Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

After Wang Ping made up his plan, all the troops moved.Zhoutai led two thousand soldiers to reinforce Pingshi City, combined four thousand troops to guard the city, and used the imperial king to Ling 3000 soldiers; Duyang City was still guarded by Wei Hu, adding one thousand soldiers, and winning [-] soldiers to fight against Guo Huai. Wan Dajun.

Ju Fu led four thousand troops to reinforce Wuyin City, which was stationed on Zhongyin Mountain. Together with the three thousand soldiers in Wuyin City, there were only 7000 people, but they had to confront Cao Shuang, who commanded an army of [-]; On the other hand, he led [-] cavalry to Biyang City to face Tian Yu, who commanded an army of [-].

15 vs. [-], such a huge disparity in strength was undoubtedly a test of Wang Ping's command and operation.

On the Zhongyin Mountain, there are dense forests, lush vegetation, and few people.However, today is different from the past. A large number of Han troops marched here, planting flags all over the mountains and plains, stretching for more than ten miles, and flying birds circled in the sky, heading south for a long time.

A gust of cold wind blows, the sound of banners and flags hunting, accompanied by the rustling of leaves, it seems that thousands of troops and horses are walking through the mountains and forests.The red scarves tied on the branches fluttered in the wind, as if soldiers of the Han army were walking among the trees.

Ju Fu led thousands of soldiers to bluff in the mountains. When the Wei army arrived nearby, he took a few cronies and went out a little bit.Find a bulging hill as an observation point, looking at the Wei army camp in the distance.

Through the branches, Ju Fu saw Wushui shuttled between the mountains, bypassed Wuyin City, and submerged into Ma Renbei to the southwest.If you distinguish carefully, you can see that there are traces of land reclamation around Ma Renpi, which is the trace of military and civilian farming in Wuyin City.

Ma Renpi was built by Zhao Xinchen, the prefect of Nanyang in the Western Han Dynasty. It diverted water from the bardo and Yinbei mountains and poured it into the pond. It is a valley-shaped water conservancy project. After all repairs, it can irrigate tens of thousands of hectares of fields.After the Han Dynasty attacked Jingzhou, it was slightly repaired, but it was only used for military settlements.

There is only one way for Cao Shuang and others to reach Jingzhou, and that is to follow Wushui through the mouth of Huangshan Gorge and break through Wuyin City.However, this road is not wide. It winds and undulates among the discontinuous Tongbai Mountains. Affected by the mountains on both sides, the area is not large. It is only wide when you go around Ma Renpi and under Wuyin City.

Zhongyin Mountain, where Jufu is stationed, is more than ten miles south of Wuyin City, at the corner of Wuyin City.

Due to the terrain, the army led by Cao Shuang had to camp among the narrow roads and outside Wuyin City.The [-] army stretched for dozens of miles, and there were countless Wei army camps, densely packed with ant-sized Wei army soldiers shuttling through the camps and valleys, such a huge momentum could not help but be daunting.

Gou Funian and the few thousand soldiers under his command had a solemn expression, and a wave of fear struck in his heart.If the enemy army sees through their own strategy, these soldiers under their own will not be enough for them to kill.

"General?" Lieutenant Yangwei Jia Yuan saw the huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, so he couldn't help asking worriedly.

Ju Fu suppressed the tension in his heart, and said calmly: "According to the arrangement of the chariot general, order the soldiers to hold the flag high and run and shout among the mountain roads."

After a pause, he cheered up and said: "There are clouds in the art of war, and there are situations such as Juejian, patio, sky prison, sky Luo, sky sinking, and sky gap. Today, the Wei army is camped in the mouth of the Huangshan Gorge, which is in the gap of the sky. , it will be difficult to win. And if we don't withdraw quickly, our army will be exhausted, and it will wipe out the entire army."

"promise!"

Jia Yuan listened to the word Cheqi General, half of the fear in his heart disappeared.He was able to have what he is today thanks to the chariot general who took him to kill Zhang Yun before he was awarded the Marquis of Guannei. He is convinced of this fierce man.

When Jia Yuan stepped back, Ju Fu let go of the hilt of his sword, and suddenly found that his palms holding the hilt were covered with sweat.

After a while, the army drums rang out in the mountains and forests, and a large number of horse teams ran in the mountains, their tails dragged the branches, and the smoke and dust rolled up high;The elite cavalry went down the mountain to raid the formation, summoned friends and companions, and hunted and killed Wei cavalry.

In the Wei army camp, all the generals looked at the scale of a large army running on the mountain from a distance, and the rangers galloped into their own side without any timidity.

Chief Shi Li Sheng took a breath and said, "Wang Ping, don't you want Jingzhou? With such a scale, there should be tens of thousands of people. How can the other three groups Wang Ping stop?"

Deng Yang also frowned, and said: "According to what the Viper Army said, the Han army stationed in Jingzhou has no more than 3 soldiers. According to the way of using troops, it is extremely difficult for them to station in the outer city instead of retreating to the Wancheng area. Dangerous. If any one of the four roads is broken, Jingzhou will no longer be owned by the western bandits. Wang Ping, as a general of bandit chariots and cavalry, is in charge of the country, how dare he take such risks?"

According to their deduction, the Han army will shrink due to insufficient troops, waiting for rescue.If you divide your troops to guard the four cities, you will inevitably face your own army with abundant troops, and it is difficult for the Han army to hold on to it.

As long as any one of the roads breaks through the Jingzhou defense line, they can respond to other roads, forming a chain reaction in an instant, and the Han army in Jingzhou will collapse.And retreating to Wancheng, trading space for time, can also buy time for reinforcements to arrive.

Of course, if there are sufficient troops, defending the outer city is the best choice.But if there is not enough troops to defend the outer city, it is really courting death.

After hesitating for a while, Li Sheng said: "Could it be that the Viper's information is wrong, and the soldiers in Jingzhou should be not only [-], but more, maybe [-] or [-]."

"If the Viper's information is wrong, with the momentum of the troops on the mountain and the defense of the cities, there should be [-] to [-] troops." Deng Yang analyzed.

Listening to everyone's analysis, Cao Shuang didn't feel very irritable, and asked, "What should we do now? How many thieves and soldiers are there?"

Joining the army Yang Wei came up and said: "General, is it possible that this is a suspicious strategy of the thieves, and there are really [-] people in Jingzhou."

Cao Shuang widened his eyes, pointed at the grass and trees on Zhongyin Mountain that were suspected to be soldiers of the Han army, and said, "Do you think Wang Ping is a porpoise? Defending the outer city with [-] people is the worst strategy among the worst. How dare you order the cavalry to go out and cruise around."

Yang Wei squinted his eyes and looked at the dark Bardo Mountain, not knowing what to say.

Cao Shuang took a deep breath and asked, "Taichu, when our army first arrived here, the soldiers were tired and encountered most of the enemy. What should we do now?"

Xia Houxuan looked at Zhongyin Mountain, pondered for a while, and said: "Temporarily retreat five miles to set up camp, and order people to be on guard against the Han army on Zhongyin Mountain to prevent Han cavalry from attacking and disturbing. He also ordered people to ask how the other three roads are doing, and whether they can also find the Han army. ?”

"What is the meaning of Taichu?"

Xia Houxuan walked around with his head down, and analyzed: "Xuan thought that Wang Ping dared to defend the outer city, which means that his soldiers in Jingzhou may be more than [-], but definitely not more than [-]. Our army might as well wait and see the situation of the other three roads and repair them. Weapons are used to attack the city. If Wang Ping leads a large army to stop me, the other three routes can also attack the city by force. Even if this is a suspicious soldier, but with the strength of Wuyin City, weapons are needed to break the city."

After Wang Ping took over Jingzhou, he sent soldiers and civilians to build Wuyin City and strengthen the city. The walls around it are high and deep, connected to Wushui in the south, and close to Ma Renpi. The terrain is dangerous and difficult to attack.If you want to attack, you basically need to use siege equipment.

Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the period of repairing equipment in the middle to find out how the Han army is, and see if the other three roads have also encountered a large number of Han troops, and see if they need to adjust their strategic deployment.At the same time, rest the soldiers and wait for their physical strength to recover before attacking.

Cao Shuang nodded slightly, and ordered: "Order to monitor the bandit army in Zhongyin Mountain. The whole army retreats five li to set up camp, repair their equipment, and attack Wuyin City."

"promise!"

Looking at Wei Jun who showed signs of retreating, Jia Yuan, who was holding the rein, let out a long breath, his back shirt was soaked with sweat.Then, keeping his instructions in mind, he chased after him for a while, until a large number of Wei cavalry were dispatched, and then he returned to the army.

"Han Ji·Guliu, Liao and Deng Biography": "At the time of the battle of Jingzhou,...it was so refreshing to Wuyin, and Xia Houxuan climbed up to look at the king's master, and saw that the army was in order, the soldiers were elite, and the knights were galloping; and looked at Zhongyin Mountain. The grass and trees take human form, Gu Weixuan said: "Looking at their ranks, they are formidable enemies. What do you mean by few? "Of course there is fear."
