Chapter 655

The Western Wei Dynasty cannot delay the battle of Sichuan and Shu for too long. Once it gets into a quagmire, it will be a very dangerous thing.

In the big tent, Gao Yihuan glanced at the generals, and then said: "Jianmen Pass is one of the most dangerous passes in the world. When Wei Guo attacked Shu, Jiang Wei was in Jiange, and Wei Jun could not enter. Deng Ai went to Yinping to enter Shu. Wu Sangui should be very confident about Jiange, so the soldiers and horses released may not be more than Mi Cangdao. This time, the lonely king has more soldiers and Guan Ning's army is less, and he has to face Sun Kewang. The lonely king has the strength and the conditions to fight Wu Sangui will fight head-on."

Gao Yihuan has always avoided the real and attacked the weak when using troops, and rarely confronts the tough, but this time he did the opposite.

Of course, Gao Yihuan made such a decision not because he slapped his head without consideration, but because of something.

For this expedition, he brought several siege mortars and a hundred shells, which he wanted to use to break through the Jianmen Pass.

Many artillery pieces in the Ming Dynasty were mortars. They were short-barreled guns with a large firing angle, low initial velocity, and projectile trajectory. Among them, the small-caliber, easy-to-carry mortars were later developed into mortars.

This batch of mortars from the Western Wei Dynasty was much larger than the bowl-mouth guns, and the production process was also much better.

Gao Yihuan named them Weiyuan General Cannons. They are also cast in copper, weighing 580 catties, and carried by four-wheeled wooden cannon carts. The range of the big run is related to the elevation angle of the charge and shells. It can throw shells two miles away.

The road to Shu is difficult, and the Hongyi cannon, which weighs a thousand catties, cannot be transported into Shu. General Weiyuan's cannon is much lighter, but it must also take a road that is not deserted.

In the big tent, many people didn't know about the mortar, but since Gao Yihuan had made up his mind, everyone clasped their fists together and solemnly said, "Please order, Your Majesty."

Gao Yihuan nodded, walked in front of the sand table, picked up the wooden stick and said: "There are only a few roads to enter Sichuan. The predecessors used all the tricks they could use in the war. Wu Sangui must have considered all the ways for the lonely king to enter Sichuan. It is impossible to choose a dangerous place to defend every road. It is unrealistic to sneak into Yinping, and there are no new tricks. However, there are many soldiers in the lonely king. Taking advantage of the characteristics of Wu Sangui's lack of troops, he used a bluff to confuse Wu Sangui. , it is still possible to ask him to divide his troops everywhere."

Speaking of which, Gao Yihuan took the wooden stick, pointed to the Mi Cang Road, and shouted: "Wang Yongqiang, you lead three thousand soldiers and horses, raise more banners, and walk on the Mi Cang Road." The wooden stick pointed to another place, "Li Jiyu, you lead 3000 people walked the litchi road.”

Wang Yongqiang and Li Jiyu immediately came out and clasped their fists together, "I take orders!"

Gao Yihuan looked at the two of them, and said seriously: "The two of you set off today, the purpose is to bluff, so that Guan Ningjun can't judge the real movements of the lonely king."

After finishing speaking, Gao Yihuan scanned the generals with sharp eyes, "The rest of the generals, prepare for three days to set off with the lonely king, break through the Jianmen pass and take the city of Chengdu."

"Your servants take orders!" The generals who were full of tents clasped their fists neatly, bursting with pride, and the armor on their bodies clattered.

Gao Yihuan nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Yi Daosan again: "Select a thousand elites from the selection camp, take the Yinping Road, bypass the Jiange, and when the lonely king attacks Jianmen Pass, you can bluff and try to attract the attention of Guan Ningjun , making it impossible for Wu Sangui to fully reinforce Jiange."

When Deng Ai attacked Chengdu from Yinping, Wu Sangui would definitely set up defenses, but Gao Yihuan did not intend to break through Yinping, but just let Wu Sangui know that there were soldiers and horses from the Western Wei Dynasty appearing on Yinping Road, so Wu Sangui had to worry about whether he wanted to learn from Deng Ai.

"Wu Sangui has less than 5 elite soldiers. With the arrangement of the King of Wei in this way, the Guanning Army's forces will be dispersed. The possibility of the main force breaking through the Jiange is very high." After hearing Gao Yihuan's arrangement, Li Dingguo couldn't help but say something.

"The one who knows the lonely will decide the country!" Gao Yihuan smiled and looked at Li Dingguo, but Li Dingguo turned his eyes away. Seeing this, Gao Yihuan smiled and waved, "All the generals go get ready."

At the beginning of September, the autumn wind is slightly cool, with a hint of chill. In the rolling Daba Mountain, the leaves are already slightly yellow.

At this time, in the winding and difficult mountain road, an army of tens of thousands of people, half-rolled banners, stretched for tens of miles, meandering like a snake, trekking hard towards the middle of Shu.

Gao Yihuan was wearing a golden armor and was riding a war horse. The guard Zhou Dali held the reins of the horse and walked slowly in the team.

Suddenly, the team in front stopped, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were immediately blocked. Gao Yihuan knew that there must be a problem with the road ahead, so he waved his hand, "Temporarily stop and rest. Li Laiheng, go ahead and have a look!" "

Wei Jun stayed in Guanzhong for more than half a year. In addition to waiting for supplies, he also began to repair the road into Sichuan and control the Shu Road. Difficult to go.

This stop lasted for half an hour, and the soldiers seized the time to finish their meal before the soldiers in front started moving again.

On the rugged road, the elite soldiers of the Fengfeng Battalion took the lead in using rope and wooden bridges to pass through the destroyed plank road, and rushed forward quickly, chasing and killing the small group of Guanning troops.

The army stopped and walked behind, and soldiers, donkey carts and artillery rolled down the hill from time to time, but the Wei army did not make any noise because of this.

Jianmen Pass is located in Dajian Mountain, Guangyuan, Sichuan. The gate of the pass is built with cliffs and stones. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This Guancheng was built in the Shuhan period and has a long history. It is an important gateway of Sichuan.

The terrain here is dangerous, and Xia Guoxiang stationed [-] troops here to prevent the Wei army from entering Sichuan.

At this time, the Guan Ning army had already received the news that the Western Wei army had entered Sichuan, and the torches were lit all over the wall, and the soldiers patrolled back and forth with spears in their hands.

"Is there someone on the plank road?" A soldier stopped suddenly.

The general leading the team also stopped and looked out of the pass, but there was no one in sight in the darkness.

"The plank road has been demolished, where did they come from?" The officer stood on the spot and looked carefully for a while, but he did not find any abnormalities.

The soldiers continued to patrol, but within a few steps, the soldier shouted again, "There are people, yes, there are people!"

The leading officer frowned, "What do you see?"

The soldier squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and said sharply: "Someone is repairing the plank road!"

At this time, although the others didn't see it, they heard the noise, "Boss, there is a movement."

The general stopped hesitating when he heard this, and ordered decisively, "Ring the alarm bell, light the fire, and prepare to meet the enemy."

After finishing speaking, the general led a team of archers and musketeers out of the gate and came to the exit of the plank road.

At this time, the distance was getting closer, and the general had already seen that there were indeed soldiers laying planks on the plank road under the cover of night.

"Fire the arrow!" The officer said immediately.

At this time, the gun flames on the opposite side were flickering, and there were several "bang bang bang" bangs. The self-generated guns with a penetration distance of about 75 steps far exceeded the range and power of the Guan Ning army. The Guan Ning army had not yet run over. In the sound of gunshots, the soldiers fell down several people.

~~~~~~
At four o'clock, the city of Chengdu was pitch black and silent, but Wu Sangui's Palace of King Qin was brightly lit.

After Sun Kewang led his army back to the city, after careful consideration, he decided to withdraw from Chengdu.

On the Chengdu Plain, the Guanning Army's horse army was powerful and had almost no opponents. The Western Army guarding Chengdu was equivalent to sitting in an isolated city. Wu Sangui could occupy the plains of the city capital and obtain food and supplies to trap Chengdu to death.

For this reason, Sun Kewang considered again and again, and decided to evacuate Chengdu and turn to southern and eastern Sichuan.

As soon as Sun Kewang left, Wu Sangui became the lord of Chengdu, but before his ass was hot, Gao Yufu came here again...
