A round silver plate, slowly climbing out from the east side of the mountain beam, like a headlamp, illuminates the strange stone dense Xifeng Mountain, tree branches, green grass in the moonlight shadow on the path, flowers dotted, leisurely.
Resident birds chirp occasionally in the branches, small insects jump among the grass, and thousands of lives in the Xifeng Mountain are jubilant.
At the beginning of the night, people have fallen asleep, everything is peaceful, a quiet Xifeng Mountain, suddenly out of a figure, under the moonlight, the figure of the person is stretched extremely long, as if an evil sword slashed on the ground.
Then, countless shadows appeared next to that person, some people climbed Xifeng Mountain, some people were quickly descending the mountain, a light of tea, countless shadows, disappeared into the mountains.
According to the plan, Zhao Jun led 40,000 cavalry down the mountain to block Zhang Wenbo's attack on the Yan army's camp. The people who went up the mountain were Zhao Hongru, Feng Shihu, Li Hu, and Li Bao brothers. Zhao Hongru followed Li Bao to attack Gukun Pass, and Feng Shihu and Li Hu marched into Jingyang City.
In order to avoid startling the snake, one pass and one city divided by Xifeng Mountain must be threatened by the front at the same time, even if it cannot be conquered at the same time, it is necessary to let the two lines of the Jin army not care about each other.
Gukunguan and Jingyang City, at this moment, it seems that there are two lambs to be slaughtered, and there are two vicious wolves in front of them, rapidly approaching, wanting to devour these two fat lambs.
In Gukun Pass, at first, Sima Kuo led an army of 100,000 to block the Yan army here, while Zhang Wenbo's brother Zhang Wenyuan led 40,000 guards to guard Jingyang City.
At the beginning, when Sima Kuo and the Zhang brothers were planning, according to the actual situation of the Yan army from the west, if the other party wanted to continue to advance westward, they must first conquer Gukun Pass, so there were only 140,000 troops left, 100,000 garrisoned Gukun Pass, and 40,000 towns guarded Jingyang City.
In the past few days, Zhang Wenbo led 10,000 cavalry to closely monitor the Yan army day and night, and occasionally took advantage of the lax guard of the Yan army, and would march west to attack and harass small groups of Yan troops.
As the Yan army continued to retreat, the situation seemed to be moving in favor of the Jin army. After too many defeats, Sima Kuo has become very unbelievable, he does not dare to hope that Zhang Wenbo will expel the Yan army, let him escape from the shackles of the Wang family, so as to counterattack the Yan army, pay homage to the marquis, and walk on the pinnacle of life, only hope that time will pass quickly, and at the end of July, the Wang clan will come to rescue him, completely leave the Jin army, and get rid of this failed life.
He already had no hope of the Jin army's victory, but Zhang Wenbo gave him hope and told him that the Yan army's camp was lax in defense and had suffered heavy losses to the Yan army.
Even if he doesn't understand the art of war, Sima Kuo also knows that this is like a street fight, one side underestimates the enemy's carelessness, at this time, take the opportunity to step forward and stab the other party, even if he does not die, but he also frustrates his edge and puts himself in an invincible position.
Therefore, when Zhang Wenbo sent someone to suggest sending troops, he agreed without hesitation.
Ascending to the top of the city and watching the 50,000 army go out of the city, what should Sima Kuojue do for himself?
Fighting with the Yan army many times, Sima Kuo led the guards to suffer heavy losses, although he did not put his mind on leading the troops, and experienced a series of changes in his life, but he also knew that he was born in troubled times, if he wanted to survive well, the most powerful guarantee was not wealth, but power, and now the power he could grasp was only to control the corps under his command.
With military horses, if there are any more military exploits, he Sima Kuo will have arrogant capital, perhaps, without military exploits, as long as the Wang family does not break his identity, with the identity of the Sima family, he can also have arrogant capital.
Therefore, he is now infinitely beautiful, commanding more than 100,000 troops, if he does not have these soldiers and horses in his hands and becomes a bare-bones commander, no one will be afraid of him, and the identity of the extremely human minister in front of him, the wealth of the Wang family, will all be wiped out.
Sima Kuo stood at the head of the city, looking up at the starry sky, wondering what he was thinking.
At this time, he had expectations, confusion, and worries in his heart, and more than that, he was looking forward to Zhang Wenbo bringing good news.
The Wang family controls and knows his identity well, and now for the wealth given to him by the Wang family, and the chance of one in 10,000 hope to become a supreme minister, he has always suppressed the fear in his heart and continued to fight fiercely with the Yan army.
However, now that he is difficult to ride a tiger, he has to bite the bullet and continue to compete with the Yan army when the road ahead is unknown.
When all the traces of the cavalry disappear, Sima Kuojue should do something, at this time, he must boost morale, once Zhang Wenbo has the slightest hope of winning, he will not hesitate to lead the 40,000 cavalry in the pass, directly kill, and the battle will be decided.
came to lead the barracks, because of the repeated defeats in the past few months, the morale of the soldiers was very low, one by one like frosted eggplants, and like defeated roosters, and their spirits were a little sluggish and listless.
The weapons were thrown on the ground, not gambling, but secretly drinking, lying on the ground, one by one like a big man picking his feet, how could he have the slightest bit of the Son of Heaven's pro-army quality and combat effectiveness.
Sima Kuo led a small number of personal soldiers to come up, and the soldiers saw him, but they did not restrain at all, as if they did not see this person at all.
In the face of such a scene, Sima Kuo was both helpless and embarrassed, and now, there are already people in the army who secretly call him Sima Chang defeated, because the war is always lost, his prestige in the army is too low, and there is almost no sense of existence in the hearts of the soldiers.
However, today, Sima Kuo was ready to establish his prestige and enhance his sense of existence, and instead of paying attention to the soldiers who were doing their own thing, Sima Kuo came to a high platform, turned to the soldiers with a serious expression, and shouted: "Brothers! ”
This sound was like a thunderstorm, more than 40,000 soldiers who were in high spirits heard the sound, and the people around Sima Kuo stopped their movements one after another, and turned their heads to look at Sima Kuo.
Noticing that many soldiers were focused on themselves, Sima Kuo was a little excited, a little excited, and everyone was watching him!
Clearing his throat, Sima Kuo said righteously: "Brothers, General Ben knows that the Jin army has been defeated repeatedly in the past few months, and there is a layer of clouds on everyone's heads, and the brothers look down on General Ben in private, but don't the brothers know that the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the two countries is not the same, and the Yan army has experienced a hundred battles, brothers, you are the same as this general, you are all on the battlefield, how can you experience a mountain of bones."
However, is the Yan army really invincible, they have one life, we are also one life, who is afraid of whom! ”
Sima Kuo said impassionedly, but unfortunately the soldiers didn't buy it at all, on the contrary, he felt that he was farting, yes, the Yan army has a life, and the Jin army also has a life, but in front of the wolf-like Yan army, who dares to work hard in the Jin army, you Sima Kuo, as the commander of the three armies, will shrink in battle, and if you are defeated, you will flee in advance, let everyone go to the front line and work hard, and you will lose your red mouth and white teeth.
Seeing that his words were ineffective, Sima Kuo continued: "Everyone looks down on General Ben, I have nothing to say, but don't forget, once the Yan army passes through the Gukun Pass and breaks through Jingyang City, your parents, wives and children, and brothers will all have to face the brutal Yan army, and they will kill your parents." Sleep with your daughters-in-law, beat your children, occupy your houses and land. Now, the comfortable life they enjoy will be completely shattered, are you willing? ”
I have to say that Sima Kuo's words said that in the hearts of the soldiers, the soldiers who had disdainful of him before all looked at him intently, and some even said softly after he finished speaking.
Hearing this, Sima Kuo was overjoyed, and continued to be indignant: "Since you don't want your parents to be killed, your wives to be slept, your children to be beaten, and your houses and land to be robbed, you should cheer up and join me to resist the Yan army, defeat the Yan army, and recover the lost land." Sima Kuo's eyes showed an earnest look in his eyes, and he continued: "But many of you will die in World War II to protect your family, are you afraid?" ”
"Don't be afraid!" The morale of the 40,000 cavalry was mobilized, and one by one they seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, as if they would kill a basket of Yan troops on the battlefield, tearing their throats and emitting anger, the sound was so loud that it was deafening.
Sima Kuo smiled secretly and took advantage of the situation to ask: "Since you are not afraid of death, then, do you want to kill into the Yan Kingdom, sleep with the women of the Yan Kingdom, and rob the cattle and horses of the Yan Kingdom?" ”
"Yes!" The soldier shouted again that when desire overcomes fear, there will be nothing worth fearing.
Completely aroused the morale of the Jin army, Sima Kuo's expression was high, he took out his sword, held it high in the air, and shouted: "Since you don't want to lose your relatives, and you want to plunder the wealth of Yan and sleep with the women of Yan Kingdom, then take out your war horses, draw out your war knives, set up your longbows, and always cheer up. ”
"Yes......"
In the dead of night, the Jin army, which was full of momentum, was still waiting for the news of Zhang Wenbo's attack on the Yan army camp.
At the same time, west of Xifeng Mountain, Zhao Hongru and Li Bao led 50,000 iron cavalry infantry, armed with swords and crossbows on their backs, and were following the deep lock that probed into the ground of Gukun Pass, and quickly descended.
According to the pre-plan, after quickly assembling, a team of 1,000 people began to be formed, taking advantage of the night to sneak into all parts of Gukun Pass, once the war ignited, they would swarm out.
On the east side of Xifeng Mountain, Feng Shihu and Li Hu led the ironclad infantry to infiltrate Jingyang City, and things seemed to be surprisingly smooth, and there was no obstacle at all.
Zhang Wenbo, who was a hundred miles away, also launched an attack on the Xiangyan army camp at almost the same time.
The 60,000 guards who had been lurking on the four sides of the Yan army camp had already been lurking on the Yan army's camp, and with an order, the ground suddenly burst out, and groups of cavalry urged the war horses to rush towards the Yan army camp with lightning speed.
Because, according to the report of the spies, the defense of the Yan army camp was weak, and at this time, all the Yan troops fell asleep, except for the shaking torches in the barracks, there were not even patrols in the barracks.
Therefore, this is definitely a good time for the Jin army, which has been defeated repeatedly, to take revenge.
