When everyone heard the news, they were very moved and shouted: "The Chief is better than us. We are willing to not go back first and sacrifice our life to repel the Wei army and repay the Prime Minister's kindness." Kong Ming shook his head and said: "You should
When I got home, my family was still waiting for you, why should I stay here?"
Everyone was about to go out to fight and didn't want to go back. Kong was obviously helpless and said, "Since you want to fight with me, you can go out of the city to set up camp. When the Wei army arrived, don't give them a chance to breathe. Just attack directly. This is
With a way to wait for work.”
Everyone received the order, and each took their weapons and left the city, ready to fight at any time, and set up a formation to wait for the arrival of the Wei army.
The Xiliang horses came very quickly, but they had consumed a lot of energy. When they arrived at the scheduled location, they were trapped and were exhausted and prepared to camp for a rest. Suddenly, the Shu army rushed forward, and everyone was brave. Yong and Liang soldiers were no match for the enemy at all, so they could only retreat behind.
The Shu army tried hard to cover up the killing, killing him so that the corpses were everywhere and blood flowed into a river.
Kong Ming left the city and summoned Shu soldiers to return to reward him. At this time, an envoy asked for a visit, saying that it was Li Yan from Yong'an who had a letter. Kong Ming opened the letter and said that it was: Recently, he heard that the Eastern Wu sent people to Luoyang and the State of Wei.
In alliance, Wei asked the Eastern Wu to send troops to attack Western Shu, but Wu had not yet raised an army. I found out the news and hoped that the Prime Minister could decide. I also sent this news to the court, but there was no reply yet.
After reading it, Kong Ming felt very strange, so he gathered everyone and said, "If the Eastern Wu led his troops to attack Western Shu, the situation would be very critical. We can only suspend the Northern Expedition, inform Xiangyang first to prepare, and then send someone to tell me.
His Majesty."
After everyone left, Kong Ming called Yuyi's video. At this time, Yuyi was rushing to Xiangyang City. Kong Ming told Yuyi the content of Li Yan's letter. Yuyi felt strange and called Huang Shumin's video to verify.
, Huang Shumin said: "There have been strange phenomena in the city recently. Some Eastern Wu soldiers have emerged sporadically. They seem to be not afraid of swords and cannot be killed, which is very troublesome."
Yu Yi said: "I'm afraid the Eastern Wu saw that we had a long-term northern expedition to the Central Plains, and was ready to attack Western Shu. Fortunately, the Prime Minister got the news. You should stabilize the scene first and wait until I arrived at the scene before talking."
It turned out that the evil forces descended their clones and entered the body of Queen Huang Ruier, disrupted the government affairs and killed some ministers so that the vigorous Northern Expedition Army would return, and almost conspire to Prime Minister Kong Ming. Fortunately, Yu Yi led Zhuri to fight out in time and disperse.
With this clone, the ability of evil power is reduced.
The evil power quickly floated to Sima Yi and distributed some power to Sima Yi, saying to him: "Now Yu Yi has obtained jade artifacts and combined with ancient books, I cannot penetrate into the bodies of the Western Shu people, I can only rely on you, I just said
Give you some strength to drive the corpse soldiers as soon as possible.”
After Sima Yi obtained this power, his confidence in driving 100,000 corpse soldiers increased greatly. He and Yu Yi fought many times and formed some of his own opinions. He believed that he should bypass Yu Yi and use corpse soldiers, so he drove the power that night, so he let the
Thirty thousand corpse soldiers descended from the sky and ambushed at the junction of Eastern Wu and Western Shu. Then some corpse soldiers were sent to attack some Wu soldiers, changed their clothes, and sneaked into Xiangyang City to cause damage, creating the illusion that the Wu Kingdom wanted to attack Western Shu.
Let’s talk about Yong’an Li Yan. Since Gou’an was beheaded by Kong Ming for food and grass transportation, he felt uncomfortable. When Gou’an took a walk, the rumors made him more passive. In addition, he also faced a very serious problem, which is the front-line food transportation.
Obstacles, as the new emperor, he criticized him many times for food. In this context, Li Yan had the intention of joining Wei, so he sent someone to find Sima Yi. After Sima Yi learned about this situation, he was very happy and asked the envoy to
Reply to Li Yan and told him that as long as Li Yan was willing to spread the news that the Eastern Wu and Wei were aligned and prepared to attack Western Shu, he would accept his surrender. Li Yan happily agreed, and then there was a later one, Kong Ming received it.
When Sima Yi stopped the attack, he also arranged 30,000 corpse soldiers at the border, preparing to test it and then launch a large-scale attack, creating the illusion of the attack of the Eastern Wu and constraining the Northern Expedition Army.
By the evening, Yu Yi called back the video of Kong Ming again, describing the experience of Huang Shumin in Xiangyang City, and confirming the authenticity of the content of Li Yan's letter. Yu Yi suggested that the Northern Expedition should not be interrupted, and that he would go to Xiangyang, command forward, and defeat the Eastern Wu.
However, Kong Ming put forward different opinions. He believed that the power of Western Shu was the weakest among the Three Kingdoms. If an enemy was made on both sides, he would inevitably be unable to look after each other and insisted on retreating.
Yu Yi sighed. After all, the army described by Huang Shumin is very strange, and Yu Yi is not sure of his decision. If it really fails and there is no progress in the Northern Expedition, Western Shu will be really dangerous. So he accepted Kong Ming's suggestion and Kong Ming slowed down.
Retreat, Yu Yi went to Xiangyang. If he could repel, he would restore the Northern Expedition. If he could not, he would have to join forces. Kong Ming planned to continue to build a good relationship with the Eastern Wu and focus on appeasement.
So Kong Ming sent an order to let the Qishan camp retreat slowly to Xichuan, saying, "Sima Yi knows that we are stationing troops here and will not chase after him." So Wang Ping, Zhang Yi, Wu Ban, Wu Yi, the troops were divided into two groups and heading to Xichuan.
Return direction.
When Zhang He saw the Shu soldiers retreating, he was afraid that it was Kong Ming's plan and did not dare to chase them. So he took his troops to find Sima Yi and said, "Now the Shu soldiers suddenly retreated, I don't know what happened?"
Sima Yi probably knew the inside story, and in order to do a good job of confidentiality, he had to pretend not to know and replied: "Kong Ming has many plans and cannot act rashly. It is better to stick to it. When their food is gone, they will naturally return to Western Shu."
General Wei Ping came out and suggested: "The Shu soldiers suddenly pulled out the camp in Qishan. Something must have happened in the rear. The governor stopped moving his troops and regarded the Shu army as scared as a tiger. Aren't they afraid of laughing at the world?" Sima Yi just smiled.
Resolutely refuse to follow this advice.
Kong Ming knew that the troops from Qishan had returned, so he asked Yang Yi and Ma Zhong to enter the camp and taught a plan. He first took ten thousand archers to the wooden doorway of Jiange and set up two ambushes. If the Wei army chased him, he would hear the cannon.
The sound quickly rolled down the wood and stones, cut off the way, and shot together on both sides. After the two left with their troops, they called Wei Yan and Guan Xing, asking to lead their troops to break the back. There were flags on all sides of the city, and many were piled up in the city.
Firewood, pretending to set off some fireworks, and the other soldiers walked towards the wooden doorway.
The Wei army patrol troops came back to report to Sima Yi and said, "The main troops of the Shu army have left, but it is not clear how many soldiers and horses there are in the city."
Sima Yi went to see it in person and found that there were flags on the city and smoke was floating in the city. He smiled and said, "This must be an empty city." He sent someone to inquire, and it turned out to be an empty city.
Sima Yi was very happy and said, "I guess Kong Ming has really retreated this time. Who dares to pursue him?"
