Mi Han

Chapter 544

Under the starry night, Jia Kui led his army to Xiyangju, dozens of miles away from Wancheng.

After being so close to Wancheng, Jia Kui instead ordered the entire army to suspend its advance.

A few days ago, Jia Kui suddenly received a request for help from Sima Yi.

In the document, Sima Yi told Jia Kui that Zhang Fei led his army to surprise Wancheng through Nieyang, and Wancheng was in danger.

And he is already leading the army to Wancheng, but in order to ensure that Wancheng is safe, Sima Yi hopes that Jia Kui can lead the army to help.

After seeing the document, Jia Kui responded without thinking.

Wancheng can't afford to make mistakes, and this is also true for him.

So almost on the second day, Jia Kui quickly gathered nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses, and rushed towards Wancheng.

Yuzhou is adjacent to Wancheng, and the roads are very spacious and flat, so Jia Kui approached Wancheng in a short time under the condition of speeding up the march.

But when he was not far from Wancheng, even though he was still very anxious about the safety of Wancheng, Jia Kui, like Sima Yi, chose not to continue to advance aggressively.

Jia Kui was worried about being surrounded by Zhang Fei.

Jia Kui first led his army to station at Xiyangju, dozens of miles away from Wancheng, and then he sent many scouts to investigate the situation outside Wancheng.

For Qingqi, the distance of tens of miles can only be round-trip in one day.

On the second day, Jia Kui learned the general military situation inside and outside Wancheng.

After learning that Wancheng was still safe, Jia Kui couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

But when he learned that Sima Yi was surrounded by the Han army, Jia Kui couldn't help becoming anxious again.

Jia Kui knew that the elite soldiers led by Sima Yi were the new force of Wancheng.

Once Sima Yi's Wei army is taken by Zhang Fei, it will not only deal a huge blow to the morale of Wancheng's defenders, but also weaken Wancheng's defense force to a large extent.

It is good that he can lead reinforcements to assist Wancheng, but Cao Wei's military laws are strict, and it is impossible for him to let Yuzhou soldiers stationed in Wancheng for a long time.

After all, the southern part of Yuzhou borders Jiangdong.

Jia Kui immediately began to think about countermeasures.

After synthesizing various information, Jia Kui finally came up with a solution.

Jia Kui summoned a trusted general and said to him, "You immediately lead a cavalry army and detour to the west of Wancheng to attack the grain road of the bandit army."

Part of the reason why Jia Kui was able to come up with this method was that Sima Yi had mentioned in his previous letter that Zhang Fei's surprise attack from far away meant that the food road was definitely not smooth.

It's just that after listening to Jia Kui's words, the confidant general couldn't help persuading Jia Kui because he was afraid of Zhang Fei's reputation.

The Confidant Department believes that there should be no further dangers at the moment, and it is best to spread the news of Sima Yi's entrapment. After the reinforcements from other states arrive, they will join forces to press down on Wancheng.

If Sima Yi heard the remarks of his trusted general, I don't know if he would thank him.

But it is unavoidable that the thoughts of the trusted generals are actually the thoughts of most of the generals in Jia Kui's army.

But fortunately Jia Kui, as the pillar of Cao Wei, his mind is still clear.

After Jia Kui heard what his trusted general said, he immediately frowned and shouted:

"General Annan's soldiers are outside, and the road is blocked inside. If you advance, you cannot fight, and if you retreat, you cannot return. It is at stake.

Zhang Fei knew that there was no army behind him, so he dared to besiege him openly.

Now we have advanced rapidly and arrived at Xiyangju by surprise, which Zhang Fei could not have expected.

Moreover, our army has a large number of cavalry, which is suitable for attacking the rebels' food routes on the plains. This is to use our own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses. Why should we be afraid?

After you successfully harass the bandit army's food road, I will approach Wancheng with great fanfare. The so-called first move is to win his heart. When Zhang Fei sees our army coming to help, he will definitely have the heart to retreat.

If we wait for the arrival of reinforcements from other states, if Zhang Feiruo destroys General Annan's troops under the wasted opportunity, then what is the use of having more troops! "

After waking up the trusted general with a strong drink, Jia Kui immediately asked the trusted general to act immediately.

And after the cronies will leave, Jia Kui is not idle.

He then issued other military orders to other generals.

After all the arrangements were over, Jia Kui sent an emergency document to the surrounding counties and counties in Wancheng.

Including Luoyang.

Zhang Fei, who had been fighting fiercely for nearly a day, took off his blood-stained armor and walked into the big tent.

In his fifties, although his bravery remained the same as before, his physical strength had declined significantly.

When he was young, let alone fighting for a day, he would not feel tired even if he fought continuously for a day and a night.

But now it's clearly not.

However, although he felt physically tired, Zhang Fei's mental strength did not decrease at all.

After simply washing off the blood stains on his face with hot water, Zhang Fei ordered Mi Zhong, who was at the side, to pass down the military order, and the whole army will continue to prepare to storm the Wei army camp tomorrow.

Since he stepped into the camp in person a few days ago, Zhang Fei has been leading the Han army to storm the Wei army camp.

His dance camp that day was also to further lower the morale of the Wei army.

But I have to say that Sima Yi does have a way of guarding the camp.

Although the Wei army occupied a favorable location, the Han army could not fully launch the offensive.

But being able to keep the Wei army's camp as solid as it was in the past few days under the condition of low morale also reflects Sima Yi's extraordinary talent.

In Zhang Fei's mind, the Wei army camp not far away had become a turtle shell.

But before Mi Zhong left, Guan Xing opened the curtain and walked in.

Guan Xing was weak, so Zhang Fei did not arrange for him to go into battle to kill the enemy, but let him be in charge of intelligence exchanges in the army.

This arrangement is also in line with Guan Xing's talent.

After all, although Guan Xing's martial arts is not good due to physical reasons, his brain is still very good sometimes.

Seeing Guan Xing coming in with a serious face, Zhang Fei asked, "What happened?"

Facing Zhang Fei's questioning, Guan Xing told Zhang Fei all the information he found out.

The reason why Guan Xinghui looked solemn was that neither of these two pieces of information was good news for the Han army.

The first piece of information was about the enemy's attack on the grain road.

The second piece of information is that, according to reports from the scouts, a large number of bandits appeared outside Sunset Gathering.

After learning these two pieces of information, Zhang Fei's face also darkened.

He told Mi Zhong to stop, not to convey the military order for now.

What Zhang Fei was most worried about happened.

The reason why he has been storming the Wei army's camp for the past few days is to eat Sima Yi's Wei army as soon as possible before the Wei army's reinforcements arrive.

However, Sima Yi's tenacity and the speed of the Wei army's reinforcements were somewhat beyond Zhang Fei's expectations.

Compared with the Wei army that appeared at Sunset Gathering, Zhang Fei was actually more worried about the Wei army's cavalry that was disturbing his own food routes.

At the beginning, the cavalry of the Wei army may have only attacked on a small scale, but after discovering that no major obstacles have been encountered, they will definitely increase the scale of the harassment.

At that time, the food road of the Han army will be in danger.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fei couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that Sima Yi's little turtle can't be caught and stewed in soup.

However, it is not bad to win Jiyang almost without bloodshed in this battle.

Thorny Yang is to Wancheng what a tiger prison is to Luoyang. With Thorn Yang in hand, he will completely occupy the strategic initiative in Jingzhou area.

From this point of view, he has benefited a lot from this battle.

After sighing, Zhang Fei issued a new military order to Mi Zhong:

"Starting tomorrow, arrange for our troops to withdraw one after another."

A small chapter today.

I'm busy at the end of the month, hope you understand~
