This feeling is from the heart, in the eyes of everyone, Jiang Wei will always be so energetic, high-spirited, forge ahead, again and again in the Northern Expedition, he has always been on the front line, is the evergreen tree of Shu Han, the immortal pine, with his burly shoulders, supporting a piece of the sky of Shu Han.

However, at this moment, Jiang Wei has a feeling of prostration and powerlessness, he feels tired, he feels tired, and many years of fighting have left countless wounds on him, but this is not the point, the point is that his heart is very tired and tired, and he even suspects that all the efforts he has made in the past few decades are in vain and useless.

The Shuhan Building is about to fall, and Jiang Wei feels that it is difficult to support it alone. It has been half a year since the retreat to the Sword Pavilion, but the offensive of the Wei army seems to have never been weakened, and the combat power supported by the huge national strength has reached the point of appalling, all say that there is no grain for thousands of miles, and the rugged and difficult Shu road has repeatedly frustrated the Northern Expedition of the Shu army, and the trouble of grain and grass has always tormented the Northern Expeditioners of the Shu and Han dynasties like a nightmare, but the same dilemma in the hands of Wei does not seem to be a problem.

The momentum of Wei's offensive has never diminished, the day of withdrawal is far away, Jiang Wei's counterattack plan has become more and more slim, and now it seems that the plan to gather troops and gather valleys is a completely failed plan.

What made Jiang Wei even more worried was that when Shu Han was in danger, his former allies fell into the well and took advantage of the fire to rob, and Wu State brazenly sent troops to capture Yong'an Jiangzhou in the name of aid, and the entire three counties of Badong all fell, making the already dangerous situation in Shuzhong even worse.

Although the Shu Han court sent a large army led by Zhuge Zhan to resist, Jiang Wei was faintly worried. Although Zhuge Zhan is famous, he is a layman when it comes to fighting. Although Jiang Wei is plain and Zhuge Zhan has different political opinions. But he did not have a deep hostility towards his mentor Zhuge Liang's only son, not to mention that Zhuge Zhan's success or failure determined the future and fate of the Shu Han Dynasty, and Jiang Wei had been paying attention to the battle situation in Yundi.

The scene that Jiang Wei didn't want to see the most still happened, the battle of Qingyangpu, the Shu army was defeated, and Zhuge Zhan was killed. Jiang Wei couldn't help but sigh.

However, this Lu Kang, who had never been confronted by Jiang Wei, followed the victory in Yundong, and then made a surprise attack and captured Fucheng, an important town in northern Sichuan. Jiang Weijun, who was originally far away from Wu Jun, suddenly narrowed the distance, and the situation in the Sword Pavilion suddenly became tense.

Lu Kang sent a letter to Jiang Wei at this time, but he was just throwing stones to ask for directions. The overall situation in Shuzhong is undecided. Lu Kang didn't expect Jiang Wei to surrender at this time. And Jiang Wei's loyalty to Shu Han is even more unmatched, and how can it be tempted by a mere high-ranking official.

But the loss of Fucheng was undoubtedly the biggest shock to the entire Sword Pavilion.

Although Fucheng is still south of Jiangyou and hundreds of miles away from the Sword Pavilion, Fucheng is the only way from Chengdu to the Sword Pavilion and the center of the grain road of the Sword Pavilion. When the news of the loss of Fucheng came, the hearts of the entire Sword Pavilion army were fluctuating and panicked.

Zhang Yi, the general of the left chariot cavalry, quickly broke into Jiang Wei's tent. Said anxiously: "Boyo, Fucheng is lost." The military rations stored in the Sword Pavilion are not enough to support half a month, what should we do? ”

The food and grass and logistical supplies of the Sword Pavilion have always been relatively painful. Jiang Wei's original advance base was in Hanzhong, and both Hanzhong and Yinping Wudu had the Shu army's tuntian, and most of the military food supply could be self-sufficient except for part of the supply from Chengdu, so that the consumption of long-distance grain transportation could be reduced. But after the loss of Hanzhong, these tuntian places naturally could not be counted on, and the grain and grass expenses of the 50,000 army of the Sword Pavilion all relied on Chengdu to supply.

Huang Hao suggested to Liu Chan that the grain and grass supplied to the Sword Pavilion should be transported twice a month, so that the army of the Sword Pavilion could ensure that there was a month's grain stockpile, which could reduce the supply pressure on Chengdu, and on the other hand, it could effectively prevent the general of the army from being disobedient.

Liu Chan was overjoyed, so he acted according to Huang Hao's words, and sent grain and grass to the Sword Pavilion on the fifteenth day of each month, and for half a year, he has been implementing such a plan.

Although this grain transportation plan has caused many criticisms among the front-line soldiers, because the entire transportation line is in the rear, there is no need to worry about the sneak attack of the Wei army, and there has been no shortage of grain and grass on the front line, so almost everyone ignores a potential crisis.

Although the grain storage of the Sword Pavilion is nominally needed for a month, in fact, it is only at the beginning of the month and the middle of the month when the grain and grass arrive, the granary of the Sword Pavilion will be full, and sometimes because of the road and weather conditions, the grain transportation fleet will have some delays, sometimes it will be three or two days late, and the inventory of the grain and grass of the Sword Pavilion will sometimes be reduced to only ten days of stock.

And this time when the Wu army attacked Fucheng, the grain convoy was delayed in Mianzhu for a few days because of the rain, and did not arrive at Fucheng, because of this, these grains and grass luckily did not fall into the hands of the Wu army, but it became a luxury to transport it to the Sword Pavilion.

And the grain and grass inventory of the Sword Pavilion only has more than ten days of stock left.

This is undoubtedly fatal!

Zhang Yi is also in charge of the affairs of the baggage camp, he has already scolded the damn Huang Hao thousands of times in his heart, the daily cost of the 50,000 army is huge, once the army runs out of food, the consequences are unimaginable, Zhang Yi has nothing to do, he can only come to Jiang Wei to discuss countermeasures.

Liao Hua, the general of the right chariot, was also present, and immediately asked for his life: "Fucheng is very important, there is no room for loss, a certain is willing to lead an army and swear to recapture Fucheng!" ”

Jiang Wei's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The walls of Fucheng are strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if it weren't for Lu Kang's sneak attack, how could the Wu people succeed?" Now that the Wu army in Fucheng is garrisoned by at least fifty or sixty thousand horses, how many soldiers and horses do you plan to bring to recapture Fucheng? ”

Liao Hua couldn't help but be speechless, according to general military common sense, the siege army must have at least two or three times the strength of the defenders to break the city, and it also depends on the quality of equipment and morale of both sides, and now the strength of the Wu army in Fucheng is equivalent to the Shu army of the entire Sword Pavilion, even if all the Shu troops of the Sword Pavilion are transferred to attack the city, they may not be able to capture it. What's more, the offensive of the Wei army outside the Sword Pavilion was like a tide, and the defenders of the Sword Pavilion could only rely on the dangerous terrain to support it, and they couldn't draw extra troops to attack Fucheng at all.

"According to the opinion of the Beryot, how shall we respond?" Liao Hua said helplessly.

Jiang Wei's deep gaze suddenly shot out two cold rays, and he said in a deep voice word by word: "The only way to do this is to give up the Sword Pavilion!" (To be continued......)
