Chapter 743: Conquering Wuzhai at Night (1)
Compared with the three passes of the self-contained nature, the five villages headed by the cattle head village do not have the kind of extremely dangerous terrain, the biggest feature of the five villages is that the five villages are connected with each other, interlocking, each other is the angle, when the enemy attacks a village, the four villages respond.

Luo Xian set the time of the attack at night, the difficulty is obviously much greater than that of the day, the terrain between the five villages is complicated, all of them are winding sheep intestine paths, criss-crossed, even if you take such a road during the day, you will get lost, and at night, the situation is only worse.
However, Luo Xian has a detailed map provided by A Jian, and has a preliminary grasp of the situation in Wuzhai.
Now Luo Xian's biggest reliance is that the Shu army occupies an absolute advantage in strength, an infantry army plus three cavalry corps, the strength of the Shu army has reached 40,000 people, and according to the information provided by A Jian, the most defenders in the five villages, Niushou Village, is only 3,000 people, the remaining four villages, each only about 1,000 people, the total strength of the five villages is only seven or eight thousand people, the Shu army has an absolute advantage, Luo Xian has no reason not to use such an advantage.
In view of the deployment of the Di army, Luo Xian decided to adopt a multi-pronged approach, and attacked Niushou Village, Horseshoe Village, Alpaca Village, Jiming Village and Wolf Tu Village at the same time, so that they could not take care of each other. The specific arrangement is that Lu Xun, the protector of the Vermilion Bird Army, led 5,000 people from the left battalion of the Vermilion Bird to attack the horseshoe village, Fu Zhao, the protector of the White Tiger Army, led 5,000 people from the left battalion of the White Tiger to attack the alpaca village, Zhou Xu, the protector of the Qilin Army, led 5,000 people from the left battalion of the Qilin to attack Jiming Village, Luo Xian led the 5,000 people of the left battalion of Yong'an to attack the wolftu village, Wang Qi, the deputy governor of the right army, led 10,000 people from the right battalion of the Vermilion Bird and the right battalion of the White Tiger to attack Niushou Village, and Luo Xian led 10,000 people from the right battalion of the Qilin and the right battalion of Yong'an to respond to the five routes.
In addition to Wang Qi leading 10,000 people to attack Niushouzhai, the other four roads only used a battalion of 5,000 people, but compared with the Di defenders, these four roads also occupy an absolute advantage, and the five-to-one ratio of troops makes the attack of the Shu army seem to be easy.
However, the 10,000 people of the right battalion of the Vermilion Bird and the right battalion of the White Tiger led by Wang Ji attacked the head of the five villages, Niushou Village, and the strength of the other party was only three times that of the other party, and Niushou Village, as the head of the five villages, was its hub, so the task on Wang Qi's shoulders was more important than the other four generals.
As the commander-in-chief, Luo Xian must coordinate and command the five-way army, and also bear the task of emergency support.
The generals were ordered to return to the camp to make arrangements. It can be seen that the generals' mood is generally very high, and they have a sense of anticipation for the upcoming night battle, full of confidence, and high morale.
In fact, in the eyes of the generals, there seems to be no suspense in this battle, after all, the Shu army occupies an absolute superiority in strength, with 40,000 people against 7,000 people, this kind of battle can be won almost with your eyes closed. If there is any difficulty, the only thing that worries the generals of the Shu army is what the specific terrain of these five villages is, they still can't know it well, especially in the dark, such a disadvantage will be infinitely magnified, which more or less affects the combat confidence of some generals.
But on the whole, the mood of the Shu army is generally high, which has a great relationship with the repeated victories since the battle with the Di people, and the winning streak will always make the soldiers' confidence full, even if there are more difficulties and obstacles ahead, the same can not shake the determination of the Shu army to win.
After the generals left, Luo Xian said to Wang Ji: "Wang Dudu, the first village of the disaster cow is the head of the five villages of the Di people, and the precautions are very strict, coupled with the dangerous terrain, it is not easy to take it. ”
Wang Ji smiled and said: "The order of the governor of Luodu, the last general will dare not obey, please rest assured that the governor of Shu will take the head of the cow village and live up to the governor's hope." ”
Luo Xian said: "The governor of this battle must not underestimate the enemy, and the town guards the Niushou Village, but a fierce general under Qi Wannian's account, called Li Rulong, only said that this person is good at making a big axe, and has the courage of ten thousand people, Qi Wannian appointed him to guard the Niushou Village and lead the five villages at the same time, which shows Qi Wannian's weight on Li Rulong. According to intelligence and maps, Niushouzhai is adjacent to a stream on three sides, and only one side leads to the avenue, if you attack hard, there will be great casualties, especially in night battles, and you need to be very careful. ”
Wang Ji said: "Luo Dudu rest assured, in Longxi for many years, I still have some understanding of the situation on this side of Gushu Mountain, Niushou Village is known as the head of the five villages, but it also needs the support of the four villages, and now our army has sent four people to cut off the connection between the remaining four villages and Niushou Village, and Niushou Village is isolated and helpless, and it is not difficult to break through. ”
Wang Ji has been the Taishou of Tianshui County for many years, although he has not personally been to Gushu Mountain, but the situation in Beidi County, he still has some understanding, Di people have been in Gushu Mountain for many years, repeatedly went south to plunder, constantly harassed the counties of Yongzhou, and posed a great threat to the security of Yongzhou.
Wang Qi, as the Taishou of Tianshui, is responsible for protecting the territory and the people, but with the strength of his county Taishou, he finally has the heart to eradicate the scourge of the people, and he is also powerless. In those years, in the Yongliang region, Cao Wei's external target was mainly Shu Han, although the Qiang Hu, including the Di people, repeatedly invaded, but the Cao Wei court never regarded them as a big trouble, only as a worry about ringworm.
The Cao Wei court did not do anything, and Wang Qi had the intention to kill the enemy, but he was powerless, at best, he could only protect the territory and the people, and prevent the Di people from attacking Tianshui County. And now that Liu Yin has become the ruler of Yongliang, he has finally dealt a heavy blow to Qianghu, and Wang Ji has also seen the hope of recovering the northern land and eliminating Zhuhu.
In the contest with Qianghu, the Shu army was a triumphant song all the way, continuously eliminating the Xiongnu Hao Sanbu, Malan Qiang Maglong and Lushui Hu Peng Hu and other Qianghu forces that had endangered Yongliang for many years, and at the same time the last force of the Qianghu in the north, the Qi Wannian Department of the Di tribe, was also chasing and fighting, Wang Ji was fortunate to participate in this war, and he was very happy to have a long-cherished wish in his heart for many years.
This time to take on the task of attacking Niushou Village, he is naturally the best, and Wang Ji is also full of confidence, this battle may be a key battle to determine whether the Di people can continue to exist in this land, Wang Ji can have the honor to be the terminator, he is very pleased.
