Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 62 Bao Long: I want to make progress too!

That night, darkness gradually swallowed up the sky, and a breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Zhang Wei shrank his neck, listening to the laughter coming from the camp not far away, and his heart finally settled down.

It seems that Xing Daorong really has no ability to lead troops!
He immediately gave orders to the entire army, raised fire as a signal, and attacked and robbed the camp.

Rushing into the camp, he saw wine and drinks inside. He was overjoyed and shouted, "Kill! Kill them all!"

When the soldiers saw this scene, they knew that if the sneak attack was successful, they would definitely win!

Even without Zhang Wei's order, he could not miss this opportunity to make a contribution.

They rushed in all directions and killed Liu Bei's soldiers who were enjoying the banquet, causing them to flee in all directions.

But as they killed deeper, they found something was wrong.

There were not many soldiers who came to drink and celebrate. Generals including Xing Daorong were nowhere to be seen, and there was no one in the other tents!
"broken!"

Zhang Wei realized that something was not right and hurriedly wanted to withdraw his troops and leave, but it was too late.

Xing Daorong and Huang Zhong each led two troops and attacked from three sides.

Zhang Wei had no time to withdraw his troops and, knowing that he was ambushed, he had no choice but to flee.

Xing Daorong and Huang Zhong naturally focused on killing their main general, while Zhang Wei was terrified and just wanted to escape.

As for Yang Ren who had rushed in with them, he had already been separated from them somewhere.

But Zhang Wei couldn't care less about these things. He didn't even have time to escape, so why should he care about Yang Ren!

...

Yang Ren realized something was wrong even faster than Zhang Wei. When Zhang Wei started to run, Yang Ren was almost out of the camp.

On their way back, the army was halfway there when they saw a bright fire in front of them. It turned out to be a military horse blocking their way.

The leading general, holding a big knife, who else could it be but Bao Long?
It turned out that Xing Daorong followed Xi Zhen's plan and after luring the enemy, he added another plan.

While Zhang Wei and Yang Ren are out on the expedition, teach Bao Long to lead a group of soldiers and horses to steal their hometown!
Bao Long led his army around the back of the mountain and saw heavy fog hanging in the sky. He also heard people talking and horses neighing. He was afraid there were ambushes, so he urged his troops to move.

The soldiers left behind by Zhang Wei to guard the camp heard the sound of horse hooves and thought that it was their general's soldiers returning, so they opened the gate to welcome them in.

How could Bao Long miss such a good opportunity!
He immediately led his troops to rush in, and when he saw that the camp was empty, he set fire to it.

The soldiers in several camps all abandoned their camps and fled.

After the camp was burned down, Bao Long led his troops back to report, and that's when he met Yang Ren.

Bao Long was naturally overjoyed, thinking that this was an honor that came right to his doorstep.

He immediately shouted: "Evil general! My general is so smart that he killed Zhou Yu and made him throw away his armor and weapons. You, a bunch of chickens and dogs, dare to fight with my general!"

"I have already burned down your camp today. Why don't you dismount and surrender immediately?"

When Yang Ren saw Bao Long blocking his way, he knew something was wrong.

Seeing this guy attacking from behind, he knew that there would be problems in his camp, but he didn't expect that it had been burned to ashes.

I have lost my hometown, how can I fight?
Yang Ren didn't waste any words and led his troops directly into the encirclement, trying to cut a path and rush back to Nanzheng.

Seeing the merit that had already been in his mouth, how could Bao Long spit it out?

He quickly waved his sword to stop them, shouting, "Don't let the thief run away!"

He spurred his horse forward, caught up with Yang Ren, and started to chop him with his sword.

Yang Ren responded hastily and barely blocked the attack.

If we compare them based on their actual strength, Bao Long and Yang Ren are completely equal, and are basically at the same level.

In this kind of duel where neither side has an absolute advantage, it of course depends on on-the-spot performance.

At the moment, Bao Long's morale was high, but Yang Ren was only concerned about escaping. As a result, in this fight, Yang Ren suffered repeated losses and was beaten back step by step.

Bao Long saw that he had an advantage, and he became more and more excited as he fought. He seemed to be injected with chicken blood, and he wielded his sword vigorously. Yang Ren saw that he was no match for his opponent, so he shouted a feint attack, and when Bao Long was about to strike back, he turned his horse and ran away!

When Bao Long saw that he had been tricked, he immediately cursed.

"You cowardly rat! Do you have any shame?"

Of course, while he was cursing, his hands were not idle either. He chased after Yang Ren in front.

Unfortunately, a slight mistake can lead to a huge loss.

Yang Ren turned around and ran, and he ran with a resolute determination.

Without even looking back, Bao Long couldn't catch up.

Seeing the person running away, I dare not chase him further.

He could only feel depressed and vent his anger on the defeated Hanzhong army.

...

Xing Daorong also failed to catch Zhang Wei.

In this kind of legion combat, it is indeed difficult to capture the enemy's main general.

After all, he had his own soldiers around him who were fighting desperately to get out of the way. If he hadn't happened to run into a tightly guarded enemy, it would have been difficult to keep him.

But it doesn’t matter whether the general is killed or not. As long as we defeat Zhang Wei’s army, we can go straight through Yangping Pass and head towards Nanzheng!
But before that, Xing Daorong naturally had to give some praise to Bao Long who had made great contributions.

...

"Balon! Well done!"

"We defeated the enemy today, and your contribution will be credited to you!"

Listening to Xing Daorong's words, the curve of Bao Long's mouth relaxed completely.

He laughed loudly and said, "General, didn't you see that when Yang Ren saw me, he was like seeing a ghost and didn't dare to resist at all!"

"It's a pity that my horse is not as fast as the enemy's, otherwise I would have captured him alive."

Xing Daorong felt that Bao Long was somewhat boasting, but now that he had won a big victory, it would be okay to let him brag.

He just said: "I will go back and ask the lord for credit for you, and he will at least give you a good horse."

Bao Long laughed and said, "If that's the case, next time we go into battle, I will definitely help you capture the enemy general!"

These words sounded very domineering, but Xing Daorong found that he seemed to have gone astray as a captain.

I was originally counting on this Bao Long to dig a hole for me, but how come he has become so powerful now!

Can we still count on him after this?
Xing Daorong didn’t know whether to feel sad or upset about Bao Long’s growth.

...

However, Zhang Wei and Yang Ren were badly defeated by Xing Daorong's plan of luring the enemy, and they did not even dare to defend Yangping Pass and fled directly to Nanzheng.

Xing Daorong occupied Yangping Pass naturally, but without stopping at all, he headed straight for Nanzheng, an important town in Hanzhong.

When the news reached Jiameng Pass, Liu Bei was naturally delighted to hear that Xing Daorong's army was doing well.

But he discussed with Pang Tong beside him: "I expect Chengdu will get the news soon and ask us to give up the pass. Military advisor, how do you think I should respond?"

In fact, this matter had been planned long ago. The plan was to block the pass and let Liu Zhang take the initiative to attack. Only then could they respond and show the moral high ground.

At the moment, Liu Bei was just asking about the details.

But Pang Tong said, "My lord, just delay. Liu Zhang will naturally become suspicious. But when we conquer Xichuan in the future, we should cooperate with both inside and outside forces."

"Now we should send someone to contact Zhang Song, and at the same time tell Kong Ming to prepare to rush to Sichuan from Jingzhou to provide assistance at any time."

Liu Bei did as he was told and sent people to Chengdu and Jiangling respectively.

With this two-pronged approach, as soon as Xing Daorong takes Hanzhong, we can attack Xichuan!
