Chapter 130: Waiting for a long time, ready to go

The 50,000 army gave up Luoyang and held the Tiger Prison Pass, which was a decision made by Sima Yi himself in private, and Cao Pi was not informed in advance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause he knows that if he exposes his thoughts in advance, he is estimated to be in a dilemma now. Fortunately, he made a quick decision and retreated to the tiger prison on the grounds that the enemy was sharp and avoided its edge.

There is a way to pass the Tiger Prison since ancient times, and every time the Tiger Prison is broken, the world changes hands. This was the case in the Qin period, the Western Han Dynasty, and now the Eastern Han Dynasty still can't escape this fate. But that's it, is the tiger prison easy to break? On the contrary, Tiger Prison Pass, also known as Bishui Pass, Chenggao Pass, Gukun Pass, one of the eight passes in Luoyang, Tiger Prison Pass as the eastern gateway of Luoyang and an important pass, because King Mu of Zhou imprisoned the tiger in this name. This pass is connected with Songyue in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and the mountains are staggered, which is a natural danger. There is a trend of "one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open", and it is a place for soldiers of all dynasties.

No, Liu Xuewu's army in Luoyang has already sent people to Tiger Prison Pass three or four times to inquire about the news. It's a pity that Sima Yi's defense here is not leaky, blocking all the news in the Tiger Prison Pass, and from the day Liu Xuewu's army arrived, the entire Tiger Prison Pass was only allowed to enter but not leave, and unfamiliar faces and accents from other places were directly guarded. Less than half of the waves of spies have returned, and no useful information has been provided. Moreover, the Tiger Prison Pass went directly to Luoyang City, but it was a flat river, which was suitable for cavalry combat. However, when the tiger prison is closed, it is a difficult slope, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In the face of this scene in front of him, it is not easy to take down this tiger prison according to the situation of scouts who probe the terrain. Not only is the pass dangerous, but the key is that the person guarding the pass is Sima Yi, who is as wise as a demon, which can be described as even more difficult.

On this day, the sky was clear and cloudless, and Liu Xuewu took 30,000 horses under his command to call for battle outside the Tiger Prison Pass. The special horn, the amplified war drum, and the horn mouth are facing the direction of the Tiger Prison Pass, which can be described as a drum beating. All of a sudden, Sima Yi, who was sleeping lazily at home, was so frightened that he hurriedly put on his armor and went up to the city tower to observe, the two sides are old rivals, and the tacit understanding between them is self-evident. Sima Yi stood in front of the city tower and shouted to Liu Xuewu: "Yanmen has been absent for a long time, I haven't seen you for a few years, Zhongda misses it very much, and I hope to come forward to see it." ”

On the side of Liu Xuewu's army, it was divided into a figure-eight shape from the middle, and one man and one horse galloped out, wearing golden armor, holding three pointed and two blades, tall and big. From a distance, it sparkles under the action of the sun, making it impossible to look directly. Sima Yi can't see the other party's face clearly, but looking at this posture, this outfit should be Liu Xuewu!

So, Sima Yi continued to speak: "Master Hou is really still the same, his momentum is extraordinary, and he is a model for my generation. ”

"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, Lao Tzu has no time to yell at you." The golden armor soldier shouted and scolded with full anger, and there was no quality at all.

However, Sima Yi, who was looking forward to the city tower, hinted at the hundred archers who had already been ambushed in front of the city tower as early as the appearance of the golden armor single-handedly, and any flattery was actually just delaying time and making these archers ready to aim. He just waved his left hand when he heard this foul word, and immediately exclaimed: "Not good." ”

Unfortunately, there was no way to stop it, and a hundred archers fired in unison and shot at the golden armor soldiers from different angles. The distance of this bow and arrow is calculated in advance, and no matter how the soldiers of the golden armor dodge, they will definitely die. Originally, such a careful deployment was aimed at this Liu Xuewu, as long as Liu Xuewu was eliminated, Sima Yi was confident that he would defeat the attacking enemy. Unexpectedly, it was not Liu Xuewu who fought this time, but Liu Xuewu, who was dressed very gorgeously. This strategy was also customized by our godman Zhuge Liang. Originally, Liu Xuewu didn't want to do this, but the opponent in this battle was Sima Yi, and if he didn't completely defeat him, he found someone to pretend to be Liu Xuewu and attack the west with a move. Just in case. Liu Xuewu thought about it and had no impact on himself, anyway, it was for his own safety, so he agreed. Isn't this the first dead soldier to protect himself from a disaster, and the poor golden armor soldier was pierced by a hundred arrows before he could be majestic for a while. The soldiers behind hurriedly stepped forward to rescue, but unfortunately the man fell off his horse and died of anger. Liu Xuewu ordered a thick burial, and the whole army wore filial piety. Overnight, Liu Xuewu's army was all hung up from top to bottom, and ordered to block the news.

Sima Yi was a little suspicious when he heard that foul language, he didn't know who Liu Xuewu was? The first person of the Han Dynasty, he was famous all over the world when he was young, and he was crowned a marquis in front of the palace at the age of sixteen, who can compete with him. It can be said that it is a sadness to be in the same generation as Liu Xuewu, in this figure who is unlikely to be surpassed by his contemporaries, his own literacy is unlikely to be scolded casually. This is the so-called literati festival, and they don't bother to do such stupid things. But when I saw Liu Xuewu's whole army hanging white and filial piety, there was no news anywhere. In addition, Liu Xuewu's camp faintly showed signs of wanting to retreat, which made Sima Yi extremely puzzled and full of puzzlement.

So I found my two sons to discuss countermeasures, and that's it, I don't know what you two think.

"I think that Liu Xuewu must be dead, otherwise Liu Xuewu's army will definitely not retreat easily, if it is not as I expected, now Liu Xuewu's army is now a time when the dragons are leaderless and civil strife is fighting. As long as we attack with a large army, we will win in one battle. Sima Shi said with an oath.

But Sima Yi looked at Sima Zhao, who had been silent. Seeing his father's gaze move to him, Sima Zhao had to step forward and say: "I mean the same as my eldest brother, but it may not be so simple at this time, so we can first send a thousand cavalry to attack the camp overnight, and the army will be ambushed halfway to respond." If there is fraud in Liu Xuewu's army, the loss will be minimized, if there is no fraud, hehe. The army covered up and killed, and the elimination of Liu Xuewu's army was not a snap of a finger. ”

"That's right, just do what Zhao'er thinks! However, the thousand-man cavalry must find a clever general. Sima Yi touched the goat beard on his chin and said slowly.

"Don't worry, father. Niu Mang, who is under the child, is the nephew of Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu in the past, who is alert and has some courage and courage of Xiliang people, so leave this matter to him! Sima Shi hurriedly spoke and said first.

The father and son carefully discussed the specific actions and formulated a series of countermeasures.

That night, Niu Mang, under the command of Sima Shi, took more than 1,000 horsemen and carried a large number of fire-burning things, and secretly touched the vicinity of Liu Xuewu's military camp by taking advantage of the night, and rushed into Liu Xuewu's military camp with Niu Mang's order, which immediately caused a lot of chaos. The shouts and screams continued, and the fire ignited in Liu Xuewu's military tent. Sima Yi, father and son, who were in ambush halfway, saw that Niu Mang had succeeded, and thought that Liu Xuewu was really dead, and there was no one in the army. hurriedly didn't care about anything else, leaving only Sima Zhao to guard the rear, and the father and son led the army to kill Liu Xuewu's military camp. But as soon as they entered the barracks, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Damn it, get out now." Sima Yi hurriedly turned the horse's head and fled outside. At this moment, the whole army was in chaos, but Liu Xuewu except for the 10,000 ambush soldiers under Liu in the military camp, he personally led 20,000 horses and set off to attack the Tiger Prison Pass before the first batch of Niu Mang arrived. But Sima Yi ran for a while and felt wrong, Liu Jun did not chase and kill as he imagined, but lost the previous thousand cavalry and scattered a little when he was panicked in the retreat. The 30,000 horses he brought out are now more than 20,000, and their losses are almost negligible. Just when he was puzzled, there was a shout of killing from the rear, and Sima Yi looked at it in the direction of the Tiger Prison Pass, and knew that something was wrong.
