Shu Chen

Chapter 488
Hearing Zheng Pu's question, Wang Ping got up abruptly, cupped his hands and said with emotion, "If, as the general said, the place where our army camped has good land to rely on and sufficient food and supplies, don't say that against Wei, thousands of people attack, even if the enemy Come ten times with me, and our troops will be able to defend the camp without losing it! The general asked me how long I can defend, and I dare to swear that within half a year, the camp will never be lost!"

"nice!"

He also asked Zheng Pu to clap his hands and praise, "Zijun is so heroic, it makes me worry-free!"

After speaking, raise the wine cup and invite a cup to strengthen his words.

Then he talked about something else, and he went back to the other camp to rest first on the grounds that he was tired from the journey.

But Jufu and Wang Ping got up to see each other off, and after watching Zheng Pu's figure disappear into the twilight outside the military tent, Goufu curled his lips and said, "Zijun, after this battle, I need my family to send me off." Come to two jars of sake. Before Zijun returned to the camp, I made a bet for you and Zijin, claiming that I could stick to one year without any worries! Unexpectedly, you dared to say it for half a year, alas~~"

Uh.
Immediately, Wang Ping was dumbfounded.

Not to mention helping him to gamble, it is self-assessment, and if you lose, you will have to blame yourself.It's just that there is no ban on joking in the army, so he can't be arrogant in front of Zheng Pu, who has made great military achievements~
"It's getting late at night, I'm going back to patrol the camp."

Therefore, he ignored the sentence, turned around and threw down a sentence, and went straight back to his camp.

Dan Ju rushed up to him with a stride, and asked with a smile, "Hey, let me tell you, Zijun doesn't want to know why the general asked you and brother Xiuran to guard the Jingshui River Valley? It's just two jars of sake brewed by the people. , Zijun’s family has no less than twenty altars, and it’s not that they can’t afford it, so why be stingy!”

It was prepared for my eldest son's wedding banquet!

Wang Ping, who was not from a high family background, said angrily in his heart, squinted at Gou Fu and said, "Military dispatch, if the general lets me know, I will know. If you don't let me know, why should I tell Xiaoxing."

After finishing speaking, he pulled away the sentence support with his hand, and continued to walk away.

However, he soon stopped.

Because Ju Fu sighed quietly behind him, "It's in vain that I raised my son Jun's eldest son, Yu Zijin, but I didn't want to. If I want to ask for two altars of sake as a thank you ceremony, I can't do it, alas."

"You give my son to the general?"

As the future of Zi Wang Xun was at stake, Wang Ping finally stopped being indifferent and turned around to ask questions in surprise.

Jufu smiled openly, "Hey, yes!"

It turned out that since all the Han army units entered Guanzhong at the beginning of the year, the defense of the counties and counties in Longyou was slightly insufficient. Therefore, Fei Yi, who is now in charge of Longyou, asked Zheng Pu in private if there was anyone who could be added to the prime minister's office in Ji County .

After all, Zheng Pu was in charge of Longyou before, so he should have paid attention to this issue.

In this regard, Zheng Pu did not shirk.

After writing the book and going back to Shu to ask Qiao Zhou candidates, he planned to choose Wei Rong, the son of Wei Yan, Wang Hua, the son of Peng Peng, the prefect of Bajun, Ma Xiu, the son of Ma Zhong, and Fa Miao, the son of Fazheng.

Today, when chatting with Ju Fu, Ju Fu remonstrated that Wang Xun should be counted together.

After explaining in detail, Ju Fu smiled at Wang Ping, "If Zijin is selected, Fei Junshi will hire him. It can also be said that it is inevitable that Zijun's son will be assigned to the prime minister's office!"

Wang Ping was silent for a while.

When he was young, he cupped his hands and thanked him, "Thank you Xiaoxing for your kind words."

Without waiting for the sentence to help out, he continued, "I have 21 altars of Qingjiu in my house, all of which are given to Xiaoxing."

"Ok?"

Ju Fu was stunned, and waved his hands impatiently, "Only two jars. With my family's resources, how can I lack this drink? It's just that I want Zi Jun not to accept this matter, and he will always talk about me in the future." Immediately, he changed the topic again, and said in a low voice, "Well, Zijun, the reason why Zijin asked you and Brother Xiuran to guard the Jingshui River Valley is because of the defenders in Niweiyang City."

Three days later.

In the field of Yangcheng, which was originally besieged by more than [-] Han troops, there was not a single person in sight.

This made Wei Guo's defenders cheer loudly.

Although they had long been encouraged by the Luoyang Temple's edict that "wives can be returned to their citizenship", they no longer cared about life and death; and they didn't know why the Han army suddenly withdrew from the siege, and whether they would come back to besiege in the future; The depression that has been under siege for half a year is gone, and it can finally make people happy.

But not everyone is cheering.

The guard Wang Sheng is an exception.

He has been in the army for more than [-] years, and he is not known as a general in the talented Wei State, but he is the person who is most familiar with the topography and geography among the various ministries of Yongliang.

He didn't think it was a good thing for the Han army to withdraw from the siege.

On the contrary, since the Han army approached the city at the beginning of the year but did not forcefully attack it, he became aware of his situation.

The fate of Yangcheng and the guarding generals is no longer in their control.

Yes, he suddenly felt that it was a failure for Wei Guo to guard the three places of Yangcheng with elites.

Gein, even if the Han army ignored the three places of Yangcheng and crossed Yangcheng and went south to Guanzhong, he, Zhou Dang and Wang Qi's three tribes would not be able to threaten the rear of the Han army.Going north to attack Xiaoguan or Gaoping City is impossible with their strength; while the cavalry of the Zhao Guang Department of the Han Army are on guard here, if they go out of the city to disturb the Han Army's grain roads, they may be killed.

The only function is to defeat the Han army in Yongliang Governor Sima Yi, they can intercept the rout and expand their exploits.

Just, how likely is it to defeat the Han army?

Wang Sheng didn't bother to look forward to it.

Therefore, when he let his soldiers hang out of the city with ropes to find out that Huicheng and Fanxukou were not besieged by the Han army, he recorded the situation here one by one and sent the scouts to Sima Yi.Although the Han army traveled southward to Yong County along the Sishui River Valley and cut off the connection between Beiyuan West Garrison and Yangcheng, some remote paths that cannot pass through the army can still sneak back.

He didn't want to ask for orders, and wanted to attack the Han army back and forth with the Wei army in Beiyuan.

Instead, they told the truth that the three of them were useless in Yangcheng, so that Sima Yi knew what to do and it was easier to dispatch the war.

For example, after the Wei Yan tribe went south, there were less than 20,000 people left in the Zheng Pu tribe who pointed their swords at Longdong!

Not to mention no one guarding the rear for him after he drove his troops into Longdong!

Sima Yi, who had been staying in the siege in the west of Beiyuan, got Wang Sheng's letter and threw it into the brazier after reading it.

It's not that Wang Sheng's letter vaguely questioned his improper scheduling.

Rather, he felt that this was a trick of the Han army to lure the enemy.

"Six Secret Teachings" has a saying: "Birds of prey will strike, and they will fly low and fold their wings; beasts will fight, and they will bow down with their ears closed."

"Sun Tzu's Art of War" has a saying: "Thus, those who are good at fighting will harm others but not others. Those who can make the enemy attack themselves will benefit them; those who can prevent the enemy from attacking them will harm them."

This must be a difficult thing to attack against Shu, so I show my weakness and try to lure Wang Sheng and others to abandon the city for profit and fight!

Sima Yi asserted in his heart.

What's more, he had already learned the news of the great victory in Huainan, and he had just submitted a form to Luoyang Cao Rui, claiming that the strategy of Yushu could not be changed, and he should continue to stick to the tactic of retreating and defending.

The reason is that Wei State, without the invasion of Sun Wu, has more advantages in the confrontation of war.

Fighting for the loss of national power, Ni Shuan can compare with Wei Guo!
