Chapter 554: If you want to break the enemy, all the troops move together
readx;
Wuguan is always crumbling, but it can't be broken, and the Cao army under the pass is also a little anxious. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Looking at the soldiers who kept losing time, Wei Yan found Sima Yi and asked: "Military division, our army has lost 50,000 soldiers in the strong attack for two days and two nights, and if it continues like this, the loss will be too great!" ”
"What's the hurry? Isn't it already decided? Sima Yi looked at Wuguan and said expressionlessly: "Mr. Wolong really lives up to his reputation, the strength of our army is already more than four times that of Liu Zhang's army, and he dares to divide his troops to resist, it's really not simple!" ”
"You mean that Zhuge Liang only used 50,000 people to block the attack of 100,000 people of our army?" Wei Yan frowned, he was quite unhappy in his heart, he hated the enemy more than him!
"What's so strange about that?" Sima Yi said: "Defending the city has an advantage, let alone a dangerous place like Wuguan? I have seen Pang Tong's ability, it is dangerous and strange, Zhuge Liang is matched with it, it must be extremely calm! The calm person is good at guarding, and relying on the favorable terrain, it is natural to get twice the result with half the effort! ”
"So we're going to keep consuming like this?" A cold light flashed in Wei Yan's eyes, and his heart was even more unhappy, and a cold murderous aura spread from him!
"If you want to achieve great things, you must first learn to be patient..."Looking at Wei Yan with an anxious face, Sima Yi said lightly, Wei Yan may be a general under his command in the future, he doesn't want Wei Yan to be an impulsive reckless man!
"I understand, thank you for the teachings of the military teacher!" Wei Yan was terrified in his heart, and immediately suppressed the impatience and recklessness in his heart!
Sima Yi nodded with satisfaction, and continued to observe the movements on the Wuguan, and after a long time, he asked, "Wen Chang, have the scouts been sent out?" ”
"It was sent out a long time ago!" Wei Yan frowned and said, "It's just very strange, within a radius of twenty miles, there is no trace of Pang Tong's army, not even a horseshoe print!" ”
"No, twenty miles is not enough, advance to fifty!" Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "With the speed of cavalry, fifty miles is only a matter of about an hour, you also have to pay attention to the reinforcements wearing our army's uniform, the person who attacked Sun Quan at the beginning was wearing the Jiangdong Army's uniform!" ”
"Speaking of sneak attacks, do you think Pang Tong will sneak attack Jiangling and Xiangyang?" Wei Yan's heart turned sharply, and he suddenly thought of a possibility!
"No!" Sima Yi said: "Xiangyang and Jiangling are both fortified cities, and there are 100,000 soldiers, which are not something that Pang Tong can conquer. Besides, Pang Tong's goal is our army, what does it have to do with our army to conquer Jiangling and Xiangyang? ”
"What the military advisor said is very true, and he is confused!" Wei Yan nodded, he forgot that Cao Ying had already given Jingbei to Sun Quan, and this incident was also one of the reasons why he fell to Sima Yi. As a military general, you should fight for every inch of land, and in Wei Yan's view, losing your territory without a fight is a cowardly act.
"It's nice that you can think of it!" Sima Yi said with a smile: "To deal with enemies like Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, you have to think more, and you have to think about them with their thinking!" You say, if you are Pang Tong, under what circumstances will you appear? ”
"This..."Wei Yan hesitated for a moment and said: "If I am Pang Tong, I will naturally sneak attack when the Wuguan is about to be breached, then it should be the time when our army's defense is the weakest!" ”
"You're right!" Sima Yi said: "Now that Wuguan has been crumbling, but there is no sign of breaking through, Pang Tong will naturally not appear, so we have to wait patiently." We have to compare the surname with Pang Tong, whoever can endure more will be the final winner! ”
"I'll be able to endure it!" Wei Yan clenched his hands into fists, his eyes glowed red, and he had obviously made up his mind!
"There is no need to be so painful, with the current situation, we will definitely win!" Sima Yi patted Wei Yan on the shoulder and said, "Didn't you find out?" The loss of our soldiers is almost two to one with Liu Zhang's army, that is to say, if we lose 200,000 soldiers, we can break through the Wuguan! After breaking through Wuguan, we will be able to cut off the connection between Chang'an and Luoyang and approach Tongguan! Liu Zhangjun also had to give up Chang'an and Tiger Prison. When the time comes, the prime minister will be subordinate to the division and Liang, and besiege Chang'an, and Liu Zhang will lose all the land of the four states! ”
"If that's the case, even if it's worth losing 500,000 horses!" Wei Yan nodded, the pawn didn't have any status in his heart. Some people die in order to achieve their goals, in the eyes of many generals, it doesn't matter, because one will make ten thousand bones wither!
"Order, continue the siege!" Seeing that Wei Yan really guarded against arrogance and rashness, Sima Yi was also very satisfied, although Wei Yan might not develop according to his ideas, but as long as there was hope of success, he didn't mind taking a gamble. After all, with the loyalty of everyone under Cao Ying's command, it is difficult to be bought by him!
Cao Jun's attack became more and more sharp, and after two days and two nights of resistance, the soldiers of Wuguan were a little unable to support it! Although Zhuge Liang let the soldiers take turns to rest every day, every time there is one less soldier on the guard, the pressure on the other soldiers will be greater. By the evening of the third day, Huang Zhong's Tiger Ben Army had already lost three layers, and Guan Yu's Qinglongwei had also lost two percent!
"Strategist, if it continues like this, our army will not be able to hold it!" Seeing that the consumption of his soldiers was getting bigger and bigger, Guan Yu couldn't calm down anymore, he already cherished his soldiers, how could he be willing to let the soldiers die with the enemy?
"That's true!" Huang Zhong's losses were greater than Guan Yu's, and even Huang Xu was injured, and he also said with some hesitation: "Military advisor, if you have no choice, Wuguan will be broken sooner or later, please think twice!" ”
"This..."Zhuge Liang looked at the two generals in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since this is the case, let's carry out the plan!" Yun Chang, you immediately go to the pass and make arrangements, and bury the burning things in the way I specified, so as not to let the enemy break through our army's defenses when the pass is broken! ”
"Yes!" Guan Yu immediately stepped down to make arrangements, even if he was not satisfied with Zhuge Liang, he did not dare to miss Liu Zhang's big event.
"Hansheng!" Zhuge Liang shouted again: "You go and carry the rejection horse I prepared to the city, remember not to let Cao Jun's people see it!" ”
"Yes!" Huang Zhong took the order and left, and Zhuge Liang immediately turned his head to Zhang He.
"Jun Yi, you will lead the halberd warriors to hide behind the rejection of the horse, if the cavalry of the Cao army rushes to the city, it will be up to you!" Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang He with a smile, but Zhang He's heart was shocked!
"The military advisor can rest assured that he will live up to his expectations!" Zhang He saluted and also went down to the pass to transfer troops, and brought the halberd warriors to the city!
"Tao Ying, Mi Fang, Pan Feng!" Pang Tong instructed: "You will hide behind the halberd warriors later, if there is a Cao army rushing to the city, you don't need to be polite to them, use the repeater to entertain them well!" ”
"Don't worry, we will definitely make them look good!" Tao Ying and the three of them immediately bowed down to receive the order, they were valued for the first time, and they were very excited!
"Strategist, Tao Ying and Mi Fang are going to command the crossbowmen, and I will stay here to protect you!" Pan Feng held the big axe in his hand, his face full of fierceness. In fact, he was only sixteen or seventeen years old when he fought Lu Bu, and his strength did not grow, and it was a little difficult to even wield a big axe. Now, he is in his thirties, which can be described as the prime of life, and that big axe makes Guan Yu a little breathtaking! At the very least, Guan Ping is no longer his opponent!
"This..."Zhuge Liang hesitated, he knew that Pan Feng's martial arts were good, but he didn't want to leave Pan Feng behind, he wanted to use every strength to guard the pass!
"Strategist, your safety cannot be ignored, and you also need someone to help you give orders, just let Pan Feng stay!" Tao Ying and Mi Fang knew Pan Feng's ability, and they also knew Zhuge Liang's important surname, so they naturally supported Pan Feng to stay and protect Zhuge Liang. What's more, if Pan Feng is not here, there will be no one to compete with them!
"Okay!" Zhuge Liang really needs someone to protect him, otherwise a few soldiers can rush up at random, and he will be able to kill him, even if he is not so weak!
After closing and getting ready, Zhuge Liang ordered Pan Feng to light a lead with a torch. Just listening to the bang, a huge spark appeared in the sky, blooming into a beautiful pattern in an instant. It is still a semi-finished gunpowder made by Zuo Ci, which was made into fireworks by Liu Zhang, which was made by Liu Zhang in order to please his wife, but it was used as a signal flare by Zhuge Liang!
"What's that?" Seeing huge flowers blooming in the sky, Wei Yan immediately asked Sima Yi a question.
"I don't know, maybe it's a signal!" Sima Yi frowned; "Wen Chang, order all the troops to be on alert, beware of Pang Tong's sneak attack!"
"The last general obeys!" Hearing that Pang Tong was finally going to appear, Wei Yan's eyes flashed with excitement, and he hurriedly went down to give the order. At the same time, Zhang Fei, who was in ambush outside Wuguan, also saw a huge spark in the air.
"Strategist, do you think that's a signal?" Zhang Fei shook the half-asleep Pang Tong awake, Pang Tong opened his eyes and immediately smiled!
"Zhuge Liang, there are times when you can't support it?" Pang Tong jumped up from the ground with a carp, his movements were so smooth, he ignored everyone's stunned eyes, and said with a smile: "Zhuge Liang asked us to attack Cao Jun, which of you takes the lead?" ”
"I'm coming!" Zhang Fei strode forward and did not give in, but Zhang Liao stopped him!
"Yide, you are too unrighteous, you eat alone every time, this time you must let your brother try it!" Zhang Liao smiled and patted Zhang Fei's breastplate and said, "Ten jars of fine wine, let me lead the troops first!" ”
"This..."After hesitating for a long time between fine wine and leading troops to kill the enemy, Zhang Fei shook his head and said; No, less than twenty altars, no need to talk! ”
"One price, fifteen altars!" Zhang Liao also bargained with a smile on his face, but he didn't know what Sima Yi would feel if he knew!
"Deal!" Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Let me state first, Sima Yi can't give it to you." Of course, if you can kill him first, I have nothing to say! ”
"No problem!" Zhang Liao turned to Pang Tongdao; "Strategist, please give the order!"
"Good!" Pang Tong stood up and pointed directly at everyone with a bald feather fan: "The generals listened to the order and ordered Zhang Liao to lead the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou to rush straight to Sima Yi's army, and ordered Zhang Fei to lead the overlord cavalry to attack the camp of the Cao army with me!" Liu Xian, let all the overlord knights light the torches, and after entering the Cao army camp, set fire everywhere, be sure to let Sima Yi lead the troops back to help..."
