Chapter 111: Jumping Out of the Encirclement

"Carving insect plan!" Jiang Wei received the secret report and couldn't help but scoff. Deng Ai's 30,000 horses, over the mountains and wading through the water, actually dared to divide the army into four ways, his own 50,000 troops to work at ease, no matter which way to break it is more than easy, Jiang Wei even doubted whether Deng Ai was seeking merit and cutting the square inch, and divided the troops to advance, but it was a big violation of the common sense of soldiers, just by virtue of this, Jiang Wei thought that Deng Ai was bound to lose.

"Report, General Qiyu, Zhuge Xu, the assassin of Yongzhou of Wei State, commanded 30,000 troops and has conquered Yinping Bridge!" Jiang Wei was thinking about a plan to break the enemy, and the sentry cavalry suddenly reported the latest battle report.

Jiang Wei stood up suddenly, his face turned pale, and asked: "I have written to Your Majesty to ask Zhang Yi to lead troops to garrison Yinping Bridge, why did Yinping Bridge fall?" ”

"General Zhang Yi did not come to Yinping Bridge, and when Zhuge Xu captured Yinping Bridge, Yinping Bridge only had hundreds of defenders, and he was powerless to resist at all." The sentry rider said truthfully.

Jiang Wei frowned, obviously this situation greatly surprised him, and the deputy general Ning Sui said: "I just received a secret report from Chengdu, after the general wrote the book, Huang Haojin offered slander, saying that the soldiers of the world, the general has been in charge of two-thirds, there are 50,000 soldiers in the army, and 30,000 soldiers in the Han are enough to resist the enemy. His Majesty listened to the rumors, so he did not send troops. ”

"Boldly castrate, mislead the country and harm the people, the Han Dynasty, I am about to fall into the hands of this person, and it is difficult to solve the hatred in my heart with a thousand knives!" When Jiang Wei heard that Huang Hao was behind his back, he was so angry that he was furious.

"General, the Yinping Bridge has been lost, and our army's way back has been broken, what should we do?" Ning Sui asked worriedly.

Although Jiang Wei hated Huang Hao, at this moment, he was helpless, and the loss of Yinping Bridge disrupted Jiang Wei's overall deployment. Yinping Bridge is the stronghold connecting Hanzhong and Yuzhong, and it is also the only way to the Sword Pavilion in Yuzhong, and the Wei army's hand is indeed ruthless enough, turning Yuzhong into a Jedi death ground, trapping Jiang Wei's army here.

At this moment, Jiang Wei can be regarded as realizing the true combat intention of the Wei army, Deng Ai's men and horses came to attack the city, not to fight a decisive battle with themselves, but to drag themselves in the middle of the block, cut off the return of the Yinping Bridge, the main force of the Shu army will be trapped in the middle and unable to move, sitting back and watching the loss of Hanzhong, the destruction of Shu and powerless.

Don't sit still! Jiang Wei immediately adjusted his strategy and decided to abandon Yuzhong, recapture Yinping Bridge, and reopen the road to Yang'an Pass.

"Deng Ai's army is in hot pursuit, and a general must be intercepted after being broken, who can deserve it?" Jiang Wei summoned the generals in front of the tent and asked.

Before the words fell, a general stepped forward and said awe-inspiringly: "The last general is willing to go." ”

Jiang Wei regarded it as not someone else, it was Zhao Guang, the second son of Zhao Yun, the general of Yamen, who nodded approvingly: "The tiger father has no dogs!" Deng Ai will take the mouth of Xinjiang Chuankou when he advances to the east, and he will order you to lead 3,000 troops to guard the mouth of Xinjiangchuankou, and there must be no mistake. ”

Zhao Guang said generously: "The last general will take the order." Please rest assured that as long as the last general is still alive, Deng Ai will never be allowed to cross the mouth of the river. Zhao Guang took the order and left.

Jiang Wei gave the order, immediately set up camp, and the army headed towards Yinping Bridge.

I can't help but say that Jiang Wei's decisiveness, the policy of retreating eastward was established, and there was no mud and water at all, before the Wei army Deng Ai completed the encirclement, Jiang Wei's army had already jumped out of the encirclement and rushed towards the direction of Yinping Bridge.

After Yongzhou Thorn Shi Zhuge Xu took the Yinping Bridge lightly, he stationed troops to guard the key pass near the Yinping Bridge. When Jiang Wei's army arrived, Zhuge Xu's camp had already been set up and was ready for battle.

In terms of pure comparison of troops, the number of Jiang Wei's army is better than Zhuge Xu, but the terrain near Yinping Bridge is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if Jiang Wei wants to eliminate Zhuge Xu and seize Yinping Bridge, it is almost an impossible task. If the two sides form a confrontation here, the situation is obviously unfavorable to Jiang Wei, Deng Ai's army is in hot pursuit, and may come at any time, if the Yinping Bridge cannot be taken as soon as possible, the Shu army will inevitably fall into the front and rear of the Wei army.

In the face of the extremely grim situation, Jiang Wei is not in a hurry, Zhuge Xu can be regarded as an old opponent, in the repeated Northern Expeditions, Jiang Wei has fought with him many times, this person is fierce and timid, brave and strategic, compared to Deng Ai Zhonghui, the difference is not a star and a half.

Jiang Weiling led the deputy general Ning Sui with 10,000 troops, erected more flags, and marched in the direction of Konghan Valley with great fanfare, while he led the main force to silence the flags and quietly approached Yinping Bridge. In order to make the momentum bigger, Ning Sui dragged a branch behind the horse's tail, and the smoke and dust all the way to the sky, making the formation like a thousand troops.

Zhuge Xu was shocked when he heard the news, and said: "Jiang Wei's army actually rushed to Kong Han Valley, and it will attack Yongzhou if it goes!" My army of all roads is cutting down Shu, and now Yongzhou is empty, if it is attacked by Jiang Wei, our army's back roads will be cut off! At the moment, Zhuge Xu left a team of soldiers and horses to guard the Yinping Bridge, and the main force immediately retreated north and returned to Yongzhou.

Jiang Wei heard that Zhuge Xu's army had withdrawn, and immediately led his troops to kill, Yinping Bridge only left thousands of Wei troops, how to resist Jiang Wei's tiger and wolf army, from the launch of the attack to the end of the battle, it was only half an hour, Jiang Wei killed and scattered the Wei soldiers, burned their camps, and captured the Yinping bridgehead.

Ning Sui also received the news that Zhuge Xu was going north, and immediately turned around and went south, to Yinping Bridge to meet Jiang Wei.

When Zhuge Xu got the news of the loss of Yinping Bridge, he knew that Jiang Wei had fallen for his plan and hurried back to Yinping Bridge.

After Zhuge Xu returned to Yinping Bridge, except for the corpses all over the ground and the camp where the fire was not extinguished, not even a living person was seen, Jiang Wei's army had already passed through Yinping Bridge half a day ago and headed east.

The adjutant general suggested: "Jiang Weifang is more than half a day, and the general will definitely be able to catch up with his troops at this time." ”

Zhuge Xu glared at him and said: "Jiang Wei has always used soldiers like a god, our army has lost the advantage of geography, if we pursue at this time, we will definitely be ambushed by Jiang Wei." "Zhuge Xu and Jiang Wei have dealt with each other more than once, and in Jiang Wei's hands, Zhuge Xu has suffered more than one defeat, and Zhuge Xu is still apprehensive about Jiang Wei's power. With the geographical advantage of Yinping Bridge, Zhuge Xu is still sure to be able to stop Jiang Wei, but the risk of chasing Jiang Wei at the end of Yinping is conceivable, and Zhuge Xu does not want to follow in the footsteps of Zhang He's death in Mumendao. Therefore, Zhuge Xu garrisoned Yinping Bridge and did not pursue.

After Jiang Wei led the army through the Yinping Bridge, he finally jumped out of the encirclement of the Wei army, and Jiang Wei did not dare to delay, leading the army to Yang'an Pass in the starry night.

As soon as they reached Baishui Pass, they saw that there was dust in front of them, and a group of people and horses appeared in sight, and everyone was discolored.
