Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 451 Zhang Lu's defeat in Hanzhong
I saw Yang Ang waving the command flag left and right, signaling the formation of the Hanzhong army.

I saw a total of 1 people from the Hanzhong Army participating in the formation. No 100 people formed a small square formation, ten small square formations formed a medium-sized square formation, and ten medium-sized square formations formed a large square formation. Surround the square array inside to form an array within an array.

This is called "the formation in the formation". Sun Bin, the founder of this formation, believes that the formation should be "thin in the middle and thick in the square", that is to say, there are fewer troops in the center of the formation and more troops around it.There are few troops in the middle, so you can bluff.There are many troops around, which can better defend against enemy attacks. The phalanx is a formation with a relatively balanced offense and defense.General generals will use this basic formation.

"Pfft!"

When Zhang Ren saw that the Hanzhong Army had set up a phalanx, he couldn't help laughing, and said: "The Hanzhong Army really has no one. Although this formation is practical, it is suitable for defense, but if you use this formation If the middle formation comes to fight, it is tantamount to courting death!"

"Could it be that the general has a way to break the formation?"

Yan Yan asked.

"Of course, the defensive power around the formation is extremely strong, but the defensive power of the command center in the formation is extremely weak. As long as you break into the formation and break through from the inside out, the formation will be broken with one blow!"

Zhang Ren answered.

"Old general, are you willing to go and break the formation?"

Zhang Ren looked at Yan Yan and asked.

"I can't ask for it!"

Yan Yan bowed his hands to Zhang Renyi, and ordered five thousand soldiers and horses, ready to break the formation.

On the other hand, Yang Ang shouted: "The formations rely on the defensive power outside, you all stand up to me, and you must not let them rush into the formation!"

"Follow me!"

Yan Yan let out a loud roar, and with his broadsword tightly in his hand, he rushed towards the Hanzhong army.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here!"

Yan Yan roared angrily, looked at the hundreds of people in front of him, and roared.

"kill!"

The Hanzhong army in front of Yan Yan roared in unison, stabbing at Yan Yan with the spear in his hand.

"court death!"

Yan Yan blew on his half-white beard, swiped a big knife in his hand, cut off dozens of gun barrels, and then rushed into the small phalanx with a charge of the horse.

"Pfft! Kacha!"

The long knife in Yan Yan's hand swung left and right, beheading the Hanzhong army continuously.

And the hundreds of cavalry behind Yan Yan also followed Yan Yan and killed the enemy together with Yan Yan.

Three attacks, five divisions and two divisions, a small phalanx of the Hanzhong Army was wiped out by Yan Yan.

But just as Yan Yan broke through a small phalanx, the next small phalanx immediately blocked his way.

"Hehe, there are people who are not afraid of death!"

Yan Yan blew his beard and stared, and the long knife in his hand kept cutting out, one after another Hanzhong army fell under Yan Yan's knife.

And Zhang Ren kept waving the command flag in the back, pointing Yan Yan in the right direction, lest Yan Yan rush in the wrong direction.

On the other side, Yang Ang continued to direct the phalanx to stop Yan Yan, trying to block Yan Yan's attack.

If you want to break through the formation, you must not only know the weaknesses of the formation, but also have an extremely brave general who can take the lead and enter the middle of the enemy formation.

Although Yan Yan is not young, he is old and strong. Among the generals who are famous for their bravery in Yizhou, Yan Yan's reputation is even higher than that of Zhang Ren.

"Wow!"

With a violent cry, Yan Yan beheaded more than twenty people in a row, and was about to rush into the formation.

"Stop him quickly!"

Yang Ang kept waving the command flag, asking the left and right soldiers to step forward to intercept Yan Yan.

I saw Yan Yan yelling loudly: "Give me a conical formation to stop the Hanzhong army on the left and right, and I will kill the generals of the enemy formation!"

The soldiers and horses behind Yan Yan immediately formed a conical formation to resist the Hanzhong army on the left and right, while Yan Yan took the lead and charged towards Yang Ang's square formation.

"Little thief! This old man is here to take your life!"

Yan Yan dashed left and right, approaching Yang Ang continuously.

"This old pawn really has some courage!"

Seeing Yan Yan coming towards him, Yang Ang quickly discarded the command flag in his hand and wanted to escape.

"Little thief, where are you going!"

Yan Yan shouted violently, pulled the reins of the horse, and the horse leaped up from under his crotch, and rushed towards Yang Ang.

"Ah, no!"

Seeing Yan Yan flying towards him desperately, Yang Ang raised his left hand hastily, but how could a flesh and blood body resist the precious sword in Yan Yan's hand.

Yan Yan raised the saber in his hand and cut Yang Ang under the horse.Then he killed the Hanzhong army next to Yang Ang.

Yang Ang's position is the eye of the formation. Now that Yang Ang died, the eye of the formation was broken, and the formation was broken in an instant.

"The enemy's formation has been broken, soldiers, fight the enemy bravely!"

There were blood beads on Yan Yan's face, and the long knife in his hand kept swinging, beheading the Hanzhong army.

But the formation of the Hanzhong army was broken, and it was in a state of chaos for a while, all scattered like birds and beasts, and ran out.

And Yan Yan did not chase after these defeated soldiers, but set his sights on Zhang Lu.

"Zhang Lu, where are you going?"

Yan Yan rode his horse and wielded his saber, and went straight to Zhang Lu.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

Zhang Lu lost two battles in a row, and the morale of the Hanzhong army was declining. How could they even think about resisting Zhang Renjun? After hearing Zhang Lu's order to retreat, they all followed Zhang Lu and retreated towards the camp as if they heard the sound of heaven.

Zhang Ren led the army to chase and kill for dozens of miles, and then Ming Jin withdrew his troops.

That night, Yan Yan said to Zhang Ren: "The general is really good at strategizing, and there is no one in the Hanzhong army who is proficient in formation!"

"Hehe, Zhang Lu is from the Five Dou Rice Sect. Everyone in the world calls him a rice thief. How can anyone go and join him! Although not all the people around him are wine bags and rice bags. But how can there be any capable people and strangers? to him!"

Zhang Ren said with a smile.

"However, Zhang Lu was defeated by our army today, how could he be reconciled, I expect that he will come to rob the camp tonight, we still need to make more preparations!"

Zhang Ren spoke again.

After Zhang Ren finished speaking, Yan Yan replied: "Don't worry, general, I have ordered the soldiers to sleep with Jia. Tonight, Wu Yi and I will lead the army to lie in ambush outside the camp. If Zhang Lu dares to come, he will surely come." Back!"

"Well, you must be more careful tonight. If Zhang Lu is defeated tonight, he will definitely withdraw his troops and return to Hanzhong. He will not dare to face me in Yizhou in a short time!"

Sure enough, as Zhang Ren expected, Zhang Lu ordered his general Gao Han to lead [-] soldiers and horses to go to Zhang Ren's barracks to rob the camp that night. However, Zhang Ren had already prepared and lost thousands of soldiers and horses.

In the next half month, Zhang Lu and Zhang Ren fought dozens of small battles, but they were all defeated by Zhang Ren. Seeing that Zhang Lu could not win against Zhang Ren, Zhang Lu could only withdraw his troops and return to Hanzhong, waiting for an opportunity.

When Zhang Ren saw that Zhang Lu withdrew his troops, he also left Yang Huai and Gao Pei in charge of Jiameng Pass, and he withdrew his troops to Chengdu. The victory report was first sent to Liu Zhang in Chengdu.
