Chapter 393: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers

Dian Man was shocked in his heart, could it be that Zhang Fei was injured before, but Liu Qi deliberately deceived him and secretly transferred him to attack Lantian?

However, his newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he has always been dissatisfied with veterans like Zhang Fei.

The two horses were staggered, Zhang Fei's snake spear was extremely long, and before his iron halberd reached the other party, he was hooked by the spearhead on the iron halberd branch, and under the huge force, the iron halberd flew out of his hand.

This iron halberd could have been able to attack and defend, if you hooked the opponent's weapon with a small branch, the other hand could counterattack, but once the strength was inferior to the opponent, it would be self-defeating and subject to it.

Although Dian Man held the iron halberd with all his strength, he was far inferior to Zhang Fei, and he knew that he was not his opponent with just one face.

At this time, seeing Zhang Fei's sneak attack, he didn't dare to fight again, so he urged the horse to go straight to the side slope and the path, and abandoned the horse into the mountain before the dense forest.

When the Han army chased half of it, it was long gone, and Zhang Fei ordered him to retreat and surrounded those Cao troops to persuade him to surrender.

Liu Xiong was puzzled: "Why doesn't the general chase and kill Dianman, wouldn't he let the tiger return to the mountain?" ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Tiger? I think he's just a sick cat. ”

Liu Xiong frowned and said: "If you escape, you will return to Chang'an to report the news, the defenders are prepared, and it may not be easy for the general to attack the city." ”

Zhang Feiyan said: "It's still useful for me to keep this person, if I don't return to Chang'an, who will take the defenders out of the fight?" ”

Ordered Liu Xiong to take prisoners, Zhang Fei personally led the troops to the interior of Lantian Pass, at this time the defeated army had fled back, and the pass was shocked.

Zhang Fei hit the horse to the pass, and shouted: "Dianman Xiaoer has fled, you wait to open the door as soon as possible, if you are killed by me into the pass, there will be no armor left." ”

The main forces in the pass fled with the dianman, Cao Jun saw that the main general fled, Lantian Pass suffered from the enemy on his back, and the Han army treated the prisoners well, and opened the door and surrendered after a little hesitation.

Dian Man crossed the mountains and mountains, escaped from Qinling from the path, and fled to Lantian on foot with only more than 100 personal guards, not daring to stop, and changed horses to report to Chang'an.

Du Xi was shocked when he heard the report, and discussed with Xiahou Nan: "Liu Qi used trickery again, Zhang Fei deceived his illness to take Chang'an, who can stop it?" ”

Xiahou Nan scolded: "If the father and son are both reckless, the prime minister ordered you to guard the pass, why do you have to fight?" Now that I have lost Lantian Pass and failed to live up to Cheng Xinren, if I still have half of my blood, I should apologize for my crimes, what did I do when I came to see me? ”

Dian Manman's face was flushed, and he picked up the halberd with a roar, and slashed it at his neck, and several pro-soldiers hurriedly grabbed him and knelt on the ground to plead for mercy.

When Du Xian heard the news, he hurriedly persuaded: "Zhang Fei's bypassing of the mountains is really unexpected, and it is really not his fault, I hope the general will forgive him for the time being, and wait for his meritorious service to atone for his crimes." ”

"Losing Lantian Pass endangers Chang'an, how can you spare him?" Xiahou Nan was furious, and ordered the beheading to be carried out left and right.

Du Xi persuaded again: "Remembering that his father and son are loyal, the prime minister loves him very much, and he asks the general to think twice." The three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find, Zhang Feiqi attacked Lantian with the intention of Chang'an. Now the army is exhausted, the return of reinforcement is too late, there is no general in the city, why not order him to defend the city, the victory will atone for the crime, the defeat will be punished for the two crimes, the future prime minister asked, it is easy to explain. ”

Mentioning the situation in Guanzhong, Xiahou Nan's heart sank, and he said: "I will allocate another 20,000 elite soldiers to you, and be sure to stop Zhang Fei in Lantian and wait for the army to support." ”

Du Xun hurriedly persuaded: "The general must not, Zhang Fei's bravery, there are still rivals, Chang'an is strong, there is enough money and food, enough to defend himself, why send troops?" ”

Xiahou Nan said angrily: "If the enemy army enters the country, if you don't welcome the enemy and let him kill him under Chang'an City, the front army will definitely be in chaos, and Guanzhong will be in danger!" At that time, Liu Qi took the initiative to meet the prime minister in Nanyang in order to protect Jingzhou, and this so-called mourning soldier will win! ”

Then he did not listen to Du Raid's hard advice, and ordered Dian Man to lead 20,000 elite soldiers to meet the enemy in Lantian, Du Raid recruited troops from near Chang'an, and captured all the young and strong into the city to set up defenses.

At the same time, he sent a fast horse to report to Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang, asking them to return to Chang'an as soon as possible to support, Chang'an is the foundation of Guanzhong, once the city is lost, even if Xiahou Yuan wins, it will be difficult to continue to march the army.

Dianman was ordered to go out of the city, led the troops to Lantian, discussed with the county commander to defend the city, mobilized the city servants and people's husbands to repair the city, prepared ash bottles, rolling wood, etc., and vowed to live and die with the city.

Zhang Fei led his troops to Lantian and ordered Fu Wei and Hu Ji to lead an army and surround the city on three sides, while Liu Xiong led his men and horses to cut off his grain and grass.

This time, Dian was full of shame and bravery, allowing Zhang Fei, Wang Shuang, and Fu Wei to take turns scolding and shouting, but they couldn't defend it, and waited for the army to rush back to support Chang'an.

Zhang Fei did not send troops to attack the city, but sent soldiers to shout every day to persuade the defenders to surrender and break the morale of the army, leaving only the north gate for him to escape.

Seeing that Dian Man was bent on sticking to it, he simply changed into a soft towel and a Confucian shirt, and went to the city every day to drink and paint, sometimes drunk until he was drunk, and sometimes he depicted the scenery of the Qinling Mountains in the distance, and returned with joy.

Seeing that Zhang Fei was so arrogant, and if there was no one around, a few people couldn't help but beg for battle, and their faces were gloomy, and they tried their best to appease them, and they must not make big mistakes on impulse at this time.

After another two days, there was no movement of Cao Jun, Zhang Fei simply called Wang Shuang, Fu Wei, and Hu Ji, and the four of them set up a table under the city together, drank and guessed boxing, and competed and frolicked, as if in their own house.

"Deceiving people too much, is it tolerable or unbearable?" Dianman finally couldn't hold it anymore and was ready to go to war.

Being blocked at the door of the house to eat and drink like this, even if Zhang Fei is blocked, he will be laughed at by the people of the world when it is spread out, and it will damage the prestige of Dian Wei, not to mention, so what kind of face does he have to command the army?

The county commander hurriedly persuaded: "The general should not be impulsive, this is Zhang Fei's plan!" Previously, when he was in the Central Plains, this thief pretended to be drunk and defeated Liu Dai, but now he is doing the same trick and doesn't need to pay attention to it. ”

Dian Man sneered: "Liu Dai and others are just mediocre disciples, when they were in Xuchang, they had learned the art of war with the prince of the world, and they also had a lot of experience, Zhang Fei was drunk to lure the enemy, how could he not know?" Now he is about to make him reap the consequences of his own evil and regret it. ”

When he came to the city to watch, he saw Zhang Fei drinking seven or eight buckets of wine, drunk and lying in front of the tent, Wang Shuang soon got drunk, although Fu Wei and Hu Ji were still sober, but they were persuaded by Zhang Fei to drink one after another, and they were also drunk and slightly drunk, and their feet were unstable.

Seeing the Han army return to the camp, Dianman called several lieutenant generals, and ordered the camp to be robbed at the third watch, burning Zhang Fei's camp first, and when the other two doors were rescued, the ambush soldiers were killed, so that it was difficult to take care of the head and tail.

After dark, Dianman personally led the troops out of the city and went straight to the Han army camp, and sure enough, seeing that the garrison was lax, a thousand people set fire to the camp, and by the spring breeze, it spread instantly.

The firelight rushed straight to the sky, illuminating the county seat of Lantian, and Dian Man was not in a hurry to enter the camp, but only ordered people to release arrows in the distance, beat drums and shout.

Sure enough, soon I saw that the Han army from the east and west came to support, and the camp was in chaos, lighting torches to release signals, the defenders of the city beat drums and cheered, and the ambush soldiers in the city were exhausted.

The pawn shouted first, and led the soldiers into Zhang Feizhai from the gap, and went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army.

I saw that the camp tent was lit with firelight, and the figures were moving, and just before they arrived, several soldiers hurried out carrying a huge body, and the people on it slept like dead pigs, and snored like thunder.

"Zhang Heizi, where to go?" Seeing that it was Zhang Fei, Dian Man couldn't help but be overjoyed, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become famous, and he struggled to urge the horse forward, and the iron halberd swept towards the guards.
