Eight hundred and seventieth nine chapters kill Meridian Valley
Chapter 879: Fight out of Ziwu Valley
Faced with Jia Xu's question, Yuan Shu shook his head. He had full confidence in Ju Yi. Zhang Lu didn't have any high-ranking generals under his command, and Ju Yi was very skilled in martial arts. If he really sent people to attack,
It is impossible to say that he will have to fulfill his fame again.
"Since the lord trusts Ju Yi so much, we can just wait for the news from Mianyang. I believe that as long as Mianyang is broken, Zhang Lu will definitely panic. By then he will most likely surrender. Even if he doesn't surrender, he will give up the praise.
Central, retreat towards Nanzheng. As long as we can get out of this sloping valley, taking Hanzhong will be like searching for something."
Since Yuan Shu trusted Ju Yi so much to withstand the pressure, all he had to do was hold back Zhang Lu's army with praise.
"Um."
Yuan Shu camped quietly here, while Zhang Lu and Yan Pu were watching at the top of the city. They were a little confused when they saw that Yuan Shu only besieged but not attacked.
"Yan Pu, what is Yuan Shu's idea of not sending out troops to attack the city even though he is approaching the city?"
After a while, Zhang Lu asked Yan Pu directly.
Hearing Zhang Lu's question, Yan Pu also hesitated for a while. To be honest, he still couldn't figure out what Yuan Shu was thinking.
"My lord, no matter what Yuan Shu's plan is, as long as the Yangping Pass is not broken and Mianyang is not lost, unless his army has wings and can fly into Hanzhong, we will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai."
Although I don't know what Yuan Shu's intentions are now, as long as he does what he needs to do, it will be impossible for him to break through.
"Yes, but we have to be on guard. Send people to Mianyang and inform Zhang Wei to guard it tightly. Don't let Yuan Shu steal it. That's it."
Although Yan Pu said this and Zhang Lu agreed, the idea still needs to be decided.
"No, I will arrange for someone to notify General Zhang Wei right away."
Yan Pu nodded to Zhang Lu.
"Well, let's make arrangements."
Even if Yuan Shu did not attack, Baozhong City was still ready, and at the same time, he rode a fast horse directly out of Baozhong and ran towards Mianyang.
Although there are many crises in Baozhong and Yangpingguan in Hanzhong, there is calm and peace inside.
Taishi Ci and Ju Yi were two strange soldiers. One was eating dirt in the Ziwu Valley, and the other was eating grass in the jungle. But even so, they had no complaints, but Gezi was running wildly.
Zhang Wei sneered at the news from Zhang Lu. In his opinion, although Xun You sent troops every day, he did not dare to attack at all. Even if he was attacked by force, he was not afraid. If he wanted to break through the pass built on the mountain, he would not be able to break through it unless he had wings.
Can fly.
Time passed by like this, Wu Yi led an army of 50,000 people all the way, but he was still far away from entering Hanzhong from Bajun. The mountains in Yizhou were not only a nightmare for the enemy, but also a nightmare for his own support.
It is estimated that at his speed, it would still take more than ten days to reach Hanzhong.
"Wu Ban, you lead the army and march slowly. I will lead the army of 20,000 and march quickly to Hanzhong."
Since it was difficult for the army to march, he first led the vanguard to speed towards Hanzhong, and the rest, led by his brother Wu Ban, continued to advance towards Hanzhong.
"Nuo, help brother have a smooth journey."
Wu Yi wanted to lead his troops and leave first, but Wu Ban had nothing to say and could only clasp his fists and wish him a safe journey.
"Well, I'll leave then."
After saying this, Wu Yi accelerated towards Hanzhong with 20,000 troops as the vanguard, while Wu Ban also continued to advance towards Hanzhong with 30,000 troops behind him.
"General, the road ahead seems to be getting wider, and we seem to be out of the valley."
Soon news came from the soldiers in the front row that they seemed to have come out of Ziwu Valley.
"Yeah?"
After hearing the soldiers' words, Taishi Ci rode directly to the front row. Looking at the open terrain, Taishi Ci felt as if he was in another world.
After a month of running around, a month of suffering, this moment finally saw the light of day.
"Go back to the valley, rest for a day, and then prepare to tackle the problem."
There is a small pass outside Ziwu Valley, but it is still a few miles away, so Taishi Ci did not choose to attack immediately, but chose to return to the valley to rest. After all, all the soldiers and horses were exhausted after so many days of traveling.
Now that we have seen the light, we don’t care about waiting another day.
"promise."
After receiving Taishi Ci's order, the army immediately set up camp and began to rest and recuperate.
At dawn the next day, Taishi Ci's army left the camp directly, and then began to assemble the ladders for siege. This time Taishi Ci was well prepared, knowing that it was not easy to build equipment here, so he prepared these simple siege equipment.
It's enough, especially for things like ladders, which are enough to prepare several large vehicles.
After the ladders were prepared, the army marched directly towards the pass at the mouth of the valley carrying the ladders.
"what is that?"
A few soldiers were taking a nap on the city wall. Suddenly they saw the dust and smoke emerging from the Ziwu Valley, and they couldn't help but rub their eyes.
"Um?"
Hearing this sound, everyone started to look there.
"No, enemy, the enemy is coming. Beat the drum."
A man with good eyesight directly saw the soldiers and horses looming in the smoke, and screamed loudly at the people around him.
Hearing this sound, someone immediately ran to the war drum on the tower and beat it hard.
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
The continuous sound of war drums resounded throughout the pass, and when he heard the sound of the drums, the captain who was resting inside was stunned, threw down the slips beside him, and ran directly towards the city wall.
"Gather, gather."
While running, he shouted for the soldiers and horses to gather. When he climbed onto the city wall, Taishi Ci's soldiers and horses were clearly visible, appearing in front of the pass.
"hiss."
Seeing the enemies coming like a wave, the captain couldn't help but take a breath of air.
"Captain, what should I do?
Looking at the number, there are at least 20,000 to 30,000 people, but we only have a thousand people, so we can't stop them."
A village chief stared at the captain and asked.
"If we can't stop it, we must stop it. The whole army goes up to the city wall, and another person is sent to Chenggu immediately to report that the enemy is sending troops from Ziwu Valley. I can only do my best to delay time and let them prepare."
The captain glared at the commander next to him and sent someone directly to Chenggu to report the military situation.
Taishi Ci didn't care about this. Since he led his soldiers and horses to fight out, it couldn't be stopped by a small pass. Even if the trebuchet is not assembled now, it is not a problem. The people in front of him have to bulldoze it.
"Order the Huwei army to attack the city directly."
As soon as the military order was issued, the Huwei troops carried ladders and began to attack the pass.
"Archers prepare, release."
Facing the offensive of the mighty tiger army, the captain on the city wall directly ordered his soldiers and horses to defend with bows and arrows.
"Raise your shield and attack."
Looking at the sparse troops and horses on the pass, Taishi Ci did not think at all that these people could not stop him.
The Huwei army carried shields and ladders and directly attacked the city wall of the pass.
"Shoot them down."
This pass was very small, and there was no running water around it, so it did not have the conditions for a moat. When he saw the enemy's ladder frame coming up, the captain directly ordered the enemy to go down.
However, there were only a thousand soldiers and horses on the pass, and it was impossible to resist the attack of 20,000 powerful troops. They were killed on the city wall in a short time. Within half an hour, the pass was already in the hands of the powerful troops.
"General, should we leave our troops behind to guard the food route?"
After taking the pass, Captain Yuan Zhi came to Tai Shici. Now that they had left Ziwu Valley, they could attack Hanzhong County.
"The Ziwu Valley is too long and it is not suitable to transport food and grass from here. If we abandon this place, the whole army will attack Chenggu. After we capture Chenggu, we will not be short of food and grass."
Taishi Ci thought for a while, there was no need to hold on here, because it was impossible to open a grain road from Ziwu Valley to support him. What he had to do now was to attack Chenggu directly to the west. After capturing this place, their grain and grass could be replenished.
, and then you can directly attack Nanzheng.
"promise."
Yuan Zhi also nodded when he heard Tai Shici's words. Although they had rushed out of Ziwu Valley now, the test had just begun. After such a long time, their food and grass could not last long.
Ziwu Valley is more than 300 kilometers away. If grain and grass are transported from here, I am afraid that the grain and grass transported are not enough for the grain transport team to eat themselves. Their only way to survive now is to go all the way west, west, west,
After Chenggu is captured, there will be hope. If Chenggu cannot be captured, then all the 30,000 troops will be buried in Hanzhong County.
After taking the pass, Taishi Ci did not hesitate and rushed towards Chenggu with his troops.
