Han Shimou

() When Cao Pi heard the words, his expression changed continuously, and then he turned into an expression of disbelief, and exclaimed.

"This is really a wild talk!! Let's not say that Zhuge Kongming is full of wisdom. Let's say that the terrain of Chengdu City is dangerous, and the Shu Road is a natural danger. The city is as solid as gold, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if there are millions of soldiers Conquer this city. Wen Bufan only has [-] troops, how can he conquer this city of Chengdu!?"

"Wars are ever-changing and unpredictable. In any case, the other army's reinforcements have arrived, and their morale will definitely be boosted. And our army has little supplies, so we must not act rashly!! Everything needs to be done carefully."

Cao Pixiao narrowed his eyes, his eyes were like burning flames, he suddenly turned to report to the scouts, and said in a cold voice.

"How many soldiers and horses did the other army come?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, there are about three thousand people!"

The scout saw that Cao Pi's face was heavy and uncertain, and he seemed to be hiding a monstrous anger that was about to explode, so he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly replied.After Cao Pi heard this, the anxious and angry expression on his face improved slightly, and he said in a deep voice. . .

"If there are only three thousand, it's not enough to cause trouble. According to Duke Xun, what should we do?"

Xun You couldn't help frowning when he heard the words, and persuaded him loudly.

"Zhang Wenyuan is incomparably brave and has a great strategy. He is not an idler. Yong'an has this person to help him, which is better than thousands of troops. At present, our army is short of food, and the soldiers have been attacking Yong'an for a long time, and their spirit has been discouraged. Your Highness needs more help." Focusing on the overall situation, retreat back to Wucheng first, wait for the supply team to arrive and get supplies, and then plan for the future."

Cao Pi was very displeased when he heard this, and waved and shouted.

"Before the other army's reinforcements arrived, our army fled on hearing the news. If this happened, wouldn't it make the world a joke? Is my great Wei Hu master and apprentice a false name!?"

"One moment and another moment. The current situation is very unfavorable to our army, I hope His Highness think twice!!"

Seeing that Cao Pi had no intention of withdrawing his troops, Xun You's expression changed, and he urged again urgently.Cao Pi lowered his voice, changed the subject, and said suddenly.

"It turned out to be so. Why don't you call Huhou and Ziwen to come together and ask them together."

When Xun You heard the words, he was full of bitterness. Xu Chu and Cao Zhang were both war-loving people, so naturally they were unwilling to withdraw their troops.However, Xun You couldn't refute Cao Pi's intention any more, so he had no choice but to agree.Cao Pi nodded, then taught the left and right to summon.After a while, Xu Chu and Cao Zhang entered Cao Pi's barracks one after the other. After the salute, they all sat down according to Cao Pi's eyes.Cao Pi then told the story.When Xu Chu heard it, his eyes widened and he roared.

"Zhang Wenyuan is no more than a junior, so what's the matter!? Your Highness, don't worry too much. If he dares to come, he will definitely behead him and offer it to the tent!!"

When Cao Pi heard this, he was overjoyed and laughed.

"Haha! With Huhou here, I am naturally not afraid of Zhang Wenyuan. However, seeing that our army was short of food, the soldiers were unable to attack for a long time, and their morale was low, so they deliberately withdrew back to Wucheng. I also think there is a lot of reason in this, But I am afraid of destroying the prestige of my Great Wei Hushi, it is hesitating."

Xu Chu stared strangely, got up angrily, looked at Xun You suddenly, and shouted angrily.

"Don't worry too much, Mr. Xun. I heard that the food in the army can last for ten days. Why don't you order the army to fight back and conquer Yong'an within ten days. Anyone who dares to fight and fails will be dealt with by the military law!! I wish to die before my death. Wei captured Yong'an!!"

Xu Chu is very imposing, full of majesty, and domineering, as if he can conquer even a mountain of ten thousand feet.As soon as Cao Pi heard this, he wanted to open his mouth to give an order as a result of his courage.Suddenly Cao Zhang's expression darkened, and he said in a concentrated voice.

"Wait a minute, Huhou. Now morale is low, and I am forced to fight. I am afraid that it will be difficult to accomplish anything. If we get what we want, our army will be wiped out. Before leaving, my father reminded me again and again that everything must be obeyed by Duke Xun."

"If that's the case, why don't you just retreat in such a panic, and teach that Tang thief Zhuzi to laugh at me waiting for Master Wei Hu!?"

Xu Chu's expression darkened, and he said in a cold voice.Cao Zhang smiled calmly, his face was determined, his eyes glowed with golden light, gorgeous and compelling, and he spoke in a calm and unhurried manner.

"Of course not. If our army withdraws, the other army will think that our army is short of food, and they have the courage of Zhang Wenyuan, so they will send troops to cover up and kill them. But our army is lying in ambush on the road, killing him by surprise. If it succeeds, the morale of the three armies will be greatly improved." After the big earthquake, our army will return to attack, fight with all our strength, and conquer Yong'an in one fell swoop! If not, our army can also take the opportunity to withdraw to Wucheng!"

Once Cao Zhang came up with this plan, it was extremely ingenious.Xun You's complexion changed continuously, and finally he was smiling all over his face, holding his beard with his hand, and sighed.

"Ziwen's plan is very clever. It can be said that he has not seen him for three days. You should look at him with admiration!"

"Mr. Xun praised it absurdly, it's just a small plan."

Cao Zhang seemed to have calmed down a lot, and said with a light smile.Cao Pi, who was on the side, listened to the plan, but his face was extremely complicated, both surprised and happy, but there was a bit of inexplicable fear hidden.And Xu Chu seemed to agree with Cao Zhang's strategy, and nodded repeatedly.

Seeing that Cao Pi hadn't responded yet, Xun You thought he was still in shock, so he smiled, bowed his hands and said.

"Your Highness, Ziwen's plan is very clever, you should follow it."

As soon as Xun You said this, Cao Pi suddenly came back to his senses, and laughed to cover up the embarrassment just now. After laughing, he said meaningfully to Cao Zhang.

"It's so-called gaining wisdom by eating a pit. Brother Zhang is good at using strategies. If the father finds out, he will be overjoyed."

Cao Pi seemed to have something in his words, Cao Zhang's golden eyes glowed deeply, and after looking at Cao Pi for a while, he cupped his hands and said.

"Brother Huang won the trust of his father and was able to lead the three armies. If he can conquer Jianping this time, he will make great achievements and shock the Central Plains. It will be a matter of course when he takes over my Great Wei throne. I will definitely do my best to help."

As soon as Cao Zhang said this, Cao Pi couldn't help but twitched in his heart, took a deep breath, and laughed again.Cao Zhang also laughed out loud.Xun You and Xu Chu didn't make a sound, they stood quietly to one side.So Cao Pi followed Cao Zhang's plan and ordered the three armies to pack up their luggage that night, and after the third watch, they pulled out the stronghold and withdrew.The three armies are ordered to prepare separately, which is a matter of course.

On the other side, the time is at the beginning of the change.When Wenshun heard that the scouts had come to report, Zhang Liao led his troops to help them. He was overjoyed and rushed out of the city with Xu Shu, Deng Ai, Wang Shuang and others to greet them. Zhang Liao and others came to aid the soldiers.During the banquet, all the generals sat down.After drinking for three rounds, Wen Shun hurriedly asked Zhang Liao about the battle in Chengdu.Zhang Liao's face was serious, showing a bit of a smile, so he elaborated one by one.When Wenshun heard that his father used thunder and cannons to set up a victory and led the army to break through Chengdu, he was both surprised and delighted.Xu Shu said with a bit of sigh.

"Your Majesty is really a god and a man, my Tang Dynasty has such a magical weapon, how can it be Cao Weiye!?"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao seemed to be recalling the fierce battle with the Shu soldiers in Chengdu, with a serious expression on his face, he nodded and said.

"What Xu Gong said is very true. At the beginning of the battle in Chengdu, because of the dangerous terrain and Zhuge Liang's advice for the Shu soldiers, it was difficult every step of the way. But at critical moments, the king issued an order to use thunder cannons, like thunder from the sky, instantly The flames of the time were overwhelming, and the Shu army was defeated in an instant. Our army attacked vigorously, so we were invincible and invincible. Later, the other army wanted to defend Chengdu to the death, and took advantage of the solidity of the city to slowly entangle with our army. The king put down 120 Eight thunder cannons stormed for three days and three nights, blowing up the urn and city gates to collapse, and our army was able to invade Chengdu!! He waited until the king stabilized Xichuan, and our army was able to recharge its strength, not to mention This Cao Wei, even if it is a country in the world, is also in the bag!!"

Zhang Liao's words were clattering and resounding.Wen Shun, Xu Shu and others were fascinated and intoxicated when they heard it, and they were astonished as heaven and man.At this moment, Wang Shuang frowned and said with a puzzled expression.

"Your Majesty has such a divine weapon, why didn't you take it out early, if so, why did it take so much time to conquer Xichuan, and so many soldiers died in vain!!"

Wang Shuangsheng is upright and straightforward, and he doesn't hold back his words. Once these words come out, it is really disrespectful.Deng Ai's face became anxious, his eyes widened suddenly, and he shouted sharply.

"Shut up!! I don't know the situation, I don't know the advantages and disadvantages, how dare I speak nonsense here!! The king is an unscrupulous king, he is considerate of the soldiers, and treats the soldiers and the people as his sons. How can I let a soldier of the Western Tang Dynasty die in vain!? Among them It has its own meaning!!"

Wang Shuang was yelled at by Deng Ai, and immediately knew that her big mouth was presumptuous, so she knelt down on the ground and confessed.Wen Shun had always known Wang Shuang's son, so he didn't blame him. He beckoned and taught Wang Shuang to sit at the table, and then smiled at Deng Ai.

"Zi Quan was born upright, this is an unintentional mistake. Shi Zai don't have to blame too much. However, from what you said, I seem to know my father's deep intentions, so you might as well say it."

Deng Ai's face was shocked when he heard this, Xu Shu, Zhang Liao and others all looked at him.Seeing that everyone's eyes in the tent were focused on Deng Ai, Deng Ai didn't panic, his face was solemn, and he said in a concentrated voice.

"Wang Shangxiong is very talented. Although he made such an artifact as a thunderbolt, he knew that this artifact would shock the world. At that time, our Western Tang Dynasty and the Shu Han fought fiercely. The Cao Wei was powerful and had more than 70 soldiers in his hands. If our army had revealed this artifact earlier, the soldiers of Shu would have been unable to resist it and would have been defeated repeatedly. However, with Zhuge Liang's wisdom, he would definitely gather all the troops to defend the country. At the same time, he would send someone to report Cao Cao. Cao Cao is the hero of the world, and he knows the pros and cons. If he finds out what Zhuge Liang said, he will break the alliance with the Tang Dynasty and join the Shu Han to attack the Western Tang Dynasty. At that time, because Zhuge Liang withdrew his troops earlier, the troops were preserved. , Waiting for Cao Cao to raise his army and attack east and Hejian of our West Tang. Zhuge Liang must send troops from Dongchuan. Cao Wei and Shu Han, both armies will go out together. Even with such artifacts as thunder cannons in hand, it will be difficult to resist the general trend of the two countries. At that time, the country will be in danger of being destroyed. Therefore, the king endured the humiliation and waited for the opportunity to not reveal such artifacts as thunder cannons! !"

When Xu Shu heard what Deng Ai said, he clapped his hands and applauded.Zhang Liao also showed some surprise, as if he looked at Deng Ai with admiration.As for Wang Shuang's hearing, he didn't know much about it.But Wen Shun's expression was determined, as if he and Deng Ai wanted to go together, and then smiled again.

"In this way, why did my father show off his divine weapon in the battle of Chengdu?"

"At that time, Cao Wei had conquered Jingzhou, gathered more than hundreds of thousands of troops in Jiangling, and prepared for the great cause of defeating Wu. Cao Cao was bound to win against Eastern Wu, and he focused on that. The battle of Chengdu is very important, but if we can conquer this city , the Shu Han was destroyed. Therefore, the king took advantage of the magic weapon to attack in one fell swoop. After Chengdu was conquered, Cao Wei had already fought fiercely with Soochow in the east of the river.

And when the battle between Cao Wei and Soochow ended, our Western Tang Dynasty had already pacified Xichuan, recharged our strengths, and stabilized the situation.Regardless of whether Cao Wei's war in Jiangdong was successful or unsuccessful, his vitality and national strength must be severely damaged.I, Xi Tang, am not afraid either! "

"Okay! Good! Good! Shizai is indeed a talent of hundreds of miles, and in time, he will be the pillar of our Western Tang Kingdom!!"

When Xu Shu heard the words, he couldn't help standing up abruptly, applauding endlessly.Zhang Liao also clapped his palms and praised Deng Ai full of praise.At this time, even Wang Shuang had come to a complete realization, and nodded repeatedly with a dumbfounded expression, saying that it was so.

Deng Ai was praised so highly by everyone, but his expression was still neither humble nor overbearing, without any arrogance, and his demeanor was calm.Xu Shu was even more delighted when he saw it, and then secretly cast a look at Wen Shun, only to see Wen Shun smiling resolutely, not surprised.
