Chapter 9 Sudden Change
Yang Zheng hasn't had a good night's sleep since time travelling.

Either in fear, or worry about food.

At night, I have to hold the knife in my arms, and I dare not sleep soundly, for fear that I will be taken away by wild animals in the middle of the night, or my head will be cut off by the Shu army.

Returning to the army now, my heart is finally at ease.

He also slept very deeply.

One after another figure flashed in the dream, past and present, overlapping constantly, including past life parents, boss, present old father, great general Cao Shuang, the dead Wuweiying brothers, and even Pang Hui...

But the most profound thing is a hazy figure, teaching himself to read and martial arts, but no matter what, he still can't see that face clearly, only feel that his eyes are as sharp as blades, piercing through the mist and piercing into himself In my mind, like a mark.

It seems that he is also wrapped in fog.

When I woke up, the sun was shining brightly in May.

I felt that the strength of the whole body was back, and the wound was not so painful.

"The general is awake." Zhao Deng was delighted.

Wang Xi and Linghu Sheng were also around.

Yang Zheng rubbed his drowsy head, but suddenly heard the rumble of war drums outside.

"The general is attacking Shenling." Linghu Sheng looked outside the tent.

Although he knew that Shenling would be broken, how much he would pay is another matter.

In this battle of Xingshi, the Shu army's strength of 12 to [-] troops blocked Cao Shuang's [-] troops. Wang Ping and Fei Yi are well-known generals in the world.

Moreover, Fei Yi is still famous for his political strategy, he will never let Shen Ling be hasty.

Not long after, there was the sound of fighting outside.

Yang Zheng, Linghusheng, Zhao Deng, and Wang Xi walked out of the camp, and saw countless black-armored Wei soldiers rushing towards the mountain on the northern hillside.

On the mountains, arrows are like locusts, and rolling wood and rolling stones rain down like rain.

Before Wei Jun rushed halfway, corpses were lying all over the ground, and blood flowed down slowly like a stream.

Legend has it that the bows and crossbows of the Shu army were specially made by Prime Minister Zhuge, and they can penetrate heavy armor within fifty steps.

It was these crossbowmen that greatly restrained Wei's iron cavalry.

But bows and crossbows put a lot of pressure on logistics, and arrows are also consumables.

The sound of the war drums gradually increased, and the soldiers of the Wei army still desperately attacked the mountains after paying a certain amount of casualties.

General Cao Shuang and Yongliang Governor Xia Houxuan personally supervised the formation, and the Wuwei, Zhongba, Zhongjian, and Yongliang armies all fought forward.

No matter how much resentment and dissatisfaction the soldiers have in their hearts, returning to Guanzhong is the unanimous desire.

What Yang Zheng had seen before were all small scenes, two or three hundred people fighting with weapons, but now it was a big scene all over the mountains and plains, with countless good guys dying generously, his blood couldn't help but boil, and he didn't even have the slightest timidity.

Perhaps he has fully adapted to the new identity and this era.

Or maybe he already had a dream of being a hero in his heart.

I want to come to the book to record how majestic it is to take the head of an enemy general among thousands of armies.

The killing sound shook the sky, and the sky changed color for it.

Half an hour later, the rain of arrows from the Shu army gradually became thinner, and arrows were everywhere on the hillside, like a forest of reeds.

Even Lei Mu and Rolling Stone are scarce.

Wei Jun paved a bloody road with his life.

More than a dozen brave generals rushed to the front with their knives, like a flood, rushing up the mountain from bottom to top.

In less than an hour, the flags of the Shu army were cut down one by one, and the mountains were covered with black armor.

The Shu army retreated into the mountains and forests.

The fighting on the northern ridges was also nearly over.

The cheers of Wei Jun resounded all over the mountains and plains.

Zhao Deng and Wang Xi beside him cheered.

Yang Zheng couldn't help but be delighted, and when he returned to Guanzhong, he asked Cao Shuang for a foreign transfer. It wouldn't be difficult to be a farmer Sima and a county captain, right?

If Cao Shuang thinks about love and becomes a governor, wouldn't he become a prince?
But this can only be a dream.

Anyone who can serve as the governor of Cao Wei is a family name.

The family roots run deep.

If you are in this situation, don’t fantasize about it, you won’t be able to sit still even if you go up.

In any case, let's get out of his broken ship first.

Perhaps the original owner had a master-servant affection for Cao Shuang, but Yang Zheng did not.

So there is no psychological burden.

You can't look at the big pit in front of you and just jump into it, right?

Thinking in his mind, Linghu Sheng said beside him: "The people of Shu don't even want to fight to the death. Don't stop them from returning to their masters. They must be surrounded by teachers. Don't force them to be poor! The people of Shu will definitely hide behind and kill them!"

This sentence was said in Sun Tzu's Art of War, so it's not surprising that Yang Zheng, a later generation, knows it.

But it's not easy to say it from Linghu Sheng's mouth.

In this era, not everyone has access to military books. In fact, no matter what kind of books are monopolized by aristocratic families.

When Liu Bei entered Shu, he couldn't even find the official book, so Zhuge Liang wrote it silently from memory.

Since Cao Pi adopted Chen Qun's policy to implement the Nine-Rank Official Personnel Law, the official titles in the court have been monopolized, but anyone who stands in the court has a deep background.

The famous general Zhang He played a decisive role in the Battle of Guandu. Since joining Cao Wei, he has been conscientious and has made many military exploits.

The reputation is high, but it has been swaying around the periphery.

Sima Yi got up from behind and easily pressed on top of his head.

Even his former subordinate Guo Huai, relying on the Guo family in Taiyuan, was born in Xiaolian, and he surpassed Zhang Yun in just a few years.

Including Sima Yi, Cao Shuang, Xia Houxuan, Guo Huai, etc., have been officials and generals for generations.

Wei Guo is full of second-generation officials and second-generation generals.

The Three Kingdoms has entered the era of paying attention to family background.

The era when the heroes of the former Three Kingdoms started in the grass is gone.

"Ziqian is right, the Shu army will definitely cover up and kill from behind!" Yang Zheng echoed Linghu Sheng.

The gap in Shenling was opened, Wei Jun also lost his fighting spirit, and rushed forward, scrambling for the road, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Yang Zheng looked at the mountains and forests on the east and west sides, and the flocks of birds were startled.

"The Shu people still have an ambush, so let's go too!"

In fact, without Yang Zheng's orders, everyone around them moved.

Since his debut, Sima Yi has captured Mengda, fought Zhuge, destroyed Liaodong, forced Sun Quan to retreat, and used soldiers like ghosts and gods, subtly, becoming the pillar of Cao Wei.

And this attack on Shu was the rare defeat of Wei State in the past ten years, which further highlighted Cao's incompetence.

The Wei army was in chaos, and none of the generals could control it, and the situation gradually got out of control.

The mountain pass is so narrow, the armies trampled on each other, and many people rolled down from the mountains.

At this moment, in the eastern and western forests, the shouts were loud, and the Shu army suddenly rushed out, and the smoke and dust billowed from behind. It seemed that Jiang Wan led the army to kill.

When people are in a desperate situation, it is natural that everyone is united and united, but now that the gap leading to Guanzhong has been opened, and there is a glimmer of hope, no one wants to fight to the death.

Feather arrows poured down like a torrential rain again, more violent than before.

There was even the sound of cavalry trampling the ground in the rear.

The crowd became even more flustered, armor and weapons were thrown all over the place.

What was united as one just now turned into a rout in the blink of an eye.

In such a situation, I am afraid that Sun Wu will be resurrected, and there is nothing he can do.

The four of them were coerced by the rebel army, and they were pushed to the mountain pass involuntarily.

Suddenly, someone in the chaos army was heard shouting, "Don't mess up, don't mess up!"

It's Cao Shuang's voice!

Yang Zheng took a look from a distance, and saw Cao Shuang, Xia Houxuan and others were surrounded by hundreds of guards, fleeing northward in a state of embarrassment.

There are chaotic troops around, no one cares about the generals and governors, rushing indiscriminately.

Even Cao Shuang's personal guards fled quietly.

The majesty of the general has long since been wiped out.

The iron hooves rolled in the rear, and the Shu army came to the east and west sides.

The crowd became more flustered.

At a critical moment, Yang Zheng saw a huge flag raised on the hill in the east, and a general in the west waved an army to resist.

Barely stopped the Shu army.

However, Cao Shuang's situation was even worse. Several elite Shu troops came to kill him while watching his tooth flag.

Yang Zheng couldn't care less about this stall.

Your own life is at stake.

Fleeing north with the rebel army.

Before he had run two steps, he heard Cao Shuang shouting from behind: "Xingyun help me!"

Yang Zheng almost spat out a mouthful of old blood on the spot.

With so many people, how did Cao Shuang see himself?

Is it really a tacit understanding?

I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.
