Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 213 Liu Bei's decisive battle at Wugong Mountain, Wei Yan ambushes Pan Jun (seeking pursuit)

For Cao Zhang, it doesn't matter whether the matter is clear or not.

Even if Pan Jun was really wronged, Cao Zhang would not gamble Pan Jun's loyalty with the food and fodder of tens of thousands of troops.

Rumors are coming.

Then kill the person at the core of the rumor first.

not to mention.

Cao Zhang had no good impression of Pan Jun from the beginning, and it was even less likely that he would be biased towards Pan Jun now.

Seeing that he could not persuade Cao Zhang, Sima Yi remonstrated: "We can let Xian Yufu go with Xiahou Ba. If there is anything hidden, someone can discuss it."

Cao Zhang was silent for a moment, agreed to Sima Yi's advice, and asked Xiahou Ba and Xian Yufu to lead their troops to meet Pan Jun.

"Wei Yan and Zhuge Qiao appeared in the rear of our army. If we don't send troops to intercept them, our rear will be difficult to stabilize."

"Who is willing to lead troops there?"

Cao Zhang glanced at the generals and expressed fear in his words.

Nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses appeared in the rear, and Cao Zhang couldn't sleep well.

Especially the safety of the grain road!

Sima Yi recommended: "Let the right general lead the troops to intercept and kill."

Cao Zhang frowned: "General You was once captured alive by Guan Yu, so he may not be Zhuge Qiao's opponent."

If it weren't for looking at Sima Yi, Cao Zhang wouldn't be so tactful.

Yu Jin's suspicion has not yet been cleared. If Yu Jin is allowed to encircle and suppress Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan, Cao Zhang will also have trouble sleeping.

Zhang He asked for his order: "Zhuge Qiao is very powerful, and Wei Yan is also a good general. Why don't you let me lead the troops there."

Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan both participated in the battle at Guojieting. Even Zhang He, who had experienced many battles, failed to gain an advantage in Jieting.

Zhang He was wary of Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan and did not dare to take advantage of them.

Cao Zhang frowned even more, obviously hesitant about Zhang He's request.

Seeing Cao Zhang's silence, Su Ze remonstrated: "General Zhenxi, Sima Supervisor, I think the current situation is not suitable for confronting Liu Bei at Wugong Mountain."

"It is better to retreat to Chang'an City first, and then build a stronghold outside Chang'an City to form a corner. With such an arrangement, Liu Bei's two extraordinary troops will be useless."

"When Liu Bei moves the battle line to Chang'an City, he will be unable to keep up with the supplies and supplies. When his supplies are exhausted, our army can take the opportunity to cover up the enemy and we will definitely win!"

"At the same time, you can also send troops into Liu Bei's rear to harass Liu Bei's grain roads."

"In this way, our army will take advantage of the geographical location and food routes."

To be fair.

Su Ze's advice is the most pertinent.

From the position where Cao Zhang led the stronghold to Chang'an City, it would only take a day for his light troops to march in a hurry.

However, in this case, a forced march can easily be ambushed.

Therefore.

Retreat the main stronghold outside Chang'an City, and then divide the troops into Chang'an City. With the city's geographical location and the advantage of troops and horses, it is enough to resist Liu Bei.

The purpose of Liu Bei's surprise attack was because the city of Chang'an was high in water and easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he used cunning tactics.

If Cao Zhang chooses to be a tortoise, then Liu Bei cannot chew the tortoise shell.

pity.

Although the advice is good, Cao Zhang may not be willing to listen.

"Since the martial arts water has retreated all the way to the outside of Zhouzhi City, you want me to retreat to Chang'an?"

"I have the advantage of troops and horses, but I have to fight and retreat continuously and choose to be a turtle to defend myself?"

"Wouldn't this make people mistakenly think that I am afraid of Liu Bei?"

Cao Zhang still had something on his mind that he didn't say.

That is, now that the troops have withdrawn, will Cao Pi change his generals before the battle?

The purpose of Cao Zhang's willingness to come to the Western Front was to reestablish military prestige in the army.

otherwise.

After the war, if Cao Pi dumps him into a fiefdom, he will have no future in his life.

Cao Zhang refused to admit defeat and refused to retreat!
Return.

There may be nothing left!

Zhang He winked at Su Ze, who hesitated to speak.

For Zhang He, he had followed too many generals from the Cao family and Xiahou family over the years.

The more times he served as deputy general, the more Zhang He gained rich experience!
Most of these generals from the Cao family and Xiahou family would not listen to their opinions.

Zhang He's political sense is not bad either.

It's not that Cao Zhang didn't know the benefits of retreating to Chang'an, but he was worried about his power and status in the Wei Dynasty in the future.

Thinking of the relationship between Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, Zhang He couldn't help but think of Yuan Shao's three sons in the past.

As brothers, we have to be hostile to each other, not to mention brothers and sisters. Letting each other live is considered a kindness.

If not, Cao Zhang would not hesitate in this situation.

Because he guessed what Cao Zhang was thinking, Zhang He asked for orders to encircle and suppress Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan.

The same is true for Sima Yi.

Cao Zhang thought carefully for a moment and then ordered: "Divide General Zuo's five thousand soldiers and horses. We must kill Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan. We must not let them attack the rear of our army."

Zhang He didn't say much. After receiving the military order, he led his troops out of the main stronghold.

Xiahou Ba, Xian Yufu, and Zhang He led their troops out of the camp one after another. Such a big movement did not escape Liu Bei on Wugong Mountain.

Since Zhu Ling's messenger was intercepted on the road, Cao Zhang got the news in the early morning of the third day after Wei Yan arrived in Chang'an City, that is, in the early morning of the second day after Du Yu and his group of surrendered soldiers arrived in Chang'an City.

By the time Liu Bei got the news, it was already approaching noon.

Although the time was a little late, this time did not affect Liu Bei's judgment of the situation and grasp of the fighter opportunities.

"Cao Zhang's army is mobilized, and there must be trouble in the rear."

"It must be Wen Chang who came out of Ziwu Valley!"

Liu Bei's tone was a little more excited.

After waiting for so many days, the opportunity finally came.

If Wei fails to arrive, Liu Bei will turn around and attack Yi County.

Fa Zheng reminded cautiously: "Your Majesty, it is just the movement of the army, it does not necessarily mean that Wei Yan has arrived. You need to be careful."

Liu Bei didn't take it seriously: "It doesn't matter! As long as I lead my troops to attack, I can find out the truth about Cao Zhang."

Summoning the generals, Liu Bei briefly explained the current situation and ordered: "The fighter plane has arrived, defeat Cao Zhang quickly."

"Ma Chao, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun, you three each lead 5,000 elite troops as the main army, and attack Cao Zhang's camp in three directions."

"Wu Ban, Wu Yi, Chen Shi, Zhang Nan, and Zhao Rong, each of you will recruit 2,000 elite troops as auxiliary troops to cooperate with the main army and attack in five directions."

"Chen Dao, you lead Bai Jie's soldiers to go astray, and then break into Cao Zhang's army."

"Fazheng, Yang Yi, and you are responsible for staying in the village."

"The rest of the brave generals are traveling with me, the tenth route."

"Take this opportunity to attack Cao Zhang's main stronghold from ten directions."

At this moment, Liu Bei was like a tiger that had just woken up, showing its sharp claws again.

Liu Bei's orders were issued very decisively, and the generals' execution was also thunderous.

Ten armies attacked Cao Zhang's camp. Cao Zhang was so shocked that he stood up from the straw mat in an instant and said, "How could Liu Bei come to attack the camp at this time?"

Cao Zhang, who was shocked and suspicious, did not dare to neglect and quickly issued a military order to resist.

He also hurriedly sent people to recall Zhang He and asked him to give priority to escorting grain and grass.

Liu Bei's arrival came too suddenly, and his army was as fierce as ever.

Cao Zhang couldn't help but secretly curse: "Is this called morale exhaustion? How come Liu Bei's morale is still so strong after so many days?"

There is no problem with Sima Yi's morale theory, and Liu Bei's morale is indeed declining.

only.

When Liu Bei said to the army, "The war opportunity has arrived, defeat Cao Zhang quickly", the morale of the army, which had been declining, became high again.

The fighter plane is coming.

Victory is at hand!

Isn't this the right time to beat up the drowned dog?
Morale will be depleted only when the wind is going against you. Who wouldn’t be excited when the wind is going against you?

During Liu Bei's attack on Cao Zhang's camp, Xiahou Ba and Xian Yufu also intercepted Pan Jun.

"Pan Jun, you dare to have an affair with Liu Bei, what crime should you deserve!" Xiahou Ba convicted Pan Jun in one sentence.

Pan Junren was a little confused: "General Xiahou, did you mishear someone's rumor? How could I have an affair with Liu Bei?"

Xiahou Ba shouted: "You can stop making excuses and be captured immediately. General Zhenxi has an order. If you dare to resist, you will be shot directly."

Pan Jun was so angry that he said: "General Xiahou, I respect you and call you general. Don't push yourself too far. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

"This is obviously a plan to alienate Han Gou, but you want to arrest me because of a rumor. You are so arrogant. Could it be that you are despising His Majesty?"

When Xiahou Ba saw that Pan Jun dared to refute, he immediately drew his bow and arrow.

Xian Yufu quickly stopped Xiahou Ba: "General Xiahou, don't be impulsive. I'm afraid there is another hidden reason in this matter."

Xiahou Ba scolded: "What's the secret? It's better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one person go by mistake."

"If Pan Jun really had an affair with Liu Bei, tens of thousands of troops would be defeated due to lack of food."

"If you want to stop me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Seeing that Xian Yufu couldn't persuade Xiahou Ba, Xian Yufu turned to persuade Pan Jun: "General Pan, why don't you be patient for a while? When we get to the camp, Sima Jianjun will deal with it impartially."

Pan Jun clenched his fists in anger.

I work hard to transport food, but you want to treat me like this?
Why should I be patient?
And at this time.

Suddenly there was a shout from the grain team: "General Pan, your identity must have been revealed. You cannot go to Cao Zhang's camp, otherwise you will definitely die!"

Pan Jun turned around in shock, but it was Du Yu who was pushing the grain cart shouting.

"Du Yu, what are you talking about?" Pan Jun was horrified.

Du Yu and his group caught up with Pan Jun's grain transport team on the way, and then cried grievances to Pan Jun, saying only that Zhu Ling of Chang'an City was unkind.

Pan Jun saw that Du Yu and others had no weapons, so he asked Du Yu and more than a thousand people to push the grain cart.

Pan Jun already had two thousand food protection soldiers, so he was naturally not worried that these more than a thousand people would cause trouble.

But what Pan Jun didn't expect was that Du Yu would suddenly say something at such a critical moment.

With this combination, Pan Jun is like a piece of mud falling off his crotch, not only shit but also shit.

"Pan Jun, you are indeed having an affair with Liu Bei!" Xiahou Ba was furious and shot Pan Jun with an arrow.

Pan Jun only had time to turn his head and barely avoided the arrow.

Pan Jun, who had been on the verge of life and death, was shocked and angry: "Xiahou Ba, you fell into the trap of a Han dog, you are simply crazy!"

Done.

Pan Jun shot an arrow at Du Yu to kill this bad guy.

Du Yu said "Mother!" and rolled to the ground with his head in his arms, shouting: "General Pan, you shot the wrong person. Just like you, we are all internal agents, we are all internal agents!"

Pan Jun's face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

If you can't speak, you will act like a mute. This is because you are afraid that Xiahou Ba won't believe it, right?

Seeing that Xian Yufu was still hesitating, Xiahou Ba shouted: "Xian Yufu, what are you still doing? Pan Jun has two thousand food protection soldiers, all of whom are his troops!"

"Kill Pan Jun quickly, otherwise we will die for losing this batch of food and grass!"

Xian Yufu reacted immediately, drew his bow and shot an arrow at Pan Jun.

Pan Jun saw that both Xiahou Ba and Xian Yufu had murderous intentions, and knew that it was useless to say anything at this moment. Avoiding Xian Yufu's sharp arrows, Pan Jun hurriedly arrayed the two thousand pieces.

"Xiahou Ba, Xian Yufu, you have fallen into the trap of a Chinese dog and you don't even know it yet!"

"I won't fight with you. You can transport the food to Dazhai by yourself."

"Since you said that I colluded with Han dogs, then I will kill those Han dogs who spread rumors about me."

Pan Jun looked at Du Yu and the thousand or so people with angry eyes.

Being plotted by a group of people without weapons, Pan Jun just wanted to kill all these more than a thousand people.

When Du Yu saw this, he turned around and ran away.

Xiahou Ba didn't believe Pan Jun at all.

He said he was going to kill those who spread rumors. Who knows if Pan Jun went to join Zhuge Qiao and Wei Yan?
"Xian Yufu, you send the grain and grass back to Dazhai, and I'll kill this guy!" Xiahou Ba made a quick decision.

Since Cao Zhang said that Pan Jun would be shot if he dared to resist, Xiahou Ba would not hold back.

When Pan Jun saw Xiahou Ba coming to kill him, he was angry and helpless, so he could only form a formation to fight with Xiahou Ba.

It's just that Pan Jun didn't dare to fight too hard and only let the army respond on the defensive.

Played for a while.

Zhang He came from another way to fight. When he saw Xiahou Ba and Pan Jun fighting, he rushed directly to Pan Jun's army without saying anything.

Being attacked by Xiahou Ba and Zhang He, Pan Jun could no longer maintain his defense.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Pan Jun only had time to lead more than a hundred riders towards Chang'an City.

Xiahou Ba was about to pursue Pan Jun, but Zhang He quickly stopped him: "Don't worry about Pan Jun for now, Liu Bei will attack the main stronghold and return quickly to support!"

Xiahou Ba's face changed drastically: "Liu Bei attacked the main stronghold? Damn it, Liu Bei must have had an affair with Pan Jun, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence!"

"I just wish I could let Pan Jun escape. The next time I see Pan Jun, I will capture him alive and chop him up."

Xiahou Ba hated Pan Jun.

Pan Jun not only refused to surrender, but also dared to resist!

Pan Jun, who ran for five miles, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiahou Ba was not chasing him.

Thinking of this sudden setback, Pan Jun became furious.

In anger, Pan Jun forced himself to calm down and analyze the current situation.

"Cao Zhang is confronting Liu Bei. This rumor probably did not come from Cao Zhang's main camp. Although Sima Yi is at odds with me, he will not frame me for no reason."

"If it's not the main stronghold, it must be Chang'an City; it must be Xia Houmao of Chang'an City who believed the rumors and sent a message to Cao Zhang."

"If this is true, we can no longer stay in Chang'an City! We must go to Luoyang immediately to see His Majesty, otherwise I will die in Guanzhong!"

Pan Jun quickly figured out the pros and cons and led the cavalry directly towards Tongguan.

Before walking ten miles, Pan Jun suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. He also saw that the road ahead was blocked by rocks and the secret passage was not good.

"Be careful of ambush!" Pan Jun reined in his horse and shouted urgently.

Before he finished speaking, a large number of Han soldiers emerged from both sides of the road ahead and rushed towards Pan Jun's hundreds of riders without any explanation.

There were also Han soldiers coming from behind, seeming to be encircling them.

Pan Jun looked horrified, waved his hand and shouted: "Pan Zhu, help me break out of the encirclement!"

Pan Zhu also carried a long spear and led several strong soldiers to cover Pan Jun's breakthrough to the front.

With the advantage of his war horses, Pan Zhu successfully broke through the encirclement of Han soldiers, but he only covered Pan Jun and several other cavalry to break through.

"Can you run away?" Wei Chang couldn't help but sneered as he looked at Pan Jun who was breaking out of the encirclement.

Wei Chang's troops were ordered to intercept the messenger here.

Zhu Ling's messengers were killed in three waves, and the last wave was deliberately let go.

Pan Jun successfully broke through. Seeing that there were only a few riders left around him, Pan Jun felt depressed inside.

After using Ma Chao's help to get rid of Yang Qiu, Pan Jun selected two thousand elite troops as his troops, preparing to rely on these two thousand troops to achieve military success.

Who would have thought that these two thousand parts would be scrapped because of this sudden rumor before they were even warmed up.

"Cao Zhang, when I meet His Majesty, I will make you pay the price!" Pan Jun said with a sullen face.

Pan Zhu was also angry.

I just had a fortune of two thousand, and then I became a pauper again.

Next time I want to recruit 2,000 Bubu, I don’t know when it will have to wait.

"A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise."

"As long as I see His Majesty"

Just when Pan Jun opened his mouth to comfort Pan Zhu and the other riders, dozens of riders came slowly from ahead.

The first general is Wei Yan, the general from the north of Hanzhen!
These war horses were captured from Xiahou Mao and were now used by Wei Yan to form cavalry.

Seeing Wei Yan, Pan Jun's face turned pale again.

"My life is at stake!" Pan Jun felt as if all his strength was about to disappear.

Pan Zhu saw Pan Jun stunned and couldn't help but shouted: "There are not many people on the other side. Father, I will help you break out!"

Pan Jun was awakened by Pan Zhu's loud shout and clenched Changshan tightly again: "Don't be obsessed with fighting, break out of the encirclement quickly!"

Pan Zhu waved his hand and shouted: "General, Pan Zhu is here, how dare you fight me!"

Seeing that Pan Jun wanted to break out, Wei Yan sneered in his heart.

Seeing Pan Zhu coming to kill him, Wei Yan slowly took off the Zhuge Liannu from the saddle.

As soon as the trigger was pulled, Pan Zhu's eyes widened instantly.

What a good thief, he actually used a hidden weapon!

next moment.

Pan Zhu directly felled his horse.

"Zhuge Liannu is really convenient to use."

Wei Yan put Zhuge Liannu back on the saddle again.

hidden weapon?

There are no hidden weapons on the battlefield!
When Pan Jun suddenly saw Pan Zhu's tragic death, he was filled with grief and anger: "The thieves will be known by their names!"

Wei Yan made a subtle movement on the horse, picked up Pan Zhu's long spear, and slowly faced Pan Jun: "If you don't die, I will tell you who I am."

He shot Pan Zhu with a Zhuge Liannu just to get the gun.

Otherwise, with Wei Yan's Huanshou Sword, it would be very dangerous to immediately fight Pan Jun with his Changshan.

An inch longer and an inch stronger, even if Pan Jun is not as powerful as Wei Yan, Wei Yan will not take the risk.

Now that Chang Li is in hand, Wei Yan is no longer afraid of Pan Jun's longer weapon.

In just a few rounds, Wei Yan knocked down the long spear in Pan Jun's hand with one shot, and threw Pan Jun off his horse with one hand.

"Tied!"

Pan Jun couldn't break free and looked at Wei Yan angrily: "Who are you?"

Wei Yan sneered: "Pan Jun, you are such a noble person and forget things so much."

"When I was in Jingzhou, I was just an inconspicuous small school beside His Majesty. You have seen me so many times and you don't remember me?"

"I remember your disdain for me very clearly in the past. You said that I was just a martial artist with the word 'wen' in my name, which is an insult to gentleness."

"It's not your fault. After all, it's been almost ten years. Why would you care about me, a martial artist?"

Pan Jun carefully recognized Wei Yan's appearance, and when he heard that Wei Yan claimed that his cousin's name was "文", he suddenly remembered: "You are Wei Yan!"

Wei Yan sneered: "Are you surprised? The warrior you despised in the past can now capture you alive."

"You must be wondering why I appear here?"

"I also want you to understand clearly that I am from Ziwu Valley."

"In the future, there should be a strong note in this history book: Wei Yan, the general of the north of Hanzhen, sent his troops out of Ziwu Valley to surprise Chang'an City, captured the rebel Pan Jun in Huaili County, Fufeng County, and shot his son Pan Zhu to death."

Pan Jun's face became even more ugly.

Wei Yan not only wanted to show off, but also wanted to kill his heart!

"Wei Yan, you have to die!" Faced with Wei Yan's humiliation, Pan Jun could only be helpless and furious.

Wei Yan sneered: "Who can die? If I can die on the battlefield and be wrapped in horse leather, that will be my honor."

"I'll tell you another heartbreaking story. Do you know why I know so much about you and let Xia Houmao believe that you are His Majesty's spy?"

"You must be wondering about this too."

"I'll let you know that you lost. It was your cousin in Shu who was ruined by your career and told us all about you."

"You don't have to be angry. When I get back, I will recommend your cousin to His Majesty. I won't let him hate you for the rest of his life."

Pan Jun's eyes became darker.

Obviously.

Jiang Wan's ruthlessness made it even harder for Pan Jun to accept.

Not long after.

Wei Chang also rode his horse and reported excitedly: "General, all the thieves and horses have been killed, and 87 usable war horses have been captured. Unfortunately, more than 20 horses have been injured."

Wei Yan nodded and glanced at Pan Jun: "It would be good to have eighty-seven war horses. People must be content and not be too greedy. Quickly gather the troops and horses, and let's go back to Chang'an City!"

There is Pan Jun alive.

It was enough to scare Xia Houmao of Chang'an City.

Liu Bei's strong attack continued, and Wei Yan once again appeared at the gate of Chang'an with his troops.

When he saw Pan Jun with his head lowered, Zhu Ling at the top of the city was shocked: "Pan Jun, you are indeed Liu Bei's internal agent!"

Pan Jun didn't want to talk anymore. Didn't you see that I was tied up and gagged?

Wei Yanyao showed off his power: "Zhu Ling, you are indeed very powerful, you can actually see through my plan to deceive the city."

"But after all, you still lack some strategy. All the messengers you sent out were intercepted and killed by me."

"You may not know yet, but Pan Jun is not an insider, but just a tactic used by me to alienate people."

"What's funny is that you actually believe it!"

"Now Pan Jun has been captured alive by me, and the grain and grass transported to Cao Zhang's stronghold have also been robbed by me."

"How many more days of food and grass does Cao Zhang have left?"

"If Cao Zhang retreats, Your Majesty will lead the army to pursue and kill him; if Cao Zhang does not retreat, he will panic due to lack of food."

"How can Cao Zhang make a comeback in this game?"

Only then did Zhu Ling see clearly that Pan Jun was tied up and his mouth was gagged.

"Pan Jun is not an insider. I fell into the trap?" Zhu Ling's face turned ugly.

The military rations cannot be delivered to Cao Zhang's main stronghold. Cao Zhang's military rations can only last for three days at most!

"Wei Yan, don't be arrogant. If you have the ability, come and attack the city!" Zhu Ling saw that the military academies on the left and right looked fearful and shouted sharply.

Wei Yan laughed: "I don't have to come to attack your city of Chang'an. I just need to work here and wait for Cao Zhang's defeat!"

"I also want to ask, my camp is ten miles outside Chang'an City. Do you dare to come and rob the camp?"

"Ha ha!"

"Zhu Ling, I'm waiting for you to rob my camp!"

Wei Yan led his troops away again.

The city suddenly became panicked.

Zhu Ling was also panicked and hurriedly came to Xia Houmao for discussion.

Hearing that Pan Jun was wrongly accused, Xia Houmao immediately jumped up from his seat: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could Pan Jun not be an insider!"

　Previously, Sima Yi's supervision of the army was written as joining the army, but I have revised it.
