Chapter 736, see if you divide the troops?
A Kong Ming lantern suddenly rose under the night sky, not only Chen Shu was alarmed, but the scouts sent by Meng Shu also sent the news to Meng Shu's side as soon as possible, Meng Shu hurriedly walked out of the tent, came to the outside of the tent, looked up at the sky, even if it was far away, he could still see the eye-catching Kong Ming lantern, "Haha... I know, pass on my order, the fourth watch cooks, the fifth watch opens, and be sure to rush to Tongguan City before dawn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Jia Xu looked up at the Kong Ming lantern floating in the air for a long time, although he didn't know that this was a Kong Ming lantern for the time being, but he at least guessed what this thing was for, obviously, it was to pass the code to Meng Shu on the other side.
Unexpectedly, across the huge Tongguan, Zhuge Liang could actually 'contact' Meng Huo as he wanted, and he was afraid that only he could think of this method, even if it was Jia Xu, he couldn't think of such a strange thing.
Jia Xu also appreciated Zhuge Liang's talent more and more, how did he know that this was just a trivial matter, because in addition, Zhuge Liang's side, there were wooden oxen and flowing horses and Zhuge crossbows, and even, even steamed buns, were invented by Zhuge Liang.
Let Meng Shu's army lead the troops to attack Tongguan to distract Chen Jiao's attention, while Zhuge Liang took advantage of the situation to storm Shacheng, and of course, he also had to divide his troops to guard against Chen Qiao's sneak attack.
Turning the day, the red sun has not yet risen, just poking out of the clouds, outside the city is already a war drum like thunder, the sound of killing shook the sky, the east and west sides of Tongguan City, all ready, especially Meng Huo, before dawn, he led the troops to Tongguan City early.
Even, Meng Huo not only replenished his troops, but also brought a lot of siege equipment, the ladder rush car nest car has everything, the strength is not less than 50,000 people, obviously, during this time, Meng Huo mobilized a lot of reinforcements from Liangzhou.
Meng got 50,000 troops on his side, Zhuge Liang had 70,000 troops on his side, adding up to 120,000 people, while Chen Jiao's side had 30,000 troops in Tongguan, 10,000 in Shacheng, less than 30,000 in Luoyang, and 20,000 in Hujiaoguan.
Although the strength of the army is far inferior to Zhuge Liang, Chen Qi occupies a dangerous pass, and a Tongguan city alone is worth at least 50,000 Xichuan soldiers.
"Kill, kill..."The sound of Xichuan soldiers killing shook the sky, but the speed of the army was not fast, a team of neat and orderly, slow and firm and unstoppable approaching Shacheng, the earth-shattering shouting and killing, shook the universe, an amazing sense of oppression also continued to sweep towards Shacheng, Zhuge Liang sat in the rear army, riding on a four-wheeled vehicle, hand-cranked goose feather fan, his face was light, calm, his gaze, occasionally turned to look at the side of Tongguan, he made such a big move, see how Chen Qi responded?
In Zhuge Liang's view, Chen Qi will inevitably send troops to support Shacheng, so that Meng Shu's offensive will inevitably be more ferocious, and the pressure on Tongguan to defend the city will also increase greatly. If Chen Qi does not send troops, then, soon, Zhuge Liang will be able to take down the small Sand City.
No matter what choice Chen Qi makes, it is beneficial and harmless to Zhuge Liang, the reason why the army is slow to advance and the momentum is very great, Zhuge Liang is to deter the defenders of Shacheng, and at the same time, it is also to remind Chen Qi to make him panic, but he has to make a choice.
Before, only Meng Shu had a large army, and Chen Qi didn't need to be distracted at all, but now, there were enemy soldiers on both sides, and Chen Qi had to be distracted, and Meng Shu, the pressure would inevitably be reduced a lot, and he could also devote all his energy to the siege battle.
Zhuge Liang has an army of 70,000, whether it is Chen Qi or Zhang Liao, he is not afraid of anyone coming, and this is what Zhuge Liang wants to see, because, as long as the righteous army supports, it will inevitably be impossible to fight with the Xichuan soldiers in the field, so that the power of the city occupied by Chen Qi will be greatly weakened.
In the battle outside the city, the Xichuan soldiers obviously have an advantage, even if a Bo is killed, the Xichuan soldiers can have the last laugh, and Chen Xiao, can he afford it?
If Chen Qi doesn't send troops, then he can only watch Zhuge Liang take Shacheng and kill all the soldiers and generals in Shacheng!
Zhuge Liang's move can be said to be similar to Chen Qi's attack on Xiangyang before, and he hoped that the other party would come out of the city to fight with him.
"Hmph... A group of gutless rats, if they dare to go out of the city, I, Ma Mengqi, will definitely kill you without leaving a piece of armor. ”
Seeing that Chen Qi still did not move to send troops, Ma Chao laughed disdainfully.
Ma Chao laughed unscrupulously, and the soldiers and generals around him also laughed and ridiculed.
"A group of guys who don't have eggs will only hide in the city as shrinking turtles, and they don't dare to come out to fight our Xichuan soldiers."
"That is, General Ma Chao is invincible, if Chen Zhuo really dares to go out of the city, General Ma Chao will definitely make him regret it."
"The general is mighty, the general is mighty!"
These generals looked at Ma Chao with admiration, for them, Ma Chao was a god-like existence, straddling horses and holding guns, invincible, it was simply a symbol of invincibility.
Ma Chao was complacent, and became more and more contemptuous of Chen Qi, his eyes fell on Jia Xu's face, Ma Chao's eyes burst out of two cold cold lights, and in his mind, a scene of the tragic death of his father and brother suddenly flashed.
However, he found that Jia Xu was still as disdainful as before, looking at him coldly, it seemed that in front of Jia Xu, he was still a reckless man at the mercy and play!
"Strategist, it seems that Chen Qi has no intention of sending troops at all, is it possible that he wants to take advantage of our siege to suddenly send troops to raid?"
Ma Yan's question, Zhuge Liang just smiled slightly, his eyes fell on the tower of Shacheng, Zhuge Liang was full of confidence, it was just a small sand city, could it be rare to live 70,000 Xichuan soldiers?
No matter when Chen Qi sends troops, this is not a problem, as long as he sends troops, it is best, if he does not send troops, it doesn't matter.
Zhuge Liang has to pull out the nail in Shacheng first.
"Prepare to defend the city!"
Chen Qi ignored the ridicule and scolding of Xichuan soldiers, turned around resolutely, and violently pulled out the Yitian Sword from his waist, raised the long sword with raised arms, and immediately led people to meet the Meng Shu army that began to attack, as for Zhuge Liang's side, it seemed that Chen Qi was ignored as air.
Under the city wall on the west side, Meng Huo's army approached like a tide, and the ladders attacking the city were approaching the city tower like a fast-moving dragon.
Relying on the danger of Tongguan Jiancheng, although Meng Shu has 50,000 troops, it is not worth mentioning in Chen Qi's eyes, this time, I am sure to let him come as much as he wants, and how many will die!
However, Zhou Yi, who was in Tongguan City, was busy with people, what was he busy with? Thunderbolt!
Shacheng is less than three hundred steps away from Tongguan, and the two cities seem to be each other's horns and can support each other, but in fact, it was Jia Xu who deliberately set up a trap!
Since he is a poisoner, naturally, he is not playing a conspiracy, but a conspiracy! (To be continued.) )
