The tall city wall of Wuguan is as silent as in the past, but it has a little more ominous atmosphere.

As the most important Xiongguan of Wuguan Road, as the key between Nanyang and Guanzhong, the importance of Wuguan is undoubted, when Wei Ba decided to give up Wuguan and shrink his forces to guard Guanzhong, I don't know how many people expressed doubts, until now, there are some rumors from time to time to his ears.

However, no one expected that the initial abandonment would create a God-given opportunity for today's counteroffensive.

After Wei Ba gave up the Xiongguan of Wuguan, Deng Zhi has been guarding Shangluo. Shangluo became the front line, and Wuguan lost its role as an important town and could only be used as a rear base. During the war, Sima Yi was stationed here, and now Sima Yi is fighting against Li Yan in Fancheng, and the defense of Wuguan is surprisingly empty.

Because no one expected that the enemy would kill from behind, after Shunyang and Nanxiang were broken by Wei Ba, Cao Rui urgently sent people to support Wuguan, but was blocked by Wei Feng and others in the area of Xixian County, and even Wuguan Road could not enter.

That's what it's called crooked.

There is a principle in the art of war: no help, no defense. The city without reinforcements could not be defended, not to mention that there were not many defenders in Wuguan City at all, even in the face of more than 10,000 people from Wei Ba, they had no confidence.

Because of this, many people expressed their incomprehension of Wei Babing's refusal to attack under the Wuguan City.

At this moment, Wei Ba and Wei Wu stood side by side on the small hillside east of Wuguan City, looking at Wuguan City in the distance, which was bleak in the cold wind. Wei Wu frowned, glancing at Wei Ba from time to time, wanting to ask but not daring to ask. He has not been with Wei Ba for a long time, but he has been beaten a lot of times. When I think about it, I was even more nervous than being by my father's side. Sometimes, he even suspected that the person in front of him was not his cowardly brother.

"If you have anything to say, just say it if you want to, hold it in your heart, and don't you be afraid of holding back your fart?" Wei Ba glanced at Wei Wu and couldn't help but smile.

Wei Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, we don't attack Wuguan?" If we call the eldest brother and Zhong Jian together, we will have a chance to capture Wuguan. In my opinion, there are only about 1,000 people in the city at most. And morale is low. Without reinforcements, we will certainly not be able to stop our attack. ”

"Well, you're very thoughtful." Wei Ba bowed slightly in satisfaction. Purely tactically speaking, Wei Wu was not wrong at all. He does have a good chance of capturing Wuguan. But. Strategically. Whether or not to seize Wuguan is of little significance to him, and leaving this credit to Ma Jian can be exchanged for greater benefits. Even if you want to capture the martial arts. He will not be the main force, except to give the credit to Ma Yan, his forces are too precious to be wasted on siege.

It was rare to be praised by Wei Ba, and Wei Wu was so happy that he scratched his ears and cheeks. Wei Ba often praises others, but rarely praises him, and sometimes even criticizes him very seriously.

"Zilie, have you read "The Thirteen Chapters of Sun Tzu"?"

"I've read it, I've read it several times."

"What is the first part of the Thirteen Chapters of Sun Tzu?"

""Count the first."

"Then what is "Ji No. 1" talking about?"

Wei Wu was stunned for a moment, smacked out what Wei Ba meant, and couldn't help but shrug his shoulders a little stupidly: "What are those things in the court again?" ”

Wei Ba smiled bitterly. It's not that Wei Wu doesn't have that brain, it's just that he has been by his father's side for a long time, and his temperament is the most similar to his father, and he is very concerned about the war, but he has no interest in the affairs of the court, and he doesn't want to think about it. However, the more powerful the generals who are not able to scheming, the more they can fight, the more they will die. They died not at the hands of the enemy, but at the hands of their own people.

The historical father Wei Yan is like this, and he has also left a reputation through the ages and has become a typical anti-bone boy.

"Zi Lie, "Thirteen Chapters of Sun Tzu", "Ji No. 1" is ranked at the beginning, it is conceivable, this is the most important one, how can you sweep it away? Think about it, what was Sun Tzu's first sentence, 'Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be ignored.' If you are satisfied with a fighting general, then you don't need to look at Sun Tzu's Art of War, familiarize yourself with the formation diagram, practice martial arts, and mingle with your soldiers, and you will be able to charge into battle and kill heartily. But if you want to become a general commanding thousands of troops, you must understand the court, and only by understanding the rules of the court, and using such rules, can you gather the liliang of a country, not just the liliang of a family......"

Wei Wu looked at Wei Ba in surprise, it was rare for Wei Ba to give such a bitter explanation, his heart warmed, he nodded, and listened patiently. After listening to Wei Ba's explanation, he let out a long breath, as if he had just experienced a tragic battle, and he was so tired that he just wanted to lie down and rest.

"I'm too tired, my brain is tired, and my heart is tired." Wei Wu looked at Wei Ba sympathetically: "Brother, I know now that it's not easy for you." No wonder the prime minister ages so fast, it turns out that they are all tired of calculating people. ”

Wei Ba couldn't help laughing, and raised his hand to Wei Wu: "Get out!" Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs. ”

"Nope." Wei Wu said solemnly: "What I said is all true. ”

Wei Ba frowned and didn't say anything more. He knew that what Wei Wu said was all true, Zhuge Liang's health was not good, and the situation seemed to come faster than in history, and before he had to fight against Sima Yi, he was so tired that he couldn't do it. In this, there are not only the reasons why the situation in the world has become more complicated after the capture of Guanzhong, but also part of his credit.

If it weren't for him, Shu Han's court would not be so turbulent.

In this regard, Wei Ba felt a trace of guilt in his heart, but once this trace of regret encountered his own survival difficulties, it was like remnant snow encountering the sun, which turned into a cloud of mist in an instant and disappeared without a trace.

Respecting you doesn't mean that I should be willing to be a fish and meat, and it doesn't mean that I should joke with my family's life.

Wei Ba was sighing, and Dunwu led Xie Guanglong over. Xie Guanglong strode up to Wei Ba and bowed: "General, Ma Changshi has successfully broken through Shang County, and he will be able to reach Wuguan tonight." ”

"That's very good." Wei Ba nodded politely: "I have prepared a camp and a reception banquet for Ma Changshi, just waiting for him to come." You've worked hard, go take a break. ”

"Thank you, General." Xie Guanglong turned around and left, just taking two steps. Han Zhenying followed Guan Feng over, and when she saw Xie Guanglong, she suddenly cheered: "Second senior brother, you are here." While laughing, he pounced, jumped up, threw himself into Xie Guanglong's arms, hugged Xie Guanglong's neck and laughed and jumped. Second Senior Brother, why did you come? ”

"Ahh Let go. Xie Guanglong patted Han Zhenying's back in embarrassment. smiled: "They are all relatives who have become relatives, and they still think they are children?" ”

"Hee-hee." Han Zhenying let go of Xie Guanglong's neck, but took his hand again, turned to Guan Feng and said, "Madam." I'll take my brother to go shopping. ”

"Go, go, go." Guan Feng waved his hand. He said with a smile. Han Jinying was overjoyed. took Xie Guanglong's hand and walked towards the camp with a smoke. She ran very fast, so fast that even Xie Guanglong had to hurry up.

Wei Wu was dumbfounded. After a long time, he scolded: "Xie Guanglong, this dog's day, dare to lie to Lao Tzu, see if I don't clean him up." ”

Guan Feng glanced at Wei Ba and said to Wei Wu: "What is it to lie to you, they have deceived a lot of people." If you don't believe me, ask your brother. ”

Wei Ba rolled his eyes and laughed twice: "This is not a lie, it can only be said that it is not light." However, there is no need now, since Ma Tan is out of the division, it is necessary to make a clear position with the prime minister. Ah Wu, you have to find a way to transmit this news back to Longyou, so that everyone around the prime minister knows. ”

Wei Wu shrugged his shoulders and muttered a few words.

"Sister, Ma Tan will arrive tonight, we will prepare a sumptuous reception banquet for him, whether the Nanyang war can continue this time depends on whether Ma Tan is willing to work hard. I'm going to have to get him right. ”

"Got it." Guan Feng said with a smile: "If this little thing can't be done, I'll go back to Linyuan and change Yuanrong." ”

……

Guan Feng didn't lie, she was indeed very well prepared, not only rectifying a sumptuous meal, but also preparing a variety of literary and artistic activities. With the cooperation of the drum music, the barbarian girls of the Divine Dog Battalion danced a warm and unrestrained dance, sometimes hot as fire, sometimes gentle as watery eyes, hooking celebrities like Ma Jian are a little agitated, and they can't help it.

When the wine was drunk, Ma Jian easily withdrew the lingering eyes on the belly of the barbarian girls, looked at Wei Ba, raised his wine glass, and said with a smile: "General Zhennan......"

"Alas~~" Wei Ba also raised his glass and interrupted Ma Yan's words: "Young Changjun, if you call me that again, I'm too disappointed." It's the same as when I joined the army in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

"hahaha......" Ma Tan hahadaxiao: "You are different now, just weak crown, you are already a heavy general, with tens of thousands of male soldiers, how dare I be so presumptuous." I am your father's long history, but this time I came to listen to your generals' orders, how dare you mess up, spread it, and you will be impeached. ”

"I didn't expect Ma Changshi to be a person who is afraid of words, so I misunderstood Ma Changshi." Wei Ba also put away his smile, got up from the table, and made a big gift in accordance with the rules of the banquet: "Changshi, please drink this cup full, dare to be Changshishou." ”

Ma Tan was stunned for a moment, and smiled even more happily. He leaned over and pressed his hand on Wei Ba's shoulder: "Okay, okay, Ziyu, we are still the same as before, you don't want to be a gentleman, if you can afford me and call me Brother Young Chang, I will be satisfied." ”

"That's a faux pas." Wei Ba said with some embarrassment.

"It's not rude, you and I are brothers, and there are some things to say." Ma Tan coughed, Wei Ba understood, waved his hand, and the barbarian girls and musicians rushed out, even Guan Feng and Wei Wu went out, except for the two of them in the big tent, only Deng Zhi and Fa Miao remained. Ma Yan put away his smile: "Ziyu, I want to ask you a truthful word, you Weishenme is unwilling to go all out, do you have to give up this opportunity to me and Bo Miao?" ”

Wei Ba pondered for a moment, and when he raised his head again, there was some helplessness in his eyes. He looked at Ma Yan, and then at Deng Zhi, who had not spoken, but stared at him intently: "Don't hide it from General Deng and Ma Changshi, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, and I am now the pig who is afraid of being strong, and I have been targeted by many people, so I have to pull the two to slander." We are all Jingxiang people, and I won't say anything about what it means to us to take Nanyang. What I want to say is that what path Jingxiang should choose in the future depends on whether it can conquer Nanyang this time. ”…… (To be continued......)
