Chapter 457: The case of Shuai is revealed in anger and the Han River is crossed again

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Han De, who was full of distress, had no choice but to lead the army and continue to advance towards Chenggu County.

On the third day after Han De arrived in Chenggu County, Wang Shuang, who was leading the advance towards Chenggu County, also arrived outside Chenggu County.

But what Wang Shuang, who wanted to serve Cao Zhen with great merit, did not expect was that when he led his army to the outside of Dagu County, he did not see a single hair of the Han army. Instead, he saw Han De with a sad face.

Seeing Hande's bitter look, Wang Shuang thought that Hande was the one being attacked from both fronts and backs.

Under Han De's narration, Wang Shuang quickly understood the ins and outs of why Han De was depressed.

After knowing Wei Yan's true actions, Wang Shuang was so angry that he wanted to slap Han De in front of him, even though Han De had a higher military position than him now.

Wang Shuang did not blame Han De for letting Wei Yan jump out of the encirclement. After all, no one could have imagined in advance that Wei Yan would adopt such an unorganized way of advancing.

Didn't you see that even Cao Zhen was temporarily fooled by Wei Yan's style of play, let alone Han De?

What Wang Shuang was really angry about was that Han De was not decisive enough and could not decisively lead his army to pursue Wei Yan's army.

What Han De considered was not unclear to Wang Shuang.

Wang Shuang also knew that it would be difficult for Han De to lead his army in pursuit of Wei Yan's army.

But being unable to catch up is two different things than not having an army chasing after you!

Wei Yan suddenly and nimbly jumped out of the encirclement, which made any Wei general know that Wei Yan's purpose was never to rescue Nanzheng.

But after knowing this, a question emerged in my mind.

If it weren't for the rescue of Nanzheng, what could have caused Wei Yan, the general of Zhenbei, to lead five thousand elites to abandon the stable city and go deep into the enemy's encirclement?

Wei Yan could not possibly have wanted to bring these 5,000 Han troops out to anger the Wei army.

No matter which aspect you analyze, this is impossible.

Therefore, although Wang Shuang could not guess Wei Yan's real purpose at present, he knew that there must be an urgent matter that forced Wei Yan to take such a risk.

Now that he knows this, it would be a big mistake for Han De to give up pursuing Wei Yan.

Even if Han De cannot lead his army to catch up with Wei Yan, as long as Han De's 10,000 troops can follow and pursue him, then Wei Yan will definitely be wary no matter what his purpose is for taking such risks.

This layer of fear may cause Wei Yan's defeat, and even allow the Wei army to find another opportunity to encircle and suppress Wei Yan's army.

Don’t forget that even if Wei Yan’s army can successfully pass through Lecheng, there are still 10,000 Wei troops outside Seoul!

Thinking of this, Wang Shuang became angrier as he thought about it.

Wang Shuang glared at Han De coldly and said to him, "Just wait for the general to convict you."

After saying this, Wang Shuang ignored Han De's confusion and surprise, and immediately ordered the army to start building a pontoon bridge on the north bank of the Han River.

If Han De doesn't chase him, he will!

At the same time, two military messages were sent from Han De and Wang Shuang, and were delivered to Cao Zhen outside Xingshi City within two days.

When Cao Zhen received the military information from Han De and Wang Shuang, he was convening the generals to discuss the next siege plan.

At first, Cao Zhen was in a good mood.

After all, in recent days, the Wei army had been aggressive and captured many cities. Most of the military reports Cao Zhen received were good news.

This was a great boost to the military morale of the Wei army, and also made Cao Zhen feel that his future was full of prospects.

When Cao Zhen heard that Han De and Wang Shuang had both sent their army reports, he calculated the days in his mind and found that if Han De and Wang Shuang could successfully kill Wei Yan's army, the victory report would also be delivered within these days, so Cao Zhen had a vague feeling in his heart.

Made a guess.

This guess made Cao Zhen's lips curl up.

Cao Zhen pretended to be calm and took the two military reports from the soldiers, and then he opened Han De's report first according to his status.

Han De seemed to have realized that he had made a mistake under Wang Shuang's "reminding", so he somewhat concealed Wei Yan's whereabouts in the military report and also beautified his behavior.

But even though Han De did this, the contents of his military report still made Cao Zhen inevitably frown.

A ball of anger was brewing rapidly in Cao Zhen's heart.

Cao Zhen suppressed the anger in his heart and opened Wang Shuang's military report and read it.

Wang Shuang was not Han De. As a confidant of Cao Zhen, he reported the truth to Cao Zhen in the military report.

Moreover, Wang Shuang mercilessly exposed Han De's unwiseness.

After reading Wang Shuang's military report, Cao Zhen could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, or he no longer needed to suppress it!

Cao Zhen angrily slapped the military newspaper in his hand on the desk in front of him, and said in a hateful voice, "Han De mistaken me!"

When Cao Zhen was reading Han De's military report just now, the reason why he didn't get angry in public was because he was very angry at Wei Yan for dumping him.

But the order to encircle and suppress Wei Yan was issued by him personally. If he got angry because of this, wouldn't he be admitting in disguise that he was inferior to Wei Yan?

But now Wang Shuang's military report is equivalent to giving Cao Zhen a step down, and also allows Cao Zhen to regard Han De as the scapegoat for the failure of this siege.

The Wei generals in the tent saw that Cao Zhen suddenly lost his temper after reading the military report sent from Chenggu. They all couldn't help but become curious about the contents of the military report.

Cao Zhen did not let them be curious for too long. He asked Liu Ye to come forward and read the contents of the general's report to the Wei generals present.

After learning about Wei Yan's unexpected move, not only the Wei generals present, but also Liu Ye had a look of surprise on his face.

At the same time, the same anger as Cao Zhen was rising in their hearts.

Wei Yan's behavior was tantamount to treating their entire Wei army like monkeys!

How the hell can I bear this?

Of course, all the Wei generals also saw Cao Zhen's extremely bad expression.

Although Cao Zhen's words "Han De mislead me" cover up the fact that Cao Zhen was deceived by Wei Yan, this can only deceive the lower-level soldiers. None of the people here are not human beings. Of course they know what Cao Zhen is thinking now.

He must hate Wei Yan to death.

In this case, of course it is time for the Wei generals to show their loyalty.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So almost instantly, enthusiastic calls for battle were heard in Cao Zhen's tent.

However, this enthusiastic call for battle did not improve Cao Zhen's mood.

On the contrary, the anger on his face grew stronger and stronger.

Wang Shuang's military report has already stated that the true goal of Wei Yan's army is not yet known. In this case, what is the use of calling for battle no matter how enthusiastic it is?

Is it possible that all the tens of thousands of Wei troops should be dispersed to search the mountains and rivers in the huge Hanzhong County, chasing Wei Yan's army aimlessly?

What kind of idiot general could do this?

Based on this fact, Cao Zhen also knew that the generals who were asking for battle did not really want to share his worries at all, but were just talking about it.

How could Cao Zhen not become more angry than ever?

It’s just that the enemy is difficult to deal with, but the people inside are also so misinformed!

Cao Zhen, whose anger could not be suppressed, glanced coldly at the people present.

The dissatisfaction in his eyes could be seen by everyone, so after realizing Cao Zhen's dissatisfaction, the clamor for a fight that had just been loudly quieted down instantly.

Cao Zhen's prestige among the Wei army is now higher than that of Cao Pi.

After shocking the audience with his cold eyes, Cao Zhen cast his hopeful eyes on Liu Ye.

His eyes were self-evident. He hoped that Liu Ye would analyze Wei Yan's true purpose for him. Only by knowing Wei Yan's true purpose could he plan a targeted encirclement and suppression plan.

His eyes were sincere, but this time even Liu Ye couldn't accurately judge Wei Yan's purpose.

Liu Ye is a genius of the world, but he is not a god.

And the more talented they are, the more information they need to give full play to their talents.

Now Liu Ye has received intelligence that Wei Yan used maneuverable tactics to throw off the armies of Han De and Wang Shuang, and continued to advance westward.

But even this information became less reliable under the influence of Wei Yan's previous actions.

After all, Wei Yan led the army all the way westward, just like he led the army all the way to Nanzheng quickly, he was the one who made it visible to the Wei army.

But Wei Yan could continue to make a big reversal, and he could also lead his army south, out of Dingjun Mountain and back to Jiange.

In the art of war, it is always difficult to distinguish between reality and reality.

In desperation, Liu Ye could only say to Cao Zhen, "The general can order General Annan to move with his camera."

General Annan refers to Fei Yao.

After hearing Liu Ye's advice, Cao Zhen said in his heart that it was impossible not to be disappointed.

But he also understood Liu Ye's helplessness.

With the current situation, even if Emperor Wu is resurrected, Wei Yan's true purpose cannot be determined in a short period of time.

Liu Ye's advice may be the most suitable solution for Wei Jun at the moment.

After all, no matter whether Wei Yan continues to advance west, south or north, Fei Yao's army outside Hancheng is the only hope to stop Wei Yan.

Cao Zhen asked Liu Ye to write a military order and send it to Fei Yao quickly. The military order was carried out as Liu Ye said. Then Cao Zhen felt tired and asked the generals to retreat.

After all the generals in the tent left the big tent, Cao Zhen's mood not only did not calm down, but on the contrary, he became more and more angry.

In the decades since he led the army, he has never been tricked like this!

If he was deceived by Mi Yang in this way, Cao Zhen could still comfort himself by saying that it would not be shameful to suffer losses in Mi Yang's hands.

But who is Wei Yan?

Thinking of this, Cao Zhen was so angry that he pushed the entire desk in front of him up into the air. When the heavy desk fell from high altitude, all the good news on the desk were scattered to the ground.

What a mess.

Only then did Cao Zhen understand why Cao Pi had repeatedly told him when he left Luoyang that he must have a good attitude when fighting Mi Yang.

Cao Zhen had never fought against the Han army before. He remembered that before Mi Yang appeared, the Han army's fighting style was quite satisfactory.

Famous generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all like to have open and close battles. How can they be as treacherous and changeable as they are now?

But what about after Mi Yang appeared?

What kind of freaks are the leaders of the Han army now?

If Mi Yang doesn't die, he will suffer endless disasters!

No matter how fast Wei Yan marched, the army could not move faster than the messenger with the blessing of a horse.

Before Wei Yan's army arrived outside Seoul, Fei Yao, who was leading the attack, received Cao Zhen's military order.

After reading the contents of Cao Zhen's military order, Fei Yao's mind was filled with questions.

He knew the previous movements of Wei Yan's army, and he also knew that Cao Zhen had arranged for two armies to outflank Wei Yan's army.

In Fei Yao's view, Cao Zhen's arrangement was enough to defeat Wei Yan's army.

But what he didn't expect was that within a few days, he would learn that Wei Yan's army was about to cross the encirclement and arrive outside Seoul.

Even a veteran like Fei Yao couldn't accept such a strong reversal for a while.

Especially the words "act with camera" in Cao Zhen's military order made Fei Yao lose his mind for a while.

After pondering for a long time, veteran Fei Yao made a safe arrangement.

He left 5,000 troops to continue the siege of Seoul, while he himself led 5,000 Wei troops to cross the Han River south, preparing to block the continued advance of Wei Yan's army.

Behind Wei Yan's army, Wang Shuang's five thousand Wei troops were in hot pursuit, although it would take some time for Wang Shuang's army to catch up with Wei Yan's army.

But as long as Fei Yao can lead the army to hold off Wei Yan's army for a few days, then Wei Yan will inevitably be attacked from both sides.

In terms of tactical arrangements, Fei Yao fully demonstrated the qualities of a veteran.

It's a pity that there is still a gap between veterans and famous generals.

Not long after, the scouts sent by Fei Yao reported back a piece of news that scared him out of his wits.

Just when Wei Yan led his army to reach a hundred miles away from Seoul, Wei Yan did not lead his army to continue advancing westward.

He ordered the entire army to cut down a large amount of wood and make simple wooden boats, which allowed Wei Yan to successfully allow 5,000 Han troops to cross the Han River and return to the north bank of the Han River.

If this news alone would not frighten Fei Yao.

He had already anticipated Wei Yan's plan.

Therefore, he still left five thousand Wei troops on the north bank.

What shocked Fei Yao was that after Wei Yan led his army across the Han River, he headed straight north towards the Xie Valley.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Where is Xiegu?

That was one of the two main passages for the Wei army to enter Hanzhong. Although the Wei army had safely walked out of the Xie Valley, the people came out and a large amount of military rations were still stored outside the entrance of the Xie Valley!

Previously, in order to attack the counties and cities in Hanzhong, the Wei army dispersed most of its troops to attack. As a result, Xiekou's defense force could not be said to be weak, but it was definitely not strong.

Fei Yao couldn't even imagine the consequences if Wei Yan led his army to suddenly attack Xiegukou.

The key battle for the establishment of Cao Wei was the Battle of Guandu. In the Battle of Guandu, the reason why Cao Cao was able to defeat the strong with the weak was because he took advantage of Yuan Shao's unpreparedness and burned most of Yuan's army's food and grass.

Because of this war example, Cao Cao had very strict provisions in the military law regarding the protection of military food bases in order to prevent his own army from encountering such a tragic ending.

According to the military law set by Cao Cao, regardless of whether Wei Yan could successfully capture Xiegukou, Fei Yao could not bear the responsibility simply because he put Xiegukou in danger.

Who can not be afraid of the punishment of the three clans?

After realizing this, Fei Yao couldn't care less about blocking Wei Yan's army in Nan'an.

He immediately led his army back to the north bank, and then without even taking care of Seoul, he directly gathered 10,000 Wei troops and retreated fifty miles all the way to guard the only way from Seoul to Luogukou.

But what Fei Yao didn't expect was that after waiting for a long time after leading the army to garrison, there was still no sign of Wei Yan's army.

Until a few days later, news came like a bolt from the blue.

Wei Yan took advantage of the Wei army's massive retreat and led the army quickly through Seoul and headed towards Yangping Pass!

This news proves that Fei Yao was also tricked by Wei Yan.

Where is Wei Yan going?

He is going to Yangping Pass!
