Thorn Yang is the main road from Xinye to Wancheng, but the main road does not represent the only passage.

If you want to lead the army north from Xinye, there is actually a passage. That passage took the path through Nirvana.

However, compared to taking the road of Thorn Yang, there are many swamps and mountains and forests near Nieyang, which is very difficult for the army to march.

Therefore, when Liu Biao was alive, he occasionally launched several Northern Expeditions in his life, all of which took the road of capturing Thornyang.

After repeating it several times, it seems that Thorn Yang has become the only way for Xinye to Wancheng.

This once became the common cognition of the successive Wancheng guards and Jingzhou guards. This cognition cannot be wrong, after all, the geographical disadvantage of Niyang is clearly placed there.

But this realization has become Zhang Fei's breakthrough.

Perhaps for ordinary generals, it is a dangerous thing to take the road from Nieyang to Wancheng.

But looking at Zhang Fei's use of soldiers in his life, isn't he a famous general who is good at adventurous?

The road outside Niyang is difficult to walk, but it is not impossible to walk, which is enough for Zhang Fei.

Nieyang is currently under the control of Cao Wei, and the terrain disadvantage of Nieyang also makes Nieyang Chang full of confidence.

In the place where the birds don't, will there still be a Han army? Anyway, this kind of thing has never happened for more than ten years.

The convention of more than ten years is very terrible, so terrible that Nieyang Chang did not follow Sima Yi's instructions at all, and sent scouts to explore around the county every day.

So when Nieyangchang, who was enjoying the singing and dancing in the county, learned that a large number of Han troops appeared outside the county, he was so frightened that even the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground.

"How is that possible?"

Under the violent shock in his heart, Niyangchang could only repeat this sentence in a daze.

But perhaps there was still a trace of luck in his heart, and in the end, accompanied by the county lieutenant, Nieyang went up to the city with trembling steps to investigate the enemy's situation.

But it's okay not to investigate, when he saw that there were really waves of Han troops under the county seat, the fear on Nieyangchang's face became more and more intense.

And as the Han army below dispersed, after Nieyang Chang saw a majestic military general standing under the city with a gun on horseback, the fear in his heart instantly reached its peak.

The male general was eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, and a swallow's jaw and tiger whiskers, and after the military general saw the appearance of Nieyang Chang under the city, he immediately held a gun to the sky and shouted:

"But I still remember Zhang Yidehu!"

This loud shout was like a huge thunder, and it was like a galloping horse, which directly frightened Nieyang Chang and staggered to the ground.

Nieyang Chang is a scholar of Jingzhou, and whoever is a scholar of Jingzhou, who has never heard the sentence of Zhang Fei who broke the bridge according to the water: "If you are Zhang Yide, you can also come to die together!" "What?

Originally, Chief Niyang only thought that ten thousand enemies like Zhang Fei would only exist in legends, but when the legend in his heart appeared in front of his eyes, how many people in the world could keep calm?

You must know that during the Battle of Changbanpo that year, tens of thousands of Wei army iron horsemen were so frightened by Zhang Fei's shouting that they didn't dare to move, not to mention the Nieyang Chang of a district!

Although in recent years, whenever people in the world mention the Han Dynasty, they will inevitably mention Mi Yang, as if Mi Yang single-handedly forged the glory of the current Han Dynasty.

But in fact, everyone in the world clearly remembers in their hearts that the earliest legend of Ji Han was made by three brothers with a knife and a shot!

The fall of Nieyang Chang frightened the surrounding county soldiers.

Originally, after seeing a large number of Han troops appear under the city, the county soldiers in the city were already very panicked.

Now they saw that Nieyang Chang was frightened to the ground by the enemy general who had just appeared, which made their army even more confused.

The county lieutenant on the side wanted to help Nieyang Chang up, let him cheer up, and command the county soldiers to defend the city.

But after hearing the county lieutenant's request, Chief Niyang pushed the county lieutenant away as if he had heard some big joke.

The lieutenant of Nieyang County was born in Orion, and the county soldiers in the city have never been out of Nieyang City for almost their lives, they don't know who Zhang Yide is, let alone what kind of deeds Zhang Yide has.

But they don't know, but Niyang Chang does!

The crowd on the city wall explained the truth that the ignorant are fearless, but after taking a deep breath, Niyang Chang made a decision in an instant.

"Open the gates."

Chief Niyang's decision made the county lieutenant's eyes widen.

He couldn't believe that Chief Niyang, who had always respected him, would make such a decision. Isn't this treason?

Looking at the shocked eyes of the county lieutenant, Nieyang said in a deep voice: "Back then, I was also Hanchen. ”

After saying this, Chief Neyang directly crossed the county lieutenant and gave the order to open the city gate.

Although the county soldiers in the city were also shocked by the order of the chief of Niyang, because of the prestige of the chief of Niyang, the county soldiers still quickly and faithfully carried out the order of the chief of Niyang.

Nieyang Chang, who stood up again, listened to the sound of the city gate slowly opening, and his face was full of bitterness.

The real reason why he wanted to open the city gate and surrender was not because of the words "Hanchen back then" on his mouth, but because he knew that with the current situation, Nieyang City could not be defended.

The defenders of Nieyang City were county soldiers, and their combat effectiveness could not be compared with the regular army of the Han army.

Even the poor Nieyang City does not even have a moat, and the city walls are even lower.

Nieyang Chang thought that he was not a great talent, and there was no way to defend Nieyang County under Zhang Fei's onslaught under such weak conditions.

If the result must not be maintained, then why try it?

He was first the guardian of Niyang, and then the courtier of Great Wei!

Zhang Fei below watched the city gate slowly open, and a smile appeared on his face.

Although in the face of a small city like Nieyang, he didn't need to spend too much effort if he wanted to capture it, and it was naturally best to avoid casualties as much as possible.

And with the opening of the gate of Nieyang, a fact was also formed unconsciously.

Since then, there has been no barrier between Zhang Fei and Wancheng. ...

Sima Yi's reaction speed is not unfast. His military orders were not indecisive.

After learning that Zhang Fei was likely to attack Wancheng by surprise, many things gradually became clear in Sima Yi's heart.

Zhang Fei has a map, and Sima Yi naturally has it.

At this moment, Sima Yi had already expected where Zhang Fei would choose to march from.

Because he was worried about the safety of Nieyang, Sima Yi kept sending envoys to Nieyang when he led his army to Wancheng.

But before the envoy to Nieyang returned, a news from Wancheng made Sima Yi's heart fall into an ice cave.

Dai Ling, the defender of Wancheng, reported urgently: A large number of Han troops appeared hundreds of miles away from Wancheng, and the number of Han troops was at least more than 20,000.

This news undoubtedly directly proves that Sima Yi's previous worries are true.

Zhang Fei really found another way, bypassing Jianyang and directly leading the army to attack Wancheng! When he realized this, Sima Yi kept urging his subordinates to speed up their efforts to Wancheng to help.

Although Sima Yi left Wancheng before leaving, he left 5,000 Wei troops in Wancheng.

Wancheng City is high and thick and has 5,000 Wei troops garrisoned, even if Zhang Fei leads more than ten times the troops, it is difficult to capture Wancheng in a short time.

But what if?

If Wancheng is lost in his own hands, so that the Han army may threaten Luoyang, no matter how deep his connections in the court are, Cao Rong will definitely not spare himself.

Under the eagerness in his heart, Sima Yi directly ordered the whole army to abandon their baggage and return to Wancheng lightly.

In the case of abandoning the baggage, the speed of the Wei army increased a lot.

Originally, it took five days to rush back to Wancheng, but it only took Sima Yi three days to rush back to Wancheng.

After Sima Yi led the Wei army back to Wancheng, the scouts he sent reported something.

In the west of Wancheng, there is a large area of Han army military camps.

And in the same way, in that Han army barracks, Zhang Fei's general flag was also planted everywhere.

Sima Yi knew that in the Han army camp outside Wancheng, Zhang Fei was really there.

Sure enough, before Sima Yi led the army to continue to approach Wancheng, Zhang Fei, who had detected the direction of Sima Yi's march in advance, led tens of thousands of Han troops to intercept Sima Yi's only way back to Wancheng in advance.

If Sima Yi wanted to lead his army back to Wancheng desperately, the Wei army he led and the Han army led by Zhang Fei would definitely have an encounter on the halfway.

But after learning that Zhang Feiqin led the Han army to block the road, Sima Yi directly ordered the whole army to camp on the spot and not rush forward.

The Wei army suddenly stopped advancing, which was unexpected by Zhang Fei.

Just as he didn't expect Sima Yi to lead the army back so quickly.

According to the time calculation, Sima Yi was able to rush back to Wancheng in such a short time, and almost on the first day outside Jianyang City, he saw through his suspicious plan.

This made Zhang Fei a little jealous of Sima Yi in his heart. It seems that Sima is a thief, and he should not be underestimated.

If he hadn't been the attacking party, he would naturally have the initiative in the war, and he wouldn't have been so easy to deceive Sima Yi at the beginning.

But no matter what, Sima Yi was lured out of Wancheng after all.

And as Sima Yi expected, as long as Zhang Fei personally led the troops, it was impossible for him to live in peace.

So when Sima Yi ordered the whole army to set up camp, Zhang Fei directly led tens of thousands of Han troops to call for battle outside Sima Yi's caustic camp.

In the face of Zhang Fei's insults, Sima Yi always adhered to the strategy of sticking to it.

Although the camp was still being built, many of the defenses were not yet in place.

However, the fifteen-thousand-strong Wei army array, with its rudimentary fortifications, no matter how brave Zhang Fei was, it was impossible to break through in a short time.

Sima Yi was not wrong as expected.

Zhang Fei ordered people to insult outside the Wei army's camp for a while, and after seeing that no one in the Wei army's camp came out to fight, he also led tens of thousands of Han troops to camp directly opposite the Wei army's camp.

Zhang Fei's purpose was very simple, that is, to prevent Sima Yi's Wei army from entering Wancheng.

When the Han army began to set up camp on the opposite side, the Wei generals began to be impatient.

Zhang Fei's purpose is so simple that everyone can see it.

And Wancheng is close at hand but you can't enter, and Wancheng is so important, how can this not make you Wei General impatient?

But in the face of the impatience of the generals, Sima Yi patiently explained:

"Although Zhang Fei's troops are dangerous, he led the army to attack Wancheng, but the danger is dangerous after all.

The terrain outside Jianyang City is difficult and difficult to walk, Zhang Fei may be able to lead elite soldiers to cross it with his personal prestige, and most of the civilian auxiliary soldiers who can transport grain are old and weak, how can he do this?

According to my expectations, the thief army's food supply will not be half a month, and there will be big trouble.

In the case of the unstable grain road, no matter how brave Zhang Fei was, no matter how tricky he was, he had no choice but to retreat in the end. ”

Sima Yi told the generals what was in his heart.

The reason why Sima Yi wanted to go down to the village was not only to avoid Zhang Fei's edge, but also because he expected that Zhang Fei's strategy of bypassing Lu Nieyang to attack Wancheng could only have a temporary effect, not a long-term success.

After all, Niryang's terrain conditions are heavenly structures, and it is impossible to change, otherwise he would not have neglected to take precautions against Niryang before.

Since it can be deduced that there will be problems with Zhang Fei's grain and grass transportation, why should he be in a hurry?

Moreover, when he led his army to withdraw to Wancheng, he had already sent a messenger to contact Yuzhou Assassin Shi Jia Kui.

I thought that Jia Kui would lead the state soldiers to support soon. At that time, the situation between the two armies will change.

Although he is a poor chess player, it does not mean that he has no strength to fight from now on.

As long as the two important cities of Wancheng and Jianyang are not lost, then the situation in Nanyang County is still under his control.

Sima Yi is very confident in this.

After listening to Sima Yi's explanation, the generals also felt that what Sima Yi said made sense, and they gradually calmed down their impatience.

After arranging everything, Sima Yi looked at the Han army camp under construction with a calm and calm mood.

At the beginning of the war, he originally had the intention of cutting off one of the Han's arms.

But what Sima Yi didn't expect was that this arm of the big man could be stretched so long!

When Emperor Wu was alive, he once commented on Zhang Fei, saying that although Zhang Fei was impatient, if he played normally, he might be one of the most difficult enemies to deal with.

Now it seems that Emperor Wu's evaluation is really correct.

Luckily, it's not too bad.

After giving the order to set up camp, Zhang Fei looked at the Wei army camp not far away, and a little smile appeared on his rough face.

Sima Xiaothief is indeed not to be underestimated, and he is a good opponent like Zhang Bu.

But it's a pity, who said that his purpose was to attack Wancheng? Soon after, Zhang Fei summoned a messenger.

He handed over a letter that he had written long ago into the hands of the messenger, and asked him to return to Shinno Castle as quickly as possible. 33

Sima Yi seems to have forgotten that he still has 20,000 Han troops that have not yet been used.

A few days later, while Sima Yi was waiting for Zhang Fei to withdraw from the army, a shocking piece of news reached him.

Thorny Sun is lost!

When he first learned the news, Sima Yi's face showed an incredible look.

How can it be?!

Sima Yi immediately grabbed the messenger's sleeve and asked him sharply, "There are thousands of elite soldiers stationed in Jianyang, how can it be lost!" ”

Although Sima Yi withdrew all the reinforcements to rescue Wancheng, there were thousands of elite soldiers in the city of Jianyang all the time.

As a suspicious army, the Han army outside Jianyang City will definitely not have too many troops, and they will not take the initiative to attack Jianyang.

In this case, how could Thorn Yang fall?

Zhang Fei still came to scold outside Wancheng every day, and who led the army to capture Jianyang?

Sima Yi felt that the whole person was not good.

Some people died, but not completely......
