Shu Chen

Chapter 387

"You have no guts! You have several times the number of people, but you can't fight against the army, and you will be cowardly when you attack the city with few casualties!"

With a fist slamming on the crenel of the city wall, Liu Yin, the guard of Shuyin City Fortress, could not help but express his indignation when he saw Wei Jun pull back the siege equipment and turn into a camp again.

It sounds ridiculous.

Wouldn't it be a good thing that the enemy no longer attacked the city that had been trapped for half a year?

Why is the guard not happy but angry!

But if you know Liu Yin's position since he became an official, you will know why he is like this.

Without him, seeking military merit will not be heard.

He has joined the army since the beginning of the prime minister's rebellion against Nanzhong, and he has hardly had the opportunity to kill the enemy in front of the battle. The siege continued after several times of painless temptations and assaults.

How could he not be inexplicably indignant?

Yes, as Zheng Pu said, there is no need for rescue in the city of Shuyin.

Liu Yin thought to himself that as long as the food and fodder were not exhausted, no matter how many troops against Wei Wei came to attack, the fortress would never have a chance of being breached.

It's not that he is arrogant.

But this fortress is very small, and the area under attack is also very small. Three thousand soldiers are enough to take turns to defeat the enemy day and night.

And there is no fear of civil uprisings or collapse of soldiers' morale in the city.

When Zhang Bao recruited the Piaoxi army guarding the fortress into an army, he was the deputy governor of the army!In the past ten years of being together day and night, sleeping and eating together, he has already won the hearts of soldiers, and it can be said that all his subordinates are willing to die.

Under such circumstances, why didn't he hope that he could become the name of the "Iron Wall" after the late Huo Jun?

"The general made a mistake! Twenty dollars per person!"

With a cheer, a hand stretched out in front of Liu Yin.

Looking sideways, it was Sima from the Fen Ying grinning happily, revealing jagged yellow teeth.

This is a bet between Liu Yin and the second battalion, Qu and Xi.

If the Wei army attacked the city continuously for three months, the officers and men of the Second Battalion of Yuyu would have to help the Liu family's fields and pastures in Longyou for one day after the war;

Obviously, Liu Yin lost the bet.

But he didn't feel depressed at all in his heart, instead he was secretly happy.

Because the military law of the Han Dynasty prohibits gambling, he still violated it knowingly, but in order to ease the emotions of the soldiers in the army.

After all, the city had been trapped for half a year, and only in the beginning of spring, Zhao Guangbu signaled that the imperial court would come to rescue him with a blare outside the city. He was worried that the soldiers would become irritable or depressed when they were isolated and helpless for a long time, which would lead to bad things. things happen.

Such as mutiny, trance and so on.

That's why he found a reason to let the soldiers have something to look forward to, and not to worry about being trapped all day long.

As for why you chose to violate the military law?
The people of the two tribes of Pixiu all come from Fuling County, where there is little arable land and few livestock. Is there anything they look forward to more than intentionally losing money!

The effect is quite obvious.

At least after the Sima of the Pi Ying spoke, not only the Sima of the Ying Ying came to boo, but the rest of the soldiers who were also on the city wall cheered instantly, as if they had just experienced a great victory.

In other words, the morale of the army in the city is very stable and the morale is not fading.

"Go! Go! Go!"

Slapping off the hand in front of him, Liu Yin deliberately cursed with a dark face, "I don't have any money right now! After I return from the war, it will be cashed in. Could it be that my family still lacks this little money? "

As soon as these words fell, there was another burst of laughter on the city wall.

The Liu family in Chengdu is the home of the giants, and the places in Bashu can be ranked among the best. A mere tens of thousands of dollars is really not worth mentioning.

Moreover, Liu Yin had always been forthright, and whenever he came back to work after a rest, he would always bring some wine and meat from his own ranch to have a feast with the crowd.

On the contrary, it seems to be the essence of food.

The Sima of the Yingying laughed, and first clapped his palms to keep everyone from making noise, and then invited him with words, "General, do you dare to make another gamble? How about seeing when Ni Wei will come to attack the city again?"

"Why don't you dare?"

Liu Yin said loudly, "If Ni Wei doesn't come to attack the city within three months, I will give each of you another [-] yuan!"

"what!"

The Sima of that camp was overjoyed for a moment, and immediately blurted out, "The general is generous!"

Immediately, he turned his head and waved his fists excitedly at the other soldiers, "After three months, I'll all get [-] yuan!"

Needless to say, there was another burst of cheers above the city.

Even Liu Yin couldn't hold back her black face and smiled.

Because in the next three months, he didn't need to worry about the morale of the army.

May I ask, Wei Jun tried to attack several times after being sleepy for half a year, how could he attack the city again three months later?

He just smiled and felt a little disappointed.

If Ni Wei didn't come to attack the city, where would his military exploits come from?
Ugh.
sad husband!Mr. Feng Tangyi, I am not at the right time!
Coincidentally, Xu Zhi, who was in the camp of the Han army in Laowei County, also felt melancholy that it was difficult to obtain military achievements.

Before Hexi had yet to increase his troops again, he had privately begged Zheng Pu to serve as the front of the army.

At that time, Zheng Pu did not comment because everything was still undecided; now, with the approval of the prime minister, Zheng Pu supervised the army to advance, and he got what he wanted, but he did not have the opportunity to make military exploits.

Gain's Han army did not intend to fight against Wei Wei this time.

Either Zheng Pu was timid to fight, or he couldn't bear to see the soldiers die again.

Instead, the original 10,000-strong Han army, with a total of [-] taels of cavalry from Hema Dai and Jiang Wei, only had [-] infantry to come to the camp in Naowei County.
Correct!
The so-called increase of troops in Hexi and the sword pointing to the south of Helan Mountain, only Xu Zhi and Fu Qian are bluffing.

While Liao Hua and Yan Yu took advantage of Zheng Pu to divert the attention of the Rebel Wei Qinlang, they had already walked along Wuting Nishui River Valley to Wushao Ridge, and quietly crossed the barren valley to join forces with Wei Yan.

Even the [-] heavy infantry who had been subordinate to Zheng Pu since the formation of the army, all rushed there under the leadership of Liu Lin.

With only [-] infantry and [-] cavalry, facing the Wei Guohuai tribe with more than [-] troops and the Qin Lang tribe with more than [-] cavalry, Xu Zhi knew without asking that Zheng Pu planned to fall along the Quwu Mountain Range. Can't hold out in the camp.

He knew even more that Wei Guohuai's army leader who didn't know the truth came, and he didn't dare to attack the camp easily.

Because the camps of Ma Dai and Jiang Wei are still at the east end of Wushaoling.

At least, the Wei army did not dare to attack Zheng Pu's camp at the risk of being attacked by the cavalry without completely suppressing the cavalry of the Han army.

Moreover, from Naowei County to Wushaoling, there are continuous sand dunes, without any mountain ridges and gullies as obstacles.

It is most conducive to the freedom of cavalry.

How can the Rebel Wei and Qin Lang Department stop Ma Dai and Jiang Wei from riding freely?

If he could have such ability, he would have broken into Wuwei County and swept the Hexi Corridor long ago!

hehe~~
Therefore, Xu Zhi, who knew that the battle of Laiwei would fall into a confrontation, could only feel that it was difficult to get ready for battle.

Because he dare not say anything.

This is the prime minister's decision,
In addition to approving Zheng Pu's dispatch of troops, the prime minister also made some adjustments to the strategy of dispatching troops this time.
