Before the fall of Fuxian, Liu Zhang sent Fei Guan and Meng Da to defend Mianzhu. All the way from Fuxian to Chengdu, Liu Zhang sent people to guard, 20,000 people in Fuxian, 10,000 in Mianzhu, and Ruoxian County was the top priority, sending Zhang Ren, Ling Bao, Liu Bi, Deng Xian four people, leading 30,000 people to guard, and 60,000 people were released along the way.

As a result, there were not many soldiers and horses in Chengdu, so Liu Zhang asked Huang Quan to recruit new soldiers in Chengdu, wanting to resist through the terrain.

However, it is a pity that Wu Yi of Fuxian County surrendered, and Gao Pei of Jiang Youshu died in battle. The dangerous Fu County was lost without holding out for even a month, and Zhang Yijun only had two important military towns when he arrived in Chengdu.

After Meng Da and Fei Guan arrived in Mianzhu, they immediately reorganized military affairs and strengthened Mianzhu's defense. By the time Zhang Yijun arrived in Mianzhu, they had not completed all the defense plans.

Fortunately, Zhang Yijun did not directly attack the city, but cut down trees to build siege equipment. Di Qing and Fu Youde only brought some accessories for ladders and wells, and assembled more than a dozen ladders and wells.

But relying on the ladder and the well alone will definitely not be able to conquer Mianzhu. It was also necessary to build some crashes and trebuchets, and it took more than ten days to build enough trebuchets.

With sufficient siege equipment, the two immediately launched a siege, and stone arrows were constantly thrown at the city wall, and the defenders in the city did not dare to take the lead. Zhang Yijun took the opportunity to attack the city, but the terrain of Mianzhu was not conducive to attacking, and he returned many times without success.

After a few days of attacking, the news of taking Jiangyoushu came later, Di Qing and Fu Youde discussed it, and let Wei Rui garrison Fu County, and Yang Yanzhang went north to mourn.

After more than ten days of attack, Mianzhu was still impregnable. Just when the two of them were at a loss, Mianzhu Pass suddenly caught fire, and there was chaos in the pass, and the two were overjoyed and immediately stepped up their attack.

In less than an hour, Mianzhu was captured.

It cannot be said that the capture of Mianzhu was that the defenders in the city surrendered after seeing Zhang Yijun climb the city wall without any resistance.

Fei Guan and Meng Da came to meet Di Qing and Fu Youde, and Di Qing and Fu Youde asked why there was a fire in the city.

It turned out to be a coincidence, when a stone fell on a pot of boiling water on the top of the city, and the firewood flew down the city wall, and fell right into the firewood pile. At first, the defenders didn't pay attention, but when they found out, it was too late, and the two felt that this was a providence from heaven, so they decided to surrender.

All right! That's the excuse! The main reason is that neither of them is from Shuzhong, Fei Guan is from Jiangxia County, and Meng Da is from Fufeng. Although Fei Guan is Liu Zhang's brother-in-law, Liu Zhang is no longer good, he can't be buried with him!

It can only be said that Liu Zhang's relatives are not loyal. The main reason is that Liu Zhang's character is not good, if Liu Zhang is really the hero, he will not be in the current situation.

Mianzhu surrendered, Di Qing and Fu Youde immediately prepared to attack Luo County, as long as Luo County was conquered, the road to Chengdu would be smooth. However, Mianzhu couldn't leave someone to defend, so Fu Youde left Wei Wentong behind.

Di Qing and Fu Youde were about to march to Luo County, and the scouts came to report: "There are reinforcements coming to Mianzhu from Luo County, and the banners are Zhang, Liu, and Leng. ”

Meng Da is a thorough leader of the party, capricious, betraying his Liu Zhang is not uneasy at all: "These are Zhang Ren, Liu Zhang, and Leng Bao. ”

Di Qing and Fu Youde glanced at each other, and then asked the scout, "How many soldiers and horses?" ”

"About 20,000 people!"

Wei Yan said: "The enemy army comes to help, with the protection of the city without a strong city, it is the weakest time, our army should face the battle, defeat the enemy army head-on, weaken the military strength of Ruoxian, and reduce the morale of the enemy, then Luoxian can go down!" ”

Fu Youde also nodded, "Chief Wen's words are reasonable, let Liu Zhang see the military situation of our army!" ”

Di Qing nodded in agreement, "Wei Yan, you are the vanguard, Fu Youde is the middle, attacking Zhang Ren and the others head-on." ”

Meng Da stood up and said, "The last general is willing to help with the army!" ”

A trace of disdain flashed in Di Qing's eyes, but he didn't show it: "General Meng has a heart, but our army is different from other armies, General Meng can watch the battle with me in the rear army!" ”

When Meng Da heard this, he couldn't help but stagnate, and said with a little unwillingness: "The last general will take the order." ”

Di Qing took Meng Da and Fei Guan with him and took them to watch the assembly of troops at Mianzhu Pass. From the time the order was issued, in less than an hour, Wei Yan's army had already set off in full gear.

Meng Da and Fei watched dumbfounded, they had never seen such a fast army. If you set off lightly, most of the troops can do it, but Zhang Yijun is fully armed, and the armor and weapons are not falling, and it only took an hour to get it done, is this a god speed?

You must know that normal armies need to start preparing a day in advance, and then it takes more than two hours to load these things before departure.

Wei Yan was the vanguard, and he had already explored Zhang Renjun's camp halfway through, and he directly pulled the army outside the camp, resting for a while, and waiting for Fu Youde's arrival.

Zhang Ren and the three of them were also very confused about Zhang Yijun who suddenly appeared, they were puzzled about how Mianzhu was lost? No news at all. They didn't expect that it was Fei Guan and Meng Da who surrendered directly, and they were not notified at all.

However, the enemy army has already arrived outside the camp, and it is impossible for Zhang Ren and the three of them to watch them swaggering outside the camp to show off their might!

Zhang Ren said to Liu Bi and Ling Bao: "The enemy army is only a few thousand, I will go to the meeting for a while." ”

Ling Bao and the two nodded, "The enemy army is elite, General Zhang should bring some more soldiers." ”

Zhang Ren nodded, then gathered eight thousand soldiers and horses, killed them from the camp, and went straight to the place where Wei Yan rested.

When Wei Yan saw Zhang Ren leaving the camp, he immediately laughed, the reason why he didn't set up camp and directly led his troops outside the camp was to lure the enemy out of the camp.

This time, the goal of the battle was to defeat the reinforcements head-on, and the battle was an upright formation. If the enemy does not leave the camp, the combat goal cannot be achieved, whether it is attacking the camp or pursuing, it is not considered a frontal defeat!

Although the deterrent effect of the attack camp is greater, it cannot show the elite degree of our army at all! Only in the field can we truly show the ferocity of our army. Wei Yan wants to tell Zhang Ren that our army is the first in the field, and he will not be afraid of the cavalry, and he will be afraid that your little Shuzhong miscellaneous soldiers will not succeed?

Wei Yan waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately lined up the military formation. Just when Zhang Ren left the camp and was about to rush in front of Wei Yan's army, this military formation was formed.

Zhang Ren's eyes widened, he originally wanted to rush the enemy army and gain a foothold! As a result, as soon as he arrived, the enemy army was lined up, so how could he be amused? Zhang Ren marveled at the elite of the enemy army and also entered a dilemma. But at this time, he couldn't run away reflexively, if he ran away reflexively, he would definitely collapse the army, and Zhang Ren could only continue to rush forward.
