Three Kingdoms

In the village, as the last scream fell, calm gradually returned. Of course, it was only generally calm.

Yan Yan looked at the figures of Liu Dan and other soldiers fleeing far away, and showed a cruel smile.

What a bunch of ignorant fools!

Yan Yan just sent people to follow and drive them away, and then withdrew his troops when it got dark. He had no intention of killing them all, because many children would take over the next work.

Sichuan is called Sichuan because there are so many bugs, big bugs, small bugs, long bugs, long and short, black and white, thick and thin, delicious and not delicious, there are only unexpected ones. , there is nothing that Sichuan and Shu do not have.

Not to mention those terrifying giant insects that roar in the mountains and forests, or those insidious and secretive long insects that can kill with one strike, even ordinary insects are extremely terrifying. If you are unprepared and walk through the wild forest, you are not sure when you will be covered with more than a dozen locusts. After the locusts have eaten enough and peed and left, you may suddenly notice it. come out.

Not to mention those infectious little princes, mini bombers, and world high jump kings...

Under the warm climate of Sichuan and Sichuan, there are mostly mountain woodlands and numerous shrubs. The land of Sichuan and Sichuan is simply a paradise for insects. Therefore, Yan Yan was too lazy to send people to chase Liu Dan. Even if Liu Dan escaped with his life, what would happen?

Liu Dan and other soldiers rushed into the forest recklessly, giving these insects that were about to spend the winter a last luxurious feast!

Of course, bugs don't distinguish between outsiders and locals, but the problem is that Sichuan and Shu people have grown and lived on this land and have already known how to deal with it. However, Liu Dan and others who fled, in fact, in this aspect, It's not much different from Silly Baitian. It's written all over his face just to bully me...

The fire in the cottage was burning blazingly. The fire and thick smoke not only drove away the coveting mosquitoes around, but also made the beasts that came out to hunt at night not dare to approach. They just flashed their green eyes in the grass and shrubs, and then turned around and left. Moreover, you can even lie down and sleep on the baked ground without having to worry about millipedes or cute little creatures with raised tails getting into your clothes in the middle of the night...

Yan Yan watched as his men pulled out some grain that had not been burned into black charcoal from the fire, and then found some dried meat that had not been burnt. He took the local materials and threaded them on the swords and guns, and started roasting them.

After a fight, Yan Yan really felt the fatigue in his body. Unlike the fatigue I felt when I was in my teens or twenties, as long as I slept for one night, I would feel more energetic the next day, and the fatigue would disappear without a trace. Now, this feeling of fatigue is as if it has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. No matter how hard you try to drive it away, a trace will remain on the bones, and then it will accumulate more and more...

Yan Yan moved her sore shoulders, and her mind was no longer on the scene at all, but on running endlessly.

In the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, the situation is now in chaos. All parties seem to want to play games in it, and every move contains a huge bloody atmosphere. Just like now he defeated Liu Dan, but he was able to stop the conquest. General Xi's pace?

not necessarily.

Needless to say, there must be a war about to break out. This reminds Yan Yan of the time when the Yellow Turban Rebellion swept the world ten years ago. At that time, Sichuan and Shu did not get too involved, and luckily they did not suffer much damage. , but now this time, can we still have such good luck?

This battle with Liu Dan went as quickly as it came. Although he won, Yan Yan knew in his heart that this was mainly caused by Liu Dan's incompetence, otherwise Yan Yan would not have been so relaxed.

An unexpected victory.

Originally, Yan Yan's plan was mainly to harass, with burning Liu Dan's army rations as the main goal, so he chose to attack at dusk. After all, even if it was unsuccessful, he would have the cover of night when retreating, so he would not be attacked. People were chasing after him, but Yan Yan didn't expect that Liu Dan was just a bastard. He panicked under the pressure, causing the entire army to collapse and achieve this great victory.

If only General Zhengxi was so weak...

Although Yan Yan knew this was completely impossible.

The defeat of Liu Dan may have only damaged a little bit of the damage to General Zhengxi, but once General Zhengxi's troops invaded Sichuan and Shu, the land of Sichuan and Shu could not afford the same losses.

This is the gap in strength.

In the land of Sichuan and Shu, self-preservation is always more important than progress. Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty won the world. In fact, he did not rely entirely on the locals of Sichuan and Shu. He was only named the King of Shu at that time.

Nowadays, the Central Plains is turbulent, Sichuan and Shu...

Not much else to say, just look at General Zhengxi, who is in charge of the third auxiliary, and conducts trade with various places, with the momentum of turning his hands into clouds and his hands into rain, and then looking back at Liu Zhang, who is as young as a cabbage, Yan Yan couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in her heart.

They are not on the same level at all. How can we compare?

He raised his troops from the north, fought in the north and south successively, cashed in on the Xianbei and Xiqiang, and even managed to gain the upper hand against the famous Han generals Huangfu and others of the older generation...

Yan Yan is also the leader. Of course he knows how difficult it is for General Zhengxi to do this and how powerful the three-color banner is. Therefore, although he defeated Liu Dan this time, he failed to bring him any success. What a joy.

Liu Dan is not scary. What is scary is General Zhengxi, who is standing behind Liu Dan and waiting quietly in the land of three auxiliaries. If one day General Zhengxi really leads his subordinate troops to the south, what kind of combat effectiveness will he have? , can I still be able to resist it with the children of Sichuan and Shu?

Yan Yan didn't know, and didn't even dare to think about it in detail. He was afraid that if he thought too much, he would lose his fighting spirit.

Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and they are not allowed to grow old in the world.

This world has changed so much that he can't understand it...

…………………………

Also at this point in time, Ma Heng was also feeling a little worried.

Stone Ridge was taken down without any doubt. Most of the defenders were killed, a few escaped, and of course three or four were captured alive. The soldier who was first kicked to death by Wei Yan was among them. one.

According to the interrogation of the survivors, as early as two days ago, a Sichuan-Sichuan troop went north, but Ma Heng did not encounter it when he led the troop south...

This means that either they are telling lies alive, or this army is hiding in the mountains.

The answer is that one, obviously.

So what are the hidden troops going to do?

Naturally, it is not just a trip to the mountains and rivers to take away farm entertainment.

"I've seen Zhizhong..." Wei Yan walked over and bowed.

"Wei Sima, come and sit down." Ma Heng waved and said.

Wei Yan was originally just a military prince. This time Ma Heng led the army alone. Wei Yan took the initiative to ask for orders to follow, so Ma Heng simply sealed Wei Yan as a fake Sima.

Ma Heng was silent for a moment and whispered: "Sima inspected the surrounding area, did you see anything?"

Wei Yan also lowered his voice like Ma Heng and said: "It's indeed a bit strange... I walked around and found that the village had been emptied of people. Except for the food and grass in the military village, there was no food and grass in other houses. , all the items that can be moved have been moved... This is definitely not done temporarily... Also, in the field outside the village, someone dug this..."

"This is..." Ma Heng took it, brought it close to his eyes, looked at it in the light of the bonfire in the military camp, and said, "Is this Lu Lun?"

"Everything was dug up... and buried in the soil..." Wei Yan said in a deep voice.

Ma Heng's eyes couldn't help but condense.

"No...it will definitely be a trap to move forward..." Ma Heng squeezed the lettuce in his hand and finally came to a conclusion. Originally, he was hesitant whether to move forward or wait for Liu Dan's subsequent movements, but after obtaining a living confession and seeing such decisive methods, Ma Heng understood that Hanchang was actually ready to burn the boat.

If Ma Heng had all the troops, Ma Heng wouldn't mind a direct attack. But the problem is that Ma Heng only has a thousand men in his hands. There is no problem in conquering a small military stronghold like Shitou Ridge, but he must be prepared to conquer it. It was sufficient, and with a hidden Sichuan-Shu army behind them, any further advance would undoubtedly be seeking death.

"What Zhizhong said is true..." Wei Yangong cupped his hands, his eyes flashed with a radiance under the reflection of the bonfire, as if there was also a flame called ambition burning brightly, "But even if we retreat here, It is inevitable that the Sichuan army will still be followed and pursued... It is better to use the trick..."

"Using a trick?" Ma Heng couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard the sound, and then said, "Tell me..."

…………………………

Wei Yan finally convinced Ma Heng, and Ma Heng led most of the soldiers to pretend to move forward. In fact, he divided the army into three parts. One part was the suspect soldiers, pretending to be a large force continuing to move forward, and the other part of the soldiers were in front. After laying an ambush under the hillside, Wei Yan led the last two hundred soldiers and hid in private houses at Shitou Ridge, vacating the captured military stronghold and playing in the dark under the lamp.

Because according to the information provided by the survivors, the disappearing Sichuan-Shu army must have known that the people who were originally in Shitou Ridge had evacuated, so even if there were scouts coming to check, they would probably just go to the army. A quick look at the village reveals that this leisurely atmosphere will not turn Shitou Ridge upside down.

Wei Yan's target was the hidden Sichuan-Shu army. Although Wei Yan was not like some children from aristocratic families who talked about the art of war and kept silent about the art of war, Wei Yan knew that even if he retreated, he must first solve the hidden dangers on the retreat road, otherwise it would be very difficult even if he retreated.

Wei Yan didn't know whether Liu Dan would be attacked by this Sichuan-Shu army, but regardless of whether it was possible, there was at least a 70% chance that this Sichuan-Shu army would return here, because no matter what, if Hanchang really strengthened its walls and cleared the country, If so, then sooner or later this army will have to return to Hanchang to obtain supplies such as food and grass.

Of course, this Sichuan-Sichuan army may also take other routes, climb a mountain road and take a shortcut, but with a 70% certainty, it is worth betting on it, right?

Wei Yan thinks that his martial arts is quite good, and his riding skills are also good. Overall, he is better than most of the generals in Hanzhong, and even better than General Huang Chenghuang in Shangyong. However, he is still a young man. Uncle Dub, if it weren't for this southern expedition to Sichuan and Shu, even this fake Sima might not be able to be...

The most important things in the military are bravery and meritorious service.

No matter how fast your swordsmanship is or how good your riding skills are, it is no problem that you can kill five or six robes in one breath on the school field, but when those veterans who have participated in the bloody battle of Binbei wear mink hats and patrol the city, At that time, no matter how arrogant Wei Yan was, he had to stand aside respectfully, for no other reason than to respect his military merits.

Five hundred people marched into Pingyang, fought against Baibo, galloped north to pursue King Zuoxian of Xianbei, marched thousands of miles to recover the Yinshan Mountains, and wiped out the rebellion in the north in one fell swoop. With such achievements, these veterans who have experienced these battles, even if they are disabled, The confidence to still dare to be proud of everything.

Wei Yan, who was proud and arrogant, could only write a big word of "submit" in front of these people.

If I don't respect these veterans who have achieved meritorious service, who in the future will respect myself who has achieved meritorious service?

Wei Yan still saw this very clearly.

Therefore, this time when he went south to Sichuan and Sichuan, Wei Yan was full of energy and wanted to make countless achievements immediately. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, he was only asked to supervise the transportation of grain and grass!

This really frustrated Wei Yan.

So when Ma Heng was about to lead the troops forward, Wei Yan simply took the initiative to find Ma Heng, saying that he would follow him and become the vanguard officer. If Wei Yan didn't know that he looked average and didn't know any cute skills, it would be impossible to explain. You have to wear bunny ears, open your big watery eyes, and be cute enough to be a pioneer.

Wei Yan ordered his soldiers to hide in the house and prepare their bows and arrows. If they saw ordinary scouts, they would not be exposed if they could. Only when they saw the Sichuan and Shu soldiers entering the ambush circle could they attack.

Waiting is always the most painful thing, but the hard work finally paid off. I don’t know if it was because the Sichuan-Sichuan army was careless this time, or because they didn’t expect anyone to be hiding in the empty houses of the people. The leading Sichuan army scouts checked the empty and damaged houses. After the military camp, after seeing the corpses of the defenders, they hurried back.

Through the cracks in the house, he could see some smoke and dust rising in the distance on the mountain road. Wei Yan's breathing became heavier and his whole body trembled slightly. He felt that blood was rushing to the top of his head. In his heart, he didn't know what these Sichuan and Shu soldiers were. How many times have I scolded you...

Damn it, why are these short mules climbing so slowly?

The waiting process seemed to have exhausted all the patience of Wei Yan's life. After finally waiting for these Sichuan and Shu soldiers to approach, he saw one of the leading Sichuan army generals entering the attack range. Wei Yan suddenly roared and took the lead in taking the sword in his hand. The bow and arrow were fired, and before the first round of arrows hit the ground, he threw the long bow on the ground, roared, kicked open the door, and led the soldiers to kill the Sichuan general!
