After defeating Zhang Ren, Liu Qi led the army to the city of Luoxian County, surrounded the city for attack, how could the terrain of Luoxian County be dangerous, and it was impossible to attack it in a hurry for a while.

It was only then that Liu Qi found that the defenders in the city were twice as many, although they still had an advantage in terms of troops, but they had no choice but to defend the other side and refuse to go out of the city to fight, Liu Qi also had a way every day, so he had to lead the army to surround the city, and ordered Gan Ning to lead the army to cut off its grain road reinforcements, so that the county became a lonely city, and waited for the enemy to cut off the grain and grass before finding a way.

At this time, Zhang Song had returned to Chengdu, he learned that Liu Zhang listened to Huang Quan's persuasion and sent a large number of reinforcements to Luo County, and he couldn't help but be shocked, but because Liu Qi had refused to negotiate peace, he had no way to persuade Liu Zhang to withdraw from the army, so he had to work with Fa Zheng and Meng Da day and night to come up with a clever plan to help Liu Qi, they thought about it, and finally had to decide that Meng Da took the initiative to ask for his life, and led a support army to Luo County to respond, open the city gate when necessary, and let Liu Qi's army enter the city.

Fortunately, this time Liu Zhang heard that Zhang Ren in Ruoxian County was defeated and the grain route was cut off again, so he was worried about the safety of the other place, so he agreed.

Meng Da and Fa Zheng led an army of 5,000 to Ruxian in high spirits, but they helplessly found that Zhang Ren had taken precautions against them because their friend Zhang Song had advocated peace with Liu Qi before, and Zhang Ren worked tirelessly and always patrolled the camp in person, so they could not succeed for a while, so they could only secretly write to Liu Qi and ask him to wait quietly for the opportunity to come.

Liu Qi already knew that Zhang Rennai was the number one general in Sichuan, and he already knew that this person was both wise and brave in the last battle, calm, and very quick to see the opportunity, it was not surprising that he could have such a reaction, but fortunately, he learned that Fa Zheng and Meng Da had come to Luo County as an internal response, as long as he waited quietly, the opportunity would come soon.

At the same time, Pei Qian and Huang Zhong's army also completely defeated Yonghong's army under the attack from the north and south, and beheaded Yonghong.

It can be said that the entire battle situation is now developing in the direction of Liu Qi's favor, but Liu Qi did not relax at all, because he got a message: in the north, Xiang Cun, the magistrate of Fuxian County, Zhang Su of Guanghan, Pang Xi, the Brazilian guard, Gao Pei and Yang Huai, Zitong Taishou Fuban and others gathered 30,000 troops and began to attack Mianzhu garrisoned by Huo Jun in turn.

Liu Qi was shocked when he heard the news, he didn't expect Liu Zhang to suddenly be so crazy, and he did not hesitate to kill chickens and eggs to levy such a huge army, and put up such a fierce resistance to himself.

According to the original historical memory, only 10,000 military horses attacked Huo Jun and Xiang Cun, but Huo Jun finally won after defending for a year, but the number of troops now is far beyond his imagination, plus there are famous generals in Shu such as Gao Pei and Yang Huai in the enemy army, I really don't know if the other party can hold it?

And it turns out that Liu Qi's worries are superfluous, because since he was ordered, Huo Jun immediately tried his best to prepare to defend the city, and when the news spread to all places, the Zhulu army came to Fuxian County after the turn, and the time had already passed more than half a month, Huo Jun united the soldiers, and mobilized the people to rush to make the city defense equipment day and night, including large city defense equipment such as stone throwing carts and bed crossbows, as well as rolling logs, stones, cloth curtains, Semen knife carts, fork rods, etc., in the only wide place outside the city gate, He also built and laid a large number of hoofs, astringencies, horse pits, antlers, horse rejection, thistles, iron water chestnuts and other objects, these fortification equipment caused the enemy to suffer a lot.

This army by the Brazilian Taishou Pang Xi as the commander, the army of 30,000 mighty and mighty, before coming to the city to suffer a lot, their horses have stepped on the hooves, astringent, thistle, iron water chestnut and other things, screaming and running around, the formation is chaotic, finally restrained the soldiers and horses, re-arranged the formation, but in front of the encounter a trap pits, not only horses, many soldiers fell, were stabbed to death by the antlers and horse rejecting pistols and other things that were secretly clothed inside.

Just by coming to the city from a wide place outside the city, Pang Xi's army of 30,000 actually lost hundreds of people, which made him feel deeply humiliated, and in a fit of rage, he immediately led a large army to attack the city.

But before they could erect the ladder, hundreds of people were killed by a rain of arrows, and the huge bed crossbows and stone throwers were specially thrown into the crowded places, and many soldiers and horses were either shot like sugar gourds by the bed crossbows, or were smashed by huge stones to the flesh and blood.

After that, Pang Xi's army finally began to climb over the city wall, but all kinds of rocks and rolling logs began to fall down lifelessly, and some soldiers took oil pots and poured them on the enemy's siege engines and ladders, and then ordered the soldiers to light the torches and throw them down, and the raging fire immediately burned those siege equipment to ashes, and even some nearby soldiers suffered with it.

The first round of attacks took two full hours, and Pang Xi's army failed to successfully climb to the top of the city. In desperation, Pang Xi had no choice but to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

In the next three days, Pang Xi led the soldiers to attack Mianzhu, but every time they returned with a feather, on the third day, the army once crashed open the city gate, but I didn't expect to see the Saicheng knife car was pushed out, firmly blocking the city gate, and more soldiers hid behind the reverse car to release arrows, Pang Xi's army struggled to attack for a long time, although unwilling, but also helpless to withdraw the troops.

After nearly ten days of hard work, Pang Xi saw that the strong attack did not work, so he quietly ordered hundreds of strong men to dig the tunnel quietly, but he was unexpectedly discovered by Huo Jun, dug a horizontal ditch in advance, and dragged out the hundreds of strong men who were digging the tunnel with hooks to kill. He also piled up firewood outside the ditch, prepared the fire, and found that the enemy army was lurking in the tunnel, so he stuffed the firewood into the tunnel, threw it into the fire, and blew the wind with the help of the skin, and immediately saw that the smoke of the fire burned the enemy soldiers in the tunnel to the point of burning, and it was unbearable to see.

After the failure of digging the tunnel, Pang Xi still felt unwilling and prepared to attack with fire, but Huo Jun had already prepared, and ordered the soldiers to use a long rod to hook off the burning pine branches and other things, Pang Xi burned the city gate again, Huo Jun ordered the soldiers to throw the water bladder made of pig or cow clothes that had been prepared under the city gate, the bag broke out, and the fire was immediately extinguished.

Pang Xi exhausted all kinds of means, but not only failed to break through Mianzhu, but lost his troops, and in three months, the 30,000 army lost more than 5,000, and he couldn't help but scold angrily, but what is the use of this? It only adds to the troubles.

Later, Pang Xi listened to Zhang Su's advice and sent an envoy to the city to persuade him to surrender, but Huo Junli ignored it, and immediately ordered the messenger to be beheaded, and then hung the body of the messenger on the head of the city to show the public.

Pang Xi suddenly lost his fighting spirit, so he had to order the army to surround the city, cut off the grain route of Mianzhu, and prepare to wait until Mianzhu ran out of grain before trying to find a way to lure the soldiers in the city to surrender, fortunately, he heard that Liu Qi's army under the city of Yuxian is also using the same means, anyway, his own grain route is smooth, the supply of grain and grass is sufficient, compared to Liu Qi's army, it has an advantage, as long as Mianzhu City or Liu Qi's army runs out of food, this battle has become a must-win situation.

But Pang Xi didn't expect that only half a month later, the 10,000 grain soldiers led by Wen Ping suddenly came to Mianzhu City, and divided the army of 5,000 to launch an attack on the army under his command by surprise.

Originally, Pang Xi thought that the enemy army was only 5,000 grain carriers, how strong could it be? So I didn't put the other party in my eyes at all, but I didn't expect Wen Ping to be worthy of being a famous general in Jingzhou, and all the soldiers under his command were incomparable, plus many of them were equipped with powerful crossbows and Su iron knives, Pang Xi's more than 20,000 people couldn't resist the enemy, and they were intimidated by the momentum of the other party, and they began to retreat without a stick of incense in the battle.

And at this moment, the city gate creaked open, and Huo Jun led more than 2,000 people out of the city to respond, and launched a front and rear attack with Wen Ping against Pang Xi's army, and Pang Xi's army was even more invincible and fled one after another.

Wen Ping and Huo Jun took advantage of the victory to pursue, killing more than 10,000 enemy soldiers, the enemy general Fu Ban, Xiang Cun was killed, Zhang Su and Gao Pei were captured, Yang Huai was seriously injured, Pang Xi was hit by an arrow in the back, and the 30,000 army retreated.

When the news of Huo Jun's victory in Mianzhu reached the city of Mianzhu, Liu Qi's army was full of jubilation, and their morale suddenly soared, and all the generals under his command expressed their admiration for Liu Qi's ability to know people, Zhuge Jin and Kan Ze were even more convinced, and from then on, they were even more loyal to Liu Qi.

Liu Qi was also overjoyed, he didn't expect Huo Jun to be able to attack with 30,000 enemy troops at the moment, and also achieved such brilliant results, and immediately ordered Huo Jun to be rewarded, given tens of millions of money, rewarded with 10,000 silk horses, and was named Zhijiang Hou, and was promoted to Guangwu General and Xinye Hou.

Liu Qi was naturally pleasantly surprised when he heard the news of Huo Jun's victory, but Liu Zhang and Zhang Ren's reactions were completely different, even Zhang Ren, who has always been calm and calm, couldn't help but scold Pang Xi for being incompetent when he heard the news, and at the same time, a deep sadness also rose in his heart: It seems that this time Yizhou is difficult to protect.

Liu Zhang was even more frightened, he had now completely lost his sense of proportion, although he knew that there was still Yuxian County as a barrier against Chengdu, but he knew that the barrier was almost like paper paste, and it could be torn to shreds at any time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what should we do now?" Liu Zhang's face couldn't help but turn pale, and said with a wry smile: "The attack on Mianzhu failed, Liu Qi's grain route has been unimpeded since then, although there is Zhang Ren in Luo County, but it is also precarious, and Huang Zhong and Pei Qian have even killed in Qianwei County, I Chengdu is facing a two-sided threat, can the lord have a clever plan to retreat from the enemy?" ”

At this time, Zhang Song stepped forward and arched his hand and said: "Lord, for the sake of today, it is better to surrender, this may be the only way out in front of us." ”

Liu Zhang nodded, and just wanted to speak, but suddenly heard a person shouting: "Lord, this matter must not be done." ”
