Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 369 Have you eaten?

Qi Gong Cao Rui took advantage of his father's absence to not only intervene in politics without permission, but even personally followed the army to the west, intending to stay in Chang'an to prevent Xia Houmao from making any mistakes at the critical moment and causing serious problems.

However, although Chen Qun and others went with the army, he was not nominally the commander-in-chief of the army.

The ones in command and support were the Marquis of Chang'an and General Wenpin, who stayed behind in the central government.

Obviously the courtiers also knew how serious it would be if Cao Pi found out if Qi Gong was allowed to control the military.

Even so, you can imagine how angry Cao Pi would be when he returned to the court. It would be fine if he won a big victory in the battle against Wu, but if he didn't take advantage...

But the situation was urgent, and when the important ministers in the DPRK were hesitant about what to do, Cao Rui had to take a gamble.

What's more, Cao Pi has not established a crown prince for a long time. Recently, he seems to have plans to establish Cao Li, the son of Xu Ji, as his heir. Even if he continues to keep a low profile and be careful, it may be difficult to change his mind.

Whether it is national or private, it is time to act.

Also launching actions were Guo Huai and Zhang He.

After finding out that Liu Bei's main force had not yet launched an action, Guo Huai left only 2,000 men to defend the city and brazenly led his army to launch a surprise attack on Ji County.

Guo Shijun, who attacked lightly, did not intend to confront the enemy head-on. As long as Jiang Wei was forced to ask Liu Chan for help, his goal would be achieved.

If Liu Bei divided his troops to fight in the field with him, or if he planned to attack Shanggui by surprise, he would immediately return to retreat.

No matter what Liu Bei chooses, he only needs to send people to keep an eye on the movements in Xi County, which is sandwiched between Qishanbao and Shanggui.

The troops came to the city.

Guo Huai was furious when he looked at the young general at the top of the city. As the governor of Yongzhou, he knew about the Jiang family in Tianshui, but he never took it seriously.

After all, compared to the Guo family, the Jiang family is nothing at all.

But this Jiang family, who was nothing, ruined his big event!

If the Jiang family can rely on Ji County to resist a little, and they can respond and cooperate with them in Shanggui, even if they can't keep Liu Chan here, they can at least slow down his northward speed.

Then Zhang He might arrive on the battlefield before Liu Chan's foothold was stable!

Three thousand cavalry faced Liu Chan's infantry of no more than 10,000 people. The field battle was just two words - crushing.

When the time comes, Liu Chan's vanguard troops will be defeated and the military route from Guanzhong to Longyou will be smooth.

Then take the Lueyang Jieting area as the rear, and Jixian and Shanggui as the front to confront Liu Bei's army!

The Qishan Road is difficult and dangerous, and it is inconvenient for Liu Bei's army to transport food. How can it be compared with the Guanlong Road on our side? It will fade over time.

If he persists in retreating, it will not be so easy for Liu Bei to retreat once reinforcements from the Central Plains arrive.

However, these beautiful dreams are now shattered...

All because of this weakling Chengtou!

"Jiang Wei!" Guo Huai pointed his sword-like fingers at the top of the city angrily, "Your Jiang family has received great favor, but now you don't want to repay it, but instead help the traitors, how can you stand in front of our army!

"If we open the city as early as possible to pray for surrender, and find out when we have lost our way, we can still keep the prosperity of your Jiang family alive. Otherwise... on the day the city is destroyed, no chickens or dogs will be left in this Hebei County city!"

Guo Huai originally thought that the harsh threats would definitely make this junior feel timid. Even if he could not regain Hebei County, he would probably send someone to ask Liu Chan for help...

"Hmph!" Unexpectedly, Jiang Wei was not moved at all, he just sneered, cupped his hands in the distance and said: "My Jiang family has been favored by Long, but the favor I received is not from his Cao family!

"The Jiang family in Tianshui has been guarding the border for the Han Dynasty for generations. Now Cao Pi has usurped the Han Dynasty and is treasonous! I, a descendant of the Jiang family, returned to the Han Dynasty to attack Cao Cao, punish the thieves and punish the rebels. This is an act of serving the Han Dynasty. How can I be compared to someone like you who helps the tyrants and commits evil?"

"You!" Guo Huai was so angry that smoke came out of his nostrils. He wanted to intimidate him, but he was sprayed by the junior.

Before he could organize his words, Jiang Wei continued: "You claim to be orthodox, but you slaughter cities and exterminate tribes at every turn. You read the classics of sages in vain! "On the other hand, my Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, spreads his benevolence, loves the people like a son, and has military virtues. , the world returns to its heart! If you take off your armor and surrender, Your Majesty will be kind and you will not lose your position as a prince. Wouldn't it be wonderful? "

Guo Huai's chest heaved and he pointed at the city: "You little kid with a yellow mouth, I...I..."

"Don't say any more words! Since you don't want to surrender, just talk with swords and guns. You can't act like a woman!"

After Jiang Wei said this, the soldiers on top of the city burst into laughter, showing no fear in the face of an enemy force several times their own.

Not to mention the five hundred Red Star soldiers, although they are a reserve team, they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

Even the other two thousand Han troops were elites carefully selected by Old Liu and Zhuge Liang for Liu Chan. They were all veterans who had seen blood and had never seen anything before.

"That's right, if you want to fight, fight, why bother talking!"

"I think you're scared, right? If you're scared, go home and nurse! Hahaha..."

Guo Huai was angry and anxious, and the enemy's words were like knives, piercing his weak side.

He can only intimidate Jiang Wei. If Jiang Wei really fights somewhere, he can still leave if he wants to?

If they were driven out by Liu Bei's main force or lost to Shanggui, things would be serious.

"Oh, I will allow you to clamor for a few more days. When my great army of the Wei Dynasty arrives, you will not regret it. Let's go!" Guo Huai did not dare to attack after all. He said a harsh word and left in despair.

They left, but they didn't go far. They still blocked the passage southward from Ji County to prevent Ji County from getting in touch with Liu Bei's main force.

After Guo Huai led his troops away, Jiang Wei stared in the direction of the Wei army outside the city in trance. Guo Huai actually came out from Shanggui!

Jiang Wei seemed to see a big fat sheep walking up to him with its butt swaying.

How could he, who was young and energetic, miss such a golden opportunity?

……

Guo Huai is unwilling to attack Ji County, so can Zhang He attack Jieting?

At least the street pavilion in front of him completely gave him no desire to attack...

"His grandma has legs. I remember that the street pavilion is not like this, right?"

Changing horses and galloping all the way, Zhang He hurriedly arrived at the street pavilion. Looking at the small town of street pavilion with deep ditches and high barriers, it was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time. He couldn't help but curse the street.

He had already expected Liu Chan to be blocked in the street pavilion. Judging from the battles in Jingzhou and other places, the other party would not even have such a foresight, but...

Isn’t this a fucking bitch? !

The street pavilion in Zhang He's impression was nothing more than a dilapidated city whose four sides together could not form a complete city wall.

That is to say, it is located in the northwest. If it were in a rainy place like Xiangfan, it would have been washed away by the flood.

But now?

The city wall is more than three feet high, there are two trenches outside the city, and there are antlers between the trenches... What is that thing on top of the city? Big yellow crossbow?

He didn't expect Guo Huai to really be able to delay Liu Chan, but you should at least delay him for a while, right?

This guy can build the street pavilion to look like this, and he has stayed here for at least a month, right? ! What are you doing for food?

Now think about the plan mentioned in Guo Huai's letter... it's just a piece of shit.

"The person coming is Zhang Junyi, General Zhang?" Liu Chan stood leisurely at the top of the city, with two guards fanning behind him.

"General Zhang has come a long way to work hard, why don't you dismount your horse, take off your armor, and go to the city for a short rest?" He held up a roasted leg of lamb dripping with oil in his left hand, picked up the wine skin in his right hand, and grinned, "Have you eaten yet?" ,together?"
