The Wei army set up an ambush on the way back to Lintao for the Qiang people, and the Qiang army was defeated, and under the call of the king of Midang, 40,000 Qiang soldiers were collected.

Most of the scattered Qiang soldiers followed the king of Midang to return to Cao Wei, but there were still more than 20,000 people, fleeing towards Longxi City, Guo Huai sent a cavalry to pursue, but was blocked by the Guan Yinping cavalry who came to meet the Shu army.

The two sides fought, but there was no winner or loser, Guo Huai did not know how many reinforcements the Shu army came, and did not dare to risk the pursuit in depth, so he recalled the pursuing cavalry.

As the so-called poor Kou Mo chases, Guo Huai felt that this group of Qiang people would be subdued by himself sooner or later, so he gathered the army, and then issued military orders again and again, mobilizing Jincheng, Nan'an and the army he brought out from Tianshui to besiege the Shu army from three roads.

He knew very well that the Shu army did not have much food, and within March, Longxi would inevitably run out of food, so he could surrender the army without a fight.

In this way, the Wei army controlled the east, west, and north sides of Longxi City, cutting off the connection between Longxi and the military capital of Shu.

Longxi City became an isolated island for a while.

Guo Huai's heart was very happy, Cao Aya's strategy was indeed very vicious, it seemed that Cao Wei had suffered a defeat in Longxi City, but in an instant, the situation was completely reversed.

He laid a larger encirclement for Jiang Weibu in the west of Yongzhou, so that Jiang Wei could only be trapped in Longxi City, and sooner or later he would be defeated.

The location of Guo Huai's ambush of the Qiang soldiers, near Yan County, belongs to the necessary place connecting Longxi and Lintao.

The fact that this ambush was able to achieve such a result has nothing to do with Cao Zhi.

Cao Zhi has lived in Longxi for a long time and is very familiar with the terrain of Longxi, so he personally selected the vicinity of the ambush in Yanxian County, which took advantage of the geographical advantages of the nearby mountains suitable for ambushes.

Guo Huai couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Cao Aya made a plan, Cao Zhi made a plan, Chen Tai made a surprise to create an opportunity for our army's ambush, these three young people are very smart and wise, and the future is terrifying!" ”

So he reorganized his troops and horses, marched east along the official road, planned to camp on the periphery of Longxi City, and began to besiege Longxi.

Guo Huai set up a large camp in Wuli outside the city of Longxi, and saw that the head of the city of Longxi was still well defended, and there were soldiers patrolling the city to guard the city wall, which was not easy to attack at all.

Guo Huai is not in a hurry at all, he just wants to slowly trap the Shu army, the Shu army is short of food, he is not lacking, he can afford it, and the Shu army can't afford it.

Guo Huai even began to order trenches to be dug in preparation for the construction of a fortified village, making a posture of long-term confrontation.

On the third day, he suddenly received a report from the sentry, saying that Jiang Weiqin led an army of 30,000 to attack Tianshui, such as today, the water is in danger!

Guo Huai was taken aback.

When did Jiang Wei set out to attack Tianshui? In the past few days, the defenders of Longxi City have been stared at by themselves, and they have no chance to leave the city at all.

In Guo Huai's big tent, Chen Tai, You Chu, Cao Zhi and others were also present, and they were very curious when they saw Guo Huai's surprise.

Chen Tai first asked, "Lord Thorn Shi, what happened?" ”

Guo Huai showed the information to Chen Tai, and Chen Tai also turned blue after reading it.

"Jiang Wei is attacking Tianshui? How is this possible? ”

Cao Zhi thought for a while and said: "After our army ambushed the Qiang people, they went straight to Longxi, without a moment's delay, during which Longxi City sent 30,000 troops to attack Tianshui, it is impossible for our army not to find out, and now there is only one possibility left!" ”

Guo Huai hurriedly asked, "What possibility?" ”

"Jiang Wei almost sent troops to attack Tianshui at the same time as our army ambushed the Qiang tribe!" Cao Zhi replied sonorously.

"If Jiang Wei sent troops to attack Tianshui at the same time as our army ambushed the Qiang people, then what did he want to do with such a risk? If our army takes the opportunity to defeat Longxi, but he does not defeat Tianshui, he will become a lone army! Guo Huai asked a little puzzled.

"Attack it and save it!"

Chen Tai and Cao Zhi blurted out almost at the same time.

Then the two looked at each other and smiled, and Cao Zhi signaled and asked Chen Tai to speak first.

Chen Tai said:

"Jiang Wei must have expected it, our army did not dare to risk attacking Longxi, first, there are still many garrisons in Longxi City, and it is extremely difficult to defeat them in a short time; Second, there is my princess of Dawei Dongxiang in Tianshui City, Tianshui is besieged, and you have to save Lord Shi! ”

"What General Chen said is extremely true, Jiang Wei's trick to encircle Wei and save Zhao is that we know that he wants to solve the dilemma of Longxi becoming an isolated island after he loses Lintao by fighting Tianshui, but we have to be led by his nose!" Cao Zhi shook his head and said.

"This Jiang Wei is really scheming!" Guo Huai said indignantly.

Then asked Chen Tai and Cao Zhi.

After Chen Tai thought about it, he said to Guo Huai:

"Lord Assassin Shi, the last general thinks that you should immediately order the army to return to Tianshui, and leave it to me here, as long as our army still maintains a deterrent to Longxi, Jiang Wei will not be able to break the situation for a while, if the Lord can defeat Jiang Wei in Tianshui, the Shu army is still in a desperate situation."

Guo Huai was a little worried, "Uncle Xuan, if I lead the main force back to Tianshui, will your troops here be too thin?" ”

"It's okay, I naturally won't continue to guard here, I will choose to withdraw my troops from Lintao, according to the city, as long as Lintao is still in the hands of my Great Wei, Jiang Wei will not be able to jump out of this overall situation, Longxi City has always been a lonely city, so I don't need to camp outside Longxi City."

Guo Huai felt that Chen Tai's words faintly had the meaning of slapping himself in the face, although he said it extremely implicitly, but he was still telling himself that in fact, there was no need to trap Longxi on the periphery of Longxi City, even in Lintao, he could besiege Longxi.

Fortunately, Guo Huai has a large belly, and has cooperated with many famous generals such as Cao Zhen, Sima Yi, Zhang He, etc., so naturally he will not be angry with a junior, so he said to Chen Tai with a smile:

"This is very good, then there is Lao Xuanbo, you lead the army to defend Lintao, I will hand over the command of the king to you, help you defend the city, at most ten days, I will lead the army back to help."

Chen Tai hurriedly possessed himself and received the order.

Guo Huai felt that Cao Zhi was also a material that could be made, although he was not very well received by the royal family, but it was also a very good candidate to stay by his side as a military advisor, so he said to Cao Zhi:

"Cao Changshi, this general sees that you are resourceful, and the magistrate of Longxi County, Shi Qucai, is not allowed to lead the army, nor is she allowed to be promoted to an official position, but this general cherishes talents, and wants to ask you to be the chief historian of my Assassin Mansion, and praise the staff of my Yongzhou army, are you willing to arrange it?"

Cao Zhi hurriedly bowed down: "Cao Yun thanked Lord Thorn Shi for his love!" ”

Guo Huai looked at You Chu with a smile again, "Lord You, then I'm going to take love!"

You Chu hurriedly said: "Lord Meng Assassin Shi is very important, this is Cao Zhi's blessing, how dare the lower officials bend their talents!" ”

"Hahahaha, that's fine, then Cao Zhi, you will be my military advisor in the future!" Guo Huai looked at Cao Zhi with a smug expression.

Cao Zhi was also so excited that his face was full of red light, and he said to Guo Huai:

"Please also ask Lord Assassin Shi for more advice!"

Chen Tai also admired Cao Zhi's talent, so he congratulated him:

"Congratulations to Lord Assassin Shi for winning the military advisor, and congratulations to Brother Cao Zhixian for entering the Assassin Mansion!"

The crowd was again excitedly complimenting each other.

Guo Huai was overjoyed when he received Cao Zhi, but the military situation was like fire, and he didn't dare to delay at all, so he hurriedly ordered his troops and horses and hurriedly went back to the direction of Tianshui City.
