The 60th Battle of Eastern Wu and Southern Han Dynasty Drove Cao Wei to the Central Plains Unification (13)
The ten generals listened to Guo Jia's instructions, and happily took the order and waved their troops out. On the other side, Sima Yi saw that the ten generals were out of the horse, and he complained bitterly in his heart, and secretly sighed that Nan Ye's soldiers were strong and brave. Sima Yi has heard of these ten people, and it is rumored that they are all fierce generals who ride a thousand. Sima Yi felt that these ten people could break out of the battle even if they didn't bring a single soldier, not to mention the soldiers and horses.
Sima Yi was not sure that all of Nan Ye's soldiers and horses would be left, so he instructed the soldiers in the formation: "You don't have to stop Nan Ye's generals, just capture his soldiers." ”
Sun Quan frowned when he heard this: "If that's the case, wouldn't it be a matter of letting ten generals go out of battle?" ”
Sima Yi explained: "Nan Ye can break my formation, and I can also break his formation. Whoever has the most men will win. I deliberately let ten generals go out of the battle, but left their soldiers in the battle, and later our army only needs to send out more than ten men and horses to win. ”
Sun Quan was overjoyed and said: "Sima Dudu is really high-minded. ”
Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and the others didn't know what Sima Yi's idea was, so they led the mage to guard and rushed straight into the battle. The people didn't feel any wonderful about this formation outside the formation, but as soon as they entered the formation, they found that Cao Bing was stacked on top of each other, with flags waving, and the front and back were covered by flags, although they knew that there were only 1,000 people in the formation, but at first glance it looked like a large array of 10,000 people.
If an ordinary person enters Sima Yi's mixed yuan array, they can be shocked just by the contrast between the front and back. However, Guo Jiadian's ten fierce generals don't take this formation in their eyes, even if there are really 10,000 people in the formation, these ten fierce generals dare to rush and kill.
According to what Guo Jia said, the ten generals danced swords and guns, and they didn't look at whether there were more or fewer people in front of them, but they just struggled forward. A group of Cao Jun got the order, and did not fight hard with the ten generals, and got out of the way in the formation, wanting to wait for the ten generals to pass the battle and then intercept the southern Han soldiers to die in the formation.
Sima Yi thought it well, but he still underestimated the mage's personal guard. Although these mages are soldiers, their martial arts can catch up with the generals in the army. The ten generals rushed forward to kill, and the mage's guards followed closely behind without any distance, and when Cao Bing let go of the ten generals and wanted to intercept them, he found that the mage's guards had already broken out of the formation with the ten generals.
Dian Wei and the others rushed out of the big array and looked back, only to see that there were many soldiers in their own family, and it seemed that they were not hindered in the formation, which made everyone very puzzled. Wei Yan laughed loudly: "Sima Yi's array is nothing more than that!" ”
Sima Yi didn't expect this result, and couldn't help but blush when he heard Wei Yan speak. But at this time, it was useless to argue, so he said to Guo Jia: "I will see you and set up the formation!" ”
Guo Jia recalled the ten generals, and ordered Gao Shun to lead the trapped camp out, and it was enough for thousands of people to set up a trapped camp. After arranging for a while, Guo Jia came to the front of the formation and asked, "Can you recognize my formation?" ”
Sima Yi looked at it and said, "Measuring this gossip array, how can you not know it?" ”
Guo Jia smiled when he heard this, his eight-door golden lock array was similar to the gossip array, but there was a mystery in it, obviously Sima Yi didn't know it. However, Guo Jia didn't say anything, but said lightly: "If you know it, you will know it, do you dare to beat me?" ”
Sima Yi was not to be outdone: "Now that you know it, how can you not dare to fight!" ”
Guo Jia smiled: "You just call." ”
Sima Yi returned to the main formation, called Cao Zhang, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen and the tiger and leopard cavalry and instructed: "Today, Guo Jia's array will open the eight gates according to rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, shock, and opening. The three of you can enter from the east gate, go to the southwest gate, and go out from the north gate halfway, this formation can be broken. Be careful! ”
The three generals Cao Zhang were in front, Cao Chun was in the center, and Cao Zhen was behind, each leading more than 30 horsemen, entering from Shengmen, and the two armies shouted to help each other. The three of them entered the military formation, only to see that the formation was like a city, and the conflict did not come out. The three of them hurriedly turned around and rushed to the southwest, but they were caught by the strong crossbows of the trapped camp, and the conflict could not be achieved.
The big array is overlapped, and there are portals, where are they divided into east, west, north and south? The three generals couldn't take care of each other, just collided with each other, but they saw that the clouds were gloomy and indifferent, and the misery was foggy. At the beginning of the shout, Cao Bing was tied up one by one and sent to the back of the formation.
As the three generals walked, they found that the number of people was decreasing, and in the end, only three people were trapped in the formation. Cao Zhang was moving forward when he saw that it was Zhao Yun who killed a general in the formation, Cao Zhang stepped forward to fight less than three times, and Zhao Yun pulled his horse away. Cao Zhang was just about to pursue, but Dian Wei rushed out of the ape arm behind him and captured Cao Zhang under the horse. Cao Chun and Cao Zhen were also captured one after another, and they were all the same means.
Nan Ye and Guo Jia were behind the battle, and they saw that the soldiers of the trapped camp tied the three generals of Cao Ying and the ninety-seven tiger and leopard knights under the tent. At this time, Sima Yi on the other side didn't know that the soldiers who had entered the battle had all been captured. Nan Ye asked Guo Jiadao: "These three generals are all Cao Pi's cronies, presumably they will not surrender, how does Feng Xiao plan to deal with them?" ”
Guo Jia smiled: "It's not surprising that I caught them. Since it is a fighting array, when the three of them are released to see Sima Yi, teach him to read the military book again, and re-observe the battle strategy, it is not too late to decide the male and female at that time. ”
Nan Ye felt that it was not easy to capture the three generals, and it would be a pity if he let them go, so he hesitated. Jia Xu said with a smile on the side: "Feng Xiao's desire to release the three generals is not to underestimate the enemy, but to provoke Sima Yiye." The lives of the three were spared, but they left behind weapons and horses and humiliated them, so that Sima Yijun's heart was in turmoil. ”
After listening to Jia Xu's explanation, Nan Ye knew Guo Jia's intentions, so he ordered someone to take off Cao Yingsan's clothes, paint his face with ink, and walk out of the battle. As for the Haw Par Knights, they were all left as prisoners.
Sima Yi saw the three generals walking away with their helmets and armor, and now they ran out naked, he was furious at that time, and looked back at everyone: "So frustrated and sharp, what face do you have to return to my lord!" After that, he drew his sword in his hand and commanded the three armies, rushed to the death, personally led more than 100 generals, and urged the superintendent to rush and kill.
Sun Quan saw that Sima Yi's army was moving together, so he naturally did not fall behind, and also ordered the two generals Lu Su and Lu Meng to lead the troops to rush and kill. Guo Jia provoked Sima Yi to come out of the battle, so he naturally had a way to deal with it. Gao Shun was ordered to lead the trapping camp as the core, and Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Wei Yan, and Zhang He each led an army to arrange the front and back, and the enemy was to hold the armies of Wu and Wei.
The three armies had just met, and suddenly the drums and horns behind the Wei army rang out in unison, and the shouts were shocking, and a Biao army came from the southwest, which was led by Zhao Yun and Yang Xiong. The 30,000 rattan armor sabers were invulnerable, and as soon as they entered the battle, they killed Cao Bing in chaos.
Sima Yi hurriedly divided the rear army to block it, and urged the army to fight forward. Suddenly, the Wu army was in chaos, and it turned out that Huang Zhong and Huang Xu led the Wudang Flying Army to kill quietly. Sima Yi was shocked and hurriedly retreated.
When Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhang Baiqi, Ma Yunluo, and Hua Bei saw that Cao Bing was retreating, they led a group of personal guards to cover up the killing, and the Wu and Wei armies were defeated. Sima Yi led the three armies to the north to attack to the death, and Cao's army was wounded six or seven. Sima Yi retreated to the camp and held out.
Nan Ye saw that Sima Yi could not defend the camp, so he ordered his soldiers to cut down wood and quarry, and prepared to attack the camp with a thunderbolt car. With the latest version of the Thunderbolt to help the battle, Nan Ye is not even worried about the danger of Jiancheng, let alone the camp.
Sun Quan and Sima Yi also knew that the thunderbolt was powerful, and when they heard that Nan Ye was preparing to quarry and attack the camp, Sun Quan was in a hurry, and hurriedly discussed countermeasures with Sima Yi: "Nan Ye wants to use the thunderbolt to attack the camp, if the quarrying is ready, we will wait for the danger, and we should use the plan to break it first, I don't know if Sima Dudu has a clever plan to meet the enemy?" ”
Sima Yi also knew that the fighting soldiers, fighting generals, and fighting formations were not Nanye's opponents, so he said: "It is difficult for Nanye to come from afar to transport grain, so we can secretly order the sergeants under our command to lead troops to patrol the road and rob them of grain and grass." Then he pretended to be a grain transporter, and the car was filled with dry firewood and thatch, and poured it with sulfur and fire oil, teaching people to falsely report that Yecheng had transported grain. If Nanye has no food, he will definitely come to rob it. When people get there, set fire to the car, and ambush the camp outside, you can win. ”
Sun Quan said happily: "This plan is wonderful! So he ordered Han Dang to go to the road to patrol the sentry and rob the grain, and Sima Yi sent Cao Zhang to pretend to be a grain transporter, and Cao Chun and Cao Zhen led the army to prepare to rob the camp.
Nan Ye learned in the army that Han Dang's men and horses were haunted by the grain road, and when he heard that Cao's army had arrived, he summoned all the generals to discuss: "The art of war is cloudy: the wise general eats the enemy, eats the enemy for one minute, and when I am twenty bells, one stone on the pole, and twenty stones for me." Now that the Wu soldiers have cut off my food supply, why don't we rob the Wei army's food for our own use? ”
Lu Xun smiled: "This Sima Yi's plan is also." I have been good at using fire all my life, and I thought that the loader on the grain cart must be something thatched and ignited. Sima Yi wants to use this trick to lure us to rob the grain, if we go, we will come to rob my village, and the national teacher can do what he wants. ”
Nan Ye couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said that the three stinkers were Zhuge Liang, and although Sima Yi was very intelligent, there were Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Lu Xun as military advisors, and Sima Yi's strategy was nothing more than that.
Lu Xun summoned Gao Shun and instructed: "You lead a thousand trapped camps to the place where Cao Bing stores grain, and you can't enter the camp, but only set fire to the upper wind." If you burn the chariot battle, Cao's soldiers will come to besiege, and you lead the troops to hide in the mountains and don't fight. ”
Gao Shun was ordered to prepare, and Lu Xun sent four generals, Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Huang Zhong, and Huang Xu, each to lead 20,000 soldiers to ambush outside the camp, just waiting for Sima Yi's soldiers to attack inside and outside.
After the four generals were ordered to go, Lu Xun instructed Zhao Yun and Yang Xiong: "Cao's barracks are set up on Sitong Road. If the fire breaks out in the West Mountain tonight, Cao Bing will come and rob our camp. The two of you are lying in wait for him to leave the village, and the two of you can rob him. ”
After Zhao Yun and Yang Xiong received the order, Lu Xun ordered Wei Yan and Zhang He to rob Wu Zhai. The rest of the generals such as Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhang Ren, and Zhang Baiqi all followed Nan Ye to ambush the two armies halfway and intercept and kill Cao's soldiers.
The people were assigned, and they were commanded to go. Cao Jun looked at the movement of soldiers and horses in Nanye's camp from afar, thinking that he was coming to rob grain, so he hurriedly reported to Sima Yi to be on guard.
After hearing the report, Sima Yi instructed Cao Chun and Cao Zhen: "Look at the fire in Shanxi tonight, the soldiers and horses of the Southern Han Dynasty will come to the rescue." Going out at this time, acting like this......"
The second general was calculated, and people erected building carts in the camp to stand guard and watch the fire. Sima Yi saw Sun Quan again and said: "Tonight, Nanye robbed the grain, but Your Majesty saw the fire, he could lead the troops to attack Cao Ziwen inside and outside, and break the enemy soldiers." Sun Quan nodded in agreement.
However, it was said that Cao Zhang put the military horses in the place where the grain was stored in Xishan, and only waited for the Nanye soldiers to arrive. On the second watch of the night, Gao Shun led the camp to come, everyone was titled, the horse was exhausted, and the road went to the West Mountain, and saw many chariot battles, overlapping and overlapping, gathering into a camp, and the chariot battles were falsely planted with flags. At this time, the southwest wind rose, and Gao Shun ordered the soldiers to set fire to the south of the camp.
Cao Zhang only ambushed a few dead soldiers in the grain and grass camp, and made an appointment to set fire to the camp as soon as the soldiers and horses of the Southern Han Dynasty arrived. At this time, seeing the fire in the camp, Cao Zhang thought that the soldiers and horses had been ambushed, so he led the troops to the camp to cover up.
