Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1693 Besieging Zhang Feisan

Taiyuan.

"how is this possible?"

Liu Bei looked at the urgently transmitted news from eight hundred miles in his hand, and trembled all over, almost gushing out his blood.

He thought he would lose.

But never thought it would happen so soon.

Whether it was his slow reaction, or the strength of the Ming army, was beyond his cognition.

The eldest son city is not an ordinary city, it is a county city.

How can it be so easy to conquer the county, and Ju Yi is not an ordinary general, he is one of the famous generals in the world, and he was once the number one general in Hebei.

If he was so easy to deal with, he would have already eaten Hebei over the years.

However, within a few days, the eldest son city that Ju Yi personally led the army to guard had already been killed. Losing the eldest son city, the situation of Shangdang was immediately unfavorable to the Yan army.

"Gu still thinks too highly of Ju Yi!" Liu Bei gritted his teeth.

He himself doesn't like the surrendered general Ju Yi, but since he surrendered, he also uses him in the spirit of waste utilization, gives him a little respect, and hopes that he can work hard for himself.

But just because you don't like this person doesn't mean you don't like his ability.

He still trusts Ju Yi's ability, otherwise he would not let Ju Yi help Guan Yu and cover Guan Yu's attack in Hanoi.

But Hanoi was still fighting, and Shangdang was defeated.

This time, the whole situation became dangerous.

He gritted his teeth: "I must order Yun Chang to withdraw!"

Not to mention the elite under Guan Yu's command, Guan Yu alone can't afford to lose, his wife and children are like clothes, and brothers are like brothers and feet. No matter whether Liu Daer is acting or sincere, from a historical point of view, he still has his heart and soul for his brothers.

Otherwise, he doesn't need to entrust Gu Baidi City.

It wasn't the death of the two brothers that stimulated him, maybe he could continue to run the business step by step, and if he survived for another ten years, maybe it might not be the Sima family that unified the world.

"Your Majesty!"

Dressed in green robes, the scribes wearing bamboo hats cupped their hands in salute, and then began to remonstrate, saying: "It is not a good thing for the second general to withdraw at this time!"

"Sir, this moment and that moment!"

Liu Bei said: "Shangdang will definitely not be able to take it anymore. Once the support of Shangdang is lost, the second brother will lose the defense of the flanks. In addition, the food road will be easily cut off. At that time, he will have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he will be trapped to death. Hanoi!"

"Although the Shangdang is important, there is a way in and out of Hanoi, and that is Wei Jun. The relationship between us and Cao Wei is quite harmonious. Let them let go of Wei Jun's passage. At most, the second general will return without success. If you want to besiege and kill him, the Ming army may not be able to do it even if you have to pay a huge price, and the Ming army will seldom do things that consume too much damage!"

The scribe analyzed and said: "I'm not really worried about the second general now. Even if the second general is besieged, at worst, he will lose his troops and lose his general, and he will have a chance to withdraw, but..."

There was a worry in his pupils, which he couldn't hide.

"Are you worried about Yide?"

Liu Bei reacted quickly.

"The three generals have already entered the Shangdang, but Ju Yi's army was defeated too quickly. The three generals had no time to react. When caught off guard, his tens of thousands of elites may not be able to survive. Even him, they will be surrounded by the Ming army. middle!"

The scribe said: "Even if we want to reinforce, we will be beyond our reach!"

"Damn!"

Liu Bei quickly became irritable. He paced back and forth, and his expression became more and more gloomy: "This king is too careless. When the eldest son city asks for help, he should go south quickly at all costs!"

"We have also arranged for reinforcements to go south, but it is estimated to be too slow. Even if we can reach the Shangdang border now, it is difficult to go any further. If we go in, we will be surrounded by the Ming army!"

The scribe said: "It will take some time for the main force to assemble. The far water cannot save the near fire. We may not be able to save the three generals!"

This time, in the face of the Ming court, all the princes from all walks of life have learned the lessons, and they all came out. For the first time, Yan State gathered all its troops here in Taiyuan.

It is the intention to go south to break through the defense of the Ming army in one fell swoop, and go straight into the pass.

However, it will take time for the main forces of the ministries to assemble.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu each ordered a group of soldiers to go south, which was to open the way, but they still underestimated the reaction of the Ming army, directly defeated Shangdang, and wrapped the two groups of troops in their own encirclement.

Now the main force of the two vanguards are in trouble.

"No, we must not let Yide be in danger!"

If it was someone else, Liu Bei could bear it, but now, Liu Bei couldn't bear it. His two brothers are still very important to him.

Everyone has some people or things they care about. Liu Bei is used to pretending, puts on the mask of a gentleman, and puts reputation first. He has long been inseparable from this persona.

But it doesn't mean that he is cold by nature. He also has people he cares about. For brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he also gave up because of utilitarianism, especially Guan Yu.

Guan Yu fell into the Wei camp back then, so why didn't he take risks for his own selfishness?

But time will change some people's minds. The guilt of these years made him care more about his brother, and he also cares more about Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

So when Liu Bei was impulsive: "No matter what, we have to leave immediately, and immediately send orders to all ministries, no matter how integrated, prepare to go south. This king will come to a king against king with the Ming army!"

At this time, only by forcing out the main force of Mujing, perhaps Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's two vanguard main forces can ease the pressure.

"promise!"

The orderly quickly conveyed the military order.

"Gongsun Du's main force has been going south for some time, when will it be able to enter Henan from Hulao Pass?" Liu Bei asked.

"It depends on Wei Jun's cooperation!"

Scholar said: "However, there hasn't been much news in recent days, which makes me a little worried. I'm not worried about whether Wei Jun will interfere with it, but just worried about Gongsun Du!"

"Will he betray the water?"

"No way!" The scribe shook his head: "But it will delay time, be wise and protect yourself. He surrendered to the king, not sincerely, but there is nothing he can do. But in Liaodong, he is also a hero. How could he easily submit to the banner of the king? Maybe in order to preserve the strength of my Liaodong Army, I will hold down time and delay the rhythm of the war as much as possible, so as not to let myself become the arrow that the king shoots with no return!"

"This dog, you have too many thoughts!"

Liu Bei said coldly.

"Your Majesty, you can continue to give him orders to ensure the pressure on him. Isn't his son in the imperial camp? Put it down, go to the front line, and tell him that if he doesn't go up, let his son go up!"

The scribe said gloomyly.

A counselor from Xiliang has a dark heart. To be able to go through this troubled time and step by step to the present, even if Xiliang has fallen, can still be relied on by others. Naturally, it is not only wisdom and ability, but more A ruthless heart.

He should not play this method very slipperily.

When Dong Zhuo was under his command, those generals all depended on their strength, but even if their strength could overwhelm them, how many people would disobey Dong Zhuoyang, and he was always submissive.

A Gongsun Du cannot escape from his palm.

"Is this plan going too far!" Liu Bei was not kind, but he was concerned about his own reputation. He established himself in the world and his reputation came first.

"Your Majesty, at this very moment, it is the time of the battle of life and death, and you must not have half of a woman's benevolence!" The scribe said softly.

"it is good!"

Liu Bei nodded. He also knew that this battle would either destroy the momentum of the Ming court to rule the world, continue to maintain the situation where Yan Guo sits on the north and south of the country and the Central Plains Jiangdong quarters the world, or loses the momentum and is taken by the Ming court. With the encroachment of each step, the Daoming army has been dominating the world.

At this time, the means are no longer important, but the result is important.

"Report!"

At this time, there was a roar outside.

"Enter!"

"Your Majesty, the King of Wei personally wrote the secret letter!"

"Submit it!" Liu Bei exchanged glances with the scholar when he heard the words. They both had doubts in their eyes. They were all thinking, what is Cao Mengde planning at this time?

"promise!"

This top-secret letter written by Cao Cao himself was unfolded in front of Liu Bei.

He looked very carefully.

After reading it, he handed it to the scribe.

"Look, do you think it's feasible?" Liu Bei asked softly.

The scribe also took a closer look, with a casual smirk on his lips, and said softly: "Since the king of Wei wrote the letter himself, it may not be fake, and the king of Wei is not a person who is willing to suffer. At this time, he wants to break the letter." It is not impossible to risk your life and fight the Ming army to the death!"

"Gu never thought that he dared to do this!"

Liu Bei carried his hands on his back, sighed slightly, and there was a complex light flickering in his eyes: "Gu thinks he is no less than him, but compared to his courage and action, Gu is still not as good as him, if he is above him, Not necessarily so courageous!"

He has always believed that he is no worse than Cao Cao, but sometimes in comparison, he feels that he is still not as decisive as Cao Cao in many things.

"This battle may really be possible!"

The scribe took a deep breath and said calmly: "But the premise is that we can cooperate well. Your Majesty, we need to entangle the main force of the Ming army and attract their attention to us!"

"Ok!"

Liu Bei nodded and said: "Now is the key to life and death. As Cao Mengde said, if we still can't trust each other at this moment, how can we talk about a war? Since we have an alliance, we should work together. He Cao Mengde has the heart to fight with his back. , How can I fall behind!"

His expression became more and more resolute: "The main force of our army, including the civilians who transported the luggage, are all going south, with an army of 50, and the momentum is about to rise. In addition, we are urging Gongsun to enter Henan as quickly as possible. Only in this way can we Quickly entangled all the main forces of the Ming army!"

A glint of hope appeared in his pupils: "Before, I thought that we were at a disadvantage, and it was hard to turn around. Now, it seems that we still don't know who is the turtle in the urn!"

..................................................................

The eldest son city, the western suburbs.

This area seems to have become a place of war that is gaining momentum, and soldiers and horses from all sides are moving closer here.

Yan Jun seemed a little silent.

Tens of thousands of Zhang Fei's troops gathered in a simple camp built. He knew that Ju Yi had been defeated, but he didn't respond. First, he didn't withdraw, and second, he didn't attack the city.

Stand still.

This made the Ming army a little confused.

Ming Jun also fell silent.

The silence of the two sides was only shortening the distance between the two sides, but an encirclement circle had basically been formed, and the Yan army was surrounded.

At this time, the two forces of the Yan army joined together.

"Ju Yi, the defeated general, pay homage to the three generals!"

In front of Zhang Fei, Ju Yi kept his posture very low. If he loses, he loses. There is nothing to say. At their level, any sophistry is just a way of incompetence.

"In a duel on the battlefield, the outcome is unpredictable. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. General Ju Yi doesn't need to worry about it!" Zhang Fei's pupils flickered fiercely, but he quickly suppressed it.

If it was usual, he would just whip past him at this time, and he would not have thought much of Ju Yi. Now that Ju Yi has ruined their Yan army, it is strange that he is in a good mood.

But if you have a plan, you must have patience.

But he didn't know that the more he pretended, the more strange he looked, which made Ju Yi a little surprised. He had a thorough understanding of Zhang Fei's character, and he had already planned to bear the humiliation.

But I didn't expect that this situation would happen. Not only was he not punished, but he was also comforted by Zhang Fei, which made him a little flattered.

"In this battle, I was defeated by someone. If I can get out of the siege, I will personally plead guilty to the king!" No matter how many thoughts Zhang Fei had, Ju Yi wanted to stabilize Zhang Fei first, so he didn't think about it any further.

He cupped his hands and said: "Three generals, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, we should withdraw quickly, it is the right way!"

"You, how many soldiers and horses are left?"

"The last general defeated the eldest son city, and the main force of more than [-] people was almost completely defeated. Only the first to enter the camp survived, and the number of soldiers and horses was less than [-] men!"

Ju Yi said in shame.

Zhang Fei frowned. He still overestimated Ju Yi. He thought that Ju Yi would be able to save at least five or six thousand main forces, but unexpectedly, there were only less than two thousand sons left.

What can two thousand soldiers and horses do on this huge battlefield where more than [-] generals are fighting.

But it's better than nothing.

This is not the time to turn his face, after all, he still needs to use Ju Yi's bones to jump out of the encirclement.

"Climb to be invincible first. This general has heard of it. The general who was able to fight out from the encirclement of the Ming army must be the first to ascend and make meritorious service!"

Zhang Fei did not doubt Ju Yi too much. It is not a strange thing that Ju Yi's main force collapsed and he was able to kill him.

After all, Zhang Fei still did not raise the height of the Ming army. He would not have thought that the Ming army would ambush on the northern line and encircle Ju Yi outside the northern suburbs.

So Ju Yi was able to fight out from the eldest son city, but did not surrender in the eldest son city, it was Zhang Fei's acknowledgment of Ju Yi.

"Xiandeng Erlang, countless people have died in battle!"

Ju Yi smiled wryly.

"It's okay!"

Zhang Fei waved his hand and said, "Wait for us to fight out, and then we'll be the first to go!"
