Yang Song wants to curse now. Isn't this the powerful noble family in Hanzhong that has been conquered by them?
Now Liu Bei has recruited more than 200,000 civilians and soldiers in Hanzhong, and consumes more than 500,000 shi of food every month! Although Liu Bei has brought some food from Shuzhong to Hanzhong in the past two months, it is only a drop in the bucket. , now it is almost equivalent to the entire Hanzhong people relying on them to support them. With such a huge consumption, even the entire Hanzhong noble family cannot provide for more than half a year, and now Yuan Ji means to eat them up. !
It's okay to eat them all, but if Liu Bei's army retreats to the line of Micang Mountain, it is equivalent to handing over the entire hinterland of Hanzhong to the Daqian Army, and these are their population and territory. Giving up these places, They really had no choice but to follow Liu Bei and flee to Shu. For Yang Song and the others, this situation was only slightly better than losing their families and their families.
Now he feels a little regretful. If he had known that Liu Bei was so invincible, they might as well have followed Zhang Lu and joined the army. Although the land may be divided, the family property can be saved, but now the land is almost gone, and the family property has also been destroyed. Liu Bei's army has consumed almost as much. They have worked so hard to cause so many things, but they are asking for trouble!
But at this time Liu Bei said firmly: "We can't retreat. If we retreat, we will never come back. Moreover, compared with grain and grass, it is not the ambition of Bin Chang who will destroy his prestige. Daqian's grain income next year will be more than 1 billion shi. There are hundreds of millions of stones of grain in Gan's granary. Not to mention the thousands of miles of grain roads, even with the thousands of miles of grain roads, we can't compare to Lei Gong! Now our only chance of winning is to drive the Daqian army out of Hanzhong and rely on the terrain of Hanzhong to resist the big army. Ganjun’s attack!”
Liu Bei looked at the map of Shuzhong and said solemnly: "Let Zhang Ren lead an army of 30,000 to support Zilong and the others. We must not let Zhang Bai ride and attack Hanzhong! At the same time, he ordered Yan Yan in Guanghan County to lead an army of 30,000 to attack Xiliang. In Wudu County, we cut off Liu Shi's food route and forced him to withdraw from Yangping Pass!"
"General, the journey from Guanghan to Wudu is thousands of miles. I'm afraid it will be difficult to cut off Liu Shi's retreat in a short time. And if there are soldiers in Wudu County to block it, I'm afraid it will take even more time! Even Yan Yan The general may fall in Xiliang!" Yuan Ji felt helpless when he heard Liu Bei's words.
Doesn't this expand the scale of the war again? The general only remembers that we can't do as much as we can in terms of food and grass, but forgets that we can't do as much as we can in terms of troops. He knows that Xiliang is a place where there are not many people, but it can be done easily. His father (Yuan Gu) was troubled by the rebellion in Xiliang. No one could explain why Xiliang, which only had hundreds of thousands of households in its household registration, could raise more than a dozen people just by rebelling. Ten thousand troops!
He was not optimistic that the Yizhou Army could defeat the Xiliang Army in Wudu. He was afraid that Liu Shi would send 5,000 elite cavalry to prevent Yan Yan's 30,000 army from advancing or retreating!
Yuan Ji's words made the camp quiet down, because everyone opposed what Yuan Ji said was very possible. Don't look at the fact that Liu Shi had already recruited 50,000 troops in Xiliang, but they knew that when Lei Gong decided to conquer Xiliang, Millions of Qiang people were captured, and now these Qiang people have become Lei Gong's most loyal subordinates. When their Yizhou army invades Xiliang, they are afraid that they will soon face tens of thousands of Xiliang cavalry. And in In a place as vast as Xiliang, no one would expect Yan Yan's infantry to defeat Xiliang's cavalry!
And just when the scene was quiet, a voice whispered: "If we really want to cut off Liu Shi's grain road, we don't have to pass through Wudu from Guanghan County. We can completely insert into Liu Shi's rear from the Yangpingguan Trail!"
Liu Bei looked at the direction of the voice in surprise. It turned out that the speaker was Yang Ang. He narrowly escaped the fall of Yangping Pass, and then he stayed with Liu Pan on Zoumaling. It's a small transparent stick.
After Yang Ang was inspired by Liu Bei's gaze, he walked to Liu Bei's map of Yizhou and said: "There is a trail in the mountains around Yangping Pass. It is a mountain trail opened up by smugglers, but it can cross Yangping Pass and go straight to Yangping Pass. As long as we capture Dingjun Mountain in the rear, we can cut off Liu Shi's food route, and Liu Shi will have to withdraw from Yangping Pass!"
Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard me and asked excitedly: "Is this true?"
Yang Ang said: "I am willing to pledge my head as a guarantee!"
Liu Bei shouted: "Wei Yan listens to the order!"
Wei Yan came out and said: "The general is here! You lead 5,000 men and horses to follow Yang Ang and cross Yangping Pass from this trail to cut off the food route of the Daqian Army!"
Wei Yan said: "The last general takes orders!"
Wei Yan and Yang Ang received military orders, and with Yang Ang as their guide, they found a mountain trail 30 miles away from Yangping Pass. Although this trail was narrow, it could pass the army, and the mountain was not too steep. , after leaving this mountain pass, you can see the original camp at Dingjun Mountain, but this camp has been abandoned, which is an advantage for Wei Yan and the others.
Wei Yan directed his troops to repair the camp, dig trenches, level the land at the highest point, and place the flying thunder cannons that followed him. Wei Yan arranged three artillery positions in one company, all of which were places where vitality could cross. After arranging all these commands, Wei Yan was confident that even if the Daqian Army had 100,000 troops, it would be impossible to break through the camp at Dingjun Mountain!
"Liu Bei, how dare you plot against me!" Although Wei Yan hid it well, there were 5,000 more people on the mountainside after all. In addition, Wei Yan's movements were very large, so Liu Shi soon discovered that there was an army behind him. The army and the Dingjun Mountain camp were actually recaptured by the Han army again, which put Liu Shi at Yangping Pass into a situation where he was attacked from both sides.
Liu Shi made a decisive decision and said: "Liang Xing, I have chosen you to lead 10,000 soldiers to attack Dingjun Mountain. You must defeat this Han army!"
Liang Xing, the Hou Xuan listed: "The last general will take orders!"
After saying that, the two of them led an army of 10,000 people to attack Dingjun Mountain!
It's a pity that Wei Yan had thunder cannons in his hands this time. When Liang Xing and the candidate led the army into the thunder cannon bombing range, Wei Yan ordered all the thunder cannons in his hands to fire at the same time!
The sound of "boom boom boom" explosions resounded throughout the valley. Faced with such a fierce bombing, the Xiliang army was thrown into chaos. Then Wei Yan pursued the victory and Liang Xing and the candidates were defeated in one battle with tens of thousands of troops. Return!
Liu Shi looked dejected! At this time, Han Sui suggested: "General, don't worry about the enemies on Dingjun Mountain at all. We just need to place the cavalry battalion aside to prevent them from coming down the mountain. It will be difficult for them to do anything, and their attributes are Although I don’t know how they climbed through the many mountain roads, since it is a mountain road, it is obviously not easy to walk. The soldiers can climb over it. Liu Bei also climbed over the mountain with food and grass. As long as we surround Dingjun Mountain, they will soon run out of food. of!"
