Longyou and Shangyong were besieged by the Wei army one after another. Judging from the situation, Cao Wei was going to fight the Shu Han.

More than 200,000 soldiers and horses were besieged before and after, which can be said to be a huge investment.

In such a critical situation, the designated successor of the Shu Han military circle suddenly ran away, which undoubtedly made matters worse. Zhuge Liang not only had to divide his troops to assist Longyou, but also had to capture Ma Su himself, which was extremely difficult.

Zhuge Liang was completely angry at this moment. Why is this Ma Di always so disobedient? He just became the general of the auxiliary country and made such a fuss. If he becomes the general in the future, he will be in trouble!

When you catch him and come back, you must give him some real punishment!

Zhuge Liang quickly mobilized the armies in Shu to march north, letting former general Wu Ban lead the troops to Hanzhong first. At the same time, Zhuge Liang personally led the main force of the Northern Army to march northward, preparing to go to Nanzheng to take control.

As for the Hanzhong armies, Zhuge Liang did as Cao Zhen expected and sent Longyou to rescue them first.

There was no way, Ma Su was on one side and Long You plus Wei Yan plus Fei Yi were on the other side, both sides would be killed.

The situation in Longyou is actually not bad. Although the Wei army is coming fiercely, the defenders of Longyou are not a vegetarian.

Anding County was guarded by Wei Yan, the general of Zhenbei. He had nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, and his talents and military strength were enough to resist the enemy. Chencang was defended by Wang Ping and Shu Ji, and had the support of the entire Longyou army behind him. In addition, Fei Yi was not a mediocre man, so it would be difficult for the 100,000 Wei army to win quickly.

If the Hanzhong Army rushes to help, there will basically be no big surprises.

But Ma Di is what worries Zhuge Liang the most. Although this guy is blessed with good luck, there won't be much of a problem, but what if?

He is now the only person who has the ability to take over power from Zhuge Liang and maintain the motivation for the Shu Han's Northern Expedition. Once Ma Di is gone, Zhuge Liang cannot see a successor who can carry out the Northern Expedition to the end after him.

Therefore, Ma Su must be rescued as soon as possible, no matter how great the loss is, it must be carried out.

Three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find!

However, God seemed not to be kind at this time. When the Shu army was in urgent need of a smooth road to Shu, a major incident disrupted Zhuge Liang's plan.

The weather in Hanzhong has changed drastically!

In fact, Hanzhong will usher in the rainy season every spring. However, the terrain here in Hanzhong is relatively high, and there will not be too many heavy rains due to the high mountains.

In recent years, Hanzhong has had average rainfall and no major disasters.

However, everything happened by coincidence. At this critical moment, the weather in Hanzhong suddenly became strange.

As soon as Zhuge Liang left Chengdu, things changed before he reached Mianzhu and Hanzhong. Dark clouds quickly gathered, thunder and lightning struck, and the entire Hanzhong and Qinling Mountains seemed to be covered with a piece of cloth.

Then a thunder and lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a heavy downpour. The entire Qinling Mountains were covered by heavy rain in a very short period of time.

This time, unexpectedly, the scope of the heavy rain was astonishingly large.

This node is very unfortunate, which is very detrimental to the Shu army.

Because whether it is Qishan Road or Shuzhong Road, many of them are artificial plank roads. These wooden planks are not stable when the weather is sunny, let alone when it rains heavily.

When former general Wu Ban arrived at Jiange, he was immediately tripped up. The wooden plank road slowed down the march of the Shu army, and every day they moved forward like a turtle crawling.

By the time we get to Nanzheng, it will probably take half a month. If you still want to rush to help Longyou, I'm afraid you need to wait for the heavy rain to stop.

Zhuge Liang was very anxious about this, but felt that there was nothing he could do. Even if he has top-notch talents, he can't do anything when facing sudden changes in weather.

"Why exactly? I was watching the sky at night in Chengdu. There shouldn't be such heavy rain this year..." Above the Jiange, Zhuge Liang looked at the high mountains that had been shrouded in dark clouds, with an extremely sad face.

"Could it be that the big man was too successful in the past few years and ran out of luck, which led to the sudden change in the situation now?"

Zhuge Liang also had knowledge of astronomy and the ability to observe celestial phenomena at night. During his constant stargazing, there would be no heavy rainstorms in Shu for a long time.

But for some reason, everything suddenly changed, and the whole of Hanzhong also changed.

Such large-scale heavy rain has never been seen before. And at such a critical moment, it is difficult for Zhuge Liang not to worry about the changes in the north.

If something goes wrong in Longyou, Shuzhong will be in trouble if it can't be rescued in time! If Longyou is lost, everything will start over again, and the newly built confidence of the wealthy clans in Shu will collapse again.

But what makes Zhuge Liang happy is that it is really difficult for him to do it. But Ma Di, who was walking in Ziwu Valley, was obviously in a worse situation.

The roads in Ziwu Valley are narrow and there are many planks. In such bad weather, it is simply a fantasy for Ma Di to walk to Chang'an. Although with Ma Su's character, it is basically impossible to withdraw the troops voluntarily, it also delays the time for him to commit suicide.

In this way, Wu Ban may have a chance to catch him.

"The situation in Longyou can still be maintained. I hope God bless the man." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and subconsciously wanted to continue working, but suddenly he remembered that he left in a hurry and did not bring the government affairs with him.

Alas, the big man's current situation is just a relief.

The road ahead is long and the days ahead are long...

…………

…………

…………

Zhuge Liang's prediction of Ma Su's situation was correct or incorrect. There is a little bit of wrongness in the middle, and there is a little bit of wrongness in it... ahem, in short, I didn't guess it all.

As soon as Ma Su entered Ziwu Valley, a heavy rainstorm hit him within a few days. Heavy rain destroyed many plank roads, making the original road more difficult to travel.

However, Ma Su was indeed very lucky. He had just passed through a gentle area during the heavy rain. After encountering a heavy rain, Ma Su immediately found a nearby mountainous area to take shelter from the rain and be safe from flash floods.

For Ma Su, this is not a big problem, he can just move on after the rain stops.

However, both Jiang Wei and Liu Yin felt that God was not doing his best this day, and there was obviously a warning from God. If we march forward at this time, we will lose the opportunity.

"General, it's raining heavily now and the road is difficult to travel. I'm afraid it will be difficult for our army to move forward. By the time we reach Chang'an, I'm afraid the soldiers will be exhausted. Can we continue to fight?" Liu Yin advised Ma Di and persuaded him to retreat. .

"It's better to retreat back to Hanzhong to rest and wait for the opportunity."

Jiang Wei also said that he agreed with Liu Yin's view and should withdraw his troops now.

However, Ma Di said it was not a big problem.

"Xiuren, Boyue, have you forgotten what the Art of War says?" Ma Di waved his hand and pointed to the Ziwu Valley where the heavy rain was falling.

"Heavy rain and blocked roads make marching difficult. We know this, but why doesn't the Puppet Wei know it?"

"The other side must have expected that we would never be able to leave the Ziwu Valley in such weather, so we would be lax and lazy. This is the enemy's flaw and a sign of change in the world. How can we withdraw?"

We just need to wait for the heavy rain to pass, and quickly rush out of Ziwu Valley to defeat the Wei army! "
