Chapter 295: Trickery
Jia Xu's face froze.
"Liu Bei's battle is tight, now our army is all gathered in Tongguan, once the troops are withdrawn, Liu Bei on the city will find out, will inevitably speculate that our army will change to Wuguan Road, Wuguan and Tongguan are not much apart, once he moves troops to Wuguan, the army is not as difficult to cross."
Liu Feng expressed his concerns, if he could hide Liu Bei's eyes and ears, he would have used Jia Xu's strategy a long time ago.
Jia Xu smiled slightly, and said: "It turns out that Guogong is worried about this matter, but in fact, I have a plan, maybe I can help Guogong hide Liu Bei's ears and eyes." β
Jia Xu has a plan!
Liu Feng knew that he was a "poisoner", except for the previous mistake, he was almost a last resort, and seeing that he seemed to be full of confidence, Liu Feng's spirit was suddenly lifted.
"Wen He has a good plan, and I would like to hear about it."
Jia Xu immediately unhurriedly explained his plan, Liu Feng listened quietly, and between his eyebrows, he couldn't help but reveal a little hideous smile.
#####ζ½Όε ³.
Above the city, Liu Bei, who was pale-faced, was looking at the enemy camp under the gate from afar.
Although he now calls himself the king of Guanzhong, at this time, he does not have much confidence and pride in becoming a king.
The state has been lost, the enemy is current, and the general has lost several times, and all these losses cannot be exchanged for the title of the king of Guanzhong.
If Liu Bei was given the choice, he would rather use the name of the king of this level to get back everything he had lost.
Outside the city was Liu Feng's 150,000 land and water army, and he only had less than 50,000 soldiers in his hands, but for Liu Bei, this was enough.
After so many years of fighting, if he can't even defend the first male pass in the world, he Liu Bei can directly wipe his neck and hang himself.
This little self-confidence, Liu Bei still has.
The two armies fought for more than 20 days, and he personally commanded and repelled Liu Feng's several strong attacks, killing and wounding as many as seven or eight thousand enemy soldiers.
Liu Bei's self-confidence is benefiting with Liu Fengjun's retreat again and again.
Now, three full days have passed since the last enemy attack.
In the past three days, Liu Feng did not dare to send troops to attack again, but divided his troops to cut wood everywhere, and successively rebuilt the tents of each battalion into wooden houses.
It seems that Liu Feng intends to take root here, ready to fight a protracted battle.
"Hmph, if you want to consume, then I will consume it with you." Liu Bei sneered, and a trace of disdain flashed on his old face.
To tell the truth, in fact, what Liu Bei hoped for the most was that Liu Feng couldn't attack it for a long time, so he became angry and entangled the main army in Tongguan with a dead face.
Anyway, I'm in danger, as long as I don't relax, even if you attack for another year and a half, what can you do with me?
On the contrary, Liu Feng came with the troops of the country, and he couldn't attack for a long time, and the hearts of the people in the country fluctuated, and over time, there would inevitably change, but this just gave Liu Bei the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to fight back.
Therefore, at present, Liu Feng's move to cut down wood and build a house is in Liu Bei's arms.
"King, there are new changes in Nanyang." I don't know when, Fa Zheng went to the city and presented the information sent by a military pass.
Liu Bei unfolded it and looked at it, with a slight doubt in his expression.
According to the intelligence, the Wenpin Division, which had originally attacked Wuguan, had suddenly retreated 30 miles recently, weakening the intensity of the attack, and according to the reconnaissance made by the meticulous work, it was found that part of the Wenpin Army seemed to be moving towards the three eastern counties.
"Liu Feng, this kid divided the troops of Nanyang into the three eastern counties, could it be that he wanted to increase his troops in Hanzhong, and he couldn't attack Guanzhong from the southern front?" This was Liu Bei's first reaction.
Fa Zheng didn't answer at first, but presented another piece of information: "There is also a battle report on the Qishan side, saying that in recent days, the enemy army in Hanzhong has changed its tactics and transferred most of its troops to Qishan, and is attacking our Qishan camp day and night. Liu Beihu said suspiciously: "The enemy army attacked Qishan, thinking that it wanted to attack Longyou, but although the road was smooth, this route was too long. Moreover, the enemy in Hanzhong lacked horses, even if he attacked Longyou, our army only had to send a cavalry to cut off its grain routes, and then force it to retreat without a fight. What is Liu Feng thinking? β
Liu Bei couldn't guess the opponent's intentions.
Fa Zheng sneered: "Liu Feng is cutting wood and building houses in Tongguan, obviously wanting to take root here, and drag all the main forces of our army in Tongguan and unable to withdraw." The enemy in Hanzhong turned to storm Qishan, most likely trying to attract our soldiers and horses on the southern front to Longyou. In this way, the three valley roads leading from Hanzhong to Guanzhong were guarded empty, and at this time, the enemy of Nanyang entered Hanzhong again and ...... himself"
Before Fa Zheng finished speaking, Liu Bei's expression was suddenly shocked: "Xiaozhi, do you mean that Liu Feng is a plan to attack the east and the west, obviously he wants to attack Qishan, but secretly he wants to attack the pass from the Qinling Valley Road?" β
"That's right, our army is small, this is our fatal disadvantage, the southern front to guard against the enemy in Hanzhong, there are only more than 10,000 people, if all of them are transferred to Qishan, then there will be very few soldiers and horses guarding the three valleys, at this time the enemy suddenly attacked, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Fa Zheng's words made Liu Bei suddenly realize, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It turns out that Liu Feng, this kid, is tricking again, if it weren't for filial piety, I almost fell for his conspiracy." That being the case, the troops of Tongguan were immediately dispatched to reinforce the garrison army at the mouth of the three valleys. β
When Liu Bei dispatched troops and horses to quietly aid the south, more than 100,000 Liu Fengjun outside the gate were still busy cutting down trees and building houses.
Countless wooden houses have replaced tents, and the army of more than 100,000 people, as if a new city has been built on the first line of Tongguan, standing on the gate and looking into the distance, there are houses as far as the eye can see.
In order to ensure logistics and transportation, this expedition to the west, only on the first line of Tongguan, Liu Feng requisitioned nearly 50,000 people.
These people from Nanyang and Luoyang continuously transported grain from the two places to Tongguan to maintain the supply of this 150,000-strong army.
Five days later, Ye Cheng.
This place is only more than 300 miles away from Wancheng, the seat of Nanyang County, after Wei Yan conquered this place earlier, he used Yingshui to greatly develop Tuntian here, and when Liu Feng sent troops to the west, it became another important grain production area to the front line after Xuchang.
It was getting late, and another group of people who had returned from Tongguan arrived.
Among the people, there is also a special person, this person is Liu Feng.
He did not enter the city, but entered a military camp south of Yecheng in a low-key manner, and when he walked into the big tent, the people who had been waiting for him immediately became excited.
Zhang Wei, Yan Yan, Chen Dao, Ma Zhong, and many generals who should have stayed in the Tongguan camp gathered here.
Liu Feng looked around at the generals, and there was a kind of excitement in his eyes.
He nodded slightly to the generals, walked into the upper seat, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Since all the armies have entered Nanyang and passed on my orders, they will set off lightly tonight, and the armies will go straight to Wuguan." β
