- On the east bank of the Fen River, on the main road, endless troops were advancing rapidly.
The imperial flag of Da Chu flutters in the rustling autumn wind.
Yan Liang sat on a red rabbit horse and galloped away.
Two hundred thousand troops have already marched from Pingyang City. Yan Liang's goal is naturally to wipe out the Jin Kingdom with one force and achieve the goal of unifying the world.
"Report~~" the scout rushed over, "Thirty miles ahead is Yong'an County. The Jin army is stationed in Yong'an and has not continued to retreat north."
Yan Liang reined in his horse and glanced far north, a trace of doubt appearing in his eagle eyes.
"Quickly tell Xu Yuanzhi to come see me." Yan Liang shouted with a whip.
In the previous period, Xu Shu led his army to Pubanjin to resist the attack of Xianbei Ube. Now that Sima Yi's main force has fled, the Ube-Xianbei army naturally did not dare to fight again and hurriedly retreated north.
After Xu Shuhe retreated from the barbarians, he left an army to guard Pubanjin and led an army to join Yan Liang's main force at night.
Xu Shu and Zhang Liao had guarded Hedong for many years and knew the terrain of Bingzhou very well. Now that Yan Liang was destroying Jin, they naturally wanted to take Xu Shu with them.
Not long after, Xu Shu rushed up from behind.
"Yuanzhi, what is the terrain of Yong'an County?" Yan Liang asked.
Xu Shu thought for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Yong'an is only a small county, its city is not strong, and the surrounding terrain is quite open. Only after passing Yong'an County and entering Xihe County, the terrain will become more and more difficult. The more dangerous it is.¡±
Xu Shu¡¯s answer made Yan Liang¡¯s suspicion become even more intense.
He then asked: "Just now the scouts reported back that Sima Yi had stationed his army in Yong'an and showed that he did not intend to escape again and would stick to Yong'an. Yuan Zhi, what do you think?"
"Sima Yi wants to stick to Yong'an?" Xu Shu looked a little surprised, "Sima Yi is extremely cunning. How can he choose to fight against water before he has nowhere to go?"
Yan Liang nodded slightly. Wise men saw the same thing. Xu Shu was indeed suspicious of Sima Yi's move just like him.
"Furthermore, even if Sima Yi wants to fight his last battle, he should choose a place where the terrain is favorable to him, and it shouldn't be Yong'an." Xu Shu added.
"Well, that's what Yuan Zhi thought. As I guessed, Sima Yi is as cunning as a wolf and should not be underestimated." Yan Liang nodded, agreeing with Xu Shu's analysis.
Then, he asked: "In Yuan Zhi's opinion, should I pursue you now or should I not?"
Xu Shu thought for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "I think that your majesty should send a light cavalry army to approach Yong'an under your majesty's banner to see what tricks Sima Yi can come up with. If he really has a plan, our divine cavalry can immediately withdraw from the marriage." . Let Sima Yi fail."
Yan Liang was convinced and determined to adopt Xu Shu's strategy.
At that moment, Yan Liang called Zhao Yun and ordered him to lead 10,000 gods on horseback to continue northward. He also asked the knights to hold more flags to create a trend of the Chu army heading north.
Zhao Yun led his army to leave, but Yan Liang asked the army to stay and wait to find out what Sima Yi's intentions were. It's not too late to send troops in again.
¡¡
Two days later, Yongan City.
Sima Yi frowned deeply. Standing at the top of the city, a pair of eagle eyes stared coldly at the south.
Looking into the distance, I saw vague dust and mist rising from the south. Anyone with a little knowledge of military affairs would know at a glance that there must be cavalry galloping towards them.
Sima Yi had a sneer on his lips, and a hint of mystery flashed in his eyes.
Not long after, the scouts rushed back to the city, and the information they brought back confirmed Sima Yi's guess.
The scouts reported that tens of thousands of Chu troops were rushing towards Yong'an County along the east bank of the Fen River. Judging from the Chu army's flag formation, it was estimated that there were at least 70,000 to 80,000 troops.
"Seventy to eighty thousand people should be the main front force of the Chu army. Your Majesty, Yan Thief has indeed been fooled." Jia Kui looked delighted and said to Sima Yi excitedly.
Sima Yi sneered, waved his hand and said: "According to my decree, the whole army will leave the city and retreat to the north."
The decree was passed down, and the Jin army stationed in Yong'an County, which had long been armored and prepared, hurriedly came out of the north gate and retreated towards Xihe County.
Sima Yi followed the army out of the city, galloped for more than ten miles, and stopped on the east bank of the Fen River.
At this time, a camp was stationed along the river bank, and nearly 5,000 Jin troops were sweating profusely by the Fen River.
"Send an order to Wang Ling and order him to take action immediately to break open the Fen River embankment for me." Sima Yi shouted sternly.
The scouts rushed out and headed straight to the Jin camp by the river.
Wang Ling had been waiting in the camp for a long time. He led more than 10,000 Jin troops and spent several daysOver time, the Fenhe River embankment was dug loose by a hundred feet.
Now receiving Sima Yi's order, Wang Ling supervised his soldiers, five thousand men went into battle, and in a short time the river embankment was completely broken.
As soon as the river embankment opened, the rolling Fenshui water surged out, quickly overflowing the camp and heading downstream towards Yong'an County.
At this time, Wang Ling had led the troops digging the embankment and retreated to the north to join Sima Yi's main force of the Jin army.
Because the terrain here is lower in the south and higher in the north, the Fen River water that broke out of its embankment swept straight downstream, but could not threaten the Jin army that had withdrawn upstream.
Sima Yi stood on his horse at a high place, looking at the surging flood in the distance, with a sinister smile on his lips, unable to suppress the pride in his heart.
"Your Majesty's plan is really brilliant. The Chu army thought they could catch up with our army, but they never expected that they would be flooded. Yan Thief really shot himself in the foot. Your Majesty is wise."
Wang Ling was extremely excited. He admired Sima Yi in every possible way, but looked down upon Yan Liang with utmost contempt.
Sima Yi smiled and said nothing, proudly proud.
He garrisoned troops in Yong'an, pretending to be in a last-ditch position, in order to lure the Chu army to pursue him. However, he secretly sent Wang Ling to secretly dig the river embankment upstream.
The reason why Sima Yi broke the embankment upstream was to hide the Chu army from their eyes and ears, so as to induce the Chu army to come forward with confidence.
Although the Chu army is now close, he only needs to go a few miles north from Yong'an to use the flood to cut off the Chu army's pursuit. He can also use the flood to severely damage the Chu army that was caught off guard.
Although it is now the golden autumn, the water potential of various river systems in the north is already weak, but the Fenhe River is the largest river in Bingzhou. The river in Yong'an is slightly higher than the ground. Once the river bank breaks, the potential of the flood cannot be underestimated. watch for.
Now, Sima Yi's plan has been completed. He is not in a hurry to escape now. He just stays on the upper reaches and waits for a good show of flooding the Chu army.
"When the flood comes, the people of Yong'an County will suffer. What a pity" Jia Kui sighed a little.
Wang Ling snorted coldly: "For the sake of the overall situation, it is inevitable to make sacrifices. Prime Minister Jia is not a woman, right?"
There was a hidden sarcasm in Wang Ling's words. Jia Kui didn't say much and just sneered.
The floodwaters rolled southward and soon reached Yong'an County.
At this moment, people in nearby villages. They didn't know that the Jin army was digging embankments and still plowing in the fields, unaware that the danger was coming.
As a result, people in many villages near Yongan had no time to avoid water. All were flooded.
The rushing water quickly hit Yong'an County. Although the water was only knee-deep, it was enough to submerge the entire county into a puddle of water.
The flood overflowed Yong'an. The water was slightly weaker, but it still continued to roll downstream fiercely.
At this moment. The more than 10,000 Chu army Shenxingqi led by Zhao Yun had just reached a few miles into Yong'an City.
"General, there seems to be a flood ahead!" the scout rushed over and shouted.
¡°Hush~~¡± Zhao Yun reined in his horse. Feeling suspicious, he rode his horse in front of the army and raised his eyes to look carefully into the distance.
Sure enough, it¡¯s a few miles ahead. The muddy yellow water was overwhelmingly rolling towards our army.
This situation. But the officers and soldiers of the Chu army were all surprised when they saw it.
"Now that the rainy season has passed, how could there be a sudden flood in Bingzhou?" Zhao Yun was suspicious, and suddenly his expression changed, "Could it be that Sima Yi actually dug the Fen River!"
The thought flashed across the river, and Zhao Yun immediately concluded that there was no way such a flood could be caused except by Sima Yi digging embankments.
It was then that he suddenly understood that Sima Yi's garrison in Yong'an and his pretense of a last-ditch battle were not intended to defend the city to the death, but to induce the Chu army to attack and flood the army.
"What a Sima Yi, he is really cunning and insidious." Zhao Yun couldn't help but cursed.
At this moment, Zhao Yun couldn't help but admire Yan Liang's judgment.
"It turns out that Your Majesty had expected that Sima Yi would play dirty tricks, so the infantry did not move. He only sent me to lead the light army to bluff to investigate. Fortunately, Your Majesty was prepared. Otherwise, these hundreds of thousands of infantry troops came here and the floods As soon as I came to run, they came running, and I had to be severely injured"
Zhao Yun was deeply moved and with admiration for Yan Liang, he immediately ordered the entire army to retreat south immediately.
When the order was given, Ten Thousand Divine Walkers reined in their horses and immediately galloped away.
Although the flood was powerful, its speed was limited, and how could it keep up with the galloping horses. In a short time, the flood was left behind by the Chu army and could no longer be seen.
Zhao Yun did not dare to underestimate him. On the one hand, he sent scouts north to report the flood situation at any time, and on the other hand, he sent flying horses south to report the news to Yan Liang.
In the north of Yong'an County, the Jin Army Highlands.
Sima Yi simply got off his horse, sat on the ground, and tasted the wine elegantly.
With the water in front of you and the delicious wine in your mouth, Sima Yi is so proud.
In his mind, a picture like this has emerged:
More than 100,000 Chu troops came fiercely, but they were frightened by the sudden flood. Thousands of Chu soldiers were swallowed by the flood, and Yan Liang was chased by the flood and fled in embarrassment
Thinking of Yan Liang¡¯s frightened and embarrassed look, Sima Yi¡¯s bones were laughing.
If he can destroy the main force of the Chu army without fighting in this battle, his Jin army does not need to retreat at all. He only needs to follow the flood and kill all the way south, and the Chu army can be completely destroyed.
"If we can accomplish all our efforts in one battle, let alone capture Hedong, even if we march into the Central Plains and wipe out the Chu State in one fell swoop, it may not be impossible.
¡°God helps me, God helps me, haha~~¡± Sima Yi got better and better as he thought about it, and couldn¡¯t help laughing loudly.
At this moment, scouts came flying from the west bank.
In order to monitor the Chu army's movements, Sima Yi deployed a large number of scouts on the west bank. Since the west bank was not affected by the flood, these scouts could monitor the Chu army's movements from across the bank.
"Your Majesty, the Chu army is all light cavalry. They have retreated far away and have not been harmed by the flood."
Bang!
The wine glass in Sima Yi¡¯s hand fell from his hand. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
