Chapter 55: Run, run, if you don't run, the sky will be bright, and we will be in trouble
This is destined to be a sleepless night, and it is also a night of long sleep for many people. Within a radius of four or five miles in the western suburbs of Chengdu, the Grim Reaper hid in the darkness and snatched one life after another, he jumped happily, but at this time Liu Yan's heart fell into a standstill. The army on the right was stirred up by Chen Lin in a mess, originally thought that he could take the opportunity to attack the city to take Chengdu, but he didn't expect that the city was greeted by a fierce smashing of horizontal logs and bows and arrows, and the army with a posture of at least three thousand was at the head of the wall. Didn't Chen Lin's army go out of the city, didn't he come out to save that ungrateful and damned Zhang Wei. Liu Yan was thundering and insulting, only Huang Quan knew that the figure on the city wall of Chengdu should be Yang Huai. Liu Yan didn't listen to Huang Quan's words, and rushed to support Zhang Ren and Liu Fan, but instead desperately wanted to attack the city, two hours passed, and the scout reported that Zhang Ren was about to collapse, and Liu Fan was even more problematic to save his life, but Liu Yan was not much better here.
It was the dead of night, but at this time it was full of wolves and ghosts, and those who were not determined to be determined listened to it with grief, and began to cry loudly. On the city wall of Chengdu, Zhang San and Li Si are authentic Chengdu people, countrymen, who were drawn into the army half a year ago. When the Hanzhong soldiers and horses raided Chengdu, Qu Chang was killed, Zhang San and Li Si were unwilling to fight, surrendered decisively, and were imprisoned in the prisoner camp. I didn't expect to be a prisoner of Hanzhong to eat even better than before, Zhang San and Li Si, like most people, even wanted to be prisoners like this for the rest of their lives, but they couldn't see the people at home and were a little unsatisfactory.
On this night, the former General Yang, the famous General Yang Nianxian of Shu County, actually appeared in the prisoner camp, and it is said that a thousand people were fortunate enough to be General Yang's subordinates before, eating and drinking spicy food outside. Unexpectedly, this time General Yang only said a few words after coming in, asking them if they wanted to fight, of course they didn't want to, they would die. General Yang asked again if he wanted to go home, of course he wanted to, who didn't want to be a fool. General Yang said again, whether the food here is good or not, nonsense, it is better than not being a prisoner before, not to mention that there is no food at home. General Yang finally said that 3,000 people can go out with him, they can be soldiers in Hanzhong, and they can eat twice as much as here, and if they have money, who will go. Zhang San and Li Si ran the fastest, and they all said they were willing, and whoever didn't want to was a fool.
Zhang San and Li Si then went up to the city wall, and when they heard that it was the former state pastor outside, Zhang San asked Li Si why General Yang surrendered. Li Si scolded Zhang San for being stupid, General Yang didn't want to fight, there was a state pastor in Shu, there was a master in Hanzhong, and there was also a governor of Yizhou, and they all wanted Yizhou. So I fought all day, only two were killed, and the remaining one was not fought, Zhang San, who you said was better left. Zhang San said that of course he is a master of Hanzhong, at least eat well, Li Si said, yes, General Yang also said so, eat well, and eat yellow nests at meals, who doesn't want to be a fool, Zhang San, do you think General Yang looks like a fool. Zhang San said no, General Yang is very smart. Zhang San also heard that in the past, the Hanzhong adults did not kill the prisoners, but they had to take a two-year break and take care of the food, but I don't know if they had eaten well and eaten well in the prisoner camp, so this Hanzhong Lord is definitely a good person and does not kill the common people. The two chatted while throwing stones under the city, and they were really interested, and the people next to them were envious.
Chen Lin is very tired, although now the cavalry in Hanzhong are all saddled and stirrups, but continuous running, or real combat, slashing, and riding horses is not an easy thing. Although Chen Lin picked a place with few people and rushed away, the guards behind him inevitably left more than 20 horses, and 70 horses stood neatly behind Chen Lin. Just now, Chen Lin had just killed another pair and turned around from a new one. Chen Lin took a breath, looking at such a battlefield, knowing that Gao Shun, Cai Yang and the others also tried their best, after all, the strength was limited. Chen Lin didn't know how many people he had personally watched, even if the hundred steel knives in his hands had been changed twice, not to mention the foot soldiers in them, wouldn't it be more intense. Now Chen Lin is starting to be a little worried, the sky is about to dawn, if it is dawn, Liu Yan will definitely find Chen Lin's weakness, and he will definitely reassemble from scratch, then Chen Lin will be in trouble, big trouble, and may even turn victory into defeat.
Chen Lin glanced at the city wall of Chengdu, since Liu Yan decided to attack the city, Chen Lin joined Gao Shun's side and let Liu Yan attack Chengdu City. When the first giant tree was smashed down on the city wall, Chen Lin knew that Yang Huai had made the right choice and did not take the opportunity to betray him. At this time, Chen Lin saw that Liu Yan's army of nearly 10,000 people had thousands of casualties in two hours, presumably it was not easy in the city, Chen Lin couldn't help but wonder if Yang Huai pulled all the prisoners out, because he dared, Chen Lin never knew what kind of effect he played in the nest head and a few meals of meat for the prisoners.
Chen Lin looked ahead, turned around and grinned: "Kill." These dozens of guards and Chen Lin have long been like brothers, and the people behind them are all following Chen Lin to open his mouth and laugh and pat the horse and rush forward, I don't know if it's crazy or what, let alone that he is so tired that he almost falls to the ground involuntarily.
Zhang Ren was defeated, looking at Gao Shun with more than 30 people to kill him step by step, Zhang Ren was convinced, this night was a real big battle for him, Gao Shun gave him the opportunity to play to his heart's content, but he was still not as good as Gao Shun, and his subordinates were not as good as being trapped in the camp. But Zhang Ren had no regrets, Gao Shun won glory, and now there are only more than 200 left in the 800 camp, and his 4,000 people are almost killed and wounded. "General Zhang, is the strongest general Gao has met so far in serving the lord, Gao admires, come down, the lord is eloquent, and he will definitely let the general show his ambitions."
Zhang Ren was covered in blood, stationed with a knife, hahaha laughed and said to Gao Shun: "The general is also the person Ren respects the most, it is said that the general is from the same poor background as Ren, dare to ask the general if the general is defeated today, the general is willing to surrender?" Zhang Ren's face was calm, not afraid of life and death, Gao Shun nodded straightly, and did not answer Zhang Ren's words, yes, if it is he who loses today, he will definitely not surrender. Zhang Ren is the same as himself, the same character, but he is not lucky to meet the lord. Gao Shun turned around and said to the guards behind him: "Send General Zhang on the road, protect the general's body, and bury it thickly." Thirty guards rushed to Zhang Ren with their swords raised, Gao Shun turned to leave, and Zhang Ren's voice sounded behind him: "Thank you, General, for success." "Zhang Ren's situation will definitely not fall even if he is captured, Chen Lin will also want Zhang Ren to die, but the general should die on the battlefield, not on the guillotine.
Compared with Zhang Ren faced by Gao Shun, Cai Yang and Yang Ren directly attacked Liu Fan, although the number of people they faced was twice as many as that faced by Gao Shun, but they seemed much easier than Gao Shun. Now it is estimated that the survivors of the trapped camp are only four or five hundred, but Cai Yang and Yang Ren faced an enemy army twice as large as Gao Shun, and the losses were much smaller, but the enemies defeated were much more. At this time, Liu Fan was guarding hundreds of guards, these Hanzhong soldiers and horses were too desperate, although Liu Fan's son-in-law brother was better than several younger brothers, he couldn't help but be afraid. At this time, Liu Fan's cronies hurriedly said: "Son, the movement on General Zhang's side is getting smaller and smaller, it must be over, withdraw Childe, go back to meet the lord." When Liu Fan heard this, he withdrew, and he had to withdraw. In fact, it doesn't matter if Liu Fan goes or not, because Liu Fan didn't play any role from beginning to end, even if it was to calm the morale of the army, because the other generals and soldiers couldn't find him at all, and Liu Fan wished that no one would pay attention to him, if the soldiers and horses in Hanzhong knew that Liu Yan's eldest son was here, who could imagine the consequences.
Sure enough, the news of Zhang Ren's death began to shout, Zhang Ren deserved to be the first general in Shuzhong, Liu Yan's account went up to the general and down to the soldiers, no one knows, at this time Zhang Ren died, which greatly accelerated the surrender of Liu Yan's soldiers and horses. What else is fighting, Liu Fan can't find it, Zhang Ren is dead again, Liu Yan doesn't know what he's doing until now, he only heard the rumbling of killing over there, but he didn't see anyone rescue, why go if he doesn't surrender at this time, anyway, many soldiers are tired and afraid and don't want to move.
Liu Yan was shocked, Liu Fan ran back, and brought the news of Zhang Ren's death, Liu Yan was stunned, standing there without moving. Frightened, Huang Quan and Liu Fan hurriedly stepped forward to shoot Liu Yan, of course, this action was only dared by Liu Fan. As soon as Liu Yan came back to his senses, he cried: "Zhang Ren, my Zhang Ren." "Yang Huai can fight, he has fallen, Zhang Wei Gaopei can also fight, on the contrary, Zhang Ren is even more capable of fighting, and when he died, Liu Yan suddenly felt that the sky had fallen. After screaming, he fell straight back, this time he was really sick. Liu Fan Huangquan hurriedly helped him up, and the surrounding guards hurriedly surrounded him, not letting the soldiers outside see it, how big a blow to morale this was, fools know.
Liu Yan defeated Liu Fan and hugged him, and said with difficulty: "Withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops." Huang Quan was shocked, but he didn't know how to speak, only the infinite anxiety in his heart, the withdrawal of troops was defeated, and if he didn't withdraw, Liu Yan's situation was even in danger of his life. Huang Quan could only try his best to remedy it, and hurriedly said to Liu Fan: "Eldest prince, give an order, bring back 10,000 soldiers and horses in the south, and defend the Minjiang River." "Shu County is bound to lose, Huang Quan only hopes that the little Qianwei can use the Minjiang River as a natural risk to face Chengdu across the river.
Where did Liu Fan still have an idea at this time, so he had to follow Huang Quan's words, I have to say that Huang Quan's true loyalty to Liu Yan, Huang Quan's family is in Chengdu, but Huang Quan has never expressed any sadness and worry, as if it is not his family, which is one of the reasons why Liu Yan still believes in him.
Huang Quan knew that he couldn't take too many people away, on the one hand, leaving more people could keep Chen Lin busy here for a longer time, so that he would not chase after him, and on the other hand, food, this was the point, and there would definitely not be enough food to eat if there were too many people. Therefore, Huang Quan and Liu Fan rushed to carry Liu Yan and took the closest and best army of 4,000 from the northwest corner of Chengdu and left the battlefield. Frightened, Yang Huai thought that Liu Yan was going to turn around and attack the north gate, so he hurriedly led his troops to the north gate.
