Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

"Three days, three whole days——"

Liu Bei, who was standing halfway up Dingjun Mountain, looked extremely nervous. In fact, it had been three days since he sent Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun to burn the antlers outside the Wei army's east stronghold.

The fire dissipated, leaving only ruins on the ground.

Without the protection of the antlers, the Shu army naturally launched a general attack on the Wei army's east camp.

The bloody setting sun fills the sky——

For three whole days, in front of Nadongying's camp, the Shu army and the Wei army launched an extremely bloody offensive and defensive battle.

And according to the reports from the scouts, I have the advantage——

Due to their numerical disadvantage, the Wei army suffered extremely heavy losses in the past three days. According to the scouts sent back by Zhang Fei, if Xia Houyuan did not send reinforcements, it would only be a matter of time before they were captured and the enemy general Guo Huai was killed.

嗏

Herein lies the problem.

"How could this be?"

Liu Bei squinted his eyes, tightly clenched the Qianliwang in his hand, and looked at the fierce battlefield with some disbelief, but his tone was full of confusion and confusion.

Fazheng's eyes were also full of doubts. He stroked his beard and thought for a moment before he opened his mouth and said: "Indeed, the current situation is somewhat different from the records in "Yunbie Zhuan"... It is difficult to imagine that Xia Houyuan How could he be so calm that he didn't send reinforcements even if he allowed Dongying to fall? This...isn't like his usual military style!"

Liu Bei also pondered for a moment, "After all, we are focused on attacking the South Camp, so... we attack the East Camp. Although the Third Brother and his friends are powerful, they do not invest much troops. But given the current situation, it might as well, we directly recruit troops to the Third Brother It wouldn't be a bad idea for my disciples, Zilong, Meng Qi and others to seize Dongzhai in one fell swoop and tear out a gap in the entire defense line against Wei and Hanzhong."

Liu Bei held his chin and spoke like this.

But he immediately looked back at his good friend Fazheng: "Xiaozhi? What do you think?"

Whenever the law is around, Liu Bei will tell him whatever he has in mind, listen to the correct words of the law and the pros and cons, and then make the final decision. Over the past few years... this has become a habit that is rooted in Liu Bei's heart.

However, this problem was posed to Fa Zheng, who hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth: "I still don't believe it... Yun Qi's record in "Yun Bie Zhuan" is wrong..."

Liu Bei sighed: "Sun Tzu said: My soldiers are like water. The movement of water avoids heights and tends downwards. The shape of soldiers avoids reality and hits weak points. Water controls the flow according to the ground, and soldiers win according to the enemy. Therefore, soldiers have no constant momentum, and water "Impermanent."

At this point, he paused and continued chanting: "Those who can win due to changes in the enemy are called gods. Therefore, the five elements have no permanent victory, the four seasons have no permanent position, the sun has its shortness and length, and the moon has life and death... Filial piety, in fact, these three On the same day, I thought of this passage in "The Art of War" several times, and I kept wondering if our requirements for Yun Qi were too harsh!"

"He did make accurate calculations once or twice... and he did use that incredible plan to ignite the fire of Sanxing Han. But in fact, he is also a human being, and he is far away in Jingzhou. How could he predict it half a year in advance? He has accurately determined the direction of the Battle of Hanzhong! To this day, his calculations are accurate enough and he has made great achievements. Even if Xia Houyuan does not send reinforcements this time, we should not be too harsh on Yun Qi. !”

Liu Bei's meaning is obvious enough.

Even if the situation does not develop as predicted in "Yunbie Zhuan", it is not Guan Lin's fault. They should also make corresponding plans and not stick to the rules and delay the war.

Fazheng, on the other hand, was still hesitating, his eyes narrowed into slits.

He is thinking...

Why? Wei Jun stood still?

What reason did Xia Houyuan have to stand still?
There is something weird about this!

If this problem cannot be solved, then any subsequent actions, at least in Fa Zheng's case... will not pass the test.

But just when Fa Zheng was hesitating.

"Lord, military advisor, look at--"

The person who spoke was Chen Dao, the "security" captain who was second only to Zhao Yun around Liu Bei.

Chen Dao's eyesight was also extremely sharp. He raised his hand to see a thousand miles away and shouted excitedly to Liu Bei.

It seems like something big happened down the mountain.

And as this sound fell, Liu Bei and Fazheng raised their Thousand Mile Gazers at the same time. It didn't matter if they didn't look at it. At a glance...

Xia Houyuan's Wei army in the south camp suddenly became restless.

Countless generals are ordering troops, and countless soldiers and horses are also urgently displayed.

at the same time.

"woo woo woo woo--"

I could only hear bursts of loud horns resounding from Nanzhai. This was... the order to assemble!
Then, more and more Wei troops came out of the military tents. They were wearing armor. They picked up their weapons and got ready to go.

No, this is no longer getting ready to go. The legions that have completed their troops are the first to leave camp.

Judging from the direction of the march, it is not the Dongzhai camp of the Wei army that is facing the most violent attack by the Shu army? Where else could it be?

"It's moving... it's moving..."

Liu Bei danced excitedly when he saw this scene.

Fazheng also opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth, as if his throat was choked by excitement.

Become!

Become!

Everything is still developing according to the story of "Yun Farewell". After all, Xia Houyuan... still couldn't escape Yun Qi's plan. He... he couldn't help but send reinforcements!

"Lord, military advisor...Looking at this posture, there may be tens of thousands of reinforcements——"

Chen Dao reminded him at the right time.

Liu Bei quickly turned his eyes to Fazheng. At this moment, he, who was originally shaken, once again believed in the "Yun Farewell Biography", "Xiaozhi, your persistence is right. Soldiers have no constant momentum, and water has no constant shape. None of these principles make sense here in Yunqi...haha..."

Liu Bei laughed. This was the closest he had come to defeating Cao Cao. He... He was so excited that he couldn't help himself and danced excitedly.

"Whoosh——" sound...

He directly drew out his two swords. This posture was to lead the charge in person.

However, Fazheng noticed this immediately and quickly stopped Liu Bei, "My lord, since the trends on the Dingjun Mountain battlefield are all according to what is recorded in "Yunbie Zhuan", now, my lord also has to issue the "Yunbie Zhuan" "The military order of Xia Houyuan will definitely be defeated!"

This is a good friend...

Being able to quickly catch the other person's head when it gets hot and quickly keep him calm.

Liu Bei immediately came back to his senses and remembered something.

"General Huang Zhong? Where is General Yan Yan?"

"The end will be..."

Huang Zhong and Yan Yan could not wait for a long time. When they heard Liu Bei's call, they quickly stepped forward.

"The Wei army has moved to the South Village. It seems that they are going to use all their strength to rescue the East Village. So... when the enemy's reinforcements are sent out, General Yan Yan, it will be up to you to burn the antlers outside the South Village and lure out the rebel general Xia Houyuan..."

Following Liu Bei's instructions, Yan Yan immediately handed over his hand and said, "The last general takes orders!"

At this time, Liu Bei's eyes turned to Huang Zhong, "Hansheng, when we were in Jingzhou in the past, you relied on the divine bow made of cloud flags to turn the tide from falling, save the clouds and be better than water and fire, conquer Wancheng, and point the arrow at Xuchang. You have made great achievements, and today..."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei's voice became more serious and meticulous.

He put a hand on Huang Zhong's shoulder.

"Old General Huang has read the "Yun Farewell" compiled by Yun Qi. The book named Xia Houyuan's head as 'General Bai Di'. It was you, Huang Zhonghuang, who beheaded him. Old General! Today... whether the words in the book can be translated into reality and whether it can become the decisive factor in the Hanzhong battle depends entirely on Old General Huang... "Old General Huang obeys the order-"

"Veteran Huang Zhong is here, my lord just gives orders——"

"When the antlers of the Nanzhai are ignited and the enemy general Xiahou Yuan is led out by the old general Yan Yan, you will lead the army to attack directly, kill Xiahou Yuan in one fell swoop, seize the Nanzhai, and advance to Hanzhong——"

Hearing this…

Huang Zhong stroked his long beard and said firmly, "Xia Houyuan, haha, if I don't kill this thief, I will be sorry for the big sword in my hand, and I will be sorry for the powerful bow and crossbow you are carrying. My lord, just watch it -"

As Huang Zhong's words fell.

He and Yan Yan took over the command flag and went to order their own troops. As soon as the Wei army's reinforcements from Nanzhai were withdrawn, they would launch a general attack here!

The situation became increasingly tense.

But tension is tension, but for Huang Zhong, for Liu Bei, and for Fazheng, everything that is happening now is traceable and orderly!

In their view, this battle is just a formality, and the ending is destined to be like the story of "God of War", where victory is inevitable, victory is inevitable——

...

...

Wei Jun Dongzhai.

The leader here, Guo Huai, looked solemn and silent.

Looking up, on the high ridge, the densely packed Shu army was changing their formations, preparing for the next round of attack.

And the antlers on the outside that blocked the Shu army from going south have now been burned into powder.

As for the reinforcements, they were the reinforcements that Guo Huai had been waiting for. For three days in a row, he sent countless people to urge them, but the reinforcements still had not arrived...

What's going on here?
What is General Xiahou waiting for?
Guo Huai didn't understand, he didn't understand at all. In the current situation, what could be more important than preserving Dongzhai and preventing the Shu army from entering Hanzhong?

A drum beat sounded, and an unknown number of waves of arrows hit, covering the sky and the sun, like a torrential rain jumping over the towering wall of the village, hitting the shield built by the Wei army, making a dense "thump" sound.

Three days of onslaught…

It becomes more and more fierce day by day, and the most terrifying thing is... the opponent is still a famous general!
Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao——

Which character would shock everyone in Sichuan without stomping their feet? He... Guo Huai? Is it a hammer?
"Boom...boom..."

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

It turned out that the Thunderbolt Ten Ox Crossbow of the Shu Army fired the huge crossbow arrow. Due to the addition of fire material, the crossbow arrow collided with the village wall, knocking down a piece of the village wall and igniting a fire.

"Smash it over, smash it over again——"

At this time, Zhang Fei's loud and loud voice rang out, as if... at this time, if he didn't attack, Guo Huai... was destined to be unable to defend this position.

At this time, the general beside him asked: "General, does he know? Why...General Xiahou has never sent reinforcements?" What he said instantly aroused the agreement of countless generals.

"Yes... As long as reinforcements arrive, we can rush out... How can we hide in this stronghold and let the enemy's crossbows kill us... This battle is so frustrating!"

call…

Guo Huai let out a long breath. At this time, complaining was of no use. He could only snort coldly, "What? Are you afraid?"

General Su Rong said: "I dare not..."

Guo Huai said in a deep voice: "Then I will give you two thousand men to block the opening. This Dongzhai...is related to the ownership of Hanzhong. The heroes of the Wei Dynasty cannot retreat even one step -"

The general was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I will obey your order..."

Immediately, he turned around and loudly called to the Iron Shield soldiers at the rear of the queue to integrate into formation amidst the rain of arrows. Although some people were constantly shot to the ground by crossbow arrows, they still formed a phalanx under the pressure of their uncles.

Following a low horn, the iron shield phalanx, like a giant stone, began to move slowly but firmly...

The rain of arrows hit the huge and thick iron shield, making only a "dinging, clanking" sound, and they all fell to the ground.

At this time...

Suddenly, densely packed Wei troops began to appear from the flanks of the Shu army.

Countless flags were flapping in the wind. The 60,000 elite Wei troops from the southern camp...their reinforcements had arrived.

Sun Li, who was fully armed, was already sharpening his sword...

The young and energetic Xia Houwei and Xia Hourong led the infantry on the mountain road, taking the lead...

These iron-tower-like Wei army men were panting because they were rushing along the mountain road, and their pairs of huge feet were constantly trampling the mud and ashes.

Xia Houwei had already seen the Shu army. He took out the saber from his waist and looked majestic.

The moment he drew his sword, the entire Wei army fell silent for a moment, and then... roared instantly. They slapped their shields, pulled out daggers, bamboo spears... and their momentum was like a rainbow.

Wei general Sun Li saw the two Xiahou princes majestic and sharpening their swords. He immediately issued a military order, "Surround the Shu army and kill without mercy——"

He blurted out, "Kill without mercy..." Accompanied by the shouts of the soldiers, the Wei army rushing for reinforcements was like a dark cloud, and it was like a dagger, inserted from the flank... straight into the heart of the Shu army.

However, Sun Li did not forget to order the scouts, "Quickly beat the drums, blow the horns, and report to General Guo Huai that the reinforcements have arrived--"

Not long after...

Wuwuwu——

The trumpet symbolizing the Wei army's attack sounded.

At this moment, Guo Huai had a feeling of auditory hallucination. This was the horn of the Wei army and the war song of the Wei army...

"It's coming, it's coming... Our reinforcements are finally here..."

Guo Huai jumped up excitedly. He did not forget to stretch out his hand, and his bodyguard quickly handed him his broadsword.

Guo Huai immediately roared and ordered, "Send my military order and the whole army will attack——"

"咚咚-"

In the Shu army, the hoarse sound of the eight-niu crossbow machine sounded. The arm-thick crossbow bolts tore through the air and struck into the iron shield formation with a sharp cry.

"Boom bang bang..."

The sound of the iron shield shattering came one after another, and the crossbow bolt pierced the shield array like a bolt of lightning, thrusting the shield soldiers in the front row up, and then penetrated several Wei soldiers behind, flying several feet away.

The gleaming crossbow arrows found the gap in the shield wall, and rushed into the crowd with an ear-piercing scream, and the wailing broke out again.

However, what awaited from the sudden wailing and the agitated dust and smoke was not the timidity and retreat of the Wei army, but the outpouring of all the Wei army from the entire Dongying camp.

Guo Huai had already jumped on his horse and shouted: "Come on, follow me and break into the formation——"

Xia Hourong on the periphery was even more excited, "Have you seen that black-faced ghost? Cut off his head, and now -"

Suddenly, Xia Hou Rong, Xia Hou Wei, Guo Huai, Sun Li... the four groups of Wei troops almost surrounded the Shu army, quickly shrinking the defense line, bayonets red...

The battle situation has reached a fever pitch!
"General Zhang, General Zhao...there are Wei troops from all directions...coming towards...attacking us..."

The scouts could no longer find Ma Chao in the melee. When they saw Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun together, they immediately ran towards them and reported quickly.

On the other hand, when Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun heard such information, their expressions did not waver at all...

Zhang Fei was even secretly happy.

His uncontrollable smile was about to burst out.

He looked at more and more Wei soldiers and seemed to be saying.

——"Your Grandpa Zhang has been waiting for three days, and you are finally here!" 』

——'If you don't come again, you Mr. Zhang will be anxious to death! 』

There has never been a time when Zhang Fei was... more excited than at this moment.

Zhao Yun, on the other hand, seemed calmer. Looking at the densely packed Wei troops coming around him, he thought to himself.

——"There are only so many Wei troops in Hanzhong. Now that they are all present in the East Village, then... Xiahou Yuan's side of the South Village must be empty!" 』

——"Although it is a few days later than expected, in the end, everything is developing according to the story in "Yunbie Zhuan"! very good! 』

Just when he thought of this, Zhang Fei yelled at him.

"Zilong, your Seven Detective Coiled Snake Spear... is rumored to be amazing, but I don't believe it is more powerful than my eight-foot-long snake spear? We are all here, let's see who can kill more thieves? How about it?"

Zhang Fei became interested...

Zhao Yun was as calm as ever, "Yide, don't be careless, when the time is right... we still have to evacuate!"

"What are you afraid of..." Zhang Fei smiled, but lowered his voice and said: "When these Wei troops hear that Nanzhai has been robbed, and their general Bai Di has been completely given away, will his mentality collapse? Do we still need to withdraw? Let's withdraw What a hair!"

Accompanied by Zhang Fei's voice.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..."

The eight-foot-long snake spear has been swung out, the wave of energy is overwhelming, and the force is majestic——

...

...

At the foot of Dingjun Mountain, the southern camp of the Wei army, inside a military tent.

Here is a chime clock...

Cao Cao was striking the chimes with great interest, making loud and resonant sounds.

While percussing, sing softly.

"The old man is still in trouble, but his ambition is to reach a thousand miles; the martyr is in his old age, and his ambition is endless——"

Jia Xu, Zhang Ji, Li Miao, and Ma Di were all in the military tent, but none of them uttered a word...

At this time...

Xia Houyuan hurriedly ran over, "Brother... Over at Dongzhai, our army's 60,000 reinforcements have arrived. According to reports from the scouts, a battle between our soldiers and the bandits is about to break out. The battle situation is rotten, and both sides have suffered heavy losses——"

This is the latest information and the most urgent information...

However, this information did not cause Cao Cao's emotional fluctuations at all.

"The period of growth and shrinkage is not only in heaven; the blessing of nourishing happiness can lead to eternal life. Fortunately, even, singing to celebrate one's aspirations..."

Until he recited the entire song, Cao Cao did not respond to Xia Houyuan.

Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Your Majesty's courage is still the same as when he was young. He is worthy of being a martyr in his old age. He is full of ambition... However, Your Majesty has this courage, but we are all mortals... Your Majesty did not say a word, but we were all in our hearts." Seven ups and eight downs.”

"Haha..." Cao Cao smiled, "Wen He, you are the only one who can speak..."

After chanting this sentence, Cao Cao finally turned his head to Xia Houyuan, "A fight started?"

"Yes!"

"How many people are left in Nanzhai?"

"Five thousand!"

Following Xia Houyuan's answer, Cao Cao slowly repeated in deep thought, "Five thousand...five thousand...haha, there are five thousand people left behind, no more, no less, enough to be used as bait to lure the big-eared thief into the game——"

Although Cao Cao's voice was slow, it inexplicably gave people an aura of confidence. Perhaps...it was also because his confidence infected everyone here.

Then, "Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed, as confident as ever.

But at this moment.

"Report——"

A voice came out, "Sichuan general Yan Yan led thousands of people to attack from Dingjun Mountain. Each person held a torch and strong fire oil. They were...burning the deer...deer...antlers outside Nanzhai——"

call…

Following this voice, everyone raised their heads, and everyone's expressions were lifted.

correct…

now it's right!

King Wei's guesses, deductions, and predictions were all correct!
The fish is about to take the bait——
