Chapter 346: The Crisis Behind the Stalemate

The atmosphere inside the tent was extremely depressing, and a group of generals and lieutenants stood there, eager to get out of the tent and take a breath before coming in.

"Damn! That Ma Chao is really hateful! Originally, I wanted to see in the face of the lord and spare him a small life when the city was broken, but who would have thought that he would kill our captain! ”

The king sat there furious, almost in a state of madness.

Yan Yan said: "There is also something wrong with the two of us in this matter!" We really didn't expect that Ma Chao's skills would be so good! I thought that even if Captain Liu couldn't resist his attack, there should be no problem at all with self-preservation, but now it seems that we were wrong, Ma Chao is far more terrible than we imagined! ”

Zhu Sheng, who was standing on the side, said: "The living are gone, and now is not the time for the two generals to blame themselves, what should we do now?" The lord's side is urging tightly, it is impossible for us to accompany it, Ma Teng has been consuming! ”

"Grandma's, the rest of the castles are all wooden gates! Who would have thought that this Wuwei gate would be an iron gate! Otherwise, with the power of the snatching crossbow, we would have won the martial arts a long time ago! ”

Hearing Wang Meng say this, Yan Yan stroked his white beard and said: "Ma Teng has been operating in Wuwei for many years, and it is not strange that the city gate is an iron gate!" For now, we don't have to dwell on that! You've got to find a way to lure them out! ”

"It's so hard to lure them out! We have to find a way to take the initiative to go in, and then the inside and the outside should be combined, so that the martial power will be broken! ”

"But how do you get in?"

The question Yan Yan asked was also what Wang Meng thought. At present, there seems to be no better way than to dig tunnels, but it will take some days to dig tunnels. Wang Meng felt that he couldn't wait that long.

"If you really can't help it, just attack him a few times a day! General Ben wants to see how many men they have in their city to kill us! ”

"Please think twice!" Zhu Sheng took the initiative to come out and said: "General, if we continue to attack like this, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses!" Now that the Lord is just employing people, if we can outwit it, it is better not to attack it! Generals, don't mess up because of Captain Liu's death! ”

After Yan Yan heard Zhu Sheng's words, he also said to Wang Meng: "We still let the army surround like this!" Hurry up and find a way to put it! At present, it is not difficult to take Wuwei, the difficulty lies in how to take it as soon as possible! The old man estimated that the grain and grass in Wuwei City were enough for them to last for a while! ”

Wang Meng nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Captain Zhu, where is Captain Zhao?" ”

Zhu Sheng and Zhao Tao said in unison: "Yes!" ”

"General Ben ordered the two of you to continue westward with 8,000 men and horses. Fight all the way to Zhangye County! General Ben wants to turn Wuwei into a lonely city! General Ben wants to see it. How arrogant will Ma Teng be when the time comes! ”

Zhu Sheng said: "This is certainly a good way, but if we take these 8,000 men and horses to the west, then the general's men and horses are probably not much more than Ma Teng's men and horses!" If he counterattacks at that time, I'm afraid it will ......."

Wang Meng laughed and said, "When did General Ben's soldiers count on winning the battle with troops? Just the remnants of the army in the city of Ma Teng. The rest of General Ben's men and horses are enough to deal with them! Hurry west! Don't procrastinate! The sooner you take the area east of Zhangye County. The better it is for us! ”

After Zhu Sheng heard him say this, he only had to take the order.

After Zhu Sheng and Zhao Tao came out of the handsome tent. Wang Meng said: "According to the old general, the two of them led these 8,000 men and horses, can they quickly take the area east of Zhangye County?" ”

Yan Yan laughed and said, "At present, Ma Teng's men and horses are mainly concentrated in Wuwei. There are not many people in the large area east of Zhangye County to Wuwei! It's also a good thing to win it in one go! It also saves us from continuing to advance westward after capturing Wuwei! ”

Wang Meng nodded and fell into deep thought.

Ma Bin has clearly stated in his letter that the eastern front is quite tense at present, and if the southern front is also fought, it undoubtedly means that the pressure on Hanzhong will be very great, once Lu Bu captures any place in Hanzhong where the soldiers must fight, it means that their hard work to lay the ground will be handed over to Lu Bu.

Yan Yan also knows that the current situation is not optimistic! This Wuwei is undoubtedly a difficult bone to gnaw, but when it comes to this, even if it is a difficult bone, they have tried all kinds of ways to gnaw it down.

In Wuwei City, when Ma Teng heard that there seemed to be nearly 10,000 horses under Wang Meng's command continuing to march west, this really made him happy, but after being happy, he quickly frowned.

After Ma Chao saw his father's expression, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

If the part of the men and horses that Wang Meng divided took a large area in the west of Wuwei, it would mean that Wuwei would completely become an empty city, and if Wuwei was breached, even if they wanted to flee for their lives, they would probably have no way to escape!

"Master Hou, the last general will ask for an order to lead the army out of the city to compete with Wang Meng!"

Pang De thought to himself that Wang Meng's men and horses suddenly decreased by nearly 10,000 people, and Ma Chao beheaded Liu Zhen again a while ago, if they went out at this time, it should be a good thing for them.

Ma Teng shook his head helplessly and said, "No! Cannot! Don't act rashly for the time being! ”

"But once a large area west of Wuwei is taken by Wang Meng, we will have no way out!"

Pang De's words went directly to Ma Teng's heart, but at present, the people and horses in Wuwei City are almost all of his family background, so he is really worried that the little people under his command will be completely lost!

"Wait! General Ben doesn't believe in this evil anymore! ”

Pound also knew what it meant for Ma Teng to say, but it was really not too wise for them to take the initiative at the moment.

The defense of the city may be able to continue to hold out for a while, but if you take the initiative to attack, once you don't win, Wuwei will also be very good at defending it.

"Could it be that the large area west of Wuwei has just been surrendered to Wang Meng's army?" Ma Dai said with a sad face.

Ma Teng smiled: "What if they take it? As soon as there is any mistake between Ma Bin and the Eastern and Southern Fronts, we can take them back as quickly as possible! No hurry! No hurry! Wait! Now we have to hold our breath! ”

Hearing Ma Teng say this, Pang De, Ma Chao, Ma Dai and others naturally didn't want to say anything.

Ma Ming Pavilion and Baishui Pass, everything seems to be calm, but Zhao Yun will take people and horses to patrol these two places where soldiers must fight almost every day.

Letters from the Two Realms Mountain and the Yonekura Mountains were also sent here continuously.

The stalemate of the war on the Eastern Front and the Western Front made Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Yin Feng and others guarding the Southern Front doubly careful.

The excessive calm in Yizhou and Padang made them feel a little uneasy.

This kind of calmness does not seem to be the style of Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu at all.

However, Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu did not take the initiative to send troops, and it was not easy for them to lead the army to fight directly, after all, Ma Bin had already given them a death order, once Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu sent troops, their task was to defend to the death, and no matter what the price was, they could not let them take half a step north!

The apparent calm does not mean that Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu secretly do not move.

Since Meng Da persuaded Yan Pu to let Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang, under Yan Pu's persuasion, Zhang Lu finally agreed to send troops with Liu Zhang.

Yang Bai took 8,000 men and horses under his command in Bazhong, and Liu Zhang also asked Ling Bao to secretly rush to Bazhong with 8,000 men and horses to round with Yang Bai.

The two armies were in one place, with 16,000 men and horses, and Yang Bai and Ling Bao were both commanders.

Yang Bai said: "According to the arrangement of Meng Junshi and Yan Junshi, we will secretly break through Micang Mountain, and then attack Nanzheng directly!" At present, the men and horses of Padang are gathering to the north, but I don't know how the other soldiers and horses in Yizhou are ready? ”

Although Ling Bao is a lot smaller than Yang Bai, but after the polishing of the battlefield, he has already become a general who can take charge of one side alone, hearing Yang Bai say this, Ling Bao smiled and said: "General Yang rest assured!" Once Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao want to go to the rescue, General Deng, General Huang, and General Liu, who are confronting them, will immediately dispatch their men, and at that time, the pressure on our side will definitely be reduced a lot! ”

"Good! Very good! That's the effect! ”

Ling Bao said: "Since our common enemy now is Ma Bin, we must work together to deal with Ma Bin!" It's just that I don't know what General Yang thinks about the attack on Yin Feng? ”

Yang Bai said: "Compared with Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, it is obvious that Yin Feng is the easiest of the three to deal with, and once we capture the Dazhai of Micang Mountain, we can directly threaten Dao Nan Zheng!" This is also the reason why the two military divisions let them only fight Mt. Rice Cang. However, since the establishment of Dazhai, Micang Mountain has also become easy to defend and difficult to attack, if we want to win by surprise, we have to deploy well! We only have one chance! There can be no mistakes! ”

Ling Bao smiled helplessly, Yang Bai said that all he said so far was nonsense, how could he not know what he said.

Seeing that Ling Bao was smiling reluctantly, Yang Bai said: "I don't know if General Ling has a clever plan?" ”

After Ling Bao smiled, he got up and walked in front of Yang Bai and said in detail so and so, Yang Bai said happily after hearing this: "Good plan! What a plan! ”

Ling Bao said: "This strategy also requires some risks, but the risk is not big!" As long as we cooperate well, we will be able to successfully win the rice cang mountain village! ”

"Yes! Be! Someone's coming! Good wine and good meat are served! ”

After the wine and food were served, Ling Bao and Yang Bai chatted while drinking.

The two chatted quite exquisitely, and the topic had always revolved around Ma Bin, and they both kept silent about the matter between Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu.

It's also easy to understand that now that the two are in an alliance, they have to avoid awkward topics. The alliance is only temporary, and the differences are expected to remain.

Ling Bao and Yang Bai were both explained by their respective lords, although they both attacked Yin Feng, but everyone wanted their soldiers to be less injured, and everyone wanted to maximize their interests with their limited troops...... (To be continued......)
