Chapter 59: Wei Yan is besieged

Hanzhong?

Liu Yu thought about it, Hanzhong was a good choice for himself.

Since he followed Wei Yan, he has been staying in Hanzhong, and he is quite familiar with Hanzhong.

Moreover, Wang Ping will inevitably lack manpower when he enters Hanzhong, so if he goes to him, he may be reused.

The most important thing is that Hanzhong is the northern gate of Shuzhong, and it is also the frontier base of the Northern Expedition of Shu Han.

In a few years, Jiang Wan, the great Sima of Shu Han, will personally come to Tuntian in Hanzhong to show his importance to the great cause of the Northern Expedition.

In the later period, Jiang Wei used Hanzhong as a base and repeatedly made northern expeditions.

If he stays in Hanzhong, he will definitely not lack opportunities to make meritorious contributions in the future.

Relying on his military exploits to climb up, it may not be impossible to save Shu Han.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu was about to confide in Liu Yin, but suddenly heard the sentry come to report:

"General, there's movement ahead of the crossing."

Liu Yu looked at the still gray sky, and his brows furrowed slightly.

At this time, could it be Ma Dai or Wei Yan who broke through?

"Can you see the other party's flag?"

"It was too dark to see clearly, and I only heard the sound of horses' hooves."

The Sentinel replied softly.

Liu Yu hesitated in his heart, looked at Liu Yin, and asked:

"What do you think?"

Liu Yin pondered for a moment, and said with a solemn face:

"It's very likely that someone from our army broke through, or should we go and see."

Liu Yu nodded, and then said:

"Call all the brothers and go up in the dark to see."

Liu Yin turned around to gather the guards, and then followed in front of Liu Yu, and quietly touched it in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came.

Before Liu Yu could get closer, he heard the sound of weapons clashing, mixed with bursts of shouts.

"Wei Yan, you can't escape, just grab it quickly!"

"Wei Yan, dismount and surrender, spare you from dying!"

After Liu Yu heard these voices, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, it was actually Wei Yan who broke through the encirclement and rushed out.

But Liu Yu followed the moonlight, but found that Wei Yan outside the crossing was not in a very good situation.

I saw a circle of Wei troops around it, and there were less than ten guards left beside Wei Yan, desperately protecting Wei Yan from attacks from all directions.

But there are too many enemies, and even if these people attack desperately, their numbers are getting smaller and smaller.

"General, the enemy army is strong, let's not go out..."

Liu Yin just wanted to persuade Liu Yu not to appear, but was interrupted by Liu Yu's tiger roar:

"Thieves dare to !!"

"Brothers, kill Wei Dog!!"

After speaking, Liu Yu directly picked up the big knife and rushed out of the mountain on a war horse.

Liu Yin sighed in his heart, if Wei Yan really died here, it would definitely be beneficial to Liu Yu and no harm.

But now that Liu Yu has been killed, it is useless to say more, so he can only follow behind Liu Yu and shout loudly:

"Kill Wei Dog, no one will be left!!"

Seeing this, the guards behind him shouted and followed Liu Yu, rushing towards the encirclement of the Wei army, looking at the posture, as if there were thousands of troops and horses ambushing on the mountain.

The Wei army below was shocked, and suddenly thought of the ambush they had encountered on the Bao Slope a few days ago, and quickly turned around and fled, not even seeing Liu Yu's face.

Xiahou Ba and other generals who were originally besieging Wei Yan saw this scene, and they no longer dared to attack unscrupulously, but just said hatefully:

"Wei Yan, your fate is big today, and when you are on the battlefield in the coming day, you will be beheaded."

After saying that, several people turned their horses and fled.

Regardless of whether there was an ambush or not, it was a very unwise choice for them not to dare to engage an unfamiliar enemy rashly in the dark of night when their morale was completely low.

Liu Yu was relieved to see these Wei troops turn around and flee, if it was really a short battle, Liu Yu felt that his brothers, even if they all threw themselves in, they might not be able to save Wei Yan.

Fortunately, the Wei army was killed by Zhuge Liang before, and with the help of the sky, Liu Yu was lucky.

After all, it was impossible for Liu Yu to watch Wei Yan die in front of him, and the system in his mind always reminded him that Wei Yan would not live long if he died.

Liu Yu rode his horse to Wei Yan, only to see that Wei Yan was covered in blood at the moment, and his originally red face looked extremely pale under the white moonlight at this moment.

This frightened Liu Yu, could it be that Wei Yan was seriously injured.

"General, are you alright?"

Liu Yu asked tentatively, wanting to probe Wei Yan's tone.

"Poof!"

As a result, Wei Yan spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fell straight from the horse.

"General!! Checkmate!! ”

The guards around Wei Yan were frightened and hurriedly went to help Wei Yan.

"Silence!"

Liu Yu suddenly shouted and said:

"Get out of the way."

At this time, it was impossible to find a doctor, so Liu Yu could only go on it himself.

Although Liu Yu is not a professional doctor, he has also learned some knowledge of bandaging and first aid in later generations.

The top priority is to save Wei Yan first.

After removing the armor from Wei Yan's body and tearing off his clothes, Liu Yu couldn't help but gasp.

I saw that there were no less than dozens of large and small wounds on Wei Yan's body, if it weren't for Wei Yan's strong body, I was afraid that he would not be able to bear it by now.

Being able to carry so many injuries and fight his way out of the encirclement, Wei Yan is already very remarkable.

Liu Yu took a deep breath, and then simply stopped Wei Yan's bleeding and bandaged his wounds.

By the time all these things were done, the sky had already lit up with a white belly.

"General, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, let's withdraw to the slope first, and then make a calculation."

After Liu Yu bandaged the wound and had not rested, Liu Yin on the side directly suggested:

"This place is too open, if Sima Yi's pursuers chase after us, we won't be able to escape at all."

As a result, as soon as Liu Yin's words fell, Wei Yan's personal guard on the side retorted:

"No, we can't go, our major general hasn't come back yet."

Major General is the title of Wei Yan's son Wei Chang.

Liu Yu only noticed at this time that the person who broke through yesterday was not Wei Chang.

This couldn't help but make Liu Yu feel a little inexplicably sad in his heart, when he was under Wei Yan, Wei Chang was still good to him.

But now that the sky is about to dawn, Wei Chang has not come back yet, and the end can be imagined.

Liu Yin and the soldiers around him all saw Liu Yu, after all, Liu Yu's position is now the highest, and he is also the most authoritative.

Liu Yu raised his eyes and looked at the road in the north, but there was still no trace of the Shu army.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Yu directly ordered:

"Take General Wei first and retreat to Baochuan Road."

"There are a few sentries left here, if there is news of the major general, they can go to the slope to find us."

"The sky is about to brighten, and if you don't leave, no one will be able to leave."

"Do you want General Wei to stay here as well?"

The last sentence was said to Wei Yan's personal guards, and it was this sentence that stopped everyone's words.

Liu Yu's order was carried out smoothly, Wei Yan's personal guards carried Wei Yan, and Liu Yu led the way in front, and the two teams of men and horses walked towards the Bao slope.

In this way, the two teams of 100 people have been waiting for a day and a night.

Except for dozens of Shu soldiers who escaped death, the others were not seen at all.

Whether it was Wei Chang or Ma Dai, they were all gone, which made Liu Yu's heart gradually sink to the bottom.

And the next day, Wei Yan finally came to his senses.

It's just that Wei Yan's body is still too weak, and he can only do some simple swallowing movements to barely maintain eating and drinking.

At the insistence of Wei Yan's personal guards, Liu Yu waited for another day in Baochuan Road, and also gathered dozens of Shu troops, but Wei Chang seemed to have evaporated from the world and disappeared.

Until the third day, more than 300 Shu troops, under the leadership of Liu Yu, decided to retreat south to Hanzhong along the Bao Slope Road.

After all, the dry food on his body is about to run out, and if he doesn't go back, I'm afraid everyone will starve to death.

As for Wei Chang's whereabouts, no one mentioned it, because everyone already knew Wei Chang's ending.

And Ma Dai's fate has also become a mystery, because none of the Shu troops who fled back were Shu soldiers who followed Ma Dai.

At this point, the Fifth Northern Expedition launched by Zhuge Liang finally came to an end.

Although this time the Northern Expedition defeated the Wei army, and once had a chance to capture Longyou.

But in the end, it fell short, and with the death of Zhuge Liang, the Shu army had no choice but to retreat to Shuzhong.

However, history has changed here, at least Wei Yan was not killed by Yang Yi as in history.
