Night falls.

Beiling Mountain.

This is a mountain peak with a low altitude, but the geographical location is very special, the front and back cliffs, relying on the back of the river, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the only way for Jiangxia County to Wuling County, at the same time, it is also a pass on the official road of Wuling.

In the night, a solid temporary camp was set up, in the camp, the top of the gate, the battle flag of Wu State, "trapped" in front, "North Character" in the back, moving in the wind.

Under the battle flag, the torches were shining, and the bright firelight reflected the soldiers of the Northern Army, one by one, sweating, and was haunting the front side of the mountain peak, building fortifications one after another.

In the first battle during the day, the Northern Army blocked the escape of the 30,000 Chu troops united by Guan Yu and Liu Bei with only 15,000 soldiers, and played the prestige of the Jinling Forbidden Army.

The Northern Army, the Southern Army, the Western Army, and the Imperial Forest Army are all Jinling Forbidden Army.

The Northern Army was the last to be formed, and it was also the most controversial, and after this battle, no one dared to question the combat effectiveness of the Northern Army as a forbidden army.

Gao Shun, the commander of the Northern Army, personally led the elite trap camp soldiers to block the front, and the once famous trap camp had disappeared from everyone's eyes when the Lu country ended, and now, they broke out once in an invincible style.

Invincible.

This is the belief of the trapped camp, and it is by no means an empty slogan, after a certain range of expansion, their combat effectiveness has indeed fallen somewhat at the beginning.

However, after the Battle of Youzhou, the Great War of the Western Expedition, the integration of recruits and veterans, has now recovered to the peak, and the trapped camp at this moment has even surpassed the tiger warriors under the car, the white horse righteous servant, the black armor elite horse, and the overlord iron horse. and other elite soldiers.

After all, these elite soldiers couldn't stop Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's joint attack.

And the trapping camp did it.

In today's battle, Liu Bei originally just wanted to quietly retreat, but he didn't expect to be played by Chen Gong first, calculated his escape path, and won the important pass Beiling Mountain.

On top of this pass, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, facing the Northern Army of Wu Guo, which is like a tiger in the way. They only have to fight hard, and in order to be able to fight for themselves, they use all their strength.

Liu Bei has three fierce generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Chen Dao, and the three of them take turns to fight, Gao Shun faces a Chen Zhi is in danger, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are jointly attacked. defeated the entire Northern Army, if it weren't for the desperate blockade of the trapped camp, I am afraid that Beiling Mountain would not be able to hold it.

It is precisely because of these peerless fierce generals that the northern army and the trapped camp have now suffered heavy casualties, and when the night came, the offensive withdrew like a tide, Gao Shun finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally held on.

He can only hope to use the entire geographical advantage of Beiling Mountain to defend now. So even if they are tired, they still have to work hard. Arrange fortifications, hoping to hold Liu Bei back.

"General Gao, a letter from the prince, from now on, the preservation of the strength of the Northern Army is the first priority, and there is no need to fight Liu Bei to the death. If the casualties in Beiling Mountain are too large, you can choose to let go of the official road pass of Beiling Mountain and let them go! ”

Gao Shun was supervising the construction of fortifications by his sons, when suddenly a Jinyi guard herald entered the barracks and reported Sun Quan's military order.

"What? Why is that? ”

Gao Shun heard this. There was a trace of puzzlement in his eyes: "Didn't the prince say that no matter what, he must block Liu Bei and them?" ”

Guan Yu is Liu Bei's brother-in-law and Liu Bei's subordinate, Sun Jian is not so much dead at the hands of Guan Yu as at the hands of Liu Bei.

Sun Quan's hatred for Liu Bei was felt not only by him, but also by the entire generals of the Wu army.

The revenge of killing his father is unforgettable, and he does not share the sky.

This is understandable, he does not believe that Sun Quan will let Liu Bei go.

"My subordinates don't know, but this is a military order from the prince himself!" The herald whispered.

"General Ben knows!"

Gao Shun is an ancient soldier with a modern suzhì, although he can't figure out Sun Quan's thoughts, but the military order is like a mountain, since this is Sun Quan's military order, he changed his style of play, and put his strength first.

"General Gao, General Hou is here, waiting in the camp!" A pro-soldier walked up and bowed down.

"General Huang is here?"

Gao Shun hurriedly commanded the soldiers to go to the defense, and he hurriedly walked back to the Chinese army camp.

"General Gao, this battle is enough to wash away the shame of the Northern Army!" Huang Zhong was dressed in a military uniform, with his hands behind his back, standing in the middle of the camp, and when he saw Gao Shun walking in, he said with a smile.

"The general has won the award, it was a dereliction of duty of the Northern Army, and Fang let the king be robbed, but now he just hopes to stop Liu Bei, and wants to defeat Liu Bei, but the Northern Army can't do it!"

Gao Shun asked: "I don't know where General Huang's troops are going, and when they will flank Liu Bei's Chu army before and after!" ”

"A certain army is already ten miles away!" Huang Zhong said: "But the prince has an order, don't attack, kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, Liu Bei has a complete army, there are many fierce generals, you can't win!" ”

"How's that good?"

"Don't worry!"

Huang Zhong's eyes narrowed, his gaze was cold, and he said, "Someone will clean him up for us!" ”

……

At the foot of Beiling Mountain, before the official road.

Liu Bei's camp.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

Liu Bei sat cross-legged, his back erect, his gloomy face could drip water, and his gloomy eyes burst out with a cold glow, sweeping over the generals.

"A Gao Shun can stop you, and you have disappointed a certain family!"

"Big brother, fight again tomorrow, and you will definitely break the Wu army!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei said in unison.

"Why did Wu Jun mention knowing about our withdrawal?"

Liu Bei was a little helpless, gritted his teeth, there was a trace of yin and unwillingness in his eyes, swept over everyone, and asked coldly.

"Lord!"

Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "There are many strategists in Wu State, Pang Tong, Chen Gong, they are all first-class intelligent people, it is not difficult to study our marching style, in comparison, compare hearts with hearts, Jiangling is lost, they are afraid that we will withdraw our troops, and if we want to retreat, we can only retreat to Wuling, so it is not surprising that they took Beiling Mountain in advance!" ”

"Damn Sun Zhongmou!" Liu Bei spit out a breath of cold air hatefully and asked: "Kong Ming, now that Beiling Mountain has lost its lead, if Huang Zhong's army catches up, we will be in trouble, but there is a way to get out!" ”

"Lord, it's not difficult to get out!"

Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes, his eyes crossed a trace of essence, and said in a low voice: "It is not difficult to cross Beiling Mountain, but if we want to escape to Wuling and Jingzhou, we will have some difficulties." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Sun Zhongmou is crazy now, the second general is the culprit who shot Sun Jian, in order to avenge his father, he will definitely stare at us!"

Zhuge Liang analyzed softly: "The Wu army is numerous, the army is strong and fierce, and not only the navy is strong, but the cavalry is also first-class and powerful, full of mobility, and comes and goes freely, as long as the red cliff ends, once he frees his hand, how can he let us leave lightly!" ”

"Do you have a good plan to deal with it?" Liu Bei gasped, but looking at what Zhuge Liang said was the Tao, it was clearly organized, and there was a hint of hope in his eyes.

"Divide the troops!"

Zhuge Liang thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "Lord, now, if you want to get out, you can only divide the troops, so as to rectify the zero, and divide the troops into multiple ways!" ”

When everyone heard this, their faces changed drastically.

Is this the rhythm of abandoning the pawn to protect the commander?

Liu Bei was also a little embarrassed at this time, he knew that Zhuge Liang was a good way, but now he only had these tens of thousands of soldiers, if it was broken into pieces, it would be able to converge smoothly, and it would definitely not exceed one-third.

He was reluctant.

"Lord, it's not good!" At this time, several pro-soldiers pushed Chen Deng's wheelchair, pulled up the door curtain, and walked in, Chen Deng's face was ugly, and said, "Liu Biao is out of trouble!" ”

"What?" Liu Bei was startled, his eyes widened: "What's going on?" ”

"The siege of the left flank released by Sun Quan, Liu Biao led his troops all the way south, and instead of taking Huarong Road, he came straight to us!" Chen Deng said: "The spies have reported that they are at most thirty miles away from us, and they can catch up tomorrow!" ”

"Damn it!"

Zhuge Liang had a flash of inspiration, his face changed suddenly, and he said: "This is the conspiracy of the Wu army, Sun Zhongmou is too insidious, they want to borrow Liu Biao's hand to deal with us, and when we are both defeated, they are sending troops to clean us up!" ”

"What a sinister Wu Jun!" The faces of the soldiers changed greatly.

"Liu Biao, you are a stupid pig!" Liu Bei was angry and could only grit his teeth.

"Lord, we can't wait!"

Zhuge Liang's thoughts jumped, reacted quickly, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Now we must act immediately, if Liu Biao kills us, we will definitely die, in addition to Beiling Mountain and Huarong Dao, we also have a road, which can lead directly to Wuling, and the subordinates request, cross the Ling River at night and avoid its edge!" ”

"Crossing the Ling River at night? We don't have a boat! Liu Bei said.

"The giant tree is suspended, hugging the wood and crossing!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness, and he said in a low voice: "Although there is danger, but now is the last way, how much can we live, how much can we live, how much can we preserve, we can escape from Jingzhou!" (To be continued......)
