Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Whole Army Strikes
A solemn and fearful feeling had spread throughout the Wei army at this time, and the news of the failure of the attack in front had spread to every soldier, especially the scene of hundreds of iron crossbow arrows flying down from the city wall in the back, which had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of every Wei soldier. www.biquge.info The soldiers couldn't figure out how the soldiers couldn't figure out this phenomenon, and later the Wei soldiers thought that there were gods helping the defenders in the Pujia Pass, and after this statement quietly spread in the army, the fear in the soldiers' hearts became more serious.
Xiahou Yuan was sitting cross-legged on a general platform erected in the army at this time, and there were two rows of generals sitting in front of him, including Xiahou Yuan, all the generals on the general platform looked lonely at this time. Indeed, it can be said that everything was fine during the whole attack, but everyone didn't know why there was a sudden scene of arrows raining down above the enemy's city walls, and then their own side was suddenly defeated, everything was so sudden, there was no time to react, and it was defeated.
"Generals, what do you think about this?" Xiahou Yuan coughed, and then said. This attack on Pujia Pass was suggested and approved by Xiahou Yuan, and now that it has failed, of course he has to bear most of the responsibility, but at this time, Xiahou Yuan is very unwilling in his heart, everything is as he expected, but his side failed so suddenly, Xiahou Yuan can't figure it out, do you want to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Xiahou Yuan can't make up his mind at this time.
"General Xiahou, in the attack just now, our army suffered nearly 5,000 casualties, especially in the end, in less than a quarter of an hour, we suffered casualties of 2,000 elite soldiers!" Xu Huang said very sadly.
"Everyone doesn't know why, no one has ever seen that kind of scene of arrows raining down, and no one knows how terrifying it is, dense flying arrows fly down their heads, and our soldiers have no place to hide at all, wave after wave, endless, it's really terrifying, it's terrifying." After General Xu Huang finished speaking, he smashed the table hard, and the power was so great that the people sitting opposite him could feel the vibration of the table.
"Now there is a rumor in the barracks that there are gods helping each other in Pujia Pass, all the soldiers have a fear of Pujia Pass, if they continue to send troops to attack, I am afraid it will backfire, General Xiahou, I suggest that we immediately stop attacking Pujia Pass, and wait until we understand the origin of the matter before attacking."
Xiahou Yuan sat on the platform, the expression on his face kept changing, and after General Xu Huang finished speaking, he looked at his mouth and asked:
"I wonder what the generals think about this matter?"
"We all agree with General Xu Huang's statement." The generals said in unison. No one wants to lead their troops to attack again until they figure things out, and no one wants to experience that kind of scene where arrows rain down and there is nowhere to dodge.
Xiahou Yuan also had no choice at this time, even though he was very reluctant to stop the attack on Pujia Pass now, but all the generals and soldiers under his command had a sense of fear, if they didn't understand what was going on, it would only increase casualties in many people.
"General Xu Huang, you can send me all the local scouts in Hanzhong that you have cultivated during this period of time, no matter what method you take, you must find out what is going on, and you must do it as soon as possible." Xiahou Yuan said.

Du Raid has been in General Zhang Ren's military tent for a while, there are only these two people in the military tent, Liu Xuan and Deng Xian, the two generals outside the military tent, can only hear a few occasional laughter from the military tent, but what is said is really nothing can be heard, but the two people can feel that the two people in the military tent should be talking well, it seems that the plan that General Zhang Ren told them is now being implemented well, the two people thought of this and looked at each other, and smiled knowingly.
After another half an hour, the curtain of the military tent was opened from the inside, Du Xi walked out of it with a smile, and General Zhang Ren also walked out.
"General Zhang Ren, then everything will be done according to what we say. I will now return to the camp and wait for General Zhang Ren's army. After Du Raid came out, he said with a smile in the face of General Zhang Ren.
"Okay, General Du Xi. Then I will give the order, and the army will be drawn in an hour. General Zhang Ren said.
After hearing what Zhang Ren said, Du Xi arched his hand towards Zhang Ren, and then arched his hand to the two generals next to him, Liu Bi and Deng Xian, and immediately got on the horse and left.
"General, how's it going?" Liu Bi asked.
After seeing Du Xian leave, Zhang Ren laughed out loud and said with a smile:
"Everything is in the plan of the military division. Liu Bi and Deng Xian, you two immediately ordered the whole army, and an hour later, the army marched and went to the enemy camp. ”

After seeing the tips given by the military advisor, General Ma Chao immediately led the soldiers to rush to Pujia Pass, and naturally did not dare to delay for a moment. After several days of rapid marching, General Ma Chao led his 5,000 soldiers to a certain mountain range between Pujia Pass and the two camps that were built at the beginning, and after arriving here, General Ma Chao ordered the soldiers to rest in place, and the soldiers were very tired after several days of rapid marching, and they were just resting at this time.
The mountain range here is very close to Pujia Pass, standing on this mountain ridge and looking in the direction of Pujia Pass, you can already vaguely see Pujia Pass. General Ma Chao stood on the mountain ridge, thinking about the strategy written in the military advisor's bag, which said that he could lead half of the soldiers to return to Pujia Pass, go to this place to ambush, wait for the signal of the military division, the signal is a bright light in the night sky, and after seeing the signal, he will lead the soldiers to charge the enemy.
General Ma Chao also had some hesitation after seeing the military division's tips, especially what was written on it about a bright light in the sky at night, how could there be a bright light in the sky, but although there were some doubts and hesitations, General Ma Chao still implemented the strategy of the military division, and there was no other reason, that is, because since Ma Chao followed the military division, every strategy made by the military division could be perfectly realized, and this was enough to make the little hesitation in Ma Chao's heart completely dissipate.
Listening to the shouting and killing sound from the direction of Pujia Pass, Ma Chao knew that he was not late, but he was a little relieved in his heart, and he didn't know how the battle in Pujia Pass was going now, whether he could resist the enemy's attack, although at this time he wanted to lead the army out to beat the enemy fiercely, but he had not yet seen the signal of the military division, Ma Chao knew that he had to endure it at this time, and if he wanted to win the final victory, it was best to follow the strategy of the military division.

"Haha, this weapon you brought is really powerful! After a few waves, there were almost no standing enemy troops under the city wall, and now think about the appearance of the enemy troops under the city holding their heads and rats, which is really happy! General Wei Yan said happily in the Pujiaguan meeting hall.
"Yes! I've never seen anything so powerful! Twenty repeaters, two hundred iron crossbow arrows fired at the same time, a wave can kill hundreds of enemies, no wonder the enemy will be defeated and flee. Ha ha! General Lei Tong on the side also said very happily.
Shi Yuan looked at the generals in the council hall, and he was very happy in his heart, and said with a smile on his face:
"I didn't expect this repeater to be so powerful!" Shi Yuan really didn't expect that although in the records of later generations, how powerful the Zhuge Repeater was, but after seeing the actual effect, Shi Yuan also sighed in his heart, and kept saying in his heart that this weapon was indeed very NB.
"Now that the enemy army has fled in a rout, morale has been greatly affected, and we are completely ignorant of the specific situation in Pujia Pass, it is a good time for us to destroy the enemy army. General Wei Yan, you will lead 10,000 soldiers to attack the enemy troops outside the pass tonight, remember that the attack must be fierce and ruthless. After General Wei Yan's attack began, two generals, Lei Tong and Wu Lan, you led 4,000 soldiers to attack the enemy's left flank, and two generals, Meng Da and Chen Shi, you led 4,000 soldiers to attack the enemy's right flank. Remember, the defeat of the enemy is tonight, and the generals must work together, and I am here to wait for the triumphant return of the generals. ”
"No!" All the generals shouted in unison.
At night, the gate of Pujia Pass was quietly opened, and General Wei Yan led 10,000 soldiers, with titles and horses, to quietly rush towards the enemy outside the pass. The dark night is the best cover, 10,000 soldiers quietly came to the place where the Li Wei army was stationed a hundred steps away, and with General Wei Yan's order, thousands of rockets flew towards the enemy camp like meteors.
