Chapter 981 Animals are ferocious in Dangshan

Liu Qi was a good boy, so he almost became the nephew of Liu Bei. But Wen Pin was an old ginger, and the one who was absolutely loyal to Liu Biao, so Liu Bei's final conspiracy failed.

Not long after occupying Jiangxia, Liu Qi handed a confession to King Pingxi on behalf of the 100,000 soldiers and 6 million people of Jingzhou to King Pingxi. In fact, whether Liu Qi handed over this confession or not, Jingzhou had fallen into Zhao Xing's hands except Jiangxia County. However, Liu Qi took the initiative to throw this confession, which was an attitude towards the people of the world, and it was equivalent to slapping Liu Bei hard.

Now Gan Ning has led 40,000 Yizhou troops down the Yangtze River and arrived in Jiangling, garrisoning the army in Jiangling. As long as Yangzhou has any actions against Jiangxia, Gan Ning will immediately lead the army eastward to support. But then again, now that Yangzhou is attacked by Jiangdong, it is difficult to withdraw large-scale troops to counterattack Jiangxia, unless Zhuge Kongming really has the ability to sprinkle beans and become soldiers.

Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Taishi Ci, who were besieging Xuchang, received a handwritten order from Zhao Xing, and he only surrounded Xuchang without attacking him. It seemed that he was waiting for Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the city to take the initiative to offer conditions and send the emperor back to Luoyang.

If Cao Cao and Liu Bei personally sent the emperor back to Luoyang, it would be like slapping themselves in front of the whole world, and they would no longer be qualified to compete with Zhao Xing for anything in the future. After all, the emperor was the Xuchang they escorted, but now they are coerced to return to Luoyang again. This is equivalent to going back on his word, more like selling his owner for honor.

Now that the emperor of Liu returns to Luoyang, there can only be one ending - abdicating to Zhao Xing! Although Zhao Xing promised in front of the world that he would not kill the descendants of the Liu royal family, if the emperor was robbed of his position, he would not be happy in the future. He would be nothing more than just a waste of life to die.

I don’t know where Zhao Xing came from, so I am sure that Cao Cao and Liu Bei will eventually slap their faces in front of the world, rather than lit a fire in Xuchang City in front of the world, and accompany the emperor to gain eternal life in the fire.

In order to break the last few thoughts of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Zhang Liao finally launched a fierce attack on Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan's troops near Dangshan.

Now Zhang Liao has five troops in his hands, including the Dragon Cavalry, the Xiong Ju Army, the Flying Tiger Army, the Canglang Army and the Qingyu Army, with a total of more than 130,000 people. What is even more jealous is that since the end of the Gaonu War, the Flying Tiger Canglang Army, which has not fought together for many years, has appeared in Yuzhou at the same time.

Now Zhang Liao, the beauty and smugness in his heart, would not mention it. He organized the Xiong Ju Army and the Canglang Army into one, led by himself, specifically to deal with Xiahou Yuan's troops; organized the Flying Tiger Army and the Dragon Cavalry Army into another, led by Dian Wei, and Pang Tong served as the military advisor, focusing on dealing with Zhang Fei's troops. As for the Qing Yu Army, who had never appeared, it was known to a very few people, and they still didn't know where they were hidden.

The name of Dangshan is derived from the character Dang in Mangdang Mountain. During the Yanhuang period, the Dangtang family of Mangdang Mountain in Henan entered the Dangshan area in Yuzhou and was famous for digging stones. Therefore, Dangshan became a famous quarry in ancient times. Huangdi once visited Dangshan for inspection. During the reign of Emperor Wu, a scholar Dangluci was a student of Shenpei. Because of the profound knowledge of Dangluci, he was deeply favored by Emperor Wu of Han and was named the prefect of Donghai. Dangtang family moved to Donghai with Dangluci.

Dangshan is located at the junction of Yuzhou and the three prefectures of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, so there is no need to say that it has important geographical advantages. Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Fei were originally north of Dangshan and south of Dangshan, blocking the way Zhang Liao's troops advanced westward. Now they are split and annihilated by Zhang Liao, whose troops have increased dramatically.

Zhang Liao also had a very interesting grouping of the two units, making the Dragon and Tiger (Dragon Cavalry and Flying Tiger Army) and the Bear Wolf (Bear and Canglang Army) a little bit of animal ferocious smell. Because the cavalry in his hands were very abundant, the Dragon and Cavalry took on the role of infantry this time, and followed behind the old cavalry of the Flying Tiger Army, which bullied Zhang Fei. The overall combat power of the Bear Wolf was not inferior to that of the Dragon and Tiger. The Wolf attacked Xiahou Yuan's troops on both wings, and the Bear launched a fatal blow in the middle.

Zhang Liao faced Xiahou Yuan, Dian Wei faced Meng Zhang Fei, and followed Pang Tong and Xu Shu, so this battle that took place near Dangshan has attracted many people's attention since now.

Xiahou Yuan still has 50,000 troops, including 5,000 tigers and leopard cavalry. In terms of military strength, there is not much difference between the 60,000 bear and wolf formation, but if we compete for combat strength and equipment, we will be at a disadvantage. What's even more serious is that the news that Xuchang is surrounded is no longer a secret, and it is known to everyone in the world. This is a serious blow to the morale of the Xiahou Army. Without support and low morale, the troops at an absolute disadvantage in all aspects are facing the current morale of the Jin State Infantry and Cavalry Alliance. The result of the battle was already destined before it began.

In desperation, Xiahou Yuan really asked Zhang Liao to challenge him like the dead Xiahou Dun, in order to boost the morale of the army. Zhang Liao, who had been holding on for a long time, took over Xiahou Yuan's invitation without hesitation, fought with Xiahou Yuan for 150 rounds in front of the two armies, and finally knocked Xiahou Yuan down with the yellow dragon hook sickle and captured him alive in front of the formation.

Then, the officers and soldiers of Jin, who were overwhelmed with bears and wolves, rushed into Xiahou Yuan's army and surrounded and annihilated them with the wind swept away the remaining clouds.

The other army led by Dian Wei, which was like a dragon and a tiger, fought smoothly at the beginning after fighting Zhang Fei's 40,000 troops, and the situation was very similar to that of the other army. In the middle of the period, Zhang Fei was furious and proposed to fight with Dian Wei. Dian Wei, who had never been afraid of anyone, naturally took it.

Zhang Fei was indeed as fierce as he was when he fought with Zhao Xing on the bank of the Yellow River. He was not at all inferior in his close fight with Dian Wei. Zhang Fei rode a war horse more flexible than Dian Wei's bison, but Dian Wei's bison was more endurance than the war horse, so the two fierce generals fought for two hundred rounds, and it was not considered as if Zhang Fei's war horse was exhausted to death.

Like Zhao Xing, Dian Wei still did not take advantage of Zhang Fei's death and then put aside his attacks, but let Zhang Fei return to his own formation. They are all top generals. Although everyone is not in the same camp, everyone will have a mentality of mutual appreciation.

After Zhang Fei returned to the formation, he immediately led the remaining more than 20,000 soldiers to turn south and head straight for Shouchun, which was equivalent to making way for Dangshan.

When he knew that continuing to fight was just a meaningless sacrifice, Zhang Fei resolutely chose to give up and give in. Perhaps he had already understood the general trend of the world in his heart?

The Battle of Dangshan ended, and the Qing Yu army, which Zhang Liao had been hiding, has not taken action until now, which made the soldiers of the Qing Yu army extremely depressed.
