Han Shimou

() Zhang Liao roared violently, the sound was like thunder, and the sky painted halberd above his hand was surging with blood, as if he could kill ghosts and gods.Ma Dai was frightened for a moment, shouted loudly, and swung the gun, sending Hu Che'er's body flying.Zhang Liao was anxious when he saw this, he rode his horse to meet Hu Che'er's body with one hand.At this moment, Pan Ping had already pulled the bow string, the sound of the string was loud, and the arrow shot like lightning.Zhang Liao couldn't dodge it, and was shot in the back by an arrow.Zhang Liao shouted bitterly, and when he turned his horse to retreat, Zhang Fei had already galloped over.

"A traitorous dog thief!! Look at the arrows!!!"

It was too late and then quickly, the Guan brothers shot their arrows together, and the two arrows rushed forward. Zhang Fei heard the sound of piercing the air behind him, and quickly turned around and twisted his spear to block it. With two bangs, the arrows were broken.But at this moment, Zhang Liao has rushed back to the formation.Xu Shu was so angry that he ordered the iron convoy to advance bravely.Suddenly, the sound of shouting and killing erupted violently, and the arrows were as fierce as a continuous storm, causing the Shu soldiers to flee in a panic.Gritting his teeth, Zhang Fei and Pan Ping, Ma Dai and other generals desperately defended their positions, in case the Tang soldiers took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill them.Zhang Liao was injured, so Xu Shu didn't dare to rush forward. After venting his anger by driving the iron convoy, he quickly ordered all the troops to withdraw. . .

So the two armies withdrew separately, the Tang army was defeated for a while, and Hu Che'er was defeated, and the commander of the three armies, Zhang Liao, was shot and wounded by Pan Ping.Tang Jun's army was unstable and morale was low.But it is said that Zhang Liao took the army back to the pass, pulled out the arrow, and applied Jinchuang medicine.Although Zhang Liao was injured, but the battle situation is critical now, how dare he relax in the slightest.That night, Zhang Liao summoned Xu Shu, the Guan brothers and others to discuss.Xu Shu's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice.

"Our army has been defeated for a while today. The morale of the three armies is low. One is going up and the other is going up, and the other is strong and vigorous. According to my expectation, Zhuge Liang will definitely take advantage of the momentum to pursue him. The general is wounded. Don't confront it head-on, but strictly guard the pass and resist it." . .

When Zhang Liao heard this, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he asked while suppressing his anger.

"The army is powerful, the morale of the army is unstable, and the soldiers are decadent. I'm afraid it will be difficult to defend for a long time. If this is the case, don't you teach me to wait for death and capture it with nothing!?"

"No. General, be safe and don't be impatient. If the other army comes to attack, you can use the iron fleet to meet it. The iron fleet is impregnable with iron walls and is impenetrable. It has both offensive and defensive capabilities. Although it has flaws, as long as you are careful, it will definitely help us defend this pass. !"

Xu Shu said in a concentrated voice, Zhang Liao couldn't help but think in his mind when he heard the words, today is relying on this iron convoy to turn the tide.Zhang Liao was sure, so he nodded and said.

"Yuan Zhi's words are true, so let's do as you say!"

Zhang Liao's decision had been made, so Xu Shu made arrangements for each of them, naturally it was no problem.At the same time, in the Shu army stronghold, Zhuge Liang was discussing with the generals in the tent.Zhang Fei looked displeased, staring around, furious, and shouted in a thunderous voice.

"It's all because of the barbarian mistake of Wu Tugu! If he hadn't been defeated by the bandits Tang, even the iron convoy would have been captured by the bandits. Today we will definitely defeat the bandits and capture and kill Zhang Wenyuan and other gangsters!!"

As soon as Zhang Fei said this, all the generals were angry.However, Zhuge Liang was calm, fanning the goose feather fan slowly, and said slowly.

"The matter is a foregone conclusion, why should Yide pursue it again? Now our army has won for a while, and the morale of the other army is low, and Zhang Wenyuan is injured. Right now, our army only needs to attack with all its strength, and it will be broken in one fell swoop. But the iron convoy It is tricky, if you want to break through this level, you must first break through this army."

Hearing this, Zhang Fei thought of how powerful the iron convoy was today, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, and asked Zhuge Liang anxiously.

"I don't know if the military master has a plan!?"

"This army was originally trained by Liang. How could Liang not know about its flaws? Tomorrow, you can do this."

Zhuge Liang's expression was indifferent, and he taught the generals without any haste.Hearing this, Zhang Fei was overjoyed at first, and then said with a little regret.

"The strategist's plan is great, but it's a pity that these sharp weapons will be destroyed."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and smiled when he heard the words, and said meaningfully.

"These sharp weapons are not yet complete, how can they be overly dependent? Fortunately, no major mistakes have been made because of this. If they are destroyed, they will be destroyed."

After Zhang Fei listened, he seemed to understand but half understood.But soon, he turned his attention to tomorrow's fight. As long as the iron convoy is broken, it is undoubtedly a treasure hunt if he wants to take the Shankou pass.

In the early morning of the next day, it was exactly as Xu Shu expected.Most of the Shu soldiers came rushing all over the mountains and plains, only to see banners covering the sun in the distance, swords and guns like forests, murderous, like overwhelming the sky.When Xu Shu saw it, he hurriedly taught the sergeants to drive the iron convoy to the pass, and taught the crossbowmen to prepare for battle.After a while, the Shu army opened up a large formation, Zhuge Liang came out in a four-wheeled cart, and shouted at Xu Shu.

"Yuanzhi is here all right!? After a few years of separation, I never imagined that you and I would each be our own masters today. Fighting in this barrier is indeed an impermanent world."

Xu Shu heard the words, his resolute face froze, stepped out, looked down at Zhuge Liang who was under the gate, and responded with a wave of his sleeves.

"Zhuge Kongming, I know you have a sharp tongue, but you don't have to waste your words. Tang and Shu are at war, and the fire and water are incompatible, and the soldiers of the two countries are sworn enemies. The old friendship between you and me has been broken long ago!!!"

"Yuanzhi is so ruthless! My lord Liu Xuande, benevolence and righteousness permeate the world, and the world respects it all. In the past, you were also his counselor. Since you left, my lord always thinks of you, and tears flow down my face. I can't forget the old days. Love. Wen Bufan is nothing more than a poor family, and he is definitely not the ruler of the world. Why didn’t Yuan Zhi know his way back, return to the king of Shu, help the Han Dynasty, and bring peace to the world!?”

Zhuge Liang was unmoved by Xu Shu's harsh words, and said with a smile.When Xu Shu heard this, his eyes widened and he shouted angrily. <People's hearts are really not Mingjun! !Zhuge Kongming, you think you are extremely talented, but you don't know Liu Xuande's evil intentions, like his puppet, it's really ridiculous to work for him! ! "

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang sighed lightly, but still bowed his hands modestly and politely.

"It seems that Yuan Zhi has made up his mind, so there is no need to force others to be so bright."

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, at this moment, a member of the horse came quickly and cast a wink at Zhuge Liang.Zhuge Liang understood in his heart and turned back to the formation.At this moment, bursts of violent noises resounded like heaven and earth cracking.I saw hundreds of vehicles rushing forward, all of which were loaded with huge rocks.On each vehicle, there are two cavalry driving horses.The horses galloped and rushed, and suddenly the soldiers immediately drew their swords and cut off the hemp rope of the trailer.Immediately, hundreds of vehicles rushed away out of control, and the Wangguan Railway convoy slammed into it.When Xu Shu saw it, his expression changed drastically in fright, and he hurriedly ordered the iron convoy to retreat to the gate.However, the iron convoy is extremely heavy and huge, and it is difficult to move quickly at all for a while.It was too late and then it was too fast, the vehicle loaded with huge boulders slammed into it with great momentum, and the momentum of the vehicle riding on the boulder intensified, and suddenly knocked the iron cars over and over.Shut down a mess.The soldiers in the car screamed miserably and were hit by flying stones. I don't know how many soldiers were crushed to death. The soldiers who were able to save their lives hurriedly fled, looking embarrassed, rushing back to the pass.In this period of time, more than half of the closed iron convoy has been damaged, and the rest is also damaged.Xu Shu was terrified, and then heard Zhuge Liang laugh again.

"Yuan Zhi miscalculated! This iron train was originally built by Liang, and Liang didn't know the flaws in it. To break it, Liang has at least ten thousand ways!!"

As soon as Zhuge Liang finished speaking, the shouts of the Shu soldiers suddenly shook the sky, and Zhang Fei, Hua Xiong and other generals rushed towards them.In the Shu formation, the drums were beating loudly, and the horns were sounding together.When the Tang soldiers closed the door, they saw that the Shu soldiers were so mighty, and they were cold before the battle.Xu Shu calmed down his panic, his brain turned and he hurriedly taught the sergeants to pull firewood under the pass, waiting for the soldiers from Shu to come.When Xu Shu gave an order, the crossbowmen quickly fired rockets, but they didn't shoot at the Shu army, but shot at the firewood.Immediately, the fire surged, and the hundreds of vehicles that had been smashed into pieces burst into flames in an instant. At the same time, the iron cars were burning red and extremely hot. If someone stretched out their hands Touching it, I am afraid that the skin and bones can be roasted in an instant.Seeing this, the soldiers of Shu did not dare to approach. Although there were a large number of people, they were blocked by the fire that was shut down.Xu Shu took advantage of the situation and ordered the crossbowmen to shoot arrows randomly, closing the arrows and stones like rain, and the arrows fell violently.The Shu soldiers were shot and retreated violently.When Zhuge Liang saw it, there was no confusion, he first taught the army to retreat and then hit the ground with a single arrow.Then Zhuge Liang taught the soldiers to transport the soil and flood it.The soldiers of Shu were ordered.By noon, the preparations were complete.So the sword and shield hands first built a shield wall to resist the arrows, and the soldiers of all ministries dug and transported the soil and flooded.Seeing this, Xu Shu quickly taught the crossbowmen and tried his best to stop them.At dusk, although the fire was extinguished, most of the soldiers in Shu were tired.Zhang Fei and other generals, seeing that the fire was extinguished, had long held back their anger and taught the soldiers to attack with all their strength.The two armies fought on and off the pass. Although the Shu soldiers were powerful, they had not been able to break through until the first shift at night because of the loss of strength.Seeing the battle situation, Zhuge Liang didn't want to entangle too much, so he ordered the troops to withdraw.The Shu soldiers withdrew, and the fierce fighting stopped.Xu Shu watched the army of Shu soldiers retreating like a tide, and he couldn't help but see a strong look of worry in his eyes.

That night, in the closed enemy building.Xu Shu, Zhang Liao and others will discuss.

"The iron convoy has been broken by Zhuge Kongming. The Shankou Pass is hard to hold on for long, and our army is desperately defending it, but it will be of no avail. Right now, we should make a decisive decision, abandon the pass and retreat, and retreat to Dongchuan!"

Zhang Liao's expression changed when he heard the words, and he immediately refused.

"No! His army is powerful. If it reaches Dongchuan, our army will be hard to resist. Once Dongchuan is lost, the Western Tang Dynasty will be in chaos and people will panic!! State affairs are the most important thing. Protect the country!!"

Zhang Liao was so mighty, his whole body was full of stamina.All the generals were amazed when they saw it.Xu Shu's expression sank, and he cupped his hands and said.

"General Zhang is willing to sacrifice his life for the country. It is really my fortune in the Western Tang Dynasty. But at this time and that time, and now it is not the time to fight to the death with him, how can he ignore his life!? My lord led an army of [-] to help Xiliang , although Ma Mengqi is brave, but he has no planners, and there are no advisers under his command. According to my prediction, within two months, the lord will definitely wipe out the horse thieves and lead the army to rescue. We only need to resist them After two months in the army, the danger can be solved!!"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao's face changed continuously, and he finally agreed with what Xu Shu said, nodding his head.

"What Xu Gong said is also reasonable. But if our army withdraws, Zhuge Liang will cover up and kill us, what can we do?"

After hearing this, Xu Shu seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, just like Zhang Liao taught Taoism.After hearing this, Zhang Liao was overjoyed, and according to Xu Shu's plan, he made arrangements for each of them.Let's say that when Zhuge Liang returned to the village, he suddenly sent his scouts to investigate. They supervised every move in Shankou Pass day and night, but if there was any movement, they would report it immediately.The generals will ask questions.Zhuge Liang had a well-thought-out plan, as if he had already planned it, and he answered with all the generals.

"I have broken the iron convoy. Although Xu Yuanzhi can resist our army for a while today, but after our army has rested and regained its strength, we can attack Shankou Pass in one fell swoop. Xu Yuanzhi knows that he will not be able to continue for a long time, and he will definitely abandon it." Guan withdrew the army. I sent scouts to search, but as soon as the other army withdrew, I immediately drove the troops to cover up and kill them, and the other army would definitely be defeated!!"

As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, all the generals came to their senses.At five o'clock at night, the sky is getting brighter.Suddenly a scout came to report, and Tang Jun really abandoned the pass and retreated.Zhuge Liang quickly summoned the generals and ordered them to teach.

"Xu Yuanzhi is full of resourcefulness, and he is not an idler. If you wait to pursue him, you must be careful, think about everything, think twice before acting, and don't fall for his tricks!!"

The generals took the order and led their subordinates to pursue them one after another.Zhang Fei, Hua Xiong, and Pan Ping each led an army to set off, while Zhuge Liang and Ma Dai led the rear troops to meet them.The soldiers and horses of the three groups were flying all the way, and when they were about to reach the Shankou Pass, they saw the fire raging.At this time, several scouts came to report that Tang Bing set fire to the pass as soon as he withdrew from the pass.Hearing this, Zhang Fei hummed with a cold face.

"Hmph! Just as the military adviser expected. Seeing that the situation is extremely strong, the dog thieves of the Tang Dynasty abandoned the pass and withdrew, but they were afraid that we would chase after them, so they made this bad plan and set fire to the pass to delay time!!"
