- A few days later, the army led by Yan Liang arrived in the north of Chenyang City and quickly launched an attack on the city.
The Wuxi barbarians are poorly equipped and not only cannot make sophisticated siege equipment, but they are also not good at defending the city. Yan Liang is well aware of the weaknesses of the barbarians.
According to Yan Liang's expectation, Shamoko's barbarian army will soon be unable to hold on under his powerful offensive and will abandon the city and flee south. At the same time, Yan Liang has already laid down a group of soldiers and horses, preparing to attack those who abandoned the city and fled south. Samoko conducts an ambush.
But what surprised Yan Liang was that the resistance of the barbarian army was quite tenacious, and they were quite sophisticated in terms of troop deployment and city defense tactics, and they were able to tenaciously block Yan Jun's several strong attacks.
Since the rebellion, Yan Liang felt a little pressure for the first time.
That evening, another siege failed.
Seeing arrows raining down from the top of the city and the barbarian army being fully defended, Yan Liang frowned slightly and had no choice but to order the troops to retreat.
Thousands of officers and soldiers of the Yan Army, facing the rain of arrows at the top of the city, slowly returned to their formation in an orderly manner. Yan Liang looked at the barbarian flags fluttering on the top of the city in the distance, and he couldn't help but feel deep suspicion in his heart.
In today's attack on the city, Yan Liang deliberately used a strategy of suspicion, pretending to attack the west city, but secretly used a large army to attack the old east city wall. Theoretically, with Shamoko's IQ, it would be difficult to guess Yan Liang's plan.
But the fact is that when Yan Liang's army launched an assault on the east city, a large number of barbarian troops suddenly appeared on the top of the city. They seemed to have been prepared for it and easily defused Yan's army's attack.
In this situation, it was as if Nashamoko's intelligence had suddenly increased several times overnight.
Looking at the top of the city from a distance, Yan Liang said in a deep voice: "Shamoke definitely doesn't have such wisdom. He must have received help from an expert. Send the order and go quickly to find out who is helping the barbarian."
After conveying the order, Yan Liang immediately ordered the retreat and decided not to continue attacking Chenyang City in the short term.
At the head of the city, Shamoke watched Yan Jun retreat from a distance. Feeling proud, he couldn't help laughing.
"Mr. Zhuge, you really have a good vision. Yan Liang really wants to attack Dongcheng. I wonder how you guessed it?" He was proud. Shamoko couldn't help but asked curiously.
Zhuge Jin slightly stroked his short beard. He smiled faintly and said: "That Yan Liang is very knowledgeable in the art of war. I saw that the city wall on the west side of Chenyang City is the thickest, but Yan Liang insisted on attacking the west city. I guessed that he must be attacking from east to west and wanted to attack the east city, so I could see through it. His treacherous plan."
After hearing Zhuge Jin's explanation, Shamoko suddenly realized it and couldn't help but sigh: "You guys are really cunning. You always like to use such deceitful means. If you weren't so cunning, Mr. Zhuge, I would have been fooled again." Didn¡¯t you catch Yan Liang¡¯s trick?¡±
Samoko is outspoken, and even praising Zhuge Jin sounds awkward.
Zhuge Jin didn't think it was strange, he just cupped his hands and said: "Jin just used a little trick, the king has given me the reward."
Shamoke was in a good mood. Suddenly he remembered something and said again: "Mr. Zhuge. Your Marquis Wu said that after he captured Jingzhou, he would grant Wuling County to us Wuxi people. What he said does not mean anything." Don¡¯t be fooling me too.¡±
When Zhuge Jin heard this, he said sternly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. My Lord has always been loyal and loyal. As long as Your Majesty can hold off Yan Liang and help My Lord capture Jingzhou and Wuling County, it will definitely belong to Your Majesty."
Having received Zhuge Jin¡¯s promise again, Shamoko was overjoyed. The fighting spirit is getting higher and higher.
That night, Shamoke, who was in great spirits, entertained Zhuge Jin with good wine and meat, and celebrated the success of today's defense of the city.
¡¡
For two days in a row, Yan Liang did not launch another attack on Chenyang City.
In the evening of that day, Xizuo finally delivered the detailed information about Shamoko to Yan Liang.
When Yan Liang saw the information, all his doubts were cleared up, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I also asked, how could Shamoko's head become so smart overnight? It turned out that Biyan'er sent Zhuge Jin to advise him."
The generals suddenly realized, Zhou Cang gritted his teeth and cursed: "It is indeed the Wu people who are causing trouble behind the scenes. If you ask me to catch Zhuge Jin, I will have to cut him into pieces to relieve my anger."
"Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Jin"
Yan Liang secretly thought about a name. He was no stranger to this Zhuge.
Historically, Zhuge Jin's contribution to Sun Quan mainly lies in his communication with Liu Bei. This person's talent in all aspects is actually far inferior to that of his younger brother Zhuge Liang. His political skills are acceptable, and in terms of strategic planning skills, he is only second-rate in the world. .
However, allAlthough Ge Jin was only a second-rate counselor, it was not a problem to assist Shamoko in defending the city. No wonder the barbarian army's ability to defend the city suddenly became so strong.
"Zhuge, it's Zhuge again. It seems that I owed people named Zhuge in my previous life. In this life, these Zhuge brothers are still haunting me and are determined to oppose me"
When Yan Liang was sighing with emotion, Ma Di also murmured: "With Zhuge Jin helping the barbarian army to defend the city, this battle will be a bit difficult to fight."
After all, Ma Su was still young and had some strategic insights, but when it came to this specific siege, he had no good strategies to implement.
There was nothing he could do for the time being, so Yan Liang could only order the meeting to be dismissed.
It was already night before he knew it, and Yan Liang couldn't sleep, thinking hard about how to break the city.
It¡¯s not that Yan Liang has no way to break the city. There are only seven thousand barbarians in the city. Yan Liang can completely mobilize his army from various roads and use his advantage in strength to forcefully break through Chenyang.
But the current problem is that Yan Liang¡¯s troops from all walks of life in the south are fighting against the Wu army, and the 10,000 naval troops in Xiangyang are preparing for the final decisive battle, and they cannot be mobilized.
This means that Yan Liang has reached the point where he has no troops at his disposal.
While I was thinking hard, the pro-army outside the tent suddenly came to report that Tian Feng had just arrived at the stronghold escorting tens of thousands of grain and grass.
Yan Liang perked up and hurriedly called Tian Feng to come in.
Now that Shamoke has Zhuge Jin to help him, a young strategist like Ma Su alone can no longer help Yan Liang solve this predicament. As early as a few days ago, Yan Liang had sent Tian Feng to Xiangyang in the name of escorting grain and grass. Wu Ling was transferred.
The curtain was lifted, and Tian Feng's naturally cold face came into view.
"Mr. Yuan Hao, you came at the right time." Yan Liang was in a good mood and welcomed Tian Feng in with a big smile.
The minister sat down, but before Yan Liang could speak, the top strategist in Hebei said in a questioning tone: "When I was in Linyuan, I heard that my lord had captured the barbarian leader Samoko twice, but released him twice. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but I really don¡¯t understand what my lord means by doing this?¡±
Yan Liang knew that Tian Feng would have such doubts, so he calmly told Tian Feng the strategy of "attacking the heart first".
After listening to Yan Liang¡¯s reasons, Tian Feng¡¯s stern expression appeared. Then it gradually subsided.
He thought for a long time. He nodded and said: "What a man who puts his heart first. My lord is far-sighted and far-sighted. He is truly extraordinary. However, this old man is a bit short-sighted."
Yan Liang smiled and sighed: "Yuan Hao, you don't have to be self-effacing. The so-called attacking the heart is easier said than done. No, I am in trouble now, otherwise I wouldn't let you, Yuan Hao. Come to Chenyang from afar."
Tian Feng had a strange look on his face. "I have already heard about my lord's plan to capture Samoko twice. From this, we can see that Samoko is not a difficult character to deal with. What does my lord mean by this?"
Yan Liang then told Tian Feng how Sun Quan sent Zhuge Jin to help Samoko, as well as how he had repeatedly attacked the city and failed.
Tian Feng suddenly realized that old face. Silence soon fell.
He stroked his beard slightly, frowned, and there was a complicated look in his eyes.
Yan Liang knew that his best counselor was using his brain at the moment. Thinking of ways to defeat the enemy for him.
After pondering for a long time, Tian Feng's frown suddenly relaxed.
Yan Liang¡¯s spirit suddenly lifted, he knew. This top strategist must have a clever plan to defeat the enemy.
"The barbarian army is defending the city. It's not easy to break. I have a plan here that may help my lord defeat the enemy." Tian Feng stroked his beard and said.
Yan Liang was overjoyed and said happily: "I would like to hear the details."
Tian Feng took his time and explained his plan.
After hearing this, Yan Liang couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth, "Sir, this plan is really ingenious and very good. Let's do it like this. Let Zhuge Jin see what it means to be a clever plan."
¡¡
Early the next morning, Yan Jun broke out of camp.
The army of more than 10,000 people broke out of camp and went down the Yuan River. They retreated fifteen miles to the stronghold.
The next day, Yan Jun broke out of camp again and retreated another fifteen miles to break up camp.
At the beginning, Zhuge Jin thought that Yan Liang was a trick to lure the enemy, so he asked Shamoko to guard Chen Yang strictly and not to pursue him.
But on the third day, Zhuge Jin received news that Yan Liang had withdrawn his camp for the third time. After three withdrawals, he had retreated to a distance of forty-five miles from Chenyang.
At the same time, captured barbarians began to escape from Yan's army one after another. These captured barbarians brought back more to Samoa.?Excited about the news.
According to those prisoners, news about Fankou was circulating among the Yan army. It was said that the Wu army was in a hurry to attack Fankou, and Gan Ning and others were almost unable to hold on, so Yan Liang had to withdraw from the siege of Chenyang and hurry up. He returned to Fankou to rescue him.
After hearing the news, Zhuge Jin couldn't sit still.
If the news is true, then if Zhuge Jin smoothly withdraws his troops to rescue Fankou, the imminent victory of Sun Quan's main force will be wiped out. In this case, Zhuge Jin has failed Sun Quan's trust.
After several weighings, Zhuge Jin persuaded Shamoko, led his army north from Chenyang, and began to pursue Yan Na.
But without being convinced that Yan Liang was indeed eager to withdraw his troops, Zhuge Jin did not dare to let Shamoko pursue him. He only asked the barbarian army to follow Yan Jun at a distance of fifteen miles and observe Yan Jun's situation first.
It was afternoon, and seven thousand barbarian troops arrived at an abandoned camp.
This is already the sixth abandoned camp left by Yan Jun. Further north is Yuanling City. Once Yan Jun successfully retreats into this city, Yan Liang only needs to keep one capable general and lead thousands of troops. They guarded the city and blocked the barbarian army's northward route.
Whether to launch a pursuit immediately or continue to follow and observe, Zhuge Jin must make a decision as soon as possible.
"Mr. Zhuge, Yuanling City is just ahead. If we don't pursue it, we won't have a chance." Shamoke, who came on horseback, shouted anxiously to Zhuge Jin.
Zhuge Jin ignored him and just stared at the ground attentively, mumbling numbers.
Samoko said in confusion: "Mr. Zhuge, what are you counting?"
"I'm counting the military stoves left by Yan Jun." Zhuge Jin replied casually, with a sneer on his lips, "There are 30% more military stoves than the previous battalion, Yan Liang, you want to hide this from me, Zhuge Jin, It¡¯s not that easy¡¡± - Didn't finish reading?
