Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1299: The Defeat of the Yizhou Army (Part 2)

Zhang Ren was even more dissatisfied with Wu Yi. He was responsible for investigating the situation in the Jingzhou Army. Not only did he not find out about the bed crossbows in the Jingzhou Army, he even found out that the enemy had such powerful infantry.

It has never been discovered, but now Liu Bei is on Yizhou's territory.

However, at this time, he naturally could not question Wu Yi on the battlefield. The most important thing was to defeat the enemy.

Zhang Fei led two thousand heavy infantry, which was invincible. Zhang Fei's favorite thing was to lead the cavalry in battle. What he didn't expect was that these heavy infantry were so powerful. Watching the enemy troops continue to fall, many soldiers of the Yizhou Army

With a look of fear on his face, Zhang Fei couldn't stop laughing. He hadn't had such a happy battle in a long time.

Just when the Yizhou Army was struggling to hold on, Wu Yi, who was in charge of fighting the Jingzhou Army on the left, led his troops and horses, suddenly switched sides and attacked the Yizhou Army. The situation on the battlefield became even more chaotic.

Although Wu Yi's troops at his headquarters only numbered more than 3,000, if they suddenly betrayed him during the stalemate of the war, it is conceivable what kind of turmoil it would bring to the Yizhou Army.

After Zhang Ren got the news, he gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Yi, I have so much trust in you, general. I didn't expect you to be such an ungrateful person."

"General, it's better to retreat. Now the Jingzhou army has already charged, and Zhang Fei's two thousand infantry are even more brave. If this continues, our army will have no troops to use." Lingbao said anxiously.

Zhang Ren was silent for a moment and said: "General Lingbao, you lead three thousand infantry to break up the rear."

"Here." Lingbao said, cupping his fists.

The Yizhou Army began a comprehensive retreat, but after receiving the order, the Jingzhou Army would not let the Yizhou Army withdraw from the battlefield like this. Under the crazy pursuit, many soldiers put down their weapons.

The retreat of the Yizhou Army gradually turned into a rout. Although Lingbao was brave, the heavy infantry under Zhang Fei was an absolutely tyrannical presence on the battlefield, causing bloody storms wherever they passed.

As the sun set, the originally noisy battlefield gradually became quiet. In this battle, the Jingzhou army captured tens of thousands of Yizhou soldiers and killed more than 5,000 soldiers. In addition, Wu Yi led his own troops.

At this time, Zhang Ren had no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. After one side was defeated on the battlefield, it was extremely difficult to gather the soldiers who had fled on the battlefield. Many soldiers were even scattered.

And fled to hide.

Zhang Ren and others fled all the way back to Mianzhu and counted their troops. They found that there were only more than 8,000 soldiers left in the original 30,000-strong army. The expressions of these soldiers could not hide their panic. It can be seen that the battle at Yanqiao left them with a very deep impression.

deep impression.

"General, now that our army has been defeated, we should ask the lord for reinforcements," Lingbao said.

Zhang Ren sighed: "This is my general's negligence. I didn't expect that Wu Yi secretly took refuge with Liu Da'er. Otherwise, how could the situation of our army be so tragic?"

"Wu Yi is not a son of man. If we encounter him on the battlefield one day, he will definitely die without a burial place." Deng Xian, the general of the army, said angrily.

"Instruct the soldiers in Mianzhu to be on alert. General Lingbao is responsible for strictly checking the young people in the city and not giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage." Zhang Ren ordered. The most important thing now is to stabilize the general's morale. It can be expected that,

After Liu Bei won the great victory at Yanqiao, he would definitely send troops to attack Mianzhu. Considering the current state of the Mianzhu defenders, and the fact that Liu Bei's army had skilled craftsmen who built thunderbolt chariots, Mianzhu's geographical advantage would definitely be greatly weakened, and even more

What worries Zhang Ren is that there may be people in the city who secretly seek refuge with Liu Bei, just like Wu Yi, who suddenly showed his fangs at a critical moment.

After the news of the disastrous defeat of the Yizhou army outside the city reached the Prefectural Mufu, Liu Zhang's expression changed slightly. The number of soldiers in Yizhou reached 100,000, and the money and food in the treasury were piled high. He had no worries about fighting Liu Bei.

, however, the army's disastrous defeat outside Fucheng was definitely bad news for Yizhou at this time.

Yizhou has strong soldiers and horses. This is for Zhang Lu in Hanzhong. It was not until this time that Liu Zhang clearly realized that he had underestimated Liu Bei's ability and was able to win over Wu Yi without knowing it and let him work for Zhang Ren.

By providing false information, who can guarantee that there are no internal agents from Liu Bei in the city at this time.

I originally thought that with the Jingzhou Army led by Liu Bei as a threat, the whole Yizhou would unite together, but I didn't expect that this would be the case.

"My lord, Meng Da, the guard of Jiameng Pass, did not obey the orders of the Prefecture Mufu." Huang Quan said with a worried tone.

"I regret that I didn't listen to your words. I didn't want the army of the Marquis of Jin to attack Yizhou, but Liu Bei captured Fucheng. Now the situation in Yizhou is even more tense because of Zhang Ren's defeat." Liu Zhang sighed.

Huang Quan frowned. The more critical the moment is, the more important it is for a monarch to remain absolutely calm. Liu Zhang is the lord of Yizhou. If Liu Zhang showed panic when facing the Jingzhou army,

Let the officials below treat it.

"On this occasion, my lord should come forward to appease the soldiers and civilians in the city. Although the Jingzhou army is strong, there are still tens of thousands of warriors in Yizhou, and Mianzhu is dangerous. As long as General Zhang Ren can defend Mianzhu, the Jingzhou army cannot advance even an inch.

The army in Jingzhou has run out of food and grass and will inevitably retreat," Huang Quan said.

Zheng Du, a counselor under the tent, advised: "Although Liu Bei has captured the city and defeated General Zhang Ren, he still does not have many soldiers under his command, there are no soldiers attached, and there is not much food and grass. It is difficult to transport the army's baggage to Fucheng in time.

It is better to drive all the people in Brazil to the west of the Fulishui River, build deep ditches and high forts, and wait quietly. If Liu Bei asks for a fight, ignore it. When it becomes difficult to continue, we will naturally lead the troops away. When the time comes, our army will take advantage of a false attack and Liu Bei will

It can be captured."

Liu Zhang was silent for a long time and said: "The purpose of the war is to allow the people to live a stable life. How can we drive away the people and make them homeless just because the enemy army is strong?"

Zheng Du said: "My lord, think twice."

"Don't say too much." Liu Zhang said flatly.

Seeing that Liu Zhang had made up his mind, Zheng Du sighed and said no more. Although Liu Zhang's character was a bit weak, he was still relatively lenient in his treatment of the people. Otherwise, Yizhou's population would not have received such benefits when the world was at war.

Such rapid growth.

"Zhengfang, I have appointed you as the guard of the army, and Uncle Bin has been appointed to join the army. You will supervise the war at Mianzhu. You must block the Jingzhou army. After I mobilize the troops, I will definitely drive Liu Bei out of Yizhou." Liu Zhang said.

"Here." Li Yan and Fei Guan said in unison.

Li Yan, a native of Nanyang County, was originally the order of Zigui in Jingzhou. During the turmoil in Jingzhou, he went to Yizhou. With his extraordinary talents, he gradually gained Liu Zhang's trust and was appointed as the order of Chengdu by Liu Zhang.

After Li Yan and Fei Guan left, Huang Quan whispered: "Li Yan was ordered by Zigui of Jingzhou before he took refuge with the lord."

Liu Zhang said: "I treat Zhengfang with integrity, and Zhengfang will definitely not let me down."
