Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

In Wuzhangyuan, Ji Xi and more than ten people came galloping from the east, and the smoke and dust billowed along the way.

"drive!"

Ji Xi swung his whip and whipped it on the horse's buttocks.The horse suffered from pain, and then sped up and galloped forward. The horse's hooves stepped up and down through the martial arts water, and the water splashed in all directions, splashing one after another.

"Royal!"

Walking to the front of the camp, Ji Xi slowed down his horse, got off his horse, took out the badge in his arms, waved it in front of the guards, and said anxiously: "There is an emergency situation, where is General Zuo?"

"General Zuo is training soldiers in the school yard." The guard replied.

Ji Xi ran directly to the school grounds, walked up to another one-eyed guard, paused, patted him on the shoulder, and said concernedly: "Be smart, there will be a big fight next."

"No, brother-in-law, you should also be more careful." Wang Jie, who was holding a halberd, nodded and responded.

Since moving to Longxi County, Ji Xi has been fighting with Wei Yan for a long time, and has been promoted from Shichang to team leader.And his brother-in-law was so pretentious that when he followed Wei Yan out of the Saihu captives, he was shot blind by a barbarian and left the front line from then on, which is embarrassing.

Ji Xi trotted all the way to the school field, and saw thousands of soldiers practicing formations and martial arts, while Wei Yan and Jiang Wei chatted from time to time on the high platform.

"Report to General Zuo, the Wei army has changed." Ji Xi said panting.

Wei Yan also stopped talking with Jiang Wei, turned to look at Ji Xi, and said, "What's the military situation?"

Ji Xi clasped his hands and reported: "Xiahouba's troops have already marched towards our army, and according to my estimate, their troops are no more than twenty miles away from our army."

Wei Yan frowned slightly, and asked: "How many people are there in the enemy army? Only Xiahouba's troops?"

Ji Xi pondered a little, and said: "I don't dare to say for sure. According to my investigation, Xiahouba's troops should be dispatched by the whole army. As for whether there are other large troops, I don't know for the time being."

"What does Boyue think our army should do?" Wei Yan waved his hand, signaling Ji Xi to step back and rest, and asked.

Jiang Wei held his long sword in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Sima Yi raised his troops to attack the chariot general. This summer's Houba's attack on our army should have the same intention. If this is the case, Xiahouba has the intention to attack me, how can our army be afraid?" In other words, with the power of our soldiers in Liangzhou and the danger of water with our martial arts, we should be able to defeat them."

Wei Yan laughed loudly, and said with satisfaction: "Bo Yue knows what I mean. Bo Yue guarded the camp and led [-] soldiers out of the camp to fight."

"promise!"

The courage of Wei Yan and Jiang Wei to fight lies in the terrain of Wuzhangyuan and Wugongshui.Wuzhangyuan is bordered by the Qinling Mountains in the south and the Weishui River in the north. There are deep ditches in the east and west, and the passage to Wuzhangyuan is only feasible on the north slope.The Wugongshui is a deep ditch to the east of Wuzhangyuan, and the Han army can temporarily block the Wei army by virtue of the river's advantage.After all, it is not a good strategy to avoid and not fight, and let the enemy besiege.

……

"The thief's ranger has arrived on the other side of martial arts."

A scout of the Han army with a banner came from a distance and reported loudly to Wei Yan.

Wei Yan rode on a Liangzhou horse, squinted his eyes, stared at Wei Qi who appeared on the other side of the river with a pair of sharp eagle eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Let Wei Liang and Zhang Yan strictly organize the army to keep out the bandits! "

Rangers usually cruise around ten miles around the army, so although the army of thieves has not yet arrived, seeing the arrival of the rangers, it is basically known that the army of thieves will arrive.

"promise!"

Two of the more than ten cavalry behind Wei Yan were separated, the horse neighed, and there was a rush of hoofbeats from near to far.

A series of orders were issued from Wei Yan's mouth, and the flags of the Han army were waved, and the formation of the Han army on the west bank of Wugong River became orderly.

Not long after the Han army was reorganized, the front of the Wei army on the other side of the river arrived at Wugongshui, facing the Han army across the river.Immediately afterwards, more and more Wei troops appeared on the other side of the river, and a large number of Wei army infantry formed an army formation under the command of their respective generals.A large number of yellow flags are flying across the east bank of Wugong River.

Due to the winter, the water level of Wugong water drops, and it is far less high than in summer and autumn. In some sections, the water level of Wugong water is even below people's ankles.Therefore, for the Han army, defensive martial arts levels are more difficult than usual.

"Winter! Winter! Winter!"

The rumbling marching drum suddenly sounded in the formation of the Wei army on the other side of the river, and the soldiers of the Wei army were preparing to cross the Wugong River under Wei Yan's gaze.

Wei Yan pointed the whip in his hand to the other side of the river, and commanded in a deep voice: "Let the army move forward, and the crossbowmen step forward and shoot at them."

"promise!"

The herald waved the flag, and the crossbowmen of the Han army walked to the shore in neat steps under the command of the general, loaded the crossbow, and waited for the command of the general.

Facing the approaching range of the crossbowmen of the Han army, although the soldiers of the Wei army quickened their pace, the shieldmen in the front row still maintained their formation to prevent the crossbowmen of the Han army from causing major damage to their side.

"Fire arrows!"

The Marquis of the Han Army looked at the soldiers of the Wei Army who entered the range, waved the command flag, and shouted angrily.

Listening to the familiar sound of the golden drum, the crossbowmen of the Han army pulled the trigger of the crossbow and shot the arrows loaded on the crossbow.The dense rain of arrows whizzed away, or landed on the shield of the Wei army, fell into the water; or shot through the gaps in the shield and wounded the soldiers of the Wei army.

After several rounds of arrows were missed, the soldiers of the Wei army approached the west bank of Wugong River.At this time, they suddenly quickened their pace, and their formation was slightly loose. They stepped on the icy cold river, raised their spears, waved their swords and shields, and rushed towards the Han army on the river bank.

The soldiers of the Han army who had already been prepared raised their spears, densely packed like hedgehogs, forming a dense array of spears to meet them.The two armies fought together on the river beach, a lot of blood dripped on the sand and stones, and the surviving people wailed on the ground.

On the east bank, Xia Houba held the reins tightly, and his horse was walking back and forth on the bank, watching the battle situation anxiously.He hoped that before Cao Rui arrived, he could beat Wei Yan back by himself.

Cao Rui led Jiang Ji, Xiahouba, Cao Shuang, Bian Lan and other generals, and led the Chinese army's elite [-] soldiers.And Sima Yi led the rest of the troops to march with Cao Rui from the south to the north at the same time, with Guo Huai as the vanguard to attract Huang Quan's army.

Looking at the scorching battle, Xia Houba gritted his teeth and decided to lead all the infantry to attack.Encouraged by the joining of the new force and Xiahouba's leadership, the right formation of the Han army began to stir up, and the front line showed signs of retreating.

This scene did not escape Wei Yan's eyes. Just when he decided to wave his hand to signal the reserve team to press on, Ji Xi came rushing from nowhere and reported loudly: "To General Zuo, False Emperor Cao Rui The army is about to arrive, Xiahouba should be its vanguard."

As soon as this remark came out, Wei Yan's face changed suddenly. This information was too exciting.If you don't retreat now, you may be doomed to join Cao Rui in the battle with Xiahouba when he arrives.

Ji Xi thought that Wei Yan was dissatisfied with Cao Rui's information so late, and clasped his hands and explained: "General Zuo, most of the rangers I send are driven away by the Wei people. It's rare for the Wei army to keep secrets. The scouts can only be deployed to the east bank for thirty miles. This man It is better to withdraw from Qinling, bring this news back, and hope that the general will forgive me."

There was no satellite map on the ancient battlefield, and scouts went out to search for information, and basically relied on scouts to search for enemies.If the army is compared to a person, the scouts are the ears and eyes of the person.At the same time, the enemy army will also send out cavalry, and the two sides drive each other away, and they are also searching for information about each other.

Wei Yan looked solemn, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, step back. You did a good job, and I will look for General Jiang after the war to record my credit."

"promise!"

Wei Yan looked at the anxious battle, and ordered: "Let Jiang Wei take over our army, and Wei Liang will be the rear of the army."

"promise!"

After receiving the military order, Jiang Wei led a thousand cavalrymen from the camp to cover Wei Yan's left and right sides.At the same time, Wei Liang, who was at the front, fought and retreated.

Wei Yan did not return to the camp first, but led some soldiers and horses, preparing to retreat alternately with Wei Liang. Jiang Wei led the army to support the flanks.

Having said that, Xia Houba still did not intend to let Wei Liang go, and chased and killed Wei Liang for a while, until he saw that Wei Yan's army was in order, then he stopped and did not dare to pursue.Under the escort of Jiang Wei, Wei Yan was able to return to the camp smoothly.

Two hours later, in the afternoon.The yellow wave rolled towards Wuzhangyuan and crossed the Wugong River. The soldiers of the Wei army were stationed between Wuzhangyuan and the Weishui River, preparing to besiege Wei Yan.At the same time, Wei Yan also secretly sent scouts to ask for help from Zhuge Liang's army in Weibei, and informed Cao Rui of the news of his personal expedition to Weinan.

Due to Wei Yan's retreat, Xia Houba won the first battle and captured nearly 500 people from the Shu army. The Wei army successfully completed the first step of the plan.Sima Yi's army from Weibei also arrived at camp a dozen li away from Meixian County, so Huang Quan did not dare to act rashly, so he could only hide temporarily and wait for the opportunity.
