Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 392 Conquering Hanzhong (2)

After that battle, Li Song stood still, and the two sides refused to fight for more than [-] days. When everyone was puzzled, Li Song suddenly sent an order to retreat.

Everyone was unclear, so Jia Xu asked: "We haven't seen the strength of the enemy yet, why did the Lord suddenly retreat like this?"

Li Song has watched Romance of the Three Kingdoms, although he said that he has not read much Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Jia Xu also asked Cao Cao the same way in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, how did Cao Cao answer.

Oh!right!Li Song answered in this way, "I expect the bandits to prepare their troops every day, and our army is in a hurry to win. I use the pretext of retreating to make the bandits slack and unprepared, and then divide the Qing cavalry to copy them, and the bandits will surely be defeated. "

Jia Xu gave a small compliment: "The prime minister's magic is unfathomable."

People in the world say that high places are unbearably cold, but everyone wants to stand on the highest place. It should be because standing on the highest place can see different scenery.

"The more fanfare the retreat of our army, the better. Only by letting the enemy know can our army succeed in a surprise attack." Li Song added.

"No! I understand how to do it!" Jia Xu bowed and left in a hurry. He quickly spread the news that the army had pulled out the camp and retreated, for fear that others would not know.

"Zhongkang! Order someone to call me Zhang He and Yu Jin." Li Song said to Xu Chu beside him.

"Promise!" Xu Chu clasped his fists in salute, took the order and went out of the camp, and ordered the guards outside the tent to call for Zhang He and Yu Jin, and turned back inside after giving the order.

"Greetings, my lord!" Zhang He and Yu Jin knelt down on one knee, cupping their fists and saluting when they were called into the tent.

"Get up!" Li Song said, the two got up as promised, and stood aside, waiting for orders.

"Let the two of you divide the troops into two groups, and each lead three thousand light cavalry, take the small road to copy Yangping Pass, and copy the enemy's rear." Li Song ordered.

"Promise!" The two of them clasped their fists together and saluted in response, Li Song waved his hands, the two of them exited the camp, ordered three thousand light cavalry each, and divided the troops into two groups to raid the enemy's rear.

"Pass down the order! Pull out the camp immediately! Withdraw the army!" Li Song led the army to pull out the camp, Yang Ang heard Li Bing's retreat, such a huge momentum, it's no wonder he didn't know it.

"The enemy's retreat this time! It's a golden opportunity! We should take advantage of the momentum and pursue it. Don't miss this opportunity." Yang Ang asked Yang Ren to discuss and pursue the victory.

Yang Ren frowned, feeling something was wrong. Besides, shouldn't this retreat be done quietly?To avoid being discovered by the other party, send troops to chase after him. I'm afraid people in the world will not know what happened.

Then he said to Yang Ang: "Li Song has always had a lot of tricks, I don't think he should chase him until he finds out the truth."

Yang Ang said: "If you want to go, I will go by myself. I wanted to share your credit, but you are timid here. It seems that I should make this great contribution."

Seeing that Yang Ang didn't listen to his advice, Yang Ren stomped his feet angrily. Yang Ang raised all the troops and horses of the five villages to advance, leaving only a few soldiers to guard the village.

"Send the order! Rest on the spot! After the fog clears, it will not be too late to catch up." On that day, the fog was thick and the opposite side did not meet each other. Yang Angjun walked halfway, unable to continue marching, so he stayed in place.

After Zhang Yun's army crossed the mountain, they saw heavy fog hanging in the sky, and heard people talking and horses neighing. Fearing an ambush, they hurriedly urged them to move, and walked to Yang Ang's stronghold by mistake in the thick fog.

"General, there seems to be a camp in the fog in front of you." A soldier beside Zhang He stretched out his hand and pointed at the camp that was looming in the fog.

Zhang He looked, and sure enough there was a camp looming in the thick fog ahead, Zhang He was overjoyed, seeing a camp here, it must be an enemy camp.

"Boys! It's time to make contributions, follow me to kill." Zhang Xi said, leading the horse, followed by three thousand Qingqi.

"Did you hear anything?"

"It sounds like the sound of hooves."

"I'm afraid the general is coming back, open the door to greet him quickly." The sergeant guarding the village heard the sound of horseshoes, and only said that Yang Ang's soldiers had returned, and opened the door to greet him.

"Haha! God helped me too!" Not far from the camp, Zhang Yun suddenly saw the enemy's camp wide open. He was overjoyed, and the leaders rushed in, only to find out that it was an empty camp.

"Quick! Get the torches quickly and burn these camps!" Zhang Yun ordered people to set fire to the camps, and all the soldiers from the five villages abandoned the camps and left, and the smoke filled the air for a while.

When the fog cleared, Yang Ren led the troops to rescue him, and after several battles with Zhang Yun, there was a cry of killing from behind, and looking back, it turned out that Yu Jin led the troops to kill.

Seeing that he was no match, Yang Ren could only die if he kept running like this, so he fought his way back to Nanzheng.

Yang Ang chased him all the way, but he didn't find any trace of the enemy. He was afraid that he had fallen for the enemy's trick, so he immediately turned his horse's head and said to the left and right: "Hurry back to the camp!"

When Yang Ang led the troops back, he found that Zhang Yun and Yu Jin had already occupied the fence. Behind them, Li Song's army rushed up and attacked twice. There was no way around. , was killed by Zhang He.The defeated soldiers returned to Yangping Pass to see Zhang Wei.

"Why are you the only one who came back and are still in such a mess, where is Yang Ang?" Seeing that Yang Ren was injured, Zhang Wei was in a panic!Hastily asked why.

"We fell into Li Song's trick! Yang Ang died in battle! I escaped by fighting to the death, otherwise, I would have been decapitated and the battalion had been lost. What should we do next?" Yang Ren said.

"The two of you set up camp outside the pass and took away most of the troops. There are not many soldiers in the pass. If Li Song's army arrives, they will be powerless to stop them. I think it is better to abandon Yangping Pass and go back to see the lord before making a decision." Zhang Guardian.

It was because of Yang and Ren's mistakes that they had no choice but to abandon Yangping Pass. The responsibility rested on them. As Zhang Lu's younger brother, Zhang Wei was naturally not afraid of Zhang Lu's blame.

"Okay! This is the end of the matter! The only thing left is to abandon the pass." Yang Rendao, the two abandoned the pass in the middle of the night and went back to Hanning to see Zhang Lu.

Li Song then captured Yangping Pass and merged the villages. Zhang Wei and Yang Ren returned to Zhang Lu. Before Zhang Lu could ask, Zhang Wei said first, "Brother, it's because the second general lost the pass, so he can't keep the pass. I just abandoned the pass and fled back, and I asked my brother to punish me."

Immediately throw the pot clean!Zhang Lu was furious, and shouted: "Come on! Yang Ren lost the pass and caused Yangping Pass to fall. He should be punished for the crime. He should be pushed out and beheaded." Immediately, several soldiers rushed in, took Yang Ren, and demanded Push it out and chop it up.

Yang Ren turned pale with shock, and shouted: "Your Majesty, you have been wronged! This matter does not matter to me, it is all because of Yang Ang. I once advised Yang Ang not to chase after Li Bing, but he refused to listen, so there was a failure."

"I, Yang Ren, would like to lead an army to challenge again. I will behead Li Song and present it to the lord. If I lose, I will be willing to serve as a military order."

"Slow!" Zhang Lu called back the sergeant who had arrived at the gate. Yang Ren let out a sigh of relief. He was already sweating profusely. Zhang Lu ordered someone to take the military order and let Yang Ren sign it. Yang Ren mounted his horse and led [-] troops to leave Nanzheng stronghold.
