Chapter 313 Liu Bei shows his power and Qingzhous power expands!
Liu Bei calmed down and retreated to Leling City with Wang Yanzhang and other generals to temporarily avoid the sharp edge of Shan Xiongxin's armored army!
Seeing Liu Bei's withdrawal, Shan Xiongxin did not continue the pursuit. He stationed his troops in place and encouraged Meng Jiigong to attack Leling and recapture the fallen cities.
Shan Xiongxin no longer continues to lead the army to help him recapture those fallen cities.
Meng Jiong was anxious but had no choice but to bite the bullet, gather his soldiers and march towards Leling County.
On the way, in order to successfully capture Leling County, Meng Jiigong made extremely good preparations before the war. He ordered his 20,000 soldiers to prepare troops and horses, carry grain, fodder and baggage, and bring ladders, siege hammers, wells and other siege equipment.
Launch an attack on Leling City.
The war spread again,
The siege of Leling County broke out. In the city, Liu Bei led his subordinates Wang Yanzhang, Wang Yanchao, Wang Yantong, Wang Yansheng and other generals to stand at the crenellations of the city wall and kill the bandit soldiers who climbed up!
The siege lasted for two days and one night. The city walls of Leling County were stained red with the blood of soldiers from both sides. Meng Jiigong's soldiers climbed onto the city wall many times, but they were all intercepted and killed by Liu Bei's generals.
The casualties continued to increase, but they still failed to capture the city in front of them. Meng Jiigong was furious, and immediately ordered his subordinates Ma Tong, Shangyi and Meng Kang to command 800 elite troops each from the east gate and north gate, respectively.
Launch an offensive in three places at Ximen, encircle three and release one. We do not seek to completely annihilate Liu Bei, but we seek to recapture the city of Leling!
It has to be said that this method is indeed effective. After sending three powerful generals, Liu Bei, who was defending Leling City, led his soldiers to withdraw from the south gate and retreat toward Yanci County to the west.
Meng Jiigong successfully entered Leling County,
After reorganizing the troops, they forcibly recruited 5,000 strong men from the local area to join the army, and then continued to march in the direction Liu Bei retreated.
In Yanci County,
Liu Bei was very worried. He stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back, looking up at the billowing sand and dust rising from the horizon in the distance, feeling bitter in his heart.
"The thief is still here"
After several battles, Liu Bei's soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted, and their morale and combat effectiveness were no longer as high and strong as before. If this continues, it will be a problem whether they can return to Pingyuan County alive, let alone expand their territory!
Just when Liu Bei was at a loss what to do, his military advisor Zhou Shu came up with the idea of luring the enemy deep into the enemy's territory, climbing up beams and pulling out ladders to deal with Meng Jiigong's persistent bandit army.
What is the method of luring the enemy deep and climbing up the beam to take out the ladder? Zhou Shu said bluntly, Meng Jiigong currently has a large number of troops and high morale. When Liu Bei leads the army to attack his territory, he will kill his brother Meng Xigui and his legitimate son Mengyi, and capture his wife alive.
I have a grudge against Ma Saifei and I will definitely pursue him!
As long as he takes advantage of Meng Jiigong's anger and induces him to lead the pursuit to the border of Pingyuan County, out of the controllable range of Wang Shichong's supporting army Shan Xiongxin's troops, Liu Bei will no longer have to worry about anything else.
Just counterattack directly.
As for what is going up the beam to draw the ladder? Currently, General Zhang Dingbian is on the way to support. Liu Bei, the lord, can write a letter and ask General Zhang to lead the army to Leling County in a detour, and take advantage of the gap between the city's defenders before he leads the army to deploy defenses.
Capturing the city in the form of a blitzkrieg cut off Meng Jiong's retreat, and at the same time blocked the support of Shan Xiongxin and his armored army, creating time and space advantages for Liu Bei to overthrow Meng Jiong!
"Master Military Advisor, this plan is very clever, but Xuande is not as good as it."
Without further ado, Liu Bei immediately arranged for his soldiers to collect supplies in the city, appease the people, and prepare to abandon the city and retreat, exchanging space for space, to make full preparations for the subsequent destruction of Meng Jiigong.
When Meng Jiong led his troops to the city of Yanci, they saw a disheveled female body hanging high on the city gate. This person's identity was undoubtedly Ma Saifei, Meng Jiong's wife!
"Liu Xuande, I will taste your blood, eat your flesh, bruise your bones and scatter your ashes in order to avenge the murder of your wife, son and brother."
That Ma Saifei was good at martial arts and was good at using two embroidered Luan knives and had 24 hidden "magic knives". They were the bargaining chips that Wang Yanzhang managed to capture alive.
As the wife of Meng Jiong, she was arrogant, domineering and arrogant. She took the lives of countless innocent people at her hands. Death is not a pity!
Now that Ma Saifei died on the battlefield, he died a well-deserved death and played his greatest value for Liu Beijun.
Meng Jiigong, who looked like a mad man, was crying with blood and laughter, and he was laughing in anger. He raised his arms and shouted, leading all his soldiers to the direction of Pingyuan County. If Liu Bei was not killed, it would not be enough to vent his resentment.
Meng Jiigong led his troops to rush to Pingyuan County in a hurry. Little did he know that Leling County behind it had been captured by Zhang Dingbian's men, completely cutting off his way to retreat to Shan Xiongxin for help.
When Meng Jiong arrived at the border of Pingyuan County, he saw that Liu Bei, Wang Yanzhang and other generals had already prepared their battles and were ready to fight and defeat the enemy!
"Liu Bei's son, suffer death."
When Meng Jiong saw Liu Bei across from him, he was so excited that he was so angry that his eyes were split. He immediately picked up the weapon hanging on the back of the horse under his crotch, commanded his 30,000 soldiers to form an arrow formation, and attacked Liu Bei's army.
go.
Seeing the bandits of Wu Yangyang coming towards them, Liu Bei, Wang Yanzhang and other generals were not afraid at all. They calmly and calmly dispatched their soldiers to form the Crane Wing Formation, preparing to outflank them on the left and right!
The flying crane spreads its wings and is both offensive and defensive; the general is in the center and surrounded by heavy troops.
Liu Bei is the main general in this formation, sitting in the middle and rear of the formation. He can dispatch the generals to fight against the thieves at any time. The wings on both sides of the formation are in charge of the two tiger generals Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong, with the intention of killing the enemy generals first, and then encircling and annihilating them.
Thief army.
The gunpowder keg of war was instantly ignited. Meng Jiong commanded his troops and penetrated Liu Bei's Crane Wing formation like a sharp knife. He originally thought that Liu Bei could be captured alive in a quick battle, but it backfired. His soldiers fell into Liu Bei's Crane Wing formation.
After forming the formation, it was like stepping into a quagmire, making it difficult to display one's strength, and the casualty rate was instantly increased.
In the battlefield, Ma Tong, a general under Meng Jiigong, was shot in the head by the oncoming Wang Yanzhang and fell off his horse to death!
Shangyi was struck in the back by Wang Yansheng's two-foot-long magic weapon. He fell from his horse and vomited blood and fainted. He was trampled to death by the rebel horse.
Jiang Shanhe and Meng Kang originally wanted to lead the army to join Meng Jiagong, but unexpectedly Liu Bei's army was as powerful as a tiger and did not give them a chance...
The rebel general Jiang Shanhe died in the rebellion, while Meng Kang, the "jade flag pole", was captured alive by Wang Yansheng, tied up with five flowers and escorted to Liu Bei.
As the war came to an end, Liu Bei's army defeated the greater number with a small force. They killed 20,000 men under Meng Jiigong and captured 10,000. They killed 28 of his generals and captured one alive. They won a complete victory.
The leader of the thieves, Meng Jiigong, knew that the situation was over, so he took out the sword from his waist, stood in the middle of the rebel army, and committed suicide!
At this point, Gao Tansheng, the Baiyu King of Qingzhou, and Meng Jiigong, the Song Yi King, fell, and Liu Bei's power expanded to three times its original size.
After cleaning the battlefield and gathering the surrendering troops, Liu Bei personally recruited the defeated general "Jade Banner Gang" Meng Kang and Meng Jiigong's military advisor Bai Shun to join his command.
"Ding! Liu Bei of Qingzhou destroyed two countries in a row, killed Baiyu Wang Gao Tansheng and Song Yi Wang Meng Jiigong, triggering the system's random balancing mechanism..."
The cold mechanical sound of the system sounded again, which made Yuan Shu, who was still rushing to rescue Yuzhou, frown. It had only been a few days since the balance was triggered by the last destruction of the Southern Kingdom? Is the system turning on balance again? What kind of crap!
