Besides, Zhang Ren closed his eyes in the temporary camp and relied on the fortifications to easily repel Wei Yan's two provocations. The situation is moving forward step by step towards its own plan. Worried that Wei Yan would come for the third time, Zhang Ren was not in a hurry to retreat. In addition, in the second half of the night, after the enemy army is asleep, the effect of water attack is also better.

Therefore, Zhang Ren waited in the camp for Wei Yan to leave for the second time, and then waited for about half an hour, and then ordered the three armies to quietly pack up and prepare to withdraw from the camp. Later, he sent someone to inquire about the news from Liu Cong's camp.

"Oh no, General, the river has suddenly risen and has overflowed!"

"What?" Zhang Yiyi immediately jumped up when he heard it: "Look carefully?" Ling Bao, bastard, how could you break the embankment in advance without my order. Tell me to go down and evacuate quickly! ”

Zhang Ren was so angry in his heart, this bud really couldn't hold his breath, why was he in a hurry? Fortunately, it's still too late to evacuate, but the blocking effect may be much worse. Ay...... It's a pity.

"General, General! The enemy camp was empty! "When the scout horse in charge of detecting the enemy camp arrived at the place where Liu Cong's army was camped, he found that there was no light at all, so he felt strange, and he had the courage to go inside, and when he entered the camp, he found that there were still people there, and there was a mess everywhere, and there was no camp tent at all. He immediately sensed that something was wrong, so he hurried back to report the news.

"What? Tens of thousands of people can't fly with wings? Revisit! Zhang Ren didn't realize it at this time, he just thought that Liu Cong was timid and retreated a little. But it certainly didn't come out of the low-lying ground. After all, the terrain here is flat, and there are mountains and forests beyond it. I can't live so many people.

"How did the enemy retreat? Is it a trap? Or have you discovered the intentions of our army? After Zhang Ren muttered to himself, he ordered: "Someone has come to order the soldiers to gather and follow me to pursue the enemy army!" ”

But on second thought, no!

Although Ling Bud is greedy for merit, he will never be so confused that he will drown himself. Linked to the disappearance of Liu Cong's army, could it be that Wei Yan's attack on the camp was to cover the retreat of the army? And then burst the levee and flood me?

Zhang Ren immediately left the camp, and as soon as he got on the war horse, the water rushed over.

Evacuate! Zhang Ren knew that things were no longer what he imagined. Immediately the sounds of panic and shouts in the camp could be heard.

Obviously, the water of the Rujiang River has overflowed the embankment! And the water came very fast and fiercely!

"Don't panic, retreat to the northwest high!" Zhang Ren shouted, at this moment, the herald is also in the water, few people have horses, and it is strange not to panic when they see the river overflowing. Fortunately, Zhang Ren was originally going to prepare for evacuation, so at this time, there were more than 10,000 people in the camp, and there was no one asleep. Under the reprimand of the commanders, some brave men walked towards the predetermined place with water in the water.

Then, just as the first sergeants had safely withdrawn to Gaodi, thinking that it was complete, suddenly the northwest direction was brightly lit, and then bows and arrows rained. The Yizhou soldiers, who had just climbed the heights and were not at all defenseless, instantly crossed the hillside!

When the soldiers who were marching in the water saw this, their hearts were terrified.

Zhang Ren was riding on a horse, and he could see it from a distance, and the enemy army had already been ambushed on the hillside in the northwest direction. What can I do?

"Listen to my orders, gather the troops, and storm collectively!" After a short pause, Zhang Ren asked the herald to notify the ministries and prepare to rush up one by one. He knew that since the enemy had an ambush, the scattered advance would only wipe out the whole army.

Zhang Ren's subordinates really didn't cover it, although the water of the Luo River was constantly pouring over, but Zhang Ren gave an order and immediately began to assemble in the water. Perhaps they also know that stepping forward alone will only be a dead end.

It didn't take long for nearly 3,000 people to gather around Zhang Ren, and Zhang Ren slapped his horse and shouted: "Sons, kill with me!" ”

The generals followed Zhang Ren closely, and they knew that following the main general at this time, the chances of survival were higher. Of course, this will have to wait until the enemy soldiers are repelled from the ambush.

In the dark, seeing Zhang Ren coming, Wei Yan naturally took the lead: "Soldiers, look at it, that person is Zhang Ren, don't let him escape from us." ”

After speaking, he patted his head and stepped forward: "Zhang Ren Xiao'er, your treacherous plan has been discovered by my master." Now my lord has given back to him in the way of others. Your army is surrounded by water, and you don't quickly dismount and surrender? ”

When Zhang Ren heard this, he was secretly shocked in his heart, and sure enough, it was so. Since Liu Cong saw through this strategy in advance, presumably this water was also sent by him to release it, and Ling Bao is more than lucky. At the moment, I can only take people to rush there first, and then make plans when I return to Ruocheng.

"My subordinates are defeated, since you have seen through my plan and don't run for your life earlier, don't you want to die?" Although Zhang Ren was weak-hearted, there were still countless soldiers looking at him behind him, so he naturally couldn't be stage frightened, so he had a verbal battle with Wei Yan.

"Haha...... Die? I think you're the one who will die tonight, but I'm going to see how you break out of this encirclement. If you can't make it, then you can only leave the corpse to feed the fish! "Real swords and real guns, fighting at night, who was Wei Yan afraid of? Now that they occupy the high ground, they are several times larger than the enemy, and the enemy is now drenched and the combat strength has dropped drastically, and they will definitely not be able to break through.

Wei Yan laughed, laughing so hard that the hearts of countless soldiers behind Zhang Ren trembled, although it was difficult to see Wei Yan's expression clearly in the night, but what Wei Yan said was the truth. Now it is his own side that is flooded, and Liu Cong's army of 40,000 is nearby......

"Less nonsense! Look at the guns! Zhang Ren also knew that continuing to fight with Wei Yan would only demoralize his side.

He wants to take as many people as possible to break through while his subordinates are still sober and calm.

Then since Wei Yan was ordered to intercept Zhang Ren, coupled with the great enmity a few days ago, Wei Yan was not willing to let go of these people easily. At that moment, he also killed with a spear: "Sons, follow me to kill the enemy!" ”

When the battlefield in front of them fought, the Yizhou soldiers who were still in the water panicked, they knew that they could not run fast in the water, and it was not convenient to move, if the front was not defeated, then they would be shot in the water. But if they don't keep up with the pace, if the main general Zhang Ren leads people to break through, it will be difficult for them to break through. So the camp, which was originally quite orderly, began to be restless and panicked. And some of the faint of heart began to flee in the opposite direction.

For a while, chaos began to appear in the camp behind Zhang Ren. And to the east and north, the place where the enemy and us were originally camped has now become a lake. When a road surface that looks fairly flat during the day is flooded, it can be difficult to spot the height. Even the calmer soldiers have people who constantly step on the air and fall on the road to high places.

After falling, they are trampled on, or burned by torches, choked by water, and few people get up again. The sergeants behind Zhang Ren gathered more and more, but behind him there was more and more chaos.

Zhang Ren didn't think about rectifying his subordinates to fight to the death, but just wanted to break through quickly. However, while fighting, he found that not only Wei Yan in front of him was brave and good at fighting, but even the ordinary Jingzhou soldiers were full of strength. What's even more terrifying is that the enemy army is pouring in continuously, and after a hard fight of incense, Zhang Ren and his subordinates are not only not a step forward, but are forced to retreat by more and more enemy troops.

To go back is to die! It was already a water, and the depth was unfathomable. Zhang Ren naturally understands this truth. Helplessly, there were too many enemy troops, and during this period, he changed several places to break through, but wherever he went, Wei Yan followed, but the sergeant behind him was not affected at all, and he was still blocked by three layers inside and three layers outside.

"General, why don't you break through from the east?" The soldiers beside Zhang Ren were also very anxious when they saw this. Your own number is at an absolute disadvantage, one for two, and tonight is doomed to be wiped out. That's why I remembered to run east. Although there is already a piece of water in the east, the war horses are not afraid of water, although it is a little slower, but the average enemy army cannot catch up. And the enemy will not risk going to the water to pursue.

"Try again!" Zhang Ren is unwilling, if he chooses the east, he may break through, but it is only limited to a few people with war horses around him, how can other people break through? Soak in the water for half a day, and the enemy army will wait for work at a high place!

This is the happiest time since Wei Yan entered Shu, he has intercepted Zhang Ren several times, and countless enemy soldiers have died under his own gun. Especially when I saw that the Yizhou soldiers who had just come out of the water looked embarrassed, they were the opponents of the Jingzhou soldiers.

Kill! Avenge your lost brother and be ashamed of yourself! This is a God-given opportunity, and Wei Yan naturally refuses to let it go.

He finally understood why in the evening, the lord sent all the generals to the task, leaving only himself to feint on Dazhai, and then let himself rest, this is to recuperate and wait for this time to break out!

In order to prevent a large number of enemy troops from breaking through, he sent a large number of sentinels to the northwest of Xidoumen to the east to the Luojiang River, and thousands of soldiers were also prepared on the road where he came.

Basically, of the 45,000 people, except for those taken away by Yu Ban and Pang Tong, only more than 20,000 people were thrown into battle, and the others were scattered on the high slopes of nearly two miles, waiting to catch the fish that slipped through the net.

After the battle lasted for half an hour, no one from Zhang Ren's side came up from the water to join the battle. They either jumped into the river and fled for their lives. Either they were trampled on by their peers and choked on water. Either they are going in the opposite direction, even if they go east of Xidoumen, these people are also gambling. Anyway, depending on the situation, if you go up, you will die. Jump into the river and maybe swim back to the other side.

As for those heading east, they simply wanted to get away with it, relying on the width of the water to avoid enemy shots.

Three thousand, two thousand, seeing that there are fewer and fewer soldiers around him. Zhang Renxin's heart is horizontal, withdraw!

He did not retreat in the direction of the Luojiang River, but as the guards said before, relying on the war horse, the water flowed eastward.

Wei Yan was in hot pursuit behind him, and several of Zhang Ren's personal soldiers blocked Wei Yan and fought and retreated. The two sides started fighting again in the water, but it hurt the war horse under the crotch. I don't know the depth under the soles of my feet, and the water in the deep places has reached the horse's belly, and it is naturally very difficult to hump on these generals.

And those Yizhou soldiers who were blocking the direction of progress could only be trampled to death by horses.
