On the other side, Zhu Bao's troops slowly unfolded, and they had already discovered the direction of Liu Chanjun's forward in advance.

Zhu Bao is not a stupid person,

On the contrary, to be able to entrench himself for so long, Zhu Bao still has something.

He knew that if the imperial court came to kill the country, maybe a place like Yongchang, which was very far to the south, where birds didn't poop and chickens didn't lay eggs, could still be slightly blocked by virtue of the advantages of mountains and rivers.

But his own Qi and the nearby Yue Shan must not be able to resist.

There's no way around it.

After all, there is no good land output in the two places, and there is no place to raise soldiers.

If Liu Bei goes out and doesn't go on a northern expedition, and the country's troops are slaughtered towards Nanzhong, everyone in Nanzhong will have to finish playing.

But he knew it was impossible.

Liu Bei's dream is to set the Central Plains in the north and recover the Han Dynasty, and it is impossible to invest too many troops in the south.

What Zhu Bao can do now is to hurt Liu Bei's elite soldiers as much as possible, and at the same time try to appease Gao Ding, so that he will not be embarrassed by Liu Bei again.

At that time, Liu Bei considered that the cost of attacking Nanzhong was too high, and seeing that these people in Nanzhong were quite deferential, he should not be too embarrassed with them for a while.

When Liu Bei entered the Central Plains, he naturally couldn't take care of the barbaric land of Nanzhong, and Zhu Bao could also continue to be the emperor of the soil in this land at will.

Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is not the hometown of Yueqi, but the official army of Yuewang.

"Tell the Mansion Monarch that Liu Chan's vanguard has been discovered, there are five hundred people, and I ask the Mansion Monarch to decide!"

The vanguard of Liu Chan's army had crossed the Lushui (Jinsha River) and began to advance westward, after Wang Ping had taken this route to cross the mountains and mountains to raid Qiongdu, leaving Gao Ding unprepared for a heavy siege.

Zhu Bao thought about it carefully, and although Liu Chan was risky with his soldiers, he should not be unprepared and deliberately sent to death.

After all, there is a law to suppress the array.

He hesitated for a long time, and the striker general Ma Qin came out of the crowd and said passionately:

"Why should the prince worry too much?

Liu Chan's children were rampant, and with 500 people taking the lead in going deep into the mountains and forests, it was really his own idea.

The last general is willing to lead 300 people in his headquarters to lure the enemy, and the prince of the palace ambushes with elite soldiers, and waits for Liu Chan to enter the ambush, and kills the left and right together, and Liu Chan, who will be able to kill, will be defeated. ”

"Wait to kill Liu Chan's forwards and hang their corpses on the trees on both sides.

Liu Chan is young and timid, how dare he enter again when he sees this? ”

"Don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, please think twice."

Ma Qin, a thief in Yunxian County, immediately fled all the way south after being copied by Liu Chan and went to Nanzhong to hide.

On the way, he was surrounded by Li Yan's vicinity, and his troops were completely dispersed, and he relied on himself to hunt all the way, and only arrived at Yuewang after eating and sleeping.

He really hated Liu Chan to the core, and he always vowed to avenge this blood revenge.

It's just that all his subordinates are scattered, and he can only be a pawn under Yi Shuai Gaoding.

Fortunately, he had a little ability, and he slowly became a small official.

This time Wang Ping attacked Gaoding, Ma Qin didn't say a word and threw down Gaoding and fled, saying that he was going out to summon reinforcements.

happened to meet Zhu Bao's troops on the way, so he simply voted for Zhu Bao, and now he was going to encourage Zhu Bao to go out and fight Liu Chan.

Zhu Bao glanced at Ma Qin, and he said in his heart that Liu Chan's southern expedition to the north was loud,

Cao Wei and Sun Wu had so many capable generals defeated at his hands, which one of Ma Qin's thieves could speculate?

He ordered his men to stand still and continue to reconnoiter the movements of Liu Chan's forward.

Ma Qin's heart was itching, but he was helpless, so he could only honestly wait for the news of the spies to come.

Until the next day, the spies brought a piece of news that made Zhu Bao very speechless-

Liu Chanjun's forward position is very prominent.

After they crossed the river, they kept moving rapidly, without the slightest consideration of logistics.

And the rear team led by Liu Chan himself made very slow progress,

They seemed to be frightened by the rushing water, and it took them all two days to cross the river, and now they were slowly catching up to the forward positions.

This made Ma Qin overjoyed.

"Mingfu," his voice trembled, "Mingfu, you can't let go of this opportunity." ”

The disconnection between the front and the back is the taboo of war in the past.

Liu Chanjun's forward was only 500 people, and he was frantically advancing in the mountains without logistical support, and he even wanted to rush to Qiongdu with a pair of feet.

Even, they committed a military taboo and did not send people to protect the ferry.

As long as the ferry boat is destroyed, all the horses of Liu Chanjun will be trapped on the west bank of Lushui, which is a godsend!

Even a person who doesn't know how to fight at all can see that this is the best chance to strike.

If this opportunity is given up, then Zhu Bao can directly come out and kneel to surrender to Liu Chan, and have a fart fight.

Thinking of this, Zhu Bao gritted his teeth and said with a cruel smile:

"Well, in that case, listen to my orders and lay an ambush in the mountains,

Kill all of Liu Chan's forwards first! ”

Ma Qin was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Zhu Bao to be a striker.

Zhu Bao smiled and said:

"Intercept Liu Chan's forward freedom, I will lead the headquarters to go,

You led your headquarters to cut off Liu Chan's ferry from the rear, so that it could not escape.

Remember, after catching Liu Chan, you can't insult at will, you must treat each other politely. ”

Hey, I have the idea of capturing Liu Chan alive,

Your appetite is still big.

Zhu Bao and Ma Qin made a plan and hurriedly began to arrange in the mountains.

During this period, the cautious Zhu Bao also sent a sentry again, not only to investigate Liu Chanjun's movements, but also to investigate whether Ma Qin had reported to Liu Chan.

Seeing that everything was going smoothly as he had predicted, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Chan is thoughtful and can devise a poisonous plan, but his ability to control is worse after all.

The forwards under him must have wanted to make meritorious contributions too much, or too much to rescue Wang Ping, so they saw everything and marched quickly.

Anyway, two thousand against five hundred, the advantage is mine.

After making a plan, Zhu Bao cautiously arranged a lot of crossbowmen,

He was going to attack with a bow and crossbow for a while after Liu Chan's forward approached, and then kill together.

When the enemy saw the ambush of men and horses far outnumbered by them, they were bound to be in chaos, and the next thing was the consequence of being completely annihilated in the mountains.

Time passed minute by minute, and Liu Chanjun's forward finally appeared in Zhu Bao's sight.

But......

The equipment of this unit is really weird.

All of them wore dark green shorts that they had never seen before, and wore round helmets.

In his hand, he was not holding a ring-headed knife and a halberd, which were common in this era, but a neat shovel.

The two generals at the front of the line each carried a large axe, and looked much more normal than those behind.

"It's ...... What the? ”

Zhu Bao, who was born in a big family, is also well-informed, and he has been in Nanzhong for a long time, so he thought that he would not feel strange when he saw any kind of clothing.

But he had never seen this kind of outfit before.

Or forget it?

Although he has 2,000 elite soldiers, he will be a demon if something is abnormal.

Liu Chan has a great reputation, don't follow his way.

The mountains are dangerous, and it takes a lot of effort to walk through them.

Zhu Bao looked at it and was surprised to find that one of the two generals standing in front of the team was actually an old man with snow-white hair.

In the scorching summer, the old man seemed to be unable to endure the fatigue of the long journey, and his body swayed slightly.

The young general beside him went to help, and the old man shook it off impatiently, as if to show that he still had some strength left.

Hey, old pawn in battle?

Zhu Bao remembered that there was Huang Zhong in Liu Chan's army who was named the right general for killing Xiahou Yuan, and he suddenly sneered in his heart.

I thought the old pawn was just a joke,

I didn't expect it to be true.

Zhu Bao, who originally wanted to retreat, became active again.

After all, what can a septuagenarian do?

After the general?

It just so happens that Wang Ping is just a nobody, and if Huang Zhong, who killed Xiahou Yuan, is captured by me, it will be enough to shock the world.

Liu Bei was shocked, and he definitely did not dare to conquer Nanzhong again.

He quickly calculated for a while, determined that even if he made a great sacrifice in this battle, he must leave Huang Zhong behind.

Hmph, if you knew earlier, you would have left Ma Qin's little people behind, and one more person would have a little more capital for victory.

Seeing that the front of Liu Chanjun had already entered the encirclement, Zhu Bao did not hesitate.

He shouted, and his subordinates immediately released arrows one after another according to the plan, and a dense rain of arrows shot at the Han army without shields, which immediately caused chaos!

"Huang Zhong, leave the head!"

Zhu Bao held the ring head knife in his hand, and commanded the soldiers to rush and kill——

Although he had good strength, he didn't dare to casually rush and kill Xiahou Yuan's fierce generals.

He followed the sergeant step by step, and the two thousand foot soldiers advanced like a wall, and the encirclement was rapidly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Two thousand to five hundred, and to take the lead.

The leader of the other party is still an old man over seventy years old.

Zhu Bao has already taken into account everything he can in military affairs.

This blow is also quite methodical.

But what I never expected was that the Han army was a little flustered in the face of the rain of arrows.

It can be seen that Zhu Baojun is screaming and shouting to kill, not only do they dodge, but some even let out a hearty laugh.

"Hahaha, hahaha."

"After walking for so long on the mountain road, I finally saw a human figure.

If you can't see anyone again, the old man really can't stand it. ”

"The old man is in a good mood today, so let you wait for a happy death!"

Zhu Bao was stunned, only to see that his own foot soldiers who were still in step and launched an attack in a neat and orderly manner before had fallen into disarray.

And it wasn't traps and crossbows that overturned them, but blood-stained shovels.

Haotian Army!

The Haotian Army, whose equipment has been further upgraded, has not experienced a fight of blood and fire for a long time.

There are not many of them, but they are all carefully selected warriors, and they can be called the descendants of Liu Chan's lineage.

Since entering Nanzhong, each of them is waiting for the opportunity to encounter a strong enemy and fight to their heart's content.

Now, that opportunity has finally arrived.

Jufu burst into a shout, and swung the sharp axe in his hand into the crowd.

Several Yiren warriors under Zhu Bao relied on their strength and strength, and they also wanted to wave the blades in their hands to resist.

The knife and axe collide, and the fragile ring head knife is broken in response,

The sharp axe was not blocked at all, and directly split the flesh of a Yiren warrior, and could only let out a terrible cry.

The painful sound echoed back and forth in the valley, shaking Zhu Bao with chills all over his body, and he almost fell to his knees on the ground.

How so?

Somewhat...... Something is wrong!

"Seeing the general, you still dare to come out,

Don't go today, I've tried the general's sharp axe! ”
