Chapter 875: The Great Chaos in Hanzhong (Supplement 1/100)
"If I meet Jia Xu again, I will kill him!"
There are only a few thousand remnants left around Lu Bu, and if he enters the difficult meridian road and marches all the way, he may lose some soldiers and horses.
Meridian Road near Chang'an City, you can go to Hanzhong.
During the Shu Han Dynasty, Wei Yan had planned to attack Chang'an City along the Meridian Road.
In fact, Cao Zhen, the general of Cao Wei, really tried to attack Shu Han through the Meridian Road, but it was in the rainy season, and Cao's army took a month to walk half the way, and Cao Zhen was ordered to retreat.
Zhuge Liang rejected the Meridian Dao scheme, one of the reasons is estimated to be that the Meridian Road is not easy to walk.
Lu Bu and Li Yuanhao fled into the Meridian Valley, avoiding Chu Tian's soldiers and hanging.
"The only thing you can rely on is me, and when we get to Hanzhong, we can make a comeback!"
Li Yuanhao still did not give up.
Both sides of the meridian road are cliffs, connected by ancient and even broken plank roads, and some plank roads are even suspended in the middle of the mountain, shrouded in clouds and mist.
Hanzhong County, with its closed terrain, has become a contest for all forces.
Hanzhong led the Tao and couldn't say that there was bitterness in his heart.
He helped Chutian send troops to attack Xiliang, and now Hanzhong has become a refuge for some ambitious generals, and it is a chaos.
No matter how closed the terrain was, the beacon fire eventually burned from Guanzhong to Hanzhong.
The rebels of the Di tribe had invaded Hanzhong from Wudu County, and Fu Jian, the leader of the Di people, rode a tiger and fought against Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, the generals of the Hanzhong army.
The main generals of the Hanzhong army, Li Zicheng and Zhang Jiao, could only resist Yang Su's offensive, and could only let Chen Sheng and Wu Guanglai resist the Diren rebels who invaded Hanzhong.
The generals of Hanzhong did not know how many soldiers and horses arrived from Wudu County, and who led the team.
In addition to the large number of low-level peasant armies, Zhang Dao did not have many first-class commanders, so he had to send Chen Sheng and Wu Guang to command more than 100,000 peasant troops.
The peasant army of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang was better than the rebel army of the Di people who entered Hanzhong.
However, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang didn't know that they were at a disadvantage.
Although Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were the leaders of the peasant army, they were not necessarily qualified commanders.
"Deng Qiang, Zhang Oy, do you dare to go with me and break through the enemy formation?"
Lu Guang, the fierce general of the Di people, fought against two 10,000 enemies.
"Why don't you dare!"
Deng Qiang holds a spear and is majestic.
"I'm happy to accompany you!"
Zhang Oyster swings his spear.
Before rushing into battle, Deng Qiang said to the deputy general Xu Cheng: "Be optimistic about the lord, don't let him get hurt." ”
"Yes."
Xu Cheng was ostensibly responsible for protecting Fu Jian, but in fact he was also monitoring Fu Jian.
Fu Jian tended to sinicization, while Lü Guang, Deng Qiang and others wanted to establish themselves as kings, and wanted to conquer Hanzhong, merge with Wudu County, and establish a kingdom, and this group of generals would become the rulers of the Di Kingdom.
Fu Jian lacked the force to protect himself, so he could only let Lü Guang, Deng Qiang and others command the troops and horses.
Three fierce generals, leading about 20,000 cavalry, and 10,000 infantry as backup, only 30,000 troops, took the initiative to attack Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's more than 100,000 people!
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's army of more than 100,000 people was overwhelmed by black.
It's just that the millions of people in Hanzhong can't produce enough iron armor to equip hundreds of thousands of troops in a short period of time.
Therefore, the armor of most of the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang legions is only leather armor, or even no armor, and the elite who are really equipped with iron armor are mainly half-body armor.
In the face of the Diren cavalry, who were smaller than their own but took the initiative to attack, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's army had no intention of retreating!
"The people don't take us seriously!"
"The prince will have a kind of Xiangning!"
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang seemed to have been provoked by the Di generals, and the other party attacked more with less, which meant that they looked down on Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, so Chen Sheng and Wu Guang took the initiative to set up a formation to meet the Di rebels!
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang have the ability to inspire morale, and their legions are full of enthusiasm before the decisive battle, with high morale, and the combat power has been raised to the peak!
The infantry in the front row is armed with cowhide shields, and the infantry in the rear is armed with spears, forming a dense phalanx of spears!
The front is held by an impregnable phalanx of spears, supplemented by a large number of crossbowmen on both sides, in an attempt to suppress the Diren cavalry!
The war horse galloped, and Lu Guang was not afraid in the face of the majestic peasant army at the end of Qin!
Among the peasant armies at the end of Qin, the two armies that were really strong were Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, while Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were a little worse and were suppressed by the Qin army that reacted.
If they were facing Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, the Diren rebels would not dare to be so arrogant.
And in the face of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, they directly galloped and assaulted!
Lü Guang was responsible for the frontal breakthrough, while Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao cooperated tacitly, and each led a cavalry to separate from the main force of the Diren rebels and attack the flanks of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang!
The three fierce generals joined forces, and the Diren cavalry rolled up the billowing dust!
They have the ability to weaken the morale of the other party, and when the Di cavalry attacked, the morale of the peasant army, which was originally high, began to decline rapidly! Love Book House
Deng Qiang has been fighting fiercely with the peasant army on the left flank, from time to time a war horse was shot by a bow and arrow and fell to the ground, and Deng Qiang completely ignored the casualties of the cavalry under his command, the war horse trampled on the cowhide shield, Deng Qiang swept with a spear, and more than a dozen spears in front were swept off by Deng Qiang!
Deng Qiang relied on his own strength to forcibly open a small breakthrough for the Diren cavalry in the rear!
The Di cavalry then killed, a large number of cavalry rushed to the breach, and after hundreds of Di cavalry were shot by bows and crossbows, Deng Qiang's cavalry tore apart the left flank peasant army!
10,000 cavalry relied on the impact of war horses to forcibly break the formation!
Tens of thousands of peasant troops were routed by war horses, and the high morale bonus brought by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang soon disappeared, and the formation of the peasant army collapsed.
"Fight the enemy!"
A peasant army general drove the reserve to step forward to block Deng Qiang, who was advancing forward.
However, the peasant army reserves hesitated, and the ferocity of the Diren cavalry made them greatly frightened and panicked.
Deng Qiang's war horse didn't know when it had been killed, the horse's hooves were raised high, Deng Qiang was condescending, and nailed this peasant army general to the ground with a spear!
The sharp spear almost effortlessly pierced through the armor of the peasant army generals!
Kill it instantly with a spear!
Deng Qiang stretched out his hand again and pulled out the spear, which was stained with blood.
"Hiss......"
The surrounding peasant soldiers were even more frightened, and Deng Qiang's bravery was beyond their imagination.
"Who dares to fight?!"
Deng Qiang shouted, and the ring-headed knife in the hand of a peasant sergeant fell to the ground, but he was frightened by Deng Qiang and lost his weapon.
On the front, Lü Guang interfered with the formation of the peasant army with light cavalry, and then attacked Chen Sheng's peasant army in batches with heavy cavalry.
"The people are fierce and invincible!"
Chen Sheng was gradually unable to control the peasant army, and once the morale of the peasant army was broken, then he would not be able to return to heaven.
It seems that the peasant army has an advantage in strength, but most of the peasant army is a low-level soldier recruited by Zhang Dao with the characteristics of explosive soldiers, and they lack experience, and they are attacked by the experienced Diren cavalry and are crushed for thousands of miles.
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang fled.
The Di cavalry took advantage of the situation to pursue, expand the results of the battle, and occupy the surrounding cities and villages.
"This is a complete betrayal of the Han Empire, and it is difficult to clean up the ......"
Fu Jian was helpless in the face of a difficult situation, he was no longer able to control his subordinates.
When the chaotic times lose order, these out-of-control fierce generals act according to their own preferences, and as leaders, they can only go with the flow.
"In this battle, 20,000 were killed, 40,000 were captured, and the rest of the people were running, it was really happy!"
After the defeat of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Lü Guang, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao and other former Qin fierce generals gathered around the fire.
At the end of the twelfth year of the lord's calendar, it had begun to enter the cold winter, and Hanzhong was also slaughtered.
The battle between the Diren cavalry and Xu Fengnian's army did not go well, but they were invincible after entering Hanzhong, which also indirectly shows that the Hanzhong peasant army is much different from the brave and warlike army that Xu Fengnian brought back from outside the pass.
"Lord, in less than a day, we can march to Nanzheng County, and then you will be the king of the Di Kingdom, Da Dan Yu, and the king of Hanzhong."
Lu Guang, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao and other generals congratulated Fu Jian in advance.
Fu Jian was forcibly pushed to the position by his subordinates, with a bitter gourd face.
Zhang Dao was still engaged in battle with the invading Yang Su army in southern Hanzhong, and when he heard that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated, his brows tightened.
Although Zhang Dao still has the status of a prince, his situation is the same as that of Zhang Lu in history.
The population of Hanzhong is really not enough, and millions of people have to block the attack of princes with a population of tens of millions.
At present, Li Zicheng is still Zhang Dao's first general, and there is a big gap with Yang Su and others, Yang Su is the first commander of the Sui Dynasty, and he has resourcefulness, which is really not comparable to Li Zicheng.
Zhang Dao was also able to rely on the steep terrain between Hanzhong and Chengdu to defend, but Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated, and the Diren rebels looted everywhere, and Hanzhong was in danger.
"The situation in Hanzhong has gotten out of control, and the teleportation array has a limited number of troops transmitted every day, and if it doesn't retreat in time, it may be besieged in Hanzhong."
Zhang Dao learned that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were defeated, and he lacked the strength to resist Yang Su's entry into the customs, and knew that he had to give up Hanzhong, which had been in business for a long time.
Hanzhong became a dangerous place.
At present, the three forces of Yang Su, Fu Jian, and Lu Bu are attacking Hanzhong from three different directions, and Zhang Dao's two fists are difficult to defeat with his four hands, and he is tired of coping with it, so he simply retains his strength.
After Yang Su used assassins to assassinate Liu An, the lord of Baishui Pass, he tried to use assassins to assassinate Zhang Dao's generals.
Assassins have a limited effect on princes of Chu Tian's size, but for Zhang Dao, who has a population of several million, assassination has a great deterrent effect.
After all, Zhang Dao did not have a guard of Dian Wei's level, so he needed to guard against assassins carefully.
Zhang Jiao asked Zhang Dao: "Lord, let's withdraw to Guanzhong?" ”
"No, Nanzheng County may be attacked by soldiers, and the teleportation array will be lost, and we will not be able to use the teleportation array in Nanzheng County to escape. If you take the mountain road to Guanzhong, you will definitely lose countless losses, so it is better to withdraw to Shangyong City. ”
When Zhang Dao was running Hanzhong, he also prepared a back road for himself, that is, the three cities of Fangling, Shangyong, and Xicheng, of which Shangyong City had a teleportation array.
Zhang Dao lost 100,000 soldiers and horses in Chuyang County, and had to lead the remnants of his troops down the Han River.
In the twelfth year of the cold winter of the lord's calendar, soldiers and horses from all walks of life entered Hanzhong, Hanzhong was in chaos, and the original Hanzhong Taishou Zhang Dao was forced to retreat to Shangyong City.
