Chapter 8: The initial battle in Hanzhong is a crisis of rising power! (I)(1/2)
The capture of Huayang Pass was immediately reached by Zhang Yi and Ning Sui, but when they learned that Zhong Hui had really led an army of 100,000, his face changed drastically.
"What you say is true?"
"Zhong Hui personally led a 50,000 or 60,000 troops in Luogu. This matter is absolutely true, General!"
The soldier did not dare to hide anything, and told a story about Huayang Pass. It turned out that after Luxun's old subordinates were taken down in Huayang Pass, hundreds of people fled to the deep mountains along the way!
Zhong Hui brought men from Guanzhong in Huayang to be civil servants and helped transport food and grass together.
It was from a civilian that they transported grain in two groups and prepared rations for 100,000 people!
"One hundred thousand people!"
Such a large army made Zhang Yi quite afraid.
Ning Sui also frowned and said
"The suspicious soldiers we have arranged..."
After the two of them finished speaking, they began to calculate in their hearts!
‘It has been two days since Zhong Hui conquered Huayang Pass’
‘The Zhonghui army cannot be very fast, and it is in the valley, and it can walk up to thirty miles a day!’
It should take about three days to get out of Huayang Pass to Xingshi, and it is impossible for a large army to arrive together. If you come out from Luogu, you will have up to thousands of soldiers at a time!
With the strength of Zhao Guang and Li Gao, they might be able to repel an attack, but when Zhong Hui's central army came, they could not resist it!
Moreover, there are also large troops in Baoxie Valley, and the entrance of Baoxie Valley can directly reach Nanzheng in Hanzhong!
However, after the scout found out that Zhong Hui's attack, Zhang Yi and Ning Sui were already in charge to the Nanzheng line!
With two people in charge, Nangukou will definitely be blocked!
But the problem is that they are in Nanzheng, so they cannot support Xingshi, Golden and other places!
"If you want to snipe the enemy in Luogu, you must have reinforcements from the North King!"
Ning Sui disagrees
"If there were thousands of Wei soldiers in Ziwu Valley, it would be useless to rely solely on the Northern King!"
Yes, there are also Wei soldiers in Ziwu Valley!
Zhang Yi still has a thinking inertia and is thinking about referring to Wang Ping's strategy of sniping Cao Shuang. Now he thinks about it, it really doesn't work.
"Now that the two armies of Zhonghui are about to leave the valley, Chenggu (Lecheng) must be guarded by a general to support Xingshi and golden defense!"
Lecheng is in full swing, gold is becoming a horn, and with a general guarding it, Zhong Hui's army cannot be captured immediately when it comes!
"That's because..."
Before Zhang Yi could finish speaking, Ning Sui rushed to say
"I will preside over the defense of Chenggu, and General Cheqi is in charge of Nanzheng, Mianyang (Seoul)!"
After all, Zhang Yi is old and running back and forth is not realistic. Ning Sui is the best place to take on this task!
As for Nanzheng, the troops on the front line of Seoul are not able to snipe the enemy, and the King of Northern Land must be invited to join Yang'an Pass immediately!
"If this is the case, please ask the King of Northern Earth to take charge of Yang'an Pass and immediately notify the general and ask him to return to Hanzhong!"
After the two agreed, they immediately sent a letter to inform Liu Chen.
What they didn't know was that a golden war was taking place at this moment!
When Zhong Hui set out, the prefect of Wei Xing, Liu Qin, also led 5,000 troops from Ziwu Valley!
He didn't need too much baggage, so he marched faster than Zhong Hui. When Zhong Hui arrived at Huayang Pass, Liu Qin had already left the valley!
The exit of Ziwu Valley is near the Golden Siege. When Liu Qin came out of the valley, he met Liu Yin's troops!
"Kill!"
In the grass, several waves of Shu soldiers rushed out, and Liu Qinsheng was caught off guard!
"Enemy attacks, enemy attacks!"
The vanguard lost to Liu Yin and retreated immediately. Liu Yin personally led the army to follow him!
It turned out that a few days ago, Liu Yin could explore the enemy situation in Ziwu Valley. He shrank his troops and lie in ambush at the entrance of the valley, waiting for Liu Qin to come!
But Liu Yin chased after him for a while and found the problem
‘When the enemy retreated, the formation was not messy?’
He thought about it and knew the reason
‘Bah, it must be Wei Gou who wants to make money!’
Seeing Liu Yin stop, his eldest son Liu Chong immediately asked
"Why don't you chase after me?"
Liu Yin cursed angrily as soon as he heard this
"Are you blind? Can't you see the enemy formation?"
Liu Chong was scolded by Liu Yin and quickly looked at the enemy. Only then did he realize it.
"The enemy had expected that we would be ambushed here!"
"Sir, why don't we retreat to the gold!"
"Why are you so timid? You don't look like Nai Gong at all. If you don't even know the depth of the enemy, how can you formulate follow-up strategies?"
"Now that you know that the enemy is in trouble, just deal with it carefully!"
Liu Yin was also fierce, and he actually led hundreds of people to investigate the truth first!
However, when Liu Qin heard that the vanguard was frustrated, he immediately buried his troops on both sides of the fork in the valley, while he himself stayed at the fork in the valley!
But he waited for no enemy to come, and he was anxious
‘Can my ambush be seen through by the people of Shu?’
Just when Liu Qin was suspicious, his subordinates suddenly shouted
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that his subordinates had been shot to death by an arrow, but the enemy was not seen before and after. Liu Qin looked up in shock and saw the "Han" flag fluttering!
‘The enemy did not go through the main road and came over the mountains!!!’
"Form a formation, form a formation!"
After all, Liu Qin was a long-time general. Under his command, all his troops held shields and soon the enemy's attack came to an end. Liu Qin took advantage of this gap and finally saw the enemy's face clearly.
‘No wonder, it was the veteran Liu Yin!’
However, since I came over mountains and rivers, there must be not many people!
Liu Qin also had an ambush above the valley. He was about to order his subordinates to attack, but Liu Yin had already jumped to the other side and took off his pants and slapped them all!
Liu Qin felt a big deal, but just as he was about to retreat, water floated in the air!
The strong wind in the valley here actually dispelled Liu Yin's urine, nourishing Wei Jun!
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Kill the enemy with a bow! Kill the enemy with a bow!"
However, what he did not expect was that Liu Yin's position just exceeded the limit of shooting, and Liu Qin could only watch Liu Yin...
After Liu Yin finished peeing, he laughed three times and said to Liu Qin.
"Hahaha! Wei Gou, Nai Gong's urine is very nourishing, it's cheap for you!"
Liu Qin's face turned red with anger, his eyes wide open, and he drew his sword and slashed at the stone on one side.
"The old dog bullies me!!!"
But Liu Yin didn't give Liu Qin a chance at all, and he quickly retreated after urinating!
Just as Liu Yin left, Liu Qin's ambush ran to Liu Yin's position!
This made Liu Qin so angry that he was furious.
"Waste, why are you acting so slowly?"
Even if they scolded, things still had to be done. Liu Qin asked the soldiers on both sides of the valley to open the way first, but when they walked out of the valley, they saw that Liu Yin's troops were already waiting in line!
Liu Qin was in a state of anger and couldn't bear it, so he took the lead in launching an attack!
"My sons, follow me to kill the enemy!"
"Destroy Shu Dog!"
"Kill!"
Liu Qin, who was in a state of anger, personally led his troops into the enemy formation. He was indeed brave. After a rush, the Shu army took the initiative to avoid him!
Soon he saw the military flag of Liu Yin headquarters. He was excited and quickly ordered it.
"The old dog is right in front of you, and the boys follow me to kill the enemy!"
