Xu Sheng turned around and left. ⊥ top novel,

Seeing Xu Sheng's figure go away, Yuan Wei suddenly regretted and said, "I should have let Xu Sheng break off if I knew it." ”

Now it is Gan Ning who is responsible for the break, Gan Ning's force value is significantly higher than Xu Sheng's, and the ability to attack fortifications is several levels higher.

Therefore, with Gan Ning in charge of tackling the fortifications, it is obvious that the chances of winning are greater.

However, it is obviously too late to transfer Gan Ning now.

Moreover, the pursuers behind him also need a fierce general like Gan Ning to deter.

Liu Ye also sighed and said: "Childe, it's too late to transfer Gan Ning's subordinates now, Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, before you think about victory, you must prepare for the worst, if Wen Xiang can't break through the Rock Valley within two hours, what should I do then?" Where should our army go? ”

Yuan nodded silently.

It is true that you should think about defeat before you win.

At that moment, Yuan Wei motioned to Ji Ling to take out the map, spread it out on the grass, and then stood in front of the map with Liu Ye.

"Here." Liu Ye first found the location of the Panshi Valley on the map, pointed to the Panshi Valley with his finger, and said, "Turning over the Panshi Valley is the northern foot of Dabie Mountain, and less than a hundred miles further is Lu'an County, but Lu'an is the lair of the Zhang family. ”

Yuan Fu's eyes fell on both sides of the Rock Valley, and asked Ding Feng: "Ah Feng, from here to Lu'an County, there is only one way to go from the Rock Valley." Is there really no other way out? ”

"The road is there. For experienced hunters. Where in the mountains is not the road? After Ding Feng finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the mountains on the left and right sides of the Rock Valley, and said, "Let's just say that this mountain can actually be climbed!" ”

"Will this work?" When Yuan heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

Ni Mei, since you can climb over the mountains on both sides of the Rock Valley, why fight the Rock Valley desperately?

However, Ding Feng's next sentence was like a basin of cold water poured on Yuan Fu's head: "Don't be happy too early, son. Although this mountain can be climbed, it will take at least half a month to walk, and all the baggage horses must be thrown away, and even so, no more than half of them will be able to climb the mountain alive in the end. ”

When Yuan heard this, his face immediately collapsed, and he threw away the horse's baggage? How does this work?

Without horses, there will be no cavalry, and he Yuan will have one less trump card in his hand to dominate the enemy!

No baggage. That would be even more troublesome, because crossing the Dabie Mountains is only the first step in the long march. There is a more arduous journey waiting for them next, no food, let them go to Hebei hungry?

What's more, it will take half a month to cross this mountain, and half a month later, Zhou Yu's army has already set up a pocket formation outside the mountain, and when they are exhausted and finally get out of the lofty mountains, they just happened to bump into the Jiangdong army that has been waiting for a long time, so what will be the final result, so there is still a need to think about it?

I can think of it with my toes, and it must be a death.

At this point, Yuan Wei had a deep understanding of the concept of "road".

There is a road and there is no road, it is different! There is no road, and it is better not to go into the mountains.

It is no wonder that in history, there are so many Xiongguan fortresses, although the Xiongguan fortress blocks the entire mountain, it is enough to block the road in it, and as long as the road is blocked, the army is basically unable to pass.

Under the premise that there is no road, it is not impossible for you to force through, but the premise is that you must abandon all the heavy grain and grass, and after crossing the mountain, the whole army will become exhausted.

From this, it shows how lucky Deng Ai was to sneak attack Yinping Xiaodao to destroy Shu Kingdom.

Yuan Wei did not dare to follow Deng Ai's example and risk the only 3,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

What's more, his opponent is still Zhou Yu, one of the best commanders in the Three Kingdoms period!

Thinking of this, Yuan Wei suddenly thought of another serious question, and immediately asked Ding Feng: "Ding Feng, doesn't this mean that if we can't break through the Rock Valley, we will be blocked by the Jiangdong Army at both ends?" In the end, you will either be trapped in this rocky valley, or you will venture into the old forest and find a way to survive at any cost? ”

Ding Feng nodded and said, "It's basically like this, but it's ......"

"But what?" Yuan Wei was anxious when he heard this, "You speak quickly." ”

Ding Feng said: "But if you go back more than 50 miles, you will know that there is another path that leads to the Red Leaf Valley. ”

"Momiji Valley?" Yuan Wei suddenly perked up when he heard this, Red Leaf Valley is one of the three routes from Xunyang to Runan, although it is not the best route, but it is not the most difficult to walk.

Because he knew that the Jiangdong Army had already stationed troops in the Dabie Mountains, Yuan Wei was worried that as time passed, the Jiangdong Army would build a fortress in the Dabie Mountains and block all the three passages, so he chose to march immediately.

And because Ding Feng detected that the Jiangdong Army had ambushed heavy troops in Baiyunjian, the most difficult to walk, and in Luojiawan, which was the best to go, the Jiangdong Army was just bluffing, so Yuan Wei chose the Luojiawan route without hesitation, but he never thought that Zhou Yu would use the beacon fire and wolf smoke to mobilize the Jiangdong Army in the mountains in time to continuously intercept the Yuan army!

Yuan Nuo was troubled by the continuous interception of the Jiangdong Army, but the news provided by Ding Feng inadvertently made Yuan Nuo's eyes suddenly brighten, right, Sister Ni, you Zhou Yu transferred heavy troops to chase and intercept in the Rock Valley, Lao Tzu didn't go to the Rock Valley, okay? Is it okay for Lao Tzu to change to Red Leaf Valley?

Everything in the world is a complex of contradictions, and everything has advantages and disadvantages.

On the contrary, there are disadvantages and advantages, let's just say that now, the Jiangdong Army seems to have completed the encirclement and interception of the Yuan Army, but on the other hand, the Jiangdong Army has also been completely mobilized by the Yuan Army, along the way, the Yuan Army has broken the four-way Jiangdong Army, and the Jiangdong Army at the mouth of the Panshi Valley is already the fifth Jiangdong Army.

At this time, if Yuan Jun suddenly changed the route and changed from Panshi Valley to the Red Leaf Valley route, Zhou Yu wanted to transfer troops and generals, would it be too late in time? Does he still have enough elite soldiers in his hands that can be reposed?

At that moment, Yuan Wei instructed Ji Ling and said: "Old general, immediately notify Wen Xiang that the order will be cancelled, and Panshi Valley will not fight!" ”

"No!" Ji Ling waved his hand at Yuan No, personally acted as a herald, and ran to convey the military order to Xu Sheng.

Yuan Fu turned back to Ding Feng and said, "Ah Feng, you will go back the same way and inform Gan Ning that he will lead the men and horses of the headquarters as the vanguard, and march into the Red Leaf Valley from the path you said!" ”

"No!" Ding Feng also received the order.

It wasn't until Ji Ling and Ding were ordered to go that Liu Ye said, "Childe, are you planning to change the route to the Red Leaf Valley?" ”

"That's right." Yuan Fu said with a smile, "Zhou Yu tried his best to trap us in the Rock Valley, but this son is not as good as he wants, this son is now changing to the Red Leaf Valley route, but I want to see what if he can still take this son?" Can he still bring in another five-way elite soldier and trap us in Red Leaf Valley? ”

Half an hour later, the Yuan army in the Rock Valley began to slowly retreat.

The unusual movements of Yuan's army immediately alarmed Taniguchi's Jiangdong army.

"General, look!" The captain of the pro-soldier pointed to the rock valley and said, "Yuan No's army seems to be retreating!" ”

Dong Xi nodded silently, the captain of the pro-soldier did not say that he had also seen it, although the four or five hundred Yuan troops who had rushed to the Rock Valley first did not move, but the Yuan army that arrived later was indeed retreating, although it was not very tangential in the night, but the long dragon formed by the torches was flowing out of the valley, but it was always visible.

The captain of the pro-soldier said again: "General, let's pursue, if we don't chase Yuan No's army, we will go away." ”

Dong Raid's heart was pounding, if he led the army to rush down the ramp at this time, there was undoubtedly a great chance to defeat Yuan's army, because the retreating army was the easiest to cause chaos, once Yuan's army fell into chaos, even only three hundred elite soldiers were needed, Dong Raid was confident that it would be completely defeated, if it really defeated Yuan's army, it would undoubtedly be a great achievement!

However, Dong Xi thought of Zhou Yu's advice before he set out for the expedition: For generals, don't be greedy!

Yes, don't be greedy for merit for the sake of the generals! Since the military order of the Governor only requires him to hold the Rock Valley, then he can only hold the Rock Valley, at least, he must not leave here until the Governor's new military order is issued!

At that moment, Dong Xi snorted coldly and said, "Order, everyone is not allowed to act rashly!" (To be continued......)
