Chapter 263: It's really good to make you afraid of Shu like a tiger
Sima Yi replied to all the generals' proposals for war, and rejected them all. In the eyes of the generals, this is completely unreasonable.
We are also a big country, with hundreds of thousands of troops, and the territory is several times that of the opposite side. The war on the other side seems to have been a little fierce in the past few years, and you have captured some territory with trickery, so it is worth your fear of becoming like this?
Shu Han has not looked at the murder in the past two years, but in fact, the scope of external expansion is not large. The three eastern counties of Wuling and Wudang are all strategic fulcrums, and only Longyou has barely increased its combat power.
In fact, now Shu Han can make all the power, and only Yizhou is alone.
And don't look at the fact that they are now pouring all their strength into the Northern Expedition, in fact, it is only 60,000 people. The most capable Ma Yan Wei Yan was dragged aside, and the only one who really came was 30,000, so when would he wait if he didn't fight at this time?
From strategy to tactics, the generals all believed that this moment should be a quick decision. After all, the soldier on the other side is Zhuge Liang, who has always been the logistics manager, what are you trying to do?
"So that you can have 5,000 elite soldiers with a certain elite, and a certain vanguard will be a general to break the Shu army!" Dai Ling asked Zhan Dao again, and his tone gradually became indignant.
"Give me all a rest! Fortify your camp and wait for the opportunity to break the enemy! But for the general's request, Sima Yi snorted coldly and blocked back without saying a word.
"The Shu army entered Kouliang Prefecture with several years of consecutive victories, how could it be so easy to break through?"
"Show me all the tightness, if the Shu army crosses our army, they will follow, and if they want to fight, they will build a camp to defend it. If I find out that someone dares to send troops without permission, it will be dealt with by military law! ”
Sima Yi's military order made all the generals angry.
"You are like a tiger! It's really a big man and a tiger! Dai Ling left angrily, not even saluting Sima Yi.
The rest of the generals were not as indignant as him, but they all left the tent with a curse. It can be seen that Sima Yi's actions have disappointed them a little.
It wasn't until the generals left that Sima Shi walked into the military tent and came to report to Sima Yi.
"Father! A certain incompetence failed to resist the offensive of the Shu army in Jincheng. ”
"Teacher, you have to remember the lesson, and there will be no next time!" Sima Yi nodded and said calmly.
It was not Sima Shi's responsibility that Jincheng failed to hold on to the specified time, but Sima Yi still chose to give two instructions. After all, he is his successor, and Sima Yi has high requirements for Sima Shi.
On the contrary, Sima Zhao is different, Sima Yi simply said two words to him without pain.
After Sima Shi returned to his life, he reported to Sima Yi everything he had seen and heard in Jincheng County. Specifically, it is mainly because Ma Tan slandered the rebellion of their father and son.
Sima Yi listened calmly throughout the whole process, and didn't say anything, just said lightly, "This Shu dog barks wildly, don't care." ”
Of course, how much Sima Yi listened to depends on the key points.
"Father, now that the Shu army has few soldiers, shouldn't it be more important to fight against it? Why didn't my father fight here? After Sima Shi finished reporting the military situation, he cautiously spied Sima Yi's face, and then asked.
"Master, I have taught you in ordinary times, the art of war is invincible first and then invincible." In response to Sima Shi's question, Sima Yi pondered for a while and chose to explain.
"Now the main force of the Shu army has been dragged in the area of Jincheng County, but Zhuge Liang still dares to bring 30,000 people to come, it must be relied on. Our army is only 10,000 more than it, which is not much of an advantage. ”
"And the Shu army came from afar to fight quickly, and now it is against the enemy in the art of war to kill people and not to people."
"Then what should we do next against the Shu army?" Sima Shi sought advice.
"This is not in a hurry, when the morale of the Shu army is exhausted, our rear hands will come out together, and we will definitely defeat this thief!"
"Backhand?"

When Sima Yi pressed the generals' requests for battle with all his might, and strengthened the camp without fighting, the Shu army also began to challenge in many directions.
The Shu army gathered all the soldiers and horses and rushed all the way to Wuwei, which was to draw Sima Yi. As a result, you ran all the way over, and then set up camp next to me as a turtle with a shrunken head.
Compared with Ma Yan, Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's provocation and insults are so civilized. It is also similar to civilized terms such as "Haoshou Horseman" and "Gray-haired Old Thief".
But even so, the generals are a little difficult to accept. In the camp, I listened to the Shu army's repeated provocations to provoke big countries with small countries, insulting strong soldiers with weak soldiers, and fighting bulls angrily.
Jia Xu proposed to face the provocation of Shu Han and Eastern Wu back then, and use a defensive strategy to consume them. But how many people would be able to opt for this strategy in that case?
As a great power, you are far superior in military power to the other side. The other party also relied on the geographical advantage to provoke repeatedly, and each time the troops were less than yours, are you really willing to choose to swallow your anger and defend?
In the future, even if they are inferior to each other, they will be indignant when they are bullied to the point of their faces, let alone now.
At least in the Wei army, except for Sima Yi, no one felt that they should endure it at this time.
The Shu army shouted and cursed outside the Wei army camp for several days, but the Wei army just didn't fight. Zhuge Liang had no choice but to take a new step to deal with this.
"Forget it, since Sima Yi plans to be a shrunken turtle, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do." Zhuge Liang waved his hand, looked at the Wei army camp opposite, and sighed.
"Prime Minister! What do we do next? Yang Yi asked.
"Pass my order and retreat thirty miles." Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes and gave the order to retreat.
Sima Yi's operation was obviously problematic, but Zhuge Liang didn't know what he wanted to do. It is easy to cut off the grain route if you continue to advance, so you still retreat for dozens of miles to watch the enemy's movements.
Under Zhuge Liang's order, the Shu army quickly pulled out the camp and retreated, and the military array and military flags were uniform. And Sima Yi didn't say a word, but also pulled out the camp to chase after him, and pressed close to the Shu army from a distance of more than ten miles.
The Shu army turned back sharply, and the Wei army immediately set up camp and set up a village, and the high base did not fight.
The Shu army withdrew again, Sima Yi chased again, and the two sides stopped for dozens of miles, and the Shu army was stunned that they did not find a chance to fight back.
Now the prime minister also understood that Sima Yi, the old boy, was planning to drag down his morale and accumulate Wei Jun's own anger value.
This old thief is planning to be a Cao Di.
Okay, I'll let you be Cao Di.
Zhuge Liang was not worried, he directly waved his feather fan, retreated to the border of Wuwei, and set up camp according to the terrain.
It was also at this time that in Xiping County in the south, Ma Tan's good news was also sent to Zhuge Liang.
"Youchang settled the battle so quickly? It just so happened that Zhang Yi stayed in Xiping County, and the young Chang quickly led the troops north to defeat Sima Yi with me! ”
