Chapter 378: Caught in a desperate situation, his strength was captured

There is an old Chinese saying that "the mourning soldier will win". Chen Sheng took advantage of the time when Shu Han was mourning for Guan Xing, and the surprise attack was successful, taking the lead, and it was indeed a blow to the already low morale of the Shu army. However, the opposite is true, in the case of the defeat of the Shu army, it is inevitable to stimulate the blood of some people, not to mention the peerless fierce general like Wei Yan. The first battle was unfavorable, which made Wei Yan lose face in front of Zhao Shu, even if it was for the prestige of guarding Hanzhong for many years, Wei Yan should give it a go. Wei Yan personally stabbed his sword, took his two sons and his subordinates to the dead, and launched a powerful counterattack behind the Shu army that was fighting and retreating.

Most of Chen Sheng's subordinates were still the cavalry of Cao Wei's traditional hegemony, and if they fought on the plains, they would definitely have an absolute advantage. But the deeper you go into the heart of the camp, the more obstacles there are, the more obstacles such as tents, baggage, etc., it is difficult to exert its powerful impact. The dark night is undoubtedly more advantageous for the Shu army, which is on foot and has powerful lethal weapons. The death battle between Wei Yan's father and son slowed down the advance of the Wei army, which bought time for the rest of the generals to complete the order of Zhao Shu to encircle. Compared with Chen Sheng's thousands of subordinates, the Shu army has an absolute advantage in numbers, looking at the Shu Han army that has been rushing to support from the front and back, Chen Sheng has only one question, why Xiahou Mao's rear army has not yet arrived? A sense of foreboding gradually loomed over the young and ambitious general.

"Big brother, big brother." Xu Yi rushed to Chen Sheng covered in blood, although he wanted to whisper as much as he could, his naturally rough voice still made many sergeants on the left and right look sideways, "The Shu army has cut off our way back." ”

For this unfortunate news, Chen Sheng's surprise in his heart was no less than that of Xu Yi, but as the chief general, he couldn't show the slightest panic, and just asked very calmly: "What about the military horses that Xiahou Dudu received?" ”

"Xiahou Mao, this bastard......" Speaking of this person, Xu Yi could not hide the resentment in his heart, and replied: "Since our army started the war, there has been no news of him, and now the Shu army has tens of thousands of people guarding the way, I am afraid that I will not be able to count on it anymore." ”

From the time Chen Sheng led people to rush into the Shu Han military camp, it has been a full time now, and Xiahou Mao is only less than ten miles behind Chen Sheng, and he has enough time to respond. The reason why there is not the slightest news so far, there is only one explanation, that is, Xiahou Mao didn't think about coming to pick him up at all, Chen Sheng suddenly felt a little bitter at the root of his tongue. Thinking that this Xiahou Mao robbery camp is fake, and it is true to exclude dissidents by the hands of the Shu army, I should have thought that this miscellaneous party could do anything for personal grievances, including ignoring the Jiangshan Society of Great Wei.

Xu Yi's voice, even on the noisy battlefield, was enough for hundreds of people on the left and right to hear it clearly, and many soldiers could understand what the result would be if thousands of lone soldiers were surrounded by an army of 100,000 without any foreign aid. The horror of human beings can never defeat death, and for a while, many sergeants looked at Chen Sheng with a little trust in confusion, hoping that the general they had always relied on could have a way to reverse this bad situation and bring them home alive.

At this moment, even if Chen Sheng has great ability, it is impossible to guarantee his soldiers, and he feels ashamed of the trust of these subordinates who have followed him for many years. Bad news always spreads ten, ten spreads hundreds, and the Wei army, which was originally high morale, soon lost its morale and gradually lost some of its original advantages. The battle line is getting closer and closer, but the Shu army is pressing step by step, and it is still surrounded by water.

Chen Sheng understood that if he continued to fight, it was likely to lead to a result, that is, all these thousands of people were buried under the swords and guns of the Shu army, so he had to make a painful decision and said to Xu Yi: "Brother Xian will lead people to withdraw first, and then break off for my brother." Although he knew that after the word "withdraw" was exported, not only would his fighting spirit be affected, but also the morale of the whole army would be greatly reduced, and he would no longer be able to reproduce the momentum of breaking through the bamboo at the beginning.

At the moment of life and death, Xu Yi naturally wanted to save this Sairu's biological brother with his own life, but he listened to Chen Sheng's whisper: "The defeat of this battle is not a crime of war, nor is it a crime of being a brother." But even if my brother can break out of the encirclement, Xiahou Mao will definitely kill me for the crime of losing my soldiers. The virtuous brother is the son of the tiger marquis, for the sake of the ancestors, as long as the virtuous brother does not mention tonight's events, Xiahou Mao will not dare to embarrass you. When he sees His Majesty in person, he hopes that the virtuous brother can seek justice for his brother and the brothers who died. Xu Yi heard that the senior brother's words seemed to have the intention of explaining the future, and couldn't help but moisten his eyes slightly, and persuaded: "Brother and junior brother go together, see who in the Shu army can stop my two brothers?" ”

Chen Sheng still shook his head and said, "Although you and my brother are good at martial arts, are there no capable people in the Shu army?" Even Wei Yan alone is not easy to deal with, not to mention that there are 100,000 troops watching him? Died for my brother's heavy blow to Guan Xing, the Shu army hated me to the bone, and he would be willing to get it. After breaking off for the younger brother, he can attract more Shu troops for the virtuous brother to save the lives of the virtuous brother and the soldiers. Seeing that Xu Yi was going to fight again, he said: "How can a man be a husband like this?" As long as the virtuous brother can meet His Majesty and bring down the sinister villain Xiahou Mao, he will be satisfied with being a brother. ”

Seeing that the Shu army was tightened and there were many arrows shooting left and right, Xu Yi knew that he would not break through yet, so he had no chance, so he immediately hugged his fists and said: "Brother, take care." "Lead some of the men and horses to clash diagonally. When Chen Sheng saw Xu Yi leaving, he also shouted: "There are sons and daughters of Great Wei who died in battle, and there are no surrenderers." "Lead the rest of the army and horses not to retreat, but to advance, and face the battle of Wei Yan.

As Chen Sheng expected, most of the Shu army thought about the heavy reward promised by Zhao Shu, and they all looked at the "Chen" banner to besiege and kill, and the surrounding soldiers and horses gathered more and more, and they really let Xu Yi escape with a few subordinates. But Chen Sheng was under siege, and he picked out dozens of generals in central Sichuan with a spear, and fought until dawn before he was captured.

Hearing the battle report, Zhao Shu immediately remembered Zhao Zilong on the long board slope back then, such a proud record, I am afraid that no one else can match it. In the face of this rare tiger general, Zhao Shu hesitated slightly, if it was someone else, he would have tried to surrender, but Chen Shengqian should not have seriously injured Guan Xing to death. Based on this alone, Zhao Shu had no reason to let him go. The generals in the tent, such as Wei Yan, Ye Feng and others, all saw Chen Sheng's bravery, and had the intention to say that Zhao Shu surrendered, but they all knew that Guan Xing was injured by Chen Sheng, so they had to say nothing, and looked at Zhao Shu together, waiting for him to make a decision.

After hesitating again and again, Zhao Shu still asked Chen Sheng opportunistically: "Since the general has been captured, is he willing to surrender?" Chen Sheng sneered and didn't answer. No answer is the best answer, and Zhao Shu also just waved his hand and motioned for him to be pushed out and beheaded. Ye Feng knew that Chen Sheng would not surrender, and he also knew that Zhao Shu could not spare him, and seeing that Chen Sheng was escorted out of the tent, he stepped forward and said, "The last general will go to give General Chen a ride." ”

Heroes cherish heroes, Zhao Shu was willing to understand Ye Feng's mood and nodded in agreement. Ye Feng hurriedly turned around and walked out of the tent, but after a while, he hurriedly turned around and said eagerly: "Leave people under the saber." ”
