Chapter 985(1/2)
Pang Tong held the wine pot in one hand and clenched his toes with the other hand:
"Liu Bei has suffered losses in the past two days and cannot fight us. He will not give up when he retreats to Chang'an.
I guess he would retreat dozens of miles to get out of the camp, avoiding our army's edge, and finding an opportunity to defeat our army."
Zhuge Liang's drinking looks much more elegant than Pang Tong.
He held the wine bottle with one hand and covered it with his sleeve with his other hand, and his movements were very elegant.
Zhuge Liang put down the wine bottle and said to Yuan Shu and Pang Tong:
“What Shi Yuan said is right.
Since the Han army is looking for an opportunity, we will give him a chance.
If you can't let Liu Bei go back to Chang'an like this, at least you have to keep his 200,000 troops in Hanzhong."
Looking at Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong who were talking nonsense, Yuan Shu thought to himself that you two were very cruel to your old boss in your previous life.
This young master likes it!
Yuan Shu asked the two:
"If Liu Bei is determined to be a turtle with a head-rejected turtle, how should we lure him out?"
Zhuge Liang smiled with a fan:
"Just drop the bait, you won't have to worry about not taking the bait."
The next day, the Han army indeed retreated for more than fifty miles as Pang Tong expected, leaving only an empty village on the spot.
Yuan Shu sent general Ma Chao to lead the cavalry to fight in front of the Han military camp.
But no matter how Ma Chao scolded him, the Han army would not go to war.
Even Zhang Fei, who had been furious, could not help but fight Ma Chao.
For several days, the Chu and Han armies were stalemate.
In the Han military camp, Sima Yi was in the tent and was having a secret conversation with several sneaky figures.
These people were wearing white clothes, and even their faces were completely covered, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
Each of them had a sharp sword hanging around their waists, which was the Guigu Sword Service, who was specializing in killing and intelligence in Guigu.
Sima Yi asked several sword servants in a deep voice:
"Is there any news about the Chu army's food and supplies?"
A sword waiter in the lead said:
"Report to Sima's true teachings.
We lurked near the Chu camp for three days and did not find any place where the enemy troops were garrisoning grain.
There seemed to be food and grass in one camp. After we checked, we found that there was only some hay and no food and fodder.
This is obviously an empty village, which was used by the Chu army to confuse Sima's true teachings."
"You guys did a good job."
Although Sima Yi praised Jian Shi, he was so angry that he hated Yuan Shu and Zhuge Liang.
Even the camps that had garrisoned grain were fake, and the Chu army was too treacherous!
But the more Yuan Shu confused himself like this, it proved that food and grass were more important to the Chu army.
The Chu army had 300,000 people, and the daily military rations required was an astronomical figure.
If he could take down the grain of the Chu army and then send good generals to lead his troops to block the Chu army's retreat, wouldn't Yuan Shu have no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground?
At that time, not only will this battle be won, but even the master’s great revenge will be avenged!
Thinking of this, Sima Yi's desire to win was even more urgent.
He continued to order the sword attendants:
"It is not enough to just find out that the Chu army used fake villages to lure our army.
Within five days, I want to know the real place for the Chu army to store grain!
Can you do it?"
Several Guigu Swordsman looked at each other and responded to Sima Yi:
"We are obeying the true teachings of Sima!"
Guigu Sword Master's reconnaissance ability is still very strong.
Four days later, a few people replied to Sima Yi's Royal Love in the Royal Palace.
"The Chu army's grain and grass were stationed in a valley, which was called Shangfang Valley.
The Chu army transported grain from Shangfang Valley to the camp every day."
“Upgrade Valley…”
Sima Yi was delighted. If he was not in Chu Camp, the food destruction would be easier to do.
However, he was cautious by nature and repeatedly confirmed to the sword servant:
“Is the news reliable?”
The sword servant said confidently:
"We have been dormant near Shangfang Valley for two days, and we have seen the Chu army transporting grain every day.
The valley above must be where the Chu army stationed the grain!"
"good!"
Sima Yi said to the little leader of the sword servant:
"Take more sword servants to observe the movements of the Chu army carefully.
If you can win this battle, I guarantee you to become an inner disciple of Guigu!”
The leader of the sword servant was overjoyed when he heard this, and his voice trembled:
"Thank you for Sima Zhenzhi cultivation!"
Although the Three Thousand Swordsman in Guigu is strong, he is just a tool used by Guigu disciples.
Their lives are completely insignificant compared to those of the inner disciples of Guigu, and they can be sacrificed and abandoned at any time.
Being able to transform from a sword servant to a disciple of Guigu is tantamount to turning from a tool to a human being, which is a great fortune for them.
Watching the sword servant leave, Sima Yi shook his head gently and said:
"I'm still not relieved, I always feel that there is a fraud.
This battle is related to the success or failure of our army. How should we confirm it?"
At this time, he suddenly saw Li Jue and Guo Sierra chatting in front of him.
Guo Si complained:
"I lived a very upset life. I couldn't win the war. I could only supervise the soldiers guarding the village in the camp every day.
I remember when we were on the Green Forest Road in Liangzhou, we could robbery at any time.
Think about it now, that is the day of a god!”
Li Jue comforted Guo Si:
"This kind of life will last for a few days, and I don't think the king has the intention to attack the Chu army.
Just as Mr. Yang said, the place of Yongliang is now, it’s nothing!
There is no meat, giving up is a matter of time.
After returning to Chang'an, I will invite you to have some good drinks and find two girls to relax your muscles."
"Okay, you are so fucking loyal!"
Guo Si smiled and walked away with Li Jue in a siding arms.
I have to say that the relationship between people is really too easy to change.
Li Jue and Guo Si are both generals under Liu Bei's command, and the two are life and death brothers who can entrust their lives to each other.
However, in Yuan Shu's previous life, Li Jue and Guo Si held great power, but turned against each other and fought to the death.
“Robbery…”
Sima Yi said to himself:
"Yes, you can try to rob the Chu army's food and grass.
Whether it succeeds or not, you can finally determine whether the food and grass in the valley above is true or false."
Sima Yi came up with a plan and hurriedly went to give advice to Liu Bei.
The task of plundering the Chu army's food and grass also fell on the heads of Li Jue and Guo Si.
