Really blocked?

Li Yan waited with Wei Yan outside the stone formation for a day and a night, and was shocked to see that the Wei army was actually blocked by the stone formation left by Liu Yi and was unable to make progress.

This somewhat subverted Li Yan's perception. It was clearly a stone formation arranged based on the Bagua. He stood on the tower and saw clearly, but the Wei general seemed to be confused in the formation and had made mistakes several times. In the end, he trapped himself in the formation, and the Wei army in the formation was inexplicably left behind, which made Li Yan a little incredible.

Sima Yi would definitely recognize this formation. It was impossible for him to send someone who did not understand the formation to break the formation, but he was trapped in the formation and could not get out for a day. In the end, he still climbed out by climbing the wall.

Is the Wei army too incompetent or is there another mystery in Liu Yi's stone formation?

But after looking at it for a while, Li Yan did not see any mystery in the stone formation. If General Wei followed the path he saw, he could go out. Moreover, Li Yan silently calculated that even if he was not condescending, as long as he knew the layout of the stone formation, it would not be difficult to go out.

Where exactly is the problem? Li Yan couldn't figure it out.

"Where is General Wei and General Deng?" Li Yan came down from the watchtower and returned to the camp, but there was no sign of Wei Yan and Deng Ai, and he couldn't help but say strangely.

"Go back to the general, the two generals will go to mobilize their troops and will not come back for a while!" The personal guard bowed and said.

Li Yan nodded silently. Liu Yi gave him only a part of the troops. Liu Yi obviously had other things to do, so he gave him the command. But it seemed that Liu Yi did not take all the troops away. What strategy did he have?

Li Yan was a little puzzled, thought for a while, a ruthless light flashed in his eyes, he looked around and said to his guard: "Come with me!"

Now he brought his personal guards back to the camp and spread out a blank bamboo slip. After thinking about it, Li Yan began to write quickly. This time he was defeated, but after all, Liu Yi was the head of the house here. Liu Yi had to bear at least half of the responsibility for this defeat. If Liu Yi came back, the matter would probably not be so easy to solve. He had to take action first!

A quarter of an hour later, Li Yan looked at the bamboo slips he wrote, carefully checked them, and confirmed that there were no mistakes, and then he recruited his confidant guard and handed the dried bamboo slips to his guards and said, "You quickly bring this bamboo slip back to the court, and handed the bamboo slips to the servant Huang Hao. In addition, if you give this jade pendant to your wife, he will give you a sum of money and gifts to Huang Hao at the same time."

Based on Li Yan's understanding of Liu Chan, he went directly to Liu Chan to say that Liu Yi was not. Liu Chan would probably not listen, but Huang Hao might have a solution. As Liu Chan's close servant, Huang Hao is undoubtedly the person who knows Liu Chan the best in the world. Sometimes such a person said something more useful than saying it for a long time. Even if he can't punish Liu Yi in the opposite direction, he can at least help him to clear up some of the relationship.

"Here!" The guard took the bamboo slips and jade pendants, bowed and turned around and left quickly.

The personal guard was Li Yan's family general and was quite loyal to Li Yan. Li Yan was not relieved if he handed over this matter to others.

Watching the figure of the guard disappear into the night, Li Yan took a deep breath. He now had some hope that Liu Yi would fail. In this way, the court could not punish Liu Yi for only punishing him, but... what did Liu Yi do?

...

Under the same night, Yecheng.

The news that Sima Yi, who was in the inner world, defeated the Han army and recaptured Li Yang had been returned. In Yecheng, the Wei Dynasty was cheering and cheered up. As long as this battle was won, at least the court could rest assured. Sima Yi could even lead the army to march south to work with Cao Shuang to defeat Pang Tong, and even to persuade Jiangdong to fight with them.

Cao Fang didn't understand so much. The only feeling of a nine-year-old child was that the court was no longer so depressed. Everyone was happy, and Cao Fang himself was happy.

In this jubilant atmosphere, outside Yecheng, a fleet quietly descended along the Zhang River and arrived five miles outside Yecheng.

On the early winter night, it was already a little cold and a little scary. Liu Yi got off the boat, stretched his muscles and bones, looked at the city in the distance, compared the map and said, "This place is Yecheng!"

"Governor, do you want to do it?" Ma Qiu came over and bowed to Liu Yi.

Liu Yi took off the mask on his face, and the glass eye mask was covered with mist.

Looking at the lights on the city wall in the distance, Liu Yi sighed. This was the first time he was attacking this completely unfamiliar terrain. Before siege, Liu Yi would have a comprehensive understanding of the other party's city terrain, the pattern and the surrounding roads.

But Yecheng is in the hinterland of Cao Wei, and only the map can be seen, but fighting is bound to be fought. This battle is of great significance. I don’t know how far Li Yan fought with Sima Yi? I hope you won’t lose too quickly!

After looking at the sky, Liu Yi shook his head and said, "Let the soldiers move around and eat something. When the sky is about to be clear, then take action. At that time, it is the most likely time for people to get sleepy. We should also prepare well, don't fire, be careful of being discovered by the Wei army!"

In this era, the city will be subject to curfews at night. It is so far away that as long as the city does not fire, it will be dark when looking here.

Soon, Pang Hui also gathered all his troops and found Liu Yi nearby. He looked at Liu Yi and said curiously: "Governor, what should I prepare?"

"Torch." Liu Yi asked someone to take out the torch prepared in advance.

"Governor, can't you attack openly, right?" Pang Hui was startled.

"Who said that we should make an attack? This is used to make a move!" Liu Yi shook his head and said, "At dawn, Ma Qiu will lead the three thousand vine armored troops to the city first. For the remaining five thousand people, I will make a fire cradle. At that time, each person will carry one, and all five torches will be lit, and then cooperate to enter the city to create the illusion of a large army attacking."

"Governor, if you can break the city, you can capture it directly. Why do you have to do this?" Ma Qiu said with a smile.

Rubbing his hands and shouting, Liu Yi looked at the direction of Yecheng and said, "This is the Wei Dynasty country. Think about how many permanent troops there are in Chang'an? If it is really occupied, I'm afraid we can't get out. If we can scare the thief army away, it's best. As for the little emperor of the Wei Dynasty, it's best to be captured, but if it can't be captured, as long as we can force them to move the capital!"

As time passed by bit by bit, Liu Yi was instructing people to make fire frames while discussing some details with Pang Hui and Ma Qiu. In this battle, they were the main force, and Liu Yi would finally enter the city.

"Send someone to notify Li Yan. If he is not defeated, let him hold Sima Yi, I will attack Sima Yi with him after I occupy Yecheng!" Seeing that the appointment was approaching, Liu Yi asked Ma Qiu to take the Tengjia Army to steal the city, turned his head and smiled at Pang Hui.

Although I think Li Yan will be defeated by Sima Yi, it should not be enough for such a short time. If this battle can destroy the Cao Wei court, Sima Yi will be over. If the attack on both sides, no matter how powerful the Sima thief is, he will not be able to hold on.

"Here!" Pang Hui agreed and immediately ordered someone to send an order.
