PS: This is an anti-theft chapter, genuine readers, please subscribe later.
If the loss of Longxi is only to hurt the skin of Wei, then the loss of Guanzhong can be said to be a wound, which Jia Chong knows very well, since ancient times, those who have won Guanzhong have won the world, Zhou, Qin, and Han Gai can not be outside, Cao Cao also really laid the foundation of Cao Wei after getting Guanzhong.
What's more, Guanzhong is still the only way to Yizhou, and all the grain and grass of the Zhonghui Corps currently fighting in Yizhou are supplied by Guanzhong, once Guanzhong is lost, this is almost a devastating blow to the Zhonghui Corps.
Therefore, the importance of Guanzhong is naturally self-evident, but at this moment, the foundation of the country is being greatly threatened by the failure of the Battle of Jieting, and Jia Chong is also worried that Guanzhong will not be able to hold it, so he proposed that Sima Zhao transfer part of Zhonghui's army back to Guanzhong to help Sima Wang guard Chang'an, after all, there are almost no soldiers in the Luoyang area now.
Sima Zhao shook his head lightly, mobilizing Zhonghui's men and horses to help, that would mean the failure of his entire strategic system, which was unacceptable to the ambitious Sima Zhao.
Now the situation in Yizhou has reached the most critical moment, Zhong Hui has conquered the city in Yizhou, as long as Fucheng is taken, the entire Chenghan Avenue can be opened, and the situation in the entire Yizhou will be opened.
But isn't Sima Zhao worried about losing in Guanzhong?
Of course he was worried. The importance of Guanzhong is not clear to Sima Zhao, once Guanzhong is lost, the entire Heluo will be in danger, and this kind of thing that endangers the rule of the Sima family, Sima Zhao will definitely do his best to prevent it.
Although there are no troops to be deployed in the Luoyang area now, Sima Zhao is not too panicked. Although Sima Wang only suffered defeat in Jieting, and did not destroy the whole army, although he lost more than 20,000 troops, but Sima Wang's hands still had nearly 80,000 troops, and the main force still existed. Even if Sima Wang no longer has the ability to regain his strength and attack Longxi again, it is still more than enough to defend himself, as long as he can hold out for another three or two months, Sima Zhao can mobilize soldiers and horses from other places to rescue.
Sima Wang's ability, Sima Zhao is very clear, can only say that the failure of the Battle of Jieting was an accident, as Jia Chong said, Sima Wang was defeated in the new equipment. It does not mean that Sima Wang's ability is discounted, as the pillar of the Wei military circle, Sima Zhao's trust in Sima Wang is still very deep.
Guanzhong has always been an important defensive area of the Wei army, and the previous northern expeditions of Shu Han were concentrated in the area of Guanzhong and Longyou, which also directly prompted Wei to continuously strengthen the defense system of the Guanlong region, which has been accumulated for decades, with Chang'an as the center. The defense of Chencang, Meixian, Wugong, Fufeng and other cities is like golden soup.
When Sima Zhao was the general of Anxi, he was stationed in Yongliang. He is well aware of the defense system and dangerous terrain in Guanzhong, and Sima Zhao believes that with Sima Wang's ability, there will not be much problem in holding Chang'an, not to mention anything else, it is the dangerous pass of Chencang. If Liu Yin wants to leap forward, it is not an easy task.
Chang'an, as the former capital of the Han Dynasty and the core area of Guanzhong Sanfu, is completely comparable to Luoyang in terms of the solidity of its walls. Sima Wang sat in Chang'an with 80,000 soldiers, and Sima Zhao really couldn't think of any reason why Guanzhong might not be able to hold it.
Can a small failure shake Sima Zhao's determination to win the world? This is simply a big joke in the world, Sima Zhao can sit in this position today, how much more than a little bit of wind and rain he has experienced, he has already downplayed the success or failure of honor and disgrace, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, the victory or defeat of a battle can not determine anything, the Wei State has a deep heritage, how can Liu Yin, a clown who jumps off the beam, shake it?
Sima Wang had already regained his composure, and said calmly: "Zhonghui's army must not be moved lightly, and I believe that Zichu can be qualified for the post of guarding Guanzhong." What's more, Chang'an only needs to hold on for three or four months, and at that time, the people from various states and counties will be transferred, and they will be recruited in person. Let's take a look at what kind of person this Liu Yin is, who can turn the desolate land upside down. ”
Jia Chong said with some concern: "If you don't adjust the bell to return to the army, I'm afraid that Sima Hussar's side will be tighter, and the gains and losses in Guanzhong will be greater than Yizhou, and the king of Jin will think twice." ”
Yizhou is a vested interest, how can Sima Zhao give up easily, and Liu Yin's sneak attack on Longxi is quite a bit of a siege of Wei to save Zhao, and how Sima Zhao is willing to give in easily. At this point, Sima Zhao is still very stubborn, he always thinks that Liu Yin is just a problem of ringworm scabies, not enough trouble, whether it is when Liu Yin first entered Longxi or after the victory in the street pavilion, Sima Zhao's view has not changed at all.
He chuckled lightly and said: "I want to swallow my 80,000 troops in Guanzhong in one bite, I think he Liu Yin doesn't have such a big appetite, Chang'an City is solid, Chen Cangguan is as solid as a rock, I want to see, with a few new pieces of his equipment, he can take down my Tiger Distance Dragon Pan's Guanzhong Sanfu?" ”
┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄
With Sima Wang's retreat, the siege of the street pavilion was solved without a fight.
Fu Zhi wanted to lead the troops to pursue, Liu Yin saw that the Wei army had a strict banner and a neat queue, so he stopped Fu Zhi and said: "Sima Wang has a degree of advance and retreat, and the formation is strict, and he is worthy of being a famous general of Wei. "At that moment, the summons ordered all the troops not to pursue, and to go down to the old city of Jieting.
At this moment, Fu He saw the Wei people retreating on the mountain, at first he thought it was the Wei people's plan to lure the enemy, and did not pay attention to it, and it didn't take long to see the flag of the Shu army fluttering, it turned out that the reinforcements of the Shu army had arrived, and the Shu army on the mountain cheered, and Fu Yan took people up the mountain to meet Liu Yin in person.
Liu Yin couldn't help but be deeply moved when he saw Fu Yan covered in blood, and said: "Father-in-law guards the street pavilion, refuses Sima Wang, and works hard, so he should be the first to do this battle." ”
Fu Yan smiled and said: "When Ma Yan's army was defeated, it was defeated on the water source, Wenxuan used a clever trick to store water on the mountain to solve the worries of our army, and the Wei people wanted to take down the street pavilion again, which is tantamount to a fool's dream." If you want to talk about this first achievement, it has to be Wenxuan. ”
Liu Yin smiled slightly, Ma Jian back then, if he could really let the soldiers drink water, why worry about not being able to hold the street pavilion, history repeating itself again, he could not repeat the mistakes of the past, there was enough food, grass and drinking water as a guarantee, and it was not difficult to hold the street pavilion. If Ma Tan only became the laughing stock of later generations because of good fortune, then he himself will be here today (to be continued.) )
