Chapter 329 Don't dare to underestimate it

In order to prevent the surrender of troops from rebelling, Liu Chan took the initiative to set a trap and deliberately lured the surrender of troops to rebel.

A few days later, Liu Chan led his troops to Gangneung.

On the Fancheng side, Sima Yi also led his troops to Zengkouchuan, north of Fancheng.

Now that the flood waters have receded, everything has returned to normal on the Sagaguchi River, and the ground has dried up after two days of exposure.

However, the scene on the ground is a little shocking.

I saw that on the original Cao army camp in Zengkouchuan, there were rotting corpses everywhere, and these corpses were Cao soldiers who had not been flooded a few days ago.

They were not good at water, and they were swallowed up by the flood, and the Jingzhou army captured more than 17,000 people, and more than 3,000 people, and stayed here forever.

The corpses had long been soaked in the water, but now that the flood waters had receded and the sun was shining, the corpses had begun to decompose, and there was a foul smell from the Zengkou River for more than ten miles, and countless flies and insects were flying.

Sima Yi was leading the army in the direction of Zengkou River, and the scout Pegasus came, only to see that his face was a little pale, and he said to Sima Yi with a frightened face: "General, ahead...... The front can't go any further! ”

Sima Yi's face sank when he heard this, when he was on the road, he had already received the news that there was a big flood near Fancheng, and Sima Yi had already guessed the fate of the 20,000 troops in the ban.

20,000 landlubbers encountered a flood, and the enemy was a Jingzhou army that was good at water warfare, so it was impossible for these 20,000 soldiers and horses to escape from Ascension.

Now looking at the scout's face, hearing what the scout said, Sima Yi naturally knew why the soldier said that he couldn't advance.

Zeng Kouchuan was afraid that there were corpses all over the place. And now it is dog weather, the weather is hot, the body soaked in water has been exposed to the sun, and Sima Yi himself doesn't dare to think about it.

"Take a detour!" Seeing that the scout was still talking, Sima Yi waved his hand and stopped the scout.

If the soldiers saw the situation of Zeng Kouchuan, then his tens of thousands of soldiers and horses would inevitably be in turmoil and would not dare to fight Guan Yu.

Sima Yi looked at Xiahoudun and said, "General Xiahou, please bring some henchmen to deal with the situation of Zeng Kouchuan."

Now that the weather is hot, the corpses are flowing with the waves, and the nearby water source must also be contaminated, so clean up the nearby water source again to prevent the soldiers from getting sick. ”

"Pass on the scriptures, from now on, all soldiers and horses, regardless of people and animals, are not allowed to drink raw water, they must drink boiled hot water, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

"No!" The crowd surrendered their orders.

Xiahoudun then personally led a few hundred of his own soldiers to dispose of Zeng Kouchuan's body, while Sima Yi led the main army around Zeng Kouchuan and established a camp in the northwest direction ten miles away from Fancheng.

At this time, Guan Yu also led his troops to Fancheng again and set up camp outside the city.

Guan Yu led Guan Ping to the city, looking at Fancheng from afar, Guan Ping said: "After the flood receded, the ground was not dry, and when our army could not come over in Xiangyang, the soldiers in Fancheng came out to repair the city, and now they have rested for two days, but it is ......"

Guan Ping looked at Fan Cheng after resting, and felt a little uncomfortable.

In order to attack Fancheng, thousands of soldiers have been killed, although a flood has submerged Yu Ban's 20,000 troops. However, the defenders of Fancheng took the opportunity to repair the city.

Guan Yu said with a disdainful face: "It's just repairing, not recasting the new city, besides, the materials for them to repair the city wall are also temporarily raised, which looks solid on the surface, but in fact, it is vulnerable, let the trebuchet continue to bombard." ”

A scout urged the horse to come and reported to Guan Yuyu: "General Qiyu, Sima Yi has led his troops to camp in the northwest of Fancheng, and on the side of Zengkouchuan, Xiahoudun is sending troops to clean up the corpses and clean up the river, do you want to send troops......"

Guan Yu waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about Zeng Kouchuan's side, if those corpses are not cleaned up by Xiahoudun, I will also send troops to clean them up." And if we don't clean up the corpses, it's also a hidden danger for us, and as for the nearby rivers, we also need water, so cleaning up the rivers is also good for us.

By the way, many of those corpses must have entered the river, and from now on, both people and animals, drinking water must be boiled to prevent the plague! If anyone drinks raw water because of the heat, cut it immediately! ”

When marching to war, the most terrible thing is not the enemy, but the plague, the climate.

Looking at the major wars of the Three Kingdoms, almost all of them have the shadow of epidemics, and the main causes of epidemics are nothing more than water and soil adaptation, climate change, and drinking raw water.

And now that there has just been a flood in Zengkou River, in addition to Cao Jun's corpse, there must also be wild beasts in the mountains and forests that have been drowned by the flood, and the corpses have entered the river, and the water source has been polluted.

Zhang Zhongjing, Hua Tuo stayed in Jingzhou for a few years, and Liu Chan also raised this kind of question, so Guan Yu also knew to let the soldiers drink boiling water to prevent the plague.

After Guan Yu finished ordering the soldiers, he immediately said: "Sima Yi has established a camp in the northwest direction? Let's go, follow me to see what kind of ability this scholar has, which makes Adou so jealous! ”

Guan Yu said, and urged the war horse to go straight to the direction of Sima Yi's camp.

After a while, everyone came to a hillside and looked at Sima Yi's camp from afar.

Guan Ping stared at the camp established by Sima Yi for a long time before he said: "Father, this Sima Yi really has some ability, and the child has been watching it for a long time, but he doesn't see any flaws!" ”

Guan Yu frowned and nodded.

Because he didn't see any flaws either.

During the entire Three Kingdoms period, there were not many people who were proficient in the art of war, and the top level was Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao, Sima Yi, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun and others.

They are truly first-class commanders, and there are not many flaws in their ability and character.

Although Sima Yi's ability to command in the field is not as good as Zhuge Liang, his defensive ability, even Zhuge Liang, may not be able to surpass him.

Encampment is the most basic knowledge of a commander, and the ability of a commander can be seen from the camp.

Guan Yu looked at Sima Yi's camp, frowned and shook his head: "This camp is indeed seamless, if you lead the troops to attack, I can't take advantage, I really underestimate Sima Yi." ”

Guan Ping sighed and said, "This Sima Yi is so powerful, I think I have to retreat to Xiangyang." ”

Guan Yu sneered: "This camp is indeed seamless, our army is less than Cao's army, so naturally there is no way to help him." But does Sima Yi dare to go out of the camp to fight me?

The soldiers and horses under his command were all mobilized from Yuzhou and Yanzhou, and they were not border soldiers, and they had not experienced war, even if there were many people, what was there to fear?

Now that Fancheng has been besieged for more than a month, there is not much food and grass in the city, although I can't help Sima Yi, but as long as I continue to besiege Fancheng, after a period of time, Fancheng is out of ammunition and food, but Sima Yi has to go out of the camp to fight with me.

As long as he dares to come out, it will be a dead end! ”
