Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

The drums at the South Gate of Xiabian shook the sky, and soldiers from afar shouted to enter the city to drink and eat meat, as if they were going to overturn the whole sky.

"Prefect, what should we do?" Bai Qi asked anxiously.

When Yang Fu was still in shock, he was woken up, and found that the soldiers on the city wall had squatted down like himself, so he hurriedly said: "General Bai is not organizing the defense of the city at this time, do you want to wait for Zhang Fei to enter the city and fight bloody?"

Bai Qi nodded and was about to arrange soldiers to defend against the enemy, when the deputy general at the end of the city wall, He Su, suddenly shouted: "The north gate guard is afraid of Ma Chao, and has opened the city gate to welcome the bandits into the city. Governor Yang and General Bai, please make a quick decision."

"Let's withdraw, I can't defend anymore." Yang Fu had no desire to resist at this time.

Bai Qi supported Yang Fu to retreat back carefully, and asked as he walked, "There are thieves on the southeast, north, and south, should they all retreat to the west gate?"

Yang Fu thought for a while and replied: "Ma Chao in the north and Zhang Fei in the south are invincible. If they surround the west gate, they will have an ambush. Wu Yi in the east gate is not well-known. I suggest going to the east gate to break through."

"Uh... I listened to the prefect." Bai Qi was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.

When they reached the stairs, Yang Fu urged Bai Qi to say, "Zhang Fei is the most powerful general in the world. The general needs to go to the south gate to arrange defenses. General He and I will prepare our troops first, and everyone will gather at the east gate later."

"only."

Bai Qi agreed verbally, but he didn't think so at all in his heart. You all ran away and let me cut off the heir?How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?

"Stay mentally defensive, and you can't let Zhang Fei enter the city alone."

Bai Qi yelled while watching Yang Fu and He Su go away. When he found that the figures of the two disappeared under the city, he didn't care whether those soldiers would defend them attentively.

As soon as Zhonglang General Bai Qi left, the soldiers defending the city ran for their lives. Zhang Fei easily captured the city gate.

The tactic of attacking the Bianming side is to encircle three and lack one. In fact, Zhang Fei has soldiers and horses deployed on all sides.

Before leaving, Liu Bei asked Zhang Fei to give Wu Yi more opportunities, so he deliberately let Wu Yi be in charge of the two city gates during the siege. The more missions, the more opportunities, especially this kind of battle of crushing and picking up leaks.

Wu Yi asked his general Wu Lan to pretend to be himself at the east gate, while he led his troops Lei Tong and Ren Kui to set up an ambush outside the west gate, waiting for the big fish in the city to slip into his trap.

After Zhang Fei broke the gate, Wudu Taishou Yang Fu and his subordinate He Su assembled thousands of elite soldiers at the east gate to prepare to break through.

Seeing that the shouts were getting closer, Yang Fu immediately ordered: "General He, quickly open the east gate, we will break out now."

"Don't you wait for General Bai?" He Su was full of doubts.

"There's no way to wait any longer. Zhang Fei and Ma Chao's people have already entered the city. If we continue to delay, we won't be able to leave." Yang Fu shook his head.

"Uh... the last general takes orders."

Wu Lan's feint attack at the east gate was mostly shouting, and the rest of the soldiers were waiting in the rear, completely unprepared for someone breaking out from here.

The soldiers who broke through the encirclement of Xiabian ran desperately towards Hechi County in the east like a flood gate. Wu Lan organized troops to intercept, cover up, kill and behead thousands of people.

He Su protected the prefect Yang Fu to fight out from the rebellious army, and when he finally fled to Hechi County, there were only 500 people left.

Chapter 473 No Jokes in the Army

Wu Yi's 1 horsemen only left [-] for Wu Lan, so he couldn't stop Yang Fu with the same number of soldiers, but he had the advantage in momentum and killed more enemies.

When he was hesitating whether to pursue or not, Zhang Fei in the city sent an order to Wu Lan to lead the army into the city.

Wu Yi, who was waiting for the big fish at Ximen, didn't arrive, but the little fish who was waiting for Bai Qi's [-]-man army was flanked by Lei Tong and Ren Kui not long after they escaped from the city gate.

Bai Qi ran for his life in a panic and encountered Wu Yi at the end of his life. He threw down his weapon in embarrassment and was about to dismount and surrender. Wu Yi held a big knife and sent a gust of cool wind head-on, and his big head rolled down on the loess.

At this time Lei Tong and Ren Kui surrounded him to congratulate him, Ren Kui clasped his fists and said, "Look at this man's well-dressed clothes, he should not be an unknown person. I wish the general a victory."

"This guy seemed to want to surrender just now, but I ran too fast and didn't stop..." Wu Yi shook his head.

Ren Kui continued to say: "This kind of wine bag and rice bag will die if it dies, and it will consume our food if it stays..."

Wu Yi wasn't bothered either. He reined in the reins and saw the flags being changed at the city gate in the distance. He asked very curiously, "Is this debate so easily broken?"

Lei Tong clasped his fists and added: "According to the confession of the captives captured by the last general, when this remnant army escaped from Xiabian, both the north and south city gates had already been breached..."

Wu Yi nodded lightly, thinking that the two generals Zhang and Ma were indeed formidable. He set up such a big battle to catch big fish, but in the end only a few small fish and shrimp came in. However, it is very easy to follow the big guys to make military achievements.

No remaining soldiers escaped from Ximen, Wu Yi had no choice but to enter the city and return to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei successfully captured Xiabian, and each battalion counted the number of people and counted their military achievements one after another. Because Zhang Fei and Ma Chao were too deterrent, the number of enemies they attacked and killed was not as many as Wu Lan's beheading at the east gate.

When Wu Yi found out, he wanted to slap himself in the face. It was really unintentional, and he gave up his military achievements to Wu Lan.

After stationing in Xiabian City, Zhang Fei asked Wu Yi to send someone out to secure the people, and then be in charge of Xiabian's city defense.

Since the military rations he was carrying had been exhausted, Zhang Fei opened Xiabian's treasury and granary to distribute rewards, and held a large banquet to celebrate the victory.

At the celebration banquet, Wu Yi raised his wine glass and said cautiously: "General Yide, Yang Fu, the prefect of Wudu, has fled to Hechi, which is less than a hundred miles away from Xiabian. Why don't we take advantage of the victory to pursue and expand the food and grass? The food and grass here can only go out. , sooner or later, I will sit and eat the mountain.”

"Ziyuan is right, but the soldiers are exhausted from the long journey, so they should eat and drink enough before resting for two days. Then I will personally attack that villain."

After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he found that Wu Yi was still holding the wine glass, so he frowned and asked curiously, "Drinking, isn't the wine from Liangzhou good?"

"Uh...General Zhang and General Ma are so brave, why don't you take care of mere rivers and ponds? Why don't I lead the army and go there on behalf of the general?" Wu Yi lowered his head to test.

Zhang Fei was still not drunk at this time, and he understood Wu Yi's intention after hearing this, and originally wanted to take those Yizhou generals to make meritorious service.

"Okay, let's drink now." Zhang Fei gestured with his glass.

"Okay... but the lord and the military adviser explained before they left, and told General Yide not to drink too much..." Wu Yi reminded in a low voice.

Zhang Fei frowned, "If you want to go to Hechi, you can have a good drink with me. I didn't drink less when I was facing Zhang He in Dangqu. Do you understand what it means to 'will not accept the fate of the king outside'?"

"Uh... drink... drink..." Wu Yi had no choice but to drink with Zhang Fei.

The next day, all the generals were still asleep. Wu Yi woke up in the evening and went to see Zhang Fei, only to find him drinking in his tent again.

Wu Yi hesitated outside the tent for a long time but didn't dare to enter, fearing that Zhang Fei would drag him to drink until midnight, so he returned to his camp and sighed.

Seeing this, the general Wu Lan asked anxiously: "Can the general ask for a military order?"

Wu Yi shook his head: "General Zhang is still having a banquet in the camp..."

"Wouldn't it be a big mistake to be so greedy? Why don't the general lead his troops away? Wait until the Hechi is taken down and then report to General Zhang." Ren Kui beat his chest and stamped his feet.

"No, General Zhang is the main general. We can't kill him first and play later. Besides, we mainly want to contain him. General Zhang may have his own considerations, so we'd better wait." Wu Yi sighed.

After occupying the lower debate for three days, Zhang Fei finally stopped the group banquet, and the treasury couldn't hold on to eating like this.

Zhang Fei in the army tent was full of energy. He looked at Ma Chao and Wu Yi and gave instructions: "Everyone is almost done with rest. Right now there is Hechi in the east and Shanglu in the west. I want to circle around Xiabian and Cao Jun. You all want to go there." Where are you going?"

"Hechi." Ma Chao and Wu Yi said in unison.

Seeing this, Wu Yi clasped his fists and explained: "General Ma, Yide promised me three days ago..."

"Forgive General Wu, Chao thought it was General Zhang's words after drinking, besides, I have a deep blood feud with him, Yang Fu, and now it's time to avenge my revenge." Ma Chao didn't want to lose the opportunity for revenge.

"There is no joke in the army, General Yide has promised me, how can I change it now?" Wu Yi argued hard.

The relationship between Wu Yi and Liu Bei is there, and the Yizhou gentry is behind him as a backer. Although he dare not offend Zhang Fei, he has a sense of superiority in his heart when facing Ma Chao who is alone in Shu.

Zhang Fei patted his head, and said naively: "It seems that I really said, Meng Qi, you should go to get Shanglu first, and Yang Fu was almost shot by me with an arrow, and now I am afraid that he has gone to the Central Plains. It's not necessarily that we will stay in Hechi and wait to die, we still have a chance in the future."

"only."

After thinking about it, Ma Chao finally agreed, because Ma Chao had a bad reputation in Liangzhou. Shanglu County offered the city to surrender after a little resistance, but Wu Yi's attack on Hechi encountered resistance.

Hechi County is located at the interruption of Chencang Road, because it is located on a traffic artery with a dense population, and the city is very strong surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the current Hechi County is like a candle in the wind.Several years ago, Cao Cao went west to attack Zhang Lu, and was fiercely resisted by Di Wang Dou Mao in Hechi. After Dou Mao was defeated, he was slaughtered by Cao Jun. Cao Cao was worried that the Di people would take advantage of danger to make trouble again, so he took the initiative to send people to destroy the city defense of Hechi.

Yang Fu retreated to Hechi at this time. Cao Cao had planted the bitter fruit because of him. In addition to immediately calling for emergency in Guanzhong and Hanzhong, he also transferred the defenders from the old road to the northeast.

Knowing the current situation in Hechi, Yang Fu couldn't defend Zhang Fei and Ma Chao's attack at all, so he set up a large area of ​​traps on the road he must pass to slow down the speed of the enemy's advance to the east. time.

Wu Yi didn't know that Yang Fu had set up traps in advance, and several Yizhou generals ran into ambush for greed, resulting in the loss of more than [-] forwards, and launched an attack in a state of damaged morale. Did not win the dilapidated Hechi.

At night Wu Yi was hesitant to ask Zhang Fei for help, but the general Ren Kui tried his best to stop him, saying, "How can there be no casualties in the siege of the city? If the general wants General Zhang to ask for help, it will be very difficult to have the opportunity to launch the main attack in the future."

"But right now..." Wu Yi frowned in difficulty.

General Wu Lan said: "Although our attack was frustrated, the defenders of Hechi are small after all, and we can take it in two days."

Wu Yi sighed: "There are too many casualties, and it's meaningless to take down Hechi."

At this time, the scouts suddenly came to report: "Several generals, a dazzling fire was found to the north of Hechi. It should be Yang Fu who led the army to escape. Shall we pursue now?"

Chapter 474 Joining the Army as Commander

"Let's wait until dawn and order the battalions to strengthen their defenses," Wu Yi ordered.

"Wei." The scout replied with cupped fists.

Because there are high mountains on both sides of the Chenghui Basin, the sky is covered with thick clouds in winter, and there is no chance to borrow the moonlight at night.

Wu Yi suffered from being caught in a trap and ambush, so he would not send anyone to chase him at night, as long as the other party didn't increase their troops and push them flat.

The next day, Tianming's scouts went outside Wu Yi's camp to report that the defenders of Hechi had indeed withdrawn to Guanzhong last night, leaving only an empty city in front of them.

Wu Yi immediately led his army into Hechi, and the officials in the county had been evacuated overnight with Yang Fu. There were scattered objects everywhere in the city, as well as people running in panic.

When Cao Cao massacred the city, Hechi’s food and grass were exhausted. Several years later, there were still no grains left in the warehouse. Wu Yi was so angry that he stabbed the door with his sword. If you don't go back, you don't know how to face Zhang Fei when you go back.

General Wu Lan asked: "Hechi has no food left after being slaughtered by Cao Cao. It is also a great achievement for the general to drive Yang Fu away. Do we still want to stay here?"

Wu Yi shook his head and said, "General Zhang asked us to fetch the river pond, and we won't return until the food and grass in the city are exhausted. Now that there are no grains in the warehouse, what shall we eat if we stay here?"

"But go back here..." Ren Kuixin said that he would be ridiculed if he went back.

Wu Yi looked at Lei Tong with a frown and asked, "After half a day's rest, we will leave for the next debate. Hechi has no food left now, so we can only rely on General Lei to return to the tribe to raise funds. Do you have any questions?"

"The general will do his best." Lei Tong didn't say anything dead.

Wu Yi's face was serious, "Doing our best is not enough. The main reason for my offer to attack Wudu is that Lei's tribe will surrender. If we can't raise food and grass, do we still have the face to go back to Yizhou?"

"I can't raise food and grass, come and see me." Lei Tong also felt a little majestic in his heart.

"That's what I want to do." Wu Yi nodded.

The city of Hechi was damaged and it was not easy to defend. In addition, there was no food and grass and refugees in the city. Wu Yi had to go back to the army to plead guilty to Zhang Fei.

After Wu Yi returned to Xiabian, Yi heard that Ma Chao had obtained food in Shanglu. He hated himself for being so unlucky.

Zhang Fei was not angry when he heard the result of the war. Instead, he comforted him: "Hechi County itself has no food, how can I blame Ziyuan? You don't need to be burdened, just defend the city with peace of mind..."

"If I had known that there was no food in the river pond, I wouldn't have to mobilize my troops. I also lost a lot of soldiers and horses because of this. Even if Yide didn't blame me, I would ask the lord for my sin..." Wu Yi bowed his head in shame.

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Why should Ziyuan blame himself? The purpose of our coming to Wudu is to attract the attention of Cao Cao. If you don't go to Hechi for a while, how can Cao Cao pay attention to me?"

"Can you still understand it this way?" Wu Yi scratched his head.

"Why not? It seems that you also have to go to the lecture hall to attend a few lectures. Ziyu said that this is called looking at problems from multiple angles..." Zhang Fei shook his head.

The words "Lantian" made Wu Yi's ears tingle. Except that he didn't pay much attention to the gentry, he was simply a perfect person.

Wu Yi knew that he was not as good as Lan Tian. Although he didn't take the initiative to compare, he couldn't help others to compare him with Mi Fang and Lan Tian.

With such a big mountain on top of his head, Wu Yi didn't have much hope for his future. If he hadn't accepted the people in Yizhou this time, he would never have led troops out to fight. He was already very comfortable in Chengdu.

The news of Zhang Fei's attack on Wudu flew to Yecheng. Cao Cao was paying attention to the rebellion in Xudu at this time. After a brief moment of astonishment, he called Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Sima Yi and others to discuss countermeasures.

Earlier, Song Chen pretended to be a businessman and spread rumors in Xudu. Cao Cao was briefly shocked when he passed by Xudu in order to retreat from the Huainan battlefield, but he revived after he left and returned to Yecheng.

At that time, Guan Yu was recruiting troops and training soldiers in Jingzhou. In order to cooperate with Liu Bei's expedition to Hanzhong, he made a big effort to confuse Cao Cao's attention so that he would not dare to rescue Hanzhong.

Guan Yu's "posture" misunderstood the emperor's close ministers in Xudu. Geng Ji, Wei Huang, Ji Ben, Ji Miao and others wanted to coerce the emperor to attack Wei, and sent a fake edict to Guan Yu to lead troops to serve the king.

In the first month of the 23rd year of Jian'an, at the same time that Zhang Fei attacked Wudu, Ji Miao and others gathered more than a thousand party members to attack the governor Wang Bi, but because the rebellion was too weak, Wang Bi led his troops to defeat him. Thousands of members of the rebels' henchmen and family members were searched and killed, and Xu Du was suddenly plunged into white terror.

Cao Cao put the information of Xudu and Wudu in front of others, he kept beating on the case and said to himself: "The time of Xudu's rebellion and Zhang Fei's appearance in Wudu is such a coincidence, what is this big-eared thief trying to do? "

"Zhang Fei bypassed the Yangping Pass and went deep. It was obvious that he wanted to lure the king of Wei. Maybe Liu Bei was using Guan Yu as bait?" Liu Ye guessed.

Cao Cao nodded slightly, "It is rumored that those rebels had ordered Guan Yu to raise troops. It seems that the east and the west have not communicated well in terms of time. If the rebellion waits until Gu goes to encircle and suppress Zhang Fei, Xu Du may be threatened."

"The hostility is unclear. The king of Wei should not be dismissed lightly. Xu Du's rebellion may have been instigated by Guan Yu to counter Liu Bei's attack in the west. If he wants to leave Yizhou, he will definitely capture Hanzhong. Zhang Fei is also suspected of luring the Hanzhong defenders away." Jia Jia Xu analyzed.

"Wen He's words are also quite thorough. No matter whether Liu Bei's goal is Xudu or Hanzhong, we can't just wait to be restrained by him. Do you have any countermeasures?" Cao Cao asked.

Sima Yi came out of the squad and said: "The fronts on the east and west are very long. The king of Wei needs to wait for the hostility to become clear before marching. He can send a general to Wudu to attack Zhang Fei. He also told General Miaocai not to move lightly, and Xu Capital must pay close attention to the details. Clean it up, I believe Liu Bei will reveal his purpose soon."

"Zhongda's words are very safe, so I will send a general..." Cao Cao realized that he had no generals to send in the middle of his speech. The clan confidant who could take it out, Xiahou Dun was in the east to guard against Sun Quan, and Cao Ren was in Xiangfan to fight against Guan Yu , Xia Houyuan guarded Hanzhong on West Road.

"General Zilian is in Chang'an..." Liu Ye reminded.

Among the four generals of the clan, Cao Hong is the weakest. He is unrestrained, outrageous, and greedy for money. Cao Cao often takes him by his side and does not give him the opportunity to lead the army independently.

"Zi Lian..." Cao Cao hesitated.

"General Zidan is in Luoyang..." Jia Xu reminded.

"Let Zilian and Zidan meet Zhang Fei for a while." After Cao Cao ordered, he suddenly remembered that Cao Xiu was in Yecheng, so he immediately called someone to call Cao Xiu, and said with a smile to several advisers: "I almost forgot about the Cao family." A thousand-mile horse."
