The Three Kingdoms

ps: Don’t talk about unfinished things. I couldn’t complete the update because I caught a cold. The weather has changed too much these days. I’ve been a little dizzy since yesterday. I have a sore throat today. Sleeping or sleeping, my head is dizzy, and I can code words, which is not bad!

[Chapter 999 of the main text, Great Wu's Western Expedition, Extinguishing Guishuang [-]]

The temperature in the May season is already very hot in Guishuang. In the atmosphere of this early summer, Wu Junbing came to Fulousha City, the capital of Guishuang, and set up camp outside the city, rushing for several miles.

In the camp of the Chinese army, all the generals gathered together, and then discussed how to attack this fortified city.

"Kong Ming, if I wait for half a year, I might as well attack Fulousha by force. I can break into the city in at most three months!" Zhou Tai said coldly after hearing Zhuge Liang's words.

With the domestic withdrawal of troops from Bashu, the three divisions that Gan Ning took away at the beginning came, and two divisions have already returned to Guishuang.

The forces of the Haiying camp had already assembled, if he used all his forces to attack this battle, within three months, the mill could grind down this city, there was no need to wait half a year.

"Half a year?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Tai, smiled, but shook his head: "General, we don't need such a long time, we only need one month!"

"One month?"

Zhou Tai's eyes widened suddenly, and his eyes fell on the marching map, on which was a map of the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

One month, impossible, right?

According to his understanding, Han Sui's soldiers and horses are still in the territory of the Protectorate of the Western Regions. It is impossible to go south so easily. One month is not enough!

He gritted his teeth and retorted: "Kong Ming, this is impossible at all. Han Sui's soldiers and horses are still in the border of Kucha in the Protectorate of the Western Regions. To break through the Dawan Kingdom, you have to use the territory of the Da Yuezhi. Although they have a detailed marching map that we have drawn for you, they can avoid some dangerous terrain, but the road along the way is difficult, and there will be certain obstacles. Soldiers and horses stand in the way, and it will be impossible to do it for a month!"

"General, I don't mean that all of their main force will go south. But as long as they send out a cavalry to go south, the number does not need to be many, three thousand cavalry will do!"

Zhuge Liang analyzed softly: "With the speed of three thousand Qingqi, it will take less than a month. Up to 20 days. If all goes well, they will be able to enter the territory of the Guishuang Empire in half a month!"

"Kong Ming, please speak clearly. No matter how I hear it, I am a little confused!"

Zhou Tai scratched his head a little.

What Zhuge Liang said was thoughtless, and he felt that he had listened to one paragraph after another, but he really couldn't connect it.

"General, what I mean is to sing an empty city strategy to King Guishuang in Fulousha City. With our current strength, it will be very difficult to break through Fulousha, but if we can take the Guishuang army in the city* Come out, it will be much easier!"

Zhuge Liang's detailed analysis: "For a long time, the route of the Wu army's attack on the Guishuang Empire has been from south to north, and entered Guishuang from the sea. The northern expedition, of course, gave the Guishuang army the impression that all our soldiers and horses were in the south. , but when a group of Wu soldiers appeared to their north, King Guishuang would definitely be in chaos, and he would be afraid that we would attack from the north and the south.

"I understand. What the chief of staff means is that the north side only needs to make a momentum, and there is no need to attack the city. As long as they are sure that the north side will march south, King Guishuang will not be able to hold it. He doesn't want to sit still and wait for death, he needs to break through!"

A teacher's eyes lit up.Said.

"That's right!"

Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes: "I don't believe that King Guishuang is a person who regards death as his home, he is afraid of death and wants to run for his life!"

"Now that most of Guishuang's territory has been taken by me, is there any place for him to escape?" Zhou Tai sneered.

"Of course there is!"

Zhuge Liang looked at a detailed marching map and pointed to the area west of Guishuang: "The Anxi Empire, as long as he can break through, he can still flee towards the Anxi Empire!"

"The Rest of the Empire?"

"That's right. The Parthian Empire!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes fell on a large map hanging on the front, which was a world map drawn by Sun Quan from memory.

This map is not very accurate, but it has roughly marked some terrains in Guishan, Anxi, Rome, Africa, and the Mediterranean.

When Zhuge Liang saw this map for the first time, he felt extremely shocked.

As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books.

Zhuge Liang was forced to come to Guishuang from the west this time. From his reluctance at the beginning, he now feels at ease. He feels that his vision has opened up a lot. Before, he only knew about the existence of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, but he never thought about it. However, are there other countries in the west of the Protectorate of the Western Regions?

When he came ashore from the sea, he saw the Guishuang Governor's Mansion, and after hanging the world map drawn by Sun Quan himself on the main hall, he felt that his world view had changed a little.

In the past, in Zhuge Liang's world view, there was only the Central Plains. The farther away was the Xiongnu Xianbei in the northern border, Goguryeo in the northeast, and a little further away, that was the Western Regions, Wusun, Qiuci, Dawan, and Shanshan.

But this world map told him that the world was bigger than he had imagined. In the past, he was like the frog in a well watching the sky, unable to see the vast sky.

Guishuang Empire, Parthian Empire, these places seemed very strange to him, but what interested him even more was the Roman Empire, which he had never heard of.

He has been in the Sea Eagle Army for a long time. As the chief of staff of the Sea Eagle Battalion, he has the right to view all the information in the army. These materials are all top secret of the Navy, and they are related to the news returned from the western detection.

He also obtained a lot of information from Zhou Tai.

Therefore, he knew that the Roman Empire in the far west was a powerful country that Sun Quan, the great emperor of the Eastern Wu who controlled half of the Central Plains, was extremely afraid of.

Although he had never heard of the Roman Empire and questioned whether there was a country in the world comparable to the Central Plains, he might as well trust Sun Quan's judgment.

Sometimes he felt very strange, how did Sun Zhongmou know about these places? He was younger than himself, so it was impossible for him to have such travel experience.

Are there really people who are born knowing?

Zhuge Liang shook his head, returned to the topic, and pointed to a target direction of the marching map: "General, you see, the border of the Guishuang Empire is adjacent to the Parthian Empire. According to the information your spies have obtained from the Parthian Empire over the years, The Anxi Empire is much stronger than the Guishuang Empire in terms of national power and military power. After taking Guishuang, it will naturally be the Anxi Empire, and the King of Guishuang should know this. If he wants to escape to the Anxi Empire, because of the same hatred, he can rely on The troops of the Parthian Empire will return to the country!"

"Kong Ming, there is one thing. You are wrong, it is not you, but us. You are now a citizen of Great Wu!"

Zhou Tai gave Zhuge Liang a meaningful look, and then corrected him solemnly.

"I made a mistake!"

Zhuge Liang looked calm.But I feel a little bitter in my heart. There is a big difference between you and us.

In fact, since he entered the Haiying camp, he has come into contact with Wu Jun and seen Wu Guo more, which made him constantly improve his thoughts. He doesn't know how long he can persist like this, and he probably will soon Turned you into us from the bottom of my heart.

"Kong Ming, are you sure that they will leave the city?"

Zhou Tai didn't pay too much attention to this.Leaving the marching map, he walked to a large sand table, looked at the deployment of troops on the sand table, and said cautiously.

"General, as long as there is a force from the north of the Guishuang Empire to respond to us with the Wu army's battle flag, the probability of this will reach [-]%!"

Zhuge Liang spoke out the steps of the plan, and said: "Let's retreat here first, and let the Guishuang army breathe a sigh of relief. After they breathed a sigh of relief, they suddenly found traces of Wu Jun's soldiers and horses in the north of Guishuang. Their attention It will be placed on the north side, and when their attention is on the north side, we will return to the carbine, which will naturally give them a sense of crisis to the greatest extent. Even if they can't break Fulousha City, we can force them to withdraw from Fulousha City by themselves!"

"Kong Ming, I believe in you, and I will do as you say!"

In this short period of time, Zhuge Liang's talent gained Zhou Tai's trust, because Zhuge Liang was able to push the war step by step so quickly.So he was willing to accept Zhuge Liang's judgment: "Zhao Zheng, can you Jin Yiwei pass the news to Han Sui in the shortest possible time?"

"It should be possible!" A young man wearing a flying fish suit with an embroidered spring knife came out.

"Well, you send me a message immediately and ask him to send [-] cavalry to the south. Within half a month, one of them must arrive in Guishuang!"

Zhou Tai said resolutely: "And the momentum must be big, and it's best to make it a household name!"
