1451 Death is not saved
"Haha, it's really a pleasure!" Xu Huang laughed, and after meeting with Sima Yi, he asked respectfully: "Sima Dudu, Lu Xun didn't save him when he saw death, and he didn't come to help Han Dang, do we want to chase Lu Xun's main force?" ”
"No, General Zhang He's troops are insufficient, and he will definitely not be able to resist it, and when I arrive, I am afraid that the victory and defeat will be divided." Sima Yi calmly analyzed.
"Then, how can we support General Zhang He?" Xu Huang was stunned, Sima Yi wouldn't also learn from Lu Xun, let's not save him when he dies.
"Lu Xun will definitely have soldiers and horses, forgive Han Dang will not come back, march with me and attack Lu Xun's rear." Sima Yi said.
"In this case, isn't General Zhang He in danger?" Xu Huang and Zhang He were friends, so they couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"It's okay, if General Zhang He's battle is unfavorable, he can retreat to Heqi first." Sima Yi said confidently.
The question has come back again, or is it equivalent to being in a hurry? If Lu Xun learned of Sima Yi's plan and simply abandoned the base camp, wouldn't the plan be in vain? Although Xu Huang had doubts, he believed that Sima Yi was resourceful and racing against time was the right way, so Sima Yi's main army turned around and headed towards the southwest and headed towards Lu Xun's camp, where Lu Xun's 50,000 soldiers and horses were still left, and the leader of the troops was Zhu Ran.
Han Dang crossed the water, which was slower than the dry road, and Sima Yi was preparing to take advantage of this time difference to copy Lu Xun's back road.
It must be said that this style of play has a great chance of winning, and it shows that it is resourceful and bold, but the risk is also huge, unless it is a qiēshun lì, there can be no accidents.
Master duels, wits and courage, no matter which side wins, it will not be easy, but there will be some price. The strength of the two sides is equal, and the strong and weak teams are divided into each other, and each other is in a state of containment and attack, and only those who have the first opportunity can win.
Lu Xun's army approached Shushan, and Zhang He had already laid out a formation according to the terrain and was ready for battle. When he found out that Zhang He only had 50,000 horses, Lu Xun showed a trace of pride on his face, and Sima Yi's main force went to intercept Han Dang, but he ignored the rear and had an opportunity.
Lu Xun believed that as long as a strong attack was carried out here, first, Sima Yi's forces could be weakened, and then Sima Yi could be forced to return to the army to rescue, and then Han Dang could turn the disadvantage into an advantage, and he could still launch a two-sided attack on Sima Yi.
Zhang He got the information and waited for reinforcements to arrive, but he couldn't hear anything back, and he was inevitably dissatisfied with Sima Yi's approach, which was tantamount to putting him in danger and ignoring him.
After Lu Xun's army arrived, Xu Sheng wanted to ask for orders to call the battle, he wanted to fight with Zhang He and fight it out. Lu Xun did not agree, the war was urgent, and there was no time for the general to fight, so he had to quickly defeat Zhang He, and immediately commanded the army to rush towards Zhang He's fortifications.
Wu Jun is like an ant colony, throwing stones while releasing arrows, at the foot of Shu Mountain, arrows and stones are dense like rain, and the shouting of killing is earth-shattering.
Zhang He bravely crowned the three armies, led the army to launch the most stubborn resistance, and killed an unknown number of Wu troops, but under Lu Xun's powerful offensive, the soldiers also suffered a lot of casualties and were beaten back.
Nearly half of the soldiers and horses were lost, and the rest of the people were weakened, and they were in a position of defeat and escape. In the end, Zhang He still abandoned Shushan, led the army along the familiar road, returned to the city of Heqi, closed the city gate, and even hung the exemption card.
Losing 20,000 soldiers and horses, the Shushan defense line was breached, which greatly boosted Lu Xun's spirits, Heqi City is not far away, once it can occupy Heqi, it is equivalent to completely seizing the opportunity of this battle, and victory is in sight.
To take Heqi before Sima Yi moved to the rescue, just when Lu Xun was full of confidence and wanted to cross Shushan, he suddenly heard a report from Tanmalai, Sima Yi's main army did not come at all, and after defeating Han Dang, he went towards the southwest of Chaohu Lake.
The sweat on Lu Xun's head immediately fell, and he finally realized that Sima Yi was unpredictable, and said in a loud voice: "It's not good, I've been tricked, return quickly!" ”
"The Metropolitan Governor, if you take Heshu directly at this time, you may have a chance of winning." Zhuge Jin was unusual, but advocated continuing to attack.
"The rear is in an emergency, if we are accused by Sima Yi, our previous efforts will be in vain, and even if we take Hexi, we will be in isolation." Lu Xun shook his head helplessly, and Zhuge Jin couldn't help shaking his head, you must know that Sima Yi was also in this state at this time.
The 80,000-strong army hurriedly retreated, not daring to stop for a moment, the soldiers were about to break their legs, and when Lu Xun returned to the place where he was encamped, he found that the camp had long been gone.
Zhu Ran didn't expect Sima Yi to attack suddenly, and the offensive was extremely fierce, Zhu Ran was smart, knowing that he couldn't hold on at all, so he immediately abandoned the camp and fled, on the way he was chased and killed by Sima Yi's army 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the remaining 30,000 soldiers and horses retreated to Shiting.
"Governor, can you return to the army?" Xu Huang, who had won one after another, asked, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and admired Sima Yi from the bottom of his heart.
"Hehe, naturally I want to go back, but I have to take the waterway!" Sima Yi pointed to the northeast and said with a smile.
"The Metropolitan Governor is high!" Xu Huang was happy again, knowing that Sima Yi still wanted to intercept Han Dang, who had already been defeated.
Sure enough, Sima Yi's army once again encountered Han Dang's army that was returning, and Han Dang, the general with only 20,000 soldiers and horses, left, where did he dare to face it head-on, only a crazy rout.
Sima Yi led the army, and it was another chase and killing, and he killed 10,000 soldiers and horses of Han Dang, and Han Dang led 10,000 people dismally and retreated to Wuwei City to defend it.
Sima Yi didn't want to attack the city, and led the army to capture the warships in Jiangdong on Chaohu Lake, and then returned all the way back to Hexi.
Lu Xun lost the battalion, so he had to lead the army back to Shiting, and after some statistics, he actually lost 80,000 horses in this battle, but he didn't even see Sima Yi's shadow, and Sima Yi's side, at best, lost 30,000 horses.
Lu Xun was depressed and didn't speak for several days, it was precisely because he despised his opponent that he made such a big mistake. However, Zhuge Jin repeatedly comforted Lu Xun that the defeat in this battle was not the fault of the Metropolitan Governor, so he should shake his spirit and fight again in the future.
Sima Yi walked around a long circle and returned to Heqi City, Zhang He came over depressedly, stood aside with a cold face and did not say a word, Xu Huang kept glancing at him, so he was unwilling to bow down and plead guilty: "The last general failed to hold Shushan, and please punish the majority of the capital." ”
Sima Yi hurriedly picked up Zhang He, but instead bowed his hand deeply: "The general has made great contributions in this battle, how can he be punished?" If it weren't for the general to lead away Lu Xun's army, there would not have been such a great victory, please accept Zhong Da's worship! ”
This kind of situation was completely unexpected, Zhang He was immediately moved to tears, and hurriedly said that he was willing to be driven by the governor of the capital to go to the soup and fire, and never give up.
Lu Xun was quiet for a while, and Sima Yi solemnly gave Cao Pi a note, and while reporting the great victory in this battle, he praised Zhang He for his ability to take care of the whole army, regardless of personal safety, and he was really a general's demeanor and a pillar of the country.
