The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 476 Willing to plan ([-])

Early in the morning of the second day, the sky was already bright.The brilliance of the rising sun, like a sharp sword, pierced through the thin mist in the mountains, revealing the crystal dewdrops on the grass.

Zhang Fei led his lieutenant general Zhang Da, and led [-] soldiers out of Dazhai to explore the trail first.Then, Zhang Fei left Zhu Huangquan in Dazhai to guard and protect the military assets and food in the rear.

Most of Zhang Fei's army were from Shu, and they were all good at walking mountain roads, so there were no accidents along the way.On the contrary, Zhang Fei kept issuing orders, telling everyone not to walk too fast, but to push slowly into the mountains.

Zhang Fei is indeed very cautious now. It can even be said that he dare not relax for a moment, and sent all the scouts in the army to scout the surrounding situation.

As the army advanced, the road ahead became more difficult, and the mountains on both sides of the road became steeper and steeper.Many of the lush trees on the hill have grown new leaves, and tall branches grow horizontally above the trail, covering almost all the sunlight, and the bottom is extremely shady.

Zhang Da came running over on his horse and asked Zhang Fei, "General, the road ahead seems to be getting more and more difficult, and the terrain is becoming more and more dangerous. Does our army need to slow down so as not to make mistakes."

Zhang Fei was wearing a pitch-black armor today, which made his already extremely tall body even taller.

Zhang Fei nodded, and said: "What you said is not unreasonable. It's just that the current terrain here is surrounded by densely wooded hills on both sides, and the surrounding area is even more overgrown with grass. If our army rests here, it will be very easy for the enemy to take a break." Army raid."

Zhang Da nodded, then suddenly said with a smile: "General, just now the scouts detected a canyon ahead, and there is a stream in it, which happens to be a resting place."

Zhang Fei couldn't help but nodded his head and said, "That's very good, you continue to lead the front team forward."

The army had to walk for less than half an hour, and finally came to a valley.This valley is gloomy and long, and the sunlight can only reach a few old trees growing on the top of the cliff.This makes the temperature inside seem to be much higher than that outside the valley, and the wind blowing over looks extremely gloomy.

Zhang Fei and Zhang Da stood outside the valley and observed for a long time.The entrance to this valley is narrow, and the interior space in the valley is relatively wide. There is a small stream winding through it.

Out of safety considerations, Zhang Fei did not dare to order the troops to enter, which shows that he has scruples in his heart.After all, such a place is perfect for ambushes.

Zhang Da obviously saw what Zhang Fei was thinking, and cupped his hands and said, "General, if you are worried about the enemy's ambush, the general is willing to lead the front troops in to find out first!"

Zhang Fei thought about it, and felt that Zhang Da's method was feasible, so he agreed.Zhang Da bowed his hands to Zhang Fei, immediately got on his horse, and led his troops into the valley.

After Zhang Da's men and horses had all entered, suddenly there was an earth-shattering sound of clappers around the valley, which was originally as quiet as death. The sound echoed continuously in the valley, and it was impossible to tell which direction it came from.

Then, the sound of Han killing broke out everywhere.

Zhang Fei immediately realized that something had happened.He immediately shouted: "Sure enough, there is an ambush in the valley! It has been tricked!" An anxious look appeared on his face full of beards.

But his rich combat experience helped Zhang Fei, and he quickly calmed down.

He did not immediately send people into the valley to rescue Zhang Da's troops, but first sent two troops of about 1000 troops to expand the defense line on the right flank of his troops.Then, Zhang Fei gave another order to send two troops to guard the left flank as well.

The reason why Zhang Fei did this was out of safety considerations.Because he felt that the enemy might not only set up ambushes in the valley, but also outside the valley, there might be enemy ambushes as well.

Then, Zhang Fei continued to order loudly: "All the rest of the soldiers, follow me into the valley to save people!"

Zhang Fei rode a black cone horse and rushed into the valley first.

At this time, a fight broke out in the valley, and the shouts of killing were already loud.

The valley was in chaos, and Zhu Ran's army used boulders and rockets to continuously attack Zhang Da's troops in the valley.For a moment, boulders flew randomly in the valley, and the rockets even ignited the igniters that had been arranged in the valley, and Zhang Da's men and horses screamed incessantly.

Zhang Da watched his soldiers keep falling, and suddenly felt frightened in his heart.He couldn't help roaring: "Brothers, everyone retreat with me, hurry up, retreat with me..."

Before Zhang Fei had rushed far, there was a sudden boom on the hillside in front of him, as well as the sound of shrubs being snapped.

Zhang Fei immediately reined in the black horse, raised his head and looked up the hillside.Eyes accustomed to the gloomy light below the mountain were dazzled by the light of the sky.Immediately, he saw some boulders rolling down towards the mouth of the valley below.

Of course Zhang Fei knew that this was Zhu Ranjun's good deed. He obviously wanted to use huge boulders to block the entrance of the valley, so that the ambushes in the valley could wipe out Zhang Da's troops in one fell swoop!
Zhang Fei sighed secretly, for his own safety, he had no choice but to turn his horse and run back.

At the same time, there was another loud sound of clappers on both sides of the valley, and Zhu Ranjun's ambush army appeared again.They just wanted to outflank Zhang Fei's army from both sides and catch Zhang Fei's army by surprise!
But fortunately, Zhang Fei has rich experience and has already made arrangements for this.The Jiangzhou army, which had already deployed on the left and right wings, immediately met the Zhu Ran army who was rushing over.

Outside the valley, it immediately became a battlefield for fighting.

Looking at the chaotic scene around him and the raging flames, Zhang Da suddenly felt a sense of despair in his heart.Originally, he just wanted to take the blame and do meritorious service, and to show off in front of Zhang Fei, but he didn't expect things to develop into this field again!
Both sides of the valley were closed, and the thick smoke from the burning began to gather and could not be dispersed to the outside, causing many Jiangzhou soldiers to cough violently.

Zhang Da finally regained his sanity after being smoked by the thick smoke.He then shouted loudly: "Everyone, hurry up and gather on the other side of the creek, hurry up, if you don't want to die, just do as I say!"

Suddenly, Zhang Da was pushed by his guard captain and fell off his horse.After his figure rolled on the ground a few times, he just stopped.

Zhang Da was a little dizzy at first, but he was furious when he woke up.He quickly got up from the ground, and the first thought in his mind was to settle accounts with his guard captain.

But when he looked towards his mount, he suddenly froze.The place has become a bloody mess, the horse is dead, the captain of the guard is dead, leaving a huge stone on the ground, and a pool of gurgling blood.

Zhang Da's eyes turned red all of a sudden, he couldn't control the tears streaming down his face, and suddenly he raised his head to the sky and howled.

At this moment, rivers of blood were flowing everywhere in the valley, and Zhang Da's men and horses were running out.
