Chapter 255: Pioneer Fu Wei Unexpectedly

Under Guan Yu's arrangement, the general who led the Han army forward through the Han River was Fu Wei.

Fu Wei is a member of the word Gonghe, a person from Nanyang Yiyang.

In terms of origin, Fu Wei and Wei Yan are fellow villagers, and Fu Wei and Wei Yan defected to Liu Bei together.

Although Wei Yan and Fu Wei were not from high-ranking families, both of them were full of courage, so they were gradually appreciated by Liu Bei and promoted along the way.

Fu Wei is not outstanding in the current star-studded Han General Heavenly Regiment, but his reputation in later generations is not low.

In history, when Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Xun in Yiting, Liu Bei collected his troops to Ma'anshan, Lu Xun re-attacked it, and Liu Bei broke through at night.

When Liu Bei was surrounded by the Wu legion, it was Fu Wei who led his troops to resist the battle.

At that time, all his soldiers were dead, and the generals of Wu persuaded him to surrender, and Fu Wei scolded: "Wu dog! How can there be a Han general?"

In the end, he fought to the death.

It can be said that if it were not for Fu Wei's desperate decision, Liu Bei's safety at that time would be unpredictable.

And his loyal and courageous behavior and touching scolding have been passed down in the world for thousands of years.

Jiangyang is strong, the emperor is clear, the soldiers meet Kou, do not bend to their bodies, serve alone, die in the army, and the people of the time praise him.

What's more, he also has a good son, Fu Yan.

Later, when Emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Dynasty heard about the deeds of Fu's father and son, even he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Fu Yan and his son, the world's goodness."

Well, envy Ji Hanshi.

The Ji Han style bones that were handed down in later generations were started by the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang.

But what really supported Ji Han's reputation for thousands of years is that there are many Ji Han celebrities who are not as famous as the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang.

The ability of some of those famous ministers of Ji Han is debatable, but their qualities are all unquestionable, because even the enemy will feel very admired for them.

In history, Fu Wei was only a glimpse, but with the existence of Mi Yang in this world, the fate of many Ji Han ministers has been changed.

In the next world, they are bound to leave a strong mark.

When Liu Bei was still the king of Hanzhong, when he led the army to leave Xiangyang, in order to stabilize the overall situation of Jingzhou, he deliberately made a major adjustment to Jingzhou's personnel.

In that major personnel adjustment, Liu Bei left some Jingzhou officials who were able to follow him into Shu to stay in Jingzhou to assist Zuo Guan Yu.

For example, in terms of civil ministers, Ma Liang is the representative, and in terms of military generals, it is represented by Fu Wei.

At that time, Fu Wei was appointed by Liu Bei as the Taishou of Changsha, responsible for guarding the east gate of Jingnan.

In this year, Guan Yu often had the intention of the Northern Expedition, so he used his power to transfer Changsha Taishou Fu Wei to his account, and sent another general to replace Fu Wei in Changsha.

Guan Yu made this arrangement, not only because of Fu Wei's bravery, but also because of Fu Wei's background.

Fu Wei is a person from Yiyang, and Yiyang is on the north bank of the Han River, so Fu Wei is very familiar with the terrain on the north bank of the Han River.

The vanguard general must not only have the courage to take on the heavy responsibility of being the arrow of the army, but also have a certain understanding of the terrain of the expedition site, so as not to easily fall into the encirclement of the enemy.

Just as Guan Yu expected, when Fu Wei led his generals separately and jointly led 5,000 vanguard Han troops to set off from Xiangyang.

Fu Wei, who was familiar with the situation on the north bank of the Han River, did not follow the advice of others and crossed the water directly from the upper reaches of the Han River.

Fu Wei, who was familiar with water warfare, certainly knew the danger to the army if the enemy attacked halfway.

Therefore, even if it would be delayed for some time, Fu Wei still insisted on his own opinion and led the army to land, a little far from Fancheng, on the lower reaches of the Han River.

In this case, even if the Wei army in Fancheng wanted to attack them halfway, it was impossible for them to give up the Fancheng defense and come to the lower reaches of the Han River to intercept the Han army.

When the Han army began to cross the Han River from the lower reaches of the Han River, everything was not as Fu Wei expected.

Under his solemn actions, the vanguard of the 5,000 Han army successfully crossed the Han River and reached the north bank of the Han River.

But when the 5,000 Han army reached the north bank of the Han River

After that, Fu Wei did not go quickly towards Fancheng.

Under his orders, 5,000 Han troops slowly moved west along the Han River.

While leading the army towards Fancheng, Fu Wei ordered the army scouts to probe the enemy.

On the other hand, he ordered the warships carrying them not to stay away, and to swim in the Han waters, not far from the 5,000 Han army.

Fu Wei's arrangement was to ensure the safety of his 5,000-strong vanguard army.

Even if the Wei army had an ambush on his vanguard army, as long as there were Han warships on the Han River, it would not make the Han army under his command feel like they were in a desperate situation, so that the five thousand Han troops could hold out until the arrival of most of the subsequent reinforcements.

After all, as long as it does not enter the situation of Jedi or the collapse of the army's morale, even if Cao Xiu in Fancheng sends a Wei army twice as large as the Han army, the Wei army will not be able to eat the 5,000 Han army within a few days if the Han army resists in formation.

If you don't think about winning, you should lose first.

Among the Han generals, Fu Wei's personality is the one who tends to be calm.

Before being appointed by Liu Bei as the Taishou of Changsha, Fu Wei served as Liu Bei's guard general of the Chinese army.

And he can be appointed to this position by Liu Bei, which shows what his character is.

In terms of personality, Fu Wei can be compared with Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi.

It's just that Fu Wei's well-intentioned arrangement caused a person's incomprehension.

This person is Fu Wei's son, Fu Wei, who is only eighteen this year.

Fu Wei was young and vigorous, and he asked Fu Wei in private:

"The general appointed my father as the vanguard general, thinking that my father would rush to Fancheng quickly and open the way for the army behind him to set up camp, but why did my father march slowly?"

In Fu Yan's eyes, Fu Wei's actions are a little bit like what a pioneer general should do.

And Fu Yu felt that since Guan Yu appointed Fu Wei as the vanguard general, Fu Wei should work hard to perform and make military achievements for the country.

When Fu Wei followed Liu Bei into Jing to support Guan Yu last year, Fu Wei took Fu Wei with him.

Fu Wei's purpose is to let Fu Wei have more experience in the army, so that he can serve Liu Bei as soon as possible.

Because of this purpose, after he took Fu He with him, he always encouraged Fu He to ask if he didn't understand, so that Fu He could learn more things.

So when Fu Wei heard Fu Wei's question, he looked at Fu Wei, who was already as tall as him, Fu Wei patted Fu Wei's shoulder and taught:

"Soldiers, murderous things.

Today, our army has entered the realm of the thief army first, and every move will be discovered by the thief general Cao Xiu.

Cao Xiu is not a person who does not know soldiers, if he orders his father to order the army to march rashly, Cao Xiu may set up an ambush to invite our army.

If you are careless and taken advantage of by the thief army, you are not afraid of losing your teacher and dying, but you are afraid of defeating the morale of our army, so that you will lose the grace of the country!"

Hearing Fu Wei say this, a thoughtful look appeared on Fu Wei's face.

Seeing Fu Yan's look, Fu Wei immediately gave another example, and the protagonist of that example was called Sun Huan.

Didn't Sun Huan march rashly as a vanguard general, so he was defeated by General Mi Yang of Zuo and finally hung on the city?

When Fu Wei gave this example, the thoughtful look on Fu Wei's face immediately turned into a sudden realization.

You can't be Sun Hanglou, you have to learn from General Zuo.

When Fu Wei went south to Changsha to take up his post, Fu Wei also went to the Public Security City to pay homage to the hemp rope that has remained on the head of the Public Security City.

And because Mi Yang's operation was very happy, in the Han army in Jingzhou, Sun Huan was given a loud nickname - Sun Climbing Tower.

This title was first introduced from the mouth of Guan Ping, who had a calm personality......

may be in the eyes of many generals, their idol is Guan Yu, but in the eyes of the young man Fu Yan, Guan Yu's image is too tall, so his idol is Mi Yang, who is also a young man.

Seeing that Fu Wei immediately had a sudden look on his face after hearing him give the example of Mi Yang breaking Sun Huan, Fu Wei's face showed some smiles.

This kid

, it seems that I still want to go to General Yibei Zuo.

Knowing his son is Mo Ruo's father, besides, Fu Yan's mind did not hide anything from Fu Wei.

In fact, it is normal for Fu Yi to have this kind of thought.

In troubled times, all aspiring men want to build a career.

At present, among the several prefectures of the Han Dynasty, only the two prefectures of Yibei and Jingzhou are facing the enemy head-on.

Therefore, there is no doubt that among the two prefectures, there are the most opportunities to establish military exploits.

Compared with the older generals, the young generals want to go to Mi Yang.

may be because Mi Yang himself is a young man, so most of the generals he promoted are not too old.

In the list of the boiling achievements of the Battle of Xicheng that have already been spread in Jingzhou and Yizhou, the Yibei generals who have made military exploits are mostly young people.

This fact undoubtedly stimulates the hearts of many aspiring young people in Dahan to a great extent.

In their hearts, the Yibei Metropolitan District of Dahan is the most ideal place for meritorious service in their hearts.

Fu Wei, who knew Fu Yan's thoughts, secretly thought in his heart:

"When this battle is over, let's recommend it to General Zuo."

...

Although the march of the 5,000 Han army was not fast, it was not long before the 5,000 Han army came outside Fancheng.

Along the way, a question began to emerge in Fu Wei's heart.

That's why, all this time, none of the spies he sent out have detected the enemy's movements.

Although he specially led the army to cross the river from the lower reaches of the Han River, it was to avoid the possible half-crossing attack of the Wei army.

However, if the Wei army was unable to learn the news of the crossing of the river by the 5,000 Han army at first because of his actions, it was impossible for the Wei army not to detect the whereabouts of his army after his army crossed the river.

Under such circumstances, Cao Xiu, who had a lot of troops in his hands, never sent a Wei army to launch a tentative attack on his army, which made Fu Wei a little puzzled.

Because this does not match the personality introduction of Cao Xiu gathered in the intelligence.

Fu Wei didn't know what Sun Li proposed to Cao Xiu, so it was normal for him to have this kind of question in his heart.

In fact, on the second day when Fu Wei's army had just crossed the Han River, Cao Xiu, who was in Fancheng, received this military information.

At first, Cao Xiu did want to send troops to invite Fu Wei's troops, but in the intelligence, he learned about the march of Fu Wei's army, so Cao Xiu soon gave up this idea.

His style of employing soldiers has always been good and rigid, but rigidity is not reckless.

Obviously he already knew that it was useless to invite an attack, so Cao Xiu would not do this kind of thing easily.

Moreover, Sun Li had already offered him a better strategy.

Therefore, after learning that the 5,000 Han army had crossed the river, Cao Xiu could only secretly sigh: The vanguard general of the enemy army is not a mediocre person.

Without Cao Xiu sending troops to stop him, Fu Wei successfully led 5,000 Han troops to a few miles away from Fancheng.

After arriving here, Fu Wei didn't care what Cao Xiu had in mind, he immediately ordered the army to start camping.

It would not be long before Guan Yu's army arrived, and before that he had to set up his tent.

During the encampment, no matter day or night, Fu Wei has been leading his personal guards to personally inspect the army.

He was worried that the Wei army in Fancheng would attack the camp while the army was encamped.

But until Fu Wei set up the camp, the situation he feared never happened.

As time passed, Fu Wei also guessed Cao Xiu's thoughts in his heart.

Did Cao Xiu want to take advantage of defending the city to deplete their army?

Not long after Fu Wei set up the camp, tens of thousands of Han troops led by Guan Yu personally came outside Fancheng.

After tens of thousands of Han troops entered the camp, Guan Yu immediately summoned the generals to start the discussion.

Before the tens of thousands of troops led by Guan Yu arrived, Fu Wei had been reporting all the information he had found after crossing the river to Guan Yu.

This is the most important duty of the pioneer general.

Under Fu Wei's intelligence, Guan Yu and the generals who had just arrived outside Fancheng roughly understood the current situation outside Fancheng.

At the same time, the generals also had the same guess as Fu Wei in their hearts.

Sun Li's strategy is more like a yang scheme, so as long as the intelligence is collected enough and accurate, although the generals of the Han army cannot completely guess the intentions of the Wei army, it is not difficult to guess their general intentions.

But the reason why Yangmou is called Yangmou is that it is not difficult to guess, but it is difficult to destroy.

Although Fancheng was dilapidated under the siege of Guan Yu, the city defense of Fancheng has been repaired under the auspices of Cao Xiu this year.

The most important thing is that at present, Cao Xiu has at least tens of thousands of Wei troops in his hands.

The city is strong and strong, and the hard bone of Fancheng is not easy to gnaw.

Even according to the existing strength of the Han army, it would be difficult for Guan Yu to surround Fancheng as before.

During the Battle of Xiangfan, the reason why Guan Yu was able to besiege Xiangyang and Fancheng with an army of 30,000 was because Cao Ren suffered a defeat at that time, and the Wei army suffered a lot of casualties.

In the end, Cao Ren only had a few Wei troops trapped in Fancheng, and Guan Yu was able to do this.

Although this battle is not recorded in the history books, it can be inferred from the facts.

Otherwise, according to Cao Ren's position at that time, it would be impossible to take a small number of troops and wait for Guan Yu to besiege him.

Since the times were different, the generals began to suggest that Guan Yu should attack Fancheng as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once the reinforcements of the thief army arrive, then this battle will be even more difficult to fight.

But in the end, Guan Yu made a decision that was unexpected by everyone.

He ordered all the troops to pull out the camp and move forward, build a strict siege to besiege Fancheng.
