- (On the last day of August, Captain finally asked for a monthly ticket, thank you)
Hundreds of miles away, Linfen City.
Large numbers of Yan troops marched vigorously out of the city and headed south.
Liu Bei, wearing golden armor and a long sword on his waist, rode a tall horse and slowly walked out of the city gate.
Today, Liu Bei has mobilized all his troops and plans to send his troops south to deal with Yan Liang with the Huns.
According to Zhuge Liang's calculation, Liu Bao's Huns cavalry should have defeated the Chu army at this moment. If Liu Bei rushes now, he doesn't have to confront the Chu army head-on, and he only needs to take advantage.
Liu Bei's face was full of confidence, as if he firmly believed that this battle would avenge his past shame.
In his proud thoughts, Liu Bei's king had already stepped out of the city gate.
"I am here in Linfen City to welcome the king's triumphant return." Zhuge Liang congratulated him in advance, and his words seemed to believe that his strategy would be successful.
Liu Bei laughed heartily, his face full of pride, he reined in his horse and turned around, and walked onto the road with his head held high.
Just when Liu Bei had just left the city gate and the horse had not taken a few steps, a scout came from the south and arrived in front of Liu Bei.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry to hear the good news. Liu Bao was ambushed by Yan bandits and suffered heavy losses. Now he has escaped back to Fenyin, but he is besieged by the Chu army. All five Xiongnu tribes are trapped in Fenyin City."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Bei was so frightened that he swayed violently and almost slipped off his horse.
"What, you say it again?" Liu Bei screamed, with a look of doubt on his face.
A few steps away, Zhuge Liang also heard the shocking news and galloped over to catch up.
The scout could only be cautious and repeated the news that the Huns were defeated and the five troops were trapped.
After confirming, Liu Bei fell silent.
His old body was trembling slightly, breathing heavily from his nostrils, and gritting his teeth. It was hard to tell whether he was frightened or angry.
Zhuge Liang's strategizing expression also fell apart, and all that was left on his face was horror and confusion.
Liu Bao's return to Yan Liang was a matter of course. Zhuge Liang could not see anything suspicious. He really couldn't figure out where Yan Liang saw the flaw and actually set up an ambush to defeat Liu Bao.
Zhuge Liang racked his brain and couldn't figure out the reason.
"Of course he would not have thought that Yan Liang actually did not realize that Liu Bao was pretending to surrender, but that Yan Liang had already set the intention to destroy the Xiongnu, so he set up an ambush in advance.
It can be said that defeating Zhuge Liang's plan and ambushing Liu Bao were all unexpected gains.
It was this mistake that caused Zhuge Liang to fall into endless shame. When he thought that Yan Liang had once again seen through what he thought was a brilliant strategy, Zhuge Liang was filled with hatred and shame.
After a while, Liu Bei recovered from his shock and couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhuge Liang.
Liu Bei's eyes regained that subtle resentment, as if he was complaining that Zhuge Liang's plan failed again, and his self-confidence was ruthlessly humiliated by Yan Liang.
"Military advisor, what should we do now?" Liu Bei asked in a solemn tone.
"This" Zhuge Liang stopped shaking his feather fan and raised his hand to scratch his scalp.
After a moment of silence, Zhuge Liang said with great difficulty: "I think we should stay put for now and wait and see what happens."
??Stand still and wait and see what happens?
Hearing these eight words, Liu Bei's expression became even more disappointed.
Zhuge Liang was helpless. With the situation changing completely beyond his control, he had no way of dealing with it. All he could do at the moment was to wait and see what happened, and then slowly think of a solution. .
Liu Bei gritted his teeth secretly, and after pondering for a long time, he sighed: "That's all, quickly pass the order to the front army, and the troops who have been ordered to withdraw immediately to Linfen."
Say it, Liu Bei turned around angrily, glared at Zhuge Liang, and rode back.
Looking at Liu Bei's retreating figure, a wisp of cold sweat quietly rolled down Zhuge Liang's forehead, and he let out a long breath.
¡¡
Fenyin City, the siege is continuing.
Yan Liang's 80,000 Chu army soldiers surrounded Fenyin City. They could attack from all sides at any time and devour the Huns, but Yan Liang was not in a hurry to attack the city.
After all, Fenyin City was built by the Huns for three generations. The city is very strong, and Liu Bao still has nearly 20,000 available troops inside. If the city is attacked by force, even if it is the lastIf he was able to break through the attack later, Yan Liang would definitely have to pay a heavy price.
At this time, Liu Bei was sitting in Linfen City hundreds of miles away, watching what happened. Of course, Yan Liang would not give Liu Bei the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Therefore, after besieging the city, Yan Liang besieged it instead of attacking it. Instead, he sent an order to Luoyang and dispatched city-breaking artillery from the rear to the east of the river.
No matter how strong Fenyin City is, can it still be as strong as Luoyang?
Yan Liang believed that as soon as hundreds of his cannons arrived and a few rounds of bombardment, Fenyin City would be razed to the ground. At that time, all he had to do was to surround and kill them all with a large army. There are only 70,000 to 80,000 Huns, men, women, and children.
So Yan Liang is not in a hurry now. What he and his soldiers are doing now is to surround Fenyin and wait patiently for the city-breaking cannon to arrive.
Yan Liang is not in a hurry, but Liu Bao in the city is extremely anxious.
Because Liu Bao was frightened by Zhang Liao's Qingqi and made a hasty decision to withdraw into Fenyin City, he made a fatal mistake.
Due to time constraints, when the Huns withdrew into the city, they only drove the horses into the city. However, they could not drive all the cattle and sheep outside the city. All the nearly 100,000 cattle and sheep were abandoned outside the city and handed over. Gave it to the Chu army.
The Huns mainly eat meat, and cattle and sheep are their carry-on granaries. In fact, there is not much food stored in the large city of Fenyin. Now after being surrounded, the 70,000 to 80,000 Huns can only eat a few grains. Just a thousand cattle and sheep.
With 70,000 to 80,000 mouths, thousands of cattle and sheep can be eaten for several days. When the cattle and sheep are eaten, they can only eat the war horses. After the war horses are eaten, they will starve to death in Fenyin City.
It was only after Liu Bao was surrounded that he realized how big of a mistake he had made, but it was too late to regret it.
In the king's tent, Liu Bao was pacing back and forth, his head full of worry, but he was at a loss what to do.
Cai Yan stood by the side tremblingly, not daring to take a breath, for fear that he might offend his husband by saying something carelessly and get slapped again.
"Bitch, look what you have done to me. The five Xiongnu tribes will be trapped and die in Fenyin City now." Liu Bao vented his anger on Cai Yan.
Cai Yan's delicate body trembled, her head hung lower, and she was filled with shame.
Liu Bao cursed for a while, and then said coldly: "You have always been very opinionated, haven't you? At this point, why don't you say a word again?"
" After scolding, Liu Bao knew that he, the kidnapped traitor, was actually quite resourceful. Now that the situation had reached such a point, no one around him could come up with an idea, so he could only ask Cai Yan for help again.
With Liu Bao¡¯s permission, Cai Yan just whispered: ¡°I do have a way, which may help my Huns get out of trouble, but I don¡¯t know if I should say it or not.¡±
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you wordy?" Liu Bao was full of foul language, but a look of hope flashed in his eyes.
Cai Yan took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Great Dan Yu sent troops for King Yan, which led to this defeat. Now King Yan's army is in Linfen City downstream of the Fen River. Who sent the Great Dan Yu? The people broke out of the siege and asked the King of Yan for help. I believe that the King of Yan will send troops to rescue him. "
Asking for help from Liu Bei?
Liu Bao's spirit suddenly lifted, as if Cai Yan's words reminded him and suddenly made him find hope.
"Yes, why did I forget that King Yan still has an army of 70,000 to 80,000 people? If he comes to rescue me, I will attack him from both inside and outside, so why not worry about defeating the Yan thief?"
The more Liu Bao thought about it, the more excited he became. Immediately, Liu Qubei was informed and ordered him to lead 500 light cavalry tonight to break through the weak point of the Chu army's defense and go to Fenyin City to seek help from Liu Bei.
"Don't worry, Shanyu. I will fight my way out of the siege for my brother and move to the King of Yan for reinforcements." Liu Qubei assured him by patting his chest, then bowed his hands and left.
Seeing Liu Qubei leaving, Liu Bao let out a breath, his heavy heart eased slightly, and finally some relief appeared on his gloomy face.
"If you can bring in King Yan's reinforcements this time and relieve the siege of Fenyin, you will be able to make up for your mistakes. I will forgive your previous sins." Liu Bao finally had a good face.
Cai Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Liu Bao profusely.
¡¡
The bright moon is setting in the west, and the night is getting darker.
Nearly midnight, the east gate of Fenyin quietly opened. Liu Qubei led five hundred Huns cavalry and left Fenyin quietly under the cover of night.
The hooves of the five hundred war horses were all wrapped in cloth, making only a slight sound in the night.
Liu Qubei spotted the gap in the Chu army's eastern encirclement and rode swiftly along the way.
Half an hour later, Liu Qubei and his five hundred Qingqi finally successfullyPassed the Chu army's defense line.
"Yan Thief, Yan Thief, you want to trap me, the Huns, to death. It's not that easy. Just wait. I'll bring in reinforcements soon. I'll kill you without leaving a trace."
Liu Qubei's tense expression was relieved, and he felt a bit proud in his heart. He led his troops and horses and galloped northeast along the Fen River.
Linfen City is located hundreds of miles downstream of the Fen River. Liu Qubei thought that if he traveled so fast, he would be able to reach Linfen City at noon tomorrow morning.
It¡¯s just that the south bank of the Fen River is mountainous, and only a narrow road between the riverbank and the continuous mountain peaks is feasible. Now that it¡¯s dark and dark, the road is difficult to travel, and the Huns¡¯ light cavalry can¡¯t let go and run wildly.
Just when Liu Qubei ran for several miles and thought he had completely escaped the siege of the Chu army, he suddenly heard the sound of a cannon, and countless torches suddenly lit up in front of him, almost lighting up the sky like daylight.
The flash of light pierced the Huns so hard that they could hardly open their eyes. Liu Qubei immediately reined in his horse with one hand and subconsciously covered his eyes with the other.
Five hundred Xiongnu Qingqi stopped in surprise. After a while, they dared to slowly lower their arms and drive away.
Liu Qubei looked up and was horrified to find that directly in front of them, a Chu army formation blocked their way.
But when he saw the Chu army in front of the formation, Zhang Liao immediately stood tall with his sword drawn.
He took a step forward on his horse, pointed his long knife at the Huns, and shouted in a cold voice: "Hongnu Hugou, my king is very knowledgeable about things. He had already expected that you would ask for help from the big-eared thieves, so you gave up this thought. "Be willing to die!" (To be continued.
