Chapter 450: Recovering the Sword Pavilion
PS: Genuine readers, please read it later, thank you for your support.
Sima Wang started from Chang'an, has been along the north bank of Weishui to the west, the important towns on the Guanlong Road Huaili, Wugong, Meixian are on the north bank of Weishui, but after arriving at the North Plains, due to the front of the Wugong Mountain, Guanlong Avenue turned south, crossed Weishui, along the south bank of Weishui and then westward.
After crossing the river from Kitahara, we entered Gojogahara.
Usually, there are business trips through this place, and they generally take a ferry to cross the river at Weishui Ferry, so the boats of Weishui Ferry are endless, and it is very prosperous and lively.
However, since the war in Longxi, the traffic of Guanlong Avenue has been interrupted, the business travel has plummeted, and the original bustling ferry port has become deserted, only a few ferries are moored diagonally or horizontally at the side of the ferry, and those boatmen are bored to sit on the side of the ship, sighing and sighing, and a few boatmen are unwilling to look at the crossing of Guanlong Avenue, expecting business to come to the door.
Suddenly, the sharp-eyed boatmen became excited, for they heard the sound of horses' hooves on the official road, but when the smile had just climbed up their brows, it immediately froze, and what appeared before them was not a merchant traveler, but a huge army, with flags fluttering and armor distinct.
These boatmen immediately panicked, according to the general practice, the army appeared here, that is to requisition their ships without compensation, and it is just a matter of requisitioning them without compensation, I am afraid that these officials and military masters will lose their temper and smash your ship if they are unhappy, and even lose their own lives. It's not easy to earn some money to support your family, and if you do these things, it will be eight lifetimes of mold.
At first glance, these boatmen appeared to be from the government army. Frightened immediately it was a paddle of oars. Rocking the oar. Flying also fled from the Weishui ferry.
When Hu Shi rushed to the ferry, he originally expected to be able to requisition the ferry, but he didn't expect that when these boatmen saw the officers and soldiers coming, they fled faster than rabbits, and in less than a moment, they had already fled to the middle of the river.
The adjutant general was furious and said: "These Diao people, they are so rude, they really deserve to be killed!" Come. Shoot me to death with arrows! ”
The archers were ordered to draw arrows with their bows, but Hu Shi waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's just some unscrupulous people, and it's useless to kill them." Hu Shi knew very well that it was these officers and soldiers who were accustomed to arrogance and domineering on weekdays, which made these ordinary people fearful and fearful like tigers, and now these boatmen had fled far away, even if they killed a few with arrows. It is impossible to get the ferry back, but it makes the people here even more afraid.
"What about the ferry? There are no ferries. How to get by in Weishui? The adjutant general said stupidly.
Hu Shiye said helplessly: "It can only be the governor of Yuming, and then make a decision." ”
Sima Wang quickly came to the ferry, and when he saw the forward battalion staggering by the river, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Where is Hu Shi?" ”
"The end will be." Hu Shi hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.
"Why are you standing still here?"
"There were a lot of ferries at the ferry, how could the military arrive, these ferries immediately scattered, and they couldn't catch up, and now there is no boat on the ferry, and the last general has nothing to do."
Sima Wang sighed lightly, he rushed to the river in person, and sure enough, he saw that there was not a single boat at the ferry, but on the far river, some boats could be faintly seen fleeing quickly.
The 50,000 troops of the Wei army gathered on the north bank of Weishui, there is no ferry, I am afraid it will be difficult to cross the river, now the military situation is urgent, the situation in Chencang is in danger, Sima Wang can not wait here for a long time no matter what. Sima Wang frowned, took care of it, and ordered the Wei soldiers to go to the nearby mountains and forests, cut down trees, and build pontoon bridges.
Sure enough, there are many people who are easy to do, and the 50,000 troops of the Wei army started together, and soon built a pontoon bridge on the Weishui, and the soldiers of the Wei army, through the pontoon bridge, continuously crossed the Weishui and stepped on the south bank.
Hu Shi and other generals were all happy, and praised Sima Wang's wisdom in unison.
Sima Wang stroked his beard and said with a smile: "For the generals, the land is advantageous, the Wugong Mountain is full of forests, inexhaustible, and the logging is made into a pontoon bridge, which is just for the army to cross the river, and it will not delay the trip." However, the terrain of Wuzhang Yuan is long and narrow, and I am afraid that there will be an ambush of the Shu army, General Hu, you need to send more scouts to find out the military situation, thinking that it is a perfect strategy. ”
Sima Wang's life is handsome, experienced, old-looking, still on the other side, he can see the treacherous terrain of Wuzhang Plain, the best at ambush battles, closer to Chencang, the risk of encountering the enemy's ambush will increase exponentially, Sima Wang has to be cautious, especially when half-crossing, it is the best time for the enemy to ambush war, the forward troops have just stepped on the south bank, and the foothold is not stable, the rear guard troops are still on the pontoon bridge, the defense of the army at this time is undoubtedly the most vulnerable moment, once attacked, the Wei army is difficult to care, It's a difficult situation.
Of course, Hu Shi also knew the importance of the half-crossing time, and he immediately crossed the river first, established a beachhead on the south bank, and advanced in depth to create favorable conditions for covering the crossing of the river by the large army. At the same time, he sent multiple scouts to expand the scope of reconnaissance to ten miles away, covering almost the entire Wuzhangyuan area.

"Brother-in-law, now is a great opportunity, it's time to do it, right?" Fu clenched the steel gun and was eager to try.
Liu Yin is a light face, standing on the top of Qipan Mountain, the situation on the side of Weishui Ferry is unobstructed, originally thought that there is no ferry may delay Sima Wang's army for a day or two, but did not expect Sima Wang to take local materials, build a simple pontoon bridge, and quickly cross the river.
Fu Zhi saw that the Wei army was in the middle of the river at this moment, and the half crossing was the best time to attack, so Fu Zhi proposed that Liu Yin immediately launch an attack to annihilate the Wei army that had already crossed the river.
Liu Yin smiled noncommittally, if from a purely tactical point of view, a half-crossing attack is undoubtedly the best opportunity, at this time the enemy only partially crossed the river, has not yet formed a strong and favorable combat capability, at this time attack, you can easily destroy the enemy who has crossed, and can block the enemy who has not crossed on the north bank, not an inch.
But this is obviously incompatible with Liu Yin's original intention, Liu Yin's plan to besiege the city and send reinforcements is a plan to lure the enemy into depth, by besieging Chen Cang, to create enough pressure on Sima Wang, so that Sima Wang takes the initiative to jump into his encirclement.
And if it was attacked halfway, even though the Wei army that had already crossed the Weishui could easily be annihilated on the south bank, at this moment Sima Wang's main army was stranded (to be continued. )
