Three Kingdoms: The Shu Han was a prodigal, and Wollongong was burned at the beginning Chapter 334 Carrying a heavy burden and moving forward is unbearable
Chapter 334 Carrying a heavy burden and moving forward is unbearable
Just as Liu Mang said, the Han army quickly took action and placed the army in Dingjun Mountain!
On the contrary, Yangping Pass, which was finally won, returned to Cao Cao's hands.
Four hundred thousand troops came out in full force, and the battle line stretched for thousands of miles!
After Cao Cao occupied Yangping Pass, he discovered that since Liu Bei was already on Dingjun Mountain, he still had the initiative in the war.
The most urgent task is to drive Liu Bei down from Dingjun Mountain!
It is a pity that no matter how much Cao Jun yelled and scolded, Liu Beijun could not hold on.
This also made Cao Cao very depressed. It was you and me who issued the challenge, but I came and you hid on Dingjun Mountain!
"Father! Liu Mang is a cunning son, and Liu Bei, a prostitute, is even more shameless!"
Cao Pi cursed loudly: "Now that my army has arrived, they can only retreat to the rear!"
Cao Pi's move was more like showing off his power.
Jia Xu and Sima Yi looked at each other and said nothing.
Both of them supported Cao Pi, and they saw that Master Pi's attitude toward the aristocratic families was to draw close to them, rather than to oppress him like Cao Cao.
"I seem to have understood what Liu Bei wants."
Cao Cao was a little tired, and Xun Yu kept sending urgent reports about military rations from Xuchang.
It is indeed not an easy task to maintain the supply of food and fodder for an army of 400,000.
That is, Xun Yu, known as the "Wang Zuo", was able to barely support it.
"this……"
Cao Pi was a little confused, but it made Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi laugh secretly.
"King Wei, Liu Mang, this son, is just deliberately lengthening our army's front line."
Xun You frowned and said: "He and his son are unable to hold on to Dingjun Mountain. The King of Wei can send strange troops to break his food route!"
"In my opinion, Liu Bei will only use the Golden Ox Road to transport food! If our army can cut off his food road, we can trap Liu Bei to death in Dingjun Mountain!"
Jia Xu and Sima Yi, two old men, had already thought of this strategy, but they did not take the lead.
Jia Xu had a grudge against Cao Cao, and had previously killed Cao Ang, Dian Wei and Cao Anmin in Wancheng.
As long as Cao Cao didn't take the initiative to ask, Jia Xu would never speak.
As for Sima Yi, he will never rise to prominence. After all, Chibi borrowed rockets and Cao Cao didn't have to settle accounts after the fall, so he was already burning incense.
"Gongda is worthy of being the mastermind of Gu."
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Who goes to the Golden Bull Road to cut off the food road of Big Er'er?"
The generals were silent because most of Cao's army did not know the terrain of Shu.
Especially since the Taurus Road is steep and difficult, it is easy to steal the chicken but lose the rice!
"King Wei, I am willing to go and give it a try!"
"Okay! Deda is willing to go, it couldn't be better!"
Cao Cao said angrily: "Let Liu Bei have a taste of what it's like to be attacked on the grain road!"
Mentioning Huang Zhong really made Cao Cao furious.
This old soldier not only killed Xia Houyuan and Han Hao, but now he and Ma Chao are constantly invading Cao's army's food route.
This is like cutting flesh with a dull knife. Although it does not hurt the muscles or bones, it makes Cao Cao very uncomfortable.
"King Wei."
Cheng Yu took a step forward at this time, bowed and said: "Although Xun Gongda's plan is brilliant, our army is not good at climbing mountains, and we are not familiar with the terrain."
"If you go rashly, you may be defeated by Liu Bei. I hope the King of Wei will consider it in the long term!"
"Now that King Wei has conquered Liangzhou for the first time, he can take advantage of the situation, so why bother to rush to a decisive battle with Liu Bei in Hanzhong?"
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and looked at Cheng Yu, and said with a smile: "Zhongde, do you mean to make it impossible for Gu to retreat?"
Cheng Yu sighed and said: "Back to the King of Wei, our army should retreat! Liu Bei is no longer the same!"
"When we were defeated in Jingzhou, we had no more than 10,000 soldiers and no generals, Zhao Yun!"
"Now we have Jiaozhou, Yizhou, and Jingzhou, and we can say that we have strong troops and horses!"
"Wen has the Crouching Dragon, Phoenix and Xuanwu; Wu has the Five Tigers and the generals of Bashu in Xiliang!"
"If you want to fight Liu Bei, you must make sure plans are in place! Our army is not as strong as Chibi, and Liu Bei's power is far greater than before!"
Whoosh!
Cao Cao drew his sword, glared at Cheng Yu, and cut off the table.
"If anyone talks about withdrawing from the army again, there will be such a case!"
"Zhongde, I think you have worked hard and achieved great results, but this is your first offense, so I won't hold you accountable!"
Cao Cao stopped talking. Cheng Yu was pulled back by Xun You and did not argue with him.
"With 400,000 soldiers and 400,000 troops mobilized, how can I easily retreat?"
"In this battle, I have the opportunity to directly eliminate Liu Bei, and I will never give up!"
"Generals, we must also fight to the death!"
When the generals heard the words, they bowed and saluted: "I will obey the wishes of the King of Wei!"
Sun Li accepted the order and left. Being confident was a good thing, but the result was not as expected.
Liu Mang specially ordered Shamoko to stay on the Jinniu Road to ensure the safety of the food road.
Sun Li was not familiar with the terrain, and was discovered by Wudang Feijun before he even got close to the grain road.
Samoko went on a killing spree, and only a few hundred people led by Sun Li fled in panic.
Countless people fell to their deaths after falling into a mountain stream, and were captured by the Han army.
After Cao Cao suffered this defeat, he stopped talking about robbing food and had no choice but to stand still and wait for an opportunity.
It was not that Cao Cao had never thought of storming Dingjun Mountain, but the Han army fired their crossbows in unison and fired arrows like locusts, which directly shocked the traitor in troubled times.
This thing is even more lethal than Yuan Shao's Jinglan back then!
Now Cao Cao understood that Xia Houyuan was killed unjustly in this battle!
Facing the powerful repeated crossbows, rushing to attack the mountain is tantamount to committing suicide!
The 400,000 troops consume countless amounts of food and grass every day!
There have been deserters in Cao's army!
Liu Mang, on the other hand, was murderous and heart-wrenching, constantly making Huang Zhong and Liu Feng scold each other.
Every time Cao Jun rushed out of Yangping Pass in a hurry, the Han army just waved his sleeves and decisively chose to leave without taking away a single cloud!
Cao Cao only felt that he was like a young man who was inexperienced in the world.
After being flirted with by Liu Bei, he was anxious to repair his car, but found that he had already chosen to run away.
Cao Cao, who was provoked repeatedly, could only curse in anger.
"Cao Mengde, come out!"
"I promise to fight you this time!"
"If you don't come out, I'll leave!"
Huang Zhong picked his nose and rode alone to scold him. Cao's army at Yangping Pass had lost all morale and was completely exhausted.
Damn it, you are not such a bully!
Saying whether to spank or not is just like walking a dog. Isn’t this teasing?
"Alas! They are all eggless things!"
Huang Zhong laughed and cursed, then rode away.
At that time, the people of Henan, which was the most heavily taxed, could no longer bear the pressure of continuing to supply the army!
Feiyu had already played his role and began to incite the people.
Finally someone responded, and the people in the field besieged Diannong Xiaowei, and then rebelled against Cao Jun!
Fortunately, Xun Yu put down the rebellion in time, but the seeds of rebellion had already been planted in Henan, and peasant uprisings continued to follow.
This made Cao Cao worried and wanted to return to the army in time for rescue.
It's a pity that Liu Mang will never give him a chance!
Feiyu's intelligence value was fully demonstrated at this moment!
"Dad, don't you want to fight Cao Cao face to face? Now is your chance!"
"really?"
Liu Bei was ecstatic. He had been waiting for twenty years for today, a chance to defeat Cao Cao head-on!
