Chapter 724: Master Wang

Du pre-led 20,000 elite Chinese troops to Xincheng.

Hundreds of thousands of troops in the north fought a decisive battle, but the three counties of Shangyong were unusually peaceful.

"Zhuge Xu's 30,000 army is shrinking in Wancheng, there are 20,000 Jingzhou troops in Yanghu in Xiangyang in the south, and 30,000 troops of Sima Liang in Xinye. Zhou Zhi's first battle out of the mountain was won under the command of Du Pre.

It is to directly avoid red tape when the two meet.

The situation is not optimistic.

Du pre 20,000 elites, Zhou Zhi 10,000, plus the strength of Hanzhong, a total of 48,000 troops.

It looks like there are more than any other place, but the problem is that the three counties of Hanzhong and Shangyong also need to leave some troops to defend.

"It doesn't matter, our army was originally a partial division, pinning down and attacking sheep, and setting off momentum."

Although he has been a famous general for many years, Du Yu is still bookish, gentle and elegant, and makes people feel like a spring breeze.

"Yanghu is restrained by Lu Kang, he will not dare to go north, Sima Liang is also mediocre, what is the way? Zhuge Xu is not as far away as the governor, and the length of our army is in the field, and the last five thousand headquarters can trap Zhuge Xu, the governor waved the army to the east, straight to Xu, Luo, cut their hearts, destroy their liver and gallbladder, and stir the Central Plains! Liu Yin said loudly.

Some people grow old before they grow old, while others grow old and die.

Liu Yin is like this, he was seventy years old at the time, his beard and hair were white, but his body was raised, his eyes were like torches, and he was vigorous.

And he's not just a general.

In his early years, he and fellow villagers Du Zhen and Liu Shen were famous scholars in Shu, and later followed Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition, which could not only counsel the military, but also charge into battle, and bravely crowned the three armies.

"The general's courage is not diminished! That's a great strategy! "Du pre-Zhuangzhi.

5,000 against 30,000.

If it were someone else, Du Yu would only think that he was boasting about Haikou, but Liu Yin definitely had this ability.

In Jinjinwei that year, it was not 30,000 people who blocked it, but Zhonghui's 100,000 horses, and finally defeated Wang Hun.

"In that case, tomorrow we will make a big show and march into Wancheng, and scare Zhuge Xu first." Du pre-smiled.

The mountains between Xincheng County and Shangyong are blocked, and only a few tributaries of the Han River stretch to Wancheng.

At that time, Sima Yi marched 1,200 miles on the eighth day, and captured Mengda with the help of waterways.

However, the topography of the three counties of Shangyong also determined that it was impossible to attack with heavy troops.

Logistics and supply are difficult, and it is necessary to solve them quickly.

The next day, the army was half-full, the iron armor roared, and went straight to Wancheng.

All the way forward, there are no people along the way.

The confrontation between the three kingdoms has always been like this, and they will set up no man's land with each other to avoid plunder, Huainan is the same, and the same is true of Hanzhong.

And Zhuge Xu has long been fortified and cleared.

Large tracts of fertile land have become no-man's land.

In the wilderness, only monster-like dock forts stand.

Of course, Du Yu would not spend his mind on these dock forts.

However, the little Haoqiang in these dock forts were quite knowledgeable, and sent some grain, pigs and sheep along the way to treat the Qin army.

The Qin army also did not trample on their fields.

Very tacit.

After passing through the county, the scouts of the Jin army finally discovered the traces of the Qin army.

Follow all the way.

Du Yu completely ignored it and swaggered towards Wancheng.

As Zhou Zhi said, Zhuge Xu couldn't shrink and was indifferent.

Du ordered the army to dig deep ditches and high fortifications, and arrange fortifications.

Until the Qin army camp was erected, Zhuge Xu did not send troops.

Du pre-sighed: "The former Zhuge Wuhou, Zhuge Ziyu, and Zhuge Gongxiu were all heroes of the first generation, but I didn't think that Zhuge Xu was so timid!" ”

The Qin army of 30,000 horses came from afar, and Zhuge Xu not only had 30,000 troops in his hands, but also tens of thousands of young men in the important town of Wancheng.

However, it is precisely because of Zhuge Xu's caution that Du Yu has nothing to do.

If the 30,000 Qin army wants to break through such an important town as Wancheng, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

"Can Zhuge Xu'an be compared to Wuhou? 5,000 subordinates are enough! Liu Yin sneered at Zhuge Xu, and Zhuge Wuhou had a respected status in his mind.

Du Pre bowed, "The back road of our army is in the hands of the general!" ”

Liu Yin solemnly returned the salute, "Go to the governor!" ”

There is no gambling curse to swear, it is as calm as water, but it makes Du Yu respect Liu Yin more and more.

After a day's rest, he led more than 20,000 Qin troops to march eastward.

is still beating gongs and drums, as if he is afraid that the Jin army will not know.

Xinye Sima Liang sent a team of more than 100 people to watch, but just to see.

The Qin army was full of tigers and wolves in Yang Zheng's hands, and he did nothing less to kill people and set fires.

But in the hands of Du Pre, there is quite the atmosphere of the king's army, there is no law for the people, it is strictly forbidden for the soldiers to trample on the people's farmland, and occasionally the war horse accidentally stepped on the crops in the field, leaving several times the money and silk to compensate.

Install the latest version. 】

Passing by some small towns, the people in the city were panicked, Du Yu actually sent Xuan Yilang to appease, and when he left, he also bought a lot of food.

In several small towns where the plague was still going on, Du Yu also ordered the medical officer to go to rectify it......

Gradually, the people became less resistant to the Qin army.

Nanyang was originally the hardest hit area of the plague, and the Sima family didn't care, but now someone is in charge.

Many of the bandits on the cottage were originally pulled up by the Xuanyi envoy of the Qin State and the Jinyi Guard.

The Qin army went east, and the mountains were full of people who sent food and asked to join the army.

Although it is a drop in the bucket, the atmosphere and momentum have been raised.

When the people of Nanyang saw this posture, they also became friendly to the Qin army, and took the initiative to lead the way for the Qin army, bypassing the pass of the Jin army.

"In the past, Wuhou went out of the Qinling Mountains and entered the Wuzhang Plain, the people ate the pot pulp to welcome, Wuhou Qiu did not commit any crimes, the people of Guanzhong did not suffer from the disaster of swords, the world praised, this time the governor did it, and it was no less than the Wuhou of the year." Zhou Zhi exclaimed.

But it doesn't hurt to do so.

Food and military funds are depleted extremely quickly.

Du Yu is not here to fight, but seems to have come to help the people.

They have already advanced into Yuzhou, and no army has come out to meet them......

"An dare to be on a par with Wuhou?" Du said modestly.

Zhou Zhi was a little depressed and said: "Our army has entered Yuzhou for half a month, and no army has come to meet it, do you really want to attack Xuchang and Luoyang?" ”

The Jin army couldn't shrink out, and no matter how powerful the Qin army was in the field, it was helpless.

It seems that these Taishou, generals, and assassins have already seen through Du Yu's bluff, and the Qin army is just here to take a walk around and will go back soon.

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, the art of war is cloudy, the siege is the bottom, and the heart is the top. The people of the Central Plains regard us as tigers and wolves, and now let them know the benevolence of His Majesty, and they have benefited a lot! Du pre never seemed to be discouraged.

"Report to the governor, Zhuge Xu suddenly sent troops and was attacking Liu Taishou, Xinye Sima Liang heard the wind and sent 10,000 troops to support!" The scouts rushed to report.

Zhou Zhi's eyes lit up, "It's finally out!" The last general is willing to lead 5,000 steps to ride forward, go to flank Zhuge Xu, and take Wancheng! ”

Du pre-stared at the sheepskin map thoughtfully.

"There are only 5,000 people in Liu Taishou!" Zhou Zhi said urgently.

Liu Yin was able to resist Zhonghui's 100,000 army because the Golden Siege was originally a fortress.

Now under Wancheng, there is only one barracks, although the fortifications are strong, but after all, they face tens of thousands of enemy troops.

Du said calmly: "Liu Xiuran will not live up to the trust, our army is hundreds of miles away from Wancheng, if you return, Zhuge Xu and Sima Liang will definitely shrink into the city again, our army is running back and forth, the soldiers are tired, it is not advisable, the Jin people think that our army is bluffing and cannot last, but they want to kill them by surprise, and order the armies to attack Xuchang!" ”

If you don't really fight, you won't be able to shake the Central Plains.
