Chapter 60 Zhandong Wu Nanhan Yangwei Drive Cao Wei Zhongyuan Unification (14)
Gao Shun did not enter the camp at all, but ignited the object in the camp with rockets outside the camp, so he took advantage of the night to retreat to the distant mountain to watch its change. Cao Zhang was shocked when he entered the camp and did not see the soldiers and horses of the Southern Han Dynasty, and quickly ordered the soldiers to search carefully.
Sun Quan saw that the land of grain in Xishan was on fire, so he led troops to help Cao Zhang. Cao Zhang couldn't find Gaoshun's people in the camp, so he went out to look around. At this time, the Eastern Wu soldiers and horses were arriving. In the night, the two armies did not distinguish between the enemy and me, and actually killed each other. It was not until Cao Zhang and Sun Quan arrived before the battle that they collected their own soldiers and horses.
Cao Zhang asked Sun Quan, "Your Majesty, have you ever seen Nan Ye's soldiers and horses?"
Sun Quan said inexplicably, "Why did General Cao ask me first?"
Cao Zhang explained, "When my soldiers arrived, Nanye's soldiers and horses had already retreated. I don't know if they could see the soldiers and horses on the way?"
Sun Quan shook his head and said, "I have never seen it."
Lu Su interrupted at this time, "Is it that we are all Zhongnanye's plan?"
Sun Quan was shocked when he heard the words, "What should I do?"
Lu Su said, "I will go back to the camp as soon as possible to pick up Governor Sima." Sun Quan and Cao Zhang nodded when they heard the words and said that they came together to save Sima Yi.
Gao Shun saw clearly on the mountain and saw that the two armies of Wu and Wei retreated, so he carefully followed and waited for the opportunity to move.
However, it was said that Cao Chun and Cao Zhen saw the fire in the camp, so they opened the gate of the fortress and raised troops to come and from the Nanye camp. Sima Yi waved his army and followed the second generals. Cao Chun and Cao Zhen killed all the way into the Nanye camp. They saw that the big tent was brightly lit, but they did not see a soldier. When they were wondering, there were shouts of killing around them. Gan Ning, Taishici, Huang Zhong and Huang Xu led the four generals out and surrounded Cao's army at the core.
Cao Chun and Cao Zhen were shocked by this situation, and people and horses rushed around, and countless people died. The second general will have a conflict and can't leave the camp. At this time, Sima Yi led the soldiers and rushed into the camp, and then rescued the two generals and left.
When Gan Ning saw Sima Yi's soldiers coming, they naturally refused to let go and chased after him closely. Sima Yi was moving forward and listened to a drum in front of him. Nan Ye led Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhang Ren, Zhang Baiqi, Ma Yunqi, Hua Bei and other generals to kill them all together, cutting off Sima Yi's return road.
Cao Chun and Cao Zhen led the tiger and leopard to rush out of the siege and finally returned to the village, but they saw that the gate of the village was closed and the arrows on the wall of the village were like flying locusts. It turned out that they were attacked by Zhao Yun and Yang Xiong.
Cao Bing was defeated, and Sima Yi had to lead his troops to Sun Quanzhai. Fang wanted to enter the village, but he saw a Biao army and horse rushing to come. It was Sun Quan and Cao Zhang. Everyone was about to enter the village, and ten thousand arrows were fired in Wu Junzhai. It turned out that Wu camp had been occupied by Wei Yan and Zhang Yu.
Sun Quan was furious when he saw that his camp was occupied, so he ordered the soldiers to attack the camp. When Sima Yi saw that Nan Ye divided his troops everywhere, he expected that there were not many soldiers and horses in the Wu battalion, so he also attacked the camp together.
Wei Yan and Zhang Li did not have many soldiers, but the territory would not collapse at a touch, so they defended the camp and fought with the Wu and Wei armies. Just when the three people were difficult to solve, suddenly the two armies of Wu and Wei shouted and killed behind their backs, and Gao Shun, who had been following them, rushed into the back of the two armies.
In the night, Sun Quan and Sima Yi could not tell how many soldiers were behind them. They thought that it was Nanye who were chasing soldiers, so they dared not continue to attack the camp and lead the troops to seize the way.
Gao Shun saw that the two armies retreated but did not chase them in a hurry, but waited for Nanye's soldiers to arrive. A moment later, Nanye led the army and went with Gao Shun to pursue Sun Quan and Sima Yi.
Nan Ye's leading soldiers were chasing forward, and suddenly there was a shout of killing on the fork in the road, highlighting an ambush. Nan Ye cast his skills and saw that the leader was Han Dang, who had been harassing the grain road for days.
After Han Dang's break, Sun Quan and Sima Yi took the opportunity to go far. After Nan Ye and Han Dang fought for a while, Han Dang also retreated. The soldiers and horses of the Southern Han Dynasty won a great victory.
Sun Quan and Sima Yi led the defeated soldiers to escape dozens of miles before stopping. At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, and Sun Quan sighed, "There is no way to lose soldiers and horses in this war, and the grain and grass are trapped in the camp. What should we do?"
There is a saying that people and horses will not be defeated if they lose their troops and horses, but if they lose food and grass, they will not be far from defeat. All the generals knew this truth, and Lv Meng said, "Your Majesty, don't have to worry. Yanzhou is still the boundary of Wu. Your Majesty can divide your troops into counties to raise grain."
Lu Su frowned when he heard the words. This year, the economy of Eastern Wu was chaotic and the people were not able to make a living. I'm afraid that there was not much food in various places. So Lu Su said, "How can the people raise food and fodder from hardship?"
Lv Meng said, "It's just that the people are suffering. There are always rich families with surplus food, and we can borrow all of them for military use."
Sun Quan has been a king for many years and has never plundered his own people. He said unhappily, "Although Ziming's plan can get food, the hearts of the people have been lost!" This plan is not possible, such as killing chickens to get eggs.
Lv Meng arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty's words are not good! We are waiting for the survival of the country. If we don't use this plan to raise food, our army will be defeated. Yanzhou is for Nanye. Why does your majesty sympathize with the people under Nanye? If we use this to raise grain, our army may defeat and win. At that time, we will get Nanye's grain and grass, and your majesty can return it to the people to receive the people's expectations.
Sun Quan thought that what Lv Meng said was very reasonable. Yanzhou was not necessarily his own, and he could not care about the lives of the people. As soon as Sun Quan was about to order the division of troops to raise grain, he saw Sima Yi coming and catching up with the Wu army.
Sima Yi also came here for food and fodder. Lv Meng wanted to plunder the people. How could Sima Yi not think of it? However, he can't say this kind of immoral strategy directly to Sun Quan. At this moment, he just wants to force Sun Quan to submit and said, "Your Majesty has a countermeasure against the lack of food in the army?"
Sun Quan nodded and said, "I'm going to find Governor Sima to discuss the division of troops to borrow food from the people."
Sima Yi was overjoyed to hear the words, and Sun Quan's plan was indeed in his heart. However, Sima Yi hesitated and said, "I don't know how your majesty wants to borrow food?"
Sun Quan said, "I want to find a rich family to borrow food first and leave a letter. If this battle is won, it will be doubled."
Sima Yi smiled secretly when he heard the words. If he wins, he will double it. If he loses, he won't return it. However, Sima Yi has no objection. Anyway, Yanzhou is the territory of Eastern Wu at this time. Sun Quanai toss around as much as he can. Sima Yi nodded and said, "Your Majesty's plan is very good, which can solve the urgent need."
Seeing that Sima Yi also agreed, Sun Quan ordered the two soldiers of Wu and Wei to divide their troops to borrow grain. Sun Quan thought it well, but his subordinates did not implement it. Wu soldiers were better. Under the indulgence of Sima Yi, the soldiers of Wei were unscrupulous. They did not borrow food, but obviously plundered. It's not over if you rob food, grass, gold and silver, and you have to burn **. Anyway, it's not your own territory, and you won't feel sad if it's a disaster.
At the beginning, Nanye took Yanzhou and then sold Yanzhou to Liu Bei. At that time, Nanye moved all the poor people in Yanzhou, and those who stayed in Yanzhou were all rich families, and their families were unwilling to move. Now that Sun Quan and Sima Yi have looted troops, these rich people have been unlucky. There are countless people whose families have been destroyed. The people of Yanzhou are full of grievances, and the people all hate that they did not follow Nanye to migrate at the beginning.
After the looting of the Wu and Wei armies, they obtained countless money and grain, and reunited their soldiers and horses in Kangqiu to prepare to fight with Nan Ye again. Nanye found out that Sun Quan and Sima Yi divided their troops to rob grain, so he also divided their troops to take various counties. Dong County, Jiyin, Shanyang, Chen Liu and other places were all obtained by Nan Ye.
When the people of Yanzhou saw Nanye's soldiers coming, they all greeted each other. The Wu defenders in the middle of the city resisted a little, so some people set fire in the city to help Nanye take the city, so the counties and counties fell. Nanye came out of the list of Anmin everywhere he went, divided the grain and fodder of the Wu and Wei armies he had previously obtained with the people, collected the hearts of the people, and then came to Kangqiu.
When Sima Yi learned that Nanye's soldiers had arrived, he called Cao Zhang and Cao Chun and ordered them, "Today, Nanye has won the counties of Yanzhou, and he must soothe the people to comfort the people and will not be in the camp. The two of you each led 10,000 elite soldiers, got up tonight, and killed the generals bravely after the Southern Han camp. I led the army to be arrayed in front, only waiting for the chaos of the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty. I drove the soldiers and attacked and killed them. The two armies could work together to seize the Nanye camp. If you get the grain and grass in Nanye Camp, it will not be difficult to break Nanye again.
The two were led away by the plan, and Sima Yi and Sun Quan went out to line up to wait for the chaos of Nanye's soldiers and horses.
Cao Zhang and Cao Chun, one on the left and one on the right, took the path and went deep into the soldiers and horses of the Southern Han Dynasty. At the third time, the two soldiers and horses met on the main road and killed them from behind the Nanye camp.
Cao Bing traveled less than 30 miles, but suddenly the front army couldn't. Cao Zhang and Cao Chun looked forward in person and saw hundreds of straw cars crossing the road. The second general took a closer look and found that these vehicles were all grain and grass vehicles left in the camp before the Wu and Wei armies.
Cao Zhang knew that these grain and grass trucks should be captured by Nanye, and it was not a good thing to appear here, so he said to Cao Chun, "I must be prepared to see Nanye. I'll wait to take the way back."
Cao Chun also knew that the big deal was not good, so he ordered him to retreat. He saw that the mountains were full of fire, the drums and corners were shaken, and the ambushes were everywhere. Several rockets came and ignited the grass car in the way to intercept the front road, and the army surrounded the two people in the core.
Nan Ye saw the second general trapped on the hillside and said loudly, "Cao Zhang and Cao Chun listened to the truth. Sima Yi expected that I would comfort the people everywhere and not be in the camp, so I asked the two of you to rob my village, but it was also my plan. You are a nameless general. If I don't kill you, you can dismount and surrender early!"
Cao Zhang was furious when he heard the words, and the guide Ye scolded: "Pifu'an dares to make this big statement! If I catch you, I will smash ten thousand pieces!" After saying that, he drew a halberd and went up the mountain.
When the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty saw Cao Zhang going up the mountain, they could not let him do what he wanted. For a moment, the stones on the mountain were like rain. Cao Zhang couldn't get close to the front, so he had to beat his horse and rush out of the siege.
At this time, Nan Ye's generals were confronting Sima Yi in front of the battle. This time, Jia Xu saw that Sima Yi stood still and knew that he must have a plan, which made Nan Ye set up an ambush. In order to create the illusion that Nan Ye was still in the camp for Sima Yi, Nan Ye did not bring Dian Wei, Ma Yunqi and other cronies, but only brought two inconspicuous generals Zang Ba and Zhang Yan to set an ambush. Unexpectedly, Cao Zhang was very brave and rushed out.
Zang Ba and Zhang Yan saw that Cao Zhang broke through the array and had no light on their faces. They trapped Cao Chun in the core and did not teach them to escape. Cao Zhang came out of his way and turned back to see Cao Chun. He bravely returned to the siege and rescued Cao Chun.
When Nanye saw Cao Zhang's confrontation among thousands of troops on the mountain, he couldn't help sighing to the left and right guards: "I didn't expect this man to be so brave. If I had known that I should have sent Lv Feng first."
