Chapter 38(2/2)

The general Ma Di, who could only talk on paper, was guarding the street pavilion. He was defeated by Zhang Jaw in one fell swoop, ruining the good situation and had no choice but to retreat back!

This gave the monarchs and ministers of the Wei State an impression of Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu: He knows people poorly!

The second time he raised troops to invade the country was to attack Chencang City via Dashan Pass.

At that time, the Wei State had just experienced the Battle of Shiting and was severely damaged by Jiangdong. The temple had no choice but to dispatch many troops and horses to the eastern front of Huainan, taking advantage of the situation.

But what about the result?

Tens of thousands of troops besieged Chencang City for a month, but they were still unable to break through Hao Zhao, who was only guarded by more than a thousand soldiers. Moreover, before the emperor ordered Zhang Jaw to rush for reinforcements, they were stranded and had no food supplies, so they stopped and returned. Even after retreating On this occasion, they also set up an ambush and killed Wei general Wang Shuang, but the Wei monarchs and ministers still thought that the Shu generals were too weak to fight and were powerless to arrest him!

Without him, Wang Shuang would have been captured alive by the thief Wu in his early years!

If he violated the military taboo of not stopping after returning to the army, it would be no surprise if he was beheaded.

When the Shu Kingdom invaded the country for the third time, although Wudu and Yinping counties were captured, many Li Shu people in Wudu County and many Di tribes in Yinping County had been moved away as early as the period of Wei Wu and Cao Cao. !The Wei State regarded Wudu County as a buffer zone on the Wei-Shu border. They only set up some scouts and did not arrange an organized military garrison at all.

Otherwise, the first time Shu Kingdom left Qishan, it would not have been so smooth.

Moreover, in this war, the two kingdoms of Wei and Shu did not engage in close combat.

When Shu general Chen Shi seized the military capital and the two counties of Yinping, Guo Huai, the governor of Yongzhou, planned to supervise the troops of Longyou County to rescue him. However, Shu Prime Minister Zhuge Liang led his troops to Jianwei at the bottom of Qishan Mountain to garrison for reinforcements. Guo Huai, who had few troops, did not dare Go south.

Therefore, even if two counties were lost, the monarchs and ministers of the Wei state would not feel that Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu, had the ability to manage the army and that the Shu soldiers were inappropriately sharp.

After all, there is a record to follow~

As for Shu Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, he had the merit of quelling the rebellion in Nanzhong.

In the eyes of Wei's monarchs and ministers, it was nothing more than trying to quell the rebellion of ignorant barbarian tribes.

For example, the rebellions of the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qianghu tribes in the northwest of the Wei Kingdom were not suppressed as soon as troops were sent out!

There is nothing worthy of praise for your achievements in defeating the barbarians.

It’s not like Huo Qubing in the previous dynasty who sealed the wolf as a Xu and contributed to the expansion of the country’s territory by thousands of miles!

In other words, in the hearts of the emperors Cao Rui and Cao Zhen, as well as many officials who clamored to attack Shu, the Shu Kingdom, which had already lost tens of thousands of its elites in the Battle of Yiling, was not something to be afraid of! Although Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu, had a strategy for running the country, he had no plans to do so. Having the talent of a commander-in-chief is not worth mentioning!

Yes~

This is how it was in the original historical trajectory.

Before Cao Zhen failed in his attack on Shu, everyone in Wei thought that Bashu, with its dangerous mountains and rivers, could be conquered!

Before Sima Yi contributed "three thousand soldiers" in the Battle of Lucheng, the officers and soldiers of the Luoyang Central Army and Yongliang all believed that the soldiers of the Shu Kingdom could not match the elites of the Wei Kingdom!

Therefore, in the hearts of the emperors Cao Rui and Cao Zhen, it was inevitable to conquer Shu.

How can the vast Wei Kingdom, which already occupies seven percent of the world, tolerate the Shu Kingdom, which only has a land of Yizhou and was severely damaged by the bandit Wu in the Battle of Yiling, to repeatedly invade and provoke?

In particular, Shu State still regarded itself as the orthodox state of the previous dynasty and competed with Wei State for destiny.

If the Wei State does not raise troops to attack it, how can it enhance its prestige?

How to prove that Dai Han is the destiny of destiny!

How reassuring!

Xia Houhui, who had a clear understanding in his heart, remained silent for a long time.

After all, he can't say that the reason for his rebuttal is that he knows how the historical trajectory develops, right?
