Chapter 488: The prestige of the past is useless now

Anding County is located in the north of Guanzhong and belongs to Yongzhou.

Liupan Mountain, also known as Longshan, traverses the territory of Anding County.

When Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan, marched to Longyou, and sent Zhang Fei to seize Anding County, Zhang Fei originally occupied the entire territory of Anding County, but later, because Cao Pi failed to march from Jieting to Longyou, so he led 100,000 troops to turn to Anding, in a vain attempt to march from Anding to Longyou.

At that time, the Han army was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, Cao Pi drove the expedition in person, led 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the momentum was like a rainbow, and Liu Chan led the main force to fight in Xiliang, plus the stability was the land of Wei, although he surrendered to the Han Dynasty before, but as soon as Cao Pi arrived, the people's hearts turned to Wei.

Therefore, in the face of Cao Pi's attack, the Han army adopted a defensive strategy, giving up a large area of undefended land east of Liupan Mountain, retreating to Liupan Mountain to set up camp, relying on the steepness of Liupan Mountain to resist the Wei army.

However, Cao Pi stormed the Han army camp for more than half a year, and the Han army still lost a lot of camps, so that now, in Anding County, a situation of Han and Wei division has been formed.

The two sides are bounded by Liupan Mountain, but they both occupy half of Liupan Mountain, and each of them relies on the Liupan Mountain they occupy to establish a pass by the mountain, thinking that it is a border stop.

However, the Anding County occupied by the Han army is very small, less than one-fifth of the Anding County of the Wei State, and because the Anding area occupied by the Han army is basically located in Liupan Mountain, there is not even a city, because the cities of Anding County are all east of Liupan Mountain.

Longde, located at the western foot of Liupan Mountain, Liupan Mountain gave birth to a river, called Hulu River, it flows down from the mountain, until it flows into Weishui, this river forms a relatively broad plain at the western foot of Liupan Mountain, after the Han army occupied this area, it established the city of Longde on this plain.

Longde City, therefore, became the military town of the Han army in Anding County, Huang Xu led 20,000 troops to be stationed in Longde City all the year round to guard against Wei.

"Your Majesty, please look, there is Longshan in front, the range of eighty miles belongs to my Han, our army has established many passes and camps in this mountain, and in front of it is the camp of Wei, and they also occupy part of Longshan."

At the head of the east gate of Longde City, Huang Xu led Liu Chan and his party to stand on the head of the city, introducing the situation in Anding County to Liu Chan.

Liu Chan looked eastward, only to see what he saw in front of him, all of them were high mountains with mountains and mountains, vaguely seen, in some mountain pass positions, you can also see the camp of the Han army, the pass.

These places are all passable positions, all of which were tightly controlled by the Han army, and the narrow place was established as a gate, and the wide place was set up as a camp, in which wolf smoke was prepared, once the enemy situation was discovered, the wolf smoke could be ignited, and the rear of Longde could be quickly reinforced.

Liu Chan looked at Huang Xu and asked, "How is the situation of the Wei army?" ”

Huang Xu replied: "The Wei army has three cities at the eastern foot of Longshan Mountain, namely Gaoping, Jingyuan, and Wushi, which control Longshan Mountain, which is more than 400 miles long. ”

Zhuge Liang on the side arched his hand and said: "The defense of Longshan was established by Weichen when he resisted Cao Pi, and there was not much change, as for the defense of the Wei army, it was from the hands of Sima Yi. ”

Liu Chan asked, "Is there a defense map?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, please see!" Huang Xu took out a map from his bosom and unfolded it on the female wall.

This map is the Han and Wei on the Liupan Mountain troop deployment map, 400 miles long, more than 100 miles wide Liupan Mountain, Han and Wei each occupy half, the Han and Wei in the Liupan Mountain to establish the city pass are marked on the map, the Han army in each city pass has been explained, as for the Wei State's city pass, there is no indication of the strength of the force.

After looking at the map for a while, Liu Chan shook his head and said, "It's not easy to fight!" Sima Yi is really an old turtle. ”

Zhuge Liang said: "It's not easy to fight, these camps are built according to the mountains and dangers, located in high places, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it can be said that it is a one-man pass, ten thousand people can not be opened, although there are many soldiers and horses in our army, it is difficult to show it." Moreover, these various camps are secretly in formation, and they can support each other. ”

Guan Yu stroked his beard and said, "Didn't you say before you set out on the expedition that it is easier to attack the camp than the city?" There should be a way to take down the Wei army camp, right? ”

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "The camp and the city are scattered everywhere, although it is difficult to attack, but it is also easier than attacking the city, as for the way, there is no way yet." ”

"Then let's attack!" Guan Yu arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen please fight!" ”

"The plan to break the enemy was found in mutual temptation, and now that Wei is ironclad, there is only one or two temptations first." Liu Chan nodded, looked at the map and said in a deep voice: "This Guancheng is located in Guling, and it is difficult to support the left and right camps in a short time, so you can lead two thousand soldiers and horses to attack it, general." ”

Guan Yu was overjoyed when he heard this: "The last general is ordered!" ”

It's not that Liu Chan doesn't give Guan Yu more soldiers and horses, but these Guancheng camps are located between the mountains and mountains, and the soldiers and horses can't be used in many ways, and bringing 2,000 soldiers and horses is the limit.

Guan Yu said: "Without further ado, the last general will lead the army to attack." ”

Liu Chan ordered: "Huang Xu, you will go with the general." ”

Huang Xu gave his hand to receive the order: "No! ”

The next day, Guan Yu led his troops to Liu Chan to let him attack under the Guancheng, this Guancheng was established by the mountain side, built at the mountain pass, the Guancheng is not big, no more than ten meters long, but it is six meters high, only tens of meters wide flat land outside, very narrow.

When Guan Yu's 2,000 soldiers and horses arrived at the pass, the soldiers were very crowded, and many soldiers were standing on the road behind them and on the mountain.

Guan Yu sat on the red rabbit horse, looked at the Guan Cheng in front of him, and exclaimed: "Although there is no camp to help on the left and right, it is extremely dangerous!" ”

This red rabbit horse, but not Lu Bu's red rabbit horse, the horse also has a lifespan, although the red rabbit horse did not die, but as early as three years ago it was powerless to fight, Guan Yu's crotch This red rabbit is bred with the old red rabbit as a stallion, but compared to the old red rabbit, this young red rabbit is still slightly inferior.

Guan Yu was talking, only to see a burst of wolf smoke suddenly rising in Guan Cheng, the wolf smoke was very thick, and it went straight to the sky.

Hearing this, Huang Xu hurriedly said: "The Wei army has lit the wolf smoke, and reinforcements will arrive in the rear soon, so we need to take the city before their reinforcements arrive." ”

"Don't worry!" Guan Yu waved his hand, holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, urging the horse to come to the pass, but he wanted to try to persuade the soldiers and horses in the city to surrender.

Guan Yu urged the horse to come to the pass, immediately crossed the sword, looked at the pass and shouted: "Can the defenders of the city wall recognize who I am?" ”

The guards on the head of the city naturally recognized Guan Yu, Guan Yu's recognition was too high, but he was not frightened by Guan Yu, pointed at Guan Yu and shouted: "It's Guan Yu's old horseman, you guys are also seventy or eighty, you dare to go to the battlefield, let me shoot him with arrows!" ”
