Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 379 The Guardian of the Mountain, Zhuge's Birthday in Langya

As everyone knows, there are people on the top of the mountain looking at the rafts below from a distance.

"More than 1000 rafts, more than 300 boats and awning boats, the enemy should have already calculated." A scribe glanced around, "Generals, our army is trapped here, and it will take at least three months for the flood to retreat. Five days."

"It will take at least three to five days for the silt to dry and allow our troops to ride down the mountain, and the weather must be fine."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the mountain, "Now our army's rations are only for two days. If we save more, we can eat for five days."

"If we slaughter those horses with bruises and arrow wounds, we will get four or five hundred horse meat, and there will be no worries about food."

"There are many shrubs on this hillside. You can mix them with vines to form a bamboo raft, and send soldiers with good water to row north to Julu for help."

On the slope, brothers Xiahouchong and Xiahouwei exchanged glances with each other.

Xia Houchong sighed, "Joining the army, can't we wait for the water to subside and our army to move forward in the mud?"

Zhuge Dan shook his head, "Let's not talk about the mud. In the past few days, our army has to cut down all the shrubs and vines on the mountain as soon as possible to resist the enemy's attack below the mountain. If it can't be stopped, our army will not be able to survive the flood." Back off."

"Is that an exaggeration? The ones who flooded us this time are just young generals like Guan Xing and Zhang Bao. They only have the courage of men. If they dare to go up the mountain, let me kill them." Xia Houwei roared angrily.

"General, don't underestimate the enemy." Zhuge Dan stared at the foot of the mountain, "Look, besides the [Guan] and [Zhang] flags, there is another flag with the word [Jiang]. The soldiers and horses of the road can come so fast, and in the midst of the torrential flood, they can guess so quickly that our army will retreat to Taiji Lake and come in rafts."

"It must have been planned by this person."

With that said, Zhuge Dan raised his foot to the front of the slope.

"I am Zhuge Dan in Langya. Dare I ask which general of the Shu army is responsible for the current flood that has spread to the river and hundreds of miles to the north?"

"Zhuge's birthday?"

Hearing this name, both Guan Xing and Zhang Bao became calm.

In today's world, everyone with the surname Zhuge is related to his own prime minister?
"This is the conspiracy of General Huben Deng Ai." Jiang Wei is not as restless as Guan Xing and Zhang Bao. Being able to stand in front of the mountain proves that this guy in front of him is his enemy. Don't say that his surname is Zhuge, even if his surname is Liu, he has to be careful response.

"The general is Deng Ai?"

"I am not Deng Ai, but Tianshui Jiang Boyue."

"Tianshui Jiang Boyue." Zhuge Dan took a deep look at Jiang Wei, "You wait for tens of thousands of soldiers to encircle the mountain, what does Yigu owe you?"

"It's better to release the flood as soon as possible to save millions of lives in Hebei. If it's over, the affected people in the counties will die miserably. Even if you win this battle, you will be infamous forever."

Jiang Wei sneered, "Let's just take care of yourself."

"At this moment, the commander of the army on the mountain is the general of Xiahou's clan, who is a brother of Cao Pi's clan, but you are from the Zhuge clan of Langya."

"If you are willing to go down the mountain and surrender at this moment, in the face of my Prime Minister Zhuge, I can still protect you in glory and wealth."

"Fire arrows!"

Zhuge Dan's complexion changed slightly, this kid dared to say that in front of Xia Houchong and Xiahouwei brothers, didn't he want to kill him?

He let out a roar, and a thousand arrows were fired, and the warship below was shot back a hundred steps.

"Order, the whole army surrounds this mountain, don't attack." Jiang Wei folded his hands in front of him, and ordered to attack the mountain without any hurry.

"Now the mountain is crowded with people, and there is no place to put the horses. Boyue, we come out this time, and the bows and arrows are still abundant. Why don't you let me lead the army to charge for a while, and only throw arrows up the mountain, and vigorously kill and wound the enemy, even if it disturbs the morale of some enemy troops. That's fine too." Seeing that Jiang Wei didn't give the order to attack, Guan Xing became impatient.

"An Guo, don't be reckless. At this moment, there are [-] cavalry on the mountain, and the horses are used as a barrier. If we shoot the horses, they can use the horses to cook and eat."

"Let's attack, they are good at volley shooting, and they still have at least 20 million arrows in their hands. In this way, they occupy the high slope, and they can cover the mountain with only bows and arrows. It is extremely unwise for our army to attack upwards. .”

"Then what do you mean?" Zhang Bao asked subconsciously.

"Wait."

"Waiting for reinforcements?" Zhang Bao frowned slightly, "But it will take at least two days for Deng Ai to turn around."

"No, we have to wait for the sailor."

"Now Lu Xun, the governor of Liaodong, commands the Yellow River Navy, Jiaozhou Navy, Yingzhou Navy, and Yangtze River Navy to attack Sanhan in the north. It is the troops of General Liu Rengui of the Yangzhou Navy who are stationed in the Yellow River."

"As long as our army supports the navy warship under his command, go north along the flood river, attack the mountain with the artillery on the warship, and one shell will cause at least 200 casualties."

"Look, this mountain is crowded with people, isn't it a ready-made live target?"

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao looked at each other and smiled immediately.

Guan Xing yelled, "Come here, immediately fly a pigeon to pass the letter, so that the troops of General Liu Rengui of the Yellow River Navy will immediately go north along the flood river and arrive at Taiji Lake within two days."

"Here."

On the top of the mountain, seeing that Jiang Wei and the others were not provoked, Zhuge Dan let out a long sigh.

"Two generals."

"What's the matter?" Xia Houchong and Xia Houwei were excited.

"Order the soldiers under your command to dig a hole behind the mountain and prepare for the bombing of the enemy navy."

"Huh?" Xia Houchong was stunned. "The enemy navy, join the army. You mean the Yellow River navy of the Shu army will go north along the flooded river?"

"But if they only use shells to attack the mountain, they still can't do anything to us."

"And it will take at least two days for them to reach here. The time left for them to attack the mountain is only one or two days. They will not be able to attack us within these two days, and they will have no chance to retreat. If the river is dry , those warships of the Shu army will not be able to go back."

Zhuge Dan was speechless immediately, these two brothers really inherited their father Xia Houyuan's character, they are so stupid.

"Two generals, now, the right way is to survive first."

"Handan has lost contact with us. The army under General Xia Houshang's command will not last for a few days. In the end, we will have to rely on our army to save ourselves."

"Besides, there will not be too many reinforcements in the direction of Julu. After all, the main force of our army is confronting Zhuge Liang at Huguan, and some of them are following the governor Sima Yi and going to Liaodong. I don't know... the current situation in Liaodong. How's it going."

Speaking of this, Zhuge Dan was full of worry.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Sima Yi's ability, but that the Lu Xun sent by Liu Feng was rumored to be Zhou Yu's default appointment as the fourth governor of Soochow.

This kid's abilities... I'm afraid he's not inferior to Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and Lu Meng.

It would be very difficult for Sima Yi to win him!
