Chapter 975

Chapter 975 Feeling confident

So Han De mounted his horse, raised his mountain-breaking ax, and attacked Zhao Yun directly. Zhao Yun came to fight with his spear. The two fought for less than three rounds. In the direction of Zhao Yun's spear, Han De had already been stabbed into the heart and died.

Get off the horse,

After beheading Han De, Zhao Yun quickly turned his horse's head and killed in the direction of Xia Houmao. After all, he was a child and had never seen this scene. In addition, Zhao Yun's martial arts skills were beyond his expectation, so he looked very panicked.

, hurriedly hid among the soldiers. When Deng Zhi saw this, he quickly drove his troops and horses to cover them up. The Wei army was defeated and had to retreat ten miles to the stronghold. Xiahou Mao summoned all the generals to discuss it overnight and said: "I heard

Zhao Yun has been famous for a long time. I have never seen this person before. Although I am older now and my martial arts skills are still there, I now believe what happened in Dangyang Changbanqiao back then. This person is simply invincible. What should I do?

"

Cheng Wu, who joined the army, was the son of the counselor Cheng Yu, and said: "I predict that Zhao Yun is brave and has no plans, so there is nothing to worry about. When the governor goes out with his troops and horses tomorrow, he will first lead two groups of troops to ambush on the left and right. The governor will go first."

Pretend to retreat and lure Zhao Yun to the place of ambush. The governor will then climb the mountain to command the troops and horses on all sides to surround him. Then Zhao Yun can be captured."

Xiahou Mao followed this suggestion and sent Dong Xi with 30,000 troops to ambush on the left, and Xue with 30,000 troops to ambush on the right and set off first.

On the second day, Xia Houmao reorganized his troops and came for the decisive battle, leading his sergeants forward. Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi came out to fight. Deng Zhi said to Zhao Yun on his horse: "The Wei army was defeated last night and left again today. It must be...

If you want to cheat, the old general still needs to be careful."

Zhao Yun laughed and said: "Such a young boy, what should I be wary of? I will capture him alive today!" So he rode out, and the Wei army came out to fight Pan Sui. After fighting for less than three rounds, they went back.

Escaped, Zhao Yun hurriedly chased

Hurrying, eight generals from the Wei army came out to fight. They let Xiahou Mao retreat first, and the eight generals also retreated one after another. Zhao Yun took advantage of the situation to pursue him. Deng Zhi continued to advance with his troops. Zhao Yun went deep into the heavy ground, only to hear loud shouts from all sides.

Shocked, only then did I know

The road was ambushed, Deng Zhi quickly moved his troops back, with Dong Xi on the left and Xue Ze on the right. The two groups of troops who had completed the ambush attacked together. Deng Zhi did not have many troops and could not rescue Zhao Yun, so Zhao Yun was trapped in the center.

, fighting in the east and west, but the number of Wei troops increased,

At that time, Zhao Yun had less than a thousand men, and when they reached the bottom of the hillside, they only saw Xiahou Mao commanding the troops on the mountain. Zhao Yun went east, so he commanded the troops to go east, and when he went west, he commanded the troops to go west, so Zhao Yun had no way to break out.

, so he led his troops and horses to fight to the mountain.

In the middle of the mountain, the hammers and cannons were knocked down, and there was no way to go up the mountain. Zhao Yun fought from Chenshi to Youshi, but still couldn't break out. He could only find a relatively safe position, dismounted and rest first. After all, he was old and his physical strength was not good.

It can't be used up, so prepare to fight again tomorrow.

Just as he took off his armor and prepared to fight, the moonlight came out a little. Suddenly, there were fires in the sky, drums beat loudly, and bows and arrows shot out like rain. When the Wei army arrived, they all shouted: "Zhao Yun, come out and surrender!"

Zhao Yun had no choice but to mount his horse again and fight. He was surrounded by Wei troops on all sides, and the bows and arrows were getting closer and closer. The men and horses could not move forward. At the critical moment, Zhao Yunyang sighed and said: "I refuse to accept old age, and I have no choice but to die here."

"

Suddenly there was a loud shout from the northeast corner, and the Wei troops ran around. A group of Shu troops came to kill them. The leader used an eight-foot-long steel spear, and a human head was hung on the horse's neck. Zhao Yun came to see that it was Zhang Zhang.

Bao, Zhang Bao saw Zhao Yun and said

: "The Prime Minister was afraid that the old general would be in danger, so he specially sent me with five thousand soldiers and horses to meet him. I heard that the old general was trapped, so he led his troops and horses to fight in. I happened to be blocked by Wei general Xue Ze.

So he beheaded him."

Zhao Yun was very happy. He joined forces with Zhang Bao and headed toward the northwest corner. He happened to see the Wei army abandon their weapons and flee in all directions. A group of Shu soldiers came in from outside shouting to kill. The leader was holding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.

There was a human head in it.

Zhao Yun looked from a distance and saw that the man was Guan Xing. Guan Xing paid his respects and said: "I followed the Prime Minister's order and was afraid that the old general would be in danger, so I brought five thousand soldiers and horses to meet him, but I met the general of the Wei army.

Dong Xi was killed by me with one sword and his head was chopped off here. The prime minister said he would be here soon."

Zhao Yun was very happy and said: "The two generals have accomplished extraordinary feats. Why don't we take this opportunity to capture Xiahou Mao alive and decide the important matter?"

After Zhang Bao heard this, he went with his soldiers and horses. Guan Xing said: "I can't fall behind!" So he went with his soldiers and horses.

Zhao Yun turned around and said to his left and right: "Both of them are my nephews, and they are so active in competing for credit. As a general of the country and an important minister of the court, I am not as good as these two boys? I should give up my old life and go to

Repay Emperor Xian for his kindness!" So he also took the remaining troops and horses to capture Xiahou Mao alive.

So three groups of soldiers and horses attacked, and the Wei army was severely defeated. Deng Zhi led his soldiers and horses to respond, killing corpses all over the field, and blood flowed into rivers. Xia Houmao had never seen such a scene before, and he had no idea. In addition, he was too young and had no idea.

After going to the battlefield and seeing the chaos of the Wei army, he quickly took the hundreds of warriors around him and retreated to Nan'an County. Everyone fled because there was no one to lead them.

Zhang Bao and Guan Xing heard that Xia Houmao had fled to the south, and pursued him all night. When he entered the city, he ordered people to close the city gate tightly and sent troops to defend it. The two rushed to surround the city. Zhao Yun also arrived soon after.

, attacked from three sides, and soon Deng Zhi came and joined the battle, and surrounded the city for ten days, but still could not defeat it.

Suddenly soldiers came to report that Prime Minister Kong Ming had left his rear army to guard Mianyang. The left army was stationed at Yangping and the right army was stationed at Shicheng.

After hearing this, Kong Ming took a four-wheeled vehicle to check the situation. He returned to the camp and held a meeting. Everyone stood around to listen to the order.

Kong Ming said slowly: "This place has strong defenses and is not easy to capture, but our target is not here. You surround this place and keep attacking. If the Wei army divides its troops to attack Hanzhong, then we will be in danger."

Deng Zhi said: "Xia Houmao is the consort of the Wei army. If we capture this person alive, it is better than killing hundreds of generals. Now that we are trapped here, how can we abandon him casually?"

Kong Ming smiled and said: "Of course I have my own ideas. It is connected to Tianshui in the west and Anding in the north. I wonder where the governors of these two places are from?"

A scout came to report: "Ma Zun, the prefect of Tianshui, and Cui Liang, the prefect of Anding."

Kongming was very happy after hearing this. It seemed that the work of detecting horses was at the front. He quickly called Wei Yan to explain the strategy. He also called Zhang Bao and Guan Xing to listen to the strategy, as well as two close sergeants. Everyone took the trick and left.

After leaving with his troops and horses, Kong Ming was outside Nan'an City and ordered his soldiers to transport firewood to the bottom of the city, claiming to burn the city. Wei Jun heard about it and thought it was very funny, but felt emboldened.
