Rebirth: I’m Lv Bu
Chapter 598: Battle of Hanzhong (2)
Liu Bei immediately ordered Liao Hua's five thousand soldiers to camp near Ziwu Road to deter possible Qin army reinforcements, and he himself coordinated with Guan Yu and others to command the main force to attack Hanzhong.
In the dark, a large army arrived outside the gate of the Hanzhong East City. Upon seeing this, the officers and soldiers above the city gate immediately became nervous. I saw a general from the army outside the city shouting loudly: "I am the general of King Qin Wei Yan! Open the city gate quickly!" The people above the city gate heard that it was Qin Jun who had arrived, and all of them were happy. A general immediately clasped his fist and said: "I have seen General Wei! Please wait for General Wei, the final general will immediately invite Master Zhang to welcome General!" Wei Yan said.
The general hurriedly said to an officer next to him: "Quickly report to Master Zhang, King Qin's General Wei Yan led his army to arrive!" The officer promised and hurried away.
Before long, Zhang Lu was accompanied by a group of children and cronies to the city gate. Zhang Lu saw that a general of the army outside the city was sitting on horseback waiting. He immediately knew that it was Wei Yan. He couldn't help but was very pleased. He clasped his fists and said, "Under Zhang Lu, I have seen General Wei! I wonder if General Wei is missing at this moment. Welcome, please forgive me!" Wei Yan clasped his fist and said, "Master Zhang does not need to be polite! I'm just waiting for the order of the King of Qin to act! Master Zhang quickly open the city gate!"
Zhang Lu hurriedly said: "General Wei forgive me. Now is the extraordinary time. I still need to confirm the identity of General Wei, and General Wei forgive me!" Wei Yan didn't care, nodded and said, "This is also right. Master Zhang does not need to. I apologize." Then he took out a roll of bamboo slips from Ma'an's bag, held it high, and said in a loud voice: "This is a letter written by King Qin, please check it out." Then he handed the letter to a general next to him. Officer, motioned him to send it over. The officer took the bamboo straight to the wall, and put it into a bamboo basket hanging down from the wall.
The bamboo basket quickly dragged onto the city wall, and an officer took out the bamboo slips and rushed to Zhang Lu, presenting them with both hands. Zhang Lu quickly took the bamboo slip and unfolded it and read it again, and saw that in addition to the content to appease him, it was promised to give him high officials. Zhang Lu was very happy, but to be cautious, he quickly asked Zhang Qiying to take out the autograph letter sent to him by Lu Bu, and carefully compared the two. Seeing that the handwriting on the two letters is exactly the same, even the smallest details are generally the same, I can't help but be completely sure that this is Lü Bu's autograph letter, and Wei Yan outside the city is definitely Wei Yan himself.
Zhang Lu hurriedly hugged Wei Yan and said, "General Wei, forgive me! I will immediately order someone to open the gate of the city!" Then he asked the captain of the city gate to open the gate quickly. The lieutenant of the city gate promised, and the opponents ordered the soldiers. The officers and soldiers immediately raised the door bars and opened the two heavy city gates!
Outside the city, Wei Yan saw the city gate open and immediately led his army into the city gate. At this moment, Zhang Lu had led a group of his men to greet him at the gate of the city. Seeing Wei Yan arrived, he immediately smiled and bowed: "General Wei has worked hard all the way!" Wei Yan rode up to Zhang Lu's face and looked at Zhang. Lu glanced at it and asked: "You are Zhang Lu?" Everyone was taken aback, and Zhang Qiying, who stood behind Zhang Lu, showed an unhappy expression, just thinking that Wei Yan was really too arrogant! Zhang Lu came back to his senses and hurriedly smiled and bowed and said, "Here is Zhang Lu!"
Then Wei Yan suddenly raised his sword and slashed at Zhang Lu! Things started hurriedly and transformed into underarms, Zhang Lu didn't react at all! Zhang Qiying's eyes were quick and fast. Seeing the other side's sword light raised, she subconsciously grabbed her father's back collar and pulled her father back. Almost at the same time, Dadao Hanguang slashed past Zhang Lu and hit a Zhang Lu cron's body. ! Suddenly blood surged, the cron screamed and fell to the ground!
Zhang Qiying shielded her father with a spear, Zhang Lu was shocked and could not help but burst into anger, and shouted sharply: "Wei Yan! What are you doing?"
"Wei Yan" laughed loudly, and said mockingly: "I'm not Wei Yan! I'm Liu Feng, general under the command of General Chaqi!" Zhang Lu and the others were shocked when they heard the words, and immediately understood that they had been fooled. At this moment, Liu Beijun, who had already entered the city, launched a fierce attack on Zhang Lujun. Zhang Lujun was caught off guard and was rushed to pieces by Liu Beijun. Liu Feng pointed at Zhang Lu with a big knife and shouted, "Zhang Lu! Today is your death date!" Immediately, with a wave of the big knife, he slid forward. He swung a knife and slashed a soldier in front of him and rushed towards Zhang Lu. The big sword in his hand was raised high and slashed at Zhang Lu! Zhang Lu took a step back in fright. At this critical moment, Zhang Qiying raised her spear and held the big knife that the opponent had hacked with a loud bang!
Zhang Qiying was hit by this strong force, and the whole person involuntarily retreated backwards, retreating into the arms of her father Zhang Lu before stopping! But Liu Feng couldn't help but stop being blocked by Zhang Qiying. Zhang Qiying sternly shouted: "Block them!" All the soldiers shouted, and rushed up to form a group with Liu Feng and his troops. And Zhang Qiying took advantage of this moment and rushed to the North City Gate with her father.
At this time, Liu Bei's army was already like a city, and Zhang Lujun under Liu Beijun's violent rush and slaying was like dead branches and fallen leaves falling in the wind, unable to organize effective resistance!
...
Ai Lang led Ma Chao, Dian Wei and other generals, led the Eight Thousand Warriors, rode through Wudang and drove westward along the Han River to Hanzhong. However, it didn't take long to get an emergency report from Wei Yan that Wei Yan's army had been ambushed by Liu Bei's army near Ziwu Road and had retreated to Xicheng with heavy losses. Ai Lang was very annoyed, and immediately led his army to drive Xicheng directly.
Soon after, Ailang arrived in West City. After Wei Yan greeted Ai Lang and the others in the hall of the city's internal governance office, he knelt in front of Ai Lang with a thump, and pleaded with shame: "The incompetence of the last general has caused the loss of our army. King Qin will be punished!" Although he was annoyed in his heart, the annoyance was directed at Liu Bei, saying: "I already know the situation of this battle. You are also cautious enough. It is really that Liu Bei **** is too cunning! But defeat is after all defeat. , I will deduct your salary for one year and be demoted to the first class to show punishment! You still retain your original position and commit your crimes." Wei Yan worshipped, "Thank you for the grace of King Qin!" Then he stood up and stood at the bottom of the generals.
Ai Lang asked Wei Yan: "How about our army's losses?" Wei Yan clasped his fist and said: "The loss of 7,000 people and the loss of all the heavy supplies..."
Ma Chao said: "It's pretty good. The ambush like this actually saved most of the army." Wei Yan smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say. He wanted to take this opportunity to show his face among the famous generals of King Qin's army, but he didn't expect his face to show up, but he showed his pi. Although most of the army was saved, it would not be shameful, but after all, this battle was one of the rare defeats of the Qin army in history. It was really shameful.
After a pause, thinking of one thing, he hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "King Qin, our army has suffered heavy losses, and Liu Bei will inevitably take Hanzhong. We have to find a way to support Hanzhong!"
Ma Yunlu said unhappily, "Who doesn't know about this kind of thing? But all the food and everything is lost, and there is no way to move on!" Wei Yan was very annoyed when Ma Chao's sister robbed himself of him, but after all, it was his defeat. With such a result, there is no way to refute the other party.
Ma Chao asked Ai Lang, "Brother, we have enough food and grass to meet the needs of three thousand war riders for three days of fighting. How about letting my younger brother lead three thousand war riders to help Hanzhong first?" Wei Yan said quickly: "I'm afraid it's not. Easy. According to the scout sent by the final commander, Liu Bei left Liao Huashuai with five thousand soldiers to set up a base near the Meridian Road, which has cut off the channel for our army to rescue Hanzhong. Our army must first defeat Liao Hua before going to Hanzhong."
Ma Chao sneered and said, "How can Liao Hua be so true!" Wei Yan was secretly angry, but couldn't say anything.
Ai Lang thought for a while, and felt that it would be good for Ma Chao and the others to play a fight first. Even if they were unable to defeat Liao Hua, it would still involve Liu Bei's attention, which would definitely be beneficial for Zhang Lu to defend Hanzhong. As soon as he thought of this, he said to Ma Chao: "Mengqi, you have three thousand war riders under your command to fight Liaohua! The best you can get down, don’t force yourself when the situation is unfavorable! The main purpose of your offense is to constrain Liu Bei’s attention so that he can Zhang Lu guard Hanzhong!" When Ma Chao heard this, he only felt that his eldest brother looked down on himself a little, smiled, and clasped his fists, saying, "Don't worry, elder brother, my younger brother will never disappoint you!" Then he led the crowd. The younger brother and sister went down.
Ai Lang watched Ma Chao and the others leave, and then asked Wei Yan: "Wei Yan, did you send someone to send a message to Old Xu?" Wei Yan clasped his fist and said, "Return to King Qin, and I will finally send someone to send a message to Master Xu and ask for grain support. Ailang nodded, and muttered thoughtfully: "Now I can only wait for the grain and grass to come up."
Ma Chao led a group of younger brothers and sisters out of the prison, stepped on the horse, and ran straight to the military camp outside the city. Later that day, Ma Chao set up his three thousand war horses and left the barracks to go west, and head straight towards Liao Hua's camp near Ziwu Road. This Ma Chao and his siblings are in a special situation in the Qin Army. Since Ma Chao had previously accepted the official position canonized by the Han Court, and after he joined Ailang, Ailang maintained his official title, so it is very high in terms of official rank, so it is difficult for Ma Chao to arrange to serve under the major legions, so he His younger brothers and sisters belonged directly to the general of King Qin, Ai Lang, who only had personal soldiers in their hands. When they set out, Ai Lang temporarily allocated a part of the army to them. In fact, Ma Chao’s situation is special and not special. The situation of other major army groups is similar. Unless it is the generals who have been awarded by Ailang to conquer the power of defense, such as Zhang Liao, other generals, even the major army groups. The commander in command, such as Xu Huang Zangba, cannot mobilize the army, and must be authorized by Ailang's tiger charm. In this respect, Ma Chao's situation is no different from other generals.
Liao Hua has been paying close attention to the movement in the east after garrisoning the Ziwudao. Soon after, he received an emergency report that the Qin army general Ma Chao led the 3,000 war cavalry. Liao Hua didn't dare to neglect, while ordering his officers and soldiers to prepare for war, he sent people to report to the lord.
