao troops were killed ......"

"All of you here are marching and fighting, so I would like to ask, how can 600,000 people surround 400,000 people? How can 400,000 people not be able to rush out? ”

"Humph! There are fewer shafts to pretend to be. Needless to say, of course, it is necessary to borrow the momentum of the mountains and rivers to achieve such a goal. Otherwise, with manpower alone, Hugh said that 600,000 and 6 million would not be able to surround 400,000! ”

"Huh. Shizai's skills are itching. Or, tell the kid how Wu Anjun borrowed the momentum of the mountains and rivers back then? ”

Guan Yi is very sure that Deng Ai can't answer this: the entire restoration of the Battle of Changping is the result of scientific research in the historical and archaeological circles of the Celestial Empire in the late 20th century. Unless Deng Ai wears it through and back again, he will never know. (The author said later)

"Hehe, Shi Zaigong can't answer. Actually, it's pretty simple to say. ”

"You! Well, I'd like to see how you solve this hundred-year-old mystery. ”

"Well, time is pressing, so in order to avoid being called a water count, I'll keep it simple. Please take a look at this map. This is the topographic restoration map of the Battle of Changping in that year. The terrain here is actually quite simple: mountains are flanked on the east and west, and the slopes are steep and difficult to climb. In the middle of the mountains on both sides is a river valley. ”

"In the early days of this war, the Zhao army led by Lian Po was unfavorable at the beginning and did not hold the mountains on the west side, so Lian Po simply gave up the middle river valley area and directly led the Zhao army to retreat to the mountains on the east side. And the Qin army's Wang Ji is not stupid, of course he will not enter the middle river valley area. So the two sides occupied one side of the hill and garrisoned it across the valley. ”

Later, because the national strength of Zhao was inferior to that of Qin, Zhao could not hold out in the long war of attrition in the first place, and urgently needed a decisive battle to end this slow suicide. Therefore, King Zhao chose Zhao Kuo, who was willing to attack, to replace Lian Po. And the Qin State also quietly replaced Wu Anjun Bai Qi to command the Qin army. ”

After Zhao Kuo arrived, he led the Zhao army to rush into the river valley. Bai Qi commanded the Qin army to defeat and introduced the main force of the Zhao army into the center of the river valley, leaving it away from the originally entrenched position. Bai Qi then sent an army of 25,000 men to attack and occupy the original position of the Zhao army. Later, another 200,000 men were sent to block the narrow exits on the north and south sides of the valley. So! The high mountains on the east and west sides became the tens of millions of troops of the Qin State, helping the Qin State to besiege the 400,000 troops of the Zhao State! By this time, the battle of Changping had been decided. ”

After saying this, Guan Yi vigorously ripped off the map of the Changping area, and under this map, there was a topographic map of Yibei.

"I want to emulate Wu Anjun and use the power of the mountains and rivers of Yizhou to swallow all the main forces led by the enemy chief Zhong Hui!"

"Great!"

"Good! General Zuo will please show me what we can do to swallow it? ”

"Everyone, please look at this map, now, the main force of the Great General is about 40,000 people and the more than 100,000 people of Zhonghui are facing each other in the Sword Pavilion. Speaking of which, since the end of August, Zhonghui's 100,000 army has been sitting in the Sword Pavilion for two months. No matter how strong the national strength of the puppet Wei is, it is very difficult to cross the Qinling Mountains and Daba Mountain to supply the grain and grass for the 100,000 army...... The reason why he is still in the Sword Pavilion is nothing more than hoping that Shi Zaigong's sneak attack will succeed or alarm the general in the Sword Pavilion. If I wait for Shi Zaigong to be pressed to the place of the Sword Pavilion and call Zhong Hui to come and have a look......"

"Then the bell will definitely retreat!"

"Well, yes. So, where will they retreat? ”

"Yang'an Pass!"

"What if we preemptively occupied Yang'an Pass before Zhonghui knew the news of the defeat of Shizaigong's army?"

When Guan Yi said this, the generals of the Shu Han side were all happy, but before they were happy for too long, Guan Yi himself added: "If I am Zhonghui, if Yang'an Pass is occupied by the enemy, then I will lead the army westward, take Baishui Pass to Qiaotou, and then return to the Qishan camp." ”

"Now, the main force of the Great General is blocked in the Sword Pavilion and can't get out. Therefore, if our army wants to swallow these 100,000 people, it must make a detour from the east and west sides respectively, and occupy Yang'an Pass and Baishui Pass before Zhonghui retreats! ”

"At that time, this Qinling Mountains and Daba Mountain will be transformed into tens of millions of heroes of my Han Dynasty, and all the 100,000 troops of the puppet Wei will be trapped for us!"

That's right, Guan Yi's heart is so big! He had never thought of ending the war in the easiest way: the easiest way was to cut off Deng Ai and throw his head out of the Sword Pavilion. Then Zhong Hui naturally retreated, and he and Jiang Wei rushed out of the Sword Pavilion to fight a rout, and if they were lucky, they could get 10,000 heads. If you are unlucky, they will directly send him and Jiang Wei 20,000 or 30,000 heads (the troops of the palace). The remaining 70,000 or 80,000 people defended in Yang'an Pass...... In this way, the disaster of Shu Han's demise was temporarily avoided, but the three counties of the northern front were completely lost.

In the future, Lao Tzu will preside over the Northern Expedition! What should I do if all the bases of the Northern Expedition are lost? Therefore, we cannot fight a rout, but only a war of annihilation.

"Now issue the order!"

The Shu Han generals, who were all so excited that their faces were blood-red, from Liu Chen down, all stood up: "I'm waiting for General Zuo's order!" ”

"Tiger Ben Zhonglang Governor Zhao Tong!"

"The last general!"

"Ordered you to lead three thousand Sword Pavilion cavalry to return. You are to stop thirty miles south of the Sword Pavilion, and then spread a warning curtain to prevent any people inside the basin from reporting to the bell outside the Sword Pavilion. At the same time, you personally go to the Sword Pavilion to meet the general and inform the general of the general's strategy. Please think of a way to delay the bell for at least fifteen days! ”

"Yes!"

"General Annam Huo Yi!"

"The last general!"

"The Nanzhong Corps has always been good at crossing mountains and forests, and ordered you to lead 5,000 Nanzhong soldiers and 5,000 Yulin troops, plus 10,000 people, bring all the grain and grass, take the river oil, copy the bridgehead from Jinggu Road, and then take Baishui Pass in the south. After that, stick to it! ”

Without waiting for Huo Yi to receive the order, Guan Yi added: "Jinggu Road used to be difficult to walk, but now that Shi Zaigong has just repaired the road there, he should be able to march quickly." ”

"Hahahaha~~~ So thank you Deng Aipif very much." After making a mocking bow to Deng Ai, Huo Yi turned his head: "The old man takes the order!" Please rest assured General Zuo, even if the foot board is worn out, the old man will definitely rush to Baishui Pass within fifteen days! ”

"Well, the old general personally led the army, I am convinced of this. By the way, I'll send Changzhi with you, and he'll surprise you then. ”

"Good, time is pressing, the old man will set off as a whole army."

"Old general, slow down." Guan Yi turned his head and arched his hand at Liu Chen: "Your Highness, Ma Jie and Ma Zhongying, the grandson of Ma Mengqi, have made outstanding contributions to move reinforcements from the Sword Pavilion this time. Can I ask His Highness to confer an official position on an interim basis? ”

"As it should be. Well, Zhong Ying, this king will first show you as the general of the west of the right town, and wait for us to destroy the Zhonghui and return to Chengdu to make a real seal. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness. Zhong Ying, lead your newly formed troops and march west with General Huo. The battlefield of the Ma family is destined to be in Liangzhou! ”

"Command!"

After sending Huo Yi and Ma Jie away, Guan Yi arched his hand towards the five Taishou who could still move in the Ten Counties Taishou: "Ladies and gentlemen, you won't follow this march." Please join forces and take the prisoners of the Xindu War back to Chengdu for resettlement first. Then go to Niupi and go down the river to Padang. Along the way, there are our Fuxing Society in Jiangyang and Ba County to supplement your food supplies. The remaining county soldiers of Ba County and Pasi County also began to gather in Jiangzhou...... I guess that Soochow will want to do some stealing and touching dogs again. ”

"Humph! These Wu dogs! General Zuo rest assured that after this battle, there are still more than 3,000 soldiers from the ten counties and counties, and they can be restored to 5,000 when they arrive in Jiangzhou and are supplemented by the soldiers of Ba County and Basi County. I went to Padang and could assist Luo Taishou in resisting the invasion of Eastern Wu! ”

"Thank you for your help. Guan Yi is here to reassure everyone. Now that we have captured 20,000 puppet Wei people, if the battle in the Sword Pavilion goes well, we will only catch more. When the time comes, if your county soldiers are killed, one martyr will be exchanged for five people. In addition, no matter how much the imperial court's pension is, my Fuxing Society will give each person a settling-in allowance of 10,000 yuan! ”

Sent away the five satisfied Taishou. Guan Yi smiled at Guan Suo, Zhang Zun, Zhao Yi, Simple, Sun Gang and others: "Everyone is ready, next, let's go down to rectify the troops and count the grain and grass." Two hours later, if our revival army can still move, we will spread our feet and run towards Yang'an Pass! ”
