Zhang Fei was limited to his own seasickness, and when he was in Jiangdong and Jingchu, he often commanded troops to fight in the mountains. There are more and more mountains to cover or fight, and all kinds of mountainous areas in the south have been drilled, but they have a unique view of mountain warfare.

Zhang Fei's unique secret recipe is not anything else, that is, to find a path, drill into the forest, go around behind the enemy, look for flaws, and give a fatal blow.

However, this method of employing troops seems simple, but it has difficulties. For example, Huo Qubing and Li Guang both attacked the Huns in the north at the same time, why Li Guang was always lost, but Huo Qubing had his own GPS. Since Huo Qu's disease is detailed, he is different from Li Guangzhong in terms of army management, and it can even be said that this is talent, and there is nothing he can do.

Zhang Fei, who has been galloping in the north for many years, has learned Huo Jun's mandarin duck formation through years of research, so he also tosses out of the door in the mountains and forests. Although he didn't dare to call himself 'Mountain Huo Qu', Zhang Fei might be able to praise a Kansai general like Han Sui.

Zhang Fei originally had about 30,000 soldiers and horses under his account, about 20,000 were Wu Chu's soldiers, and 10,000 were Yizhou soldiers and horses. Since entering Hanzhong, many Hanzhong soldiers and horses have been recruited, and two or three thousand people have been killed and injured in the Hanshui confrontation.

Today, Zhang Fei left more than 20,000 people in the camp in Hannan, and Lu Xun, Fu Kuang, Pang Tong and others were in charge to confuse Ma Chao in Hanbei. He himself and Wu Lan led 8,000 elites over the mountains and mountains, from Yangping Pass to Jinniu Road.

Rice cang, Jinniu, Qishan three Shu roads, not completely independent, but each other, from the rice warehouse to take the road to Jinniu, Jinniu can also go to Qishan Road.

The path that Yan Pu said, that is, the road between the rice warehouse and the golden bull, is called the white water road. In history, when Lu You walked this way, he once wrote a poem "Papaya Shop".

Zhang Fei copied the trail and walked, with Yan Pu as the army and the Hannan mountain people as the guide, and most of the soldiers under the tent were good at running in the mountains.

Under the leadership of the mountain people, Zhang Fei's subordinates walked along the rugged mountain road, from the rice cang road to the Jinniu Road, ran for four or five days, and then crossed from the Han River to Han Sui's back.

The summer wind is howling, and the trees rustle all over the mountains like a tide. Between the deep and tortuous mountain roads, 8,000 southern pawns meander and walk, with banners and drums and trumpets silent.

"The general has an order, stop the march!"

The skilled horsemen galloped with the flag and passed on Zhang Fei's military orders.

"Rest!"

Under the orders of the generals of each department, the 8,000-foot knights scattered to rest in the mountains and forests.

At this time, on the mountainside of the mountain in front of the army, Zhang Fei, Wu Lan, and Yan Pu were under the cover of trees, peeking into the battle outside Yangping Pass.

The thick fingers pushed aside the trunk of the tree, revealing a dark face, and the eyes the size of copper bells revealed a hint of cunning.

"General, Han Sui's troops are besieging Yangping Pass there." Yan Pu pointed to the battle that was taking place at the foot of the mountain and said.

Zhang Fei looked for prestige, but saw that on the narrow mountain road, the soldiers and horses under Han Sui's tent were distributed along the mountain road, gathering like ants, resting on the banks of the Hanshui River or resting on the slopes of the mountains. The flag was planted on the ground, and the valley wind blew, and the surrounding sergeants were lax.

At the front of the queue, two or three thousand Longxi elites climbed the mountain range, trying to climb over the mountain ridge on the north side, so as to bypass Yangping Pass. However, Yang Ren stationed troops on the hills, relying on the steepness of the terrain and the strength of the bow and crossbow, and fought bravely with the Longxi soldiers.

Seeing Han Sui's soldiers and horses arranged like this, Wu Lan said excitedly: "General, the old thief soldiers and horses are in front, and the middle and rear sergeants are unprepared. Our army will attack directly from the mountain and will definitely be able to defeat Han Sui. ”

Zhang Fei, who has always been impatient, instead calmed down and said: "Han Sui has won the hearts of the people of Longyouqiang and Di, if he can't defeat the enemy with one move today, he will only repel him." Han Sui can also attract soldiers and horses to attack, and see if he can find Han Sui and look for an opportunity to behead him. ”

Yan Pu glanced at Zhang Fei and secretly sighed that Zhang Fei, who was known for his lack of resourcefulness under Liu Bei's account, was so good, what kind of demeanor was Huo Jun, who presided over the Battle of Chrysostom and burned Jiang Han?

"General!"

The scout came from the mountain and said, "I have found Han Sui's location!" ”

"Where?"

Zhang Fei grabbed the sergeant who almost fell, and asked in a calm voice, "Where is Han Sui?" What is the distribution of the armies? ”

The scout gasped, pointed through the branches, and said, "Han Sui is in the grass pavilion two or three miles away from Yangping Pass, protected by the Lianglong warriors on the left and right, and there is the 'Han' Daxu Banner. The front army has two or three thousand people, the middle army has about four or five thousand people, and the rear army has about three or four thousand people......"

Han Sui stayed in Yan Xing to guard Fu County, and he led 20,000 soldiers to enter Yangping Pass. However, Han Sui did not send out the whole army, but left a few thousand people in the large battalion, which was the rotation of generals in the battle a few days ago, and today Han Sui led more than 10,000 people to attack Yangping Pass.

Zhang Fei squinted his eyes to identify Han Sui's Daxu Banner, and under the guidance of the scouts, he finally found Han Sui's traces. The grass pavilion is surrounded by the Lianglong warriors, and the banner outside the pavilion is huge, and there are golden drum musicians beating the drums.

After a rough estimate, seeing that there was not much difference from what the scout reported, Zhang Fei couldn't help but let go of his heart.

Turning his head to look left and right, Zhang Fei said: "Han Sui's department is near the mountains in the north, and the Han River in the south. ”

"Wu Lan, when the military drum sounds, lead the troops to intercept and kill the army behind the valley. Fei led the headquarters to enter the Chinese army and directly took Han Sui. ”

"General, you have to send someone to inform Yangpingguan. When the time comes, let Yang Ren go out of the customs to cover and kill Han Sui's soldiers and horses. Wu Lan suggested.

"No need!"

Zhang Fei observed the movement at the foot of the mountain and said, "When our army set off, Bo Yan had already ordered someone to arrange it. ”

Saying that, Zhang Fei looked at Yan Pu and said intimately: "The battlefield sword has no eyes, and I will leave a hundred elites and gentlemen." When the drums were beating, Mr. and the sergeant lit a bonfire on the mountain to frighten Han Sui's department. ”

"Thank you, General!" Yan Pu said with gratitude.

As time passed, the sun gradually set to the west, and the clouds on the horizon were dyed red.

In the grass pavilion, Han Sui looked at the scorching battle in front of him, his face was angry, and he scolded: "The siege of Yangping Pass has been more than 20 days, and the sergeants have suffered many casualties. ”

Tian Le said aggrievedly: "General, Yangping Pass should be a natural danger, and our army has attacked many times without success. Ma Chaoyan helped in the battle in the Guannei, and he is not seen now. I'm afraid it wasn't Ma Chao who borrowed Zhang Fei's hand to consume the strength of our army. ”

Han Sui sneered and said, "How dare Ma Chao have such intentions? Now he hopes that our army will enter Hanzhong as soon as possible. ”

Cheng Gongying persuaded: "General, I'm afraid that Ma Chao will be dragged by Zhang Fei and it will be difficult to help our army." If you want to break through the Yangping Pass today, it is not a day's work, and you should think about it in the long run! ”

Han Sui walked down the steps and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers and horses are tired today, and when the troops are withdrawn, and fight tomorrow, whoever dares to be cowardly, I will kill them." ”

"No!" The crowd answered.

Han Sui has been in the army for more than 30 years, and he has never seen any strong winds and waves, he sat back and watched Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, Guo Yan and others fall in Longyou, how did he not know that Yangping Pass was difficult to break. Now he also wants to withdraw his troops, but it is difficult to say it in person, so he has to say it through his own mouth.

Just as Han Sui Mingjin was withdrawing his troops, suddenly there was a violent drum beat among the mountains, and then thick smoke was lit on the mountains.

"What sound?"

Although Han Sui was old, his ears were still good, and he asked left and right.

Cheng Gongying ran out of the grass pavilion, looked for a voice, and said in horror: "General, there is a fire behind the mountain,"

"How can there be a fire?"

"Could it be the enemy?"

Look at the startled birds among the mountains and the flags flying among the trees. The people on the left and right exchanged their heads and said in a panic.

"But Zhang Fei is coming?"

"Impossible!"

Han Sui walked out of the grass pavilion and decisively vetoed: "Zhang Fei is in Yangping Pass, unless he can put on his wings and fly over!" ”

In the next moment, Zhang Fei's demonic laughter came from among the rugged mountains.

"Hahaha~"

"Han Sui old thief, do you know Yanren Zhang Yide?"

"Don't get off your horse and die!"

Han Sui, who was slapped in the face, was not angry, but looked horrified, and said in a lost voice: "Why is Zhang Fei here? ”

"Let's go!"

"General go quickly!"

Han Sui led the war horses on the left and right, beckoned the sergeants on the left and right, turned over and wanted to escape.

At this time, 8,000 elite soldiers rushed down from the mountains, although Han Sui's soldiers and horses were many, but the queue was unprepared. Or like those Qiang soldiers from the Qiang tribe, who have little military discipline, and when they see that the situation is unfavorable, they want to flee, and the sergeants on the mountain roads are in a panic.

This is Zhang Fei's cleverness, the troops were divided into two divisions to raid Han Sui's middle and rear armies, using surprise attacks to cause panic, instead of blocking the retreat of Han Sui's soldiers and horses, forcing the soldiers and horses of Guanxi to fight against the water.

Han Sui didn't care about the retreating front army, turned on his horse, and led hundreds of cronies to withdraw along the direction of Qishan Road.

How could Zhang Fei do what Han Sui intended, holding a long lance, leading two or three hundred horsemen to gallop between the mountain roads.

"Han Sui old thief, leave off!"

Because there were soldiers and horses in the mountains, Han Sui led the cavalry to flee along the bank of the Hanshui River, but when he looked back, he saw Zhang Fei holding a lance from the direction of the grass pavilion, and led the cavalry to chase fiercely, shouting at himself across hundreds of soldiers.

Han Sui wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "There are soldiers and horses blocking Zhang Fei, so leave as soon as possible." ”

However, without waiting for Han Sui to breathe a sigh of relief, the next scene made Han Sui panic again.

The cavalry led by Zhang Fei galloped rapidly, with great momentum and thunder. Just as Han Sui spoke, Zhang Fei took the lead, holding a long lance, pushing away the thorny lance, with the impact of the war horse, the sharp lance squeezed straight into the chest of the Liangzhou soldiers, and warm blood gushed out.

The smell of blood stimulated Zhang Fei's sense of smell, making him more and more excited, pulling out his backhand and continuing to fight left and right, and there was no round of generals everywhere he went.

"Zhang Fei, suffer death!"

In Han Sui's eyes, his subordinate Tian Le did not flee with him, but reflexively killed him, roared angrily, and rode his horse and gun to meet Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was not angry but happy, and smashed Tian Le angrily.

In this way, Tian Le, who is famous for his bravery, couldn't bear his strength, his mouth was numb, and he couldn't keep up with Zhang Fei's follow-up actions. Tian Le watched Zhang Fei change his smash to a pick, and stabbed him in the chest again.

"Ahh

During the change of moves, the tip of Zhang Fei's lance penetrated Tian Le's armor, and the armor cracked and poked into his chest.

Tian Le screamed, fell off his horse, looked at the black-armored fierce general who was galloping away, moved his eyes, blood overflowed from his lips, and then he was powerless to turn his head sideways and died on the battlefield.

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry led by Zhang Fei entered the battle, waving knives and guns, blood flying, trampling on horses, and the extremely brave Liangzhou soldiers under Han Sui's tent were chiseled through by Zhang Fei.

The soldiers arrived in Han Sui!

"Let's go!"

Han Sui saw that Zhang Fei was so brave, he was so frightened that his soul flew away, held the reins, pulled out the horse and left.

"Han Sui old thief, don't get off the horse and die!"

Zhang Fei stared at the white curtain above Han Sui's head, chased after him, shouted in his mouth, took the bow in his hand, and shot several arrows in succession, shooting those from the horse.

Seeing Zhang Fei like this, Han Sui was terrified in his heart, and accelerated his horse's speed even more.

"General, enemy sergeant!" The squire pointed ahead and said.

Han Sui withdrew from the Chinese army to the rear army, but when he saw Wu Lan's department who was ordered to enter the army, he looked at Zhang Fei behind him, and his face was terrified.

"Let's go to the Hanshui Shoal!"

In a panic, Han Sui saw a large number of sergeants flowing through the banks of the Hanshui River, and hurriedly pointed to the Hanshui shoal with a horsewhip, beckoning left and right to flee from that side.

Zhang Fei saw Han Sui fleeing in all directions, he was very anxious, and scolded angrily. But when he saw that Han Sui was surrounded by Sergeant Wu Lan and fled from the shallows of the Han River, he couldn't help laughing with joy.

"Haha!"

Zhang Fei pointed at Han Sui with a whip, laughed demonically, and said: "Han Sui killed himself and ran into the water, and he will be captured by me." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Feiyang whipped his horse, rode his horse on the bank of the Han River, and gradually caught up with Han Sui, who was walking against the water.

Han Sui saw Zhang Fei catching up with him on the riverside, and he was so angry that he twitched his war horse a few times, trying to make it speed up.

The horses were whipped and walked with their hooves raised in the shallow water. Seeing the war horse speeding up and galloping, Han Sui couldn't help but be overjoyed and whipped a few more times.

However, there are many sand and gravels in the shallow water, and the war horses gallop, and the horses' hooves sink into the pebbles. With a plop, the horse's hooves were broken, and even the people and horses rolled into the Han water.

Han Sui was thrown into the Han water, his head was dizzy, he drank a few sips of water, and choked. The old Han Sui couldn't be as strong as the young man, and he got up from the Han River, and he was pressed with a huge war horse body.

Han Sui's body was wet, he raised his head with all his might, poked his mouth and nose out of the Han water, and said with difficulty: "I am willing to surrender to Xuande Gong!" ”

"Smack!"

The war horse struggled to get up, but because the horse's hooves were damaged, he fell again. The heavy body overwhelmed Han Sui again.

Immediately afterwards, the cong cavalry who fled behind him was busy fleeing for his life, and Han Shui was already muddy due to the trampling of people and horses, so he couldn't take care of it at all, so he drove the war horse to trample over Han Sui.

The war horse was trampled, Han Sui's sternum was shattered, and his head, which he had finally raised, fell down, and he was already dead.

Han Sui, who had never thought that he had been crisscrossing the northwest for more than 30 years, was actually killed by Han water and horses' hooves, which is embarrassing and lamentable.

"Han Sui, old thief, where is it?"

Zhang Fei saw that Han Sui was not seen in the chaotic army on the river beach, and scolded angrily.

"General, there!"

From riding to pointing at Hanshui, he saw the white hair floating on the water, and a faint figure could be seen, and there was a war horse with damaged hooves and difficult to get up on his side.

Zhang Fei rode his horse, and the horse's hooves waded through the river to the place where Han Sui died.

Sitting on horseback, Zhang Fei could see through the surface of the Han River, Han Sui's old face, white beard floating on the water, and his wide eyes seemed to tell his unwillingness.

"You can drown!"

Zhang Fei was surprised and disdainful at first, then spat again, and said with a sneer: "The old thief died in Han Shui, not under my lance, but it is cheaper for you." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Fei commanded the left and right, and ordered: "Fan Jiang, cut off Han Sui's head, wrap it in lime, and send it to the lord." ”

"No!" Fan Jiang replied.

When Han Sui died, the war was nearing its end.

When Zhang Fei was looking for an opportunity to kill, Yang Ren saw that the situation outside the customs was very good, and he also led his troops to kill. Wu Lan, Zhang Fei, and Yang Ren besieged and killed Han Sui, and the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou both fled and surrendered.

The three armies killed more than 2,000 people, most of the banks of the Hanshui River were dyed red, and many corpses drifted downstream from Yangping Pass. Beheaded Han Sui and Tian Le, about 2,600 people surrendered, and more than 1,000 horses were captured.

When it was dark, the fighting gradually subsided.

The sergeants were cleaning up the battlefield, picking up armor and weapons on the ground, and moving the captured materials to Yangping Pass.

In the thatched hall, Zhang Fei threw the horse lance to his subordinates, held his belt in his hand, and said with a smile: "Shutan, today's battle is very happy!" ”

Yan Pu, who was watching the battle, went down the mountain and said, "Congratulations to the general for his meritorious service!" ”

Wu Lan held the hilt of the sword in his hand and said with interest: "When I go back from this battle, the general should be able to worship the generals of the four expeditions." ”

"Hey, hey!"

Zhang Fei was scratched by Wu Lan's words to the sensitive point, and the corners of his mouth and eyebrows all revealed joy.

After the Battle of Chrysostom, Huo Jun was promoted to the general of Zhengbei; When Liu Bei succeeded Wu Chu, Guan Yu surrendered to Jiaozhou, pacified Wu Ju, and was promoted to general of Zhengxi.

Now he is one step behind his second brother, and now he has traveled thousands of miles into Hanzhong to destroy Bashu, isn't it just to make a contribution?

Now, with the merit of killing Han Sui and subduing Zhang Lu, he will definitely be promoted to the general of the Four Expeditions.

Zhang Fei touched his beard, laughed a few times, and said: "Ma Chao has not retreated, Hanzhong is not peaceful, how can he be promoted to the general of the four expeditions." ”

"The general is brave, and he deserves to be called the enemy of 10,000 people!" Yan Pu praised.

Zhang Fei waved his hand and said, "The courage of my second brother, General Yun Chang, is especially better than mine. And my brother also has Zhao Zilong and Gan Xingba, two 10,000 enemies, Zilong is good at riding and fighting, and he is superb in lance law, and he is powerful in Jiangdong; Xingba is good at water warfare, crisscrossing rivers, and is famous in Wu Chu. And there are also Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi, Wei Yan, Liuzan and other military generals, all of whom have the courage of ten thousand people. ”

Yan Pu saw that there were so many fierce generals under Liu Bei's account, so he gasped and asked, "What about Huo Zhongmiao who doesn't know how Jinkou broke Cao?" ”

"Haha!"

Zhang Fei held his belt and smiled, and sighed: "Zhong Miao is not known for bravery, but for military strategy. Its military strategy is ten times that of flying! ”

Yan Pu was already in awe of Liu Bei, who was sitting in Wu Chu.

"Han Sui died, and the enemy of Longyou Kou must be leaderless. Now only Hanbei Ma Chao is left, and it is not enough to worry! Wu Lan said.

"Hmm!"

Zhang Fei gathered his mind and paced and asked, "Han Sui was defeated and died, only Ma Chao was killed." I don't know if Gong Miao has a plan to teach me? ”

Yan Pu pondered for a long time and said: "In the past, Han Sui and Ma Teng attacked each other, and Han Sui killed Ma Teng's wife and children. Shi Ma Chao's mother died under Han Sui's knife. Ma and Han have been separated for a long time, and Ma Chao also annexed Han Sui's soldiers and horses. If Ma Chao learns that Han Sui has died, what will the general think about Ma Chao? ”

Zhang Fei stopped, pondered and said, "In this case, let Liangzhou go to Ma Chao's camp, why not?" ”

"The general is wise!" Yan Pu replied.

"Good!"

"Gather the soldiers and horses, follow me into Yangping Pass, and wait for a while to fly and meet that Ma Chao." Zhang Fei said.

Saying that, Zhang Fei was thirsty and ordered: "Prepare a jar of wine!" ”

"The general has a word about not drinking...... Wu Lan said.

Zhang Fei looked displeased, interrupted and said: "If you defeat a strong enemy today, you can't drink and celebrate, wouldn't it be a disappointment!" ”

Here it comes
