Street Pavilion, formerly known as Street Spring Pavilion, the name comes from a spring, is a small town with a small population, built under the Dragon Mountain, the city walls on the front and back are only about two zhang high, even if you don't use a cloud ladder, you can climb up with a human ladder.

However, because of the geographical location, the street pavilion relies on Longshan, and there is a river in front of it, and the east and west directions are somewhat wanted, and the north and south are transparent, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Historically, the street pavilion is famous.

Ma Tan carelessly lost the street pavilion, and Zhuge Liang slashed Ma Tan with tears.

This is an allusion that everyone in later generations knows.

At the same time, this allusion also fully illustrates the importance of the street pavilion, the geographical location here is for the north and south is to connect the upper and lower, and the east and west connect this Liangzhou and Guanzhong, is the throat of the soldiers.

Now guarding the street pavilion is the Ninth Army of the Bashu Army of the Wu Army.

The Ninth Army is the elite of Bashu led by Chen Zhi, Chen Zhi personally serves as the commander of the Ninth Army, and the chief of staff of the Ninth Army is named Deng Zhi, who is a talent that Chen Zhi was originally transferred from Jinyiwei.

Chen Zhi is now personally leading the 10th Army of the Bashu Army to go deep alone, and the 9th Army is naturally the chief of staff Deng Zhi in charge.

Deng Zhi is a native of Nanyang, in the early years he was recruited by Liao Hao and joined the Jinyi Guard, and later Liao Hao was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Secret Guard, leaving Bashu, he is the helmsman of Bashu Qianhu.

He made a great contribution to the capture of Bashu by the Wu army, but he was not a pure brocade guard.

Deng Zhi was born in a well-known local wealthy family in Nanyang, and he read poetry and books in his childhood, especially good at reading military books, but he has always been depressed in Jingzhou, so he went to Bashu alone, and joined Jinyiwei by mistake.

After Wu Jun pacified Bashu, he broke away from the Jinyiwei system and recommended himself to enter the military system.

On this day, the weather was very good, the town of Jieting was harmonious, there were only queues of training soldiers, and the population in the city had already begun to migrate south one after another after the Wu army was stationed, and the population was not large, so it was not very difficult in this regard.

Deng Zhi and his generals were now discussing the battle situation in a camp set up in a threshing floor in the town, when suddenly the scout battalion commander Wang Ping rushed in.

"Report!"

"Come in."

Deng Zhi looked at the combat sand table and responded lightly.

"Report to the Chief of Staff, the second company of our army's scouts, ten miles away from the west flank of Jieting, found that a large number of Wei soldiers and horses are now gradually approaching Jieting!"

"Wei Jun?"

"It's coming so fast!"

"I've been waiting for so long, it's finally here!"

When the generals heard this, they did not have the slightest surprise, but their expressions showed a strong sense of war.

"How many soldiers and horses are there in the Wei army, and what is the banner?"

Deng Zhi's eyes also lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly looked at Wang Ping and asked.

"There are about 15,000 soldiers and horses, but the banner is unknown!" Wang Pingdao.

"Unknown flag?"

Deng Zhi clenched his fists, his eyes were like rainbows, and a sarcastic sneer rose at the corner of his mouth: "Sneaky, don't show the flag, just want us to be incomprehensible, it seems that the person we are waiting for is coming!" ”

"Report!" At this time, another voice outside the camp sounded.

"Come in!"

"Report to the chief of staff, the first company of the scout is ten miles away from the east wing of the Jieting, and found a large-scale Wei army of soldiers and horses, the soldiers and horses are at least no less than 15,000 Wei troops, the flag is unknown for the time being, and now it is gradually approaching the Jieting, at most in the evening, the soldiers can come to the city!"

"There is also a Wei army in the east?"

Deng Zhi's expression was solemn, a touch of coldness crossed his eyes, and he drank coldly: "It seems that the Wei army wants to encircle the east and west, forcing us to go north and south and withdraw from the street pavilion!" ”

"Chief of Staff, are we going to attack now, or are we going to defend it tightly?"

Li Miao, the commander of the 30th Division, stood up and asked cautiously.

Li Miao was the original general of the Shu army, who was once valued by Zhuge Liang, and later after the Pujia Pass was breached, he surrendered to the Wu army, and after the establishment of the Bashu Army, he was personally raised by Chen Zhi, who was regarded as a Confucian general, with strategy and less bravery.

"100,000 Northern Wolf Guards, we can't beat them, of course we are defending them!"

Deng Zhi said: "There are elite cavalry Xiliang Iron Cavalry among the North Wolf Guard, which is the elite of the cavalry, and although our street pavilion is not high and the wall is not thick, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if we lose the street pavilion, we are on the plain, it is equal to the lamb to be slaughtered, and now we can only defend to the death, which is the right way!" ”

"If we hold on, how many days can we keep it? I think it's better to go out and attack! ”

Chen Ming, the commander of the 29th Division, squinted slightly and looked at Deng Zhidao.

He is a veteran of the Jiangdong Army, his temper is not very good, he has established meritorious deeds several times, violated military law several times, and later entered the Jinling Lecture Hall for a few years of further study, sharpened his temper, and entered the Bashu Army with Fazheng.

"Three days, that's enough!"

Deng Zhi stood up, his demeanor became cold, and his whole temperament was extremely cold: "Now, I announce the order, the 29th Division will guard the south city of the town, the 30th Division will guard the north city of the town, and the 31st Division will retreat to Longshan!" ”

"Retreat to Longshan?"

The commander of the 31st Division was a tall and burly strong man, named Gao Xiang, the youngest of the three division commanders, he glared at him with awe-inspiring eyes, and said: "Chief of Staff, the 31st Division is the strongest combat effectiveness of the Ninth Army, why should we put it on hold!" ”

"It's not shelving, it's accumulating strength, once the street pavilion is lost, we will retreat to Longshan, which can be regarded as prepared!"

The corners of Deng Zhi's mouth raised a bitter smile: "The Ninth Army is the bait, the bait to lure the Wei Army, if we are not careful, it is not impossible for the whole army to be annihilated, we have to leave some seeds for the Ninth Army, if the 29th Division and the 30th Division really can't stop it, then the 31st Division may have to save the main force to break through!" ”

When the generals heard this, their expressions sank, and their mood suddenly sank.

"Prepare now!" Deng Zhi was resolute.

"No!" Although the generals were in a precipitated mood, they were mentally prepared, and they were not too obsessed with this, and they took the orders one by one.

"Wang Ping!"

"In!"

"Didn't the news come back!"

"I've sent four messengers, and I'm going to send them back quickly!" Wang Ping is the leader of the young generation of the Ninth Army, with good martial arts and steady personality, serving as the commander of the scout battalion, which has always made Chen Zhi and Deng Zhi very important, he arched his hand and said: "It is estimated that there is still one day before we can reach Jicheng!" ”

"You're sending someone to keep an eye on Longxian!" Deng Zhi said.

"The chief of staff is worried about the Wei army in Longxian going north?" Wang Ping was horrified.

"It's not that I'm worried, they're going north!"

Deng Zhi said: "If the Wei army wants to eat our Ninth Army, how can it leave us the slightest space to break through, and the south will inevitably be blocked, but this is the weakest, I need to know their every move, we have no choice but to break through from here!" ”

"I'll send someone to keep an eye on them at once!" Wang Ping took the order and left.

"The Great War is coming!"

Deng Zhi stood up, looked at the sky, and there was a fierce look in his expression: "I'll see who has the appetite to eat my Ninth Army!" ”

――――――――――――――

A day later, the Wei army's left and right vanguard armies had been fiercely pressed towards Jieting Town from two directions, but they did not launch an attack for a long time.

"It seems that the Wu army in the city is very calm?"

"I don't know who the commander of the Wu army in the city is, but he actually has a calm and unfazed attitude!"

"What now?"

"The general wants to force them to come out to fight, but now it is impossible, and we don't have time to waste it, if we don't fight a bloody siege battle, I'm afraid it won't work!"

"In that case, let's move first!"

"Hmm!"

Zhang Heng and Yang Qiu, the two Xiliang warriors, briefly met each other, and under the collegial discussion of the two, they soon had a resolution, and the 30,000 soldiers and horses under their command pressed up in one breath and launched a strong attack on the street pavilion.

"Kill!"

"Hit me hard!"

"Whatever it takes, rush up and break through this wall!"

"Boys, rush!"

The Northern Wolf Guard fused the elite of the remnants of the Wei army, and was also very good at siege battles, and under the strong attack of 30,000 soldiers and horses, the pressure on the city was great.

"Block!"

"Push the logs, crush them for me!"

"Smash the rocks!"

"Shoot an arrow, get closer and shoot again!"

The Wu army had been hoarding in the town for a long time, and had already prepared, and the fortifications were well prepared, and they gave the Wei soldiers a fierce counterattack as soon as they came up.

The Great War is in full swing.

At this time, in the north direction of the street pavilion, the main force of the North Wolf Guard was belatedly under the leadership of Ma Chao himself, looking at the remnants of the sunset, Ma Chao stationed his soldiers and horses on the plain thirty miles away.

"Assault?"

In a temporary camp tent, Ma Chao received the battle report from the front, and his eyebrows were a little unhappy: "Didn't a certain family ask them to force Wu Jun to leave the street pavilion as much as possible?" ”

"General, Wu Jun is very cautious and calm, they make it clear that they want to defend the street pavilion!" Fu Zhu said softly: "Zhang Heng and Yang Qiu took the initiative to attack, and they also made a decision immediately, I am afraid that this battle will be a bloody battle!" ”

"Strategist, after you entered Liangzhou, did you have a feeling that they seemed to have been prepared for a long time, just waiting for us to attack!"

Since Ma Chao listened to Ma Dai's warning, his mood has always been tense, even if there is a little wind and grass, he feels very inappropriate: "You said that the battle of Jieting will be a trap for Wu Jun?" ”

"General, don't you think too much!"

Hearing this, he frowned slightly, he thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head, and said: "The Wu army of the street pavilion can't defend it, it can only show that the street pavilion guards are extraordinary, if the Wu army had been prepared, how could they allow our Northern Wolf Guard to enter Liangzhou, and drop ten times with one force, and now our 100,000 elites appear on the battlefield in Liangzhou, which is enough to turn the tide on the battlefield!" ”

"You're right, I'm too suspicious!"

Ma Chao took a deep breath, his mood calmed down, and his eyes became sharp and cold: "Since the fight has already started, then fight hard, pass on my military order, early tomorrow morning, the whole army will go south and throw into the street pavilion, within three days, the street pavilion Wu army must be destroyed!" ”

"No!"

When the generals heard this, they bowed down to their leaders and left to prepare for a strong attack. (To be continued.) )
