"General, Zhuge Liang has been in Chencang for more than a month. It is logical that the Shu army's food and supplies are no longer sustainable. Why are there no signs of Shu army withdrawing?" Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Yan Fei asked his doubts for many days...

Cao Zhen shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know Zhuge Liang's real purpose. I think he is unwilling to be futile to send troops this time, so he just hold on. I want to wait and see if there will be any turning point."

"It's just that?" Yan Fei said worriedly: "Then Zhuge Liang has always been full of wisdom. Is there any major conspiracy that he has been leading troops under Chencang City? If this is true, we must be wary of it early."

Cao Zhen smiled and said, "I thought about this, but Zhuge Liang only brought 30,000 troops this time, and our army deployed nearly 20,000 troops in Chencang, Meicheng and the martial arts line, which was more than enough to resist the 30,000 Shu troops.

In addition, the three cities are not far apart, and can respond to each other from the east and the east and support each other. In addition, we are in charge of Chang'an as support. The defense on the southern line is so perfect that even if Zhuge Liang has any tricks, we can deal with them calmly."

"The general's words are reasonable, but it seems that the subordinates are overly worried." Yan Fei smiled relaxedly.

Cao Zhen nodded, but suddenly frowned again and said, "Unless..."

"General, unless what?" Seeing his serious expression, Yan Fei's heart, which had finally let go, raised again.

Cao Zhen said slowly: "Unless Zhuge Liang increases his troops, the defense on the southern front will inevitably be in a difficult situation, and we may also be obsessed with Zhuge Liang's words."

Yan Fei became nervous again after hearing this, but before he could speak, Cao Zhen relaxed again and chuckled: "But this is impossible. Not to mention how much pressure the increase in the Shu army will put on the transfer of food and grass, we can't hide it from the mobilization of troops alone, so Yan Fujun does not need to worry about this."

Yan Fei thought that this is the same. If Zhuge Liang wanted to increase his troops, he could only mobilize his troops from Hanzhong. However, since the war started, he had already scattered a large number of spies to Hanzhong and Baoxiedao and other roads north. A large number of Shu troops going north would definitely not be able to hide the eyes of his own spies.

After understanding this section, Yan Fei finally felt relieved and bowed and smiled: "The General is worthy of being a famous general of the Wei Dynasty. He has a clear understanding of Zhuge Liang's thoughts and situation. This time the Shu army invaded this time, he will definitely return without success."

"Yan Fujun praised it, and our army was naturally much easier to deal with it by taking the defensive posture."

Cao Zhen waved his hand modestly and sighed: "Oh, I think my King of Wei is an elite leader in the country, but was forced to shrink and defend by the small country of Western Shu. I am so ashamed to be the ones who fight in battle!"

"General, don't blame yourself. This year's decline is just caused by the two thieves of Shu and Wu. The king's army has to endure it for a while. After repelling the attack of the Shu army, we will wait for our Great Wei to recuperate for a while and let the two thieves of Shu and Wu know what the thieves of Shu and Wu are."

Cao Zhen slapped the table and shouted, "Well said, Yan Fujun's words are just a matter of heart. When the country gets breathing, he will report to the emperor to send a large army to the south and defeat the Sichuan thieves in one fell swoop. This year, let Zhuge Liang, Sun Quan and the others be proud for the time being."

"It is really a blessing for the general to have such patience and ambition." Yan Fei raised his thumb and praised.

"Haha, Yan Fujun is too good." Cao Zhen said modestly, touching the beard on his lips.

But before Cao Zhen, Yan Fei and the other two had peace of mind for two days. A sudden news seemed like a bolt from the blue, which shocked them. Mu stayed in his seat blankly and didn't say a word for a long time.

After a while, Cao Zhen came to his senses first, stared at the sergeant kneeling in the hall and asked, "What's the situation? Why did tens of thousands of Shu troops appear in Anling?"

"If you go back to the general, you don't know if there are many situations. As soon as the Shu army arrived at the hem of Anling City, the magistrate of Zhang County of my family immediately sent a few small people to Chang'an to report the message. The villain only saw a large area of ​​Shu army outside the city, and there were thousands of cavalrymen alone." The sergeant replied hurriedly.

When Cao Zhen heard this answer, he was angry and cursed loudly: "Baozi, they are all waste. Where did the bandits come from? Who is the leader? How many troops are there? I don't know all of these situations, so Zhang Pei dares to send people to report them. He is really incompetent!"

The soldier saw that Cao Zhen, the general, was furious and cursed. He was so scared that he sweated coldly and shivered all over, and he wished he could bury his originally lowered head into his neck.

"Please rest the wrath of Thunder temporarily. Although Zhang Pei was unable to find out the enemy's situation, he still asked the general to remember his sincere heart that was eager to inform him, so he should bypass him this time." After Cao Zhen's attack, Yan Fei bowed and persuaded.

As the prefect of Jingzhao, Zhang Pei was his direct subordinate, and his political achievements in the past three years were quite good, so he had to speak out to protect him.

Cao Zhen sighed and said, "Forget it, just because of Yan Fujun, I won't bother with him this time." He asked the soldier again, "Do your county magistrate ask you to bring anything?"

"If you go back to the general, my family... my county magistrate asked the general to send troops to rescue him quickly. He also said... He also asked the general and Yan Fujun to rest assured. He had already claimed the idea of ​​dying for his country and would definitely stick to the last soldier."

Hearing that Zhang Pei had such ambition to die, Cao Zhen's slightly ferocious expression finally became much softer, and he waved his hand: "I know, I'll go back and tell Zhang Pei to tell him to keep the city, and reinforcements will be able to pass soon."

"promise."

After the soldier left, Yan Fei said to Cao Zhen: "General, whether to beat the drums and gather the generals, please call everyone to discuss who will lead the troops to rescue Anling."

"Rescue Anling? No, Anling doesn't have to go and save him."

Yan Fei said in surprise: "Why is this?"

"Although the Shu army's troops have not yet been explored, there are at least a few thousand people. The number of major generals of Anling is too small, so it is too late to rescue them at this time.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Besides, this Shu army came very strangely. Although it was unknown where it came from, the Shu army so hard and alone must have come to us, Chang'an, so it is better to be quiet at this time. Keep Chang'an first and then make a decision after discovering the enemy's situation." Cao Zhen explained.

Yan Fei nodded: "General, the senior official understands." He paused and sighed: "It's just that, Anling..."

"There is only the only way to let fate in Zhang Pei." Cao Zhen also sighed: "In fact, it's not just Anling. Judging from the current situation, Maoling, Pingling, and Changling may not be able to protect the tombs around Chang'an."

"Oh, where did this Shu army come from? Why didn't you hear any movement? Zhuge Liang's scout was staring at it tightly. There were so many troops deployed on the Wei River line. How could the Shu army suddenly appear around Chang'an?"

Yan Fei secretly said to Zhang Pei in his heart that he saved himself, and then focused his thoughts on the origin of the Han army.

Cao Zhen did not reply. At this moment, he was constantly checking the entire Guanzhong defense in his mind, trying to find out which direction there was a loophole, so that the Han army could quietly touch the vicinity of Chang'an.

However, no matter how he checked all the defense deployments in the southeast, southwest and northwest directions, he did not find out where the loophole was.

"Have the generals arrived yet? Send someone to urge them to tell them that if there is any delay, military law will be carried out."

Cao Zhen racked his brains and did not come up with a reasonable explanation. He decided to wait until the generals arrived before thinking about this matter together. Seeing that no one had come, he immediately shouted to the officer who was responsible for notifying the generals.

The middleman quickly got up and said, walked out of the hall and arranged staff.

After a while, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded outside. Everyone thought it was a general who arrived, but they didn't expect it was a scout who ran in.

"Report to the general, the Shu army has been investigated clearly. The chief general of this Shu army is Yang Qing, the pseudo-Shu Yongzhou Governor."
