Chapter 1752 Zhuge Liang flooded the three armies
After Zhuge Liang "died" in the battle, Li Mu had fully taken over the war on the southern front of Jingbei, and successively set up defense lines in Hanjin, Dangyang, Linju, and Yicheng.
The princes of Nanyang Central Plains began to mobilize their troops, leaving Yue Fei, Xie An, Xian Zhen and others to take a breather. Yue Fei even took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
These battles on the southern front of Jingbei were bloody and deadly battles. Both sides went all out in every battle. Even high-level god-level generals like Lu Er were injured in the siege battles. It can be seen that these few battles have been bloody and deadly. The battle is so intense!
However, Liu Xiu, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Xu Shiji had many powerful generals under their command. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang attacked the weak enemy and did not confront Li Mu at all. Taking advantage of his own strength, he sent a general who was optimistic about Hanjin's Li Mu, and the rest of his troops attacked Dangyang. Linju.
No matter how strong Li Mu is, there is not much room for him to show off at this time. After all, Xu Da's ability is not necessarily worse than Li Mu's, and if Xu Da just keeps an eye on Li Mu, how much room does Li Mu have to play tricks?
Dangyang, Linju was lost, and Li Mu of Hanjin had to leave at this time. If the defense line completely collapsed, if he didn't leave, he would be made dumplings by the enemy!
It was not until they reached Yicheng, the second line of defense, that Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Mu finally had another head-on confrontation.
In order to break the turtle shell of Li Mu, Zhu Yuanzhang was even forced to charge personally. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang was forced by Li Mu to use any despicable means, and even ordered Lu Ya to secretly attack the generals of the Jin army.
After Zhu Yuanzhang played this trick, it can be said that almost every Jin general was defending the city with his life, and faced the risk of losing his life at every moment. Nine generals including She Zhong, Zheng Hong, Yi Sheng, and Qiu Qi Died in Lu Ya's hands.
Even Li Mu would have been killed by Lu Ya's flying knife if Shi Gandang hadn't rescued him in time.
Zhu Yuanzhang left a total of 20,000 soldiers and horses in such a small city, and finally broke this turtle shell.
After Yicheng, they are two of the five strongest cities in northern Jingzhou. Under the deliberate construction of the Jin army, Wancheng in Nanyang, Jiangling in Nanjun, Xiakou in Jiangxia, and Xiangyang and Fancheng in Xiangyang County are Jingcheng. The five strongest cities in the north.
What Zhu Yuanzhang faced next was two of them, Xiangyang and Fancheng. These two cities faced each other across the river. Attacking this place was the most vulnerable to being attacked by water. Especially when the rainy season is coming, once someone is in If you move your hands and feet above the river, even if the whole army is not completely wiped out, it will definitely be almost there!
However, I'm afraid Zhu Yuanzhang would never have expected at that time that he had been so careful, but still suffered a loss in terms of water!
As for Yu Wenxian, it was impossible for him to become Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant when he first arrived. However, Zhu Yuanzhang never doubted Yu Wenxian's position. At this time, Yu Wenxian had no possibility of returning to the Jin army.
And this is why Zhuge Liang believes that Yu Wenxian is the most suitable person for his plan. In addition to Yu Wenxian being suitable in terms of software, he is also absolutely suitable in terms of hardware!
Yu Wenxian personally asked for orders, hoping to persuade Yu Wengui to surrender.
None of this is good news, and Zhu Yuanzhang and the others can only be forced to speed up their progress. They can't wait until the Jin army has defeated Yizhou, and they are still dilly-dallying here in Xiangyang!
If a person is really not in a hurry, he will naturally be less likely to make mistakes! Only when he is anxious, he may unconsciously reveal his flaws! No matter how powerful a person is, the more anxious he is, the more mistakes he will make.
possible!
That is to say, when Zhu Yuanzhang was most anxious, Yu Wenxian took action!
Therefore, after Zhu Yuanzhang arrived at this place, the first thing he did was not attack the city, but sent generals to check the situation in the upper reaches of Xiangshui River. And, out of caution, Zhu Yuanzhang sent light troops there every three days
After checking it again, there is no possibility of anyone tampering with the river water!
Moreover, during this period of time, Fushuifang has organized several assassinations against Yu Wenxian. The most serious one almost led to Fushuifang succeeding. Such a drastic method showed that Yu Wenxian had the highest authority.
A level of killing order.
The next thing that faced Zhu Yuanzhang was the problem of attacking the city. Twenty thousand lives were lost in the small city before. If it were replaced by these two strong cities, if that method was used to attack, what would happen behind the scenes?
The loss required may be too great!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed impatient at this time. The news in Shuzhong was not good. First, Yang Su rebelled, and Liu Che's news of the loss of Baishui Pass came out. After that, Bajun was opened up, and Wu Qi's troops were completely destroyed.
It was so easy that the Jin army could even directly avoid the four passes in northern Shu.
Within Fancheng, Yu Wengui is one of the guards. Moreover, Yu Wengui cannot be temporarily transferred there. This clumsy method can easily arouse suspicion. Yu Wengui had been transferred as early as two years ago
We have arrived in Fancheng.
Therefore, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang must have a considerable degree of trust in Yu Wenxian. Moreover, even if it is to serve as a public figure, Zhu Yuanzhang must have high-ranking officials, generous salaries, and various rewards for Yu Wenxian.
Sending it back and forth from both ends of the sky.
Not to mention Yu Wenxian really helped them open the gate of Jiangling City, and during this period of time, Yu Wenxian had the blood of many important people who entered the army on his hands! People of the Li family, people of the Wang family,
Even including Zhuge Liang, one of the best people in the first imperial examination.
Yu Wenxian could give Zhu Yuanzhang such an effective suggestion at this time, and Zhu Yuanzhang was quite happy. Regardless of whether he could succeed or not, he had to at least let Yu Wenxian give it a try!
Yu Wenxian finally lived up to Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations and successfully persuaded Yu Wengui to surrender to Wu! But on the night of the operation, Yu Wenxian seemed to suddenly realize that something was wrong with Yu Wengui! At the last moment, Yu Wenxian proposed to Zhu Yuanzhang what he thought about Yu Wengui
Guess it’s a fake surrender!
Zhu Yuanzhang was already on guard against this matter, and was on guard against the other party pretending to surrender! Now that Yu Wenxian was suspicious, he was even more guarded!
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang decisively engaged in a trick of taking advantage of the situation. In this battle, due to Li Mu's timely response, coupled with the deadly battle of Shi Gandang, Yue Lun and other generals, although Zhu Yuanzhang was ultimately defeated, it also caused heavy losses to the Fancheng defenders.
Moreover, after experiencing this incident, Zhu Yuanzhang's trust in Yu Wenxian has obviously been further improved!
