XLVII. Armistice

……

Three days later, Wang Gui's army arrived at Suoyun Pass.

The first thing this Shuzhong veteran did when he arrived in the gate was to shout at the school: "Zhu Tong, come out to Lao Tzu!" ”

Zhu Tong couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, and timidly came to Wang Gui and arched his hand and said, "General Wang, the last general ......"

Without waiting for Zhu Tong to finish speaking, Wang Gui rolled up his sleeves and smashed his head and face at him: "You bastard!" The faces of tens of millions of soldiers and civilians in Shu have made you lose their faces!

Do you know what the people of the counties have said about us along the way of General Ben? said that we are not worthy of being Shu people, but only worthy of being dogs with our tails between our legs!

Why do you want to run, tell Lao Tzu, why do you want to run! You explain it to me! ”

Wang Gui opened the bow left and right, and Zhu Tong, who slapped straight after slap, was dizzy, and after a while, his cheeks were already swollen.

When Wang Gui's own soldiers saw this, they immediately stepped forward and pulled him away: "General, don't fight, please don't fight, if you fight again, you will die." ”

Wang Chang also stepped forward to dissuade: "Old General Wang, although General Zhu is at fault, fortunately, he is lost, and it is he who brought reinforcements to block the attack of the Chu army." ”

Wang Gui gasped for breath, glared at the overwhelmed Zhu Tong with extreme anger, shook off everyone and pointed at him and scolded:

"Let me tell you, you escaped from the battle, and I didn't get rid of my hatred after killing you a hundred times, and when the Yu Assassin Shi arrived, you explained it to him yourself, and the faces of the soldiers and civilians in Shu were all lost to you, alas!"

After dropping a sentence, Wang Gui sat aside in annoyance, and soon thought of something, looked up at Wang Chang and asked, "By the way, what's your name?" ”

Wang Chang immediately stood upright, slapped his left chest with a fist with his right hand, and said loudly: "The fourth and sixth graduate of the Xia Jingwu Academy, Wang Chang!" ”

Wang Gui nodded: "It's very imposing, young man, by the way, how did you hold on for so many days and not let the Chu army conquer it, aren't you afraid?" ”

Wang Chang replied: "Relying on the terrain, holding the heart of death, and guarding the land of the Han Dynasty is the duty of our Han army!" ”

When Wang Gui heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then stood up and rushed to Zhu Tong again: "See, a student is more ambitious than you, Waterma......"

Wang Chang hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Wang Gui: "Don't fight, General Wang, we can understand General Zhu's feelings, after all, one thousand against one hundred thousand, no one has the confidence to hold the ......"

After listening to Wang Chang's words, Wang Gui had to point to Zhu Tong: "You, you really should study hard with other young people." ”

"The general's lesson is that the last general is also very annoyed." Zhu Tong bowed his head in shame.

After appeasing Wang Gui's emotions, Wang Chang took the initiative to suggest to him to launch a counterattack on Yongzhou City.

However, Wang Gui sighed, patted Wang Chang's shoulder and said, "Why don't I want to? But you are still young, and it will be difficult to fight Yongzhou City in a short time. ”

Wang Chang was very puzzled: "General Wang, why is this?" The thief army has not gained a firm foothold, and now is a good time to counterattack. ”

Wang Gui shook his head and said: "You should know that all the elites of our Shu army have been transferred to Huqiaobao to defend the Bosu people, and they are more than enough to defend with only the soldiers of various counties, but they are expected to attack the city and plunder the land.

I'm afraid that I have to take hundreds of thousands of people to fill it, Shu has just recovered some vitality, and I really can't stand such a toss, so I can only slowly figure it out.

Don't laugh at us, I believe that even if Your Majesty knew the current situation of Shu State, he would not agree to send troops to Chu State at such a time.

Now that Xuanwu Pass has been detained by millions of Hu Nu, and then opening two battlefields at this time, it will only make this war continue endlessly, and it is still those innocent people who suffer. ”

Wang Chang didn't understand: "Because of this, Yongzhou should be taken back, Yongzhou is the southern gateway of Shu, once it is locked......"

Wang Gui stopped him from continuing: "I understand what you said, Yu Tingshi understands, and Your Majesty must also understand, but have you ever thought about it?

Yongzhou is such an important place, is it an accident that the Chu army can conquer it so easily? They are ready for long-term defense, and Yongzhou is not far away.

At this time, if you fight again, the Chu army that remains in Qingzhou will continue to assemble in Yongzhou City, what kind of situation will be formed at that time, have you thought about it? ”

I have to say that Jiang is still old and spicy, although Wang Chang is brave in battle, but after all, he has just graduated from the military academy, and in terms of strategic vision, he is far from being able to compare with a veteran like Wang Gui.

"If you want to crack this situation, you need two points, first, General Wu's Jingzhou Legion has completed its training, and second, Meng Heng's new army trained in Jiangnan has taken shape.

At that time, the three-way army will come out together, so that the thief army will not be able to take care of the beginning and the end, and the battle will be decided, Wang Chang, you are a famous general, but there is still a lot to learn. ”

After listening to Wang Gui's words, Wang Chang was also quite touched, so he had to suppress the hot blood in his body.

"In addition, the defensive position is far greater than the attack, taking advantage of the terrain of the city defense and consuming the strength of the thief army is also a good choice, and the history of the assassination will arrive in two days, why don't you talk to him, I think you will understand a lot of truths."

After Wang Gui finished speaking, he went to settle the army.

Today's remarks benefited Wang Chang a lot, and then he recalled that those veteran instructors in the military academy often told him that theory can only be confirmed through practice, which is so reasonable.

At this time, a soldier came to report: "Report ~ General Wang, the Chu army has sent an armistice agreement, please transfer it to Yu Thorn Shi." ”

Wang Gui took the armistice agreement, and after a cursory glance, he immediately said to his own soldiers: "Prepare the horse, this general is going to see Yu Tingshi." ”

……

The battle of Suoyun Pass finally came to an end, and as a result of this battle, Yongzhou fell, and Fa Ying completed the established strategy, but also lost 6,000 troops, which is not a heavy price.

These 6,000 people were completely caused by Fa Ying's arbitrariness, but now that Yongzhou is in his hands and Chu State finally has strategic depth, Fa Yang feels that the price paid is still worth it.

As for the Shu army, Zhu Tong should have been beheaded because he escaped from the battle, but Nian interceded with Wang Gui, Wang Chang and others, and because he was lost and returned to stabilize the situation, he was only removed from his official position, and Suoyun Guan will be temporarily replaced by Zhu Xuan.

And Guo Hou and Ning Sui, because of the bad situation, were directly escorted to Beijing after the search and arrest, and handed over to the military department for distribution.

The fighting in the south has temporarily subsided, and the war in the north is still in full swing.

However, as the battle under the Xuanwu Pass became more and more stalemate, the contradictions that had accumulated for a long time in the Mengluo army gradually began to become clear.

At the same time, in the Weiyang Palace, Liu Ce received a letter from Bai Qi, the protector of the Western Regions.

"Guishan united with the Great Food, repeatedly violated the territory of our state, the border army soldiers were unbearable, and the last general was petitioned by Yueshi, Wusun, Cheshi and other states, and wanted to send troops to Guishan, and they were punished in one battle!"
