Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Sima Yi speaks calmly and has a calm demeanor. This calm temperament is comparable to Zhuge Liang.

    After a few words of conversation, Liu Bei admired Sima Yi endlessly, and his words showed that he wished he could meet him earlier.

    Zhuge Liang didn't say a word, he just waved his feather fan and secretly observed Sima Yi from the side.

    "Zhongda is here now, I guess he must have taught me something." After the polite words, Liu Bei brought the topic onto the right track.

    Sima Yi cupped his hands and said, "Don't take your advice seriously. Now our Hanoi County is under the jurisdiction of the envoy. As Yi is a native of Hanoi, he is also under the jurisdiction of the envoy. It is natural for him to do his best to help the envoy."

    Sima Yi¡¯s words represent that the Sima family in Hanoi recognized Liu Bei as their new master, and the Sima family will be loyal to his new master.

    Liu Bei was overjoyed. With the Sima family taking the lead, the rest of the Hebei clan who were still waiting would definitely wait and see.

    Thinking of this, Liu Bei looked at Sima Yi with admiration and praised him very much.

    After some more polite remarks, Sima Yi said: "Yi heard that the envoy commanded an army of 60,000 to 70,000 people and had been in Jixian for a long time, but he didn't know why he didn't attack Jicheng for a long time?"

    "It's hard to describe in one sentence." Liu Bei sighed with emotion, and then explained the problem of how Yuan Tan used Qingqi to copy his grain route.

    After hearing this, Sima Yi smiled lightly and said, "If that's the case, why don't you mobilize the cavalry to patrol the grain road? In this way, you can break the disturbance of Yuan Tan's light cavalry."

    "This government is suffering from the lack of cavalry to restrain Yuan Tan's light cavalry." Liu Bei sighed helplessly again.

    A strange color flashed in Sima Yi's eyes, as if he had expected Liu Bei's answer, and said: "Don't worry, your Majesty. In fact, Yi is here to send you a cavalry."

    Hearing these words, Zhuge Liang next to him was shocked, his eyes suddenly showed surprise, he seemed to be quite surprised by Sima Yi's Haikou.

    Liu Bei, on the other hand, was overjoyed and thought that he was worried about the cavalry. Sima Yi was going to send him a cavalry. Wouldn't it be a timely help, which would solve his urgent need.

    However, after a moment of surprise, Liu Bei fell into doubt again.

    Although the Sima family is a powerful family in Hanoi, with huge family power and more than billions of wealth, there is no powerful family in the world who can raise a cavalry force that can compete with Yuan Tan's cavalry.

    You must know that Yuan Tan¡¯s Youzhou cavalry numbered at least five thousand.

    "Zhongda, do you really want to send me a cavalry?" Liu Bei didn't believe it.

    Sima Yi said sternly: "How dare Yi lie in front of the envoy?"

    "Then where did this cavalry come from?" The more solemn Sima Yi was, the more suspicious Liu Bei became. He really couldn't figure out how the young man in front of him could conjure thousands of cavalry with just a raise of his hands.

    Sima Yi smiled slightly, with a calm look on his face, and immediately wanted to tell the truth.

    But just before Sima Yi spoke, Zhuge Liang's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he was reminded by Sima Yi and suddenly realized something.

    "If Liang's prediction is true, the cavalry Zhongda pointed to should be Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army." Zhuge Liang said before Sima Yi could.

    Sima Yi frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied because Zhuge Liang stole the limelight, but the displeasure disappeared in an instant, leaving almost no trace.

    "It turns out that Mr. Kong Ming also thought that, yes, the person Yi was referring to was Zhang Yan of Montenegro." Sima Yi agreed with Zhuge Liang's guess very calmly.

    "Zhang Yan" At this time, Liu Bei was both excited and surprised.

    Sima Yi was about to speak again, but Zhuge Liang was the first to say: "That Zhang Yan was originally a Black Mountain Yellow Turban, and he had many Bingzhou cavalry under his command. This person had always been at odds with the Yuan family. When Yuan Shao destroyed Gongsun Zan, Zhang Yan personally led his army to support Gongsun Zan.  , but it was a pity that he was defeated by Yuan Shao."

    "What Mr. Kong Ming said is absolutely true, so Yi" While Zhuge Liang was swallowing his saliva, Sima Yi wanted to add a few words.

    As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhuge Liang added: "So Liang thinks that Zhang Yan is the mortal enemy of the Yuan family. Why don't my lord send an eloquent person to Heishan to recruit Zhang Yan to surrender? If Zhang Yan can come back, my lord can add a Bingzhou cavalry.  It will be easy to deal with Yuan Tan's Youyan cavalry then."

    After talking eloquently, Zhuge Liang offered Liu Bei a strategy to defeat Yuan Tan's cavalry.

    Although Zhuge Liang did not know the distribution of forces in Hebei well before, this strategy was inspired by Sima Yi and he came up with it in time.

    Zhuge Liang presented all his plans in one breath. Sima Yi frowned secretly, but he could only cup his hands and say, "What Mr. Kong Ming said is exactly what Yi came to do this time.", If you want to propose a strategy to the envoy, I think it will be able to help the envoy.  "

    While speaking, Sima Yi glanced at Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan slightly, his expression was calm and calm, not at all uncomfortable.

    At this time, Liu Bei felt as if he had suddenly realized something, and his whole person was in high spirits.

    "This plan of the military advisor is really brilliant. If Zhang Yan comes back and uses the Bingzhou cavalry to fight against the Youyan cavalry, I will see what other tricks Yuan Tan can come up with."

    Liu Bei was so excited that he immediately wrote a letter and ordered Sun Qian to take his handwritten letter to Montenegro to recruit Zhang Yan.

    Zhuge Liang looked calm, with a bit of pride flashing between his brows, as if he was proud of his achievements.

    Sima Yi, on the other hand, seemed a little embarrassed. He clearly wanted to offer his advice and wanted to refute Liu Bei's appreciation, but he didn't want to give Zhuge Liang the advantage.

    Sima Yi had another hard time saying that Zhuge Liang was the one who made Zhuge Liang so responsive. Moreover, if he hadn't deliberately betrayed him a few times before, he wouldn't have given Zhuge Liang a chance to be inspired.

    With Zhuge Liang present, Sima Yi couldn't help but feel like there was a light on his back and he felt uneasy all over.

    At this time, the pro-army troops outside the tent came to report that the food and grass sent from Zhuo County had arrived at the camp.

    When Liu Bei heard that the food and fodder had arrived, he said: "Commander, now that the food and fodder has arrived, please ask the military advisor to distribute it and make some calculations."

    Zhuge Liang not only made plans for Liu Bei, but also entrusted Liu Bei with military affairs such as grain and grass. Now that the grain and grass have arrived, Zhuge Liang is needed to take charge.

    Zhuge Liang had no choice but to stand up and say goodbye, and retreated.

    Just before he left the tent, behind him, Liu Bei had already taken Sima Yi's hand and said with a smile: "Zhongda, this plan of yours is really a timely help to my government. I really fell in love with you Zhongda at first sight.  We will sleep together on the same bed tonight, and I will have a long and thorough talk with Zhongda about the world."

    "Then it would be better to obey orders than to be respectful."

    "Ha ha¡ª¡ª"

    The familiar conversation behind him was also experienced by Zhuge Liang back then. Now, Liu Bei gave Sima Yi this "like a fish in water" courtesy.

    The moment before exiting the tent, Zhuge Liang had a hint of fear between his brows.

    ¡­¡­

    Yizhou.

    After half a month of rest, Yan Liangqin led an army of 60,000 from Chengdu and marched northward in a mighty manner.

    A few days later, Yan Liang's army arrived at Jiameng Pass and joined Yan Yan's troops who had been stationed here for several months.

    At this time, Yan Liang's total military strength in northern Sichuan had reached 80,000.

    The military strength increased greatly, and powerful generals such as Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Ma Dai, Pang De, Zhang He, Yan Yan, Zhang Ren, Li Yan, Pan Zhang, Zhu Huan, etc. were also gathered here.

    Yan Liang's army gathered soldiers from the three states of Jing, Yang and Yi. This mixed army could be called a luxurious army.

    Yan Liang¡¯s soldiers are elite, and Cao Cao¡¯s strength is not weak either.

    Xu Chu, Xia Houyuan, Li Dian, Yue Jin, Cao Xiu, Xu Huang, Li Tong, Lu Qian and other Cao camp's fierce generals were on the front line. The elite Guanzhong army, plus the tens of thousands of Hanzhong troops who had surrendered, were Cao Cao's troops.  There are also eighty or ninety thousand people.

    Yan Liang had Pang Tong, Fazheng, and Zhang Song as counselors, and Cao Cao had Guo Jia, Xun You, and Liu Ye as counselors.

    On the front line of Jiameng Pass, all the elites of Cao and Yan's armies were gathered. The two sides were well matched.

    Cao Cao pacified Hanzhong quickly. For more than half a year, his soldiers were in a state of rest and recuperation most of the time, so they had the advantage in physical strength.

    Yan Junlian fought against Ma Chao, Liu Zhang and Meng Huo, which consumed a lot of physical strength. He only rested for just half a month, which was not enough to restore his energy. In this regard, he was at a disadvantage.

    However, Yan Liang also has his own advantages, which is the geographical location.

    After the army arrived at Jiameng, Yan Liang used Pang Tong's strategy to defend Guancheng without fighting.

    Yan Liang's purpose is very clear, which is to consume Cao Jun's elite soldiers and accumulate his own strength. When Cao Cao's division is under the old city, he can turn the defense into an attack.

    When the two armies were confronting each other at Jiameng Pass, Cao Zhen's 10,000 Cao army from Nanyang also invaded Nanyang from Shangyong.

    At this time, the five thousand reinforcements led by Lu Xun had also arrived in Nanyang and joined Wenpin's troops.

    These two young men with commanding talents started a fierce battle in the west of Nanyang, and it was hard to tell the winner.

    On the front line in northern Sichuan, Cao Cao seemed to realize that it was difficult to shake Yan Liang's defense with Yu Jiameng alone.

    So, at Guo Jia's suggestion, Cao Cao sent Xu Huang to lead 10,000 elite troops to attack Sanba, threatening theThreaten Yanliang's right wing and cut off the connection between Yizhou and Jingzhou.

    Yan Liang also responded tit-for-tat and sent Li Yan to lead 10,000 Sichuan troops to block Xu Huang's attack.

    In this way, the two armies were facing each other on the front line in northern Sichuan, and they were in a stalemate. Unknowingly, they had been facing off for more than a month.

    On this day in late autumn, Yan Liang received the latest information from the north:

    Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Army surrendered to Liu Bei and helped Liu Bei defeat Yuan Tan Youyan's cavalry. The defeated Yuan Tan abandoned Ji County and fled to the Yuyang area.

    "With the fall of Jixian, Yuan Tan's situation is over. He will be destroyed by Liu Bei in less than a month. It seems that we can't delay it any longer. We must defeat Cao Cao and capture Hanzhong." Pang Tong stroked his beard and frowned.

    "Cao Cao's army has gathered in front of the pass. If we cannot repel Cao Cao, our army will not be able to leave the pass and go north to seize the initiative to capture Hanzhong. However, the terrain in front of the pass is narrow and is not conducive to fierce fighting. It is not easy to force Cao Cao's army back.  That's it." Zhang Song sighed.

    Several counselors were racking their brains, and Yan Liang was staring at the map. For a moment, it seemed difficult to come up with a comprehensive strategy to retreat from the enemy.

    There was silence in the lobby.

    At this moment, Deng Ai, who had been listening to the sidelines, suddenly said: "Father, I do have a plan. Maybe I can force Cao's army to retreat, but I don't know if it is feasible." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature,  The novel is better and updated faster!)
