Chapter 1477: Decide the battle to which the world belongs
"Don't be lazy now, think about what you can do. Otherwise, disaster will befall the country!! ”
As soon as Xu Huang's words came out, all the civil and military officers were gloomy, their brows were furrowed, and their hearts were as anxious as if they were burning. Deng Ai's expression was tight, and he attended a bow, which was the way.
"In Ai's opinion, it is better to withdraw first and retreat to the river. At this time, all counties and counties are transferring thunder cannons to the river, and at that time, our army has thunder cannons in hand, and they are defending the city, so why should they be all in the crowd of Wei Kou!? ”
Regarding the matter of the thunder cannon, Wen Han truthfully informed the important civil and military forces under his command. And Deng Ai and the others also know the stakes and will hide it. Pang Tong listened to it and sighed, but shook his head and said.
"In Wei Kou's army, there is no shortage of talented and resourceful people, if our army wants to withdraw, Wei Kou will definitely cover up and kill. There are many Wei Kou people, and if there is any case, our army may not have the strength to return to heaven. ”
As soon as Pang Tong's voice fell, the civil and military forces suddenly became even more worried. At this time, Zhao Yun's face sank, and the dragon's eyes burst into essence, and he suddenly came out, and his voice was like a bell, and he arched his hand.
"If this is the case, why don't we retreat and teach the army to retreat, but at the key points of the mountains behind the pass, we will lay an ambush with a heavy army, and wait for Wei Kou to kill, and the ambush army will be exhausted, and fight with it, and be superior!!"
When Pang Tong heard this, he groaned for a while, and soon shook his head again.
"At this moment, the morale of our army is low, the spirit of the army has been greatly reduced, and the morale of the army is unstable. If Wei Kou had discovered our army's plan and had already made preparations, and the two armies would have fought hard, our army would probably have lost more than won it. It's too risky, and it's better to look elsewhere. ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, his heart was panched, his face was so anxious that he was about to open his mouth to speak. Suddenly, Wen Han, who had not spoken all this time, and his expression was contemplative, and two brilliant rays of light suddenly shot out from his sword eyes, and he shouted in a condensed voice.
"The prime minister's words are too early, but I think Zilong's plan is very feasible!!"
When Pang Tongyi listened, his face changed drastically, and he was very flustered, and bowed his hand.
"Your Majesty, wait! Wei Kou gained the upper hand for several days, attacking with thunderbolts, and our army attacked repeatedly, but they all returned with a feather and a frustration. On the contrary, Wei Kou wanted to conquer our army in one fell swoop, and his morale was high and his spirit was flourishing. What's more, Cao Mengde, Jia Wenhe, Cao Zixiao, as well as Sima Zishang, Jiang Boyo, Hao Bodao and others are all extraordinary people, how can Longhou's plan be hidden!? Please think twice, Your Majesty! ”
Wen Han was not a stubborn person, but he actually had a plan in his heart, smiled brightly, and said to Pang.
"The prime minister is calm and don't be impatient. I've got a plan. ”
Pang Tongyi listened, his eyes widened. Wen Han then spoke sharply, and the teaching was like this. Pang Tong's face changed when he heard this, and he was surprised again and again, only then did he know the magic of this. Suddenly, Pang unified his face with a look of ecstasy, his heart was convinced, and he bowed happily.
"Your Majesty is a man of God, so it is better to be unified."
As Wen Han's plan came out, all the civil and military officers were in high spirits, and their faces were shocked. Wen Shun was even more swordsman-eyed, full of fighting spirit, and secretly swore in his heart.
"Sima Zi, this time I will capture you, with the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in vain and the blood of Lao Niu!!"
So the generals were allocated according to the plan, and that night Wen Shun and Deng Ai led the rear army of 100,000 soldiers and horses, together with baggage and weapons, and distributed and withdrew. The Wei army scouts were probed and hurriedly reported to Sima Zhao. When Sima Zhao heard the news, he didn't dare to make a choice, so he hurriedly rushed back to the camp to tell Cao Cao. However, it was said that Cao Cao heard Sima Zhao's report in the tent, and his spirit was shocked, as if he had returned to the light, his pale face was flushed with ruddy, and he urgently ordered left and right, summoned the army and Chinese martial arts, and immediately went to the tent to discuss. After a while, Cao Ren, Jia Xu and other civil and military officers arrived one after another and sat down according to the seat. Sima Zhao will ** move, one by one. When Cao Ren heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he slapped a few shots and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha!! The Tang thief was already timid and wanted to withdraw his troops and retreat, and now was a good time for our army to cover up and kill. Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to lead an army tomorrow, and he will definitely kill the thief without leaving a piece of armor!! ”
Jia Xu frowned, but he was calm and determined, and he didn't see joy, but he asked Sima Zhao first.
"Son, what are the precautions of the Tiger Prison now?"
Sima Zhao's face was shocked, and he replied.
"Back to the Prime Minister. The Tiger Prison was under the attack of the thunderbolt car for several days, and it was already riddled with holes and could not be used. Our army is attacking with all its might, and it doesn't take a moment to break through!! ”
When Jia Xu heard this, his snake-like eyes shot two rays of light, and he bowed his head.
"In this way, even if the thief army wants to ambush behind the pass, as long as our army is prepared, with the vigor of our army and the number of people, it will not be enough to trouble."
Jia Xu said and looked at Cao Cao. Cao Cao's eyes that could swallow the sky exuded a terrifying light, and he was full of spirit and laughter.
"Hahahaha!! With the current situation, no matter how extraordinary the writing and Pang Shiyuan are brilliant and resourceful, they are powerless to return to the sky. The world is still for me in the end!! ”
As soon as Cao Cao's voice fell, all the Wei soldiers were overjoyed, and they all attended to congratulate him, flattering him with good words and praise. However, at this time, Sima Zhao's face changed, and for some reason his body trembled, and he had an indescribable sense of foreboding, and said with concern.
"The things on the battlefield have always changed rapidly, and it is obvious that they should not be taken lightly. Can you let Zhao Bu make a hexagram first, and then Your Majesty will make a choice? ”
When Cao Cao heard this, his face sank. All the generals felt that Sima Zhao was very interested, and there was no good color. Cao Ren was the same, waving his hand.
"The situation is decided, there is no need to do more!"
At this time, Jia Xu secretly glanced at Cao Cao. Cao Cao knew that Sima Zhao's 60 hexagrams this week were extremely accurate, and he also intended to give it a try, so he smiled.
"In the past, King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen was able to overthrow the tyranny of King Zhou, and this week Yi 60 hexagrams, made great contributions. I thought I might as well give it a try. ”
Cao Ren and the others listened to this, although they didn't like it, but they didn't dare to refute it. Under Cao Cao's instructions, Sima Zhao sat down at the table, took out sixty hexagrams, and divined a few hexagrams in front of him. How do you know that Sima Zhao has been divining three times in a row, and the hexagram is included in the owner. Sima Zhao's face became more and more solemn, and all the civil and military officials frowned. Cao Cao also saw it, his face was dark, and he didn't like it very much. Sima Zhao was in full view of everyone, and the more nervous he became, the more he felt a little stronger. Suddenly, there was a cracking sound, and the golden turtle shell in Sima Zhao's hand actually cracked a thin slit. When Cao Cao saw it, his face changed drastically, and he shouted angrily.
"Sima Zishang, you dare to disturb the hearts of the army, what crime should you be guilty of!??"
When Sima Zhao heard this, he immediately looked frightened, hurriedly came out, and bowed his head.
"Your Majesty forgives the sin, the guilty minister is a shallow learner, and the class has an axe. Or maybe this battle is about the world, and it is not human to predict. Please forgive Your Majesty!! ”
Cao Cao was furious, and as soon as he drank it, he wanted to drag Sima Zhao out and behead him to stabilize the army's heart. After all, this battle is very important, and Cao Cao is so ruthless, which is also understandable. Seeing that Cao Cao was so angry, the generals did not hesitate to behead their righteous sons, but they did not dare to speak. At this time, Jiang Wei and Hao Zhao came out in a hurry, knelt on the ground and begged, interceding for Sima Zhao. Despite this, Cao Cao's anger did not decrease. Cao Ren sighed and also attended to intercede for Sima Zhao.
"Your Majesty is angry. Although Sima Zishang is a capital crime, it is difficult to forgive him, but in view of his previous repeated meritorious achievements, it is also the time to employ people in the army. Why not spare him for his capital crime and give him a chance to make amends? ”
When Cao Cao heard this, his face sank, and his anger gradually faded. When the generals saw this, they dared to intercede for Sima Zhao. As a result, Cao Cao temporarily exempted Sima Zhao from his crime and demoted him to the rank of lieutenant in the army, in order to set an example. Sima Zhao wept bitterly and thanked him. Cao Cao then fought hard and discussed with the generals about sending troops. The generals received the order, and they retreated one after another, each making allocations.
The next day, the sun was just rising. The Wei army scouts came to report that most of the people, about hundreds of thousands of people, had withdrawn after the Tiger Pass, and there were only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding the pass. Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the news, and quickly taught Hao Zhao to lead the front troops and horses to quickly attack the pass, and then ordered Cao Ren to personally lead the generals, all troops and horses, nearly 500,000 troops, and then respond. Cao Cao led more than 100,000 people in the rear army, and lived in the rear, just in case. With the fall of Cao Cao's order, nearly 700,000 Wei soldiers were in turmoil. Hao Zhao led more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in the front to march quickly, and Sima Zhao first commanded the thunderbolt chariot as a cover. Under the repeated attacks of the thunderbolts, the Tang soldiers took refuge in all directions and became a mess. After a while, Hao Zhao led his troops to kill him. 100,000 Wei soldiers, a sea of people, the momentum is surging, like a flood rushing, shouting and killing shook the heavens and the earth. Xu Huang, who was in charge of the break, immediately made a decision and immediately taught the soldiers to withdraw. Hao Zhao saw Xu Huang retreating, sneered, and was overjoyed in his heart, and quickly taught the soldiers to seize the pass. I saw that there was still the majesty of the first dangerous pass in the world in the past, with broken mouths, holes, broken trees and stones, and desolation. The Wei army attacked on a large scale, and the Tang troops in the pass had withdrawn, and there were no soldiers to defend it. Within a moment, 100,000 Wei troops broke through the Tiger Prison Pass.
Cao Ren led an army of nearly 500,000 to come, and when he saw that the Tiger Prison Pass had been broken, all the soldiers under his command were overjoyed, raising their arms and shouting, and the momentum was overwhelming. Cao Ren was like a spring breeze, galloping wildly, and urgently ordered the armies to advance in a big way.
On the other hand, it was said that Hao Zhao, the vanguard general of the Wei army, seized the pass, thinking that there were five or six hundred thousand troops in the rear to respond, and he was one of them, so he immediately led his troops to kill Xu Huang's army. Xu Huang hurriedly led the troops to retreat, Hao Zhao chased to a high place in the mountains, looked around, the Tang soldiers in front of them were in a hurry, panicked and chaotic, and not far away, I saw most of the people and horses hurriedly withdrawing. Hao Zhao's eyes were shining, but he was not in a hurry, he looked around and saw a nearby reed, with people and birds flying in fright. Hao Zhao's face sank, and he looked closely, but he didn't see saltpeter and sulfur and other fire-causing things around him. Suddenly, Hao Zhao realized in his heart that it rained heavily more than ten days ago, and then it was cloudy for days, and the sun was not visible.
Hao Zhao thought about it, he was sure in his heart, taught his generals to prepare for battle, and then led his troops to advance.
After a while, Hao Zhao rushed to the road near the reeds, and suddenly there was a loud shout, and a member of the Tang general led the troops out, it was Deng Aiye.
"Hao Bodao, I've been waiting here for a long time!!"
Deng Ai glared at the tiger, raised his gun, and shouted loudly, and Pegasus came to fight Hao Zhao. Hao Zhao had already prepared, and he twisted the double whip to meet the attack. Behind Hao Zhao, the generals flew out one after another and rushed to help in the battle. Between the lightning and flint, Deng Ai and Hao Zhao took the lead in handing over horses, each dancing with weapons and fighting to the death, and the yellow bird and the immovable king of Ming appeared in a hurry. At the same time, the officers and men of the Wei and Tang armies responded to the battle one after another, and the soldiers of each team on both sides killed each other, stirring up a melee.
The Wei army had already prepared, and there were many people, and they were vigorous. Deng Ai's army was killed and retreated. At this moment, there was a shout of killing behind the reeds, but it was Xu Huang who led the troops back to fight. Hao Zhao shook his spirits and led the troops to attack, which was like a bamboo. Xu Huang led his troops to hurry up and stabilize the situation for the time being.
On the other hand, it was said that Cao Ren had just rushed through the Tiger Prison Pass with his troops. Suddenly, a light cavalry came to report, saying that the pioneer general Hao Zhao was fighting with ** on a reed road in the east. When Jiang Wei, who was beside Cao Ren, heard this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he said hurriedly.
"The Tang thief is ambushing by the reeds, if the fire attacks, there are dense forests and mountains everywhere, and the consequences will be unimaginable as soon as they burn!!"
Cao Ren listened, but he laughed and said to Jiang Wei.
"Boyo don't have to worry about it. The first day of heavy rain, and then it was cloudy for days, within a hundred miles below, the climate was humid, even if the Tang thief wanted to attack with fire, I am afraid that he would not be able to do this!! This must be the extraordinary trick of the pseudo-emperor, who wants to deceive our army and withdraw it!! ”
When Jiang Wei heard this, his heart jumped, and he soon came to his senses and hurriedly confessed his guilt. Cao Ren smiled brightly, in good spirits, and said to the generals behind him.
"The world belongs, and it is in this battle! We are waiting for the court to be loyal to the king. You are all under orders, and you must fight hard in the future to help Your Majesty achieve the great cause of the country!! ”
Cao Ren cheered together, and all the Wei generals shouted loudly, and their momentum was high. So Cao Ren led his troops into a big march, and more than 500,000 Wei soldiers were slaughtered all over the mountains, and there were shouts and waves of killing one after another in all directions, like grass and trees. Let's say that Cao Cao led the troops behind, and when he saw that the front and middle armies were rushing through the pass, his spirit was greatly shaken, and he hurriedly urged the troops to move.
Let's say that after Deng Ai and Xu Huang led their troops to fight to the death, they were fighting fiercely with Hao Zhaojun. At the moment of abruptness, the sound of shouting and killing exploded like an overwhelming explosion. **The crowd did not change color, and they were horrified. After a while, Jiang Wei led his troops to arrive first, and he flew to fight. Deng Ai's face was anxious, and he hurriedly turned his horse to meet Jiang Wei. Xu Huang killed Hao Zhao. And as there were more and more Wei soldiers, the soldiers of the Wei army were brave and brave, and they fought on horseback. The two armies of Xu Huang and Deng Ai couldn't resist it, and they were killed and scattered. Deng Ai and Xu Huang fled after reining in their horses. Seeing this, Cao Ren was overjoyed, thinking that the victory or defeat had been decided, and shouted loudly to teach the armies to cover up and kill, catch up with most of the people in the west, and capture the puppet emperor Wenhan. As a result, nearly 600,000 Wei troops marched forward one after another and attacked rapidly.
In an instant, Hao Zhao and Jiang Wei led their troops out of a dense forest, and saw that most of the people and horses were not far from the plain ahead. And most of the people and horses saw that the 600,000 Wei troops were slaughtered, and they were immediately frightened and chaotic.
