Chapter 1401 - Just to escape

Leading the army to the outside of Liu Bei's military camp, he heard a sound of Yaoqin coming from the barracks from a distance, Sima Yi raised his arm and stopped the march of the army.

Listening to the sound of the piano coming from the barracks, he raised his hand and pointed forward, and said to a personal soldier behind him: "Let's go and see what Liu Bei is doing!" ”

"No!" The soldiers responded with their fists clenched, clamped their legs on the horse's belly, and rode the horse to the direction of the Jingzhou army camp.

It didn't take long, the soldiers who went to investigate the situation turned back, and when they came to Sima Yi's approach, they hugged their fists and said to him: "Qiqi master book, there are only hundreds of soldiers in Liu Bei's military camp, Liu Bei and Na Zhuge Liang are sitting outside the barracks and stroking Yaoqin, and the two of them are talking and laughing while stroking the qin, as if they don't know that our army has arrived!" ”

Knowing from the pro-soldiers that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were sitting outside the barracks and were stroking Yaoqin, Sima Yi's brows were tightly locked, and he still didn't believe it.

"Let's go see!" Looking ahead, he gently pinched his legs towards the horse's belly, greeted Yu Ban beside him, and rode his horse towards Liu Bei's military camp.

"Let's go!" Sima Yi rode his horse to Liu Bei's military camp, and Yu Ban also made a move and gave the order to advance to the army.

Receiving the order, the soldiers of the Han army quickened the pace of their march and advanced towards Liu Bei's military camp.

The footsteps of the Han army were neat, and with each step they took, they would roll up patches of smoke and dust, and even the earth seemed to tremble under their feet.

Sitting at the entrance of the barracks, hearing the footsteps of the Han army in the distance, Liu Bei's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and even the fingers of the piano were slightly trembling.

Hearing a slight tremor from Liu Bei's piano sound, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said to him: "Uncle Huang's piano has a slight vibrato, then Sima Yi is not a stupid person, if there are too many vibratos, how can he not hear the clues?" ”

After being reminded by Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei suddenly sat up straighter, and when he stroked Yaoqin, the rhythm of the piano actually calmed down.

Leading the army towards Liu Bei's military camp, Sima Yi also heard the occasional tremor in the sound of the piano.

When he was almost sure that Liu Bei was panicking, the sound of the piano suddenly calmed down again, making people stand up, and he could faintly feel a trace of tranquility.

Frowning slightly, Sima Yi slowed down the march of the war horse, pursed his ears, and silently listened to the rhythm of the music coming from Liu Bei's military camp.

The soldiers of the Han army who followed him walked neatly, and the sound of their feet stepping on the ground actually covered up a lot of the rhythm of the qin.

Raising his arm, he motioned for the Han soldiers to stop.

When the soldiers stopped marching, Sima Yi still pricked up his ears and silently listened to the fluttering rhythm of the piano.

After listening for a while, the sound of the piano in front of me finally stopped for the time being.

When Sima Yi was about to order the army to move on, a slightly different rhythm sounded again.

The rhythm of the piano is a slightly light melody, and if there is a trill, it is easy to grasp.

At this time, the rhythm of the piano that floated into Sima Yi's ears was a somewhat depressed and low rhythm, which made people listen to it, and they would inevitably have an indescribable sense of depression in their hearts.

Standing in front of the army array, listening carefully to the sound of the piano wafting from Liu Bei's military camp, Sima Yi's brows became more and more wrinkled.

The rhythm of the piano is getting more and more gentle, and from the gentle rhythm, he can hear that Liu Bei's mood must be extremely calm at this time.

With this state of mind, Liu Bei's military camp is probably not only hundreds of soldiers and horses.

Especially the news that Tanma got earlier was that Liu Bei personally led the Jingzhou army of as many as 5,000, but now there are only a few hundred soldiers left in his military camp.

Along the way, the Han army intercepted and killed more than a dozen scouts sent by Liu Bei to investigate the situation, and if Liu Bei was not stupid, he must have thought that an army was advancing towards them.

Moreover, when they arrived at the boundary near Liu Bei's military camp, Sima Yi did not intercept and kill the scouts sent by Liu Bei, and their whereabouts, the Jingzhou army should have already mastered them.

But Liu Bei did not send troops to intercept him, but only a few hundred soldiers were left in the barracks.

Hundreds of people face tens of thousands of troops, once the two armies fight, what the result will be, you don't have to think about it, you know.

Such an unconventional method of warfare, in Sima Yi's view, is indeed worthy of doubt.

Furrowing his brow, he raised his hand and waved it back again.

Tens of thousands of Han troops slowly advanced towards Liu Bei's military camp with his beckoning movements.

Seeing Liu Bei's military camp getting closer and closer, Sima Yi's brows became more and more wrinkled.

From a distance, he saw that outside Liu Bei's military camp, there were two people sitting at the outside of the camp, one of them was leisurely stroking the yaoqin, and the other was sitting on the side, gently shaking the feather fan in his hand, as if he was very intoxicated to appreciate the rhythm of the qin.

Seeing this scene, Sima Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart fluttered a little.

The appearance of the Jingzhou army was too abnormal, if Liu Bei had lined up to meet the Han army when it arrived, Sima Yi would not hesitate to lead the army to fight.

But the Jingzhou army did not set up a formation to meet the battle, but Liu Bei sat outside the barracks with Zhuge Liang, as if he was caressing Yaoqin very leisurely, this kind of behavior really made Sima Yi feel weird.

Tightly frowning, staring at Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang who were sitting outside the barracks, Sima Yi ordered the soldiers behind him: "Pass the order, the whole army retreats!" ”

had already arrived outside Liu Bei's military camp, and seeing that Liu Bei could be captured after a while, Sima Yi suddenly ordered the whole army to retreat, which really made Yu Ban on the side very puzzled.

"Zhongda!" Turning his head to look at Sima Yi, Yu Ban whispered the question in his heart: "Liu Bei is just in front of him, why didn't our army come forward to fight?" ”

Asked by Yu Ban, Sima Yi smiled slightly, turned his head and said to him: "Liu Bei has always been timid, and often when he is on expedition, he will be behind the army, but this time he is calm and calm, and when my army is in the camp, he has the leisure to stroke Yaoqin, and the general feels a little weird?" ”

"What does Zhongda mean......" When Sima Yi said this, Yu Ban also tightened it tightly, and asked with some uncertainty: "Liu Bei secretly has ambush soldiers?" ”

"But there are ambush soldiers, I don't know!" Staring at Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei outside the barracks, Sima Yi frowned tightly and said: "I just feel that Liu Bei is doing this, he must have made some plans in secret, the enemy situation is unknown, and our army will attack rashly, maybe he will follow his way!" ”

nodded, and Yu Ban didn't say anything more.

This time, after all, Sima Yi was the master of controlling Xiahoudun.

As the commander of the three armies, Xiahoudun must be restrained by Sima Yi, and as a deputy general, Yu Banzi will not speak out to stop Sima Yi's decision.

Giving the order to retreat, Sima Yi turned around his horse and took the lead in running away from the Jingzhou military camp.

Ten thousand Han troops followed closely behind him, marching the way they had come.

Sitting outside the barracks, watching Sima Yi lead the army away, Liu Bei let out a long breath, and the heart hanging in his throat finally let go.

Although he breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Bei's movements on his hands did not stop, and he was still stroking Yaoqin.

When it comes to piano skills, his level is really not high.

Even Liu Wei, who doesn't know how to play the piano, has lived in this era for a long time, and occasionally strokes a song, which is much more superb than Liu Bei.

But at the moment, he was stroking Yaoqin, not to be elegant, but to make Sima Yi think that in his military camp, there were soldiers and generals who were difficult to match the Han army.

Seeing that Sima Yi led the army out of sight, Liu Bei was completely relieved and stopped his movements of stroking the qin.

"Uncle Huang!" As soon as Liu Bei's movements stopped, Zhuge Liang said to him: "Now you can lead the soldiers in the camp to leave here!" ”

"What do you mean, sir?" Zhuge Liang said that he could leave here, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Fei has no plan to break the enemy army?" ”

"The number of enemy troops is more than 10,000, and there are only 4,500 people under Mi Zhu and Mi Fang!" Shaking his head with a smile, Zhuge Liang said: "From the emperor's uncle's point of view, with the enemy's combat strength, can Mi Zhu and Mi Fang get benefits from them?" ”

"Then the gentleman wants the two of them to go and stop the enemy?" Zhuge Liang's words made Liu Bei taken aback, and he hurriedly asked: "In this way, wouldn't it be that the two of them want to go to death?" ”

Liu Bei's words were full of consternation, but Zhuge Liang's expression was indifferent, as if Mi Zhu and Mi Fang's life and death had nothing to do with him, and said: "The enemy army suddenly killed, if the emperor uncle leads the army to meet the battle, it will only be an hour for the enemy army to be broken!" We waited only to frighten the enemy to repel, and soon the enemy would wake up. At that time, if they turn around and catch up, the possibility of us escaping here will be very slim, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang lead the army to intercept and kill the enemy, and wait until the enemy pursues Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang has already gone far! ”

Zhuge Liang's strategy, although it is only able to hold Liu Bei's life.

Knowing that it was impossible to establish too many meritorious deeds in this expedition, Liu Bei no longer had much hope for fighting with the Han army.

Fleeing from the vicinity of Bowang and leaving this place as much as possible may be what Liu Bei is most eager for at this time.

After staring at Zhuge Liang for a while, Liu Bei finally nodded and said to him: "Our army came here to kill more Han soldiers and make meritorious contributions to my brothers. I don't want the enemy to be strong, and our army has a hard time, so I have to follow Mr.'s words! ”

With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Zhuge Liang nodded, didn't say anything more, just waved his hand at a personal soldier who was waiting on the side.

Seeing Zhuge Liang's gesture, the pro-soldier clasped his fists and bowed to Liu Bei and him before turning around and entering the barracks.

In just a moment, the hundreds of Jingzhou troops in the barracks were already fully equipped, surrounded by Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, and left the camp from the other side of the barracks.
