Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun led an army of 80,000 people starting from Feiru. They had to cross Youbeiping County before they could reach Wuzhong City. From Feiru to Wuzhong City, they had to march 290 miles. There were mostly deserted areas along the way.
There are only two cities in Lingzhi and Xu.
Moreover, in these two cities, due to the long-term plundering by the rebels, there was basically not much food in the city. Therefore, when Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun set out from Feiru this time, they brought half of the food and grass in Feiru.
There is enough food and grass to feed these 80,000 people for half a month.
Although Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun had an army of 80,000, 50,000 of them were logistics soldiers responsible for escorting grain and grass. Of the remaining 30,000 troops, Zhang Chun led 10,000 as the vanguard, and Zhang Ju led 20,000, following closely behind.
When Zhang Chun and Zhang Yao saw Liu Bei's troops fleeing in disarray, they all thought that this was a great opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Moreover, after passing Shimenkou, there was Wuending City. If they could follow this group of defeated troops, they might be able to
I can capture Wu End City in one fell swoop.
Zhang Yao was even more active at this time. After all, Wu End City was lost in his hands, and he lost it without any resistance. Because of this incident, after Zhang Yao returned, those who usually disliked him reacted
The thief general spoke ill of him even more brazenly.
Therefore, Zhang Yao particularly wanted to take over Wu Ending City himself so that he could feel proud in front of everyone. But now, Zhang Yao thought that this was the best opportunity to capture Wu Ending City.
There are steep mountain walls on both sides of Shimenkou. After passing Shimenkou, you can see Wu End City.
When Zhang Chun and Zhang Yao led their troops through the stone gate and saw the officers and soldiers fleeing in embarrassment in front of them, as well as Wu End City, they all felt excited.
"Kill, kill." Zhang Yao shouted several times.
Zhang Yao used the leather whip in his hand to whip the war horse several times under his crotch. The horse's speed was obviously much faster.
Ahead were the officers and soldiers who had used treacherous tactics to capture Wu Ending City a few days ago. Zhang Yao seemed to have seen the scene where he had killed countless officers and soldiers and entered Wu Ending City.
"Line up to meet the enemy."
Zhang Yao heard the shouting of the officers and soldiers in front, which was a little strange. You were obviously running away in a panic, making up what kind of formation you were facing and what kind of enemy you were facing.
Zhang Yao simply did not believe that these officers and soldiers could still line up to face the enemy at this time, thinking that this was just a trick by the fleeing officers and soldiers in front.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yao suddenly saw an officer and soldier who had been walking at the end, turned around and faced Zhang Yao.
Zhang Yao saw this man holding a big sword in his hand, with a face the color of a jujube, and a very tall and powerful body. Before he could understand what was going on, he saw a cold light flashing in front of his eyes.
Then Zhang Yao felt a chill on his neck.
Bang!
Zhang Yao could still feel that his head had fallen to the ground, and he blinked a few times. Seeing the body still on the horse in front of him, he seemed to suddenly understand something, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and slowly narrowed his eyes.
.
After Liu Bei shouted "Line up to meet the enemy" with great momentum, nearly five hundred soldiers reined in their horses, turned around, and once again charged towards the oncoming rebels.
In this way, Zhang Yao gloriously became a member of Guan Yu's sword. If Zhang Yao knew that the person who killed him was Guan Yu, he would probably be happy!
"kill!"
Liu Bei shouted, and then took the lead in killing the astonished rebels in front of him.
At the same time, on both sides of Shimenkou, Gongsun Yue also led five thousand infantrymen to fight out.
Chen Meng would never miss an opportunity to beat a drowned dog. Now is an opportunity to beat a drowned dog.
Chen Meng urged his war horse, followed Liu Bei, and also killed the rebels. Chen Meng decided to show off in front of his two younger brothers this time, so that they could see what fighting meant.
.
"Zilong, Guorang, follow your elder brother and I will show you how he kills the enemy." Chen Meng said to the two young men who had not yet bowed.
At this time, many of the extremely astonished rebels had not yet understood what was going on, but they had already become the victims of Liu Bei and others.
Chen Meng was lucky this time. He happened to meet Zhang Chun, the leader of the rebels, on the path of his charge.
Chen Meng didn't know that this person was Zhang Chun. He only knew that this person was one of the two people who had just prepared to lead troops to surround them. However, looking at this person's clothes, Chen Meng was sure that this person must be a high official.
Chen Meng held the plum blossom spear tightly with both hands and clamped the horse's belly with his legs. Looking at Zhang Chun in front of him, he stabbed forward with the plum blossom spear.
After all, Zhang Chun was also the leader of the rebels and had rich combat experience. After seeing Chen Meng's spear stabbing him, he hurriedly raised his long knife to block Chen Meng's spear.
With a "dang" sound, the spear and the long knife collided fiercely. The collision of the two iron products caused a vibration that was transmitted along the spear shaft to Chen Meng's hands and arms. Chen Meng suddenly felt a numbness in his arms.
Two war horses passed by each other. Chen Meng hurriedly controlled the horse to turn around. At this time, Zhang Chun also controlled the horse to turn around.
"What a boy, you have so much strength!"
"Be careful behind you." Chen Meng shouted at Zhang Chun.
Zhang Chun was stunned when he heard this, thinking, didn't this guy want to kill me just now? Why did he suddenly ask me to be careful about what's behind me? He must be trying to distract me so I won't be fooled!
Zhang Chun looked at Chen Meng and was about to speak when he suddenly felt the sound of a spear swinging rapidly through the air behind him. Then he felt as if his back was hit by a huge boulder, and his body suddenly moved forward uncontrollably.
Fall away.
"I'll leave the business to you," Zhao Yun said to Chen Meng as he walked quickly past him.
"Call me big brother."
Chen Meng didn't know if Zhao Yun heard what he said, but Chen Meng knew that his chance to show off in front of Zhao Yun was gone.
Chen Meng looked around and saw Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Liu Bei, and then Tian Yu. Chen Meng decided that when fighting in the future, he would follow these people honestly and show himself in front of these people.
How to kill the enemy? Chen Meng felt like he was a pig with two green onions stuck in its nose.
"When it comes to fighting and killing people, we still have to rely on these ancients."
Chen Meng led his horse to the side of Zhang Chun who was lying on the ground and said:
"I told you to watch your back, why didn't you listen?"
After Zhang Chun heard this, he moved his body as a response to Chen Meng.
After Gongsun Yue led 5,000 infantrymen to join the battle, the slightest numerical advantage that this wave of rebels led by Zhang Chun and Zhang Yao had was gone.
When the rebels face the officers and soldiers, and there is no numerical advantage, what the rebels have to face is to be slaughtered.
There were more than 10,000 rebels. After Liu Bei and Gongsun Yue led their troops to kill them, less than 2,000 people survived. A great victory was about to come.
