The last three kingdoms

Chapter 935

At this moment, the cannons on the Xidie Mountain rang out repeatedly, and the flags were all over the field. Countless Shu soldiers came out from behind the mountain.

Xie Xi was startled suddenly. He didn't expect that there really was an ambush from the Shu army. Judging from the posture, there were quite a few of them. Xie Xi ordered the Jin army to retreat slightly. Although he encountered an ambush, he didn't panic too much. After all, Sima Jun's army is behind him, and he will soon be able to provide him with strong support. All Xie Xie can do now is to hold his ground and prevent the Shu army from breaking the formation of the Jin army.

Sima Jun, who was only a few miles away from the Qianfeng Battalion, also saw the abnormal situation in front of him. He was slightly surprised, but immediately overjoyed. During the Battle of Xindu, Sima Jun had been seeking a decisive battle with the Shu army. It would be best if the outcome is determined after a single battle, but Liu Yin’s decisive withdrawal made his hopes come to naught in the end. This time, he thought he was just biting a small fish, but he didn’t expect to be able to catch it later. This was the opportunity Sima Jun had been waiting for for a big fish to come out. He immediately ordered the Jin army to press forward across the board and fight the Shu army at Xidie Mountain.

As for whether there was an ambush ahead, Sima Jun didn't think about it. Isn't it just a daydream if he wants to surround the [-] Jin army with such a small force of the Shu army?

Sima Jun was afraid that the front line would be lost, the Shu army would not be able to eat his army, but if it could eat up his vanguard battalion, it would be more than enough, so Sima Jun immediately swung his army forward to join the Xie line's soldiers and horses However, as long as the Jin army is huddled together, it will be a monolith. No matter how the Shu army attacks, if they want to break through the Jin army's defense line, they will try to reach the sky.

Xie Xi was retreating in an orderly manner, while Sima Jun sped up his speed and rushed forward. The Jin soldiers and horses quickly merged into one, and the [-] troops gathered in one place, their momentum was huge.

Sima Jun looked at the Shu army in the direction of Xidie Mountain with mocking eyes, and laughed to everyone around him: "The people of Shu are overthinking their capabilities, mayflies shake trees, and want to ambush us here, but this king wants to see , does Liu Yin have such a big appetite?"

All the generals followed suit, now the Jin army has [-] soldiers, this is their greatest confidence, all the generals want to fight for the first victory, they all asked Sima Jun for orders to fight, and the Shu army will fight to the death.

Sima Jun looked around for a while, and said: "General Xie's pursuit of this battle is indispensable. This king has the beauty of an adult. This is the first achievement in defeating the Shu army. Let Xie Future take it."

Xie is overjoyed, with Sima Jun's strong support, no matter how many Shu troops there are, Xie is not afraid at all, all the generals have asked for a fight, Xie is a little unhappy, isn't it clear that he wants to take credit, fortunately Sima Jun He made the decision for him and did not let him lose his first contribution. Xie Xie thanked Sima Jun, and immediately mobilized the troops in his headquarters, preparing to launch a counterattack against the Shu army.

Although it was said that the Shu army rushed out in a big way, they did not take the initiative to attack the Jin army. Instead, they lined up on the mountain and put on a defensive posture. So he didn't dare to fight anymore, which further fueled his arrogance, and he led his army to rush forward.

The Shu army was condescending and had a clear advantage in terrain. When they saw the Jin army launching an attack, they first greeted with a wave of bows and arrows, and the arrows rained down, covering the entire Xidie Mountain.

The Jin army was attacking from their backs. Fortunately, the mountains of Xidie Mountain were relatively gentle, and the cavalry troops of the Xie Department could still attack. If the mountains were steeper, then he could only abandon his horse and fight on foot.

Even so, the dense rain of arrows from the Shu army still caused a lot of damage to the Jin army. The Jin army fought hard, trying to rely on the speed of the cavalry to rush up the hillside, but the rain of arrows made the Jin soldiers rushing in front turn their backs. , with many casualties.

However, Xie Xie did not give up the idea of ​​attacking because of such a small setback. He continued to command the cavalry of the Jin army to launch a powerful offensive. If one person fell in front, he would immediately send two more people to participate in the attack. , Xie Department is trying to use this powerful offensive to tear apart the defense line of the Shu army.

Sima Jun's expression was very leisurely. Although the Shu army resisted tenaciously, he believed that this resistance would not last long. Under the superior strength of the Jin army, any stubborn resistance would be futile, as long as a certain amount of time is given to solve the problem , There is no problem at all in taking down Xidie Mountain.

Just when Sima Jun was complacent and in a good mood, a Jin soldier hurried up to him and said in a panic, "Your Majesty, the big thing... the big thing is not good..."

Sima Jun's face darkened, and he asked, "Why are you panicking?"

The Jin soldier turned around and pointed to Dongping Mountain behind him, and said, "My lord, there are a lot of traces of the Shu army..."

Sima Jun was taken aback in horror, this time he was no longer calm, Dongping Mountain was the way they came, if the Shu army appeared there, it would prove that they were surrounded by the Shu army. Jun's appetite is indeed so great that he wants to swallow his 8 horses in one gulp.

"General Chen, quickly take ten thousand cavalry to Dongping Mountain to see what's going on?" Sima Jun turned around and told Chen Yuandao.

Chen Yuan immediately took orders and led [-] cavalry to go east.

The situation of Dongping Mountain was basically the same as that of Xidie Mountain. The Shu army suddenly came out and occupied Dongping Mountain, and at the same time cut off the retreat of the Jin army.

Chen Yuan tried to launch an attack on the Shu army's position, but the Shu army's defense was very tight. Chen Yuan couldn't get a chance, but lost a lot of troops. Seeing that he couldn't take Dongping Mountain, Chen Yuan also I had no choice but to go back and tell Sima Jun.

Ambushes of the Shu army appeared on both sides, and the [-] troops of the Jin army were blocked between the narrow strip of Dongping Mountain and Xidie Mountain. Obviously, this was an act that the Shu army had planned for a long time. After retreating all the way, the Jin army brigade was introduced here.

Sima Jun's expression became serious. Originally, he had always sneered at the Shu army's ambush, thinking that the Shu army would be powerless even if they wanted to. Liu Yin must not have such a big appetite to eat his [-] troops.But judging from the current situation, Liu Yin is really arrogant and bold, and really wants to swallow him up.

Now that Liu Yin was intent on killing, Sima Jun didn't dare to be careless. Now that the Jin army was trapped by the Shu army, the situation suddenly became dangerous, and Xie Xi's attack on Xidie Mountain failed. Obtaining the results of the battle and retreating back after defeat, this made the Jin army's situation extremely difficult.

All the generals' gazes were all cast on Sima Jun, waiting for him to give an order.

Sima Jun looked stern, pointed his whip to the south, and said in the most resolute tone: "Break out to the south!"
