Not long after, Wu Han led his troops to Nan'an and met with Zang Gong.
With the arrival of Wu Han, the panic-stricken Han army suddenly stabilized.
The difference between the Southern Expedition Army and the Western Expedition Army is that after Lai She died, no one could replace him and became the new commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition Army. After Cen Peng died, Wu Han quickly took over the entire army, including the Southern Expedition Army.
Inside.
The generals of Zang Palace welcomed Wu Han into Nan'an City like stars holding the moon. The war was about to begin, but the number of people in Nan'an City did not decrease. On the contrary, both sides of the street were filled with people who had escaped from the disaster.
Seeing Wu Han's eyes glancing to both sides of the street from time to time, Zang Gong introduced: "Da Sima, these common people followed our army and retreated to Nan'an."
Wu Han didn't talk nonsense and asked directly: "What do they eat?"
Zang Gong said: "Currently, rations are distributed from the army..."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Han said: "This is Jun Ran's idea!"
Zang Gong looked at Wu Han and nodded silently.
In Wu Han's opinion, what Cen Peng did was a woman's kindness. Now it was the most critical moment of the War to Ping Shu. Supporting so many people would put a huge burden on the entire army, wouldn't it?
He asked: "What are your plans next?"
"This... I'll leave it up to Grand Sima to make a decision!" Zang Gong leaned forward and said.
Wu Han said categorically: "If there is enough food and grass in the army, we can provide some relief. If, because of the relief to the people, our soldiers are stretched thin and starved of food, then I will take the food from whoever gives it away."
Brain!”
Zang Gong shrank his neck and felt a chill on the back of his neck.
He hurriedly said: "Da Sima, there is a lot of food stored in Nan'an. When our army captured Nan'an, all the food stored here was seized by our army. Now our army has enough food and grass..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Han interrupted again: "Okay, you, Jun Weng, will continue to be responsible for the military rations. I still say the same thing. We can provide military rations to help the people, but we must not let our own brothers
It's up to you how to control your hunger."
"Hey!" Zang Gong bowed and responded.
Arriving at the Han army's camp in the city and entering the central military tent, Wu Han and the generals took their seats one after another. Wu Han looked at Zang Gong and said, "Your Majesty, tell me about the situation here in Nan'an."
"Yes! Da Sima!" Zang Gong stood up and talked about his side's confrontation with the Shu army in Nan'an.
Currently, 100,000 Shu troops led by Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke are stationed in Yufujin. Yufujin is originally one of the ferries of Nan'an, and is very close to Nan'an, only ten miles away.
However, the Shu army stationed in Yufujin was at peace and did not take the initiative to attack Nan'an during this period. The officers and soldiers of the two armies were close at hand, but they were at peace with each other.
Liu Xin then said: "When the Shu army first arrived in Nan'an, they attacked the city for three consecutive days and suffered a lot of casualties. Since then, the Shu army has not attacked the city again. I guess the Shu army is also afraid of being beaten!"
Zang Gong said seriously: "Don't be careless, our army still needs to be careful!"
The generals nodded in agreement, and Wu Han said, "No need!"
"Ah?" Everyone looked at Wu Han in surprise.
Wu Han said: "To completely annihilate the enemy is the best defense." As he spoke, Wu Han stood up and turned around. On the tent behind him, there was a simple map of Nan'an and Yufujin hanging.
He clasped his hands behind his back, raised his eyes and looked for a while, then said: "Our army will attack Yufujin in three days!"
The generals in Zang Palace stood up involuntarily and looked at Wu Han in shock.
Wu Han said: "Liu Shang!" "The general is here!" "You lead our navy to attack Yufujin by water." "The general obeys the order!"
"Your Majesty!" "The general is here!" "You lead 30,000 troops and attack Yufujin from land!" "The general obeys your order!"
"Liu Xin!" "The general is here!" "You lead 10,000 troops, all of whom are good at water. They will go around to the upper reaches of Yufujin and lay down pillars for me overnight." "The general will obey my order!"
"The remaining 10,000 soldiers will stay in Nan'an to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of them!" "Here!"
Wu Han obviously came well prepared and knew the battle plan well. He successively ordered the soldiers to attack Yufujin to be divided into three groups, one to attack by water, one to attack on land, and one to go upstream to lay down the pillars.
, this is obviously cutting off the enemy's retreat.
Looking at Wu Han's battle plan, he had made up his mind and did not want to give the Shu army a way to survive. Before the battle started, he wanted to cut off the Shu army's retreat. Of course, this was also the high degree of confidence shown by a general.
Wu Han's self-confidence immediately boosted the morale of the entire army. People swept away the sadness caused by Cen Peng's assassination in recent days, and the morale of the entire army was high.
The next day, Zang Gong and Liu Xin took the lead and led 40,000 Han troops straight to Yufujin. When they arrived at Yufujin, Zang Gong's troops set up camp while Liu Xin's troops continued northward and marched upstream of Yufujin.
When they heard that the Han army was taking the initiative to attack, both Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke were shocked. Although there were only 30,000 Han troops stationed outside Yufujin, and Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke had an army of 100,000, they did not dare to
Go into battle rashly.
The two of them also heard that Wu Han led his troops to Nan'an. Who was Wu Han? He was the Grand Sima of the Luoyang court and the God of War in the Han army. When Wu Han arrived in Nan'an, both Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke were wary.
, dare not go into battle easily.
Zang Gong stayed still, and when Liu Xin's troops arrived at the upper reaches of Yufujin, they cut down trees on the spot, made pillars, and nailed them into the river.
Nailing the Cuanzhu in the river can not only prevent the Yufujin Shu army from retreating, but also prevent the upstream Shu army from reinforcing Yufujin. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
After Liu Xin's troops set up the Cuanzhu, the Han army led by Wu Han also officially sounded the clarion call to attack.
The navy led by Liu Shang was the first to attack. Liu Shang's navy left Nan'an, went upstream, and headed straight for Yufujin.
Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke were both startled when they heard the news that Han navy sailors were attacking in large numbers. Gongsun Yong immediately found Wei Ke and asked in a trembling voice: "We are coming! Wu Han led his troops to attack, this..."
What should I do?"
Gongsun Yong has no ability. Among the Shu army, the person who really gives orders is actually Wei Ke. Wei Ke frowned and said quietly: "The enemy is going to fight to the death with our army!"
"What General Wei said...how do you say this?"
"The purpose of Liu Xin's arrangement of Cuanzhu in the upper reaches of Yufujin is to cut off our army's retreat. This is to force our army to sink into the water and fight to the death with the Han army!"
"He...how dare they?" Gongsun Yong turned pale and said anxiously: "Even...even if Wu Han arrived in Nan'an, he only brought 30,000 troops and horses, and the Han army together only had 80,000 troops.
Our army, our army has one hundred thousand soldiers!"
With 80,000 people, to fight against 100,000 people, but also to force 100,000 people to burn everything, who gave Wu Han such confidence and courage?
Wei Ke took a deep look at Gongsun Yong and said meaningfully: "The enemy commander is Wu Ziyan of Wu Han!"
In Wei Ke's mind, Wu Han's combat ability was definitely superior to that of Cen Peng.
Cen Peng would sometimes talk about kindness and justice when dealing with his enemies, but Wu Han was different. He was a ruthless master who would kill everyone. In terms of fighting style, Wu Han was definitely sharper and more sturdy than Cen Peng.
Wei Ke took a deep breath and said: "Wu Han did not give our army a way to retreat, and it has already reached the door of their house. We want to avoid it."
There is no way to avoid it, we can only fight him to the death!"
As he spoke, he stood up and shouted: "All the soldiers in the army, I am here to fight!"
There were 100,000 Shu troops under Gongsun Yong and Wei Ke, but among these 100,000 Shu troops, there were not many naval troops. They came to Nan'an not to fight a water war with the Han army, but to attack the city.
Now Liu Shang leads 30,000 naval troops to attack, and the Shu army can only mobilize 10,000 naval troops.
Wei Ke's tactic was to use his own navy of more than 10,000 to temporarily hold off Liu Shang's troops, while he and Gongsun Yong led the main force to directly attack Zang Gong's troops.
As long as his navy can hold off Liu Shang's troops for an hour or two, Wei Ke is confident that he can defeat Zang Gong's troops on the frontal battlefield.
After all, Zang Gong's troops only have 30,000 men. Our main army has more than 80,000 troops, three times the number of the enemy. How can we lose?
Under Wei Ke's formation, more than 10,000 Shu army sailors left Yufujin Ferry, formed a formation on the river, and assumed a defensive posture to resist Liu Shang's army.
At the same time, Wei Ke and Gongsun Yong led the main force of the Shu army out of Yufujin and headed straight for the Zanggong army camp.
In the camp of Zang Gong's army, not only Zang Gong was there, but Wu Han was also there.
Facing the menacing main force of the Shu army, there were only 30,000 Han soldiers. If they said they were not afraid, it would be a lie. However, with Wu Han around, although the soldiers were nervous, their morale was not disturbed.
As an excellent commander, the most basic characteristic he possesses is that no matter what kind of difficulties he faces at any time, he can play the role of calming the sea in the army.
Wu Han was here, and when facing a strong enemy, the Han soldiers were not nervous, and Wu Han was even more relaxed.
He ordered: "Jun Weng, you lead 10,000 soldiers as the left wing and go to the left camp. When the enemy army breaks the camp, you will lead the left wing soldiers to break out of the camp and flank the enemy's central army!"
"I will obey your orders!"
"Yang Xi, you lead 10,000 soldiers as the right wing and go to the right camp. When the enemy army breaks the camp, you lead the soldiers on the right wing to break out of the camp and flank the enemy's central army!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Zang Gong and Yang Xi both accepted the order, and then they looked at each other subconsciously, looked at Wu Han together, and whispered: "Da Sima, we have taken away 20,000 soldiers, and there is only one left in the camp..."
Thousands of soldiers!"
"Ten thousand soldiers are enough to resist the Shu thieves!" Wu Han said with a relaxed look.
"Da Sima..."
"Okay, no need to say more, just follow your orders!" Wu Han waved his hand to General Zang Gong and Yang Xi.
Let us say that the main force of the Shu army led by Wei Ke and Gongsun Yong launched a fierce attack on the Han army camp. The only Han army that resisted the main force of the Shu army was the ten thousand Han soldiers led by Wu Han himself.
The soldiers of the Han army relied on the walls of the camp to attack the attacking Shu army head-on.
The Shu army attacked like a wave, but was repelled time and time again by the Han army.
Seeing the strong resistance of the defending Han army, the attacking Shu army in front were frightened and retreated one after another. When Wei Ke saw this, he became furious and ordered to replace the former army general and continue to storm the Han camp.
In the second round of attack, the Shu army's offensive became more fierce. At this time, the 10,000 Han troops guarding the camp began to be unable to support themselves.
Seeing that his own soldiers were gradually depleted, Wu Han was very straightforward and immediately ordered that all his troops retreat and retreat to the interior of the camp.
As soon as the Han army withdrew, countless Shu troops immediately attacked the village wall, and then jumped from the village wall into the camp. As a large number of Shu troops invaded the camp, Wu Han ordered the entire army to fire arrows. The Han army fired
These are not ordinary arrows, but rockets.
It turned out that when the Han army evacuated the wall, it had been sprinkled with kerosene. The rockets fell on the kerosene, causing fire snakes to jump around. In an instant, the entire wall turned into
