Chapter 162 8. The thief cuts the wheat

The three-way Wei soldiers took Xishu, with a head but no tail, and returned halfway. This is also Zhuge Liang's successful battle.In this way, Zhuge Liang has fought against Wei Bing four times.The first time he lost Jieting failed, the second attack on Hao Zhao failed, and the third time he succeeded in taking Wudu Yinping. This time Cao Bing withdrew by himself, of course Zhuge Liang won. Four fights, two losses and two wins.Zhuge Liang felt ashamed, so he decided to do it again, this time he had to make something famous. The official name of this battle is the Battle of Shangyu, and the informal name is Thief Cutting Wheat.

This time it was Zhuge Liang who shot again, and Sima Yi came to resist.Zhuge Liang has three generals here, Wang Ping, Gao Xiang and Wu Ban.There are also three generals on Sima Yi's side, Zhang Yun, Guo Huai and Fei Yao. In addition, this time Zhuge Liang also used high-tech technology to use wooden cattle to transport grain and grass. The wooden ox is actually a kind of small cart. The inventor of this kind of small cart is not Zhuge Liang, but in Zhuge Liang's hometown, there are many such carts, and the locals call them Tuniu.Zhuge Liang improved it and increased its technical content, so it was named Wooden Bull.But there is another saying that the earth cow is actually a wooden cow, which was invented by Zhuge Liang in Xishu and spread back to Nanyang.In short, whether it is an earthen ox or a wooden ox, it is just a cart.

At the beginning of the battle, Zhuge Liang first led people to fight Qishan.So Sima Yi hurried over with his people and arrived at Shangyu City. Hearing that Sima Yi was coming, Zhuge Liang was overjoyed and said: "Sima Yi, you finally came. If you don't hit you this time, your face will be covered in blood, and I, Zhuge Liang, won't be able to get along." Leaving Wang Ping to continue attacking Qishan, Zhuge Liang led the main force to attack Shangyu violently, and went to Sima Yi to challenge him one-on-one. After receiving the information about Zhuge Liang's attack, Sima Yi quietly hid the information and did not show it to Fei Yao, who was at the bottom.It's fine if you don't show it to others, so he called Fei Yao over and said flickeringly: "Old Fei, you are very good at fighting, and I am optimistic about you. I will give you an easy job. You stay here. I will lead the main force and go to Qishan Single-handedly challenge Zhuge Liang, if I don’t hit Zhuge Liang this time, I won’t say anything.”

Fei Yao didn't know that he was being sold, so he counted the money for Sima Yi excitedly, and said, "Leader, don't worry, Zhuge Liang wouldn't dare to come here anyway with you here, I will lead the masses to make a good autumn harvest." Sima Yi took Zhang Ying, Guo Huai, and Jia Xu, the supervisor sent by Cao Pi, to lead the main force out of the city and head east.At that time, the generals shouted: "Wrong, wrong way, Qishan is in the southwest, how did you go to the east?" "Hurry up..." Sima Yi yelled, and galloped his horse: "Zhuge Liang is coming soon, whoever runs slowly will be caught by him, don't blame me..." All the generals were dumbfounded before they knew Zhuge Liang It was about to arrive, so I didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly compared the speed with Sima Yi, and the three armies ran away desperately.

Not long after Sima Yi fled, Zhuge Liang arrived. Fei Yao didn't know that it was Zhuge Liang who came, and he took four thousand people out of the city, and swabbed them, but he was beaten so fast that he ran back and closed the city gate tightly, determined not to come out. Zhuge Liang took the opportunity to harvest all the wheat around Shangbi City.After harvesting the wheat, Zhuge Liang happily greeted the silly Fei Yao in the city: "Tip, I am optimistic about you. Stand there and don't move. If you dare to move, I will attack the city." Fei Yao really stood there, not daring to move.And Zhuge Liang drove the army, instead of returning to Qishan, pursued Sima Yi along the east.Sima Yi hurriedly fled to a dangerous place, hid and kept silent, Zhuge Liang had no choice but to retreat again.

After Zhuge Liang left, Sima Yi came out from the hiding place, followed Zhuge Liang, and tiptoed to Lucheng.Suddenly Zhuge Liang's troops turned around sharply and rushed towards Sima Yi. Sima Yi shouted: "Everyone, run away, don't blame me if you run slowly..." He took the lead and fled to the top of the mountain. , also followed behind him, running up the mountain in a hurry. At the top of the mountain, Jia Xu was the first to get angry.He is an old man in the Cao Cao era, and he is entitled to be angry.He only heard him yelling: "Sima Yi, please don't be so shameless? You are afraid of Zhuge Liang, a little too much. If this matter gets out, I will see how shameless you are."

Zhang He and Guo Huai also said angrily: "That's right, one general is incompetent, and thousands of troops are exhausted. Do you think we have been tormented by you? If you are really afraid, just squat on the mountain alone, and we will go down and fight." Sima Yi asked: "Are you really going to fight?" Zhang He and Guo Huai: "Can it be faked?" Sima Yi sighed: "If you really want to fight, I can remind you that Zhuge Liang is a rare genius in the world. If the battle goes against you, everyone must preserve your strength, but don't..." "Don't talk about it..." The angry Wei Jun roared and swooped down into Zhuge Liang's camp.
