The sixty-fifth episode, Zhang Yi's army besieged Liu Bei

As soon as Zhang Yi sent troops from Shouchun, he received that Xue Rengui and Guan Yu had a fight, and he immediately sent an order to Xue Rengui not to contact Guan Yu, and to attack after he arrived with his troops.

This time, in order to kill Liu Bei, Zhang Yi activated an army of 30,000 and marched towards Yangquan.

This time, he took Li Shanchang and Pang Tong with the army to participate in the military plane, and brought Wei Wentong, Shang Shifu, Lu Xun, and Meng Liang. As for the big housekeepers Liu Ye and Liu Muzhi, they stayed in Shouchun, prepared grain and grass, and transported them to Lujiang.

These 30,000 people are already the largest number of troops that Shouchun can draw, and any more will not be enough to ensure the defense of the Shouchun area.

Ten days later, Zhang Yi came to the Yangquan area, divided the army into two parts, and brought a main force of 20,000 men with himself, Wei Wentong and Pang Tong, and let Shang Shitu and Meng Liang and Li Shanchang lead 10,000 divisions.

While Zhang Yi surrounded Liu Bei's army, he let Yangquan's army surround Guan Yu's army. The army in Yangquan has exceeded 10,000 people these days, and it can be said that Zhang Yi sent 40,000 people to kill Liu Bei, which shows his determination to get rid of Liu Bei.

Zhang Yi's order has an exact time, he needs to surround Liu Bei and Guan Yu at the same time, so that he will not let anyone go, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, even if one of them runs away, it will be a pity.

Zhang Yi's agreed time was early in the morning, which meant that he needed to use troops at night. There is night marching training in the "Strong Military Drill Code", although it is rare, but the recruits will conduct many night trainings. Night battles are very frequent at this time, and it is not possible to do without training.

Zhang Yi and Xue Rengui acted together, and surrounded Liu Bei and Guan Yu overnight.

After surrounding Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Yi became happy. At this time, he didn't care about any kind of righteousness, in terms of actual interests alone, Zhang Yi had already gained the upper hand.

Zhang Yi had already begun to plan for killing Liu Bei at this time. He wanted to occupy Gushi Jiancheng as the first line against Cao Cao. Moreover, it is close to Xiyang County, Jiangxia County, and it can be attacked directly, and Huangzu can be attacked in two ways.

Originally, Zhang Yi didn't want to attack from here, because Liu Bei was here, and he could block Cao Cao. But Liu Bei doesn't want to be here, Zhang Yi naturally doesn't need to take care of it, he can completely take the city south of Huaishui here. Even in Xinxi County, north of Huaishui, you can get your hands on it.

The upper reaches of the Huaishui River are not very wide, the narrowest place may be four or five meters, and the widest is less than 100 meters. This distance is not worth mentioning at all for Jiangdong people who have seen the lower reaches of Huaishui and even the river. But for the northerners, it is already a great river.

In the famous battle of the water, the river is such a river, and in the eyes of the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the water is a small ditch. But in the eyes of the former Qin people, it was a river, so they agreed to the request of the Eastern Jin people to cross the river to fight, and they wanted to cross the river and attack.

As a result, the Eastern Jin Dynasty rushed through the river at once, and the former Qin people had not yet finished retreating, and were in chaos. As a result, there were still internal traitors, shouting that the former Qin was defeated, so the former Qin people were even more chaotic, and hundreds of thousands of troops were in chaos and were defeated by the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

The whole process was a contact battle, but it became one of the most disparate battles in Chinese history.

Many battles in which fewer wins are caused by accident, and the same is true of the Battle of Chibi. Cao Cao's army was not adapted, which eventually led to defeat. There has always been a debate about who put the fire in Chibi, some say that Cao Cao put it himself, and some say that Zhou Yu put it, and there has always been a debate.

In any case, this is a battle with less to win more, although it is not as ups and downs as written in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but it also has its special position in history.

When Liu Beijun got up in the morning, he found that he was surrounded by people, and he was a little dumbfounded. What's the situation? How did you get surrounded overnight? Didn't the sentry find out?

The sentry did not find it, because the moon was very bright last night, and Zhang Yi's army did not need to light torches at all to get to Liu Bei's military camp two miles away. Although you can hear a long distance at night, you can't see it. The people guarding the camp only heard some movements, so they sent people to check, but they were all shot by the archers who were in ambush by Zhang Yi.

Liu Bei had already received the news of the guards guarding the camp, but he didn't have anything to do. Of the many people who were sent out, only a few escaped and were wounded, they were ambushed.

Liu Bei didn't dare to go out to check on himself, he was afraid that he would die too. The suitable person in the camp is also suitable for Zhao Yun, and Chen Zhi and Zhao Yun must keep one person by their side.

After that, the generals in the camp were Liu Bei's two brothers-in-law, the Mi brothers. Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are not particularly powerful generals, Mi Zhu is Wen Shengwu, Mi Fang is Wu Shengwen. In the absence of people, they can still use one use, after all, the two are loyal.

As for Zhang Fei, he was left by Liu Bei to guard the city. Although Liu Bei wants to give up Runan, fighting is not an escape, and he can't take his family with him!

Liu Bei sent Zhao Yun out, Zhao Yun was very cautious, and his eyes were very good, he avoided a lot of ambushes, and checked four or five places, but in the end he was forced back.

That's right, he was forced back, because there were military formations all around, and he couldn't rush out at all.

After Zhao Yun returned, it was almost dawn, and Liu Bei got Zhao Yun's result and knew that he was in a crisis. However, he still waited for dawn to make a decision, but after dawn, Liu Bei was dumbfounded.

The surrounding sky was full of Zhang Yi's troops, and the antlers and military formations were lined up one after another, and they were unexpectedly spared for more than ten miles, surrounding Liu Bei's army in the middle.

Liu Bei's camp was originally very sparse, but Zhang Yi's military array was not sparse, it looked very tight, and the places where the antlers were placed were placed in several layers.

Liu Bei's heart was full of remorse, he really didn't expect Zhang Yi to hate himself so much, this was to kill himself! Liu Bei really regretted this moment and regretted the decision he made.

But he also hates Zhang Yi, I just wanted to be a show, are you like this?

After the hatred was over, Liu Bei was also a little at a loss. He is a battle-hardened person, and it can be seen that Zhang Yi has brought over elite soldiers. The soldiers stood outside all night, but they were still in good spirits, and they did not show any fatigue.

From this point of view, it can be seen that the elite of these soldiers has undergone strict military training. Only the White Soldiers under his own command can do this, and none of the other troops, including the White Horse Righteous Servants.
