This time, in order to better resist Liu Xuewu's 30,000 iron cavalry, Cao Pi specially ordered to send half of the strength of the personal tiger and leopard cavalry and 18,000 men and horses to Sima Yi for temporary command. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info also sent Cao Lu, the general of the Cao family, as the commander of the tiger and leopard cavalry to cooperate with Sima Yi to fight, which clearly shows that he doesn't trust Sima Yi very much, and finds a person in the middle buffer as a surveillance. This is very in line with Cao Pi's character of liking to play balance, so he is still a little uneasy, and sent Wang Lang to die as a supervisor in the army. These words almost didn't make Sima Yi angry, you must know that among the many factions under Cao Pi, Wang Lang and Sima Yi are the most wrong opposites. Now the two of them have to resist Liu Xuewu's attack together, which can only be done by Cao Pi, a ruthless lord.

In the original history of the Three Kingdoms, there are four famous novels "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that are mentioned, Zhuge Liang scolded Situ Wang Lang to death. But all this was Sima Yi borrowing a knife to kill people, first knowing Wang Lang's temper and temperament, he specially set up a bureau to lure him to find death. But this is a personal speculation, and I can't take it seriously.

However, this can also show that Sima Yi and Wang Lang are fighting openly and secretly, and the situation is like fire and water.

Liu Xuewu's 30,000 cavalry entered the boundary of Gunzhou, and before he saw the city, he encountered Sima Yi's vanguard. The two sides faced each other on both sides of a small river less than half a meter deep, and Liu Xuewu's side did not dare to attack rashly to avoid local ambushes because he was not familiar with the place. And the vanguard of this was led by Sima Zhao, with a total of only 5,000 men and horses, and they didn't dare to fight hard at all. This scene is a little weird, and the two sides choose their own locations to set up camp and cook on fire. Half a day later, Sima Yi's army arrived one after another, which made Liu Xuewu secretly say that it was a pity. Due to his own over-cautiousness, he lost the opportunity to take advantage of the enemy. At this time, Liu Xuewu regretted letting Zhuge Liang guard the tiger prison, if he was allowed to come, it is estimated that he would not have to work so hard himself. But there is no regret in the world, of course, it is easy to recall Zhuge Liang now, but Liu Xuewu can still tell which is more important. At least the Tiger Prison Pass can't be lost now, and now that it's lost, their 30,000 cavalry will really become a lone army. The lonely army is deep, and the soldiers are taboo. Liu Xuewu understands it very well, and Zhuge Liang also understands it, so he made such a decision.

Sima Zhao saw that the follow-up troops on his side finally came slowly, and he couldn't help but feel that a big stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground. You must know that when he encountered Liu Xuewu's tens of thousands of cavalry at the beginning, there was a cold sweat behind him. If he hadn't improvised, put down a position and bluffed to confuse the other party, it is estimated that the cavalry on the opposite side would have to report to the underworld as soon as they charged.

Now looking at his father and brother, as well as Wang Lang, who was originally a little annoying, Cao Lu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Anyone who walks on the ghost gate will have a similar feeling, but now that the two sides are holding each other still, there is a chance that they will not have to sleep tonight. Don't wonder why there is no war in the middle of the day, and why both sides have to wait until the evening. First, I'm not a conspirator, and second, I'm not a warmaker, so I don't know if I ask it.

It was getting dark, and the sun didn't know where it was going. The barracks of both sides can see each other's movements in the firelight, and it can be said that this small river, which is less than half a meter deep and three meters wide, is used as a boundary, and the two sides can be described as transparent fire. They are afraid of each other, and they are unwilling to hold on to each other like this. In the middle of the night, Liu Xuewu's tent, which was originally brightly lit, suddenly extinguished all the fires in an instant. The sound of the cavalry running frightened Sima Yi and hurriedly shouted to command the archers to shoot arrows at the sound.

But after a long time of not seeing Liu Xuewu's cavalry attack, it took a while for Sima Yi to shout: "It's not good." “

Then let the bow and arrow stop, and send a team of scouts to investigate, but unfortunately the army is still in place, this is really no way, Liu Xuewu is all cavalry, if he fights in the field at night, with the advantage of this cavalry, Sima Yi and others can suffer a big loss, Sima Yi and others dare not move at all.

Until dawn, the camp tent of Liu Xuewu's army on the opposite side had already been emptied, and the small group of scouts did not come back to report, but disappeared without a trace. This made Sima Yi even more puzzled, what did Liu Xuewu want to do? Sima Yi was really puzzled.

However, Wang Lang, who had been watching from the sidelines, spoke unexpectedly: "Brother Zhongda, I don't think we should waste time here, this generation of old men is more familiar, and the side is not far from the drum mountain." As long as Liu Xuewu wants to reach Chenliu as quickly as possible, he must pass through this place, we don't know the other party's movements, why not retreat to this place and ambush Liu Xuewu with ease and labor. “

"I didn't expect that my brother lived far away in the East China Sea but was familiar with the hinterland of the Central Plains, which made Zhongda, a native of the country, feel deeply ashamed, no wonder the main guild let you accompany you." Sima Yi said in a strange tone.

"I'm ashamed to say that the old man traveled here when he was young, and lived here for several years, so he is familiar with it." Wang Lang didn't seem to care about Sima Yi's slightly disdainful tone, but said it with some feeling.

"Maharaja Gaode is Zhongda offended." After Sima Yi finished speaking, he also found that he had lost his words just now, and hurriedly apologized.

Of course, this is also the best choice for Sima Yi and others in the current situation, Sima Dajun rarely unified the external action, but it was beyond everyone's expectations, and there was no trace of Liu Xuewu and others along the way. But the more this is the case, the more serious the doubts in Sima Yi's heart become, and the whole army is so nervous at this time that all the grass and trees are soldiers. If Liu Xuewu is said to retreat, let alone Sima Yi, even a fool will not believe it. If Liu Xuewu detoured to Chenliu in other directions, it would be impossible for him to have no movement at all. Moreover, these days, Sima Yi has been sending out scout teams to investigate and search, but none of them have returned, which shows that Liu Xuewu's cavalry did not leave at all, but somehow turned light into darkness and followed Sima Yi's army to death. But why did tens of thousands of cavalry, such a large-scale operation, not make a sound at all?

You must know that in this era, cavalry is used as an important heavy weapon. When the horses are running, it is at least dusty and earth-shaking. Only Liu Xuewu, the tens of thousands of cavalry, has been lurking silently, which is really undetectable.

This is Liu Xuewu's first tactic, psychological warfare. The book of war is on the cloud, and the soldier who surrenders without a fight is the best policy! Presumably, the embattled army disturbed the morale of the army, but this shadowy fear made people even more frightened. This is a kind of torture from the depths of the heart, and it is also a kind of mental torture for the generals. There is an old saying in China: "The unknown is the most terrible." “

If you know, understand, and face it, then just overcome your fear of this thing. But you don't know when they're going to attack, or even if they're going to attack or what's going to be done, that's what you're afraid of.
