The last three kingdoms

Chapter 743

Compared with the three passes that are inherently dangerous, the Wuzhai, headed by Niushou Village, does not have that extremely dangerous terrain. The biggest feature of the Wuzhai is that the Wuzhai is connected to each other, interlocking and leaning on each other. At the time of the stronghold, all four strongholds are available.

Luo Xian set the attack time at night, which is obviously much more difficult than during the day. The terrain between the five villages is complex, all of which are winding and winding paths, criss-crossing. Even if you walk such a road during the day, you will get lost. It only got worse.

However, Luo Xian has the detailed map provided by Ah Jian, and has a preliminary understanding of the situation in Wuzhai. Even though the road is not easy, he will not get lost if he follows the map.

Now Luo Xian's biggest reliance is that the Shu army occupies an absolute superior force. With one infantry army and three cavalry armies, the Shu army has a strength of 4. According to the information provided by A Jian, the guards in Wuzhai Niushou Village, which has the largest army, only has 3000 people, the other four villages have only about 1000 people each, and the total strength of Wuzhai Village is only 8000 people. Advantage.

In view of the deployment of the Di Army, Luo Xian decided to adopt a multi-pronged approach to attack Niu Shou Village, Horseshoe Village, Alpaca Village, Jiming Village and Langtu Village at the same time, so that they could not look at each other from head to tail.The specific arrangement is that Lu Xun, the guardian of the Suzaku army, led 5000 people from the left battalion of the Suzaku army to attack the Horseshoe Village; Jiming Village, Luo Xi, the guard of the Yong'an Army, led 5000 people from the Yong'an Left Camp to attack the Langtu Village. The 5000 people in the right camp are the general support of the five roads.

This time when the troops were divided, Luo Xian completely disrupted the formation of the various armies. Except for Wang Qi who led 1 people to attack Niu Shou Village, the other four troops only used a battalion of 5000 people. Army, these four groups of troops also occupy an absolute advantage. The five-to-one comparison of forces makes the attack of the Shu army appear to be more than capable.

On the contrary, the 1-man Suzaku Right Battalion and Baihu You Battalion led by Wang Qi attacked Niu Shou Village, the head of the five villages, with only three times the strength of the opponent, and Niu Shou Village, as the head of the Five Villages, was its hub, so The task on Wang Qi's shoulders is more important than that of the other four generals.

Luo Xian, as the support envoy of the Five Routes, also has no easy duties. As the commander-in-chief, Luo Xian must coordinate and command the Army of the Five Routes, and at the same time be responsible for emergency support. In the event of defeat, Luo Xian would lead the army to support him, traveling between the five villages overnight, the arduousness of the task is self-evident.

The generals took orders and made arrangements for returning to camp.It can be seen that the generals are generally in high spirits, looking forward to the upcoming night battle, full of confidence and high fighting spirit.

In fact, in the eyes of the generals, there seems to be no suspense in this battle. After all, the Shu army has an absolute superiority in strength. With 4 people against 7000 people, this kind of battle can almost be won with eyes closed.If there is any difficulty, the only thing that worries the generals of the Shu army is the specific terrain of the Wuzhai. More or less affected the combat confidence of some generals.

But in general, the mood of the Shu army is generally high. This has a great relationship with the repeated victories since the battle with the Di people. A streak of victories will always fill the soldiers with confidence. It cannot shake the determination of the soldiers of the Shu army to win.

After the generals left, Luo Xian said to Wang Qi, "Captain Wang, Calamity Niu Shou Village is the head of the five villages of the Di people. Only the king and the governor will lead the troops to fight, and there will be a chance of winning."

Wang Qi said with a smile: "How dare the general refuse to follow the order of Dudu Luo. Please rest assured, Dudu of Shu. The general will definitely take Niu Shou Village and live up to the Dudu's expectations."

Luo Xiandao: "The king's governor must not underestimate the enemy in this battle. The man guarding Niu Shou Village is a fierce general named Li Rulong under Qi Wannian's tent. He only said that this man is good at using a big axe, and has unstoppable courage. , Qi Wannian appointed him to guard Niu Shou Village and also lead Wu Zhai, which shows that Qi Wannian attaches great importance to Li Rulong. According to information and maps, Niu Shou Village is adjacent to Juejian on three sides, and only one side is connected to the road. Large casualties, especially in night battles, require great care."

Wang Qidao: "Don't worry, Dudu Luo. I have been in Longxi for many years, and I still know something about the situation in Gushe Mountain. Niu Shou Village is known as the head of the Five Villages, but it also needs the support of the Four Villages. Now our army has Send four groups of people to cut off the connection between the remaining four villages and Niu Shou Village, and Niu Shou Village is isolated and helpless, so it is not difficult to break through."

Wang Qi has been the prefect of Tianshui County for many years. Although he has never been to Gushe Mountain in person, he still knows the situation in Beidi County. The Di people have lived in Gushe Mountain for many years. Repeatedly going south to plunder, constantly harassing the counties of Yongzhou, and posing a great threat to the safety of Yongzhou.

As the prefect of Tianshui, Wang Qi's duty is to protect the environment and the people, but with his strength as the prefect of a county, he wants to eradicate the scourge of Diren, but he is powerless.In those years, in the Yongliang area, Cao Wei’s external targets were mainly the Shu Han. Although the Qiang and Hu invaded repeatedly, including the Di people, the Cao Wei court never regarded them as a serious problem, but only as a worry about scabies.

The Cao Wei court did nothing, but Wang Qi wanted to kill the enemy, but he was powerless. At best, he could only protect the environment and the people, and prevent the Di people from invading Tianshui County.And now, after Liu Yin entered Yongliang, he finally dealt a heavy blow to the Qiang Hu, and Wang Qi also saw the hope of recovering the northern land and eliminating the Hu.

In the contest with the Qianghu, the Shu army played triumphantly all the way, and successively wiped out several Qianghu forces that had endangered Yongliang for many years, such as the Haosan tribe of the Xiongnu, the Magelong tribe of the Malan Qiang, and the Hu Penghu tribe of Lushui. At the same time, the Qiwannian tribe of the Di tribe, the last force of the Qianghu in the north, was also chasing fiercely. Wang Qi was fortunate enough to participate in this war. Wang Qi was very happy to realize his long-cherished wish for many years.

This time he took on the task of attacking Niu Shou Village, he naturally did his part, and Wang Qi is also full of confidence. This battle may be a key battle to determine whether the Di people can continue to exist on this land. Wang Qi can be fortunate enough to come He was very pleased to be the Terminator.
