Chapter 284 Zhuge Liang: I'm Annoyed When I See This Turtle

Qin Lang was leading his army to break through to the south, when a soldier beside him suddenly screamed, was shot in the cheek by a flying arrow, and fell down straight.

"General, save me!"

Listening to the wailing of his subordinates before they were dying, Qin Lang raised his long sword with anxiety, and shouted with all his strength:

"Soldiers, charge forward and take my life away!"

No one answered his words, but every soldier was rushing with all his survival instincts.

Little by little, the Wei army was advancing towards the south, and the tail was tightly bitten by Kobineng's army, fighting fiercely.

Because Kirby can attempt to wipe out the Shu army, the Xianbei people in every direction of the encirclement are at an absolute disadvantage in number.Especially in the southern pass, there are only more than 5000 people stationed, so when the breakout troops of the Wei army began to attack the fortifications, the Xianbei people in the front were at a huge disadvantage almost instantly.If it wasn't for their favorable position, they might not even be able to stop Wei Jun for a single round.

However, this is only a disadvantage in one direction. In the other direction, the Xianbei people's advantage is getting bigger and bigger. The Wei army is retreating steadily, and the casualties are getting bigger and bigger.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, you can see the red flags of the Xianbei people gradually gathered in one place, biting tightly on the drab tail representing the Wei army, constantly nibbling away...

"Why haven't there been hailstorms yet? The Wei army is in such a difficult situation. If there is no more hailstorms, they will be defeated. What's the matter with the Wei army who came to reinforce it? It takes so long to fight a pass?"

Zhang Xiu stood aside and muttered, his words were full of the meaning of wanting to help Wei Jun.Although the purpose of coming to the grassland this time was to help the Xianbei people defeat the Wei army, but when it came to the decisive moment, he still didn't want the Xianbei people to win so easily.

Huang Xi gave him a strange look, "It's really hailstorm, didn't the Wei army lose faster? The general said just now that once the weather suddenly changes, the Xianbei people will have an advantage."

Li Sheng also echoed, "That's right, Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, where are you standing? We are the enemies of Wei State now."

This is a bit embarrassing, it is a multiple-choice question about death, and it is not easy to answer.

No matter which side the answer is on, there is suspicion of turning the back of the Han to the enemy.

Zhang Xiu quickly glanced at Ma Di, and found that the latter was looking into the distance in a daze, his face remained unchanged, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said confidently, "Of course I'm on the general's side."

Seeing that Zhang Xiu hadn't been hurt, Li Sheng laughed, looked around, and wondered: "General, will there really be hail today? Why don't you think it won't be cold again?"

"General?!"

Li Sheng's cry finally brought Ma Su back to his senses.He looked at the battlefield, and found that the Xianbei people had a very large advantage, and it seemed that the victory would be determined soon, and he was suddenly surprised.

"The battlefield is indeed ever-changing and unpredictable."

"As far as talent is concerned, the cold current from the sky is indeed not good for the Wei army; but as far as the current situation is concerned, the cold current from the sky can interrupt the offensive of the Xianbei people and give the Wei army a chance to breathe, which is extremely beneficial to the Wei army."

Just as he was talking, Yang Wanwan suddenly pointed at the foot of the mountain to the east and said loudly, "Look, general!"

Everyone followed the prestige and saw that Wei's reinforcements had finally broken through the eastern pass, entered towards Shicheng, and began to attack Xianbei's rear.

The Xianbei people were suddenly attacked, and they were in chaos for a while
Ma Di nodded and continued to sigh: "Based on the current situation, the cold weather will start to be unfavorable to Wei Jun again."

The four generals looked at each other and realized something.

Zhang Xiu was the first to say: "I know, I know, the general's implication is that ability is not as good as God's will."

Huang Xi glanced at him again, and said sharply, "Is that what the general means? The general is saying that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, so the general must be aware of the situation and seize every fleeting opportunity."

Li Sheng shook his head and put forward a different opinion: "Not necessarily, I think what the general wants to express is: this cold snap is a bit of a joke, why not come, the sooner the hailstorm falls, the sooner everyone can get into the tent and do business..."

This statement immediately got everyone's approval.

Yang Wanwan looked at him after seeing everyone's statement, thought for a while and said: "I think what the general wants to say is: the way of using troops is ever-changing, just like the weather that is about to change, it is unpredictable. As a general, you should know Yin and Yang, connected with astrology, predicting opportunities first, then controlling people later..."

"Cut!" Before Yang Wanwan could finish speaking, everyone interrupted him with pursed lips.

Li Sheng glanced at him, and said to the other two: "It seems that Xiao Yang was stunned by those two girls, and he is already talking nonsense."

Huang Xi and Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.

Ma Su shook his head again and again and laughed, watching the four generals fighting in silence.What I think in my heart is, after this battle, what kind of status should I stand in the court of Shu Han?Even after a hundred years of Zhuge Liang, what kind of status should I stand in the court of Shu Han?
There are not many paths for him to choose.

In the original time and space, Sima Yi was the final "winner". It can be said that [-]% of the Sima family's ability to replace Cao Wei and establish the Western Jin Empire was due to Sima Yi.

Although Sima Yi has always regarded himself as a loyal minister of the state of Wei, he was actually prepared from the very beginning to have power over the government and the public, and worked hard in this direction for decades, and finally succeeded in one blow.

From this point of view, Sima Yi's cunning and foresight can be said to be unsurpassed in the current world. Perhaps in his heart, he never thought that Zhuge Liang was his opponent. The confrontation between him and Zhuge Liang was more for "" To survive", not to "win".

He knows that as long as Zhuge Liang exists, he has the value of his existence.

When Cao Cao was still alive, he told his cronies and even his heirs that Sima Yi had a "look like a wolf", and it was impossible to give him a big responsibility, so Cao Cao never reused Sima Yi until his death.

Before Cao Cao died, he specifically asked Cao Pi not to reuse Sima Yi, and Cao Pi passed this instruction to Cao Rui before his death.

Sima Yi should know all these Cao Wei court secrets.Even if he doesn't know, he can be inferred from the fact that he was reused by Cao Rui in his 50s and appointed as the highest military officer in the Yongliang area-every Cao Wei emperor was on guard against him.

This is his worst enemy.

But different from Cao Cao, neither Cao Pi nor Cao Rui has Cao Cao's great talent and military talent, and they are only close to Cao Cao in one aspect.Especially during Cao Rui's administration, he often encountered major defeats in the battles against Shu and Wu.As a last resort, Sima Yi had to go out to save the crisis.

Immediately, Sima Yi used the strategy of "strict observance and no fighting" to consume Zhuge Liang to death in Wuzhangyuan. He also ended the four-year duel with Zhuge and returned to the Cao Wei court as a winner.

After Zhuge Liang's death, no one in the Shu Han could compare with Sima Yi's resourcefulness, but Sima Yi did not take advantage of the victory to attack Shu, and did not attack Shu in his life, but set his sights on the interior of Wei.

He knew that once Zhuge Liang died, the value of his existence in the Wei State would be greatly reduced, so he had to keep a low profile and keep a low profile, cultivate party members and forces as soon as possible, and secretly control "Wei State", otherwise, the whole family would be in danger.

In ancient times, those with high meritorious deeds would surely die if they did not usurp the throne.

Judging from various situations, Sima Yi is actually the most powerful character, and his situation is much more dangerous than Zhuge Liang.In the midst of internal and external troubles, you can also defend against powerful enemies from the outside, and have a relationship with the inside, but you can do a job with ease in the waves.This ability to resolve political dilemmas is far more difficult than fighting wars.

The fate of Han Xin and Lu Xun can best illustrate this point. Han Xin and Lu Xun are two military giants and political idiots.So they were all forced to death by the king.

Ma Di didn't want to end up like this one day.

How can a person who does not want to usurp the throne avoid the murderous intent of the high-gong Zhenzhu?The ancients usually used self-defilement to explain the doubts of the king. For example, Xiao He reassured Liu Bang by intentionally greedy for money.

Ma Su thought for a while, and felt that the only suitable means of self-defilement for him was lust.

And lust itself is one of his shortcomings.

While he was meditating, his face suddenly went numb, and then dense icicles fell all over the sky.

Everyone cheered like birds and beasts, and ran back to the tent with their heads covered.

The two sides who were fighting fiercely down the mountain were stunned by the sudden hailstorm.

Just turned defeat into victory, Qin Lang, the dominant general of the Wei army, looked depressed, and Tian Yu, the other general, waved his knife resentfully, and ordered the whole army to retreat to the east pass to set up camp.

The battlefield, which had been lively for most of the day, gradually fell silent.

The sky was full of hail, and the world was vast.

Fortunately, the response was timely, and the Wei army suffered minimal casualties under the cold current.

The next day, before dawn, it began to rain in the sky.As time went by, the rain became heavier and heavier, gradually turning into a pouring trend.

The two Wei armies were all trapped in the valley, unable to advance or retreat.

The Xianbei people hid comfortably in the stone city, recharged their batteries, and waited for the rain to stop before they dealt a devastating blow to the Wei army.

At this moment, including the coaches of both sides, they all thought that the heavy rain would pass soon, and they were all patiently waiting for the heavy rain to end before deciding the outcome.

…………

Seven days later.

Guanzhong, Wuzhangyuan, the base camp of the Shu army.

Zhuge Liang looked at the gorgeous women's attire in front of him, pondering over and over again.

This is the fourth time that the Shu army occupied Wuzhangyuan, and it was also the second time that Zhuge Liang led his troops to station in Wuzhangyuan. The process of occupying Wuzhangyuan was very easy and almost effortless.

Maybe it was Sima Yi who thought that the Shu army's occupation of Wuzhangyuan was tying his own hands and feet, or maybe it was Sima Yi's negligence.The defense strength of the Xiegu exit and even Wuzhangyuan is very average.

After the Shu army occupied Wuzhangyuan three times before, they failed to reap the benefits of one city and one place in the end, which further proved Sima Yi's point of view.

Therefore, Sima Yi divided the 15 main forces into two groups, one led by his son Sima Shi, who was stationed at Xiaoguan to defend against Zhao Yun from Longyou;

In addition, Sima Yi also ordered Hao Zhao to be stationed in Chencang, taking into account the defense of the Weishui Road; Xiahou Ba guarding Meixian, taking into account the defense in the direction of Chang'an; Niu Jin stationed in Beiyuan, taking into account the defense of Xiaoguan.The entire Guanzhong area is run by him like an iron bucket.

All of its strategies are condensed into one word, "Shou".

Zhuge Liang had a headache for this strategy, and he had nothing to do. After repeated challenges to no avail, he was worried every day thinking about countermeasures until late at night.

Although the equipment of the Shu army is better than before, it is a situation that Zhuge Liang does not want to see if he really risks the result of greater battle damage than the opponent.

Among other things, once the 20 soldiers and horses of the Shu Han are over, it is really over, and it is difficult to gather such a powerful army in a short period of time.After the Wei army's 15 soldiers and horses in Guanzhong were finished, there were at least 30 to [-] soldiers and horses in other parts of the country.

Based on this consideration, Zhuge Liang once again chose to camp in Wuzhangyuan, and kept sending people to challenge Sima Yi to urge the army to attack—because the main attacking side usually loses twice or three times that of the defending side. The battle damage was five times or more.

But Sima Yi Wang Ba eats the weight - he is determined, and despite Zhuge Liang's teasing in every possible way, he just doesn't give any response.

Zhuge Liang had no choice but to ask someone to bring a set of women's clothes, thinking of sending them to Sima Yi tomorrow to stimulate the old turtle.

Theoretically, any general who is humiliated by being given women's clothes will become angry and raise troops to fight on the spot.But Zhuge Liang was not sure about Sima Yi alone.

Whether this strategy works or not depends on God's will.

Thinking of the past few years of dealing with Sima Yi, the two sides have hardly had a quick battle, each time it was grinding and grinding, until one side was weak and quit, Zhuge Liang sighed fiercely.

"Sima Yi, Sima Yi, do you really belong to the tortoise?"

Just when he was depressed, he suddenly saw Yang Yi lift the curtain and enter, and said with great joy: "Prime Minister, we are defeated, our army is defeated!"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was so angry that he gave Yang Yi a hard look.

Our army is defeated?How come my prime minister doesn't know?
Yang Yi froze, and quickly corrected: "Prime Minister, the Wei army was defeated, a big defeat!"

"Three days ago, Qin Lang, the cavalry general of Wei Xiao, and Tian Yu, the governor of Youzhou, and Ke Bineng fought in Shicheng. When they were about to win, there was hail from the sky, and then seven days of heavy rain. When they were scattered, the Xianbei people took advantage of their momentum to charge and kill them, and they were defeated, and the army went seven or eight out of ten."

Yang Yi took a breath, and continued: "This, this is the battle report sent back by Xiaochang!"

Win again?
Surprise flashed across Zhuge Liang's face, he took the battle report and read it carefully, then raised his hand and passed it to Wei Yan who had heard the news.Jiang Wei read it and passed it to Deng Zhi; Deng Zhi read it and passed it to Liao Hua.

After everyone circulated it, Zhuge Liang was still silent.

The Wei State was almost completely annihilated in Shicheng this time, and only more than 1 of the [-] troops fled back. This can be said to be the second worst defeat in the history of the Wei State.

The first disastrous defeat was the Battle of Chibi. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers died under the triple attack of plague, fire and Wu army.

But even though Wei Guo experienced such a tragic defeat, the situation is still not overturned.

Because Kirby was able to kill nearly 5 people back and forth.At present, the Xianbei people only have more than 4 soldiers, and they are basically semi-disabled, and the threat they can bring to Wei is not as good as before.

Wei Guo can still mobilize troops from other places to go to Bingzhou and Youzhou to guard against Ke Bineng.

Moreover, the most important thing is that Wei's fiasco had little impact on the battle in Guanzhong.At least in a short period of time, Sima Yi cannot be affected.

As long as Sima Yi's 15 army is as stable as Mount Tai, the Shu Han will have nothing to do.

Zhuge Liang's eyes rested on the bright women's clothing for a moment again, and said in a deep voice:

"Come here, send this set of women's clothes to the Wei Army camp!"
