Chapter 487: Decisive Battle with Zhuge Liang (2)
Fortunately, his reaction speed is fast, and he dodges quickly. The arrows that came out of the tent only shook before his eyes, and then they passed by. And Li Yuanba, who was behind, also realized that there was an ambush in the tent and sent the flying arrows away.
"Die!"
After fending off all the arrows, Li Cunxiao rushed into the camp.
Before the ambushed soldiers could shoot a second round of arrows, they were all killed by Li Cunxiao.
Twenty-five archers, all with their heads smashed!
When Li Yuanba rushed in, he was a step too late, and he saw that the camp tent was full of blood and brains, which was extremely terrifying.
"It seems that Zhuge Liang already knew that we would come to him, so he set up an ambush here in advance." Li Cunxiao turned his head to look at Li Yuanba.
"Well, what then?" Li Yuanba asked.
"Let's go."
Li Cunxiao ran out of the camp and said, "I don't believe that he can escape to the ends of the earth." Even if it's the end of the earth, I'm going to catch him. Let's start with the east. He burned all the tents, so that he could not hide anything. β
"Hey, hey... Burn the tent, okay. β
Li Yuanba was originally a person without ideas, and he only had destruction and killing in his heart. saw Li Cunxiao knock over the stove on the fire rack on the side, igniting Zhuge Liang's Chinese army camp tent. Li Yuanba also did the same, knocking over other stoves.
The two men began their search from the east, and when they saw the tent, they burned it.
When Guan Yu arrived, Zhuge Liang's Chinese military camp tent had been reduced to ashes. He subconsciously felt that Zhuge Liang had been killed. But if you think about it, Zhuge Liang is better than a monkey, how could he die so easily?
With a glimmer of hope, he sent his soldiers around to look for him. Then he returned to continue the fight against Zhang Ren.
The other side.
The war in Zhang Ren's place is still deadlocked.
The five thousand soldiers he brought with him had to resist Guan Yu's tens of thousands of troops.
In terms of numbers, he was not superior, and he was surrounded. But the elite that Lu Bu gave him was the most effective among the nearly 100,000 new troops. Their level of toughness and combat experience are by no means comparable to the Shu army.
Even Zhang Ren was surprised.
In general, when under siege, the morale of the soldiers will be very low, and there will even be a situation of surrender. But for LΓΌ Bu's army, it was the opposite, they fought more and more bravely and united. Without any orders from him, the soldiers would work in groups of three or five on their own, fighting together.
This made Zhang Rendu feel that he was a little redundant. In front of an absolute elite, he, a general, was overshadowed.
Roar Roar Roar !!
With the roars of the soldiers, the battle became more and more intense.
On the whole, they are still on the defensive, looking for opportunities to destroy the enemy. The Shu army was numerous, and they rushed over densely, like locusts in the crops, and they couldn't kill it.
"I don't know what happened to Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao, whether they found Zhuge Liang." Zhang Ren's heart was very anxious.
He knew that the main reason why Lu Bu asked him to come here was to capture and kill Zhuge Liang. As for the hundreds of thousands of Shu troops, it is impossible to defeat them with only 5,000 soldiers.
If it drags on like this, no matter how elite the 5,000 soldiers he brought are, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the fate of annihilation.
And he will die in action.
Zhang Ren will never allow such a thing to happen!
He glanced at the situation on the battlefield and suddenly ordered: "Soldiers, kill to the north!" β
To the north is the road leading to Jiameng Pass. If you really can't bear it, you can also return to Jiameng Pass. This is what Zhang Ren thinks in his heart. In order to survive, everyone will be a little selfish, and he is no exception.
However, will the soldiers carry out this decision of his?
The next thing made Zhang Ren a little embarrassed.
He shouted and shouted in the crowd of soldiers, and no one listened to him, but they all met the enemy on their own. It's like a runaway robot that doesn't change because of someone else's command.
"Uh..."
Zhang Ren was extremely embarrassed.
His army was killed before he came to Zhuge Liang's camp, and only some generals remained, but they had no actual military power. The current 5,000 soldiers are all Lu Bu's.
Maybe Zhang Ren doesn't know.
Before he set out on the expedition, LΓΌ Bu had found several lieutenants among the 5,000 soldiers he had brought with him, and instructed them to wait until Zhuge Liang's military camp, but not to obey Zhang Ren's orders, and let them control the army.
This made the captains feel confident, and with Lu Bu behind them, they still cared about what Zhang Ren did.
In the face of such a crisis, there is only one word in their hearts, and that is to kill ----!
"Kill...!"
The battle continued.
Zhang Ren couldn't call the soldiers around him, so he had to give up.
He reorganized his thoughts, and with the thought of fighting to the death, he also joined the fight.
At this time.
Ma Dai's 150,000 troops had already resisted the rocky forest twenty miles away.
A rocky forest, as the name suggests, is a large area of woods with many boulders. Such terrain may not be the best place for an ambush, but if it is paired with Zhuge Liang's Eight Array Diagram, it will be different. Moreover, the stone forest covers a radius of seven or eight miles, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of troops. It is completely in line with Zhuge Liang's strategic intention to use the multi-stone forest as a barrier to resist Lu Bu.
After Ma Dai arrived here, he hurriedly set up a formation.
Although the Eight Array Diagram is complicated, he has once laid it out under the guidance of Zhuge Liang, and now he has the drawings in hand, which is not difficult for him.
It took about half an hour to lay out the formation.
His army of 150,000 was all hidden inside.
I have to say that this military strength is strong enough. The eight formations laid out with trees and boulders in the rocky forest were guarded by an army of 150,000. If you think about the subtlety of the Eight Formations, you can know the power of the formations.
Lu Bu's army will come as soon as it is said...
"Stop!"
Han Shin's 1st Division, as the vanguard, was the first to reach the Duoshilin. I saw the smoke and dust rising in the forest, and the flags were swaying. Han Xin ordered: "The 1st Brigade and 1st Regiment, disperse and advance, tentative attack. β
Bang bang bang...
Boom!!
More than 1,000 people spread out and approached, firing continuously, firing in a wide area, and then throwing two rounds of grenades.
Han Xin watched intently. After those two rounds of grenades, he summoned the 1st Regiment back and said, "The situation in the stone forest is unknown, and it cannot be penetrated. Sent someone to report to the lord, and said that there was an ambush in the stone forest, and in order to save ammunition, Han Xin asked for a detour to Zhuge Liang's camp. β
"No."
The herald next to him drove his horse back.
When Lu Bu learned about it, he took out a map and looked at it: "If you want to go around the stone forest, you can only go from the east, but there are mountains and forests for ten miles to the east, and it is still possible to ambush the army." After that, we have to cross a river, and we don't know the depth, we don't have boats, how can we get by? β
"Go tell Han Xin to storm the Stone Forest..."
"Wait, lord. General Han's 1st Division was the main force in the decisive battle with Zhuge Liang. Their ammunition is not unlimited, if it is all spent in the stone forest, and when they reach Zhuge Liang's camp, they are afraid that they will not be able to bear the heavy responsibility. The minister suggested agreeing to General Han's request and taking a detour. Xu Shu interrupted Lu Bu's words and said.
