In the northwest of the Central Plains, the snow melts in February, the flowers bloom in March, and it snows in February.

A mountain peak on the plain.

Here is a huge military camp standing, in the barracks, on the ground of more than a dozen giant colonels, one by one Wu soldiers are howling and strengthening training, while the generals next to them are holding horse whips and shouting.

"If you don't want to lose your life on the battlefield, you have to work the training ground, here is sweating, but you can not shed blood on the battlefield, cheer me up and strengthen training."

"The 1st Assault Regiment, all of them raised their guns and stabbed 500 times, and their movements were neat!"

"Sons of the scout battalion, run for me, run fast and let you run back on the battlefield!"

"Sons and daughters of the bow battalion, every arrow of yours is a talisman for your comrades, aim at it!"

“……”

Every general went crazy, because all of them knew that a bloody battle was coming, so they used up their last shred of time to train their soldiers hard.

This is the general headquarters of the second theater of operations, which gathers the main forces of the two corps of war elephants and Bashu.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The drill of more than 100,000 soldiers and horses together, and the deafening shouting of killing, made the entire Qishan feel this tense atmosphere, and at the foot of the mountain, as long as you look at the military camp on the peak, you can see a very spectacular scene.

A large camp of the Chinese army on a hill.

At this moment, basically 80 percent of the generals at or above the division commander level under the command of the Western Theater have now gathered here, and today's meeting of military divisions will be the beginning of the war.

"Generals, we have been waiting for months, and we are finally about to enter the beginning of spring!"

Sitting in the first place is Zhuge Liang, the commander-in-chief of the Western Theater who can already command two legions justifiably, he is still wearing a Confucian robe, and his literary quality is polite, but he inadvertently has a touch of majesty.

This battle is crucial for both Dawu and Zhuge Liang.

Sun Quan suddenly raised him to the position of commander-in-chief of a war zone, whether it was the giants in the center of the imperial court, or the soldiers under the two legions, those who did not live up to it had a lot of presence, but they were just based on the holy order and did not dare to disobey.

If he has no achievements, he will inevitably be counterattacked, and his majesty will be swept away, and the position of the commander will not be stable.

So he's going to fight hard.

"The battle of Liangzhou is already urgent for us, and we can't let the Wei army take a step towards us, so I have decided that from tomorrow, the main force of our army will go north to Hanyang and join the 14th Army, which is the battle to recover Liangzhou!"

Zhuge Liang faced the generals and said categorically.

"So fast?"

"Will the commander-in-chief be in such a hurry!"

"It's only now when the ice and snow are melting, and we haven't completely entered the beginning of spring, and our soldiers will suffer a lot if we fight!"

"I think it's better to wait until after March, and it's better to start fighting in the camp in April!"

"If the road is not repaired, there must be obstacles in the march, so let's wait!"

When the generals heard this, they looked at Zhuge Liang with a pair of eyes, and some generals were not very in favor of starting a war at this time, so they spoke against it.

After all, they are located in the northwest, and they can not warm up as quickly as Jiangdong, and now although the ice and snow have begun to melt, the cold weather has not changed, and the casualties will increase if this battle starts.

"Commander-in-Chief Zhuge is not discussing this matter with you, but informing you with a military order, and you only need to respect the military order!" Chen Zhi stood up suddenly, his tiger eyes were awe-inspiring, swept over, and said coldly.

As a matter of fact, the upper echelons of the Western Theater have already completed communication on this battle, and today's meeting is to promulgate the battle plan.

"No!"

When the generals heard this, their hearts trembled, and they hurriedly bowed their heads and nodded one by one.

Zhuge Liang looked at it, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised a bitter smile, it seems that the majesty of his commander-in-chief is still insufficient, and the voice he said is not as good as that of the commander of the legion.

But this is also normal, the majesty of a master general is never an overnight thing, after all, he was ordered to be in danger, he was just a small overseer before, and he also lost the White Horse Pass, which led to the failure of the Battle of Wudu.

In this regard, he can take his time, as long as Chen Zhi and Xu Sheng do not contradict him, he can still fully control the strength of the mobilization of troops and horses in this battle.

"Now, this commander has begun to issue military orders, and the War Elephant Legion will take the lead in going north!"

Zhuge Liang was upright for a moment, looked at the generals, and began to speak, saying: "The Thirteenth Army, the Fifteenth Army, after three days, must pull out the camp, all the way to the west, enter the Qiang tribe, sweep through, all the way to the north, enter Hanyang, join the Fourteenth Army, and prepare to attack Anding!" ”

"Commander-in-chief, we should fight for Liangzhou, but when we faced the Wei army, we took the initiative to provoke the Qiang tribe, isn't it a little irrational?" A division commander stood up and asked calmly.

If the Qiang tribe sends troops, their pressure will increase a lot, and it is irrational to look at it.

"That's a good question!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "Senior Commander Luo, I also ask you a question, if we don't take the initiative to provoke their Qiang tribe, do you think they will stay in their tribe peacefully, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" ”

Sending troops to the Qiang tribe was a key point in his plan, and this step was very important, of course, he couldn't go into detail here.

"Probably not!"

When the generals heard this, they looked at each other and shook their heads, the division commander's face also turned a little red, and he said curtly: "They have obviously been paired with the Wei army, if the Wei army is defeated, they will definitely send troops!" ”

"In that case, let's go and beat them, or they will beat us, which one is more cost-effective!"

"Naturally, we're going to hit them!" The generals hurriedly became brazen, the Wu army has fought a big war for so many years, and has never suffered a loss, only beating others, and is rarely beaten back.

"That's it!"

Zhuge Liang waved his hand to sit down, and then looked at Shamoke, the commander of the Thirteenth Army: "Commander Shamoke, the Thirteenth Army will face the entire Qiang tribe, you are under a lot of pressure, but you must resist!" ”

"No!"

Shamoko shook the peculiar pigtail on his head, gave up his hand, and nodded firmly.

After arranging the Thirteenth Army, it was the Fifteenth Army.

Then it is to arrange the strength of Liangzhou and the direction of the attack.

This theater military meeting lasted until the evening, when the generals dispersed one by one, and after the dispersal, they also immediately moved and began to prepare for their troops and horses to march north.

"Commander-in-Chief, will the Military Aircraft Division agree to our plan?"

It was dark, and the oil lamps in the big tent were lit up, and only a few corps commanders and chiefs of staff were still sitting in it, Fa Zheng raised his head, looked at Zhuge Liang who was sitting firmly on Mount Tai, and asked with some worry.

Even he thought it was a bit too risky.

"I don't know!"

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he shook his head and smiled slightly bitterly: "Our previous defeat in the battle of Wudu may have made the Minister of Military Aircraft in the Military Aircraft Department a little disappointed in the two legions in our Western Theater, this plan is so risky, if we want to complete the plan, with the current strength in our hands, we must burst out with more than twelve percent of the combat effectiveness, it is difficult to say whether they will agree." ”

"What if they don't say yes?" Xu Sheng frowned and asked.

"Then we can only follow the original plan, step by step, abandon Chang'an, and seize Liangzhou!"

Zhuge Liang said indifferently.

"Commander-in-chief, if they agree to the Military Aircraft Department, how sure are you that you can lure out the soldiers and horses of Chang'an?" Huang Gai, chief of staff of the War Elephant Legion, asked with a slight movement of his eyes.

"Chief of Staff Huang, let me give you an analogy, if the Wei army hits the foot of Jinling City, do you choose to lead the army back to King Qin, or continue to attack Liangzhou!" Zhuge Liang asked rhetorically.

"Nonsense, this doesn't need to be said, naturally lead the troops back to King Qin!"

Huang Gai's temper is a little irritable, that is, he has only tightened a little in the past few years, and his voice is still very rushed.

"It's the same with the Qiang people!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes crossed a bright light, bright, and said in a deep voice: "When they suddenly know that their tribe is burned by us, they will return to their tribe at any cost, and no one can stop them. ”

"What about the Wei army in Liangzhou?"

Chen Zhi pondered for a moment: "Sima Yi and Zhang Ren join forces, we are already under a lot of pressure!" “

"Of course we fight together!" Zhuge Liang said confidently: "Our soldiers are divided into two ways, the war elephant corps focuses on Liangzhou, the Bashu army is waiting for work in Wudu, we can fight the battle of Liangzhou step by step, one by one, and now there is Hanyang in hand, and it is already the first to occupy the first hand This battle is not afraid of death, but if it captures Chang'an, Liangzhou will really hang outside!" ”

"Sima Yi is not easy to deal with, if they can't see all our main forces, they will definitely suspect us!" Fa Zheng was still a little worried.

"Then show them!"

The corners of Zhuge Liang's mouth raised a sneer: "No matter how shrewd Sima Yi is, he would never have thought that we would have the courage to aim at Chang'an at this time, as long as he focuses on Liangzhou, he will lose this battle!" ”

Calculating Sima Yi is the key to this battle.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Xiliang, Anding County.

Linjing City.

The main force of the soldiers and horses of the Sima Yi Department of the Wei Army was stationed here, echoing with Zhang Ren's troops stationed in Longyou County in the north and south of Liangzhou, and eyeing Hanyang County sandwiched in the middle.

Sima Yi, who is now working hard to prepare for the war, suddenly ushered in a rare guest from Chang'an.

After the two met, they quietly plotted in a heavily guarded military tent.

"Mr. Gonghe, Your Majesty is making a big deal, but this is a little too risky!" Sima Yi knelt on the blanket and quietly listened to the plan of the frustrated teaching, and his face couldn't help but be shocked: "If we fail, and we lose everything, we will be defeated!" ”

Give up and merge the state and seize Bashu.

This plan is crazy.

Even Sima Yi was a little overwhelmed.

"General Sima, Great Wei has reached a critical moment, and Your Majesty has no way out!"

There was a bitter smile on his frustrated face, if the situation collapsed too quickly today, after the first battle in Kwantung, the Wei Dynasty had already entered a sunset situation, and every quarter of an hour it was possible to be driven straight by the commander of the Wu army and destroy the country.

If Cao Cao doesn't fight, he will definitely lose.

"What Mr. Gong and Mr. said is very true!"

When Sima Yi heard this, his face suddenly became solemn, and he had to admire Cao Cao a little in his heart, how many majestic monarchs, after sitting on the throne, would be smoothed out by balanced politics.

But even if Cao Cao has reached this point, he is still the Cao Mengde who dares to fight.

"General Sima, Your Majesty has decided on this plan, you only need to be responsible for cooperating, the key to the success or failure of the plan lies in whether you can drag the Wu army into the battle situation in Liangzhou, drag them to the death, so that they have no time to care about others!"

Frustrated, he said: "So you must fight fiercely, at any cost!" ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Gonghe, if I say that I destroy the two legions of the Wu army, I am incapable, but as long as I drag them here, I have absolute confidence!" Sima Yi nodded,

"That's good!"

Fu Zhi stood up, brought up a certain hat, and then said: "I have told you the detailed plan, but you must keep your mind secret, the brocade clothes are pervasive, be cautious, I need to go north immediately to assist Ma Chao!" ”

"I'll be careful!"

Sima Yi nodded, stood at the gate of the camp, and after seeing Fu Zhi leave his barracks, his expression became heavy, and under the roll of his eyes, one thought after another moved.

This battle is no longer just the battle of Liangzhou, this will be the battle that will determine the fate of Cao Wei. (To be continued.) )
