Chapter 113 The first-come Lu Xun

"Natural from Hanzhong!" Zhao Feng said loudly, as if he didn't notice the different defenders in the city at all. If he said this, it can't be miscalculated. He did come from Hanzhong. It's just that it seems to mean that he fought all the way here from Hanzhong. Shenma Jianmengguan and Jianmenguan were asked to clean up.

Fei Guan and the Yizhou army in the city obviously thought so. After listening to Zhao Feng's words, almost all of them changed their faces and began to exchange their opinions. There is no need to listen. Zhao Feng knows that they have been scared.

"General, I have always respected the general, and now I have no choice but to meet him on the battlefield. Please remember the old feelings. Don't make it difficult for me to wait!" After Fei Guan reacted, he began to carry out an emotional offensive, but in this way, it made people feel that he was begging for mercy.

"I know that the Duke of Shu was also deceived by the annihire, so he was in a dilemma with us. This march is only to destroy those evil villains. Binbo is an old friend, and Zhao doesn't want to meet your soldiers. As long as Binbo opened the city, Zhao promised that he would never hurt the soldiers and civilians of Mianzhu. Otherwise, I can only attack the city with a large army!" Zhao Feng is soft and hard. I have to say that this man is now bluffing. He has only 5,000 people on hand, of which half of the Thai is still surrendered. The Mianzhu garrison is more than 10,000. No matter how poor the combat effectiveness of the Sichuan army is, no matter how bad Fei Guan can't fight, he has little chance of winning if he wants to attack the city.

However, Fei Guan has been scared. Looking at the Hanzhong army that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, Fei Guan took it for granted that all the passes had been lost before. Although there are only 5,000 Hanzhong soldiers in the city now, the army will continue to come over. Thinking of this, Fei Guan's confidence in resolute resistance is not too sufficient.

Looking at the soldiers around him who were talking about it, Fei Guan said with some difficulty, "If I wait for the city to surrender, I don't know if the general can restrain his men and disturb the people in the city?" For surrender, Fei Guan's psychological barrier is not very big. He is Liu Zhang's brother-in-law. Even if he surrenders, he will not embarrass his family. His worries are gone.

"This is natural. Don't you know the military discipline of our army, Uncle Bin?" As soon as Zhao Feng heard that there was a door, he quickly made a promise. Fei Guan looked at the soldiers in the city, and they were all looking at themselves with anticipation, and the eagerness in their eyes was more obvious.

"I'm willing to surrender!" Using all his strength to say these words, Fei Guan ordered Kaicheng to surrender. Zhao Feng's 5,000 troops were stationed in the city, and the original more than 10,000 defenders were quickly collected. In order to prevent mutat, Zhao Feng even confiscated more than half of the Sichuan army's weapons and directly disbanded them and went home. Of course, the result of this is that Zhang Ren in Lucheng and even Liu Zhang in Chengdu knew the news of Mianzhu's loss from these scattered soldiers. This blow to their morale is really big enough.

"Mianzhu Pass has been lost?" In the city of Luan, Zhang Ren looked at the dozens of disarmed Sichuan soldiers who had just run in front of him and asked in disbelief. After receiving the same affirmative answer, Zhang Ren was also stunned for a long time, and then waved to these people to retreat, and a group of people were waiting to settle them.

"How did Zhao Feng kill Mianzhu directly? Have the Jianmeng Pass, Jiangyou, Fushui Pass and Jianmen Pass all been lost? General Ma Yan was a little unbelievable. Not to mention him, even Zhang Ren was speechless for a while. A group of generals of the Sichuan army talked about it, but they didn't get the point.

"Just half a month ago, General Leng Bao of Baomengguan also sent people to ask for food and fodder. At that time, Mengguan was still in the hands of our army. What ability did Zhao Botao use to calm down so many passes in half a month? Liu Han recalled what happened a few days ago and suddenly remembered this problem. Zhang Ren calmed down and quickly took the map to check.

"Strange, where did the Hanzhong army come from?" Zhang Ren muttered, but finally stared at the Wenshan area on the map. Are they taking the Yinping Pass Plank Road? Zhang Ren suddenly said.

"Yinpingguan Plank Road?" Not everyone else knew about this road and asked for a while. Zhang Ren motioned everyone to stop the discussion, and then said, "The Yinping Pass plank road has been abandoned for a long time. Unexpectedly, Zhao Summit went there and bypassed the Jianmen Pass."

"Governor, let's quickly send troops to recover Mianzhu and Jiang You, and expel Zhao from Xichuan?" After listening to Zhang Ren, Xiang Cun quickly suggested. Zhang Ren was very hesitant when he heard the words. Now he knows nothing about the situation of Jianmeng Pass and Jianmen Pass, and it is even inappropriate to send troops rashly. But if he doesn't send troops, then once Zhao Feng attacks inside and outside, or cuts off the grain road, the loss of these passes will only be a matter of time.

"Hang Cun, support the ban, I will go with 20,000 of you to take back Mianzhu!" Although he knew that there was little hope, Zhang Ren was never willing to stay in the city. He knew that if he couldn't open the situation here, he could only count on Yan Yan from Brazil. However, what Zhang Ren did not expect was that even Yan Yan, a veteran who had been in the battlefield for a long time, suffered a big loss in the face of Lu Xun, a newborn calf.

"What, did the Hanzhong army retreat, or did it retreat south along the Dianjiang River to Deyang?" In Langzhong City, Yan Yan was also surprised to hear that Tan Ma came to report like this. Wu Ban, who was beside him, frowned when he heard the words and said, "If the Hanzhong army wants to retreat, it should also retreat to the Nanjiang River or Dangqu. Why do you want to go to Deyang?"

"It's not good. They want to attack Dudu Zhang!" Yan Yan unfolded the map and was shocked. After Zhang Ren retired to Guanghan, Deyang had been occupied by Zhang Fei. Once Lu Xun went south to Deyang, he could attack Zhang Ren from both sides, and even cross the Dianjiang River to attack Chengdu. Thinking of this, Yan Yan also broke out in a cold sweat.

"General, what should we do?" Wu Ban suddenly realized when he heard Yan Yan's words, and then asked anxiously. Yan Yan was thinking about countermeasures, and it happened that an emergency military situation arrived at this time.

"Ka Mengguan and Jianmenguan found the Hanzhong army?" Yan Yancao took a look at the military situation and thought of Lu Xun's abnormal behavior at present. He immediately understood: "Zhao Botao divided his troops to get the Jianmeng Pass and Jianmen Pass, but the remaining troops were insufficient, but they could only go south to join Zhang Fei. I said why he hasn't been attacking the city these days, so it is!" What Yan Yan doesn't know is that Zhao Feng is not here at all now.

"Old General, what should we do?" This is the second time that Wu Ban has asked. In this case, Yan Yan still needs to make a decision. Yan Yan thought for a moment and finally said, "The guards of Jianmen Pass are no less than 10,000 people. Zhao Botao divided his troops to get them, and it is difficult to succeed. We have 50,000 troops and have nothing to do here. Dudu Zhang must be in a tight place. It is safest for us to go south to destroy Zhao Botao first and recover Ba County to cut off Zhang Fei's way back.

"But according to the old general's orders!" Wu Ban also felt that Yan Yan's strategy was relatively smart. At present, Yan Yan left 5,000 defenders stationed in Langzhong. He and Wu Ban led more than 40,000 troops to the south to chase Lu Xun and recover Ba County by the way.

"General, are we chasing too fast? Be careful of ambush!" Seeing that Yan Yan tried his best to urge the army to move forward, Wu Ban couldn't help but propose with some concern.

"Hehe, Yuan Xiong, you don't know anything. I know that there is no danger to set up an ambush on this road. Even if Zhao Feng wants to set up an ambush, the lack of troops can only be counterproductive!" Yan Yan is full of confidence.

"It's strange, old general, why did they run along the Dianjiang River?" Wu Ban suddenly found a problem. This road is too close to the Dianjiang River, but more than a mile away.

"I think they have prepared the raft and want to go down the stream to Deyang as soon as possible!" Yan Yan guessed. What he didn't know was that Lu Xun was indeed prepared, but not to run away.

"General, there is an ambush from the enemy in front!" At this moment, the sentry suddenly came to report. Sure enough, a soldier and horse of about two or three thousand people suddenly came out from both sides of the road, straight into the middle of Yan Yan's army. Yan Yan was in danger and sneered to command the army to launch a counterattack. Indeed, as Yan Yan expected, the ambush on this road was very unhelpful. The number of people was small, and the place was too open. Not long after the battle, he was beaten by the Sichuan army, so he had to flee south in a hurry.

"Don't chase, in case of fraud!" Yan Yan stopped Wu Ban, who wanted to continue to pursue. Anyway, it was not far from Deyang, and he was not afraid that they would find any flowers. At present, Yan Yan ordered the army to move forward steadily and slowly, and it was not until the evening that it was stationed in an open place.

"Old general, why don't you march at night and rush to Deyang early to make a perfect plan?" Wu Ban asked in surprise. . But he heard Yan Yan say, "Our army said to march, and it was very tired. There is only one day left from Deyang. It's better to rest for a night to restore vitality, and then attack Deyang and respond to Governor Zhang!"

"That's right!" Wu Ban also agreed with Yan Yan's steady approach, and now the army is stationed on this wide beach. Although she wanted to have a good rest, Yan Yan did not dare to be too careless. She sent the scouts more than ten miles away and came to report as soon as the wind blew.

"General, as you expected, Yan Yan will camp there tonight!" More than ten miles upstream opposite the Dianjiang River, Chen Shi reported to Lu Xun.

"That's good, Captain Chen, inform the soldiers upstream to dig the dam and release water in the middle of the night!" Lu Xun said lightly. Chen Shi knew that as soon as the water was released, he was afraid that the 40,000 Sichuan troops would have at least more than half of their casualties.

Half a month ago, Lu Xun set this plan to flood Yan Yan at the moment of the division of troops. He knew that once he led the army to the south, Yan Yan would definitely come to chase him. However, there are not enough soldiers on the road, and even if they are ambush, it will not help. The only thing that can be borrowed is external force.

Lu Xun sent people to carefully detect this section of the terrain. Now the place where Yan Yan garrison is relatively low. Once the water level of the pad river soars, it is likely to be submerged. Therefore, since half a month ago, Lu Xun sent people to build a dam in a hidden place in the upper reaches and store the river water. When Yan Yan came here, he flooded people. There is a lot of rain this year. Although Xichuan and Hanzhong have not been flooded, the water level of the Dianjiang River is still much higher than in previous years. Once the water is released, it is enough to drown Yan Yan's army.

Lu Xun also took great pains to lure Yan to stay here. This place is very open, and it is a good place to camp. The ambush on that road was to slow down Yan Yan's march and let him arrive here in the evening. Lu Xun knew that Yan Yan was cautious and rarely marched at night, so Yan Yan would inevitably choose to camp here. After waiting for the Sichuan army to finish, he used the beacon to inform the soldiers upstream to dig the dyke and flood Yan Yan.

So that night, when the Sichuan army was asleep, he seemed to hear the sound of thunder in a daze. Since it is already summer, thunder is normal, and no one pays attention to it. It's just that Yan Yan listened to the thunder for too long, so she felt something was wrong and quickly put on her clothes and went out of the village. At this look, Yan Yan was immediately stunned.
