Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

The next day, at the camp of the Han army in Yongcheng, it was still dark, and the night watchmen patrolled the camp despite the severe cold.All I could hear was a rush of hoofbeats from far to near.Several cavalry pawns galloped out of the camp, ready to stop the unknown rider.

The cavalry walked in and saw a man wearing a Han army uniform, with frost on the outside of the down jacket, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and he was precariously riding on his horse.This person is Ji Xi, who, as the leader of the scout team, took over the important task of conveying the military information without hesitation.

Ji Xi didn't sleep all night, and Ji Xi, who was suffering from the cold, watched the cavalry pawns responding, and fell headlong. Fortunately, he was supported by the cavalry pawns of the nearby Han army.

Ji Xi opened his lips that were purple from the cold, and said in a low voice: "Cao Rui raised his army to besiege the headquarters of General Zuo at Wuzhangyuan. There are tens of thousands of rebels. General Zuo stands firm and waits for reinforcements, and asks the army for quick support."

After finishing speaking, Ji Xi handed the token in his hand to the Han soldier and fell asleep.

Although Ji Xi fell into a coma, the Han army camp started to work, and quickly reported the confirmed military situation to Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang.

Compared with the soldiers of the Han army suffering from the cold, Liu Chan was snoring wrapped in a blanket, and was sleeping soundly, but he lacked a pillow.

Li Qiu, who was on duty at night, quickly stepped into the tent, looked at the sleepy Son of Heaven, and called softly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty~"

There were bursts of shouts in his ears, Liu Chan squinted his eyes, glanced at Li Qiu, and said, "Meng Pu, what's the matter?"

Li Qiu bowed his head and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, General Zuo has an urgent military message, saying that Cao Rui will besiege Wuzhangyuan with tens of thousands of people, and Sima Yi will also drive troops to attack General Cheqi's troops!"

Hearing this, the drowsy Liu Chan's head twitched and he lost all sleepiness. He got up and asked, "When did it happen? Did you report it to the prime minister?"

Li Qiu took off his robe from the shelf and put it on Liu Chan, saying: "What happened at noon yesterday was just delivered to the camp. The prime minister has already been notified, or he has already arrived at the big tent, and summoned all the generals."

"When did Prime Minister Shang go to sleep?" Liu Chan asked.

"According to the attendant's report, Prime Minister Shang reviewed the domestic political affairs delivered by Jiang Changshi last night, and fell asleep at the second quarter of Haishi (10:30)."

Zhuge Liang often stayed up late, went to bed late and got up early, either to review the government affairs of the internal government, or to deal with military affairs in the army.It was also fortunate to have Pan Jun as Zhuge Liang's deputy, otherwise, Zhuge Liang's burden would have been increased by half.Therefore, Pan Jun often lived next to Zhuge Liang's camp in the army to facilitate government affairs.

Getting Pan Jun back from Soochow was one of the few things Liu Chan thought he did the most wisely.

Liu Chan put on his boots and said, "Let Jiang Qing decide on his own. Otherwise, why did I appoint him as the governor of Liufu, Shang Shuling?"

"promise!"

"Do you have a specific number of enemy troops?"

Li Qiu shook his head and said, "Nothing, but in my opinion. The army led by Cao Rui may be an elite army."

Liu Chan put on his robe, tied his belt, washed briefly, and said, "First come to the big tent to talk, maybe there may be new military information delivered."

After speaking, Liu Chan took the cloak with velvet hat from the attendant, put it on, and headed towards the big tent against the wind and snow.Amidst the salutations and shouts of the crowd, Liu Chan walked into the big tent and sat down on it.

After discussing with everyone, Liu Chan got to the point, looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked, "Prime Minister, why did Ni Wei suddenly attack?"

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly, and said with a sneer: "Not long after Du Xi was dispatched to our army, Cao Rui led his troops to attack. It seems that Du Xi's mission was fake, but it was true to investigate the inside story of our army. Now Cao Rui knows that our army has people returning to their hometowns for a rotation , so we are here to attack each other."

Wu Yi stroked his beard to think about it, and said worriedly: "Now the enemy's troops are divided into two groups, attacking at the same time, and the left general is trapped in Wuzhangyuan. Our army is insufficient now, and our soldiers are afraid of the severe cold. If you dare to ask the prime minister, our army should How to deal with it?"

Zhuge Liang pointed to the information delivered by Huang Quan again, and said: "General Cheqi sent the latest military report, which was sent out yesterday evening. According to General Cheqi's observation across the river, there should be no less than [-] soldiers under Cao Rui's command. Most of them are elite. As for Sima Yi's mighty army, there are many soldiers, and there are at least [-] to [-] of them."

"From this point of view, Cao Rui should be the main force, and the soldiers are the elite of the Chinese army, so they want to besiege Wuzhangyuan. To break it now, we need to break the siege of Wuzhangyuan first, and the soldiers under He Wenchang will confront the Wei army. Wait until the weather is sunny and warm. , the soldiers who returned home returned to the army, and all the sons went north to fight against Wei Wei." Zhuge Liang said.

In the current situation, the enemy is outnumbered, and the war has just happened. Zhuge Liang has no more ideas. He can only calm everyone down and think about rescuing Wei Yan first.Then wait for the army to converge, and then consider defeating Cao Wei when the weather gets warmer.

Liu Chan nodded slightly, and said in harmony: "What the Prime Minister said is not unreasonable. Today's weather is gradually entering the early spring. If we can hold on for half a decade or more, and wait for the cold air in Guanzhong to dissipate, I will be able to show my heroism in Jingchu, Bashu. First of all, we should think of a strategy to rescue General Zuo, I wonder if you can get anything?"

Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Chan, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I can lead a large army to resist Sima Yi's soldiers, and select the general to lead the elite soldiers to Weinan to rescue General Zuo's troops."

Hearing this, Wu Yi cupped his hands and said, "Wu Yi understands the meaning of the Prime Minister. Your Majesty, I am willing to lead a sharp army to rescue General Zuo's troops."

Seeing Wu Yi's invitation to fight, Liu Chan felt suspicious.After all, Wu Yi has never been alone from the beginning to the end. Whether it is the battle of Hehuang or the battle of Chencang, Wu Yi is Wei Yan or Huang Quan's deputy.Now let him lead the army alone to rescue Wei Yan, which really makes Liu Chan a little worried.

Seeing that the emperor hesitated, Wu Yi turned to look at Zhuge Liang, hoping that the prime minister could speak.

Zhuge Liang glanced at Liu Chan, seeing that the emperor had the same idea as himself, he smiled and said, "Ziyuan (Wu Yi) wants to fight, your Majesty and Liang both know it. It's just that Liang rules the army, and it's difficult for Ziyuan to assist. I don't know what Ziyuan can do." Sui Liang, resist Sima Yi's army. Let Gongheng lead his troops to rescue General Zuo."

The Longyou soldiers under Huang Quan's command are strong and strong, good at using spears, and are used to the cold in the northwest.It is most appropriate for Huang Quan to rescue Wei Yan's army. Zhuge Liang led the Bashu soldiers to resist Sima Yi's army from the front.

Hearing this, Wu Yi was a little discouraged, and was just about to hand in his promise.Liu Chan said: "Since Wu Qing wants to rescue General Zuo, it is better to assist General Chariot and lead an army alone to achieve this. Or he can accompany the prime minister to resist Sima Yi."

"Ziyuan is not as good as assisting the chariot general, Liang can be assisted by Yuanxiong." Zhuge Liang agreed.

"I am willing to take orders." Wu Yi responded.

Liu Chan pondered for a while, and said: "The Prime Minister has something to say and wants to go north and enter Guanzhong. I think it's better to send all the sons to go back to the Tangluo Road and cut off the Wei army's back."

Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up, and he said slowly: "You can follow His Majesty's words and implement the strategy of flanking front and back."
