Chapter 172 Li Yan assassinated Zhuge Liang in the back
Chapter 172 Li Yan stabs Zhuge Liang in the back
Ma Su has always refused such good things that come to his door, and his higher education does not allow him to become chaotic as soon as he is in his arms.
Even if this girl is young and invincible, Ke Yukeli is 1.7 meters tall and has long legs...
Therefore, he kept saying "I can't do it, I can't do it", and he raised his sleeves and waved his shirt.
The candle was extinguished.
………
In the morning, Ma Su woke up quietly.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a large area of dazzling white snow...
Sunlight.
Shining in from the window.
Looking sideways, I saw that girl Qiyana was still asleep. Her mouth was slightly pouted, her pretty face was rosy, and there was a sweet smile between her eyebrows.
Ma Su moved his body carefully, trying not to wake her up.
Qiyana muttered something about "the joy given by wolves" and turned over, but did not wake up.
Ma Su put on his clothes and went out.
After washing up, I found Axiu and asked her to clear out a room in the palace for Qiyana to live in.
Then I went to Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun and learned about the progress of the resettlement of the people, the latest situation of the 20,000 prisoners, and the progress of the rescue of their families.
Finally, I had a heart-to-heart talk with Dai Ling.
Seeing that the latter's mood was very stable, Ma Su was filled with relief.
In short, everything is going well so far, all work is being carried out in an orderly manner, the large-scale transfer of people is progressing steadily, and the resettlement sites in the three counties are ready, waiting for these people who abandoned Wei and Touhan to move in.
In addition, Ma Su took a look at the system and found that the road construction progress was very smooth. It is expected that the 10,000-mile journey will be completed today. By then, a huge amount of stable points will be earned.
For Ma Su, as long as the rewards for this phase of the road construction project arrive, he can immediately start the "Domination of Xiliang" with difficulty level C, or the "Eagle Yang Western Region" with level B difficulty.
The most difficult one, "Tiger in Longyou", will not be considered for the time being.
This was a step he had planned as soon as he became the governor of Yongzhou. After more than a year of hard work to pacify the Western Qiang, he could finally see the dawn of the resurgence of the Shu Han and the hope of seizing Liangzhou.
Once he integrates the 50,000 cavalry under his command, it will not be too difficult to push Liangzhou flatly.
Ma Su was very much looking forward to seeing this shocking scene.
After the Wei State experienced several defeats, although the number of cavalry remained the same, the quality was no longer as good as it used to be.
The combat effectiveness of new recruits and veterans is very different.
Even the cavalry commander Zhang He was killed in battle.
The cavalrymen under Ma Su are all Qiang people who grew up on horses, and their horse handling skills are almost perfect.
Moreover, Zhuge Liang is now stationed at Wuzhangyuan and is still acting as a thorn in Guanzhong. This has hindered most of Wei's energy and prevented them from deploying their most powerful troops to Longyou or even Liangzhou.
In addition, Sun Quan marched out in three directions in the south, which also restrained a considerable part of Wei's energy.
If Kebi and Gongsun Yuan could attack Wei from the north and northeast at the same time...
The state of Wei might collapse.
Ma Su could already foresee this extremely wonderful scene unfolding.
Just as he was immersed in his fantasy, the system announcement sounded at the right time.
Double the happiness.
[Congratulations: The artery-level road mileage has exceeded 10,000 miles, and you have received a phased reward: 40,000 stability points.]
[Your current total assets: 73046.]
A row of huge bright red numbers floated across the light screen, +73046!
Ma Su's mood suddenly exploded with joy, as if he had just taken a sip of a rich drink, the sweetness flowed into his stomach, and the feeling of intoxication quickly spread to his limbs and bones, making his whole person feel as if he were in heaven.
He was so happy that he even wanted to sing a song on the spot.
Although Ma Su also knows that people cannot be so complacent.
But he couldn't help but punched the farmer three times.
Steady point and explosive growth + a night of wild deer collision, the happiness is more than doubled.
Triple it!
At this time, Zhang Xiu ran over in a panic, looking extremely anxious: "General, something serious is going wrong."
"Oh, why are you so nervous?" Ma Di waved his hand carelessly: "As a general, even if Mount Tai collapses in front of you, you will not change your expression, shouting and screaming, how can you behave..."
Zhang Xiu didn't wait for Ma Su to finish speaking and said, "General, Huang Xi and Li Sheng just got in touch with the local Shanyue leader in Jiangdong, and were surrounded by Ding Feng's troops. Now they don't know whether they are alive or dead."
Such an inch?!
Ma Su's face instantly collapsed in half.
Zhang Xiu took a breath: "As soon as Kebineng's soldiers and horses arrived at Shicheng, before they could take action, the tribe was attacked by Wang Meng and Yu Fuluo. He is now rushing back in a hurry..."
Damn it!
The other half of Ma Su's face also fell.
Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth and added: "My wife gave birth to a pair of baby boys, one of whom died half a month ago."
Ma Su's face turned completely dark.
But it's not over yet.
Zhang Xiu continued: "When the eldest son Ma Wen was commanding the engineering team to build a road, he accidentally fell off the cliff and broke one of his legs..."
"The fifth young master fell into the pool while playing in the back garden. Fortunately, he was rescued in time by the housekeeper, but he remained unconscious..."
"The second young master was fencing with someone and was accidentally stabbed in the chest. He bled a lot..."
"The third and fourth young masters have a strange disease, and the doctor is helpless..."
"Everyone is not going well, my wife is too sad and can't afford to fall ill..."
"..."
I'm crazy.
Is this a violation of heaven's rules?
Ma Di looked at Zhang Xiu in confusion: "There's no more bad news, right?"
"have!"
"There is news from the West County that the great wizard has been neglecting food and drink for some unknown reason recently and is becoming increasingly haggard..."
Ma Su slapped his forehead, speechless and choked.
After a while, he took out seven black pills and sent someone to Chengdu. Then Feng Feng Huo Huo mounted his horse and rushed out anxiously.
Go to West County to pick up the great wizard.
As for Huang Xi and Li Sheng, who were beyond their reach, they could only ask for their own blessings.
Kirby wouldn't even care if he could.
Ma Su is just an ordinary person, and there is no guarantee that everyone associated with him will not be harmed.
We can only do our best and obey fate.
"General, wait for me!" Zhang Xiu quickly chased after him, only to see that Ma Di had disappeared.
Zhang Xiu shook his head helplessly and said to himself: "So this is what the general said: Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his expression..."
"I learned."
…
Wuzhangyuan, the camp of the Shu army.
Zhuge Liang, who had just won a great victory, looked worried and melancholy!
Before the Northern Expedition, in order to prevent the Han army from repeating the same mistakes as the previous one, Zhuge Liang not only specially invited Liu Yan to accompany the army to supervise the army, but also sent Li Yan, the governor of grain and grass, out of the Xie Valley for military use.
The Shu Han army was safely stationed in Wuzhangyuan, waiting for the Wei army to attack.
Influenced by Ma Di, Zhuge Liang has now changed the old strategy of "attacking cities, plundering land, and seizing people" to a strategy of "mainly eliminating the effective strength of the Wei army".
The garrison at Wuzhangyuan was Zhuge Liang's decision after careful consideration.
Zhuge Liang set the main battlefield of the battle on the gentle slope to the west of Wuzhangyuan, where he deployed five generals and heavy troops: Wei Yan, Jiang Wei, Wang Ping, Gao Xiang, and Wu Ban.
The terrain of Wuzhangyuan is long and narrow from east to west, with Qinling Mountains to the south and Weishui River to the north. The terrain in the east is extremely narrow and high. Except for the west, the other three sides cannot use troops at all.
Zhuge Liang divided the Shu army into five and stationed them near Wuzhangyuan. There were very few troops on the east, south and north sides. The main force was stationed on the west, and the Chinese army was stationed in the center of the high ground.
When fighting on such a slope, the Wei army, which has the advantages of chariots and cavalry, will be weakened to the maximum extent, while the Shu army has a relative terrain advantage here.
But the decisive factor in whether a war starts or not is never whether it is suitable for fighting or whether it can be fought, but rather the willingness of the generals on both sides to fight.
There is no doubt that the Shu army's blatant garrison in the Wei territory was full of provocation, which made it difficult for the Wei army to remain calm no matter what.
But the Shu army's camp was stationed on the Wuzhangyuan high platform, which was more than ten feet high. Except for attacking from the gentle slope in the west, it was impossible for the Wei army to attack from other directions.
After Sima Yi arrived with his army, he was unable to deal with this terrain. Normally, he should station his troops at the west exit of Wuzhangyuan and keep an eye on every move of the Shu army.
However, Sima Yi stationed the Wei army in the east, with the Weishui River at his back, and also took care of defending the exit of Xiegu and Chang'an.
The armies of Shu and Wu did not meet directly.
The two armies were in a stalemate for a long time, and the general Wei Ping said: "The Shu army has come from afar. If our army does not fight, it will lose all its prestige. It is better to take action now, station a heavy army here, and send out surprise troops to attack behind."
, broken inclined grain road.”
Sima Yi thought over and over again and did not adopt this strategy. Instead, he dug a trench around the camp to defend himself and refused to go into battle easily.
Before he could determine Zhuge Liang's intentions, he did not dare to act rashly.
After a long time, all the generals of the Wei State lost their composure. Jia Xu and Wei Ping bluntly said that Sima Yi "feared Shu like a tiger and feared the bright light like a tiger" because they repeatedly asked for a battle but failed.
Sima Yi remained unmoved.
But with the defeat of Liangzhou, the news of Zhang He's death came, and all the generals asked for battle, Sima Yi suddenly became under great pressure.
Seeing that the Wei army had a strong willingness to fight, Sima Yi finally led his army to attack the Shu army in Wuzhangyuan in early September.
Just as Sima Yi expected, Zhuge Liang's defensive arrangements in the west and even on all sides were airtight and had no flaws.
The Wei army attacked fiercely for three days and suffered heavy casualties, but the Wuzhangyuan camp remained motionless.
After a major defeat, the situation took a turn for the worse.
The ruling and opposition parties in Wei were shocked.
However, as luck would have it, something happened inside Shuhan again.
Li Yan sent Ma Zhong and Cheng Fan to deliver a message asking Zhuge Liang to withdraw his troops and return to the Han Dynasty.
Because there is not enough food and grass.
Zhuge Liang was very melancholy about this incident.
Previously, in order to prevent logistical problems, Zhuge Liang specifically ordered Li Yan to supervise the food supply and told him to do it easily: "It may be done once every ten days, or once every half month, or once a month. Don't slack off."
Therefore, even if Zhuge Liang suspected that Li Yan was obstructing him, he could only defeat his master once again.
As soon as he returned to Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang knew that withdrawing his troops was not Liu Chan's intention, and immediately questioned Li Yan.
In the past two years, Shu Han has accumulated a lot of food, and there will basically be no shortage of food. Moreover, the road from central Sichuan to Hanzhong, and then out of Xiegu to Wuzhangyuan in Guanzhong has been built. Although the road is thousands of miles away, it is not difficult to travel.
.
So Zhuge Liang asked this question.
Li Yan hesitated and was speechless.
He used to be either a local official, the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, or an important minister of the country. He had no thought at all for such a small job as transporting grain.
Until recently, Li Yan suddenly discovered that no grain had been transported to Wuzhangyuan for more than a month, and the grain was even lying in the Guanzhong granary without being loaded on the truck. He suddenly panicked.
He had no choice but to report to Liu Chan: "The army is retreating in order to lure the thieves into fighting." At the same time, he sent someone to recall Zhuge Liang.
