NO.571 OUTSTANDING ENCIRCLEMENT, A PLACE TO GO
Seeing that Jingxiang's military horses retreated, how could Jia Xu let go of such a good opportunity? At that moment, he ordered his subordinates to approach Tushan, surrounded the Jingxiang army and horses on the top of the mountain, and sent envoys up the mountain to persuade Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu to surrender.
In the battle under the mountain, although Jingxiang's military horses were damaged a lot, in Guan Yu's opinion, there was still a battle force, and the next day it broke out of the encirclement, and it was not a big problem.
After seeing Cao Ying's persuasion to surrender the envoy, Guan Yu sneered and said to the envoy: "Jia Xu Lao'er dares to be so big? Could it be that he really thinks that Guan Mou can't be eaten? β
The messenger could not reach Guan Yuhuwei, and he didn't dare to say much, but Zhuge Liang saw this and said: "Yun Chang, why bother with an envoy. β
After that, Zhuge Liang looked at the envoy of Cao Jun and said: "The two armies are fighting and not killing the envoys, you go back and tell Jia Wenhe, who will kill the deer, it is not yet known!" β
Drove back the envoy of the Cao army, Zhuge Liang thought about the breakthrough the next day, the Cao army was overwhelmed this time, and that Jia Xu was obviously a person who did not achieve his goal and did not stop, and he would fight again the next day, and he would also strictly guard against Jia Xu's cold-blooded methods today.
The plotter who turned a deaf ear to the lives of his soldiers, Zhuge Liang still encountered it for the first time, Jia Xu's repeated actions can be described as extremely powerful, and now, Zhuge Liang also understands Jia Xu's thoughts.
If all the Jingxiang troops and horses can be annihilated, Shouchun Hefei has no soldiers available, and it is difficult to hold for a long time, Jia Xu violated Cao Cao's orders this time, which is to want to be on the battlefield in Xuzhou and Yangzhou, so Cao Cao went south to open up the situation.
This kind of plan is really bold, thinking of this, Zhuge Liang is not as angry as before, Jia Xu's cold-blooded behavior......
The two armies fought each other. Each is its own master, although the means are different, but the purpose is different.
It's just that Jia Xu is so ruthless, which makes Zhuge Liang feel quite tricky, and after thinking for a long time, Zhuge Liang said: "Fortunately, I have ordered Wen Chang to leave before." β
"If Wen Chang is here, 5,000 military horses can also compete with Cao Jun again." When Guan Yu heard this, he was quite puzzled, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Our army is currently outnumbered, but why did the military division say it." Wen Chang left. But it's a good thing? β
"Don't forget that the military horses carried by the chief are grain transport teams, and they carry a lot of baggage and move slowly. If besieged by Cao's army. It will be difficult to escape......" Zhuge Liang said. Guan Yu suddenly realized.
Guan Yu saw Zhuge Liang sweep away the gloom on his face, and he was overjoyed, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Mr. has a strategy to break the enemy?" β
Zhuge Liang heard this. Shaking his head slightly, he said: "It is not realistic to defeat the Cao army in Tushan, the other side has a large number of troops, we can only be clumsy, if we fight with it for a long time, presumably Jia Xu will still use today's great ingenuity to annihilate us in the way of exchanging injuries for injuries." β
Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, but saw Zhuge Liang's words turn around, and said: "It's just to highlight the encirclement, when the problem is not big, Jia Xu doesn't know that most of the supplies in our army were taken away by Wen Chang, if he fights again the next day, he must think that our army's food team should be a flaw, and if our army has no food and grass, it will be difficult to go far......"
"But the grain and grass have been taken away by Wen Chang......" Guan Yu said, happy in his heart, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Mr. has already counted today's matter?" β
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said to Guan Yu: "Everything is expected to be the enemy first, that is not a military advisor, but a military god...... Liang never thought that Jia Xu would be so difficult before. It's just that our army has few soldiers, and the enemy is in the mountains and forests, and the chances of victory are greater, so I ordered Wen Chang to prepare early, and to store grain and suppress bandits in the mountains. β
When Guan Yu heard this, he nodded again and again.
Guan Yu knew that although Wei Yan's martial arts were slightly inferior to him, his ability to command the army should not be underestimated, and this person had a rough appearance, but he had many strange strategies in his heart, but his actions had always been radical, so Pang Shanmin attributed Wei Yan to Zhuge Liang's account, wanting to kill the general's irritable spirit.
Ordered Wei Yan to supervise the grain, at first Guan Yu also thought that Zhuge Liang was a little overkill, but now it seems that he is making the best use of his talents, when Wei Yan was stationed in Jingnan in the past, he repeatedly fought with the barbarians of various departments, and he had a lot of experience in Lin Zhan, just a few bandits and grass cowards, no matter what, he was not Wei Yan's opponent, two days, enough for Wei Yan to open up a large hiding place for the Jingxiang army.
The commanders of the two armies had their own thoughts, and after Jia Xu ordered the lieutenant generals of the battalion to camp at the foot of the mountain, he also summoned Zhang He and the generals to discuss the war together.
This victory, although many soldiers under his command were damaged, but the Jingxiang army and horses were trapped on the mountain, such a situation, even Zhang He and others also felt that Jia Xu's strategy was very cost-effective.
Now that the encirclement has been completed, if the military horses on the mountain can be trapped until the food and water are exhausted, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu are afraid that they can only survive if they surrender, if this battle can break an arm of the Wolong and Phoenix Chicks that Pang Shanmin relies on the most, and the five tiger generals will go to one of them, Jing Xiang will be shaken.
At that time, Cao Jun will regain the lost territory this time, and the big thing can be accomplished, and Jia Xu can also take Shouchun and Hefei by the way, and avenge the previous repeated loss of land!
Jia Xu was excited to see all the generals, and his heart was also happy.
It's just that Jia Xu knows that Zhuge Liang cannot be underestimated, and if he fights again in the future, it will also be a bloody battle.
The reason why Jia Xu besieged Jingxiang's army and horses was that it was expected that it would be difficult to carry his baggage, and even if he broke through the siege, he would not return to Shouchun before he could return to Shouchun, and he would have to run out of food. Therefore, in Jia Xu's view, Zhuge Liang's biggest miscalculation in this battle was that the two armies met suddenly, and Zhuge Liang could only rely on this small "geographical advantage" to deal with Cao's army.
Digging deep trenches and strictly preventing Cao's cavalry from rushing to the mountain was nothing more than a lack of donkey skills, and he wanted to make Cao's army frightened and did not dare to attack rashly.
However, Jia Xu did not care about the battle losses, so that his first move has been lost, Jia Xu believes that now as long as the Jingxiang army and horses, besiege but not attack, can also win a big victory.
At this point in the war, Jia Xu didn't want to consume a lot of soldiers' lives, after all, if he surrounded it for a few days, he could make meritorious contributions, and in the future, he would lead troops to be stationed in Hefei and Shouchun, if he only fought for a few days of early victory, and then caused a large number of casualties, it was not worth it.
Thinking of this, Jia Xu ordered three generals under his command, each guarding one side, and Jia Xu personally led the Chinese army to besiege Tushan on all sides.
And Jia Xu told the three generals that once the enemy broke through, there was no need to pursue, and ordered all generals to focus on burning the enemy's grain and grass......
When the three generals heard Jia Xu's words, they all took orders and left, until the next morning, in the Cao camp army at the foot of the mountain, the rumbling drums sounded again.
It's just that it was not Jing Xiang who was fighting at this time, but Jia Xu.
Zhang He, Yu Ban, and Le Jin led the soldiers and horses of the three generals, galloped under the mountain, showing off their might, Guan Yu saw the virtue of the three generals on the mountainside, and secretly said that the villain was ambitious.
Once upon a time, it was their turn to shout?
Although Guan Yu was quite annoyed in his heart, he also knew that this was not the time to settle accounts with these three people, and yesterday he was ordered by Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu reorganized his military horses, prepared to break through, and wandered on the mountainside, just because Guan Yu wanted to find the negligent place of the enemy's formation.
After observing for a long time, Guan Yu patted his horse back, went to the camp in the mountains, turned over and dismounted, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Military division, the sons and daughters under his command are ready, Guan Mouguan is in the forbidden station, Cao Jun is the least, although its formation is rigorous, Guan wants to break through, but it is not difficult." β
Zhuge Liang nodded slightly when he heard this.
Knowing that Jia Xu was surrounded by mountains on all sides, Zhuge Liang knew that his plan would be successful.
Surrounded on all sides, the troops will inevitably be scattered, there are only more than 10,000 guards in each place, Jingxiang military horses can choose any direction, they can break through, Jia Xu must be planning to wait for Jingxiang military horses to escape, cut off the heavy grain and grass, but that Jia Xu does not know that now in the Jingxiang army, the grain and grass have been taken away by Wei Yan, and there is not much surplus grain......
"And let Na Jia Xu's calculations be all in vain!" Zhuge Liang said and said to Guan Yu: "Since Yun Chang has a choice, Yun Chang will be in charge of breaking through the siege, and when my army is out of the encirclement, I will go to the mountains and join Wen Chang!" β
When Guan Yu heard this, he turned over and got on his horse, and ordered all the soldiers to assemble quickly.
Seeing that the flag on the mountain kept moving, and the Jingxiang military horse wanted to break through, Jia Xu only sneered, and said secretly in his heart: Qian donkey skills are poor! Isn't the Zhuge villager so naΓ―ve, thinking that he can escape by fighting his way out of the encirclement?
Thinking of this, Jia Xu simply ignored the changes on the mountain, and only waited for the Jingxiang army and horses to leave, and burned their grain and grass, and then drove the army to cover up and kill, and when the Jingxiang army was sleepy and lacking horses, it was the time for Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu to be awarded!
In less than half an hour, Guan Yu had already ordered the army and horses, and Zhuge Liang gave an order, and more than 10,000 troops in Jingxiang gathered together and rushed down the mountain, wanting to rush into the forbidden army array.
Yu Banzi remembered Jia Xu's entrustment and ordered his soldiers not to be entangled with the enemy, but only to burn the enemy's grain trucks.
In this way, the Cao soldiers had no intention of fighting, but the Jingxiang army horses were murderous, and the Cao army's formation was broken at the touch of a button, and the Cao army was looking for the grain transportation team in the Jingxiang army.
Until Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and others all went away, but Yu Ban and the soldiers found that Jing Xiang did not bring a cart of grain and grass this time...... Yu Ban was confused, reported the war to Jia Xu, and said to Jia Xu: "Could it be that the Jingxiang army and horses left all the grain trucks in the mountains in order to escape for their lives?" β
When Jia Xu heard this, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to go up the mountain to investigate, and when the soldiers returned, only the dilapidated camp was left in the mountain, and there was no cart of baggage, Jia Xu was furious and muttered: "Where is the grain? Could it be that even if the soldiers of Jing Xiang do not eat, they can fight for a long time? β
"Has it already transported the grain and grass ahead of schedule?" After saying that, Jia Xu shook his head again and again, but now, he didn't see the weight of Jingxiang's grain, Jia Xu was still worried in his heart, and after thinking for a while, Jia Xu secretly said in his heart, it is not the time to investigate where Jingxiang's grain and grass go, if Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu are far away, and then want to surround him, I am afraid it will be even more difficult.
Thinking of this, Pang Tong was busy with the forbidden road: "Wen Ze will chase the enemy first, Jia will order someone to summon him, Wen Qian will come, Jia will personally lead the army, and then come!" Wen rule, don't drag the Jingxiang military horse, don't make it go too fast! β
Yu Ban heard this, hurriedly led the order to go, led the headquarters of the military horses, all the way to chase Guan Yu away, waiting for Zhang He, Le Jin to come, Jia Xu has ordered all the soldiers and horses, and said to the two generals: "The war has changed, the two generals will follow Jia Moudao, chase and kill the enemy!"
