On November 7, 12,000 men led by Deng Zhong, the Marquis of Huitang Pavilion, arrived at Anchangting. On the 8th, Tian Zhang, who was at the rear, also arrived with a force of 5,000 men.

With the arrival of these 17,000 men, Deng Ai's army was once again restored to more than 30,000 men. Not only that, but the rear army also brought 2,000 war horses to Deng Ai, plus more than 1,000 war horses sent by the local family in Yizhou. Deng Ai's cavalry returned to the size of more than 2,000 men (not as many horses as there are cavalry, horses are far more squeamish than people, and spare horses are necessary). ）

On 9 November, Deng Ai's entire army marched south from Anchangting. On the 13th, they arrived near Chapan Mountain in the north of Mianzhu City.

Deng Ai's style of leading troops is generally close to Bai Qi, a famous general of the Warring States Period: he is extremely sympathetic to soldiers in peacetime, and the rewards of the court are shared with soldiers. But when it comes to fighting, the military law is absolutely strict, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be beheaded. However, because its implementation of military law in the army is basically fair, the children of the family and the children of ordinary peasant families are treated equally. Therefore, Deng Ai is very popular with the military, and his soldiers are usually a group of military ruffians who cause trouble to social security, but when it comes to marching and fighting, they are absolutely hard-working and brave in battle.

As a white-style commander, Deng Ai actually cares very much about the lives of the soldiers under his command. Therefore, although Chapan Mountain is only two small slopes with a relative height of only more than 200 meters, Deng Ai still sent a messenger to Zhuge Zhan to persuade him to surrender in line with the principle of not fighting a hard battle.

It's a pity that Zhuge Zhan is a peacock attribute. The peacock is not tasty and cannot be ridden, and when he turns around to reveal his bare buttocks, he is ugly to death. But at least the front is very glamorous and beautiful - because it is beautiful, it is extremely narcissistic and proud.

Because of such a peacock attribute, Zhuge Zhan's temper was much worse than Jiang Bin, who was sticking to it in Seoul. Jiang Bin faced Zhong Hui's persuasion, although the content of the reply letter was quite unpolite, at least the rhetoric was elegant. In the face of Deng Ai's persuasion, Zhuge Zhan was much simpler and rude: directly cut off the head of the envoy and let the deputy envoy send it back.

Then don't say anything, let's fight!

Chapan Mountain is two small hills with a relative height of less than 300 meters. Although the height is limited, the slope is still relatively steep, so during the Liu Zhang period, a pass was built between these two small hills, called Mianzhu Pass.

After Liu Bei entered Shu, it has become the mainland of Shu Han. During the reign of Zhuge Liang, in order to promote people's livelihood, private checkpoints in various places were strictly prohibited. Therefore, this Mianzhuguan is completely wasted. However, compared with the Mianzhu City, which has less than two feet of the city wall behind, this is already the only terrain that is favorable to the Shu Han army. Therefore, Yan Yu could only set up a formation here to intercept Deng Aijun.

The deployment of troops on the Shu Han side was as follows: Zhuge Zhan and Huang Chong each led 5,000 feather forests and set up formations on the two mountains. Yan Yu led 8,000 Yong'an troops to block the passage between the two hills. The son of Li Qiu, the right governor of Yulin, and Zhuge Zhan, who was only seventeen years old, led more than 1,000 county soldiers from Fucheng and Mianzhu to garrison Mianzhu City.

"Humph! Zhuge Siyuan, this bastard! The two armies are fighting without slashing, and they don't understand the minimum rules! I really don't know how Zhuge Liang's old thief taught him. That's it, inform the whole army of the deeds of the Shu thieves who killed the envoys of our army, and boost morale! ”

"No!"

After making full use of the value of the dead, Deng Ai turned around: "Now start issuing military orders!" ”

"I'll wait for the general's orders!"

"Sima led an army of 8,000 to attack the hill on the left side of the Shu army!"

"The master commands!"

"My son Deng Zhong led an army of 8,000 to attack the hill on the right side of the Shu army!"

"The last general commands!"

"The protector army led an army of 10,000 to attack the central front of the Shu army!"

"Uh...... Tian Xu received his life! ”

"I, together with the three Taishou and General Tian (Zhang), lead the remaining 5,000 men and horses and 10,000 people to press forward together!"

With Deng Ai's order, the entire Wei army quickly moved into action. Soon, for the first time, the entire Deng Ai detachment was displayed in front of Yan Yu, Zhuge Zhan and others in a complete posture.

"Fooled!" Seeing Deng Ai's army like this, the senior commanders of Shu Han still didn't understand that ten days ago in Anchang Pavilion, Deng Ai deliberately showed the enemy weakness - you think I am weak, and you want to put me in Pingyuan and annihilate me. Hehehe, it's a pity, not only am I stronger than you in individual combat, but I also have more troops than you!

"My soldiers of the Great Han! I'm Shang Shulang Huang Chong! Where are we now? In Mianzhu! Where is the 120 miles behind Mianzhu? It's the city! Where is the eighty miles behind the city? It's a CD! If we fail today, the CD will fall! If CD is lost, what will happen to our parents, wives and children?

Now, the Great General in the Sword Pavilion has received the news and sent the main force to support us! The elite corps of Nanzhong has also set off for the north. Until reinforcements arrive, we're going to nail it here! Hold here! Brothers, please show your blood, for the country, for your parents, wives and children, and fight to the death with me! ”

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! ”

Shi Su, who was leading the team to charge up, heard the turbulent roar from the mountain, and only felt bitter in his mouth. But there is no way, Deng Ai, as a commander, has taken all the tactics to the extreme, as a soldier, it is impossible not to fight a tough battle, right?

Facing the rain of arrows from the mountain, Shi Su also shouted for his soldiers to move forward bravely. Soon, the two armies were tightly strangled together.

Blood gushed out, and broken arms flew together. In a burst of screams, the Wei army led by Shi Su gave full play to the advantage of strong individual combat ability, and gradually pressed the Han army halfway up the mountain to the top of the mountain, and saw that it was about to cross the top of the mountain and press the Han army to the back mountain.

"Please Zhuge Repeater!" With Huang Chong's loud roar, thousands of crossbows were erected, and the large-scale firepower output of this ancient machine gun suddenly caused the Wei army, who saw hope, to be killed and injured in a large area. Hope suddenly turned to despair, and once the despair spread, even the most well-trained army could not hold on. Soon, Shiji's army was crushed to the foot of the mountain and irretrievably retreated.

"Hey! Falling short! "You can't attack again anytime soon. Shi Su shook his head, and walked to Deng Ai's location with extreme unwillingness to hand over the order.

Before he walked in front of Deng Ai, he saw several knife and axe hands walking out with Tian Xu, who was wearing a loose face, and saw that he was going to cut people.

"Zilian, why is this?"

"Hey, Yan Yu's Yong'an army is brave and good at fighting, and our army can't defeat it. General Zhengxi is going to behead me. ”

"How can this be true? Shi also failed to capture the mountain guarded by Huang Chong, is it possible to behead me? Knife and axe hand, leave people under the knife for the time being. I'll talk about it after the general goes to see General Zhengxi. ”

"This ......" can not cut the senior officer, of course, it will not be cut. But the main leader spoke: "Please ask Sima to be a little faster, otherwise it will be really difficult for his subordinates to do it." ”

"Of course. At most, a stick of incense will not embarrass you. ”

Hurriedly walked in front of Deng Ai, and the master had no time to speak. Deng Ai asked, "Zijing, how is it?" Have you taken down the mountain? ”

"Forgive the General! The enemy general Huang Chong guarded the law and failed to succeed in the first battle! ”

"You!" Hearing that Shi Su's side was also blocked from attacking, Deng Ai jumped up suddenly, but before Deng Ai could speak. Another disgraced figure rushed over: "Father forgives his sins, the enemy general Zhuge Zhan has a good way to deal with it, and the child failed to take the mountain where he is located in a battle!" ”

The "......" three-way offensive was all blocked. Deng Ai was extremely anxious in his heart: this is not Cao Wei's homeland, and if he loses the battle, he can hide in the strong city. This is the land of Shu Han! Don't look at these Yizhou families now trying their best to support him, but as long as he shows a trace of defeat, these children of the family who were still full of enthusiasm just now will definitely turn into fierce hungry wolves and pounce on him and bite him a few times - don't ask why, Cao Wei's family will only go even further when they encounter such a thing!

"General, the matter of Zilian ......"

"Don't mention that coward. He had the most troops and the best terrain. but faster than you all! From this, it can be seen that this person did not seriously engage in the battle at all. It's really innocent! ”

"General, having said that, Zilian is a protector after all!"

yes, he's a protector. What is the protector, it was Sima Zhao who was openly sent to monitor you. What are you doing when you kill him? Although he didn't fight, it was reasonable to kill him. But it's better not to kill if you can.

"That's it." Deng Ai waved his hand weakly: "Go, send someone, bring him back." ”

After arranging these, Deng Ai quickly recovered his senses: "Hmph, I originally thought that Zhuge Zhan and the others had been on the CD for a long time and had never been on the battlefield. It's just an embroidered pillow. Who knew that he still knew a little bit about the art of war. This is my underestimation. Now, let's change our offensive strategy! Rest assured, next time, we will be able to take the mountain and annihilate the enemy! ”
