Chapter 61: Don't Have Time to Fight Hanshou??
Although it was a bit self-inflicted to think so, Zhuge Song still felt that the reason why Shana brought troops to help was entirely because of himself. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But after arriving at the mansion, the hot girl still had a cold face, and Zhuge Song sat in front of her, and she didn't know what to say. However, Gong Zhi ordered people to serve tea and cakes, and he was very happy to serve Shana.
Then Gong Zhi cheekily used his clichΓ© Dafa again, although Shana ignored him at first, but there is a saying called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, and slowly told the truth.
Sure enough, Shana and Shamoke came this time because they heard that the Wu soldiers had invaded and brought their clansmen to help, although the barbarians were greatly injured because of the previous civil strife, but this time they still brought more than 20,000 people, so the Wu army no longer has an advantage in terms of troops, in this case, it is no wonder that Lu Meng retreated so happily. But although she came, Shana didn't say anything about Zhuge Song, her reason was that Zhuge Song and Zhao Yun helped them quell the chaos last time, and they have always been grateful and revenged, so this time she brought someone to help.
Although Zhuge Song can see through this kind of face-saving behavior at a glance, he is inevitably not very happy when someone says so. After that, Shana categorically rejected Gong Zhi's desire to arrange a place for her to stay, and she had to go out of the city to live with her clansmen, she also said that she would only wait until she repelled the Wu army this time, as long as the Wu army retreated, the favor would be reported, and then she and Zhuge Song would not owe each other, and there would be nothing to do with it.
Zhuge Song knew that Shana must have known that he came to Qing'er this time, and he didn't force Qing'er to stay considering Qing'er's feelings. After Shana left the city, Zhuge Song continued to send scouts to the east of the city, waiting for when the Wu army would withdraw from Wuling.
But what he didn't expect was that although the Wu army really retreated to the east early the next morning, it was not long before Zhuge Song saw the messenger sent by Hanshou to ask for help. This letter was sent by Xie Xian, saying that when the Wu army passed through Hanshou, the whole army suddenly surrounded the county seat, and it seemed that he wanted to break the city and loot some grain, and he had decided to live and die with the people of the city, and how long could he hold it, and the letter did not mention a word of asking for help.
Xie Xian, this guy thought that he had made Shamoke suffer in Hanshou at the beginning, and his tactics of defending the city made Shamoke, who had no siege weapons, extremely helpless. But this time, the Wu army is a regular army armed to the teeth, with ladders and siege vehicles, and it is impossible to defend Hanshou with the only few hundred soldiers in Xie Xian City, even if he has the ability to reach the sky. It is likely that at this time, he had already been broken through the city gate by the Wu army and died under the chaotic blade.
Zhuge Song knew that he couldn't save Hanshou with his current military strength, and even if he did, he would have broken the city before Hanshou could have been saved. He felt a little sad for Xie Xian, and even regretted why he didn't transfer Xie Xian to Wuling earlier, so that Xie Xian would not die at the hands of Lu Meng.
But a miracle really happened, after dark, another wave of sentinels reported, the main force of the Wu army actually did not participate in the siege, but continued to withdraw in the direction of Dongting Port, leaving only Wu General Pan Zhang to attack the city, the army left seemed to be only 3,000 people, and when attacking Hanshou, it was actually not hard to fight Wuling, all day long just trying to attack, hundreds of people in waves and hundreds of people in waves, in Xie Xian's full defense of the city to dusk or not breached the city, and now it is stationed outside Hanshou City, I'm ready to fight again in the future!
Zhuge Song thought to himself: "Is this Lu Meng full?" Sun Quan obviously asked him to withdraw his army to help Lu Su, but although he withdrew his army, he left an army to fight Hanshou, and he couldn't defend it for a long time after the defeat, so he hated himself. How do you know that Pan Zhang, this guy refused to let his subordinates die, and gave Lu Meng a job that didn't make any effort, and after tossing for a day, he couldn't beat a county town with only a few hundred defenders! β
At this time, the next person reported that Shana was here again, and when she saw Zhuge Song in red clothes and red armor, she didn't even have time to drink saliva, so she asked Zhuge Song to order the army.
Zhuge Song was stunned by her very sudden request, and asked her in surprise: "What are you doing with the army?" β
The surprise on Shana's face was actually greater than that of Zhuge Song, as if she had heard the most unreasonable words in the world, and she said angrily: "Why are you actually asking me why? Don't you know that Hanshou City is besieged? Of course, they will come with me to save the people in the city! β
Zhuge Song felt that Shana seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, or she was hallucinating. Think that when she brought troops to fight herself, how many county towns did she break Wuling? Although she didn't kill the people, she didn't rob anything less. Now that Wu Jun is going to fight the county seat, she wants Zhuge Song to go with her to save her, really, really, Zhuge Song was shocked by her speechless.
However, being frightened and frightened, Shana's behavior of going to save Han Shou made Zhuge Song's mind suddenly appear in a cloud of confusion due to Lu Meng's unexpected actions. He asked Gong Zhi to take the map, spread it on the table in front of him, pointed to Hanshou and asked Gong Zhi, how long does it take to march from here to Yiyang? β
Gong Zhi looked at the map and thought for a while and replied: "At the normal pace of marching, it is estimated that it will take about ten days, because the nearest method is to take a boat from Dongting Port, so even if you march quickly on land, it will not save long."
Zhuge Song followed the map from Wuling City to the north, looked up, pointed to the public security port and asked Gong Zhi, what if you go north from Wuling City to fight the public security?
"This?" Gong Zhi was obviously taken aback by Zhuge Song's idea. After a careful look, he thought about it carefully, and replied directly: "If you go fast, there will be a fleet on the river to pick you up, and you can reach the public security in less than five days at most!" β
Zhuge Song couldn't help but gasp, because in the past, when he was fighting, he was always outnumbered, and Zhuge Song, who liked to win by surprise, almost immediately came up with a very feasible battle plan in his mind.
He put his index finger on Yiyang and said to everyone: "Now that General Guan and Lu Su are holding each other in Yiyang, and the Lord Gong has heard that the Wu army is coming, he has also gathered troops to prepare to go out of Shu to help, if Lu Meng embarks from Dongting Port to Yiyang for reinforcements, at most he will only use the comparison of military strength to regain his dominant position in the battle with General Guan, but this advantage will disappear again with the arrival of the main army's reinforcements." β
Zhuge Song then moved his index finger to Hanshou City and said: "From the overall point of view, Hanshou is just a small dispensable place for the Wu army, and it is also a lonely city far from Lukou that is difficult to support. As soon as the main force of the Wu army retreated, even if Pan Zhang's 3,000 men captured Hanshou, it would be impossible to hold it in the face of our future counterattack. β
"Then the Wu army just wants to break the city and loot, and run away after grabbing things?" Shana listened to Zhuge Song's analysis and interjected.
Zhuge Song thought to himself: "This trick is commonly used by your barbarians, no wonder you ask so smoothly!" But he didn't dare to say it to provoke her, but patiently explained to her: "The military strength inside and outside Wuling City is now 30,000 people, since the main force of the Wu army is far away, if I am Pan Zhang, I will definitely concentrate the 3,000 people under my command to launch an all-out attack on Hanshou, break the city early, grab it early, grab it early, flash it early, like this, you can fight without all your strength, you can't beat it for a day, and you camp to prepare to fight again tomorrow, it's not that he has a sick head, there must be a fraud!" β
Zhuge Song's index finger slowly drew a circle around Hanshou, and said to everyone: "If I were Lu Meng, I would definitely not be willing to retreat to Yiyang and Lusu like this, as soon as he left, Changsha would be okay, as long as the reinforcements sent by the lord from Shuzhong arrived, Lingling and Guiyang two counties would definitely return to our hands, and in the end, even if they did not fail, they could hold on to our army, this time they made such a big move and dispatched so many troops, and only took away Changsha One County must be dissatisfied with Lu Meng!"
