Chapter 266: Tearing from Fucheng to Ruocheng
Guan Yi was covered in blood, slashing and slashing thousands of times, and his physical strength was also consumed quickly, but Guan Yi's belief was very firm, and he refused to take half a step back if he swore to death.
With the Yi in front, the auxiliaries behind could have the opportunity to fill the gap with sandbags, and hundreds of sandbags were also a large number, and soon a wall of sandbags more than one person high was formed.
"Prince, retreat to the wall!" One of the Dubo, who was in charge of plugging the gap, said loudly to Guan Yi that if the sandbag wall was higher, Guan Yi might not be able to come back.
Guan Yi fought in front of him to the end, just to buy time to plug the gap, and now that it was done, he didn't dare to fight again, so he immediately turned over and retreated, flying and rolling down behind the sandbag wall, and the hundreds of Guan private soldiers who fought with him were all killed under the city wall.
Wu Bing chased after him and was shot back by a random arrow.
With the concerted efforts of the Shu soldiers, the city wall built with sandbags was also about two zhang high, and the city was temporarily overwhelmed by a crisis.
"Governor, do you want to bombard the walls with catapults again?" Liuping, who is used to sweetness, suggested again.
Lu Kang looked at the white belly of the fish exposed in the east, and shook his head gently, he understood the truth of one go, and then decline, and then exhausted, before there was a big opportunity, but Wu Jun was not able to grasp it, and as soon as the opportunity passed, Wu Jun's morale was obviously frustrated. Originally, the Wu army had been on the road for a day, and the city that had only arrived before dark had no rest after arriving, and immediately put into siege operations, and after a night of tossing, the Wu army was already extremely tired. After all, they are all flesh and blood. It's not made of steel. The continuous marching and fighting are all supported by a spirit and spirit, and it is normal for morale to be low after a long period of attack.
"Order the armies, rest for two hours, and then attack the city!" Lu Kang ordered in a deep voice.
Wu Jun went away like a low tide, and Guan Yi found that his arms could not be lifted as if they were filled with lead, and the wounds in more than a dozen places on his body were burning and painful. Blood stained all the clothes. However, being able to withstand such a fierce offensive of the Wu army, Guan Yi was already quite satisfied.
Guan Yi ordered the soldiers to seize the gap on the battlefield to rest, eat some dry food and drink some water, replenish and recover their strength, he knew very well that the retreat of the Wu army was temporary, and the next battle would only be more brutal than last night.
Smoke rose from the barracks of the Wu army, the smell of food wafted from the barracks, and the exhausted Wu army devoured the food. There is no flawlessness to care about whether today's food is delicious or not, and being able to fill their stomachs is their greatest luxury. Many soldiers threw away their jobs and fell asleep, probably almost exhausted.
Lu Kang was full of energy, he didn't close his eyes all night, and he didn't look tired, his eyes fell on the military map on the case, if everything went well for the Wei army, it should also arrive in Guan County now, and I don't know what kind of resistance they will encounter, but it is foreseeable that Zhong Hui will definitely be able to break through the defense of the Shu army and advance to Chengdu, so Lu Kang can not fall behind the Wei army, and if you want to get to Chengdu first, you must take Yucheng today.
Although Lu Kang is full of confidence in taking Luocheng, this is not a war of attrition but a tough battle, and it is a tough battle that must be won as soon as possible, and the result of victory or defeat is directly related to the fact that Dongwu can pick a few peaches in Yizhou this time, so Lu Kang is still quite cautious.
While the Wu army was eating and sleeping, Lu Kang was already planning the next stage of the attack.
"Report! Qiyu Dadu Governor, the traces of the main force of the Wei army were found west of Ruocheng, and they were heading towards Ruocheng, which was already twenty miles away. "The scout's exploration radius is more than thirty miles, and the movements of the Wei army are the focus of the scouts' reconnaissance, so as to be able to grasp the movements of the Wei army in detail.
Lu Kang couldn't help but be a little surprised, Zhong Hui crossed the mountains and mountains, and the target was Chengdu, but he suddenly turned to Luocheng, what kind of purpose did he live in, Lu Kang was a little difficult to understand.
No matter how important the city is, it is not the last dangerous pass to Chengdu, whether it is Wu or Wei, the ultimate goal is Chengdu, Zhong Hui will go south from Wenshan Road, there is no need to go to Chengcheng at all, and he can force Chengdu from the west road directly to Guan County.
However, although Lu Kang had doubts, he did not prevent his arrangement of troops, and now the Wei army appeared in the west of the city, which was destined to be a bad comer, and Lu Kang could only temporarily put down the plan to attack the city and deal with the Wei army in an all-round way, after all, compared to Guan Yi, Zhong Hui was a strong enemy.
The rumbling drums of the Wu army sounded, and the Wu soldiers, who were still asleep, woke up and immediately assembled.
┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄
Zhong Hui was also a little depressed, originally he had no plan to make a detour to Luocheng, from Wenshan County to the south, pointing directly to Guan County, and stepping through Guan County to see Chengdu.
This would have been a perfect marching plan, but the day before yesterday there was a sudden heavy rain, causing the only mountain road leading to Guan County to be buried by the mud and rocks of the landslide, and it would take at least ten days for a nearly ten miles of mountain road to be cleared.
Ten days? The daylilies were cold, and Zhong Hui didn't have the leisure to delay here, so he immediately ordered to turn to Luocheng, wanting to open another road to Chengdu.
Walking to a place more than twenty miles away from the city, Zhong Hui received a report from the scouts, and it turned out that the Wu army had come to the city of Luoxian one step ahead of them. Zhong Hui was secretly surprised, and said secretly, this Lu Kang really came quickly. However, depending on the situation, Lu Kang has not yet been able to conquer Ruoxian, Zhong Hui's eyes suddenly lit up, isn't this an opportunity given to him by God?
The Wu army was trapped under the city of Yuxian, and if the Wei State launched an attack at this time, Lu Kang would be equivalent to being attacked by the enemy on his back, and it would be easier to eliminate him.
After defeating Jiang Wei, Zhong Huizhi was complacent, believing that there was no opponent in Shuzhong, and conquering Chengdu was just around the corner, but the real opponent of the Wei army in Shu was Wu. Since sooner or later he will have to fight a vicious battle with Wu Guo for Yizhou, it should be easy to simply deal with him under the city of Yuxian.
After learning the news of the Wu army, Zhong Hui immediately waved his army eastward and attacked the land of the Wu army, putting on an offensive posture and being aggressive.
At this time, Lu Kang was already not to be outdone, and he was ready to fight, wanting to compete with Zhong Hui.
A new round of tearing war between the two sides moved from Fucheng to Luocheng. (To be continued......)
