Chapter 299 The Battle of Shu to Destroy Wei (Rush Up the Mountain!)

……

At the foot of Shouyang Mountain, the two armies of Shu and Wei are still in a stalemate.

The sky gradually darkened.

Cao Shuang looked at the army of "thieves" at the foot of the mountain, then turned his attention to Cao Xi, Cao Xun, and Cao Yan, and said: "Second brother, I will assign you 3000 people to guard the small road in the north of the mountain; third brother, I will also give you 3000 people." People, go to guard the trail to the south of the mountain; fourth brother, you also lead 3000 troops to guard the road up the mountain in Shandong, these roads are related to the safety of His Majesty, you must not be careless."

"Yes, brother, I will obey!"

Cao Xi, Cao Xun, and Cao Yan clasped their fists in a "huo" salute, received the order with both hands, and strode away.

Cao Shuang glanced at Gao Rou, quite proud of his personnel arrangements.

Gao Rou was a civil servant and didn't know how to fight. He didn't know whether Cao Shuang's arrangement was reasonable or not.

What if the gang of thieves at the bottom of the mountain came to attack in the middle of the night?There are only 3000 guards on the southeast, north, and south sides. How can they stop nearly ten thousand bandits with strong combat effectiveness?
But Cao Shuang is Cao Rui's "fat slave". Gao Rou didn't say much, but turned around and went up the mountain to report the situation to Cao Rui truthfully.

After the defensive strategy was determined, the entire Wei army began to take advantage of the darkness to act.Soldiers began to continuously transport large stones to various intersections and stack them up.More soldiers were divided into groups of three or five, and began to cut down the trees, starting to cut down the trees based on the four intersections, so as to prevent the bandits from setting fire to the mountain at night.

Since the story of Ma Di "cutting down all the trees in Nanshan to prevent fire" in the battle of Jieting spread, all generals in the world regard this practice as common sense for guarding the mountain.

Staying alone on the poor mountain, there are only two things that I fear most, one is lack of water, and the other is fire.But Shouyang Mountain is huge, and there is not only one source of water on the mountain, which is enough to feed ten thousand people.Now you only need to eliminate the fire hazard in the bud, and you can sit back and relax.

From a distance, the Wei army on the entire Shouyang Mountain is like a nest of busy ants, with a clear division of labor and an orderly manner.

Wei Jun built fortifications very quickly.

When it was completely dark, tall village buildings had been erected at the four intersections on the mountainside, and the soldiers had already hid in the camp behind the village buildings and began to enjoy their dinner.

I don't know which surviving soldier participated in the battle under the mountain. An extremely depressed cry first sounded in the western camp, and quickly spread to the entire army.

The group of "thieves" at the bottom of the mountain brought them not only the shock of invulnerability, but also ruthless brutality. When they thought that they had harvested nearly [-] lives indifferently like trampling ants to death, all the soldiers shuddered.

This night, this group of soldiers of the Great Wei Imperial Army who have never been on the battlefield are destined to be unable to sleep peacefully.

That scene during the day was too bloody!

They may have been timid and afraid back then, but now they are scared and endlessly afraid.

That group of "thieves" really killed Wei soldiers like livestock...

Gao Rou hurried down from the mausoleum above and asked, "Uncle Zhao, what happened?"

"Why do soldiers cry? Where is the military law?!"

Cao Shuang shook his head, "Lord Sikong, the law does not blame the public."

"Maybe they'll be fine after they cry."

Cao Shuang has fought in war, and knows that life and death, blood and fire are the process that every soldier must go through. After crying and fear, only those who still have the courage to pick up swords and guns are qualified soldiers.And those who don't have the courage to pick up a knife and gun will be eliminated.

This is also the reason why a country has 40 young and strong, but can only recruit [-] soldiers at most-not everyone is qualified to become a soldier.

Gao Rou didn't continue to entangle in this matter, she thought for a while and said: "Uncle Zhao, Your Majesty is very angry, can you hold on tonight?"

"Yes, yes." Cao Shuang assured, patting his chest, but he didn't know much about it.After seeing the ferocity of the "thieves", he also had doubts about the next situation.

It's not that he didn't want to take His Majesty down another road to escape, go to Yecheng or Xuchang, and then rein in the king, but after seeing the fast walking speed of the bandits down the mountain, Cao Shuang wisely chose to stay on the mountain. don't go either.

Moreover, Cao Shuang was [-]% sure that the person at the foot of the mountain must be Ma Su.

Because the soldiers under Ma Di have a remarkable characteristic, they run extremely fast.At such a running speed, it is absolutely impossible for Wei Jun to escape. I am afraid that he will be overtaken if he runs for thirty or forty miles.

After Gao Rou conveyed Cao Rui's will, she walked up the mountain with square steps.

Cao Shuang has been standing at the intersection of the upper mountain on the west side of the mountain, staring straight at the bandit camp below, without saying a word for a long time.

In fact, he had learned the news of Luoyang's fall half an hour ago. The news was sent by Taiwei Jiang Ji with a carrier pigeon.

But Cao Shuang did not dare to tell Cao Rui and his three younger brothers the news, nor did he dare to tell anyone.Once this news spreads in the army, the already low morale of the sergeants will instantly sink to the bottom.

But there are some things that you can't keep a secret if you want to keep it a secret.

Early the next morning, there was movement from the foot of the mountain: the thieves put their hands to their mouths and shouted in unison, "The capital Luoyang has fallen, why didn't Cao Shuang come down sooner..."

Hearing these words, the Wei soldiers looked down in panic, and then looked at the commander Cao Shuang in unison.

Cao Shuang pulled out his sword and said righteously: "These are the words of the thieves to disturb our army's morale. Don't believe it. The city of Luoyang is high and deep, and there are still [-] forbidden troops in the city. How can mere bandits destroy the capital of our great Wei state?! "

The soldiers thought about it, and they all felt relieved.

After a night of buffering, the impact of yesterday's killing has slowed down, and most of the soldiers are already transforming into real soldiers.

As soon as Cao Shuang calmed down the crowd, he was called up by Cao Rui.

Cao Rui was kneeling in front of Cao Pi's tomb to worship and sacrifice. Seeing Cao Shuang approaching, he got up and asked sharply whether the "Luoyang fell" was true.

Cao Shuang retreated from the crowd and told the truth.

Cao Rui slumped and knelt back, eyes full of disappointment, the two monarchs and ministers looked at each other speechlessly.

The day passed peacefully, and the bandits did not attack the mountain by force.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, silently thinking about the time when the reinforcements would arrive.

In two days, two days at most, Sima Yi's reinforcements can come back from Chang'an, and chop this gang of unknown thieves into powder.

Thinking of the more than 1 imperial guards of the Wei Dynasty and the emperor Cao Rui being blocked on the mountain and not daring to move, the king and ministers of the Wei Dynasty felt extremely aggrieved.

So frustrating!

The third day was still a sunny day, with a bright red sun and no clouds in the sky.Good weather conditions make the field of vision very broad.

Before most of the soldiers woke up, Cao Shuang stood on the mountainside platform under the protection of several personal guards to observe the enemy's situation.

One day, another day, Sima Yi's reinforcements should be back.

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a man from the bandit army jumping out on a horse, shot an arrow up the mountain, and then retreated sharply.

A soldier had picked up the arrow with the letter tied to it a long time ago, and Cao Shuang fell into deep thought after seeing it.

Sure enough, as he expected, the person at the foot of the mountain was indeed Ma Su, the general of Shu Han who conquered the West.Ma Di said in the letter: The inner city of Luoyang has been destroyed, and the family members of all the ministers, including the emperor, have been captured, and Cao Rui is ordered to surrender unconditionally within three days.Otherwise, if you kill them up the mountain, you will not leave a piece of armor behind.

Cao Shuang initially thought that Ma Su would only be limited for one day at most, but he didn't expect it to be three days.

So he cheerfully took the letter up the mountain to show to Cao Rui and the accompanying ministers, telling them that the reinforcements would return within a day.

Cao Rui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and went back to Cao Pi's tomb to worship, thanking his father for his spirit in the sky, and protecting Wei from danger.

Meanwhile, Yamashita.

"Youchang, why give them a three-day deadline? I can lead an army to go up the mountain today and capture Cao Rui alive!" Wei Yan said anxiously, he didn't understand Ma Su's actions.

The winning ticket is in your hands, why procrastinate?

Rush, rush up the mountain, Wei Guo will perish!
Ma Di smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, Chief Wen. I have my own plan. I can capture Cao Rui alive without a single soldier in custody."

Wei Yan sat down impatiently, and asked doubtfully, "Cao Rui will bind his hands and go down the mountain to surrender?"

"Of course!" Ma Di nodded in affirmation.

In the past two days, he has also been simulating the battle situation.

When he found out that Sima Yi didn't come back to help, but Xia Houba came back with [-] troops, he decided to play big!
By the way, in another time and space, the humiliation suffered by the Shu Han when it perished was returned to Cao Wei.
