Wucheng County, Pang Xi, dressed in armor, stood at the top of the city, his heart was filled with an unspeakable bitterness. In just one month, his army had dropped from 10,000 to less than 3,000.

It was a crushing defeat he had never suffered in more than a decade.

In the distance, there were countless tents in the wilderness at the foot of the mountain. Yan Yan personally led the eight thousand troops to attack Wucheng. Fortunately, Wucheng was strong and tall, which prevented the enemy from continuing to march eastward.

Pang Xi had realized the reason for his failure, that is, he refused to give up Badong County and divided the troops that were not already dominant into two, but was defeated by Yan Yan one by one, but how could he be willing to give up Badong County.

Woolen cloth?

After all, he shouldn't have accepted Jianping County. Although he knew that Liu Jing was using the Dongzhou scholars, he was also using Jingzhou to expand his power. However, his army did not have such a big appetite at all, why did he do so.

greedy?

Pang Xi sighed softly, turned around and walked down the city. At this moment, the rumbling drums suddenly sounded outside the city, "Dong!Dong!Dong!" The shouts of killing shocked the sky, Pang Xi hurried back to the city wall,

An army of thousands of people was swarming towards Wucheng in black, with flags waving and spectacular.

Pang Xi quickly turned around and shouted: "I sound the alarm bell, the whole army will go to the city to defend!"

The alarm bell of Wucheng sounded, and the rapid bell echoed in the city. Teams of fully armed soldiers rushed to the top of the city with murderous intent. In just a moment, two thousand five hundred soldiers took their place, putting bows and crossbows, and waiting for the battle.

At this time, thousands of enemy troops had already reached the city, lined up two hundred steps away from the city wall. The helmets and armor were bright, the swords and spears were like forests, and a big flag in the middle was fluttering. The flag was flying and the dragon and phoenix were flying. The big one was written on the flag.

The word "Yan" is under the banner. A veteran general about 60 years old rode on a majestic war horse with a mountain knife in his hand. His white beard was floating on his chest and majestic. It was the veteran Yan Yan.

He urged him to step forward and point at the top of the city and shouted: "The rioter Pang Xi, leave the city and die quickly!"

His voice was loud and loud like a bell. The soldiers on the city wall could hear it clearly. Pang Xi was so angry that his face turned blue and shouted, "Show me an arrow!"

The arrows suddenly fell like rain on the top of the city, shooting directly at Yan Yan. Yan Yan is known as the southern sword of Bashu. His martial arts are second only to the northern gun Zhang Ren in Bashu. He used a big knife to dial the arrows. The wind and rain were not clear, and he slowly retreated with his legs.

It quickly withdrew from the crossbow range.

He shouted again: "Pang Xi, you coward who has no courage, I am not afraid of death at the age of 60. Do you dare to fight to the death with me!"

Pang Xi ignored the city, and Yan Yan turned around and shouted, "Come on!"

Dozens of soldiers came forward with puppets. The puppets were about one tall, looking like a man, but were wearing women's dresses. The words "Pang Xi" were written on the big sign on their heads. Yan Yan's soldiers laughed.

Hundreds of people built wooden platforms in front of the city walls, and more than a dozen witches and witches performed witch operas on the stage. One of them dressed in Yan Yan, stood on the stage with a big knife in his hand, and another middle-aged man was wearing a woman's dress.

, knelt down in front of Yan Yan, and begged for mercy, with a very ugly look on the big banner on the stage saying 'Pang Xi begged for mercy'.

Amid the sound of gongs and drums, the witch opera was performed wonderfully. Sometimes, a monkey dressed up as Pang Xi to perform monkey opera, and sometimes, Pang Xi wrestled naked sumo, which attracted bursts of laughter and scolding from the soldiers.

Pang Xi was so angry that he trembled all over. He knew that it was Yan Yan's aggressive plan, but this great shame made him unable to help but yell, "Get out of the city with me and kill these dog thieves!"

Deng Zhi next to him was so scared that he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "You can't be fooled, we will be defeated when we leave the city!"

Pang Xi stomped his feet hard, turned around and walked down the city...

Yan Yan performed under the city for a day, and was extremely humiliating. Pang Xi was so angry that his eyes were spitting out of fire. He wanted to go out of the city to fight several times, but Deng Zhi tried to persuade him. As night fell, Yan Yan's army challenged him ineffectively. Finally,

Withdrew to the military camp at the foot of the mountain.

In the night, veteran Huang Zhong led an army of 20,000 and was marching rapidly along the Shu Road towards Wucheng. The army of 20,000 was like a long snake, stretching ten miles on the mountain road. Due to Pang Xi's failure on the front line, Xinling County and Zigui County were both

Without the garrison, all were transferred to Wucheng County. Huang Zhong's army successfully passed by and walked quickly. He arrived at Wucheng five miles ahead.

At this time, another Sima Liao Hua urged him to step forward and bow and said, "Old General, take the lead, go and give Pang Xi an order to open the city to welcome the army!"

Huang Zhong shook his head, "Pang Xi is a veteran of Bashu, with a high status and a proud nature. If you go to make him go out of the city to greet him, it will make him dissatisfied. Maybe something will happen. Why not go see him directly and give him a face

.”

Jiang Wan, the army officer next to him, smiled and said, "The veteran general is indeed well versed in the world!"

Liao Hua bowed and said, "I understand the humble position."

Huang Zhong immediately ordered: "The whole army speeds up!"

The team accelerated, and soon the forward arrived at Wucheng. Huang Zhong looked at the steep city and ordered the soldiers: "Go and call the door!"

The soldiers ran to the city and shouted loudly: "Listen to the city, General Huang led the Jingzhou army to arriving, so open the door quickly in the city!"

The defenders on the city had already noticed a large army coming, so they rushed to report to Pang Xi. Pang Xi hurried to the east city and looked down at the city. In the darkness, they only saw the torches like a long dragon, and they could not see at first sight. At least there were a few

Ten thousand troops made Pang Xi secretly shocked, but the arrival of Jingzhou Army made him feel relieved. At this time, he saw more than a dozen generals riding horses coming forward and asked loudly: "I am Pang Xi, please ask."

Who is the general under the city?"

A loud laughter came from the city, "Pang Gong, I am Huang Hansheng!"

Pang Xi has been dealing with Jingzhou for many years, and of course he knows Huang Zhong. He knows that Huang Zhong was a veteran of Jingzhou back then and is now the highest-ranking general in Jingzhou. He dared not neglect and quickly ordered: "Keep the city!"

The gate of Wucheng slowly opened, Pang Xi personally welcomed it, followed Deng Zhi and other important subordinates. Huang Zhong turned over and dismounted, and greeted him and smiled: "I heard that Pang Gongzheng fought with Yan Yan's army. I am the order of the governor of the state.

, come and help the battle!"

Pang Xi was overjoyed, stepped forward and bowed, and asked quickly, "Why are the old general, is Liu Zhou Mu coming?"

Huang Zhong pointed to the distant river and smiled, "At the latest day after tomorrow, Mr. Pang can see the main army of Jingzhou on the river."

Pang Xi sighed softly, "This day has finally come!"

At this time, Deng Zhi stepped forward and whispered: "Empress, Yan Yan will definitely come to challenge tomorrow. We might as well follow the plan."

Pang Xi suddenly woke up and hurriedly said to Huang Zhong: "Old thief Yan Yan comes to the city to challenge every day. I am suffering from insufficient troops and cannot respond. With the old general here, we can kill him tomorrow and catch him off guard!"

Huang Zhong laughed, "I heard that Yan Yan's sword is not old for a long time, so I want to take a look. Whose sword is more experienced?"

...........

The next morning, the drum sounded again, and Yan Yan led more than 2,000 people to the front of the pass and shouted loudly. At this moment, the gate of Wucheng opened wide, and an army of more than 1,000 people broke out from the city, headed

A veteran, with a magnificent figure, fluttering white beard, holding a golden-backed tiger-toothed knife in his hand, riding on a majestic white horse, like a tiger and leopard leaving the city.

Of course Yan Yan knew Huang Zhong, and he was shocked. Huang Zhong actually appeared in Wucheng, which means that the army in Jingzhou is coming. He changed his mind and knew that his method of dealing with Pang Xi was not good enough. He was about to transfer his horse away.

When he retreated, Huang Zhong shouted: "General Yan, do you dare to fight me?"

Yan Yan knew that Huang Zhong was the first strong general in Jingzhou in the past, and now he had one more Zhao Yun, so he ranked second in the five tiger generals in Jingzhou. Perhaps because of his own veterans, Yan Yan suddenly developed a sense of competitive spirit and waved his sword.

"I'd like to fight the old general!"

He urged the war horse, and the war horse ran like thunder, rushed towards Huang Zhong. A cold light flashed by, and the mountain knife slashed Huang Zhong's chest with a fierce momentum, but Huang Zhong was not in a hurry, and the golden back tiger-tooth knife slashed towards him.

Listen to the loud noise, like a thunderclap on the ground, two big swords slashed in one place, and fire was splashing everywhere, and two powerful forces fought back at the same time.

The war horse retreated, Huang Zhong felt his arms were sore and numb, and the strong sword energy almost made him breathless. He secretly praised in his heart, saying that he deserved to be known as the Bashu Nan sword, and indeed he was well-known, and Yan Yan was even more miserable.

He had almost no sense of his arms, and the knife in his hand almost came out of his hand, his blood tumbling, and his chest was extremely uncomfortable. He suddenly turned around and vomited a mouthful of blood.

Huang Zhong refused to forgive him and shouted loudly, "Take me another knife!"

The war horse rushed up, raised its sword and slashed. Yan Yan had to force himself to fight and faced the battle. The two fought fiercely. At this time, the army in the city began to surge out in large numbers, from the first thousand people to five thousand people.

They were all the eagle helmets of the Jingzhou Army. Under the leadership of Deputy General Liao Hua, they were full of murderous aura and waited for a command to kill the enemy.

Yan Yan and Huang Zhong have fought fiercely for twenty rounds. Although Yan Yan's sword skills are so good, he is obviously inferior to Huang Zhong's strength, and gradually he can't resist. He found a flaw and cut Huang Zhong's face.

With one knife, Huang Zhong waved his sword to the point. Yan Yan seized the opportunity of this moment, fled and ran away, and shouted to the soldiers: "Retreat immediately!"

Huang Zhong put away his knife, placing an arrow, aimed at Yan Yan's back neck. Yan Yan had no defense, and the arrow must have shot through his neck. However, Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment, but relaxed the bowstring. For some reason, he actually felt

He developed a sense of mutual appreciation and gave up this arrow.

When Huang Zhong saw the enemy defeated and fled, he shouted: "The whole army chased and killed!"

"Kill!"

The Jingzhou army shouted and killed him like thunder, and rushed to the Yizhou army camp at the foot of the mountain. Yan Yan had originally ambushed three thousand enemy troops at the foot of the mountain and was preparing to ambush Pang Xi, but the Jingzhou army came, causing his ambush to lose its effect.

The Yizhou army could not withstand the impact of the Jingzhou army and fled in great defeat. Huang Zhong led his army to chase and kill, killing and surrendering countless people.

In this battle, Yan Yan's five thousand troops were defeated, more than 1,000 people were killed, and 3,000 were captured. Only more than 800 people were left following Yan Yan and fled back to Badong County in a panic.

Huang Zhong immediately withdrew his troops. He did not rush to attack, but asked the army to rest in Wucheng for two days. The marching along the way made the soldiers very tired. He knew that the soldiers' physical strength and morale were the key to the war. Two days later, the Jingzhou Army
Chapter completed!
