Chapter 924
Zhang Ren ordered his subordinates to use a simple door hammer to hit the Qin army's defense line.
The so-called simple door hammer is actually just a log. Although the thing is simple, the power of the defense line that is carried by hundreds of people to hit the opponent is amazing. I am afraid that any defensive line composed of human power cannot withstand such an impact.
Dozens of simple door-hitting hammers were carried by the officers and soldiers and quickly passed through the crowd to the front, and then slammed into the Qin army's defensive front amid a shout! A loud bang of ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping slammed ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing ing 'Charge!'
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened again.
The Qin army's defense line that was blocking the front actually took the initiative to withdraw, and the officers and soldiers quickly retreated behind the vehicle-mounted artillery! At this time, Zhang Ren's charge order had been issued. Liu Bei's officers and soldiers shouted and crossed the Qin army's defense line just now and rushed forward. The rolling tide seemed to have flooded the more than a hundred vehicle-mounted artillery in an instant! At this moment, the vehicle-mounted artillery in front of Liu Bei's army suddenly spit out countless huge fireworks. Almost at the same time, countless black shadows were flying all over the sky. Before Liu Bei's officers and soldiers could react, they were knocked down by a large area of terrible power coming towards them! Countless people fell to the ground and rolled and screamed, and their faces were densely covered with black iron nails!?
The power of this attack is very terrifying, and it was something that Liu Bei's army had never encountered before. The large number of officers and soldiers who rushed in the front seemed to have been emptied in an instant! The officers and soldiers behind saw such a terrifying scene and were stunned on the spot! Gao Shun was waiting at this moment, raised his sword high and shouted sternly: "Charge!"
The sound of the Qin army's war drums suddenly sounded like earth-shaking. Thirty thousand Qin army infantry and cavalry swept upwards, like a strong wind and a wave, crashing into Liu Bei's army! He was so bold that he was killed, and the officers and soldiers of Liu Bei were killed and blood filled! Liu Bei's army was already in horror, and he was attacked by his opponent with all his might. He felt unable to resist and his formation was shaken! The Qin army's offensive was like a tide, and the iron hoof was moving forward. Liu Bei's army was already backing backwards involuntarily! At this time, the floating bridge had been built, and Liu Bei couldn't wait to lead an elite force to step onto the floating bridge to cross the Wei River to reinforce Zhang Ren and the others.
Mi Fang looked at the Qin army like a wolf or a tiger, and the offensive was as fierce and terrifying as the thunder and wind, and she couldn't help but feel fear.
At this moment, a sharp arrow flew from nowhere and flew over his head.
Mi Fang was so scared that she lost her soul and hurriedly leaned on the horse's back and shouted: "We are defeated! Run! Run!"
As he shouted, he turned his horse's head and ran towards the south bank.
Liu Bei's officers and soldiers had already had a very difficult time resisting. At this time, he heard Mi Fang screaming again, and his army was shaken. He could no longer resist the Qin army's fierce attack like a tsunami. The army collapsed and was defeated like a mountain! Zhang Ren wanted to fight again, but the army collapsed completely. Even Sun Wu and Li Mu were powerless to turn the world to the point. He cursed angrily, turned his horse and fled with the tide of soldiers.
Speaking of which, Liu Bei was leading the elite troops to the floating bridge, when he saw his army on the other side running down like a mountain. He was shocked and subconsciously stopped the war horse.
The tide of defeated soldiers rushed up the pontoon bridge and rushed over. Many people were squeezed down the pontoon bridge by their companions. The sound of falling into the water was endless. With the sound of screaming and scolding, the scene was in chaos.
Gao Shun led his army to chase and kill Liu Bei's army's corpse and blood were tragic.
Boom! Boom! Rumble!... A series of terrible loud noises came from the river. It turned out that the floating bridge could not withstand the countless crowds that suddenly surged onto the floating bridge. The fixed ropes broke one by one, and the wooden bamboo rafts collided with each other with the water. The officers and soldiers of Liu Bei who were scrambling to cross the river only felt the sky and the earth shaking, and the loud noises were heard. Countless Liu Bei soldiers fell into the river! After a while, the floating bridge completely collapsed and drifted with the flow. Many officers and soldiers fell into the water, and it seemed like countless dumplings were falling in the water! Thousands of Liu Bei soldiers who could not cross the river had no way to go to the sky and had no way to enter the ground. They put down their weapons and surrendered under the surroundings of the Qin army! Liu Bei soldiers climbed ashore one after another, and it was a messy scene! Liu Bei looked at this scene with a cold face covering and his expression was very ugly.
Liu Bei felt that the war had developed to this point, so he could only stop the attack and rest for a while.
The army returned to the camp and a mighty battle came to an end.
In the big tent, Liu Bei paced back and forth, looking very annoyed and depressed.
All the generals and counselors stood under the tent.
Pang Tong blamed himself: "My lord, it is because of the fault of his subordinates that caused such a great loss! Please punish him!"
Although Liu Bei's army failed to achieve its predetermined goal in this battle, it also suffered heavy losses under the counterattack of the Qin army. It was injured and lost nearly 20,000 officers and soldiers, and most of them were lost when they escaped the floating bridge.
Liu Bei frowned. Although he was resentful to Pang Tong, he felt that he could not blame him for the loss of this battle. His plan was fine. It was just that Zhuge Liang was more skilled and had all Pang Tong's plan! At this point, he shook his head and said, "The military advisor doesn't have to blame himself."
You are not at fault, but Zhuge Liang is too cunning!"
Pang Tong felt extremely depressed, because although his lord did not blame him, his words clearly meant that he was far inferior to Zhuge Liang, which made him unbearable.
Zhang Ren couldn't help but clasp his fists and said, "Lord, although the defeat in this battle was mainly due to Zhuge Liang's cunning, it is Mi Fang's sin to lose such a great loss!"
As he said that, he looked at Mi Fang, who had not made any noise, with an angry look on his face.
Mi Fang was startled and shouted: "Zhang Ren, don't turn the tables! You are the vanguard general, and the loss of our army is so serious. It is clearly your fault, but why do you frame me!"
Zhang Ren clasped his fists at Liu Bei and said, "I am defeated in the war, and I dare not use this to argue. Please ask my lord to cut off my head to thank the three armies!"
He then pointed at Mi Fang and said angrily: "But if Mi Fang had not escaped at the critical moment, he would have shouted, "Our army is defeated! Run!" Many soldiers would not have died in vain, and our army would not have suffered such great losses!"
He clasped his fists at Liu Bei and said, "How can we make the three armies impatient if we don't kill Mi Fang? Please push Mi Fang and I to behead us!"
Everyone looked at each other without saying a word, while Liu Bei looked gloomy and sunny.
Then Liu Bei looked at Mi Fang and shouted: "What Zhang Ren said is extremely true, Mi Fang, do you know your guilt?"
Mi Fang was so scared that she couldn't help but kneel down with a plop, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Brother-in-law, you, for your sake, please spare me, spare my life!"
Liu Bei glared and shouted, "Shut up!"
Then he shouted, "Come!"
Immediately, two white-eared soldiers wearing heavy armor came in and clasped their fists and said, "What are the instructions for the lord?"
Liu Bei pointed at Mi Fang and shouted: "Drag this guy who ruined our morale and defeated our military power and chopped down!"
The two white-eared soldiers looked at each other, then responded to the promise, strode forward, grabbed Mi Fang and prepared to drag him down.
Mi Fang was so scared that she became weak all over and kept begging for mercy.
At this time, Pang Tong went out to Liu Bei to hold his fists and said, "Don't be angry! Although General Mi Fang is guilty, he will not die. Moreover, in the war, it is really ominous to execute the general. Please think twice!"
The generals followed and said, "Please think twice and forgive General Mi Fang!"
Only Zhang Ren frowned and looked annoyed. However, seeing that everyone had not pleaded with, he felt that it was not good to say anything else.
Liu Bei looked at Pang Tong, very happy and admired, but hesitated on his face. Finally, he looked at Mi Fang and said, "For the sake of the military advisor and the generals pleading for you, I will spare your life.
…” Hearing this, the two white-eared soldiers let go of Mi Fang.
Mi Fang couldn't help but kneel down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you for your kindness! Thank you for your kindness!"
Liu Bei said seriously: "But the death penalty can be avoided, but the life penalty cannot be escaped! I will punish you for three years of anger and demoted you to three levels. Are you convinced?"
Mi Fang hurriedly kowtowed and said, "I will accept you! I will deserve the sin! I will thank you for your lord's great kindness!"
Liu Bei also planned to say a few scenes.
However, at this moment, a figure at the door flashed, and Liu Feng, who was supposed to be pretending to move from the River God Temple, ran in.
I saw that his helmet was gone, his armor was covered with blood, his eyes were filled with horror, and his whole body was very embarrassed.
When everyone saw his appearance like this, they couldn't help but feel bad.
Liu Feng knelt down with a pounce, and said in great shame: "Lord, I am incompetent and defeated by Yan Liang!" Liu Bei walked quickly to Liu Feng and asked in anger: "How did you lose again?"
Liu Feng said: "Yan Liang took advantage of the night to smuggle the Wei River and raided our army's camp. Our army was caught off guard and was defeated by them in one battle. Only five or six thousand people came back!" Liu Bei widened his eyes, gasped and looked extremely annoyed, and shouted: "Zhuge Villageman, you are too bullying!"
At this time, Zhuge Liang, who was in Chencang City, was listening to his subordinates' battle reports, smiling and shaking his feather fan, looking very happy.
After the generals finished reporting, he smiled and praised: "The generals have done a good job! Today's two big victories have severely damaged the enemy's spirit!"
All the generals also looked happy, and Yan Liang said with admiration: "The military advisor is a clever plan, and our army is sure to win this battle!"
All the generals agreed, all looking full of confidence.
Zhuge Liang said seriously: "You must not be careless. After all, the enemy army has many people and powerful forces. If you are careless, you will take advantage of the enemy army!"
All the generals held their fists and agreed.
At this time, a dusty messenger hurried in, took out a roll of bamboo slips, held up his hands and said, "Military advisor, Wu Yueshan's emergency military situation!"
Zhuge Liang frowned slightly and said, "Come on."
The commander immediately came forward with the bamboo slips and presented them to Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang unfolded the bamboo slips, and Ma Su's familiar handwriting immediately came into his eyes. Ma Su said in the letter: "Sir, Jun Jian, the students are incompetent, which has forced the Weishui village to be divided. Now the students have gathered all their troops at Qipan Peak and vowed to live and die with the camp!"
Zhuge Liang was anxious and angry, cursing: "How did this Ma Su gather troops on the mountain? Wouldn't he be destroyed by himself?"
