Sima Yi smiled contemptuously and said, "Since I can recognize your Bagua Formation, there is no reason why I dare not attack!" Kong Ming nodded and said, "Then I won't talk nonsense. Just attack, let's try it."
So Sima Yi returned to the formation and shouted to the three generals Dai Ling, Zhang Hu and Le Ji, and ordered: "The formation arranged by Kong Ming is the Bagua Formation. According to Xiu, Sheng, Injury, Du, Jing, Death, Shock
, open a total of eight gates. The three of you attack from the east, attack from the southwest gate, and then open the gate from the north, so the Bagua Formation can be broken, but you still have to be careful."
So Dai Ling is in the middle, Zhang Hu is in front, and Le Ji is behind. Each of them leads thirty cavalry and attacks from Shengmen. The two armies shout for help. The three of them kill the Shu formation together, and only see the formation is like a city.
There was no conflict at all. The three of them hurriedly took the cavalry and rushed to the southwest, but were shot by the Shu soldiers and could not conflict. The formation was stacked with many portals, so there was no way to distinguish between the southeast, west and north?
People could not look at each other, they could only bump into each other, only seeing sad clouds and misty mist. When they shouted, the Wei army was captured one by one, tied up with ropes, and sent to the central army.
Kong Ming was sitting in the camp with a feather fan. On the left and right were Wei generals such as Zhang Hu, Dai Ling, Le Jin, and the soldiers they brought were tied to the camp together.
Kong Ming looked at them and smiled and said, "Even if we catch you, what's the point of wondering about it? I will let you go back to see Sima Yi, let him read more military books, see my formation again, and then be ready, come
It's not too late to fight with me. I will bypass your lives first, but I will leave the military weapons and war horses behind." So I asked the Shu army to take off the clothes of the Wei army, stick the black face with ink, and walk
Walk out of the Bagua Formation.
In fact, there is a difference between the Bagua Formation arranged by Kong Ming and the military books. Sima Yi saw it on the military books. This formation was arranged by Yu Yi once when Le Jin led the Wei army to pursue it. Later, the two discussed it.
Yu Yi told Kong Ming some modern ideas. During the later practice, Kong Ming integrated all these ideas into the array, which gave birth to a new Bagua Formation, which was extremely powerful.
Sima Yi was very angry when he saw the general he sent out was insulted and turned around and said to everyone: "Kong Ming defeated our spirit so much, what kind of face would he have to return to the Central Plains!" So he commanded the three armies and directly attacked the Bagua Formation, and Sima Yi personally promoted the Pang.
The sword was drawn out and more than a hundred cavalrymen rushed to rush.
The two armies had just met, and suddenly the drums and horns were roaring behind the formation, and the shouts were shocked. A team of people came out from the southwest direction. It was Guan Xing. Sima Yi was not panicked when he saw the queen. He divided the military troops out to block them, and then urged the front.
The army fought, and suddenly the Wei army was in chaos. It turned out that Jiang Wei and a pair of men were quietly storming into it. The Shu soldiers attacked each other in three groups. Sima Yi seemed very surprised and quickly ordered the retreat. The Shu army came around. Sima Yi led the three armies to the south to fight to the death.
The Wei army suffered heavy casualties, and Sima Yi retreated to the south bank of Weibin and could not stand out.
Kong Ming recalled the victorious soldiers and horses. After returning to Qishan, Li Yan of Yong'an City sent the commander Gou'an to escort the food and grass to the army for delivery. Gou'an likes to drink very much, and he was delayed in the middle, ten days beyond the agreed date. Kong Ming
Very angry and said, "Our army is fighting on the front line, and it has delayed major events because of food. After three days, it should be beheaded according to the law. Now you have been delaying ten days, what else can you say!" After that, he asked the soldiers to turn him over
Push out to behead.
Chief Secretary Yang Yi said: "Gou'an is Li Yan's man, and our money and food for war are all from Xichuan. If the Prime Minister kills this person, then no one dares to transport food in the later period."
As early as after the Xiangyang grain warehouse problem was exposed, many corruption cases were involved. Yu Yi came to investigate and investigated and dealt with the prince consort together. The relevant personnel also rectified the law, forming a deterrent effect, and the food problem was also solved.
Li Yan is very powerful in Xichuan, and even Yu Yi dare not offend him easily. Especially when the front line is tight, Kong Ming has to weigh the interests, so he did not kill Gou An, but just beat him.
Eighty military sticks, and then released.
Gouan naturally held a grudge and took five or six confidant cavalry to the Wei army camp overnight.
When Sima Yi found out, he called him to his side. Gou An told him about why he surrendered. Sima Yi said: "Even if that's the case, Kong Ming is very cunning. I can't believe what you said. If you can do something for me.
It’s a great contribution, and I will ask Lord Wei to recommend you to be the general.”
Gouan was very happy and said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it."
Sima Yi said: "You can go back to Chengdu and take a walk and say that Kong Ming has the intention to blame the Lord of Shu. He will be called emperor sooner or later, and he should be summoned. This is also your credit."
In fact, Sima Yi knew that as Yu Yi, he would definitely not believe this rumor, but some time ago, he reported it carefully that Yu Yi went to the Southern Barbarians. Although he didn't know what Yu Yi did to the Southern Barbarians, this strategy was against the Queen of Western Shu.
Maybe some effect.
Gou An quickly agreed and went directly to Hanzhong. When he saw Huang Ruier, he also took a walk among other concubines. He said that Kong Ming felt that he had made great contributions and would usurp the throne sooner or later. Huang Ruier was very surprised after hearing this and asked:
"What should I do?"
Gou An suggested: "You can issue an edict to return to Hanzhong and cut off the military power so that he will not rebel."
After Gouan left, Huang Ruier summoned the other sisters in the harem together and discussed: "Now, information has been heard, saying that Prime Minister Kong Ming intends to rebel and that His Majesty is not in the palace, what should we do?"
Everyone's opinions were surprisingly consistent, that was, they asked Kong Ming to be summoned so that they could test it. If he found a reason not to reply, it would prove that the rebellion was true. If he was willing to come back, it would mean that it was a rumor.
In fact, women's thinking is very simple, and they have more benefits, but they are just to maintain their status. Because if Kong Ming really rebels, Yu Yi's throne will not be guaranteed, and women's lives will fall into a passive state, so the result of public opinion is like this.
.
Huang Ruier was a little hesitant because she knew the meaning of Kong Ming's Northern Expedition on the front line, but she couldn't tell Huang Yueying about this matter and could only discuss it with everyone. Everyone's opinions were surprisingly consistent. In the end, she issued an edict to ask Prime Minister Kong Ming to
return.
In the court, Jiang Wan came out and said, "The Prime Minister has made many contributions since the Northern Expedition. Why did he announce his return?"
Huang Ruier said: "I discussed with the sisters in the harem and thought that it would be better to announce that he would come back. His Majesty also had some things to tell him in person." So the envoy took the edict to the front line and asked Kong Ming to return.
