Chapter 1496 Pecking at the eye by the wild goose

Sima Lun's sudden counterattack made Zhuge Dan suddenly have a strong interest. If this was just a battle to chase and annihilate, the process would have been boring. Sima Lun killed a shot at this time, which inspired Zhuge Dan's fighting spirit.

Originally, Zhuge Dan planned to continue the pursuit war to the Ruhe area, which would span a distance of hundreds of miles, but now it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome. Sima Lun took the initiative to come to the door, and the battle could be solved in Yingshang area, saving him a lot of trouble.

The further away from Shouchun, the more uneasy Zhuge Dan felt. After all, it was more important to protect his lair than annihilation of Sima's army.

Guan Yu fought in Fancheng in full swing, flooding the seven armies, beheading Pang De and capturing Yu Jin, which was famous all over the world. Even Cao Cao was afraid of it and even had the idea of ​​moving the capital. However, he could not resist the Eastern Wu people stabbed the knife in the back, and Guan Yu lost Jingzhou and left Maicheng, and in the end he was even given his life in vain.

If the flooding of the Seven Army is the peak of Guan Yu's life, then it is only one step away from the peak to the abyss. Zhuge Dan does not want to be the second Guan Yu, so no matter how beautiful the battle in Huaibei is, no matter how vigorously the winning battle is, it is not as important as the old nest of Shouchun.

The Eastern Wu, where troops were stationed in Xincheng, was the important target of guarding against Zhuge Dan. With the sinister and dark-bellied nature of the Eastern Wu people, Zhuge Dan did not dare to place all his hopes on the Eastern Wu people.

Although Zhuge Dan now has an alliance with the Eastern Wu people, Zhuge Dan knows that the so-called alliance has no binding force for the ambitious Eastern Wu people. Zhuge Dan wants to use the power of the Eastern Wu people to fight against the Sima army, but if the operation is not good, it is likely to be a wolf entering the house.

Therefore, Zhuge Dan had to use it and prevent it from the Wu people. This time he went to Huaibei and deliberately left his son Zhuge Liang to Shouchun to prevent the Eastern Wu people from stabbing the knife in the back. If he was not careful, Zhuge Dan might be the second Guan Yu. He fought in Huaibei and won a great victory. However, he was ambushed by the Wu people and even lost his nest, which would be a complete tragedy.

Therefore, the further away from Shouchun, the more Zhuge Dan’s worries will be. If the battle can be solved in Yingshang area, it will naturally be the most beneficial to Zhuge Dan.

According to the original speed of Sima's escape, Zhuge Dan probably had to at least be in the Ruhe area to catch up. Unexpectedly, Sima Lun actually killed a retaliation at this moment. Obviously, Sima Lun was not willing to surrender just like that, and used the half-cross to attack, trying to fight to the death.

However, this was exactly what Zhuge Dan wanted. Zhuge Dan had already crossed Yingshui and ordered the Huainan army, which had been arranged on the west bank, to fight with all their might. At the same time, he ordered Jiang Ban and Jiao Yi to lead the subsequent troops to speed up the crossing of the river, complete the crossing of the river as quickly as possible, and join the battle.

The men and horses of both sides quickly fought one place, and started a large-scale melee, fighting with the death, and fighting fiercely.

The combat effectiveness of an army depends on the ability of the main general. With a playboy like Sima Lun, even if he handed over an iron army to his hands, he would not be able to exert his strong combat effectiveness. At least that's what Zhuge Dan thought.

When he was in Yinghedong, Sima Lun had defeated before the war, which probably had shaken the morale of the Sima army. Zhuge Dan naturally thought that such an army was almost vulnerable. However, after crossing the Yingshui River, the Sima army launched a counterattack. It was so fierce and its combat power was not inferior to those of Zhuge Dan's troops who had been guarding the frontier for many years. When the two sides fought, they were hard to solve. The Sima army still had a vague advantage in its military strength, which made Zhuge Dan frown secretly.

It seems that my previous estimate was wrong. Simalun was not a pamper. He deliberately showed weakness before, just for the current counterattack, which shows that Simalun still has a certain mind and wisdom. Such an opponent should not underestimate the enemy.

But even so, Zhuge Dan did not think that Sima Lun deserved to be his opponent. After all, no matter how outstanding Sima Lun is, he is just a teenage child. Even if he goes to study military books from his mother's womb, it is far from Zhuge Dan who has fought for decades. Zhuge Dan has eaten more salt than he has eaten, and Zhuge Dan has walked more bridges than he has walked. In terms of experience, Sima Lun cannot compare with him. Zhuge Dan has been pecked by geese all day long.

So even though the situation on the battlefield was at a disadvantage, Zhuge Dan was still calm and calm. He knew very well that he had only invested about half of his troops now, so he was at a disadvantage in the battle. But if all his army had crossed Yingshui, then the Huainan Army could easily reverse the situation on the battlefield and launch a comprehensive counterattack against the Sima Army.

So Zhuge Dan ordered Jiang Ban and Jiao Yi to do their best to transport troops to the west coast at all costs, and strive to cross the Yingshui River in the shortest time. Only in this way can the Huainan Army be guaranteed to have the dominant position on the battlefield.

But at this moment, suddenly, an army broke out in the northeast direction of the east bank of the Ying River, which was the rear wing of the Huainan Army. The generals were led by a general, not others, but General Fenwu, General Hu Lie, the younger brother of General Hu Fen of Zhennan. Most of the troops he led were cavalry, whistling from the northeast direction, and attacking the rear squad of the Huainan Army with a thunderous force.

The Huainan army was lined up in a long line, waiting to cross the river. At this time, Hu Lie suddenly led his army out and caught the Huainan army off guard. What's more, Hu Lie's army, which was dominated by cavalry, had extremely fierce attack power. In a flash, a big hole was torn into the Huainan army's formation. Tens of thousands of cavalry were as if they had entered an unmanned territory, cutting waves among the Huainan army, and attacking unscrupulously. They were invincible and unstoppable.

When Hu Lie led his army out, the Huainan army was really unprepared. All their attention was on the battlefield on the west bank of Yingshui. Jiang Banjiao Yi kept urging at the ferry, asking them to cross the river as soon as possible to join the battle. At this moment, the Huainan army was facing a surprise attack. It was too late to turn the gun to fight again.

Hu Lie's cavalry was like a whirlwind among the Huainan Army. Wherever he went, the Huainan Army could not resist it at all, with countless casualties and the formation was disrupted. Although Jiang Ban and Jiao Yi led their troops to fight, they were also a drop in the bucket and it was difficult to save the defeat of the Huainan Army.

When Zhuge Dan saw what happened on the east coast, he was shocked, his hands and feet were cold and panicked.
