Chapter 237: Battle Zhang Ren

However, it is said that the name of the county guard is Zhang Ren, who was born in a poor family in Shu County, Yizhou, has few courage, has integrity, likes to dance with guns and sticks since childhood, and has some surplus funds at home, so he invited famous teachers everywhere, learned a martial arts, and when he grew up, he joined the army and became a partial general under Liu Zhang.

Because Liu Qi's army entered Sichuan, Liu Zhang ordered Liu Bi and Ling Bao to guard Qu Ren, but unexpectedly Liu Bi was killed, Ling Bao surrendered, Liu Qi's army drove straight into Mianzhu and occupied Mianzhu, Liu Zhang was frightened and ordered Zhang Song to Mianzhu to negotiate peace with Liu Qi, and then because he was worried that Liu Qi would not obey, and obeyed the construction of Huang Quan, he sent the general Deng Xian, the Zhonglang general Wu Yi, and the son Liu Xun to lead an army of 10,000 to support Ruxian County, and promoted Zhang Ren, the guard general of Ru County, to Yamen General, so that he was fully responsible for guarding Luo County.

After hearing the news that Liu Qi's army occupied Mianzhu, Zhang Ren had ordered the defenders in the city to actively prepare for war, and later heard that Liu Zhang sent Zhang Song to negotiate peace, and secretly sighed in his heart that the power was traitorous and misguided the country, and later after getting Liu Zhang's order, he was slightly at ease, and sent spies day and night to inquire about the movements of Liu Qi's army.

On this day, Zhang Ren suddenly got the news that Liu Qi's army suddenly marched south from Mianzhu, aiming directly at Ruoxian, and couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, but this was not because he was afraid, but on the contrary, it was precisely because he was excited in his heart: he was finally able to fight with this person who was known as the youngest and most mysterious person in the world, and who had never tasted defeat in his life.

"Hmph, Liu Qi, I, Zhang Ren, announced that your undefeated myth will end in me, I have contacted Xiang Cun, Fu Ban, Pang Xi, Zhang Su and others, they have gathered into an army of 30,000 people, once they hear the news that your army is out of Mianzhu, they will immediately wave their army to attack Mianzhu, and I, Zhang Ren, will be responsible for defeating your main force under the city of Luoxian, hehe, maybe your army will be defeated if it can't come to the city at all."

After hearing the news, Zhang Ren immediately ordered the generals to gather to discuss the strategy of dealing with Liu Qi.

In a moment, Deng Xian, Wu Yi, Liu Xun and others all came to meet Zhang Ren, and then they listened to Zhang Ren's orders, even Liu Xun, the son of Liu Zhang, now has no young master's shelf, and completely worships Zhang Ren with military salutes.

Zhang Renxian confessed to the generals, especially Liu Xun, and then sat under the seat of the handsome, and said in a deep voice: "Presumably the princes have received the news, Liu Qi's army has already left Mianzhu, and quickly marched to Luoxian, and from Mianzhu to Luoxian is only fifty miles, Liu Qi's army often marches in a hurry, according to the general's inference, at most before dark, Liu Qi's army can rush to the city of Luoxian, so we must be ready to meet the battle, this general knows that there is a small road in the southeast of the city, the most important, a self-lead army to defend it. The princes will guard the city tightly, and do not gain or lose. ”

After that, Zhang Ren led 5,000 troops, first to copy the path for ambush, the army was all prepared with strong bows and crossbows, not for anything else, but to snipe the enemy general, it is best to shoot the enemy general Liu Qi.

After a short time, I heard a light sound of horses' hooves, and then saw a soldier and horse coming slowly, Zhang Ren's heart couldn't help but thump, now as long as he shoots the enemy's main general, after the enemy army is leaderless, his own 5,000 troops can be one as ten, the enemy army will be defeated, so as to win this battle, and if Liu Qi is killed, it will be an immortal feat, because this will lead the huge forces under his rule to quickly collapse, and he can also take advantage of the situation to send troops to recover the entire Yizhou, And then it is not impossible to occupy Jingzhou and Jingzhou.

At this time, Zhang Ren became more and more calm, because he knew that the success or failure of life and death was in one move, if he could shoot Liu Qi, he would certainly be able to build immortal achievements, but once he failed, with this little man under his command, I am afraid that it would be a fluke to be able to save his life.

The opposing army slowly advanced, and after about a stick of incense, a young general on a white horse finally appeared in the army.

Although it is not clear from a distance, Zhang Ren has already learned after inquiring that Liu Qi is the only one of the generals in Liu Qi's army riding a white horse, and now this person is riding a white horse, hugging from front to back, plus the handsome flag in front of him is waving in the wind, it must be Liu Qi.

So Zhang Ren immediately ordered the army to attack, only to hear the red flag spread, and under the fire of ten thousand arrows, the general on the white horse was shot into a hedgehog in an instant with the white horse, and fell to the ground with a loud scream.

At the same time, chaos began to arise among the surrounding Jingzhou troops.

Zhang Ren laughed loudly and said loudly: "Liu Qi has been shot to death, sons, rush with me, today's battle is the time when our Sichuan army is famous all over the world." ”

After that, Zhang Ren ordered the sergeant to beat the drum, and he personally led the 5,000-strong army to rush over.

"Kill, make meritorious contributions, be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, in one fell swoop." Zhang Ren rode a red horse, holding a spear, and fought hard against the chaotic Jingzhou army, all of whom were not easy, but in just a dozen breaths, more than a dozen sergeants died under his gun.

The 5,000 army beside Zhang Ren also rushed over with a roar in unison like a tiger descending from the mountain, cutting Liu Qi's army into three sections and slaughtering the army in the middle.

They thought that the panicked Liu Qi's army would inevitably collapse in all directions, and this team would no longer exist, but they were surprised to find that the resistance of those enemy troops was so tenacious, but after a short period of time, the original panic was no longer there, and the formation gradually stabilized, stubbornly resisting the attack of Zhang Ren's army.

Looking at the Jingzhou army that was sworn to fight to the death, a trace of appreciation flashed in Zhang Ren's eyes, and he said with admiration: "Liu Qi's army is worthy of being the best soldiers in the world, and the main general can still be so calm after he dies in battle. ”

Zhang Ren saw that although Liu Qi was shot to death, the stubborn resistance of the Jingzhou army could not take much advantage, coupled with the fact that the enemy army was outnumbered, if this team was forcibly annexed, I am afraid that his own losses would be extremely heavy, rather than this, it was better to temporarily turn back to the city, and then defeat the defeated army with absolute superiority after gathering the army.

Anyway, Liu Qi is dead, he has no heirs and brothers, and none of the generals in the army obey anyone, it is a matter of time before he breaks up and splits, so why should he fight with him?

Thinking of this, Zhang Ren decisively ordered the army to retreat immediately.

Only the sound of gold was heard, and Zhang Ren's army immediately stopped attacking, and then slowly began to retreat.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, those Jingzhou troops who had been attacked before suddenly launched a counterattack.

If the previous stubborn Jingzhou army can also be regarded as an elite soldier, the current Jingzhou army is like a crazy tiger, its fierce Cheng is definitely not comparable to the ordinary team, these soldiers wielded the war knives in their hands, and the soldiers under Zhang Ren couldn't even block it, the weapons in their hands were like chickens and dogs in front of the Jingzhou army's war knives, and they were broken, and the excellent armor on their bodies was also instantly cut. Stump arms and broken legs are flying around.

"What's going on? Could it be that the enemy army is crazy? Or is it simply a ruse of the enemy? Thinking of the latter point, Zhang Ren's heart couldn't help but chill, and now he is not sure that he shot Liu Qi before: "If the one who rode the white horse was counterfeited by someone else, wouldn't I have wasted all my efforts today and lost so many people?" ”

Now, even if Zhang Ren doesn't want to retreat, he can't call the shots, because the slaughter of the enemy army like a mad tiger has already made his soldiers and horses lose their will to fight, and they all involuntarily broke and fled.

"Damn, I haven't figured out who the other party's main general is today, and I was defeated like this, I'm really unwilling, who should I seek revenge from in the future?"

Despite his unwillingness, Zhang Ren could only drink to stabilize the formation of the army and slowly retreat.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard an earth-shattering shouting and killing sound behind the formation, and then I saw a general riding a black-maned horse, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, and shouted at Zhang Ren: "Bold Zhang Ren, you shot my general Shen Yi, and led the army to kill more than 1,000 soldiers I recruited in Mianzhu, is it like this?" ”

Zhang Ren's face suddenly turned pale, it turned out that he had only shot a small Shen Yi, and the enemy soldiers he killed were only his own sons in Sichuan, and this ambush could be said to be a complete failure.

Shen Yi He has naturally heard of it, it is the brother of Shangyong Taishou Shen Tan, this person is a Shangyong family, but he is frivolous, he has always been greedy for money and profit, and he is really far away from other brothers Shen Tanlai, he originally planned to use him to recover Shangyong in the future, but he didn't expect this person to die at his own hands, even if Liu Qi is defeated this time, presumably his brother Shen Tan will definitely hate himself to death.

"Who are you?" Zhang Ren's face was deeply embarrassed, and he couldn't help but ask with a gloomy face when he looked at the only general who appeared in Liu Qi's army today except for Shen Yi.

"Didn't you want the life of your own officer? Why don't you even know this official? This official is Taiwei, Jingzhou Mu Liu Qi is also. ”

"Hehe, it turns out that you are Liu Qi, you came just in time today, seeing that Ben will capture you alive and force your army to withdraw from my Yizhou." Zhang Ren sneered, waved his gun and stabbed at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi smiled faintly, and casually brandished Fang Tian's halberd to meet him, but unexpectedly, the other party shook a shot, and he actually broke out of the encirclement and fled for his life alone.

Seeing this, Liu Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had calculated everything, but he didn't expect that this Zhang Ren was so calm, knowing that the situation was not good, he actually ran away decisively.

But Liu Qi didn't chase after him, but said with a faint smile: "But you can't escape today after all, because Pang Shiyuan is waiting for you in Luofengpo in front, hehe, this time I am very well prepared, the history of Pang Shiyuan's death outside the city of Luo County will definitely be rewritten, and you Zhang Ren, this time you will inevitably be captured." ”
