The battle report was slammed on the table, and Wei Shou was furious.
This is the Jiange Tower. Ever since Wei Shou retreated from Mianzhu Pass, he has been arranging his meeting hall here. He is personally on the front line as an example, ready to fight the enemy at any time. But to his disappointment, Pei Zilie
Obviously they don't plan to attack, but the news coming from Cangxi Valley is always bad news.
Helou Ziqian's entire army was wiped out, and it was enough to lose his troops and humiliate the country. Now Wei Shou can't even contact the defenders in Bicangxi Valley. Although the enemy has not attacked, the enemy's scouts are extremely active and continue to intercept and kill any followers.
Jiange's scouts tried to go to Cangxi Valley, and according to several scouts who luckily escaped with their lives, such an interception was not just one time. There were too many ambushes on the road, especially when entering the mountainous area. The enemy's scouts seemed
everywhere.
But the most indispensable thing on this road is the mountains.
After the last batch of baggage teams came back with the news that Helou Ziqian's entire army was annihilated, Wei Shou has not received any other news related to the war in Cangxi Valley. The entire Cangxi Valley and even the entire Langzhong war situation seems to be in doubt.
It has been enveloped by Li Xingchen. Unless Wei Shou sends a large army to rescue, there is no way to make any contact with the Cangxi Valley defenders.
The surrounding generals did not dare to speak. Everyone knew very well that if it were not in this mountain, but in Guanzhong, the Central Plains, or any other place, Li Xingchen would not have known it with just this small force.
He has died so many times, but this is Bashu. The layered mountains and the Ba people active among them are undoubtedly Li Xinchen's biggest help.
Although the Northern Zhou army has a large number of troops, if these armies are concentrated together, once they are surrounded or trapped in a valley, they will undoubtedly be dead ends. No matter how many soldiers and horses they have, they will not have much effect. The previous
He Lou Ziqian is the best example.
Wei Shou paced back and forth on Guancheng. How could the entire Bashu war situation evolve from the mighty army advancing at the beginning to the current state of decay? Langzhong could not hold it, and Shu County was lost early. Now the key point of Bashu
All fell into the hands of Li Xingchen.
It is true that Jiange and other places are easy to defend and difficult to attack, but this is only if there are sufficient supplies of food, grass, and baggage. You must know that these things could have relied on Bashu, but now they can only be transported from Hanzhong through the plank road after countless hardships. After all,
There is not much land that can be used for reclamation near Jiange, which means that the number of defenders cannot be too large.
Therefore, Wei Shou is now worried not only about the battle situation in Cangxi Valley, but also about the future direction of the entire Bashu war situation.
In this battle, two generals, Wei Xiaokuan and Yuchi Jiong, fought side by side, but in the end they ended up with such a result. How can we not make people sigh?
Another battle report sent from the Central Plains was placed on Wei Shou's desk. Wang Gui from the Huaibei direction fought impressively, while Gao Xi, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi and others from the Xiangyang direction also fought impressively.
Xiao Mohe had to retreat to the south bank of Mianshui River and adopt a defensive posture.
But compared to these two battlefields, Bashu can only be described as a "failure".
Wei Shou doesn't want to care about how this will affect the game in the court. He is worried about the future of the Wei family. No matter what happens in the court or on the battlefield, the Wei family cannot fall, and Cangxi Valley must be opened up.
"General, let's send troops to Mianzhu Pass. At least we can make Pei Zilie restrain himself!" A deputy general couldn't help but said, "Obviously Pei Zilie's troops are not as powerful as ours, and there are many prisoners of war among them who have been trained, but now he is
If you show off your power outside, you should teach him a lesson no matter what!"
"Yes, General, we can't just endure it like this!"
Several generals echoed.
Wei Shou glanced at them and said coldly: "Have you all forgotten why we retreated from Mianzhu Pass?!"
The generals were all startled, and subconsciously looked at each other with solemn expressions.
There is still a rugged road from Mianzhu Pass to Jiange. Without sufficient support and supplies, attacking Mianzhu Pass is tantamount to seeking death, because it is easy to be counterattacked by the enemies of Shu County. This is why Wei Shou decisively attacked Mianzhu Pass at that time.
Abandoning Mianzhu Pass and retreating north, after all, once they are blocked by Pei Zilie, who is familiar with the terrain of Mianzhu Pass, it will be really difficult to escape.
At least now Wei Shoutun's Bingjian Pavilion can guard the flanks and entrance of Cangxi Valley, and it also prevents Li Xingchen from having any evil intentions towards the sword pavilion - anyone else would definitely not have the guts to attack the sword pavilion directly, but now everyone knows that as long as
What others dare not do, Li Xingchen will do it most likely.
"We should go to Cangxi Valley now, not Mianzhu Pass." Wei Shou said decisively, "Cangxi Valley is the real battlefield. Cao Xiaoda can retreat, but we can't. Send the order, and the forwards will reorganize first. The two
Set off in an hour, and all the mountains and forests around these road checkpoints will be cleared!"
The generals glanced at each other subconsciously. It was obvious that Cangxi Valley was where Li Xinchen chose for the decisive battle. Logically speaking, they should not take the initiative to go to Cangxi Valley to fight Li Xinchen. But now they have no other choice, at least Wei Shoubu
On the north side, Yuchi Jiong and Wei Xiaokuan were on the south side, and Li Xingchen was sandwiched in the middle. How could it be so easy to win?
"What?" Wei Shou raised his eyebrows.
"No!" the generals responded in a hurry.
——————————————-
A soft "pop" sound broke the strange tranquility in the camp.
Pei Zilie put down the brush in his hand, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. In front of him, a map near the Jiangge hung. Pei Zilie had looked at this map countless times in the past few days, but the stalemate in front of him still made him a little confused.
have no choice.
"General!" Xu Deyan stretched out his hand to lift the tent curtain and strode over with an excited look on his face, "Wei Shou has moved."
Pei Zilie suddenly stood up and chuckled: "This bastard finally showed his head."
To say what Pei Zilie is most worried about these days, it must be the war at Jiange, because only by containing Wei Shou can he effectively support Li Xingchen. However, although Wei Shou has no intention of sending troops to Cangxi Valley, he has no intention of sending troops to Cangxi Valley.
The idea of going out of the city to compete with Pei Zilie.
Wei Shou was just huddled in the city, while Pei Zilie could only stare outside the city. After all, Pei Zilie still had some idea of the strength of his troops. He was just a showpiece built by the soldiers from Shu County.
Those who can actually fight are Chen Zhishen's men and Pei Zilie's own men.
In addition, there was insufficient food, grass and baggage, but Pei Zilie actually did not have the capital to attack such a powerful pass as Jiange except for his bluff.
Of course, if Wei Shou is determined to go out of the city to fight, Pei Zilie will not lack the courage.
