Chapter 107: Zhuge Liang's Heart
The army marched at a constant speed to the southwest, and along the way, Wang Jun asked Zhao Zilong a lot of questions about the current situation.
This Northern Expedition was the first Northern Expedition carried out by the old man Zhuge after Liu Bei hung up, and the time roughly coincided with the first time of Qishan; Unlike in history, the main force was handed over to Guan Xing and Zhang Bao to lead, without the character of Ma Tan, and the direction of attack was not Li County in Tianshui County, but Wudu County; Historically, the third time he sent troops to Wudu, and Zhang Bao was also hung up at that time...... Wang Jun expressed regret that the director directly integrated these things.
The so-called capture of the six counties, Wang Jun felt that the old man Zhuge had a lot of appetite; Looking from west to east, Longxi County, Nan'an County, Wudu County, Yinping County, Tianshui County, and Guangwei County have basically removed half of the entire Yongzhou; And after the two Guan and Zhang mentioned in the bag complete the capture task, they will be able to return to Zhao Zilong in three hours...... Phew!
This Zhuge old man is too shameless, after Guan and Zhang set off from Hanzhong, they divided their troops with Zhao Zilong and went straight to Wudu County, and went northwest to the westernmost part of Longxi County (today's southern suburbs of Lanzhou), and then rushed to Weixing County (today's Ankang City); Not to mention that Guanzhang's army relies on its legs, even in the 21st century, it will be too late to use armored troops; This round trip is at least 1,500 kilometers, 3 hours, that is, 6 hours, and there is a siege on the way...... Compared with the old man Zhuge , Wang Jun suddenly felt that he was very noble and said, at least when he fooled people, it would not be outrageous to this extent.
Not to mention anything else, Guangguang returned to the fork in the road where he and Guan Zhang divided their troops, and Wang Jun and the others walked for two days, three hours of cheating.
Standing on the hill, Zhao Zilong looked at the disgraced Zhang Shao and Guan Suo with a heartache, as for Zhang Bao and Guan Xing, they couldn't even get the corpses back......
Guan Xing and Zhang Bao's subordinates only rushed to the fork in the road between Wudu and Chencang, and stepped into the ambush of the Wei army; Because of the narrow terrain, the Shu army pulled and pulled too long, and what was even worse was that Guan Xing and Zhang Bao liked to rush to the front...... In the end, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao both died in ambush, and 60,000 Shu troops were defeated; Guan Suo and Zhang Shao, two young generals, gathered the remnants of the defeated generals and retreated all the way...... And the chief general of the Wei army is the famous general of Wei, the left general Zhang He.
How many centaurs does Zhang He have?
Guan Suo and Zhang Shao were confused, and no one could answer this question.
Unlike Zhao Zilong, Wang Jun is not interested in learning about this issue; Since the governor was replaced by Cao Ying by the director, and the main target was Zhao Zilong, it can be judged that Zhang He will not have too many people, at most the same as Guan Zhang's soldiers and horses; As for why they were defeated, this is a matter of the level of the generals on both sides, the level of Guan Xing and Zhang Bao in real history is unknown, anyway, in this world, these two guys who fight without saying a word are obviously not much better.
The son inherits the father's business, and the official is passed down from one official to another, it seems that the second-generation culture of the official is actually a historical heritage.
For Shu, the great luck in the misfortune is that Guan Suo and Zhang Shao are still alive and have brought back 30,000 horses......
"Humph! If it weren't for the fact that I wanted to arrest General Zhao, they wouldn't have wanted to live. ”
Cao Ying twisted her body and muttered; In addition to convenience, Wang Jun hugged her at other times and slept ...... Although he didn't remove his armor, he kept holding it like this, and Cao Ying wanted to cry without tears.
"That's right!" Wang Jun agreed with Cao Ying's words; If another 80,000 horses are transferred to Zhang He, the 60,000 Shu army will be wiped out.
"Who are you!" Guan Suo and Zhang Shao were furious when they heard this, and glared at Cao Ying together; Cao Ying was wearing Wei army armor, and Wang Jun's armor style, Guan and Zhang had never seen it...... Actually, these two guys have been peeking at Cao Ying for a while, beauty! Always catches the eye.
"Governor of the Wei Army, Cao Ying." Cao Ying's expression was indifferent, and he glanced at the two grizzled guys in front of him.
"What! …… Choke! Guan Suo and Zhang Shao immediately faced each other, their eyes red; Both of them had just lost their brothers, and the army was one of them, and they hated the Wei army from the bones.
"She's my wife...... What, do you guys have an opinion? Wang Jun's right hand rested on the hilt of the Qingyu Sword, and his tone was not good; If these two guys dare to do it, Wang Jun will never mind educating them well; On both sides of Wang Jun, Deng Zhi and Zhang Yi have already raised their weapons, Guan Zhang is a hair, dare to move his main general, try it.
"Stop it all!"
"She is now General Wang's wife, put down your swords and guns! And the two of you! ”
Zhao Zilong was angry, and his voice was loud; Comparing Cao Ying with the two fools in front of him, it is obvious that the younger generation of Wei is better, and the younger generation of Shu is at this level......
"Phew!" Deng Zhi spat on the side of his head and put away his spear; Zhang Yi was so gentle that he just put down his long knife, as if he hadn't raised it at all.
"Uncle......" The two little pot friends withered, since they were children, when have they ever seen Zhao Zilong get angry with them?
"Shut up!"
After a small episode, everyone continued on their way; Guan Suo and Zhang Shao left first with the remnants, and the Zhao family army was broken.
…………
"Love Jiangshan...... Love beauty even more......"
Looking at the dense army, Wang Jun was in a good mood and sang a little song at the top of his voice.
"It's a good song, where did you learn it?" Cao Ying fights with a pipa and has good attainments in music.
"Obviously I made it up myself, right?"
"Just you?"
"What? Could it be that you made it up? ”
"You ......"
"I made it up for you."
Stepping on the stirrup, Wang Jun began to fool Cao Ying, saying that this world was originally a big fool, and one more Wang Jun is nothing; Were there stirrups during the Three Kingdoms period? Is there gunpowder? Is there a Glaive?
There are many records in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms that Guan Yu stabbed xx off the horse, obviously not a glaive knife...... Speaking of which, Cao Ying and Wang Jun should not exist.
A flickering world, a flickering king's army.
On the other hand, it was not good to disturb Wang Jun to find his sister's Deng Zhi and find Ada and Arnold.
"Adago, can you understand me?"
"What's the matter?"
"Are you and Arnold better?"
"I can't answer that question for you."
“……”
Ada and Arnold were extremely scratched in the Wei army, and they had already shocked Deng Zhi; For Deng Zhi and the others, Ada and Arnold, who took off their helmets, looked like people from the Western Regions at first when they looked like they were from the Western Regions, and they were worried that they would not be able to communicate at first.
Because the system has all the languages on the planet, there is no obstacle for Ada, Arnold and Deng Zhi to communicate, but Ada Arno is only a Terminator T850 model, and he is obviously not good at communication.
The 20,000 Zhao family troops are full of morale, while the 30,000 soldiers of the Guan Zhang family are all disgraced; Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are armies, there are factions; The Guan and Zhang families are closer, but there are some small contradictions between them; Because of the in-laws, the two families of Zhao and Ma are naturally very close; And the Huang family, since Huang Zhong's death, the Huang family's army no longer exists, and the soldiers and horses have been recovered and redistributed by Zhuge Liang...... The reason is also very simple, because Huang Zhong has no queen.
In fact, the forces in Shuzhong are complicated, especially in order to balance, there have been countless marriages, for example, Zhang Fei's two daughters have become Adou's wives...... Generally speaking, the current forces in Shuzhong are divided into 4 major factions; Zhuge Liang faction, Emperor (Adou) faction, Guanzhang faction, Zhao Ma faction.
From a dark point of view, Wang Jun believes that the Northern Expedition arranged by Old Man Zhuge definitely has the unhealthy idea of borrowing the hands of the Wei army; That is, it can solve the only surviving Five Tiger General, Zhao Zilong, and it can also weaken the strength of the Guanzhang faction; Not to mention, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao dared to snatch the handsome seal in person, and obviously did not take Zhuge Liang seriously, which also reflected that Zhuge Liang did not really have the power to lean towards the government and the opposition.
Of course, the capture of the six counties is indeed the focus of the plan, otherwise how would Zhuge Liang live on face?
Regarding Zhuge Liang's abacus, Zhao Zilong is a Confucian general, and he will not be so stupid that he can't understand it at all; At least, after seeing the so-called White Tiger Tips in the Mountain Temple, I know it completely; He really didn't have time to think about it right now, though.
Looking at Wang Jun, who was in love with Cao Ying all the way, Zhao Zilong couldn't help but recall the time when he just met Soft Girl...... Time flies, everything disappears; If she could have the courage of Wang Jun at the beginning, how could the soft girl end up with no bones? Although he later married Ma Chao's sister Ma Wenlu, he could no longer find that sweet feeling......
Tens of thousands of horses marched mightily for a while, and the towering Hanzhong City appeared in front of Wang Jun's eyes.
The huge city gate is already a hole, the lupine scarf, the white clothes are like snow, and the beard of the old man Zhuge is also white, he led people to greet him outside the city gate in person, but the expression on his face was gloomy......
The messengers of the two groups arrived in Hanzhong City a day in advance, and Zhuge Liang knew yesterday that this time the Shenma plan was over!
Guan Zhang's main force, which was counting on being able to establish merits, was directly knocked out in half, and Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, two fools, also lost their lives; These are not the point, the second generation of disobedient officials, just die! But the problem is that at the cost of 30,000 people, you didn't grab half an inch of land?
Zhao Zilong, who was used as a bait by himself, is still very violent, why can't this guy die? Zhao Jiajun was uninjured, and he also cut off more than 2,000 right ears of Wei Jun and came back; Cao Ying, the governor of the Wei army, is said to have been captured by Zhao Zilong's newly acquired warrior Wang Jun as his wife......
Own perfect plan, for Mao will become so messy?
Zhuge Liang is in a very bad mood, very bad!
From the perspective of the overall situation, even if 20,000 Zhao Jiajun are sacrificed, at least 20,000 or more Wei troops can be spelled, and Zhuge Liang believes that Zhao Zilong can also do this; According to the comparison of the strength of Shu and Wei, it is actually still a loss, but this can achieve its own goal, and it doesn't matter how much it consumes some of Wei's troops.
The main force of Guanzhang, which he had high hopes for, was expected to lose up to 10,000 people, but he could take Longxi County, Nan'an County, Wudu County, Yinping County, Tianshui County, and Guangwei County, occupying half of Yongzhou, and isolating the Liangzhou region of Wei, which was definitely a brilliant battle; In order to cooperate with Guan Zhang's actions, Zhuge Liang mobilized all his manpower lurking in the six counties!
Now the tragedy is that Guan Zhang has not gained an inch of land, and he has been beaten to half-crippled by the Wei army; And the people lurking in the six counties, without the assistance of the Guanzhang army, once launched, will definitely die......
"Old General Zhao, thank you for your hard work!"
Seeing Zhao Zilong approaching, Zhuge Liang took the lead in greeting him, and seemed to be very polite.
"Prime Minister, I'm tired."
Zhao Zilong was almost plotted in Fengming Mountain, so what kind of mood did he have, he responded lightly and stopped talking.
The old man Zhuge was thoughtful, and when he saw Lao Zhao's expression, he was still calm; However, the group of generals and officials behind him were not happy, and most of their faces were down; Obviously, these people belong to Zhuge Liang's gang, and they can't see Zhao Zilong's posture of dragging.
Because of Cao Ying, Wang Jun was in a good mood, at least with a faint smile on his face; glanced at the old man Zhuge and his group, and with the help of the character's surname observation skills, he found that there were still many historical figures here.
Wei Yan, the governor of Hanzhong, Wu Yi, the governor of Guanzhong, Liao Hua, the governor of Guangwu, and Wang Ping, the general of Pi; Prime Minister's Mansion Governor Shi Zhangyi and Xiang Lang
; Prime Minister Yang Yi, Jiang Wan, Fei Yi; The prime minister's mansion led the army to be favored; Prime Minister's Mansion, Huo Yi, Zhuge Qiao...... Not to mention Liao Hua, who was smeared by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wang Ping alone is a very bullish character in the later Shu Han.
It stands to reason that seeing so many famous Shu Han figures in history at once, Wang Jun's mood can be even better; Not to mention asking them to sign an autograph or take a group photo, but there is no problem in calling them brothers, and you can satisfy your vanity a little...... It's just that the next words of Old Man Zhuge made Wang Jun unhappy, very unhappy!
"This young general is Wang Jun, right?"
After letting Zhao Zilong go, the old man Zhuge turned his head and stared at Wang Jun; Although the words were very polite, there was a hint of coldness in the pupils.
"Prime Minister, what's wrong?" Wang Jun is strange, what are you looking for me?
"General Zhao's battle report surprised us!" Seeing Wang Jun and Zhao Zilong's virtue, Zhuge Liang began to laugh, and the four words "surprised" were particularly heavy.
"Oh?" Wang Jun is noncommittal, you can play whatever you want.
"In the first battle, I shot 60 Wei soldiers by myself...... In the second battle, only 34 people repelled the Wei army of 5,000 people and killed more than 500 people...... In the third battle, only 34 people repelled 100,000 Wei troops, killed more than 1,600 people, and captured ...... alive" Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang shifted his gaze from Wang Jun's face to Cao Ying's face, paused, and then continued: "The Governor of the Wei Army, Cao Ying? ”
"What do you think?"
Old man Zhuge suddenly raised his voice and looked back to ask Wei Yan and his gang.
"The devil believes it!" Guan Suo and Zhang Shao didn't know when they also squeezed over, and when they saw the prime minister making trouble, they immediately responded.
"Unbelievable! ......"Wei Yan and others actively followed, and they had a very rehearsed taste; However, Wang Jun noticed that Wang Ping did not participate, but just stayed quietly and did not squeak.
Zhuge Liang turned around, did not respond to Wei Yan and them, and said to himself.
"The Guan family army, the Zhang family army, 60,000 horses, fought a bloody battle with the Wei army, and lost more than half of the men and horses...... Guan Xing and Zhang Bao both sacrificed their lives for the country...... As the commander of the Northern Expedition, Liang is deeply ashamed of his kindness to the ancestors! Shame on the 30,000 Shu lieutenant soldiers who died! ”
"Guan Suo and Zhang Shao were able to gather the soldiers and return safely when the main general was killed and the army was newly defeated, and their merits and demerits were compensated...... And bright, will be asked to self-depreciate the third level ......"
Zhuge Liang's speech level is really good, his voice is subdued, and his face is extremely sad; However, Wang Jun knows that this product has not yet said the point, and is waiting!
"As for the Zhao army, it only got 20,000 horses, against 100,000 Wei troops, killed more than 2,000 enemies, captured most of the Wei army's governors, did not break a single soldier or general, and retreated...... After verification, it should be credited with great merit and given a heavy reward! ”
Wang Jun's smile had faded.
"After verification"?
This old man Zhuge really dares to play!
Zhao Zilong's face was gloomy; People are like this, when you put your feelings aside, your intelligence can return to a normal level, and you can't be fooled repeatedly, right? He understood the trick played by Zhuge Liang; The merits must be verified, this is the rule in the army, why talk nonsense, Zhuge Liang made it clear that he didn't believe it, and he also laid out things to talk about.
Really......
"No! Please investigate thoroughly! ”
"There must be a conspiracy!"
"If it weren't for the collusion with the Wei army, how could you get out of the way?"
"Find a random woman to wear the clothes of the Wei army, is it the Metropolitan Governor? Who knows? ”
"Didn't Zhao Jiajun catch an internal annihilation? Bring it over and ask! ”
…………
"What do you say!" Deng Zhi's eyes widened angrily, and he yelled at Wei Yan and the others; In terms of position, Deng Zhi is lower, but they only respect Zhao Zilong in the army, not to mention that Wei Yan and these people actually question Zhao Jiajun, so they will not be polite.
Zhao Zilong's face was very cold, and his heart was also very cold; Man stands still, but the muscles of his arms have flared up; Zhuge Liang calculated that he didn't explain anything once, so he wanted to come a second time?
"You don't have to be angry...... Things are a little strange, and some doubts are commonplace...... Liang naturally believed in Zhao Jiajun...... However, since it is true, why not investigate it thoroughly? ”
After Zhuge Liang said these words, he glanced at Zhao Zilong.
From the moment he received Zhao Zilong's battle report, Zhuge Liang regretted giving the white tiger a tip in his heart; The original relationship between the two was better than that of appearance, but now, there will not even be appearance.
Obviously, Zhao Zilong's reaction made Zhuge Liang depressed; Lao Zhao didn't say a word, just looked up at the big banner of the word "Shu" on the city tower.
…………
The first boss looked at the second boss, and the second boss ignored anyone and only looked at the flag; At the gate of the city, the atmosphere is eerie.
"Ahem...... Xiang Pet, you go and bring the Inner Annihilation Luo Ping'an discovered by Zhao Jiajun. Zhuge Liang saw that Zhao Zilong actually ignored him completely, and his determination to get rid of him was even stronger.
Regarding Zhao Zilong's battle report, Zhuge Liang has his own judgment.
First, 100,000 Wei troops, this is true;
Second, Luo Ping'an is an internal annihilation, which is hard to say;
Third, the tiger general Wang Jun was collected, and he also took 33 soldiers to defeat the Wei army Yunyun with these 34 people, which must be fake.
Fourth, more than 2,000 Wei troops were cut, some ordnance was seized, etc., which are also true.
Zhuge Liang has already sketched a rough framework for Zhao Zilong's affairs in his mind.
20,000 Zhao troops were surrounded by 100,000 Wei troops and were forced to retreat to Fengming; After that, Zhao Zilong saw the White Tiger Tips and felt resentful of himself...... In the end, certain deals were reached with Wei Jun; The Western Regions are now controlled by the Wei State in many places, find some Wei soldiers from the Western Regions, and put on some kind of armor from the Western Regions that no one has ever seen...... True and false to act, flicker, hum! Zhuge Liang himself is very good at this thing.
You can't blame Zhuge Liang for being cranky, people who haven't seen the battle of Fengming Mountain with their own eyes won't believe Zhao Zilong's battle report if they are killed;
Similarly, Wang Jun would never believe that his residence was labeled as a "Wei general".
Whether Wang Jun himself admits it or not, this is the case; Since he came to this chaotic world, everything has become even more chaotic...... (To be continued.) )
