Han Shimou

Chapter 857

After a while, Ma Chao finally made a breakthrough and was about to chase after him. ( ) Hearing a violent bang, Pang De held a knife and rushed to stand in front of Ma Chao. The lion-headed machete suddenly emitted a shocking red light, and a red angry lion loomed on the blade.Ma Chao saw it eagerly, and immediately killed the lion-running sky-cracking spear technique, the brocade silver lion tooth spear surrounded by colorful silver lights, and a god lion with a white snake tail came out impressively.

Between the lightning and the flint, the knives and guns collided suddenly.When they collided, they seemed to see in their eyes, the red angry lion opened its teeth and claws, and the white snake-tailed god lion opened its huge mouth, and the two lions rushed to bite together impressively.

With a loud 'bang', the brocade silver lion tooth gun and the lion head machete slammed apart, and the two rushed forward. Ma Chao roared angrily, and stabbed Pound's left shoulder with a shot. The knife cut a dazzling flame on Ma Chao's breastplate.Ma Chao, man and horse, flew tens of meters violently. Pound's mount screamed and fell to the ground.Pound lost his momentum and fell to the ground. He was exhausted at this time, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up. Several Northwest generals rushed to protect Pound.As soon as Ma Chao retreated into the formation, he was immediately surrounded and killed by soldiers from the northwest.

Zhang Ren was fighting with Cheng Gongying on the other side. The two killed dozens of rounds. Zhang Ren was stronger than Cheng Gongying, but the two martial arts were not on par. For a while, Zhang Ren was unable to defeat Cheng Gongying quickly.Although Zhang Ren fought with Cheng Gongying, he had always been paying attention to Wen Han. He was terrified and regretful when he saw Wen Han escaped from danger again and again.

Suddenly, there was a shocking shout of killing.It turned out that Zhao Yun led most of the Northwest soldiers back to rescue Zhang Ren. Seeing this, Zhang Ren felt as if he had fallen into an ice abyss. He thought Liu Bei had been killed by Zhao Yun, so he didn't dare to fight hard, so he ordered the soldiers of the rear army to evacuate quickly.Xichuan's rear army retreated quickly, and the situation suddenly became chaotic.Zhang Ren hurriedly killed Kai Cheng Gongying, and ordered all the ministries to lead the troops back.Sergeant Xichuan knew that the battle situation was extremely serious, if he escaped half a step too late, he would surely die, so he rushed to escape in all directions.Seeing that the situation was not good, Ma Chao and Tai Shici didn't care about chasing and killing Wen Han, so they hurriedly sacrificed their lives to fight a bloody road to escape.

Fortunately, the Northwest Army has been fighting for days, and all the soldiers are exhausted. They fought bravely just now, but they persisted with a strong will. Now the tense nerves are relaxed, and a strong sense of fatigue suddenly surges up.Wen Han also knew that the soldiers were tired, and also understood the reason why the poor should not pursue them, so he did not order to cover up and kill the Xichuan army, and let the Xichuan soldiers and horses flee.

So far, the battle on Dingjun Mountain has finally come to an end.Although the Northwest Army won a big victory, it paid a huge price. It lost the army with food, grass and supplies.

Wen Han rectified his troops and horses, ordered the army to retreat to an empty valley, and set up a camp for a while to rest.Zhao Yun rushed to find Wen Han, Wen Han saw Zhao Yun coming, his face just lit up with joy, but suddenly he saw Zhao Yun dismounted and knelt down.

Seeing this, Wen Han couldn't help but frown, secretly paying attention in his heart. **

"Could it be possible for this Liu Daer to escape again!!?"

As soon as Wen Han thought of this, he heard Zhao Yun tell the story one by one.When Wen Han heard it, Liu Bei rode his horse through a [-]-meter-long moat, and he was horrified.If he didn't know Zhao Yun's virtues well and knew that he was an honest person, he would have thought that Zhao Yun was negligent and dereliction of duty, and deliberately used this ridiculous excuse to deceive him.

Wen Han's saber eyes flashed with coldness, but finally suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and sighed in a concentrated voice.

"The life of the big-eared thief should not be terminated. God blesses him. In fact, God does not want to terminate his life. Forget it, forget it!!!"

Fearing that Wen Han would insist on chasing and killing Liu Bei regardless of the current situation, Li You hurriedly bowed his hands to persuade him.

"My lord, our army's rations can only last for three days at present, and the soldiers are tired from fighting for a long time, so we must not fight lightly again. In your opinion, return to Anhan as soon as possible, and order the counties and counties in Dongchuan to urgently allocate food as supplies. Moreover, the mobilization of food and grass also takes half a month. The Lord just uses this half month as a buffer to give the soldiers rest, recharge their energy, and then continue to plot the great cause of Shu."

As soon as Li You finished speaking, Cheng Gongying who was beside him also cupped his hands and said.

"However, Dongchuan has fought repeatedly in recent years, and the food stocks in the counties and counties are about to be exhausted. The food and grass that can be deployed can sustain our army for half a month at most. In addition, according to Zhong Yao's report, there is not much food left in Yongzhou and Liangzhou. My lord should be here. Within half a month, a complete strategy has been devised to ensure that the war in Shu is safe. If the Jiameng pass can be broken, great things will come to the rescue.

Xichuan is a place rich in money and food, our army can fight and support it, first use the food from Dongchuan, Yong, and Liang, and slowly maintain it, and when we attack the cities and counties in Xichuan and seize their food and grass, we will not worry about the shortage of food and grass.But if within half a month, the Jiameng Pass cannot be destroyed, the food and grass will be exhausted.Within a year, the Xichuan War will be difficult to repeat!

"Fortunately, after a series of vicious battles with Xichuan's army, our army was greatly damaged. At the same time, we captured Huang Zhong, a peerless general, and killed Xichuan General Yan Yan. The strength of our army was greatly damaged. How can it be invincible if the army overturns and attacks?

I also hope that the lord will follow Li Jijiu's words, put the overall situation first, and withdraw the troops for the time being. "

Cheng Gongying and Li You sang together, analyzed the truth and the situation, and subtly persuaded Wen Han to withdraw his troops.Wen Han naturally understood the truth, nodded and said with a bright smile.

"What you said is very true. You should follow it."

Wen Han decided to settle down, so he ordered all the soldiers and horses to rest for a day and withdraw their troops in the next day.All the soldiers in the northwest were overjoyed to hear that the fighting had ceased and their nervous nerves were finally relaxed.

The next day, the Northwest Army finished its rest.Wen Han led most of the army to retreat to Anhan first, while Zhao Yun led a small army to stay behind to prevent Zhang Ren from attacking.

At the same time, in Jiameng Pass.Zhang Ren learned from Tai Shici that in order to successfully kill Wen Han yesterday, Liu Bei sent Tai Shici to help in the battle regardless of the danger.Zhang Ren was surprised when he heard this, and sighed for Liu Bei's benevolence. At the same time, he felt an extremely bitter feeling in his heart, as if he felt extremely guilty for not being able to kill Wen Han.

Liu Bei's life and death were uncertain, Hua Xiong, Tai Shici and other generals were extremely impatient.Wenpin and Chen Shi had already led the army to explore around Dingjun Mountain.Inside Jiameng Pass, it seems that because of Liu Bei's accident, it cast a shadow.Fazheng and Mengda looked at each other silently, and both sighed with regret and frustration.

Suddenly a soldier came to report that Liu Bei had escaped from birth and had been found by Wenpin and Chen Shi's men.Zhang Ren was overjoyed when he heard this, and all the soldiers in Xichuan were also overjoyed.Zhang Ren hurriedly rushed out of the battle tower and led a group of Xi Chuan to wait at the pass.

When I was young, a gust of wind and dust rolled up outside the pass, and a group of people rushed over.Zhang Ren cast his eyes anxiously, and gradually saw Liu Bei's figure, and immediately patted his horse and looked for Liu Bei to welcome him.The Xichuan soldiers behind him also followed closely on their horses.

Liu Bei was on his way, when he saw Zhang Ren riding his horse, he reined in his horse and stopped.Zhang Ren galloped his horse towards him, got off his horse and bowed his hands to Liu Bei, saluting with great guilt.

"Zhang Ren is incompetent!! He has failed the emperor's uncle!!"

Zhang Ren's move immediately surprised everyone on the field.Zhang Ren has always hated Liu Bei and never had a good face, but now he is willing to lower his proud head and apologize to Liu Bei, which is really unexpected.

Seeing Zhang Ren kneeling down, Liu Bei was overjoyed, knowing that his act of sacrificing his life yesterday must have won Zhang Ren's respect.Liu Bei dismounted quickly, helped Zhang Ren up, and spoke to Zhang Rang softly.

"There is no need for Governor Zhang to blame himself. The soldiers under Wen Bufan's command are brave and tough. It is undoubtedly difficult to kill him. Fortunately, his army has lost all food and grass, and it is difficult to continue the war. It must have withdrawn by this time. Our army is now Losing troops and losing generals, the strength is greatly damaged, we should make preparations quickly, use deep ditches and earth fortifications, and prepare for Wen Bufan to raise his troops and make a comeback!"

What Liu Bei said was exactly what Zhang Ren wanted.Zhang Ren nodded in response.

"What the emperor said is very true. Now that the crisis at Jiamengguan is not over, we still have to rely on the emperor. Zhang has offended something in the past, and I hope that the emperor will have a lot. Don't worry about it."

"Hey! Gu Yi's words are wrong! You have sacrificed your life for my younger brother Ji Yu to guard this place and keep Yizhou peaceful. Who in the land of Shu would not praise Gu Yi! Be prepared to work with Gu Yi , It’s really a blessing to prepare. I hope you and I can work together to repel Wen Bufan’s bandit army, so as to protect Yizhou without losing any ground!!!”

In the past, Zhang Ren would have dismissed Liu Bei's righteous words.But after yesterday's battle, Zhang Ren's impression of Liu Bei changed a lot, and he really thought that what Liu Bei said was from the bottom of his heart.

I saw that Zhang Ren was very moved when he heard the words, and hurriedly bowed to Liu Bei to pay respects.

"The emperor's uncle is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. It is really a blessing for the people of Shu to have the help of the emperor's uncle!"

Liu Bei laughed, then took Zhang Ren's hand and walked side by side intimately.Fazheng secretly saw that Zhang Ren already had admiration for Liu Bei, and he was overjoyed. At the same time, he secretly sighed that Liu Bei was so clever, decisive and ruthless. His feat of sacrificing his life for righteousness won Zhang Ren's respect.

At this point, Zhang Ren never made things difficult for Liu Bei, and respected him immensely.Before he knew it, Liu Bei had won the hearts of all Xichuan soldiers in Jiameng Pass.

The war in Shu has come to an end for the time being.And just one month ago, Luoyang, the imperial capital.Cao Cao received a letter from Wen Han and learned that Liu Bei was leaving for Xichuan.At that time, Cao Cao was discussing with his ministers whether to take advantage of Wen Han's large-scale army to conquer the land of Shu, and take advantage of it to attack the northwest.

Cao Cao's pair shimmered brightly, as if there were details of the weather-swallowing momentum. After reading out the Wen Hanwen, he said with laughter to all his ministers.

"Everyone, do you have a good opinion on the current situation? Should Wen Bufan take advantage of Wen Bufan to send troops to Shu and conquer the northwest, or should Liu Bei go to Xichuan and march south to Jingzhou?"

As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, Cheng Yu got up to attend, clasped his hands and bowed to report.

"Yi Yu's opinion. Wen Bufan is the hero of the world. He sits in the northwest and the world is big. Only his power is the closest to the power of King Wei. Although Liu Xuande was assisted by Zhuge Kongming, a rare talent, his power was able to rise. However, its foundation is not stable. Unlike Wen Bufan who has ruled the Northwest for many years, his power is deeply rooted, and the people are all attached to him. Compared with Wen Bufan, Liu Xuande is just a shining light. The King of Wei should get rid of Wen Bufan first and divide the Northwest Raiders, stabilize the situation, gather millions of troops, and march south, even if the Sun and Liu families unite, they will be no match for the King of Wei's million troops!!!"

As soon as Cheng Yu's remonstrance fell, Xun You got up to attend and retorted.
