Five hundred and seventeen Meridian Valley Conspiracy

The 1,000 elites of the Military University used great speed to pass through the relatively flat Guanzhong Plain, and then spent a lot of time passing through the Shu Road, although a considerable number of prisoners of war were building the road, but only two-thirds of the road was completed so far, and one-third of the road was not completed.

When passing here, some people suggested that if the unfinished Shu Road passed, it would inevitably lead to construction delays, which would be unfavorable to Datang, so it would be better for us to take advantage of the present and enter Shu from the Meridian Valley, right?

As soon as this proposal was proposed, it was immediately seconded by many people, because a very brilliant chapter in the Three Kingdoms of the Su Clan was the chapter where Wei Yan proposed the Meridian Valley conspiracy, and many people had a strong curiosity about the Meridian Valley, and they didn't know why Zhuge Liang would veto Wei Yan's proposal.

Suning sent Wang Hui to reconnoiter intelligence, but no trace of the wingman was found, so the Meridian Valley was safe at present, and the wingman did not know that the Tang army had come, so marching from the Meridian Valley could also achieve a surprise effect, so Niu Jinda and Suning combined, after replenishing enough supplies, took the guide and entered the Meridian Valley.

While marching, someone asked Suning to ask Suning to tell them why this Meridian Valley plot was not adopted by Zhuge Liang, Suning wrote in the book They felt that it was not complete, so they hoped that Suning would talk about it again, and finally Niu Jinda was also interested, and said with a smile: "Since everyone wants to hear it, you can talk about it, let's all listen to it, your understanding of the Three Kingdoms is the first recognized by us, you can talk about it!" ā€

Suning thought about it, this is not bad. With the difficulty of walking in Meridian Valley, it is also a very good idea to talk about it, so Professor Su cleared his throat and began to talk about his own understanding.

"This is the road where Wei Yan mentioned to Zhuge Liang to attack Wei, Meridian Valley, when Zhuge Liang went on his first Northern Expedition, Wei Yan mentioned yƬ to Zhuge Liang. He led 5,000 men and horses to attack Chang'an from the Meridian Valley. His reason was that from the Meridian Valley, he could directly reach Chang'an and Xianyang, and the commander of Chang'an appointed by Emperor Cao Rong of Wei Ming at that time was a son of anointing. Xiahou Mao. is indeed a child of anointing.

This Xiahou Nan's talent. It is indeed the weakest of the children of the Xiahou family in the same period, and there is nothing wrong with the children of the anointing Liang, Wei Yan thinks. Once his 5,000-strong army attacked Chang'an, Xiahou Nan would inevitably have no talent and courage to defend Chang'an, so that he could master Chang'an, and then defend Chang'an, and at the same time Zhuge Liang led 100,000 main forces out of Qishan, so that the west of Xianyang was decided in one fell swoop.

After the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, there was only one Yizhou in Shu, and more than half of Yangzhou and Jingzhou and Jiaozhou in Wu could be said to be the weakest, not to mention the Wei State that occupied the land of ten states, at that time Shu was full of only about 120,000 troops, and Wu was full of more than 300,000 troops, not to mention Wei, the regular army was not less than 500,000, just because of the need to defend the northern border and the southeast of Wu, it was never possible to invest more troops in the southwest battlefield.

Wei Yan's strategy can be said to be feasible, and the feasibility is not small, I personally think that if Zhuge Liang really adopted this strategy, then the probability of victory or defeat of the first Northern Expedition to Wei and Shu is also five or five, why do you say that, after the defeat of Liu Bei Yiling, the original 200,000 troops of Shu lost more than half, the defeat of Jingzhou Guan Yu's 30,000 Jingzhou army was destroyed, and the defeat of Yiling Liu Bei lost a total of 780,000 troops, plus the army losses of the Wuxi barbarians, the real army population loss was no less than 100,000.

At that time, Jingzhou and Yizhou could provide 200,000 troops for Shu Han, but Shu Han not only lost a large number of people in Jingzhou, but also lost part of Yizhou's army, so Zhuge Liang could control about 70,000 or 80,000 troops at that time, and Shu was deservedly the weakest, but ah, Zhuge Liang was really good at governing the country, and he was able to reorganize the Shu Han Central Army within five years, expanding it from 780,000 to about 120,000, which was the largest number of troops in Shu Han at that time.

Before Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan, Wei and Wu both despised Shu and did not think that Shu still had the ability to go on the Northern Expedition, even if Shu still had a Zhuge Liang, so Wei focused on the north and southeast, and the strength of the southwest front was very weak, and when Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan and won many battles, Wei and Wu were shocked to realize that they had always greatly despised Shu and Zhuge Liang.

And before that, if Wei Yan's Meridian Valley conspiracy can be implemented, as I said before, the ratio of victory and defeat will be in the number of five or five, that is to say, Shu has fifty percent of the certainty of taking Liangzhou and Yongzhou in one fell swoop, so that it is the real Three Kingdoms, Shu Han masters the west and southwest, Wu controls the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and Wei controls the Central Plains, which is called the Three Kingdoms, and before, it is better to say that Wei is pressing Wu and Shu to fight.

Indeed, Wei Yan is one of the few generals in the middle and late Shu Han period, and his talent is not under Guan Yu, so Liu Bei will rest assured that Hanzhong will be handed over to Wei Yan, and about mastering Jingzhou, Wei Yan is equivalent to the second Shu Han feudal official, Liu Bei is a person, his talent is not very high, but he can use people, can tolerate people, long-term failure experience makes him pay special attention to talents, and dare to appoint talents, Wei Yan is the beneficiary of his strategy.

But I have to say that the success of Shu Han, the defeat of Shu Han, the people who appreciate Wei Yan in the Shu Han regime are the three brothers of Liu Bei, and there was Pang Tong before the military advisor, Pang Tong also dared to use tricks, so he admired Wei Yan, but unfortunately, when he was not with Shu Han, Pang Tong died first, and Liu Bei's three brothers died one after another, and the power of appreciating Wei Yan in the Shu Han regime who dared to appoint Wei Yan was gone, and it was replaced by Zhuge Liang's cautious way of rule.

The majestic boldness, and the cautiousness of Shu Han after the defeat of Yiling, is inadequate, Zhuge Liang does not agree with the reason for the conspiracy of the Meridian Valley, that is, there is a small number of Shu Han troops and the harsh environment of the Meridian Valley, you see, this road is very difficult for us to walk now, not to mention the original Shu Han, the strong national strength of the Wei State was also destroyed in the process of entering Shu, not to mention the Shu Han who was still very weak at the beginning of the serious illness at that time.

Zhuge Liang is good at governing the country. But he is not good at using soldiers, let alone using tricks, and there is no force in Shu Han at that time that can contain Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang has all the power, so he is very dissatisfied with Wei Yan, an alternative who does not listen to him very much, and for Wei Yan, he is also a strategy to suppress it, Wei Yan's death. It's because Zhuge Liang doesn't believe in Wei Yan. thus used Yang Yi, the villain, to kill Wei Yan and destroyed the last hope of Shu.

Wei Yan is the last general of Shu State, after Wei Yan died. Shu Han really has no generals. can only rely on Jiang Wei and Wang Ping's group of people to continue to maintain. There is more than self-preservation, but lack of progress, and Wei Yan is the most promising figure in the forces that enter to defeat Wei. Compared with Jiang Wei and Wei Yan, the difference is not one or two points.

But ah, the cautious feelings of the government and the opposition of Shu State, so that Wei Yan's strategy was not adopted, Zhuge Liang felt sorry for the five thousand troops who were reluctant to send the five thousand troops to a dead end, in his opinion, this must not work, so the loss of five thousand troops in vain, Shu Han could not bear it, after all, now, Shu Han has no more than 200,000 troops, if Liu Bei is here, I am afraid that even if there are only 50,000 troops in hand, he will not hesitate to allocate one-fifth to Wei Yan, not like Zhuge Liang, one-twentieth is reluctant to give out.

If I were Zhuge Liang, I would give Wei Yan at least 10,000 troops to fight Chang'an, 5,000 people are too few, if you can't hold Chang'an, you will be counterattacked by the Wei army, and your previous achievements will be abandoned, Zhuge Liang has 100,000 troops, and to the west of Chang'an, the Wei army only has about 70,000 or 80,000 troops, that is to say, in Yongzhou and Liangzhou, the Shu Han army has an advantage, as long as Wei Yan successfully blocks the Wei army advancing westward for a period of time, Zhuge Liang will not be unable to defeat the Wei resistance army in Liangzhou and Yongzhou.

At that time, Zhuge Liang can let an army, about 30,000 people drive to Chang'an, at that time Shu Han still has a group of excellent generals, Wang Ping, Zhang Yi, Liao Hua, Zhao Yun, hold Chang'an, hold Hangu Pass, west of Chang'an, is the land of Shu Han, when the time comes, the whole army of Shu Han will go north and swallow Yongliang Erzhou.

Although Liangzhou is very barren, but the people are strong, suitable for raising horses, can form cavalry, combat effectiveness is very strong, Yongzhou has a relatively large population, can supplement the army, in fact, the power used by Wei against Shu Han is the power of Yongliang Erzhou, put Yongliang Erzhou into the bag, Shu Han's power can be doubled immediately.

But ah, it's a pity that Zhuge Liang didn't do that, in a sense, this is a pity, but history is like this, we won't make the mistakes that Zhuge Liang made, Zhuge Liang doesn't go to the Meridian Valley, we prefer to go to the Meridian Valley, Zhuge Liang can't block the news, we have to block the news, so that the wingmen don't know anything about our actions, but we have the actions of the wingmen in our hands, this battle, we will win, the wingmen will lose! ā€

Niu Jinda nodded again and again, and then laughed: "Okay! This is a good saying, the bureaucrats don't know how to fight, they only know plunder, and now they are actually marching to Chengdu without their own strength, which is looking for death! We will defeat its rear in one fell swoop, arrest all its family members, and order it to return to the army. Ladies and gentlemen, can you have faith? ā€

The men shouted, "Yes! ā€

Niu Jinda smiled: "Okay! In that case, everyone should be prepared! After leaving the Meridian Valley, it was time to prepare for battle, the soldiers were divided into two routes, the commander led 500 people to attack Lingzhou, and Vice Marshal Su led 500 people to attack Jiazhou, and then looked for an opportunity to make peace and completely destroy the wingmen!! ā€

"No!" This is the roar of the men of the military university.

In order not to delay the construction process of Shu Road, the army did not choose to take the Shu Road that has been repaired two-thirds, but chose the Meridian Valley, which has a very important historical significance, in this way, the time is more tight, and the difficulty has increased, the Meridian Valley, it is really not easy to walk, Suning feels that Zhuge Liang obviously understands how difficult the Meridian Valley is, so he will stop Wei Yan's conspiracy.

However, the more intriguing, the more dangerous, the more dangerous, the richer the rewards, which one is more important, five thousand people and Yongliang two states, which one is more important? Zhuge Liang did not intend to be able to win in one fell swoop from the beginning, but planned to encroach on Wei and defeat Wei step by step, but the difference in strength between Shu Han and Wei was too large, if there was no adventure, but a head-on confrontation, then he could only end up with 30,000 horses against Sima Yi's 150,000 army.

The gap in national strength sometimes needs to be made up for by miracles, Wei Yan is that miracle, but Zhuge Liang doesn't believe in miracles, he only believes in himself, so he missed an excellent opportunity, although Wei Yan did not give up the request to lead the army to raid from the Meridian Valley in the following several Northern Expeditions, but Wei has changed the governor of Chang'an, whether it is Zhang He or Cao Zhen or Sima Yi, it is by no means comparable to Xiahou Mao's waste.

The last good opportunity was lost, and without a miracle, it was impossible for Shu to defeat Wei step by step.

Datang is different, Datang has huge strength, and the righteous imperial soldiers will inevitably win when attacking the wingmen, but how to exchange the minimum price for the greatest result is what Suning has to do, the students of the Military University are very valuable wealth, and they cannot be wasted, the purpose of their own battle is to train them, let them see blood, let them kill, after this, this army, this group of people, will undergo a miraculous transformation, Zhuge Liang can't catch the fighter, I will definitely be able to catch it!

Suning swore secretly. (To be continued......)
