Chapter 486: The rebels feint to attack Chengdu

Deng Ding smiled and said softly: "If there is no internal cooperation and a forced siege of the city, even if General Wang and General Kui's soldiers and horses arrive together, it will be difficult to break through the fortified city of Chengdu." ”

"Oh, so to speak, the general wants to cooperate with Neiying and capture Chengdu by surprise, but is Neiying really so reliable? In case Neiying is discovered, our army arrives in Chengdu alone, so why don't we face the army under Zhou Fu alone. Xiao Xiao said worriedly.

Deng Ding smiled disdainfully, and said: "Zhou Fu's subordinates are only 10,000 Jingzhou troops, and the temporarily recruited recruits and the old army in Shuzhong are not reliable at all, with the strength of our army's 20,000 horses, even if you face Zhou Fu's army alone, the general will not be afraid." ”

"It is bound to be dangerous to send troops alone, please think twice about the general!" The Colonel frowned and persuaded.

Deng Ding waved his hand and said: "The general has made up his mind, so don't say it anymore, go and give the order immediately, and the army will march to Chengdu in three days." ”

"Yes, General." The little colonel had no choice but to obey the order.

After the colonel left, Deng Ding immediately picked up a brush and wrote to Kui Wen and Wang Run, informing them of the news of their early march and strongly urging them to send troops immediately and march into Chengdu as soon as possible.

After writing the letter, Deng Ding sent his cronies to Wenshan and Hanjia counties and handed it over to Kui Wen and Wang Run.

Three days later, Deng Ding gathered 20,000 horses and horses to march in the direction of Chengdu, and at the same time, Wang Run of Hanjia County and Kui Wen of Wenshan County also received Deng Ding's handwritten letters, and immediately mobilized soldiers and horses to prepare for the expedition. to reinforce the Deng Ding Corps.

Soon, the news of Deng Ding's army marching into Chengdu reached the ears of Zhou Fu, the assassin of Yizhou, who learned that the rebels had been killed, Zhou Fu did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered the army in the city to prepare to hold on.

His strategy was simple, that is, to use the strong walls of Chengdu to drain the rebels' spirits, so as to win the initiative for himself.

Zhou Fu's fanfare of mobilizing troops and horses is equivalent to telling the people in the city that the rebels have been killed, as the king of the inner swearing. Naturally, I also learned the news.

When I first learned the news. Wang Wei was taken aback, because he had already discussed with Deng Ding and others the time to march into Chengdu, and the time had obviously not yet arrived. But Deng Ding set up his troops in advance. This made him slightly annoyed. At the same time, Deng Ding's impatience also disrupted his original deployment.

In order to confirm the reliability of this information, Wang Oath specially dispatched his henchmen. went to the Assassin's Mansion to inquire about the news, and after getting the confirmed news, Wang Oath paced back and forth in the mansion.

Now that the situation has changed, he can't start an incident in the city at the time originally agreed, and the time for the incident must be advanced, and he must cooperate well with Deng Ding and other legions, too early and too late will lead to the failure of the uprising.

In order to find out the exact time when Deng Ding's army arrived in Chengdu, Wang Wei sent his henchmen to leave Chengdu disguised as woodcutters and go to Jianwei County to investigate the situation in order to formulate a more reliable plan for the uprising.

Soon, the henchmen sent by Wang Oath met Deng Ding's army fifty miles outside the city, and went to Deng Ding's Chinese army tent to discuss the specific details of the uprising with Deng Ding.

In the exchange with Wang Wei's confidants, Deng Ding learned that most of the 5,000 recruits recruited by Zhou Fu were composed of internal responses, and he couldn't help but be very excited.

In this way, there are 5,000 friendly troops in Chengdu, and these 5,000 recruits are like a steel knife, inserted in Zhou Fu's heart, and can take Zhou Fu's life at any time.

At this time, Wang Run and Kui Wen had already led the army to Chengdu, and after Deng Ding learned of this news, he decided to endure it for a few days, and wait for a few days later, when the three armies arrived in Chengdu together, and then let Neiying start an incident.

In this way, there is enough strength to completely defeat the 10,000 Jingzhou troops under Deng Yue, so as to occupy Chengdu more calmly.

After thinking about it again, Deng Ding decided that a few days later, his main army and Wang Run's 10,000 army would join forces to jointly feint the south gate of Chengdu, and Kui Wen's 10,000 army would feint to attack the west gate of Chengdu, so as to attract Zhou Fu's energy to the west gate and the south gate.

Then, let the inner should in the city rise up at the most inconspicuous north gate, and seize the control of the north gate, and Deng Ding himself will personally lead five thousand elites, from the north gate of Chengdu into the city, and the inner should be combined with the people and horses to attack the west gate and the south gate, so as to join with the main army outside the city, completely defeat the Jingzhou army under the command of Zhou Fu, and then capture Chengdu, and immediately elect Fan Ben as the emperor, and finally, you can control the entire territory of Yizhou step by step.

Deng Ding completely told Wang Oath's henchmen of his thoughts, and asked him to return to the city immediately to prepare, and must start an incident at the north gate when the army outside the city is attacking the city, and completely control the north gate, so that the elite men and horses under his command can enter the city, so as to cooperate inside and outside, and win the entire battle.

After hearing this, Wang Oath was greatly satisfied, and decided to follow Deng Ding's idea, and in a few days, he ordered all the inner city to rise up at the north gate, and cooperate with the army outside the city to capture Chengdu.

In the direction of Fucheng, the army of Hua'an is actively preparing for war, and Chen Ting, father and son, who were ordered to expand the troops and horses, have also successfully recruited 2,000 recruits and began intense training on the outskirts of Fucheng.

According to the news from the direction of Nanzhengcheng, Pu Tie, who was ordered to build an iron plow, also built a large number of iron plows in an orderly manner according to the predetermined plan, and many of the good iron plows have been used in the fields of Hanzhong, and the newly built literature museum and medical hall have also entered the formal construction stage, and the huge statue of Huangfu Mi is being carved.

A qiē is being carried out in an orderly manner, but the direction of Yizhou has come to Deng Ding and other old generals in Shuzhong official rebellion news, Deng Ding's 20,000 army has approached Chengdu, Kui Wen and Wang Run's two armies are also rapidly reinforcing the army, the rebels are moving so quickly, greatly beyond Hua'an's prior expectations, so that Hua'an's heart can't help but be a little vigilant.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Hua'an told Zhang Yu and Xie Siming about the latest situation in Yizhou, and carefully discussed it with the two, and the three of them decided that the main army would still stand still after several hours of consultation, but send an elite small army to quietly enter Yizhou as the vanguard of the army, and be responsible for exploring the situation in the direction of Chengdu.

This small army is naturally not a flying army, because this army does not currently belong to the establishment of the regular army of the Jin army, it is regarded as Hua'an's personal soldiers, and all the soldiers are people in Shu, familiar with the geographical environment of Yizhou, and sent them to dress up as hunters and quietly enter Shuzhong in batches, which is not easy to find.

Hua An told Zhuge Xiong of his plan, and Zhuge Xiong accepted the order without hesitation, and immediately returned to the camp to prepare, then took off his armor, put on Orion's clothes, divided into several small detachments, and quietly infiltrated the territory of Yizhou from different directions.

A few days later, Deng Ding, Kui Wen, Wang Run's three-way army all arrived in Chengdu, Deng Ding and Wang Run's two-way army, a total of 30,000 horses, stationed outside the south gate of Chengdu, ready to take the south gate as the main direction of attack, Kui Wen's 10,000 army was stationed in the direction of Chengdu's west gate, so as to contain the Jin army defending the city.

Soon after the rebels arrived in Chengdu, they launched a feint attack on the city, with overwhelming bow and arrow shooting, and a large number of rebel soldiers shouting and attacking, making the Jin army defending the city feel that this was a real siege, not a feint.

The battle lasted from morning to evening, and the soldiers on both sides paid some casualties, but overall the casualties were not large, the rebels suffered fewer than 1,000 casualties, and the Jin army defending the city suffered fewer casualties.

After dark, the rebels stopped attacking the city, and the Jin army defending the city began to step up their deployment to meet the rebels' next attack.

In Deng Ding's camp outside the south gate, Deng Ding handed over all the 15,000 main forces under his command to Wang Run's command, while he himself personally led 5,000 elites to leave the south gate, preparing to go around a big circle and go to the direction of the north gate, so that he could cooperate with Neiying to seize the north gate and then occupy the entire Chengdu.

In the city of Chengdu, Yizhou Assassin Shi Zhou Fu deployed half of his troops, 5,000 Jingzhou Army and 5,000 Shuzhong Old Army in the direction of Chengdu's south gate to deal with the main force of the rebels.

3,000 Jingzhou troops were deployed in the direction of the west gate, 500 Jingzhou troops were deployed at the east gate and north gate respectively, and the remaining 1,000 Jingzhou troops and 5,000 recruits were used as backup forces, ready to reinforce all directions at any time.

The battle outside the city has been fought for a day, and the five thousand recruits in the city are sharpening their swords, ready to rush out of the camp and kill in the direction of the north gate.

In the middle of the night, the 5,000 elites led by Deng Ding had arrived at the north gate of Chengdu and released more than a dozen Kong Ming lanterns into the sky.

This is the signal that Deng Ding and Chengdu should agree on, as long as more than a dozen Kong Ming lanterns appear in the direction of the north gate, it means that the army under his command has arrived at the north gate and can start an incident.

Seeing this, they immediately began to prepare weapons, and assembled in the barracks, preparing to kill the north gate, and joining the rebels outside the city.

The recruits suddenly left the camp tent and quickly assembled in the camp in full armor, which made the 1,000 Jingzhou troops in the camp suddenly feel that the situation was a little bad, and hurriedly assembled in case of accidents.

"In the middle of the night, what are you trying to do?" A Jingzhou military cadet captain went to the location where the recruits were assembled and asked loudly.

"Soldiers, kill him." Several of the recruits' temporary officers shouted.

"Whoosh...... dozens of arrows whistled in, turning the Jingzhou military captain into a hedgehog.

"The recruits rebelled, the recruits rebelled." The Jingzhou army in the camp was shocked, shouting and gathering formation, ready to resist. (To be continued......)
