Chapter 935: Big Risk, Big Benefit!
Chengdu City.
Xishu Palace.
In a large hall, the atmosphere was a little solemn, and the generals present were all people who understood, and as soon as Sun Quan's question was asked, they immediately understood Sun Quan's intentions.
It's just that this intention makes them a little shocked.
Li Ne took a step forward, arched his hands, and reported to Sun Quan in a deep voice: "Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed some emptiness in Luoyang City now, there are not many soldiers and horses left by the Wei army, they are all dispatched to the west of the 200,000 soldiers and horses in the suburbs of Beijing, and the largest battle tiger and leopard cavalry also went to Bingzhou, intending to make a comeback, and then destroy the blood wolf army, in Luoyang City, there are only more than 10,000 Royal Forest Army at most!" ”
"Ten thousand Imperial Guards?"
When Sun Quan heard this, a pair of amber eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems that it is really a godsend!" ”
"Your Majesty, you won't want ......"
Lu Bu frowned, looking at Sun Quan, his face looked a little frightened, this is really crazy.
Hearing this, the general's breathing became a little heavy, and a pair of eyes stared at this Sun Quan, Sun Quan wanted to be steady, how could he suddenly have such a risky idea.
"Yes, you didn't guess wrong, I want to fight Luoyang, and the victory will be decided in one battle!"
Sun Quan's expression was calm and categorical.
"Your Majesty, the last general is against it!"
When Sun Ce heard this, he directly stepped forward, faced Sun Quan, and said without scruples: "10,000 elite Wei troops, guarding the city with thick walls, there is enough food and grass supply, we need at least 70,000 or 80,000 elite soldiers and horses to break through, but now we don't have this strength at all, don't forget, there are at least 50,000 or 60,000 elite Wei troops in Yangping Pass, and we can't get through at all!" ”
Yangping Pass is a big pass for Hanzhong, but it is also a pass for Guanzhong. This is a two-sided threshold.
Now the Wei general Cao Xiu has gathered Zhang He's Huzhong Army and Zhang Lu's Hanzhong Army, with at least 50,000 elites, relying on the geographical location of Yangping Pass, it is like a nail, nailed to Hanzhong.
The two major generals of the Wu army, Gan Ning and Xue Zhou, led their troops north. After attacking Hanzhong, Yangping Pass was attacked repeatedly, but it was always unbeatable.
This is not a pass that can be broken in a moment and a half, and once the Wu army dispatches a large number of soldiers and horses to attack Yangping Pass, it will immediately alarm Luoyang, as long as Yangping Pass resists for a few days, Luoyang can send troops and reinforcements.
Luoyang looks empty, but it is located in the hinterland of the Great Wei, and there are doors outside in all directions. Can't get in at all.
"But if I have a way to conquer Yangping Pass in one day, is this battle feasible?"
Sun Quan said in a deep voice.
Dawu has a big killing weapon, which has never been used, even when the Western Expedition was the most intense, it has not been used, and good steel should be used on the blade, which Sun Quan prepared for Cao Wei.
Regardless of whether the trial is successful or not. This killer weapon definitely has a certain amount of power, and it shouldn't be a problem to blow up Yangping Pass.
"Your Majesty wants to use the Tianpeng Army?"
Lu Bu heard this. His eyes moved, and he said in a deep voice: "But Yangping Pass is different from Pujia Pass, there is no fulcrum for landing, and the Tianpeng Army can't work!" ”
In fact, he didn't agree with Sun Quan fighting a battle in his heart, and Da Wu was fighting steadily step by step, with the current situation. At least seventy percent of the advantages can determine the world.
There is no need to take risks.
But Sun Quan didn't think so in his heart, the more battles he fought, the more disgusted he was with the battlefield, and there was an urgent desire in his heart to end the era of war.
So even if there is only the slightest opportunity, he has to seize it. Capture the thief and kill Cao Cao, Cao Wei will be self-defeating, and there will be no obstacle for Great Wu to dominate the world.
"It's not the Tianpeng Army, although the Air Force is good, but it is not yet mature, and it can only rely on this parachute, which is difficult to achieve!"
Sun Quan shook his head: "I have another way, so I'll say, if I can break through the Yangping Pass in one day, can this battle be fought?" ”
Li Nie's eyes moved, he was an insider among the few people, he knew early on that Da Wu had a killing weapon, and the secret work was still done by Jinyiwei.
"If Yangping Pass can be broken, it can be beaten!" Lu Bu thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "The main force of the Wei army is in the west, and the troops of Yuzhou and Jizhou will not be able to come back for a while, if we form a cavalry assault army, we can enter Luoyang City in a short period of time and capture Cao Mengde alive, and we can destroy Wei in one fell swoop!" ”
"But Your Majesty, you have to think twice!"
Xu Shu stood up at this time, reminded in a low voice, and said: "This battle is too risky, as soon as you enter the pass, you are in the hinterland of the enemy, once you fail, life and death are unpredictable!" ”
"Big risk, in exchange for big benefits!"
Sun Quan's expression was silent, there was a trace of struggle in his eyes, and now he somewhat understood the meaning of the superior and the thought of life and death.
It's a bad decision.
But he has to make a decision, and there are some opportunities, once missed, he will always miss them, a great opportunity.
"Lei Ding!" Sun Quan shouted
"In!"
"Within a radius of ten miles from the palace, be on guard immediately, and no one shall enter or leave without my order!"
"No!"
Lei Ding, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, quickly transferred troops to martial law and imposed martial law on the entire Xishu Palace.
"I admit that I am in a hurry, but I can't afford to miss this God-given opportunity!"
In the main hall, Sun Quan's body stood up, his expression became persistent and firm, his sharp eyes swept over his faces, and his calm voice was absolutely decisive: "I want to fight a good battle, no one would have thought that I would send troops to attack Wei at this time, if I can succeed, I can dominate the world, avoid a stalemate in the chaos of the world, and create a prosperous world, of course, if it can't be done, we may face a heavy setback, but since I decided to gamble, then it will not change, from now on, you will obey the order and don't ask why, Feasible? ”
"No!"
When all the generals heard this, they all took a deep breath and kept calm, they could stand here, they could understand Sun Quan's character somewhat, and sometimes they were very talkative, but once he decided something, no one could stop him.
This is the majesty of his king, even if it is wrong, as long as he believes it, no one can refute it.
"Ligne!" Sun Quan began to point to the general.
"The minister is here!"
"This battle is about stealth and speed, cleaning up the ghosts. I don't want the slightest leak! Sun Quan said ruthlessly: "If Jin Yiwei can't do it, he will take the blame himself!" ”
"Yes!"
Li Ne nodded, and the murderous intent in his hazy eyes was awe-inspiring: "I'd rather kill the wrong one than let it go, and I will never let the news leak!" ”
"Lu Bu!"
"In!"
"Tell your henchmen to give me a few orders at once, this time I'm going to be a dictatorship. You don't have to go through the military aircraft department, go directly to the battalions, and do it within three days! ”
Sun Quan's eyes were cold, and he said categorically: "The first military order, order the flame battalion to pour out of the nest and feint to attack Xuzhou, Qingzhou, the momentum must be loud, and the Wei army in the southeast must be dragged down, the second military order." Ordered Taiwei Ju Yi to form 30,000 soldiers and horses within five days, at all costs, to enter Jiujiang, and force Yuzhou, the third military order, the Black Mountain Army in northern Xinjiang, and the Blood Wolf Army. The Mad Lion Army, an all-out counterattack on the northern frontier. The state can be lost, and Youzhou can be lost, but all the Wei troops in Jizhou must be dragged to death! ”
"Yes!"
Lu Bu looked solemn, and quickly sent people thousands of miles to rush to convey Sun Quan's military order.
Once these orders were issued, the Wu army would be annoyed and angry at the Wei army. And the situation of an all-out counterattack at all costs can somewhat confuse Cao Cao in Luoyang City.
"Sun Ce!" Sun Quan continued to order.
"The last general!"
"I now order you to immediately requisition all the cavalry of the Western Expedition, remember all the cavalry, no matter whatever. Whether it is our soldiers and horses or the surrender army, as long as it is cavalry, I will, and then form a temporary cavalry army, which will be completed within five days, temporarily with Lu Bu as the main general, your deputy general, Xuancheng to the outside world, rectify the cavalry, and wait for orders! ”
"Yes!"
Sun Ce raised his eyebrows, and a sense of war came to his heart, if he could destroy Wei, this battle would be enough to enter the annals of history.
"Li Ne, Xu Shu!"
Sun Quan looked at the two top military divisions: "You set up a combat team and discuss the quickest, quickest, and most convenient marching route as soon as possible, from Chengdu to Luoyang, but the issue of arranging grain and grass, as well as the details of the march!" ”
"Yes!"
Li Nie and Xu Shu nodded, and took the order with solemn expressions.
With Sun Quan's orders issued one after another, the generals of the entire Western Expeditionary Army began to move, and the Western Expeditionary Army, which had just taken Shuchuan and had only relaxed a little, suddenly became solemn.
————————————————————————
The winter wind and snow are becoming more and more manic.
On a wharf in Chengdu City, Xuehua covered the dozens of Dawu Navy warships docked with a layer of silver, and a young man in a Confucian robe, with a scholar, embarked on the largest warship.
"Mr. Zhuge , please!"
This is a small naval fleet, led by a battalion commander, who stands up and greets the youth.
"Thank you!"
Zhuge Liang glanced at the other party, smiled slightly, nodded, and when he walked on the deck, he turned around, glanced at Chengdu City, and there was some nostalgia in his eyes.
At this time, he spread out a silver dollar in his hand.
For this silver dollar that determined his fate, he stayed, as a reminder to himself, he asked himself that wisdom can control fate, so he made careful calculations at every step, but sometimes fate depends on luck.
"Stay with the strategist!"
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves accompanied by an impatient sound sounded like a violent wind.
"Uncle Zhi!"
Zhuge Liang stood on the deck, raised his head slightly, looked ahead, and Chen Dao, who was riding a horse alone, galloped wildly, and felt a trace of nostalgia in his heart.
After all, it's not a lonely person who leaves in a hurry.
"This general, can you give me time for half a burnt incense?"
Zhuge Liang turned his head, looked at the naval battalion commander in front of him, and asked in a harmonious voice.
"Mr. Zhuge please take care of yourself, my task is to escort you to Guishuang, follow your orders, the military has an upper and lower system, Mr. Zhuge is my boss, you must not call me a general, Mr. Zhuge Liang can call me Han Luo, or Han Battalion Commander, you can!"
The commander of the naval battalion said respectfully.
Zhuge Liang is not a prisoner, he is the newly appointed chief of staff of the Sea Eagle Battalion, of course, as a general, or a general who is feared by the imperial court, he has a name and no rights.
But as a regular army, the army pays attention to military orders like an army, and the military orders are handed down from the upload, even if Zhuge Liang does not have the right to transfer troops. As long as he is still his direct boss, he must be respected.
"Thank you, Camp Commander Han!" Zhuge Liang stepped off the deck, looked at Chen Zhi who came in a hurry, and looked a little angry: "Uncle Zhi, why are you suffering?" ”
Now the old ministers of Shu Kingdom, who doesn't want to break up relations with him. Chen Zhi, as the head of the generals, the chief general of the Bashu battalion who has taken office, the person who should have a clear relationship with him the most, but he wants to break off the connection with him, isn't this the bottom line of provoking Sun Zhongmou?
"Strategist, although we are not the relationship between the top and bottom in the past, but Strategist is still a friend of Chen, and now you are about to leave the Central Plains and live in a barren land. Chen Zhi also wants to send the military division! ”
Chen Zhi turned over and dismounted, smiled slightly, didn't care, and said very directly.
In fact, Chen Zhi is already very satisfied to see Zhuge Liang survive, although Zhuge Liang is about to be assigned to the Western Regions now, but at least there is still hope.
"Do you know how many people are staring at you these days?"
Zhuge Liang said in a low voice.
"I have a clear conscience, and I will be faithful if I surrender. If you are afraid of them, you will not come to send them to the army. It will be difficult for me to face myself in the future, even in the face of His Majesty, I say so! ”
Chen Zhi was very persistent.
"Hehe, stunned, I suddenly understand why His Majesty has so many choices. But he values you so much, but his eyes are very close, but Uncle Zhi, Your Majesty will not be afraid of you, and it doesn't mean that others will believe you. Your temperament has to be changed, now it's different from the past, although Your Majesty trusts you, but you are a subordinate after all! ”
Zhuge Liang was a little moved in his heart, and reminded: "Remember my words, if you want to control the Bashu camp, you have to use the group of talents that Li Nie and Xu Shu inserted, you can't just use the old department, only in this way can you really gain their trust!" ”
"I see!"
Chen Zhi nodded.
"This farewell, I don't know when we will meet again, you have to take care!" Zhuge Liang patted Chen Zhi's shoulder and said in a deep voice.
"Take care, I hope to see the day you return to the Central Plains!" Chen Zhidao.
"Yes!"
Zhuge Liang showed a confident smile in his expression, and then strode up to the cabin of the warship, and the fleet was drawn.
"This may be the best outcome!"
Looking at the battle flags of the Sea Eagle Army that were gradually moving away on the river, Chen Zhi took a deep breath, turned over his horse, and went directly in the direction of Xishu Palace.
He has been recruited by Sun Quan and is about to go on the expedition, although he doesn't know what the mission is, but he is looking forward to the first battle after his surrender to Sun Wu.
——————————————————————————
A day later.
In the Xishu Palace, in a temporarily established operational command hall, Li Nie, Xu Shu, and Chen Gong, who had just returned, the three top military divisions, with more than a dozen staff officers, were carefully comparing detailed marching maps, intending to draw a marching route.
"I think it's more appropriate to take Chencang, this road is relatively flat!"
"The time of this battle should be fast, if we take Chencang, a little westward, and even face the interception of Chang'an, I suggest taking the Xiegu Road, which is the most convenient road, straight to Hongnong, with the speed of cavalry, at most five or six days, you can enter Luoyang!"
"I also think it's faster to take the slope road!"
"But have you ever thought about it, the road of the valley road is too steep for the cavalry to walk!"
"Chen Cang must not go, after all, in front of Chen Cang, there is a loose pass, this is a more important pass in the pass, there must be someone to guard it, it is a trouble for us!"
“……”
When several top military divisions plan a battle at the same time, they naturally use a magnifying glass to find out one problem after another, and then overcome these problems and make the most careful preparations before the battle.
Outside of the big point, Sun Quan strode in and asked, "Has your discussion come to fruition?" ”
"Your Majesty, we preliminarily believe that the safest route is to break through Yangping Pass, and then go north from Xiegu Road, along the largest official road in Chang'an and Luoyang, one horse Pingchuan, swaggering, and go straight to Luoyang!"
Xu Shu stood up and reported.
"What about the estimated time?"
"From Chengdu Yangping Pass is not counted, this is already our territory, in addition to the help of Zhuge Liang at the beginning, the entire ghost pawn southwest hall entrance was swept by me, calculating that we will make a big move, the reaction of Luoyang City will not be so fast, wait until we break through Yangping Pass, go directly to the north, all the cavalry, six days can arrive, if you encounter a certain place of blocking, or harassing interception, you can also come to the city within ten days, and the Wei army, I calculate that they can return to the defense as soon as possible, at least half a month!"
When Li Ne heard this, he reported carefully.
"It's already winter, don't forget, the wind and snow are not good for our march!" Sun Quan said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, these factors, I have already taken them into account, if it weren't for the wind and snow, our cavalry would be able to directly attack the city within three days!" Li Niedao.
"Good!" Sun Quan nodded in satisfaction.
"Your Majesty, there is one more question, we can't make a decision!"
"Say!"
"Who's the main general?" Ligne asked.
"I!"
The corners of Sun Quan's mouth slightly outlined a trace of arc: "Since you want to fight, you have to do your best to fight, I am the main general, Lu Bu, Sun Ce, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Lei Ding, all fight with the army, Cao Mengde is not qualified to kill in person, only I go in person, I have this qualification!" ”
The six fierce generals are united, a rare formation in the world, enough to be invincible, even if they lose this battle and fall into a million troops, they can break through. (To be continued.) )
