Liu Yishen thought so, and he analyzed for himself: "Liu Bei's reinforcements came from the Jingzhou waterway, and subsequent supplies should also come from the waterway, which is the route Liu Bei took to enter Sichuan last year, so the end of the waterway should be in Fucheng, but Fucheng and There is a long mountain road between Luocheng, can we do something?"
Although defending the city is hard work, going out to conduct a sneak attack is undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
Liu Quan quickly agreed: "General Zhang, why don't you go out from the south gate at night, and then go around the rear of Liu Bei's army to cut off its food route?"
Before Zhang Ren spoke, Liu Gao quickly waved his hand: "The situation outside is unclear now. Even if Liu Bei's food route can be cut off, Luocheng may not be able to hold on for that long. The only way is to pretend to attack the food route and actually attack Liu Bei's camp, and directly imitate Cao Cao's burning of Wuchao. That way.
It's just that this strategy is risky. We can't send too many troops out of the city. If it's discovered, we might not be able to return it..."
"But time waits for us not. We must take measures. It is better for General Zhang to defend the city and I will lead the troops to burn food." Liu Quan said excitedly.
Zhang Ren shook his head quickly, his eyes gradually becoming determined, "If General Liu hadn't been supervising Luocheng, how could we have been able to hold on for such a long time? Or if my troops had gone out of the city to fight, I wonder how many soldiers and horses you can mobilize?"
"How about seven...eight...ten thousand?" Liu Wei asked tentatively.
"Ten thousand?" Liu Quan looked at Liu Yi in surprise, as if asking, is this too much? After all, there are less than 30,000 people in Luocheng.
Liu Wei nodded and said: "Liu Bei now has fifty or sixty thousand troops. If he sends too few troops, he may harm Zhang Zhi..."
Zhang Ren was a little moved, and then waved his hand and said: "It is not suitable to send out surprise troops in large numbers. Ten thousand troops are too powerful and will be easily detected by Liu Bei's scouts. I will just lead five thousand troops out of the city."
"Is it too little?" Liu Wei was very hesitant.
Zhang Ren said categorically: "Liu Bei's attack on the city is very fierce. It is better to leave more troops and horses in the city. I will prepare now."
Liu Wei nodded and said nothing, looking a little lonely. Liu Quan looked at Zhang Ren's back and comforted him: "Young master, there is no need to be sad. General Zhang may not be in trouble. If he can successfully attack the grain and grass, we can turn from defense to offense." ."
Liu Wei sighed: "Liu Xuande is not Yuan Benchu, and I think he is not as good as Cao Mengde..."
"Who knows until the battle is over? The key is if we don't take a gamble, we won't have a chance."
"well..."
Around the time of Xu, Zhang Ren's five thousand soldiers had a good meal and were waiting to leave the city. Liu Wei and Liu Quan came to the south gate to say goodbye.
"Zhang will go back as soon as he leaves. Sir, General Zhang, please guard the city carefully. If our troops return to the city, they will be led by a yellow tooth flag. Liu Bei must not take advantage of it." Zhang Ren got on his horse and said goodbye.
Liu Suan patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I, Old Liu, have a good eye."
"General Zhang, take this seriously." Liu Yi nodded.
Zhang Ren just urged his horse to take two steps. Suddenly he remembered something and reined in the reins and turned back: "On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes. If Zhang comes back alive, my wife and children in Chengdu..."
At this time keNshuF ANg .com Zhang Si. Seeing that Zhang Ren was so heroic, Liu Yi quickly comforted him and said: "If this is really the case, I will take care of your wife, so don't worry about it..."
After hearing this, Zhang Ren turned around and rushed out of the door. It was clearly still midsummer in August, but Liu Wei thought of the cold wind in Yishui.
Liu Huang also said boldly: "Loyal ministers should keep their integrity. Don't worry, eldest son. Just like Zhang Zheng, I will fight to the death to protect your safety. I will never imitate cowards like Wu Yi and Li Yan."
Liu Wei lamented that an old dog still has a few teeth, and there were many loyal ministers and good generals in Yizhou. How could the situation be like this?
Zhang Ren led his army secretly out of the city, away from Liu Bei's camp, and took a detour from the northwest.
Early the next morning, Liu Bei's army continued to attack the city in three directions.
Liu Huang keenly discovered that the two offensives in the northwest had weakened, and only the east gate continued to maintain the siege status of yesterday. He had to shift his attention to the east.
During the noon break, Liu Wei came to the East Gate for inspection and asked the burly Liu Quan, "How is the East Gate here?"
"The offensive is still fierce. If it hadn't been for the scorching sun, we probably wouldn't have stopped attacking now. Our soldiers are very tired. They were replaced four times in the morning." Liu Quan wiped the sweat with the back of his hand.
Liu Wei sighed and said, "I didn't expect that we would be suppressed by Liu Bei in terms of strength due to our superior terrain. Fortunately, the offensive of the two northwest gates is weaker today. Do you want to transfer some defenders to the east?"
Liu Huang quickly waved his hand: "It is a taboo for military officers to switch defenses rashly. Let's wait until tomorrow. Maybe they will resume their offensive in the afternoon."
Liu Wei shook his head and said: "I don't think so. The generals of the two groups have changed today. Is the fighting style related to the general?"
"I didn't stay at the northwest gate for long in the morning, and I really didn't notice that the commander of the siege had changed. Liu Bei wouldn't be up to something, right? Zhang Zhiwen just left the city last night, and I don't know if it has anything to do with him... "Liu Huang frowned.
"General Zhang is secretive. It is impossible to discover it so quickly. It should be a normal transfer. Zhuo Ying and Liu Feng have also been generals. General Liu, you will supervise the battle at the east gate first. If there is any urgent military information, I will send someone to report it." ."
After Liu Wei finished speaking, he turned around and left, but Liu Guangxin felt bad.
Liu Bei replaced Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei in the formation, leaving only Wei Yan at the east gate to continue to suppress, with the purpose of defeating Zhang Ren's five thousand soldiers.
After besieging Luocheng for three months, Liu Bei followed Zhuge Liang's plan and ordered people to occupy all the villages and villages in the surrounding counties and villages, and set up sentries around Luocheng.
Although Zhang Ren was discovered when he went out of the city at night, he was no ordinary person and quickly used the power of the night to hide himself.
The news was sent back to Liu Bei's camp, and Zhuge Liang quickly made arrangements after discussing with Pang Tong and Fazheng.
Zhang Ren's thousands of people can neither affect the normal siege of the city nor take it lightly.
No matter where Zhang Ren's troops went, their purpose was nothing more than to cut off food routes, rob camps to burn food, harass and contain them, etc.
The three military advisors accompanying Liu Bei are all masters of strategy, and it is impossible for them to be led by Zhang Ren.
In the case of tight military strength, he chose to wait and see, and transferred back two generals, Zhang Fei and Huang Zhong.
At dusk, the sun sinks into the western mountains.
There was no scorching sun in the morning and evening, which was suitable for fighting. Luocheng ushered in the second attack on Gaochao in the evening.
Control the big one and control the owl. The front line was cooking at the rear of the battle. At this time, Liu Bei's camp was quiet, with only a few wisps of smoke rising into the sky.
Zhang Ren took advantage of the darkening sky and led his army to tiptoe over. Looking at the smoke, he couldn't help but smile. The place where the pots were buried must be not far from where the grain was stored. The battle in Luocheng was in full swing now. Who could pay attention? To yourself?
If the food is burned at a lightning speed, Liu Bei's army may collapse due to lack of food, and the crisis in Yizhou may be relieved. As long as the food is burned successfully, it will be worth dying in battle.
Approaching Liu Bei's military camp, Zhang Ren drew his sword and shouted: "Destroy Liu Bei today."
