The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1201 Zhuge Liang Uses Soldiers

On the Chengdu side, Liu Bian devoted all his attention to governing Yizhou, selecting talents, restoring people's livelihood, and forming a new army. All tasks were proceeding in an orderly manner.

On the other side, Zhuge Liang led [-] soldiers and horses under his command, and marched towards Jiangzhou in a mighty manner.

Jiangzhou is located in Berkshire, Yizhou, and is the seat of Berkshire.

In history, the Shu Han established four major garrison governors, namely, the governor of Yijiang, the governor of Hanzhong, the governor of Yong'an, and the governor of Jiangzhou.Yu surrendered to the governor of Nanzhong, the governor of Hanzhong to guard against Cao Wei, and the governor of Yong'an to guard against Dongwu.

Relatively speaking, Jiangzhou is not the first line. It is located behind Yongan. It has two main functions. One is the second line of defense against Soochow. If Yongan loses, it can retreat to Jiangzhou.The second function is to recruit the grain and grass from Berkshire and transport it to Hanzhong as the logistics of the Northern Expedition.

After all, it is Bashu and Bashu. Yizhou is also called the land of Bashu. In the pre-Qin period, the two most powerful countries in Yizhou were Bashu and Bashu. Today, the two richest counties in Yizhou are also Bajun and Shujun.

By mid-June, Zhuge Liang led his troops to Jiangzhou.

In Jiangzhou City, the guards are Wu Yi and Wu Ban brothers, and Dong He is on the side to advise and advise. There are five thousand defenders in the city.At that time, Yang Su learned that there was a change in Chengdu, so he sent his righteous brother Yang Lin and general Xin Wenli to attack Jiangzhou with [-] troops.

Brother Wu Yi only had five thousand soldiers and horses in hand, and the enemy had three times as many soldiers and horses. Brother Wu Yi didn't dare to fight, so he could only stick to it.

And Yang Lin and Xin Wenli also stormed Jiangzhou, but because they had nothing to do and couldn't take Jiangzhou, they sent some soldiers and horses to collect food and grass in Berkshire to supply Yang Su's army in the rear.

After all, the way back was cut off. There was Liu Yu's army in front of him. If Yang Su ran out of food and grass, it would really be over. Therefore, although Yang Lin did not capture Jiangzhou, he collected a large amount of food and grass for Yang Su's army in Berkshire and transported it to Fish Belly County.

This is also the reason why Yang Su's army has not been defeated by Liu Yu for so long.

Those who have learned the poem Baidicheng early will know that there is a famous line in the poem, which is called "A Thousand Miles of Jiangling Returned in One Day".Depart from Baidi City in the morning, and arrive at Jiangling the next day, a place of thousands of miles, within a day.

This is talking about walking the Yangtze River by water. Although exaggerated techniques are used in it, it is enough to illustrate the steepness of this section of the road!

How can it be so fast?Due to the large drop between the upper and lower reaches, this section of the Yangtze River waterway is located between the mountains and the drop is extremely large, so the boat is fast.If it is a flat river, how can it be so fast.

The Baidi City is also located in Yufu County. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is the Baidi City Tuogu. In history, it was the Yongan Palace Tuogu.

Yang Su is guarding such a precipitous place in Yufu County. As long as he does not act rashly, although Liu Yu can, it will be difficult to defeat Yang Su.

Zhuge Liang led the army into Jiangzhou, and he summoned all the generals under his command to discuss with Jiangzhou's guard Wu Yi brothers and Dong He.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said to the three of them: "Liang has just arrived, so I would like to ask you to explain the situation in Jiangzhou in detail. If you know this and the other, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles!"

The three of them looked at each other, and Brother Wu Yi set his sights on Dong He. Dong He was capable of both literature and martial arts, and his explanation was clearer.

Seeing this, Dong He didn't delay any longer, cupped his hands and said, "Then Commander Zhuge, I'll tell you!"

"Well, all ears!" Zhuge Liang nodded.

Dong He then said: "More than two months ago, Yang Su sent his righteous brother Yang Lin and general Xin Wenli to lead an army of [-] to attack Jiangzhou. Fortunately, we came one step earlier and raised the city defense ahead of time. , deep ditches and high fortifications, which resisted them."

Zhuge Liang pondered: "Oh? When I was in Chengdu, I saw Zhang Yongnian was full of praise for you. Could it be that in the past two months, with your talents, it was very difficult to resist? Then Yang Suru is nearly sixty years old, and his righteous brother Yang Lin , even older, so powerful?"

Dong He nodded, and said: "That's right, Yang Lin is nearly seventy years old, his beard and hair are white, but he is honest and brave. He is not inferior to the new etiquette of a general in his prime, and even surpasses it. And Yang Lin is also well versed in the art of war, Siege schemes emerge in endlessly, and it is very difficult for me to resist them.

In the past month, many soldiers and horses under his command had suffered many casualties, so he stopped attacking and instead recruited food and grass from the local area to supply Yang Su. I'm afraid Yang Su was planning to take advantage of the danger and defend. "

"This is Dudu Yang, General Huang!" Hearing Dong He's words, Zhuge Liang exclaimed.

Dudu Yang was talking about Yang Jiye, General Huang was Huang Zhong, Zhuge Liang compared Yang Lin to Yang Jiye, Huang Zhong, and lamented his ability.

Zhuge Liang continued to ask: "What about the soldiers and horses outside the city? You said that they have been collecting food and grass in the nearby city for a while, but have they ever gathered?"

Dong He nodded and said: "Ten thousand soldiers and horses gathered outside the city, and some of them are collecting food and grass. I think they have learned something, and their defenses are very strict."

"En!" Zhuge Liang nodded, and said to the generals: "Everyone, follow me to the top of the city to see the situation!"

"Commander, please!"

Dong He and others took Zhuge Liang and other generals from Yongzhou to the city.

Zhuge Liang looked at the camp below the city, his brows gradually frowned.

After looking at it for a while, Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "This Yang Lin is really extraordinary. The camps are well established and not easy to attack!"

Wu Tianxi said disapprovingly: "We have [-] soldiers and horses, are we afraid that we will not be able to break through their camp?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "If you attack by force, you will kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. Moreover, Yang Lin still has five thousand soldiers and horses to collect food and grass, which is difficult to deal with."

Jiang Wei said angrily: "Now the people in Yizhou are overwhelmed. We must make a quick decision. If we don't defeat Yang Lin, the people around Berkshire will be exploited by them."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a plan to destroy Yang Lin."

Jiang Wei and other generals were overjoyed when they heard the words, and said, "Please give the order from the commander-in-chief!"

Zhuge Liang looked at Jiang Wei, and Gao Siji ordered: "Jiang Wei, Gao Siji, you two will lead five thousand troops each, go out of the west gate, and take a detour to Linjiang County behind Yang Su. Linjiang County is located on the edge of the Yangtze River. Twenty miles to the west of the county seat, the Yangtze River is the narrowest, and it is also the only way to reach Linjiang City. If Yang Lin's army retreats, it will choose to retreat to Linjiang, and Yang Su will guard the corner of the Yangtze River to occupy the natural danger of the Yangtze River. Guard against danger.

You just need to lie in ambush on both sides of the Yangtze River, and when Yang Lin's army retreats to this place, you will order everyone to shoot all arrows, and his army will surely be defeated! "

"No!" The two bowed their hands and accepted the order.

Wu Yi was puzzled immediately, and said, "Captain, didn't you say that we can't attack by force? Since we can't attack by force, how can we make Yang Lin retreat to Linjiang?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It's not enough to attack Yang Lin by force, but it's very easy to let him retreat!"
