Yang Pan led the army to Hande, and more than ten days later, news came, saying that Tao Kan had really captured Hanchang County in the south.

Hanchang is in the mountains, and it is the only way from the hills of Sichuan to the Chengdu Plain. After Hanchang, after 200 miles to the south, the mountains gradually thinned, and Anhan and its north of Nanchong, Xichong, Langzhong, can be said to be the eastern gateway of the Chengdu Plain. These four cities are connected into a line, which can coordinate with each other, and only need to be closely guarded, which is theoretically enough to block the westward exit of the Chinese army.

The most important thing is that the Chinese army transported grain from Hanzhong to here, the road is long and difficult, and it is bound to be difficult to last, as long as Li Shou and Li Ban do not drop the chain, even if Tao Kan has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, it is difficult to break through smoothly. But it is necessary to prevent it from continuing to go south and going straight down to Jiangyang along the Western Han River, but in this way, the grain route of the Chinese army is placed in front of the Cheng army, and it can be easily cut off.

It seems that as General Li Shou expected, the Chinese army may not come to attack the Sword Pavilion, and even if there is an army, it is just a suspicious soldier. Yang Panxin said that it was a pity, although I went to the Sword Pavilion, I only sat dry, and it is estimated that there is no chance to make contributions.

After waiting for a few more days, it was reported that the Chinese army marched westward and arrived in front of the pavilion. Yang Pan was taken aback, hurriedly climbed the pavilion and looked, only to see the camp along the road for several miles, banners fluttering, as if there were tens of thousands of people!

Then he looked left and right and asked, do you know the banner, who are the generals?

There is a well-eyed pawn who reported: "They are all the banners of the Tiger Ben Army, and the big banner is cloudy: 'Colonel Chen, the left division of the Tiger Ben'." Yang Pan frowned and said, "Who is this?" but I have never heard of ......"

In fact, this "Colonel Chen", who is Colonel Chen Jian and Chen Xingguo, was demoted to China because he betrayed Qu Liu, and was assigned to be subordinate to Feng Tie. When the country was captured, the generals of the ancestral army were transferred back to Luoyang one after another, and Chen Jian also returned from Feng Tie and was sent to the military academy for several months.

Immediately hearing that Zhen Sui was going to prison Li Ju to join the party, Chen Jian pleaded with the military department, saying that I used to be from the six guards of the party, familiar with geography, and my family was still in the party, and I hoped to be able to join the line - so I transferred to Zhen Sui. The party is almost empty, there are many thieves and few soldiers, Chen Jiannai followed Zhen Sui to suppress bandits, often regardless of life and death, rushing to kill in front - one is that he has just returned to China, and he should fight to serve so as not to be rejected by the old generals, and the other is to find his wife and children in a hurry - which has been appreciated by Zhen Sui.

Fortunately, Feng's mother and son were worried that Chen Jian would not find anyone when he came back, and since then, the relatives have been separated from each other, and it is difficult to see each other again, so they have been honestly hiding in the small village and dare not move their nests. When Jian Chen finally had to meet Feng, the husband and wife couldn't help but hug and cry. Then Chen Jian said, I have now descended to the Chinese according to the words of my wife, and I have been appointed as a general, and I will be rich and glorious from now on, and I will share it with Qing; However, for fear of being recognized, breaking the past, and never returning to your hometown, I will take you to Chang'an to settle down.

Chang'an is the capital set by the Son of Heaven, and the price of land will definitely rise sharply in the future.

- Chen Jian thought about it for a long time, but unfortunately he was humble after all, so he couldn't get the news, the Son of Heaven wanted to build a new capital in the south of Chang'an City, but Bai bought hundreds of acres of land in the north of Longshouyuan, and the land price has not risen. That's for later, so let's leave it at that.

Let's say that Chen Jian is Zhen Sui's deputy general this time, and he came to the Sword Pavilion, but Zhen Sui was ashamed and refused to play his own banner, so the main general Daxu had no choice but to Zhang Chen Xingguo's "Tiger Benzuo Shizuo Colonel Chen", a general of his level, and a demote, how could Yang Pan have heard of it?

However, Zhen Sui also ordered someone to sentry into the mountain, and learned that the main person on the opposite side would be "Fuwei General Yang", and he also looked at Chen Jian and the others, not knowing who he was referring to. Zhen was angry casually and said: "Di Kou didn't let Li Shou and Li Ban come to me, but he ordered a nameless person, and he didn't put the master in his eyes!" ”

Chen Jian hurriedly said: "Zhen Shuai didn't make a statement, Di Kou didn't know that Zhen Shuai was coming, but he just made the general control me-why be angry?" ”

Zhen Sui suddenly smiled: "Xiao Chen Ru is right-it's just that I have never heard of a person with the surname 'Yang' in the world, most of them are a kind of people...... Or the southwestern Yi species, it is not known. ”

- This is purely his rude and uneducated, Yang is actually an ancient Chinese surname, one is said to be from Yu Shun's invention of the twenty-five strings of Yang Yan, and the other is said to be after the prince of Qin Hui, although the population is scarce, after all, it is not a barbarian. Yang Pan's bloodline is actually much more Chinese than his Zhen Manzi.

Besides, looking at the enemy's situation from afar, although there are tens of thousands of miles in the camp, he is also a general of the country, how can he not see that there is fraud in it. asked the guard: "In the past, General Wukao (Li Shou) was here, destroying the Chinese general Gao Le, I don't know how to fight?" Thou shalt be prepared to speak. ”

The guard said that Li Shou came to the gate that day, and saw that although the Chinese camp was crowded, the smoke was thin during the meal, so it was expected that there must be suspicious soldiers, but in fact there were only thousands of people, so he launched a surprise attack that night, Gao Le collapsed, and left in embarrassment......

Yang Pan smiled: "How similar is today's trend to the past? The Chinese refused to accept the lesson......"

However, in order to be in order, he still waited patiently until the evening eclipse, and as a result, he lit a little cooking smoke and estimated that the actual number of Chinese troops was less than expected, at most one or two thousand. So the heart of Yang Pan and meritorious service suddenly rose, so he temporarily transferred people and horses from Hande County, selected 800 elites, and planned to go down the mountain at dawn three days later to attack Huaying.

A soldier reminded: "In the past, the general of the martial arts examination broke the country, but it was a night attack...... Yang Pan shook his head with a smile and said: "How can I compare with the general of the martial examination?" The mountain road is dangerous and narrow, and it is difficult to advance and retreat, so it is inconvenient to go down to the pavilion at night to destroy the enemy - perhaps our dynasty only has General Wukao, and can have such a commanding ability. As for the attack after three days, it is the first time that the enemy is afraid of the enemy, and he is still vigilant, and if he sees that I am not moving, he will gradually slack off, and he can attack. ”

He thought very well, as long as he destroyed the enemy in front of him, he would be able to advance into Chuyang as before, even if with my ability, and the thousands of soldiers and horses under my command, I can't compare with Li Shou that day, most of them can't attack the city, but I can finally threaten Nanzheng and force Tao Kan to return to the rescue - if I get sold, the first credit in this battle is mine!

All in all, since there are not many enemy troops in front of me, and they are only suspicious soldiers, then I must not sit on the cabinet and waste the opportunity to make meritorious achievements.

But who would have thought that at dawn three days later, Yang Panqin led 800 soldiers down the pavilion road and crashed into the Chinese military camp, but he only saw the banner but no one - obviously there was cooking smoke from this for several days, and theoretically, this top at the front should not be an empty camp...... Immediately, a drum sounded, the ambush soldiers rose in all directions, and from a distance, I saw a general standing high on a horse, holding a long iron halberd, the armor was brilliant, and the helmet was inlaid with three five-pointed gold stars......

The general raised his voice and shouted: "The barbarian rat surnamed Yang, the Zhen of the Ru family is here with the master, do you dare to try the master's iron halberd?!" When Yang Pan heard this, he looked at the newly erected big curtain behind him, and saw the book "Tiger Ben Army Marshal Escort General Zhen", and couldn't help but be so frightened that he turned around and fled in embarrassment.

——————————

Zhen Sui set up a plot to make money and climb up, but in fact, it was also a temporary idea.

Originally, he was just impatient to recuperate in Nanzheng City, and at the same time, he was also worried that Ba Yi would encircle Wei to save Zhao's strategy, so he took advantage of Tao Kan's southward movement and sent troops from Zitong to attack Hanzhong, so he asked for a thousand soldiers and horses and ran to the Sword Pavilion to deter the enemy - as for attacking the pavilion, he had already fallen once and broken his legs, so he naturally didn't dare to think about it again.

It is precisely because of this that Master Zhen was worried that it would damage his prestige, so he refused to play the banner, and only let the deputy general Chen Jian come out. After setting up camp and going down to the village, Chen Jian came to ask for instructions, saying that our stall is too big, if we want to build more earthen stoves, pretend to light a fire for cooking to confuse the soldiers on the pavilion, I'm afraid there are not enough people, what should I do?

Zhen Sui glared at him and said, "How many people should be built, how many stoves should be built, why bother to build more?" ”

Chen Jian said that it can't be done, I have heard people say that General Gao Le also came here to be a suspicious soldier, but because the camp was large and the smoke was thin, Li Shou saw the flaw, and attacked overnight, resulting in a big defeat - Zhen Shuai should not make this mistake.

Zhen Sui pouted and said: "That cowardice is a shame in our army, his name, don't mention it in front of the master again!" Then he raised his head and wondered - am I afraid of a sneak attack? I'm not a Gaulle! If the soldiers dare to leave the pavilion and come, isn't it the master's heart, at least they can kill him for a while.

So he ordered, let's build a stove according to the number of heads, and there is no need to do much - just where to build the stove and where the soldiers rest, this can be said......

After thinking about it again, the cabinet is just an unknown general, not Li Shou, if I don't dare to leave the cabinet, it will be in vain for my hard work...... But maybe the other party is not looking at the old man in front of him, but Chen Jian, and he will be more courageous? It turns out that the old man does not play his own banner, because he has foreseen it...... I'm so thoughtful, I even feel a little scary when I think about it, hehe~~

After waiting for two days in a row, Zhen Sui was a little impatient, but fortunately, he didn't need to ask about things like the stove in person, so he did not change - as for the soldiers who had to go to the front camp to cook the stove, and then return to the middle camp to rest after eating, if there was any trouble, he didn't care, did anyone dare to come to the master to ask for an explanation?

It wasn't until the early morning of the third day that Yang Pan finally came out of the pavilion to attack, and Zhen Sui was overjoyed, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to carry him on his horse and tie it tightly with a leather cord - his leg was broken, and he really couldn't sit on the saddle bridge - he raised his iron halberd and shouted loudly in front of the battle.

- Zhen Suiben had an iron halberd, but he took it first for Hu Jiangping and couldn't take it back, so he always regretted it in his life, and then refused to remake it. In the battle of Meiji, Ping Xianben guarded Liu Yao, and after Liu Yao committed suicide, he also stabbed himself in the throat with an iron halberd and died-otherwise, it is estimated that even if Yang Yi set up an ambush, he may not be able to kill all the generals with one drum. When You Yao returned to Luo to offer prisoners, Zhen Sui ran to inquire about Ping Xian's whereabouts, and asked for the iron halberd, You Ziyuan said that I found Ping Xian's body, as for the general's iron halberd, how could it be found in the chaos. Zhen sighed, and then ordered someone to follow the previous style, beat the iron halberd, and hold the battle.

Let's say that Yang Pan fell into the wilderness and fled, the soldiers were defeated, Chen Jian led the troops to chase and kill from behind, the two sides were mixed together, and the pavilion did not dare to release arrows and stones. waited until Yang Pan fled into the pavilion, shouting and closing the door, but the defeated army was congested in front of the pavilion door and could not close it at all.

Zhen Sui originally planned to get off the horse and follow up from behind, but he didn't go far before he stopped.

Because the pavilion road between the big and small sword mountains, most of them are the plank road with wooden planks and piles chiseled into the cliff wall, and one side is on the verge of a deep stream. Zhen Sui can neither ride a horse nor walk, can only take the door panel as a chariot, take it in, but the plank road here is narrow, the original four pawns to carry it, but here can only be changed to two pawns......

As far as Zhen Sui's hammer figure, coupled with his heavy armor, the iron halberd refused to leave his body, and the ordinary four pawns carried it, and they were all tired for two or three miles per line, and they had to be replaced. As a result, after walking less than 100 steps, Zhen Sui was almost dragged down the cliff three times, which frightened him into a cold sweat, but he didn't dare to continue moving forward.

- The master is not afraid of death, but he also does not want to die inexplicably, or even become a laughing stock. It was already very unwise to climb the Great Sword Mountain for a while, if the Sword Pavilion went down, but I fell off the cliff and fell to my death, wouldn't it be too worthless?

Anyway, I'm just a thousand soldiers, can I not even go down to the Sword Pavilion, but I still have the luxury of hoping to fight Chengdu? Just continue to sit and recuperate in your camp, let Xiao Chen stop here and defend the Sword Pavilion.

Chen Jian naturally didn't know Zhen Shuai's flowery intestines, and even though he had the Sword Pavilion, he refused to give up, and hurriedly chased after him until he reached the front of Hande City. Zhen Sui's withdrawal order had just been delivered, and Chen Jian was still hesitating, when the city gate over there suddenly opened, and he asked to surrender.

Yang Pan fled until he was in the city, and only then did he catch his breath and have the energy to think about what happened next. The Sword Pavilion is both Ke, and it can be said that there is no danger to the north of Chengdu - although there are still dozens of miles of pavilion roads, but there is nothing to do, even if the Chinese army piles up corpses, it is not difficult to pass, he can't believe that the Chinese army is only a thousand people at this time - the general trend is going. And even if the lord of Cheng urgently sends reinforcements to defend Hande, or can gather soldiers and horses and stick to Chengdu, he will lose the Sword Pavilion and escape back will definitely be a dead end! In that case, why not surrender?

Anyway, it's Zhen Sui who came, not just a Chen Jian, and it's not a shame for me to descend to Zhen Sui......

When Zhen Sui heard the news, he dared to take off his armor at noon on the second day, when the sky was at its brightest, and ordered the soldiers to tie themselves and the iron halberd to the door panel with ropes, and dozens of soldiers in front and behind were connected with ropes.

Of course, before that, send someone to report to Nan Zheng urgently, and then Nan Zheng will report to Tao Kan urgently. At that time, Tao Kanfang went out of the mountains of Bazhong, and Li Shou led 10,000 troops to rebel, but he was led by Lu He and 3,000 elites to fight fiercely for two days, and he was forced to retreat and was forced to stick to Anhan. The Chinese army thus smoothly entered the relatively gentle hilly terrain and surrounded the city of Anhan.

Tao Kan called Li Shou to talk to the city, and Shen ordered him to open the city and surrender with the righteousness of obedience and rebellion. Li Shou said: "Tao Gong can conquer this city, so please come and attack it; If you don't stop for ten days, you will come far away, and the soldiers will be tired; If it is not conquered in January, I am afraid that the grain will not be able to continue, and the only way to do so is to retreat. Then I have a stubborn strategy, how can I surrender? ”

Who would have thought that the Chinese army would attack Anhan City from all sides, and it was less than ten days, when news suddenly came, saying that the Sword Pavilion had been lost, and it was up to China to descend...... Li Shou couldn't help but be shocked, and then smiled bitterly: "Today's me is like Jiang Boyo in the past......"
