In the evening, Yan Liang's army and horses slipped away for a day, and were trapped in the crowd and finally couldn't move. Yan Liang had no choice but to order the army to set up a warning, bury the pot and cook for a while, and have a rest.
The smoke of cooking fires floated into the sky, and the soldiers who had retreated for a day were all chewing dry food to fill their stomachs. Yan Liang saw it and was even more angry. The quality of these barbarians was too poor, and they were not as good as their former soldiers.
Is there any comparison? Isn’t it just a small defeat? Look at that bear! I really don’t know how Lu Bu trained.
In fact, Yan Liang was also so angry that he was a little wronged. These Xiongnu soldiers had only been in the army for more than half a year under the conscript of Lu Bu. They didn't even go through regular military academy training, but they were simply sent by some grassroots officers.
After training for a while, there was no problem in fighting with the fierceness of the Huns, but when they retreated, they still hoped that they could be like the elite soldiers of Youzhou. It would be really hard for these new recruits to be the ones.
However, just as Yan Liang was cursing in secret, the sound of ox horns was everywhere, and rockets all over the sky came. Yan Liang, a temporary camp that had not even been established in the village, was immediately ignited. Although the moisture in this season of spring was relatively high, the fire was set on fire.
It is impossible for a mountain, and the fire does not spread very hard. But the real thick smoke still spreads as the fire ignites.
Yan Liang's troops were defeated and their morale was relatively low. If they encountered the enemy's real battle, the blood and toughness of the Huns in their lives might be able to fight for a while, and even aroused the ruthless courage of Yan Liang's soldiers and turned defeat into victory.
However, now that there is no enemy, only the raid of fire, the blow to Yan Liang's soldiers is too great.
The Hun army, which had just formed an army, had already begun a hasty retreat without waiting for Yan Liang's orders, leaving only a large amount of supplies and horses.
Yan Liang led his troops to retreat overnight. He ran forty miles in one breath. The sky was bright and he stopped. Yan Liang checked the troops again. It was pitiful. The 50,000 powerful cavalry were only more than 30,000 left.
The man was alone, but only 15,600 horses were retained. Yan Liang was even more angry. He was defeated twice and did not officially fight with the enemy. Yan Liang was furious. This was a great humiliation!
Yan Liang was determined to counterattack, but Yan Liang, who had been through the battle formation for a long time, also realized that his cavalry was really difficult to play his advantage in the mountains. Moreover, the opponent was obviously prepared, and set up an ambush and attacked again. Except for damage, there would be no more results.
.At this moment, Yan Liang suppressed his anger and asked his soldiers to rest for a while, he withdrew from Qishan Mountain, set up a camp outside the Qishan Pass, and waited for the arrival of Guan Yu's main force before making plans.
After Guan Yu's army arrived, he was furious when he heard Yan Liang's apology. Guan Yu immediately ordered to attack Qishan again.
Huang Yueying immediately dissuaded: "General Guan. The mountain roads of Qishan are rugged. Our army is mostly cavalry, which is not conducive to attacks between the mountains. We should advance steadily. We also sent infantry troops to occupy the mountains on both sides one by one, and give full play to our army's advantages of numerous troops.
Worry. Moreover, our army also has General Zhang leading troops to attack Hanzhong from Ziwu Valley. Now our army's main force has just attracted all the attention of the other party and can succeed. When General Zhang goes deep into the enemy's mainland and the enemy's morale is shaken,
If you attack with a bold move, you should be able to defeat it in one go."
Guan Yu thought for a while: It's true. Although he was well-known in his army and had excellent riding skills and could walk a steep mountain road, it was just an ordinary earthen mountain. From the Qishan mountain road, Yan Liang reported that there was a stone mountain.
No matter how good a horse is, it is still a scheming move. With the third brother, this is a more secure move and the chance of winning is greater.
Guan Yu immediately picked up Huang Yueying's suggestion and moved forward steadily, moving twenty miles a day, opening mountains and breaking roads, covering the joint venture passages, occupying the mountains on both sides, and advancing steadily.
Although Zhuge Liang could explore the movements of Guan Yu's army from afar, he was helpless about it. Zhuge Liang has always been safe and extremely cautious. Now Zhuge Liang's troops are the coalition forces that have just been integrated, and Zhuge Liang dared not be strong with the army and horses of Youzhou.
If you lose this, the coalition forces will fight a little less. Once they fail, their morale will drop faster. If you finally defeat this great situation, you will lose them all.
Zhuge Liang could only strengthen the exterior walls of the camp more carefully and stockpile more rolling wood and stones on the mountains on both sides. Make sufficient defense preparations. At the same time, he once again urged Sun Quan to quickly lead troops to support him. Although Zhuge Liang had already entered Shuzhong
At that time, Sun Quan had already asked people to send him to receive support. But now he is officially an enemy of Liu Ming. Of course, Sun Quan's reinforcements can reach one minute earlier, which is better than ten thousand minutes.
Day after day, Guan Yu's army finally arrived near the entrance of Qishan Mountain and met Zhuge Liang's camp. The steady progress of Guan Yu's army finally saw extraordinary results. The rugged Qishan Mountain Road was stunned
The gravel on the mountain road was cleared and a simple earth road was formed. Although it was still impossible to allow the army of 200,000 to pass quickly, individual cavalry could already jog on the earth road mountain.
Guan Yu smiled with his beard and finally had the results of his hard work over the past few days, and he was relieved. However, Guan Yu couldn't help but sigh. This unplanned war was not so easy, and it required a planned battle.
With the followers of the logistics team and the road construction team, wherever the battle goes, the road goes. How comfortable it is, and how much trouble it saves.
Guan Yu shook his head and drove out this reverie. He then sent Zhang Lu to seek comfort and ordered Yan Liang to follow Zhang Lu to challenge the enemy.
Yan Liang had already been angry these days, and got the order. As Zhang Lu arrived in front of the formation, he immediately rode out impatiently, lifted his sword and scolded: "Ha! Listen to the rats inside, Zhang, General Zhang, your town south, is the one who is in the south.
Lord, I have already surrendered to my Grand Marshal. Now Lord Zhang is here, so you can’t surrender quickly. When will you wait!"
Zhang Lu immediately raised his head and shouted, "Wuliang Tianzun! I am the general of the Central Army of the South, and Zhang Lu, the prefect of Hanning, is it! Which general is stationed here? Why don't you come out to see me quickly!"
The voices of Zhang Lu and Yan Liang were like dragons and tigers roaring, echoing in the valley and spreading far away. Zhuge Liang was in the camp and could understand it. Zhuge Liang immediately sent an order to open the camp gate and meet Zhang Lu.
On the other hand, no matter what, if you lose, you can't let Youzhou and others have the upper hand in theory, and you can't let yourself become an unrighteous army. Otherwise, your own soldiers would be even less energetic.
It's right.
The gate of Zhuge Liang camp opened wide, and ten thousand soldiers and horses surged out. Although the number was not large, under this special terrain, the narrow valley was blocked tightly, facing Guan Yu's army and horses.
Zhuge Liang sat in his invincible wheelchair, gently waved his feather fan and pushed it out by the military soldiers. This strange appearance really made Yan Liang stunned. Why did the other party come out and make people push it in this war? Yan Liang The anger that has happened over the days has immediately reduced this compassion a little.
Zhuge Liang sat in a wheelchair and clasped his fists, saying loudly: "The mountain man Zhuge Liang lived here occasionally, who is disturbing the leisure time here?"
The name of a person and the shadow of a tree. As soon as Zhuge Liang signed up, everyone in Youzhou who had long heard of Zhuge Liang's name was shocked. Is this Zhuge Liang? This is the Zhuge Liang, who is known as the nemesis of the Grand Marshal?
Even with the strict military discipline of Youzhou's military horses, many whispers suddenly appeared. Yan Liang not only turned his eyes to Zhang Lu, but also asked in a low voice: "Mr. Zhang, when will Zhuge Liang run to you What are you under your charge?”
Why is Zhang Lu also wondering when Zhuge Liang appeared in his subordinates?
Zhang Lu said to Yan Liang in confusion: "General Yan, I don't have this person under my command, and I don't know where he came from. However, we are going to Hanzhong to say that this person is surrendered to the superior."
Yan Liang nodded. Zhang Lu shouted to Zhuge Liang: "Wuliang Tianzun. I was ordered by the emperor to command the land of Hanzhong. Now the Taiwei Lord is kind and loves all directions. I have followed the heavenly orders and sent it to the Hanzhong to the Taiwei Lord. It is a good messenger. I, the military and civilians of Hanzhong, enjoy peace. No matter who you are, you will be in my territory. You will be led by me. Quickly give up your debut. If you wait for the mission, you will benefit yourself!"
Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and smiled, "You thief, you dare to talk in front of the mountain man and confuse the crowd. Do you think the mountain man doesn't know your origin? Your thief has been fake since your ancestor Zhang Ling. Being a Taoist book confusing people. You are in line with your father and son. You continue to confusing people. People in the world call it: Mi Thief. Didn’t you say that?”
Zhang Lu's face turned red and he was speechless. It felt bad to be revealed. What's more, Zhang Lu has been in a high position and has held real power over the years. He has not heard of the title of Mi Thief for many years.
However, although Zhang Lu had nothing to say, Zhuge Liang was not going to let him go. Zhuge Liang still shook his feather fan and said, "As a rice thief, you have cut off your official traits. It was a disaster for the court. In the past, Liu Yan was in the world. It has been reported to the court. Later, your mother was charming and charming, fascinated Lord Liu's heart, forgiven your sins, and accepted you. You should have kept your duty to advance the way of loyalty and righteousness. But Lord Liu Just after you passed away, you rebelled with ambition, respected yourself, and established yourself. Now you are so shameless that you call him the emperor's order. You should be the most shameless person in the world! Now you don't think about it, and you want to exchange the land of the court for Your own interests. Not to mention that you have no right to do this. Even if you are an official appointed by the court, the territory of the court will not be granted by you privately! It can be seen that you are not only shameless, but also ignorant. Yes! If you are so mediocre, how can you live in the world?"
