Chapter 143: Enemies on the Belly and Back, Unfavorable to All Sides (1)
Fast forward to November......
On a winter morning, outside the city of Xicheng, there was a heavy fog covering the sky, and an army under the banner of the Wei army suddenly came out of the fog.
On the wall of the West City, a soldier: "Look! What is that? ”
His robe stood on tiptoe and looked carefully: "I'm afraid that Xincheng is guarding Meng Da's army, didn't Meng Da say that he was ordered by the imperial court to attack Shu a few days ago, and he wanted to use our Wei Xing to let General Shen Yi provide supplies by the way?" ”
"Then what are you doing in a daze...... Hurry up and report to the general! The soldier patted his robe, and the two hurried down the wall.
On the field, Xicheng stands quietly in the dense fog like a pure land on the mainland, which is particularly peaceful and beautiful. In the mist, sergeants continued to walk out, and an army with an indistinct number marched from the fog to the city.
Meng Da took Hu Ji, Deng Xian and Li Fu to the city, and couldn't help but be furious. I saw that the drawbridge was raised, the city gate was closed, and the gatehouse was relatively deserted, with only a few scattered sergeants, and there was no sign of leaving the city to work at all.
At this time, the sergeant on the city wall poked his head out and shouted: "What are you doing?!" ”
"This will be General Jianwu and Xincheng Taishou Mengda, who is leading the army to crusade against the Shu thieves, let Shen Yi come out and reply!" Meng Datie's face was blue.
"Wait!" The sergeant coldly left two words, and his head retracted.
Under the city of Xicheng, Meng Da and his army were hung out for half an hour.
Hu Ji couldn't help but step forward: "General Meng Da, has the situation changed, and Shen Yi heard something?" ”
Meng Da shook his head confidently: "I only discuss the matter of returning to Han with my henchmen, and it is very confidential, and it is impossible for Shen Yi to know." He's been at odds with Ben for a long time, and it's his style to treat Ben with cold shoulders, and if he greets him as soon as he comes up, I'm going to doubt it......"
Sure enough, as Meng Da expected, after a short while, Shen Yi slowly climbed the city tower surrounded by a large number of generals, and Shen Yi lightly arched his hand towards the city: "Mencius, it's been a long time." ”
"Don't play tricks with General Ben!" Meng Da didn't appreciate his affection at all, and bowed his hand in the direction of Luoyang: "I am ordered by the imperial court to crusade against the Shu thieves and serve the country." The army lacks supplies, Shen Yi, why do you close the city gate tightly and don't go out of the city to reward the army. In winter, if you chill the hearts of the soldiers and slack off the morale of the army, you can't afford to wait! ”
"If you Meng Da is sincerely fighting for the country against the thieves who are not subordinate, then I, Shen Yi, will naturally put aside my personal grudges, prepare beef and wine, and go out of the city for thirty miles to greet you." Speaking of this, Shen Yi's words turned cold: "It's a pity, you are just a despicable and shameless person with ill intentions and the wind and rudder!" ”
Meng Da's face was not good, and he threatened: "Shen Yi, what do you mean, don't spray people with blood!" ”
On the city tower, Shen Yi didn't say anything, but shouted to the city: "What are you hesitating about? Take this opportunity to quickly take down the head of the traitor Meng Da...... General Li Fu! ”
"Ordered, kill the traitor Meng Da!"
Echoing Shen Yi's words, a sharp voice also sounded in Meng Dajun's army
In the amazement, Meng Da had not yet recovered his senses, and suddenly there was a thunderous explosion behind him, and when he turned around sharply, he saw a flash of coldness, and the next moment the endless darkness annihilated his consciousness.
Li Fu drew his sword and killed Meng Da, raised his bloody sword, and said loudly: "It's the opposite!" It's the other way around! Brothers, follow me to kill the traitor Deng Xian and the Shu thief Hu Ji, reward a thousand gold, and make a marquis! ”
Deng Xian gritted his teeth: "Li Fu, you dare to fornicate with Shen Yi against the water!" ”
"Huh? Ha ha! Li Fu seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and his muscles on his face twitched with laughter: "Your uncle Meng Da can turn his back on the Lord again and again, why can't I kill this thief at both ends of the rat for the imperial court?" ”
"Hugh and him talk more, work together to kill this thief, and take revenge on General Mengda!" Hu Ji drew his sword and rode on his horse eager to try.
"Good! took revenge on his uncle, and then broke Shen Yi's city. Deng Xian agreed, and he grabbed the Malay battle against Li Fu.
"Archer, prepare!" On the west city, seeing Deng Xian and Li Fu merging under the city, Shen Yi was expressionless and gave an order.
Someone under his subordinates kindly reminded: "General, Li Fu is also under the city, will he be injured by mistake?" ”
Shen Yi didn't fake his color, and said coldly: "Meng Da and Li Fu are both raccoon dogs, they are not trustworthy at all, and it is not a pity to die." Don't worry about Li Fu, just release the arrow! ”
"Put!"
After receiving the order, the archers of the Shen Yi army rushed to the mouth of the saucer and fired their bows and arrows at the city.
"Woo Woo ......"
For a while, a rain of arrows fell from the sky, and the Meng Dajun who was caught off guard under the city immediately fell in large pieces.
Hu Ji swung his sword to split an arrow from a diagonal thorn, and when he was looking for Deng Xian urgently, Deng Xian, who was mixed with Li Fu, was shrouded in a rain of arrows, and was desperately swinging his sword to block the arrows flying around, and there were already a few arrow feathers on his breastplate.
"It's hopeless, the Meng Dajun is in tatters." Hu Ji shook his head, turned his head and shouted loudly to his entourage and guards: "Don't do anything, let's go quickly!" Remove! ”
"Drive!" Hu Ji turned his horse's head, and the group whipped and galloped away in the direction of Hanzhong in the northwest.
……………………………………
The eastern suburbs of Tongguan, the camp of the Wei army.
The battalion stretched for several miles, and the flags covered the sky, and the momentum was incomparably huge.
Cao Rong has an army of nearly 200,000 people, and he has Sima Yi, Cao Zhen, Zhang He, Xiahou Ba, Zhu Ling, Du Xi, Xue Yi and other good generals, but he can't find the shadow of the radiant spirit when he just set out on the expedition in the past, and is replaced by a deep loss and decadence.
Tongguan, the tragic battle has been kicked off for a month, and unlike the Wei army, which only lasted less than one night, Tongguan is still firmly in the hands of Zhuge Liang until now.
During the month, the Wei army tried countless siege methods.
Using siege vehicles to attack, the gate of Tongguan Dongguan had already been blocked by the Shu army with boulders from the inside; The tunnel dug in the middle of the night was heard by the Shu army, and 2,000 dead soldiers were buried alive; The division attempted to enter Guanzhong from Wuguan, but was ambushed by the Shu army on the deep stream trail and returned defeated; Using ant attachment, it was drenched by the golden soup of the Shu army......
The Chinese army camp, the royal account of the Son of Heaven
After receiving the news of the failure of the later general Cao Hong to cross the river, Cao Rong hurriedly convened his ministers to discuss.
Outside the camp of the Wei army, in the sound of hurried horses' hooves, a fast horse carrying Hongling was galloping from afar, and the fast horse galloped to the camp, and the Hongling hurried envoy on the horse shouted in the urgent item in Gao Qing's hand: "One hundred thousand urgent, urgent report at the border pass!" ”
"100,000 urgent, urgent report at the border gate!" Soon, the urgent mail was delivered to Cao Rong by the forbidden army like a relay.
The urgent letter was written by Cao Yu, the king of Yan, the supervisor of Luoyang, and it reported only one thing, a riot on the northern border of Wei.
In the winter and October of the second year of Wei Taihe, Xianbei attached to Wang Kebi to induce the Baosai Xianbei lord Budugen to attach, so that he betrayed Wei Ting and assassinated Shi Bi Rail, and formed an alliance with himself. Subsequently, Kebineng gathered the Xianbei tribes of Daijun, Shanggu, Taiyuan, and Yanmen counties, and gathered more than 30,000 people to ride into Kouhe Prefecture, killing and plundering officials and robbing women's property.
He did not dare to slack off, and sent generals Su Shang and Dong Bi to recruit troops. Kebi can send more than 1,000 horses to meet Budugen, is encountering the Wei army, the two sides fought in Lou Fu, Su and Dong were annihilated, and the two generals were both killed.
For a time, the military situation was like fire, the border was full of smoke, and the people of the counties and counties along the way fled south one after another.
