Chapter 637 Ambush the Wei Army
Hearing the four words "take the initiative", the monarch and ministers of Shu Han in the hall were in an uproar.
The Cao Wei army was coming in full force, and they might not be able to take down the city if they defended the city to the death. Fa Zheng actually asked to take the initiative?
"Are the Grand Sima joking?"
Zhang Fei stared at Fa Zheng and couldn't help but say coldly,
"Only our little force is enough to block Yang Ling and Cao Wei's teeth. Why should we take the initiative to attack?"
Facing Zhang Fei's questioning, Fa Zheng smiled and asked back,
"Could General Yide be afraid of Yang Ling?"
"Just kidding, why am I afraid of that guy Yang Ling?!"
Zhang Fei shook his head decisively.
"Since General Yide is not afraid, please listen to me."
Fa Zheng smiled and said slowly,
"When we retreat, we lose the initiative on the battlefield."
"It's better to take the initiative than to be beaten passively."
He paused, walked to the hanging map, and talked happily,
"If we divide the troops into Baishui Pass, according to you, how will Yang Ling deal with it?"
Liu Bei looked at the terrain around Jiange on the map and said slowly,
"Baishui Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Just a small team of troops can withstand Guo Huai's tens of thousands of troops."
"Yangling should have a group of troops at the forks of the road and go to attack the Baishui Pass defenders with Liangzhou troops."
Fazheng nodded and said with a smile,
"Your Majesty is indeed far-sighted! I also think so, but this will give us the opportunity to take the initiative."
“Taurus Road is densely forested and steep.”
"We can arrange a troops in advance. After the Wei army supporting Baishui Pass passed by, we will surround him with the defenders of Baishui Pass."
"After eliminating that group of Wei troops, return to Shijian Pavilion immediately."
"The mountain road of Taurus Road is narrow and it is difficult for the army to spread."
"Our army suddenly launched an attack, but I'm afraid that Cao Wei would not have time to react."
"As long as the shouts of killing here are heard, the defenders guarding Jiange will fight with the opportunity and will definitely defeat the Wei army!"
"In this way, even if we cannot repel the Wei army, we can still win some time for our great man!"
When Fa Zheng told his thoughts in detail, Liu Bei and others all lit up!
It has to be admitted that Fazheng’s strategy is closely linked and very clever!
Although there are some risks, once successful, it will severely damage the Wei army!
Liu Bei thought about it and looked at Zhuge Liang beside him.
"What does the Prime Minister mean?"
Compared with the good and strange strategy, Zhuge Liang is relatively stable.
After listening to Fazheng's advice, he actually did not agree.
At first glance, Fazheng's strategy seems to be very effective, but when you think about it carefully, there are many loopholes.
Not to mention anything else, what if Cao Wei discovered their movements or had not sent troops to support Baishui Pass?
However, after thinking for a while, Zhuge Liang nodded and agreed.
"I think the advice of Grand Sima is risky, but it is worth a try!"
"That's good!"
Seeing Zhuge Liang agreeing, Liu Bei laughed happily.
The reason why Zhuge Liang nodded was ultimately helpless.
Under the economic suppression of Cao Wei, Yizhou was already shaking.
Now that the Wei army is attacking, there are no more panic in Shu Han, and rumors are everywhere!
If you just keep guarding Jianmen Pass, even if Cao Wei cannot attack, Shu Han will defeat him without attacking him over time!
But if Fazheng's plan works, all the problems can be solved!
This is also a solution!
After confirming that Fazheng's plan was implemented, Liu Bei discussed with his ministers again, who should be sent to guard Baishui Pass.
"The Baishui Pass is at a critical location, and the generals guarding the army must stick to Yangling to divide the troops. The people who arrange this place must be capable and not afraid of sacrifice!"
Zhuge Liang said, looking at Ma Su,
"You go to guard this place for you. I wonder what you mean?"
Ma Su just hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice,
"I'm willing to go!"
"very good!"
Liu Bei smiled happily,
"I can say that I feel very relieved if I have a young man who often sits in Baishui Pass!"
Although Liu Bei doesn't look down on Ma Su very much, he thinks that his words are superficial.
But at this critical moment, it is rare for Ma Su to go to a dangerous place!
After arranging Ma Su to take charge of Baishui Pass, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng again.
"In your opinion, who can be responsible for going out of the city to ambush Cao Wei's soldiers?"
Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng looked at each other and subconsciously looked at Liu Feng.
Fa Zheng coughed lightly and said in a deep voice,
"The King of Chu has a strong personality and extraordinary strength, which is the most suitable one!"
In order to avoid the situation of fighting for the throne between Liu Feng and Liu Chan, after Liu Bei ascended the throne, he directly made Liu Chan the crown prince and conferred Liu Feng the King of Chu!
The general who leads his army out of the city and serves as an ambush must be strong and strong, and extremely brave in order to defeat the Cao Wei army.
In the entire Shu Han Dynasty, Zhang Fei was the only one who met the requirements.
But Zhang Fei is already in high spirits this year, and it is really unreasonable to let him go to the battlefield to fight hard again.
Although Liu Feng is a big difference between Zhang Fei, fortunately, he is in his prime and can make up for the gap!
"Would my son be willing to go?"
Liu Bei looked at Liu Feng with his eyes full of expectations.
"My son is willing to go!"
Liu Feng is decisive,
"Please rest assured, my son will definitely defeat Cao Wei, and he will not obey the wishes of his father!"
Although he was Liu Bei's adopted son, Liu Feng felt ambition in his heart as he saw that Liu Chan was weak and capable.
Even if you have been named king, what if you defeat Yang Ling and make unparalleled military achievements, your father must consider it?
"Okay, okay, if we can repel the Wei army this time, Feng'er will always be the first to be the best!"
Liu Bei laughed!
After finalizing all the details, Liu Feng and Ma Su led 10,000 troops and hurriedly left Chengdu.
They traveled all the way and arrived at Jiange in just half of the time.
At the same time, Liu Feng and Ma Su also received news that the Wei army had set out from Yangping Pass.
They did not dare to neglect and immediately left Jiange.
When passing through the Sanchakou, the two of them turned around and headed towards Baishui Pass.
As the distance was almost the same, Liu Feng stopped and said solemnly.
"Mr. Youchang, I'll ask you to go to Baishui Pass!"
"Please rest assured that if I am here, Baishui Pass will never be lost!"
Ma Su is serious and authentic,
"As long as the King of Chu sends a message, I will immediately leave the customs and attack the Wei army with you!"
“So great!”
Liu Feng was also a little relieved.
After Ma Su left with three thousand men, Liu Feng immediately ordered the remaining Shu Han army to hide in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road!
Seeing their traces hidden in no way, Liu Feng nodded with satisfaction and waited patiently for the news of the arrival of Wei Jun.
The next morning, the spies from Shu Han came to report that the vanguard of Cao Wei had arrived at Sanchakou.
