Chapter 615: Pang Tong: Let's retreat
Liu Bei originally wanted to attack Yixian, but he couldn't defeat it at all.
Being able to cross Weishui is already their biggest limit, and then there is no more, under Zhuge Liang's defense, they have no ability to continue to break through, and they are suppressed on the north bank of Weishui.
Of course, Liu Bei was not reconciled, and launched many attacks, but he did not make progress.
At the same time, he also contacted Guan Yu's side, and the results he got were similar, without any progress.
Even Guan Yu couldn't even get out of the Dasan Pass, he was suppressed outside the Dasan Pass by Ma Chao, and he attacked several times, but it was useless, he was beaten without temper, and the army was disheartened.
The only thing that can make some progress is probably Zhang Fei's side, hitting under Chang'an City, which was once considered by Liu Bei to be their only hope, and it is also the hope of the entire Yizhou, but this hope was soon broken.
Ju Yi returned from Dasanguan, rescued Chang'an, and joined forces with Zhong Xuan to repel Zhang Fei.
Even the Meridian Valley Road was broken by Ma Tie and his troops.
In desperation, Zhang Fei could only go in the direction of the valley, cross the Wugong Water and meet Liu Bei, which was a little miserable.
They planned to attack from the three paths, and they lost two in the blink of an eye, leaving only Liu Bei's praise slope, in fact, they were also half defeated, and there was no progress, as long as they were counterattacked by Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, Liu Bei also ended up defeated.
Liu Bei is still stationed on the north bank of Weishui, and they have been planning how to kill Yixian.
After Zhang Fei and Liu Bei met, they went out of the camp every day to scold.
scolded Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun over and over again.
But they were so calm that they didn't hear any invective.
scolded so much that Zhang Fei's voice was almost hoarse.
As an output, Zhang Fei, who relied on roaring, felt for the first time that his roar was very weak.
"Strategist, what should we do?"
Liu Bei asked anxiously.
Fortunately, there were Sun Quan and Cao Cao who restrained Yang Zhao, otherwise with their abilities, they would have been defeated a long time ago.
Pang Tong pondered: "On the side of Dasan Pass, we can't attack again, otherwise our forces will be almost consumed, let's let General Guan retreat!" ”
Liu Bei asked, "Then what?" ”
Pang Tong: "......"
He looked outside and saw snow falling.
The snowflakes blown by the cold wind tossed in the air for a long time before they fell.
The city tower of Yixian County in the distance loomed in the snowy environment, hazy, to take Yixian, Pang Tong thought it was not easy, and said lightly: "Zhuge Liang is not a simple person, with him stationed, it is difficult for us to make progress." ”
"And then?"
Liu Bei asked again.
Why is the performance of the military division a little weak!
It's not the same as the calm and self-confidence before.
What to do then, Pang Tong hasn't thought about it yet.
In short, it's just hard.
"Lord, just got the news that Sun Quan has completely failed, and Yangzhou has been taken by Yang Zhao." Xu Shu came in and said.
"Yang Zhao suddenly went to Yangzhou?" When Liu Bei got the news, he was shocked.
According to the previous news, Yang Zhao did not concentrate his forces to attack Yuzhou, he wanted to take Xudu, destroy Cao Cao first, and now suddenly hit Yangzhou, which was beyond many people's expectations.
This kind of false shot makes people unguardable.
Pang Tong said: "It seems that we have all been deceived by Yang Zhao, Sun Quan was destroyed, Cao Cao was repulsed in the south of Luoyang, he will not dare to go north again in a short time, I guess Yang Zhao's next plan is to deal with us, he is ready to come to Guanzhong." ”
Liu Bei hurriedly said: "What should we do?" ”
Xu Shu said: "Retreat! ”
Only retreat is the most stable and can preserve strength.
Otherwise, when Yang Zhao came, they would never be able to escape.
"Retreat?"
Liu Bei was very unwilling, and finally broke out of Guanzhong, which was considered a breakthrough, and now he is retreating, all his efforts are gone, and there are losses.
As long as it is a military dispatch, there will be losses.
Lost food and pay before the fighting, and lost troops after the fighting.
It's bad for them.
Pang Tong nodded and said: "The only way to retreat, we will retreat to Guanzhong first, and at the same time let people guard the main roads such as the Bao Slope Road to prevent Yang Zhao from taking advantage of the situation to enter, if the lord does not want to retreat, we are also willing to accompany the lord to fight to the death." ”
If Yang Zhao comes, the death battle will really die.
Liu Bei felt a headache, and reluctantly agreed: "Retreat!" ”
"We have to retreat in secret, otherwise we will be discovered by Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, and we will definitely bring troops to chase after us!"
Pang Tong advised: "In our military camp, there is so much cooking smoke every day as usual, and the military flag is not chaotic or reduced, and we continue to create momentum and confuse Zhuge Liang's judgment." Starting this evening, cross the Weishui in batches and enter the Bao Slope Road. ”
Liu Bei said weakly: "Then do what the military advisor says." ”
Xu Shu added: "The lord can evacuate first, but General Zhang has to stay for the time being, and often go out of the camp to walk twice, as long as the enemy's scouts find that General Zhang is still there, they can't think that the lord has already evacuated." ”
Zhang Fei said loudly: "As long as I can help my eldest brother, it's no problem for me to do anything." ”
Liu Bei was moved: "Yide, good brother!" ”
It is dangerous to stay and leave the last group, and if others can, Liu Bei is reluctant to let Zhang Fei stay.
Pang Tong said again: "Since you have decided to leave, the lord can make arrangements as soon as possible." ”
All the arrangements were made in secret.
Liu Bei was in the first batch of retreating teams, first crossed Weishui, returned to the valley, and at the same time various scouts were constantly sent out to check whether the retreat was normal, whether there was an ambush, and so on.
——
Night.
Zhuge Liang got the news of the scout, and said to himself: "The smoke in the Shu camp is normal, the military flag is not chaotic, the momentum is not reduced, there is nothing special, Liu Bei doesn't seem to have left yet." ”
These are the daily work of the scouts, and after they find out the situation, they will send it back to Zhuge Liang for analysis.
"Kong Ming is so sure that Liu Bei will retreat?"
Zhao Yun asked.
Zhuge Liang said confidently: "I will definitely retreat!" We have already gotten the news that the lord defeated Sun Quan, Liu Bei must have also gotten it, Cao Cao was also repelled by the lord, and now only Liu Bei is still in a stalemate with us in Guanzhong, Pang Tong will not be unable to analyze, the next step for the lord is to come to Guanzhong. ”
Zhao Yun listened, nodded slightly, and said, "Liu Bei really can only retreat." ”
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "But I don't want him to retreat, if I can take Liu Bei before the lord arrives, then the lord is here, and we can enter Yizhou, I have asked the shadow to contact Zhong Yuanjun and General Ju and them to do it together." ”
He personally led the troops, and after fighting a few battles, Zhuge Liang matured a lot.
The various analyses and arrangements are more rigorous than before, and all aspects of the battlefield have been taken into account.
Progress is fast.
Just as his words fell, the shadow man happened to come in and said, "Mr. Zhuge , Zhong Envoy Jun has news." ”
Zhuge Liang took the letter, opened it and read it for a while, and said with great joy: "General Zhao, we can attack Liu Bei's military camp as soon as tomorrow evening, but I don't know if the current Liu Bei has secretly evacuated, if so, I'm afraid that he has already come to the valley." ”
