515, Secret Attack
This is a ragged army of soldiers and horses, the number of which is less than 30,000, even the banner is also exposed by the cracks pierced by arrows, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses have walked one after another, and the iron cavalry that was once famous in the thirteen states has all turned into foot soldiers.
Zhang Liao is one of the generals surrounding Pang Tong, but this handsome general has a dusty face, which forms an extremely powerful contrast with his former grace.
Guo Huai and Guo Zhun Bayun were also in the ranks of the march, and the top decision-makers of this army were lying on a stretcher.
Outside the city, Pang Tong did drink an arrow alive, so he was seriously injured.
That arrow was mixed with stray arrows, there were thousands, and Pang Tong dodged the arrows that even he couldn't count with skill, but was shot by Zhang Ren at the last moment.
Who is Zhang Ren? That is a ruthless character that can be compared with Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, in history, because of his loyalty to Liu Zhang, known as a virtuous minister who does not care about the two masters, and finally died of generosity, if not, his fame would not be worse than those top generals.
Zhang Ren held his breath and shot an arrow at Pang Tong's heart, submerged into it, and was only a millimeter away from the most fragile heart of the human body.
This is still the critical moment when Pang Tong is wearing the inner armor for him to remove the biggest Cheng dรน killing machine, without the set of inner armor given by Yuan Shang, seven days ago, Pang Tong would have already died.
Now walking through the jungle, the marching conditions are extremely poor, there is no pause, and more importantly, the crazy march, its harsh environment is also a great threat to Pang Tong's life.
"General Staff, can you take a break?"
Zhang Liao's eyes showed unbearable color, and Pang Tong, who was lying on the stretcher, was as pale as paper, and his lips were shriveled. Ben has some ugly faces. for it has not been washed for many days. It's more like a ghost running between life and death.
It's just that none of the tens of thousands of soldiers, including Zhang Liao, dared to laugh at him and despise him, just because this scholar led them to slowly withdraw from the battlefield after being ambushed in Luocheng, and in order to secretly attack Chengdu, he even disregarded his own life, and the terrible spirit of sacrifice and the resilience exuded by his body were very admired by anyone.
50,000 soldiers before the expedition. Overcoming obstacles all the way, although its record is not as dazzling as Ma Chao's department, but it is not without any merits, Ma Jiajun needs to rely on the battle of Yizhou as a nomination to promote and integrate into the tiger and wolf army, which Pang Tong sees very clearly, therefore, in the battle of Yizhou, they are willing to be green leaves, including the 50,000 tiger and wolf martyrs who went out to fight are also clear in their hearts, so the army is under the command of Pang Tong. has always been steady and steady, conquering more than a dozen cities along the way. There have never been more than 1,000 casualties, but outside the city of Luocheng, he was ambushed by Zhang Ren in one fell swoop, and nearly 20,000 people were killed in battle, which can be regarded as the most tragic battle since the people entered Shu.
Whether it is Pang Tong's carelessness, or Zhang Ren's familiarity with the terrain and his cunning, this battle, whether it is the tiger and wolf army or Pang Tong himself, has already paid a heavy price.
It is precisely because of this that Pang Tong urgently needs an exciting news to announce their existence, which is a green leaf, and it is also to play wonderful.
Changed to a hidden path, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were reduced to zero, and all the war horses were hidden in the deep mountains.
The military medical officer's surname is Zheng, and he is known as the master of Chun Yuying, who is known as the divine doctor of the Northland, and his medical skills are naturally not bad, but at this moment, he has a sad face, looking at Pang Tong with a pale face but holding on sadly, a fire is burning in his heart, Pang Tong's insistence makes him extremely passive, as a medical officer, he first considers the patient's situation, not the result of a battle, just as now Pang Tong is eager to take his soldiers to Chengdu to force Liu Zhang to surrender, and Zheng Yangshen is much simpler, in his opinion, The current Pang Tong is not suitable for such a high-intensity march, if he grits his teeth and holds on, he will defeat Chengdu, Pang Tong will not have time to applaud, and his life will come to an end, which is unacceptable to a doctor with a heart of helping the world and saving people.
Zhang Liao's mention is also what Guo Huai, Guo Zhun Bayun and other generals want, Zheng Yangshen hurriedly showed gratitude, if it goes on like this, the soldiers can hold on, but what about him, the main general? is already dying and relying on a breath of energy, in my heart, how can these generals not feel guilty.
"Nope"
Pang Tong waved his hand with difficulty, his eyes were a little dark, but he still said toughly: "Bear with it a little longer, according to the estimation of this ginseng, it will only be half a day at most to approach Chengdu, and I have been walking through the jungle for three days, I can't give up, I must kill Chengdu in one go." โ
"But..."
On the left side of Zhang Liao, the youngest Guo Huai was a little unbearable, seeing that the gauze on Pang Tong's heart was overflowing blood from time to time, his eyes were a little red and said: "Your body can't hold it, what if you lay down Chengdu?" If the lord is here, he will also ask you to cultivate in situ, no matter how high Chengdu is, it will not be higher than your lofty status in the eyes of the soldiers..."
"You don't need to say more."
Pang Tong patted the stretcher with his hand, his haggard look, but showed a resolute stubbornness, this arrow hit his heart, but did not shoot through his faith, even if he was sick on the couch and could not walk like an ordinary person, but his stubbornness still supported him to move forward.
"Go"
Pang Tongyi shouted angrily, although his situation was already extremely serious, but it still shocked Zhang Liao, Guo Zhun, Guo Zhun Bayun and others, that is, the newly voted Wang Ping generals were all in awe, there is no doubt that the first time to lead the army, Pang Tong has used his actions to impress this group of generals who have always only believed in the strong.
Zhang Liao, Guo Zhun and others had no choice but to order several groups of soldiers who took turns to carry the stretcher to slow down the speed slightly, too bumpy, and had irreparable hard injuries to Pang Tong's body, and tens of thousands of soldiers along the way were silent, and from time to time they pulled out the war knives and swords hanging from their waists, cut off the thorns with their hands, and killed Chengdu under Pang Tong's insistent request.
Liu Zhang in Chengdu is still hesitating, after all, such a large piece of foundation, saying that he will give it to others, he will definitely be unwilling in his heart, besides, in a certain Cheng dรน, he is indeed moved by Zheng Du, no matter what, this is the foundation that his deceased father exchanged for his life, if it is lost in his hands, how will he Liu Zhang explain to his father in the future when he goes to the underworld?
It is precisely because of this that Liu Zhang did not draft a letter of surrender to Chang'an according to Zhang Song's Zhou and Fa Zheng to him, Zheng Du's trouble, although he was quite unhappy in his heart, but Zhang Ren and Leng Bao and others won the victory let him see the feasibility of Zheng Du's strategy, yesterday Fa Zheng Zhang Song and others left, Liu Zhang has been pondering, and even some of Liu Yan's old heroes who gradually faded out of the center of power after his death were also invited into the mansion, some people persuaded to surrender, some people took a tough attitude to the main battle, although most people advocated hard war, But Liu Zhang's temperament is destined to be difficult to make a decision in a short period of time, just when he was still hesitating, the outside of the mansion suddenly shook, and Liu Zhang, who was still a little conscious, did not react, and more than a dozen civil and military officers hurriedly poured into the mansion.
Uninvited people include Zhang Song, Zhou and Laimin, Dong Yun, Fei Guan, Xu Jing and others, Huang Quan and Pang Xi really left Chengdu the next day, so most of the people who came were civilian officials, and the Yizhou military department was mostly fortified in the area of Mianzhu and Luocheng, and the rest were either not reused or not in Chengdu, so they gave Fa Zheng a chance to take advantage of.
"What's going on?"
Liu Zhang was a little surprised to look at the dozen or so subordinates who came together without his call, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, there must be a demon when things go wrong, Liu Zhang still knew this in his heart.
"My lord, it's not good, the enemy army is coming, and they have lined up a battle formation outside the city." The first person to wail was Zhang Song, judging from his expression, it really didn't look like a fake, and he was extremely surprised when he thought about it.
"What"
Liu Zhang's body trembled, looked at Zhang Song in disbelief, and said angrily: "Didn't you say that Ma Chao's department is still in Mianzhu?" Why did they kill outside the city so quickly, Zhang Ren and Leng Bao's department? Don't you notice it at all? โ
"It's not Ma Chao's department"
Fei Guan, who had an in-law relationship with Liu Zhang, took Liu Zhang's words and said with a wry smile: "It's Pang Tong's department, the enemy army outside the city that was ambushed by Zhang Ren. โ
Liu Zhang's body shook again, almost paralyzed to the ground, although there are soldiers and horses in Chengdu City at the moment, only more than 10,000 Liu family descendants of the Benyun Army can be of great use, and the rest are shrimp soldiers and crab generals, which can not give Liu Zhang a sense of security at all.
And what frightened him the most was why Pang Tong's department, who was obviously ambushed by Zhang Ren outside the city, ran away from Chengdu without knowing it, this is where Liu Zhang really felt frightened. (To be continued......)
