Ma Su could still smile on the battlefield, but when he arrived at the Han army camp, his smile was transferred to other people's faces.

Facts have proved that smiles are conserved. When you are not smiling, someone must be smiling for you.

On that day, it was said that Zhuge Liang had cut off the newly created chicken feather Zenzi. Then, after the military affairs were mostly handled that day, we re-researched the new Luban Lock overnight.

When the Han army was full of smiles, Guo Huai also returned to Chang'an to report the results of the battle.

Although he did not gain much this time, Guo Huai still received the admiration of all the generals in Guanzhong. At least Guo Huai was able to block the Han army for an hour and a half and complete the task.

Finally, after Ma Su took action, he was able to bring back the cavalry into an organized form. This has been confirmed, Guo Huai has rich experience against the Shu army.

Sima Yi also expressed his approval of the results reported by Guo Huai.

Obviously, the range and lethality of the Thunderbolt Vehicle are sufficient. Guo Huai's strategy is feasible to deal with the earth walls built by Xi Shu.

In this case, Sima Yi also made a corresponding decision, letting Guo Huai and Sima Shi take full responsibility for countering the Shu army's wall-building strategy.

For a time, all the workshops and manpower in Chang'an were put into it, and the entire Chang'an started building the Thunderbolt Car with full power. A large number of people cut down trees from Waihu County, Chang'an, and then transported them to Chang'an via corridors, and then built them into Pili chariots.

At the same time, there was still some spare manpower, so Sima Yi also asked them to build stirrups and horseshoes on a large scale. All Cao Wei cavalry in Guanzhong began to iterate their equipment and practiced day and night under the leadership of Guo Huai.

Along the entire Chang'an defense line, the Wei army's camp began to operate at full strength, preparing to add all its strength to the Shu army.

It should be said that Guo Huai's plan was successful. After the cavalry had a large iteration of equipment and continued training, Guo Huai led the Wei army to launch multiple assaults on the Shu army.

Especially when Sima Shi cooperated with him as a feint attack, Guo Huai acted even faster. A large number of thunderbolt chariots were sent to the battlefield and advanced 800 steps in front of the Han army's formation to wreak havoc on the Shu army's earthen wall defenses.

The Wei cavalry led by Guo Huai also continued to experience the attacks of the Han cavalry, trying to continuously improve their fighting skills.

Under this style of play, the Wei army succeeded one after another on the long front. Section after section of the earthen wall was demolished, forcing the Shu army to redeploy civilians to continue the construction.

It is obvious that the Shu army's construction speed is slower than the Wei army's destruction speed. Especially in the many subsequent battles, Ma Di never showed up, and it was difficult for Wu Yigou and others to defeat Guo Huai head-on. This allowed Guo Huai to even bring the Pili car back to Chang'an intact after destroying the earth wall.

For a time, the Wei army won many victories and its morale was greatly boosted. Many generals and soldiers began to have hope in defending Chang'an.

But such seemingly continuous battles made Sima Yi frown deeper and deeper. Later, Sima Yi began to allocate manpower to prepare, and no longer went all out to build the Thunderbolt Chariot.

As the most veteran fox in Cao Wei, Sima Yi's many years of combat experience told him that there was a problem.

In his opinion, although Guo Huai's style of play is disgusting, it is not impossible to counterattack. Ma Di and Zhuge Liang are both extremely cunning people. How could they watch Guo Huai lie like this?

Especially Ma Su, who is famous for his bad temper, and as a result, no one can be seen now.

Moreover, on the long front, all the Shu army's offensives came to a standstill. Except for Wei Yan of Lishan who was still competing with Sun Li for Chi Dao, the other fronts were all surprisingly quiet.

In a battle situation where everything seemed to be going smoothly, Sima Yi was stunned to see the sense of urgency that the storm was about to come!

"Something's wrong! Something's completely wrong! Ma Su's son definitely has some conspiracy! What did I miss?" Sima Yi frowned, and several of his hair turned gray as he thought about it day and night. But so far, he really couldn't think of any omissions.

At this moment, like the prime ministers in history, he tried every means to save the defeat in the face of a bloody situation. But even though he had considered all aspects carefully, there were still some oversights that he didn't expect and the situation continued to collapse.

Feeling tired has become Sima Yi's biggest worry now.

The confrontation between the two sides continued for another two months, and the Wei army made very smooth progress in all aspects. But the ominous premonition in Sima Yi's heart became more and more obvious, and he had already begun to write a letter to Sima Fu to say goodbye.

Goodbye, brother. It won’t be long before we two brothers live in two separate countries.

Finally, after four months of confrontation with the Wei army and two months of silence, the Han army camp suddenly took action in January of the 13th year of Jianxing.

On this morning, the Wei army post suddenly discovered abnormal movements in the Shu army's main camp. A large number of Han soldiers were digging up the earth and demolishing the already relatively solid earth walls.

This action aroused the excitement of the Wei army, thinking that the Shu army would finally give up and withdraw.

But when the news reached Sima Yi, a flash of understanding suddenly flashed in the old artist's eyes.

"Something's wrong! The Shu army is clearing the way for something!" Sima Yi suddenly stood up, quickly put on his armor himself, and gave an urgent order,

"Pass the order! From Huxian to Chang'an, all units are on combat readiness! All soldiers must wear armor, and all officers must be on duty!"

"Urgent notification to all the generals, follow me to the city wall! I'm afraid the Shu army will have a showdown with us!"

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment when they saw that the usually steady Governor suddenly became as hairy as if his tail had been stepped on. The generals who were familiar with Sima Yi became even more nervous. They realized that things seemed to be serious.

Under Sima Yi's emergency military order, all the Wei military units in and around Chang'an were on high alert. All the soldiers were lined up in armor, and officers were on patrol. Everyone's nerves collapsed again.

However, in their opinion, perhaps the Shu army was about to launch a final battle before withdrawing. Therefore, although the Wei army felt that a fierce battle was coming, the problem was not big.

Soon, Sima Yi arrived at the city of Chang'an with his bodyguards and generals. From this place, Sima Yi could see the movements of the Han army very clearly.

In his sight, a large number of soldiers were armed and clearing the land and clearing the way. Even though the gap has been opened very wide, the Han army is still expanding outward.

"Is it finally coming?" Sima Yi's palms were already covered with sweat as he stared closely at the movements of the Han army.

Finally, the Han army cleared the nearly ten meters of earth wall blocking the front of the main camp. After the gap was large enough, the Han army slowly dragged out the big killer weapon that had been covered for two months with the levy of ox generals from an invisible place.

Yes, they use cows!

And when the big killer weapon revealed its true face, Sima Yi's eyes suddenly stared like bells, and his face suddenly changed.

"What the hell is that!!"
