The ambushing camp has been in Yelang Valley for two days. The ambush location chosen by Shizun is the only way from Nanzheng to Lecheng. The terrain here is dangerous and shaped like a pocket, and it is a most suitable ambush location.

Shi Zhuan ordered the soldiers of the trapped camp to hide to avoid alerting the snake. If the Shu army found an ambush here, they would definitely not step into the encirclement.

Therefore, Shizun asked the Wei soldiers to move their positions back when they ambushed, and they must not be exposed at all. Even if half of the figure is discovered by the Shu army, it is extremely dangerous and may lead to the ambush being wasted.

At the same time, Shizang asked the troops surrounding Lecheng to create more momentum and erect more flags, which would create the illusion of a large army to overthrow the city, and the Shu army in Nanzheng mistakenly thought that all the main forces of the Wei army were under Lecheng City, so that they would dare to send troops to rescue with confidence.

However, the encirclement was set up, but Shizan might not be sure whether the Shu army came or not. According to the information they received in advance, there was a serious problem of general disagreement between the Shu army in Hanzhong. The Hanzhong Governor Yan Yu was stationed in Nanzheng and the relationship between Jiang Bin and Lecheng in Lecheng was very staggered. Now that Lecheng is surrounded, it is indeed a mystery whether Yan Yu will take the initiative to send troops to rescue him.

But even if Yan Yu didn't come, Shi Zhuan had to prepare for an ambush. It would be just right for him to come. If he didn't come, he would just be a team to rest. After all, before the Wei army sieges, the hidden danger of the reinforcements in Nanzheng must be eliminated. Otherwise, the Wei army was concentrating its forces to attack the city on a large scale. The reinforcements of the Shu army suddenly came from behind, and the situation would be out of control.

So whether the Shu army comes or not, this ambush must be prepared. Surrounding and attacking aid is the traditional tactic of the Wei army, and there is basically no preparation. Anyway, the camp now does not have the ability to attack the city, and it is idle. Maybe Yan Yu has a trap, so Shizang will really make a big profit.

After two days of ambush, the Wei army saw a group of troops from the Shu army coming from west to east. The Wei army's observation post was discovered early in the morning and immediately reported to Yu Shizun.

Shi Zhuan climbed the top of the mountain and looked down. He saw that there were about a thousand people in the Shu army, and was marching quickly towards Lecheng. It was estimated that in about a moment, he would step into the Wild Wolf Valley.

Shizang ordered all ambushing troops to remain unmoved, no one should make noise, no one should be exposed, and no one should attack, and those who violate the order will be killed without mercy.

The generals under his command were stunned. They worked hard to ambush here for two days, sleeping in the open air, just waiting for the Shu army's troops to step into the encirclement and attack them, why did Shizan stop moving when the Shu army came?

Faced with the doubts of his subordinates, Shi Zhuan smiled and said, "The Shu army has only one thousand people. At most, it is a vanguard. It is specially for the way to explore the way. The mouse drags the gourd - the big head is still behind. If you attack this small group of troops first, you will startle the snake and let the Shu army escape."

The generals of the Wei army suddenly realized that this was the case. So they immediately passed the order, ordering the troops of each unit to continue ambushing, not to attack or expose them, and let the Shu army pass through Yelang Valley.

Yang Xin led his army to Yelang Valley at this moment. According to Yan Yu's latest order, Yang Xin had already increased the speed of the march, and the team significantly accelerated the journey.

When he arrived at the mouth of Yelang Valley, Yang Xin looked up at the mountains on both sides, and his heart couldn't help but feel chills rising, and his back was chilly. He thought secretly that if the Wei army was ambushing here, he would probably be in danger.

To be honest, Yang Xin was really a little timid in his heart at this moment, but he didn't dare to retreat easily, so he ordered the team to stop and wait a moment, and sent a few scouts to go to the high ground on both sides to see if there was an ambush.

The scouts were agile and quickly climbed up the ridge in front of them and looked around. There was no one left. So they went back to report to Yang Xin, saying that there was no ambush from the Wei army here and that they could pass with confidence.

This is also the reason why Shi Zhuan deliberately asked the Wei army to retreat in an ambush circle. If they were directly ambushed in the front, it would be easy to be exposed. After the ambush position retreated, the reconnaissance range of the Shu army's scouts was limited and there was no time to conduct a large-scale search, so they had no chance to discover the Wei army's ambush.

After hearing the scout's report, Yang Xin was a little skeptical. He stood at the entrance of the valley and looked around for a while. At this moment, the mountain was indeed empty and deserted. Not to mention humans, even a bird could not see.

Could it be that he was suspicious? Yang Xin subconsciously shook his head. Since he had not found the ambush of the Wei army, Yang Xin had no reason to retreat. He ordered all personnel to speed up through Yelang Valley without any stop.

The valley of Yelang Valley is not long, only three or four miles away. The Shu army's troops quickly passed through the valley. The whole process went very smoothly and there was no danger.

When Yang Xin left Yelang Valley, he finally breathed a long sigh. It seemed that he was too worried. There was no ambush from Wei Jun here.

Yang Xin left a small number of people here to support the subsequent large troops, while Yang Xin led his vanguard troops and continued to advance towards Lecheng with his head held high.

Looking at the figure of the Shu army leaving, the Wei army soldiers secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The scoundrels of the Shu army had actually reached their noses. If we crossed a mountain ridge further, the Wei army would really not be able to hide it.

There is no pressure to kill a few scouts, but as long as one of these scouts is killed, it will inevitably arouse the alertness of the Shu army. When they see that the situation is wrong, they will definitely turn around and run away. Not to mention a big fish, the Wei army may even escape such a small fish.

Therefore, the most important thing in the ambush battle is to hide it well. When Shi Zhuan arranged the ambush position, he carefully made a choice. He asked the Wei army to retreat to the second ridge. In this way, unless the Shu army conducts a large-scale and long-term search, the traces of the Wei army may be discovered. If you just simply search and reconnaissance, you will not be able to find the Wei army's ambush at all.

At this moment, the Shu army was marching and it was impossible to search carefully for all targets along the way. So even if they thought Yelang Valley was more dangerous, at most they would reconnaissance at the first ridge, and it would not be possible to go deep into the back mountain.

After letting go of this vanguard, Shizang immediately ordered the troops of various Wei troops to prepare for battle, because the big fish was about to take the bait.
