Chapter 496: Bad News Follows!

Pubanjin is one of the important gateways in the east of the Guandong, the Yellow River flows through the Shanxi region when the water is turbulent, and there are very few places to cross people, Pubanjin in the east of the river and Fenglingdu in the north of Tongguan are the two most famous ferries.

When Cao Cao conquered Xiliang and Ma Chao, he sent Xu Huang to capture Pubanjin as a ferry, and then crossed the Tongguan to enter the pass.

Pubanjin is so important, naturally it is heavily guarded.

It was none other than Guan Xing who was guarding Pubanjin.

The department is not cannon fodder, but the elite of martial arts.

Together with the state and county soldiers, there were 3,000 men.

But Pubanjin is just a military village, even if it is reinforced, the defense can only be described as worrying, and in the face of the information reported by the scouts, Guan Xing is also entangled.

The importance of Pubanjin goes without saying.

Holding this place, the Wei army could not enter the pass by water.

But how easy is it to hold this place?

"How many enemies are coming?"

Guan Xing hurriedly asked.

"Covering the sky and the sun, the number of people is incalculable, the general, according to the opinion of his subordinates, should retreat to Guanzhong, wait for the enemy to cross the river, and hit half of it, it is the best policy, with our soldiers, if you want to hold Pubanjin, how easy is it?"

Returning to Pubanjin is equivalent to handing over this battleground to others, and the Han army was originally active, but it suddenly became passive.

Is this what Guan Xing wants to see?

Moreover, it was precisely because he contained Pubanjin that the displaced people in Guanzhong would not escape from this place, and those rebellious soldiers would not return to Wei.

If this place falls into the hands of the Wei State, it will be an enemy.

"Hold on, there is a way!"

If you don't touch it, how can Guan Xing retreat?

"General Che Cai's reinforcements are coming in an instant, I don't believe it, the Wei army really dares to attack!"

Guan Xing's subordinates still wanted to persuade him, but Guan Xing had already made up his mind.

"Defend all parts of the camp and wait for the enemy to attack!"

Seeing that Guan Xing was so determined, the general had no choice but to receive the order.

"No!"

And less than three days.

Outside the Pubanjin camp, the traces of the Wei army immediately became obscured.

Looking out of the camp, the black crows and crows are all the banners of the Wei army.

That's at least tens of thousands.

Guan Xing, who was above the walled city, was already frowning.

Pubanjin was surrounded on three sides, and the enemy had no intention of attacking, which made Guan Xing a little flustered inexplicably.

It's night.

The Wei army was attacking in a hurry, Guan Xing didn't even sleep, and hurriedly came to defend, only to find that the Wei army was only feintting.

To the north of the camp, the war drums of the Wei army rumbled, and the soldiers in the village did not dare to rest.

The feint came three times during the night.

Every time the Han army did not dare to slack off, but every time the Wei army saw that the Han army reacted, they did not attack the village.

In the daytime, the Wei army shouted in front of the camp, and the insults were endless, that is, Guan Xing was not a reckless person, and he was almost angry to go out of the village to fight.

In this way, three days later, under the magic attack of the Wei army, the Han army in the Pubanjin camp was a little nervous.

His grandmother's, who led the soldiers?

Have a kind of mentality of coming to do a fight?

By the fourth day, the Wei army was beating drums as usual, and the Han army no longer wanted to pay attention.

Even if Guan Xing urged the generals to defend the village, but there were more than a dozen feints in front, and the Han army was played by the Wei army.

The story of the wolf coming is familiar, and the Wei army's repeated feints also made the Han army in the Pubanjin camp react a beat slower.

The number of feints by the Wei army increased, and the reaction of the Han army became slower and slower.

In the end, even the Wei army beat his drums, what should the Han army sergeant do.

Guan Xing was speechless.

However.

Paralyzing the nerves of the Han army was Sima Yi's goal.

Danger is also hidden.

In the middle of the night, the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and it was pitch black all around.

Man is meant to rest.

The Wei army's strategy of exhausting the enemy, the Han army also reacted, that is, one of the fortresses was guarded, and the rest rested and nourished their spirits, so that they could defend the walled city for a long time.

In the Han army camp of Pubanjin, most of the soldiers were already asleep, and only sporadic patrols shuttled in the dark, and their footsteps were particularly clear in the silent night.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, like the thunder before a storm, which shook people's hearts.

Like a ghost, the Wei army launched a surprise attack in the night.

Their figures loomed in the darkness, the sound of the clash of iron armor and the cold light of their swords added a bit of solemnity to the night.

Guan Xing, the guard of the Han army, was immersed in sleep at the moment.

"What sound?"

The sudden shouting of killing woke him from his sleep, and he grabbed the weapon around him sharply.

At the same time, the soldiers shouted loudly to meet the battle.

"But the Wei army is coming? Hurry up! ”

However, the Han army's reaction was surprisingly slow, and it took a while for the military order to be issued before the Han army reacted, and the Wei army stormed the camp, and the Han army in the village was unable to organize effective resistance for a while.

Bang~

The gate of the wall was breached in an instant under the onslaught of the Wei army, and in the firelight, the figure of the Wei army poured into the camp like a flood.

"Rush~"

"Kill!"

The gate of the village was broken, and the Han army in the village finally reacted.

One by one, they came out to fight the Wei army.

Guan Xing brandished his weapon and took the lead in a desperate struggle with the Wei army that rushed into the camp.

"Defend the city!"

"Defend the city!"

Every swing of his sword was accompanied by the screams of the enemy and the splash of blood.

However, the Wei army was outnumbered, and they continued to pour into the camp like a tidal wave, and the Han army gradually fell into a bitter battle.

Guan Xing's personal soldiers fell one by one, and he was also injured in many places, and blood stained his battle robe.

But he did not flinch, still fought bravely to kill the enemy, and several times beat the Wei army that rushed into the camp out of the camp.

However, the situation was irreversible, and from the moment the Wei army broke through the walled gate, the defeat of the Han army was a foregone conclusion.

In other words, it is impossible to hold the camp of Pubanjin.

The right time, place and people.

Pubanjin camp is not occupied, how can it be held?

"General, withdraw, Pu Banjin can't hold it, leave it to be useful, and avenge today's revenge in the future!"

"This Pubanjin is a battleground for soldiers!" Guan Xing's eyes were particularly unwilling.

"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood. General, offended! ”

Under the forced pull of his generals, Guan Xing reluctantly abandoned the camp and fled across the river by boat with the remaining soldiers.

The waves on the river were turbulent, and the wind roared fiercely, as if wailing for this defeat.

Looking back at the Pubanjin camp, the flames soared into the sky, and the shouts of killing were deafening.

The banner of the Wei army fluttered in the firelight, and in Guan Xing's eyes, it was so dazzling.

The enemy this time was different from the place where the Han army dealt with it in the past.

This cotton-like tactic made his bravery nowhere to show.

It's a bad loss.

Guan Xing stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the camp that was gradually moving away, his heart was full of grief and helplessness.

"Guan Xing, I am ashamed of Your Majesty, my Highness, and my trust in the Che Cavalry General."

He knew what this defeat meant for the Han army.

As soon as Pubanjin was lost, the Wei army could cross the river into the pass, if he really detoured to Tongguan and cut off the grain route of Tongguan, Tongguan would be in danger.

However, the only thing he can do at this moment is to flee the battlefield as soon as possible with the remnants of the defeated generals, and to preserve his strength for the next day.

Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers.

If you lose this time, you can win it back next time!

However.

Pubanjin was broken by the Wei army, which was only the first bad news Liu Chan gave.

And another bad news, but it is even more unfavorable for today's Han Kingdom, and it also puts Liu Chan in a dilemma. (End of chapter)
