I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 107 Defeat the Wei Army Again
Wang He flattered him and said, "It's Mr. Xu who knows everything. The Shu army would never have thought that we would send a surprise force at this time!"

"Go down quickly and prepare. The credit for defeating the Shu army this time belongs to you all!"

Everyone said: "Thank you very much, Mr. Xu!"

On the same day, the Wei troops in Jincheng County were gearing up, each one showing a satisfied smile, and they hurriedly gathered their troops.

On May 26, a Wei army sent troops from Jincheng County and quickly headed for Tianshui County.

On the first day of June, Hebei County.

Li Heng has received information for the second time, Wei Jun is coming!

And there are quite a lot of them!
He immediately summoned Ma Yong and said to Ma Yong: "As expected, the Wei army came south from Jincheng County and headed straight for Tianshui!"

Ma Yong looked ugly and said, "Why did Mr. Li let me know?"

"After all, you have the merit."

"Li Gongxiu is going to laugh at me."

"I'm not laughing at you, I'm serious. You have merit in this matter, and I will report it truthfully. You will definitely be rewarded."

How despicable!
Although Ma Yong had emotions in his heart, he had to obey Li Heng.

Xu Miao can be regarded as a talented person. It is not unreasonable for Wei Dynasty to send him to guard Liangzhou.

But Li Heng took advantage of the tense moment of the battle and passed key information to deceive Xu Miao. Xu Miao was bound to fall into trouble this time.

In the next ten days, the scouts sent intensive intelligence.

The movements of the Wei army are all under control.

During this process, someone proposed to send troops to set up an ambush in the valley halfway, but Li Heng rejected it.

Because at this time, Tianshui should be empty, and there should be no shadow of the Shu army in the north.

If the Shu army went north and the people knew about it and spread the news, Xu Miao would definitely know that he had fallen into the trap.

So now we simply do nothing and just leave the main force in Ji County.

After the Wei army arrived near Ji County, they sent another army north to block the Wei army's path.

On the eighth day of June, Xu Miao's [-] Wei troops were only thirty miles away from Ji County.

He had already sent a large number of scouts to Ji County and even made secret visits to Shanggui. The news he received was that the main force of the Han army was in the Pidao area.

At noon, Xu Miao smiled and said to his men: "Although we only have five thousand elites, it is more than enough to capture the empty Hebei County."

"By recapturing Tianshui County, the main force of the Shu army was blocked by us in Longxi. Everyone, the credit is right in front of you!"

Everyone laughed and said, "This is where we make great achievements!"

On the ninth day of the sixth lunar month, [-] Wei troops arrived at the gates of Ji County in great numbers.

"Listen to those on the city tower, now I, the King of Wei, have raised troops. If you wait for the city to surrender, you will not lose a great achievement. If you don't open the city gate, there is only death waiting for you!"

After a while, the city gate opened as expected.

Seeing this, Xu Miao looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha, today our army captured Ji County without bloodshed..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw groups of armored and armed Han troops coming out of the city in an orderly manner.

And more and more.

Xu Miao was shocked and immediately ordered a forward attack before the Han army formed their formation.

Just as the Wei army's forward was about to kill them, Han army's crossbowmen appeared at the top of the city, and a large number of crossbow arrows were fired at the Wei army's forward.

The sharp arrows shone with an icy sheen in the sunlight, impacting the Wei army's forward formation, causing blood to splash everywhere.

The Wei army's forward fell immediately.

Xu Miao was shocked and quickly ordered the main force to attack.

However, the crossbow arrows at the top of the city were extremely dense, which greatly blocked the Wei army's attack.

After the crossbows were fired, the Han army formed a formation under the city.

The Wei army, whose morale was hit, finally rushed to the front of the Han army. At this time, they were still the opponents of the Han army. They fought head-on for just a moment and were killed and routed.The shouts of the Han army came from the top of the city.

Xu Miao looked over again and saw that there were at least thousands of Han troops outside the city.

Where is the city empty?
Mad, you were fooled!

Ma Yong, how dare you lie to me!

Seeing that the first batch of his forwards were defeated, and the morale of the rest of the army was obviously affected, what a slap at this time!
There are only five thousand elites in total. If we continue to fight, the army will collapse immediately for you to see!
There is still time to escape before collapse.

"withdraw!"

After saying that, Xu Miao immediately fled north, surrounded by his own guards.

No one expected that the war would end so hastily. Even Wei Yan at the top of the city felt incredible.

Li Heng said: "General, kill less people, we need people to work."

Wei Yan said angrily: "I know!"

Next, a 300-man cavalry unit of the Han army left the city and began to pursue the enemy.

Lu Zhi and Ma Yong were both watching this scene from the top of the city, and their hearts were complicated.

It seems that there is no possibility of turning around the situation in Longyou.

Xu Miao ran very fast.

When the report came in the evening, Xu Miao was not pursued.

"It doesn't matter, I also arranged for Xu Miao to be nearby." Li Heng said with a smile, "But there is a possibility that we can't catch him. It's best if we can catch him. It doesn't matter if we can't catch him. There is no need to force it."

On June [-], the men who returned from pursuit reported the news, but Xu Miao had not been caught.

Li Heng estimated that he escaped from the alley.

It seems that those who can serve as governors in the Three Kingdoms are not ordinary people. At first, they were able to deceive them once with calculated calculations but no intention.

Later, it becomes harder to deceive.

"So, we can't get Liangzhou?" Wei Yan asked.

"Don't worry, Qiang and Di have long refused to obey Cao Wei." Li Heng said, "It doesn't matter whether Liangzhou can get it now. If it does, we won't be able to control it for a while."

Seeing that Wei Yan was still a little unhappy, Li Heng continued: "After the Wei army experienced this defeat, they will not dare to go south easily again. Longyou has been determined, and it is all the result of the general!"

At this time, Wei Yan's expression improved a lot.

He said: "Ji'an also made many contributions, and I will not take all the credit."

"Don't dare!"

Wei Yan gave a rare smile and said: "You are a talented person. This time Longyou is in such a situation, your advice is indeed indispensable. I can agree to your request, and it must be reasonable."

Li Heng was surprised. Was this completely approved by Wei Yan?
If this is the case, I will really have some confidence in doing things in the future. After all, Wei Yan is No. 1 in the army.

"Thank you General!"

On June 2, Zhuge Liang received a letter from Long You and was overjoyed to learn that the Wei army in Liangzhou had been repelled and nearly [-] people had been captured.

What is most important to Ji Han now?

Territory and population!
"Bring Ji'an back immediately. I have important matters to discuss with him."

"Here!"

On June [-], Xu Miao fled back to Jincheng in embarrassment.

He immediately started writing an urgent report to Luoyang without any delay.

Xu Miao knew that after news of his defeat spread back, the Qiang and Di would inevitably cause trouble.

Even if Cao Rui wants to remove him now, he can't just sit back and watch the situation continue to be chaotic.

On June 25, on a bright and clear morning, Li Heng returned to Chencang New City.
