Chapter 51 The arrow is already on the string and must be fired

 Yang Tongshan could understand what the Wuguan guard said.

It is no longer possible to defraud Wuguan.

"General!"

"Order!"

The young general glanced at the top of Wuguan City and asked Yang Tongshan for his orders: "Since he doesn't want to open and close the gate, we can just take the bird pass from him."

Yang Tongshan did not respond.

However, his mind is running rapidly. It may be possible to storm Wuguan, but he will face a heavy price.

Although he has never fought in a war before.

However, he still understands the principle of killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred. According to previous information, the number of Wuguan defenders is not large.

However, if a dangerous pass like Wuguan is not available, and there are no troops several times larger than the enemy's army, to attack Wuguan by force, even if the pass is captured in the end, there will be very few soldiers and horses under his command.

Of course, Yang Tongshan is also very anxious.

If Wuguan is not captured as soon as possible, His Majesty's conspiracy will soon be exposed, as the guard just said.

He already knew that the Han army defrauded Tongguan yesterday.

The generals at Wuguan already know the news, so Luoyang will definitely know it soon.

Quickly straightening out his thoughts, Yang Tongshan shouted loudly to the city: "The general is right, Tongguan was indeed defrauded by the Shu army yesterday, but early this morning, the governor has sent troops to recover Tongguan."

Before the city guard responded, Yang Tongshan said with a smile: "The governor was worried that the Shu army would take the opportunity to seize Wuguan again, so he specially ordered the last general to come for reinforcements to assist the general in guarding Wuguan."

"Hahaha!" The guard at the head of the city laughed loudly and said: "Thank you for your concern, the Governor. Wuguan is now guarded by the last general. The last general will ensure that Wuguan is safe. General, please go back and report to the Governor."

Yang Tongshan was helpless, and then he changed his voice and asked sternly: "The general came to assist the general in guarding the pass on the order of the governor, but the general is so suspicious. Could it be that the general has surrendered to the Shu army?"

As soon as Yang Tongshan finished speaking, the soldiers behind him immediately unsheathed their swords, as if something was amiss they would immediately rush to the top of the city.

The guard general was not angry but smiled instead: "Don't ask for a thief and call me a thief. I am the general guarding the pass in the Wei Dynasty. How can I be deceived by your little tricks?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the defenders at the top of the city also drew their bowstrings, and the battle was about to break out.

Yang Tongshan suddenly laughed.

There is no point in continuing to talk and talk. Now that the identity has been discovered by the other party, Yang Tongshan gave up his original plan.

I saw him pointing his spear and shouting sternly: "Since you know that I am a warrior general of the Han Dynasty, if you don't surrender quickly, you know that the entire Guanzhong is now owned by my Han Dynasty."

"Surrender?" The guard sneered, and then waved his hand, and arrows rained down from the city in an instant. Yang Tongshan and his sergeants hurriedly retreated back.

When they retreated to eight or nine hundred meters away from the gate, they stopped. However, in the distance at the top of Wuguan City, a shrill and piercing sound of ridicule could be heard.

"General!"

"What should I do?"

The sergeants around them were a little anxious. When they entered Guanzhong from the surprise attack, they all knew that the key to this trip was surprise, so they were all lightly armed and did not carry any siege equipment.

Such a dangerous pass, without siege equipment.

It is really difficult for them to seize Wuguan, but if they do not seize this pass, Wei's army will arrive soon, and by then, they will die without a burial place.<

/p>

Yang Tongshan is also very anxious.

Fraud is not allowed.

Even a forceful attack will not work.

Is it possible to do this and watch?

However, the sky was getting dark at this moment. Yang Tongshan first asked the sergeants to camp on the spot, and then thought of a way to break through the barrier.

Just when Yang Tongshan failed to capture Wuguan, hundreds of miles away in Wancheng, a middle-aged man frowned.

"Father!"

"This matter should be reported to the court as soon as possible."

Before the young man finished speaking, the middle-aged man waved his hand: "Now it will take more than ten days to report to the court. By the time the imperial edict arrives, it will be too late."

"Father!" the young man asked, "What should we do about this matter?"

"No hurry, no rush!" The middle-aged man smiled and said, "The people from Sucha told Shen Yi to stabilize Meng Da first, and then I will write a letter to Meng Da in the name of the court to appease him.



"I understand that even if Meng Da is suspicious, he will relax his vigilance." Then he told the young man: "You must quickly gather all the troops and horses, and follow my father to rush to Shangyong to put down the rebellion."

"No!"

When the young man heard the words, he immediately agreed, turned around and retreated, leaving the middle-aged man with a faint smile: "Meng Dapifu, I will capture you alive."

This person is none other than Sima Yi, the cavalry general of Cao Wei. Earlier, Shen Yi, the prefect of Wei Xing, sent a letter to inform him that Meng Da, the prefect of Xincheng, was about to rebel against Wei and surrender to Shu.

At this time, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, had led his troops out of Qishan. If Meng Da took the opportunity to rebel, this would not be a good thing for the Wei Dynasty.

March 16, early morning.

Sima Yi first sent someone to deliver a message to the new city, and then personally led eight thousand light cavalry towards the new city.

That is when Sima Yi sent out troops, a young man in his twenties walked into the Xincheng Prefecture.

"Master Taishou!"

"Sima Yi has already left Wancheng and will arrive at Xincheng within ten days." The young man said seriously: "If the prefect wants to cause trouble, he should make preparations in advance."

Meng Da glanced at the letter in his hand, but asked the young man doubtfully: "Who are you? How did you know that I wanted to surrender to the Han?"

"Go back to the Grand Administrator!" The young man smiled and said, "My name is Li Jie, and I am a secret agent of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Naturally, I know that the Grand Administrator is going to return to the Han Dynasty."

Hiss——

Secret agent?

Emperor of the Han Dynasty?

Meng Da looked at Li Jie, and doubts suddenly arose in his heart. He thought, isn't Liu Chan, the great emperor, just a little kid who doesn't care about political affairs?

Why did he become a spy?

Li Jie seemed to see Meng Da's doubts. He glanced around and then whispered: "Master Taishou, there is no need to doubt that as early as two years ago, Your Majesty placed thousands of spies in Wei and Wu.

This is one of them."

"The day before yesterday, Shen Yi reported the governor's intention to surrender to the Han Dynasty to Sima Yi."

"Last night, your majesty arranged for an informant at Sima Yi's house to inform you that after receiving the letter, Sima Yi did not immediately report it to the court. Instead, he sent someone to write a letter in order to appease the prefect. Early this morning, Sima Yi personally led 20,000 light cavalry.

Already coming to the new city."

"In a few days, Shen Yi will cooperate internally and externally to help Sima Yi capture the prefect alive."

Hiss——

Meng Da suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

He already had a rift with Shen Yi. Although his intention to surrender to the Han Dynasty was extremely confidential, if Shen Yi knew about it, he would definitely expose it to him.

If what this person says is true, I will be in danger.

Just when Meng Da was confused, Li Jie continued: "If the prefect does not believe what I say, he can detain me in the house first, and then take precautions in advance and wait for a few days to see if he will receive a letter of comfort from Sima Yi.

, If you want to write a letter, hurry up and the letter will be delivered to the prefect in less than three days. By then, it will still be ready in time."

"If within a few days, the prefect does not see Sima Yi's letter, nor does he see Sima Yi leading troops to attack, the prefect can behead his subordinates."

Makes sense.

As the governor of one side, Meng Da is naturally not a fool. No matter what this person says is true or false, it will not cost him much to be prepared in advance. If what this person says is true, he will not wait until Sima Yi

When they arrived, they were captured without mercy.
