Chapter 978: A Last Battle

Longle City.

Liu Bei clenched his fists, so excited that his eyeballs were about to explode, and he couldn't wait for the scene when the Wei army was crushed by the torrent.

According to Zhuge Liang's original plan, Hong Feng would attack when half of the Wei army crossed the river, at least 3,000 Wei troops would die in the torrent, and nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses would be cut off on the west bank, and they would also fall into chaos.

At that time, Liu Bei will use all 7,000 soldiers and horses of Longle to fight out of the city, taking advantage of the situation to annihilate the 10,000 panicked Wei army.

After this battle, more than half of the soldiers of the Wei army will be annihilated, and the surviving Wei army will be more than 10,000 people at most.

Liu Bei has his back to Longle City, has 7,000 male soldiers, and has the momentum of a big victory, how can a mere 10,000 Wei troops be his opponent.

At that time, even if Su Zhe was lucky enough not to die, the only choice was to withdraw from Dunhuang in disgrace.

Then, Liu Bei will pursue in a big way, it is best to annihilate Su Zhe, and no matter how bad it is, he will also take advantage of the situation to recover the four counties of Liangbei.

This is the blueprint planned by Zhuge Liang.

Right now, the fire has been lit, Zhao Yunbi has dug the embankment, and Liu Bei is only one step away from his goal of reversing the world.

Suddenly, Liu Bei's eyes moved, and the excited expression on his face suddenly collapsed in half.

Because he saw that the Wei army, which was originally crossing the river step by step, suddenly had a strange movement, and the thousands of soldiers who had crossed the river suddenly accelerated away from the river bank, and the soldiers who were going ashore ran desperately to the shore, and the Wei army, which was still on the east bank, turned around and ran away.

"What's going on? Could it be that the Wei thief discovered our plan? Liu Bei panicked and looked at Zhuge Liang anxiously.

Zhuge Liang also frowned and was silent for a while.

At this moment, the upstream flood peak has been rolling in, and the party water in front of the east gate of Longle has overflowed.

In the blink of an eye, Hong Feng swept away nearly a thousand Wei troops who had not been able to reach the shore, filling the originally shallow river channel in an instant.

Seeing that a thousand Wei troops were washed away, Liu Bei's face improved slightly, and he hit the battlements with his fist, scolding: "Damn, at the critical moment, the Su thieves actually noticed our plan and only rushed away more than a thousand enemy troops, what can I do?" ”

"Su Thief's luck is really good, how did he see through the prime minister's strategy, I really fucked it!" Zhang Fei even burst into foul language.

Zhuge Liang raised his feather fan: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, although the Su thief has seen through the minister's strategy, we still have a chance." ”

Still a chance?

Liu Bei's expression perked up and looked at Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang's feather fan pointed to the front of the city, the 10,000 Wei troops who had crossed the river.

A glimmer of light flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, and he suddenly understood.

Although Hong Feng failed to inflict heavy losses on the Wei army, he cut off the 10,000 frightened Wei troops on the west bank, and if he came out of the nest at this moment, he would have the opportunity to destroy the 10,000 enemy troops before the Wei army's follow-up troops and horses crossed the river.

"The prime minister is right, it's not over yet!"

Liu Bei's killing machine ignited and shouted: "Yide Yunchang, you two speed all the soldiers and horses out of the city, and be sure to destroy the Wei army that crossed the river in one fell swoop!" ”

"No!"

The two brothers took it, hurried down the city, turned on their horses, and called for the gates to be opened, and the drawbridge to be lowered.

The 7,000 Han troops in the city rode on foot, followed the second general Guan Zhang, rushed out of Longle City like a tide, and rushed towards the 10,000 Wei troops on the west bank.

Outside the Xu, by the Longle River.

Xu Huang and his 10,000 soldiers were still running at full speed, desperately dodging the torrent rushing behind them.

Finally, after running for more than a hundred steps, the pursuit speed of the torrent behind him finally slowed down until it stopped.

The 10,000 Wei troops all breathed a sigh of relief, and the soldiers gasped for breath, looking at the rolling torrent behind them with palpitations, and they all secretly rejoiced.

"I didn't expect that Liu Bei would set up such a poisonous plan to wait for us, fortunately, Your Majesty saw through it in time, otherwise it would be over." Xu Huang wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, his face full of happiness.

At this moment, an earth-shattering sound suddenly sounded behind him.

Xu Huang turned around, only to see the wild dust rolling in, and countless Han troops swept in like a tide.

The 10,000 soldiers of the Wei army who had just escaped the catastrophe were all shocked and panicked when they saw the Han army coming out of the city.

Xu Huang frowned, his battle axe was horizontal, and he shouted: "The soldiers of Great Wei, quickly form a formation to meet the enemy, Your Majesty will definitely not ignore us, we will fight to the death until Your Majesty's reinforcements arrive!" ”

Xu Huang has always had prestige in the army, and these more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the Hedong soldiers who have been with him for some years, are deeply convinced of him.

Under Xu Huang's encouragement, the Wei soldiers barely cheered up, picked up the weapons in their hands, and hurriedly formed a formation, preparing to meet the onslaught of the Han army.

Longle City was extremely close to the river bank, and before the Wei army had time to form a formation, the Han army attacked like a tiger and a wolf.

The two armies collided, and on the battle line that stretched for more than 100 steps, countless streams of blood rose into the air, dyeing the sky red like a waterfall flowing backwards.

The screams burst out, the sound of weapons striking pierced the eardrums, and a fierce battle began.

Zhang Fei charged forward, the snake spear in his hand dancing like the wind, and the blade shadow passed everywhere, shattering the Wei army into pieces like ants.

In the blink of an eye, the Wei army's formation was broken through, torn into countless pieces, and fell into the unfavorable situation of fighting on its own.

Although the number of the Wei army was 3,000 more than that of the Han army, the soldiers were frightened, and the combat effectiveness was much inferior to that of the Han army in a hasty response.

And these 10,000 soldiers and horses are mostly infantry, among the 7,000 soldiers and horses of the Han army, there are nearly 1,000 cavalry, and when the formation is not in time, it can not withstand the impact of the Han army's iron cavalry.

Soon, the Wei army was completely suppressed, and the balance of victory was completely tilted in favor of the Han army.

At the head of Longle City, Liu Bei watched his army gain the upper hand and the Wei army that he killed was caught off guard, and a trace of pride resurfaced on his originally anxious face.

The corners of his mouth slanted, and he sneered: "Su thief, even if you see through my strategy, when I annihilate your 10,000 living forces, I will see what else you can use to fight me!" ”

The east bank of the party's water.

Su Zhe and his 20,000 cavalry also stopped, and they were finally able to turn around, looking at the torrent that was slowly fading.

"Fortunately, Your Majesty saw through Liu Bei's trick in time, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to evacuate the shore in time and would have been washed by the flood peak, and the consequences would be unimaginable." Ma Chao sighed with emotion.

"If it weren't for Meng Qi, you had been to Longle City and knew the water level of this party, I would not have been able to see through the tricks of the big-eared thief, Meng Qi, you have made a great contribution." Su Zhe wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead, obviously frightened.

At this time, Ma Yunlu suddenly pointed to the opposite side and said: "Your Majesty, look, it seems that Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have come out of the city, and they want to take advantage of the situation to annihilate our 10,000 infantry troops separated from the west bank." ”

Su Zhe frowned, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and sure enough, he faintly saw that the dust and fog were rolling on the west bank, and the blood was stained empty, and a fierce battle was going on.

"Your Majesty, the water level of this party has soared, and it is impossible to drop it in a short time, if we can't cross the river in time, I am afraid that Xu Gongming and those 10,000 soldiers are really in danger of annihilation." Ma Chao's tone became solemn.

Su Zhe looked at the surging water level in front of him, his thoughts were racing, and his mind was full of ways to solve it.

Suddenly, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
