Chapter 300: All or Nothing
Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this, because Zhuge Liang's analysis is undoubtedly the most appropriate, as long as he is willing to give up Wuwei, the next thing will be the fire between Liu Qi and Han Sui, and when the time comes, he will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, it is entirely possible to reoccupy Wuwei, and it is also possible to completely eliminate Han Sui, defeat Liu Qi, and remove his threat to the entire Liangzhou.
If he didn't listen to such a clever plan, it would be in vain for the wisdom of his generation of heroes.
Therefore, Liu Bei agreed almost without hesitation, and immediately ordered the army to retreat to the area of the Great Wall, and secretly left hundreds of spies in the city, asking them to pretend to be ordinary people, keep an eye on the movements here, and pass the news to the army in time.
Not long after Liu Bei's army withdrew from Wuwei, the news reached Han Sui, who was not far from Guzang City, where the garrison was located.
"Haha, Liu Bei is really vulnerable, and before our army entered Guzang City, they took the initiative to withdraw, which is really good. Lord Han, since Liu Bei has withdrawn from Guzang, is it time for us to enter the city? Yang Teng's eyes revealed a hint of fanaticism, and he said with a laugh.
Han Sui couldn't help frowning secretly when he heard this, in fact, the relationship between him and Yang Teng was average, and the reason why he was able to win Yang Teng to attack Wuwei this time was mainly because he was lured by heavy profits, because he promised Yang Teng that as long as this person could attack Wuwei with him, he could be allowed to plunder his troops, and now Yang Teng was so anxious to enter Guzang City, it was obvious that he couldn't wait to rob the people.
Although Han Sui is a warlord and usually levies heavy taxes on the people, he doesn't want to let the aliens rob the people under his rule at all, so although he agreed to Yang Teng on the surface, his heart is full of resistance.
Who is Han Sui? This is a typical old treacherous and cunning person, and he uses his tactics. Even Cao Cao would be jealous, and he was naturally comfortable dealing with an alien barbarian like Yang Teng. So he just blinked an eye and found an excuse.
"Don't you think this is a good thing, King Di? Liu Bei is cunning. The main reason why he gave up Guzang City was to see me and Liu Qi lose both. And then take the opportunity to reap the benefits of the fishermen, if we really enter the city, I am afraid that we will immediately fall into the siege of Liu Qi and Liu Bei, so we can't enter the city at present. ”
"And when are you going to be in the city? Lord Han, we will only help you if we have your promise, and now that the army has come to the city, it is not easy for the enemy to withdraw. Guzang has become an undefended city, this is an opportunity given to us by God, if you don't take it, wouldn't it be unwise? What can Liu Qi's army do when it comes? What if you join forces with Liu Bei? We have 70,000 or 80,000 troops to defend the city, are we still afraid of them? If you don't enter the city, then the king will go into the city alone. ”
After Yang Teng finished speaking, his anger was still unstoppable, Huo stood up, and prepared to lead the army to take the city.
Seeing this, Han Sui immediately sneered in his heart, and said secretly: "Since you are looking for death." That would have fulfilled you. ”
I saw that Han Sui hurriedly grabbed Yang Teng and said with a smile: "Since King Di insists on wanting to enter the city, then the general has nothing to say." However, we will not enter the city yet, because we are going to follow Lord Yao to lead the army to attack Liu Bei's camp, and we will not enter Guzang City before defeating Liu Bei, there are only 20,000 cavalry under the command of King Di, but we must be careful of Liu Qi's sneak attack. ”
"What? Are you going to sneak attack Liu Bei? Do you really want Wuwei? Yang Teng couldn't help but ask with a shocked expression.
"Hehe, King Di doesn't know anything, as long as he is calculated by Liu Bei and Liu Qi at the same time, don't say it's us. Even Cao Cao couldn't bear it, because of this. We were taken by surprise and unprepared. Defeat Liu Bei's army first, as long as Liu Bei is defeated, we will be able to defend Guzang City, and we will be able to hold on to Wuwei, not to mention that I Han Sui and Liu Bei's enmity is not shared, how can I watch him sit and reap the benefits? Han Sui smiled faintly and explained to Yang Teng.
"I thought you were a good plan, it turned out to be nothing more than that, I have heard that Zhuge Liang is a wise man, how can he be defenseless? You led the army to attack the camp, but it was just a strategy, but why should I care about you? It's better if you lose, so that the entire Wuwei will be my Yang Teng's. The more Yang Teng thought about it, the more proud he became, and said with a smile: "That's it, then I wish you success." ”
"Thank you, please set off first to take Gu Zang, and then we will raise troops to fight the times, please remember that now Wu Wei is not named, and Liu Qi is eyeing him, so after you enter the city, you must not kill innocents indiscriminately, so as not to arouse public anger and lead us to lose this trip."
After Yang Teng led the team to leave, Han Sui couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head when he saw this, he knew that this Yang Teng was blinded by greed, and he didn't listen to his own words at all, as long as he entered the city, he would definitely plunder the army, and this result could only be that Guzang City was obtained by Liu Qi. But he can't control so much now, in order to be able to take revenge on Liu Bei, he would rather not Gu Zangcheng.
At this time, the military advisor Cheng Gongying took advantage of no one and said softly in his ear: "Lord, according to the expectations of the last general, after Yang Teng enters the city, he will definitely set troops to plunder the people, which will arouse the anger of the people, so that Liu Qi can take advantage of the weakness to enter, we might as well enter the city with him, so that he can be restrained, so that the people will suffer less disasters, and at the same time, we can consolidate our rule in Wuwei." What's more, Zhuge Liang is a wise man, how can he not guard against our sneak attack? This attack on the camp was really unpredictable. ”
Han Sui looked at the loyal subordinate in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it turned out that after Cheng Gongying got the news that he had fled to the Qianghu tribe, he resolutely gave up his high position in the Qin State, fled from Chang'an overnight, and found himself all the way.
It is rare for a loyal subordinate like Cheng Gongying to be this one, coupled with the wisdom of this person, Han Sui naturally became a confidant, and he didn't want to hide anything after being moved, so he sent away the attendants, and said angrily: "Gongying, you guessed right, Zhuge Liang is cautious in his use of troops, and he will definitely be on guard, but because of this, he will have nothing to fear, and this time he clearly knows that he is prepared, but he still wants to lead the army to attack, the purpose is actually very simple, as long as it is to do a decisive battle with Liu Bei, relying on strong forces to directly crush it, Liu Bei hurt me so badly, I Han Sui will not take revenge and swear not to be a man. ”
Han Sui said that his mood was agitated, and in anger, he slammed the table case with his fist, and actually smashed a small hole in the table case.
"But what about Guzang City? With Yang Teng's brutality, it is impossible to defend Guzang City, not to mention that he has no experience in attacking and defending the city, once Liu Qi leads his troops to attack, I am afraid that he will not be able to support it for an hour at all. Cheng Gongying couldn't help but sigh softly and said with some concern.
"Hehe, it's not my race, its heart must be different, Ben Jiang didn't plan to let Yang Teng go back alive at all, since he is willing to go into the city to find death, then let him die, as for Guzang City, Ben Jiang actually has no intention of occupying it at all, in fact, the reason why Ben Jiang raised troops this time is mainly to break the enmity." Han Sui's face looked a little gloomy and terrifying in the dim tent, and even if Cheng Gongying saw it, he couldn't help but shudder.
"The lord didn't even think about restoring the great cause from the beginning, but he still led the army to take Wuwei, could it be for ......?"
"Exactly." Han Sui really wanted to know what Cheng Gongying was going to say to him. Hurriedly interrupted the other party's words, and said in a deep voice: "Gongying, you should know that in fact, Ben will be sandwiched between the two heroes, and there is no hope at all, since I am going to fail anyway, then why don't I fail vigorously once?" On the sixth day of the seventh month of the tenth year of Jian'an, Liangzhou Han Sui defeated Liu Bei, the Duke of Qin, hehe, even after a thousand years, I am afraid that there will be a heavy record in the history books. Gongying, if you still have a little old affection for Ben Jiang, don't mention this matter to anyone again, Ben Jiang has already decided to die, but it's a pity that you followed me, I didn't bring you any good, but brought you a great disaster. You go, I won't blame you for who you take refuge into. ”
"General." Cheng Gongying couldn't help but burst into tears, choked up and said: "The general treats the last general like a father and son, even if such a great general is broken, he can't repay it, how can he give up the general?" Since the general decided to die, why should the last general survive? Let's have a vigorous battle. It's just that the last general doesn't understand why you don't let the horse ........"
"Hehe, Gongying, you treat the old man as a good person too much, although I am willing to help him, but I will definitely let him spend his life in self-blame, which can be regarded as a revenge for him for destroying my foundation. Okay, let's not talk about these things again, let's think about how to defeat Liu Bei. ”
Han Sui's eyes were full of shrewdness, even a hint of cunning, and the domineering spirit exuded from his body, from this moment on, he seemed to have changed from a lonely loser back to the hero who had been crisscrossing Xiliang for more than ten years.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, night fell, and Han Sui led the 40,000 iron cavalry of Dangqiang and his 10,000 Xiliang Jing cavalry, and marched towards the garrison of Liu Bei's army.
When Han Sui was defeated and retreated to Burning Dangqiang, there were only more than 1,000 guards around him, but later there were old troops who went to defect one after another, and now they gathered together, there were 10,000 troops, and this time Han Sui took out all the 10,000 troops, which was originally a desperate intention.
Since this time it was originally to defeat Liu Bei's army from the front, Han Sui did not do any concealment at all, and walked on the road with a full 50,000 iron bikes, just the huge momentum caused could make people change color.
"Liu Bei, the time for revenge has come, Zhuge Liang, I have heard that you are the best at governing the army, but this time I want to see, how can the army of less than 30,000 under your command block my 50,000 iron army? I want you to quit Liangzhou, I want to completely crush your self-confidence, I want to make you lose your vitality, and in the end you can only helplessly go to perdition. ”
Han Sui's eyes were full of anger, and the blood all over his body was boiling, and he couldn't wait to rush to Liu Bei's army immediately to take revenge. (To be continued)
