The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1059 Fake a shot

Of course, Ning Sui would not be discouraged because of the setback of the first attack. The battle itself is not so easy to fight, let alone such a dangerous pass like Yuanyuan Pass.

Soon, the Shu army organized again and invested in the second wave of attack. If the first attack was somewhat tentative, then in the second wave of attack, Ning Sui did his best. With all his strength, he tried his best.

Ning Sui was the vanguard this time, which was suggested by Jiang Wei himself. Ning Sui has followed Jiang Wei for many years, and he is loyal and loyal. Jiang Wei made him the vanguard, because he meant to support him. You must know that the Shu army is attacking Luoyang this time. , as a vanguard officer, he is the most likely to be the first to break into Luoyang City. If it is a great achievement, Jiang Wei will remember it to his confidant general.

However, this first achievement is obviously not easy to obtain. As a vanguard officer, you have to open roads across mountains, build bridges when encountering waters, attack cities and pull villages, and take the lead. What if you can't even take down a small gate? Talk about attacking Luoyang City.

This time Ning Sui was the vanguard officer, naturally he was full of confidence and ambition. He went north from Xiangyang and won several cities along the way. Remember Sap.

Compared with those dangerous passes in Shu, it is not that there is more than one rank difference. Ning Sui has stayed in Jiange for a long time. He has seen the majesty of Bashan and Shushui, so naturally he will not take Shenyuan Pass seriously. .

However, the strength of the defense at Shenyuan Pass was beyond Ning Sui's expectations. Even though Ning Sui did not invest too much troops in the first wave of attack, the corpses of Shu soldiers lying all over the pass were still impressive. shocking.

Ning Sui was furious, drew his sword in his hand, and ordered the Shu soldiers to gather and launch a fierce attack again. Ning Sui clenched his teeth and vowed to step down the Yuanguan Pass.

The second wave of the Shu army's attack obviously required more troops than the first wave, so this time the battle was more intense. The army is like locusts spreading on the ground, densely packed, innumerable.

All the way to the north, the momentum was like a broken bamboo, but it was blocked under the Yuanguan Pass, and there were many casualties. The anger of the Shu army can be imagined, so after the attack again, the offensive of the Shu army was like a tide, violently impacting the defense line of the Yuanguan.

Yang Zhao seemed a little flustered, but the well-organized defensive facilities at Shuyuan Pass still helped him a lot. No matter how fierce the Shu army's attack was, Shuyuan Pass was like an iron wall, firmly blocking Shuyuan Pass. In front of the army, they couldn't go beyond half a step.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ning Sui had no choice but to give up the attack, and retreated a few miles to set up camp, planning to wait until tomorrow to launch an attack.

On the second day, Jiang Wei also led his troops to catch up. Seeing that the Shu army had not yet conquered the Shuyuan Pass, his expression suddenly darkened, and he asked, "General Ning, how long has it been since this small Shuyuan Pass has been conquered?" If you can’t take it down, how long will it take to reach Luoyang?”

Ning Sui blushed and said with shame: "The last general is incompetent. Today the last general will lead the army to fight again. If he still can't win the Yuanguan Pass, he will be punished by the military law."

Just as Jiang Wei was about to speak, a sergeant came to report: "General, Jin general Du Yu abandoned Nanyang and led his troops to chase him. He is now less than [-] miles away from our rear guard."

Jiang Wei's expression froze. This Du Yu chased him so fast. It stands to reason that Du Yu first reported to Sima Yan. After getting Sima Yan's approval, he could abandon Nanyang. Now it seems that Du Yu didn't do it at all. It was he who gave up Nanyang on his own initiative. He really didn't expect Du Yu to act so boldly. You must know that leaving one's post without authorization is a death penalty, let alone abandoning such an important city as Jingzhou.

Jiang Wei pondered for a while, and said: "Since Du Yu came to die, let him be fulfilled first, and it will not be too late to take Zhiyuan Pass."

Du Yu was in hot pursuit, so Jiang Wei couldn't devote himself wholeheartedly to the battle against Shenyuanguan. The most urgent task was to eliminate Du Yu before he could attack Luoyang, otherwise Du Yu would be like brown sugar. Sticking to the back, like a bone maggot, it's annoying and annoying.

Of course, more importantly, Du Yu's army is by no means an army that can be ignored. Du Yu still has more than 7 horsemen. If he catches the opportunity and bites hard, Jiang Wei It must be unbearable, so Jiang Wei dare not take it lightly.

Although the plan to attack Luoyang will be delayed if he turns around to deal with Du Yu, Jiang Wei has no other choice. Only by completely eliminating his worries can he concentrate on attacking Luoyang.

In fact, Du Yu's situation is also very embarrassing now. Jiang Wei and Zhong Hui's [-] troops are in front, and Jiang Bin Wangshe's chasing troops are behind him. When Jiang Wei's army turned around and prepared to deal with him, Things got even more difficult.

Du Yu knew that if he fought a field battle with the Shu army in Yangcheng, he would definitely suffer a loss, so he took advantage of the fact that the encirclement circle of the Shu army was not closed, shot a feint, and led the army to look northeast.

Jiang Wei was slightly surprised by Du Yu's avoidance and not fighting. It stands to reason that Du Yu gave up Nanyang and chased the Shu army all the way northward.But now Du Yu doesn't even have the courage to confront the Shu army, how can he stop the Shu army from advancing to Luoyang?
Ning Sui asked Jiang Wei for instructions: "General, Du Yu fled to the east, do you want to go after him?"

Jiang Weidao: "Don't chase after poor bandits. The most urgent thing now is to take down Zhiyuan Pass. Pass on our military order not to pursue Du Yu. Gather the whole army and attack Shenyuan Pass with all your strength."

After Du Yu fled to the east, Jiang Bin Wangshe's army also caught up with Jiang Wei's army. Jiang Bin Wangshe also asked Jiang Wei to pursue Du Yu, but Jiang Wei did not agree. Let them join Ning Sui's vanguard battalion and launch another attack on Yuanguan.

The last time Ning Sui attacked Shenyuan Pass, he only brought a battalion of [-] soldiers. This time the Shu army attacked Shenyuan Pass again, but it had already increased its strength by five or six times. Full of confidence, together with Jiang Bin and Wang She, they once again went to the city of Shuyuan Pass, and began a fierce attack on Shuyuan Pass.

But as soon as Ning Sui killed the Guancheng, he heard shouts from the city, and countless soldiers poured out. The momentum was many times stronger than when Yang Zhao was guarding the Yuanguan. Ning Sui was secretly surprised and thought it was The reinforcements sent by the Jin army, who knows that there is now a person in the Guancheng, not someone else, but it is Du Yu!
