Chapter 21: Sneak Attack on Yang'an Pass (5)

However, he said that Zhan Qinggang had already led the men and horses to surround him at this time, and when he saw that hundreds of Han troops were actually blocking the door in front and back, he was immediately furious, and ordered the Wei soldiers to chase and kill him, and he must not let go of a Han army. The main general gave the order, and although the Wei soldiers were frightened in their hearts, they did not dare to disobey the military order, and reluctantly shouted and chased out of the gate under the leadership of several partial generals.

Although the blood guards acted quickly, after all, hundreds of people acted together, and the goal was huge, and the Wei army effortlessly tracked the blood guard's retreat after leaving the gate.

At this moment, there was a sudden sharp sound of breaking the sky in the darkness, and dozens of eagle feather arrows shot the Wei army rushing to the front into a hedgehog in the blink of an eye, including a partial general who led the troops.

"It's not good, the enemy has an ambush ......" changed and came to life, where did the Wei army, who was lucky enough not to die, dare to rush out, and retreated in amazement while covering it with a shield, but fortunately, the space for closing the door was narrow, and the Wei army blocked the locust-like feathered arrows after erecting the shield.

These feather arrows were naturally shot by Fu Yan's personal guards. Although he and his subordinates couldn't rush out to fight the Wei army face to face, they attached their humiliation and anger to the long arrow, and the feather arrows shot out were both ruthless and accurate, and the Wei army was suppressed and retreated into the gate with only one shot.

As soon as the Wei army retreated, Fu Yi signaled his subordinates to stop shooting arrows, so as to confuse the Wei army, so that they could not find the real situation and could not find the direction to return fire.

Zhan Qinggang was furious, urging the archers to shoot back. Yang'an Pass is the Wei army's food, grass and ordnance hoarding place, he was ordered to guard this place, and now the Han army has burned half of the sky, and he doesn't know how to go to Zhonghui to return to his life, and now the pursuing troops are blocked again, but he doesn't even know how many people there are on the other side, where they are hiding, how can he not be angry?

Seeing that the guards had lost their fighting spirit under the repeated attacks of the Han army, and the feather arrows fired by the archers could not pose the slightest threat, the Wei general named Du Yu hurriedly stopped the reckless action of Zhan Qinggang: "General, there is no need to chase anymore, the Han army is obviously prepared, the enemy is bright and dark in the dark night, the general must not be reckless, everything will be done after dawn, otherwise Yang'an Pass will be lost, not only the general will not be spared, but my 100,000 army will also rest!" ”

Zhan Qinggang was originally stunned by the attack of the Han army, but after Du Yu said this, he immediately calmed down. Du Yu is reasonable, it is certainly a crime to lose the grain, grass and ordnance on Yang'an Pass, but if he loses Yang'an Pass, the throat barrier connecting Shu and Hanzhong, with Zhong Hui's strict governance of the army, even if he has ten heads, it will not be enough to cut off, and it will even affect his family in Luoyang. In any case, the most important thing at the moment is to extinguish the fire first, rescue the grain, grass and ordnance, as for how much can be saved, the dead horse can only be used as a live horse doctor.

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately ordered the pursuit to be stopped, and the army retreated to the pass to be strictly garrisoned, except for a small part of the men who were left to clean up the battlefield, the rest rushed back to the warehouse and barracks to help put out the fire. Seeing that the Wei army closed the city gate, Fu Yi knew that the Wei army had lost its sharpness, and he was worried about being ambushed again in the night, so he did not dare to send troops to chase after him, so he immediately ordered the return army to chase Guan Yi and others.

At this point, a vicious battle disappeared invisibly.

Du Pre's face was full of fireworks, and he looked at the reckless mountains in the dark night with his sword in hand. Seeing that there were hundreds of corpses lying down on the battlefield, but none of them belonged to the Han army, he couldn't help but sigh: "There are only hundreds of people, and they have such strong combat effectiveness, from this point of view, the Han family is not dead!" ”

At the same time, in a hut at the top of Qingcheng Mountain, Li Yi had finished meditating, and slowly walked out of the outdoors with his hands behind his back, but he saw that the moon and stars were scarce, the mountains were longing, and everything in heaven and earth fell into a wonton.

Li Yi watched for a long time, and suddenly on a whim, he returned to the hut and took out dozens of straw baskets, and casually made a hexagram on the case. When the hexagram landed, Li Yi couldn't help but show a strange look on his face, and after being silent for a long time, he said with a wry smile: "The greedy wolf entered the world, and the peach blossom lord descended, but even the old man couldn't live in peace!" ”

The scenery of the night passed by in a flash.

After dawn, the boy who served in front of Li Yi's seat came to greet him, and Li Yi called him to his front and said, "Apprentice, you can quickly go to the ghost and worry, and bring a word for the teacher to the old beggar in the valley!" ”

When the boy heard this, he said curiously: "Aren't the teacher and the old man in the ghost sorrow the opposite, how can you have something to say to him?" ”

"You don't know that!" Li Yi shook his head and said, "Besides, only that old beggar can do this." On the way, don't delay, you can't get down to business! ”

"Disciple understands!" Seeing Li Yi's cautious expression, the boy hurriedly put away his playfulness, nodded, and said, "I don't know what the teacher asked the disciple to bring?" ”

"Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on."

When the boy heard this, he recited it silently in his heart, but the meaning of the conversation was not clear. After thinking about it, he said, "Teacher, the disciple doesn't understand, but what does this sentence mean?" ”

"This is the ear of heaven, you don't need to ask!" Li Yi smiled slightly and said, "You can bring this sentence to that old beggar, the old man thinks that he must understand the meaning of this sentence!" ”

"Commanded in vain!" Seeing that Li Yi refused to explain, the boy was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask again, and after bowing to Li Yi, he turned around and walked out of the hut, and went straight to the direction of the ghost without mentioning it.

However, it was said that Fu Yijiu Zhenyang Anguan was familiar with the local geographical path. Chased down the road, and within a moment, they converged with Guan Yi's brigade.

Guan Yi asked Ehu to count the manpower, except for Fu Yan and dozens of his subordinates because they had never had direct contact with the Wei army, so there were no casualties, more than ten of the five hundred blood guards were injured in the melee, and there was also a seriously wounded man who was pierced through the shoulder blade, which shows that the Wei army guarding Yang'an Pass is really elite.

When Guan Yi heard the report, he was silent in his heart. In this battle, the blood guard killed at least hundreds of Wei soldiers, and it was undoubtedly a complete victory in terms of casualty ratio, but seeing that the blood guard, who he regarded as a treasure, was injured, he didn't feel good in his heart.

But Guan Yi also understood in his heart that the battlefield battle, the sword and gun have no eyes, death and injury are inevitable, Guan Yi was an open-minded person, after a moment of sadness, he immediately cleaned up his mood, and ordered Ehu to arrange manpower to treat and take care of the injured blood guard, and ordered the team to go on a double journey, after all, this is still the edge of Yang'an Pass, and only the farther away from Yang'an Pass is the safer it is.

In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Guan Yi also asked Ehu to pick out a few blood guards who were good at disguise to be responsible for the aftermath and carefully clean up the footprints left by the team when they retreated. Half an hour later, the team returned to the Yinping Mountain camp, basically out of the danger zone.

Guan Yi led Zhuge Shang and Fu Tong and others to stand on the mountainside, and saw the fire in Yang'an Pass from afar, and faintly heard the people in the pass shouting and neighing, it seems that this fire is burning vigorously enough, although the Wei army has 5,000 soldiers and horses, it will definitely not be able to extinguish.

Zhuge Shang said with a smile: "This fire is burned, and all the grain and grass of the Wei army will be burned, it is estimated that after Zhong Hui learns the news, he is afraid that he will wipe his neck and kill himself, right?" ”

"In this way, the retreat of the Wei army has become inevitable, and then we can sit back and watch the general achieve great achievements!" Guan Yi was full of pride in his heart, but there was no wave in his expression, if the Wei army learned that the grain and grass were destroyed, it would inevitably be in turmoil, and the only way to resolve the crisis was to retreat to Hanzhong immediately, so as not to become a rout.

It is foreseeable that the day when Zhong will withdraw from the army is the time when Jiang Wei wields his army in Hanzhong. In addition to the grain and grass of Yang'an Pass, the logistics supply of the Wei army is far away in Guanzhong, thousands of miles of long-distance transfer, and the distant water cannot quench the thirst of the near, so it is naturally impossible to hold on to the lands of Hanzhong and recover the entire territory of Hanzhong, which is just around the corner.

Fu Yan nodded and said, "Do you want to send someone back to the Sword Pavilion to report to the general?" ”

Guan Yi smiled: "No need! When our scouts went back to report the news, they had to climb the mountains and mountains along the mountain road they came, and when they rushed back to the Sword Pavilion, Zhong Hui must have already learned the news that the grain and grass in Yang'an Guan had been burned. This man is a man of resourcefulness, and I expect him to retire overnight. If the Wei army rises up, the general will naturally know that our sneak attack has succeeded! ”

Everyone felt that what Guan Yi said was good, Chen Lie thought of the Wei general named Du Pre, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, why did the general have to kill the Wei general named Du Pre just now?" ”

Guan Yi was stunned, in fact, he didn't know Du Yu at all, but in the vague memory of his previous life, he vaguely remembered that this person was extremely talented, covering astronomy and geography, hundreds of schools, especially good at strategic planning and leading troops to fight, and therefore won the title of "Du Wuku". The meaning is that this person's talent and learning are like an arsenal, and there is an inexhaustible supply of what he wants. In addition, Guan Yi really doesn't know much about Du Prepending.

In fact, Guan Yi's concerns are not unreasonable. In the winter of 263 AD, after Cao Wei destroyed the Han Dynasty, Sima Zhao's son Sima Yan usurped Wei in February 266 AD and became the emperor and established the Western Jin Dynasty.

In addition to military strategy, Du Pre also had in-depth research on economics, politics, laws, calendars and even civil engineering, so he was called "Du Wuku" by the people of the time. With Guan Yi's worries, Du will not die, and he will inevitably become a fierce rival of the Han and bring endless trouble to the Han.

Of course, Guan Yi didn't know much about Du Yu at this time, so he didn't know how to answer Chen Lie for a while. was groaning, Fu Yan said: "Du pre-this person, I know a little bit about this person, this person is now the head of the Zhonghui Zhenxi General's Mansion, the counselor of the Han military machine, and is trusted by Zhonghui. But other than that, I haven't heard anything special about him! ”

Fu Yi's words were obviously disapproving of Du Pre, but he just relieved Guan Yi of the siege, and took the opportunity to smile: "Otherwise, although Du Pre is only the long history of Zhonghui Zhenxi General's Mansion, as far as I know, this person's wisdom is not under Deng Ai and Zhong Hui, I heard that many of Zhong Hui's plans to attack Shu are from Du Pre, and in time this person will definitely become a fierce opponent of us!" Therefore, when I was in the Guannai, I had the intention to kill this person in one fell swoop, and remove this big trouble for my Han, but it was a pity that I fell short, and I was very sorry! ”

Everyone saw him so much love Du Pre, although they felt strange, but more of them were disapproving, Guan Yi looked at his face, and naturally understood what they were thinking, now that the Han army had just attacked Yang'an Pass, everyone was in a state of excitement, and I was afraid that everyone would not believe it if they said it, and they would not break it at all.
