Chapter 31: Face Probing the Grass

[The prime minister surrounded Qishan to repair the city, such a posture of fighting a protracted decisive battle, Sima Yi naturally could see it.

So Sima Yi responded quickly: Guo Huai, Fei Yao, and Dailing guarded Shangqi with 4,000 people.

Then, the whole army attacked and took Zhuge Liang's four-wheeled vehicle! 】

Kong Ming looking up: ???

Others also had pupils shook: This veteran who doesn't have his hair tied up, is it Sima Yi?

And what kind of artifact is Zhuge Liang's four-wheeled vehicle?

[I'm sorry to put the wrong picture on the stage, I should say, go straight to Lucheng and aid Qishan! ]

At that time, Sima Yi's deputy Zhang He made a suggestion:

Boss, I have fought with this Zhuge villager many times, and I think you should divide your troops into Yong and Yi in case there is a change.

Sima Yi exerted the aura of being the boss: I don't want you to think, I want me to feel.

Sima Yi thinks that Comrade Xiao Zhang is still immature, wouldn't the division of troops give the Zhuge villagers a chance to break through one by one?

But why is history always strikingly similar?

Sima Yi, who went straight to Qishan in Lucheng, made the same exclamation as Cao Zhen at the beginning:

Zhuge Villager, you are not here at all! Where did you go?!

The prime minister's response was very simple, leaving his comrade Wang Ping to guard Lucheng and rushing straight to Shangqi.

It's a pity that Guo Huai has suffered enough losses, and how can he fight Zhuge Liang's main force with only 4,000 soldiers and horses?

Hang the free battle card, close the door and strictly guard against it.

The prime minister was also polite, and played his old job as a Zhuge villager: ploughing.

The knives and guns in the hands of the Ji Han soldiers were replaced with sickles, and the wheat around Shangqi was cut clean.

And put down the cruel words to Guo Huai, who was crying on the wall: Farm well, and I will come when the wheat is ripe next year!

Then Ji Hanjun was under the gaze of Sima Yijun, who was returning to the defense, and Shi Shiran retreated to Lucheng. 】

Zhang Fei was completely convinced.

He thought it was a siege to send reinforcements, but Sima Yi thought it was a decisive battle.

As a result, the military division launched a surprise attack directly on the wheat in Shangqi!

Guan Yu did not hesitate to praise:

"Sun Tzu has a saying, eat the enemy for a minute, and be my twenty bells; Avoid one stone, when I have twenty stones. ”

"Kong Ming eats the enemy, and he can be called a wise general!"

Jian Yong laughed out loud, looked at everyone and explained:

"Yong doesn't know the art of war, but he just thinks that Kong Ming led his troops to cut the wheat of the enemy city, the guards can only watch from the city wall, and the commander only looks from a distance."

"It's quite a coke."

Everyone laughed out loud together, and Liu Bei was also convinced:

"Kong Ming responds like this, he really has a bit of a famous general's demeanor."

Pang Tong also praised:

"To feed the enemy, the Wei army needs to transfer food from Guanzhong, so Kong Ming has become the party that has the initiative."

"What later generations said was active and passive is really accurate; If you take the initiative, you will have all kinds of interests, and if you are passive, you can only let others eat your own meat. ”

Kong Ming's face was strange, but in the end, he also said:

"In this way, as long as Sima Yi's army is broken, there should be a big victory and a victory."

"But so, why ......?"

The civil and military came to their senses, yes, why?

"Maybe it's because there are reinforcements in Guanzhong?" Guan Yu felt that there was only one possibility, and there was a good reason:

"This Cao Rong of the Cao thief's family is bold and calm, quite Cao Cao's style."

"And the eastern front is worry-free, and we can go all out to help Guanzhong."

When it came to the eastern front, the people of Jiangdong were silent again, and this ally ...... Does it really exist?

[After the prime minister finished cutting the wheat, Zhang He suggested again:

Boss, let's stick to Shangtai, even if we transfer food from Guanzhong, we can easily consume him!

Sima Yi said: The villager's journey back is slippery, I don't worry, I want to send him.

Sima Yi led the army to follow the prime minister, and watched the prime minister return to Lucheng and close the city gate, and did not invite him to sit down.

There is a prime minister in Lucheng, and there is a besieged Qishan in the distance to rescue, Sima Yi's choice is: climb the mountain and dig the camp, without fighting.

The prime minister made adjustments after deep thought: the troops besieging Qishan withdrew to Lucheng, and another battalion was raised in the north of the city to protect the water source.

And the rescued Qishan guards Jia Xu and Wei Ping actively asked for battle after seeing Sima Yi, but they were not allowed.

Then the two will go down in history by scolding:

The public is afraid of Shu like a tiger, and the world laughs at him!

But Sima Yi just wasn't allowed to fight, and not only that, he was also sick.

This hand is actually not difficult to guess, Wei Jun is strong, so he can store his anger without fighting.

The Prime Minister's army has a victory to boost morale, but it should not last.

So after staying up for more than two months, Sima Yi felt that it was almost over, so he waved his hand: Attack Lucheng! 】

The atmosphere in the hall became tense again, and even those who didn't understand the art of war could understand that the winner was about to be decided!

Zhang Fei still didn't quite understand: "Can't you win with Zhang He's strategy?" ”

Guan Yu shook his head: "I won't lose, but I'm ashamed." ”

Zhang Fei continued to ask: "What about directly attacking the military division?" ”

Guan Yu continued to shake his head: "Don't be ashamed, but you will lose." ”

Zhang Fei understood:

"Then if this Sima Yi loses in the attack on Lucheng......"

"Losing the war and humiliating." Wei Yan said dryly.

Liu Bei can't understand this game anymore, for example, why did he want to withdraw the siege of Qishan?

But Liu Bei believes in his brain:

"Kong Ming will win!"

[In May 231, a fierce battle took place between the prime minister and Sima Yi in the north of Lucheng.

Zhang He was ordered to attack Wang Pingbu in the south of Lucheng, and Sima Yi led the main force to attack the north of Lucheng, intending to attack on both fronts.

The prime minister was orderly and ordered Wang Ping to guard the southern camp without losing time and waiting for reinforcements.

Wei Yan, Gao Xiang, and Wu Ban faced Sima Yi.

This battle is like the Battle of Yangxi, we have no way of knowing the details, only the result.

Sima Yi's department was completely defeated, and he said that he had 3,000 armor heads, 5,000 Xuan armor, and 3,000 horn bows.

Wang Ping of Nanying was evenly matched with Zhang He, and Zhang He also retreated in time after seeing the defeat of the boss.

Such a defeat forced Sima Yi to return to Shangqi to recuperate, and Qishan City was once again besieged by the prime minister.

The entire Longyou battle situation is getting better again! 】

Kong Ming was not happy at all.

It is doomed that he failed to obtain Longyou, and under this premise, every victory he heard about would only make Kong Ming's heart ache even more.

Guan Yu relied on what he had seen and heard on the side of the Cao thief, and vaguely estimated:

"Sima Yi led an army of about 50,000, and the number of beheaded people was at least 6,000."

Wei Yan saw the truth from another angle:

"Cheng ...... Will the military division also train troops? ”

After all, the light curtain also said before that the second and third out of Qishan had a purpose to train soldiers, and it didn't seem to be very good at that time.

In addition to the difference in generals, it should be the difference in the quality of soldiers on both sides.

Liu Bei was very happy, he was right, his military division was the strongest!

Hearing Wei Yan's words, he didn't care and said: "Kong Ming still has a foot soldier now, quite stylish!" ”

Wei Yan listened curiously.

Liu Bei also noticed another name:

"Wang Ping, it's really a good general!"

"The defeat of the street pavilion is that he beat the drum to make a suspicious soldier and retreat from Zhang He."

Zhang Fei was very impressed by this general who had the same means as himself:

"This battle of Lucheng is actually against Zhang He again, and he can be regarded as an old opponent."

"If it is a street pavilion, it only refers to Wang Ping as the main general......"

Zhang Fei smacked his lips very regretfully.

Ma Liang immersed himself in copying and did not evaluate.

[At this time, Longyou fell into a stage of real competition logistics.

Because of the prime minister's previous seizure of the grain, Sima Yi's life was not easy.

Even Guo Huai was ordered to go to the local Qianghu in Longyou to collect grain.

The history book simply recorded a sentence: "King Shixuan waited for all the food"

The prime minister is about the same, the wheat of Shangqi is about to be eaten, and Longyou is still slowly recovering.

All of this takes time, and the longer it drags on, the greater the pressure on logistics.

Therefore, the prime minister even wrote to Li Yan to confide his thoughts:

Now is a critical juncture, Sima Yi on the other side is almost unable to hold on, if you are under pressure, I will cut off Sima Yi's grain channel, and you can also cultivate the land on the spot.

Who couldn't see that the situation in Longyou was very good at that time? The prime minister felt that if he gritted his teeth and persevered, Longyou could get it, and the Han family was hopeful.

Then when the prime minister was thinking, Li Yan's envoy came to the barracks:

It will rain in the sky, and I am afraid that the grain will not continue, so please return to the prime minister. 】

Liu Bei and Pang Tong spoke almost at the same time:

"There's a problem!"

Pang Tong gestured to his lord, and Liu Bei said first:

"The light curtain said before that when Cao Zhen attacked Shu, Kong Ming recruited Li Yan's soldiers, and I am afraid that he will have a personal grudge."

Everyone nodded, and they remembered it very well.

Pang Tong said more directly:

"Sending the envoy to raise it is full of suspicions."

Guan Yu also has the same sense of disobedience, but he feels even more unreasonable:

"If the news is false, what good is it with Li Yan?"

This is also what everyone wonders: what good is it for you to do this?

[Although the good situation is in front of us, although if you insist on it again, Longyou will return to Han.

But the prime minister can only withdraw from the army, after all, the consequences of no food are too serious.

Moreover, the people and miscellaneous beards of Longyou have been scraped by Guo Huai and others, and there is no food at all.

So he glanced at the Longyou who he almost got again, and the prime minister could only announce the class teacher with regret.

In the face of the retreating prime minister, Sima Yi came to the spirit, but not much.

I don't dare to move, but there is Zhang He! Beat him up!

Regarding this decision, Zhang He's heart is mostly sold by his mother.

Because first of all, it was them who defeated Lucheng, not the villagers.

Now that the prime minister has retired from the army, and even Sima Yi himself is relieved, what can you endure?

And you really think you have a chance, you Sima Yi will lead the army by yourself, what kind of ability do you have to let me rush?

But Zhang He is just a worker after all, so he can only persuade euphemistically:

Boss, it has been said in the art of war, surround three and one, and don't chase after the army.

Zhang He felt that what he had said was very clear: this is a returned army, not a defeated army.

Zhang He at this time in the history books revealed a sadness of beating workers: "He had no choice but to advance." ”

It can be seen that the risk of military generals is much higher than that of civilian officials.

Liu Ye said so many suggestions, but in the end, an emperor didn't listen or the emperor didn't accept it, and there were many official positions and a lot of money.

Changed to the military general, Zhang He's three pertinent suggestions were changed to a "last resort".

In the end, the tragic face probed into the grass and was shot by the ambushed Han army in the wooden doorway.

One account says Zhang He was shot dead on the spot, and another says he was shot in the thigh, but he died of his injuries soon after.

Zhang He's death reveals a strange smell, he is a veteran who was active from the Cao Cao era to the Cao Yi era, and he is stronger than Sima Yi in terms of military exploits and qualifications.

And the cause of his death, of course, was not just Sima Yi's convulsions. 】
