Chapter 114 Some things are not enough to be done once
The pad river is still flowing calmly during the day. Suddenly, the waves are rough and rushing straight downstream. The slightly lower beaches on both sides of the river have all been flooded, and now the water is surging and pushing towards its own camp directly.
"Quick, withdraw!" Yan Yan has always been calm. When he encountering this nature, he has no choice but to ask the army to retreat as soon as possible. But the flood peak is only a hundred feet away from here, and it arrived in an instant. In such a short time, even the sleeping soldiers can't be awakened, let alone avoid them in time.
In the roar, the Sichuan army's camp was half submerged, and many soldiers were still buried in the belly of the fish in their dreams. Maybe it's lucky, because they saved them the pain of drowning alive. At a slightly higher ground, the soldiers finally have a little time to react. But when it was dark in the middle of the night, in the face of the surging flood, it was difficult to be spared unless they were excellent people. The army was in chaos. Everyone crawled as high as possible in the dark. No one could tell how many people were drowned and how many were trampled to death.
Yan Yan was lucky. He and Wu Ban and hundreds of soldiers were stationed on a small dirt slope and were not flooded by the flood. But his good luck also ended here. At dawn, after Yan Yan saw the tragedy of his camp, he couldn't help but be stunned after a long time.
The battalion where 40,000 troops are stationed has been flooded. The whole camp is now completely a large pond with countless floating corpses of Sichuan soldiers floating on it. There are also some people who know water, although they are lucky not to drown, they are struggling in the water, and they are afraid they can't survive for too long.
"General, did Zhao Feng come here?" At this time, more than a hundred large and small rafts in the upper reaches went down the river, and the banner was the Hanzhong Army. Yan Yan took a breath and was about to ask someone to fight, but in the end, she sighed and said nothing more. The hundreds of people around him have begun to tremble, not to mention the Sichuan army who are not dead in the water. After seeing the raft, these people only have to survive. How can they have the courage to fight with their opponents?
"General, what should we do?" Looking at this dangerous situation, Wu Ban was ready to cry without tears. Yan Yan looked around and looked at the enemy rafts getting closer and closer. Finally, he said astringently, "Yuan Xiong, you are still young. There is no need to die in vain here. Just surrender!" Liu Xuande has never killed and surrendered. If you surrender, he will not embarrass you!"
"General, what about you?" Wu Ban heard that there was something in Yan Yan's words, so he couldn't help but be worried and hurriedly asked.
"I, Yan Yan, am deeply deeply loved by the two generations of Shu's father and son. Now I am nearly 60 years old, and I don't have much time. Do I have to leave a bad name before I die? Now tens of thousands of troops are lost, and only one is dead to thank the Duke of Shu!" After Yan Yan said this, she immediately pulled out the long sword at her waist and wanted to commit suicide. Wu Ban has been paying attention to Yan Yan's movements for a long time. As soon as the latter drew his sword, he quickly stepped forward and pulled it and cried, "Once the old general asks for death, what kind of face do we have to be alone? This defeat is not the crime of the old general. It is really a natural disaster!" After the people around him reacted, they also hurriedly gathered forward and pulled Yan Yan to prevent him from dying. In this battle, Lu Xun flooded 40,000 Sichuan troops, drowned and killed nearly 30,000. Finally, more than 10,000 Sichuan troops, including the main general Yan Yan and deputy general Wu Ban, were captured. After that, Lu Xun used Wu Ban, who surrendered, to persuade Brazil's Taishou Pang Yi to surrender, and easily calmed down Brazil. After a short break and collecting enough rafts, he led the army to go straight to Chengdu along the south of the Yangtze River.
Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei naturally did not know that after the former occupied Mianzhu, the Sichuan army came to attack on the third day. However, what kind of goods are Xiang Cun and Fuban? With a ten-to-one military advantage in history, we can't help Huo Jun, and now we can't help Zhao Feng. The two of them waved their troops and attacked several times, but Mianzhu Pass was still as solid as gold. At the same time, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang have also arrived in Lucheng, and Zhang Ren had to concentrate on dealing with the two people in front of him first.
Before the gate, He Qi's 10,000 troops were stationed here for some days. According to the agreement, just wait for the beacon smoke to ignite after the customs, and then take advantage of the situation to attack the customs. After waiting for two days, just when He Qi felt something was wrong. When he was about to send someone to inquire, the long-awaited beacon finally rose!
"Attack the city!" At the order of He Qi, dozens of ladders were immediately set up, and a team of soldiers climbed up along the ladder. To He Qi's surprise, the troops who attacked the city were hardly resisted and directly attacked the Meng Pass. Except for less than a thousand people resisting, the rest can't even be seen.
"Is it General He Qi?" Just as He Qi was about to find someone to ask for details, he heard someone greeting him. At this moment, several soldiers in Sichuan army clothes came over. He Qi took a closer look, and the first person was Wang Ping.
"Zijun, what's going on? Where's the guard?" He Qi asked with some puzzlement. At this time, the army had all entered the barrier, but they didn't know why more than 10,000 enemy troops disappeared out of thin air.
"Hey hey, it's convenient to go!" Wang Pingjun smiled and looked at He Qi's puzzled face. He quickly explained to him in detail: "After pretending to be a grain transporter and entering the Ga Meng Pass, we secretly planted a sufficient amount of foodou in the water source of the garrison. Now all the 10,000 troops are gone! There are not so many toilets in the city. They have all gone to the mountain behind the gate!"
"What?" He Qi also looked extremely strange when he heard the words. At this time, a gust of wind blew, and He Qi could faintly smell the stench in the wind. Just imagining the scene of 10,000 people on the mountain, He Qi has already felt that this is really spectacular enough. Take advantage of the Sichuan army's weak legs and feet, and bring them down as soon as possible!" He Qi finally reacted in time and quickly arranged the next step. Wang Ping nodded and led people to catch the Sichuan army alive. Because of Wang Ping's Badou's achievements, He Qi was almost bloodless, so he took down the Meng Pass, and the guards Leng Bao and Deng Xian were captured alive. Of course, as the saying goes, there are gains and losses. The price paid is that He Qi and Wang Ping have to clean up the gold all over the mountains. It is hard to say whether this kind of bad profit is earned or lost.
A similar scene was also staged at Jianmen Pass. The difference is that the implementer became Niu Jin, and Zhu Ran had seen this move in Dingjun Mountain last time, which was just a little surprised. After being captured alive, Wu Yi also said his eternal words: Since I was caught, how can I not surrender? ( Damn, Nan Tian has never seen such a righteous surrender in the whole Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Wu Yi is really a rare talent!) Under the leadership of Wu Yi, Zhu Ran and Niu Jin passed through Zitong County all the way from Jianmen Pass to Mianzhu Pass unimpeded. Along the way, the pass was surrendered by Wu Yi one after another. At the same time, Wang Ping and He Qi also led their troops from Jiameng Pass to Mianzhu Pass, passing through the counties of Hanjia County. So far, only Guanghan County, Shu County and Qianwei County were still under Liu Zhang's control. Li Hui, the guard of Hanjia County, had just been persuaded by Zhuge Liang to surrender. At present, Zhang Ren, who is guarding the city of Guanghan County, can block Zhang Fei and Zhao Feng at best, but he can't stop Lu Xun, who has solved Yan Yan, from going straight down the south of the Yangtze River to Chengdu. Of course, there are less than 20,000 people around Lu Xun, and there are 30,000 defenders in Chengdu, but this does not prevent him from threatening Chengdu from going south. After all, he can also send reinforcements from Hanzhong and even Jingzhou. It's just that with Lu Xun's wisdom, he won't use such a stupid idea. And Liu Zhang's will is also more fragile than everyone's imagination, all of which is a later story.
As for now, after He Qi and Zhu Ran led the army to Mianzhu by one day, Zhao Feng's command has also gathered more than 30,000 people, and there is no disadvantage in the army. However, Zhang Ren also got the news at this time, and quickly transferred Xiang Cun and Fu Ban back to Lucheng to defend Guanghan County. Zhao Feng chased with all his strength, but only had time to catch up with the opponent's tail and fought a battle, and failed to annihilate the main force of the Sichuan army. Zhang Ren gathered the last 50,000 people and prepared to defend the last gateway of Chengdu.
"The decisive decision is made, and the strong man breaks his wrist. Zhang Ren is indeed a famous general in the world!" After the pursuit of Xiang Cun and the ban failed, He Qi also sighed. Leaving Zhu Ran to guard Mianzhu, Zhao Feng led 20,000 horses to Lucheng and converged Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang to deal with Zhang Ren.
"Bao, I didn't expect you to break through the natural danger so soon. It's really admirable!" In the account of the Chinese army, Zhang Fei also praised Zhao Feng for his marching speed. But no one thinks that Zhang Fei is exaggerating. It is really not easy for tens of thousands of people to break through the world.
"The three generals were flattered. Fortunately, I was able to pass through the Yinping Pass, and then I succeeded in one fell swoop. Compared with Zhang Ren, the increase of troops by the three generals and Zhuge military divisions, Zhao is far from it!" Zhao Feng said modestly. For a moment, everyone praised each other, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
"As long as you take down the city, you can hit Chengdu!" Zhang Fei is full of confidence. However, Zhao Feng still did not dare to be careless. In history, Liu Bei took the river, and at the beginning, it was still smooth. Jiangyou and Fushuiguan took them all effortlessly, but they were trapped under Luocheng City for nearly two years, and even Pang Tong hung on Luofengpo. The reason why it took Liu Bei three years to win Xichuan is that it can be said that this Lucheng played a role in determining the surname. Now that it's the repeat of history, it's your turn to face it. How dare you be careless?
"General, General Lu Boyan's flying pigeon biography!" Just as everyone was bragging and farting, someone suddenly came to report the military situation on Lu Xun's side. Zhang Fei was the main general. First of all, he took over the military newspaper and couldn't help but look very strange. Everyone circulated for a week. Except for Zhao Feng and Zhuge Liang, most of them looked unbelievable.
"Yan Yan's army has been annibbed, and Brazil has been conquered?" After reading the military newspaper, Ma Yan muttered to himself. His tone was full of disbelief. Yang Yi beside him was even more puzzled, "Lu Boyan is exaggerating. After General Zhao transferred troops, there were only less than 20,000 horses there. How can he defeat Yan Yan's 40,000 troops?"
"The way of war, the use of the magic, keep it with one heart!" Zhao Feng sighed. At this time, Zhuge Liang said to Zhang Fei, "General Three, since Lu Boyan has calmed down Brazil, why don't you let him go south and go straight to Chengdu along the Dianjiang River and force Liu Zhang to surrender? I'll wait and make a quick decision, so that I don't have to fight with Zhang Ren!"
"Lu Boyan has no more than 10,000 people. How can he force Liu Zhang to surrender?" Although Zhang Fei also wanted to solve the battle as soon as possible, he told him that it was a little too hasty to do so.
"Ha ha, although there are still tens of thousands of defenders in Chengdu, Liu Jiyusheng's surname is cowardly. There is no war, and he has never been beaten to Chengdu. Now, once Lu Boyan's soldiers come to the city, I'm afraid that he will be scattered. If he doesn't help, he will also invite Zhang Ren back to defend Chengdu. We will wait in Lucheng, and we will naturally have the opportunity to take advantage of it!" Zhuge Liang is full of confidence.
"That's true!" Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Zhang Fei also understood and quickly replied to Lu Xun and asked him not to mention it. Zhao Feng looked at Zhuge Liang. This guy really has a good hand. When using tricks, he included the characteristics of the other party's surname and surname, and he had to learn more from him.
Aside from Zhao Feng's messy ideas, this night, when he was about to rest, he heard the sentry outside the tent report that Zhuge Liang came to visit.
