Chapter 1147 Wolong's first cry, Wenpin's defeat!superior

Time passed quickly, and the world was still in chaos.

With the end of the Battle of Guanzhong, some news gradually began to flow out, but because Jingzhou was completely blocked by the powerful Jingwu Division system of the Mu Army, no news from Guanzhong was directly obtained.

And now Jingzhou is still fighting.

The Jingzhou Army and the Jiangdong Army joined forces and almost pushed Mu Jun into a desperate situation.

The first is Wuling.

On the Wuling battlefield, the Mu army had only one main force, and that was the Wuxi Battalion.

This time, Wuxiying was desperate.

Shamoke almost came out in full force, but defending the city was not the advantage of the Wuxi camp. When the Mu army was defeated in the Yangtze River and the Changsha army broke through Wuling, the Wuxi camp retreated steadily and lost several cities.

In the end, basically, only the main city of Wuling remained.

Wuxi camp sticks to the main city of Wuling.

Once this city is lost, the Mu army will officially lose the entire Wuling. Wuling is adjacent to Bajun, which is the prefecture of the Minghou Mansion. It is easy to be driven straight into Jiangzhou.

Therefore, Wuling cannot afford to lose.

But the situation is getting worse.

Linyuan City.

Inside the city is Wuxi Camp.

The Changsha Army outside the city.

Under the confrontation between the two armies, there has been a stalemate for quite some time, but relatively speaking, the momentum of the Wuxi Battalion is getting weaker and weaker. It has lost three times in a row before and was driven in from the border of Wuling, and its morale lost a lot.

And the Changsha army, with strong soldiers and strong horses, with a total of [-] main forces, stationed in the city, if it was not worried about the loss of too much, it would have rushed in with a brain.

on the city head.

Sha Moke put on his battle armor, his eyes were cold and murderous: "It seems that their patience is getting less and less, pass the order and prepare for a bloody battle. In addition, to guard the west gate, we have to withdraw from the west !"

"promise!"

All the military marquises surrendered and took orders.

"Lieutenant Shamoke, are you unable to defend Wuling?" Liu Ba stood beside him and asked gloomyly.

"Prefect Liu, take a look at the situation. With my battalion, can I hold it?" Shamoke asked back.

"So you are going to abandon Wuling!"

"Unless I have to, I will not retreat, but I am also a person who has read military books. If you lose land, you will save people. If you lose people, you will lose land. If you lose both people and land, I will not die for Wuling!"

"That's not what you said when you entered Wuling that day!"

"This has to be discussed with you!" Sha Moke said lightly: "I am just a general, and I am only responsible for fighting!"

"Has Captain Shamoke ever thought about surrendering?"

Liu Ba asked.

"no!"

"why?"

"The loss of the Mu army is only temporary. I firmly believe that Jingzhou still belongs to our Minghou Mansion. You have never seen the strength of Minghou Mansion. I am willing to put the hope of the Wuxi Man tribe in Minghou Mansion. not on Jingzhou's body!"

"But once Wuling falls, the Wuxi barbarians will bear the brunt, and you are not afraid of exterminating the clan!"

"In troubled times, there is no peace. Peace is achieved. Since we are on the battlefield, we have to bear the consequences. Besides..." Shamoke sneered: "They can't destroy us Wuximan. Desperate here!"

Liu Ba looked at Sha Moke with vivid eyes. He actually looked down on these barbarians, but he had to look at Sha Moke with admiration. It was also very deep, but his firmness towards the Minghou Mansion was beyond his expectations.

Then, all that's left is to make your own choice.

That day when the Mu army soldiers approached the city, he made a choice.

Now, he still has to make a choice.

It is a choice about the life and death of the entire Wuling.

"Minghou Mansion!"

Liu Ba groaned, and gradually clenched his fists.

..........................................

outside the city.

Zhang Yun has a lot of strength in the navy, and the commander of the army is also a good player. He drives straight in and is invincible, which makes him pack up a lot of his former momentum, but this Linyuan City is not easy to fight.

"General, Liu Ba has replied!"

"How to say!"

"Here!" The guard sent a brocade box.

Zhang Yun opened the brocade box, his eyes suddenly darkened: "He is courting death!"

This is his messenger.

When the two armies are at war, if they don't kill and envoy, that's just and aboveboard, and it's not necessarily something.

The envoy he sent was to talk about surrendering Liu Ba.

Open the city gate to welcome the Jingzhou army into the city.

Everyone is happy, he believes that Liu Ba will make the right choice, so that he can reduce the loss of some troops. Most of the Changsha army is a new army, which looks like a tiger. , the others are not to be said to be mobs, but in fact they are only on the battlefield for the first time, and their combat effectiveness must be at least discounted.

Siege was the last option he wanted.

But now I'm afraid it won't work.

What Liu Ba sent back was a head. He beheaded the envoy who said he would surrender. This was his reply.

"Wei Yan!"

"exist!"

"Pass down the order and prepare for tomorrow..."

"General, my lord's secret letter!" Just as he was about to go to war, a secret letter was delivered.

After reading the secret letter, Zhang Yun was a little gloomy.

"Damn!"

Zhang Yun paced back and forth, a little upset, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with this order. After all, if Wuling could not be used as a springboard to enter Berkshire, it would not have much strategic effect at all. It really shouldn't be a loss of troops here. , but it is a pity to give up.

"Decree, prepare to withdraw troops tomorrow, we will go north to Xiangyang!"

Zhang Yun gritted his teeth and ordered, then raised his head, looked at Lin Yuan in front of him, and said quietly: "Don't worry, I'll play with you slowly after I take back Xiangyang!"

................................................

Wuling's Jingzhou army went northward, and they did it very secretly. After all, Zhang Yun was a famous general on the battlefield. He was well prepared for the march, and the camp he built was majestic and powerful.

As for the Wuxi Camp in Linyuan City, given them 1 reasons at this time, none of them dared to go out of the city to try.

So Zhang Yun only left a small part of his troops as a cover. He had already escaped from his shell, and led the main force, following the direction of Jingzhou City, and began to go north to Nanjun.

……

The main forces of the Jiangdong and Jingzhou armies are still stationed in Yiling Yidao. Their scouts are everywhere, looking for the remaining main force of the Mu army. The news that the army entered Changbanpo.

It is the closest to Changbanpo, so it is naturally stationed in Jingzhou City, [-] miles to the north, and only [-] miles away from Huarong Road.

Zhuge Liang played a trick on Wenpin's violent bear army chasing Zhou Cang back then. If the entire army is not wiped out, [-]% of the troops will basically be killed.

So when Wenpin received the news, he marched towards Changbanpo non-stop.

…………

Changban Slope.

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, it has become a camp for the herdsmen.

On a hill.

Zhuge Liang and Zhou Cang stood side by side.

Zhou Cang smiled wryly: "Little Zhuge, you have a tricky task to come back this time. I only have the main force of the three battalions, and I lost a lot in the battle in Jingzhou City. The battalions are not enough, and the number of soldiers is only six or seven thousand. But you know, diplomas have [-] main force!"

"How can there be [-] main forces!"

Zhuge Liang said indifferently: "Jingzhou has been militaristic for the past two years, and I feel a little shuddering. This Liu Jingsheng is planning to squeeze out Jingzhou's population reserve and create a main force of more than 20. The combat effectiveness is obvious to all, let alone Wenpin. The main force under his command is in the early [-] or [-] at most, even if there are enough [-], I believe that most of them are the young and strong main force, not his direct descendant's elite soldiers!"

Wenpin is a general on the battlefield. He has fought many battles. He has his own elite lineage under his command. These are the soldiers that can be fought. However, those young and strong can increase their power by winning a battle, but as long as they are defeated in the first battle, Just becoming a burden.

On the battlefield, military strength is indeed a fatal element.

But sometimes military strength does not represent combat effectiveness.

As for the Mu army, the fighting power is the best in the world. It is not just a lie. Zhuge Liang has seen the training of the Mu army and the establishment of the Mu army. He is not an elite but not an army. This point is enough to kill all the princes in the world.

Based on the situation in Bashu, it is by no means an exaggeration to raise 30 to [-] soldiers.

But in the case of the Mu army, there are only more than [-] troops. This is the strategy of elite soldiers.

The Violent Bear Army, in the Mu Army system, is not absolutely elite.

But it has always been a powerful soldier.

Otherwise, Zhuge Liang has no confidence that he can fight more with fewer enemies.

"Even so, we are still very dangerous!" Zhou Cang thought for a while, and said, "Wenpin is a general on the battlefield, he is definitely not easy to deal with, if Chen Dao joins us and gathers our forces, there is still a battle ahead." force!"

"no!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "Now it's not just Wenpin who are staring down at us. Once Chen Dao moves, it will give them a chance to completely defeat us. So far, our advantage is that they can't figure it out. , so we can’t mobilize all the troops, once they get a thorough understanding of our approach and encircle and suppress us, they will come!”

"All right!"

Zhou Cang thought about it for a while, and he didn't want to use his brain anymore. He said in a deep voice, "I support you. If you say how to fight, then do so!"

"March map!"

Zhuge Liang gave a low snort.

The two personal guards on the left and right opened a marching map and spread it out in front of Zhuge Liang and Zhou Cang.

"General Zhonglang, the battlefield must be on the east bank!"

Zhuge Liang said.

Changbanpo is adjacent to the river. This is the Han River flowing down from Xiangyang. It divides this piece of hell into two, the east bank and the west bank. The west bank is where the main force is stationed. .

At the same time, it can go straight in from Yiling Xiaoting, so the troops on the west bank must defend the main force of Jingzhou.

Then the battlefield cannot be on the West Bank.

to be placed on the east coast.

Only in this way can the fight be fought as a local war. If the main forces of both sides do not intervene, Zhuge Liang may have a chance to clean up Wenpin. As long as Wenpin is defeated or even killed, the situation in Jingzhou will change.

At least it can give Mu Jun a little more time.

When the main force of the herding army officially goes south, the offensive and defensive directions will change immediately.

"A battalion under my command has already crossed the river. Next, the main force will also cross the river. But on the east bank, going south is Jingzhou City. There are some Jingzhou troops in Jingzhou City. What if they move?"

Zhou Cang said worriedly.

The main force of Jingzhou is in Yidao, but Jingzhou City, as the main city, is also the most important strategic location in Jingzhou. At least [-] troops are stationed there.

"I hope they won't move. After all, as the defenders of Jingzhou City, Jingzhou City's strategic reserves are very important. They dare not move easily. Of course, we have to plan for the best and the worst!"

Zhuge Liang said: "I have already told Xi Sima to keep an eye on them, and at the same time, I also asked Zhanhuying to prepare. If they dare to come out, that would be the best. Jingzhou City, which we had never been able to break through before, just happened Once the fire is on, all problems will be solved by then!"

Where is Jingzhou City? It is the largest logistics warehouse of the Jingzhou Army. At present, if the Jingzhou Army and Jiangdong Army want to enter Yizhou, they must first ensure the supply of the logistics base in Jingzhou City.

So Zhuge Liang guessed that even if Wenpin was defeated by him, Jingzhou City might not dare to send troops to reinforce it. Even if it wanted to send troops, it would not be Jingzhou City. not afraid.

"Even so, it's not easy for us to fight. Huarong went north, it was Jingling, and Jingling was his support. He was able to recruit elites freely. We crossed the river and crossed the east bank. Relatively speaking, we lost Dangyang and Changbanpo. It depends on the terrain!"

Zhou Cang said in a low voice: "In terms of offensive and defensive positions, we lost [-]%!"

"who said it!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "General Zhonglang, you are thinking of defending first and then counterattacking. Naturally, you are being checked and balanced by the terrain, but what if we never thought about building fortifications?

"What do you mean?"

"The two armies are at war, and when they meet on a narrow road, the brave will win!" Zhuge Liang said decisively: "I never thought of chasing hide-and-seek with him at the beginning. This battle must be decided quickly!"

"don't know!"

"It means that we will fight directly. We will build camps, and we will not give them a chance to breathe. We will strike first, break their formation, tear their formation, and directly destroy them!"

"Once frustrated, wouldn't our army suffer heavy casualties, or even be wiped out?"

There is a matter of going forward and not retreating, just like an arrow shot out, it will be very fast and full of momentum, if you can accurately aim at the target, maybe it will really hit the target with one arrow.

But if you encounter a little obstacle, you will be blocked, and there will be no chance at all.

"Can you take care of me at this time!"

Zhuge Liang asked Zhou Cang: "If we wait for Wenpin to stand firm first, fight steadily, [-] troops, and eat us, won't it be a matter of time? You can't wait or hesitate about this matter. Now is the time to fight hard. , when you are desperate, you must focus, and you can't think too much about what you have or what you don't have, or you will lose miserably!"

"Hey!"

Zhou Cang sighed a little: "Unexpectedly, I, who has fought in the battlefield for more than ten years, can understand it better than a young man like you. The older you are, the less courageous you are. Maybe you are right. You really can't think too much when you are desperate. Victory or death!"

He patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder, and handed him a piece of Tiger Talisman in his hand: "I thought you were a bit small before, but now I think that you are capable. I will give you the Tiger Talisman, and you can mobilize all the boys in the Violent Bear Army." , including me, until the end of this battle!"

"Thank you for your trust!"

Zhuge Liang felt Zhou Cang's firm trust and self-confidence, and he said firmly, "I will never let General Zhonglang down!"
