Chapter 934: Swap
Sima Yi was really glad that he had rushed to Luyang three days earlier than expected.
Really, if he hurried at the normal marching speed, he didn't have to wait for him to rush to Luyang, this Luyang had already been broken by Shu thieves.
And when he rushed to Luyang and heard Wang Lingxing rush to tell him that he could go out of the city to attack the Shu thieves, the sweat on Sima Yi's back came down.
I'm glad I came early.
Is this Wang Ling lacking heart, how can Zhang Xi and Zhuge Liang be at odds with each other.
Don't you Wang Ling know that these two people have had similar tempers since they met, and they almost wore a pair of pants if they were good, and even the two of them had just married their children? !
Can these two not get along?!
When Wang Ling faced Sima Yi's questioning, he was also dumbfounded, blinked his eyes, and didn't react for a long time. Who knows, when the two of them got married, they didn't invite me to participate!!
Yes, Wang Ling really didn't know that Zhuge Liang and Zhang Xi were sons and daughters.
On the one hand, limited by the efficiency of information dissemination in this era, up to this time, the matter of Zhang Xi's daughter marrying Zhuge Liang slowly spread from Guanzhong to the Central Plains, but it was also a gossip, which was limited to the teahouse Chu Pavilion.
And Wang Ling himself is still very clean, it is impossible for him to go to those places without trouble, plus in the past half a year, Wang Ling has been busy with military affairs, busy with military warfare, and has not heard such rumors and legends, which is normal.
On the other hand, the detailed report in the army did mention this matter, and the transmission speed was much faster than that of the people, and Sima Yi in Luoyang had already received the information about this matter, and Sima Yi had already known about it.
But the problem is that Sima Yi really doesn't think that this information is a high-value thing, and this kind of open-faced thing will spread all over the world sooner or later, so Sima Yi really didn't send this information to Wang Ling, who is in Xuchang.
The official couldn't get specific information, and the folk rumors Wang Ling didn't have time to inquire about him, so he didn't know about it until now.
Sima Yi was also a little dumbfounded, he really didn't expect that Wang Ling really didn't know about the marriage between the Zhuge family and the Zhang family.
Well, even if you don't know about this, but the connections of the commander of the enemy army, as the commander of the first army, you should always know, right?!
Zhang Xi and Zhuge Liang, even if they did not form a family, they had already sent back information from their work, saying that because they were very compatible, the relationship between the two had always been good. You Wang Ling should know this information, right?!
Wang Ling really knows this information, but the problem is. This information was already from seven or eight years ago.
Now do you know what the relationship between these two is?!
Moreover, the two of them are both ministers of Tuogu, but one controls the political situation in the court, one is above 10,000 people, and the other is transferred back and forth and out of the town. Are you sure that there really isn't any conflict between these two?!
Thinking about it normally, how can there be such a toss back and forth with one's political allies?!
Look at our own side, Chen Qun's relationship with Cao Xiu was still very good, but now in the DPRK, the most resolute responsibility for demanding that Cao Xiu be severely punished for defeat, isn't it him Chen Qun!!
As Cao Xiu's friend, Wang Ling received many letters from Cao Xiu during this time, complaining to himself about this problem.
There is no certain saying for an alliance between politicians.
So, it's really not that he Wang Ling is brain-dead, on the one hand, the information is incomplete, and on the other hand, Wang Ling also has his own reasons.
Sima Yi was not lightly angry, he really wanted to refute Wang Ling, but for a while, Sima Yi really didn't know where to refute. Because what Wang Ling said is really reasonable.
Not to mention anything else, he is also a minister of Tuogu, and he Sima Yi faintly feels that he seems to have been alienated from politicians by the other three ministers of Tuogu in the court, and he has always given priority to his own interests.
Okay, just when Wang Ling has his own reasons, but where can you see that Zhuge Liang doesn't know how to use soldiers?!
Wang Lingxin said that there is still something to see, when you turn around, Zhuge Liang led the troops to attack the city once, and you will understand it all, and then Wang Ling was slapped in the face.
When Zhuge Liang attacked the city next time, he carried a large number of siege equipment, and the sergeants were even more strict in law and high morale, and it seemed that they were not affected by any bombing camp at all.
The rhythm of the attack is wave after wave, continuously impacting the Luyang city wall, and even with the help of siege equipment, it has been able to climb the Luyang city wall and fight for the city wall.
As for the counter-attacking troops sent by Wang Ling to burn the siege equipment, they had just left the city gate not long before they were shot back by a dense number of arrows, and they couldn't get out of the gate at all.
Really, if it weren't for the fact that there were a full 40,000 troops stationed inside and outside Luyang City now, Wang Ling would have hurriedly demolished the east wall and made up the west wall, and fell into a comprehensive defense of the city.
This is not knowing how to use troops, this is simply a veteran who has accumulated years to command operations!!
At this time, where could Wang Ling not know that he was almost a little bit wronged by that Zhuge villager!!
As for Zhuge Liang, there is no way to do it at this time.
Sima Yi led his troops to Luyang earlier than he expected, and the defenders in Luyang City already had 40,000.
And with Sima Yi's ability, Zhuge Liang didn't think that his little trick could deceive him, so he simply didn't continue to engage in the previous small actions, but camped still, waiting for Zhang Xi to send the built siege equipment over.
In the past ten days, more than 30,000 people in Zhang Xi's entire army have not attacked the city, and they have all been arranged by Zhang Xi to build siege equipment.
Now that you've finished building, let's use it directly.
Sima Yi's arrival in Luyang is not a bad thing.
As long as they use a strong attack to nail Sima Yi to the front line in Luyang, then Wei Yan's partial division, as long as they break through Pubanjin and enter Hongnong County, with the cooperation of Hongnong Yang, there is really hope to go straight to Luoyang and fight down.
Zhuge Liang gave up the idea of quickly occupying Luyang and waved his army to attack.
And Zhang Xi's side did not just watch the drama anymore, but also cooperated with Zhuge Liang and began to launch an attack on the south gate of Luyang.
The west gate of Luyang is guarded by Wang Ling, and the south gate of Luyang, no need to ask, it must be Sima Yi guarding.
It was at this time that Zhang Xi officially understood how difficult Sima Yi, who was considered Zhuge Liang's lifelong enemy in later generations.
Yes, don't look at Sima Yi when he faced Zhuge Liang, it seemed that he had been pressed and beaten, if it weren't for the national strength advantage of Wei, he wouldn't have been able to stop Zhuge Liang's attack at all In fact, this can't be wrong, but it is also a kind of misunderstanding that generalizes.
King Sima Xuan took the smartest and most appropriate way to deal with the threat of Shu Han.
This is not a reflection of his poor level, but a reflection of his grasp of the current situation and his great sensitivity to the overall situation.
After all, he really commanded the battle with similar troops, and he Sima Yi didn't try it. The battle of Lucheng made people fight a first three thousand.
Since you can't fight hard, why fight hard with you, there can be other easier ways to win, why not?!
Sima Yi is a person who can recognize reality very clearly, and he is also a person who has a very clear understanding of himself, which is the key reason why Sima Yi was able to survive Zhuge Liang.
As for Cao Shuang's straw bag, to be honest, it is the easiest thing to deal with, in the Gao Pingling Incident, the most reflective of Sima Yi's level is to reach an exchange of interests with Cao Wei's martial artists and families in a short period of time, so that they can support Sima to come to power.
All in all, Sima Xuan Wang is really not as described in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he is embarrassed when he meets Zhuge Liang, and he can only abuse rookies like Ma Jian and Cao Shuang, at least Zhang Xi's feelings are completely different now.
The defenders of the south gate of Luyang, under the command of Sima Yi, were very tightly defended.
Even if Zhang Xi had enough siege equipment to help, it would be difficult to find Sima Yi's defensive weakness in the attack.
On the west gate, Zhuge Liang could find an opportunity to climb the city wall, but on the south gate, Zhang Xi didn't find a chance at all.
For a moment, Zhang Xi even had such a thought - why not exchange with Zhuge Liang of Ximen and let him deal with this fateful opponent?!
After all, Zhuge Liang was really able to win Sima Yi in history!!
In the same way, Sima Yi on the upper floor of the South Gate City is now frowning, paying attention to the development of the entire situation.
Zhang Xi on the other side really deserves to be a famous general in the world, and he is really not so easy to deal with.
The law in the army was orderly, the soldiers were rigorous, and while attacking, they were always on guard against the defenders' counterattack on Sima Yi's troops looking for an opportunity to go out of the city and burn the siege equipment.
It's really an opponent that won't be easy to deal with.
And at this time, Sima Yi was actually thinking, since Zhang Xi on the south gate is so difficult, why don't you change with Wang Ling of the West Gate and deal with Zhuge Liang by yourself? !
After all, compared to Zhang Xi, a famous general in the world, Zhuge Liang is famous for governing the world, maybe he is not as difficult as Zhang Xi in terms of using soldiers? !
In this way, three days after pondering each other, Zhang Xi and Sima Yi met again at the West Gate of Luyang!!
What the hell is this called?!
