Chapter 148: Dangerous Tactics for Soldiers (Part 1)
Chapter 148: Military moves (Part 1)
If the Shu army in Hanzhong had a great defeat, if it weren't for a fire to block the battlefield, the Wei army would have rushed directly to Hanzhong. Guan Yi collected the defeated troops and counted the number of people. Everyone was sick and had no fighting spirit. This battle was too bad!
The most of the vine armored soldiers that had been proud of for a long time were lost to Wudang Feijun. The main generals of the two teams, such as Wang Yue, Tu Sanye, Xi Jiaoxian and others, were killed in battle, and the remaining troops were only 20 or 300 of the usual ones. Not only did such elite soldiers win every battle on the battlefield, but they were also magic weapons to win unexpectedly. Now, they are ruined in this Luogu.
It’s not that Fu Qian was incompetent in his army, but that the Wei army was cunning and profound. He ignored the reinforcements of Jiang Wei from Yongzhou and directly entered the Luo Valley and set an ambush. It is easy to advance into the valley and difficult to retreat. He was ambushed by the Wei army several times its strength. The Shu army’s disastrous defeat was reasonable.
Zhuge crossbowmen has become a necessary branch of troops in various troops of Shu Han. Although nearly a thousand people have been damaged here, fortunately, they are not hurt. Only Wudang Flying Army and Vine Armored Soldiers are the elite among the elites, which makes people sigh and feel distressed.
Especially in a fire in Luogu, countless vine armored soldiers were caught in the sea of fire without any time to react. This tragic scene is an unforgettable memory for witnesses. The man who had a lively moment before was covered in fire in the blink of an eye, could not escape, and was wailed and burned to death.
In this battle, the conventional army also lost 15,600 people. Guan Yi sent people to collect the remaining troops everywhere but gathered about 7,000 people. The rest were no longer there...
When counting the generals, he suddenly found that Fu Qian was missing, and the soldiers were inquiring about it, but there was no news. This was another blow. Guan Yi was in good condition, but his mood was heavier than when he was injured. Judging from the military information from Chang'an, Chang'an's survival was only in the evening.
Even though Liao Hua was a general who was as famous as Zhang Yi under Jiang Wei, he still seemed to have shortcomings compared to Sima Zhao and Zhong Hui, who were famous all over the world. The Wei army launched a large-scale invasion and its strategy was surprisingly clear. The attacks and destruction had trapped Chang'an and defeated the Shu army in Hanzhong. I believe that Zhong Hui's Wei army has now fought with Jiang Wei's main force, and even if there is no fire blocking Luo Gu, just with this momentum, how can the seven thousand Shu soldiers, who are like a dog who are stranded, rescue Chang'an?
Guan Yi felt a hint of melancholy in his heart, thinking of his good brother Zhang Zun. If Zhang Zun had not died, he would have a partner to talk to at this moment. It is difficult to find someone to talk to. As the main general here, he first showed his weakness, so how can the generals and soldiers below cheer up?
It would be great if Your Majesty was here. Your Majesty learned to govern the army very late, but he often unexpectedly had wonderful ideas to boost his morale and even turn defeat into victory. On the contrary, even if he was brave and commanding the army, he was still out of reach compared to His Majesty's imaginative tactics.
Why……
The soldiers and generals around had no time to think and were busy arranging the wounded in the camp for medical treatment, building camps, and unloading supplies. More than a thousand other people were paying attention to the fire in the wild and searching for their own soldiers and generals.
The busyness and noise were not interrupted overnight, mixed with the wounded soldiers' screams and screams. Fortunately, there were many military doctors in the army, and the medicinal materials were sufficient to save a lot of life and combat power. According to the usual practice, those who died after being injured and died, and now they saved their lives and should be protected with disabilities. The wounded soldiers kept humming and thanked His Majesty in their hearts.
Your Majesty has given him a favor and set up a military doctor to focus on the care and treatment of the wounded soldiers. If they are their reborn parents, who would like to die? Who would think they should be disabled for life? But on the battlefield, in reality, it is so cruel that the wounded soldiers are ignored, and the injured are thrown into the pile of dead people.
The fateful ones who were disabled returned home, could not work and needed to serve him. Their family felt that it was a burden, let alone being looked down upon and bullied by the neighbors around him. That day, life was worse than death.
Looking at the medicine wrapped around me, thinking about my brothers and comrades who had died before, when it was late at night, a sniffle sound came from the wounded camp...
The wildfires were getting bigger and bigger, and the Shu army was about to move the camp towards Hanzhong in a blink of an eye. After a night of rest, both Guan Yi and the soldiers and generals in the army had some energy and recovered some physical strength. Fortunately, a military soldier brought Fu Qian back to him, and Fu Qian was injured very seriously. The military doctor hurriedly took treatment, but it was just a hard work, and life and death were left to fate.
Guan Yi made up his mind, so he sent someone to send Fu Qian and the injured back to Hanzhong. He took more than 3,000 people to stare at the wildfire and logged wood and digged trenches nearby to prevent the fire from spreading.
Liao Hua is an important official of the country. He has always been cautious and resourceful and good at making decisions. Jiang Wei is the pillar of the country. Even if he gets compared to the world, he is one of the best generals. Such two heavyweight figures are definitely not easily defeated. If Shu Han is in Sichuan and underestimate the people in Shu, he will definitely pay a heavy price. This is a fact that Guan Yi knows. At this time, he can only think about it and encourage himself.
Hanzhong also received news from the front line. Xi was not leaving Hanzhong yet. He was shocked when he heard the news. He quickly passed the military information to Chengdu and recruited military and civilians to pick up Guan Yi's troops. Along the way, he saw the injured team pulling far away, and Fu Qian's injuries were particularly serious.
Xi Zheng sighed. It seemed that only more than 10,000 troops from the two reinforcements in Hanzhong could enter Yongzhou. This force would not have much effect on the battle situation. Jiang Boyi Tianzong's genius, but he did not have any soldiers in his hands, how could he deal with Zhong Hui?
At this time, several war horses in the army arrived at the speed of the battle. Before the horse arrived, they shouted: "Sir Xi, how about the battle on the front line?"
Xi Zheng turned around and saw that the person who came was Liu Yin, another Shu Han general who was recovering from his injuries in Hanzhong.
Liu Yin's face was rosy and full of energy. It was obvious that several months of cultivation had restored Liu Yin's health. Two young generals were followed behind him. Judging from his appearance, he looked quite similar to Liu Yin, and he was Liu Yin's two sons. The eldest son Liu Chong, wearing iron armor, had a machete in his hand for more than 40 pounds, and was called a fierce general. The second son Liu Chu was wearing a soap robe and dressed as a civil official, but when he looked at his horse, he knew that his skills were not weak.
"Why did Xiuran come to this?" Xi Zheng said in surprise. As far as he knew, Liu Yin returned to his hometown after his injuries recovered.
"I heard at home that Sima thieves invaded Chang'an and brought a puppy to help. Why is it so miserable?" Liu Yin was also stunned. He was impressed that the Shu army had never been defeated in such a miserable way.
"It's hard to describe it. The Luogu fire is not extinguished. I'm afraid that the only way to Qishan will be to rush to Chang'an to help." Xi Zheng shook his head helplessly.
Liu Yin looked at the wounded soldiers who were constantly in the past with a serious expression, not knowing what he was thinking. Liu Chong and Liu Chu were following their father to show their skills in the army, but they suddenly lost interest when they saw so many injuries. The bloody reality told these two young generals that the battlefield was definitely not a joke.
"How many troops can be called in Hanzhong?" Liu Yin, who is permanently stationed in Hanzhong, certainly knows the details of Hanzhong's military strength. The current question is just to determine whether it has changed from his memory.
...
A great war in Chang'an ended with the retreat of the Wei army. The Shu army had no time to pursue the Wei army and rushed to repair the city gate and clean up the corpse. It was originally Liao Hua and others who designed to lure the Wei army to steal the city, but fortunately they ambush the Wei people in the city and give Sima Zhao some colors. I don't know why it evolved into Sima Zhao's tricks and took advantage of the situation to attack the city.
The Wei army's plan was originally perfect. Although the city walls of Chang'an were high and thick, the Wei army's 50,000 troops were slightly less. However, most of the Shu army's troops were placed in the city. Sima Zhao's unexpected behavior caught the Shu army off guard and almost captured Chang'an.
You should know that if the 50,000 Wei troops entered Chang'an City, it would not be possible for these 30,000 Shu troops to resist. At that time, the people in the city would not help the Shu army.
However, Liao Hua also made a surprising move. He first forcibly suppressed the major families in the city and deprived the family of their manpower and financial resources to make it difficult to make a difference. He also maintained contact with the Wei army in the name of the family. Although Sima Zhao saw through and took advantage of the tricks, fortunately, the tens of thousands of servants who were recruited played a role at the critical moment.
Most of the guards at the city walls were responsible, which increased the defensive firepower to a certain extent and reduced the casualties of the regular Shu army. With the 20,000 servants who were killed by Ma Xiu also put a considerable pressure on the Wei people in a short period of time. Even if the details were missing in the later period, the Wei people's offensive against Chang'an had long been alleviated by the Shu army.
The fierce fighting and shouting for killing this night was earth-shaking, and the Shu army and the Wei army were both really desperate. The families and people in the city did not dare to leave the house. During the war, they went to the streets to sway directly, which was purely a search for death.
I couldn't see it, so I could only listen with my ears. I guess the Shu army was about to finish playing as I heard the shouts of the Wei army outside. After a while, the movements of the Wei army gradually became smaller, and the shouts of the Shu people came one after another. It was thought that the Wei army's attack was repelled. I didn't expect that the Shu army's voices gradually became more and more loud, but the other side became weaker.
Many families and wealthy families who were deprived of their property wished that the Wei army would come in quickly and kill the Shu soldiers killed in the sky. Even if the property was not returned, it would be considered as a pity for the hatred in my heart. But as I thought about it, I felt that this was the case, but the reason was not the case.
The servants, money, food and weapons in the family were taken by the Shu army to fight against the Wei people. If the Wei army entered the city and saw that the family supported the Shu people so much, what would they react? Thinking of this, I felt chill in my heart, and the temperature around seemed to have dropped a lot.
As the sky became brighter, the battles outside the city were also defeated. The people opened their doors and rushed to the streets. They saw the Shu army, and they felt a little more at ease in their hearts. The men of the aristocratic families who were good at observing their words and expressions stared at the Shu army back and forth in the city, feeling indescribable.
Fortunately, the Shu people won, otherwise it would be difficult to explain to the Wei army this experience. However, looking at the corpses and blood on the ground, it seemed that the Shu soldiers had also suffered a lot of losses. Who won this battle?
...
In the palace of Wu State, Huang Chong and the monarchs and ministers of Wu State were fiercely debated. The thoughts of the Lord of Wu, Sun Liang, had been captured by Huang Chong, and Shu State also had the intention to agree, but the details still need to be discussed and considered. According to Wu State's intention, Mr. Ma Jun was invited to Jiangdong for a while, and wait until the key points of the casting car were explained clearly, and then sent back to Sichuan.
Ma Jun is very special in Liu Chan's eyes. He can be said to be an indispensable member of the revitalization of Shu Han. How can such a person come to Jiangdong?
