The Three Kingdoms

"The vanguard army is about to enter the official road of Sifang Mountain!" Xu Shu said: "Jiang Qin No. 11 army is waiting!"

"The east is directly connected to Chen Cang, so don't underestimate it!"

Zhuge Liang said: "I put the No.11 Army and the No.12 Army here. Even if they can't be wiped out, they must keep part of the main force of their vanguard army. How much is left?"

"Fazheng and Jiang Qin will not let you down!"

"Where's their main force?" Zhuge Liang asked again.

"The main force of the Wei army has become a little weird!" Xu Shu said: "They actually went straight to the south. They can't go back to Guanzhong in the south, and they will go south to Hanyang, the capital of Wu at most!"

"You underestimated Sima Yi!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the sand table, his eyes lit up, and he shook his head: "Whoever said that you can't go back to Guanzhong from the south, don't forget Weishui!"

A Weishui River runs through Sansuke.

"They want to take the Weishui River back to Guanzhong?" Xu Shu was startled, and frowned: "But if they want to go back from the Weishui River, they need a boat. Where do they have so many warships!"

"This is the key!"

Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Time is very important. Ju Yi's army is right behind their buttocks. They don't have enough time. It's not easy to cross the Wei River by force. I want to see what Si Yi does. Now the vanguard army and the rear army It's changed, Cao Zhang's troops are not strong, and I don't need to leave too many troops in the east, Xu Sheng's [-]th Army has been ordered to abandon the ambush point, and move south to the main force of Li Juyi to encircle and suppress Sima Yi's troops!"

"Yes!"

He always felt that this battle was never over.

After all, Sima Yi is a good opponent. The most important thing is that he is pitying the casualties of the Wu army, so he is unwilling to confront the Wei army head-on, which has become an advantage for the Wei army to break through.

He calculated very well. If this battle goes well, he will consume at least two-thirds of the main force of the Wei army with casualties of less than [-]. Even if the remaining soldiers and horses are allowed to escape back to Guanzhong, they will lose played a role.

But the unpredictable changes on the battlefield were beyond Zhuge Liang's calculations.

This battle of breaking out of the siege and the confrontation between the two armies lasted for three full days.

Three days later, the remnants of the Wei army broke out and gathered in Chencang.

……

All the results of this battle were also quickly gathered in Zhuge Liang's Chinese army command barracks from the battlefields in all directions, but the report did not satisfy him, but made his expression a little gloomy.

"Zhang Lu's Hanzhong army took over the vanguard of the Wei army?"

"Yes!"

Xu Shu said: "We have all forgotten that Zhang Lu's troops, after they failed to snipe the No. 14 Army northward in Xixian County, were attacked by Sima Yi and sent to transport grain. The place where they are stationed is Chencang Between Hejieting and Jieting, he suddenly dispatched troops to attack the two streams, forcing Fazheng's No.12 Army to retreat, and successfully received Cao Zhang's vanguard army to go south to Chencang. Although he captured tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, it did not meet our expectations. The result of the battle!"

"Zhang Lu, this was my negligence!"

Zhuge Liang said, "Where's Sima Yi's main force?"

"Let them run out too!"

"How did Sima Yi escape?"

"Originally, Sima Yi was blocked by the Weishui River. Sima Yi did choose to forcibly cross the Weishui River, but according to our calculations, General Ju Yi gathered the second, third, and fourth troops and the No.16 army besieged him. Even if Sima Yi can escape , at most there could be [-] to [-] remnants, but your worries became a reality, Pound broke out of Qishan, went north to the Weishui River, and met Sima Yi, and the two armies merged without going through the Weishui River, and fought a bloody road head-on!"

"What about Ma Chao?"

"The siege of Ma Chao's department made us a lot smoother!"

Xu Shu replied: "Ma Chao's troops were harassed and killed by Ke Bineng's Xianbei army all the way, and he was already a bit dangerous when he walked. When he walked out of Leaf Mountain, his troops were less than one-third left, so he could only be regarded as hasty. escape!"

"But our attrition strategy failed in the end!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes were gloomy, and his gaze was cold: "Sima Yishu finally led the main force of the Wei army to save their vitality and kill them. This means that we will have to pay the price to fight a bloody battle with them!"

"They can't go back to Chang'an!"

Xu Shu thought for a while, and said firmly: "Jinyiwei just sent the news that the No.13 Army has taken the Wugong City from Wudu, and separated the connection between Chang'an and Chencang. We still have a chance to surround and kill this part. Wei Jun!"

"It's not a big defeat!"

Zhuge Liang nodded: "Pass our military order, Ju Yike Bi Neng, each led his troops to encircle Chencang, and Meng Huo on the south bank of the Wei River immediately led his troops to Wuzhangyuan!"

"Wuzhangyuan?" Xu Shu was startled, and asked, "Why Wuzhangyuan!"

"If you were Sima Yi, faced with such casualties, and found that Wugong County had already been captured by our army, would he still escape?" Zhuge Liang asked back.

"No!" Xu Shu said: "Fleeing is death, beating is death, putting it to death and then reviving, you must fight!"

"Then where is the final battlefield?" Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Wuzhangyuan!"

Xu Shu's eyes brightened: "I see, Sima Yi and Ma Chao must have come to their senses in the face of such wasted casualties, so they chose to attack head-on, but why not Chen Cang!"

"They still have a lot of elites. Chen Cang is suitable for offense and defense, but they can't use it. We can surround them to death, but they have nothing to do!"

Zhuge Liang explained: "If I were Sima Yi, since there was nowhere to go and there would be pursuers, I would follow the example of the overlord of Western Chu back then, gather the main force, and fight a bloody battle with us. Although the force is not enough for us, since ancient times, with few Shengduo, not without it!"

"So I conclude that Sima Yi will definitely persuade Ma Chao to withdraw from Chencang and fight us on the Wuzhang Plain. If he fails, he will be benevolent!" (To be continued.)

[Chapter 220 of the text, the decisive battle with Wuzhangyuanyi]

Ten years of the Warring States Period, June.

Chen Cangcheng.

This city, known as the Guanzhong West Gate, gathered hundreds of thousands of main forces between Wu and Wei. After the Wei army broke through, most of the soldiers and horses basically gathered in Chencang City, and the main forces of the Wu army also gathered one by one. The soldiers came to Chencang under the city.

The majestic Chencang City seems to be like a barrier, blocking the way for the Soochow army to enter Guanzhong.

However, under the confrontation between the Wu and Wei armies, a bloody offensive and defensive battle did not break out.

There are hundreds of thousands of troops above and below the city, and the distance between them is less than ten miles. The Wu army has surrounded Chencang from the northwest. The Wei army has also built a solid defense. It cannot be fought, but the atmosphere is very tense.

Because none of them knew whether a war would break out in the next moment.

Outside the city, the camp of Wu Jun Zhongjun.

Zhuge Liang was wearing armor with a commanding sword on his waist, and his temperament changed drastically. There was a hint of sharpness in his elegant temperament, and he sat cross-legged on the top of the podium.

The left and right columns are Ju Yi, Commander of the Central Army, Xu Shu, Acting Chief of Staff, Lu Xun, Deputy General of Staff, Xu Sheng, Commander of Zhanxiang Legion, Huang Gai, Chief of Staff, Fazheng, Chief of Staff of Bashu Army, Ke Bineng, Chief of Xianbei Army, Blood Wolf Legion Chief of Staff Pang Tong and the commanders of the various armies sat majestically.

Their expressions were a little gloomy.

This battle has come to this point. After a series of bloody battles, the results should have been reaped, but it was the beginning. For all of them, this result is not very satisfactory.
