Han Shimou

() But Zhang Ren followed Liu Bei's order and led [-] soldiers and horses to drive secretly all the way to Brazil County in the starry night.Zhang Rengang ordered the sergeants to rest. That night a meteor came to report that Xitang was divided into two troops. One was led by Guan Yunchang, the dragon general of Xitang.When Zhang Ren heard the news, he suppressed his panic and dispatched people to various counties in Brazil to transfer all the soldiers and horses back to Guanzhong.Afterwards, Zhang Ren waited for the sergeant to rest for a day, and according to Zhuge Liang's plan, he set up an ambush in a valley called Longpingkou at the border of Brazil.Zhang Ren's ambush has been set, and he is waiting for Tang soldiers.

At the beginning of the night, Zhou Cang led eight thousand soldiers and horses.When Zhou Cang rushed into Longpingkou, the soldiers and horses were halfway through when there was a sudden sound of cannon, and the cannon, rocks and logs fell on the side of the valley.Seeing this, Zhou Cang knew that he had been tricked. He reined in his horse and ordered his troops to withdraw.The Tang soldiers pushed each other like a landslide and the sea collapsed, and retreated out of the valley in a panic.Suddenly, a group of people and horses turned out from the side of the road, and the sound of killing suddenly rose.I saw the leading general, holding a six-foot spear in his hand, with a handsome face, it was Ma Dai.Ma Dai suddenly flew up and led the army straight to the Tang soldiers to charge and kill them.Tang Bing was in a panic. He didn't care about fighting, and they all ran around.Ma Dai chased after him impressively, and rushed into the chaos of Tang soldiers, rushing from left to right, as if entering a land of no one.Tang soldiers fled in all directions, and no one dared to stop them.Ma Dai charged all the way and led his troops to cut off the Tang soldiers.At this moment, Ma Dai heard the wind behind him, turned around suddenly, and saw Zhou Cang raising his sword and galloping his horse to kill him.Ma Dai's expression froze, he rode his horse and started fighting with Zhou Cang, the two fought for dozens of rounds, neither of them could win or lose. . .

Suddenly, there were bursts of shouts of killing everywhere.I saw a number of Tang soldiers rushing to kill all over the mountains and plains.It turned out that Guan Yu heard the shouts of killing in the distance, and personally led a team to rescue first.Seeing this, Ma Dai hurriedly killed Zhou Cang with all his strength, shouted loudly and withdrew his troops, and led them back.Zhou Cang led several hundred followers to chase after him.Guan Yu rode a red rabbit horse and rushed to give chase. Seeing Ma Dai trying to escape, Danfeng stared at him and shouted loudly like thunder. . .

"Shu thief, don't even think about escaping!!"

Guan Yu led his troops to kill, trying to stop Ma Dai.Fortunately, Ma Dai withdrew in time, and Guan Yu hurried all the way, chasing Ma Dai into a dense forest.All of a sudden, flames flashed everywhere, and then there were bursts of violent bowstring sounds.Tang Bing was unprepared and panicked when he saw arrows coming in waves like a rain of fire.The fire spread rapidly in the dense forest, and the Tang soldiers retreated in a panic because of the chaos.Guan Yu couldn't stop drinking, he was in a panic.A group of soldiers and horses came from Linkou, and the leading general was Zhang Ren.Zhang Ren led the army to kill. Tang Bing had just escaped from the fire, and was attacked by enemy soldiers. Wherever he could resist, he was killed and scattered soon.Guan Yu rushed out in a rage, and seeing Zhang Ren, Danfeng's eyes full of anger shot two lights, and immediately rushed towards Zhang Ren.Zhang Ren felt his heart skip a beat, and then he heard screams from the left side, watching Guan Yu wielding his sword and galloping his horse, cutting a bloody path towards him.Zhang Ren knew that he was not Guan Yu's opponent, so he withdrew quickly and ordered the crossbowmen to shoot.Guan Yu shouted loudly, swiped his saber and slashed swiftly, pushing aside the rain of arrows to kill.At this time, Zhang Ren did not appear to be flustered. With an order, two long spearmen rushed out in unison, and rushed to Guan Yu with red rabbit spurs.Today's Chituma is no longer what it used to be, Guan Yu was afraid that Chitu would lose something, so he hurriedly reined in his horse and stopped, the Qinglong Yanyue knife flew up and danced, the shadow of the knife was so fast that it couldn't see through, and a bloody light flew up, killing Qi Ba in an instant personal.Zhang Ren saw it eagerly, and quickly took the bow in his hand, aimed at Guan Yu's face, and shot it as soon as he saw it.Xian sent an arrow, Guan Yu heard the sound of the arrow, and subconsciously turned around to avoid it, and the arrow flew past.At the same time, Zhang Ren ordered the crossbowmen to prepare to shoot arrows.Guan Yu was furious and broke out suddenly, and the red rabbit horse rushed up. Before the Shu soldier's spearman could react at all, he felt a hurricane blowing, and then saw the cold light flying in front of his eyes.Guan Yu's horse flew a knife suddenly, breaking a bloody path, and the Shu soldiers' crossbowmen didn't react, and saw Guan Yu kill Zhang Ren's horse.Zhang Ren was terrified when he saw it, and hurriedly drew his gun and stabbed Guan Yu's throat, wanting to strike first.Guan Yu swung his saber violently, swung Zhang Ren's gun away, and slashed sharply with his saber.Zhang Ren hurriedly dodged, and then shot out with a false stab.Unexpectedly, Guan Yu ran away, Zhang Ren took the opportunity to escape, but he was also cunning and retreated into the crowd.Seeing Guan Yu, he was about to rush to kill.Zhang Ren drank, and Shu soldiers came from all directions.Zhang Ren's eyes were full of coldness, and he shouted desperately.

"If Guan Yunchang can be killed, the king of Shu will definitely reward him!! It's no problem to make him a marquis and a general!!"

As soon as Zhang Ren said this, all the Shu soldiers rushed towards Guan Yu like crazy bulls.Guan Yu was surrounded and fought in the core.In addition, Guan Yu charged too hard before and penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Shu army. Now the Shu army is heavily surrounded and surrounded.For a while, Guan Yu couldn't break through.The Shu soldiers came to fight bravely, Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he shouted impressively.

"You little bastard, Hugh is going crazy!!"

In an instant, Guan Yu's body surged with an incomparably huge aura, and the Qinglong Yanyue Saber in his hand suddenly flew up, with streaks of blue light like flashes of thunder.Zhang Ren watched from behind, as if he saw a blue dragon roaming and wreaking havoc in the chaos army, his face was full of horror.All of a sudden, a group of men and horses rushed towards him, and it was Zhou Cang who led the army to rescue him.Guan Yu took advantage of the situation and opened a bloody path to meet Zhou Cang's army.At this time, most of the Tang soldiers had escaped from the forest of fire, and all of them rushed to Guan Yu's place bravely.Seeing this situation, Zhang Ren was afraid that the Tang soldiers would counterattack, so he didn't make any more entanglements, and ordered them to withdraw.The Shu soldiers withdrew quickly, and Guan Yu and Zhou Cang led a group of troops to pursue them, killing them for several miles.Suspecting that there was an ambush, Guan Yu didn't dare to go further, so he withdrew his troops and rectified his troops.

In this battle, Zhang Ren won a complete victory, and Zhou Cang almost lost all his troops, leaving only hundreds of remnants.More than half of the more than ten thousand soldiers and horses Guan Yu brought to rescue were also burned to death by the fire.As soon as Guan Yu arrived in Brazil, he lost nearly [-] troops without making any achievements, so he hated Zhang Ren.But Zhang Ren relied on Zhuge Liang's strategy to defeat the Tang soldiers. He did not rest that night and withdrew all the way to Guanzhong to prepare for the war.

In addition, Guan Yu was defeated for a while and the army was reorganized. The morale of the soldiers in the army was weakened, and the morale of the army was unstable.Seeing this, Guan Yu came to find Xi Zhicai to discuss.Xi Zhicai had known about last night's battle earlier, and had thought about it in his heart, so he talked to Guan Yu right now.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, so Guan Gong doesn't need to be too concerned about it. Now our army has entered the border of Brazil. According to the previous report, Zhang Guyi withdrew all the troops from all the counties in Brazil to Guanzhong, except for three thousand soldiers stationed in Cangcheng. Cangcheng is not far from Guanzhong, and the terrain is steep and towering. It is a place that military strategists must contend for. If our army can conquer it, we can look at it from a high place and make arrangements in Guanzhong. At that time, I heard that the guard of Cangcheng Chen Jia is infected with the wind disease and has not recovered yet. The general can take advantage of this speed to attack. I have already made arrangements. The general can go straight to the city under the starry night, and attack the city with all his strength if he sees a fire."

After Guan Yu heard this, Danfeng's eyes sparkled, and he asked Xi Zhicai.

"How is it feasible?"

"It's not too late, the general must be ready within three days. You can go now."

When Guan Yu heard the words, he ordered his troops quickly, and ordered them to go immediately.As soon as Guan Yu left, Xi Zhicai called E Huan and Deng Ai again.It took a while for the two of them to arrive, and Xi Zhi whispered in his ear, that's it.The faces of the two froze, and each went away under the secret plan.Let's say that after Zhang Ren returned to Guanzhong City, he was preparing for war.Suddenly a soldier came to report that Chen Jia was seriously ill. Zhang Ren was shocked when he heard the news, and quickly discussed with Ma Dai.

"Cangcheng is an important place in Brazil, so there is nothing to lose. Chen Jia is seriously ill, you can quickly go and replace him."

Hearing the words, Ma Dai took the order and retreated. He led three thousand soldiers and horses to replace Chen Jia in a hurry.At that time, Chen Jia's wind and cold relapsed, and his life was dying. When he was moaning at night, he suddenly reported that the Tang army had arrived at the city.Chen Jia got up quickly and hurriedly ordered people to go to the city to guard.At that time, the gates were on fire, the city was in chaos, and there were shouts of killing everywhere.Chen Jia thought that the Shu soldiers had entered the city, so he screamed and fell unconscious.The soldiers rushed to visit, but Chen Jia was already dead.There are no generals in the soldiers, and there is chaos.Tang soldiers took advantage of the situation to attack, and as soon as they entered the city, the soldiers had no masters, and they surrendered one after another.

But it is said that when Guan Yu led his troops to look at Cangcheng, he didn't see a banner, and there was no one to watch.When Guan Yu saw it, his face showed surprise and doubt, and he didn't dare to attack the city.Suddenly a cannon was heard in the city, and four flags were erected.I saw a man in a white robe with a turban scarf, standing on the Cangcheng, and shouted.

"Guan Gong is late!!"

Guan Yu and the other officers and men regarded him as a man of great ambition, and hurriedly dismounted from their horses. Guan Yu stood in front of the army and said respectfully.

"The strategist is a true master!!"

Soldiers all around yelled loudly.The morale of Tang soldiers soared, and they all thought Xi Zhicai was a god.Xi Zhicai laughed,

Order the sergeant to open the door and put it into the city.Guan Yu came to look for Xi Zhi and asked about it.Xi Zhicai whispered in Guan Yu's ear.

"Earlier, I found out from the secret work that Chen Jia, the guard of Cangcheng, was seriously ill. I ordered Guan Gong to lead the troops to take the city within three days. This is to stabilize everyone's hearts. But I ordered E Huan and Deng Ai to push Order the army and send troops in secret. I hid in the army, and traveled to the city under the starry night, so that he could not transfer troops and change generals in time. Earlier, I ordered to work carefully and serve in the city. But when I saw our army coming, I stayed in the city They set fires and shouted for help, which made the soldiers of Shu panic and uncertain. Chen Jia was already ill, and if he was frightened again, how could he save his life? Attack the unprepared. That’s exactly what it means.”

Guan Yu's face changed continuously when he heard it, and he said in admiration.Xi Zhicai won Cangcheng effortlessly.Among them, the greatest creditor is none other than the Flying Kite Troop, who is responsible for the meticulous work.This time to attack Xichuan, Wen Han had already distributed Feiyuan troops in various places in Xichuan according to the urgency of each place.These flying kite troops are well aware of the situation in the city, the deployment of soldiers and horses, and the skill of concealment, walking like the wind.It was also before Xi Zhicai came that he knew of the existence of Feiyuan's army.

But it is said that Tang soldiers captured Cangcheng.Guan Yu felt sorry for Chen Jia's death, and ordered his wife to carry the coffin back to Guanzhong to show his loyalty.
