"Stop." Zhuge Liang suddenly tied up his hands and blocked the passage of the large army. Zhuge Liang looked around and wondered: "The mountains and forests along the way are full of birdsong and insects. Why is it so quiet here? ... No, there is an ambush. Retreat." Zhuge Liang looked at it.
The luster reflected from the metal of the mountains and forests on both sides.
After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, before everyone could react, sharp arrows from both sides suddenly shot through the air, and countless arrows were fired at the Di Renjun troops who were opening the way.
Seeing that Wutu Gu had been discovered, he attacked the vanguard before Zhuge Liang's large army arrived. Zhuge Liang hurriedly retreated. At this time, the rumble of horse hooves sounded, and Zhao Yun led 5,000 Dawan cavalry to fight out.
The leading troops who opened the way were shot to pieces, and were scattered by the Dawan army led by Zhao Yun. The Dawan horses fought in the mountains much better than ordinary war horses, and the ancient Xin'an road rushed towards Zhuge Liang as if they were walking on flat ground.
Zhuge Liang didn't know why such a top-secret plan was discovered by the Sichuan army. He didn't have time to think about it and immediately retreated with his troops. Behind him, the Dawan cavalry were chasing after him. The pony horses kept knocking the knights off their horses on the rugged mountain road.
"Boom."
Zhuge Liang led his army just a few hundred meters away when there was a rumbling sound and countless boulders blocked the narrow path in front. Dozens of vine-armored soldiers emerged from the mountains and formed an array behind the boulders.
"Shoot." Zhuge Liang immediately ordered his soldiers to ride and shoot.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh." Countless arrows rained down at the Vine Armor Soldiers. The Di Ren soldiers thought they could be transformed into hedgehogs. After a wave of arrows, they actually stood there alive, with many arrows embedded in the gaps in the Vine Armor.
Hedgehogs are hedgehogs, but none of them died.
The Di soldiers were shocked, and Zhuge Liang immediately exclaimed: "Tengjia Army?"
Zhuge Liang heard about the reputation of the Tengjia Army, but had no specific idea. When the Sichuan Army fought against Liu Bei, because the southern border was initially determined and Dianzhou was still in its infancy, not many barbarians were recruited, so the Tengjia Army did not go to war.
Zhuge Liang only heard about it, and now he has actually seen it for the first time.
When I saw the Tengjia Army for the first time, it turned out to be the most suitable mountainous area for the Tengjia battlefield.
Later, Zhao Yun led the Dawan cavalry to attack the Di soldiers. Zhuge Liang hurriedly ordered the Di soldiers to charge. The Tengjia army bent their bows and nocked arrows, and shot sharp arrows at the Di soldiers.
The Di soldiers were not vine-armored soldiers, and were not even as good as the cloth armor of the Central Plains army. The prairie cavalry were basically unprotected. On the narrow road, dozens of vine-armored soldiers fired arrows without missing a beat and rushed towards the Di people on the pile of rocks.
The soldiers were shot over a large area.
The Di people's cavalry behind them continued to charge, and the Tengjia soldiers continued to fire arrows. Zhuge Liang knew from the sound of horse hooves how powerful the impact of the cavalry led by Zhao Yun was, and he did not dare to resist forcefully, so he could only command the Di people to charge towards the Tengjia soldiers regardless of life or death.
The Di people's cavalry took advantage of the gap in the arrow rain to charge, and finally rushed to the stone pile. However, this was a place where no one could get past. The stone pile reduced the horse power of the Di people's cavalry to the minimum. The Di people's soldiers were not invulnerable vine armor soldiers at all.
The opponent, the Di soldiers who finally showed up, were hacked to death by the Tengjia army with axes.
Later, Zhao Yun's cavalry finally came and killed them. The Dawan Cavalry charged forward without hesitation, and their protective armor was not of the same level. The Di Ren cavalry was no match for the Dawan Cavalry.
Corpses were everywhere wherever Dawan Cavalry passed, and the Tengjia Army followed behind to harvest the fish that slipped through the net.
The war was going on very easily. Zhao Yun rode up to Zhuge Liang and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhuge, do you have anything to say before you die?"
All the Di soldiers had been killed. The five thousand Di cavalry could not block the charge of Dawan Cavalry for one round, and the smell of blood rushed towards Zhuge Liang's door.
Zhuge Liang was left alone on the grass, but he was not worried about his life or death. Instead, he was looking for him among the rattan armor soldiers, white pole soldiers and Dawan cavalry who came out one after another.
"There's no need to look for it. Military Advisor Huang is not here. He asked me to ask you if you have any unfulfilled wishes. I will definitely bring them to the military advisor." Zhao Yun said coldly.
Zhuge Liang's face turned gloomy instantly: "Wish? My wish is to fight you, Yueying, won't you even give me this opportunity? Don't you want to see me even at the last moment?"
Zhuge Liang felt that all his strength was gone and he collapsed on the ground. Zhao Yun waited patiently. After a long time, Zhuge Liang stood up and handed his goose feather fan to Zhao Yun: "General Zhao, give this to your military advisor. If you have
In the next life, I will no longer have any scruples and will only focus on realizing the above wishes with her."
The writing on the goose-feather fan is different from that of Huang Yueying's goose-feather fan given by her master. Huang Yueying's goose-feather fan has one word "Zhang" and one "jade" written on it, while Zhuge Liang's goose-feather fan has many words written on it.
Zhao Yun didn't look at the goose feather fan, he put it away and said to Zhuge Liang: "Are there any more?"
Zhuge Liang was silent.
"Mr. Zhuge, it is not clear why the military advisor did not let you die. Queen Zhelanying is my lord's wife and has been working for our Sichuan army."
"Ah?" Zhuge Liang raised his head in surprise. At this moment, all doubts suddenly became clear. A wisp of blood flew up from his throat. A wise man fell to the ground. Zhao Yun held the bloody silver spear and reined in his horse and left Sang Qianpo.
…
"Do you still remember that year during the yellow flower season, when the moonlight faded away and the prosperity faded away, when the fallen flowers brushed my fingertips, did they also touch your temperature?"
Huang Yueying looked at the writing on the goose feather fan and shed a tear. The four former childhood friends were now beyond recognition. Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang were all gone.
When the Sichuan army forced Xiangyang, Zhuge Liang escaped from the wedding on the day of the wedding because Zhuge Liang and Sima Hui could not let Zhuge Liang fall into Liu Zhang's hands.
At that time, Zhuge Liang also believed that he should leave, join the Ming Dynasty, kill Liu Zhang, revitalize the family, and do a great cause.
So Zhuge Liang ran away from marriage, and this decision also determined Zhuge Liang's future fate.
If it was not a family at the beginning, if Zhuge Liang was just an ordinary talented man, if Zhuge Liang knew how to think about himself like Pang Tong, and did not have such a deep sense of family, the result would not be what it is today.
"If there is a next life, I will no longer have any scruples and will just focus on realizing the above wishes with her."
"He regretted it in the end." Huang Yueying said. Liu Zhang sat aside and remained silent. At this time, he whispered: "If Zhuge Liang had not escaped from the marriage, what would he be like now?"
Liu Zhang thought about it, Huang Yueying would definitely not like him if she married Zhuge Liang late, but then again, would he still like Huang Yueying in such a state of mind?
That would be a completely different ending.
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. This is fate." Huang Yueying said and put away the goose feather fan.
"Zhuge Kongming is a wise man anyway. I will order his ashes to be transported back to Longzhong for burial. I always feel that that place is the most suitable place for him. Yueying, what do you think?"
Huang Yueying nodded, if she was really indifferent to fame and wealth, bold and unrestrained, she would just lie drunk on a high couch in Longzhong, why would there be so many troubles in the world.
Zhuge Liang's final regret was that maybe he really missed the thatched cottage in Longzhong that he burned down with his own hands. If he was given another chance, maybe staying there for the rest of his life was what he wanted most.
Of course, someone still needs to accompany him.
"Thank you, husband." Huang Yueying said softly to Liu Zhang, without calling her "Lord," and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Liu Zhang: "But now is not the time to think about this.
Now that the Di people's matter has been resolved, according to Zhelan, the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Yuan brothers have all sent troops this time, but as long as the Di people's army attacks their rear, these people are not a concern. We are
It’s time to think about how to defeat the enemy in front of you.”
Liu Zhang nodded. Huang Yueying had returned to normal. She took the map of Xiahetao from the side and said to Liu Zhang: "The biggest difficulty in our attack now is that the first is that Jinyang and Hanliang City are at each other's horns, and the second is that Shangdang has 30,000 soldiers."
The army may attack our rear at any time.
However, their strength is not as good as ours. I think we can send 8,000 Dongzhou soldiers to station in Pingyang and 10,000 Xiliang cavalry to gallop outside Shangdang.
In this way, if Shangdang City comes out to attack us, it must first defeat our cavalry. Cao Jun's elite cavalry has been completely destroyed. The current cavalry troops are still no match for the Xiliang cavalry, even if they can evade them.
The cavalry was in full force and 10,000 Dongzhou soldiers were guarding Pingyang. The Shangdang army of 30,000 soldiers could not make waves.
In this way, the threat from the Shangdang is eliminated.
For Jinyang and Hanliang City, it is nothing more than a dichotomy. As long as one corner is destroyed, the other corner will naturally collapse.
I suggest that we now station our troops on the middle line from Jinyang to Hanliang City, build a city close to the river, and build a embankment on the middle line. The infantry will guard the embankment on the west and the cavalry will gallop on the east bank.
As long as there are about 40,000 soldiers and horses, Jinyang's 70,000 troops will never be able to survive, and then if we gather 50,000 troops to attack Hanliang City, Hanliang City will definitely fall."
Liu Zhang nodded. In fact, even Cao Cao and Guo Jia never thought that they could defend the 100,000 Sichuan Army with the troops of Cao Zhang and Wu Jun. The combat power of the two armies was not of the same level, not to mention that Cao Cao's cavalry was no match for the Sichuan Army's cavalry.
An army with such advantages is easy to make military arrangements.
Liu Zhang immediately ordered his people to act according to the order. At this moment, a soldier came in and said: "My lord, I have come from Chang'an to bring you good news from Jiaozhou and the Western Regions."
"read."
"Fan Zhe, the captain of Cangwu County in Jiaozhou, killed Shiyi, the prefect of Cangwu, surrendered to our army, surrounded Shixie's hometown, captured Shixie's whole family, young and old, and executed them all. The seventy-year-old Shixie died of grief and anger on the front line. Jiaozhi
The prefect Shi Wu led his army to overthrow Zhe, but was attacked by General Zhu Rong and was severely defeated.
Shi Xie, Shi Yi, and Shi Wu died one after another. Now Jiaozhou is in chaos. Counties are vying to surrender, and the people are rebelling. The deep-rooted Shi family has been uprooted by the local army and people, and almost everyone with the surname Shi has been killed.
The rest of the aristocratic families were also plundered by the soldiers and civilians of Jiaozhou, and they fled to Luoyue Kingdom and other small countries further south. Cai Ming, the herdsman of Dianzhou, and Zhu Rong, the commander of the border army, are taking over Jiaozhou County."
