Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 847 Information
The 25th year of Jianxing, February, early morning.

In the early morning, mist covers the fields.During the busy farming season at the end of the month, the common people should weed the fields in the hope of plowing in spring.However, due to the army of the Han and Wei dynasties pulling back and forth, the walls and fields were cleared, the farmlands and villages in Huai County were empty at this time.The place where the common people lived and lived has become a battlefield where the two armies compete for balance. The common people are scattered and their homes are destroyed.

The current scene also confirms Shan Tao's words to Shi Jian, that if Hedong is lost, Hanoi will be harassed by soldiers sooner or later, running under the hooves of horses.The strategist has a far-sighted vision beyond the reach of others.

During the days when the Han army invaded Huai County, Liu Chan ordered the army to station in the eastern suburbs of Huai County. After learning that Jiang Weibing had left Jingxing, he felt relieved and used the barracks as a basis to dig additional trenches and build soil as walls. Showed a long-term confrontation with Sima Yi, and sent a large number of Hu Qi to spy on Wei Ying's movements.

However, Sima Yi would not allow the Han army to build camps easily, and ordered Deng Xian, under his command, to lead the crowd to harass the Han camp.He even sent additional troops to strengthen the forces that harassed the Han army's camps, without giving in at all.

On the unknown field, patrolling Han army rangers saw the haunted Wei army from a distance.Jia Liang, the leader, was the first to see someone wearing a yellow headband in the ranks of the Wei army. He immediately shouted to the surroundings: "Catch up with the bandit army quickly. There is General Wei ahead of him. Just capture him and send him to the camp."

"promise!"

"drive!"

Jia Liang clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and led the rangers behind him to chase the fleeing Wei army ahead.

Guo Xiu, who was in the ranks of the Wei army, turned around and saw Han Qi. He was so frightened that he was ordered by Wang Ji to go out to investigate the enemy's situation and pass on the military information to Deng Xian. He did not expect to meet Han Qi on the way back.

At the beginning, he escaped from prison and leaked the information of the Han army to the Wei army. If he was caught by them, he would suffer a lot.

"go!"

Guo Xiu brandished his whip and frantically whipped the horse under his crotch, but for some reason the horse ran so slowly today.

"Whoosh!"

Jia Liang galloped, bent his bow and set up an arrow, and shot a heavy arrow, directly shooting Wei Qi to death who was fleeing.The rangers behind them were all good at riding and shooting, yelling at each other and outflanking them left and right.

I don't know how long it took, Guo Xiu's left and right were all dead, and he was the only one left.Looking at the Han Qi approaching behind him, he looked extremely flustered, not knowing what to do now.

"Whoosh!"

A heavy arrow pierced the horse's neck from the flank, the artery was damaged, and warm blood flowed out instantly.The war horse neighed in grief, it could no longer run weakly, and fell heavily to the ground, knocking Guo Xiu into a dizzy head, staring at him.

When Guo Xiu came to his senses and was about to draw his sword and stand up, the spear in Jia Liang's hand was already aimed at his throat.He knew that if he dared to move again, the sharp spear would surely pierce his throat.

"Will you surrender?"

Swallowing his saliva, Guo Xiu took a deep breath and said, "Someone is willing to surrender."

"Catch him, tie him up, and send him to the camp to see if he can find out useful military information." Jia Liang put away his spear and said coldly.

"promise!"

……

Liu Chan boarded the watchtower and looked down at the camp of the Han army. He was thinking about the current situation in his heart. According to his footsteps, Jiang Wei should have arrived in Hebei, so Sima Yi should have received the battle report, so why did he not respond? Regarding the harassment of the Han army camp, could it be that he was sure to defeat Jiang Wei, or force Jiang Wei to retreat.

Climbing high and looking far away, Liu Chan was slowly thinking about various military arrangements, hoping that today's scouts would have new news.

While Liu Chan was thinking about it, Du Yu climbed up the ladder to the watchtower and reported, "Your Majesty, our military cavalry has captured a captain of the Wei Army who is in charge of military information transmission, and has now interrogated important military information."

"Ok?"

His expression changed slightly, and Liu Chan asked in surprise, "Could it be that Sima Yi has changed?"

"Exactly!" Du Yu respected his father-in-law and His Majesty in front of him, and replied, "According to Guo Xiu, the captain of the captured Wei army, Sima Yi has left the Wei camp in recent days and led his elite cavalry to head north. , I want to defeat Jiang Wei first, and then turn to attack our army again to relieve the current difficulty. As for the specific military situation, it is still under interrogation."

Liu Chan clenched his fists and said, "Good! Order all the generals to gather in the big tent to discuss this important military situation. Put Guo Xiu in the tent, and I will inquire in person."

"promise!"

About half an hour later, Huo Yi, Deng Ai, Liao Hua, Yuan Hong and other senior generals gathered in the tent.

"Bring Guo Xiu in!"

Liu Chan sat on the top chair, looked around at the crowd, and said: "Now the scouts have captured Guo Xiu, the captain of the Wei Army. Order Wang Ji and Jiang Ji to stay in the camp, and bluff to deceive our army."

"what?"

Everyone present heard the news and whispered to each other.They thought that the recent actions were the prelude to Wei Jun's counterattack, but they didn't expect that it was a manifestation of Wei Jun's bluff.

"Your Majesty, sin has brought Guo Xiu to him!"

Guo Xiu, who was tied up with ropes, entered the camp, and the generals and schools of the Han army who had worked with him before glared at him angrily.Guo Xiu lowered his eyes, not daring to meet their gaze.

Liu Chan waved his hand and ordered, "Untie him!"

"Your Majesty, this..." The Han soldiers guarding Guo Xiu showed hesitation, worried that Guo Xiu would take the opportunity to make trouble after he was unbound.After all, the matter of Dong Lixiong has not dissipated, and it is really worrying.

"Nothing!" Liu Chan smiled and said, "There are brave generals on my left and right, and they are unarmed, so they should be untied."

"No!" The soldier will untie the rope, and secretly warned Guo Xiu before retreating.

Guo Xiu took the opportunity to move his shoulders and said gratefully, "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness!"

Liu Chan was also very friendly and asked to be given a chair, and said: "I don't care about your past. If your information is true, and you help me defeat the enemy, the official salary will not be less!"

"No!" Guo Xiu hurriedly saluted, and replied: "The guilty minister should know everything, please ask Your Majesty."

"En!" Liu Chan responded lightly, and asked, "How many people Sima Yi led to go north, and how many stayed behind in the camp? How about their elites, and how are they arranged?"

Guo Xiu pondered for a while, and replied truthfully: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, Sima Yi set out with 3 elite soldiers on foot and cavalry. There are still [-] troops left behind in the camp, but most of them are old and weak. According to the arrangement, Although Sima Yi ordered the soldiers under his command to raid the camp, he hastened to repair the camp internally, intending to hold the camp firmly, in case His Majesty finds out and takes the opportunity to attack the camp."

"How long did Sima Yi leave and what path did he take?" Liu Chan asked again.

"Sima Yi has sent troops for three days, and he didn't let His Majesty know. He went north and crossed Bishui, and took Shanyang, Gongxian to Muye. It was a detour." Guo Xiu replied.

Liu Chan, Deng Ai, and Huo Yi asked a few more questions, and Guo Xiu may or may not be able to answer them.

After Guo Xiu got out of the account, Liu Chan thought for a while and asked, "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, Guo Xiuruo's answer is correct. This is the opportunity for our army to defeat the enemy." Liao Hua stroked his beard and analyzed, "If Sima Yi leaves the camp, if our army can take this opportunity to break through the Wei camp, the overall situation will be settled!"

The young Yuan Hong shook his head and said: "Although Sima Yi is leaving, there is still a large army in the enemy camp, and they are relying on the camp, so it will be difficult to break through in a short time!"

After a pause, Yuan Hong said: "Hongyuan leads light cavalry, one man and two horses, to attack Sima Yi's army day and night. At that time, our army will defeat Sima Yi, and the remaining Hanoi soldiers will surrender!"

Liu Chan stroked his smooth jaw and asked, "I don't know what Deng Cheqidang thinks?"

Deng Ai made a careful analysis and said: "Your Majesty, I think what General Yuan said is not unreasonable. General Wei led his troops out of Hebei to the east, and the soldiers were exhausted after traveling thousands of miles away. Moreover, most of his subordinates were soldiers, Hu Qi, if Sima Yi leads his troops to the north, I fear that General Wei will not be able to catch him! I think you can follow General Yuan's advice and lead an army to pursue Sima Yi, and defeat him on the way, taking advantage of his unpreparedness."

"Where's Huo Huoqi?"

Huo Yi frowned, and said: "Your Majesty, the Wei camp is based on Huai County, and it is difficult to break it. If Sima Yi can be defeated, it will be very good. But I am afraid that the Wei people deliberately lured our army to attack. And proceed with caution.”

Hearing this, Liu Chan's thoughts couldn't help being shaken. Guo Xiu revealed all the information about Wei Jun, but some of it was false and some of it was true!

Deng Ai seemed to see Liu Chan's hesitation, and said: "Your Majesty, according to my observation of Guo Xiu's words and actions, it should not be deceitful, but he really wants to surrender to my great man! Now Sima Yi is far away from the camp and rushed to the north of the fort. It is a good opportunity for our army to use our troops, and it must not be missed."

(Today, there is a temporary delay at home, so there will be two shifts today, and three shifts tomorrow)
