The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

Chapter 571 Xiahou Juan's Secret
"Sima Zhonghu, the empress of civilization, is it really different?"

With Sima Yi alone, Liu Feng has a better chance of winning against him.

If there is another Wang Yuanji added, it would be careless, and it needs to be carefully planned.

Liu Feng had just won the counterattack of public opinion. After hearing that Sima Yi had withdrawn his troops, he couldn't help but wonder whether Wang Yuanji and Sima Yi had planned to make peace with each other.

Sima Yi was able to leave the name of Zhonghu in history, obviously not only because of his strength of forbearance, but more likely because he had a long-term vision in assessing the situation and was also very decisive.

For example, this time, if the commanders of the Wei army were replaced by Guo Huai and Wang Ling, even if they felt something was wrong, they might not have the courage to retreat immediately, and Sima Yi was the only one who was safe after taking the initiative to retreat.

Compared with Liu Feng's magnanimity, calmness and long-term vision, Deng Ai, Deng Zhi, Chen Shi, E Huan and other generals of the Han army, as well as Jiang Wan, Dong Yun, Yang Xi and others in the prime minister's mansion, stamped their feet and beat their chests. .

In order to achieve the intention of outflanking Sima Yi's army, they set up pocket formations in Xiong'er Mountain, Nanxiang, Xinye, and Yiyang little by little. When they were about to tighten the rope at the mouth of the pockets, Sima Yi suddenly slipped away.

"Old thief Sima, who is as timid as a mouse, is also worthy of being the captain and general of the Wei State?" The long-awaited Han-Wei Nanyang War has just begun, and it will end. The disappointment of the Han army generals is palpable.

"The old thief Sima has escaped. We chased and killed Wancheng, Xuchang, and Luoyang." In anger, the generals asked Liu Feng one after another, intending to raise troops to attack Wancheng and annihilate Chen Qian's [-] Wei army. .

"Be safe and don't make noise. Nanyang County is not enough for you to occupy such a large area. First occupy the places that Wei Jun gave up one by one, and don't be taken away by others."

In reply to the letters of Deng Ai, Deng Zhi and others, Liu Feng bluntly refuted the blind impulsive thought.It is pointed out that the strong attack on Wancheng is likely to call for a protracted siege battle, which is not very confident, and for the Han army who has just arrived in Nanyang County, the pressure on logistics supplies is great.

Liu Feng also repeatedly emphasized that we must continue to adhere to the general policy of encircling the cities from the countryside.

From a longer-term strategic perspective, if the Han army completely occupies Nanyang County, the distance from Nanyang to Xuchang in the northeast direction is only [-] kilometers.To the north, you can go east out of Luyang along the Nanxiang Pass Road, take the "Three Crows Road" and drive directly to Luoyang. This is a "shortcut to Luoyang".

At the same time, Tangbai Valley, Fuyang, Nieyang, Dengxian and other places are all good land for farming. After planting the land in these places, with the grain and fodder, Chen Qian of Wancheng is a besieged and isolated city. Dead crab, only cooked portion.

Therefore, Sima Yi's retreat was not all a bad thing for the Shu Han. The next battle might be harder to fight, but at least half of Nanyang County fell into his pocket.

As for Wancheng's hard nail, just pull it out slowly.

He, Liu Feng, was not Zhuge Liang, so he insisted on dragging his sick body to the north.

-

Wancheng.

Chen Qian, General An Dong of the Wei State, sat guarding the isolated city, feeling nervous and excited. When he received Sima Yi's order to guard Wancheng, Chen Qian still didn't believe it.

In the eyes of others, defending the city alone is a life-and-death chore.

From Chen Qian's point of view, this is not the case. What he sees is a chance to become famous.

At that time, Cao Ren, the general who conquered the South, stood firm in Jiangling, and faced the attack of Zhou Yu, the governor of the Eastern Wu, and persisted for several years without retreating. This made Cao Ren a great reputation.

But now, Chen Qian felt that he could do the same.

In Wancheng City, there are grains left by Sima Yi that can feed more than [-] Wei soldiers, iron smelting workshops for forging armor, tall city walls that were built and reinforced, and [-] Jingzhou Wei soldiers who died. I feel like I can't hold on.

Chen Qian had a fierce fighting spirit. He had been actively preparing for the whole winter, waiting for Liu Feng to come to attack the city, but to his great disappointment, not only Liu Feng did not come, even his old opponent Deng Ai seemed to have disappeared. same.

When Wei Jun's scouts went out of the city to investigate, Chen Qian was almost pissed off.

Liu Feng was busy inspecting the newly occupied counties of Nanyang, while Deng Ai led a group of soldiers to help the people build canals in Tangbai Valley. Seeing this posture, they were completely preparing for a protracted war.

"If the hearts of the people in Nanyang return to Shu, Wancheng cannot be defended." Sensing that the situation is not good, Chen Qian discussed with Lieutenant Qianhong with a bitter face. The two finally decided to dispatch a small force to attack The place where the Shu army garrisoned fields.

The Wei army team went out of the city to attack and harass.

Deng Ai also responded with a small group of elite troops. For a while, the Han and Wei armies in Nanyang County continued to fight, and wars broke out everywhere.

When this mutual attack lasted until February, Chen Qian finally couldn't bear it any longer. The Wei army lost nearly [-] soldiers in the continuous conflict.

If this continues, it is obvious that Wei Jun's gains outweigh the losses. Deng Ai has supplementary soldiers, but he is fighting one less.

Rather than spending unnecessary, it is better to guard the city honestly. Anyway, it is impossible for the Shu army to take the risk of attacking the city.

Chen Qian was honest.

Deng Ai was watching in Wancheng, and Liu Feng felt relieved after having a deep talk with Deng Ai.

Deng Ai, who has gradually matured, has shown his comprehensive ability in both civil and military affairs after returning to his hometown of Nanyang County.

In terms of farming, Deng Ai is very talented. Historically, he had outstanding achievements when he was serving as Diannong Gongcao and Diannong Duwei, so he got the opportunity to be further promoted.

-

After Liu Feng toured around Nanyang County, he returned to Xiangyang with Xia Houjuan. Zhen Mi, Mrs. Du, Qin Lang and others rushed to meet each other.

Mrs. Zhen and Du's looks have improved a lot recently, and the losses along the way have been recuperated and made up for. When Liu Feng met them, he couldn't help sighing that people are different.

One is the incarnation of Luoshen.

One is that praise is different.

Such a charming woman is rare in the world, but this time, they all came to Jingzhou.

Zhen Mi thought carefully, seeing Xia Houjuan's rosy complexion, as if she had rejuvenated, she couldn't help being curious, this woman can still look younger when she is in her mid-mature, this must be a secret.

Xia Houjuan had a ghost in his heart, and after hurriedly saying hello to everyone, he hurriedly found an excuse to visit Zhang Xingcai and Zhang Ying and left.

It was the first time Mrs. Du saw Liu Feng. In her impression, Liu Feng was not too young. He had been fighting abroad for many years. He was probably a middle-aged man with dimples on his face and tired eyes.

But now that I saw it with my own eyes, I found that it was not the case at all.

Liu Feng's appearance was not much different from that of the younger generals of the Han army. If it weren't for the mature man's breath exuding from his body, Mrs. Du would have mistakenly thought that the person in front of him was not Liu Feng himself.

"Prime Minister Liu, I heard that he used to be the elder brother of Taoist Longhushan. The Taoism is very profound. Is it possible that there are some secrets for maintaining and prolonging life? If this can teach one or two methods, then..."

Madam Du's heart was pounding. As she got older, she cared more and more about her appearance.
