Chapter 364 Wei Yan's plan.
In the Shu camp, Guan Yu was sent to the camp for treatment as soon as possible. After some treatment, Guan Yu's life was finally saved.
"King of Shu, although the life of the second general was saved, this left arm was probably not guaranteed." The military doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in fear.
"nonsense!"
"If my second brother can't keep his left arm, I'll cut your left and right arms." Zhang Fei pulled the military doctor's neck and shouted angrily.
Zhang Fei's anger was because of his leopard head and eyes, and his hair and beard were standing, which was so scary that he looked so scary.
The military doctor was frightened by Zhang Fei and said with a sad face: "Third General, don't say you cut off my arms. Even if you cut off my head, the second general's arms will not be able to be saved!"
"Third brother, don't be rude." Liu Bei scolded Zhang Fei, and then asked the military doctor: "My second brother is a general in the army. If he loses his left arm, how can he fight on the battlefield? Is there any other way to protect my second brother's arm?"
The military doctor thought for a while and said to Liu Bei: "King of Shu, perhaps because he is not good at studying medicine, it is better to find some famous doctors elsewhere to try it. However, the King of Shu will be at most three days. If he cannot find a famous doctor in three days, the second general's arm will definitely not be able to protect it."
Liu Bei thought that three days were three days, and even if there was a glimmer of hope, he had to fight for it.
"Go and post the list quickly. Who can save your second brother's arm and reward tens of thousands of taels of gold?" Liu Bei ordered.
With Liu Bei's order, officers and soldiers immediately came to Zhuo County, including various counties and towns below Zhuo County, and some small towns. Anyway, the places where they could be posted were already covered with notices of seeking medical treatment.
Although Guan Yu fell into a coma, Xiao Pei still had to fight. Liu Bei summoned his civil servants and generals to discuss strategies against the enemy.
"If you want me, you can attack Xiaopei. After we attack Xiaopei, we must drive all the Qin generals of the Qin army and the Qin generals." Zhang Fei shouted.
"The King of Shu, Xiaopei's defender Zhang Wenyuan, has always been a strategy, and has Gao Shun and the camp. If he attacks for a strong force, even if he can defeat Xiaopei, he will probably suffer heavy casualties." Military advisor Xu Shu said.
At this time, Wei Yan stood up and bowed to Liu Bei and said, "King of Shu, since Xiaopei is not easy to take Xiaopei, it is better for us to take Fengxian, Xiangxian and Sishui County first. As long as we take these three counties, Xiaopei is just a turtle in the jar."
Xiaopei was called Sishui County in the Qin Dynasty. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the county was changed to a state and called Pei State. It was under the four counties of Fengxian, Xiangxian, Sishui County and Pei County. Over time, the county town of Pei County was simply called Xiaopei.
Although Wei Yan is not ranked one of the Five Tiger Generals of Shu Kingdom in history, this person is actually no less than the Five Tiger Generals. Perhaps in terms of martial arts, Wei Yan is slightly inferior to the Five Tiger Generals.
But if we talk about strategy, Wei Yan could even say that he was stronger than the Five Tiger Generals. Wei Yan had been in charge of Hanzhong for many years, and Hanzhong was always as solid as a god. Some people even said in the past life that if Zhuge Liang used Wei Yan's Ziwu Valley Strategy and gave Wei Yan five thousand soldiers, he might have really taken Chang'an directly and rewrite the history of the Three Kingdoms.
Today, Wei Yan made a plan to not take Xiaopei, and went to Fengxian, Xiangxian and Sishui first. In fact, this was also a strange plan. Because these three counties were behind Xiaopei, they could not pass the road of sending troops, so they could only pass by.
"We bypass Xiaopei to attack Fengxian, Xiangxian and Sishui counties. What should we do if we are surrounded by the Qin army in reverse?" Liu Bei pondered.
Guan Yu was seriously injured just now, and Liu Bei actually didn't want to use such a risky strategy.
However, at this time, Xu Shu said: "General Wei's plan is very good. Now the Qin army has accumulated all the troops in Xiaopei City. We are divided into three groups, including the three generals, the old general Huang and the general Wei, who lead 5,000 troops and horses to climb over Mangdang Mountain and attack the three counties at the same time. We will surely be able to capture all the three counties."
"I thought the three counties of the Qin army would definitely not have many soldiers and horses, and they could be taken in one battle. If Xiaopei and Zhang Liao divided the troops, that would be great. There were five thousand soldiers and horses in our county. If he wanted to take them back, he would send at least more than ten thousand people."
"If Zhang Liao divided his troops, it would be great. At that time, Xiaopei City was empty, and we could take Xiaopei down in one fell swoop."
After Xu Shu's analysis, Liu Bei suddenly felt that this was a good plan. He hurriedly dispatched troops and gave Zhang Fei, Wei Yan and Huang Zhong five thousand infantry each. He ordered them to climb over Mangdang Mountain in the night and then quickly capture the three county towns.
"After the three generals conquered the three counties, leave the deputy general to guard the army and hurry up and reply." Before the three of them sent troops, Xu Shu specifically reminded him.
To conquer these three counties, it would be a nail to the inside of the Qin army. These three counties were all around Xiaopei. If Zhang Liao wanted to retake it, he would have to divide his troops. With one point, Liu Bei would definitely attack Xiaopei.
But if you don't take it back, the Shu army from these three counties will be able to harass Xiaopei's food route from time to time.
In fact, Zhang Liao also thought that the Shu army might take the three counties first. However, even though he thought about it, Zhang Liao had no choice. The troops in his hands were seriously insufficient at this time, and once the troops were divided, Xiaopei would inevitably be in danger of losing.
At this time, Zhang Liao had to wait for Xiaopei first. As long as Xiaopei was not lost, Liu Bei's large army would not be able to pass.
At this time, there were no troops stationed in Fengxian, Xiangxian and Sishui counties, and the defenders of these three counties had been drawn back by Zhang Liao.
Although Wei Yan, Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei captured the three counties, they only obtained three empty cities. As soon as these three counties were lost, Zhang Liao had already received the news.
"Hmph, just three empty cities."
"My Xiaopei is now full of food, grass and weapons, and it is enough for three months. If the big ear thief wants these three counties, he will give it to him." Zhang Liao snorted coldly.
Zhang Liao expected that Liu Bei would attack these three counties and evacuate the people as soon as possible and withdrew the defenders. After the Shu army obtained these three counties, he had to worry about the food and grass needed by these in-depth soldiers.
A lot of food and grass have been stockpiled in Xiaopei City. Zhang Liao and the others don’t need a grain transport team to transport grain. Even if the Shu army wants to rob the food and grass, there is no place to rob it.
After conquering Xiang County, Zhang Fei was about to go back and report his life. At this time, the deputy general he left behind came and asked Zhang Fei: "Three Generals, there is no drop of food and grass in this city. I am stationed here. What are the five thousand people coming to eat and drink?"
"Do you still need to ask me about this?"
"The people in the city have fled. Are there villages far away in the city? There is no food or grass, so go and borrow it from them." Zhang Fei said a few words, took the reins under his crotch and led his troops back to Zhuo County to report his life.
"General, where can we borrow it? What should we get after borrowing it?" The soldiers around him scratched their heads and asked in confusion.
"When will we repay the things that we borrowed from? Go to the surrounding villages to borrow the food. If you don't borrow it, just borrow it." The deputy general said coldly.
