Chapter 140 Advance to the Central Plains (Part 2)
The sun was three o'clock, and the sound of killing along the Yangtze River was shocking the sky. Tens of thousands of Shu Han landed on the shore and gathered with Pang Hong's Shu army, attacking and killing the Wei army side by side. The Wancheng Legion and Xinye Legion in Zhoutai did not expect that the Shu army could cross the Yangtze River to land. They did not have time to withdraw their troops and were immediately in danger!
The Shu army was incredible and had a rainbow momentum. Relying on its military advantage, it quickly raided the ferry of the Xinye Navy of Wei State and cut off its naval retreat! The Wei army frequently increased its troops to guard the troops, but the Shu army was in full force and gained an absolute advantage as soon as it fought.[]
The Wei navy on the Yangtze River looked at the shore and shouted and killed the people on the shore. The Shu army was so powerful that it was not scared. From this point of view, even if it worked hard, it would be difficult to turn the tide. It was better to be a shovel than to sink the ship here... The Wei people could not hide the thoughts of the Shu Han navy, but rather the Shu people's calculations. Anyone who saw the situation suddenly reversed and did not have enough power to hinder the development of the situation, it was normal for people to retreat. This was the psychological deterrence brought by the landing raid, and naturally it was also amid the calculations of the Shu people.
Seeing that the Wei army was not interested in fighting, the Shu Han launched a fierce attack and tried to defeat the Wei army in one go. The Wei navy was panicked and disorderly, and the command and mobilization were not smooth. In addition, the Shu Han navy's offensive was fierce and finally could not resist and began to retreat to the Jiangxia waters. The defeat of the navy represented the irreversible battle, and the situation was settled!
Xinye began to collect troops to guard the lonely city, but Wancheng Zhoutai was at a critical moment of life and death. After chasing from Wancheng, the fierce battle with the Shu army was already tense. After most of the day, the Shu army gradually increased, and the reinforcements were only more than 5,000 reinforcements. At this point, only 7,000 Wei troops remained. Zhoutai was covered in blood, and he was still fighting endlessly, leading his troops to rush left and right to break through. However, Pang Hong was proficient in strategies, and 30,000 people surrounded and killed 20,000 Wei troops, which were used like 50,000. Not to mention the increase in troops, the Wei army was also at the end of its strength. If it was broken out by the Wei army at this time, it would really make the world laugh.
The Wei army in Xinye protected itself, but the Wei army in Wancheng was unable to protect itself. After half an hour, the Wei army suffered all casualties. Many people knelt on the ground to surrender, which made Zhoutai roar in anger. At this time, the Shu army separated from the left and right sides, Pang Hong rode his horse and fan first, and two or three thousand Shu army guards beside him. Zhoutai laughed loudly when he saw it, and swung his sword to fight Pang Hong!
Pang Hong's feather fan shook lightly, his mind was leisurely, and he said calmly: "General Zhoutai has done his best, why not abandon the secret and turn to the light, even if I support the Han Dynasty together?"
Zhou Tai gritted his teeth and cursed: "I am a famous general of the Great Wei Dynasty. I am willing to surrender my life and be humiliated and accept my life!"
Pang Hongxin, the governor of Zhou Tai, was a capable official of the Sima family of Wei. Seeing that he was seeking death, he said, "Ah... Then let Pang send the general for a journey." The words fell lightly, and the sound of bowstrings suddenly sounded, and the rain of arrows fell, running through Zhou Tai and his horse's body. Unfortunately, Zhou Tai was brave and resourceful all his life, and there were times when heroes were short of breath. Zhou Tai and his people and horses were shot into the city and died of a hedgehog.
As soon as Zhoutai died, the Wei army in Wancheng surrendered without any intention of resisting. Pang Hong was overjoyed when he saw this and immediately led the Shu army back to Wancheng. The Wei army in Wancheng had only 20,000 people, and most of them were surrounded and killed by the Shu army. The city had weak troops, which was the time to succeed! As for the tens of thousands of troops in Tianshidao in Xinye and the newly recruited young and strong people in Jingzhou were enough to deal with the Wei army in Xinye. What's more, in addition to hoping that Xuchang would come to reinforce, the Jiangxia and Wancheng in the east and west were all affected by military disasters.
The Shu army ran quickly, although exhausted, victory was right in front of us. After capturing Wancheng, they stood firm in this Wei territory. If they took down the entire Nanyang County, they would take down the entire night of struggle and half a day of fighting, and the pain in the wound was still enduring, but no one was willing to show weakness before the dawn.
Pang Hong was also constantly thinking that there was no news about His Majesty’s battle with Wang Ji in Jiangnan. General Jiang Wei was in stalemate with Sima Zhao in Luoyang, and Jiangxia was also in a confrontation. All parties were fighting fiercely, and they were the only ones who could help Jingzhou troops surround Xinye and then occupy Wancheng. Who else would take responsibility for this merit besides himself?
When they came to their senses, they were approaching Wancheng. When the Wei army on Wancheng saw that Xinye was not their own men but Shu army, they couldn't help but feel at a loss. There were less than 3,000 Wei soldiers in this city, and they were all old, weak, sick and disabled. It was hard to defend the city, let alone deal with the Shu Han brigade. The Shu army was very polite. Before the army arrived, a scout rushed to the city to persuade them to surrender loudly. The Wei army at the top of the city heard this and seemed to be talking. The more than ten cavalry Shu people shouted at the city, and the Wei people were not interested in defending the city and even were too lazy to use arrows to disperse the more than ten cavalry Shu people.
The Shu army arrived at the city in a hurry, and the Wei army could see clearly that the Shu army obviously had a fierce battle, and all the clothes were not covered in armor and were covered in blood. However, when the Shu army used a spear to provoke the head of the people in Zhoutai, the Wei army in the city suddenly felt cold all over, as strong as Zhoutai, and was also killed by the Shu army. This Wancheng was really unpreparable...
The heavy door slowly opened, and the heavy steps stepped out with a little hesitation. The Wei army began to leave the city with a heavy mood. Pang Hong stared at the actions of the Wei people like lightning. The hundreds of Wei soldiers who left the city had no weapons, no hatred, but inexplicably grief and inexplicably heavy.
With a wave of his hand, Pang Zheng brought hundreds of people to test the Wei army. Although he was surrendering, the Wei army in this city was definitely not the hundreds. Victory was in sight, and Pang Hongqiang suppressed the joy in his heart and was still very cautious. Be careful of sailing for a ten thousand years, Pang Hong might not know this sentence, but he understood the truth. Since Chen Shi and Huang Hao suppressed the official career, Feng Chu descendants often lamented that his talent could not be displayed and that his ambitions were difficult to achieve. Even though he knew that the career was difficult, Pang Hong still performed his duties and made the military and political affairs of Fuling very vividly. Even though he knew that the journey of the world was difficult, Pang Hong refused to give up his ambitions, but he was still looking forward to the day when he was running.
Finally, when Chen Shi was executed, Huang Hao died, the court was revived, and he was valued by His Majesty. However, although he was granted the responsibility of being the only one in the war for several years, Pang Hong was either a supporter or a partial army every time he sent troops, and he had never entrusted important tasks like Jiang Wei, Zhuge Zhan, and Huang Chong. Whenever he thought about this, Pang Hong was unwilling to accept it. In terms of strategy, he was only on the right side of Jiang Wei, and how could the military strategy be comparable to Zhuge Zhan? You must know that when the Wei army entered Sichuan, Zhuge Zhan almost lost the defeat and overturned the country. At the critical moment, it was not that he and Yan Yu divided the troops to rescue him. I am afraid that even His Majesty would have to... Now, everything is different. Only he can open up the situation and take the lead in the battle. He will definitely be valued by His Majesty in the future.
When the Shu army saw the Wei people surrendering from the city, the soldiers and generals were all lazy. In fact, they were not lazy. They were just struggling around Wancheng in the middle of the night, and they went to Xinye overnight to ambush. After a fierce battle for half a day, they rushed to this point, both physical and energy were extremely overdrawn. Pang Zheng and hundreds of Shu army were negotiating with the Wei army and asking about the situation in the city. Suddenly, two Wei troops rushed out from the left and right sides of Wancheng and rushed straight into the main formation of the Shu army!
There were about 5,000 Wei troops on the left, each of which was well-clad and energetic. The head general of Wei held up the axe in his hand and shouted loudly: "General Weiyuan Hao Xu is here, so the people of Shu must not be arrogant!"
On the right are seven or eight thousand cavalry of Wei. The flag is clearly the Wei army in Hebei! In a panic, the Shu army only saw the word "Du" written on the flag. Pang Hong thought it was not good. If it weren't for others, it would be Du Yu, the general of Wei who defeated the foreign race outside the border!
Two Wei troops suddenly broke out, and the Shu army was unprepared. They could not have expected that there would be reinforcements from Wei State at this time, and they would have been ambushed behind the city instead of entering the city. Pang Zheng was panicked when he saw this and was about to retreat with hundreds of Shu soldiers, but the hundreds of unarmed Wei soldiers in front of him pulled out their short swords from their clothes and rushed towards him. Many of the Shu army had no time to dodge, and were stabbed by the Wei army, and they fell to the ground and died in dejection.
Pang Zheng shouted that it was difficult to turn the horse's head and was about to escape, but the Wei soldiers behind him had already locked in the Shu Han official. More than ten people came together and jumped up and rushed towards Pang Zheng. Pang Zheng swept across the sword in his hand, and several people were killed immediately. However, the Wei soldiers were extremely cunning and threw the short sword in his hand. Pang Zheng was not careful, and the big sword in his hand was slowed down by the back door of the short sword. At this time, the Wei soldiers pounced on Pang Zheng's horse, and the short blade of the dagger kept stabbing into Pang Zheng's abdomen, and blood kept splashing. Poor Pang Zheng's brave man died at the hands of a slut.
