I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 34 The Battle of the Wei River between Han and Wei
At this time, Li Heng was checking Zhuge Liang's pulse in his camp.

Suddenly an urgent message came from outside: "Urgent report!"

"Enter!"

The messenger came in, handed it over, and said, "Prime Minister, the Wei army has sent troops!"

Yang Yi took the military report and presented it to Zhuge Liang.

"The prime minister knows things well." Yang Yi said, "I already knew that Sima Yi would send troops!"

Zhuge Liang looked indifferent and took it and looked at it carefully.

"Sima Yi finally couldn't sit still." After reading, Zhuge Liang showed relief on his face, "The Wei army on the north side of the east bank of my Xianshui also dispatched. The scouts also detected that a large number of main forces came out of the Wei army camp and headed towards where Zhou Dang was. Rush to the camp.”

After speaking, Zhuge Liang reported this to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi also looked quite curious, he wanted to know how Sima Yi arranged it.

"Sima Yi is going to attack the north!" Yang Yi said, "He is going to join forces with Zhou Dang in the north and join forces to attack us!"

Li Heng, who was checking his pulse, suddenly said: "No! Sima Yi's main force will not attack the north, but the gap in our defense!"

"You don't understand, this is called concentration of troops." Yang Yi snorted coldly, "The gap is already heavily guarded by our army. Sima Yi will not rashly fight head-on with the main force of our army! Our army should dispatch troops to the north for reinforcements! "

Zhuge Liang glanced at Li Heng and asked, "Why did Ji'an say that Sima Yi sent empty troops to the north?"

"The Wei army in the north is bordered by the Wei River to the north and the Xie River to the west. This terrain is not conducive to cavalry deployment. The reason why Sima Yi is willing to send troops is not to fight us, but to prevent us from farming. To prevent us from farming, we must use cavalry to make a surprise attack. "

Zhuge Liang asked again: "But our army has deployed heavy troops in the gap to the east. Sima Yi has always been afraid of our army. Will he fight us head-on?"

"Yes!" Li Heng said, "Sima Yi's purpose of sending troops is to prevent us from farming, but the reason for sending troops is that he has no choice. Our army is attacking by not attacking, and is surrounding the land and farming, which is to build momentum. Once this trend is achieved, the battle situation in Guanzhong will be There will be a big change, and our army will no longer be troubled by logistics, and it will be like a tiger emerging from the cage!"

The essence of the so-called strategic layout is to place corresponding resources in key places, let them operate by themselves, and gradually form a trend.

This force can contain the enemy if it does not move, but can attack the enemy if it moves.

Make the enemy restless.

For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty traveled thousands of miles to build Shuofang City, and another example was the establishment of four counties in Hexi.

One is to gather troops to attack the Xiongnu in Monan, and the other is to cut off the right arm of the Xiongnu.

Zhuge Liang laughed and said: "What a choice!"

"Prime Minister, I have checked my pulse. The Prime Minister's pulse condition is getting more and more stable."

"It's your job."

"The Prime Minister is serious, please resign first!"

As soon as Li Heng left, Yang Yi said, "Does the Prime Minister believe what Li Heng said?"

Zhuge Liang just smiled and said nothing.

"If the main force of the Wei army really accumulates in the north and the north is lost, the situation will be critical!"

Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart, Yang Yizhi's talent lies in officialdom, not military affairs.

"Wen Wei."

"The official is here." Fei Yi came out.

"Go and inform Wei Yan and Jiang Wei that no one is allowed to leave their post without my order!"

"Here!"

Seeing what Zhuge Liang said, Yang Yi felt regretful, but did not dare to say anything more.

It's raining more and more outside.

The Qinling Mountains in the distance are shrouded in clouds and mist, and the green color looms among them.

The water in Xieshui, which connects the Weihe River and Qinling Mountains, has surged.

As soon as Fei Yi crossed the bridge, the pontoon bridge had been washed away, and the Han army in Wuzhangyuan and the Han army on the east bank of Xieshui were separated.

Li Heng held an umbrella and stood on the Wuzhang Plain and looked down.He vaguely seemed to see a large black figure appearing in the Wei army camp south of the Wei River and east of the Xie River.

"It seems like today is going to be a tough battle!" Li Heng felt a little nervous.

What he said was "strengthen the stronghold and fight the war". This strategy is indeed in line with the current development of the Han army.

But the battle can be won by more than just relying on a good strategy.

The so-called Three Kingdoms counselors determined the world is just a romantic artistic process.

A real war is to propose a strategy, start with strategic resource allocation, and then use countless tactics to support the strategy.

Only in this way can the general trend be formed when the strategy comes to the back.

At the moment, the Han army's defense is tactical support.

If a powerful army does not have a reasonable strategy, it will eventually wear itself out after experiencing countless victories.

A weak army, even if it has a superb strategy, cannot sustain its combat power, and the execution of the strategy will soon be disrupted.

Li Heng looked towards the distance in the misty rain, which was the direction of Chang'an.

Whether the Han army can gain a foothold in Guanzhong depends on this battle!

Whether Li Heng can create a storm with his Wuzhang Yuan Fan depends on this battle!

This battle will determine the future situation of the world!
"Lang Jun, what are you looking at?" Xue Liang asked.

"Nothing, let's go, we have a lot to do." Li Heng turned around and walked into the misty rain.

The dark clouds in the sky were very low, and lightning flashed across, making the sky and earth pale.

Groups of Wei troops continued to march north.

Sima Yi said: "If you spread the word, I will personally arrive in the north and command the main force of the Wei Dynasty to attack the Shu army! It is best to let the Shu army know as soon as possible!"

"Here!"

Groups of armored and sharp Han troops marched in order in the rain. General Lieutenant Fa Ji arrived at the place where trenches were being dug.

He saw some soldiers carrying water out of the trench in wooden barrels, while others were digging soil tirelessly in the heavy rain.

They already had feelings for each other, but they could only vent them through loud roars.

Upon seeing this, Fa Ji began to take off his shirt. He got a shovel from a soldier, slid down, and started digging with the soldiers.

When the soldiers saw Faji coming down, they stopped complaining and started digging hard.

"We must go faster!" Faji shouted in the rain.

Everyone started to speed up in silence.

At this time, General Meng Yan, who was stationed in the north to assist the Han Dynasty, received the information.

"Report! General, the main force of the Wei army has left the barracks!"

Meng Yan was eating. After hearing this, he placed the rice on the table and stood up suddenly: "Put on armor!"

"General, it's raining heavily outside!"

"The general of the Wei army can fight in heavy rain, why can't I!" Meng Yan shouted, "Wear armor!"

Meng Yan was highly regarded by Zhuge Liang, and he himself cared most about Zhuge Liang's opinion of him.

He put on his armor and walked out of the tent.

The dark Wei army moved from the north to the south, like a black torrent, moving forward in the heavy rain, approaching the Han army's defensive fence.

The messenger was riding a horse. He couldn't wave the flag in this weather, so he pulled out his sword and signaled.

The forward infantry of the Wei army began to advance forward, stepping on the wet grass and mud under their feet.

The rain washed over the armor, causing countless splashes.
