Meng Da was unhurried, and after walking thirty miles a day, the baggage ships carrying grain were in the Han River, accompanying the troops on land. Every day when the sun is just in the west, Meng Da will set up camp and rest early.

Such an attitude confused the Wei army scouts. Mengda's march was not fast, not slow, decent, and could not fault anything. But the baggage boat in the Han River looks like a bait no matter how you look at it. Dozens of warships loaded with grain and grass, only a dozen small and medium-sized warships escorted the escort, which was clearly a flaw deliberately exposed.

This flaw was so obvious that the Wei army's sailors in the Xiangfan area did not dare to attack. Meng Da is also a veteran general who has fought for many years, and he will not understand the importance of grain and grass, so it is impossible to be so hasty. By doing so, it was probably a trap.

Five days later, Meng reached Longzhongshan, west of Fancheng, and the Wei army sent sailors to meet him. Meng Da immediately stopped his advance and set up camp on the spot. Lu Zhai and Shui Zhai are connected together and echo each other. The Wei army's sailors were confused, and they sent a large number of scouts to reconnoiter upstream and downstream, but they did not find any ambush in the Shu army. After careful weighing, the Wei army could no longer hold back the impulse and cautiously launched an attack.

Meng Da ordered to defend against the danger, dragged all the baggage ships to the shore, leaving only the warships to resist on the periphery, and then set up a bow and crossbow array on the shore to assist the sailors in counterattacking. In the face of Meng Da's all-out counterattack, the Wei army did not dare to be careless, and tentatively probed step by step, and arranged at least half of Liliang to be on guard on the periphery, in case a Shu warship rushed to outflank it.

Meng Da set up a charging platform on the high ground on the shore, and looked at the warships that were fighting, but his mind flew to other places. He knew very well that in the face of these grains and grasses, the Wei army was limited even if it was tempted, and the real battle had not yet begun. Once the real battle begins, that's the thrill.

The two sides fought for two days. Each has its own damage, and there is no difference between victory and defeat. The Wei army withdrew to a safe distance and kept a watchful eye on Meng Da. They don't necessarily need to beat Mengda. As long as he can't easily approach Fancheng, he will achieve his goal. In the case that the baggage ships could not break through the Wei army's interception, Meng Da either waited for reinforcements on the spot and waited for these sailors to be defeated before leaving. Either he will be rerouted by land, but in that case, his food route will be cut off. Even if it is a successful capture of Fancheng. It is also in danger of running out of food.

The Wei army had to see how Meng Da acted before deciding on their next move.

At night, Meng Da closed his eyes, lay in his clothes, and a lamp flickered gently, projecting his tall figure onto the tent, like a giant. Then. There was a rush of footsteps outside the tent, and Meng Da's eyes opened, his eyes were clear, and he didn't look like he had just woken up. As soon as he opened his eyes, Deng Xian lifted the tent door. Walked in like a gust of wind.

"General, there's news."

"How?" Meng Da turned over and sat up, and asked anxiously.

"Wei Feng has rushed into the vicinity of Dunse, and he can attack at any time."

"Where are the reinforcements of the Wei army?"

"It's in Dunse." Deng Xian said overjoyed: "As long as they are out of the plug, we will definitely be able to swallow them in one bite." ”

Meng Da didn't speak, and after a while, he waved his hand vigorously: "Pass my general order, act according to jihua." ”

"Whoa." Deng Xian hesitated for a moment, and then reminded with some uncertainty: "General, in this way, we are alone in the depths, which is very dangerous." Once Wei Ba ......"

Meng Da glanced at Deng Xian: "Don't worry, even if Wei Ba is willing to give us, he will not be willing to give up his brother." Wealth and danger are seeking, this time, I will accompany these young people to go crazy. ”

Deng Xian smiled, didn't say anything more, turned around and went out. The 10,000 Shu troops immediately took action, each soldier carried half a month's military rations, brought the necessary ordnance, left those baggage boats, pushed them onto the baggage trucks, quietly went ashore, and even confiscated the tents and left. They walked very secretively, so that the Wei naval division who was watching not far away did not notice it at all, until the few Shu warships guarding the empty baggage ships suddenly retreated, and then they found that the main force of Meng Da on the shore was gone.

The Wei army was shocked and immediately sent people to search, and at the same time informed the guards of Fancheng to be careful. Meng Da suddenly disappeared, there was only one possibility, he was going to attack Fancheng. Fan Cheng received the alarm and immediately raised his combat readiness to the highest level, and at the same time issued a warning to Dunse's reinforcements. No sooner had they set off the alarm than the scouts spotted Munda's traces.

Meng Da led 10,000 foot soldiers, pushing heavy trucks, and rushed towards Fancheng with great momentum. As soon as they arrived at the city, they did not set up camp, but just set up the baggage battalions along Fancheng, lifted the wooden planks, and revealed a branch of cold and shining arrows.

Half of these baggage trucks turned out to be brilista.

When the defender of Fan City saw this scene, he did not dare to slack off, and immediately closed the city gate and ordered all the people to go to the city and prepare for battle.

Meng Da did not attack the city immediately, and after preparing for a long time, when night fell, he suddenly put away all the crossbow carts and disappeared into the vast night, which confused the Wei soldiers who were waiting for the head of Fancheng City.

Taking advantage of the night, Meng Da led an army of 10,000 and hurried eastward. His real target was not Fancheng, but the three thousand Wei infantry cavalry who had arrived from Dunse. He was very familiar with the terrain near Fancheng and knew where the best place to fight was, and the reason why he stopped under Fancheng for a long time was to give the soldiers a respite on the one hand, and to deter the defenders of Fancheng on the other hand, so that they could not figure out the situation and did not dare to leave the city easily.

When the moon rose from Dongshan, Meng Da entered the position and saw Hu Zhen's military camp, as well as the Wei soldiers who hurried out of the camp to line up. I couldn't help but smile slightly, and gave the order to attack.

The 10,000 Shu army, which had been fiercely trained by Meng Da for more than two months, descended like a tiger, rolled up a wild storm, and swept away towards the 3,000 Wei army.

When Hu Zhen received the news, he led 3,000 steps to ride out of Dunse, he controlled his speed and did not approach Fancheng at the first time. No matter how easy Fancheng is, it is not something that 10,000 people can attack in a short period of time, and his task is to contain it from the side, rather than launch a frontal attack. If Meng Da wanted to forcibly attack the city, he would watch from the sidelines, which could not only make Meng Da dare not go all out, but also attack when Meng Da's morale was frustrated, so he chose to camp ten miles away from the city, preparing to defend instead of attacking.

But he didn't expect Meng Da to take advantage of the night to abandon Fancheng and target him.

When Hu Zhen received the news, although he was a little surprised, he was not worried, after all, he was also prepared like this. He is defending, there are favorable geographical conditions, in a short time, Meng Da will not be able to defeat him, as long as it is supported until tomorrow morning, a large number of reinforcements will arrive. At that time, Meng Da will have no way to escape. He just wanted to retreat, and with only two legs, he couldn't outrun the four-legged war horse, and he couldn't escape the pursuit of the Wei army's iron cavalry.

In Hu Zhen's view, whether Meng Da wanted to attack Fancheng or the original target was him, it was a gamble with no chance of winning. Even if it wins, it is a crushing victory, and the final result is bound to be a crushing defeat.

So Hu Zhen was very calm, and when he saw the Shu soldiers rushing up, he gave the order to block the attack in an orderly manner.

However, he soon realized that he was a little careless. Meng Da obviously came prepared, broke the cauldron and sank the boat, without even a temptation, and launched the most violent attack at the beginning.

On the light of the torches, the Shu sergeant pushed the crossbow cart to the front of the formation, and with a loud roar, the dense showers poured down like a torrential rain, even Hu Zhen was also a veteran general who had been in battle for a long time, and was also startled by the strength of the Shu army's arrow array. The Wei sergeant was caught off guard and was shot down by a rain of arrows at once.

"Kill!" Deng Xian pulled out his sword, roared wildly, and ran wildly with the guard battalion. He knew very well that if the battle could not be resolved quickly, once dawn, the reinforcements of the Wei army would soon arrive and would surround them, and they would not be able to escape if they wanted to.

Time is life.

Every Shu soldier understood this, and they followed Deng Xian to charge the Wei army camp. In the light of the torches, their faces distorted, like monstrous beasts escaping from hell, rushing to pounce on their prey.

Hu Zhen did not dare to slack off, and under the cover of the guards, he issued orders one after another. Inspired by the sound of war drums, the Wei soldiers relied on the camp to launch a counterattack. The crossbowman pulled the bowstring across the barracks, pulled the crossbow machine, and shot a sharp arrow, and the spearman stretched out the spear, forming a dense forest of spears to prevent the Shu soldiers from approaching. Compared with the attacking Shu army, they had a camp to rely on, and they invisibly took advantage of a lot.

Deng Xian rushed to the front of the camp and launched one charge after another towards the gate of the village. The Wei army had crossbowmen at the camp gate, and they launched their shots condescendingly, and the arrows did not leave Deng Xian's position. Not to be outdone, Deng Xian ordered the guards who were good at shooting to fight back. The arrows on both sides were crossed, and people were constantly falling from arrows. The screams, the sound of arrows breaking through the air, and the sound of swords and slashing were mixed together, startling groups of mountain birds, looking at the people fighting together, and letting out frightened screams.

Meng Da went all out, impacting Hu Zhen's camp again and again, and Hu Zhen used the advantage of the camp to stubbornly launch a counterattack, blocking the Shu army from the camp. However, because of the gap in strength between the two sides, Hu Zhen also worked very hard, except for the personal guard battalion, he basically sent them to the battlefield, and he barely kept the camp.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a fierce war drum sounded to the east of Huzhi. Hu Zhen was shocked, although he sent people asking for help, but in this short period of time, it was impossible for reinforcements to arrive. Then there is only one possibility, the enemy.

Is it the Shu army or the Wu army? How could they be behind me? Hu Zhen couldn't figure it out, this situation was too abnormal.

Hu Zhen couldn't figure it out, but Meng Da was overjoyed, he knew that it must be Wei Feng and Ma Jian who had arrived. He roared: "Order, the whole army will attack, be sure to preempt Wei Feng and cut off Hu Zhen's head." ”

The reinforcements arrived, the morale of the Shu army was great, the offensive became more ferocious, and the war drums sounded like thunder, resounding in the sky.

"Kill-" Wei Feng raised his sword and galloped away.

"Kill!" A thousand Wei soldiers let out an earth-shattering roar, forming a huge arrow, quickly breaking through the rear camp of the Wei army, which was empty of troops, and rushed in.
