Chapter 938: Ma Chao Asks Ying to Attack Hanzhong


After hearing Guo Jia's words, Dian Wei's face was suddenly full of embarrassment, and he couldn't help but whisper: "It turns out that this is what it looks like." ”After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhao Yu who was sitting on the dragon chair, and then looked at the civil and military generals around him who were laughing but did not dare to make a sound, Dian Wei hurriedly bowed his head at Zhao Yu and said: "Your Majesty, this time it was Dian Wei who was impulsive, and as a result, it ruined His Majesty's affairs of the court, and I beg Your Majesty to forgive me." ”Looking at Dian Wei's very self-reproachful look, Zhao Yu couldn't help but wave his hand and smile: "Okay, Dian Wei doesn't have to blame himself, I know your loyalty to me very well, and I never blame you." ”That is, Zhao Yu couldn't help but step forward, patted Dian Wei's shoulder, and comforted: "Don't worry, Dian Wei, I will lead you forward this time, because you are my patron saint."

No matter how dangerous the place is, as long as you are here, I will be safe and sound, so I will never let you go alone in Jizhou and lead the army to attack Yizhou alone. ”After hearing Zhao Yu's words, Dian Wei was immediately grateful, and said to Zhao Yu: "Thank you, Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty agrees, Dian Wei will definitely protect Your Majesty in the future, and will never let anyone hurt a single hair of Your Majesty." ”Later, I heard Zhao Yu wave at everyone and say, "Okay guys, let's continue today."

As we said before, this time I decided to send troops to Yizhou to conquer the traitors Cao Pi and Liu Bei in Yizhou.Although our army has defeated Wei many times before, there are still some remaining troops in Wei, and with the soldiers and horses of Shu this time, the enemy army is still not to be underestimated.Therefore, if I want to defeat the troops of Shu Wei this time, I must rely on the help of my generals, otherwise I will not be able to defeat those enemy forces. ”As soon as Zhao Yu's voice fell, Tai Shici, one of the five tiger generals, stood up and bowed to Zhao Yu: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, with the assistance of our generals and ministers, I will definitely do my best to assist Your Majesty, fight Yizhou together, annihilate the enemy army of Yizhou Shu Wei, and help Your Majesty complete the great cause." ”After Tai Shici finished speaking, Zhang Ren, the general of Zhendong on the side, also stood up and bowed to Zhao Yu and said: "We are also willing to sweep together for Your Majesty and help Your Majesty capture the entire Yizhou." ”This time, together with Zhang Ren, Deng Xian, Liu Bi, and Ling Bao, it can be said that they were particularly surprised, to know that the capture of Yizhou was to declare war on Shu Wei at the same time, and although there are some remnants of Shu Wei defeated now, they are all elite generals and good ministers in the army.With these people, it is absolutely difficult to deal with, and if you want to participate in the army attacking Yizhou this time, you must be a person with unique skills.Although Zhang Ren and the others had a position in the land of Yizhou at the beginning, after surrendering to Zhao Yu this time, they looked at the five tiger generals, the unicorn generals, and the four generals of Xichuan in the Zhao army, and they immediately held back their anger.The two are mixed together, and they are not at the same level at all, even if Zhang Ren and others are not convinced, but the strength of the people is there.As the saying goes, strength is king, and the four generals of Xichuan will not accept it.But the good thing is that this general of the Zhao army, even if he is a person with a noble status and status, treats his subordinates and others with interests, and no one has ever put on a show.This point made the four generals of Xichuan particularly relieved, compared to the generals under the command of Yizhou, Hanzhong, and Liu Bei, who were arrogant like proud roosters.This time, I learned that His Majesty was going to order the four of them to lead the soldiers and horses to follow the army to fight Yizhou together, and in the face of such a rare opportunity, how could Zhang Ren and the others miss it.You must know that as a general, everyone is bent on establishing meritorious service, especially generals like Zhang Ren, who came in the middle of the process, and are more eager for military exploits to stabilize their position in the army than those generals who initially followed in the army.In today's parliament, it can also be said that in the military council of more than ten people, Zhao Yu briefly told everyone about the decision to send troops to attack Yizhou.And give the people some time to start preparing, and once the army has finished traveling with food and grass, the whole army will immediately begin to march secretly.If hundreds of thousands of troops want to make a secret march, it is simply impossible, and the reason why Zhao Yu said that the secret march is to temporarily avoid the eyes and ears of the enemy scouts in the city.At night, they traveled quietly in batches, so that by the time the enemy outpost discovered the movement, at least Zhao Yu's army had already set off for a long time.When the time comes, if these outposts want to spread the news to Yizhou as soon as possible, I am afraid that they will need to travel non-stop.In today's critical period of tense war, no one dares to rush in a panic alone, especially in the territory of the enemy army, as long as anyone dares to show off, it is equivalent to wanting the other party to expose their identity.Therefore, if these outposts want to pass the message quietly or safely, they must move carefully, so their speed is naturally much slower.Moreover, in order to speed up the march, Zhao Yu had already taken the lead in ordering the crown prince Zhao Can to lead an army of light cavalry in advance and take the lead in rushing to Bingzhou.Bingzhou began to prepare grain and grass and transported it directly to Liangzhou, while the crown prince Zhao Can led his own princely forces to meet with Zhao Yan, the king of Qin, in Bingzhou, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides waited for the arrival of Zhao Yu's army in the land of Bingzhou.Immediately attacked more than 300,000 troops and drove directly to the land of Liangzhou, which can be said to be non-stop along the way, in order to gain time in order to catch the enemy by surprise.Let's say that when Zhao Yu led the men and horses all the way to the land of Liangzhou, preparing to join up with Liangzhou Ma Chao, Lu Xun and other soldiers and horses.Ma Chao and others had already received this time that Zhao Yu raised troops and horses to prepare to attack Yizhou in person.After learning the news, Ma Chao and the others couldn't help but be overjoyed, since they followed the army to conquer the city gate of Liangzhou in one fell swoop, and took Liangzhou to drive out the Cao Wei family.Although the anger in everyone's hearts was temporarily subsided, it did not dissipate.Especially with Ma Chao as the mainstay, the resentment against the enemy Cao Wei clan has always been hidden in the depths of his heart.And this time, in addition to Cao Wei, there is also Liu Bei of the Shu Kingdom, to say that Liu Bei and Ma Chao do not have much to do with it.But just because Cao Pi is Ma Chao's enemy, there is still a deep blood feud between the two generations of families, but for this matter, Liu Bei not only blamed Cao Pi, but also accepted Cao Pi's defeated army, which made Ma Chao unable to accept this fact.Looking at the secret letter in his hand, Ma Chao immediately summoned Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, Ma Dai, Ma Yunlu, and the military advisor Lu Xun to hold a military meeting and said: "Lu Xun, this time we have received the matter of His Majesty's personal expedition, what are your plans" Lu Xun immediately bowed to everyone and said: "General Hui, this time Your Majesty's personal expedition is to make up your mind to fight to the death with Yizhou."

And I have already said in my heart that the staple food of the army this time will be spent by Liangzhou and Bingzhou, and a few days ago it was just in time for the tax collection, and a lot of grain and grass collected should be enough for hundreds of thousands of troops to support for a year.At present, only General Ma Chao is needed to personally order the recruitment of those Xiqiang soldiers and horses, although the combat effectiveness of these Xiqiang soldiers and horses cannot be compared to the Xiliang cavalry, but these people are particularly belligerent, if they can fight in this expedition to Yizhou, it is also a considerable force. ”After Ma Chao heard this, he immediately nodded, and then spoke: "The matter of inviting Xiqiang to fight will be handed over to me Ma Chao, and I will send a letter to the king of Xiqiang later, saying that I will avenge the use of Cao Pi back then."

Presumably, with this matter, and the addition of the name of my Shenwei Tian General, it will definitely be able to make the King of Xiqiang raise the army of the whole country to assist our army in the war.In addition, isn't there anything else to think about in the military division" Lu Xun heard Ma Chao's strange question for the first time, and immediately couldn't help but wonder: "Anything else can be imagined, I don't know what General Ma Chao means" Ma Chao immediately said to Lu Xunyan: "Your Majesty is waiting for the army to come, there must be a while, and we are idle at this moment."

It is better to take this opportunity to take the lead in sending troops to attack Hanzhong, the only way to Yizhou.If you want to capture Yizhou, you must pass through Hanzhong, which is the throat of Yizhou, and taking Hanzhong will also play a decisive role in our army's attack on Yizhou in the future.So Ma Chao, please ask the military advisor, how about attacking Hanzhong first when our majesty comes this time" But I don't know that after Ma Chao's words, Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, and there was a look of approval in his eyes.couldn't help responding: "This time, General Ma Chao wants to take the opportunity to teach the enemy a lesson in advance, which is also okay, but if we want to send troops to attack Hanzhong, we can't have too many soldiers and horses."

If we have too many men and horses, it will definitely attract the vigilance of Yizhou, looking at the movement of His Majesty's troops this time, it must be for a rapid march, before Yizhou Liu Bei receives the news, launch an attack in advance, and not give Liu Bei a chance to breathe.If, this time, the general suddenly led the army of the country to attack Hanzhong, it would inevitably frighten Liu Bei to think about it for a few days and start to arrange countermeasures. ”Ma Chao further asked: "What the military advisor said is that if our army wants to attack Hanzhong this time, how many troops can only be sent at most, and I still look at the details of the military division." ”"If General Ma Chao is bent on attacking the enemy, then I will only give the general 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will be in the rear."

After speaking, Lu Xun looked at Ma Chao again and said again: "Lu Xun doesn't care how many troops there are in Hanzhong, and who is there to lead the troops, but these 10,000 soldiers and horses are the foundation of the general.If the general accidentally wins, that's what the general should do, but if the general accidentally loses the battle, I can only say that the general is derelict in his duty this time.If the general does not dare, or if he feels that it is dangerous, then it is better to stand still in my city until His Majesty's army comes.After converging with the army, launch a general attack on Hanzhong to avoid unnecessary losses. ”:
