General Fei Qian of Zhengxi suddenly felt that he had become a bald man.
Liu Bei occupied the Sichuan-Sichuan Chengdu area, and the plan he adopted was a typical plan to win over the marginalized, attack the vested interests together, and then win over the middle ones to redistribute interests, while Fei Qian was like watching the fire from the other side, ready to attack Chengdu at any time.
That faction.
Therefore, even if Fei Qian is not ready to march immediately, he still needs to show a certain degree of strength, otherwise Liu Bei, who picked the peaches, may actually eat them all.
The person responsible for showing strength is Wei Yan.
There is also Huang Cheng who is following Wei Yan.
One in front and one behind, one bright and one dark.
It is now autumn, and the temperature is quite pleasant. Up and down the mountains, earthy yellow and green colors are mixed together, and there are not many signs of decay.
Originally, this mountainous area was a paradise for birds and animals, with everything they had here. But now, the years of peace in the mountains have been broken by a surging crowd of people.
Although the number of people led by Wei Yan was not very large, they were winding along the mountain road and looked like they were all over the mountains and plains. The army's ranks spread along the mountain road to the valley, and then entered and exited the foothills again, stretching side by side for several miles.
The scouts responsible for liaison and route planning walked through the rugged roads, responding to the numerous military columns nearby and adjusting the speed of the groups of troops.
Wei Yan hopes that he can be a general with ten thousand people and be able to control ten thousand people, but he also knows that he cannot do this now. Between a general with a thousand people and a general with ten thousand people, it is not as simple as the number of people superimposed. What is more important is the difficulty of deployment.
Climbing, this increase in difficulty, is not the sum of the number of people, but the multiplication.
A general with a hundred men can bravely kill the enemy, boost morale on the front line, and seize the opportunity to break the formation to kill the enemy general. This is considered very good, and he has become the first choice for the vanguard. A general with a thousand men needs to consider the front and rear of the formation.
There are tasks such as transfer, mutual coordination of soldiers, arrangement of attack waves, adjustment of personnel and equipment, etc. However, when entering the category of generals with ten thousand people, in addition to the above, you must also understand the advantages and disadvantages of each unit, the position arrangement of each general, and the arrangement of each general.
The echoes of an attack, the utilization of each piece of space...
Even if the number and type of soldiers on both sides are the same, a wise commander will even suppress the opponent throughout the whole process, and then deal with it until the opponent is crying for help.
In reality, soldiers will get tired. The time for ordinary soldiers to fight with all their strength is usually between a quarter and two quarters of an hour, which is about 15 to 30 minutes. After this time, the soldiers' physical strength will be greatly reduced.
If it drops, it is easy to be defeated by the opponent's new force, so the soldiers with reduced physical strength are replaced in waves to rest and recuperate. This is the advanced course for the Hundred-Man General and Thousand-Man General.
For tens of thousands of generals, this control is to be extended to every area on the battlefield, and whether every front line conforms to their own plan, how long the fighting fronts need to be maintained, whether the damage rate is acceptable, and what happens.
Whether emergencies require the dispatch of soldiers to adjust, etc., they must respond at an extreme time, or even instantly. Such requirements are a great challenge for Wei Yan, who has not been leading troops for a long time.
For the current Wei Yan, five thousand people is probably the upper limit, and the current three thousand or so is still better. As for commanding more than ten thousand people, I am afraid that he still needs to accumulate considerable experience before he can be somewhat confident.
Because the mountains in the Sichuan-Sichuan area are undulating, the march naturally cannot maintain a unified military momentum, but must become a long snake winding around. Wei Yan carefully planned and divided the army into six parts, slowing down and echoing the previous steps.
Each day's itinerary must be assisted by the detection of the scouts. After planning the speed and goals for the next day in detail, advance slowly under the road signs set by the scouts to avoid the appearance of soldiers at any time.
Overworked, or even out of touch with the military formation, we strive to be in the safest posture to meet any enemy that may appear at any time.
After all, entering such an area where enemies are likely to appear on the left and right, it would definitely not work if we were not cautious.
Fu County is in the northwest, Zitong is in the northeast, and Wei Yan is in the middle, like a triangle. Although Huang Cheng's troops are hiding behind as support, Wei Yan of course wants to solve it by himself.
The more meritorious deeds your family has, the better...
Although the speed was not fast and the posture was conservative, when Wei Yan slowly advanced with his soldiers, when the three-color flags pressed towards Fu County like a forest, it still put great pressure on Zhang Fei's defenders in Fu County.
The Sichuan-Sichuan garrison in the direction of Zitong seemed to be silent, waiting for something, as if they had no intention of participating in this battle.
As the distance between the two sides approached, around 6 o'clock on the eighth day of October, Liu Bei's flag of the Liu family of Sichuan and Shu appeared in Wei Yan's field of vision...
Half an hour later, the battle started.
Wei Yanjun mainly attacked, and Sichuan and Shu soldiers mainly defended.
"Woo... Wuwu Wuwu..." The sound of long horns echoed in the mountains, and the figures spread forward and backward. On the gentle slopes and flatlands in the mountains of Sichuan and Sichuan, one by one, groups of people spread out piece by piece.
, from the sight of the defensive camp of Sichuan and Shu, it seems to stretch to the other side of the sky.
This camp can barely be regarded as an outpost of Fujian County.
There are many mountainous areas in Sichuan and Sichuan, and the commerce is not bad, so with the development of caravans, there is a trade that naturally produces bandits.
In order to maintain trade routes, most of the key points between Sichuan and Sichuan counties will have such camps, ranging from a team to a song, blocking the main passages and responsible for the security of the area. Of course, if it is
Those trails through the mountains are generally not used by caravans, so naturally there will be no outposts and camps like this.
In order to resist the troops conquering the West, the outpost camp has obviously been reinforced again. The new wood sections exposed on the camp wall can explain some problems. In the rush, these woods were not painted with raw paint to prevent insects.
There is no calcining the surface to prevent corrosion. It is simply pasted with a layer of mud. In some places, it is not pasted at all and is exposed.
Wei Yan observed silently. Although he came from afar, he did not let the soldiers rest, but directly entered the battle. He believed that his soldiers in the expedition to the west had such strength. It was also a test. After all, the one who blocked the road was
Yingzhai is just an outpost camp in Fujian County. You can pay attention to it and be cautious, but you can't show timidity or fear.
Wei Yan decided that for the first battle, he would choose to break through the village gate directly, fight hard, go head-on, defeat these Sichuan and Shu troops as soon as possible, and end the battle.
Wei Yan turned his head and issued an order to the messengers on the side. Immediately, the messengers began to wave flags, and the horns of horns also sounded, conveying the message to the military formations at the front...
In the front line of Wei Yan, Gao Ran was lecturing his men, who were also his companions, in a wasteland behind a bush at the foot of the mountain.
This bush happened to cover the figures of Gao Ran and others, so that they were not directly exposed to the sight of the Sichuan and Sichuan defenders, but it did not prevent them from receiving the signal sent by Wei Yan.
Gao Ran and others were the biggest contributors to breaking through the gate of Langzhong Wengcheng and capturing the tortoise shell shield formation in one fell swoop.
The leader of the team, Gao Ran, was selected from the poor students in the academy, especially as the leader of these special battle formations. He is now in his thirties, with steady eyes, a body like an iron tower, and rough skin on his hands.
The tiger's mouth is covered with calluses, which are the traces left by the training outside the battle array and the slashing and killing in the battle array.
Gao Ran has studied and been a refugee for a while. He understands the difficulty of life and the value of life. At the same time, with a certain knowledge, he can accept some special tactics and instructions more easily than ordinary generals. He has also become a
The powerful middle-level force in Zhengxi General Fei Qian's army.
Gao Ran has a solid and brave temperament, but he does not have outstanding planning ability, so he is more suitable to fight on the front line, rather than staying in the back position to deploy and rule. Today, he is leading a special force under Zhengxi
The total number of people in the turtle formation who came to break the door was nearly four hundred, half of whom were veterans, and the rest of the recruits were mostly high-quality recruits who had been selected for more than a year.
Although Gao Ran and others had already made their appearance in Langzhong, in the Han Dynasty, when information transmission was shockingly backward, the Sichuan and Shu soldiers in Fuxian County did not know what was special about Gao Ran and others.
Or among the conquering soldiers coming from the mountains, each of these conquering army formations in front of them is equally mysterious and terrifying.
"...Say it again! Listen carefully! After the first wave of military formations retreats, we will move forward to the reserve line. When the second wave of military formations begin to fight, we will move forward.
, gather outside a stone's throw away and form a formation! The target is the village gate on the opposite side! Pay attention! Don't rush! If anyone's steps are messed up like last time in Langzhong, come back and practice holding three shields alone for three days! Listen!
Do you understand?"
Gao Ran stretched out his big hands like cattail fans and patted each other, "Cheer up, this is a mountain road, it's not flat! You have to not only look at the road, but also the height of the shield! You have to make adjustments in time... Qian
Don’t mess around. If you are really going to get hurt, don’t be afraid. Cover your head and chest with a shield and lie down..."
Gao Ran said, emphasizing the key points repeatedly.
"Gao Junhou, don't worry, we'll take care of it..." After Gao Ran finished speaking, one of his team leaders said with a smile, "How long have we been practicing? This is a small village... Come on, is there anyone?
If you are afraid, say it without any shame, and don’t waste your brother’s life! Practice more during this period, and you can do it next time!”
A flurry of voices started to ring up, "Hey! It's my grandson who's afraid of what I'm saying!"
"That's it, what a joke, there aren't many people over there!"
"Isn't it just a copycat? It's just for a while!"
The group of people laughed, but there was really not much nervousness.
The horn sounded again, and the flag representing Gao Ran's unit was raised among the Chinese army, swinging back and forth in a circle. Gao Ran saw it at a glance, and signaled his flag bearers to respond to the Chinese army, and said, "OK!
It’s okay if you’re not afraid! But be careful, I’ve recorded their respective locations! Okay! It’s our turn!”
Just after noon, the sun was high in the sky, the sky was blue, and there were no clouds in the sky. But on the mountain road, among the yellow leaves and yellow sand, blood was flying everywhere.
Due to the terrain, there were no more than two hundred people fighting on the entire battle line. The two sides combined, that is, four to five hundred people. But it was equally tragic. The first wave of soldiers from the Zhengxi soldiers tried to clear the way.
Many people were hit by arrows and fell down on the yellow sand due to the traps and obstacles on the mountain. Many of the archers in the village were suppressed and covered by Wei Yan's archers and crossbowmen, and the walls of the village seemed to suddenly suddenly
As if there was an extra layer of spikes, the tail feathers of the arrow were stained with bright red blood and swayed in the wind...
Gao Ran and others gathered on the reserve line in a tacit understanding. At the same time, the second wave of Zhengxi soldiers rushing forward had already cleared away all the antlers and traps along the way.
"It's done! It's our turn!" Gao Ran shouted in victory, "Get ready to form a formation!"
The soldiers responded loudly, and then gathered together. The shield formation that had appeared under Langzhong City once again appeared at the outpost of Fuxian County...
…………………………
"What!"
Wu Yi grabbed the soldier who came to report, with veins popping out on his head, "Tell me again! How long did it take to defeat the three villages in the expedition to the west?"
"General, general..." The poor soldier swallowed his saliva, "In one... in one day..., company, company... even defeated three villages... the distance from here is already less than fifty miles!"
"Ah!" Wu Yi shouted angrily and pushed the soldiers away with one palm. The expression on his face changed very wonderfully.
Any plan may encounter unexpected changes.
To flood the soldiers in the west, whether it is to intercept the Fu River and build a dam or to store the water, it will take time. Therefore, Wu Yi specially sent some soldiers to strengthen and repair the military strongholds outside Fu County in an attempt to use
These military strongholds delayed Wei Yan's advance and bought him time to do something in Fushui. But what Wu Yi didn't expect was that Wei Yan's edge was so sharp!
Wu Yi thought that the three outposts that were almost connected together could resist for at least two to three days. In fact, they were all defeated by Wei Yan in one day!
Damn, damn!
"Go and see how long it will take for the embankment!" Wu Yi grabbed one of his personal guards and ordered eagerly. However, the guard who came back shortly after brought back a piece of news that made Wu Yi extremely disappointed.
The felled trees were dropped in the upper reaches of the Fujian River and tied together. The soil is being excavated and filled in the middle, but it will still take at least one to two days before they can be closed to store water!
After hearing the news, Wu Yi was like an ant on a hot pot, spinning around.
Wei Yan is only forty or fifty miles away from here. Even though it is getting late now, Wei Yan's troops are unlikely to travel overnight, but they will normally arrive here tomorrow. Maybe their scouts...
Wu Yi shuddered and immediately ordered: "Come here! Send additional scouts to the east coast to find out the movements of the troops marching to the west!"
