The Qingyang Gorge is high and densely forested, and there is only one winding path for access. As soon as he entered the canyon, Wu Yi felt the cold of Sensen, it is said that it is early summer, although it is not as hot as the scorching summer, but there will definitely not be any cool feeling, but Wu Yi just felt the compelling cold, a kind of chill that came up from the bottom of his heart.
Wu Yi looked around, the lush canyon was quiet, he couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly, it seemed that he was too careful.
But at this moment, suddenly the horn cannon sounded in the forest, and there was an earth-shaking shout of killing, and suddenly the dust and smoke flew on the mountain, and the birds resting in the mountain forest also fluttered their wings in panic and flew high, squeaking over the head of the Sichuan army.
"There's an enemy attack!" As soon as this thought flashed in Wu Yi's heart, countless arrows poured in from all directions, and the Sichuan officers and soldiers were caught off guard and fell to the ground one after another.
"Array! Array! Wu Yi shouted angrily. The most effective formation to deal with the enemy's ambush is to shrink the team, including the archers and spearmen, and the sword and shield soldiers outside, and use the shield to form a circle to effectively defend against the enemy's random arrow attacks.
But the road in this canyon is narrow and bumpy, and it is not easy for the Sichuan army to turn around, many soldiers are crowded together, chaotic and coaxing, the Jing army is in the middle of the mountain, condescending, and diffuse with all their might, just a moment, the Sichuan army has already suffered heavy casualties.
Li Yan hurriedly said to Wu Yi: "Wu Duhu, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, quickly retreat and join General Liu." Wu Yi and Li Yan led more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in the front, while Liu Yi led an army of 40,000 people and had not yet entered the valley.
Wu Yi was hit by an arrow on his helmet. Fortunately, his helmet was of good quality so that he was not shot through, but it was also so frightened that Wu Yi's soul was scattered, and he didn't need Li Yan to say that he knew that he couldn't stay here for a long time, and the Jing army didn't know how many people were ambushed here, but just by looking at the dense rain of arrows, he knew that there were definitely not a few, and the Sichuan army was at the bottom. It was completely a live target that was passively beaten, and Wu Yi immediately ordered that the front team of the whole army should become the rear team, and the rear team would become the front team, and retreat backwards along the incoming route.
As soon as the Sichuan army completed its turn, before it had time to retreat, it saw countless rolling logs and boulders on the two cliffs on the left and right in the direction of the valley mouth rumbling down, stirring up dust all over the sky, and there was a feeling that the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Wait until the dust clears. The Sichuan army found that the mouth of the valley had been tightly blocked, and the Sichuan army stranded in the canyon was like a turtle in an urn, with no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground.
Li Yan was horrified, and immediately stepped forward, ordering the soldiers to move the obstacles and clear a passage.
These boulders are huge. Stacked on top of each other, overlapping each other. The Sichuan soldiers who braved the rain of arrows to clear up had nowhere to start, and they laboriously moved the logs and boulders one by one, and the progress was slow.
Li Yan was worried, the Jing army ambushed in all directions, and the road was blocked again, if he could not open a way out quickly. The 30,000 Sichuan army is likely to be trapped and killed in the Qingyang Gorge. Li Yan whipped a few of the retreating soldiers, shouting loudly.
At this moment, a group of men and horses rushed out of the oblique thorns, led by a general, in white robes and silver armor. Majestic, it was Changshan Zhao Zilong, the white dragon horse four hooves flew like flying, and rushed towards Li Yan like an arrow from the string, shouting loudly: "The thief will leave, Zhao Yun is here!" ”
Li Yan was frightened, reluctantly raised his gun to fight, and before the battle was combined, the spear in his hand was picked up by Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun swept the gun and pulled Li Yan off the horse. Li Yan fell to the ground, sighed secretly, closed his eyes and waited for death, Zhao Yunping held the silver spear, but did not stab it, smiled coldly, and shouted: "Tie up!" Immediately, a soldier stepped forward and arrested Li Yan, and tied him with ropes.
Zhao Yun launched a surprise attack here, and Chen Zhi over there also led the army to launch a general attack on the Sichuan army besieged in the canyon.
Wu Yi saw that the army was defeated like a mountain, and the way back was cut off, and in desperation, he had to lead a small number of personal soldiers to rush forward. Fortunately, the road ahead was not barrier-free, and Wu Yi braved the rain of arrows to run all the way, and finally escaped from Qingyang Gorge. Just when Wu Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was still breathing, another group of men and horses arrived in front of him.
However, this leader, Wu Yi is familiar and can not be more familiar, it is the former senior guard general Meng Da, speaking of which Wu Yi and Meng Da's personal relationship is still good. Wu Yi looked at the few soldiers around him, and it was almost impossible to fight a bloody way in front of Meng Da.
Wu Yi immediately gave up his plan to fight hard and fought hard, and said to Meng Da: "Ziqing, don't come to harm?" ”
Meng Da saw that Wu Yi's face was in a hurry, and his former friend was reduced to such a situation today, he couldn't help but sigh a little, and immediately bowed slightly and said: "Meng Mou has been waiting here for a long time under the order of King Jing's general." "Meng Da's words are quite profound, although the relationship between you and me was good in the past, but now we are each our own master, and I am also under the order of King Jing, I can't help myself, if you want me to open the net, I'm afraid I can't do it.
Wu Yi's face changed when he heard this, and he said, "Isn't it difficult for Ziqing not to miss a little old love?" In the past, when you and I were in Chengdu, we had a very good relationship, and today we were defeated, and life and death were between Ziqing's thoughts, and I hope to be pitied. ”
Meng Da, as a newly descended person, was ordered to intercept Wu Yi here, if it was really because of private affairs, I was afraid that Liu Ze would not be able to explain in front of him, so he hesitated again and again, but still did not agree to Wu Yi's request, but said: "Brother Ziyuan, now that Liu Zhang's general trend has gone, King Jing's entry into Yizhou is inevitable, my brother is a person who understands the overall situation of the times, so why should I be martyred for Liu Zhang, even if I open the net today, my brother may not be able to escape there, it is better to return to King Jing earlier, and I can also protect my name." ”
Wu Yi thought about it again and again, today is a catastrophe after all, and fortunately it is his best friend Meng Da who is blocking the way, if it is another general of the Jing Army, it is impossible to say, I am afraid that it will already be a chaotic corpse. So Wu Yi dismounted and surrendered to Meng Da, Meng Da was overjoyed and led Wu Yi to see Liu Ze.
When the front of the Sichuan army was ambushed in Qingyang Gorge, Liu Bi, who had not yet entered the valley, immediately led troops to the rescue, and just arrived at the mouth of the valley, a cavalry roared in front of the left, which was the archers led by Guan Hai.
The mountains in Qingyang Gorge are high and dense, but the outside of the gorge is flat, which is most conducive to the cavalry action of the brigade, Guan Hai's task is to intercept the supporting Liu Bi, and when he saw Liu Bi leading his troops to Qingyang Gorge, he immediately led the archers to kill and block Liu Bi's way.
The Sichuan army rode less and marched more, and the best thing was mountain and jungle warfare, and it was not the strong point of the Sichuan army to fight encounters with the archers of the Jing army in the plains. The archers lined up in a row, rushing towards the position of the Sichuan army at a speed like a wind, and a hundred arrows were fired at the same time, and before the Sichuan army could organize an effective defense, it was rushed by the archers. The archers were rampaging in the Sichuan army formation, killing a corpse all over the field and bleeding rivers.
The deputy general Leng Bao Deng Xian saw that the cavalry of the Jing army was fierce, and the Sichuan army was unstoppable, so he urgently protected Liu Bi to retreat back, but fortunately, Guan Hai only fought a blocking battle outside Qingyang Gorge and did not pursue it. Hearing the sound of fighting in Qingyang Gorge, Wu Yi and Li Yan were sure that they were more than lucky, and the whole army was wiped out, and Liu Yan sighed.
Leng Bao said: "Wu Duhu General Li is in a desperate situation, and he will definitely suffer an accident, I am afraid that this White Emperor City will not be able to go, it is better to retreat back to Deyang, and be in one place with General Zhang Ren's soldiers, in order to protect himself." ”
Liu Bi never expected that Liu Ze did not attack the White Emperor City at all, but used the White Emperor City as a bait to lure the Sichuan army to the east to aid the White Emperor, ambushed halfway, and caught Wu Yi off guard, and more than 30,000 people were wrapped in dumplings, which was completely a blow to the Sichuan army. Liu Bi was very helpless, the more than 30,000 people in the front led by Wu Yi and Li Yan had already been wiped out, and now if they wanted to storm Qingyang Gorge, it would be tantamount to a moth to a fire. He thought about it, this White Emperor City must not be able to go, and if he went further, waiting for him, he didn't know how many ambushes there were, but the only way to do this was to obey Leng Bao's Jianyi and lead the troops to retreat to Deyang.
This place is not a place to stay for a long time, after Liu Bi thought about it clearly, he immediately turned his head to Deyang, as for Wu Yi and the White Emperor of the Lonely City who were trapped in the canyon, he really couldn't care about it.
