Chapter 813 Gods come and die, Buddhas fall to Buddhas
Chapter 813: Gods come and gods die, Buddhas come and Buddhas die
Zhuge Liang finally sent Zhao Yun to help Wei Yan, not to save Wei Yan, but to save the army.
Yes, this is Zhuge Liang's order. Even if Wei Yan is lost, he cannot lose his troops. He hates Wei Yan so much and wishes that after Wei Yan died, Zhao Yun could bring back those 10,000 elite cavalry.
However, before leaving, Liu Bei, Huang Zhong, Huo Jun and other generals took the opportunity to quietly tell Zhao Yun that if possible, they would try to bring Wei Yan and the army back.
And it needs to be resolved quickly.
Yes, their military rations can only last for ten days now.
Since yesterday, the troops transporting troops and supplies have become sparse - at a glance, you can see that the only remaining men and horses pulling carts are Liu Bei's own people.
If Liu Zhang said he would run out of food, then he would really run out of food.
Under such circumstances, Zhuge Liang gave Zhao Yun three days, a three-day round trip, in order to preserve his combat power. After three days, the army will have a showdown with Cao Jun on the Jinniu Ancient Road in front of Yangping Pass.
No regrets.
——
So, things have come to this.
What is our General Wei Wenchang, who was appointed by Zhuge Liang as our old enemy, doing?
——
The back section of Mamingge Road is also the middle section of Chencang Road.
If the distance was less than a hundred miles, Wei Yan would be able to lead his men to Xiabian, the capital of Wu.
Xiaben City is neither big nor small, just because of its geographical location: it happens to be on the northeastern part of Chencang Road, which is the only way to the Chencang Chang'an area in the pass.
Therefore, as long as it is a war involving Chencang Road, the ownership of Xiabian is the top priority.
According to this principle, Wei Yan's idea is actually not wrong at all.
Just like in another time and space, he came up with the idea of the Ziwu Valley Strategy in the middle and late Shu Han Dynasty when Zhuge Liang was in trouble during the Northern Expedition.
The military expedition is risky, but once it succeeds, the benefits that can be obtained will be surprisingly large.
As for the probability of success of the Ziwu Valley conspiracy, it is no longer possible to study it.
Because this section of the road was really not a road that the Shu army, who was beleaguered at the time, could walk on.
Thinking the same as Wei Yan, just a few months ago, Zhang Lu and Han Sui allied forces and sent troops out of Ziwu Valley, intending to catch Chang'an by surprise. If it weren't for Yi Xiaotian, Han Sui's plan or Liu Xie's plan would definitely be a failure.
Extremely exquisite.
Although Yi Xiaotian did not say it personally, in fact, the situation in Chang'an at that time was as long as he made even one mistake - for example, Zhao Fan did not return aid, for example, Ma Chao did not miss his old friendship and directly helped Han Sui to counterattack Chang'an, for example, Yi Xiaotian
Heaven failed to save Ma Teng. As long as he made one mistake, Cao Cao's northwest situation would be completely lost.
At that time, Cao Cao was actually facing a desperate situation within a desperate situation.
This is the role of conspiracy.
So back to the present.
Wei Yan crossed Zoumaling and even evaded Cao's army at Guangshi. There was absolutely no problem with the strategy of directly attacking Xiabian.
But the key is that Wei Yan does not have an accurate understanding of the overall situation.
The so-called overall view means to have eyes and ears to listen to all directions.
Accurately determine how local changes will affect the overall battle situation.
The overall situation will affect the direction of the local war situation.
Wei Yan didn't have an overall view, so he naturally wouldn't have thought that the entire existence of Xia Bian was a bait thrown by Jiang Wan and Ma Chao and Zhang He.
It can be admitted that this was originally a strange plan for Cao Jun.
It's just... they now have someone who can protect them.
This was the last preparation Yi Xiaotian made before leaving Chang'an.
——
The wind whistled by his ears, and Wei Yan's speed did not slow down at all in the night.
"The night is good for marching."
This is Wei Yan’s unique understanding.
From this point of view alone, it is really difficult for you to say that there is something wrong with Wei Yan's brain.
In order to minimize the risk, Wei Yan led his army through the mountains and forests during the day and ran wildly along the valley roads at night.
In this way, the speed is at least 200 miles a day and a night.
In such a steep valley, it is definitely not slow.
"Don't fall behind, speed up! Before dawn, we rush to Xiabian. After a short adjustment, we will first ascend the camp and follow me to break the city in one fell swoop!"
Wei Yan only had murderous intent in his eyes.
His only idea now is to defeat Xiabian - as long as he defeats Xiabian, he can regain his prestige in the army, he can turn the entire war situation around on his own, and he can also get a chance to be on an equal footing with Zhuge Liang, without having to suffer the consequences of Zhuge Liang.
’s cold eyes.
The soldiers around him didn't say a word. Maybe it was because Wei Yan was too courageous at the moment, and they unexpectedly became angry with the same enemy.
Yes, they are the heroes if they break the argument.
All previous fears about Wei Yan disappeared.
They were all overwhelmed by the easy success.
Under such momentum, the army marched particularly quickly.
"Hmph... If Ma Chao dares to go to the frontal battlefield, he means he doesn't take Wei Yan seriously!"
Wei Yan was motivating himself like this, but little did he know that someone had already clearly understood his heart.
——
When the edge of the night ushered in the first ray of light, across the Chencang Road, the ever majestic and cold Xiaben Castle appeared in Wei Yan's eyes.
Unspeakable excitement arose in Wei Yan's chest. With a wave of his hand, the army stopped on the spot and quickly replenished their water and strength to prepare for their final attack on the city.
Now, everyone's eyes are full of excitement.
No one said anything because it would make noise and alert people who shouldn't be alerted.
When the sun's figure faintly emerged from the distant peaks, Shimoben Castle was still shrouded in the shadow of the mountains.
And this became the opportunity for Wei Yan to sound the clarion call for attack.
Wei Yan, who was silent, was the first to stand up on his horse. He raised his right arm high, and under everyone's gaze, he shook it hard and threw it down into the void.
Immediately afterwards, with the sound of horse hoofbeats, Wei Yan and his cavalry turned into a long dragon in the dark and desolate mountain shadows, rushing down the mountain like a movie, charging towards Xiabian.
At this moment, time seemed to have stood still.
It seems that if this continues, Xiabian City will really be captured by Wei Yan in one fell swoop.
How could Shimoben Castle, which had no response, hold on under the attack of more than ten thousand elite soldiers and horses?
unless…
Just at this time.
On the wall of Shimoben Castle, which had fallen into deathly silence, a slender but particularly tough arm was raised high.
He raised not only his hands, but also a long bow and a powerful crossbow in his hands.
Immediately afterwards, there were hundreds of responses, as if everything had been arranged.
From the top of the city wall, dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of hands holding strange and powerful crossbows were raised high.
The wind also stopped.
The dragon also trembled.
In front of the Shenjian camp, gods come and die, and Buddhas die.
"Fire arrows!!"
Ma Dai's voice is clear and powerful.
When the sound reached the ears of Wei Yan, who was immersed in charging, a cavalryman who was charging forward was shot into a hedgehog in an instant.
