Chapter 262: The Showdown between the Advisors and the Ministers, Chang'an Changes!
Can't put it off any longer!
Sima Yi already had an understanding in his heart.
If it is delayed any longer, the situation of the Wei army will only become more and more difficult.
He immediately ordered, "The whole army is divided into three parts, and they are ready to help each other, the outer layer is the sword and shield bearers and spearmen, and the inner layer is the crossbowmen. The cavalry is cruising outside, ready to break through the enemy army formation at any time, we need to break through, we don't need to be fast, but we need to be steady! ”
Sima Yi showed excellent command skills in the face of the difficult situation of the Wei army.
He quickly ordered the army to be divided into three divisions, each with a clear orientation and tasks.
At the outermost level of the army was an elite army of sword and shield men and spearmen.
They formed a phalanx and waited for it, their shields impermeable, and their swords and spears were like a forest.
The task of this peripheral unit was to resist the onslaught of the Han army, forming a strong barrier to ensure that the troops inside were not disturbed too much.
On the inner layer, there are crossbowmen, who carry powerful crossbows and feathered arrows, ready to unleash deadly arrows.
Sima Yi understood that the shooter's firepower covers a wide range and can effectively hit the enemy, especially on a large-scale battlefield.
The cavalry was responsible for fighting fires everywhere and breaking formations, and this cavalry unit was given the task of cruising, and they could quickly maneuver around the battlefield and counterattack the enemy's flanks or backs.
Sima Yi's command arrangement took into account a variety of tactical situations, and he ensured that each unit was in the best position to make the most of their strengths.
In difficult times, the most important thing is to test the ability of the commander.
If at this time, you want the soldiers to come and make an idea, they will definitely not be able to come up with an idea. Instead, panicked.
However, if you strategize and let them follow your strategy, they will not panic.
After all, there is a backbone.
has the bottom in their hearts, and the coach is not panicking, what are they panicking about?
After all, the sky is falling, and there are tall people on top of it.
"The Wei army is out of the village!"
Outside the camp, Ehuan had been waiting outside for a long time.
If you make a move before, it will consume Wei Jun's physical strength and spirit.
If it were a less timid manager, he might be consumed in it.
However, the military advisor said that this Sima Yi would definitely leave the village tonight.
He was ambushed early on the way he had to go.
recalled what Zhuge Liang said before: Observe the formation, if the Wei army's formation is not chaotic, there is no need to ambush, just let them pass, if the formation is scattered, beat the water dogs and wipe them out.
In the dark night, the Han army was ambushed on the way out of the village by the Wei army, and the Wei army soon appeared in the eyes of E Huan.
This formation.
It's really not messy.
And the pace of the march is too slow, right?
Like a snail.
Isn't he afraid of our Han army's attack?
Kill?
Or not kill?
Thinking of Zhuge Liang's words, E Huan hesitated a little.
But how can the enemy's military formation be seen by looking at the chaos or not?
Wait for me to rush and kill him, and see if his formation is chaotic.
If their formation is out of order, then take the opportunity to wipe them out, and if their formation is not out of order, then let them go.
It is expected that these Wei troops will not dare to pursue them, if they dare to pursue, it will be better!
Let's see if I consume him or not, and he'll be done.
Knock knock!
The drums of war sounded
"Rush!"
"Kill!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
The Han army fought from both sides and was menacing, but by the time they approached the Wei army, a strong defensive line was already on their way.
This is the sword and shield hand and spearman of the Wei army.
Under the command of Sima Yi, they formed an impregnable line of defense.
Their shields were densely packed to form a solid wall, and their swords and spears flashed in front of the array, like a forest of steel, and their spears were arranged in an orderly manner, like a forest of sharp blades.
The Han army's surprise attack was like a beast rushing towards the steel city, but it could not break through the solid array.
Puff puff~
The spear passed through the body, and under the speed, the strong armor was sometimes useless, and the whole person was pierced to the heart, and even several Han soldiers were dressed into a sugar gourd.
The Han army attacked ferociously, but each time they were repulsed by the swordsmen, shieldmen and spearmen.
The Wei army's defense line was as stable as Mount Tai, and it was difficult for the Han army to find a breakthrough.
In this nighttime engagement, the two sides engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat, but the Wei army's solid military formation kept them the upper hand.
However, the Han army did not give up, and they repeatedly launched charges in an attempt to break the Wei army's line, but each time they ended in failure.
Ehuan is attacking the first part of the Wei army, and at this time, the remaining two parts of the Wei army, plus the Wei cavalry, have been outflanked.
"The wind is howling!"
The ambush was only half an hour, and the Han army suffered a lot of casualties, and if they made dumplings for the Wei army, they would probably have to explain everything.
Remove!
Now there is only one way to retreat!
Woo woo woo~
The sound of gold was heard.
Eventually, the Han army had to give up and retreat to a safe distance, no longer pursuing.
And Sima Yi did not act rashly, but commanded the standard-bearers to continue to march towards Shenyang.
That Zhuge Kongming is very cunning, the ghost knows that this ambush fiasco, is it his strategy to lure the enemy?
As long as I'm stable enough, and you Zhuge Liang have a plan, so what?
I'm not fooling you at all!
even
Sima Yi secretly hoped in his heart that the Han army would not be able to resist the temptation and attack him again.
Hehe.
At that time, when Shenyang's reinforcements come together, they may be able to win the field battle, and by the way, they will regain control of the praise.
Although Pingyu was subordinated, the situation in Runan was indeed corrupted.
But it is a little bit to be able to get it back.
Your Han army can occupy Pingyu, can you hold Pingyu?
However.
Sima Yi's small expectations ultimately failed to materialize.
Until the sky was white, the trace of the Han army still did not appear, but Shenyang City, which was already in his eyes.
Boom boom boom~
Bursts of smoke and dust rose in the distance, and Cao Xiu took the tiger and leopard rider and its elite and stopped in front of Sima Yi.
He stepped forward, bowed to Sima Yi, and said, "I don't want this Han army to be so cowardly, if it were me, I would never let go of this opportunity!" ”
The night before, Cao Xiu was the first to attack Xinxi, and yesterday he only rested for an hour or two, and then he came with his troops again, cruising around Sima Yi's army, like a bloodthirsty vulture, waiting for the prey to take the bait.
It's a pity that the wind blew in vain this night, but he didn't rest well for three consecutive days, and this haggard appearance seemed to be five or six years old.
"If Zhuge Liang really comes to stop us and others, he won't have to worry about it."
In a marching war, the most taboo thing is arrogance.
Zhuge Liang defeated the Wei army in Baoxin City, and Runan's strategy was better than his Sima Yi, and he occupied Pingyu, almost an army against the Wei army in Runan.
It is normal to be complacent and arrogant.
However, Zhuge Liang is Zhuge Liang after all, even if he has won against him Sima Yi several times, he still maintains the sanity of a minister.
"Pingyu was taken down, and the situation in Runan took a sharp turn for the worse, sir, do you have a plan?"
Trick?
Sima Yi raised his eyebrows and said to Cao Xiu: "This is not the place to talk, it's better to make plans after you get to Shenyang." ”
The planning of the past few days, fighting wits and courage with Zhuge Liang, has consumed a huge amount of spirit.
And the consumption of the spirit needs to be replenished.
It just so happened that there was almost no water in the army, and Sima Yi's mouth was also very dry at the moment, and his throat seemed to be on fire.
Coupled with the magic attack of Zhuge Liang's drums, shouting and killing, and the sound of horses' hooves for several hours, the current Sima Yi just wants to eat and drink well, and then sleep well.
As for stratagem
Pingyu has been captured, and Xinxi can't be defeated, what other strategies are there?
can only beat Pingyu to death!
meantime
The question of the back road should also be put on the agenda.
The Wei army was defeated at Runan, although it was very humiliating.
However, they are not the main force of the Wei army, and after the king of Wei brings the main force of the Wei army to Runan, the ownership of this Runan has not yet been decided!
The future is undecided, why should he fight for life and death?
Because of the matter of honor, he became angry, and even wanted to die.
Sima Yi can only use one word to describe this kind of person:
Stupid!
If he loses this battle, his reputation will indeed be bad, but as long as he can be reused by King Wei all the time, what is this defeat?
He knows the priorities of things very clearly.
The other side.
Praise in the city.
Zhuge Liang was checking the household registration book of Baoxin City in the hall, and he had a new understanding of the officials in the city.
In his spare time last night, he summoned all the officials inside and outside the city.
Of these, five were promoted, seven were dismissed, and ten were appointed.
In one night, he mastered the situation inside and outside the city.
"Military advisor, it's a pity that the Wei army is short of food and has no water source, so it's a pity to let it go in vain."
Pound looked at the middle-aged scribe in front of him, and in addition to admiration, he still admired it.
This is an iron man!
Working all night, it only took one night to get a clear picture of the inside and outside of the city.
And decentralize the decree to appease the people.
Every aspect of the process has been taken into account by him.
No wonder it is known as the world's Guan Zhong and Le Yi.
There is no vanity under the fame!
"Pity? It's a pity! ”
Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Pang De, and said: "Our army can capture Baoxin, it is already in danger, how can we have the spare strength to go and stop Sima Yi's army of 10,000 people?" ”
Pound doesn't think so.
"In the city, there are more than 10,000 soldiers, pouring out, isn't it the opponent of the Wei army? At this time, the enemy is bright and we are dark, and there should be a chance. ”
Zhuge Liang didn't deny it, but said with a smile: "There is naturally an opportunity, and it is just an opportunity." And the risk is even greater, and we wait to come out of the nest, in case the praise is not guaranteed, what will happen? Is it important to exterminate the Wei army, or is it important to keep the praise? ”
Is it important to exterminate the Wei army, or is it important to keep the praise?
Pound was silent.
And Zhuge Liang's words did not stop.
"Our army has more than 10,000 people, but the Wei army in Shenyang, plus Sima Yi's army, also has tens of thousands of people, the number is more than ours, and even, because of Zhang Bao's dangerous moves, the prince's cavalry army suffered heavy losses, and the tiger and leopard cavalry are still there, we are less than them, and the cavalry they are stronger than us, and the number is more, who wins?"
Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Pang De was even more silent.
"Our army is short of food and grass, and there are not many troops in Runan, although it has now taken the initiative, but this initiative needs to be maintained with troops, if the puppet king Cao Pi comes in person, with the main force of tens of thousands of Wei troops, can we have the initiative?"
Jingzhou has been fighting for a long time, and the vitality has not recovered much, so there is another war.
The supply of grain and grass is insufficient!
Even if the bamboo pole was knocked out from the Jiangdong side, the grain and grass were still stretched.
As for the transfer of grain and grass from Wei through the Shang Alliance, it will take time.
And now.
The Han army is just a little bit of time.
With this little time, he couldn't dispatch Jingzhou's army, and he could only act cautiously with this little time.
The Wei army can be defeated again and again, but when its main force comes, the situation in Runan will change again.
Unless Liu Chan can solve the problem of grain and grass.
However.
If you want to pass through Runan, you must stabilize Xuzhou, because the strategy of food to the enemy will not be established.
After all, it is to be the hearts of the people of Xuzhou.
Of course
Even if you don't think about the hearts of the people in Runan and want to fight the enemy in Xuzhou because of food, it is not easy.
The Wei army fought hard in front, and the grain and grass in Runan were almost consumed.
The people have become poor ghosts, and they can't squeeze much oil and water out.
This is because the enemy has food, and the enemy must have food and grass!
The enemy has no food and grass, so what kind of food is there and what kind of enemy is it?
"Strategist. I'm the last to see the mouse. ”
When it comes to lip service, in this world, I am afraid that few people can compete with Zhuge Liang, such as the current Pang De, an eight-foot man, with his head down at the moment, like a big quail.
"Now that Pingyu has been captured by our army, we should also enter the next step."
Hold the peace?
It's a bet.
Bet on Zhao Yun's ability to defend the city.
But.
This kind of gamble is still too risky.
Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang did not put all their hopes on Zhao Yun.
Or to put it another way, if you want to keep the peace, Zhao Yun alone can't do it.
We have to let Runan move, we have to let Jiangdong move, and we have to let Xuzhou move.
The big tiger of Wei State is now full of minions, and it is still too early to confront it head-on.
At least at this stage, the Han army, facing the main force of the Wei army, on the whole, can only take a defensive position, not an offensive.
At least, not this year.
Not necessarily next year.
There is some hope in the year after tomorrow.
After three years, you can face it head-on.
However.
The opportunity now is so good that the Han army is involved earlier.
Since he participated in the battle with Wei too early, he naturally had to be a little more prepared.
If you don't prepare more than 100 million hands, he Zhuge Liang is not at ease!
Meanwhile.
Thousands of miles away.
In the city of Chang'an.
Zhong Xuan, who was dressed in an official robe, looked very ugly.
His brows were deeply locked, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, his eyes were full of anxiety and worry, his face turned pale, and the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed.
And the reason is precisely because of this military newspaper in hand.
The content of the military newspaper is very simple, leading a Wei army in Hangu Pass, leaving its post without permission and marching towards Luoyang.
This Wei army, coincidentally, is the descendant army that was taken out by Cao Zhang before.
An ominous premonition had risen in Zhong Xuan's heart.
When he thought of a possibility, he felt as if he had been electrocuted, and his whole body was excited.
Wei!
Is there going to be a change in the Wei State?
