Guocheng (Shunqing, now Nanchong), the Chongguo army, was originally left in place to prevent the Ba people from taking advantage of the Bashu War to sneak attack, but the defenders did not seriously implement the orders of their new monarch, and the Ba army suddenly attacked and hurriedly met the battle.

The army was not at all a meal for the well-prepared and eager warriors of the Pakistani country, who left behind important towns and more than 1,000 people killed and wounded in battle, and fled for their lives.

Gongsun Ba Rui, Lieutenant General Ba Xiu and others entered the city, ate and drank enough, and did not have time to rest, and ordered a deputy general to lead more than 800 troops, taking advantage of the city, to hold the necessary crossing of the nearest and best route to save the army, and desperately block it for a day and a half - this is the difference between the time it takes for the calculated reinforcements to get the news and then to the return journey and the time it takes for the Pakistani army to attack the capital under normal circumstances.

Judging from the current situation, it should be said that this sneak attack, only in terms of quality, was more successful than the battle against Guzhang of Chu organized by the independent leadership of General Ba Xiu in the previous year, and it took the lead at a very small cost. Among them, the warriors of Hu'an Mountain only killed three people in battle, which is almost the smallest proportion of our enemies killed in all previous battles.

After winning the first battle, Gongsun Ba Rui became more confident and led the remaining more than 2,000 people to rush to the capital of Chongguo.

Chongguo capital city Langzhong, also known as Baoning (China's four famous vinegar Baoning vinegar production area), is located in the northeast of the Sichuan Basin, located in the middle reaches of the Jialing River, the southern foot of Qinba Mountain, surrounded by water on three sides, surrounded by mountains on all sides, except for a river water crossing through, it is simply a closed small basin.

Langzhong is the key point of Bashu, has always been a military place, and later in the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei, a famous general of Shu, guarded this place for seven years, which shows its military importance.

The strange thing is that the cute famous Zhang Yide, everywhere he goes, will create the famous brand of "Zhang Fei Beef". In fact, it is not surprising that he originally killed pigs.

Not only that, the scenery of Langzhong is unique, and it has the reputation of "Langyuan Wonderland" and "Langzhong is rare in the world". Later, it was rebuilt in the Tang Dynasty and built in full accordance with the astronomical feng shui theory of the Tang Dynasty, so it was known as the "ancient city of feng shui", and the ancient city of Lijiang, Pingyao and Huizhou were called "the four most well-preserved ancient cities in China".

Without further ado, the book gets back to business.

Such a typical place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the Pakistani army that took advantage of the victory easily entered the "small basin" of Langzhong.

This is not a fluke, nor is it that the army ran away when he heard the news, but the king of Wuzhen, who had just become the king of Chongguo, saw that the Pakistani army was menacing, and he didn't know how many troops there were for a while, so he ordered to shrink the defense line, taking advantage of the disadvantage that the Pakistani army had no war boats in the distance, and ordered all the boats and boats to be concentrated on the water in front of the capital, leaving no boat, one person, or one grain for the Ba people, and wanted to use the natural barrier of Langshui to defend the capital.

When the Ba people reached the jungle a few miles on the edge of Langshui, they felt that real trouble was coming. Peeking at the beautiful capital city across the river, there is nothing to be done for a while.

Gongsun Ba Rui ordered that all the Pakistani troops should be hidden in the mountains and forests several miles away from the river, and not many people should be exposed.

Ba Rui knew that the sneak attack must be completely completed before a large number of troops were charged, and there might even be a Shu army to rescue them, including slapping their butts and leaving after they were done.

Time is victory, although Barry considered the situation of no war boat before, and when he really faced the strong wall of the country, he was still anxious.

No matter how urgent it was, it was useless to make a plan immediately, and Gongsun Ba Rui had a brief discussion with Lieutenant General Ba Xiu and Jiangzhou Huben General Ba Lu - because this was a sneak attack led by three Ba Shi generals, some people later jokingly called it "Three Ba Vachong" - and then ordered the leaders of each department to immediately go to the current position of the main general to discuss countermeasures.

In a slightly flattened cork oak (coarse-skinned green oak) forest, fifteen or sixteen bars faced Langzhong City and the river in front of it, pointing fingers and discussing ways to march into the army.

First of all, some people proposed that at night, they should touch the upper reaches of the river, cut down bamboo trees, go down the river, and float to the opposite bank.

Lieutenant General Ba Xiu said: "We have already thought of this method. However, this is not the best way to go. At present, we only have less than 2,000 people, and the Chong army, even if it is to assist most of the Shu army, it is estimated that there are no less than 2,000 warriors, and if we add the people to help the war, there are more than 5,000 to say the least. The army occupied the advantage of war boats, the advantage in numbers, and the countless bows and arrows, our army forced the crossing, and the casualties must have been very large. Guys, is there a better way?"

Everyone pondered and meditated hard and proposed several methods, but Gongsun Ba Rui and Lieutenant General Ba Xiu both thought that it was not the best, and thought that it was really not possible, so they could only attack.

At this time, the big tribe of Hu'an Mountain said to Menglong: "You can consider borrowing a boat." ”

Yu Shui Bapeng smiled first: "Menglong, you said it lightly, holding a lamp grass, there is no one on this side of the river, who are you going to borrow a boat from?"

Before he could reply, Gongsun Ba Rui smiled first: "Wonderful!"

Lieutenant General Ba Xiu continued: "I think it's negotiable." ”

Someone asked: "Who did you borrow the boat from?" It is estimated that no one dares to borrow it within the territory of the country. ”

Ba Rui said: "Menglong, let's see if we want to go together." ”

Yu Menglong said: "In order to prevent the warriors from fleeing to the Tho realm after the defeat of the warriors, they must have troops on Langshui, and among them, there must be sailors. Since we have envoys to the country of Tho, we might as well go to the nearest people of the country of Tho to borrow a boat, which is so that one guest does not bother the two masters. ”

Someone said: "I'm afraid, the people of Tho refuse to borrow." ”

Another humanitarian: "The big war is imminent, but it is inappropriate to go to borrow a boat hundreds of miles away." "At that time, one mile was about 380 meters equivalent to today.

"Sticking to the law, the most defeated, I think there is nothing wrong, especially when I go to Sheung Shui. The people of Chong Guo thought that it was impossible for us to have war boats, so they still seemed calm, and if a group of Pakistani boat divisions suddenly appeared on the river, they would be surprised and their morale would be shaken. It would be great if you could do the magic again. In addition, even if you take other methods, you need to prepare for a lot of time, so it is not impossible to take advantage of this gap to give it a try. Barry said.

"The matter has come to this, he has to borrow it, if he doesn't borrow, we have to borrow! Behind us is the army that has been rescued by the country, and before tomorrow evening, if we don't cross the river, seize the boat, and go down the river, then we can only die in Langshui! Of course, it is still too late to escape, so we will start to build a bamboo raft now, give up attacking the opposite city, and go back directly along the river. However, if that happens, all of us will lose face!" Lieutenant General Ba Xiu said solemnly.

In fact, if necessary, give up entering Langzhong City, then half of the task is completed (luring the Chong army back to rescue, the Pakistani army defeated the Shu army in the frontal battlefield), it was Ba Rui who thought of the last way to retreat before he set off, otherwise he would not approve of the sneak attack plan, this time he was pierced by Ba Xiu, and said: "The lieutenant general is right! Since Menglong you think of this, you will borrow it from your department, how about it?"

Xiao Menglong said: "My department is naturally willing to go." However, there will be a word in the end, and if you don't allow it, you won't dare to borrow it. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to speak!" said Barry.

"First, the last general still needs helpers, and second, no matter what method we use to borrow the war boat, we cannot find out whether it is wrong or right after the fact. ”

Some people understood the words behind the dream, some people didn't, and everyone looked at Gongsun Barui.

Barry thought for a while and said, "Okay! The first thing is needless to say, and the second thing is a certainty: I will carry everything!"

As soon as it gets dark, our department will set off immediately!"

Lieutenant General Ba Xiu said: "Let's prepare with both hands." Please go with the two samurai, Ba Peng Gongzi and Gongbiao Gongzi. The three of you have fought together for many years, and I am more relieved. I borrowed it, but I still can't borrow a boat, and I must come back tomorrow afternoon at the latest. We only have two days, and we won't have more than an hour. ”

Ba Peng and Gong Biao Ba had no choice but to make meritorious contributions, and immediately called "Nuo!"

Ba Xiu said again: "Menglong, you'd better borrow something else and come back." ”

Dream Dragon smiled.

Ba Rui comprehended, shouted "wonderful", and then ordered the other departments to cut down trees, collect thatch, and go down to the edge of Langshui at night, in addition to setting up the wood and grass huts that really need to be used, but also make more than twice as many empty tents, and light some sparks that seem to be clear and not clear, so that the people on the other side of the bank can see the "innumerable" Pakistani army, and at the same time, make preparations for forcibly crossing the river if necessary.

After eating and drinking, preparing enough dry food, just as night fell, under the guidance of the guide hired by Ba Ruixian at a high price on the way here, more than 300 warriors of the three major tribes of Dan Fushui went to the direction of Langshui.

After a night of marching, just after dawn, the Danfushui warriors arrived at the border of Chongguo and Tho, and there was indeed a military camp and many warboats.

At this time, the wind was strong and rustled in the trees.

After discussing with Ba Peng and Gong Biao, it was decided that the troops would be divided into three routes: Gong Biao led more than 20 people to set fire to the wind to attract the Tho army to put out the fire; Ba Peng led more than 170 people to block between the barracks and the boat dock; and Gu Menglong led more than 100 people from his headquarters to go to the river to grab boats.

Go your separate ways.
