The camp of the Shu army on the Qinling Mountains

The next day.

As soon as the day dawned, Shen Yi personally supervised the formation to let the Wei army charge, but he didn't know that this time he was facing not only Liu Min on the mountain, but also the resourceful Ma Zhong and the elite soldiers he brought. Ma Zhong calmly and calmly commanded with Liu Min, and the arrows and stones were used just right, and the Wei army was quickly defeated. Shen Yi was puzzled, it stands to reason that even if reinforcements arrive in Hanzhong, there are not many of them, why is it that today's Shu army is like a group of people, all of them are one as ten, and there are no arrows.

By noon, the Wei army was exhausted, and Shen Yi ordered the three armies to attack the mountain and come back to eat, and the Wei army was hungry, tired and hungry at this moment. Ma Zhong on the mountain climbed high and saw it, smiled slightly, signaled the flag bearer to raise the flag, and saw a red flag on the top of the mountain. Not long after, many "monsters" suddenly appeared around the granary at the rear of the Wei army. These "monsters" leapt from the trees or scurried out of the valley, their fangs bared and roaring, and in the distance the valley jungle let out a howl and billowing smoke. The Wei army was so frightened that they thought that they had alarmed the soldiers of the ghosts and gods here, and they fell from the sky, so they fled one after another. The "monster" took advantage of the situation and set fire to the granary of the Wei army.

Shen Yi was resting, considering whether to retreat or fight again, when he suddenly saw thick smoke billowing from the rear, and a sergeant staggered to his knees and stammered, "Report ..... Report..... General, a brigade suddenly appeared in the rear...... Ghost...... Ghost soldiers, put ..... ...... the grain and grass of our army" Shen Yi grabbed the sergeant, stared at him hatefully and asked, "Tell me quickly, what's wrong with the grain and grass?" ”

"Grain and grass are ....... by a fire It's burned! The sergeant was still terrified.

"Ahh Shen Yi fell to the ground in fright when she heard this, and the soldiers were also shocked. The mountain roads here are rugged and the roads are narrow, where do the ghost soldiers come from? Could it be the Shu army? Impossible, how did the Shu army fly over the sky and appear from the rear, could it really be a soldier of ghosts and gods from the sky? The more Shen Yi thought about it, the more scared she became, now that there is no food and grass, and the 20,000 army is trapped here, isn't it waiting for death?

Shen Yi was still in a daze, Ma Zhong on the mountain had already seen the smoke, clapped his hands and laughed: "The big thing has been accomplished, the generals can go down the mountain with me!" Liu Min and Lu Yi were also stunned, sure enough, there were divine soldiers descending behind the enemy?

Ma Zhong saw that the two of them were still stunned, so he smiled and said: "This time, there is a strong soldier in the south of our army, all of whom are wearing iron armor, can climb mountains and mountains, fly eaves and walk walls, and are good at using bows and crossbows. Boqi led this army down the trail, climbing trees and forests, and will definitely be able to go deep behind enemy lines, surprise them, and burn their grain and grass in one fell swoop! The stakes are very high, and it is inconvenient to explain it for a while, so I hope that the two of you will bear with me. ”

"What the general said is that the elite under the command of the prime minister is not a flying army?" Liu Min asked in surprise.

"Exactly!"

Wudang Feijun is the trump card army under the command of Zhuge Liang of Shu Han, and is known as the elite of the world like Cao Wei's tiger and leopard cavalry and Liu Bei's Baiyu elite soldiers. In the past, after Zhuge Liang conquered Nanzhong, he transferred more than 10,000 families from Nanzhong, who were known for their fierceness, to Shuzhong, and then screened and selected them, leaving the most elite part to form an army. The soldiers of this army were all dressed in iron armor, armed with shields, and wore fanged masks. He is good at using crossbows and poisoned arrows, is good at mountain warfare, and is good at defense. Whether it is a crusade against a rebellion or during the Northern Expedition, it can defeat the enemy every time it goes into battle, so it has the title of "Wudang Flying Army". In order to better restrain the fierce minority warriors, Zhuge Liang appointed Wang Ping, a calm and stern general of the expedition to the north, as the commander of the Wudang Flying Army. During Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition, Ma Tan lost the street pavilion and the whole army was defeated, and it was the flying army led by Wang Ping who fought to the death while beating drums to confuse the enemy, and successfully covered the other departments to withdraw from the battlefield, and he also retreated. Zhuge Liang's Fourth Northern Expedition ordered Wang Ping to encircle the south of Tun with his deputy division, and confronted Sima Yi in Qishan. Sima Yi led the crowd to meet Zhuge Liang, and sent the famous general Zhang He to attack the Wudang Fei army led by Wang Ping. In the situation that the enemy was outnumbered, the Wudang Flying Army fought bravely, so that Zhang He, the famous general of Cao Wei, had nothing to do; Zhuge Liang asked Wei Yan to lead the army to defeat Sima Yi, so scared that Sima Yi never dared to fight again, and he didn't want to make miraculous achievements when the flying army did it again. Zhang Wei helped Zhuge Liang select and supplement the soldiers of the Wudang Fei Army in Nanzhong, and it was precisely by relying on these strong soldiers that Zhang Wei was able to quickly quell the rebellion in Nanzhong. Now that Zhuge Liang has sent a large army to the north, these strong soldiers have also gone with the army.

Liu Min and Lu Yi suddenly realized this, and praised Ma Zhong's clever calculation. I saw Ma Zhong's banner wave, and in an instant, the drums on the mountain sounded, and the Shu army shouted loudly and rushed down the mountain. Shen Yi looked up, only to see that the mountains were full of Shu army flags, arrows and rolling stones were raining down, and Shen Yi, who had just been scared enough, was completely frightened at this moment. He didn't care about the command, turned around and took the lead and ran on horseback. As soon as the main general withdrew, the Wei soldiers also fled one after another, but the mountain road was narrow and difficult to walk, and the Wei army squeezed and trampled all the way and suffered countless casualties.

Shen Yi and his soldiers had just rushed to the valley, only to see that the valley was surrounded by smoke, and a group of "monsters" with wholesale fangs were guarding the valley, cutting off the Wei army's way back. They all held shields and wore iron armor, and occupied a dangerous position in the valley mouth. Suddenly, a Han general walked out of the valley, pointed at Shen Yi and scolded: "Traitor Shen Yi, I have been waiting here for a long time on the orders of the prime minister. If you know each other well, you can quickly arrest him, and go with me to see the prime minister, otherwise I will kill you without leaving a piece of armor! The speaker is the Zhennan general Zhang Wei, and this group of "monsters" is the Wudang Flying Army.

Shen Yi was startled three times a day, only to feel dizzy and fell off the horse. Zhuge Liang? How did Zhuge Liang appear here? Isn't he in Luoyang? I heard that Zhuge Liang has the ability of gods and ghosts, and can drive the soldiers of ghosts and gods, is the ghost soldier sent by Zhuge Liang today? If Zhuge Liang is here, there must be a large army with him, and my life will rest today!

Seeing that Shen Yi was stunned, Zhang Wei sneered and shouted, "Release the poisoned arrow!" I saw that the "monsters" were roaring and shooting all kinds of arrows, the arrows were poisonous, and the arrows in the Wei army were boiling, causing a ghost to cry wolf. Shen Yi hurriedly led the army to retreat, but the Shu army behind him shouted and killed again. At this moment, the Wei army was unable to advance, there was no way to retreat, and there was no food and grass, and the soldiers were tired, hungry and frightened, so they fled in all directions. Shen Yi could only abandon his horse and climb the mountain, and fled with dozens of his entourage. The rest of the Wei soldiers were either killed or wounded, and seeing that there was no way to escape, they had to shout for mercy, abandoned their armor and weapons, and knelt on the ground.

Shen Yi rushed back to Shangyong overnight, and found that the defeated soldiers who fled back were less than 2,000 people, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the city to defend himself, and was afraid that the Shu army would chase him, so he hurriedly sent people to Xiangyang to ask for help from Wenpin, the governor of Jingzhou.

Ma Zhong, Zhang Wei, Liu Min, and Lü Yi triumphantly escorted more than 10,000 Wei prisoners back to Hanzhong, and since then, Hanzhong's strength has greatly increased, and it has changed from a defensive to an offensive posture.

Ma Zhong pleaded guilty, Zhuge Liang appreciated it in his heart, but due to military discipline, considering that Ma Zhong did not miss the time for long, the loss was not large, and he had the merit of preserving Hanzhong, so the merits were offset and he was not investigated.

Although Ding Xian and Guan Yan lost their teachers and died, they were also loyal to the country, and ordered good students to be buried and treat their families well.

Zhuge Liang also ordered to blame Lü Yi for his ineffective supervision of the army, resulting in the death of the general, so he was removed from the post of acting governor of Hanzhong, and he was still the Taishou of Hanzhong. Lu Yi had no intention of being military, so he also resigned happily.

Liu Min, the general of the right guard, has the talent of a general, and has meritorious service in protecting the territory, Zhuge Liang promoted him to be the governor of Hanzhong, the general of Zhenyuan, and the Marquis of Yunting, just like Liu Bei promoted Wei Yan in the past. In this way, Liu Min and Lu Yi are one article and one martial arts, and they jointly guard Hanzhong, and Hanzhong has no worries all the way.

At the same time, news came that Fu Kuang, the general of Zhendong of the Shu army, and Hu Ji, the general of Weinan, were fighting in danger at Yique Pass south of Luoyang, and the Wei army had no choice but to retreat. Later general Liu Yong and general Dong Que also used strong bows and crossbows to defend Mengjin Pass north of Luoyang, and the Wei army returned in vain.

Since then, Cao Wei's five-way army has retreated to four routes, leaving only 150,000 soldiers and horses led by Cao Rui himself, and Zhuge Liang confronted him in Luoyang.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang's army is about to be gathered, a-for-tat and evenly matched decisive battle is about to start.
