Deng Xian wanted to speak but stopped, so he looked at Meng Da for help.

Wei Ba's words are ambiguous, it depends on how you understand them.

First of all, the order to send troops from Fangling is still in the top secret stage. Logically speaking, except for Meng Da, Zong Yu and Wei Feng, others are not qualified to know this task. Of course, they can guess from various clues.

It can also be learned from certain channels, but this conjecture is inaccurate. Those channels - strictly speaking, are also illegal. Deng Xian belongs to this kind of news learned through illegal channels, so

Wei Ba was about to ask him, who told you?

Of course this directly points to Meng Da.

In addition, there is another meaning. Your news is inaccurate. Who said we are going to use these thousands of people to fight to the death? You all heard it wrong.

This meaning is much more kind compared to the first meaning. At this time, how you understand it depends on how much hostility you are in your heart. If you think Wei Ba is deliberately making things difficult and picking the bones in the egg, you will go from

The first meaning is to understand, such as Deng Xian and Meng Da now. If you think Wei Ba is not hostile and is just kidding, then you will understand it from the second meaning, such as Zong Yu and Wei Feng.

Meng Da's face became ugly, but he could not attack.

Wei Ba turned his head with a smile and greeted Meng Da. "General, you have lived in Fangling for a long time and are the most familiar with the terrain here. The three parts of the world, Fangling, Xiangyang and Jiangling, are the world

The hub is a force that moves the whole body. The Prime Minister has entrusted you with important tasks, which is precisely because of this. However, although the general is good at fighting, with these 7,000 people, he may not be able to turn the world around, right?"

Meng Da was embarrassed. After hearing this, he hurriedly took the donkey, laughed, shook his head and said modestly, "Ziyu, you are saying this too well. I am responsible for the heavy responsibility, and I will never forget it for a moment.

.Now that Cao Rui is stationed in Wancheng and Sun Quan is stationed in Jiangling, I dare not take it lightly. Although these seven thousand soldiers are brave, they are alone, so they are waiting for you and the Prime Minister's army to support you. But, Ziyu, Prime Minister...

…When will he arrive?”

Wei Ba smiled slightly, Meng Da still grabbed Zhuge Liang and refused to let go. That's right, as long as I don't catch me. "The Prime Minister is rushing to Hanzhong, and he won't come to Fangling. He is very confident in the general's ability.

, So, he handed over the war here to the general and the general who fought against rebels, and believed that with the ability of both, he would definitely be able to complete the important task."

"General to challenge the rebellion?" Meng Da breathed a sigh of relief and raised his eyebrows: "He wants to move to Fangling?"

"That's right." Wei Ba smiled and said: "The general who fought against the rebels is the main general, and the general is the deputy general. However, this is just a nominal division. I think even if the general who fights against the rebels is here, he will not ignore the general's talents.

General, you will definitely be able to show your strengths and make achievements this time, and comfort the spirit of the late emperor in heaven."

Meng Da was a little embarrassed. He understood what Wei Ba meant. This is a chance to give you. You can seize it and wash the stains on your body. Otherwise, a hundred years later, what kind of face do you have to meet the late emperor Liu Bei?

Meng Da bowed to the command and bowed to the West: "Da is willing to lead by example and die without going back to the prime minister's kindness."

Zong Yu nodded with satisfaction. Wei Ba came to Fangling again this time, and his words were meticulous and sharp, which was much more clever than last time he could only move his fists. It seemed that the Prime Minister sent him to Fangling to use the right person.

After a verbal battle, Meng Da retreated due to the difficulties, Wei Ba began to deploy pre-war preparations. Wu Yi led an army of 20,000 and was still on the road, and the relevant food and equipment and weapons did not move, just these seven

Thousands of people cannot launch effective attacks. But this does not prevent them from preparing in advance, including both material and spiritual.

Meng Da has been operating Fangling for many years, and was almost broken by Sima Yi last time, so he was even more careful. He repaired Anqiao Pass and sent scouts far away to Wancheng and Jiangling, so he had the movements of both Wei and Wu.

It is clear that Zhuge Liang decided to take him as the main force, attack from Fangling, disturb Xiangyang, and then shock Cao Rui stationed in Wancheng and Sun Quan stationed in Jiangling. It should be said that it is wise. Although Wu Yi has a noble status, he must be concerned about combat ability.

And the understanding of the terrain in this area is far from Mengda's level.

Wei Ba first explained his strategic intention this time. The main force of Cao Wei was attacking Guanzhong, and Guanzhong was too important to them, so they went all out and wanted to retake Guanzhong at any cost. However, the Shu Han army had the advantage of the geographical advantage and died

It is hard to quickly break through Tongguan and Shangluo with the strength of Wei alone. Next, it will be a protracted battle between the two sides.

While the Wei State was fighting desperately, he must be on guard against the Wu State's trouble. Therefore, Cao Rui ignored the face of Sun Quan's great losses last year, made peace with Sun Quan and made it clear that he was powerful, tempting Sun Quan to attack Yong'an and forcing Shu State to go both sides.

Battle. Sun Quan could not have known Cao Rui's idea, but once the Shu Han occupied Guanzhong, it would be a great threat to him. Therefore, from his perspective, even without Cao Rui's encouragement, he could not sit idly by and watch Shu Kingdom

Successfully obtained Guanzhong.

Of course, Sun Quan's thoughts are not exactly the same as Cao Rui. Cao Rui had no choice but to regain Guanzhong, while Sun Quan was willing to wait and see, and wait for both sides of the Han and Wei to fight to the defeat and he would gain profit from it. At present, his threat to Shu Han is threatened by him.

It is more about the situation and plays a role in contributing.

Wei Ba did not talk about Sun Quan's intention to be emperor, and there was no need to let Meng Da and others know about this matter.

At present, the Wei and Wu countries have common goals, but they are also guarding against each other. This can be seen from Cao Rui's entry into Wancheng and Sun Quan's entry into Jiangling. Wei Ba pointed to Wancheng, Jiangling and Fangling in turn on the map.

Three positions finally landed at the central point of Xiangyang.

"The three kingdoms of Han, Wei and Wu fought against each other, and Xiangyang was the top priority. Whoever got Xiangyang would take the lead. When Guan Hou was in northern expedition, the Han and Wei fought in Xiangyang, Sun Quan stabbed him from the back and killed Guan Hou.

Xiangyang fell into the hands of Cao Wei. For us, Xiangyang is a mountain in front of us, and for Sun Quan, Xiangyang is also a knife hanging above his head."

Wei Ba looked around with a smile: "You are all powerful generals who have been through the battlefield for a long time. I think you should know that this is the ribs of the Three Kingdoms, and itchy flesh. As long as you touch it gently, you will feel uncomfortable all over."

Everyone smiled knowingly. The metaphor of itchy meat is too accurate. Xiangyang is indeed the most sensitive position in the three parties. Whenever there is any movement, they will be worried.

"Why do we think when our 30,000 powerful troops are posing as a stance to send troops to Xiangyang? What will Sun Quan think?"

"They will restless." Zong Yu stroked his beard and kept his head. He had received the order from Zhuge Liang to cooperate closely with Wei Ba and take this opportunity to strengthen his control over Fang Ling. At this moment, of course, he

We must fully support Wei Ba. "If nothing unexpected happens, they will be more vigilant to prevent the other two parties from joining forces."

Wei Ba looked at Zong Yu gratefully, and then looked at Meng Da. Meng Da kept nodding in agreement: "That's right. Wu and Wei jointly attacked me, but in fact they were also sleeping in the same bed and dreaming of each other, and were guarding against each other. At this moment, it was

When soldiers never get tired of deceiving, it is best to show them to their bodies and disturb their hearts."

Wei Ba stroking his palm and laughed: "The general is indeed a clever one. He reveals the mystery in one sentence. No wonder the Prime Minister said that it is best to leave this major event to Mengzidu."

Meng Da smiled. He didn't believe that Zhuge Liang would say that. However, he didn't reject Wei Ba's face so much. He raised his face and smiled: "So, are we limited to this?"

Wei Ba shook his head and inherited his opinion. Saying beautiful words on his lips can certainly alleviate hostility, but if you really want the other party to be convinced, you have to show your true skills.

"The way to use troops is to care about the virtual and the real. Make white and black, and attack instead of defense. If the real is weak, it is empty, and if the virtual is empty, it is solid. If the enemy is not able to distinguish between the virtual and the real, it is the best strategy." Wei Ba looked around and said loudly: "

Our army once broke into Guanzhong with 20,000 people, laying the advantage today. Now there are 30,000 strong soldiers. As long as they are prepared properly, once the fighter plane appears, it will be enough to turn the virtual into the real and launch a real attack."

Wei Ba turned around and pointed to Wancheng and Jiangling: "Everyone, Wancheng is one thousand and two hundred miles away, and Jiangling is almost the same. If we follow the Han River and arrive in Xiangyang, we will be closer to them.

." He clapped his palms and said loudly: "Everyone, the monarchs of both countries are at our hands now. It depends on your intentions if you want to stab them. Such a good opportunity is once a lifetime."

After hearing this, the generals smiled knowingly. Meng Da was unmoved. He thought for a while and asked again: "This opportunity is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but the monarch must have heavy troops to defend, not to mention Wancheng and Jiangling City

Even if it is deep in the pond, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. After the Red Cliff, Xiangyang, which was standing with the Han River, and Fancheng were the place where the three parties fought for it with all their might. However, no matter whether Guan Hou was in the Northern Expedition or Wu State mobilized troops in succession, he could not conquer Xiangyang.

, We only have 30,000 people, what can we do?"

"General, this is the purpose of the Prime Minister sending me here." Wei Ba pointed at his nose and laughed: "If you want to be experienced in marching and fighting, I am not as good as a general. If you want to be creating various siege equipment, General, I

I'm still a little proud of capital. Do you think so?"

Meng Da raised his eyebrows and was immediately overjoyed. Who doesn’t know about Wei Ba’s mechanical accomplishments now? He is responsible for building powerful weapons, plus the 30,000 troops, not only stirring up the situation, but also like

As Wei Ba said, it is not impossible to turn the virtual into the real and fight a good battle. If you can make great contributions this time, won’t you be able to gain a foothold in Shu Han in the future?

"Ziyu said so much. When it comes to the manufacturing of weapons, you are a well-deserved genius." Meng Da was happy and said beautifully. "This time, whether we can make contributions depends on you. Ziyu, you

Tell me, we want people, we have things, we have things. We have everything. We all support you with everything, and we will never say anything."

Wei Ba bowed and greeted: "Thank you, General. Now, I want to ask the general to create some momentum first and go out to Anqiao Pass."

"The troops came out of the Anqiao Pass?" Meng Da thought for a moment and immediately understood. He pointed his hand at Deng Xian: "Ziyi, hurry into the Anqiao Pass immediately and ask Pan Zhang's man to be careful. Tell him that Wei Shenjun again

Here we come."
