Chapter 777: Ambush, encountering ambush again (first update)

The next day.

Whether it was the Chu army or the Shu army, they all carried out the energy and slaughtered pigs and sheep, and began to nourish the soldiers.

The Chu army went deep into Shu, and the supply was insufficient.

All kinds of meat food were very scarce. Pang Tong dispersed all the treasury in Fuling City and recruited meat and animals around him.

Next night, countless iron pots were piled up in the Chu army camp, with white heat emitting and the meat fragrance spreading.

The soldiers sitting around kept looking into the pot, and were really hungry and swallowing their saliva.

That's right, some of the troops in the Chu army were supplied with meat, such as Koufeng's Pojun camp, which had enough meat esophageal tubes. Just like some elite troops in the army, they were supplied with meat.

But ordinary soldiers do not have one.

Generally, there is only rice and no vegetables. It’s okay in summer, and there are some wild vegetables and so on. But when it comes to winter, it’s really like eating vegetarian food.

Only like this time, before the war, would there be such a sumptuous meal.

The Chu army was actually quite good. When they were in Chu, they were at least a little bit of good luck.

After all, Chu State has strong national strength, and Kou Feng attaches importance to the army.

But the 20,000 surrendered troops from Shu Kingdom that surrendered this time were different. They were basically fine.

There is such a meal that can make you die even if you sacrifice your head and blood.

Many people can't help but have this kind of thought in their hearts.

Anyway, before the war, killing pigs and sheep would definitely be a major event that can replenish the morale of the soldiers and the physical fitness of the soldiers. Of course, although the meat is fragrant, it is full of meat.

But among the 50,000 people, there are actually very few people who won’t get rid of their stomachs.

"Even if I cherish my soldiers, I'm afraid I don't have the ability to get such a sumptuous dinner for the soldiers to eat and use. Not to mention some other generals in Shu Kingdom. They would rather store their money in the warehouse than replenish their physical fitness. The emperor is famous for paying attention to soldiers and fighting with them. This is how the foundation of Chu Kingdom's foundation is laid today."

Meng Da, Fa Zheng and Zhang Song were walking nearby. Meng Da couldn't help but sigh when he smelled the aroma of meat.

"Hehe, so Chu can fight the world. Just as Shu's laws are loose, the army is not strong, and the general does not want to defend against the enemy. He can only be matched by others." Fa Zheng said with a smile.

During these days, Fa Zheng, Zhang Song and Meng Da lived very comfortably.

Meng Da obtained the military position of General Zhonglang and commanded 10,000 troops. Fa Zheng and Zhang Song walked beside Kou Feng, and were in charge of major affairs and their power grew.

It can be said that these three people who were not allowed to be valued under Liu Zhang, the State of Shu, have found their own positions on the State of Chu.

The three of them just came out to get some breath and walk.

In addition, I didn’t feel tired even after chatting with each other. Before I knew it, it was completely dark.

"Two gentlemen, General Meng, General Meng, and General Military Advisor invite three to enter the tent for meals." Until some soldiers came to the door.

"Let's go." Fa Zheng smiled and said.

The group turned around and came to the central army's tent.

At this moment, many people gathered in the central army's tent.

Pang Tong, Ma Su, and some other important generals, plus the newly arrived Fa Zheng, Meng Da and Zhang Song, they seemed very popular.

"Okay, everyone is here. Let's have a meal." Pang Tong saw Meng Da and the other two walking in, laughed. After a while, soldiers walked in with the hot meal.

Each person also has a pot of wine.

"Tonight, the night is cold and the wind is cool. Let's drink a pot of wine to warm your body." Pang Tong said with a smile.

Generally, when marching and fighting, alcohol is prohibited in the army. However, night battles are different. Besides, there are a large number of men in this era.

If you drink a pot of wine, Pang Tong is not afraid of drinking and making trouble.

"Thank you, General." Everyone said with their fists together.

Immediately, Pang Tong and the generals enjoyed a sumptuous dinner. After the dinner, Pang Tong sent the generals away and asked them to go down to restrain the soldiers and began to prepare for the war.

But Fa Zheng and Zhang Song stayed.

"Tonight, I will go out in person. I will take away most of the soldiers, and I will leave them to the two of them." Pang Tong said to Zhang Song and Fa Zheng.

"Don't worry, General, we will act carefully."

Fa Zheng and Zhang Song met and smiled, raised their fists and said. They got along well with Pang Tong during these days. Pang Tong did not have the arrogance of being in a high position, and they did not be proud of their great achievements in the city.

The three of them were all very talented and knowledgeable, and they were ministers in the same palace. They had a good personality. They started to talk like this.

As the night passed slowly, it was just like that.

Until a soldier outside the tent came in and reported: "The time for general is here."

"Okay. Order the army to assemble." Pang Tong suddenly stood up and said.

"No." The soldier responded to the promise and immediately turned around and walked out.

Not long after, Pang Tong called a few personal soldiers and put on light armor. Looking at Fa Zheng, Zhang Song said, "You wait for the two of you to lead 5,000 troops to guard the camp."

"No." Fa Zheng, Zhang Songying said.

After giving the order, Pang Tong walked out without any hesitation. He was tall, his eyes were sharp, and he was very majestic.

"Pang Shiyuan is really a beauty. I am not as good as me." Zhang Song said enviously.

He looks similar to Pang Tong and has a similar figure. However, he does not have the majesty as Pang Tong.

Fa Zheng nodded with a smile, agreeing very much.

In the Daying School, Pang Tong rode a war horse and left 5,000 people to guard the Daying at Fazheng, leading 45,000 troops to the deep mountain path that Kou Feng walked through.

Among them, 30,000 elite troops from Chu State, 15,000 of them belonged to Shu State's surrendered troops.

Tonight, Pang Tong's purpose was to lure Yan Yan into the battle. It was also the blessing of God. The night tonight was very beautiful. The bright moon shone brightly and had a certain degree of visibility.

It is also suitable for Yan Yan's spies to observe Pang Tong and his team's actions.

"The Chu army moved."

Since Yan Yan received the news from Wu Wen, he has sent more than three waves of soldiers to quietly get off the city and come to the nearby area. The sky was cheering tonight, and when Pang Tong and the others moved, a spy saw it.

On a clearing ground in the north of the camp, a team of spies lay on the ground. One of them said.

"Go and report immediately. The rest of the people follow me." The sergeant roared and immediately got up and followed. One of the people in the team returned to the city.

Soon after, the news spread into the prefect's mansion.

In the hall of the prefect's mansion, Yan Yan, Liu Xun, Ling Bao, Deng Xian and others sat separately, and everyone's faces were very solemn, which made the atmosphere in the hall almost solidify.

"General Chu army has moved." A soldier walked in from outside the hall and reported.

"send troops."

Yan Yan's eyes burst into a ray of sperm and said decisively.

"No." Liu Xi, Ling Bao, Deng Xian and others all agreed and walked out. After a while, Yan Yan put on his helmet and followed him out.

Soon, the army gathered in the east of the city.

An army of 60,000 people in total, including 10,000 Wei sword soldiers, 5,000 crossbow soldiers and 10,000 archers. The rest were ordinary spear soldiers.

Only five thousand people remained in the city to guard the city.

This is entirely because the Chu army has too strong field combat capabilities. If there are too few soldiers, Yan Yan will not have the confidence.

At Yan Yan's order, the gate to the east of the city slowly opened.

"Let's go." The veteran general Yan Yan took the lead, raised his sword in his hand, shouted softly, and led the crowd out.

The wind was cold, and a heroic tiger was entrenched in front of him. But the old general's determination was very firm, and Liu Xun, Ling Bao, Deng Xian and others also followed him out.

In the prefect's mansion, there is a guest room.

Wu Wen knelt on the big bed. He kept kneeling like this tonight. He couldn't sleep.

Until earlier, there was a lot of noise in the prefect's mansion. Wu Wen was a little relieved. He calculated the time and thought to himself: "You should leave the city."

Wu Wen was ordered to enter the city, of course it was not just as simple as spreading news. There was one more thing to wait for him to do.

Outside the city.

After Pang Tong's army left the camp, it soon entered a small road.

Yan Yan, the Ba County guarded this side and was very familiar with the nearby terrain. Pang Tong was more familiar with it. Because Yan Yan did not dare to go out of the city to fight, he unscrupulously sent spies to inquire about the nearby terrain.

There are three forks on this road in total. It is the best place to intercept and kill.

These terrains can be said to be clear in Pang Tong's mind. The best way to intercept them is to intercept them. Therefore, Pang Tong arranged the surrendered troops of the Shu army with poor combat effectiveness at the beginning and end, and was equipped with standard Chu army equipment, Chu swords, high-quality leather armor, and even some iron armored Chu army.

"The army is moving in a hurry." After walking for a while, Pang Tong ordered.

"General, since you have to wait for Yan Yan to leave the city, you should march slowly and be on guard. Why do you move quickly?" Meng Da next to him said in confusion.

"To lure Yan Yan into a trap, we must make our move to bypass Ba County and make it true. For this reason, we sacrificed some of it." Pang Tong shook his head and said.

If you want to deceive others, you must first deceive yourself.

"No." Meng Da felt it made sense when he heard this, so he agreed and immediately ordered.
