Chapter 509: Winning Without a Fight Sun Li was chilled
Some news can't be hidden, especially for Jianye, which has been infiltrated by the family.
When Shi Yi sent the order to Yong'an, it didn't take long for the entire Jianye City to know that Sun Quan was going to recall Lu Xun.
And when this news was known to the important ministers of Jiangdong, they all understood Sun Quan's decision.
There were many local ministers in Jiangdong who wanted to jointly meet Sun Quan at the first time, and wanted to persuade Sun Quan to take back his fate.
For the ministers of Jiangdong itself, in order to protect their own vested interests, they have always not supported the use of foreign troops.
If you have to use troops abroad, then the best and only choice should be Jingzhou, and it will never be Hefei.
It's just that before the Jiangdong ministers were connected, another blockbuster news began to circulate, directly shocking them.
"In the first battle of Liangzhou, the Wei army was annihilated."
This news was very brief, and it did not elaborate on how Mi Yang won, but it was this short news that plunged the entire Jianye City into an eerie silence.
Many undercurrents that could not be seen on the bright side were rushing, and after a long time, the important ministers of Zhujiangdong, who were originally going to prevent Sun Quan from attacking Hefei in tandem, also dispelled this idea.
What's more, he directly ordered people to seal the soil at his gate, and used decisive means to show his idea of refusing visitors.
This person is Zhang Zhao, the first important minister in Jiangdong today.
Zhang Zhao did this for a very simple reason, without him, his face hurts.
His original assertion, but the entire Jianye City knew it, and it has always been the most critical argument for the local ministers of Jiangdong to oppose the Northern Expedition.
And after Zhang Zhao closed the door and refused to visit, it meant that there was no power within Jiangdong to stop Sun Quanbing's move to Hefei.
Military orders were sent from the Taiwei Mansion in Jianye City to all parts of Jiangdong.
Koto, who has been recuperating for several years, finally intends to show its fangs again.
And Sun Quan's undisguised large-scale transfer of troops and grain naturally could not hide the spies planted by Cao Wei.
Soon, an intensified military situation was marching towards Hefei at a very fast speed.
This military situation is bound to bring about drastic changes in the situation in the world again.
The encirclement has been completed, and Cao Wei has become a fish and meat on the case.
At the end of August of the fourth year of Han Zhangwu, after a period of rest, Mi Yang finally led the army to Yangping Pass.
As early as half a month ago, Mi Yang had successively transferred troops to Yangping Pass, and he himself left Nanzheng and came to Seoul not far from Yangping Pass.
However, after the flood raged, the roads were muddy and difficult to navigate, and the war had just been experienced, so Mi Yang should also be sympathetic and let the army have a good rest.
Anyway, Cao Hong couldn't run again.
When Cao Zhen's army had not yet been destroyed, the main force of Liangzhou was pinned down by Cao Zhen's army, and Cao Hong blocked the passage outside Yangping Pass, which caused the whole territory of Hanzhong to fall into a situation of war everywhere.
But when Cao Zhen's army was destroyed, not only could the main force of Liangzhou be withdrawn, but Mi Yang also received the assistance of 50,000 troops from Yizhou.
At this moment, the offensive and defensive situation of the enemy and the enemy has completely changed.
Mi Yang did not transfer all his troops to Yangping Pass, he only brought 30,000 troops to Yangping Pass.
The reason why Mi Yang did not transfer all his troops to Yangping Pass was because he needed to leave part of the army behind to prepare for the subsequent Northern Expedition.
On the other hand, in the current situation, it is not difficult for 30,000 troops to defeat the Wei army of Cao Hong and Guo Huai.
This is not Mi Yang's arrogance.
Although the 30,000 army may be about the same as Cao Hong's strength in terms of data, it is even less than the combined strength of Cao Hong and Guo Huai.
But war is never a simple contest of data.
No matter how many troops Cao Hong and Guo Huai had, they were also guest troops, while Mi Yang's army was the main army that occupied a favorable location.
Moreover, after Mi Yang led the army to Yangping Pass, Cao Hong's grain transportation route was always exposed to the threat of the Han army's soldiers, which allowed the Han army to occupy the initiative in the war, that is, Tianshi.
The most important thing is that after this period of brewing, Cao Hong may have received the news of Cao Zhen's defeat.
Even if Cao Hong didn't receive the news, it didn't matter, Mi Yang would help him with this.
After the leading army arrived at Yangping Pass, Mi Yang did not immediately lead his troops to launch a fierce attack on the Wei camp.
Mi Yang thinks of soldiers who surrender without a fight.
Mi Yang ordered to show the Wei army banners and military resources obtained by cleaning the battlefield to the Wei army in the camp one by one.
In addition, Mi Yang also selected thousands of high-profile sergeants from the army and ordered them to divide into two groups outside the Wei army's camp day and night, publicizing the news of Cao Zhen's annihilation.
When Mi Yang arranged for someone to do these two things, he stayed quietly in Yangping Pass, waiting for the development of the situation.
Compared with Mi Yang's composure, Cao Hong was almost anxious to grab all his beards at this time.
Today, Cao Hong convened a meeting in the big tent for the third time.
The generals who were summoned by Cao Hong saw Cao Hong anxiously grabbing his beard, and their faces were full of dead color.
After learning the news of the Han army's propaganda a few days ago, the entire Wei army camp fell into a panic.
If it was just the verbal propaganda of the Han army, then the tens of thousands of Wei troops would not be like this.
But it is important to note that at the same time, the Han army also displayed many of the armor banners discarded by the Wei army in the open space outside the Wei army camp.
The most disgusting thing is that I don't know if Mi Yang came up with the idea, the Han army must calmly update different armor and banners every day under the watchful eye of the Wei army.
Whenever they saw the Han army transporting new armor banners, and then putting the old armor banners on vehicles and transporting them back to Yangping Pass, the mentality of tens of thousands of Wei troops almost collapsed.
What does this prove?
It proves that there are still many armor flags in Yangping Pass that will be displayed in the future, and it proves that the incident that the Han army has publicized in recent days is likely to be true!
How can this mentality not explode?
And Cao Hong urgently convened a parliament on the first day of the arrival of Mi Yang's army.
Sometimes, Cao Hong would even convene several parliaments on the same day.
To this day, the Wei generals do not know how many times they have participated in the parliament in the past few days.
But has the frequent convening of parliaments solved the actual problem?
No, this can be seen from Cao Hong's performance.
The actual problem at the moment is that tens of thousands of Wei troops were cut off by Mi Yang's army.
And because Zhuge Liang led "tens of thousands of Han troops" out of the Sword Pavilion to camp before, this led to the tens of thousands of Wei troops going to Yinping to join Guo Huai.
In this case, the tens of thousands of Wei troops led by Cao Hong are currently in a state of being shut down and beaten.
This was another major reason for the violent turmoil in the hearts of tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Cao Hong's anxiety fell in the eyes of the generals, and he knew that he was currently facing a desperate situation, and the dead color on the faces of the generals became more and more intense.
If you are in a desperate situation, you can't do anything about it, how can this not make people despair?
But sometimes emotions affect each other.
Cao Hong looked at the lifeless look on the faces of the generals, which made the fear in his heart quietly breed.
For a while, Cao Hong and the generals in the tent looked at each other, but they made both of them lose hope for the future of their own army.
This also left the whole tent in an eerie tranquility.
It's as tranquil as a mourning hall.
It seems that these Wei generals today are not gathered to discuss matters, but to mourn for their tens of thousands of troops.
However, Cao Wei occupies the essence of China, and capable people emerge in an endless stream, and in the current big tent, it is not that no one has a solution in his heart.
For example, Sun Li.
Sun Li saw a lifeless look in the big tent, and he was so angry that he almost crushed a mouthful of steel teeth.
Is this still the Great Wei who dominates the world?
Because of the anger in his heart, above today's council, Sun Li couldn't hold back anymore in an instant, he stood up directly and came to Cao Hong and admonished:
"Hussar general, this is not the time to hesitate, the longer the time drags on, the more depressed the morale of our army will be.
Our army should take advantage of the fact that the morale of the army has not yet collapsed, and concentrate its forces to break through! ”
Sun Li's tone was loud, but after he finished speaking, it attracted sparse laughter from the tent.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if tens of thousands of Wei troops want to escape, the only way to break through is to break through.
But how can it be abrupt?
Cao Hong didn't open his mouth to sneer at Sun Li.
Although Sun Li's current military rank is not high, but on the night of Liu Feng's night attack, if he hadn't dealt with it in time, I'm afraid that the battle damage of the Wei army would have been even greater.
After this incident, Cao Hong looked at Sun Li a little differently.
But despite this, it cannot change Cao Hong's pessimistic mentality.
"The back road of our army has been blocked by the Han army, what kind of person is Mi Yang, since he has led the army to block the back road, how can he let our army break out?"
Cao Hong's response was full of affirmation.
And this is also the reason why some generals laughed at Sun Li.
If someone else leads the army to block the back road, it is Mi Yang who personally leads the army to sit in Yangping Pass.
Mi Yang's prestige directly made most of the Wei generals lose the idea of breaking out.
After hearing Cao Hong's response, Sun Li also had to say that Cao Hong's idea was right.
But he didn't want to break through from the back at all.
Sun Li bowed to Cao Hong again and said, "I sent scouts out to investigate a few days ago, and the back road of our army has been blocked by a large number of Han troops, and the number of observations is at least tens of thousands.
Mi Yang fought fiercely in Liangzhou for a year, and his troops suffered a lot of losses, so where did he get these tens of thousands of troops?
There is no doubt that it should be Yizhou. ”
The current territory of the Han Dynasty is so large, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers in Jingzhou, it is impossible for Jingzhou to mobilize tens of thousands of troops to rescue Miyang.
In addition, since Mi Yang can let the tens of thousands of soldiers block the back road of the Wei army, they must be elite soldiers.
Based on these two basic inferences, after excluding Jingzhou, it is naturally not difficult to guess the origin of the tens of thousands of troops that appeared out of thin air in Mi Yang's hands.
And Cao Zhen's sudden defeat may be directly related to this.
"Although I don't know why the Yizhou reinforcements were able to bypass our army and reach Liangzhou.
But no matter how quickly Yizhou's national strength recovers, after drawing tens of thousands of troops to aid Liangzhou, how many troops can Zhuge Liang have?
I deduced that the Han army camp outside the Sword Pavilion might just be Zhuge Liang's bluff.
The hussar general might as well gather the strength of the whole army and storm the Han army camp outside the Sword Pavilion, as long as our army can break through the camp here, the passage of our army to Yinping can be opened. ”
After Sun Li finished talking about his plan, he looked at Cao Hong with expectation.
He hoped that Cao Hong would adopt the current one, the only way to save tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Unexpectedly, before Cao Hong could respond, Yang Fu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke:
"What about the evidence?"
These three cold words directly made the atmosphere of the big tent, which was a little warm, suddenly fall silent again.
Yes, what about the evidence?
Everything Sun Li said sounded very reasonable at first glance, but there was no specific intelligence argument, that is, what Sun Li said, it was all his personal speculation.
And it is normal for Yang Fu to suddenly issue this sentence.
His own job is the history of Liangzhou Thorn, and the first half of his life was mainly responsible for handling government affairs.
This kind of resume has allowed Yang Fu to develop a cautious and intelligence-oriented character.
After all, every decree affects the lives of many people, and if there is no certain amount of information to base it on, how dare they rashly issue it.
Sun Li was choked by Yang Fu, and he couldn't answer Yang Fu's question.
He understood the reason why Yang Fu asked this sentence, but he also didn't think he was wrong.
How can war be confused with government affairs?
Government affairs are mainly based on seeking stability, but war, especially when the situation is critical, is often won by taking risks and making keen judgments.
Sun Li didn't dare to say that what he said was necessarily right, but in the current situation, his strategy was very necessary to try.
Sun Li didn't ask Yang Fu to understand him, he looked at Cao Hong, who had not spoken, he felt that Cao Hong would understand him.
Unexpectedly, after listening to Yang Fu's rhetorical question, facing Sun Li's expectant gaze, Cao Hong shook his head after thinking for a long time and said:
"It's too risky to do."
Sun Li was directly angry at Cao Hong's answer.
Too adventurous?
If the current Wei army does not take risks, how can it seek a glimmer of life?
Sun Li wanted to persuade again, but Cao Hong directly and decisively vetoed again: "There is no need to discuss this matter again!" ”
Cao Hong's attitude directly made Sun Li disheartened.
He looked around at all the Wei generals in the tent, and saw that no one dared to come out to speak with him, and Sun Li felt extremely ironic.
"Wait, they are all sinners of Great Wei!"
After putting down this sentence, Sun Li walked out of the big tent angrily.
Sun Li's disrespectful behavior made Cao Hong angry, but thinking of his previous exploits, Cao Hong generously forgave Sun Li's faux pas.
As for what Sun Li said before leaving, Cao Hong didn't care.
Does what Sun Li said make sense?
Of course there is.
But Cao Hong had a reason to refuse.
The first reason is what he said, Sun Li's plan is too risky.
Cao Hong is no longer young.
When he was young, he followed Cao Cao to fight in all directions, but he didn't know what happened to him.
But in his old age, he had too much.
People's enthusiasm and ambition will change with age and how much they have.
The second reason is that he looked at the Wei generals who had no fighting spirit in the tent, and it took the courage to break through the siege without fear of death, but do these Wei generals have it now?
General Wei is still like this, what about the sergeants below?
In addition to these two reasons, there is another reason why it is not humane.
According to the current situation, tens of thousands of Wei troops are very difficult to save, but this does not mean that he Cao Hong cannot be saved.
Thinking of this, Cao Hong made a decision in his heart.
General, since you were the first to lose, then I can't be blamed for the next.
