Chapter 649 Truce
"Governor, you..." Jiang Wei looked at Liu Yi who had returned, a little confused, and did not see any signal to answer him. Why did he come back like this? He asked subconsciously: "Can't break the city?"
"It's broken, the Emperor of Wei runs away, and our army occupy Yecheng for one day should be considered broken." Liu Yi sighed, and asked Ma Qiu and Pang Hui to continue leading the army to withdraw to Huguan, and said, "This place will be noticed soon, you can retreat too. I will set up a checkpoint on Huguan to prevent the Wei army from counterattacking Bingzhou in the future."
"Here!" Jiang Wei nodded and looked at Liu Yi with some confusion.
"Li Yan was defeated, but he was a little completely. The army retreated to Hanoi." Liu Yi glanced at Jiang Wei and said with a wry smile.
This is the closest Liu Yi has to defeat Sima Yi. After this time, he will be against Sima Yi again, and Liu Yi is not sure whether he has this luck.
Use Qi Mo once is called Qi Mo, and use it twice is mentally retarded.
Jiang Wei understood and nodded and comforted: "But it was not a defeat. Emperor Wei was forced to escape from Yecheng. This point alone would be enough to make the people of the Wei Dynasty lose their hearts. Our army would have an advantage in the next war. The governor could take this opportunity to send troops and horses to cut off the food route of Caoshuang. If the war in the Central Plains wins, there would be only two states of Youji in Cao Wei, which would be no trouble!"
"I have ordered someone to notify Wei Yan to do it." Liu Yi smiled and patted Jiang Wei on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, withdraw back to Huguan. Although Jizhou cannot be taken, Bingzhou is ours. This time I will gain something from breaking Yecheng. Boyue only needs to practice troops here. When the next year comes, I will let Pang De's troops come to help you capture Yanmen."
"Here!" Jiang Wei agreed and began to organize the retreat.
Seeing the ships being pushed down the river and the army began to withdraw, Liu Yi sighed. This battle had indeed had a huge impact on Cao Wei, but Li Yan's defeat gave Cao Wei, who could have slapped him to death. Next, this battle had to be fought. Sima Yi, who had only changed his weapons, was not so easy to deal with, and he still had to defend. As long as Sima Yi was dragged here, the war in the Central Plains should end soon with Wei Yan joining the battlefield. I just hope that there will be no chaos in the Eastern Wu.
What Liu Yi is most afraid of now is accidents. If the Eastern Wu also participated in the war, the Central Plains would be completely in war and the navy in Jingzhou would also have to move.
Under the continuous war, the lives of life were devastated. This was the result that Liu Yi least wanted to see. He could have not experienced these things, but now, Li Yan's defeat... It was really not the time to lose. Even if the fertile land was too late, Sima Yi could not implement any more strategies after receiving the news.
Li Yan... When he went back this time, the new and old accounts were time to go!
...
Just as Liu Yi retreated to Shuyao City, Sima Yi was worried about the stone formation at this moment.
Early in the morning, Sima Yi ordered people to demolish the stone formation. There were not many soldiers inside anyway. If they demolished it, it would happen if the Han army stopped it. He also wanted to see how much difference there was between the Wei army equipped with the Han army and the Han army.
Unfortunately, the stone formation was unexpectedly strong. Guo Huai and his men worked hard all day and tried their best to break a wall. It was not completely destroyed, but it could only allow the army to pass.
Liu Yi’s ability in this area is really a headache!
"Father!" Just as Sima Yi was frowning, he saw Sima Zheng galloping towards him.
"Ziyuan?" Sima Yi frowned and looked at Sima Shi: "Didn't you ask you to escort the baggage and guard those Han troops? What are you doing here?"
"Father, something happened in Yecheng!" Sima Shi turned over and dismounted, took a few breaths of energy, and looked at Sima Yi and said.
"Oh?" Sima Yi frowned and said, "What can happen to Yecheng?"
"Your Majesty sent a messenger. Liu Yi suddenly broke out from the Zhang River yesterday and attacked the city overnight. Yecheng was broken!" Sima Shi said with a gloomy expression: "Your Majesty fled to Zhongshan under the escort of all officials!"
"With 20,000 defenders in Yecheng, how can they be easily captured??" Sima Yi's expression changed drastically and he said sternly.
"According to the messenger, the Han army was quite powerful, invulnerable, and could climb the city. The court defeated the Han army because of his father. That night, all the civil and military officials in the court were celebrating. Unexpectedly, Liu Yi suddenly came from the Zhang River and had no time to react, so the city was broken!" Sima Shi said with a wry smile.
"Liu Yi!" A trace of sinister flashed in Sima Yi's eyes, and he looked at the stone formation in front of him and said, "I underestimated him. If we hadn't defeated Li Yan first, our army would be in danger at this moment!"
Sima Shi nodded. If Li Yan had not been defeated first, Liu Yi would come forward and the army would be in a state of turmoil. If Liu Yi led his army to attack Li Yan again and cut off the food and supplies of the army, Sima Yi would have to kneel even if he had the ability to be in heaven.
"I heard that Liu Yi immediately abandoned the city and retreated after learning that Li Yan's army was defeated." Sima Shi looked at the stone formation in front of him, frowned and looked at Sima Yi and said, "Father, do you still want to attack Hanoi?"
"Retreat the troops!" Sima Yi looked at the stone formation in front of him and felt depressed. Unexpectedly, he planned to plot against Liu Yi, but was used by Liu Yi. If it weren't for Li Yan's eagerness for quick success and instant benefits, he would have found an opportunity to defeat him, the whole of Jizhou would be in chaos at this time. Shaking his head, Sima Yi turned around and said, "The morale of the army has moved, and Liu Yi's plan cannot be achieved, so he will definitely come back quickly. It will be difficult for us to invade Hanoi."
Even if Li Yan is better than Liu Yi, Sima Yi is not afraid, but if Liu Yi comes back, Sima Yi really doesn't have much confidence to resolve the battle in a short time.
Li Yan is a smart person. If you use a trick, he will crack it. I'm not afraid of this, but Liu Yi is different. No matter what trick you use, his response method is only one word!
However, such a person suddenly acted the opposite way and made a surprise attack. Sima Yi was a little unbearable. You definitely didn't know when he would give you another move. Fighting with someone like Li Yan would not take too much time regardless of victory or defeat. But if you fight with Liu Yi, even if you can win, it would definitely not be possible to complete it in a short time. The most uncomfortable thing is that even if you win, you will not be able to win!
At present, after this incident, the Wei Dynasty would inevitably be in turmoil. Sima Yi had to try to persuade Cao Fang to return to Yecheng. Where is the capital of Wei, it must not be changed easily.
He fled before, but it was impossible to move to another place. Sima Yi would never agree. The matter of moving the capital was of great importance, and the Wei Dynasty could not withstand such trouble at present.
"Ziyuan, you bring a group of troops to the Central Plains to support Cao Shuang. The court is powerless for the time being, but the battle in the Central Plains cannot be defeated!" Sima Yi looked at Sima Shi and said, "Take a group of newly obtained soldiers and armor, and be well equipped. If you have the chance, seize more."
"Here!" Sima Shi nodded and agreed, bowed to Sima Yi, and said goodbye and left.
Sima Yi ordered Guo Huai to withdraw his troops.
"Taiwei, with the catapult cart seized from the Han army, it will definitely be able to smash the stone formation. Why should we withdraw our troops at this time?" Guo Huai said unwillingly.
"Just just now, Ziyuan brought news, Liu Yi led his troops into Yecheng. Your Majesty fled to Zhongshan. I must rush back as soon as possible to stabilize the court. You are stationed in Yanjin. Remember not to move lightly. Let me make a decision after I come back!" Sima Yi looked at Guo Huai and said in a deep voice.
Liu Yi’s military strategy is not good, so it depends on who he compares with. At least in Sima Yi’s opinion, Guo Huai may not be able to defeat Liu Yi. At this time, the situation in the Great Wei Dynasty is unstable. At this time, it is best not to start a war with Liu Yi easily, focus on defending, and make decisions for the rest after you come back.
Guo Huai was a little stunned when he heard this. What happened? Why did Liu Yi appear in Yecheng?
It was not until Sima Yi pushed him that Guo Huai woke up as if he was in a dream. He quickly bowed to Sima Yi and said, "Don't worry, the general will definitely swear to defend Yanjin to the death, and not let the Han army step through Yanjin!"
Sima Yi wanted to comfort him a few words, not so serious, but in the end he didn't say that if Yanjin had any mistakes, Liu Yi could lead his army to attack Chaoge directly and threaten Yecheng!
At present, the Great Wei Dynasty needs stability, and the importance of defense in Yanjin and Chaoge cannot be missed!
Although he felt that after Li Yan's defeat and Liu Yi's army was definitely insufficient, he dared not bet.
