In a fit of rage, Li Bi ordered Liu Wenzhou and Wang Wende to command 30,000 men to set out from Chengdu, while Li Yao returned to Liangzhou and led 10,000 men south to Hanzhong, intending to attack Chen Baxian's troops. But Wang Wende'www.biquge.info s experience is limited after all, and Li Bi is afraid that he is not Chen Baxian's opponent, so he struggles hard and cheers up, and sets out from Chengdu to supervise the front line behind his army.

Liu Wenzhou is an extremely smart person, he has already seen what Li Bi meant, so he said to Wang Wende: "Brother, the lord is not at ease with you, you had better ask for instructions and report late every day, which will be good for you." Wang Wende listened to his words and felt that it made sense, so no matter how big or small things in the army were simply reported to Li Bi, and when he showed that he was arranging it, you said that it was so troublesome, Li Bi was also very angry, and said that I came to you to lead the army to fight for me, and you have to report to me on this big and small matter, why should I use you? But it's inconvenient to say it, and it's all stuffy in the stomach.

Li Yao's 10,000 men entered the territory of Hanzhong after passing through Wuxing, Chen Ba had already sent scouts to attack Hanzhong, and when he learned that Li Bi's troops were coming to attack Hanzhong in two ways, he sent people to report to Gao Yue in Fengning, and began to deploy troops according to his own wishes. Gao Yue's momentum was very weak at the moment because of the tragic defeat in the Meridian Valley. Regarding Li Bi's invasion, he didn't have to worry about Chen Baxian for the time being, so he didn't assign any specific tasks to Chen Baxian, just let the messenger go back and tell him to give Li Bi a good look.

Chen Baxian felt through his own analysis that although Li Bi's army was powerful, it might not be able to beat him from afar, and when Li Yao's 10,000 people were in full swing, it was estimated that it would be difficult to deal with, so he planned to ambush Li Yao halfway now, and repelled his support soldiers, who would have momentum and psychological advantage when facing Li Bi in the back, so he left 1,500 people to defend the city, and he took 4,000 people out of the city to the north to ambush Li Yao.

Li Yao was young and vigorous and had never experienced any battles, so he had no experience in dealing with a veteran like Chen Baxian. After coming from Wuxing, the Liangzhou army connected several cities along the way, and defeated the Eastern Wei army, and two or three cities along the way were frightened and surrendered without a fight. This made Li Yao feel that he was not good, and he gradually lost his vigilance.

Hanzhong was originally very close to Wuxing, so within two days Li Yao had arrived less than fifty miles away from Hanzhong, in the west of Hanzhong Li Yao rested his troops, planning to drive the troops to Hanzhong City the next day, and then besiege the city in Lizhai, he was too optimistic and blindly looked at Chen Baxian's ability, and his subordinate generals also unintentionally reminded: "Why haven't we seen the main force of the enemy army come out to resist us in the past two days?" Li Yao said when he heard this: "They are all frightened by us, where do they have the courage to resist?" It's good not to run away. ”

That night, Li Yao's men and horses were still sleeping with their heads covered, but the camp outside the city was full of fire, Chen Baxian's men and horses came to rob the camp to burn grain, and the supplies of 10,000 people were moved with the large army, Li Yao was negligent in defense, and all his grain and grass were burned by Chen Baxian, which is not counting, his troops were also attacked by the Eastern Wei army, with heavy casualties, and nearly 1,000 people were killed and wounded, and their morale was greatly hit.

The day after Chen Baxian returned to the city, he received a notice from Gao Yue, who sent him a reinforcement force of 10,000 men from Fengning. At this moment, the situation was completely reversed, originally Chen Ba first wanted to focus on defense and supplement with harassment, but now his soldiers are well fed, and he can take the initiative to play with Li Bi. Li Bi's troops came out of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and came in the northeast direction.

The forward general is Wang Wende, Liu Wenzhou was transferred back to Li Bi's tent to obey orders, Wang Wende became a lone general again, and his men and horses changed from 30,000 to 10,000. However, 10,000 people are enough for him to use, and the general vanguard army plays the role of opening the way, so there is no need for so many people. Chen Ba repelled Li Yao first, and now he has to turn his head to deal with the menacing Wang Wende, and he also has a way to deal with such a veteran.

Chen Baxian deliberately set up several granaries and barracks on both sides of the official road, and sent more than 100 people to make a fool of himself, Wang Wende broke several such barracks one after another, especially in the nearest granary and seized a batch of grain, he felt that Chen Baxian was nothing more than that, in fact, how did he know that these grains were left behind when Li Yao retreated, Chen Baxian was deliberately luring the enemy to go deeper.

Sure enough, Wang Wende's vanguard army and Li Bi's army gradually distanced themselves, and even broke off contact during the period, Liu Wenzhou persuaded him not to rush forward, this Chen Baxian is not as good as Gao Yue, and the monkey is fine. Wang Wende didn't care at all, feeling that Liu Wenzhou was too cautious, and he was completely confident that he would take down this person, so he ignored the persuasion of others and left the main army without authorization, and pursued to the city of Hanzhong alone.

Chen Ba first asked people to pretend to be his own appearance and insult Wang Wende on the city tower, and sure enough, he fell for the trick and sent someone to challenge. Chen Baxian took advantage of everyone's attention to the battle on the city tower and scolded, and he took more than 3,000 elite soldiers to secretly detour behind Wang Wende, and suddenly launched an attack.

Wang Wende knelt in the camp in fear at this moment, because only he and a few more than 200 people were left in the vanguard of 10,000 people, and the others were either killed or wounded or captured, in short, the whole army was annihilated. Li Bi trembled angrily, and Liu Wenzhou also sighed and had nothing to say. As soon as Li Bi raised his hand as if he was about to give an order, Liu Wenzhou hurriedly knelt down and begged: "It is not good for me for the lord to behead the generals, and General Wang is also careless this time, but there are no other good generals who can be appointed at the moment, so you might as well give him another chance to make meritorious contributions." ”

Li Bi actually didn't want to order Wang Wende to be executed, but Liu Wenzhou pleaded with him again, Li Bixin said that he couldn't bypass this kid so easily, and he must give him some color. Thinking of this, Li Bi said angrily: "Having said that, he also committed a big crime this time, and he can't be spared easily. "In ancient times, the rod was one of the most common and brutal punishments, and the rods used to carry out the rods were thicker and stronger than the water and fire sticks used by the officials in the yamen.

In short, Wang Wende's thirty military sticks can be regarded as skin and flesh blooming, you think, even a burly and strong military man can't stand these thirty military sticks, if he were an ordinary person, he would have been beaten to death long ago. Wang Wende couldn't go into battle for the past two days, so Li Bi's army camped on the spot to rest, and after Li Yao learned the location of Li Bi's military camp, he also brought the remnants of the defeated army to a place with him.

Li Bi's idea was originally that he had the initiative to attack, so he could attack the city whenever he wanted, and he could rest whenever he wanted, but he miscalculated the number of Chen Baxian's army, because at this moment, the army in Hanzhong City was no longer three or five thousand people, but as many as 15,000 people.
