Chapter 922 The Battle of Chen Cang (1)

Mi Fang's question was also a question for everyone. Pang Tong was about to explain, but Liu Bei said first: "The reason is very simple.

Zhuge Liang is also a very intelligent person. If our army went downstream without any concealment, wouldn’t he suspect there was a fraud?”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.

Pang Tong smiled and clasped his fists at Liu Bei and said, "Lord is wise! That's right! With Zhuge Liang's caution and the elite of the Qin army, even if our army moves quietly, they will definitely be discovered and hidden! In this way, Zhuge Liang would definitely think that our army is attacking the east. On the surface, it is preparing to cross the river with great fanfare in front of Chen Cang, but in fact, he sent an elite force to attack the downstream, and secretly dispatched the army to set up an ambush downstream to wait for our army to cross the river.

And at this moment, our main force must have been ready, so he went out to cross the Wei River from the front! Even if the enemy reacted, he would definitely not be able to resist it!"

Everyone was very happy when they heard this, and praised Pang Tong's magic tricks.

Liu Bei said: "That's it!"

He shouted to Liu Feng: "Liu Feng, you will immediately lead the next 10,000 troops to go east quietly! Remember, although it is going east quietly, you have to pretend to be tens of thousands of troops!"

Liu Feng agreed to his promise with his fists and walked quickly.

At the same time, the main force of Liu Bei's army in the camp continued to cut down trees and roll wooden rafts and bamboo rafts with great fanfare, without concealing their offensive attempts.

As night fell, the sound of ding-dong ding-dong across the river was constantly reaching Chencang City.

The sentry standing on the city wall raised his eyes and saw the lights on the other side were brightly lit, as if the enemy had no intention of rest.

Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the hall, frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

At this time, Yan Liang stepped in and clasped his fists and said, "Military advisor, the other side is brightly lit. The enemy obviously intends to make enough bamboo rafts as fast as possible. It depends on the situation. The enemy will launch a fierce attack in the future!"

Zhuge Liang stopped and muttered to himself: "Pang Tong has many tricks, and Liu Bei can be regarded as a hero of a generation! But he is so full of fanfare without any concealment. Is there any trick in it?"

When Yan Liang heard this, he looked confused.

At this moment, an officer came in quickly and reported: "Military advisor, the scout who was sent downstream to investigate the situation has returned!"

Zhuge Liang's heart moved and he hurriedly said, "Call him in!"

The officer Yingnuo ran down with a sound of his voice, and after a moment he led a dusty soldier in.

When the soldier saw Zhuge Liang, he immediately bowed: "You are the military advisor. The villain was ordered to investigate downstream and found signs of an enemy's secret marching. The villain followed him and found that the enemy stopped near the River God Temple more than 20 miles away, secretly cutting down trees, as if there was an attempt to cross the river!"

Yan Liang's eyes lit up and he shouted, "This is a sound of attacking the world!"

Then he felt that the direction was reversed and said, "No, it's a sound that strikes the east!"

Zhuge Liang looked thoughtful and shouted to Yan Liang: "General Yan Liang, please lead your elite troops to set up an ambush near the Heshen Temple! Once the enemy crosses the river, they will immediately fight out. Be sure to win this battle to defeat his spirit!"

Yan Liang held his fists and agreed and prepared immediately.

"Wait a moment!"

Zhuge Liang suddenly shouted.

Yan Liang stopped, turned around, clasped his fists and asked, "What else does the military advisor have to do?"

Zhuge Liang did not speak immediately, but looked thoughtful, as if he was considering something.

Just when Wu Yueshan and Chen Cang were fighting, Ai Lang was leading the army to pass Qin Pass and heading straight to Chang'an.

On the way, I suddenly received an urgent report forwarded by Guo Jia. I was really surprised to learn that Liu Bei had actually mobilized the army to attack Wu Yueshan and Chen Cang first, and couldn't help but sigh: "I really underestimated this big-eared thief!"

Huang Yueying, who was accompanying him, frowned and said, "Liu Bei's move was indeed beyond our expectations! He was right in his attack. Our army was not ready yet, but he concentrated on attacking! Now Wu Yueshan and Chen Cang only had 80,000 defenders in total, and maybe he succeeded! If Wu Yueshan lost, the entire Guanzhong situation would be reversed! Our army must concentrate its army to confront the enemy in Guanzhong. At that time, Cao Pi and Sun Jian launched a move behind us, and maybe we would make us lose one thing and let them succeed!"

Huang Yueying and Mei said something, Ailang's face turned ugly. When Huang Yueying finished speaking, Ailang's whole face collapsed and said angrily: "I said Yueying, can't you say something nice?

This is too great for others to destroy one's own might!”

Huang Yueying pursed her smile, blinked at Ailang playfully, and said, "What my sister is talking about is the worst case! I think with my husband's wisdom and magical power, this worst case will never happen!"

Seeing Huang Yueying's appearance, Ailang couldn't help feeling itchy. He wanted to grab her and suck her butt hard before she could feel comfortable.

Huang Yueying saw Ailang's eyes as if she realized something. Her beautiful face turned red and looked around with some concern.

When Ailang saw her like this, he couldn't help but laugh.

Thinking of the current situation, his thoughts disappeared without a trace and frowned: "We have to hurry up, we can't let that big-eared thief succeed!"

After looking at the moving army, he said to Huang Yueying: "Yueying, you lead the army behind you, and I will lead the cavalry to Chen Cang first!"

After saying that, regardless of whether Huang Yueying agreed or not, he waved Fang Tian Hua Ji and shouted: "All the cavalry go with me!"

Then thousands of horses galloped, and more than ten thousand cavalrymen left the brigade and ran forward first.

Huang Yueying rode on the horse, looked at Ailang's hot back, and muttered scoundrelly: "It's true that you don't wait for others to speak!"

After thinking for a while, he called a messenger and gave him some instructions. The messenger responded to his promise and turned his horse and rode his horse toward Chang'an.

His eyes turned back to Chen Cang.

The 10,000 feint troops led by Liu Feng quietly arrived near the Heshen Temple, and then began to cut down trees as planned and prepared to build a floating bridge to cross the Wei River.

At the same time, Liu Feng, as Pang Tong's instructions before coming, sent a scout to cross the Wei River to investigate the situation on the other side.

Not long after, the scout sent to investigate returned the report and found traces of the enemy on the other side.

Liu Feng couldn't help but sigh at the military advisor's cleverness, and immediately ordered people to report this situation to the lord and military advisor who were waiting in the camp.

Although it was already late at night, Liu Bei still did not sleep and paced back and forth on the big tent. He estimated that if the enemy was trapped, there should be news at this time.

Just then, the sound of rapid footsteps came from the door, and a dusty officer came in.

Liu Bei stopped and looked up. He recognized the officer who came in as the messenger who was following Liu Feng. He immediately looked moved and asked hurriedly: "How?

Did the enemy appear?"

The officer said happily: "It appears, it seems to be quite large. An ambush has been set up near the River God Temple. Maybe he is planning to wait for our army to cross the river and get an ambush!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed and couldn't help but praise Pang Tong: "Shi Yuan is really a magical trick!"

Pang Tong smiled slightly, with a calm expression, but he was quite proud in his heart, because everyone thought that Pang Tong was not as good as Zhuge Liang, but this time he plotted Zhuge Liang in! Then he clasped his fists at Liu Bei and said, "Lord, since the enemy has been trapped, I suggest that the army launch a fierce attack at dawn! The enemy was caught off guard and would never be able to block our attack! As long as the crossing of the river is successful, our army will be sure to win this battle!"

Liu Bei nodded and immediately sent an order to order the troops to prepare for attack. At the same time, he ordered the troops to stop making wooden rafts and bamboo rafts.

However, Pang Tong said: "Lord, you must not stop making wooden rafts and bamboo rafts."

Liu Bei was stunned, then understood and nodded, "Not bad! Zhuge Liang is very treacherous. If our army stops making wooden rafts and bamboo rafts, it will probably arouse his suspicion! Okay, the matter of making wooden rafts and bamboo rafts will continue, and the other armies will prepare immediately to force the Wei River to cross tomorrow morning!"

Pang Tong clasped his fists and said, "Lord is wise!"

When several bright white fish appeared in the horizon in the east, tens of thousands of people suddenly appeared in Liu Bei's army camp.

They carried many wooden bamboo rafts and rushed to the riverside quickly, and then put the wooden bamboo rafts into the water and began to cross the river.

After a while, the wooden rafts and bamboo rafts covered the water and paddled straight towards the opposite shore, and the sound of paddling sounds turned into a circle! It was not until this time that the Qin army on the other shore realized that they came over and started to mobilize them in a hurry.

But before they were ready, a vanguard of Liu Bei's army, with thousands of people, had already crossed the Wei River and landed on the shore! Thousands of officers and soldiers rushed forward with a roar. The Qin army caught off guard was frightened and could not support the defeat after a little contact! The defeated officers and soldiers rushed straight to the city. The thousands of Liu Bei's army who had landed on the ground in advance chased the city gate and almost rushed into the city with the defeated soldiers.

Then, the morale Liu Bei's army took advantage of the situation to attack fiercely, and the Qin army relied on the city wall to resist. The huge sound of killing completely broke the tranquility of the morning.

Tens of thousands of Liu Bei's army landed one after another, feeling that the city gate had joined the siege sequence. Not long after, there were soldiers and horses under the city, and the strong offensive continued to hit the city. The city was shaking, as if it would be broken at any time.

At this time, Liu Bei and his main forces were unable to cross the river for the time being, and wooden rafts and bamboo rafts gradually gathered on the water surface, obviously preparing to build a floating bridge.

This is inevitable. The efficiency of crossing the river by relying on wooden rafts and bamboo rafts alone is too low. Since the vanguard troops have defeated the enemy on the shore, they can build a floating bridge with peace of mind.

After the pontoon bridge is built, Liu Bei's main force and logistics supplies can pass through the Wei River and attack Chencang with all his strength.

Liu Bei immediately looked at the fierce battlefield on the other side on the hills. Seeing that his soldiers were so motivated and attacked the opponent with danger, he couldn't help but feel happy and said, "The training results during this period are quite good! The Qin army was so short that it was difficult to resist! This was something that I would never dare to think about in the past!"

Pang Tong smiled and said, "This is certainly a manifestation of our army's combat effectiveness, but the main reason is probably because the enemy transferred the main force to the vicinity of the Heshen Temple! There are not many defenders left in the city, and our army not long ago defeated the shore defense and caused morale to be frustrated, which made our army show such momentum!"
