Their army needs food, and Jiangdong has no food, so they can only take it from Zhuge Liang.The self-confidence of the new weapons made them know that there was an ambush, but they also went forward.

In addition to the two divisions in Hefei, the troops participating in the war also transferred seven brigades from Jianye.

A total of 5000 people.

Such a huge military force is enough to destroy everything.

Zhuge Liang felt a lot of pressure.

He had prepared everything and thought of everything.But still dare not make a move easily.

"How far is the enemy army from Guangling?" Zhuge Liang asked Huang Zhong in the tent.

"There are still 150 miles by land and [-] miles by water. By this time tomorrow, we should be able to reach Guangling. Mr. Kong Ming, I am a little worried." Huang Zhong said.

"I'm worried too."

"what?"

Even Zhuge Liang was worried, and Huang Zhong was even more hopeless.

"The enemy has too many troops coming. If it is impossible, we will withdraw first. Look for opportunities." Huang Zhong said.

"We must not retreat at this time." Zhuge Liang said: "Once we evacuate Guangling, we will be overtaken by the enemy's mobile forces. Without any terrain advantage, our chances of winning are very small. Restricting Guangling has been set by me. Lay heavy ambushes. No matter how strong the enemy is, they may not be able to win a complete victory. We also have a chance."

"Since the master has decided to fight, what can the general do?" Huang Zhong asked.

"Nothing needs to be done. Everything is going according to plan." Zhuge Liang hesitated a little, but decided to fight this battle.After defeating the enemy, Yangzhou will be saved.

It can temporarily relieve the pressure from Jiangdong.

if you can't win

He is also willing to face the consequences.

Anyway, give it a try.

The beginning of May has entered the mildew rain season.

Before the enemy's troops reached Guangling, it began to rain heavily.

The rain hit the road, making the road muddy and potholed.

The speed at which the enemy can advance is also greatly limited.

It was originally thought that the enemy would rush to Guangling in one day.

Due to the interference of rain, the speed of the march was slowed down, and it took three days to arrive.

After the enemy arrived, they didn't stay too long.

Immediately, a regiment of troops approached Guangling, probably wanting to test Zhuge Liang's firepower configuration.And the defense situation around Guangling.

Zhuge Liang sent five thousand elite troops to camp in a dangerous place.

He gave death orders to the soldiers guarding the camp.Be sure to stick to the ten days!Within ten days, dare to let an enemy soldier pass, and the guarding soldier will be cut.

This order boosted the morale of the soldiers.

Most of them reported their mortal intentions.

Once they fall, they will also be beheaded, and they will also be charged with deserting soldiers.And if you stand up to fight, you will not only have a chance to win, but if you die in the battle, your family will also be compensated.

With such thoughts in mind, the soldiers had no choice.

Five thousand soldiers were stationed in dangerous places.

In the face of a regiment's attack, guard against death.

The enemy's strength is small, the attack density is not high, and there are no heavy weapons.

The soldiers guarding the village held on for half a day without losing an inch of ground.

But in the evening, enemy reinforcements arrived.There are more than 3000 troops, carrying mortars, heavy machine gun platoons, and a large number of grenades.

Their attack methods are far stronger than the previous 1000 people.

boom boom boom

Intensive shells smashed over.

All the front walls were destroyed.

The soldiers guarding the village suffered heavy casualties.

"Report." A soldier rushed to the camp and said to the general guarding the camp: "Mr. Kong Ming has an order for you to withdraw from the battle immediately. Fifteen miles away, and the second camp has been built, you go there to repair it."

"Didn't Mr. Kong Ming say that we must persist for ten days? How can the military order be changed just for half a day?!" said the general guarding the stronghold.

"This is also a military order, please carry it out, general!" said the soldier who came to deliver the order.

"Yes."

Military orders are like mountains, and no one dares to disobey them.

The generals guarding the camp immediately issued an order, and the whole army withdrew from the camp and ran fifteen miles away.

As soon as the army withdrew, the enemy captured the camp.

One of the regiments went to pursue it, but after running not far, it was stopped by Zhuge Liang's temporary ambush.Only half of the regiment was left, and they fled back in embarrassment.

Fifteen miles away.

In the new camp.

Zhuge Liang and Huang Zhong are here.

"Sir, he said he would stick to it for ten days, but it was broken in half a day. How can we win if we fight like this?" Huang Zhong is now very worried.

Feeling like being scratched by a cat.

Zhuge Liang said: "The enemy's firepower is very fierce. We can hold on for a day, which is good. Don't worry, old general. When the enemy comes here, it will be stopped by our army."

"Sir, it's too dangerous here, you'd better go back to Guangling, and let the last general guard the stronghold." Huang Zhong said.

"You don't know how to use the Eight Diagrams Formation, I have to be there in person." Zhuge Liang called several captains and ordered: "You go and get ready, I want the enemy to see the power of the Eight Diagrams Formation."

"promise."
