Seeing that the Jin army sent a hundred soldiers, holding shields and pressing towards the top of the mountain, the hundred Wudang Fei troops defending here were ready to fight.

When the 100 men and horses of the Jin army were about to reach the top of the mountain, the Wudang Fei army defending this place immediately stood up and raised a large stone and smashed it downward.

"Click, click......" The hundred men and horses under the command of the thunderstorm were killed and wounded by the Shu army who were ambushed by the unpreparedness, and more than 20 shields were smashed by stones.

"Move closer, move closer to me." When the Jin army saw an ambush on the top of the mountain, they immediately ordered the surrounding soldiers to move closer to them.

When the soldiers under his command heard the order, they immediately leaned together and raised their shields to form an impermeable wall.

"Knock knock...... Click...... "The stones kept hitting the shield array, making a crashing sound and the sound of the shield breaking.

The thunderstorm in the distance saw that his subordinates had been ambushed, and after carefully observing the enemy's situation, he immediately ordered: "Retreat, the first team retreats backwards." ”

Receiving the order of the thunderstorm, the first group of soldiers, holding their shields, slowly retreated, and quickly returned to the original position of departure.

Seeing the Jin army retreating, the ambushed Wudang Fei army did not pursue, because they knew very well that their forces were insufficient to effectively pursue and kill the enemy army.

Seeing that the Shu army had already prepared, Thunderstorm understood that it was impossible for him to attack the top of the mountain, so he immediately retreated to the rear along the original road, preparing to report the truth to Hua'an.

When Thunderstorm and his men returned to Hua'an's location, Li Yi also returned with the support of his subordinates.

Seeing the thunderstorm and Li Yi running back in disgrace, Hua'an confirmed his speculation. The Shu army on the top of the mountain was indeed not burned to death, and the corpses lying on the ground were just pretends.

"General Hua, the Shu army on the top of the mountain is far more than a dozen, at least hundreds, and our soldiers have suffered heavy losses, with nearly half of the casualties." As soon as Li Yi came back, he complained to Hua'an, indirectly accusing the scouts of the Northern Expeditionary Army of making mistakes in probing intelligence.

"Big brother, the Shu army did have an ambush, and more than 20 of our soldiers were killed, and more than 30 shields were damaged." Thunderstorm also truthfully confirmed to Hua'an the existence of the Shu army's ambush soldiers.

Huaan nodded. Look at the two of them. He said softly: "You have all worked hard, go down and rest!" ”

"Yes." Thunderstorm and Li Yi hurriedly received the order, and led their subordinates to the temporary camps on both sides of the path.

After the two left, Wang San looked at Hua'an. He said softly, "Big brother." The Shu army was nailed to the death of Luofeng Slope. This is indeed a great trouble for our army! What do we do now? ”

Hua An smiled and replied softly: "The henchmen are in trouble, it's not so terrible." The eldest brother just wanted to see the strength of Zhuge Qi and Wudang Feijun, and it would not be difficult to annihilate them. After speaking, his face was relaxed.

Seeing Hua An's expression so relaxed, Wang San was a little puzzled, looked at Hua An, and asked again: "Big brother, the Shu army firmly controls both sides of Luofeng Slope, and our army has been defeated three times in a row, why is Big Brother still so relaxed." ”

Hua An smiled, pointed to the direction of Luofeng Slope, the bare hillside that had been burned, and said: "Wang San, you see, Luofeng Slope, the location of the Shu army's ambush is a high mountain, what is on the mountain, food, or water sources, these should not be there!" Ha ha! He chuckled softly.

Wang San was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "That's right! There is no food and water on the top of the mountain, and the eldest brother means that Luofengpo will be besieged, and after the Shu army runs out of food and water, it will naturally obediently go down the mountain and surrender. ”

Hua An nodded and said, "That's right, you want to!" The Shu army hurriedly set out to fight, how much food and water can be brought, three days, five days, at most no more than ten days, originally there are trees on the top of the mountain for cooling, hungry can also have wild fruits to fill hunger, now the trees and wild fruits have been burned, once the Shu army runs out of food and water, it is not obedient surrender. ”

"Big brother Gao Jian, Wang San is far behind." Wang San smiled and complimented.

Hua An looked at the pro-military camp behind him, and said softly: "Wang San, let the soldiers of the pro-military camp rest for an hour, and then return to the camp with me, early tomorrow morning, we will go to the east gate of the city to prepare for surrender."

"Yes, big brother." Wang San answered, turned and left.

######

On the top of the mountain of Luofeng Slope, Zhuge Qi also fell into a hidden worry, although he defeated the enemy's attack many times, but the food and water brought by the army was not much, and the top of the mountain was bare, naturally there was no food and water to replenish, and at the same time, the road back to Luocheng was also blocked by more than 2,000 people under Li Yi's command.

Originally, he let go of Li Yi's forward men and horses in order to kill and injure the enemy more, but he didn't expect that now, the enemy army that was let go has become a wall between Luofengpo and Luocheng, so that his men and horses cannot obtain logistical assistance in the direction of Luocheng.

However, what made Zhuge Qi happy was that the two thousand men and horses who were let go by themselves did not carry much food and water, and the current situation should be similar to his own, as long as the two thousand men and horses ran out of food and water first, the defenders in the city could easily eliminate this group of enemies, and the wall between the city and Luofeng Slope could be wiped out.

An hour later, a few miles north of Luofengpo, Hua An and Wang San led the pro-military camp to prepare to return to the camp, and Lei Storm and Li Yi and other generals came to see them off.

Hua An rode on his horse, looked at Lei Storm and Li Yi, and said loudly: "Luofengpo has no food and no water, the Shu army can't hold on for long, you have 5,000 men and horses, as long as I hold here, the Shu army in Luofengpo will have no way to escape." ”

"Don't worry, big brother, we will definitely guard here." Thunderstorm spoke loudly.

"General Hua, the last general and General Lei will definitely do their best to defend this place and trap Zhuge Qi." Li Yi is also full of confidence.

Hua An nodded, and said, "Are you all confident?" Okay, very good, but you have to remember for me, you must be vigilant, beware of Zhuge Qi leading the army to sneak attack, and the night sentry must have at least five hundred men. ”

"Obey." Thunderstorm and Li Yi shouted his orders.

Seeing the thunderstorm and Li Yi's confident face, Hua An stretched out his hand and waved it, and said loudly: "Let's go." After saying that, he rode his horse in the direction of the camp.

"Let's go, the pro-barracks will set off immediately." Wang San shouted and led the men and horses of the pro-military camp to the direction of the camp.

A few hours later, Hua An and his entourage arrived at the camp, and after resting in the camp for the night, early the next morning, Hua An asked his men to prepare for departure.

"Big brother, everyone is ready and ready to go." After the preparation of the camp, Wang San hugged his fists and reported to Hua'an.

Hua An looked at the men and horses in the camp that had been prepared, and said softly: "Send ten days of food and grass to Lei Storm and Li Yi, and the rest of the men and horses will all take the main road and march towards the east gate of the city." ”

"Yes, big brother." Wang San received the order and turned to deliver the order.

Soon, the men and horses in the camp began to set off one after another, Hua An and Wang San walked in the front with their own military battalion, followed by 3,000 men and horses of the baggage battalion, and 3,000 cavalry under the command of Lei Storm walked at the end to protect important grain and grass and cattle and sheep and other materials, and finally there were 200 men and horses to transport enough grain and grass for ten days to go to the direction of Luofengpo.

In order to go to the city as much as possible and accept Li Fu's formal surrender, Hua An led the pro-army battalion to take the first step and marched as fast as possible in the direction of the east gate of the city.

In the evening, Hua'an and his entourage finally arrived outside the east gate of the city and joined the army of iron bulls waiting here.

"Tie Niu, is there anything unusual about the defenders of the city?" As soon as Hua An arrived at the Iron Bull camp, he asked.

Tie Niu shook his head and said loudly: "Big brother, the defenders of the city are all staying in the city, and the soldiers on the city wall have never exceeded a hundred. Ha ha! It's all good wine and good meat. ”

When Hua An heard this, he hurriedly said: "Where is the wine and meat sent by the Shu army?" ”

"Big brother, these are all in the stomachs of our soldiers." Iron Bull replied truthfully.

Hua An was very surprised, looked at Tie Niu, and scolded: "Tie Niu, you are so bold!" Aren't you afraid that the Shu army will poison the wine and meat? ”

Tie Niu smiled and said, "Big brother, I have been prepared for a long time, so let the soldiers take turns to drink and eat meat, even if there is a problem with wine and meat, they will not lose all their combat effectiveness at once." ”

"You! It's just bold, but fortunately, the soldiers are fine. Hua An reprimanded softly.

"Huh!" Tie Niu laughed twice, looked in the direction of Luocheng, and said: "Big brother, now that you are here, let Li Fu lead the Shu soldiers and horses in the city to go out of the city and officially surrender to our army!" ”

Hua An nodded and said softly: "Okay, tonight our army can enter Ruocheng, Wang San, you take a team of men and horses to Luocheng in person, and let Li Fu lead the army out of the city and surrender." ”

"Yes, big brother." Wang San accepted the order and turned away.

Soon, Wang San led more than a dozen personal soldiers to ride their horses towards the east gate of the city.

"Whoever comes, report the name." The little colonel guarding the city yelled at Wang San.

Wang San raised his head slightly, looked in the direction of the city gate tower, and said loudly: "This will be Wang San, the deputy general of the Northern Expeditionary Army, let your main general Li Fu come out to meet." ”

As soon as he heard that it was the adjutant general of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the colonel hurriedly replied: "Wait a minute, the general will report immediately." After speaking, he ordered the cavalry under the city to go to Li Fu's Chinese army tent and report the situation.

Li Fu, who was discussing the surrender with Li Liang in the big tent of the Chinese army, learned that the deputy general of the Northern Expeditionary Army had come in person, and hurriedly rode his horse to the east gate with Li Liang.

"Open the door, open the gates." Li Fuce galloped to the east gate of the city and ordered loudly.

......The east gate of the city slowly opened, and Li Fu and Li Liang led several personal soldiers to ride out of the city to meet Wang San.

"Oh, this is General Wang! Under Li Fu, the one next to him is General Li Liang. As soon as Li Fu saw Wang San, he introduced him first.

Wang San smiled, arched his hand to Li Fu and Li Liang, and said straight to the point: "The two generals, General Hua, the main general of our army, have arrived here, and the two of you can lead the defenders of the whole city to submit to my Great Jin." After speaking, he looked at Li Fu and Li Liang. (To be continued......)
