Feng Zhou and the other two people were galloping all the way. Although they encountered many Wei army scouts, scouts, and defeated troops along the way, how could Feng Zhou and the others care? So they returned to the Han army camp when it was getting dark.
Zhao Yun, Wu Ban, Huang Quan and others heard that His Majesty had returned to camp and hurried over to greet him.
"Your Majesty went out early this morning, why did you come back so late?"
Zhao Yun asked.
He was an important minister of the late emperor, and had always had a good relationship with Feng Zhou. He also had a friendship that rescued each other twice when they were young, so he spoke relatively easily.
"The distance is so long that it will inevitably take a long time to get back and forth." Feng Zhou smiled and said in a very calm tone.
He waved his hand for everyone to sit down and said with a smile: "The Wei army is as afraid of me as a tiger. If our army attacks head-on tomorrow, we will be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."
"What? Your Majesty has already been in contact with the Wei army?"
Huang Quan was shocked and asked quickly.
Feng Zhou chuckled and said nothing.
Wu Tong on the side bowed his hands and saluted: "I would like to inform you generals that your Majesty took us to observe the Wei camp, and was discovered by the Wei people. Sima Yi sent his eldest son Sima Shi with an army of 5,000 to besiege your Majesty. As a result, your Majesty killed seven Jue Ding. At this moment,
Then he led us and defeated the Wei army, captured Sima Shi alive, took him outside the gate of the Wei camp, and killed him with a sword in front of Sima Yi. Tens of thousands of Wei army officers and soldiers were all frightened, and no one dared to leave the camp.
Fighting. Your Majesty’s power has already frightened powerful enemies.”
After Wu Tong finished speaking, he untied the baggage and revealed Master Sima's head.
After hearing what Wu Tong said, Zhao Yun, Wu Ban, Huang Quan and others didn't believe it at first. But when they saw your Sima Shi's head, their expressions changed drastically, and they all looked incredulous.
I can't believe it!
Attacking 5,000 people with three people, not only killed them and defeated them, but also captured the general Sima Shi alive?
That's all. With His Majesty's peerless force, it's not difficult to do this.
However, they could still force the Wei army into the gate and kill his eldest son in front of Sima Yi. The Wei army, from Sima Yi to the lower ranks, were all frightened and no one dared to fight.
This was simply too shocking to hear, and everyone listened to it as if they were hearing a myth.
But Master Sima's head is here, and this cannot be faked.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun and others looked at each other, bowed their hands in salute, and shouted: "Your Majesty is majestic, and I am full of admiration for you."
Feng Zhou laughed loudly, walked down and helped Zhao Yun, Wu Ban and Huang Quan up one by one, and said with a smile: "All of you, dear friends, are important ministers of the Han Dynasty, so there is no need to be so polite."
He walked back and forth in the imperial camp and said: "Now the Wei army is afraid of me. Even though Sima Yi is a great leader in commanding the army and as capable as Sun Wu, he does not dare to fight with me. Our army is intimidating the Wei camp with the strength of the array. The enemy must have no intention."
Set up camp, and if they dare to retreat, I will pursue them. If we can defeat the main force of the Wei army in one battle, that is of course the best. If not, we must repel the Wei army and occupy Gucheng."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After everyone retreated, Zhao Yunfu came back, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say that feels like a bone stuck in my throat. I won't be able to spit it out."
Feng Zhou said: "General Wei saved me in times of crisis twice. Although he and the late emperor are not brothers, they are brothers. They can be called my fourth uncles. It doesn't matter if you have anything to say."
Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty is the king of ten thousand chariots and is responsible for the country and the country. How can you imitate the generals in the army and rush to the battlefield every battle? For the sake of the world and the country, I ask your Majesty to take care of yourself and not fall into the battle easily.
To avoid something unspeakable happening.”
Feng Zhou's heart was shocked, and he felt a sense of warmth, and said: "Uncle Yun is as kind as a mountain to me. He persuades me with righteous words, and I agree."
But I thought in my heart: "I have killed all the martial arts masters in the world. The remaining opponents are just strategists and brave warriors on the battlefield. They are no longer a concern. It doesn't matter whether I take action or not."
Zhao Yun was deeply relieved when he heard that the emperor had agreed, so he nodded and left.zhetiand
…
Wei army camp.
Sima Yi woke up soon.
He was only fifty-one years old and in good health. He vomited blood outside the camp, but it was just because he was temporarily angry because his eldest son was killed.
After he woke up, he first summoned the defeated troops who had returned to the camp. After making detailed inquiries, he immediately held a military meeting.
"The Lord of Shu, Liu Chan, has unparalleled military skills. I heard that the army under his command is also a powerful force in the world. If our army wants to fight head-on, we are afraid that it will not be able to fight. Now the Shu army is coming with force. The Lord of Shu has advanced to the gate and killed my eldest son to show off his power.
We are unable to defeat them, so now we can only retreat to Luoyang, rely on the fortified city, and deal with the Shu army."
Many generals thought that Sima Yi died of their eldest son, and in anger, they would take the lead in the battle. However, they did not expect that Sima Yi was very sophisticated. Knowing that his combat effectiveness was not as good as before, he immediately made plans to retreat without any delay. He was indeed a man who knew his troops well.
people.
Immediately, everyone bowed their hands and saluted, and agreed in unison.
Sima Yi retreated as soon as he said so. Since he had made the decision to retreat, he immediately ordered the army to take action and arranged the retreat route for all the troops. He personally led several tiger generals and three thousand soldiers to the rear.
As for Gucheng, Sima Yi gave up without hesitation. He informed the guard to withdraw from Gucheng at night and return to Luoyang overnight.
This Sima Yi is indeed a great man in the world. Although it was late at night, he arranged the withdrawal of troops in an orderly manner and completed it overnight.
…
Early in the morning, at the Han army's camp, a messenger rushed into the Chinese army's tent and reported to Feng Zhou: "Report... Your Majesty, the Wei army's camp was suddenly empty. Tan Ma continued his eastward patrol and found that Sima Yi personally led the army to retreat. The army moved towards
Go east!"
"Sima Yi personally escorted the Wei army to the east?" Feng Zhou was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Yan's army also sent a messenger to report: "The white flag was raised in Gucheng. Our army entered carefully and found that the Wei army had withdrawn, leaving only the local people. They were afraid of our army, so they raised the white flag and surrendered."
"Check again, explore again!" Feng Zhou ordered.
After the messengers left, Feng Zhou convened a meeting with the generals. After reporting the military situation, Zhao Yun, Wu Ban, Huang Quan and others were all stunned.
"What's going on? Why did Sima Yi suddenly withdraw his troops?" Wu Ban was the most steady, and a look of confusion suddenly appeared on his face.
Huang Quan also had a look of astonishment on his face: "They went east? There is only Luoyang to the east. Did they retreat without a fight?"
Feng Zhou smiled slightly: "Jiang Wei, you send three thousand troops to approach the Wei army camp. No matter what Sima Yi's plan is, first level his camp. Pay attention to any traps in this camp."
"promise!"
An hour later, Jiang Wei sent a messenger back to report to Feng Zhou: "Your Majesty, there is no one in the camp. We checked carefully and found no tunnels, kerosene or the like."
Feng Zhou ordered: "Send two thousand soldiers and horses to demolish his camp."
"promise!"
Feng Zhou looked at everyone: "The Wei army retreated without a fight. Why do you think this is?"
Zhao Yun stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty defeated the Wei army's five thousand cavalry yesterday, advanced to the Wei army's camp, and beheaded Sima's division at the gate. I think the Wei army was already frightened, and Sima Yi knew he was outmatched, so he led his army back to Luoyang and relied on the strong city to defend.
"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads.
Although Sima Yi is indeed a man with a strong will and a godlike military skills, His Majesty's battle yesterday has completely defeated his psychological defense, so the Wei general made a decisive decision and led his army back to Luoyang.
This is very consistent with the facts and the circumstances of both parties.
"If I want to rely on a fortified city to fight, I want to see if Luoyang City has that capability!"
Feng Zhou laughed, stood up, and said, "Generals, listen to your orders!"
