The common source of the Wei brothers' art of war is family tradition, that is, it is taught by Lao Tzu Wei Yanyan and deeds, and the textbook is "Wu Zi's Art of War". Wei Yan himself doesn't like to read very much, and his knowledge of books other than the art of war is limited, and he himself is not a good teacher, he is more used to doing it, usually does not explain, how much you can comprehend depends on your understanding.

He is like Guo Daxia, he is a master, but he is not a good teacher.

And Wei Feng is obviously not a good student who can draw inferences from one another, so most of his art of war is still on the basis of training, and the soldiers are not bad, but the idea of using soldiers is relatively simple.

Wei Ba two lives as a person, in the previous life had the experience of industrial production, but more often than not, it was to go with the flow, not prominent, this life suddenly woke up, painfully determined, three times a day to save my body, in the ideological realm than the previous life more than a hand. The biggest change is that he has become more proactive, no longer taking care of what happens, but seizing every opportunity to learn.

Once a person's initiative is discovered, it can exert an energy that amazes everyone. When he was in Nanzheng, Wei Ba studied the family heirloom "Wu Zi's Art of War" attentively, in addition to the lack of practical experience at that time, in the text, he was even more proficient than his father Wei Yan, and later joined the army as a prime minister, and asked Zhuge Liang to coach the art of war, and discussed with Ma Yan. Worshipping Zhao Yun as a teacher is his biggest gain, Zhao Yun is not only experienced, but also an excellent teacher, and he attracts rich nutrition from Zhao Yun.

It is precisely because once he led the troops alone, he created a breathtaking brilliance.

Of course, because of his efforts beyond ordinary people. No one doubts that his success has the role of memories of his past life, and they all think that he is a model of the prodigal son who turned back and studied hard.

Among the three adult brothers of the Wei family, Wei Ba's physical fitness may be the worst, but his ability to use soldiers is undoubtedly the strongest, and at this point, even their father Wei Yan can only say a word at this moment.

Stronger than Wei Yan, Wei Ba is better at guiding.

When he was in Fangling for the first time, he successfully guided Zhao Guang and Mi Wei to conduct tactical deductions; When he was in Fangling for the second time, young people like Guan Xing and Zhang Shao gathered around him; in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou. He is also an excellent lecturer. can explain the art of war in an easy-to-understand manner, and even those barbarians who can't read words can listen to it and nod their heads.

Now, Wei Feng and Fu Xing have become the objects of his guidance.

As Wei Ba himself said, this time he went on the Northern Expedition. He had no intention of making meritorious service at all. He's done enough. It's just one step away from Daddy. Make meritorious service again. I'm afraid that not only my brother Wei Feng's eyes are red, but even my father will feel faceless. It's not always good to run all the way, sometimes you have to slow down. Build a solid foundation. The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it, he understands this truth.

Not making meritorious service does not mean inaction, so he pushed Zhao Tong to the front line, he brought Chen Zhi to his side, he walked with his brother Wei Feng and good brother Fu Xing, and he didn't play his own banner, just wanted to support Wei Feng and Fu Xing to take the position. If all goes well, his gains this time will be no less than his personal meritorious service.

Wei Ba spread out the map and guided Wei Feng and Fu Xing to start their thinking and find a way to conquer Shunyang and Nanxiang. With the living map of Dunwu on the side, after analyzing various objective factors such as geographical conditions, the strength of the troops of the two sides, and the advantages and disadvantages of combat strength, Wei Feng sorted out his ideas step by step, and slowly changed the word outwitting from a guiding ideology to a specific tactical plan.

At present, Wuqiu Jian is stationed in Shunyang, with 3,000 soldiers, leaning on the mountain and camping, and the defense is very tight, and if you want to attack them with 10,000 people, the losses will be amazing. Once the losses were too large, even if they captured Shunyang, they would not be able to launch another attack on Nanxiang. And the greater possibility is that they lost their generals, but they could not capture Shunyang.

Nanxiang was guarded by Cao Yu, the king of Yan, and his strength was about the same as that of Wuqiujian. Nanxiang County is on the south bank of Danshui, backed by Danya Mountain, which is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and even more difficult than Shunyang, because this area is the eastern foot of the Qinling Mountains, the terrain is high in the west, and there are more mountains and mountains along the Danshui to the west.

Probably because of this reason, it is not necessary to keep Shunyang thriftily, and let Cao Yu guard the safer Nanxiang.

There is nothing wrong with Qiu Jian's arrangement, if he must say that there is, it is that he was negligent. Unlike the Wei army, which was better at fighting on the plains, the Shu Han army was better at mountain warfare, and Wei Feng was also more familiar with the terrain here than he was. Therefore, in Wuqiu Jian's opinion, Nanxiang is safer, but not necessarily for Wei Feng.

Once Wei Feng gave up the unrealistic idea of attacking, although Nanxiang had not yet opened the door, a crack in the door had already been exposed.

Wei Ba immediately arranged the combat deployment, he and Fu Xing faced the enemy head-on, prepared for a strong attack, and attracted the attention of Wu Qiu Jian, while Wei Feng took his headquarters to attack Nanxiang with light equipment. In order to enhance his combat effectiveness, Wei Ba asked Ding Feng and Dun Wu to lead a thousand personal guard battalions to help.

Wei Feng then set off.

Fu Xing then approached Shunyang City, and drove until it was out of range of the thunderbolt and crossbow before stopping, less than three hundred steps away from Shunyang City, and both sides could see each other's flags and even human figures.

Wu Qiu Jian was very cautious, he had arranged scouts for thirty miles in the vicinity, so as soon as Wei Ba and them entered the reconnaissance range, he would know. There was a team of about five or six thousand people leaving Danshui, and he knew it well. Therefore, he was not worried about the division of the Shu Han army, but was a little contemptuous.

The strength of the Shu Han army was already insufficient, but now it has been divided into two, and the threat is even smaller. Whether it is Shunyang or Nanxiang, even if it is surrounded by 10,000 people, it may not be able to play the whole job, not to mention that only half of it is left.

Wuqiu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that although this Wei Feng is the same as Wei Ba, he is also Wei Yan's son, but he is too far behind Wei Ba. No wonder Wei Ba became a general of Zhennan, he was still just a general of Dangkou, and it is said that it was because Zhuge Liang overpromoted him in order to suppress Wei Ba. With his current thinking of using troops, this did not wronged him at all.

Although Wu Qiu Jian relaxed a little, he did not take it lightly, he sent someone to send the news to Cao Yu: the Shu Han army has arrived, half of them have been divided, it is possible to go to Nanxiang, please King Yan be prepared, don't be taken advantage of by the enemy.

There was nothing wrong with Qiu Jian's prudence, and soon he felt the pressure.

The pressure comes from two sources.

After the division of troops, although only half of the Shu Han army remained, the offensive should not be underestimated. Large and small warships braved the rain of arrows of the Wei army and forced them all the way to the city wall. The armor of the building boat opened one window after another, and sharp arrows and stone bullets flew out of the windows and flew towards the city wall, causing the Wei soldiers on the city wall to complain.

Even as an enemy, Wu Qiu Jian was envious of the Shu Han sailor's boat. It is already surprising that there is armor, and the soldiers of Shu Han are under the armor, all commanded by the soldiers in the watchtower, and adjust the range and direction, and they can also hit so accurately, which is really admirable. Could it be that the two battles between the Xiangyang Naval Division and the Hanzhong Naval Division were completely annihilated, and the two sides were not on the same level at all.

The two building ships and more than ten medium-sized warships were on par with the more than 2,000 archers on the city wall, and their lethality was even surpassed. What surprised Wu Qiu Jian even more was that the thunderbolt cars of the Shu Han army were fast and accurate, and they could adjust the direction at any time, in just one day, half of the dozens of thunderbolts he rushed to make were destroyed, and the even ballistas that he regarded as treasures also suffered a lot of losses, and the soldiers who operated the ballista suffered heavy losses.

In contrast, the losses of the Shu Han Naval Division were very limited, only two medium-sized warships were directly sunk by the thunderbolts, and the others were only damaged to varying degrees, and they were not sunk, as long as they were repaired, they could fight again.

As soon as the battle began, the gap between the two sides in armament was fully revealed.

It's just real pressure, and there's invisible pressure.

After sending back the news of the division of the Shu Han army, the news of the scouts arranged by Wuqiu Jian outside the city to report back dropped sharply. Soon, he knew the reason, and the Shu Han army sent an extraordinary elite to hunt down the Wei army scouts all over the mountains. These people were familiar with the terrain, they crossed mountains and mountains as if they were walking on flat ground, and they were highly skilled in martial arts, ruthless, and very proficient in fighting in the mountains, and the Wei scouts were not their opponents at all, and suffered heavy casualties. What's more, some of the scouts were chased with no way to escape and surrendered directly.

The scouts of the Wei army consisted of two types of people. One is the state army scouts brought by Wuqiujian, these people are mainly soldiers in the Nanyang area, their personal ability has nothing to say, but they are not familiar with the geography of Nanxiang, and they are not suitable for this mountainous terrain. The other group is mainly Nanxiang locals, who are familiar with geography and adapt to the terrain, but their loyalty is worrying. This is a common problem of the people at the junction, maybe as long as you climb a mountain or cross a river, they will become enemies, who will give you your life?

In order to complete the task, Wu Qiu Jian used these two types of scouts together, learning from each other's strengths. Of course, it is impossible for them to be close to each other, on the contrary, there are many differences between them, Nanyang feels that all the locals are like traitors, and the locals think that Nanyang people are self-righteous stupid, they can't even walk well, and they like to call the shots. Under the forcible suppression of military orders, they cooperated fairly smoothly, but once there was greater external pressure, the suppressive effect of military orders was seriously weakened, and these two types of people were separated like water and oil.

Wu Qiu Jian suddenly felt blind to himself. He didn't even know whether the Shu Han army that had been assigned out had gone to Nanxiang, or if they were lurking around him, waiting for him to reveal his flaws.

Wu Qiu Jian felt a great deal of pressure, and he had to put away his contempt, re-examine his opponent, and show a stronger will to face this battle that was much more difficult than he had imagined. He is like a newcomer who walks on the dueling arena for the first time, looking forward to a happy victory, but when he fights, he finds that the opponent is not as bad as he thinks, and he is not as strong as he imagined, and he can't help but be a little hurried for a while......
