The last three kingdoms

Chapter 391

If the loss of Longxi only hurt the skin of Wei, then losing Guanzhong would be a traumatic injury. Jia Chong knows this very well. Since ancient times, those who win Guanzhong have won the world. Zhou, Qin, and Han Gai can't be excluded, and so is Cao Cao. After getting Guanzhong, the foundation of Cao Wei was really laid.

What's more, Guanzhong is still the only way to go to Yizhou. At present, all the food and supplies of the Zhonghui Corps fighting in Yizhou are supplied by Guanzhong. Once Guanzhong falls, it will be almost a devastating blow to the Zhonghui Corps.

Therefore, the importance of Guanzhong is self-evident, but at this moment, the foundation of the country is being greatly threatened by the failure of the battle of Jieting. Jia Chong is also worried that Guanzhong will not be able to defend, so he proposed Sima Zhao to adjust the clock Part of the troops from the meeting returned to aid Guanzhong to help Sima guard Chang'an. After all, there are almost no soldiers in Luoyang to transfer.

Sima Zhao shook his head lightly, mobilizing Zhonghui's men and horses to help him back, that would mean the failure of his entire strategic system, which was unacceptable to the ambitious Sima Zhao.

Now the situation in Yizhou has reached the most critical moment. Zhong Hui has already conquered Luocheng in Yizhou. Transferring Wei Jun back to Guanzhong is tantamount to drawing a salary from the bottom of the pot. A pot of good porridge that was originally simmered on a slow fire may eventually become raw rice.

But isn't Sima Zhao worried about mistakes in Guanzhong?
Of course he was worried.Sima Zhao didn't know the importance of Guanzhong. Once Guanzhong fell, the whole of Heluo would be in danger. Sima Zhao would do his best to stop this kind of thing that endangered the Sima family's rule.

Although there are no soldiers in Luoyang area to adjust, Sima Zhao did not panic too much. Sima Wang was only defeated in Jieting, but the whole army was not wiped out. There are nearly 2 troops, and the main force is still there. Even if Sima Wang no longer has the ability to regain strength and attack Longxi, self-defense is still more than enough. As long as he can persist for another three or two months, Sima Zhao will It is enough to mobilize soldiers from other places to rescue.

Sima Zhao is very clear about Sima Wang's ability. He can only say that the failure in the battle of Jieting was an accident. As Jia Chong said, Sima Wang was defeated by new equipment. With a discount, Sima Zhao, as the pillar of Wei's military circle, still has deep trust in Sima Wang.

Guanzhong has always been an important defensive area for the Wei army. The previous Northern Expeditions of the Shu Han were concentrated in the Guanzhong and Longyou areas. This also directly prompted the Wei State to continuously strengthen the defense system in the Guanlong area. The defense of the center, including Chencang, Meixian, Wugong, Fufeng and other cities, is like golden soup.

When Sima Zhao served as General Anxi, he had been stationed in Yongliang, and he knew Guanzhong's defense system and dangerous terrain well. Sima Zhao believed that with Sima Wang's ability, there would be no big problem in defending Chang'an. Yes, it is not an easy task for Liu Yin to cross the dangerous hurdle of Chencang.

As the former capital of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an is the core area of ​​Guanzhong Sanfu. Its fortification is comparable to that of Luoyang. Sima Wang sits in Chang'an with [-] soldiers. Sima Zhao really can't think of any reason why Guanzhong might not be able to defend it. .

Can a small failure shake Sima Zhao's determination to win the world?This is simply an absurdity in the world. Sima Zhao has experienced more than one or two points of wind and rain to sit in today's position. He has long been indifferent to success or failure. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. The victory or defeat of a battle can't decide anything. , Wei Guo has a profound background, so how can Liu Yin, a clown who is a jumping beam, be shaken?
Sima Wang had regained his composure, and said calmly and calmly: "The army of Zhonghui should not be moved lightly. I believe that Zichu can be qualified to guard the Guanzhong. Besides, Chang'an only needs to stick to it for three or four months. Come on, I will conquer it myself. If you are lonely, let's see what kind of person this Liu Yin is, who can turn the land of Yongliang upside down."

Jia Chong said worriedly: "If the clock is not adjusted, the army will return to help. I'm afraid Sima Hussars will be tighter here. The gains and losses in Guanzhong are greater than those in Yizhou. King Jin thinks twice."

Yizhou was a vested interest, how could Sima Zhao give up easily, and Liu Yin's surprise attack on Longxi was a bit intended to encircle Wei and save Zhao, how could Sima Zhao give in so easily.On this point, Sima Zhao is still very stubborn. He always thinks that Liu Yin is just suffering from ringworm and scabies, which is not enough. It hasn't changed.

He chuckled, and said: "I want to swallow my [-] troops in Guanzhong in one go, but Liu Yin doesn't have such a big appetite. Chang'an City is as solid as gold, and Chen Cangguan is as solid as a rock. I want to see, with his strength." With a piece of new equipment, can you take down my Guanzhong Sansuke who is far away from the dragon?"

With Sima Wang's retreat, the siege of Jieting was resolved without a fight.

Fu Zhu wanted to lead his troops in pursuit, but Liu Yin saw that the Wei army's banner was strict and the formation was neat, so he stopped Fu Zhu and said, "Sima Wang has a good pace in advancing and retreating, and his formation is strict. He is worthy of being a famous general of Wei. Since he retreated calmly, You must have someone behind, and it will be useless to pursue them." At that moment, an order was issued to all the troops not to pursue, and to set up camp at the old city of Jieting.

At this moment, Fu Qian saw the retreat of the Wei people on the mountain. At first, he thought it was a trick of the Wei people to lure the enemy, but he ignored it. After a while, he saw the flag of the Shu army flying. It turned out that the reinforcements of the Shu army had arrived, and the Shu army on the mountain Cheers were endless, Fu Qian took people up the mountain to meet Liu Yin in person.

Seeing Fu Qian covered in blood, Liu Yin couldn't help being deeply moved, and said: "Father-in-law guards the street pavilion and refuses Sima Wang. He has worked hard and deserved to be the first in this battle."

Fu Qian chuckled and said: "When Ma Su was defeated, he was defeated by the water source. Wenxuan used a clever trick to store water on the mountain to solve our army's worries. If the Wei people want to take down the street pavilion again, it is tantamount to a dream. To say this first One merit, none other than Wenxuan."

Liu Yin smiled slightly, Ma Di back then, if he could really let the soldiers drink water, why would he not be able to defend the street pavilion? difficulty.If it is said that Ma Di became the laughing stock of future generations only because of good luck, then I have to prove one thing here today. Ma Di’s strategy is not wrong. It's just the difference between being prepared and not being prepared.

The world often judges heroes by success or failure, and success or failure is often just a thin line between them.
